Chapter Thirty-Nine: Master? Kunlun War?
"Don't expect me to call you Senior Brother. Shoichi. ”
As soon as I sat down and poured myself a cup of tea, I took a sip when Masahito suddenly said this. I was suddenly startled, tilted my head, and squirted out the tea that I had just drunk in my mouth and had not had time to swallow.
It was as if a huge meteorite had fallen on the surface of the otherwise calm lake, and then caused an uproar.
For a while, Zhengqing, including Zhengwei and Zhengchun, all echoed, saying that they would not call everyone senior brothers and sisters.
Actually, I don't care about this title at all, and the "secret fight" between me and Zhengren just now is actually just the nature of children who want to be the king of children in a crowd of people of the same age.
Of course, I don't know why the relationship between Master and Uncle Jiang is also due to such nature.
I cleared my throat and said to Jeong-in, "Then I'll call you Jeong-in-go." ”
We have all followed our own masters to learn the Tao since childhood, and the number of years we have learned the Tao is actually our age.
Brother Zhengren is three years older than me, Zhengwei and Zhengqing are the same age as me, and Zhengchun is the youngest.
So we agreed to call us by age. For example, if I call Zhengren Brother Zhengren, and Zhengwei, Zhengchun and Zhengqing, I will directly call the name.
Zhengwei and Zhengqing, like me, call Zhengren a brother. Zhengchun is the youngest, so he naturally calls us all brothers and sisters.
We are all well aware of the rules of the master, and the generations are determined in the order of mountain, medicine, life, physiognomy, and divination. But privately, we all call each other by their first names.
Just when we were deciding what to call each other, we suddenly said, "I don't know what they are talking about, Master." ”
Hearing this, we realized that some of the behaviors of the older generation are indeed a little weird.
Looking back now, when my master asked my uncles to go upstairs, that expression with a little helplessness and a little pain really made me a little curious about what the older generation was going to talk about.
Not only my master, but also Uncle Jiang, Uncle Li, and Uncle Pan are all like this, with helplessness and pain on their faces, even Uncle Zhou, who has always behaved like a child, is the same!
Listening to Zhengwei's words, it seems that he knows what some of the older generation has to talk about.
I found that not only did I think of this, but Brother Zhengren, Zhengchun, and Zhengqing seemed to have thought of it. A few of us looked at Zhengwei in unison.
And he was sitting upright, picked up a cup of tea, and before he could drink it, he was a little embarrassed by our burning eyes, so he said, "You don't have to look at me, I don't know much." There are only six words - the battle between Shizu and Kunlun. I think, that's what Uncle Chen and they are talking about. ”
Shizu? The Battle of Kunlun?
As I muttered these six words, I was reminded of a conversation I had not long ago.
And Masahito saw that I kept muttering something, and he said, "Junichi, do you know something?" You might as well say it and think about it together. ”
At this time, I can't care about Zhengren's "big brother" tone, because I think about something!
So I told Zhu Qinshou what he had inadvertently said on the way to Lao Zhengtou's house. That was the first time I had heard about the great war between Shizu and Kunlun.
After listening to my story, Zhengren, Zhengwei, Zhengchun, and Zhengqing all frowned and fell into deep thought.
But to my surprise, it didn't take long for Zhengchun and Zhengqing to exclaim at the same time.
The two of them obviously thought of something, and "woke up" from their contemplative state, and unconsciously exclaimed loudly and loudly, and Zhengren and I panicked, and hurriedly stepped forward to take charge of one and covered their mouths.
After a while, Zhengchun and Zhengqing came to their senses, and Zhengren and I slowly put down our hands.
Zhengchun said in a low voice: "A few years ago, once Master went out to give people a yin house, when I was cleaning up Master's room, I saw a note written by Master. It mentions the great battle of Shizu in Kunlun, but that page was torn up...... But there is a sentence in the notebook that says what the soul nourishing jade ......"
It was also after Zhengchun peeked at the notes that Master Zhou knew about it, that such a kind and lovely person beat and scolded Zhengchun fiercely that day, and strictly forbade Zhengchun from entering his room from then on.
After being finished by Jeong-chun, Jeong-cheong went on to say some things she knew, followed by Jeong-wei and Jeong-in.
After everyone finished speaking, we found out that we had more or less contact with our respective masters over the years, or heard some words about the Kunlun War of our ancestors.
We are all children, and the most powerful thing for children is imagination. So with some of our discussion and imagination, we actually imagined the story of the ancestor in Kunlun Mountain, alone against a group of ghosts and demons.
It may seem like nonsense, but what we don't know is that we've actually guessed part of the truth, or rather, imagined something real.
In any case, after such speculation and imagination, Shizu has become a fairy-like existence in our minds.
Just as we imagined the infinite extension, a voice came from upstairs, accompanied by the sound of many people walking down the stairs: "What are the little cubs talking about?" ”
Listening to this style of speaking, it is obvious that it is my master. Looking at several uncles and uncles, there are also those who have always been very arrogant and have no rules when speaking.
"Master!" We quickly got up from the couch, looked at the stairs, and each called out Master.
I saw that Master's state had returned to normal, and the helplessness and pain when I went upstairs had disappeared, as if it had never been.
Even the uncles and uncles are like this, Uncle Jiang still has that breezy and scholarly and majestic expression, Uncle Li is indifferent and does not speak, and Uncle Zhou is also the same as before, happy and happy. It's like the same look on their faces when they went upstairs just now, but I just looked away.
I also keenly saw that Uncle Pan's eyes were a little red, and I don't know if he had cried.
After the master, uncles, and uncles sat down, Zhengchun winked at me, and Zhengren, Zhengwei, and Zhengqing did the same, looking at me expectantly.
I couldn't help but smile bitterly, then gritted my teeth and asked Master, "Master, tell me about the Great Battle of Master in Kunlun!" ”
Yes, this is the result of "consultation" by our younger generation, and it is up to me to ask Master about the Great War of Master in Kunlun.
said that it was a discussion, but in fact, at the beginning, Brother Zhengren, Zhengwei, Zhengchun and Zhengqing all unanimously agreed that I should be the first bird.
After resisting a few times to no avail, I asked angrily, "Why am I?" ”
Brother Zhengren replied calmly: "You are a senior brother!" ”
I was speechless for a while, now admit that I am a senior brother?
I was about to refute, but I saw Zhengwei, Zhengchun, and Zhengqing nodding wildly.
Well, I'll bear with it!
Thereupon......
When I asked, Master looked at me in amazement. Then, the uncle and uncle all brushed together, glaring at the master angrily.
Master hurriedly picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and then accidentally choked on the tea, coughing vigorously, and his face turned red.
There was another detail during this period, that is, the master glared at me when he was looking up to drink tea, and I didn't dare to look directly into the master's eyes, so I could only look directly at the floor.
"Okay, I've said it, don't be like a little daughter-in-law." Master glanced at me, put down the teacup, and then stretched out his hand, starting with Uncle Pan, and swept to Uncle Jiang in turn, and said domineeringly: "What do you see?" You, you, you, and you, haven't you said that you have slipped your mouth? ”
The uncle and uncle who were pointed out by the master were embarrassed to touch their heads, or bow their heads to drink tea, but when they came to Uncle Jiang, Uncle Jiang glanced at his neck, did not look at my master, and snorted quietly from his nose.
Seeing that there was no reaction from everyone, Master beckoned a few of us to come, and then said to us, "During this time, you can study in peace, and wait for the winter vacation, so that your master can take you to our house and celebrate the New Year together." ”
After saying this, Brother Zhengren and the others nodded while wondering in their hearts, why did this Uncle Chen (Senior Uncle) suddenly talk about this?
Only I feel like a mirror in my heart, which is a common trick used by old men - to change the subject. Every time he talks about something he doesn't like to talk about, he only has this trick!
Helplessly, as soon as I heard that everyone was going to my house for the New Year, my attention was immediately diverted, so this old man's trick can be described as tried and tested.
