Chapter 36 Honored as the God of Hunting
The group walked through the market and looked west, where hundreds of homes on the western hillside were bathed in the morning mist. The bluestone courtyards www.biquge.info the pen "Fun" Pavilion are scattered, simple and unpretentious, but quiet and elegant. The eastern sky is full of colorful clouds, the sun is jumping, and the red sun is smiling, gently caressing the people in the dream world here. The morning breeze is cool, and the jade tomb wafts with bursts of floral fragrance, and the mellow fragrance touches the heart.
After walking through the gap and walking for a while, a family appeared in front of me, a bluestone fence to protect the courtyard, and a black courtyard. Stopping in front of the door, pinching his fingers and counting, Nangong looked meaningfully at Liuhedong's home, and then turned around and asked, "Whose house is this?"
Cheng Donglai stepped forward and said with a smile: "Hehe, this is my grandson Cheng Hua's family." Senior brother doesn't have to be taboo, just go in. Nangong was slightly stunned when he heard this, and said, "Oh!" and then retreated and motioned for Cheng Dong to call the door. Cheng Donglai patted lightly, and was about to shout, when the door creaked open, and it turned out to be unlocked. The four looked at each other for a while, and Cheng Donglai took the lead in stepping into the hospital one after another. The courtyard is very spacious, and due north are three bluestone bungalows. There are several wings on the left and right. It is covered with many animal skin herbs. Due south is a large vegetable garden, where all kinds of vegetables are thriving and standing tall in the morning mist.
The four of them were looking around, and a figure flashed out of the three bluestone rooms, the figure was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "My God, what kind of wind is it today, how did you invite a few elders, when did this arrive, it is really a sin to keep you waiting for a long time." Hurry up and invite to the middle of the house, and wait for the juniors to serve a few cups of coarse tea. After speaking, he bowed deeply.
Nangong listened and looked at the young woman in pink in front of her, who was quite attractive, and turned back to everyone and said: "Well, this must be the granddaughter-in-law from the east, such a handsome girl, who came to visit rashly early in the morning, and hopes that the granddaughter-in-law is not strange." Cheng Donglai nodded and said, "It's this child, senior brother just calls her Ning'er." ”
"Giggles, grandpa, don't say that, it's rare to see you, it's too late to be happy, why do you say it rashly. Cheng Hua's wife, Qin Ning, stepped aside and respectfully invited the four of them to enter the house.
Nangong stroked his beard and said with a smile: "You're welcome, I'm here today to congratulate you, can you tell grandpa how many children you have?"
"Hexi," Qin Ning was a little confused when he heard this, and secretly pondered in his heart, is it wrong, where is the happy event in the family, and what does it have to do with the two children? Even if there is a happy event, how can there be such a big face, let the elder of the village come to the door to congratulate him in person. shook his head lightly, and said with a wry smile: "Grandpa Nangong, forgive the younger generations for being rude, probably a few grandfathers made a mistake, how can there be any happy events in the family, if you want to say that there is one thing to worry about." I have two children, a boy and a girl, the boy is called Yuanfang and the girl is called Shifeng. Far away, this boy went out hunting, and he didn't come back for two or three days, worried that something would happen to him, and his father and I were in a dilemma. As he spoke, his eyes turned red, and tears fell.
Glancing towards the east wing, Nangong listened and looked at the young mother who was thinking about her and said, "Hehe, don't cry your granddaughter-in-law, I guessed right, Fang'er lives in the east wing, right?"
"Exactly, how does Grandpa Nangong know? He has been sleeping alone in the east wing since he was very young. Qin Ning replied.
"Then don't you wake up Fang Er and see a few elders and grandfathers?" Cheng Donglai said after raising his head and taking a sip of wine.
Qin Ning looked at several elders and was about to speak, but saw them nodding one after another. Nangong said softly: "Go, he slept in the east wing." ”
Qin Ning was puzzled, ran to the east wing in a few steps, suddenly opened the door of Cheng Yuan's room, and jumped into the room. In the neat room, there is a red lacquered table of eight immortals in the center, and a set of white porcelain tea sets is placed in the center of the table. The sun shines through the window on the bed across from the window, and a familiar black figure is lying on his back. The prey, whose face was tired, with a bow and arrows and a bag of animal skins on his back, fell asleep soundly. Qin Ning happily didn't know what to do, quietly walked to his son's side, gently stroked the strands of hair scattered on his son's forehead, his handsome face, his face was a little dark, his forehead was broad, and there was a tire mark in the middle, like a crescent moon, and like a trace of one eye closed. Looking up and seeing that several elders were already standing outside the door, Qin Ning hurriedly got up to greet him, and said apologetically: "The juniors are rude, a few grandfathers, please come in." Then he picked up the teapot on the table and went out.
The four of them came in and sat at the table of the Eight Immortals, quietly staring at the black-clothed young man on the bed. Fifteen or sixteen years old, dressed in black, with a sword on his back, but no third eye on his forehead. The others are as depicted in the hunting picture of the Orion Temple. It is not certain that he is the Xuanxing boy, this matter is related to the legacy of the ancestors, and the people in the world must be cautious. His gaze fell on the animal skin package pressed under the back of the black-clothed young man, which was five or six feet long, and he could easily see through the contents with the eyes of a cultivator. The emerald green brilliance was faintly leaking out, and the thin leather could not hide the aura of the emerald tooth lin. Although this kind of sacred object is rarely seen once in a thousand years, its appearance is almost known to children in the mountain village, and the people in the village like to carve the green tooth lin on the wooden board, bamboo board, wall, and even the gate every New Year's holiday, which is said to ward off evil spirits and pray for blessings.
The four of them looked at the young man silently, Qin Ning hurriedly came with a pot of hot tea, changed the cup, poured fragrant mountain tea for the four elders, and suddenly a sweet smell wafted in the room. Qin Ning Wanfu said: "A few grandfathers, please use it slowly, there is no good tea at home, please forgive me." Then quietly flashed to the side, and the four of them chatted softly while drinking tea.
Qin Ning, who was standing on the side, was still puzzled, how could his son's return alarm a few elders? Could it be that he caused trouble, shouldn't it, Grandpa Nangong said that he was here to congratulate him, and he didn't mean to blame. Seeing a few people talking, it was not good for the juniors to interject casually, so they had to hold something in their stomachs, observe their words and looks, and carefully serve a few elders with tea.
While chatting, there was a sound of gongs and drums beating and suona crying from far away outside the door, from far to near, listening to it, the deafening noise actually stopped at the door of his house, and Qin Ning was even more confused.
Nangong looked at Qin Ning, who was puzzled, and said with a smile: "Daughter-in-law, don't blame, I'm in a hurry today, and when I come back from afar, he will explain it to you in detail." Then he got up and picked up Cheng Yuanfang on the bed, and walked out of the east wing to the outside of the courtyard. I saw that there were already people outside the door, and it was blocked. It was Dongfang Hate Snow who was the leader, but at this time, the Floating Star Cold Sword in his arms was gone, but his gaze was still cold. Seeing that Nangong heard and waited out, he turned around and waved his hand, and immediately calmed down, and then said to Nangong Tingduan: "Back to the words of the senior brothers, everything is ready." ”
Put down Cheng Yuanfang and be supported by Dongfang Hate Snow. Nangong nodded slightly, found a higher place to stand, looked at the black crowd for a while, and his eyes fell on the sixteen open-air hero sedan chairs behind Dongfang Hatxue, the shape of the dragon body, made of strange wood, and the natural texture was like pieces of dragon scales. The wood is golden, glowing and dazzling in the sun. For more than 3,000 years, the ancestors left this treasure in the hall of the Elders' House, and no one has been qualified to sit on it. But it's a pity, maybe this is the first and last time, and I feel infinite emotion in my heart. His eyes turned to the crowd again, and Nangong heard the loud praise: "Paint for the God of Hunting!" "God of Hunting, the elder of the village owner called that child the God of Hunting?" There was a commotion in the crowd, but it quickly regained its calm, and one eye stared at it.
As soon as Nangong heard the words, several people immediately stepped forward to put on red and green for Cheng Yuanfang, who was still sleeping, and was busy for a while, but it was ridiculous that Cheng Yuanfang was confused, and he thought he was dreaming in a haze, and his ears were sometimes noisy, sometimes quiet and tranquil. It seems that there are still people who dress themselves. The two scripts were able to stand, and their consciousness was still in their dreams.
Seeing that the draping was completed, Nangong heard it and praised loudly: "Help the hunting god get on the sedan chair!" Dongfang Hate Xue put the confused Cheng Yuanfang on the seat of the hero's sedan chair.
"Ivory crest, please!" Nangong listened and said again. Jade Dance Yingying stepped onto the hero's sedan chair, holding a hat made of colorful feathers in both hands and gently wearing it on Cheng Yuanfang's head. I saw that the lower part of the feather crown was shining with silver, like clear snow like white jade, warm and moist, very lovely.
Looking at the handsome face under the crown of ivory feathers, there was a hint of comfort in his eyes. Nangong heard this, cleared his throat, raised his voice, and said again: "Take out a pair of twin teeth of the hero who hunted the emerald tooth and the spirit rhino and put it on the treasure offering platform." Jade Dance gently brushed aside the animal skin, and immediately two green rays of light flashed towards the crowd. "Wow! What a treasure this is! It's amazing! It's so beautiful! The crowd erupted in amazement. Some people couldn't help but talk about it, but the voice was very small. Put the two emerald teeth on the treasure offering platform with the protruding position of the dragon head in front of the sedan chair, and the jade dance turned around and floated down the hero sedan chair.
"Mingle! Get up to the Elder's House!" Nangong heard the words fall, tick-tick, knock-knock, and drums rang out in unison, and a large group of people were led towards the Elders' House by the five elders themselves. It was this scene that Liu Hedong and Cheng Hua saw. Suddenly, he heard someone in the crowd shouting that Cheng Yuanfang's father was coming, and Fang pulled back Nangong's thoughts. The team continued to the east.
In the far corner, a figure watched all this from the shadows, snorted, turned his head and disappeared.
