In a flash, more than a month passed.

In these days in Ganling Town, eating and drinking well, Li Yan gradually got used to it.

Every morning, following Uncle Jiu to learn the Tao, his skills have grown a lot, and the day of completing the system task is getting closer and closer.

Today's Li Yan is also very familiar with drawing talismans, chanting spells, and exorcizing demons, coupled with the careful teaching of Uncle Jiu, Li Yan's ability is also much higher than that of Qiusheng and Wencai.

In the courtyard, the new bathhouse has been built, which is much more spacious than the original, and the statues of the gods in the main hall have also been dressed in golden clothes, which is even more majestic.

Everything, the years are quiet.

Early this morning, Li Yan was chatting with Wencai and Qiusheng in the courtyard.

After a while, I saw Uncle Nine walking out of the house with a burden on his back.

"Huh? Master, where are you going? Wen Cai hurriedly asked.

Uncle Nine walked over, smiled, and said, "That's the case, it's the Maoshan Festival in a few days, and I have to rush back." ”

"Go back?" Qiusheng suddenly jumped up and said, "Master, why didn't you tell us?" Let's pack our things in advance...... This hurried ......"

Before he could finish speaking, Uncle Nine interrupted him and said, "This time I plan to go back alone, the three of you, just stay at home." ”

Li Yan was stunned and said, "Senior brother, how long will it take for you to come back?" ”

"I don't know, count the days, if it's fast, it's ten days and half a month, and if it's slow, there should still be a month." When it came to returning to Maoshan Mountain, Uncle Jiu's face was full of energy.

For Maoshan, Uncle Nine belongs to the outer disciples.

Since childhood, I have been cultivating outside, that is, important festivals such as festivals, and I will come back to participate.

At the end of the day, it's good to come back once a year.

Uncle Nine hasn't been back to the sect for a few years, and in previous years, it was all because of something delayed, and it was rare to have free time this year, so naturally he wanted to go back and meet his old friends.

Although Uncle Nine has the grand ambition to start a sect, in the final analysis, he still has a lot of feelings for the Maoshan faction and yearns for it.

When Uncle Nine was young, he studied with his master in Maoshan.

Afterward...... His master chose to travel all over the world, and Uncle Nine followed him all the way.

Later, he came to Ganling Town to settle down.

For decades, Uncle Nine has called himself a disciple of Maoshan Mountain, and he has never forgotten the sect of the past.

It's just that the old man has passed away, and secondly, he also has feelings for Ganling Town, so Uncle Nine has no idea of returning to Maoshan to cultivate.

……

Li Yan was a little worried, and said, "Senior brother, there are soldiers and horses outside, will it be unsafe for you to go for so long?" Or...... It's okay to let Wencai or Qiusheng go back with you! Along the way, there are many people to take care of you. ”

"That's right! Master, you go by yourself, we don't feel at ease. ”

Wencai and Qiusheng were also very distressed about Uncle Nine.

Uncle Nine smiled "haha" and said, "I'm not old yet, if you go back with me, maybe you need me to take care of you along the way!" Alright...... This time I have made up my mind, I can go back by myself, you guard the door of the house, and often offer incense to the grandfather......"

Speaking of this, Uncle Nine looked at Li Yan and said, "Senior brother, I wanted to go back in previous years, and I was always a little relieved, but with you this year, I am also a lot more relieved, you take Wencai and Qiusheng well, don't let the two of them get into trouble." ”

"Don't worry!" Li Yan said.

Wen Cai and Qiusheng cried and said, "Master, you have been gone for so long, we are reluctant to let you ......"

"It's okay, I want you for the teacher, it's rare to be so idle, haha......"

Uncle Nine laughed, as if he had unloaded a heavy burden, and as soon as he finished speaking, he didn't look back, turned around and left.

……

Sent away Uncle Jiu, the three of them are in the courtyard, you look at me, I look at you, for a while, I don't know what to do.

Usually when Uncle Nine is there, Wencai and Qiusheng are always cautious when they start doing things, for fear of being punished by Uncle Nine.

Now that Uncle Nine is gone, these two people are a little uncomfortable.

Li Yan smiled and said, "Wencai, Qiusheng, be happy, senior brother is not here, I will take care of you." ”

"Uncle Shi, we can't be happy." Wencai and Qiusheng were a little sad.

"Look at your little bit of talent, senior brother is not going to die, this will be back in a month at most......" Li Yan said, suddenly thought of something, and said: "By the way, you two, go to the street to buy some charcoal and come back, and then buy some crab meat, chicken wings, tofu, eggplant and other things, and Uncle Shi will take you to skewers." ”

"Uncle Shi, what is the skewer?" Wen Cai was a little puzzled.

"Good stuff, it's very delicious, let's go!"

"Okay."

Wencai and Qiusheng left with some reluctance.

……

An hour later, the three of them sat around the fire, laughing and laughing.

In the courtyard, the smoke curls and the aroma wafts.

I saw Wen Cai pick up a string of chicken wings, take a bite, and immediately give a thumbs up, saying, "Uncle Shi, fragrant...... It's really fragrant...... This thing is so delicious......"

"Of course, your uncle and I are barbecue experts." Li Yan smiled and served the food on the fire.

Qiusheng was full of praise and said, "Uncle Shi, when Master comes back, I want Master to taste your craftsmanship." ”

"At a time like this, how can you miss a drink?"

Li Yan said, touching his hand behind him.

"Didi, three cans of Coca-Cola......"

I saw Li Yan take it out, and three bottles of Coca-Cola were taken out.

Wencai and Qiusheng's eyes lit up and they were overjoyed.

"It's been a long time since I've drunk Uncle Shi's potion......"

"This thing, it's delicious......"

Several people excitedly skewered and drank happy fat house water, forgetting the sadness of Uncle Jiu's departure for a while.

……

At this moment.

Outside the courtyard, I only saw a middle-aged man with a thin face, walked outside the courtyard gate, hesitated, and stretched out his hand to knock on the courtyard door.

Knock knock knock......

"Is anyone there?"

The middle-aged man shouted at the top of his voice.

"Huh? Who is it? ”

The three people who were sitting around the fire were stunned for a moment.

"I'll open the door."

Qiusheng jumped up suddenly and hurriedly walked in the direction of the courtyard gate.

After a while, the door opened, and when he saw the man outside, Qiu Sheng smiled and said, "This big brother, who are you looking for?" ”

The middle-aged man's expression, a little unsightly, seemed to be worried, glanced into the courtyard, and asked, "Nine ...... Is Uncle Nine here? ”

"Oh, are you looking for my master? He just went out this morning......" Qiusheng said with a smile.

"Out of the house?"

When the middle-aged man heard this, a look of disappointment flashed in his eyes, and he stood there a little helpless for a while.

Qiusheng saw that there was something wrong with the man's face, and said, "This eldest brother, you are looking for my master, is there something wrong?"

"I encountered something dirty at home, and I wanted to find Uncle Nine...... Do me a favor......" The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment and said.

When Qiusheng heard this, he immediately smiled, patted the man's shoulder, and said, "It's easy to say, it's easy to say, I thought it was a big deal...... Although my master is not here, my uncle is at home! ”

"Your uncle?" The middle-aged man's eyes widened.

"Yes, yes, my uncle's ability is not below my master, he is known as the 'Ganling Town Cannon King', which is very powerful." Qiusheng nodded hurriedly.

"Qiusheng, who?"

Li Yan's voice suddenly came, and I saw him slowly walking forward.
