Xia Li wanted to see Hu Xian'er, so she promised the three jumpers some benefits, first of all, the parents of the three jumpers, Xia Li would find someone to pick them up, settle down, and would not let Hu Xian'er find them again, and the three jumpers were not allowed to leave the capital, and they would have to wait for Xia Li to see Hu Xian'er before leaving, or decided to stay.

The lives of the three jumpers were saved by Xia Li, how could there be any unwillingness, as soon as the three jumpers returned to their side, they arranged for someone to pass on the news, saying that they were back and were selling antiques.

There was no class the next day, Xia Li thought about it, packed some clothes and drove back to her yard.

Back in the courtyard, Xia Li placed the water bird and the newly purchased statue of Water Moon Guanyin on the table.

Both objects have an oval mark underneath, indicating that they are from the same person's hand.

Xia Li sighed and put away the two things, and then practiced in the courtyard, until Tianming stood on the roof of the house and absorbed the Ziyang and East Qi of the East, and then he jumped and shuttled on the roof of the city, and arrived at Master Wu's courtyard in three or four minutes.

It's just that there is a formation in the sky above this courtyard, Xia Li went around to the main entrance, and after knocking on the door, she saw someone coming to open the door after a while.

Master Wu was also stunned when he saw Xia Li: "Didn't you say that you won't be back this week?"

Xia Li didn't explain, after the two went in, Xia Li didn't speak, and directly took out a pot of stewed chicken soup and put it on the gas stove, and started a ball of noodles here, and slashed it against the boiling water with a knife, and the thin dough sheet like a cicada's wings swished into the boiling water Zhihong, and after a while, Xia Li fished out a big bowl, poured chicken soup, sprinkled a green onion, and then tore a chicken leg and put it on the side of the bowl and said to Master Wu, who was swallowing saliva: "The chicken won't be torn off, can you eat it directly?"

Master Wu took the bowl and snorted and ate it, Xia Li swished out another bowl, and the two of them took the big bowl without talking and started eating.

Xia Li ate one bowl was enough, but Master Wu felt that he hadn't eaten enough, so Xia Li cut a big bowl again, tore off the chicken with his hand, and handed over a spoonful of chili peppers.

After eating, the two sat on the edge of the stone table in the courtyard, and Xia Li watched Master Wu make tea and talked about what she saw yesterday.

Hearing the toad that could burst out of venom, Master Wu's brows furrowed, and Xia Li didn't ask when she saw this, and directly told the follow-up of the matter.

After Xia Li finished speaking, the two of them drank a round of tea, and Xia Li took the teapot and began to brew a second round.

Master Wu said: "Thirty years ago, I went down to an ancient tomb, and I really saw this kind of toad that can burst out with venom. ”

Xia Li took a sip of the tea she had brewed before asking, "What did the ancient tomb you saw look like at that time?"

Master Wu's brows furrowed slightly, and he sighed and said, "I accepted three disciples before I collected Peimo, and that time I went to the tomb to collect the corpses of my three apprentices!"

Xia Li's eyes widened: "Collect the corpse?"

Master Wu took a sip of hot tea and felt warm in his heart before saying: " I have accepted a total of four apprentices in my life, the eldest and the second are all from the city, have jobs, before and after because of some things cut off contact, the third is I met in a farmer's house temporarily, at that time he was only seven years old, the qualifications are particularly good, so I took him up the mountain, and then because of the war, I have some things to deal with, so I let him go down the mountain by himself, I didn't expect this guy to learn well, not long after going down the mountain, he relied on his own kung fu and people to do the tomb robbery. ”

Xia Li poured hot tea for Master Wu again, and after drinking it, Master Wu continued: "When I came back, I learned that this guy had done this business and went to his house to find him, and then our master and apprentice broke off the relationship from then on, and seeing that he was just robbing the tomb and not hurting people's lives at will, he let him go, and then many years later, one day, a kid climbed the mountain and waded to find my mountain. ”

Xia Li asked, "Is it a child?"

Master Wu said: "It's a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy, and it is said that my third apprentice who has severed ties has not returned for three years, and I hope I can help find it." ”

Xia Li nodded, and Master Wu continued: "I went down the mountain, found some people I knew to help ask, and found that he went to a cemetery, and then never came back, so I went to look for it, the cemetery was very strange, and there were fat Taoist priests and old women who went with me at that time." ”

Xia Li raised her eyebrows, but she didn't expect that several people would still have such contacts.

Master Wu continued: "The cemetery is particularly strange, first surrounded by a tomb made of terracotta figurines, then a circular river in the middle, and the coffin of the tomb owner is placed in the middle. ”

Xia Li hurriedly asked, "Where is this tomb?"

Master Wu said: "Near the Great Xing'an Mountains!"

Xia Li frowned, so far away, would there be any connection between the two tombs?

Here, Master Wu continued: "At that time, I didn't dare to get close and looked around, but it turned out that there were all black bones around, and I didn't know which one belonged to the third child. ”

Later, Master Wu and Fat Dao Chang got all the bones out, and after cremation, they found a good place to bury them directly.

After the two of them finished drinking tea, Master Wu smiled and said, "Idle is idle, let's get some tea?"

Xia Li smiled and followed to the back yard, in addition to a few fruit trees in the yard, there were six tea trees, two of which were Xia Li's, and the rest were Master Wu's, Xia Li looked at Master Wu and didn't care about the tea trees, but took out a low tree stump wrapped in plastic wrap from a warehouse in the back.

Seeing Xia Li step forward to look at it, he smiled and said: "Two days ago, I went to Xiangshan in the capital, and when I turned around, I found a tea tree with a big red robe.

Xia Li stepped forward and smelled it, the age of this tree is not small, but the spirit is not good, it is not caused by Master Wu's dug up, it is caused by the lack of nutrients, coupled with aging, the two of them put the sapling with the mound into the soil, and before putting it in, Xia Li buried a ball of powder into it.

After being buried, Xia Li began to water, and the two watched as the dwarf tree slowly grew up, grew branches, and then built, and continued to water after building, and gradually grew into a stump more than one meter high, surrounded by a large oval, full of branches and leaves.

The two of them began to pick, the old and the tender ones were to be picked, and after the picking, they were watered again, and after a toss, the two of them picked the four large boxes of tea leaves, of course, they were also separated, the tender ones were separated, and the old ones were also separated.

Da Hong Pao is much more troublesome to make than green tea, and it needs to be dried several times, so there is no need for Xia Li to care, just help Master Wu to dry the tea leaves and then jump back to his yard a few times.

As a result, Xia Li felt a strong momentum coming from the gate of the courtyard before she arrived at the gate of the courtyard, and she was startled, and rushed towards the side door, but the unfamiliar energy actually chased after her.

Xia Li looked at the direction of the person while running, and after seeing it clearly, Xia Li stopped, and saw a tall man wearing a gray ragged robe running out of the deepest part of the alley.

This man is none other than the long-lost Dang Baolai!

Along with Bora, there is also Bora's master, the head of the Ming Truth.

Xia Li saw that Ming Zhendao's mouth was slightly open, and turned her head to look at Dang Baolai, who was standing next to her with a smile and a dazzle, and couldn't help twitching the corners of her mouth.

Are these two beggar disciples or monks, why are they dressed so worn, their faces look good, but the clothes on their bodies are too shabby.

Daoist Ming Zhen clasped his hands together and said with a smile: "Master Xia, I'm bothered!"

Xia Li felt a little bad, and when the two of them finished washing up and eating three bowls of noodles after entering the door, Daoist Mingzhen stood up and took a deep breath: "This is really a treasure land, it's so suitable for cultivation, Baolai, let's live here for a while, right?"

Baolai drank the sour soup in the bowl in one go, and sighed with satisfaction before saying, "Well, it's good to live here with the fairy cousin, and there is food, there are the eldest young master and the eldest lady!"

Both of them came, Xia Li couldn't drive them away, sighed, drove the two to the supermarket, bought a lot of food and clothes, a lot of inside and out, and then returned to the small courtyard, Xia Li rolled up his sleeves again, and gave the two of them a large pot of mutton, and after it was cooked, he fished out two large pieces of cooked meat and put them on.

After settling the two masters and apprentices, Xia Li drove to school, and on the way, Xia Li received a call from Teacher Yang, asking Xia Li to come over if she was free.

Xia Li agreed and drove the car directly to the teacher's residence, and as soon as the car was parked, the door opened, and Professor Yang greeted him in person, with a smile on his face, the roots of his hair that were originally a little gray also turned black, his face was flushed, and he looked very good.

As soon as he saw Xia Li, he smiled and said, "Xia Li, thank you, I seem to be several years younger when I sleep this night!"

Xia Li opened the trunk with a smile and carried a wicker basket from inside, in which were two pears, two large pink peaches, and a piece of cooked mutton.

Professor Yang, who was originally going to say something, smiled when he saw what Xia Li brought, and then said, "You just came, and you brought something!"

Xia Li smiled and said: "These pears and peaches are cultivated by my master with a special method, which are particularly good for the body, and mutton is also a special kind of mutton meat, you remember to eat them separately!"

Professor Yang smiled and nodded, and as soon as the two of them entered the door, they saw a girl in a pink velvet coat who was sitting on the sofa swoop to the room that was closed that day.

Professor Yang looked at his daughter and explained to Xia Li with a smile: "My Doudou Tebbi is shy!"

Xia Li frowned slightly, this girl looked a little strange, looked around, Xia Li raised her eyebrows and said, "What about Aunt Chen?"

Professor Yang explained: "Today she has a half-day off!"
