On the willow tops of the moon, the sound of crackling firecrackers suddenly sounded in the Yuhuang Pass, followed by fireworks rising from the center of the village, and the brilliant fireworks illuminated the entire Yuhuang Pass as bright as day.

There is no gunpowder in Wanluojie, let alone cheap fireworks made of gunpowder. These fireworks and firecrackers are all made by the Mo family and the doctor, using demon pills and extremely rare ores, herbs and other substances.

The original purpose of these fireworks was not to celebrate, but to deal with certain epidemics, but later some wealthy people used it for celebrations.

For a while, they all looked at the sky in amazement, and it was not until the brilliant fireworks dissipated that they noticed the old man Zhou and the others who had already arrived at the entrance of the village.

The old man walked in the center of the front of the crowd, obviously seventy years old, but he was still strong and strong, if it weren't for the silver hair, some people would believe him when he was fifty years old.

On the left hand side of the old man is the village chief of his son Zhou, and on the right hand side is the village chief of a certain village who is good friends with Yuhuang Pass.

Outside, after these village chiefs and leaders saw all the people in the first two rows clearly, they were stunned and stunned, and the shock in their hearts was even greater than when they saw the fireworks just now.

Two village owners!

Two owners of Waran Village!

The two of them are invincible owners of Valan Village in these ten miles and eight townships!

Walking at the very edge of the second row?

What's even more surprising is that these two didn't feel humiliated at all, and they were laughing and laughing with the people next to them comfortably, looking like that...... Have a good conversation?

There was a 'buzz' in the crowd and the pot exploded.

"Those two people look like the two village owners, am I dazzled?"

"I saw it too, it seems...... Don't you see them embroidered with tiger heads on their chests?"

"You must be dazzled! Who are the two village owners? Why are you standing in the middle of the wall?"

The same discussion is taking place in every corner of the square, and no one believes that the two masters who have always ruled ten miles and eight towns from above will willingly stand in that kind of place.

In fact, everyone was not mistaken, and such a position was also chosen by the two village owners willingly, of course, Old Man Zhou did not stop it. From knowing the reason for these two people's surrender, the old man knew that Valanzhai was no longer worried.

These two people are disciples of Huju Mountain, that is, the sect that Zhou Qi worshipped. However, the two of them are just miscellaneous disciples who are not even considered disciples of the outer sect, otherwise they would not have been sent to remote corners such as ten miles and eight towns to eat soil.

Although the two are just small people, the little people also have the survival wisdom of the little people. The wisdom of the two of them is that those who do not know the details will never be provoked, those who cannot be provoked will not be provoked, and those who have already been provoked will either quickly bow their heads or do their best and never leave their hands.

That's why they've been able to get away with it to this day.

And now Zhou Qi is an existence they can't afford to provoke.

When they first learned that Zhou Qi had offended countless people in the door, the two of them also ridiculed 'soil buns are soil buns', and later heard that the master uncle was seriously injured and did not live for a few years, and the two were ready to devour the bath Huang Ao.

But two days ago, as soon as the two learned that Shi Shuzu was not injured, but only pretended to be injured in order to force Zhou Qi to lose all his reliance on going out to practice, the two immediately decided to bow their heads to Yuhuang Ao, and they did not hesitate at all.

It is precisely for this reason that when the village chief of Zhou went to give gifts, they would immediately give out a golden Buddha on the donkey, and asked all the villages in ten miles and eight townships to come to celebrate the old man's birthday.

Even for this reason, the big boss forgave Li Jiacun and chose to drive the old guy from Sangu Village out of Yuhuang Ao. After all, he and Li Jiacun now belong to the same camp of Yuhuangao, even if there is a conflict between them, it should be up to the 'big brother' Yuhuangao to mediate, how can he not give face to the eldest brother and fight by himself?

As for the ten-stone crossbow that ordinary people can pull apart, the big boss doesn't care about it, it's not that thing outside, it may still be useful in the early stage of the Yuanwu Realm, but in the middle of the Yuanwu Realm, after having the protection of the True Yuan, that thing is a fart!

Of course, although the two village owners are willing to give in, they will inevitably feel a little uncomfortable in their hearts, but after talking to the old man, the last trace of unwillingness has disappeared.

This old man Zhou actually took the initiative to let Zhou Qi accept them as apprentices, you must know that Zhou Qi is now a core disciple, and his disciples are directly outer disciples, which is much higher than their miscellaneous disciples.

This was a surprise for the two of them, what did they come to the Ten Miles and Eight Towns for? Wasn't it to wait for one day when the merit was big enough to be promoted to an outer disciple?

Therefore, at this time, the two masters can stand in the middle and talk and laugh with the old men and grandchildren next to them.

The speed of the crowd was not fast, and after walking the tea time, they walked from the entrance of the village to the high platform on the north side of the square, and after the old lady Zhou and other people in the first two rows ascended the high platform, the rest of the people walked to the vacant seats on the square. However, everyone did not sit down, but waited for the old man to sit down, and then they sat down one after another.

At this time, it was finally the turn of the birthday celebrations in each village, originally these villages were all in rotation with equal generations, and the older ones only needed to call the old man an old brother, and the younger one called an uncle.

But this time, as soon as the village elders walked on the high platform, the big boss sitting on the edge came and said, "Lao Tzu just worshipped the teacher, and now he calls the old man the master, you can do it." ”

The old man was naturally comfortable when he heard this, but he still had to get by on his face, so he glanced at the big boss and said with a smile at everyone: "Let's pay our own and each pay our own." ”

But having said that, the old man didn't move, didn't even lift his buttocks, and sat down in the chair so steadily.

Everyone is not stupid, where do they still not understand what this means? When Yuhuangao invited all the villages to a banquet, they either ran away first, or they took care of him, and they were ready to win in Yuhuangao, so everyone did not twist.

For a while, both young and old knelt on the ground and called the old lady, and those who loved to pat on the back even shouted the ancestors, which was another generation of self-surrender.

When everyone finished worshipping their birthdays, they just sat down, and were waiting for the old lady to move the chopsticks to start the banquet, but they saw that the old lady turned to look at the east pass, and everyone hurriedly turned their heads to look over, only to see four people walking towards this side at the pass.

All four were shirtless with their arms tied, each with a wooden stick tied behind their backs, and an ox cart behind them.

Xu found that everyone was waiting for him, and the pace of the four of them sped up a lot, and even the big green ox pulling the cart also ran, and after only half a cup of tea, the four of them ran to the square.

At this time, everyone finally saw what was being pulled on the ox cart.

On the ox cart is a sterling silver frame, and the red thread is worn with a longevity screen woven from copper coins. It's just that it seems that the production time is a little rushed, and the patterns on the sterling silver frame are not delicate enough, but it does not affect the overall beauty, and it looks more simple.

Everyone looked at the size of the frame and estimated it, and felt that such a screen alone would cost at least two thousand taels of silver. There was also a cash tree full of silver ingots and copper coins on the ox cart, which should have been a few hundred taels of silver.

But once the silver is made into handicrafts, it will not be the original price, at least three to fifty percent of the premium.

In other words, the congratulatory gifts from Sangu Village are worth at least 3,500 taels or more.

The so-called stretching out his hand and not hitting the smiling person, the other party brought such a congratulatory gift, even if the old man does not wait to see Sangu Village again, he must give enough face, not to mention that the relationship between the old man and the old village chief of Guqian Village for decades can really be broken?

The main thing is that the old village chief did too much, which really broke the old man's heart. But even so, the old man has always had a trace of ...... in his heart Regretful!

After the four of them came to the stage, they knelt on the ground and 'dong dong' were three rings, and then they saw the head of Guqian Village confessing with a bitter face: "Master, my uncle lost his mind and went crazy again, and he actually ran to Yuhuang Pass to play crazy and disturbed the birthday of the grandfather." Please also ask the master to punish him!"

As soon as the old man heard that his old man had come, he immediately looked at Village Chief Zhou, but Village Chief Zhou had been at home with his father all day today, and he had never heard of it, and finally the owner of the village came out to say the reason.

After listening to the reason for what the owner of the village said, the old man neither said yes nor said no, he did not suspect that the master of the village was lying, after all, he had been friends for decades, who was the old village chief, and he could not understand?

The head of Guqian Village had already heard what the old village chief had said, so he was not surprised at all, but after listening to it, he still knelt on the ground again and said: "Forgive me, my uncle is really a false accusation, I soiled my grandfather's ears, and my grandson, as a junior, is willing to be punished on behalf of my uncle, please punish my grandfather!"

Seeing that the master looked at him suspiciously, the village chief of Guhe Village hurriedly told the grievances between Sangu Village and Lijia Village as they were. Of course, the Spring and Autumn brushwork is naturally inevitable, for example, the head of Guhe Village was cut off his arms.

But even if there is no this, Lijia Village still belongs to the reasonable side, after all, it was someone else who started to rob Sangu Village first, and it was the villagers of Guhe Village who couldn't afford to lose and wanted to kill Li Laosan in the end.

After hearing this, the old lady nodded noncommittally, and did not seem to have the slightest idea of helping Mitani Village.

When the village chief of Guqian Village saw this scene, he didn't know that the old village chief's behavior had annoyed him again, so he kowtowed a few more times and said with a bitter face: "Please punish the master!"

After all, today is the old man's birthday, how can he do it because of this little thing? So he waved his hand and asked his son to help these people up.

It stands to reason that at this time, the four people of Sangu Village should find a place to sit after their birthdays, but why does the village chief of Guqian Village do so much? Just to help Lijia Village say two good words?

Naturally not.

I saw him kowtow again and said: "If there is a mistake, it should be punished, if the master is not punished because of the neighboring relationship between Sangu Village and Yuhuang Pass, the relationship is more friendly than that of the side village, then how will he serve the public in the future?"

Then, without waiting for the master to order, he and the three people who came with him divided into two groups, and they beat each other with thirty sticks.

In addition to the villagers of Yuhuang'ao present, the worst were also the Golden Body Realm martial artists, whether the four of them really used their strength, whether they relied on their cultivation to resist hard, could they still be unclear? The four of them obviously used all their strength.

These thirty sticks come down, don't say that it is a vitality realm like the village chief of Guqian Village, even if it is a true martial arts realm powerhouse, it will take a few days to lie down without using internal force.

But although the head of Guqian Village had some difficulty getting up, he didn't even snort, but the other three didn't seem to be able to get up.

Seeing the bloody wounds behind the village chief of Guhe Village who was bowing to the ground, the little affection that the old man had for that old friend seemed to have been provoked. I feel that this junior looks so pleasing to the eye, it seems that he can be more human than the old guy, maybe he can try to show a trace of kindness?

It shouldn't be enough to hit a snake with a stick, right?

After arranging for the other three people to rest in the thatched hut, the village chief of Guqian Village was invited to the seat of the nearby grandfather.

After thanking the grandfather first, the village chief of Guqian Village said: "After all, the uncle slandered Lijia Village, and the grandson, as the head of Guqian Village, apologized to Lijia Village since his uncle, and I hope that the grandfather will be fulfilled!"

When the old man saw him insisting so much, he fulfilled him, but after some search in the crowd, he found that no one from Lijia Village had come.

Although the old man didn't say it, could he still be a little unhappy in his heart? Seeing that the old man was not happy in his heart, the big boss shouted angrily that he wanted to kill Lijia Village immediately.

After all, the old lady's birthday, can you really let the big boss run away and kill people? Everyone hurriedly stopped the big boss, and the village chief of Guhe Village also persuaded him.

"Lijia Village is a long way to go. ”

"The mountain roads are rough, and there will inevitably be some problems!"

"Maybe Lijia Village is already on the way, and it will be there soon. ”

It's okay if the head of Guqian Village doesn't persuade him, but he is even more angry when he persuades the big boss.

How far can Lijia Village be as far away as those villages in the west? People have come for more than ten days, but they haven't arrived for two days?
