The old man began to talk endlessly, only to hear him say: "It is now autumn, and it is the season of grain harvest recently, and there are more monsters stealing grain to eat in this field, so what is there to be afraid of, when I catch those monsters later, and bring them to you to vent your anger?"

The people sitting across from him all started talking, and they all seemed to be a little nervous, and said, "No, you don't have to bring it, just capture and kill it." ”

The old man smiled and squinted his eyes, and said, "Don't be afraid, what's there to be afraid of?" Isn't it just some little monsters, rabbit demons, rat demons, sparrow demons and the like, if you see too much, even if you meet them in the future, you won't be afraid." ”

When the old man said this, they all laughed, and they all heard them say good things about the old man, and the old man seemed to be very useful when he heard these flattering words, and at this time, I saw someone stand up from the chair, and put a finger-sized white flower of silver in his hand on the small table beside the old man, and then the man said to the old man respectfully: "This is a small gift to honor your old man, don't be too little, it is all our heart." ”

The old man glanced at the silver and said, "This, how embarrassing is this, you see that you are too polite." ”

The man said, "Please take it, this is all our little heart, if it weren't for your tireless efforts to eliminate demons here, those monsters would not know what would have caused us to be in Vientiane City." ”

The old man seemed to be accustomed to such a scene, and he was not humble anymore, and sat there with his eyes squinted, with a smile on his face, but he looked a little tired, and all of them stood up at this time, said goodbye to the old man, and slowly withdrew from the room in turn.

The old man picked up the silver from the table and put it in his pocket, Ye Qiu had been waiting outside the door, those who left saw Ye Qiu, and they didn't feel any surprise, they all left by themselves, Ye Qiu didn't know how to speak, but heard the people in the room say, "Guests outside, it's your turn to come in." ”

As soon as Ye Qiu heard the old man calling him, he quickly tidied up his clothes and walked in respectfully, only to see that the old man was still squinting, as if he was enjoying this feeling, and he didn't know if he had noticed Ye Qiu at this time, Ye Qiu said respectfully: "Master, where is this?"

"Huh?" The old man was still squinting, and when he heard Ye Qiu say this, he seemed a little surprised, and he said in a slow voice: "What did you say?" ”

Ye Qiu was embarrassed and said with a smile: "Master, I'm asking you, what kind of place is this?"

"What? You don't even know what kind of place this is, you, what kind of doll are you, how dare you trespass?" The old man suddenly became angry, Ye Qiu was startled, he didn't know how to offend the old man all of a sudden, Ye Qiu hurriedly said: "Master, here, I took the liberty to disturb it." ”

When the old man opened his eyes, he was suddenly stunned, he was still losing his temper just now, but at this time he kept staring at Ye Qiu, Ye Qiu saw that the old man was not angry now, but he kept staring at himself like this, and he didn't know what it meant, Ye Qiu felt a little hairy in his heart, Ye Qiu didn't know what to do, the old man jumped up from the chair he was sitting on, that skill was extremely agile, it didn't look like a drooping old man's skills at all, the old man ran in front of Ye Qiu, looking Ye Qiu up and down.

Ye Qiu was uncomfortable being looked at by the old man, and he didn't know what the old man was looking at, Ye Qiu avoided the old man and said, "Master, what are you looking at?"

The old man suddenly hugged Ye Qiu's arms with both hands, and said happily, "Here, you are finally here." ”

Ye Qiu quickly broke free of the old man's hands, and he also asked anxiously: "Here, yes, I'm here, who are you?"

The old man was so happy that he was about to cry, and said, "Looking forward to the stars, looking forward to the moon, but I have come to look forward to you, I recognize your clothes, you are a disciple of Yunwuling, and I am your senior brother of Yunwuling." When the old man spoke, he was a little crying.

As soon as Ye Qiu heard the old man say this, he understood in his heart, and he said happily: "That's right, it seems that I really didn't come to the wrong place, senior brother, no, no, it's senior, senior." ”

The old man looked at Ye Qiu and said, "Seeing that you are young, I have never seen you in Yunwuling before, I have heard that the head of the sect recruited many new disciples for Yunwuling more than ten years ago, I think you are probably the newly recruited disciple this time." ”

Ye Qiu said: "What the predecessor said is right. Disciple Ye Qiu is the new disciple recruited by Yunwu Ridge, and my master is Lone Xingyun. ”

The old man smiled and said, "It's a long time, you don't know how long I've been in this place." ”

Ye Qiu shook his head, and the old man's voice raised a little, and said, "Fifty years, I've been here for more than fifty years!"

"Ahh Ye Qiu was shocked when he heard the old man say this, didn't the head say that he could go back to the mountain after three years every time he went down the mountain, why did this old man stay in this place for more than fifty years, could it be that this old man saw his young age and deliberately coaxed him, but it didn't look like it.

Ye Qiu asked, "Master, are you Gui Geng?"

The old man shook his head and said with a wry smile: " Of course, I am younger than your age, but if you talk about it, I am still very young in our generation of disciples, you see that I am now old, I have been under this mountain for a long time, and I have not maintained it well, I think when I was ordered to come here fifty years ago, I was still a middle-aged person, but now, without the living conditions of Yunwuling, my body is aging rapidly, and when I return to Yunwuling this time, I must ask Huashen Doctor for a few pills, so that I can look younger. ”

Ye Qiu heard the old man say this, but he also believed it in his heart, this Hua Shen Doctor did refine a lot of longevity-prolonging pills, and among those senior disciples in Yunwu Ridge, there were many disciples who were thousands of years old and had the appearance of twenty or thirty years old, Ye Qiu still felt a little strange when he first came to Cloud Fog Ridge, but now that all these years have passed, Ye Qiu has long been used to it.

At this time, the cloud pigeon has also flown into the house, the old man saw the cloud pigeon, happily whistled in his mouth, obviously the old man is very familiar with the habits of the cloud pigeon, the cloud pigeon heard the old man's whistle, and then flew back and forth in the room in a circle, happily fluttering wings, the old man looked at the cloud pigeon, wrinkled the old face showed a happy smile.

The cloud pigeon flew around the house several times, and then landed on the old man's shoulder, the old man looked at Ye Qiu, and said mysteriously: "Little disciple, I should go back to Yunwu Ridge, this Vientiane City will depend on you to protect it in the future." ”
