Chapter 279 Knowing People and Knowing Faces
What is he afraid of?
Tong Rui was stunned in his heart, but he glanced at his grandson on his face, "I have old arms and legs, I may not have a few years to live, what do you say I'm afraid of?"
Speaking of this, Tong Rui sighed, and his tone softened a little.
"Our shaman is too radical, I am afraid that she will offend people without knowing it, and I am afraid that you will be let down by giving a brave and loyal heart, and I am even more afraid that you will be like your Amma, calling me a white-haired person to send a black-haired person. β
Tong Jianye listened to his grandfather's soft words for the first time, and he was still a little uncomfortable, rubbing his hands and saying: "Master, you know me, I have been very envious of you and Alin Mafa since I was a child, and I swore that when I grow up, I will be like you, and I will do my best for Changbai Village."
It's a pity that with the death of Aunt Gilta and Amma, the situation outside is getting more and more serious, and the powerful Alin Mafa has to let everyone retire and keep a low profile.
And I, even if I become a clerk, am just a farmer. But now, the shaman has given me a stage where I can use my strengths.
As the saying goes, a scholar dies for a confidant, and loyalty and filial piety cannot be both......"
Tong Jianye looked at his father's face while saying it, and saw that although his father's face remained unchanged, his eyes narrowed, and he looked at the crutches on the side of the kang, and he quickly jumped to the side, two meters away.
"Don't be angry, don't do it, I haven't finished yet!"
Tong Rui was amused by his grandson, "Okay, you say, if you don't name a flower today, I will beat you to death first, and you will be angry with me first." β
Tong Jianye was a little aggrieved, and muttered: "If you can't say it, just do it, I'm so old, my son is about to marry a daughter-in-law, can you save me some face!"
"What the hell are you doing?"
Seeing that his old man squinted his eyes again, Tong Jianye hurriedly said: "Master, I don't want to die, Yun Shu, well, the shaman will not let me die." β
As he spoke, he pulled out a black rope from the collar of his clothes, on which hung a one-inch-sized turtle shell, and the turtle shell shimmered with mysterious patterns.
Tong Rui, as Jin Alin's henchman, is naturally a little knowledgeable.
"Is this a talisman?"
Tong Jianye shook his head and began to babble again, "You keep guessing, be bold, no one will know if you guess wrong, and I won't laugh at you." β
Tong Rui felt for the first time that his grandson was not only undersmoked but also naΓ―ve, but how could the little house sparrow not be able to fight the old thief.
Tong Rui has a wine glass in one hand, a dry smoking gun in the other, a sip of wine, a puff of cigarettes, and a spicy rabbit diced from time to time, and occasionally pinches a few fried peanuts, just feel that it is good to be alive.
Tong Jianye was dumbfounded when he saw his father's posture of "you like to talk about it, don't talk about pulling it down".
"Master, don't play like this, what's wrong with satisfying your grandson's vanity! I've been aggrieved for years. β
This tone is aggrieved, don't look at his old squirming appearance, he should be three years old!
But don't say it, it works, at least Tong Rui broke his work instantly, and the puff of dry smoke he inhaled almost didn't come out of his ears, and he choked on tears.
When Tong Jianye patted his grandfather's back and followed his chest, he finally got his breath, the grandfather and grandson were both sweating, and when the two of them poured a sip of wine, they laughed when they met.
Tong Jianye poured another glass of wine for his grandfather, "You are a little smiling, and it is not in vain that your grandson risked being smoked to entertain his relatives in colorful clothes." β
After the grandfather and grandson sat cross-legged across the kang table, Tong Jianye threw the turtle shell pendant around his neck onto the kang, only to see that the turtle shell fell to the ground and became bigger and bigger.
When the turtle shell became as big as the lid of the cauldron [the cauldron used in the rural earthen stove], the arms, legs, and head stretched out from the bottom, and the whole body became a living person.
And when this "person" who seemed to be a turtle became a spirit, put a hat that appeared out of thin air on his right hand on his head, and then he hugged his fist at Tong Jianye and said: "Your majesty, the shield guard, is ordered to protect the foreign deacon." β
And Tong Rui was stunned and felt incredulous at the same time, and subconsciously looked at the feet of this "person", and sure enough, it was also a foot off the ground.
"This, this, this ......"
When did the guards become so common?
You must know that he has followed Lord Alin all his life, but he doesn't have this treatment, it's not that Jin Alin is reluctant, but it's that the refining of the guards is really difficult (Chapter 187).
Although she knows that this shaman has an extraordinary background, the strength she shows can always refresh everyone's conjecture about her countless times.
If Jin Alin didn't leave her any backhand, whether it was a spirit servant or a guard, she had refined it herself in such a short period of time, then her strength would definitely exceed everyone's imagination.
Tong Jianye knew that it was impossible to be calm when he saw this master, so he said beautifully: "Master, don't worry." The shaman is very protective of the people who approve. β
Looking at his grandson's expression, Tong Rui knew that he was completely subdued by the "young" shaman.
"Go to the army to fight and strategize, and attack the heart first. β
I have to say that this shaman is not only super strong in force, but also not lagging behind in strategy, especially the means of his majesty, he is really willing to put down his roots.
Tong Rui didn't pay attention to his grandson, but looked at the retreat guard floating next to him, and said politely: "I don't know what Your Excellency says?"
Tong Rui has naturally seen the guards, and naturally knows that they are intelligent, but at first it looks like a blank piece of paper, and it also takes time to paint a brush on it.
For example, at this moment, this shield guard, although it is so close, is covered by the hat, and he can't see his face clearly, but it doesn't prevent Tong Rui from feeling his rigidity, which is obviously that he has just been "born" and will only act according to orders.
Still, he made a mistake.
Since he knew that Dunbei had just been "born", just like a blank piece of paper, his questions should be simpler and more straightforward, otherwise he would not be like this, and after waiting for a long time, the Dunbei on the opposite side did not speak, and the atmosphere was suddenly embarrassing.
Tong Jianye pinched his thigh, grinning in pain, so he couldn't help laughing, and then coughed.
"Master, the shaman said, although Dun Shi is very capable, but his wisdom is not high, he probably can't understand what you say, and he has to teach it slowly. β
Tong Rui was speechless for a while.
And when Dun Shi heard Tong Jianye mention his name, he looked at Tong Jianye, as if waiting for his orders.
"What the shaman means is that this shield guard will follow me in the future, and how to train it, naturally I have the final say. But I'm also a mess now, and I'm thinking......"
Tong Jianye rubbed his hands when he said this, and looked at his grandfather with a flattering face, "Master, you have to help me!"
Tong Rui had some thoughts in his heart, although he was afraid that this guard was actually double-faced, but if he said no, let alone that the shaman couldn't pass the pass, even his own grandson would definitely not understand.
After all, what an honor and trust it is to be able to get the guards given by the shaman himself, and to be able to train them to be what they want.
It's time to make a decision!
Tong Rui stood up, looked at his grandson, and said solemnly: "I'm going to see the shaman, you don't have to come with me." β
Tong Jianye seemed to be a little confused, "Master, you can't say anything tomorrow." Besides, I heard Gao Zhengbin say that the shaman has a guest tonight, and I am afraid that he will not have time to entertain you. β
Tong Rui, who was getting off the kang and putting on his shoes, paused, "What guest? Why haven't I heard that someone came to visit at night?"
First, there were people who gave the shaman all kinds of food at any time, and now there are guests coming to the moon.
And all this, he didn't even know!
Tong Rui slowly exhaled, put his shoes on the kang and took a sip of wine, "Bakshi, do you say grandpa is really old?"
Tong Jianye lowered his head, his eyes were a little dark, but in the blink of an eye, his expression changed to a hippie smile.
"Not old, not old, where is the old man. I'm forty years old, but you're still the same as when your grandson was born......! Wow, sir, what have you eaten? You're younger than you were then. β
Tong Rui was shocked, stared at his grandson, and saw his hippie smiling face, so he relieved his heart and scolded with a smile: "What can I eat? If it weren't for my granddaughter-in-law, I wouldn't even be able to eat meat." β
"Master, look at what you said. If you don't have a grandson, where did you come from? Wow, be merciful, shield ten, help. β
Although the ancestors and grandchildren are not the material for martial arts, they grabbed the plate of spicy rabbit and saw the chopsticks flying, but they could also see some skills.
Qi Fengling, also known as Ge Ludai, listened to the movement in the study compartment, smiled, turned around and went to the kitchen to cook a pot of hangover soup.
And the night is getting deeper, the moon has reached the treetops, the red lantern at the entrance of the village is swaying with the night wind, and the guests of Yunshu have entered Changbai Village at this time.
