Chapter 21: The Village Banquet
Everyone poured into the hall and saluted and congratulated the Mo Sect Master. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 Sect Master Mo reversed his usual weak and sluggish state, and greeted everyone with a smile on his face. At noon that day, a long line of long tables and chairs was placed on the avenue of the village. The villagers slaughtered chickens and cows, washed rice and fried meat, sacrificed to the gods and opened the altar, sang and toasted, a cheerful scene.
Granny Ye's face flushed slightly, and she also drank a lot of wine today. It seemed that she was used to being quiet, Granny Ye avoided the noisy crowd, came to a secluded house alone, sat on a big rock and sighed, after so many years, she had not been so happy for a long time.
"Oh, Granny Ye, you are hiding so quietly!" Patrol Master You Boss walked over with his hands behind his back, and from the blush on his face, he didn't drink less.
Granny Ye smiled and asked, "How is the sect leader?" ”
Boss You smiled and replied, "The old man has drunk some wine and has gone back to the house to sleep." Alas," Boss You sighed with emotion and continued, "It's been a long time since our house has been so lively. ”
Granny Ye pursed her lips and said with a smile: "It's all the blessing of the sect master, so that our family can add Ding to import." ”
Boss You nodded approvingly and said, "The old and the young in the family are also looking forward to your return." ”
Granny Ye hurriedly waved her hand and said, "Alas, I'm a lonely old woman, I can't do anything." ”
"Mother-in-law, you are too humble." Boss You quietly looked at the mountains and forests in the distance, thoughtful, as if he fell into a memory.
"Mother-in-law is really a good drinker." Boss Lin walked over with a smile on his face. "Master Ye Fang back then really lived up to his reputation, not only the apprentices he taught were all good hands in the family, but even the legendary amount of alcohol was undiminished!" Boss Lin laughed, picked up the wine gourd and poured a sip.
"Alas, I don't know how the sect leader sleeps, people are old, they can't eat wine." Boss You pressed down again on what he wanted to say, he nodded to Granny Ye as a goodbye, wrapped the coat wrapped around his shoulders, and walked away with his hands behind his back.
Seeing Boss You go away, Granny Ye turned around and said to Boss Lin with a smile: "Don't say what you said before." The current children just want Boss Lin to bother you. ”
"Mother-in-law, don't say that, how dare I, a junior, play tricks in front of you?" Boss Lin rolled his eyes and said, "The children are all good, especially Zheng Pei, who is not shallow. ”
Granny Ye smiled and said, "Mother-in-law, I am an old man, my brain is not good, I shouldn't have come out again to cause chaos at home." But because of the past, I always felt that I owed my family. Granny Ye rubbed her palms and said with emotion: "Zheng Pei, this child, although he is not very smart, I always feel that he is the kindness I owe to my family." I'm old, and I can't do other things well, and now I think that if I can cultivate this child with some ability and do something for the family, the little debt in my mother-in-law's heart will be repaid, and I can close my eyes even if I die. ”
Boss Lin nodded silently and said, "If this child can be ordered by Granny Ye herself, it will be a great blessing." ”
"If Boss Lin is willing to understand my wife's heart, when he is in heaven, I will take him back." Granny Ye stood up as she spoke, and this sentence was like asking.
"That's fine." Boss Lin took a sip of wine and said, "This child is blessed, how to discipline it, my mother-in-law will bother." But I always felt that this kid ......."
Granny Ye looked up at Boss Lin's meaningful gaze and asked with a smile, "Oh, what's wrong with this child?" ”
Boss Lin finally swallowed that sentence back into his stomach, and said curtly: "I just think this kid is a little naughty and not easy to discipline." ”
Granny Ye smiled: "Oh, boy, which one is easy to discipline?" ”
Boss Lin also smiled in agreement, and turned around with the wine gourd. Looking at his back, Granny Ye pursed her lips and smiled meaningfully.
"Mother-in-law!" Zheng Pei shouted at Granny Ye. He looked at Boss Lin who was walking towards him, and immediately dodged to the side, and staggered past him in the gaze of Boss Lin's knife and axe.
"What's wrong?" Granny Ye looked at Zheng Pei's forehead, which had a thin scar, and asked happily.
"Hmm......" Zheng Pei rubbed his nose and twisted it for a long time, and asked, "When are we leaving?" ”
Granny Ye smiled and said, "Oh, why are you so anxious about this child." Thanks to your injuries, heal quickly, if this is someone else, still lying in the house at this time to apply medicine! ”
Zheng Pei smiled embarrassedly, he knew that Granny Ye didn't lie to him. Of the few young men who opened the heavens this time, only his wound had been basically closed, and the best of the others' wounds was still a few millimeters wide. The worst of all was Ah Duo, whose wounds healed very slowly. Although she was protected by snake scales and did not die, her wound was still one centimeter wide. Even though the sect leader sent someone to take care of him day and night, Ah Duo still suffered from inflammation and bleeding every day.
Zheng Pei is most worried about Ah Duo, he will go to see her every day. It's not because of that unintentional sentence, but he knows what it's like to be alone, and he feels that he has already experienced the sadness of being helpless, and he can't watch Ah Duo die anymore.
Ah Duo seems to think the same way. Every time Zheng Pei went to see her, she was very happy, and when she had a bad headache, she would grab Zheng Pei's little finger and hold it tightly in her wet palm.
"Mother-in-law, I'm not in a hurry." Zheng Pei smiled and said, "I wanted to ask if we could stay here for a few more days." ”
Granny Ye's eyebrows lowered, and she seemed to understand something. She looked up at Zheng Pei and asked, "Aren't you in a hurry to go back to school?" Why aren't you in a hurry now? ”
Zheng Pei smiled and didn't speak.
"Nope." Granny Ye's expression changed suddenly, and she said coldly: "Don't delay yourself because of other things. Now that your eyes have been closed, we will leave early tomorrow morning. ”
"But ......," Zheng Pei said hurriedly.
"No, but!" Granny Ye immediately interrupted Zheng Pei, but she immediately said in a patient tone: "Although you have a lot of favorable conditions now, the cultivation in your body has been chaotic and cannot be fully integrated with your current divine body. At the same time, you will also disturb your own cultivation savings, and you will achieve nothing for the rest of your life. You should weigh it up for yourself. ”
Zheng Pei frowned tightly and did not speak. He heard the seriousness of the problem that Granny Ye said, but as soon as he remembered Ah Duo's pitiful eyes......
"And when will I be back?" Zheng Pei asked hopefully.
"You can come back whenever you want." Granny Ye said meaningfully: "But Mother-in-law advises you, some people, some things, are untouchable. ”
