Chapter 24 asked

The Zhou Mansion looks a little busy today.

Liu Heng came to the small gate of the Zhou Mansion early, but he didn't see the old beard, but he saw a lot of people busy going in and out, and he found a familiar one to inquire a little and found out that it was the third son of the Zhou Mansion who went out hunting and was coming back today.

Liu Heng had no choice but to wait outside the door in a low-key manner.

After more than half an hour, I finally heard the sound of the carriage, but it was the old beard who carried about a dozen carriages, pulling all kinds of things to the small door, only the last car, a few dead pheasants and mountain jumps, it seemed that the third prince had the harvest of this trip, but there were several carriages, and there were more than a dozen young and beautiful maids and maids.

Liu Heng lowered his head, not daring to look.

He just exchanged a look with the old beard.

People entered the house, the carriages and horses also entered the house, and the old beard explained things clearly, so he walked out of the door, saw that there was no one near the left, and asked Liu Heng: "When did you come back?"

Liu Heng smiled when he heard this, but just said: "I rented a small courtyard in the south of the city, and I will live in this city in the future, I am afraid that I will inevitably bother you." ”

Lao Hu was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then nodded and said, "I'll find a place at noon, you accompany your Grandpa Hu and I to have two drinks, and tell me about the past two months." ”

Liu Heng laughed and said, "Okay." I invited Grandpa Hu for a drink. ”

Having said that, the old beard was obviously not ready to let Liu Heng invite him to drink.

At this time, he turned around and entered the house, explained some things, and came out again, but he took Liu Heng along this alley and continued to walk north, and when he came to the end, he turned around and there was a narrow door.

This is still the mansion of the Zhou Mansion, but this door is not the door of the Zhou Mansion.

The subordinates and their families lived in this place.

As the deputy head of the Zhou Mansion, Lao Hu Tou has a small courtyard with a separate courtyard in this door.

The old beard has never married, has no children and no daughters, and lives here alone.

The yard is small but secluded.

Compared to the small yard that Liu Heng spent money to rent, I don't know how many times better.

Soon after the two returned home and sat down, there was a knock on the door outside, and then a table of four cold, four hot and eight dishes was delivered.

A jug of wine, two cups.

A pot of brewed hot tea.

A plate of chilled watermelon, sliced.

Everything was arranged, and a person dressed as a steward who took the lead in delivering the food flattered the old beard a few more words, and then took the people away.

Among the four hot dishes, there is a roast rabbit.

Lao Hu tore off a rabbit leg and handed it to Liu Heng, and then ripped off another one, and while eating, he smiled and sighed to Liu Heng: "No way, I'm addicted to eating this thing." ”

Liu Heng smiled when he heard this.

The rabbit should have just been baked, and it was extremely hot, and a strange aroma made the nose itch - Liu Heng had also roasted the rabbit many times, but he had never roasted it so well.

He finally tore it off, and then he couldn't help but feast on it.

The two were eating, and the old beard persuaded him to drink, so Liu Heng drank carefully.

This wine is a little spicy to drink, far more powerful than the kind of fruit wine drunk in Wangyun Mountain City, there is no fruity aroma, but there is also an indescribable wonderful aroma.

He took small bites, eating and drinking.

After about a cup of tea, a rabbit entered the belly of the old beard.

He looked satisfied, then put away Fang Cai's gluttonous appearance, washed his hands, began to eat vegetables seriously, drank wine, and then said: "Tell me? What's going on? Don't you dare to say it at the door?"

Of course, there are things to say, but in fact, the two months before and after add up to just a few words.

Needless to say, the distance is long, and there is no need to say that the brothers are separated.

It is enough to say the results.

All three siblings stayed, and he was the only one who returned.

He got a "Ding" and was judged to have no cultivation talent.

The old beard was a little surprised when he heard this, and when he heard this "Ding", he rolled up his beard.

"This Ding ......" After taking a sip of wine, he hesitated to phrase and said, "Actually, it's nothing, most people are like that." Cultivating immortals, in the final analysis, is really just a matter of a few people. ”

After a pause, he said, "But in fact, this thing doesn't have to be absolutely true. I don't know about others, I don't dare to say nonsense, the eldest prince in our house, in fact, the test results are only C, and the other young ladies are all Ding!

Speaking of this, he shook his head, "Talent is this thing...... Hey hey ......"

As he spoke, Liu Heng just listened.

At this time, the old beard suddenly approached and asked in a low voice, "You can see those things like that, didn't you say it?"

Liu Heng shook his head and said, "I didn't dare." ”

The old beard nodded and said to Liu Heng: "It's right if you don't say it!

He sighed with emotion and said, "These immortal cultivators are in the dark!"

As he spoke, he drank another glass of wine, and his face full of vicissitudes suddenly showed some pride, and said: "Besides, what's wrong if you can't cultivate immortals? There are three thousand avenues, and the immortal road is just one of them! Chen Miniang entered the Tao with filial piety, and she had to take revenge in 20 years, Gan Zilu took her heart as the heaven and earth, and later she was not worthy of the temple as the thirty-six sages?"

He patiently enlightened: "Besides, even if you are not qualified to cultivate immortals, your three younger brothers and sisters are all left, as long as they can stay in the Wangyun Mountain Sect, that is the biggest reliance in your life! Speaking of which, even the city lord is afraid that he will win you over! When you are free, you will come to me for a drink, and we will play chess, wouldn't it be beautiful? Why do you have to think about the painstaking cultivation of immortals?"

Liu Heng shook his head with a smile when he heard this, "I don't plan to tell anyone, let alone publicize it, I have already told the people in our village, don't tell me anything." ”

The old beard glanced at him, sighed, and said, "Fool!"

With a tilt of his neck, a glass of wine went down again.

Then he said: "That's okay! It just so happens that your three younger siblings have left you, if you want, I will arrange an errand for you in the Zhou family, how about taking care of the peace and ease?"

Liu Heng just smiled when he heard this, and said, "Grandpa Hu, I want to learn martial arts." ”

The old beard's chopsticks stopped in mid-air and turned his head to look at Liu Heng.

Then, suddenly, he laughed slowly.

Eventually, he shook his head and slapped his chopsticks on the table.

"You!" he sighed, "tell me, how do you want me to help you?"

Liu Heng said: "I need to find a job to support my family, and I feel that I am still young, so it is not good to start thinking about retirement from this time, so I want to ...... Can you please help me inquire, see if the Shunyuan dart bureau in the city is still recruiting? Even if I am a horse feeder and sweep the floor, I can do it. ”
