Before three o'clock in the afternoon, Tie Zhu had already come to the riverside with a huge crowd of people.

Xia Fan saw that Li Laishun and the wizard were also present, but today Lin Xiaolan was here, Xia Fan glanced at everyone, and the villagers were almost here. The corners of his mouth hooked an arc, and he smiled disdainfully in his heart: "Li Laishun, old witch, it's time for you to see what the real performance is."

After a while, Tiezhu looked at the sky, and the time was almost up.

Some villagers have been muttering for a long time: "The patriarch asked us to see if the flood waters receded, and we don't need so many people to watch together?"

"Why don't you ask us to see the scenery?"

"Did you bring us to pick up fish? But the flood has not receded, where are the fish?"

.........

The villagers waited for a long time, and their patience was almost impatient, and they shouted that they were going back, but their eyes touched the warning look of the iron pillar's eyes, and they hurriedly stopped quietly.

Everyone just symbolically watched as the river slowly calmed down.

It was three o'clock in the afternoon, and the sharp-eyed people in the crowd saw a faint object suddenly appear in the middle of the river, hurriedly pointed to the middle of the river, and suddenly shouted in surprise: "Oh my God, everyone, look, what is that?"

Everyone hurriedly looked in the direction pointed by the man, but saw a huge lotus leaf suddenly floating above the center of the distant river, floating straight towards the shore. And on top of the lotus leaf, there was a person sitting!

"It's really a person, my God, can you sit on the lotus leaves?" exclaimed an elderly grandmother tremblingly.

"Really, it's really a person who came out of the river!"

......

More and more people are terrified. Suddenly, the voices of the people were full of voices, marveling at the magical sight that would take a long time to see.

Li Laishun and the wizard were already glaring at each other like copper bells.

The villagers couldn't see it at first, but faintly saw that there was a person on the lotus leaf, and waited for the lotus leaf to get closer and closer. The villagers who didn't know the reason were all dumbfounded, and said, what a miracle!

"It's Xiuxia"

"She was able to come back?"

"OMG

The villagers couldn't help but shout.

Tie Zhu watched his daughter's return intact, and his heart was already so excited that he almost forgot his lines. Quickly settled down, and suddenly knelt down towards the river, a face that was originally so serious, suddenly hung with a pious look, and then threw himself to the ground, pretending to be surprised and shouted loudly: "My daughter is back!" seemed to remember that he had forgotten the key sentence, and hurriedly added: "The river god has appeared!"

Xia Fan looked at Tie Zhu's extremely clumsy performance. Xin said: "Uncle Tiezhu, your performance can be called the actor in the comedy industry!"

Xia Fan wanted to laugh but knew that he couldn't laugh, so he had to hold back. quietly pinched his thigh, and then he couldn't hold back a smile.

When everyone saw the patriarch of the family say this, they had doubts and surprises in their hearts, but some people also believed it, and immediately a few old people took the lead and knelt down, and the rest of the younger villagers also believed it when they saw this, and they also knelt down with a little doubt. Immediately afterwards, the mighty crowd was only Li Laishun for a moment, and the wizard and Xia Fan were still standing in place.

Li Laishun understood everything in his heart, and the wizard also thought almost at the same time that the person sitting on the lotus leaf must be Xiuxia. It's just that coming against the current in such a turbulent river is really beyond the power of man. But the second uncle knew that Gao Wenshan was a monk, and he had no exact understanding of Gao Wenshan's strength when he first came into contact with a monk, but he always felt that Gao Wenshan, an old man, had a temperament that made him extremely palpitating, even if he unconsciously showed timidity when facing him. Thinking that Gao Wenshan's strength will only be high and not low, his son, who has been outside all the year round, told him that the monks are so magical and how their means are unimaginable. He also understands that monks are magical beings, and as long as things related to monks are unreasonable, they may be reasonable!

Suddenly, I saw everyone kneeling on the spot, and at the same time, they all reverently shouted that the river god had appeared. Li Laishun and the wizard saw the general trend, no matter how unwilling they were in their hearts, they had to compromise and knelt down very reluctantly. Gritted his teeth and fell silent.

Everyone raised their heads and stared at the lotus leaves coming slowly, only to see that the lotus leaves in the river held Xiuxia and slowly floated to a distance close to the river bank and remained motionless.

Xia Fan coughed violently, Tie Zhu looked at it knowingly, Xia Fan glanced again, and Tie Zhu immediately understood. Gao Wenshan is still under the lotus leaves in the water at this moment, and must not be too close to the river bank, although the river is still a little turbid, but it is inevitable that sharp-eyed people will find the clues.

Tie Zhu hurriedly stood up first, jumped into the river, swam straight towards the lotus leaves, and came to Xiuxia's side in three or two.

Xiuxia had been told by Gao Wenshan that she knew Xia Fan's plan, and when she saw her father coming to pick her up in person, the joy in her heart was indescribable.

But seeing that Xiuxia had just come ashore, the lotus leaf swam to the river by itself and disappeared. Where it disappeared, the crimson light flickered for a long time, and finally dissipated. Even Xia Fan didn't expect this light in the water, and when Xia Fan saw this, he smiled warmly in his heart: "The master is really thoughtful." ”

At this time, the villagers had no doubt that the river god had really appeared. When everyone saw this magical scene for the first time, they were all amazed and overjoyed. Several old people couldn't help but burst into tears, and they all said: "It's really been in vain to live for so many years." ”

Li Laishun was on his way to the river before, and accidentally learned that Lin Xiaolan did not jump into the river. is already angry, but because of his identity, it is not good to have a seizure, and he still has to say "Fortunately, fortunately".

At this time, when I saw Tiezhu's daughter returning safely, all my calculations were in vain! I remembered that I had promised the wizard in front of me, but it was really difficult to explain, and it was even more difficult to tear my face and offend her! The whole person was suddenly in a trance, as if he was ten years old in an instant. It seems that he can't see this happy scene, remembering that he went home and was alone, his wife died too early, and the only son left behind was not around, Li Laishun's face became more and more gloomy, and he looked at Tiezhu's father and daughter for a long time, and a fierce color came to his heart, and he left quietly.

The villagers also stood up one after another, seeing that the weather was already sunny, and there was no worry in their hearts, and they all gathered around Tiezhu father and daughter to say congratulations. Tie Zhu looked doting, and at the moment he just wanted to take a good look at his daughter, as if his daughter had come back from the dead.

Only Xia Fan stood quietly aside, crossed his arms in front of his chest, quietly looking into the distance, not knowing what he was thinking, or missing, or sorrowful, or determined His expression kept changing.

I don't know how long it took, an old palm gently patted Xia Fan's shoulder, and said softly: "Silly boy, what do you want?"

Xia Fan turned around, and the person behind him was Gao Wenshan, looking at Xia Fan with a kind smile. Xia Fan said in surprise: "Master, it's hard work." But seeing that there was no trace of water on Gao Wenshan's body at this moment, it was obvious that he had dried it.

Gao Wenshan looked at the direction that Xia Fan was looking at, where Tie Zhu's eyes only had Xiuxia in his eyes, full of happiness, and kept asking if there was anything wrong and if he was uncomfortable.

Gao Wenshan could probably guess the reason for Xia Fan's expression.

In an instant, a trace of longing in Xia Fan's heart came to his heart again, happy for the Tiezhu family, but when he remembered when he could be reunited, he only felt out of reach.

Suddenly, I thought of the mysterious ancient sword of the ancestral hall, which was very similar to the silver long sword that made him suffer so much. Xia Fan secretly remembered that when he went back, he must ask Uncle Tie Zhu to ask him clearly and see if he understood.
