Whirring the winter cold, the old branches sit down, the tea mist is misty, and the small courtyard is idle.

After everyone woke up from the third fruit position of the old monk and the reincarnation of the Buddha, the conversation box was out of control.

You say a word, I say a word, the elders speak, and occasionally the juniors can't help but interject a sentence or two.

Where is there still the previous restraint, not presumptuous, in the blink of an eye it became a tea party.

Speak quickly, talk about anecdotes, talk about ancient and modern, and talk about cultivation........

Saying this, the atmosphere is lively, occasionally contemplative, occasionally amazed, and occasionally joking......... And so the time passed.

When it was almost noon, Jiang Xiaobai suddenly looked up at the sky, thoughtful, and then took advantage of the idle talk to call the deer who was playing alone outside the small courtyard.

"Girl, come here. ”

He got up, said something to everyone, and then walked to the gate of the courtyard and beckoned to the deer who was holding some snacks and drawing on the snow in front of the courtyard with his shoes.

"Brother, what's wrong?"

The little girl was very obedient, stopped, and then ran over on the snow chips, raised her head, blinked her cute eyes, and there were snacks and crumbs in her mouth.

"On the second day of the new year, you go to Grandpa Chen's house, huh?" he smiled on his face and asked the little girl's opinion softly.

According to the tradition, the second year of junior high school is to go out to pay New Year's greetings to relatives, the brother and sister have no relatives, and the old Chen family is a neighbor, but it is called.

"Okay, when my brother was away, Grandpa Chen once took me to my new home for the New Year. ”

The little girl nodded happily, and suddenly her voice weakened as she spoke, remembering what she had been unhappy about before.

I heard Hatsune mention this before, the year he just had an accident, Chen Lao personally came to pick up the deer during the New Year,

It is precisely because of this that Jiang Xiaobai thought in his heart, it is better to let the girl go.

Some cause and effect, whether you see through it or not, are still two different things.

"Then I'll let Sister Shuiyue take you there, okay?"

He continued.

"Why doesn't my brother go with Xiaolu, Grandpa Chen will be very happy to see my brother. ”

The little girl's big eyes were full of puzzlement.

"Well, last time my brother went, this time there were guests at home. ”

Jiang Xiaobai leaned over and pinched her cute little face dotingly, and said gently.

"Well, fawn got it. ”

The little girl smacked her mouth and agreed.

To say, this girl didn't let Jiang Xiaobai worry much, except for some playfulness at the age of a child, she has always listened to her brother's words and is understanding.

"Good. ”

Jiang Xiaobai smiled, took her little hand into the courtyard, and then passed the message to Li Shuiyue, who was sitting in the crowd.

Li Shuiyue walked over.

"Miss Shuiyue bothered you this time, and took the girl to Chen's house to pay New Year's greetings, it was appropriate for Hatsune to go, but she was preparing a meal to entertain guests, so I bothered you, that family is not far from Sanshui County, I wonder if the girl can know the location?"

"Brother, I know. ”

The fawn jumped up next to it and raised its hand.

"Childe is polite, the concubine has seen this old man before, and the deer just knows. ”

Li Shuiyue smiled slightly and made a promise.

And it came to pass.

Jiang Xiaobai personally took out a jar of earth-sealed wine from the cellar and came out.

"Girl, this is a New Year's gift for Grandpa Chen, hug it. ”

He smiled and directly hugged the little girl with this jar of wine weighing one or twenty catties.

The girl's cultivation is small, but she has strength.

Jiang Xiaolu held his hands in his hands, his head was covered, and he looked cute.

Then, Li Shuiyue took Jiang Xiaolu to ride the wind and drove away.

"Wang...."

The little milk dog Rhubarb jumped and barked at the sky in the yard.

"Heh, it turns out that the girl forgot to take you!"

Jiang Xiaobai couldn't help but smile happily, raised his hand, and threw the rhubarb on it.

Then he walked under the old peach tree and laughed at the scene just now, waiting for him to talk about it again, and sat down.

.................

Dozens of miles away from Wutong Mountain, Sanshui County.

This small county town in the mountains is obviously much more special than other cities in Kyushu.

This is one of the first lines of defense to prevent the White Dragon Demon Mountain Demon Beasts from entering the human city, and a large number of troops and hot weapons are stationed, as well as some cultivators from the Eight Sects.

Since the abnormal changes in the White Dragon Demon Mountain not long ago, and the super-large-scale beast tide and battles occurred, the defensive strength of these county towns has been further strengthened, and the dense firepower network has quickly formed an iron wall.

And the residents of the county, the last large-scale beast tide was really too terrifying, and many people who were in a hurry to flee for their lives and were frightened have come back one after another these days, but there are still many outside.

Therefore, in this lively New Year's Spring Festival, the county seat of Sanshui County is much more deserted, the pedestrians on the street are deserted, and the sound of firecrackers is scattered, which cannot become a lively climate.

A few years ago, the mountain people of all ethnic groups gathered together to be lively, and the scene of firecrackers and festivity was never seen again.

Xincun, the village that was rebuilt after the slaughter of dozens of deep mountain villages when the first animal tide occurred a few years ago, was quite lively on the second day of the Lunar New Year.

The people here are all mountain people who once lived in the mountains, and their hometown was slaughtered by the beast tide, and they surrounded here, unlike those who moved out and did not come back, their roots are here in the mountains, and they are adrift when they go out, so most people choose to continue to stay here.

The new village, in the northwest corner, was once divided into villagers in Taohuali to live in this area.

On this day, Chen's hometown was full of people, but it was not very lively.

Chen's relatives, some neighbors in Peach Blossom, and Chen Yuan's wife's parents all came.

Originally, there were many people, so this year was naturally more lively, but the old man of the Chen family vomited blood in anger because of an incident not long ago, and he was in poor health recently and was sick in bed.

The cause of the incident was a major event that had never been heard of, because the Chen family had an immortal calligraphy and painting, and not long ago, it exerted a stunned immortal power in the attack of the beast tide.

Later, the immortals stationed here came, and took away the calligraphy and painting both soft and hard, and the matter was over, and Chen Lao regarded this calligraphy and painting as more important than life, but he could not compete with the power and means of the immortals, so he fell angry.

This matter is no longer a secret in the new village, but the origin of the immortal calligraphy and painting in the hands of the Chen family has become a mystery that other people talk about after dinner!

Immortals, for these mountain people who are very close to the White Dragon Demon Mountain, it is no longer an ethereal legend, after all, the demon beast and the real dragon have seen it with their own eyes. But for ordinary people, immortals still need to be awe and look up.

On this day, in the kitchen of the Chen family, the ladies were busy in the kitchen for lunch, and the children were running outside with toy pistols "biubiubiu", playing the recently emerging game of fighting monsters.

Several relatives and folks were playing cards.

In a side room, Chen's grandson and his wife Xiaoyun were helping their grandfather on the sickbed to get up.

After a while, the meal will be ready.

"Grandpa, these days are happy days for the New Year, don't be angry, your body is broken, if Uncle Xiaobai sees you like this, he will definitely not agree. ”

Chen Yuan, now a father of a few months old, has grown a lot of beard stubble, and looks different from the mature and stable in the past, he is a little helpless and worried when he sees his grandfather like this.

"Alas......"

The angry Old Man didn't say anything, just let out a long sigh.

"Uncle Xiaobai is also an immortal, those people are not necessarily better than Uncle Xiaobai, if you said that the calligraphy and painting were Uncle Xiaobai's, maybe..."

Chen Yuan was also a little unwilling in his words, in fact, he didn't know that the calligraphy and painting that Uncle Xiaobai left behind without saying goodbye had "immortal supernatural powers", which was so powerful.

Since this is the case, then Uncle Xiaobai should be a very powerful immortal, as for how powerful, Chen Yuan doesn't know.

"Shut up, don't speak. ”

But seeing that Chen Lao, who was originally weak, suddenly turned his head and shouted at him, his cloudy old eyes were full of majesty.

Chen Yuan was taken aback.

"Okay, okay, I don't say it, I don't say it, don't be angry. ”

Grandson Chen Yuan didn't dare to rush in front of Chen Lao, so he naturally obediently followed.

As for his wife, Ah Yun, she had been supporting Chen Lao by the side without speaking, she knew that the Chen family had a very close relationship with a rumored immortal.

That immortal once came to see his grandfather Chen Lao when he was seriously ill and demented almost half a year ago, and left a pair of words, and then the old man's dementia magically got better quickly.

It's just a pity that the magical calligraphy and painting were taken away by the master who defended the demon beasts here.

And the immortal who had a close relationship with the Chen family never appeared, and the old man of the Chen family didn't mention this immortal at all, let alone anyone in the family.

It seems to be a taboo!

I don't know what Old Man Chen thinks in his heart.

"The meal is ready, make the table. ”

Voices could be heard outside the house.

The couple helped the old man out of the room, and then there was a crackling and lively sound of firecrackers.

At this time, in the distant sky, a white wave broke through the sky.

Soon after, a streamer flashed from the sky, and two figures appeared, as well as a small yellow dog.

There are two figures, one big and one small, a woman in a plain robe, light and dusty, and a little girl holding a wine jar and a high meter.

The two appeared in front of a courtyard.

The courtyard gate was hidden, and the clear air was mixed with unfinished sulfur smoke.

The sound of firecrackers was also heard one after another.

"Sister, it's here. ”

The little girl screamed happily, holding the wine jar and walking awkwardly to the courtyard gate.

The dusty woman behind her smiled faintly and followed.

(After careful consideration, I am ready to send rhubarb to euthanasia, I can't eat anymore, I can't move much, I hope it's good, alas.... ）
