In the early morning, the sun was shining, and there were people waiting in the courtyard early, waiting for the dragon to get up. Long Zaitian has never been served, so he doesn't want to go, and he washes up quickly. Sikong Yuan looked enjoyable, and slowly waited for someone to pour water and hand the handkerchief.

The water girl and Wang Hui brought breakfast, white porridge and side dishes, steamed eggs, and a bowl of fragrant fish soup. After entering the courtyard, the delicious smell diffuses, lingering on the tip of the nose, making people salivate.

"It smells so good. Sikong Yuan blurted out.

"Senior, let's have dinner. The water girl shouted.

The four of them ate together, and Sikong Yuan couldn't wait to taste a mouthful of soup and admired, "The best in the world." ”

"What do you think, senior?" asked Wang Hui with a little apprehension.

"Good. Long Zaitian praised truthfully.

"Then I'm relieved, this is the soup made from the lake's unique golden spine fish. In order to let the seniors eat this bite, we didn't sleep all night, and we were tired to death. Wang Hui said.

"If you don't sleep all night, you can be tired? If that's the case, what else are you going to practice, just find a piece of tofu and kill you." The water girl scoffed.

"Alas, isn't this a way for seniors to understand our good intentions? Otherwise, it won't be in vain?" said Wang Hui.

The water girl wanted to speak and stopped.

Long Zaitian knew the thoughts of the two, but he couldn't do anything, he couldn't teach them anything, although they were both human beings, but there was a difference between humans and beasts after all, "I thank you very much, really, but ......"

"Okay, senior, I understand, you have a hard time. But senior, I want you to know that I did this, mainly to thank you for saving your life, if you hadn't made a move that day, I might have been more than lucky, and our group might not be able to come back. Those robbers didn't do it immediately, in fact, they were afraid that we would destroy the spirit herb pill and burn the jade, and after they succeeded, in order to prevent retaliation, the best way was to kill people. The water girl said gratefully.

"Yes, senior, we are a little cautious, but the most important thing is to thank you, since we have come to the island, we can't even leave without eating the souvenirs, then we can't be happy. Wang Hui said.

"Thank you. Long Zaitian said softly.

"I'm going to have to trouble my seniors to take care of it for a while in the future, and I'm definitely not going to be able to help anything, so I can only lead the way. Wang Hui said with a smile.

"Hmph. The water girl expressed her dissatisfaction.

"That's hard work for you. The dragon said politely.

"It's my pleasure. Wang Hui said busily.

The water girl looked at Sikong Yuan, who was sitting on the side, and said thoughtfully: "Sikong Gongzi lives here, and he will talk about it when his injuries are completely healed." ”

"I'm sorry for the girl. Sikong Yuan stood up and saluted.

"It's okay, don't be so polite, sit down and eat. The water girl said bluntly.

After the four of them finished eating, the water girl beckoned and asked her subordinates to put away the dishes and chopsticks.

Wang Hui took the package from the servant and said, "Then the senior clean up, and we'll hurry when we're done." ”

"I've packed it up, let's go. Long Zaitian put all the clothes in the storage ring.

---

There are boats moored at the ferry, but not as big as yesterday's. The wind is cold, the waves are rough, and the ships rise and fall with the waves.

Shui Jia and Hua Yuanshan waited quietly, their clothes ringing. Seeing the dragon appear in the sky, the two took the initiative to meet it.

"Long Gongzi can't help it, he doesn't entertain well. The ship is ready to set sail. Shui Jia smiled.

"Thank you, Master Shui. "The dragon is in the sky and holds his fists.

"Where, that's what I'm supposed to do. Don't make trouble for your son, boy, along the way. Shui Jia said with a smile.

"How dare I. Wang Hui called Qu Dao.

"If Gongzi Long is free in the future, he can send me again to Linyun, and he is welcome at any time, and he must treat Gongzi well at that time. Shui Jia assured.

"If the head has a heart, then I'll go first, take care. Long Zaitian said.

"Then we will see you again. Shui Jia laughed.

"Take care, seniors. ”

"Long Gongzi take care. ”

"The benefactor really doesn't think about taking me as an apprentice anymore. Sikong Yuan said suddenly.

The crowd looked at him in astonishment.

Sikong Yuan cringed and said, "Actually, I'm joking. ”

"There will be a period later. ”

Long Zaitian and Wang Hui boarded the ship and left.

Shui Jia and the others watched the boat disappear into the mist, and the water girl was reluctant to retract her gaze for a long time.

"Okay, Zheng'er, it's for your good not to let you go, what's the matter with a big girl going out with a man? And when you come back alone, I'm even more worried. Your cousin must think the same way when he fights with you, don't hold a grudge against him. Long Gongzi's mind is unpredictable, so let's forget about him. Shui Jia reassured.

"Father, what are you talking about? How can I like my predecessors? I can only admire and envy him, and I also want to have his strength. Standing here without moving, I just feel a little pity, I'm afraid I won't have the opportunity to meet again in the future. The water kite said bluntly.

"That's good, if you don't see it, you won't be there. Shui Jia said with relief, turned around and left, and Hua Yuanshan followed.

The kite girl no longer looked at the boat that had long been gone, turned her head to Sikong Yuan and smiled: "Sikong Gongzi is relieved to recuperate, if there is anything, tell your subordinates, if they can't solve it, they will come to me, don't be polite." ”

Sikong Yuan thanked him a thousand times, "Thank you, girl, it's really troublesome." ”

"Don't be polite with me, take care of your injuries. The kite girl said cheerfully.

After Long Zaitian and Wang Hui went ashore, they headed south. The dragon has nothing else in the sky. Wang Hui only held a sword and carried a package containing a few pieces of clothing and scattered silver, and the two of them were relaxed and neat. In order to hurry, Wang Hui did not take the official road, but crossed the mountains and mountains, and walked through the mountain paths.

Without burdens, without scruples, Wang Hui ran with all his might, the wind was whistling in his ears, and he felt extremely happy in his heart. While advancing, Wang Hui observed Long Zaitian from the corner of his eye, and found that he was following behind him unhurriedly, with brisk steps and a leisurely expression, effortlessly. The gap in the strength of the two was clearer in his heart, like clouds and mud, and he couldn't help but suspect that Long Zaitian had reached the realm that he dreamed of but was out of reach.

At noon, the two came to a hill. Wang Hui felt that the aura in his body was a little weak, and he didn't recklessly, so he immediately stopped, "Senior, let's take a rest and then hurry." ”

"Okay. Long Zaitian agreed.

Wang Hui meditated on a boulder, ran exercises, and restored his aura. After a quarter of an hour, I slowly opened my eyes, and the light flashed. Got up from the ground, took out the prepared dry cake from the package, and handed it to Long Zaitian, "Senior, are you hungry?" ”

Long Zaitian doesn't know his specific realm strength now, but he can feel the changes in his body, he doesn't eat for a short time, he doesn't have a sense of hunger, and it doesn't matter if he eats or not.

"Eat, I'm not hungry yet. ”

"You're welcome, senior, it's enough to eat. In fact, I just took dry food just in case of emergency, and I was in a hurry in the morning, and I missed the village, so it will be okay to pay attention in the future. Wang Hui said warmly.

"I'm not polite, I'm really not hungry, I can't eat, you eat well. Long Zaitian said.

Wang Hui no longer insisted and enjoyed it alone, "Senior, we have a long way to go to Jianmang Mountain, it may take a month or two, and this is already my fastest speed, if I speed up again, then I won't last so long, so you should be mentally prepared first, don't be too anxious." ”

"It's okay, don't force it, just rush normally. Long Zaitian said.

Wang Hui's mouth was stuffed with food, and he said vaguely: "Then I'll rest assured." ”

Wang Hui quickly finished eating the flatbread, took out the water bladder and poured a big mouthful, accidentally choked and coughed.

Long Zaitian cared: "Are you okay?"

Wang Hui coughed and waved his hand, indicating that he was fine.

"Don't be in a hurry, you still have the time to eat and drink. "The dragon said thoughtfully.

Wang Hui took a steady breath and said, "Aren't you thinking that you can be a little faster?

"Let's take a break. Long Zaitian proposed.

"Okay, let's take a break. Wang Hui obeyed and sat back on the boulder to rest. Unconsciously flashed in my mind the scene of yesterday's quarrel with my cousin, I didn't give an inch, and my uncle-in-law didn't agree to her coming out, and my cousin's fierce look gave me a headache. After I go back, I'm afraid that I will have a hard time, so I want to buy her some gifts and please her. Since childhood, the two have often quarreled, but they will let her every time, but this time they did not back down. Because it's too dangerous to come out alone. My cousin is not a cautious person, and she will definitely understand her feelings as an older brother.

When the rest was almost over, Wang Hui said, "Senior, let's go." ”

"Good. ”

The two continued on their way.

The sun is setting in the west, winter is getting dark quickly, and night is falling and the stars are shining. Wang Hui took the dragon in the sky and walked on the road to a town with endless streams, brightly lit.

Found a small inn, but the door was closed. There were lights coming through, shouting at people, and the sound of tables and chairs falling to the ground and dishes shattering.

Wang Hui stepped forward quickly, stretched out his hand and knocked on the door, "The shopkeeper has come to business, open the door." ”

The door of the inn opened suddenly, and a big man stood at the door, impatiently saying, "What is it called?"

"Think about it, old man, don't be stupid, let's go. Someone said inside. Then the door of the inn opened, and more than a dozen people walked out of it, with angry eyebrows.

When Wang Hui entered the inn, the ground was a mess, and the food was all over the ground. An old man pulled the eight or nine-year-old boy with a helpless face, and the boy looked angry.

When the old man saw a guest coming to the door, he apologized and said, "I'm really sorry, there's something going on in the store, so let's go to another house." ”

"What's wrong with the old man, what did those people do just now?" asked Wang Hui.

The old man looked at Wang Hui suspiciously, and the boy said angrily: "They are bad people, they want to rob our shop." ”

"The old man doesn't know me anymore? It's been more than a year since I had a meal with you. Wang Hui said with a smile.

"Well, is it? I don't remember, a meal is nothing, everyone has a difficult time. The old man said gently.

"I paid it back, old man. We haven't eaten yet, do the old people still have anything to eat?" Wang Hui asked.

"When the guest officer said this, I seemed to be a little impressed. Since we know each other, the guest officer will eat some food in the store, but there are only some leftovers, and no one else has eaten them, so they haven't had time to serve them, is it okay?" the old man asked.

"Yes, we're not picky eaters. Is it okay, senior?" Wang Hui reacted and turned his head to ask Long Zaitian.

"Yes. ”

The old man wanted to straighten the overturned table, and Wang Hui said I'll come and help fix the table and chairs.

"Guest officer, wait a minute, I'll serve the food. Huzi, go with grandpa. "The old man and the boy went to the back kitchen.

Wang Hui and Long sat down in the sky. After thinking for a moment, Wang Hui asked, "Senior, is it okay to delay for half a day?"

"You want to help? don't ask me, I'm following you, you're in charge. Long Zaitian said.

"Isn't this afraid of delaying the major affairs of the seniors? This time I came out mainly to lead the way for the seniors, and the main and secondary things should be clearly distinguished. In that case, let's look at the situation. Wang Hui said lightly.

The old man served a plate of chicken, a plate of braised pork, and cabbage and tofu. The boy is holding a basket of steamed buns. After setting it up, the old man went to clean the food dishes on the floor.

The boy was very sensible, and he was well-behaved with his grandfather, but his eyes were very honestly staring at the food on the table, and he swallowed his saliva unconsciously, and his stomach gurgled, and he immediately lowered his head, a little shy.

The old man touched the boy's head, "I'm hungry, wait a minute, I'll eat chicken legs later." ”

"Does Grandpa have anything to eat?" the boy asked.

"Of course there is. The old man laughed.

The boy smiled innocently, but the old man had a sad look on his face, and it seemed that he was only comforting his little grandson.

Wang Hui just wanted to speak, but Long Zaitian had already spoken, "If the old man doesn't mind, eat with us." ”

The old man hurriedly refused, "How can this be? ”

Wang Hui walked over and grabbed the old man's wrist without saying anything, "Don't be polite to the old man, how can you say that you also have a meal for me, it's my benefactor, come and eat." ”

The old man couldn't break free, so he could only sit down together, "What's so embarrassing?"

"It's okay, old man, eat quickly. Isn't the kid hungry if you don't hurry up and eat?" Wang Hui sandwiched a piece of braised pork for the little boy.

Although the boy was salivating, he did not move his chopsticks and turned his head to look at his grandfather.

The old man was distressed for a while, and finally let go of his heart, "Eat." ”

The boy was allowed to eat with pleasure, and spat out.

The old man just ate some cabbage and tofu, and did not touch the meat dishes, and still felt embarrassed.

Long Zaitian took the initiative to clip a few pieces of meat to the old man, but the old man couldn't shirk it, so he could only keep thanking him.

The old man's skin is shriveled and his face is vicissitudes. The boy is also thin and has a vegetable face. The clothes on the grandfather and grandson are a little thin, and I am afraid that they will not be able to survive the increasingly cold weather. Although the clothes were clean, they were white and patched, and it seemed that life was very difficult.

"Old man, what did those people we met do when we came? Why did they come to the inn to make trouble, did they owe money? Didn't they live a decent life a year ago?" Wang Hui couldn't help but ask.

The old man sighed with a sad face.

The boy was indignant, ignoring the food stuffed in his mouth, and said angrily: "They are bad people, they want to rob our house, and they come to eat for nothing every day." ”

The boy's speech was slurred, but his eyes widened, his face flushed, and his teeth and claws fluttered, which was somewhat amused.

Since ancient times, it is not surprising that the bullying of others, the seizure of people's property, and the bullying of men and women have never stopped.

The old man cherished his grandson and stroked his head with his hand, "I originally wanted to live a peaceful and stable life and raise the tiger, so that I could go with peace of mind, but the heavens did not fulfill people's wishes." ”

The boy was sad and cried out, "Grandpa." ”

"Grandpa is fine, Huzi is good, don't cry. The old man hurried to comfort.

"Old man, are those people from the town?" Wang Hui inquired.

The old man looked at Wang Hui and reminded: "The son is holding a sword, I think he has some ability, is he going to fight the grievances? In this case, the old man will have to say a few words, otherwise he will not be authentic and have a guilty conscience." They are from the Li Mansion to the east of this town. Originally, he was just a rich family, but he was not so arrogant and domineering, and he didn't know where his youngest son learned his skills, which was very powerful, and he recruited a group of scoundrels and became the bully of this town. In fact, there are also knights who can't look past it and teach a lesson, but in the end they are all defeated, and some even lose their lives. The two sons should leave it alone, it's time to hurry, just hurry. I've already figured out that I'll close tomorrow and give them the shop, and I'll be quiet. ”

Although the old man said it simply, his tone was full of reluctance.

"This shop should be some years old, is it really willing for the old man?" asked Wang Hui.

"Yes, it's been a few years, my grandfather's shop, a real century-old store, I didn't expect it to lose in my hands, I'm ashamed. The old man said bitterly.

"The old man will open two rooms for us, and we will stay in the hotel. Wang Hui didn't ask any more.

The old man saw that the sky was deep, and the other shops were probably closed, so he had to let the two of them stay, but he still advised: "The heart of the two sons, the old man has received it, don't do stupid things." Tomorrow morning, the two of them will leave quickly. Those people will not target us anymore if they get the inn, don't worry. ”

"Okay, we got it. Wang Hui said perfunctorily.

"After the two of them have eaten, they will live in the two rooms on the left hand side of the upper floor. The old man said.

"Thank you. Wang Hui said politely.

Wang Hui and Long went upstairs directly after having dinner on the day.

The old man looked at the backs of the two and shook his head, knowing in his heart that the two were young and vigorous, but he was afraid that he did not take his advice to heart, and decided to wake them up early tomorrow and let them leave, so as not to disturb others.

Coming to the second floor, Wang Hui said softly: "Senior, it seems that the other party also has cultivators, and I don't know the specific realm strength, I'm afraid that I will need seniors to make a move when the time comes." ”

"It depends, let's go to sleep first. Long Zaitian said calmly.

"Okay. Wang Hui walked into the room, his heart was settled, as long as the seniors did not plan to stay out of the matter, then everything was easy to say. Tomorrow, the troops will come to block it, and the water will cover it.
