Volume 2, Immeasurable Wind and Cloud Chapter 121, Repay Kindness
The moon is bright and the stars are scarce, overlooking the earth, and the outline of the city, the mountain topography is not much different from the mark on the territory map. It's here, Suncheon Castle.
The Golden-winged Roc flew towards a mountain col fifty miles southeast of Suncheon City, where it was the small village of Maple Leaf.
There are dozens of families in the small village of Maple Leaf, scattered in the mountain col, through which you can vaguely see the simple thatched huts and fenced yards.
Mo Han and the three of them flew down from the sky, and the golden-winged Dapeng quietly flew into the mountains and forests not far away and hid.
Under the moonlight, three black shadows fell from the sky like ghosts and landed on a huge tree.
There was no candlelight in the village, and it looked unusually quiet under the moonlight. Occasionally, two dog barks were heard, and the sound echoed through the mountains and forests twice before gradually disappearing, and the village returned to calm.
"Big brother, is that one?" Jian Chen's voice came from under a bulging cloak, and his voice became a little muffled due to the obscuration of the Ghost King's mask.
The courtyard of a thatched hut that Jianchen was referring to was surrounded by maple trees, and a chimney was erected on the leftmost one of the four thatched huts. A small fence yard is surrounded by waist-high branches, and all kinds of vegetables are planted in the small courtyard, and the green vegetables grow happily. Although it looks poor, it is an enviable and indifferent leisure life.
"It should be here, let's put away the cloak and mask so as not to scare them. Mo Han said.
Put away their masks and cloaks and put them in the storage ring, and the three of them flew down from the tall tree.
When I came to the small courtyard, I saw that the wooden fence door was not locked and locked, but it was just lightly covered. As soon as he pushed the door, he could enter, but Mo Han still knocked lightly on the door and shouted softly, "Is Ye Lao at home?"
Mo Han realized that Jian Chen and the Water Realm Heaven were imposing, and even if they consciously put it away, it made people feel extraordinary. said: "Don't scare others if you two converge, or stand far away first, and I'll tell you to come over again." ”
Jian Chen said with disdain: "Big brother, you are a big man of nine meters, and you are even more terrifying with a murderous aura. ”
"I'm hiding it well, and I'm a little elegant in other people's words, farther away, farther away. Mo Han urged the two to stand far away.
Jian Chen and Shui Jingtian reluctantly walked under the maple tree not far away, the shadow of the moonlight blurred and it was not easy to detect at a glance.
Mo Han screamed a few more times, and a dim glow lit up in a small room near the kitchen. The window reflected the movement of a figure draped in a robe, and the figure moved towards the small wooden door before hearing the creaking of the door opening.
"Who?" said an old man's voice, which was warm and hearty, and he could even imagine the kind wrinkles on his forehead.
It was just that his voice trembled slightly, was it fear?Mo Han sensed from the subtle voice that the old man should be worried, because it didn't match his temperament.
Mo Han responded humbly: "Old Ye, I'm sorry. ”
When he didn't confirm the identity of the old man, Mo Han didn't plan to tell him his true identity. In addition, the night is quiet, and the sound will travel far away, so as not to leak the wind.
The old man had a tough body, and his silver-white hair and long beard stood out in the moonlight. He was holding a shoulder-high wooden stick in his hand, and his eyes kept watching Mo Han outside the door.
After seeing Mo Han, the old man's heart relaxed a lot, he stuck the wooden stick into the loose soil in the vegetable garden, and asked Lehehe: "It's so late, why is the young man in our small village, come in quickly." ”
The farmers in the small village of Maple Leaf mainly rely on hunting, and there is still a small amount of land to grow some food crops to make a living. Except for the people who collect the skins, few outsiders set foot here. The old man saw that Mo Han was extraordinary, humble and polite, and he should be the young master of a big family, and he had some doubts in his heart.
The old man parted the wooden barrage that was hidden, and Mo Han bowed and said, "You are Ye Lao, right?"
"Oh, I am. Are you?" Ye Lao Ci frowned kindly, looked Mo Han up and down and asked.
Mo Han said with a smile: "The junior is called Mo Han, my master is called Chen, you saved his life back then, and he asked him to visit your old man's house." ”
"Dusty?" Ye Lao turned his head and recalled that he had indeed saved a young man, and at that time there was not much difference in age from the young man in front of him, but his name was very rusty.
Mo Han suddenly remembered that his master had changed his name to Chen after entering the Infinite Realm, and he used to be called Stegosaurus. Hurriedly smiled: "Oh, he used to be called Stegosaurus, Stegosaurus, hehe." ”
"Oh! Ah Long! I remember, I remember!" the old man patted his forehead, very surprised and surprised, treated Mo Han as his own family, and hurriedly said: "I almost forgot about it for so long, look at me... Come in, come in, kid. ”
Mo Han was pulled by the old man's wrist and turned around to leave the house, feeling the rough and warm person on the old man's hands, Mo Han was very moved in his heart, and suddenly became a little restrained, and said, "There are two juniors and disciples who came with me?"
"Where?" Ye Lao heard Mo Han say that there were still two junior disciples, and his heart was even more happy, as if he had won honor for himself.
Jian Chen and Shui Jingtian walked out from the shade of the tree with a stupid smile, they were afraid of scaring Ye Lao and trying to be cute and harmless to humans and animals.
Ye Lao saw that Jianchen and Shui Jingtian were also good-looking, just like his juniors, and he felt a sense of pride inexplicably in his heart, and he seemed a little excited. said: "Why are you standing so far when you get home, come into the house, enter the house!"
After entering the house, Ye Lao hurriedly lit the oil lamp, and hurriedly found a small wooden stool for the three of them. He said with a smile: "There are few guests at home, and there is no tea available." I'm going to get you some fruit, which I just picked today, and it's very fresh. ”
After the three of them entered the hut, it seemed a little crowded, and there was a painting hanging on the back wall of the house, plum blossoms blooming, falling flowers were colorful, and the paper of the picture scroll was yellow, which seemed to be some years. Beneath the flower rolls is a foot-wide long table with some offerings, as if there are always prayers to the gods.
A small table was placed in the middle of the room, and Ye Lao took back two wooden stools from outside the house, just enough for four wooden stools.
After taking back the wooden stool, Ye Lao said, "Sit down, I'll go get the fruit." ”
"Ye Lao, no.." Jian Chen raised his hand and was pressed down by Mo Han.
Jian Chen understood what Mo Han meant, Ye Lao could entertain Ye Guozi, if he didn't let him express his intentions, I am afraid he would feel that the hospitality was inadequate.
Ye Lao trotted into the house with a bamboo basket, put the bamboo basket on the table and saw that the three of them were about to stand up in a hurry, and hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Sit down, taste the fruit, there is nothing to entertain at home, and I will go to the city to buy some wine and food." ”
Jianchen picked up a red wild fruit, wiped off the water droplets on it, clicked and bit it, crunched and chewed: "Well, well, it's still a wild fruit sweet." ”
Seeing that Jianchen was eating so fragrantly, Shui Jingtian couldn't help but pick up a fruit and eat it, and when he took a bite, it was crisp and refreshing, and there was no image of a young master with brocade clothes and jade food at all.
Ye Lao looked at Mo Han and the three of them back and forth, his somewhat dim eyes were full of pride, and he couldn't help nodding.
Mo Han picked up a fruit, took a bite and chewed it and asked, "Old Ye, these are my two junior brothers." ”
"Ye Lao, my name is Jianchen. ”
"My name is Water Realm. ”
Jianchen and Water Realm Heaven reported their names.
"Okay, good!" Ye Lao couldn't stop nodding with a smile, as if his children and grandchildren were promising, and he was very satisfied.
"Grandpa," the boy's voice came from the doorway.
Mo Han looked like a boy was seven or eight years old. He has shaggy hair and wears the same linen clothes as the old man. He leaned out halfway out of his hands on the door frame, a little scared to get in.
"I'll talk to a few brothers, and Xiao Yi will go to bed first, ah. Ye Lao said kindly.
"Oh..."Xiao Yi was full of curiosity about the three of them, his eyes were a little timid, and he reluctantly shrank back.
"Hehe, my little grandson, since he was a child, he has been collecting medicine with me since he was a child, and he has been sticking to me since he was a child, and he also sleeps with him at night. Ye Lao talked about the love in his little grandson's eyes.
Mo Han used his spiritual power to probe the surroundings, only to find Ye Lao and Xiao Yi, he had some doubts in his heart, and asked, "Ye Lao, do Xiao Yi's parents also live here?"
Ye Lao was stunned for a moment, his face changed slightly, he immediately covered up the past, smiled a little reluctantly, and said, "They went to the city to sell skins, and they will come back in about these two days." ”
Mo Han heard that his voice was no longer loud, and his confidence was insufficient, and he said that in the end, it was obvious that he was dealing with the problem. Looks like something is wrong...
Jian Chen and Shui Jing Tian also discovered what Ye Lao was hiding about, and the three of them quietly asked about the village and the things they had rescued before.
Mo Han gave Jianchen a look, Jianchen stood up and raised his arms, and said, "I'll go out for convenience." ”
Ye Lao hurriedly stood up and said, "Let's go, it's hard to find a toilet, I'll take you there." ”
Mo Han sat Ye Lao down and said, "You just let him go by himself, there are places everywhere out of the courtyard." ”
Ye Lao smiled heartily: "It's in our vegetable garden, just be a fertilizer!"
Shui Jingtian had never encountered such a situation, and he was happy with his eyes covered and smiling.
Jian Chen walked out of the hut, walked around the courtyard and saw that the lights of the house where Ye Lao and Xiao Yi lived were still on, and quietly walked to the door.
'Squeak-'
After the door opened, Xiao Yi raised his head and saw Jianchen, who stretched out his index finger and shrugged him, signaling him not to speak loudly.
Jianchen walked in and closed the door, and said with a smile: "Xiao Yi, how about Brother Jianchen play tricks for you?"
"Really, Brother Jianchen can play tricks?" Xiao Yi's eyes lit up and he leaned out of the bed.
Jianchen said proudly: "Look at it!"
Jianchen stretched out his index finger and shook it, and pointed it on the small table next to the bed, and after luck, his legs slowly left the ground, and finally his whole body was suspended in the air.
"Wow, you can hold it up with one finger?" Xiao Yi said with his palms open but not together.
"What? I don't need finger support. Jian Chen's fingers secretly exerted force, and his huge body swirled and flew like a light swallow in the narrow thatched hut.
Xiao Yi was pleasantly surprised: "Brother Jianchen, can you teach me kung fu?"
Jianchen landed, clapped his hands and said, "Of course it's no problem, why do you want to learn kung fu first!"
"I want to avenge my parents!" Xiao Yi clenched his fists and said fiercely.
Jian Chen touched his furry head and smiled, "Well, manly. Then tell my brother who did to your parents!"
"Ah Hu secretly told me that his parents said that my parents were arrested when they went to Suncheon City to sell skins, and a person surnamed Qian still wants to marry my mother, or kill my father!" Xiao Yi gritted his teeth.
A child who encountered bad news actually behaved like this, Jianchen was very sad and admired this little guy.
"Who is Ah Hu?" Jian Chen wanted to make sure of the accuracy of the information.
"Ah Hu lives under the big maple tree over there, and he told me secretly, and he said that his family would not let him talk about it. Xiao Yi pointed in one direction, which should be the direction of the big maple tree.
"Sleep well now, and my parents will be back when I wake up tomorrow. Jianchen patted Xiao Yi's head and smiled.
"Really, Brother Jianchen, don't lie to me!" Xiao Yi asked looking at Jianchen's eyes expectantly.
Jianchen stretched out his little finger and said, "How could I lie to you if I'm so powerful, come, pull the hook!"
"Pull the hook!hahaha!" Xiao Yi believed in Jianchen very much, and he believed that the three brothers would bring their parents back.
