Chapter Seventy-One: Faith

。。。

"Learn and learn, don't you also say? A friend has come from afar..."

As soon as they came to the vicinity of the village chief's house, Wei Ming and Meng Po heard the sound of Lang Lang reading, and looked at the sound, but saw a scholar in white clothes, sitting by the stream at the door, holding a copy of the Analects and shaking his head and reading.

"Huh! Isn't this Brother Ah Cheng? Wake up so early in the morning to read? Seeing this person, he immediately stepped forward and greeted him familiarly.

"Brother East?!" Ah Cheng heard the unknown voice, turned around and saw the unknown, and couldn't help but be stunned.

"It's under ~" Wei Ming arched his hand and said with a smile: "I haven't seen you for half a year, I didn't expect you to work so hard, Brother Cheng!" ”

"Alas~ Don't mention it..."Ah Cheng smiled bitterly, shook his head and said: "Since my township test failed last year, the people in the village have laughed at me for being a nerd, which is still good, if it weren't for my father being the village head, they would probably call me sour Xiucai, so I decided that I must work hard, redouble my efforts, and go to the township test in three years to win the first place." ”

"Haha~" Wei Ming smiled, and cheered Ah Cheng up: "Come on, Brother Ah Cheng, I believe you will definitely be able to win the lift in three years." ”

"Hmmm! I'm going to do my best. ”

Ah Cheng said firmly, then looked at Wei Ming again, and asked, "By the way, I heard that you didn't go to Xiaoyao Valley to apprentice?" Why did he come out so early, it couldn't be expelled from the division, right? ”

Hearing Ah Cheng say this, Wei Ming also rolled his eyes speechlessly, and said, "Of course not, I came out with the task assigned by the master this time." ”

As he spoke, Wei Ming took out a letter from his bosom and said, "I came this time to send a New Year's greeting letter for my teacher, and now I happen to see Brother Ah Cheng, so please forward this letter to you to the village chief!" ”

"Oh~ I see!" Ah Cheng suddenly realized, because in previous years, during the New Year's Festival, Flawless would also send someone to the village to send New Year's greetings and the like, so it is not unusual, and even if it wasn't for the unclear mention, Ah Cheng might have forgotten that there was such a thing.

"Of course this is no problem, it's wrapped up in me" Ah Cheng took the letter and invited him cheerfully and warmly: "Brother Dongfang, since you have come, why don't you sit in the cold house?" ”

Wei Ming waved his hand and said with a smile: "Thank you Brother Ah Cheng for the invitation, but forget it this time, I still have to rush to send a letter to the other villagers, and there are other things to do in the future, and when I come to Dukang Village next time, I will definitely come to visit." ”

After that, as soon as Ah Cheng of the Ming Dynasty gave up his hand, he immediately turned around and left, and Meng Po still followed him closely.

Ah Cheng saw that Weiming was resolute, but he didn't stay, and after waving his hand at Weiming's back, he also turned around and went home.

On the road.

Meng Po looked at Wei Ming with a funny look and said, "Why, are you so afraid of the village chief's family?" ”

"Don't talk about Sister Meng, I don't want to recall these bad things..."Wei Ming said with a black line on his face, after all, he couldn't have imagined that the old village chief of Du Kang Village, who looked so serious in the game in his previous life, was actually a drunk and drunken person, of course, if it was just a person who loved to be drunk, because Fu Jianhan was drunk and also loved to be drunk (pestering people to compare swords), but the key old village chief was just a literati, every time the village chief was drunk, it was not stopped, it was not stopped, and he was afraid of hurting him. If you don't stop him, I'm afraid that he will hurt himself, and he won't be able to do anything at all.

Not only that, but even the village chief's pair of children are similar, the son, that is, Ah Cheng, every time he gets drunk, he holds a copy of "Taibai Poetry Collection", imagining that he is a poet fairy, sometimes when he is drunk to the depths, he also likes to drill into the water, and he can't remember how many times he has fished him out of the water.

As for the village chief's daughter, Du Juan, it is not much better, if she is a mild nymphomaniac under normal circumstances, then after she is drunk, her symptoms are more than ten times worse, but if it is destructive and her own safety, Du Juan is the lightest one in the family of three.

"Hiss~"

Thinking of the days when he used to live here and stop drinking and going crazy with Fu Jianhan, Wei Ming felt a little chilly, hurriedly dispelled what he thought in his heart, and seriously sent the letter from house to house.

。。。

After about four hours (more than eight to nine hours), with the departure from the house of the eldest brother and aunt, the letter entrusted by the master was finally the last one.

"Huh~ It's finally almost finished, and the last one is over." Wei Ming let out a breath of turbidity and said with emotion.

Running back and forth all day, although it is not as hard as practice, but this feeling similar to shopping also makes Wei Ming feel a little tired.

Meng Po on the side heard that there was still a last letter in her eyes, but there was a hint of different color in her eyes, but she didn't show it, and Wei Ming, who was facing away from her, naturally didn't see it.

"Then hurry up and finish it..."Meng Po suddenly said: "Didn't you say that when you finish this matter, you will go back to Xuancheng's hometown to have a look?" It's just out today, and we'll be ready to leave early tomorrow morning. ”

"Hmmm! Good. Wei Ming didn't notice the look of Meng Po behind him, and said with anticipation.

"I'll see where this last letter was sent." Wei Ming took out the last letter and couldn't help muttering to himself: "Anyway, the old people in the village seem to have received the letter, who else is missing...?" ”

Before the words fell, Wei Ming had already taken out the last envelope, but when Wei Ming saw the name of the recipient on the envelope, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, only to see four words written on the envelope, "Wei Ming personally opened".

"It's... For me? Wei Ming was a little confused for a while, but at this time, he heard Meng Po behind him say: "Since it was handed over to you by the head of Wufang, Wei Ming, then you can open it and take a look first~"

"That's what I said~" Wei Ming nodded in agreement, although he didn't understand the master's intentions, but there must be nothing bad.

As soon as he thought of this, he directly opened the letter in his hand, and when he unfolded the only piece of letter paper, he saw the content on it, and his originally relaxed mood suddenly became waves.

There is not much on the stationery, just a string of addresses and a simple picture.

The address reads: Ten miles outside Dukang Village, under the old willow tree.

"This address..."Wei Ming frowned, feeling an inexplicable familiarity, and at the same time a little sentimental.

Meng Po on the side saw that Weiming's mood was strange, and wanted to comfort him a few words, but she opened her mouth, but she didn't know where to start, and finally sighed silently, and then put her hand on Weiming's shoulder, and said softly: "It's still early, why don't you go and have a look~"

"Hmm~"

Unspecified agreed, in addition to sentimentality, there was more expectation in his voice, which was no different from when he talked about his hometown before.
