Walking in the old alley, the shopkeepers who sat down got up to greet me, and I smiled and responded one by one, but my heart was very stuffy.

There were too many people, too crowded, and the atmosphere was too lively, which made it difficult for me to feel safe.

When I finally returned to the thrift store, I found that there was also a round table in the hall, and the juniors of the winter character vein were there, and they were also there in Practical and Lao Jiang.

Li Huaishan and Huang Yuzhong were standing under the plaque, and Sun Luyuan was holding his mobile phone and helping them take pictures.

It took me a moment to come back to my senses before I shouted, "What are you doing here?" ”

Li Huaishan ran over with a smile, hooked my shoulders and said, "Today is your first day of teaching, shouldn't we keep a memory?" ”

"That's not what I'm talking about, what's going on with this feast tonight?"

Actually, I wanted to ask where the money for the banquet came from, but my head was not very clear, and the words became like this.

Li Huaishan said: "Uncle Yong asked us to hold a banquet, and he said that you must make a big noise about opening a sect." ”

Of course, I thought of this, and the practical banquet was naturally to spread the news of my opening of the sect as soon as possible. But the key problem is how to pay for the banquet, when I came from the alley, I found that the dishes on each table are very particular, and it is estimated that it will cost a lot of money.

Practical can see through what I care about most at a glance, and said from a distance: "Huang Yuzhong's money." ”

I looked at Huang Yuzhong, and this guy smiled at me: "I should pay for this money, I caused trouble to the stores a while ago, and I just took this opportunity to make amends to everyone." ”

Oh...... In other words, I don't have to pay for it, hey, I'm worried about it.

Practical beckoned to us: "Come over for dinner, the food will be cold in a while." ”

As soon as he said this, I realized that the food on the table had not been touched at all, and even the cutlery in front of everyone was neat, including practical, and everyone was sitting in the guest seats, but the main seat facing the door was empty.

Also, this dinner party was originally held to celebrate the beginning of my new sect, and the host of the banquet should naturally be me.

Since I am the master, it seems a bit too much to let Huang Yuzhong spend money, alas, forget it, he can spend it if he wants, and I will find other ways to repay him in the future, as long as it is not repaid with money.

Because I know that I am in love with sweets, there are a lot of sweet dishes on the table, there are also a lot of spicy dishes, and occasionally I can see a few Cantonese dishes, and it can be seen that they have put a lot of thought into practical things for this feast.

In addition, Huang Yuzhong also prepared wine, and many people were greedy for glasses at the wine table, and after the third round of drinking, several people were older.

This night, even the old oil man Baichuan drank himself a lot, he didn't pretend to express his stance anymore, and he didn't like to eat usually, every time he drank a glass of wine, he had to twist and pinch for a long time, just kept pushing the cup and changing the lamp, and in him, he could see a different kind of ease.

When the banquet was dismissed, it was already past one o'clock in the morning, and the people of the restaurant would come to clean up tomorrow, and tonight, all the tables and dishes were piled up in the old alley, and the hotel only sent one person to guard it in case it was lost.

After everyone left, Li Huaishan and I waited carefully beside her, and wanted to stuff her into the bedroom and pull her down, but this eldest sister played drunk and crazy endlessly, we stuffed her in, she rushed out crazy, we let her drink water, and people sprayed water directly on our faces.

Tossed until more than three o'clock, Yan Yanan finally collapsed on the sofa because of physical exhaustion, Li Huaishan and I were afraid of waking her up, and we didn't dare to forcibly carry her back to the bedroom, so we could only take blankets and pillows to let her sleep comfortably on the sofa.

Li Huaishan carefully picked up Yan Yanan's head, I stuffed the pillow under her neck, and covered her with a blanket, before I straightened up and slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

"How's it going?" Li Huaishan asked endlessly, probably because he was afraid of waking up Yan Yanan, and his voice was very small when he spoke.

I frowned: "How's that?" ”

Li Huaishan raised his chin towards the plaque on the north wall: "I'm asking you, now that you are also in the palm of a door, do you have any feelings?" ”

I looked up at the plaque and saw the words "Returning to the Heart", and I smiled uncontrollably, but I still said, "I can't tell you what it feels like." ”

It's the truth.

Maybe it was because Li Huaishan and I were still a little louder, which alarmed Yan Yanan, she turned sideways on the sofa and muttered a few times in her mouth.

We finally put this aunt to sleep, and we didn't dare to wake her up again, so we quickly silenced her.

The next morning, the hotel sent someone to collect things, and there was no one in the early morning, and the man was asleep soundly, so I could only cancel the morning practice plan and help the people in the hotel count the tableware.

Last night, I wondered what the relationship between this hotel and the old couple's family was, how could they leave their belongings in the old alley so reassuringly, even if there was a person to guard it, but there were so many things, one person couldn't see it at all.

I also heard from the person who came to collect the things that Huang Yuzhong gave the deposit early in the morning, and if he lost something, the hotel would not lose anything, just deduct it directly from the deposit.

When all kinds of household goods in the old alley were taken away, the hotel wanted to leave a few people here to clean up, but I refused. Because it was already more than nine o'clock in the morning, it was likely that someone would come to the old alley to do business, and I was afraid that the people in the restaurant would find out the true face of this alley, so I hurriedly sent them away.

The sanitation stores cleaned up, and I still pulled Li Huaishan and Huang Yuzhong to practice at the abandoned construction site, and Sun Luyuan no longer needed to focus on Yu Ruyi, so he also came along.

Before I went to Miaojiang, my life was basically two points and one line, thrift stores, abandoned construction sites, construction sites, thrift stores, often reverted, and I would focus most of my energy on cultivation.

In the first half of the seventh month of the solar calendar, Qiyun Mountain, Qingcheng Mountain, Mingyin Mountain, and Liulu Mountain sent congratulatory gifts, which are not valuable things, but just some cinnabar and rune paper, but no matter how to say a heart, I still miss it. In addition to congratulatory gifts, there are also letters written by the four major mountain gates, and I have also written replies carefully.

That is, from the day of the entrance of the congratulatory gift, the sky in Bohai Bay has completely changed.

The thrift stores were crowded from morning to night, and they were slowly getting out of his control on the hills of Bohai Bay, and the most loyal team around him were also transferred out of Bohai Bay one by one.

Don't get me wrong, it's not us who transferred these people, but those who want to show favor to thrift stores are secretly doing things, including some of the older ones.

To be honest, when I learned about this series of situations, I was not happy at all, but felt very sad. It seems that in the old couple's family, everyone's eyes are only focused on interests, and what blood and family affection is bullshit in their eyes.

This kind of thought has always been in my mind, and it is difficult to feel at ease.

On the 14th day of the seventh month of the solar calendar, I successfully summoned a bronze ghost gate, but I only let it last for three seconds, and then I fainted due to mental exhaustion.

This sleep was a full two days, during which there was no even a dream, according to practical terms, I was not in a coma at that time, but because my mind was completely emptied, and I entered a state of suspended animation, and if I was not careful, I might completely give my life to death.

I didn't expect that just letting the Bronze Ghost Gate last for three seconds would face such a huge risk.

Later, I tried to think back to the experience in the Savage Inner Mountain, fifty years later, I can summon nine bronze ghost gates at the same time, and it doesn't need to consume too much mental power, this seems to have nothing to do with the depth of cultivation, perhaps, there is a problem with my method of summoning ghost gates.

I remember when the savage Uchiyama summoned the Nine Bronze Ghost Gate, I once saw a bronze tripod engraved with the cloud map of Kyushu in my mind, if I guessed correctly, that thing should be the legendary Kyushu Ding.

It seems to be the key to summoning the Bronze Ghost Gate.

It's a pity that I only thought about this, as for how to make the "Kyushu Ding" emerge in my mind, I don't have any clue yet.

At the end of July, the family dispute between me and Yu Ru finally came to an end, and she submitted a challenge to the clan elders' association, challenging me.

Although I knew that this day would start sooner or later, I was still a little surprised when I learned the news.

Now he is no longer my opponent, and if he rashly challenges him, it is equivalent to sending himself to a dead end, and from what I know about him, he is not an impulsive person.

For this reason, I deliberately found a practical one and asked him for his opinion.

At that time, I was watching TV at Lao Wen's house, and as soon as I entered the door, he just glanced at me and knew what I was doing: "You are challenging you?" ”

It is estimated that the look on my face was a little anxious, which made the practicality see the flaws.

I nodded, stood at the door and said, "I don't think this is right, it is said that this person is like this, the city is deep, and his temperament is also calm, and he rashly challenged me, didn't he push himself to a dead end?" After all, with his ability, he couldn't go through a few rounds in front of me. ”

Practical smiled: "What do you think I've been busy with in the past six months?" ”

"What do you mean?" I'm a little puzzled.

Practical turned his body to me and said with a smile: "In the past six months, in addition to helping you stabilize Binhai East Road and Shen County, I have also cut off the news channels of Yu Ruyi, what you have done outside, what kind of opponents you have defeated, and what kind of people you have befriended, you almost don't know anything. ”

I frowned: "You mean, you don't know what I'm capable of, and I can't figure out what kind of connections I have?" ”

"Those connections in your hands, he must have figured it out now." Practical Lian Sheng still smiled: "As for your ability, he really doesn't understand." Not only do I not know your strengths, but I also don't know those who are in the top three subjects like you. In his own eyes, his cultivation strength is at the same level as Zuo Youdao. ”

Hearing him say this, I smiled and shook my head.

No wonder he challenged so quickly, he thought he would be able to beat me.
