Half a ring, the idle noise stopped for a while, and outside the house, suddenly, it seemed that someone was calling again.

Liu Yue and Zhou Jiujian are both cultivators, and in terms of eyesight and ear power alone, they must be much better than ordinary people.

I vaguely heard it, but it was the word "Xuanyuan Hong" that was calling.

Zhou Jiujian looked at Lao Hong and said, "Uncle Xuanyuan, it seems that someone outside is calling your name." ”

When Lao Hong heard this, he wondered, "Is there something?"

Zhou Jiujian immediately replied: "It's true that someone is calling you, you listen carefully, otherwise let's just go out and have a look?"

Lao Hong looked at the young man with a suspicious expression, and there seemed to be some disbelief in his eyes, but he still calmed down and listened attentively.

Listen carefully, but there is really a voice, from the outside, along the courtyard wall, across the hall door, fluttering, into Lao Hong's ears.

It's really his name.

Lao Hong frowned, inside and outside the house, across the courtyard wall, the voice that had been calling his name was not too high, and for a while I really couldn't figure out whose voice it was, but it was extremely familiar, neighbors, afraid that there was something to find him.

Lao Hong hurriedly walked out, and Zhou Jiujian and Liu Yue also followed.

Walking through the main hall, and bypassing the Xinxue ancient well, the voice of the call outside the door can be heard clearly, open the door, and see, it turned out to be a middle-aged woman wearing a coarse linen cotton coat, carrying a vegetable basket, walking back and forth outside the door, and looking at the door from time to time. Looking at its appearance, although it is not young, there are several deep wrinkles between the corners of the eyes, but it is still charming, and it can't hide a bit of posture.

Seeing Lao Hong open the door, her eyes immediately lit up a little, and she hurriedly stepped forward, grabbed Lao Hong's left sleeve, and said anxiously: "Hey, Xuanyuan Hong, I didn't find you in your store just now, and when I asked others, I said that you closed the stall early, and there was no one in your house, so I thought, you must have come here, sure enough, hurry, hurry up and go with me, it's not good!"

Lao Hong fixed his eyes and found that the woman turned out to be Aunt Ma from the house next door, no wonder the voice felt so familiar at first hearing.

Lao Hong has a lot of help to this neighbor Ma Da Niang during the day, and her husband died early, and raised a pair of children, this orphan and widow, it is really not easy, according to Lao Hong's heart, naturally it is to help a little more, gradually, this Ma Da Niang's family is dependent on him, big and small, all come to Lao Hong for help.

Speaking of which, this is also a normal and extremely benevolent act, but in the eyes of those who have a heart, the meaning has become a little unclear.

Is it as simple as just helping? I'm afraid not, this widow is stealing men.

In the final analysis, this Aunt Ma is a widow after all, and she is not ugly, and she can even be said to be a little good-looking, and Lao Hong happens to be still playing single, in her thirties, but she doesn't even have a wife and a concubine, which will inevitably make people suspicious.

Naturally, there will be people secretly talking behind his back, saying that Lao Hong is "eating the marrow and knowing the taste", and he will go to Ma's house twice in three days, I am afraid that the threshold will have to step on him a few inches. Some people say that Aunt Ma can't bear the loneliness, and takes the initiative to hook up with Lao Hong, she is at this age, and it is the year of the tiger and wolf, her husband is dead, and she is alone in the empty room, looking at Lao Hong such a strong man, how can she bear it, in this world, how can there be cats who don't steal?

But after all, there are many rights and wrongs in front of the widow's door.

No one has ever thought about the bright side.

However, this is just the gossip of those narrow-minded people, Lao Hong has heard some of them, but he doesn't care very much, and he goes with them, but it's just some nonsense that has nothing to do.

How should it be or what, still go to Ma Da Niang's house from time to time, and still do big and small things together, which is a little admirable.

Today, I don't know what happened to make this Aunt Ma come to him in such a hurry, and even just saw it, and before she could say more, she wanted to pull Lao Hong away.

"Eh, Sister Ma, don't worry, don't worry, you wait a minute, let's make things clear for the time being, what happened, why are you in such a hurry?" Lao Hong saw that she was pulling his sleeve, and was about to take him away, and hurriedly said.

The horse lady quickly stopped, but did not put down his sleeves, and said very quickly: "It's my old sow, this is not after breeding with your boar, I have been pregnant for a long time, I didn't expect this child to start giving birth, the first piglet is safe and sound, but when the second child is born, it can't come out, this has been born for a long time, I look at the old sow is almost boring, if it drags on again, it will die! I really can't do it, so I have to come to you for help." ”

When Lao Hong heard her say this, he knew the ins and outs. This old sow giving birth is indeed a big thing for them. This every pig, but is a lot of silver, gold is expensive, if you accidentally die, and then sell it to the butcher butcher, the price of the dead pig is not as good as the pig, it will inevitably have to be greatly discounted, if it is ten taels of silver, you can get a five or six taels, even if it is good, it is not sloppy at all.

There was no time to say more, after Lao Hong and Zhou Jiujian said hello, they went to get the previous things, and followed the Ma lady to leave quickly.

The boy and the girl stood opposite each other on both sides of the wooden door, looking at the figures of Lao Hong and Aunt Ma, and disappeared at the mouth of the alley.

After watching Lao Hong leave, Liu Yuecai suddenly asked Zhou Jiujian, "Jiujian, how did you and him meet?"

"He?" Zhou Jiujian looked at Liu Yue and smiled, "Are you talking about Uncle Xuanyuan?"

The girl nodded.

"Actually, it's really just eating tofu boiled, and after eating a lot, you will become acquainted, what's wrong?" the young man said strangely.

"The surname Xuanyuan, do you know what it means in this Daze?" the girl said.

Zhou Jiujian naturally didn't understand.

Liu Yue then told the origin of the Xuanyuan family, as well as the ups and downs of the Qinglong Dynasty, and many things.

Zhou Jiujian was shocked when he heard this.

"However, as far as Uncle Xuanyuan is the owner of a small food shop, he hasn't even invited a junior, do you think it will be the son of the Xuanyuan clan? Besides, didn't you say that they have all disappeared for hundreds of years......" Zhou Jiu said with a sword.

"I can't afford to hire Xiaoer, but I can buy this house. The Xuanyuan clan just disappeared, but they didn't perish. Liu Yue replied.

When Zhou Jiujian heard this, he was suddenly a little dumbfounded, the two points that the girl said were very reasonable.

"However, even if this is the case, whether Uncle Xuanyuan is from the Xuanyuan clan or not, then it doesn't have much to do with us. Zhou Jiujian said again.

Liu Yue thought quietly for a while and said, "Yes, no." ”

Zhou Jiujian was a little speechless, how could Liu Yue also learn the same as the predecessors of the sword armor, and there was always something mysterious when talking about things. However, with the girl's words, he also pondered carefully in his heart, among the tens of thousands of lines, assuming that this Uncle Xuanyuan really came from an extraordinary background, and thought about it, perhaps, there will really be a lot of intersection in the future?

Let's hope that's a good thing.

......

After Lao Hong left, Zhou Jiujian and Liu Yue secretly guessed his true identity for a while, but although the relationship was acceptable, Zhou Jiujian still didn't know him well, so he couldn't get some useful results.

If there is no result left and right, it is better to simply give up, and there is no need to be blindly suspicious, otherwise those who have been so suspicious will always leave a gap in their hearts, which is not good after all.

Since it had been decided to wait until after tomorrow, and then continue to hurry, and at this time it was only past noon, and there was still half a day before it fell into the night, anyway, it was idle to be idle, so the young man proposed that it was better to go shopping on the street, and when the girl heard it, she also fulfilled her mind, and naturally nodded her head and promised.

After the two decided at the moment, they didn't linger longer, took the key, locked the door of the house, and walked side by side outside the alley.

In a small winter town, it is only after noon that it is warm.

On the street, there are not many pedestrians and vendors, three or three, three or two, naturally not how lively, but it also has a little popularity.

Zhou Jiujian and Liu Yue walked and stopped, mainly Liu Yue was watching, and then he was on the side.

The two walked all the way, looking at the few pedestrians on the road, the young man didn't know if he suddenly felt something, so he remembered that when he was still eating tofu and boiled tofu before, Lao Hong told them about the haunting of the white bamboo mountain in the south, and asked the girl: "By the way, do you think the haunted thing that Lao Hong said?"

The girl's eyes turned, her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and she said, "Maybe it's true." ”

Zhou Jiujian thought for a moment and said, "Do you also think that there is such a hanged ghost and water ghost in that mountain?"

Liu Yue shook her head and said, "Seeing is believing, hearing is false, if you haven't really seen it, it's not easy to draw conclusions." ”

Zhou Jiujian nodded approvingly: "As for that Taoist, I don't know if it's genuine......"

Both of them thought for a moment that when Lao Hong described the Taoist priest, he actually just did a ritual in the government office in the city, so they could know what kind of demon was doing evil...... Zhou Jiujian naturally believed in this matter, but on the premise of believing, it was necessary for this matter to take place in the West Polar Continent, where there were many gates and the Dao Sect incense was constantly inherited, but this was the East Lu Sword Continent!

Where did this Taoist priest come from, it really has to make people suspicious.

Zhou Jiujian and Liu Yue glanced at each other, and both of them could see what they were thinking from each other's eyes.

That Taoist priest is not a liar.

"Shall we go over there tomorrow, then?" the boy asked.

I have to say that he is still quite bold, he is just a swordsman, so he thinks about slaying demons and destroying demons.

Liu Yue nodded and responded.

After walking more than ten steps, there was a voice behind him, but it was full of energy.

"The first two, and go slowly!"

Zhou Jiujian was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously turned his head to look back.

I saw that there was an old Taoist priest standing behind him dressed in white, with fairy wind and bones, and frosty white sideburns.

I saw him holding a whisk in his left hand and a pole in his right hand, with seven big characters written on it: Mana is high and profound!

A stroke of wild grass, dragon flying phoenix dance!

It's unusual at first glance.
