Chapter 21: In the Village
Back at home, Zhou Tianshen put down the bamboo basket, put the herbs inside together with the previous ones, and put the book he had bought in the library under his pillow, where a brown book was still lying. It was still early, Zhou Tianshen's father Zhou Qian should still be busy in the fields and not at home, and his mother Sun Tianchan would usually be with Bai Xiaosheng's mother Yan Meidi and Ma Xiandi's mother Miao Xian at this time, chatting about family life and talking about female workers.
Zhou Tianshen walked into the kitchen, took out the wooden bucket behind the door, came to the well in the yard, took out the wooden scoop in the wooden bucket, wrapped the wooden bucket with a thick rope, gently put it into the well, waited until the wooden bucket was filled with water, and then lifted the bucket up with the wooden wheel next to the well, picked up the wooden scoop at his feet, came to the corner of the yard where the vegetable field was planted, patiently watered the vegetable field, the vegetable field was planted with ordinary vegetables, and when the fruit was ripe in a few days, it could be eaten. After watering the vegetable field, Zhou Tianshen grabbed a handful of grain with one hand, held the wooden scoop with the other hand, and made a 'clucking' sound in his mouth, and came to the chicken coop, the two hens in the chicken coop squatted on the hay, raised their heads and looked out from time to time, looking very bored, Zhou Tianshen pushed open the small wooden door of the chicken coop, bent down and walked in, poured the food and water into a small broken bowl and a sink made of wood respectively, the hen saw the food and water, fluttered her wings and crowded to Zhou Tianshen's feet, almost squeezed him out of the chicken coop. Zhou Tianshen raised the wooden scoop and waved it in a bluff, but the hen was not afraid at all, and she didn't even care about what Zhou Tianshen was doing, just blindly eating and drinking.
Zhou Tianshen walked out of the chicken coop, closed the small wooden door, turned his head to look at the hens who were full of food and drink, and nested together, and said, "I'll stew you sooner or later." ”
Zhou Tianshen walked into the kitchen angrily, put away the wooden scoop, and walked straight into the hall, silently in his heart, even you bully me.
However, looking at the bright and spacious hall around him, he was quickly relieved, if he had been locked up in such a small place, he would be so indifferent.
Time always flies quickly inadvertently, just when Zhou Tianshen put the herbs together, wanted to get it to the martial arts hall tomorrow, and then lay in the martial arts hall and read a book for a while, and when he woke up from his sleep again, it was already evening, Sun Tiancian had already come back from outside, holding some cloth and wine and food in his hand, presumably the cloth was taken from the grocery store, and the wine and food, as soon as he smelled the taste, he knew that it was from the back kitchen of the inn, because the whole village, only the white fat man who was the chef of the inn could make such a fragrant meal.
Zhou Tianshen walked out of the house energetically and came to the kitchen, Sun Tianchan was busy cutting the roast chicken into pieces in front of the board, Zhou Tianshen picked up the chicken leg and took a bite of oil, Sun Tianchan saw it, wiped the oil from the corner of his mouth for him and smiled, "It's greedy, I haven't eaten meat for a long time." ”
Zhou Tianshen swallowed the chicken in his mouth, wanting to take a sip of wine to moisten his throat, but before he could pick up the wine jug, he was slapped on the back of his hand by Sun Tiancian, Sun Tianchan frowned and said, "There is already an alcoholic in the family, how old are you, you start drinking, you are not allowed to drink." ”
Zhou Tianshen pursed his lips and continued to nibble on the chicken leg in his hand, Sun Tianchan put the wine jug in a place where Zhou Tianshen couldn't reach, turned around, and picked out a chicken leg and several pieces of meat for him, put them in a bowl, and took out a bowl of vegetable soup from the pot, there were a few vegetable leaves floating on the vegetable soup, except for a few drops of oil stars on the soup noodles, there was almost no difference between vegetable soup and white water, this didn't need to look at it to know that it was Sun Tianchan's masterpiece.
Sun Tiancian brought the bowl containing vegetable soup and roast chicken to the stone table in the middle of the courtyard and said, "Your father will come back later today, let's eat first, don't wait for him, just leave some for him." ”
Zhou Tianshen had already eaten two chicken legs, raised his head and poured the vegetable soup into his stomach, wiped his mouth, and had a long burp, Zhou Tianshen said, "I'm full, go out for a walk." ”
Sun Tiancian stretched out half of his body from the kitchen and shouted at Zhou Tianshen's back, "Come back early." ”
As soon as he walked out of the courtyard gate, the young man walked to the village as if he had changed a person, his face was slightly indifferent, and occasionally he passed by a few villagers with hoes, and only whispered hello.
Different from the early morning, in the evening, the villagers who have been busy all day return to their homes one after another, bring out the meals that have already been prepared, and squat at the door of the house to eat, some neighbors who are close to each other will taste each other, and even more, they will pull those who have not cooked or are preparing to cook, to come to their own homes as guests, in fact, there is no other meaning, just simply the family food can not be eaten.
Coarse tea and light rice, half a bowl of burnt knives.
The shops closed one after another, and even though they were closed, they were actually just lowering the curtain to cover half of the door, and the remaining half was allowed to enter at will.
Zhou Tianshen didn't walk into the inn, just stood at the door and waited, and after a while, Wang Duozhan, who was holding half of the meat bun in his hand, came out of the inn, and said with a bulging mouth, "What are you looking for me?"
Zhou Tianshen pointed to Wang Duo's clothes, which were covered with black dirt, "I'm full, I can't sleep, come out for a walk, do you want to change your clothes?"
Wang Duozhan walked in front indifferently, "It's okay, I have to wash it anyway, now that I change it, won't I have to wash two sets of clothes tomorrow, I'm not stupid." ”
Zhou Tianshen followed, a little confused, "Where are you going?"
Wang Duozhan ate the last bite of the bun and rubbed it twice on his pants, "Find my cousin, it's okay anyway, it's lively when there are more people." ”
The two came to the mouth of an alley that was wide and narrow enough to pass through a carriage, the alley was very short, and there was only one family living in it. ”
It didn't take long for a low-headed boy with a lantern to come out of the dim alley, "Here, here." ”
Wang Duo tilted his head and asked, "It's not dark yet, what are you doing with the lantern?" ”
The boy with his head bowed his head put the lantern on the wall next to the alley, the light was very weak, but it was just enough to light the way home, and the boy explained, "My mother said that my father would come back very late, and this lantern was for him to show the way." ”
Wang Duozhan stood under the lantern, looking at the gap at the bottom, there was a weak flame burning in the lantern, the night breeze blew lightly, and the flames were erratic, "My father is not at home, I heard my mother say that he went to the mountain to chop firewood, and I don't know when he will come back." ”
The boy asked, "What are you looking for me?"
Zhou Tianshen said, "Tomorrow is going to be a cultivator, today everyone gathers, by the way, I will find An Shi to inquire about the situation." ”
Wang Duozhan tapped the lantern with his fingers, and the flames swayed from side to side, "Such a small lantern, will it be extinguished soon?"
The young man stood on tiptoe and looked down from above, just enough to see Wang Duo's chubby little face through the gap, "It's obviously big, it's too big, you eat fat again, like a meatball." ”
The boy who believed that one more point was one point got up and kicked Wang Cunyuan's leg and stomach, Wang Cunyuan cooperated and squatted on the ground, covering his calf that didn't have much flesh and shouted pain, and the boy immediately made a handsome action, "Young man, I advise you not to go against me." ”
Zhou Tianshen smiled and helped Wang Cunyuan up, and looked at the boy who maintained the independent posture of the golden rooster, "Who did you learn this from?"
The boy held his forehead and threw his broken hair on the top of his head, "What does the book say, is it handsome?"
Wang Cunyuan gave a thumbs up, Zhou Tianshen looked behind him with a smile, there was still an alley there, but there was no lantern lighting, and it looked dim, out of the alley came a white-clothed young man with a folding fan in his hand, the white-clothed young man was graceful, gentle and polite, walked to the middle of the three, opened the folding fan, and gently fanned it on his chest, the fire in the lantern shone on the clothes of the white-clothed young man, adding a brilliance to it, and the white-clothed young man showed off, "See, this is called handsome." ”
Wang Duo pouted, his feet stepped on the new shoes of the young man in white, and quickly bounced away, two shoe prints appeared on the upper of the shoes instantly, and the young man in white roared and pounced on the boy, ignoring the new clothes on his body, the two instantly scuffled together.
Wang Cunyuan stood in place, not knowing how to pull the frame, while Zhou Tianshen took a step back in order to make himself see more clearly. Just when one person was in a hurry and the other was watching the excitement, two flying swords fell from the sky crookedly, just in front of the two people lying on the ground, and the two who had just let go were hugged together again.
A flash of light flashed from the center of the village, and Lu Anshi's figure immediately appeared, "It's so lively." ”
Wang Duozhan and Bai Xiaosheng quickly got up from the ground, and Wang Duozan roared angrily, "You almost killed the two of us." ”
Lu Anshi pulled out the short sword inserted in the ground, put it in his sleeve, and comforted, "Don't worry, I have a sense of proportion, and I won't hurt you." ”
Seeing Lu Anshi's flying sword, Zhou Tianshen was quite curious about Lu Anshi's realm, and asked at the moment, "What realm is Brother Lu now." ”
Lu Anshi thought for a moment, "Erguan of the Human Kui Realm, oh, you want to ask me how I manipulate the flying sword." ”
The twelve-year-old Kui Realm cultivation is already regarded as a gifted person, no worse than the descendants of the six major sects.
Zhou Tianshen nodded.
Lu Anshi took out the short swords in his sleeve and made them levitate above his palm, explaining, "Because I chose the way of the sword, and these two swords were made by me myself, and before the furnace was opened, I deliberately took the blood of my palm, so I have a heart-to-heart relationship with them, and it is easier to control than other swordsmen, but it is still far from the real flying sword." ”
Zhou Tianshen suddenly thought of the swordsmen who had drawn their swords at the door of the Dayu Inn and were carrying wooden boxes on their backs, especially the one standing on top of the flying sword.
Talking about this, Wang Cunyuan, who had never spoken again since the appearance of the young man in white, asked softly, "Do we also want to choose the way of the sword when we cultivate?"
Also confused are Wang Duozhan who is standing aside and angry, and Bai Xiaosheng, who is only now beginning to feel sorry for his dirty clothes, as for Zhou Tianshen, he has already decided his direction as early as the day he decided to cultivate.
Lu Anshi, who put away the short sword, shook his head, "This depends on your own mind, if you like it, you can choose kendo, of course, you can also choose others, others have no right to make decisions for you." ”
The cowardly boy spoke up again, "But I don't know what I should choose. ”
Lu Anshi stretched his waist and let out a long sigh, and at this time he put his lazy hands in his sleeves, "Don't worry too much about this, you haven't been in contact with the field of cultivation, so you will naturally be confused, and when you reach the tenth level of quenching, that is, when you are about to reach the talent realm, you will know what the field you are best at, and it will not be too late to make a choice at that time." ”
Everyone was relieved.
Zhou Tianshen looked around, the sky had already darkened at this time, and the surroundings were plunged into darkness, except for the lantern on the wall of the alley on the left side of the alley, which emitted a faint light.
Zhou Tianshen proposed, "Otherwise, gather everyone and go to the seventh floor of the inn, where you can stand in the pavilion and see the scenery in the mountains." ”
Bai Xiaosheng echoed, "I think it's okay, it's okay anyway, then let my father cook some delicious food, and we can sit until dawn." ”
Wang Cunyuan was already a little sleepy, "It's okay to stay for a while, if you stay overnight, my mother will scold me." ”
Bai Xiaosheng poked Wang Duo's thin waist with his elbow, "I heard that Uncle Wang has made some new acacia cakes, I think you can go to the back kitchen and get some out." ”
The little boy, who was still angry on the side, pouted and wiped his nose with his sleeve, "I won't give it to you." ”
Bai Xiaosheng didn't care, and said with a smile, "If you don't give it, you won't give it, when you get to Uncle Meng's martial arts hall tomorrow, don't cry, don't come to me when the time comes." ”
At this time, Lu Anshi spoke, he said, "Let's discuss who is going to find the others, and if we continue to talk like this, it will be dawn." ”
Wang Duozhan raised his hand and volunteered, "Zhou Tianshen and I will go to find Xiandi and Zishan, and you go to find others." ”
Lu Anshi nodded, "We'll meet at the Buliu Inn." ”
Before the words fell, Wang Duozhan pulled Zhou Tianshen and ran towards the center of the village, only to hear him shout at the top of his voice, "Look who can run fast." ”
Bai Xiaosheng was speechless and said, "Isn't he cheating." ”
Wang Cunyuan suddenly said, "It's okay, I know a path." ”
Five people, the soldiers are divided into two ways.
Wang Duozhan pulled Zhou Tianshen, panting to the forest shop, and met a farmer with a hoe, the farmer was followed by a silver-white bearded old man, the old man was wearing a precious robe, a red gourd pinned to his waist, the gourd was painted with an iron tower, the iron tower has ten layers, the layers are distinct, only a black line is connected in the middle, the old man is still holding a dead branch in his hand, there are only ten leaves on the branch, at this time, the bottom of the leaf, has been yellowed, and it is about to wither, the farmer smiled and asked, " What's wrong with you two guys, tired like this?"
Wang Duozhan waved his hand, "We're competing, don't bother me." ”
The farmer, carrying a hoe, walked past the two of them, "This kid." ”
When the white-bearded old man passed by the two, he laughed out loud for some reason, and then followed the farmer into a low house, Zhou Tianshen knew that it was Grandpa Kou's room, and it seemed that Grandpa Kou's friend had come to visit him.
It was late at night, and the shop in the forest had already closed, just from the little lights peeking out of the crack in the door, it could be judged that the people inside had not rested, Wang Duozhan stepped forward and smashed the door, shouting, "Tie Zishan, come out quickly, I will only give you ten seconds." ”
Zhou Tianshen took Wang Duo's little hand, "How can you call people like this." ”
The little boy didn't care and said, "It's okay, I have a good relationship with Uncle Tie, he won't care." ”
Zhou Tianshen still felt that something was not right, but fortunately, the wooden door of the forest shop opened, Tie Liu stretched out his head, and asked with a tired face, "What are you looking for Zishan?"
Zhou Tianshen was afraid that Wang Duozhen would say the wrong thing, so he hurriedly explained, "Uncle Tie, we are going to have a party and want to invite Zishan to join. ”
Tieliu completely opened the wooden door, and the light followed the doorway and shone directly on the village road.
Tie Liu said, "You guys come in first and wait, Zishan and Xiandi are in her own room, I'll call them out." ”
It didn't take long for Tie Liu to lead Tie Zishan, who was eating steamed buns, and Ma Xiandi, who was holding an apple in her hand, to the shop.
Tie Zishan put down the bun in his hand, "What are you doing here?"
Zhou Tianshen repeated what he had said before.
Tie Liu had already walked into the backyard, and before leaving, he told Tie Zishan to get along with other people, don't be too strong, after Tie Liu left, Tie Zishan sat on the counter with a big grin, no matter what valuables were placed on it.
Tie Zishan looked at Zhou Tianshen and the others condescendingly, and ate all the buns in his hand, "It's really strange to come to us in the middle of the night, say, what are your intentions for me?"
Wang Duozhan is a big ghost, jumped in front of Tie Zishan with an arrow step, and was so frightened that Tie Zishan fell directly to the ground from the counter, Ma Xiandi, who was standing aside, helped her up, and helped her pat the dust on her body, Tie Zishan said angrily, "Wang Duozhan, what are you doing, believe it or not, I cut you!"
Wang Duo crossed his arms around his chest, spread his legs wide, tilted his head, and looked at the corner of the shop, "Just like you, who will take a fancy to you and have intentions for you, I think you are a wild monster and read too many novels." ”
Zhou Tianshen directly knocked a chestnut on the little boy's head, "I think you have read too many novels, look at the good things you have done, don't you have to compete with others, what are you doing." ”
Wang Duo said unconvinced, "It's not all my responsibility." ”
Tie Zishan gritted her teeth and said, "Wang Duozhen, you have offended me, hmph, wait." ”
Ma Xiandi helped Tie Zishan to the bamboo chair and kneaded the place where she had fallen, "Dip, you are indeed a little excessive." ”
Zhou Tianshen said, "I think you should rest first, and don't go to the party." ”
Tie Zishan stood up with the bamboo chair in her hand and walked out the door, "Go, why don't you go." ”
Ma Xiandi smiled bitterly, "You don't know Zishan, she's like this." ”
Wang Duozhan looked at Tie Zishan's back, stuck out his tongue and said, "What is fierce, tigress." ”
Zhou Tianshen pushed Wang Duozhan out of the store, turned around and closed the door of the store.
The four of them walked towards the inn.
——————
Jin Dashan is a blacksmith in Laohuai Village, all year round, all the time is either striking iron, or preparing tools and materials for ironmaking, therefore, the villagers like to call him Jin Blacksmith, but they don't know his original name. The night was quiet, and for the blacksmith, it was exactly what was needed to strike iron.
In order not to disturb his wife and children, he specially dug a dark room in the courtyard of his house, and put all the iron tools in the dark room, where he usually struck iron.
As early as a month ago, Meng Cheng asked the gold blacksmith to make a knife for him, after a month of forging, the weapon has been formed, and tonight is the time to open the furnace.
Just as the blacksmith and his son Jin Quanyi were preparing tools in the courtyard, the iron gate that had never been locked was pushed open, and both of them looked up at the same time and looked out silently.
Lu Anshi walked in from outside, Bai Xiaosheng and Wang Cunyuan followed, Lu Anshi said, "Uncle Jin, long time no see." ”
Seeing the person coming clearly, the gold blacksmith put down the dry firewood in his hand and said with a sincere smile, "It turned out to be An Shi, I thought it was your Uncle Meng, it's so late, what is the matter with me?"
Lu Anshi looked behind the gold blacksmith, and in the shadows stood a silent giant, also fourteen years old, but Jin Quanyi already had his father's height, Lu Anshi said, "We have prepared a party and want to invite Quanyi to participate. ”
The gold blacksmith nodded and said, "I see, Quanyi, what are you still doing standing there, everyone is here at Anshi, and you don't say hello." ”
Jin Quanyi was willing to come out of the shadows at this time, unlike Wang Cunyuan's cowardice, Jin Quanyi's reticence was not shyness and timidity, but he preferred to be alone, to strike iron alone, to eat alone, and to do what he wanted to do, which is also the reason why the gold blacksmith was willing to teach him to strike iron, because only by being focused enough can he do one thing well.
Jin Quanyi's voice was completely in line with his height, rough but gentle, "Brother Anshi, I won't go, my father is going to open the furnace today, and I want to stay and help him." ”
The gold blacksmith slapped his son on the back of the head, "What can you help me, people come to invite you, it's looking at you, don't go over quickly." ”
Jin Quanyi lowered his head and scratched the back of his head, "Then what do you do?"
The gold blacksmith picked up the dry firewood and carried it directly on his shoulder, "Your father is not old, and it is not that he can't beat iron by himself, not to mention that your mother is also there." ”
Jin Quanyi nodded silently and walked to Lu Anshi's side.
Lu Anshi said, "Don't worry, Uncle Jin, Quanyi will be back soon." ”
The four of them walked out of the courtyard.
On the way, Kim Quanyi asked, "Why are you having a party?"
Bai Xiaosheng explained, "From tomorrow onwards, we will be cultivators, so we will celebrate today first. ”
Jin Quanyi was puzzled, "What are you celebrating?"
Bai Xiaosheng shook his head and said imaginatively, "You think, when we become cultivators, in order to cultivate the Dao, in order to become immortals as soon as possible, it will definitely take a lot of time, and at that time, there will be no time to celebrate." ”
Jin Quanyi said, "I don't want to become an immortal, I just want to strike iron well, and when my father and mother are old, I will change them to a better, bigger house and take good care of them." ”
Lu Anshi patted Jin Quanyi's arm, "This is also the wish of all of us." ”
Bai Xiaosheng said angrily, "Wang Duo touched that stinky boy, it was clear that it was deliberate, let's find three people, they only need to find two people, and in the end, they must have arrived at the inn one step earlier." ”
Lu Anshi said with a smile, "Didn't Cunyuan say that he knows a path, Cunyuan, where is the path you are talking about, hasn't it arrived yet?"
Wang Cunyuan, who was walking in the front, turned his head and said nervously, "Actually, it's not a small road, I just often see Ruhan and Sansi there, and it's relatively close to the inn, but I don't know if they're still there today." ”
Bai Xiaosheng snorted and said, "I've been talking for a long time, where is that place?"
Wang Cunyuan turned his head and looked at both sides, "When I arrived, I just walked in front of me." ”
Wang Cunyuan led the three of them to a secluded mountain road, and there were fluorescent insects that could emit faint fluorescence on both sides of the mountain road.
The road grew wider and wider, and at last it could accommodate four wagons side by side, and at the end of the road was a large stone ten meters high, and at this time, the stone was full of small holes, and two lanterns were inserted in the small holes.
Bai Xiaosheng said curiously, "This place, I seem to have seen it somewhere, but I can't remember it for a while." ”
Wang Cunyuan reminded, "When I was a child, we didn't often play hide and seek, and this is where I hid. ”
After Wang Cunyuan's reminder, Bai Xiaosheng finally remembered, "Oh, I remember, you also brought me to this place, no wonder it looks familiar." ”
The four of them approached the stone and saw two thin figures squatting in front of the stone, and there was a small fire in the middle of the two, on which something was roasting, emitting a burst of fragrance.
Wang Cunyuan said, "Those two are Ruhan and Sansi, they often bake and eat here. ”
Bai Xiaosheng became resentful again, "These two guys are really too much, it's not the first time that they have secretly eaten from us." ”
Bai Xiaosheng proposed that the four of them quietly walk over and be sure to question them face to face.
Taking advantage of the thick night, the four of them quietly walked behind the two, and suddenly, Bai Xiaosheng kicked on the fire, sparks splashed, and the things roasted on the fire were also kicked aside, and they rolled on the ground several times, not knowing if they could eat it.
One of the figures squatting on the ground quickly got up and kicked out, seeing that he was about to kick Bai Xiaosheng's calf, but Lu Anshi was in the middle of it at this time, pulling Bai Xiaosheng to the side, and hurriedly spoke, "Ruhan, it's me, Lu Anshi." ”
At this time, the other figure also quickly got up, took off the lantern, and shone it in front of him, Lu Anshi looked at the two of them with a smile, "Ruhan, I didn't expect your cultivation to improve again." ”
Meng Ruhan is the son of Meng Cheng, who has followed his father since he was a child, and he has been familiar with martial arts and cultivation, although he arrived at the talent realm a little later than Lu Anshi, but Lu Anshi is older than him, just by virtue of talent, even Lu Anshi admits that he is not as good as him, although the young man is inevitably a little arrogant.
Meng Ruhan turned sideways, squinted at the cowardly little student hiding behind Lu Anshi, and said unhurriedly, "You have to compensate me for a roast chicken." ”
Lu Anshi knew Meng Ruhan's temperament, although he was a little arrogant, but he was a member of the same village and grew up together, so he naturally wouldn't really worry about Bai Xiaosheng, but Bai Xiaosheng was really impulsive this time, so it would be good for him to learn some lessons.
I saw Bai Xiaosheng walking out from behind Lu Anshi, picking up the roast chicken that was already covered with soil, removing the clods on it, and eating it in a big gulp, "Look, it's not that you can't eat it." ”
The martial arts boy didn't say much, he naturally wouldn't really go against Bai Xiaosheng, from beginning to end, he had only one opponent, that is, Lu Anshi, who refused his father's kindness and switched to him.
The martial arts hall boy turned around and faced Lu Anshi for the first time, "Something?"
Lu Anshi took a step forward, "If I want to find you to join the party, I will stay at the inn." ”
The martial arts boy also took a step forward, "What's the matter?"
Lu Anshi was silent for a moment, and finally took a step back, "Tomorrow they will also start cultivating, today should be celebrated for them in advance." ”
The martial arts boy moved his wrist and made a crackling sound, "Let's go." ”
The thin young man with the lantern in his hand followed behind the martial arts hall boy, and walked with him through a human-height cave next to the stone, and the other three people also passed through the cave one after another after getting Wang Cunyuan's accurate answer, and there was also a path behind the cave entrance, it seems that this is the shortcut road in Wang Cunyuan's mouth, the path is very short, and the end is the backyard of the inn, the young man of the martial arts hall pushed the door and entered, and the remaining five people followed, and when they came to the seventh floor of the inn together, they heard Wang Duozhen's laughter," They came late, and we won. ”
Hearing this, the martial arts hall boy stopped, and waited until Lu Anshi walked past him before he took another step, and the martial arts hall young man said, "You should have looked for me earlier." ”
Lu Anshi's face was full of apologies, and he stepped into the pavilion early, "It's me who was negligent." ”
Ten people settled down and sat around a long table filled with snacks and drinks.
Wang Duozhan picked up the wine jug and poured a glass of wine for everyone, the taste of the wine was very light, slightly bitter with a little acacia flower flavor, Zhou Tianshen took a sip slightly, the taste was good, it can be said that it is suitable for all ages.
After drinking, the conversation box is opened.
The first drunk chaotic is the most fond of taking advantage of Wang Duozhan, I saw him holding a wine jug in one hand, holding a wine glass in the other, staggering to the outside of the pavilion, Wang Cunyuan was a little uneasy, afraid that he would fall from the upstairs, so he always followed him, Wang Duozhan took small steps, and sang like crazy, "Su San left Hongdong County......
"Alas, I learned on time from the troupe that came to the village to sing last year. The red and white Xiaosheng swallowed the yellow pastry in his mouth, and moistened his throat with a glass of wine, "If you can't drink it, don't drink it, burp, what a hero..."
With a bang, Bai Xiaosheng's face and the table came into close contact.
The two girls sitting opposite him, one with a slightly red face, hands and feet parted, but his eyes were unceremoniously confused, and the other was lying on a chair with an empty wine glass in his hand.
Ma Xiandi is considered to be the best lady in Laohuai Village, except for following her father to Tianxiang County to sell goods, she rarely goes out, at this time she is sitting on the chair with her chest up, her mouth is a little scooping, "I said, Zishan, you can't have this temper, you can't get married like this." When Tie Zishan heard his name, she raised her head, glanced at it, and then continued to lie on the chair and fell asleep completely.
When Lu Anshi drank the third glass of wine, there were already three empty jars piled up on his hand, Lu Anshi put down the wine glass, and didn't want to drink anymore, the martial arts boy glanced at him, tilted his neck, and drank half a jar, Lu Anshi smiled bitterly, "No one grabbed it for you, why are you in such a hurry?"
The martial arts boy has said little since he was a child, and he has nothing to say at this time, just a person, drinking and eating pastries by himself, and he didn't get a reply, Lu Anshi will not feel bored with himself, compared to the unparalleled cultivator in the world, he is more willing to be a free swordsman with dual swords and his back to Jiao Niang, which is why he rejected Meng Cheng, not because Meng Cheng's realm is not enough, but because the two of them are not in the right temper.
From the time he walked into the pavilion, he put the lantern at his feet, and the thin young man named Wan Sansi, was the son of Wan Li, the village tent man, who followed his father since he was a child, and after a hundred days, Wan Li also played an iron abacus for him, and was always carried by Wan Sansi, and now he is squatting on the chair, playing with the iron abacus in his hand, muttering words that only he can understand.
Wine is less than a thousand cups of confidants, Zhou Tianshen looked at the messy table of eight immortals and his embarrassed companions, and thought of those days in the lockdown, and thought of his good friend, Tianshouzao. I wonder if it's also in a corner of the Tianshou Continent?

Each goes back to his own house, and each finds his own mother.
Zhou Tianshen They were sent home by Wang Buliu and the white fat man one by one, lying on the wooden bed, holding the still brand new "Talking about Xianghe", "Talking about Xianghe" once told the short life of a swordsman, although he was not the protagonist of the book, but what he did was enough to be daunting, he was the last monk to die at the hands of a female ghost, and the first man to beat a female ghost to a serious injury.
——————
Nameless Mountain, on a small mountain peak fifty miles away from Laohuai Village.
