Chapter 724: Hot Pot Dinner (Finale)

Previous Chapter

On the same day, after Nangong Chi and the others left, in order to celebrate the reunion of their master and apprentice, Shan Xue asked Shanhe to take some stoves and ingredients from the canteen and come back, planning to make a hot pot in the evening, and everyone enjoyed it.

Retrieving the ingredients, the mountains and rivers and the mountain snow kept washing in front of the pool, and the mountain peaks crossed Erlang's legs and looked at the two apprentices with a smile.

Although he didn't say anything, he was very satisfied to see this heartwarming scene again after 16 years, and he inadvertently shed two tears......

It didn't take long for Shan Xue to open his mouth and ask while washing vegetables:

"By the way, Shanhe, to be honest with my senior sister, are you going to recognize Nangong Chi as your father?"

Hearing Shan Xue suddenly ask about this, the mountain peaks on the side also pricked up their ears.

"This, this...... I don't know. I have no father or mother since I was a child, and I relied on my master and you to bring me up. Now suddenly let me call him dad, it's really a little uncomfortable. ”

Hearing this, before Shanxue could speak, he heard the mountain peak on the side suddenly preemptively say:

"It's okay! Don't call him if you're not used to it, he Nangong Chi hasn't raised you for a day, why should he pick up a cheap son as soon as he comes up! If you want me to say, it's okay if you don't recognize him!"

From Shanfeng's words, Shanxue seemed to smell a "vinegar smell", but she didn't say it, but patted Shanhe on the shoulder and said:

"Hehe, if you want my sister to say, let's let this matter be. In fact, it's not just you, Nangong Boss and Nangong Qing also need a while to get used to this matter. But I believe that there will be a happy ending in the near future. ”

After saying this, he saw Shan Xue turn his head to look at the mountain peak and said:

"Master, before leaving in the morning, the head of Nangong invited us to live in the pie in the future, and you didn't reply at the time, don't you plan to stay?"

Hearing the senior sister ask about this, Shanhe, who was washing vegetables, immediately frowned, and his face also showed nervousness.

To tell the truth, he has lived in Nangongmen for six years, and now he is really reluctant to leave.

And this morning, Nangong Chi also said very clearly, hoping that all three of them would stay in the faction.

It also means that Nangong Chi is not to blame for the previous things, and Shanhe is of course willing to stay.

But Shanfeng didn't agree on the spot, and only replied "think about it", which made Shanhe uneasy.

It wasn't until this moment that I was finally asked by my senior sister.

"Hmph! What's so good about Nangong Gate? I get angry when I see Nangong Chi! Whoever wants to stay, I won't stay anyway. Shanfeng replied with a disdainful face.

"Oh, so you don't want to stay......"

Hearing this, Shan Xue nodded with regret on her face, but soon asked again:

"Then what if both me and Shanhe want to stay?"

"Ahh

"That's right! My brother and I ...... I love this place and am reluctant to go. Shan Xue smiled and replied:

"Although I have been locked up for six years, the people here feel good after contact, and I don't mind staying. As for the junior brother, hehe, he is very popular here! In addition, he now has a seventh-level cultivation of the cadre rank, and he has his own Nangong bloodline, and he is the next head of Nangong. With such a good prospect, are you willing to let the mountains and rivers go?"

Although Shanfeng was rescued not long ago, in the past three days, he also had a rough understanding of the condition of the two disciples, and knew that what Shanxue said was true. But he still refused to admit it, and opened his mouth to retort:

"So what? With Xiaoshan's current ability, let alone Nangong Gate, even the top-ranked Shushan faction has to respect him as a guest. Why do we have to stay in this small Nangong Gate, and make Nangong Chi cheaper? No, no, I don't agree!"

Seeing that the master still refused to agree, Shan Xue could only persuade again:

"Master, can't you just sacrifice for us once? Didn't the head of Nangong admit his mistake today? Why do you still bother with him? Xiaoshan ...... He really likes it here, and the people he likes are here, so do you have to break them up?"

Hearing Shan Xue say this, Shan Feng sighed, and he couldn't help but think of Nangong Chi and Xiaowan back then.

He himself hated this kind of behavior of beating mandarin ducks very much, and now he can't bear to do it to his apprentices. After hesitating for a moment, he finally made a concession:

"Alright, alright, then...... Let's stay for a while. ”

Hearing that the master actually agreed to this, without waiting for Shanxue to speak, Shanhe, who was listening to the side, instantly knelt down and said with gratitude:

"Thank you, Master, thank you, Master, Disciple, Disciple......"

"Alas, get up. It's all seven floors, how can you still be like a child......"

As he spoke, he saw Shanfeng help Shanhe up from the ground, and his face showed a rare look of relief, patting Shanhe's shoulder and saying earnestly:

"You can't just kneel in the future. You're a big guy now, hehe, master...... I'm so proud of you!"

Shanhe, who has been scolded since he was a child, was really flattered by the master's praise like this, and almost cried. I was about to say something, but I heard a sudden knock on the door behind me.

Knock knock knock......

"Oops! It should be the guest I invited has arrived, Shanhe, go and open the door. Shan Xue looked at the watch.

As soon as these words came out, Shanhe was confused, he didn't know that his senior sister had invited guests to the banquet, so he walked quickly to the door.

As soon as the door opened, I saw a familiar face standing outside the door.

"Bai, Bailu, are your injuries healed, why did you come out of Jishiin so quickly?"

The person standing outside the door was Bai Lu, who was injured by Han Yi three days ago. At the moment, her face was still slightly pale, but she had generally recovered her health.

"Oh, I'm almost fine. This time, it was really thanks to Elder Xiao that she activated the Healing Array in time to save me. Of course, I also want to thank you, I heard that it was you who defeated Han Yi and gave Elder Xiao the opportunity to send me to the Jishi Academy......"

"Uh, you, you don't have to thank me, you were injured to save me, I should thank you, hehe. Shanhe smirked while scratching his head.

"Shanhe, the guests have been here for a long time, why don't you invite them into the house?" Seeing that the two were talking at the door, Shanxue shouted by the pool.

Hearing her senior sister shouting like this, Shanhe came back to his senses and hurriedly brought Bai Lu into the house.

Seeing that Shan Xue was preparing a meal, Bai Lu first said hello to Shan Feng after entering the house, and then walked to the edge of the pool to pick up the ingredients with Shan Xue.

After his work was taken up by Bai Lu, Shanhe had no choice but to come to the table and sit with Shanfeng.

"Stinky boy, is she Bai Lu?" asked Shanfeng in a low voice after glancing at the woman who had just entered the house.

"Yes, it's her. ”

"Okay, it's much better looking than your mother, hehe, you kid is not shallow? You have to watch closely, don't lose it!"

After listening to the master's "advice", Shanhe immediately showed a wry smile, and just when he didn't know how to reply, he heard another knock on the door.

"Huh, are there any other people?"

"Well, it should also be the guest I invited, Shanhe go and open the door!"

Urged by the mountain snow, the mountains and rivers came to the door again.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw Qin Xiaodou, who was wearing pigtails, carrying two big bags and hurriedly walked in:

"I heard Sister Shanxue say that if you want to eat hot pot today, I specially got some vegetables and sliced meat! Hehe, Brother Shanhe, wait for enough for you to eat!"

After speaking, Qin Xiaodou walked inward unceremoniously as if he had arrived at his own home.

First greeted Shanfeng warmly, then walked quickly to the kitchen center, put down the bag and got busy.

During this period, of course, she saw Bai Lu who was helping on the side, and guessed that she should be a guest invited by Shanxue, so she didn't say anything more, smiled slightly, and picked up the ingredients in her hand by herself.

Seeing that another girl came, Shanfeng was slightly puzzled, and leaned into Shanhe's ear again:

"Who is this?"

"She, she's Qin Xiaodou......"

When I heard this name, I saw the mountain peak suddenly realized:

"Oh, she's Qin Xiaodou, the girl who accompanied you up the mountain with affection and righteousness? Hehe, yes, yes, not bad! Don't say it, you kid looks stupid, the woman is really much stronger than your master......"

As soon as these words came out, Shanhe once again showed an embarrassed smile.

After chatting with the master, it didn't take long for the water in the pot to boil and the ingredients to be prepared, so everyone gathered around the table and started today's banquet.

Since it was a family gathering, there was no particular seating.

Shanfeng and Shanxue sat on one side very consciously, while Bai Lu and Qin Xiaodou sat on the left and right of Shanhe respectively.

After a simple toast, everyone raised their chopsticks and prepared to start.

What is surprising is that the first people to move the chopsticks are Bai Lu and Qin Xiaodou who are sitting on both sides of the mountains and rivers!

I don't know why, as soon as the pot was opened, the two of them each took a large chopstick of food and put it into the pot.

I didn't even let go of my hands during the whole process, and when the food was just cooked, I quickly fished it out and rushed to put it into the plate of Shanhe.

"Brother Shanhe, let's eat some meat first. Hee-hee, on such a cold day, eat more meat to get warmer. ”

"Mountains and rivers, I think it's better to eat green vegetables first, which are rich in vitamins and trace elements, which are good for the body. ”

After listening to the different words on the left and right, the mountains and rivers sandwiched in the middle suddenly have a feeling of returning to six years ago!

A smile that seemed embarrassed but full of happiness also sneaked up on his face......

(Final)

On the last day of the 18th year, the bracelet carving was finally completed.

First of all, I would like to apologize to all of you.

Although this book is over, there are still many holes that have not been filled, and many things have not had time to be explained. I hope you all Haihan.

Second, I would like to express my gratitude to all those who have read this book. Thank you for your support and help in the past 400 days.

Although the words are vulgar, the heart is sincere: without your support, Shanhe and I may not be able to persevere.

So, thanks again!

Finally, I wish you all a happy and healthy new year!

See you in the next book!
