"This old man, when he comes back, he will be in the treetops." The eldest lady smiled.

"Auntie, what are you going to do, uncle?" Huang Fuxuan came to the kitchen to get something to eat, and when he saw the eldest lady say this, he was a little curious.

"He's addicted to alcohol, so he went to the next village to buy alcohol." The eldest lady replied casually.

"That village five miles away?" Huangfu Xuan couldn't help but look out, the old man was old, and it would definitely take a long time to walk over: "Then I'll ride a horse to buy it for the old man." ”

"But you're still injured, so you should rest." The eldest lady was distressed and didn't let Huangfu Xuan go.

"It's just time to ask the doctor to change the medicine." Huangfu Xuan also wanted to take advantage of the day to explore the situation again, and was going to Bing Chi Mountain again tonight to save Jianyu and them, but now that he was injured, I am afraid that he could not be allowed to take that secret passage again, and the only way was to go down the river after passing through the piranha lake.

Huang Fuxuan asked the eldest lady to make some food for Xue Ling first, and after taking some silver, he led the horse, caught up with the old man, took the wine jug, shook the horsewhip, and raised a lot of dust.

The old man nodded with satisfaction, this child is still filial, and he and his wife are blessed now.

The horses ran very fast, and Huang Fuxuan first went to the hut by the lake and found the old man's house.

The old man was chopping wood, and when he saw Huangfu Xuan, he just raised his head slightly: "Not dead yet?" ”

Huangfu Xuan was a little embarrassed, and said goodbye yesterday, living up to the old man's kindness.

"What are you doing today?" The old man threw down the woodcutter and patted the dust on his hands.

"I want the old man to do something for me tonight." Huangfu Xuan explained the intention.

"What's the matter?" The old man wiped his hands on his body, took out a cotton cloth from his arms and handed it to Huangfu Xuan: "This is your jade pendant, I don't need to repay it." ”

"Thank you!" Huangfu Xuan took it, this is the best ancient jade, handed down from the ancestors, and it was only as a last resort that he left it as a reward.

"If there's anything you want me to do, just say it." The old man walked to the lake and looked at the calm water.

And Huang Fuxuan silently walked to the tethered horse, silently its head: "I'm sorry, I can only sacrifice you." The horse snorted very comfortably, and Huangfu Xuan couldn't bear to look at it anymore, so he turned to the old man and said, "Please throw the horse meat into the lake tonight, buy me a little time, and I will cross this lake." ”

"Okay." The old man didn't look back, so he promised that if he didn't die, there would be a blessing in the future, and he shouldn't stop these young descendants from doing what they wanted to do.

Huangfu Xuan bowed deeply behind the old man, pulled the horse, went to find a craftsman, and had to make a bamboo raft. After finishing this, I bought wine and returned to the farmhouse courtyard.

The eldest lady, the old man and Xue Ling had been waiting for a long time, and they thought that they were in danger on the road, so the three of them stood at the gate of the courtyard and waited, and finally saw Huangfu Xuan riding a horse over.

Xue Ling went up to take the wine jug, and went to Zhang Luo to open the meal with the old uncle and aunt, and Huangfu Xuan led the horse to the stable and came back, and the table was already full of dishes, which was quite sumptuous.

At first, Huang Fuxuan didn't think much about it, he was hungry, and ate with relish.

And the old man and the aunt I pushed you, you pushed me, no one refused to speak first, or Xue Ling couldn't stand it, covered her mouth and snickered, and couldn't help but speak: "Xuan, today the aunt and the uncle discussed something with me, see if you agree?" ”

"What's the matter?" Huang Fuxuan looked up at a few people, only to feel that something was wrong, the old man and the eldest lady looked nervous, and they didn't pick up the vegetables with chopsticks, so they lowered their heads like this.
