Sixty-three

After the black cat finished communicating with Lao Zhang, he barked softly at Xiu Ming, as if to greet him, and then walked towards the window. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info seeing that it was leaving, Lao Zhang blurted out, "Wait!" The black cat stopped and looked back at Lao Zhang in confusion.

Lao Zhang gave Xiu Ming a look, Xiu Ming immediately understood what the master meant, took off the red blood bead from his neck, walked to the black cat and squatted down, and handed the bead to the black cat: "This is the red blood bead you gave me, although it is an old thing of my master, but after all, it was obtained by you, and you still keep it, which will be of great help to your cultivation." The black cat's face suddenly showed a very humane smile-like expression, which made Xiu Ming stunned. The black cat raised one of its front paws, pushed Xiu Ming's hand holding the bead back, then turned around and jumped out of the window, disappearing from everyone's view. Xiu Ming looked at the master, and Lao Zhang said: "Since this is the case, you can accept it with peace of mind, this is also an opportunity, cultivate the Tao well, don't lose its affection!" Xiu Ming said yes again and again, and put the red blood bead back on.

Father Gao watched all this from the side and sighed: "What a civet cat, with deep affection and gratitude, it is stronger than many people!" Just like that Xu Chang, my Gao family has no grievances with him, and he is so calculating with me, almost ruining my family, it's really better than a beast! Lao Zhang nodded approvingly, and his heart was also moved by the black cat.

After sitting down again, Lao Zhang said to Father Gao with some solemnity: What the black cat said is right, since you have repeatedly signed the symbol on the table and listened to the heavens, now you can only open the altar to change, and the incense and candles will not be extinguished for nine consecutive days, and the prayers will not stop. Continuously send the original situation and your intentions to Heaven in the hope that Heaven will understand. It's just that for nine consecutive days, can your two bodies withstand it? Father Gao said without hesitation: "Master rest assured, this is the trouble caused by Xu Chang's talent for a while, and we should bear the consequences." No matter how hard it is? It's just going to trouble Master Zhang! Lao Zhang waved his hand: "Don't be polite, old gentleman, this is what my cultivator should do, not to mention trouble, so please ask the old gentleman to go back first, and after three days of bathing and fasting, my master and apprentice will come to the door to open the altar." There are some things that you need to prepare in advance, so I'll write a list and bring them back with you. Hearing what the master said, Xiu Ming quickly brought a pen and paper and put it on the table. Lao Zhang thought for a while, picked up his pen and opened a detailed list and handed it to Gao's father. Father Gao took it and carefully put it away, got up and said goodbye. Lao Zhang got up to send him off, and motioned to Xiu Ming to carry the gift brought by Gao's father and follow behind. Seeing this, Father Gao hurriedly stopped and said that it was just a little careful, and asked the virtuous master and apprentice to laugh! Lao Zhang said very resolutely: "The old gentleman should remember what I said, this time, my master and apprentice will never receive the slightest gift from your mansion to prove our position, the cultivator promises a thousand gold, please understand the old gentleman!" Father Gao had no choice but to give up, turned around and got into the car and left.

Father Gao had just left, and before the master and apprentice could return to the room, another guest came to the door. This time it was Qiaoqiao's father, Meng Yan. Meng Yan said that the husband and wife were ready to leave to visit Qiaoqiao in Miao Village, and before leaving, they invited Lao Zhang and them to have a meal together, and asked them not to excuse themselves, and Lao Zhang readily agreed.

That night, Lao Zhang Xicheng came to Qiaoqiao's house with three apprentices. Qiao Qiao Niang has prepared a table of wine and food, although it is a remote place in Xiangxi Town, but Qiao Qiao Niang's craftsmanship is very exquisite, so that the guests can enjoy it and praise it. Everyone ate and talked, and it was very pleasant. Lao Zhang took out a delicate jade plaque and asked them to bring it to Qiaoqiao, which had the effect of protecting the body and preventing disasters, and Meng Yan and his wife were very grateful. Xiu Ming also blushed and took out the gift he gave Qiaoqiao, a very delicate chain, which happened to match the jade plate given by the master. Seeing this, the two senior brothers deliberately exaggerated the long "Oh... With a sigh, Xiu Ming's face was red all the way to the base of his neck. All four adults were smiling, but they were all smiling with bitterness.

Everyone laughed for a while, and finally got back to business. Lao Zhang and Xi Chengdu were a little worried about their couple's trip to Miao Village, after all, there was Xu Chang's poisonous snake, and they didn't know what moths would come out of, and they didn't know what dangers they would encounter. Meng Yan felt very relaxed: what they wanted was nothing more than the blood that Qiaoqiao could feed Gu, and now that Qiaoqiao and everyone were in Miao Village, what danger could they have? Lao Zhang and Xicheng were not as optimistic as they thought, they told Meng Yan and his wife about Xu Chang's actions, so that they could be mentally prepared for this person and not take it lightly. Xu Chang is ruthless, and will do whatever it takes to achieve his goal, so let them be careful!

Hearing Xu Chang's various evil deeds, Meng Yan and his wife were still a little surprised. They had a contact with Xu Chang and knew that this person was a person with bad intentions, but they didn't expect that they would be so vicious, and they were more cautious in their hearts. Xi Cheng suddenly thought of one thing, and said to Meng Yan: "Miao Village is a long way away, communication is not easy, if you really encounter any danger there, you will be isolated and helpless, and there is no way to help." In this way, you can keep the twin Gu that I borrowed last time, and you can warn you in case of trouble, and we can go over and save you! ”

Qiao Qiaoniang smiled bitterly: "Thank you for your kindness, but Miao Jiang is too far away, and the road will take at least a few days, even if you receive a warning to rescue, I'm afraid it's too late." Xicheng said: "I know, but it is much better than no one to help, unless we are worried about our lives in an instant, then we must be powerless." As long as it can be delayed for a few days, we will definitely be able to rush to the rescue! Lao Zhang also said: "That's right, Dawu is just Xu Chang's puppet now, and he has no power to protect your safety." In case Xu Chang has bad thoughts about you, as long as I am notified, my master and apprentice will not stand idly by! ”

Hearing Lao Zhang's master and apprentice say this, Meng Yan and his wife were very moved, Qiao Qiaoniang took out one of the twin Gu, handed it to Xi Cheng, and said with tears in her eyes: "I have been taking care of your master and apprentice all these years, and it is useless to say more words of gratitude, my husband and wife just keep it in their hearts, and I hope that they will have the opportunity to repay it in the future." Xi Cheng smiled: "You're welcome, as long as your husband and wife and mother and daughter are safe, we have been together in the town for many years, and we help each other in trouble." And why do you need to say anything that is not returned? I just hope that you and your wife will return soon, so that our master and apprentice will have the opportunity to taste your craft again. Lao Zhang glanced at his junior brother and scolded with a smile: "How old are you, you are still so greedy, you are not afraid that the apprentices will follow suit, and they are also a pair of foodies!" It made everyone laugh!

Early the next morning, Meng Yan and his wife set off for Miao Village. Lao Zhang and the others also began to prepare to go to Gao's house in three days. The road ahead is long, no one knows what kind of things will happen, but life always moves forward, and it is precisely because of the unknown that it is full of mystery and hope!
