Chapter 13: The Night Feast
Yu Futian's figure trembled slightly, and he looked at the young man in front of him who was fit and quite personable, and vaguely remembered the scene when Yu Xi left with the immortals, the child turned back frequently, with a few drops of eyes on his chin, and ran back several times.
"Xi'er, really...... Is that you?"
Yu Xi stepped forward, knelt on the ground, kept kowtowing, and said in a low voice: "Xi'er is not filial, and his son only comes back once in six years!"
Yu Futian held him up, didn't blame him, put his hands on Yu Xi's shoulders, choked and repeated: "I know to come back, okay, okay!"
When the woman's longing son finally returned, she couldn't hide her joy, so she came over and pulled Yu Xi, looked at it carefully, wiped the corners of her eyes, and said with a smile: "Daddy, you see how strong Xi'er is now, when he was young, the wind blew and he fell down." ”
Yu Xi went to dispose of the corpse, Yu's father sat on the threshold and smoked a cigarette and didn't know what to think, and then silently took a hammer and began to repair the firewood door, Yu's mother learned that the maid came with her son, so she took her to take a bath and change clothes.
The girl seems to have fallen into the rice field.
In the past, the corpses were buried one by one in the mountains and forests.
After burying the body, the sunset hung in the sky.
Yu Xi heard the babbling sound of the maid on the other side of the rice field, and when he looked from afar, he saw that the girl was also standing on the edge of the ditch in the rice field and screaming.
It turned out that my father was fishing.
Use a bamboo strip to form a circle, put a special long bamboo basket on the other side of the ditch, put the bamboo circle under the water, rhythmically step on the bamboo circle while lifting, until you step on the bamboo basket position, pick up the bamboo basket, it becomes a harvest of some fish, shrimp and field crabs.
Yu Xi walked over, looked at the finished product in the back basket, and knew that his father was ruthless.
During dinner, Yu Futian asked him if he had stolen anything, what was going on with these people today, Yu's father's words made Yu's mother unhappy, and snatched Yu's father's bowl and scolded him:
"Look at your virtues, and look at Xi'er, will he steal things? When he was young, no matter how poor his family was, did you see him steal pomegranates from other people's trees?"
I don't know how much this kid has been wronged and how much he has suffered outside.
"Daddy, Xi'er is fine, you don't have to worry, now the child is already an immortal, and ordinary people can't do anything to me. ”
Yu Xi gave the vegetables to Yu's mother, stood up and returned the bowl to Yu's father.
At this time, the girl led a yellow dog into the house, she ran to the kitchen and picked up a bowl, carried a small stool to look at Yu Xi, pretended to be well-behaved, and sat down to pick up vegetables.
"Whose child is this?" asked Yu Xi with a smile.
"I'm my child!" the girl stood on a stool looking for fish to eat, holding the bowl, and the maid put a small fish in her bowl.
"Her name is Niwa'er, your second uncle's family, at home...... There is only this baby and this earth dog left, this baby is very strong, ask her to move in with us, she is unwilling, she has to go home and sleep every day. ”
Yu's mother looked at the mud baby and said distressedly.
"Second Uncle...... Is something wrong?" asked Yu Xi in a deep voice.
"Two years ago, the city lord of Liuyang City died, the new city lord is called Qi Zhao, he loves to refine medicine, and sends people to various towns and villages every month to sell his spiritual liquid, your second uncle has seen a lot, and knows that the so-called spiritual liquid is the residual water of the medicine residue, of course he refused to buy it, and then a large group of people came to the city......"
Father Yu said.
"In recent years, when I came to sell it every month, a small bottle was a hundred copper coins, but it hurt the surrounding towns and villages. Yu's mother took out a bottle under the table in front of the hall and handed it to Yu Xi.
Yu Yu's face was gloomy, where is this spiritual liquid, as the second uncle said, the waste water mixed with the medicine residue is of little use, and some poisonous medicine residue will even seriously damage the body of mortals.
............
Three days later, Yu Xi took an axe up the mountain and cut more than 1,000 catties of wood and piled it up next to his house.
Wearing the linen clothes specially prepared by Yu's mother, he practiced his knife skills every afternoon, and at night he thought about how to integrate his magic skills into his own knife skills.
In the past three days, Yu Xi has been completely familiar with the mud baby, and the mud baby has become a follower, shouting "Brother Yu Xi!" when there is nothing to do!"
The villagers also knew that Yu Futian's son of Xiuxian was back, watching the excitement, asking for the elixir to cure the disease, and the people who climbed relatives crowded into the house in groups, although Yu's mother was too busy to come, and the boiling water was poured until her hands were soft, but she was still really happy in her heart.
It's been a long time since the house has been so lively.
For the next half a month, Yu Xi stayed with his parents.
Farming, walking, talking and discussing with my father which girl is the right girl.
Before leaving, Yu Xi gave Yu Mu some pills suitable for recuperating the body, and gave her the fabrics prepared in advance.
Yu Xi took the maid and said goodbye to Yu's father and mother.
After sending more than five miles away, they stood and looked at their son's figure as he walked away, wondering if this farewell would be when.
............
Yu Xi once again borrowed the image of Nanmu and walked in the direction of Liuyang City, and met a few people who were dragging a carriage to sell spiritual liquid on the way, and after thinking about it, he didn't slap them to death, but bypassed them.
The maid filled the jug with water, and when she was thirsty, she took a sip, she was very fond of her hands now, and when she was leaving, her mother gave her a pair of embroidered white gloves, and she put them on, and the two rubber scars on her hands were invisible.
Liuyang City.
"City Lord Qi, what's different today than usual?" spoke to an old man with a goatee, his eyes were full of meaning.
"Hehe, Mr. Duan, today I have carefully selected a group of virgins with a superior posture for you, and I hope that Mr. will ......" Qi Zhao said embarrassedly on the main seat.
"Don't worry, I'll give you that second product tomorrow. ”
"Haha, yes! Sir, I'll go to the feast. ”
............
There was an old man at the gate of Liuyang City who had been sitting on the city wall for a long time, his face was bloodless, his eyes were white, and his face was full of numbness.
The maid patted Yu Xi's shoulder, and kept pointing at the old man, Yu Xi looked, isn't this the old farmer who used an ox cart to send him back to Shao Village before?
"Old Bei, what's going on?" asked Yu Xi.
The old farmer glanced at him, but he didn't come back to his senses, Yu Xi had a little spiritual power on his forehead, and his head was shocked, and he sobered up a lot.
Seeing that it was Yu Xi, he knelt down, and said with tears in his eyes:
"Immortal, please save my granddaughter, Qi Zhao took my only granddaughter away, my Lian'er, they want to bully my Lian'er!"
Yu Xi patted the old farmer on the shoulder and said:
"Lao Bei, you go to the west of the city and wait, it just so happens that I have a little personal matter to find him!"
The old peasant stood still and looked at the departing Yu Xi, begging God in his hands, hoping that the last bit of illusion would not be shattered again.
Yu Xi placed the maid in an inn, grabbed a soldier's tongue by himself, knew the location of the city lord's mansion, and roughly understood some information.
It turned out that Qi Zhao invited a second-grade alchemist to teach him alchemy, the tuition fee was quite high, Qi Zhao had to use various methods to catch money, and Mr. Duan was a womanizer, and every five days he asked Qi Zhao to prepare a night banquet, catch twenty young virgins, and let him do things, tonight is the time of the night banquet.
stunned the soldier with a palm, Yu Xi looked at the city lord's mansion and thought about it.
At this time, in the city lord's mansion, a wide stage was built in the center, and there were light gauze curtains on the four sides of the stage and above, and most of the twenty girls were weakly paralyzed on the stage, their eyes confused.
Xiaolian was also among them, she was arrested, first forcibly washed, and then fed medicine, she only felt that her body was unspeakably uncomfortable, and then she was changed into embarrassing clothes and carried to the stage, she wanted to leave, but she was weak and weak.
A few people regained their senses, and they made indescribable noises because they were voluntary.
"Haha, this batch is good!"
Duan Ye saw from afar that today's batch of fruits is excellent.
On both sides of the stage are women in white clothes, divided into fifteen people, sitting cross-legged and playing music.
The ancient sound sounded, the piano sound was around the ears, the singing was ecstatic, Duan Ye first shook his head and shook his head, closed his eyes and enjoyed it slowly.
Then he walked to the table on the edge of the stage, and said lightly to Qi Zhao, who had been waiting for a long time:
"If the City Lord of Qi can maintain this level in the future, I can say good things for you in front of the master and let him accept you as an apprentice. ”
Qi Zhao was flattered and arched his hand: "Then please Mr. Duan!"
Duan Ye waved his sleeves and sat down, pointing to a sober woman in the center of the stage and said:
"You come out first and drink with the old man!"
The woman in question made a few daughterly gestures, stepped off the stage, and threw herself into her arms.
"Ahem, Mr. Duan is busy first, and he will go to the next review method!"
Duan Ye, who was doing that reluctantly thing with his eyes closed, nodded.
After a while, after finishing the meal, he hung the panting woman on his back, and the old god was there to open the curtain, and was about to untie the loose nightgown, when suddenly he saw a shadow beside him.
"Who is Your Excellency?"
Yu Xi sensed that the strength of the old man in front of him was condensing qi sixfold, and it was not high.
"Are you Duanye?" Yu Xi said lightly.
When did this person come, why did he disappear quietly, Duan Ye couldn't perceive Yu Yu's strength in the past, so he had to stabilize his hand first, and said:
"The old man is Duanye, if Your Excellency is interested in these people, today's night banquet will be all Your Excellency!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Duan Ye threw the hanging woman towards Yu Xi, but he ran into the stage, took a few steps back, and at the same time, shouted:
"Someone! There are assassins!"
Yu Xi hugged the woman, and the woman in turn gave Yu Xi a dagger in a panic, but the girl was obviously not professional, and she was still a few centimeters away from Yu Xi's vital point.
Where did this woman get her knife?
It turned out that when she was hanging on Duan Ye's body, Duan Ye secretly stuffed a knife in her palm, Yu Xi was furious, and threw the woman away to kill her with a knife.
At the same time, there was blood on the left side of Yu Xi's chest, and the pain was terrible.
"Haha, I thought I was a veteran, but I didn't expect to be a soft-hearted rookie. Duan Ye walked out, and at the same time, Qi Zhao, who heard Duan Ye asking for help, also surrounded the place with a group of soldiers.
"Mr. Duan, is there any big problem?" Qi Zhao asked anxiously.
Duanmu waved his hand, and said in a strange tone: "You guys deal with him, I still have business............!
Qi Zhao carefully looked at the injured Yu Xi, and waved his hand to let the soldiers and guards all go up.
This end of the industry is scheming, and his strength is not high, but he knows that it stimulates Yu Xi, and he secretly swallowed a few pills from his cuffs, and looked at the girl with great interest, while looking at Yu Xi outside.
Duanye thought to himself: It's good that I'm smart, otherwise I would have confessed here.
The strength of this assassin is undetectable, he is skilled in swordsmanship, and he should be of some level, but unfortunately his head is not bright, and he was put on a table by me, hehe, he can't run.
"You two, bring that woman to the old man, she looks good!"
Duan Ye ordered two sober women to bring Xiaolian over.
