Chapter 33: Reunion
The husband and wife rushed all the way, and the eagerness in their hearts was overflowing. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
At that time, the village was hit by a very severe drought, and there were only three layers of crops left in the field, which was really not enough to support the family. Some people in the village have already begun to sell their sons and daughters, but their daughters are the meat of their hearts, so how can they be willing to sell them to others? Besides, if they meet a vicious person, their daughter's life will be lost.
Fortunately, there is no endless road in the sky, and one day I heard in the town that an immortal gate far away was going to recruit disciples, holding this glimmer of hope. The husband and wife sold all their belongings, worked hard and tortured all the way, and finally took more than a month to send their daughter to Jianmen. I don't want my daughter to become an immortal in the future, just want to be able to have food and clothing. I didn't expect to be stupid after Jianmen Mountain, there were a lot of people, and there were probably four or five hundred thousand people at the scene, all of whom had an ordinary urban population. Most of them come with their families. The husband and wife were suddenly heartbroken, how could so many daughters have a chance? If they could not successfully enter the Sword Gate, then it would be a catastrophe for this Sanzhikou family. Because the husband and wife have already given everything they have when they come here, this small family can no longer afford any failure at this time.
Looking at the eliminators who were constantly disgraced, their faces were like ashes, and they passed by crying and screaming. The hearts of the husband and wife have sunk to the bottom, and the only ray of light in the darkness seems to be getting weaker and weaker, and it is about to be extinguished.
finally survived until the next day, and it was his daughter's turn. The husband and wife accompanied Xiao Yurou to the site of testing the fairy root with apprehension. I saw a transparent stone in front of me, and at the request of a disciple, Xiao Yurou slowly stretched out her hand on the test stone. The moment the hand touched the stone, the stone emitted a faint light. When the disciples on the side announced the passage with expressionless faces, the husband and wife were so excited that they almost fainted, and the happiness came too suddenly, and they were at a loss. Although this is only the first test, at least there is hope, and it is the hope of life.
Next, the daughter also worked hard, and her luck was good. finally passed the test called the "Forest of Trials" without danger, and at the same time, the husband and wife hugged their heads excitedly and cried.
After Yurou entered the Sword Gate, the husband and wife took the ten taels of silver given by the Sword Gate, and returned to the small village, looking forward to their daughter's return. This is more than ten years, but the emperor lives up to his painstaking efforts, and his daughter is still back after all.
Passed through the doorway, which was surrounded by everyone, and finally entered his own hut. I saw Xiaobao eating and playing with toys on the ground on the side. At this time, there were five men and women in the house with good looks and extraordinary temperament, but they didn't know which one was their daughter, and both of them were extremely worried. Aunt Zhang nervously pinched her husband's thigh on the side to relieve the tension in her heart. And Zhang Tiegen was already nervous and couldn't feel the pain.
Everyone was joking in the house, but they saw a man and a woman enter the house and look at everyone with a worried face. The man had a beard and looked loyal and honest, while the woman had a turban tied around her head and many wrinkles on her face.
Yurou was the first to see it, and there was a joke just now, but when she saw the middle-aged couple in front of her for the first time, she was instantly stunned. Xiaobao, who was playing on the ground, saw the couple, ran over, and called affectionately, "Dad, mother." ”
But Zhang Tiegen and his wife still stayed where they were, as if they didn't hear it. Xiaobao looked at his father and mother suspiciously, if he had usually picked himself up, Xiaobao was long, Xiaobao was short, but why did he ignore himself today?
Zhang Tiegen looked at the girl in front of him for a while before he cautiously asked, "Are you Yurou?" The timidity when he spoke could even be heard by everyone next to him.
"I ...... I am. Yurou replied with the same apprehension, and then stared at the man in front of her: "Are you your father?"
"Eun, I am. Daughter, you're finally back!" Zhang Tiegen finished speaking, he couldn't cry anymore, and Aunt Zhang next to him also cried.
Yurou looked at the woman who was squatting on the ground and crying, and knew her identity without looking: "Mother, get up, don't cry." Don't you see I'm coming back?"
Aunt Zhang wiped her tears and kept saying, "It's good to come back, it's good to come back." ”
It took a long time for the husband and wife to calm down.
Zhang Tiegen pulled Yurou over, pointed at Xiaobao and said, "This is your younger brother, who was born after you left." Saying that, he said to Xiaobao on the side: "Xiaobao, call my sister quickly." ”
"Hello sister. Xiaobao stepped forward and shouted very obediently.
Yurou gently stroked Xiaobao's head and said, "Xiaobao is the most well-behaved, just tell my sister what you want in the future." ”
Xiaobao laughed when he heard this, revealing the teeth that had lost two of his front teeth.
When Aunt Zhang saw it, she patted Xiaobao and said, "What are you smiling at, thank you sister soon." ”
"Thank you, sister. ”
Aunt Zhang looked at Yurou with satisfaction after seeing it, and asked with hope, "Daughter, you won't leave when you come back this time, right?"
"This ......" Yurou was silent for a while, not knowing how to say it.
Tiansheng looked at the atmosphere and interjected awkwardly: "Auntie, this time Yurou came down the mountain to practice." I'm afraid I can't delay too much time. ”
"Oh, really?" Aunt Zhang was disappointed for a while.
Zhang Tiegen, who was next to him, saw his daughter-in-law like this, and hurriedly said: "Isn't it about to celebrate the New Year? Then let's leave after the New Year, anyway, it won't be delayed for a few days." As he spoke, he bumped his daughter-in-law with his hand.
"Uh, yes, yes. You are Yurou's fellow disciples, so it's better to spend the New Year here, and it's not too late to go. And so that my father and I can treat you well."
Everyone had no objection after hearing this, after all, Yurou had just reunited with her family, and she really needed to get together.
Yurou's parents were also extremely happy, and said on the spot that they were going to the town to cut meat and drink, but everyone hurriedly stopped them. After all, it's not too early, and it takes a lot of time to go back and forth to town. In the end, under the recommendation of Innate, He Shu bought it, which saved a lot of time. Then under the smile of everyone's "ill intentions", He Shu set off with a bitter gourd face and Edgeworth.
There was a little smoke in the thatched house, and everyone also helped Yurou's parents to do things, chopping wood, and cooking. I am very fond of this atmosphere full of life.
Soon, He Shu came with meat and wine. And Xuanyuan Yao, who went out, also returned. At this time, the villagers watching outside Yurou's house had almost dispersed, after all, it was time to eat, and everyone had to cook and eat.
Aunt Zhang fried more than a dozen side dishes and filled the small table. Everyone was eating around the small table, and it felt extraordinarily fragrant. Zhang Tiegen ate vegetables and drank at the same time. After a drink, Yurou will be very intimate on the side, and soon a little drunk. chattered about Yurou's childhood, how naughty she was when she was a child, and what happened when the family went to Jianmen in the drought that year. As he spoke, he began to cry. Naturally looking at this handful of old uncles, I also felt that it was not easy for him. No matter how hard life is, no matter how difficult life is, there is often such a person who will support the family.
It wasn't until night that the people finished the meal. Yurou stayed at home, presumably after not seeing her for so long, and there were still many things to talk to her parents. However, because there were not enough rooms, everyone couldn't stay, and they wanted to go to the town to find an inn, but they were kept by the enthusiastic village chief. He said that everyone wanted to live in his house, because there were not enough rooms, and he moved out of his house, which made everyone embarrassed.
The enthusiasm was difficult to refuse, and everyone finally lived in the village chief's house. This made the village chief happy, and he looked at the village chief and didn't know what he was happy about. Naturally, I don't know the purpose of the village chief leaving everyone to live, just to let the family be contaminated with some fairy energy.
The sky was dark, there was no moon and no stars. The cold wind whistled in my ears, and the whole village was silent. At this time, the villagers were all sleeping at home, and some of the daughters-in-law hugged their daughters-in-law tightly, and those who did not wrapped themselves tightly in the quilts covering their bodies.
Born without sleep, he slowly walked out of the room, jumped lightly, and came to the roof. But he was surprised, because there was another person on the roof, and when he got closer, he found that it was Xuanyuan Yao.
"Why can't you sleep?" asked Tiansheng.
Xuanyuan Yao turned his head and glanced at the natural birth behind him, then sat up again, staring at the dark distance with his eyes, and was silent.
Tiansheng walked forward slowly, sat down next to him gently, and continued: "I can't sleep either, do you guess I can't sleep because of the same reason?"
"Oh......" Xuanyuan Yao suddenly became interested, and the corners of his mouth hooked up and smiled: "You don't know why I can't sleep, so it's a bit ridiculous to ask like this." ”
"And what if I know?"
"I know you, I say, there is no need to beat around the bush. Xuanyuan Yao said in a very kind tone.
"Everything in the world is inseparable from a love word. The word love is nothing more than family, friendship, and love. But looking at your arrogant appearance, I'm afraid you don't care about friendship, and love is even more impossible, I'm afraid that there is no one you can see. In the end, I'm afraid there is only family affection. You should have seen Yurou's family reunited, and started to miss home and relatives again! Do you think what I said is right or not?"
"Even if you're right, so what?" Xuanyuan Yao tilted her head and asked arrogantly and coldly.
"No, if I'm right, it just means that the reason why I can't sleep is the same. But I think I can name something else. ”
Xuanyuan Yao stared at Tiansheng and sneered: "Then you can talk about it." ”
Tiansheng said leisurely: "I just said that you want to be a relative, but who is this relative?"
As soon as these words came out, Xuanyuan Yao, who was originally expressionless, immediately showed a surprised expression, and looked at Tiansheng with an undoubted expression. When I saw this expression, I already knew that my speculation was not far from ten.
In fact, Xuanyuan Yao's heart at this time was even more turbulent than her appearance, this secret had been hidden in her heart for a long time, and she had never told others, how did she know it in this life? Thinking of this, her face became even colder: "How do you know, no, it should be that you can't know this secret." ”
"A secret is a secret because one day it will be known by others, even the biggest secret. But ......" The corners of his mouth hooked up when he said this, revealing a smile: "But you didn't want to deliberately hide this matter, otherwise you wouldn't continue to use the surname Xuanyuan." ”
"You know this secret because of this surname? There are so many people with the surname Xuanyuan in the world, why do you suspect that I am the princess of the imperial kingdom?"
"There are indeed many people with the surname Xuanyuan in the world, but the most prominent one is the Central Plains Imperial Family. The ten countries of the Central Plains are the most powerful among the countless countries on the mainland in terms of economy, culture, and military, and should be regarded as an example for the human race. And that day, in the Jiang Palace, when Emperor Gu Zhanfeng talked about Xuanyuan Gu, you behaved very unnaturally. But because the Central Plains is too far away from Jiang Guo, I didn't think much about it at the time, but I got along with you these days and got to know you. I think the reason why you are arrogant and look down on Zhuo Yue, Yurou, and even Jianmen is because you are really related to the Central Plains Imperial Kingdom. ”
"Haha. Xuanyuan Yao laughed twice, looked at Tiansheng and said, "You are indeed smart, and you are amazingly talented, you have not worked hard to cultivate, and you have already reached the seventh level of qi cultivation in just a few months." This talent is almost catching up with my imperial brother. ”
"Brother Huang?"
"It's the Xuanyuan Gu you said who destroyed the Chen State and is now attacking Dachu. ”
When it came to Xuanyuan Gu, he naturally saw a different look in Xuanyuan Yao's eyes, which was extremely proud. What kind of hero should a person like Xuanyuan Yao be who can be so admired and yearned for so much? Suddenly, I naturally wanted to see this man called Xuanyuan Gu.
Xuanyuan Yao glanced at Tiansheng, then jumped lightly and jumped from the roof to the ground. A voice came from the ground: "You are indeed very smart and talented, but I'm afraid there are things you don't know, right?" said with a smug smile, the voice was not loud, but he was born to hear every word clearly.
"What's the matter?"
"You're afraid you don't know that someone likes you, do you?"
The second monk was confused, and just wanted to ask clearly, but when he saw that Xuanyuan Yao had already walked into the room, he gave up. But who is the person she said likes herself? After thinking about it for a long time, she didn't have a clue, so she shook her head and went back to her room to rest.
