Chapter 49 The Dying Old Man
Shi Feizhe was indeed depressed. He didn't expect that any broken house he picked up would have an owner.
Or the kind that someone came back to after decades!
As for burying something with your name engraved on it in my house, it was of course a self-deprecating remark.
After all, he was not Captain Jia, who was unreasonable.
"Old man, the silver for the repair is a total of fifteen taels. After you pay it, you can live here. I'll find another one." Shi Feizhe said:
"Anyway, you live here by yourself, and it's about the same amount of silver if you find someone to fix it up."
"Uh... It's not expensive. It's just that I don't have money!" The old man said awkwardly.
"No money? You didn't watch me at the foot of the mountain when I came. Seeing that I was almost done, you came here to ask for the advantage, right?" Shi Feizhe questioned.
"Young man, I see that you are also a martial artist. Why don't I teach you a set of martial arts to pay for the fifteen taels of silver?" The old man said in negotiation.
"No! I have enough martial arts, I can't chew too much!" Shi Feizhe refused.
Learning unfamiliar martial arts is risky, not to mention that martial arts that cost fifteen taels of silver, can it be a good martial arts?
"My martial arts are very powerful!"
"You won't learn it even if it's powerful!"
"Then I can't help it, I don't have money! If we fight, you can't beat me." The old man smiled and said.
He really didn't have money, and he didn't need it.
"... For fifteen taels of silver, is it worth it?" Shi Feizhe was a little speechless.
The old man's grab just now didn't show any cultivation. I think his cultivation is not too high, otherwise he wouldn't play rogue for a little money!
In the rivers and lakes, how can a master be without money!
Besides, the old man is so old, relying on swordsmanship to fight, he may not have no advantage!
The advantage is mine!
Shi Feizhe encouraged himself.
Shi Feizhe couldn't swallow his anger because the old man was playing like this!
"Then I'll ask the old man for a few tricks!" Shi Feizhe picked up the rusty sword, which he bought casually in the town for sword practice, just for sword practice.
He made a gorgeous sword flower and said, "I'm only slightly good at swordsmanship, so it's not too much to use a weapon, right?"
"Oh? You know swordsmanship?" The old man looked at Shi Feizhe with interest, then he put his right hand together to make a sword finger, and in Shi Feizhe's astonishment, the true qi turned into a sword.
"Come on, let me have fun!!"
Shi Feizhe looked at the long sword transformed by the true qi, which was about three or four feet long and emitted a faint blue glow in the sun. Combined with the old man's words "Let me have fun", how could he not know that he had met a big boss.
"Ahem... I love to have seizures at a young age. Sometimes I don't know what I said when my mouth twitches! I had an attack just now, and the old man pretended not to hear it." Shi Feizhe decisively admitted his defeat.
When you are in the martial arts world, you must follow your heart!
This is the true meaning of martial arts!
"I'll pack my luggage and leave right away!" Shi Feizhe said hurriedly.
Isn't it just fifteen taels of silver? He doesn't want it!
Damn it, I can still meet a big boss even if I hide in the mountains!
It's really bad luck!
"Wait!" the old man said again.
"Huh?" Shi Feizhe was alert instantly.
What's going on? Do you really want to kill him to silence him? Or do you want to embezzle his property?
"With my temper when I was young, if you dared to draw your sword against me, I'm afraid you would have broken into several pieces by now." The old man looked at Shi Feizhe, flipped his hand and withdrew the sword of true qi, he continued:
"Now that the old lady is old, her temper has improved a lot."
"It's also thanks to you that you tidied this place up, so that when I came back, I actually had some impressions of my memory."
"If you don't mind the crowd, you can also live in this courtyard."
"I can't live here for too long, at least two or three years, at most four or five years, this courtyard will still be yours after all." The old man finished speaking in one breath.
"Why do you only live here for a few years?" Shi Feizhe asked.
"Simple! Because I'm dying soon." The old man said casually.
"Die?" Shi Feizhe was puzzled. This old man's sword of true qi was so easy and casual. At least he must be a master of the Zhoutian realm, or even a master of the real person realm, how could he die so easily.
"The life span of martial artists in the world is ultimately limited. What's so strange about death?" The old man looked at Shi Feizhe and said strangely.
"Could it be, 149 years old?" Shi Feizhe said. He seemed to have heard a blind man say that a warrior's life span is no more than 149 years old.
Even the invincible Yuan Jiuchong!
Thinking of the "Zhongjiuyuan" from top to bottom of the wooden box.
This old man is called Chongjiuyuan, could it be...
No, no! The world's number one master owed him 15 taels of silver.
The Jianghu is too magical!
Is there still morality in the Jianghu?
If the name is reversed, it is still the same person, then Fan Jianqiang is not...
This old man's name is probably a coincidence!
"Not bad! Young man, although you are a wild man, you have some knowledge!" The old man said: "My life span is about to run out, and I just want to spend a few years here peacefully."
Shi Feizhe thought about it. With the old man's cultivation, it would be better to crush him than a grasshopper. After so much trouble, he must have no ill will towards him.
It would be a bit troublesome to go over the mountains and find a remote place!
"Okay! Old man, let's squeeze together! I'll clean it up. You live in the east room and I live in the west room!" Shi Feizhe said to the old man.
"Okay! The sculpture in the middle lobby has also been flattened. It will be more spacious if you put some sundries in it." The old man said.
"What kind of statue is that!" Shi Feizhe was very curious about the half-collapsed clay statue.
He only kept half of it at the beginning and did not flatten it. Now it's a bit crowded for two people to live in three rooms. After the clay statue is flattened, the two of them will live in a more spacious place.
"That~ is a statue of the God of Wealth." The old man thought about it and said with a smile.
"Huh? This small temple actually worships the God of Wealth?"
"When the master was here, the one worshipped was Zhenwu Emperor. Later, the incense was not so popular, so the master told the people down the mountain that Zhenwu Emperor was also the God of Wealth, and the God of Wealth! Only with martial arts can there be wealth, and only with wealth can there be martial arts! So the incense gradually became popular, and I and the master didn't starve to death."
The old man talked about his childhood with a nostalgic look on his face.
What happened a hundred years ago seemed to have happened just yesterday.
I guess those who worshipped the God of Wealth at that time have all turned to dust!
Now, it's my turn!
"By the way, I don't know what to call you, little brother?" The old man suddenly remembered that he didn't know what the young man in front of him was called.
"My name is Shi Feizhe!"
"Huh? Shi Feizhe?" The old man thought for a moment and said, "It is said that an old devil appeared in the north, causing trouble for the entire Qiuyang City, making the entire Qiuyang City a mess. That old devil is called Shi Feizhe."
"It is a coincidence that we have the same name!" Shi Feizhe denied with a dark face.
It has been half a year, who is still throwing dirty water on me!
"Come to think of it, that old devil is said to love to pretend to be young and deceive people! I have seen many people pretending to be young, but none of them have such clear and stupid eyes as yours! You are definitely not an old devil." The old man shook his head and said.
"I am not an old devil at all! The old man is really wise..." Shi Feizhe finally met someone who did not think he was a devil. He was about to flatter the other party, but suddenly found something wrong.
No, old man, you might as well make it clear!
What do you mean by clear and stupid?
If I can beat you, I must beat your dog head!
Having said that, an old man and a young man settled down on this mountain.
One was waiting to die, the other was hiding.
Hiding was to avoid hiding.
