Chen Yijian, who walked out of the courtyard of the Yuan family, did not deliberately speed up the pace of his feet. I didn't go to the weasels and the crested starlings to find them. He carried the bronze tripod on his shoulders like this, and walked along the side of the weeping willow stream, sometimes glancing at the gurgling water in the stream, and sometimes at the row of houses of different heights on the other side of the stream.

Because it was dinner time, in that row of houses, almost three or five people could be seen sitting around a table of eight immortals. Everyone has a bright smile on their faces, holding dishes and chopsticks in their hands, eating delicious meals while talking and laughing at their families.

The people of the small town are not like everyone in a big family. Even to eat, you need to take out a separate house. Most of them sit in the living room facing the main gate to eat, and some have a small courtyard, which will directly set up a table in the small courtyard and then sit in the courtyard to eat. Blowing the refreshing cool breeze of autumn, accompanied by the hot food just out of the pot, I don't think it will be too hot.

On the brick-paved streamside streets, there are always children running by. Three, three, two, two, two, two, three, three, two, three, two, three, three, two, three And at this time, behind them, there will always be an elder in the family, male or female. Facing them who were running in front, in order to play, they couldn't even take care of going home to eat, and they opened their throats and called out loudly.

This made Chen Yijian, who was walking on the other side of the stream, couldn't help but have a trace of nostalgia on his cheeks.

When I was young, didn't I often play with my companions, and I didn't even know how to go home to eat. Then the kind grandmother, with a cane in her hand, and with the support of her sister, followed her with some difficulty, with a wrinkled cheek, but with a kind smile, she called to herself that it was time to go home for dinner, and it was not too late to play after eating.

And the sister who is holding her grandmother will be at this time. With a big smile on her face, she told herself that she had found a very interesting gadget from outside, and said that if I didn't go back, she would hide it from herself.

Chen Yijian, who was still young at the time, naturally believed it easily. Then I ran home to see the little thing my sister had said. As a result, there are no gadgets, nothing more than some boring dolls bought from outside.

Thinking of this, the smile on Chen Yijian's face became brighter and brighter. Especially when the appearance of his sister and grandmother appeared in his mind, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but raise a big arc.

The bits and pieces of the past are like clear water flowing in the stream beside you, flowing slowly.

Suddenly, Chen Yijian didn't know why. Originally, there was only my sister and grandmother in my mind, but a woman's figure appeared. Wearing a light blue dress, charming and moving cheeks, and there are thousands of styles between the eyebrows, people can't help but want to take her into their arms and take her for themselves forever.

The woman loves to laugh, especially when she meets her grandmother and sister for the first time. The woman was smiling happily, really happy. Even when she introduced herself to the two, she still smiled and said: "Hello grandma and sister, my name is Qiu Qiao'er, and I am Yijian's favorite person." ”

is different from just now, when Chen Yijian thought of this. The face that was originally full of smiles instantly sank in. A pair of bright eyes are even more sorrowful and unforgettable.

It seemed that a breath of turbid breath that had been accumulated in his heart for a long time was slowly spit out by Chen Yijian. Withdrawing his gaze to the other side, he stopped walking and looked up at the sky that had darkened. Tired birds flew high in it, towards the western sky, flapping their wings as if chasing the setting sun. Perhaps trying to hold back, a pleasant chirp came from their mouths.

Chen Yijian looked up like this and watched the group of birds go west, until they changed into vague black dots in their eyes, and then the black dots completely disappeared. He withdrew his gaze and looked down at the dirt path beneath his feet. He said to himself, "Grandma, are you okay, I miss you a little." ”

The sound of hurried footsteps fell on Chen Yijian's ears a little chaotically.

Without looking back at the person, he already knew in his heart who the person was coming. The faint sorrow on his face was perfectly hidden by his smile. Even the eyes also regained their former brilliance at this moment.

The person who came soon came to Chen Yijian, who was Yuan He, who went out to chase Chen Yijian.

It may be because of the reason that he ran all the way, so Yuan He, who was standing in front of Chen Yijian at this time, was a little out of breath. However, this did not delay his speech: "Chen Gongzi, I'm really embarrassed. Originally, I didn't want to trouble you anymore, after all, you saved Xiaoshan and are the benefactor of our whole family. But this matter is too important, it is related to the lives of all of our Yuan family. So my old Yuan, I can only be cheeky and ask Chen Gongzi to help again. ”

Yuan He didn't beat around the bush, and directly told Chen Yijian all the thoughts of himself and his wife.

After speaking, Yuan He stood a little nervously and looked at Chen Yijian. A pair of cloudy but clean eyes were full of pleading. The palms of the fists that couldn't help clenching were covered with sweat at this time.

Obviously, he has pinned all his hopes on Chen Yijian.

looked at the middle-aged man's clenched fists and the look in his eyes. Chen Yijian did not rush to answer, but after some contemplation. Only then did he say to him, "I can help you, but I have one condition." ”

Yuan He almost didn't think about it, so he said directly: "Chen Gongzi, you said, as long as our Yuan family can do it, I will definitely help Chen Gongzi complete it." ”

As for what took advantage of the fire to rob, knowing that other people's lives were at stake, he still asked for conditions. There is no idea at all that a good man should look like in the rivers and lakes, Yuan He has never thought about it from beginning to end.

Even if he thought about it, he wouldn't feel anything in his heart. Helping people do things and collecting money from people is a matter of course. It's like he usually helps people make furniture, and when he finishes his work, he collects silver taels from people.

A truth!

To put it mildly, if people meet you in Pingshui, why should they help you. Besides, people have saved your daughter before. If you really want to think about it, it only means that your daughter is only worth such a meal.

Chen Yijian smiled and said: "When the time comes, can Uncle Yuan help me make a small object, I will provide the required materials, and Uncle Yuan only needs to help me make it according to my requirements." Okay, Uncle Yuan?"

Yuan He was stunned for a moment, and asked with some uncertainty: "It's that simple?"

In fact, when Chen Yijian said the conditions, Yuan He was ready to bleed in his heart. Even if Chen Yijian asked him for a hundred taels of gold and silver, he would rack his brains to make it up and hand it over to him. But what he really didn't expect was that this young man who not only looked very handsome, but also had such a beautiful heart.

For a while, after saying this, Yuan He was a little at a loss. The excitement in his eyes naturally couldn't be faked, but there was still a somewhat stunned expression on his simple cheeks.

Looking at the look on the man's face, Chen Yijian smiled. He smiled brightly and was very kind. Just like the smile on the woman's face in memory, it's the same!

Chen Yijian said: "Uncle Yuan, go back first, I promise to appear by the river on time tomorrow." ”

Yuan He, who came back to his senses, nodded excitedly. said: "Okay, okay, then I'll go back first, and tomorrow will be all up to Chen Gongzi." ”

Chen Yijian nodded and smiled and said, "Don't worry, Uncle Yuan." ”

The man who was like a big stone in Panasonic's heart, in one step and three times, rushed home with a bright smile on his face. He wanted to tell his wife the good news as soon as possible so that she could be more relaxed. Don't leave the crystal jade beads that should not appear in the eyes of women for the sake of this matter.

Watching the man who came anxiously and left happily. The smile in Chen Yijian's eyes couldn't help but be even more cheerful.

Although even if there was no special request from Yuan He this time, he would have helped the Yuan family, or Yuan Xiaoshan. But I don't know why, Chen Yijian always felt that something was missing in his heart. It wasn't until he met Yuan He that Chen Yijian suddenly woke up, and what was missing was a love word.

Without Yuan He's request, Chen Yijian came out to help the Yuan family. Afterwards, the Yuan family must also be grateful to him, but the effect is always a little bit worse. Now that Yuan He came to ask for it in person, it was completely different. One is to take the initiative, similar to a roar when the road is uneven. One is passively entrusted by others, and the things of good people.

Probably on the surface, there isn't much difference between the two. But once you dig deeper, the meaning is not a level at all. Otherwise, why are there so many people in the world who draw their swords to help when they see injustice, but not only do they not get good rewards afterwards, but they are also disliked and hindered. And those who make a move after others are stalking each other. But he often gets gratitude and reciprocation from others.

In fact, the truth is very simple, kindness can also be measured.

As for Chen Yijian's character, why do you still ask Yuan He for it. In fact, Chen Yijian is also thinking about him, and he doesn't return anything in return. With his current cultivation, he really doesn't care at all. If it weren't for the fact that the Yuan family would feel indebted to him Chen Yijian in their hearts, Chen Yijian really didn't think about what conditions he wanted.

Chen Yijian, who was gradually in a happy mood, no longer had any sorrow in his eyes. He turned his head to look at the people on the other side of the creek and patted the bronze tripod on his shoulder. Chen Yijian took another step and walked leisurely towards the front.

Since the big stone behind it exploded in the Qucheng Yongdao. When Chen Yijian walked, he didn't need to deliberately bow forward to prevent the boulder on his back from slipping.

The straight waist pole reveals the frivolous demeanor that a young man should have.

Steady pace, after each step falls and lifts, there is a vertical and horizontal sword aura.

From the distant Dongsheng Divine Continent, to the Middle Earth Divine Continent. Not to mention that the world is thousands of miles away, at least there is a hundred and eight thousand miles. Then, the sword qi under the young man's feet can be regarded as a stretch of thousands of miles!

The autumn breeze is cool and blowing, blowing the branches and leaves.

The weasel crouching under the tree, as always, has no door on his mouth. From time to time, I will say a sentence or two, and the crested starling standing on the branch of the tree. And the cocktailed starling, who has long been used to it, will also turn back to it.

The two of them have been here for a long time, and they are both waiting for Chen Yijian's arrival. When the two saw Chen Yijian appear at the same time, they stopped boring each other. One flapped its wings, came down from the branch, and landed in front of Chen Yijian. One kicked the trunk with his foot, and he rushed in front of Chen Yijian.

Looking at the two monsters that followed him and also had half a moon, Chen Yijian said with a smile: "As a spirit, you are born with a fear of gods. You don't have to follow me tomorrow, just find a place to stay. ”

The weasel was stunned for a moment, and then his little eyes rolled quickly. A thief's face immediately showed an expression of righteousness and Ling Ran, looking at Chen Yijian's eyes. said: "This way, we are the little brothers." How could I see my eldest brother rushing forward, while we are hiding behind. It's not so reasonable, it's not so reasonable. ”

The crested starling also said: "Yes, big brother, although we are spirits, we are naturally afraid of gods. But you can't hide behind and watch you go on an adventure alone. ”

Chen Yijian was happy, first looking at the crested starling, and then at the weasel. said: "In that case, then you will be with me tomorrow." ”

The cocktail nodded and did not speak.

The weasel who had been talking the most said, "Big brother, can you promise me a condition when the time comes?"

Chen Yijian was stunned for a moment and asked, "What?"

I don't know why, but the weasel has a shy look on his face. Chen Yijian felt goosebumps in his heart, but fortunately, this guy was quite knowledgeable. Seeing Chen Yijian frowning slightly, he immediately put away the shyness on his face. He said solemnly: "If I slaughter that god of rivers and rivers tomorrow, can I share some of his golden body?"

Chen Yijian thought about it, and a bright smile resurfaced on his face. said: "Yes, you and the crested starling will be half of each other at that time." ”

The weasel jumped up and cheered.

The crested starling asked Chen Yijian suspiciously: "Big brother, don't you keep some for yourself?" Although the golden body of the river god is not very high, it is also a god. If you take it, not to mention how good the effect is, it is estimated that it will not be difficult to help the eldest brother improve his cultivation a little, right?"

Hearing this, Chen Yijian couldn't help but feel better and better about the crested starling. Looking at it, there was also a hint of sincerity in its eyes. But he said: "That thing is of little use to me, and I won't tell you the reason." In short, when the time comes, you can do it in two, and you don't need to worry about me. ”

The crested starling nodded, but the doubt on his face became even stronger. However, since Chen Yijian had already said it, it was inconvenient to tell them the reason, so he didn't ask again.

Next, the three of them sat on the ground and rested on the trunk of a thick locust tree.

Because the weather is not bad tonight, the moon is high in the sky, and the stars are shining. It shouldn't be raining, so Chen Yijian didn't bother to go to the town inn. For him, there is actually no substantial difference between sleeping in the wild overnight and lying on a soft collapse. On the contrary, in his heart, he is still more keen on staying overnight in the wilderness.

Whenever in the dead of night, lying on the earth, opening your eyes, you will see the bright stars in the sky, and a round of soft and glorious moonlight, which makes people feel comfortable. And, in some off-the-beaten-path places. From time to time, you can still meet one or two ghosts, which makes Chen Yijian, who has no intention of sleeping for a long night, have an extra fun to relieve his boredom.

The next day, the sun rose. Warm light sloping through the lush foliage overhead. The stars are dotted, like real money everywhere, waking up the sleeping three.

Chen Yijian stretched out his hand and picked up the bronze tripod that was placed aside, looking at the weasel and the crested starling. With a bright smile on his face, he said, "You two go out to find something to eat by yourself, and then go directly to the small temple by the river to wait for me." I went to meet an old friend and stopped by for breakfast. ”

In this regard, the crested starling has no opinion. With a wave of his wings, he rushed into the air. It's a weasel, looking at Chen Yijian who is about to turn around. With an unhappy expression on his face, he said, "Big brother, how can you not bring me with you if you eat such a big bargain." Why don't I go with you?"

Chen Yijian said with a smile: "If you want to go, you can go, anyway, my friend hates monsters the most in his life." Every time I see a monster, I either kill all three souls and seven spirits with one sword, or I go down with a sword, so that they completely disappear, and there is no chance of reincarnation. If you ......"

Before he finished speaking, Chen Yijian saw a yellow light flash in front of him. Look again, where is the figure of the weasel.

Chen Yijian smiled and didn't say anything more. Turning and taking a step, he walked towards the town.

Soon, Chen Yijian, who was carrying Dading, had already come to the gate of the town and county. Looking at the county government that had already opened the door, Chen Yijian stepped forward and said to the two officials standing at the door: "When I am tired, I will say that I am a friend of the Taoist priest of Longhu Mountain." ”

The two officials looked at Chen Yijian, with a curious look in their eyes. But he didn't ask much, and after saying something to Chen Yijian to wait a while, he turned around and walked briskly towards the county office. After a while, he came back again and said politely to Chen Yijian: "Distinguished guest, please come with me!"

Chen Yijian nodded with a smile and walked inside behind the officer.

Through the hall around the screen, to the door of the back hall. The official who was walking in front stopped, turned around and said to Chen Yijian, after Xianzun and Lord Huang were inside, he walked straight outside and walked quickly. Obviously, the official had waited for some orders. Otherwise, I wouldn't have left without even reporting to the house.

In this regard, Chen Yijian didn't feel anything. After the official left, he stepped into the back hall.

Huang Ye, who is the magistrate of the town, is wearing a blue-brown official uniform and a tall black black sand hat at this time. Sitting at a table in the hall with a smile on his face, while eating a simple breakfast on the table, he looked at the young Taoist priest opposite, chatting without a word.

And the young Taoist priest also had a smile on his face. When he saw Chen Yijian walking in, the young Taoist priest immediately stood up from the stool. took the lead and said to Chen Yijian: "Brother, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”

Chen Yijian casually put the big ding on his shoulder aside and sat down on a round stool. Said, "How did you get here?"

The young Taoist priest with a sallow face saw Chen Yijian sit down. He also sat back on the round bench and said, "It's not that you don't know the situation at home, but if you practice some bells and whistles, you have to go down the mountain to practice." I don't think it's really boring for Dongsheng Shenzhou, so I came here. Oh yes, I heard over there that you had a conflict with the Zhao family? and ......"

Speaking of this, the young Taoist priest couldn't help but stop talking. Looking at Chen Yijian, who had already eaten breakfast very unceremoniously on the side, the young man pondered the wording in his heart. Only then did he continue: "Was punched by Emperor Zhao De?"

Chen Yijian almost didn't choke on a mouthful of white porridge, and raised his head to look at the young man's sallow face. He said very unhappily: "If you can't chat, don't talk nonsense, what do you mean that I was punched......? Forget it, I told you that you didn't understand. Tell me why you came to Fukuzawa Town. ”

The young Taoist priest was a little embarrassed on his face, and reached out to scratch the back of his head. said: "I met an old man on the road before, and he told me that there were monsters here, so I came." ”

Chen Yijian was stunned for a moment, and said suspiciously: "Old man?"

The young Taoist priest nodded: "I don't know the name, he didn't say it." But looking at his cultivation, he should be in the upper six realms, at least above the thirteenth floor. ”

Chen Yijian was stunned again.

Why did you run out of the Six Realms again, what the hell is going on during this time.

"Do you remember what it looked like?"

The young Taoist priest replied, "He looks very ordinary, but there is a very strange aura on his body. Sometimes upright, sometimes feminine, which makes people a little incomprehensible. ”

After listening to the words of the young Taoist priest, Chen Yijian was already sure in his heart. That old man was not Mr. Chen, because Mr. Chen did not have such an aura at all. After many contacts, Chen Yijian is still very clear about the breath on Mr. Chen's body.

In addition to the majestic momentum of a scholar, the old man only has a breath similar to the spring breeze, which can make people feel comfortable physically and mentally.

Looking at the confusion on the young Taoist priest's face, Chen Yijian asked, "What did he tell you?"

The young Taoist priest thought about it for a moment and said, "He said that if I go in this direction, there will definitely be an accident." ”

Chen Yijian was stunned: "Then you came?"

The young Taoist priest nodded: "That's right!"

Chen Yijian was a little helpless: "Master Zhang, why are you so good at talking." He called you to come, and you came?"

The young Taoist priest smiled and scratched his head, and said, "Anyway, it's all about subduing demons and eliminating demons, so it's not the same where you go." ”

Chen Yijian smiled and no longer paid attention to the young Taoist.

As for Huang Ye, who couldn't interject from beginning to end. Always with a bright smile on his face, he looked at the young Taoist priest opposite for a while, and then looked at the young man in white. Finally, he looked at the bronze tripod that the young man put on the ground, and asked with some curiosity: "This son, presumably you are also a cultivator?"

Chen Yijian nodded, did not speak, and still buried his head in eating breakfast on the table.

After Huang Ye sighed, he stopped talking.

But in his heart, he thought, "In the face of the legendary gods, maybe a monk can't help him." But now there is another young monk, just by his line. When you go out and carry such a big bronze tripod, you know that your strength will definitely not be bad. Now, it's safe. ”

I thought that as long as it was past noon today, I really didn't have to worry about this matter anymore. Huang Ye couldn't help but be happy in his heart, and even ate a simple breakfast, which was like eating delicacies from the mountains and seas.

Not to mention how happy it was.
