The night was lonely, and I knew that there were cries one after another from the big locust tree in the village.

Xu Ya'er and Xu Changgeng returned to the ancestral house left by their parents, and Gu Yanwu and others went back with them.

Lighting the oil lamp in the guest hall, Xu Yaer wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said with a smile in the face of Gu Yanwu and the others: "Thank you for your help, the little woman can't repay it, there is still some coarse food at home, I think you haven't eaten yet, let's wait for the little woman to make something to eat for you." “

Of course, Gu Yanwu and the others had no reason to refuse, and after Xu Ya'er walked out, Xu Changgeng looked at Gu Yanwu and said, "Big brother, you are so powerful, just waving the sword like that, they won't dare to bully me and my sister anymore." ”

Gu Yanwu, who was rarely praised, smiled embarrassedly at this time, but he still said generously, "I think at the beginning, I killed many evil beings with one sword. ”

"Big brother is so powerful, he will definitely protect me and my sister."

Xu Changgeng's eyes were full of reverence when he looked at Gu Yanwu, the latter scratched his head, glanced at Shen Ning with a smile on his face, and snorted, "That's ..... Of course. ”

If it was just a fight with the villagers, of course he could guarantee that he could protect their sister and brother.

But if he was an enemy of the fox fairy who had eaten incense for a few years, he would not be sure, but thinking of Shen Ning, they would definitely not stand idly by, so he agreed.

Shen Ning, who had been sitting next to him, only then did he ask, "How many times has this kind of sacrifice happened in your village?" ”

Xu Changgeng looked at Shen Ning, he was a very smart child, and he could see from the subtleties that Shen Ning was the leader among these people, so he replied: "If you count my sister, it should be the second time." ”

The second time?

Shen Ning was a little surprised.

He originally thought that this fox fairy of Xujiazhuang was walking the path of incense, but he must have practiced some forbidden spells, so he asked Xujiazhuang to offer young women in the name of marrying, but now it seems that this is not the case.

"Is there any news from the woman from before?" Shen Ning continued to ask,

Not surprisingly, Xu Changgeng shook his head, "It was a crazy woman who was sent in before, and no one has seen him since he was picked up by the fox fairy that day." ”

Shen Ning thought for a while, and then asked, "Can you usually see this fox fairy?" ”

"I can't see it." Xu Changgeng said truthfully: "It has always been the village chief who has been in contact with the fox fairy alone, and we only need to carry out the tasks conveyed by the fox fairy, but except for the sacrifice of women, the fox fairy rarely asks us to do anything." ”

Shen Ning nodded, looked at Wang Yan and asked, "Senior brother, have you arranged the formation I asked you to arrange?" ”

"According to your requirements, I will arrange it on the way here, and ensure that no one in Xujiazhuang can leave Xujiazhuang." Wang Yan replied confidently.

Shen Ning nodded, Gu Yanwu's move was the result of their joint decision.

Therefore, Shen Ning and the others naturally wanted to get rid of the fox fairy here, and of course they had to make complete preparations in case someone in Xujiazhuang reported to the fox fairy.

As for getting rid of the fox immortals here, what is the future of Xujiazhuang, don't worry, after all, the demon plague within a radius of 100 miles has been dealt with by the Heavenly Master Mansion and the Tsing Yi Si Xingzhu in Henan Province in the south, at least in the next ten years, there will be no demon plague or bandits.

Ten years later, Win Qin must have led the army to conquer the north and return to the Great Jin, and that time was the time when the defeated army swept the world, and the Great Jin Dynasty had a peaceful time.

Xu Changgeng's eyes lit up when he heard the conversation between Shen Ning and the others, and he knew that these people would help him and his sister solve the fox fairy.

It's just that I can't help but be a little worried about what I and my sister should do in the future, what happened in the ancestral hall, Xu Jiazhuang will definitely not be able to stay in the future, so he said in worship: "Brothers and sisters, you are so powerful, are you immortals?" ”

Shen Ning and the others, who were discussing specific matters, were stunned when they heard this, and the honest Wang Yan replied: "We haven't reached the level of immortals yet, but it should be no problem to deal with the wild gods in the countryside." ”

"Then can I be like you in the future, slaying demons and demons?" Xu Changgeng's eyes seemed to have a light in them.

Li Hongye looked at the little brother in front of him and seemed interested, and said softly: "You come over and let my sister take a look." ”

Xu Changgeng walked over obediently.

Li Hongye instilled a trace of Lingyuan into Xu Changgeng's body, only to see the latter's little face flushed, and he forcibly held back to prevent himself from making a sound.

When this trace of spirit yuan ran in Xu Changgeng's body for a week, Li Hongye said with some surprise: "The innate yuan vein is a cultivation material. ”

"Really?" Xu Changgeng said excitedly: "Then can I practice with my brothers and sisters?" ”

"Of course not!" Li Hongye's red lips opened lightly, with a deep smile on his face.

"Why?" Xu Changgeng asked with some grievances: "Do my brothers and sisters think I'm too stupid and unwilling to teach me?" ”

"Okay, senior sister, don't make fun of him." Shen Ning saw his aggrieved appearance, smiled, and said, "Naturally, you can't follow us to practice, because we still have important things to do, but I can write you a letter of recommendation, with this letter, you can go to Shenjing City to worship under the Heavenly Master's Mansion." ”

What Shen Ning said was naturally serious, the Great Jin Dynasty has always advocated the education of all people, and he also cares a lot about the inheritance of cultivators.

In this chaotic world, the cultivation of talents is particularly important, so as long as they have a Yuan Vein, can perceive the spiritual element of heaven and earth, and have a pure heart, as long as they are willing to worship under the Tsing Yi Division and the Heavenly Master's Mansion, they will get good resources for them to practice.

"Thank you, brother and sister." After Xu Changgeng got Shen Ning's answer, his eyes were red, and his tears couldn't stop flowing, the people he knew in front of him were actually the best people for his sister and brother after his parents passed away.

If you succeed in your studies in the future, you must repay your brothers and sisters.

The little Xu Changgeng thought truthfully at this time.

Shen Ning didn't have any ink, and immediately took out a pen and paper to write a letter of recommendation for Xu Changgeng.

With this letter, after the little guy arrives in Shenjing City, the senior brothers and sisters will definitely solve the accommodation and other problems for him, as for whether he can worship under the Heavenly Master's Mansion, there are still many assessments, and the results will be known after the assessment is over.

After taking the envelope, Xu Changgeng carefully carried it in his arms.

The door creaked open, and Xu Yaer walked in with vegetables, a can of chicken soup and a few dry noodle buns.

"Huo, is Xujiazhuang's life so good?"

Gu Yanwu couldn't help but be a little surprised when he looked at the sumptuous dinner, he had also stayed in the villages and towns of Nanxiang, but you must know that in the peasant households in Nanxiang, most people only eat two meals a day, and they are generally steamed buns made of black powder, one is cheap, and the other is hungry.

Shen Ning remembered that when he came, he saw a hen that laid eggs in the yard of the Xu family's sister and brother, thinking that it was this one, and immediately glared at Gu Yanwu, who also reacted in hindsight, and gaged: "It's so fragrant, it's just a fight with the chicken soup made by Tianxianglou in Shenjing City, and when you arrive in Shenjing City, I will take you to taste it." ”

"Shenjing City?" Xu Yaer was a little puzzled.

"That's ......."

Xu Changgeng told Xu Ya'er about Shen Ning's recommendation to go to the Heavenly Master's Mansion to cultivate just now.

After learning that her younger brother also had the opportunity to embark on the path of a cultivator, Xu Ya'er could no longer restrain her excitement, her lips opened slightly, but she couldn't make a sound.

She can't be blamed for this, after all, this is an opportunity to change the fate of their sister and brother, and it is also an opportunity to live in this troubled world.

"Xu Ya'er, thank you to all the immortals, and I am willing to make cattle and horses for all the immortals in the future to repay today's kindness."

"We're just doing what we do, Miss Ya'er doesn't have to." Shen Ning replied with a smile and helped up this distressing little girl.

Gu Yanwu accosted on the side and said: "That's true, even if it's a person, we will do the same, because everything we do is for the Great Jin Dynasty and the people of the world." ”

"For the sake of the Great Jin, for the people of the world,"

Xu Changgeng repeated these words over and over again, Gu Yanwu didn't know that his simple words had planted a seed in Xu Changgeng's heart.

In the future, this seed will grow into a towering tree, saving the crisis from difficulties.

Several people ate food and went back to their rooms to rest under Xu Yaer's arrangement.

Shen Ning couldn't sleep, and Li Hongye couldn't sleep like him, and the two of them sat on the roof of the Xu family, looking at the moonlight, chatting.

"I remember when you were a child, you seemed to be very rebellious, once you got drunk in the inn, Senior Brother Lu Jian was very angry, locked you in the Daoju, as long as you haven't completed the marrow washing and bone cutting, you are not allowed to leave." Li Hongye sat on the roof, holding his face with his hands, his eyes full of memories.

Speaking of Senior Brother Lu Quan, Shen Ning's heart was already relieved, for him, Senior Brother did not die, but lived in the hearts of him and the disciples of the Heavenly Master's Mansion, so he smiled and said: "If it weren't for Senior Brother Lu Quan, I might have become the latest disciple in the history of the Heavenly Master's Mansion to complete the marrow washing and bone cutting." ”

Who knew that Li Hongye shook his head and said with a smile: "Impossible, your talent is obvious to everyone, it is only half a year since you stepped into the Dao Realm, you are already a Xuan Realm cultivator now, you must know that this is a goal that many people can't complete in a lifetime." ”

"It's just that there are more opportunities than ordinary people."

Shen Ning knew very well in his heart that if it weren't for the existence of Netherfire in his body, his cultivation speed would definitely not be so fast.

"It's also a good thing to be able to get a chance, that's my life." A faint smile appeared on Li Hongye's face, "Who would have thought that the little junior brother who was confused at the beginning would lead us to support Henan Province now, and who would have thought that the current little junior brother's heart is full of people all over the world." ”

"People always grow." Shen Ning replied calmly.

When he was a child, he was really a bastard, and after the lame man died, he ran to the restaurant every day to drink unconscious, but fortunately, his brothers and sisters were very tolerant of him.

No one has ever said anything about him, probably because of his background.

But who of the disciples of the Heavenly Master's Mansion is not pitiful?

"I wish the world could settle down." Thinking of the current demon plague in Henan Province and what he has seen and heard along the way, Li Hongye couldn't help but sigh like this.

"There will be a day."

Shen Ning looked at the bright moon in the sky, his eyes were full of determination.

"Of course there will be that day, but I don't know if I will ever see that day."

"Of course, Senior Sister can see what kind of life Senior Sister wants to live when that time comes?"

Li Hongye thought about it seriously, and his voice was gentle and full of infinite yearning, "I, in fact, it's good to live with the senior brothers and disciples of the Heavenly Master's Mansion, if there is really a yearning, then it is probably all of us, find a village and town that doesn't know us." It's good to open a shop on a street and live an ordinary life every day, and at dusk you can get together to drink and talk about the past, which must be very interesting. ”

"Senior sister's idea is as simple as ever, but I like this idea very much, but if I'm not mistaken, senior sister doesn't seem to drink bars."

Li Hongye glanced at Shen Ning with disgust, and said indignantly: "You can't learn." ”

"That's just as well."

"What about you, what kind of life do you want to live?"

Feeling the cool breeze on his face, Shen Ning looked thoughtful, and after a long time, he spoke: "Probably the same idea as Senior Sister, it would be good if everyone could live together, but I hope that there will be less quarrels in my house." ”

"Quarrels?" Li Hongye was a little puzzled.

Shen Ning smiled, of course he wouldn't tell Li Hongye that the quarrel he said was referring to Zifu Lingyue and the eldest princess of Dajin Ying Xianhui.

...........

"Sister, what kind of life do you want to live?"

In one of the Xu family's wings, because there were a lot of people in the family today, Xu Changgeng gave up his room to Gu Yanwu and Wang Yan, and moved to his sister's room for one night.

The room they were in happened to be able to hear the subtle conversation between Shen Ning and Li Hongye.

"I'm probably going to find a job in Shenjing City that can make our sister and brother live first, and I don't know how the embroidery business in Shenjing City is, if I can, I'll do embroidery, it shouldn't be a big problem to make ends meet." When you grow up, I should find an honest man to marry. ”

"Won't it be too late by then?" Xu Changgeng leaned on his sister's chest and asked curiously.

"Hmph, do you want to say that my sister was old at that time, and no one wants it?"

"I didn't." Gu Yanwu naturally denied it,

"You can't think of it that way."

"Got it."

After a while.

"Sister, have you slept?"

"Not yet."

"Well, what do you think of the big brother who saved us today?"

"How's that?"

"It's just a human being or something!"

"He should be called Gu Yanwu, right? Well..... He's a nice guy....... ”
