Chapter 280: Facing Reality

The large house, which is made entirely of bamboo, is filled with a strong smell of bamboo.

It is a faint fragrance that calms the mind and dispels tiredness.

This is also the reason why the old man used bamboo in the first place to build the house.

From a distance, Xiao Chen and the others live in a house made of bamboo, and the house is green throughout, showing an extraordinary temperament.

And at the moment, in the house.

The hall of the house, which is the reception hall, is also the place where the lord drinks tea and chats.

Unfortunately, very few people have ever been to this place.

In other words, few people can find their way to the island.

The old man sat at the top and unhurriedly picked up a cup of tea to taste.

"Tsk. ”

The old man took a sip of tea, only to feel that his lips and teeth were fragrant, and the aftertaste was sweet.

"Good tea. The old man praised.

In fact, these teas are the tea that Uncle Gong planted in the backyard when he had nothing to do.

After the tea leaves are ripe, they are picked and then made by Uncle Gong's special method, and they become very fragrant and excellent tea.

The old man suddenly remembered something, and muttered to himself: "This damn old fellow, hunched back and running around, running without me, causing me to stay on the island by myself, very boring!"

The old man felt a big head for Uncle Gong's ability to do things.

Uncle Gong believes that the soldiers and generals raised in the mansion are useless people, and only by pulling them out to the battlefield can they be regarded as real men.

After that, Uncle Gong took everyone on the island away.

Only the master, Xiaochen, Xiaoding, Xiaoxiang, Xiaohong and others were left.

The sunlight rushed in through the cracks in the courtyard and hit the ground, shining on everything.

The old man shook his ears, and he could still hear Xiao Chen's voice when he interrogated the prisoner.

Xiao Chen is good at everything, but he is not shrewd enough.

In the master's opinion, it is a waste of time that a trivial matter can be interrogated for half a day.

The lord didn't care at all about where they came from, where they were going, or why the two groups of men were fighting.

All the lord cared about was the three ships.

With those three ships, you can go to sea and go to find your unfashionable sons and daughters, as well as the hunchbacked old man Uncle Gong.

After a long time, Xiao Chen walked slowly.

When Xiao Chen saw the master, he immediately gave a salute and bowed his hand, with a respectful attitude.

The old man waved his hand, indicating that there was no need to be polite.

Xiao Chen cleared his throat, with a slightly serious expression on his face, and said, "Master, I have already found out the reason why the two groups of them are fighting. ”

The old man didn't raise his head and said, "Say." ”

Xiao Chen said: "Those blonde and blue-eyed people are from another country, and the people's livelihood in that country is chaotic, so they have to come to the Central Plains to take refuge, but they are used to the sea, not the Central Plains, so they directly sailed here." ”

Xiao Chen paused and looked at the old man's expression.

The old man pinched a bunch of grapes and ate them slowly.

Xiao Chen continued: "As for the two groups of them fighting, it was a complete misunderstanding. ”

The old man said, "Go on, you are not allowed to stop until you finish speaking." ”

Xiao Chen said: "The reason why the two groups of them fought was that the officers and soldiers accidentally scratched the ship of the blonde and blue-eyed people, and the blonde and blue-eyed people were angry, so they naturally started to fight directly. ”

The old man asked, "Then how did they get to the vicinity of the island?"

Xiao Chen said: "This is purely a coincidence, Uncle Gong came back and went out before, and when he went out, he didn't put the formation in place, and the formation couldn't play a role, so he naturally exposed the island." ”

Xiao Chen continued: "That's it, the blonde and blue-eyed men and the officers and soldiers fought all the way, and they entered the range of the island by mistake, and then they were suppressed by us. ”

The old man said, "What do you think is the right way to deal with these people?

Hearing this, Xiao Chen said: "It's better to stay all of them, after all, they are all living lives." ”

The old man nodded, quite satisfied with Xiao Chen's approach.

Immediately, the lord summoned the remaining people on the island to the hall to discuss the matter.

It didn't take half a quarter of an hour for everyone to come.

The old man looked at Xiaochen, Xiaoding, Xiaoxiang and Xiaohong.

The four of them stood aside respectfully, quietly, without saying a word.

The old man said: "You have been with me for so many years, even the youngest Xiao Ding, you have been on this island for a long time, so long that I don't remember the time. ”

Xiao Ding said: "Xiao Ding is willing to stay on the island and accompany the master." ”

The old man waved his hand and said, "Can't you be accompanied if you don't have it on the island?"

The old man said impatiently: "To make a long story short, I never let you out of the island before, and then Uncle Gong's old boy took everyone away, but when there were only a few of you left, I knew that you also wanted to be able to go out of the island one day." ”

Xiaochen Xiaoding Xiaohong Xiaoxiang looked at each other, quite embarrassed.

The old man continued: "But who knows, Uncle Gong's old boy actually drove away all the boats in the family, not only kidnapping my people, but also taking the boats away..."

The old man continued: "I also want to go out for a walk, since Uncle Gong is gone, I am simply looking through the autumn water, until these outsiders send it to the door, I can't help but sigh that the world is impermanent." ”

"So, do you want to go out for a walk?"

The old man picked up the teacup, blew it gently, approached his mouth, and took a sip slowly.

Xiaochen Xiaoding, Xiaohong and Xiaoxiang glanced at each other, and said in unison: "I want to!"

The old man waved his hand and said, "Hurry back and pack your things, and set off now!" As for those prisoners who were captured by us, they will be imprisoned on the big ship for the time being, and then we will go to sea in the big boat, and after going to sea, these prisoners can be directly handed over to the government, and the government will decide on its own. ”

Everyone nodded their heads and bowed their heads, without any opinion.

Then, everyone ran back to the room to pack their clothes like oil under their feet.

The old man smiled, he hadn't set foot in the Central Plains for a long time, and he didn't know what the Central Plains was like now.

In other words, this old man also really wants to go back to the Central Plains to see.

On the one hand, look at the changes in the Central Plains in recent years, and on the other hand, see if your son and daughter have caused a big disaster.

What's more important is that Uncle Gong, who has always been steady, actually led everyone to the Central Plains this time.

What happened in the Central Plains?

Why did Uncle Gong act like this?

If something goes wrong, there must be a demon!

I'm afraid the Central Plains is not peaceful.

This made him have to worry.

He was afraid that something would happen to Uncle Gong, after all, Uncle Gong was already old.

Therefore, it is reasonable for him to go to the Central Plains to have a look, otherwise he will be uneasy.

The old man suddenly stood up and looked into the distance.

At this moment, it is like looking at the Central Plains back then.

For a while, I had a lot of troubles in my heart, and I didn't know how to vent.

"Alas, escaping will not solve the problem, and we will have to go back and see after all. ”
