Father Zhan tidied up his bags, looking at Zhan Wuji and the others who were still asleep, it seemed that these children were really sleepy, if it was usual, at this time, these children should have already gotten up and ran around the room.

Seeing that several people were asleep, the father of the Zhan family quietly left the room and locked the door again, for fear of alarming a few people.

When he got to the yard, his father carried his tools and a bow on his back, and began to collect food in the mountains, and in the morning, he brought some mushrooms and some wild vegetables, all of which were very tender, and if he was lucky, he could catch a small wild boar or something, and then he would be full.

The father of the Zhan family opened the gate and walked out, and suddenly saw a person standing in front of the gate.

The old village chief was standing on the wall with his head shrunk, rubbing his toes from time to time, and his body was still stained with dewdrops, obviously he had been here for a while.

"Why are you here? You want to see me? Why don't you leave quickly? Wasting time here? You're wet, you must have been here for a while, right? Old Man Zhan asked strangely.

"Haha!" Yes, yes, I just got here, it's still early, I guess you're still in bed, I won't knock on the door, anyway, you have to go out, I'll wait for you outside. ”

"What's going on? When did you, an old grandson, become such a polite person? I've never seen you so polite before, and every time you come in with a bang. ”

"This, this is not what it used to be, it's me who is sorry for you, otherwise how could I kick the door as soon as I entered, wouldn't it be more sincere to wait outside."

"Why? This is not your style, you have always been cheeky, and now you are so shy, it is really unacceptable. Say, if it's okay, I'm going into the mountains, I'm going to show my cooking skills and cook a good meal for the children, so that I can get back to the mountains faster. ”

The old man closed the gate of the courtyard, exchanged a few words with the old village chief, and was about to go up the mountain.

"Hey, hey, hey! Rest assured! Let me give you two words. Seeing that the old man of the Zhan family was really leaving, the old village chief suddenly panicked, where did he care about the hypocrisy and wrongdoing, grabbed the old man of the Zhan family, and said eagerly.

"Say anything! I'm really on my way. ”

"I came here this time to ask you, how are the bandits doing? What do you mean when you are on Longyu Mountain? How much do you have to pay?

Moreover, I also understand that the behavior of those countrymen yesterday made you very sad, and the original robber incident had nothing to do with you, it was I who looked for you with a dead face to make you suffer so much grievance.

Everyone is watching you being blackmailed, but no one is willing to provide you with an arrow that will almost kill you, which is a bit excessive. I'm the one who let you down, and the whole village lets you down. ”

The old village chief looked embarrassed, lowered his head, and did not dare to look at the old man of the Zhan family.

"I thought that the matter of robbers had been dealt with a long time ago, and by the time I passed, there would have been no robbers there.

However, judging from the broken gate, the covered blood, and the traces of the fight, there must have been a fierce battle on Longyu Mountain before we set off.

However, Long Yushan will not pose any threat to our village for the time being, so you don't have to worry. ”

It seems that the people of the Zhan family did not hide it well, but they were discovered by the people of the Zhan family, but fortunately, the people of the Zhan family did not associate this matter with the Zhan family, but thought that it was just a fight between bandits.

The old man of the Zhan family calmed the old man, and then continued: "Regarding the things in the village, I don't care, this is a normal thing, but since it has happened, then I will tell you a word, let you be mentally prepared, I will leave first!" ”

He had just breathed a sigh of relief, and there was a hint of joy on his face, but his father said, "I'm leaving!" Interrupted his thoughts.

"I thought you didn't care. Why leave? Shall I apologize to you? I'll make the whole village apologize to you. Why leave? ”

"This matter has nothing to do with the people in the village, and the biggest reason why I left this time is for the sake of those children.

You also know that although they are young, they are very strong, and each of them is amazingly talented, and the future is limitless.

Father Zhan said: "At my age, I will be useless, and I will not have much success in the future, but I can't let my sons fall into my hands, I plan to send them all to Daqingshan." ”

"Daqingshan, what kind of place is this? Where are you from? More than 20 years ago, you returned to the village half-dead with bruises all over your body, saying that you had lost your cultivation, and you did not want to be neglected by those people anymore, and because you were young and frivolous, you made many enemies, and finally lost your cultivation, have you made up your mind not to go up the mountain again, in order to protect yourself? That's it? Are you sure? ”

As soon as he heard that Old Man Zhan was going to send his children to Daqing Mountain together, the old village chief asked with some worry, and he also knew the reason why Old Man Zhan refused to go back in the first place.

"What's this, what's the use of my little face compared to the children? Moreover, I have also made a lot of contributions to the sect before, although my cultivation is no longer there, but the sect will still remember the contributions I have made to the sect, and will not embarrass me.

In contrast, the future of these children is the most critical, I don't want talents like them to be ruined by one of my fathers, at least, I can't let their "daddy" go to waste, don't you say, brother? ”

Old Man Zhan laughed and slapped him on the shoulder.

The old village chief saw that his father had made up his mind, and he didn't say much, and when he thought that his good friend was about to be separated, he suddenly felt sad and couldn't say a word.

Seeing that the old village chief didn't say a word, Father Zhan also knew that he was uncomfortable, so he stepped forward and gave the twenty-year-old brother a big hug, and then slapped him on the shoulder: "Old thing, when I die, you have to take care of yourself!" ”

The old village chief nodded, without saying a word, took the bamboo basket from the old man Zhan, and walked side by side with the old man Zhan, he wanted to stay in the mountains with the old man Zhan for more than 20 years, both of them are already old, this farewell, I am afraid that they will never see each other again.

Old Man Zhan naturally did not refuse, and the two walked towards the mountain together. On this day, at noon, the old village chief did not go back to lunch, but drank and cried bitterly with his two old men at the house of the old man of the war family. Zhan Wuji and the others were frightened and kept persuading, but it had no effect.

On the second day, before dawn, the father of the Zhan family led Zhan Wuji and the others to quietly leave the village.
