Chapter Sixty-Eight: A Long Journey
In Wanjia Village, the barking of dogs gradually calmed down.
A young girl stood cowering in the corner, her expression full of fear. And in front of her, a couple in their mid-thirties were asking something.
After half a ring, when they finally finished asking, the man waved his hand, and the young woman was slightly blessed, and entered the side room as if she had been amnestied.
As the sky began to lighten, a figure quickly emerged from the forest and came into the courtyard.
The middle-aged couple hurriedly greeted them, and the man hurriedly said, "Dad, have you caught up?"
Coming back from the forest, of course, it was Wan Yifu, one of the best people in all the nearby villages.
He is in his fifties, and his two brushstrokes are like broom eyebrows that have been smeared with ink, almost together. The whole person's body was filled with an indescribable cold aura, and even his own son did not dare to be presumptuous in front of him.
Wan Yifu snorted coldly and said, "You kid, you've caused some trouble outside recently." ”
The middle-aged man smiled bitterly and said, "Dad, I've been staying at home all this time, and I'm not going anywhere." If you don't believe me, ask our daughter-in-law. ”
This middle-aged couple is the second son and daughter-in-law of Wan Yifu, the male is called Wan Qiangwu, and the female is called Wei Tian. Although Wan Qiangwu does not have the talent to practice martial arts, even a trace of true qi has not been cultivated. But because he has a middle-level hunter's father as a backer, he has learned some martial arts and even obtained the qualification of a hunter.
With his father's reputation, he is definitely the best in the mountains in the surrounding villages.
However, in recent years, after marrying under the arrangement of Wan Yifu, he has also become much more restrained.
"Dad, Qiangwu has been at home recently, and he has indeed never left the village, and he definitely hasn't caused trouble. Wei Tian said respectfully.
Wan Yifu's brows furrowed slightly, and he said, "How did you find the thief?" ”
"It was Wanyu who got up in the middle of the night to go to the toilet and accidentally saw it. Wei Tian hung her head, although she was over thirty years old, her charm still existed, and she was quite beautiful, which was also the biggest reason why she was accepted by Wan Qiangwu.
Wan Yifu nodded slowly and said, "There are three people who came this time, and two of them are just that, but one is a beginner hunter." ”
Wan Qiangwu's gaze looked into the distance and said, "Dad, have you held them?"
Wan Yifu snorted lightly and said, "They still have ambush soldiers behind, and my father doesn't want to take risks." ”
He was embarrassed to say that he was timid, so he could only use this excuse to prevaricate.
"Dad, who are they? Wan Qiangwu's face changed slightly, one hunter and two hunters, this combination is already quite powerful in the nearby village, if there are still people in ambush, and let the father who is a middle-level hunter feel pressure, wouldn't it be too appalling.
At least, among the nearby villages, there is absolutely no village with such a strong strength.
Wan Yifu hesitated, he thought a lot, but he never thought that among his enemies, who had such a terrifying momentum.
"Dad, could it have something to do with the eldest brother?" Wan Qiangwu lowered his voice and said softly.
Wan Yifu's heart sank, and he said slowly: "Early tomorrow morning, you two will follow me into the city." ”
Wan Qiangwu and his wife should be at the same time, and their hearts are quite worried. If it's really the people in the city who are doing ghosts, then the mid-level hunter is nothing.
※※※※
Just when everyone in the Wan family was suspicious, Zheng Haotian and the three of them had already returned to the village.
When they returned this time, they did not tell what happened last night, but waited and watched.
After a few days, the changes in Wanjia Village naturally spread here, but no one suspected them. A few days later, the three brothers went out at night and lurked in Wanjia Village again.
After Lin Ting and Wanyu met, both sides were relieved at the same time.
I don't know why, Wan Yifu's father and son have lived in the city of Luxi since that day, and they have not returned for several days.
Lin Ting swore to Wanyu that he would get back all the things that belonged to her in the future.
When the sky was about to dawn, the two of them were reluctant to separate.
When he returned, Yu Weihua laughed constantly, but Zheng Haotian was silent. Although Lin Ting's conversation with Wanyu could be concealed from Yu Weihua, it could not be concealed from his ears.
Unconsciously, Zheng Haotian remembered Xi Yuting again.
Maybe it's because he knows that it's unlikely to meet, so he misses it even more.
After that, the words became dull again, Zheng Haotian practiced martial arts and ate meat at home, and the heat in his body accumulated more and more. In addition, he is also constantly buying bear bile, and borrowing bile to improve the strength of his true qi.
It's just that after another month, something happened that gave him a headache.
Although there are a lot of bar-tailed sandpipers given by Qi Jiaming, they can't withstand Zheng Haotian's constant consumption. After a few months or so, he finally ate it cleanly.
Looking at the empty wooden box, Zheng Haotian subconsciously licked his lips, as if he was reminiscing about the haunting taste.
Zheng Chenglian put down the work in his hand, stretched out his hand and gave his son a chestnut, and said, "You kid, why has your mouth become so tricky now." ”
Zheng Haotian smiled, and he said, "Dad, if my son's mouth is not good, he will not be able to practice martial arts." ”
Zheng Chenglian shook his head slightly, and said, "You go and talk to the village chief, and if he agrees, go to Yubaoguan to buy some." ”
Zheng Haotian's eyes lit up, and he didn't hide his surprise, but he said hesitantly: "Dad, it's too troublesome and extravagant to do this." ”
Yubaoguan is three hundred miles away from Luxi City, although it also belongs to the sphere of influence of Luxi City, but it is in the opposite direction to Dalin Village.
If it was just for the sake of appetite, it was really an unimaginable thing for the people of Dalin Village.
Zheng Chenglian smiled dumbly and said, "You still have two thousand taels of silver in your hand, and you should use some of it." ”
The sale of the white-eyed wolf king's skin greatly surprised everyone, and Yu Jiansheng only kept one thousand taels of silver among the three thousand taels of silver, and the remaining two thousand taels were thrown to Zheng Haotian in one go, which was regarded as the little guy's private money.
Zheng Haotian responded happily, he jumped happily, and he had already left the courtyard like the wind and fire.
Zheng Chenglian was stunned for a moment, and secretly smiled bitterly.
This son is good at everything, whether it is learning martial arts or practicing family heirlooms, he has an incomparably great talent. But he has a great disadvantage, that is, he is gluttonous, and he only eats some fixed meat.
Bear meat, wolf meat, and spot-tailed sandpiper meat, these three kinds of meat are all very valuable, if it weren't for the Zheng family's solid background, ordinary people really couldn't afford it......
Zheng Haotian took three steps and made two steps, and flew into the village chief's house.
"Uncle Yu, Uncle Yu......"
Before the others entered, the loud and full of neutral voice had already been heard.
"Haotian, what are you doing in a hurry. Yu Jiansheng asked unhurriedly.
He was an old man, so he naturally heard Zheng Haotian's voice and did not mean to panic.
Zheng Haotian stepped across the courtyard with an arrow step, came to the hall, and said with a smile: "Uncle Yu, my father asked me to come to see you." ”
"Oh, Brother Zheng, what's the matter. Yu Jiansheng asked suspiciously.
If Zheng Chenglian has something, he usually comes here to discuss in person, and the number of times his son comes here to inform him is only a handful.
With a smile, Zheng Haotian raised his head and said, "Uncle Yu, my father wants me to go to Yubaoguan, so I want to ask you for directions." ”
"Brother Zheng wants you to go to Yudaiguan ......" Yu Jiansheng became more and more suspicious, his eyes turned on Zheng Haotian's face, and suddenly showed a hint of strangeness, and asked with a smile: "It's not that Brother Zheng wants you to go, but you want to go yourself." ”
Zheng Haotian opened his mouth, and he admired Yu Jiansheng's clever calculations.
Yu Jiansheng shook his head and said, "There are so many spot-tailed sandpipers, you actually ate them all, this is too fast." ”
Zheng Haotian was slightly stunned and said, "Uncle Yu, how do you know?" ”
Yu Jiansheng said angrily: "This doesn't need to be asked, your kid has recently become obsessed with the spot-tailed sandpiper, and this thing is a specialty of Yubaoguan." It's three hundred miles away from Dalin Village, if it weren't for the spot-tailed sandpiper, would you be interested in making a trip?" he paused, looked at Zheng Haotian's honest smile, and said helplessly: "Brother Zheng will even promise you, hey, you foodie." ”
Zheng Haotian smiled awkwardly and said, "Uncle Yu, my father said that this time he used my money to buy it, and he didn't care." ”
Yu Jiansheng was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered that the young man with a shy smile on his face standing in front of him was actually a big sum of money that killed two white-eyed wolf kings and had two thousand taels of silver in his hand. It seems understandable that such an age is a little extravagant.
After pondering for a moment, Yu Jiansheng raised his head suddenly, and said in a loud voice: "Weihua, Lin Ting......"
With his roar, two familiar figures rushed out of the backyard.
Yu Jiansheng pointed with his hand and said, "You two and Haotian will go to Yubao Pass together." ”
Yu Weihua was stunned and said, "Dad, where are we going to do something." ”
Lin Ting frowned slightly, and said, "Uncle Yu, it seems that the three of us haven't traveled that far. ”
Yu Jiansheng smiled dumbly and said, "You three bold little guys, you dare to enter the mountain alone, are you still afraid of this mere 300-mile road." He said loudly: "You are already old, it is impossible to always protect us old guys, this time to go to Yubao Pass, even if it is a test." ”
Zheng Haotian and the three of them glanced at each other, and their eyes were full of joy.
This is the first time that Yu Jiansheng has personally recognized it, and they have indeed ...... Grow up!
