Volume 1: "Numerology is Hard to Say" Chapter 14: Homecoming

···

Time has passed, and half a month has passed since the ant ink hatched...

And Honglie, he was also summoned by his master, 'Zheng Widow Yu' today, and came to the Qingyu Hall...

"Master, you summoned the apprentices to me today, dare to ask, but what's the matter?"

He looked at Zheng Yuyu respectfully, and said with a fist.

···“ Now, it's almost the first month, and you two brothers...

It's time for someone to go back. ”

Honglie nodded, according to the rules of the mountain gate, the disciples of the mountain gate cannot go up and down the mountain casually.

And then there is a year, in three days, let the disciples go down the mountain and return to their hometowns, most of them, also around the New Year, go home to reunite the year.

And if... This is also similar to the words of Honglie, and Honglangyong, a disciple who has multiple brothers within a sect. In the Wangxian Sect, it is stipulated that only one person can return to his hometown every year.

It's just that... This time, Honglie felt that Zheng Yuyu's summoning was too abrupt.

After all, there are still twenty-one days before the first day of the first lunar month, and if Honglie returns to his hometown, he will only be on horseback for a two-day journey at most.

“··· This time, on the first day of the first lunar month, I need to gather all the disciples in the mountain gate for some things.

So, go back a few days in advance. ”

He touched his white beard, closed his eyes, and said calmly.

And Honglie is also about to leave after answering the order.

···“ Before, I dyed that girl..."

Just as Honglie was about to leave the Qingyu Gate, Zheng Xiaoyu's old voice also sounded.

Honglie turned his head, and he smiled wryly, not knowing what to say.

Since the last time I came back from collecting medicine, in order to make her happy, Honglie took her out to play three times in just two months...

And that's just the number of times Honglie shirked it a few times...

···“ I think if I just let you go home alone.

Presumably, that girl will run out secretly again because she can't bear to be lonely.

So... This time, you will take her to your hometown and have a good time. ”

"What, what?"

For a while, Honglie Yu was a little stunned and said in surprise.

"Why, this decision. Are you not satisfied?"

··· After another half-ring, Honglie reacted, and Yu responded:

"No, it's just... I was just a little surprised. ”

··· He walked out of the main hall and looked at the blue sky, where frost and snowflakes were slowly falling.

He smiled wryly, and then went to Piaoran's abode.

Unlike most of the disciples, it is not a broken earth tile house, but a beautiful Qiongge Jade Tower.

Honglie Yu knocked lightly on the red lacquer door, and after about a cup of tea, Piao Ran walked out holding the ant ink.

"Ah, it's Honglie, what's wrong?"

Honglie first glanced at the ant ink in Piaoran's arms in a complicated mood, although nominally, the ant ink is her spirit animal, but most of the time... It is raised by drifting dye.

“··· Let's go in first. ”

···“ What, what?

Daddy, he told me to go back to your hometown with you?"

When Piao Ran said this, Yu suddenly turned red, and the two white lotus root arms holding ant ink couldn't help but clamp up.

Caused a pitiful whine.

"I'm sorry, little ant, you hurt just now. ”

After speaking, she touched Ant Mo's little head and said comfortingly.

···“ Actually, at the time, I didn't believe it. ”

He smiled bitterly, just as he was frightened by his words, and he didn't believe his master's words at that time.

"Hey, you kid, you're not going to lie to this girl, are you?"

"Do I dare?"

Honglie shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly.

When the words fell, the two of them also fell silent with each other.

After I don't know how long it has been, Piao Ran blushed and said slowly:

···

"Well, it's not impossible..."

··· A few days later, Honglie and Piao Ran descended the mountain, rented two horses in the villages near Tianyu Mountain, and then rode south towards the Tianding Plain...

It was a small mountain village that was not very large, and it seemed that there were at least about a thousand people living there.

But at noon, there was a scene of traffic. Just at the gate of the villa, the two of them could see that from time to time, there would be this merchant's vehicle, carrying goods back and forth.

"It's a big change. ”

He said to himself in his heart.

A long time ago, in Yu Honglie's memory, this mountain village was even a poor village that was very difficult to eat.

And in that year, his elder brother, after worshipping the mountain gate, they were in the grand family, and they received a lot of monetary rewards.

It also made its mountain village renamed 'Hongjia Village' since then.

···“ Is this your hometown?

Compared to Tianshan City, this place is really much more dilapidated. ”

Just when Honglie was thinking thousands of things in his heart, Piao Dye was unintentional or unintentional, and a stream of cold water poured on his heart.

···“ Generally speaking, villages can't be compared to big cities, right?"

He smiled wryly a few times and explained.

"Really?

Forget it, it doesn't matter what, where is your home?

I'm tired all the way.

Hurry up to your house, prepare some tea and snacks, and let me rest. ”

The two walked side by side, and their ant ink also blinked with big eyes, looking around curiously, all these new things.

It didn't take long for the two of them to come to a mud compound.

And along the way, Honglie also received a lot of welcome from the villagers, and some children shouted, asking whether Honglie had become the legendary 'immortal'.

"Knock knock knock ———"

Honglie knocked a few times to make a wooden door with a trace of loess, although it is certainly not as prosperous and tidy as in the Wangxian Sect, but... This is his hometown...

"Yes, there are still stone lions at your doorstep, not as miserable as I thought. ”

Piao Dye on his side, holding ant ink, regardless of whether he is happy or not. A few ant feet that have been using ant ink have been rubbing and playing with the forehead of the stone lion statue.
