Chapter 335: A Void
I was very excited to return to Zizhou Peak again, and even had a feeling of returning to my hometown after many years of absence, probably because we had stayed in Zizhou Peak for too long, and subconsciously regarded this place as half of our home. Now that we have gathered the Zhenshan Lingcao of Sanfeng, the day of the real return home is finally close at hand, and Lao Jia and I can't help but be very excited.
Lao Yu and I didn't care if there were any clothes on our bodies, so we rushed directly into the courtyard, and as soon as we walked into the hall, we saw a familiar figure. Dressed in a blue-green plain suit, with two small buns combed on his head, anyone who sees it will think of Nezha, who is sweeping the dust with a feather duster in his hand at this time.
"Girl!" the old man called out to the girl excitedly.
The girl was also very happy when she looked back at us, and hurriedly ran over and asked, "You're back! It's been a month, and I'm worried that you won't be able to come back!"
"You don't see who we are, can you come back? can you still leave us with those two jujubes?" Old Yu began to pout his mouth and blow the cowhide again, with a smug face, this is a typical good scar and forget the pain.
I was also very happy to see the girl again, and nodded to the girl with a busy smile. Laughing and laughing, there was a gurgling sound in my stomach, and I smiled bitterly at the girl and said, "Girl, do you have anything to eat?"
"Yes, yes, yes, do you have something to eat? the more the better!" Eating is the first major event in life for Lao Zhi, at this time I suddenly found that I was still hungry, and then I looked at the girl's eyes were hot, it seemed that the girl was a steaming bun, and almost swallowed the girl into her stomach in its original form.
The girl had an arrogant expression on her face, her hands on her hips, and she looked at me and Lao Yu who were extremely embarrassed and said, "Master asked me to make more steamed buns today, and there are a lot left, so let's give it to you!"
"Okay, where are you?" the old man was about to slip out of tears when he heard it, and his hands trembled and he was about to follow the girl to where to make steamed buns.
The girl also saw that we were really hungry and not like people, but like two goblins who eat people, how could a big living person be starved like this, and she also had some sympathy in her heart, and said "Let's go", and took us to the kitchen.
Before the girl pushed the door, the old man shot in with a good walk, which scared the girl. When I saw Lao Zhi again, I found that Lao Zhi had squatted on the stove, put his hands together, and the girl who looked at it was stunned, this speed was simply too fast, and I was just about to turn around and ask me, and found that I also turned into an afterimage and flew on the stove, and the girl was stunned again. Isn't this just two pig demons, they didn't want to die when they saw the food, and they just wanted to scold me and Lao Yu for having no conscience, but then remembered what the master said to him in the morning, snorted angrily and walked out.
My old man and I had a good meal, and we bit our fingers several times, and I don't know how many steamed buns we ate, anyway, we choked to death. But looking at the speed of Lao Zhi, I did feel a burst of horror, two mouthfuls of fist-sized steamed buns, and then raised my head and quickly knocked on my chest a few times, and I saw a lump of flesh on my neck quickly slid into my stomach, and then quickly grabbed the next steamed bun.
I have doubted countless times that Lao Xiang in his previous life was Marshal Tianpeng's rice bucket, and he was accidentally knocked down in the mortal world to give the current Lao Zhi? No matter what is delicious or not delicious, even if it is a dead child's meat, he dares to taste it, others are full in a few bites, and Lao Zhi can eat a few more bites, which is really admirable to me for five bodies!
Simply and rudely solved all the things that could be eaten, and Lao poured a scoop of cold water at the end, burped and said: "It's good to have two more, it's a little unfed!"
"You haven't eaten enough, most of the steamed buns have been eaten by you, you haven't eaten enough?
"Hmph, don't talk to me, tell you the truth, if the pot could be eaten, I would have eaten it a long time ago, and I could keep it until now!"
I was just about to speak, when the girl walked in again, still holding two pieces of clothes in her hands, looked at me and Lao Yu with disgust in her eyes and said, "Look at the clothes of both of you are about to become fishing nets, hurry up and change them!"
Looking at me and Lao Qi again, it was a little miserable, Lao Gi's shirt had been torn by the Xuan Bee when he was in Huangzhoufeng, and only a pair of hanging leg pants with big holes and small eyes remained. And I'm not much better, although the shirt is still there, but a few long big mouths are all over the body, and the pants are all scratches, and then look closely at the spring leakage, no wonder the girl blushes.
Lao Jia and I hurriedly changed our clothes, and then washed our faces, preparing to meet the old lady of Zizhou, and strive to return to the world today!
When I returned to the living room again, I found that the old lady Zizhou was already sitting on the Taishi chair in the middle of the middle, and the girl was standing behind her, and when she saw us coming back, she smiled at us, and the old lady rolled her eyes at the girl, and sat on the chair on the side.
I saluted the old lady of Zizhou and said, "The younger generation has seen the old lady of Zizhou!"
The old lady Zizhou still had the same expression as a month ago, with a strange expression, a clear and tall appearance that does not eat the fireworks of the world, looked me up and down and did not speak.
If she didn't speak, I had to say, I couldn't just stare at it with big eyes, so she said to the old lady of Zizhou: "The one-year appointment has arrived, we have worked hard to get the dragon spirit child, the unicorn straw and the ice lotus, please let the old mother of Zizhou take a look." ”
After speaking, he glanced at Lao Zhi, and Lao Zhi took out the spirit grass with a big mouth, and then said: "The things have been taken back, our previous account is settled, tell us how to leave Yingzhou!"
The old lady of Zizhou was silent, and with a wave of her sleeve robe, the dragon spirit son, the unicorn straw, and the ice lotus on the table disappeared in an instant: "That account can be settled." ”
I was also excited when I heard this, what does this mean, this means that she is going to say a way to leave Yingzhou, at this time, Lao Yu is also staring at a pair of small eyes and waiting for the old lady of Zizhou to say the following.
"How many days are there in a year?"
"Master, there are three hundred and sixty-five days in a year!" the girl said preemptively.
"And what day is today?"
"Hmm... The specific agreement is now exactly the 366th day!"
That means it's been more than a year's time. ”
Immediately, the old lady of Zizhou swept my eyes over me and Lao Zhi, and my heart tightened when I listened, what does the old lady of Zizhou mean by this? It is indeed beyond the appointment of a year, but it is only more than half a day, it is difficult... Thinking of this, a bad premonition flashed through my heart.
"What do you mean?" Lao Yu also felt that the old lady Zizhou was intent, sat up straight and asked.
"What do you mean? When you made a gentleman's agreement for one year, and you didn't complete the agreement within one year, then the gentleman's agreement will be invalidated, and for the sake of you getting back the spirit grass for me as compensation, then I won't do much to investigate. Leave my Zizhou Peak, and never owe each other anything, if you come back to harm my purity, don't blame my subordinates for being ruthless!"
"Wait!" Seeing that things had changed, my heart was almost broken, and I had worked hard for us for a year, carrying water and cooking, watching the yard and stealing spiritual grass, and almost finished all the dirty and tiring work of this life, and in the end it was only because we were half a day late that they had to drive us away?
Suddenly, boundless tension and anger arose in my heart: "Zizhou Mother, you listen to my explanation, we have gone through a lot of hardships in the past month, and we are in danger everywhere, so we can get the spirit grass as compensation, and the suffering we have suffered is indescribable in words. We admit that we are half a day late, but we swear that we have done our best, and please tell us how to return to the world for the sake of our sincerity. There are still burial dragon pits in the world that we need to protect, and there are elderly grandfathers, they can't live without us, please be merciful and tell us the way to return to the world, the younger generation is grateful!"
After speaking, I bowed to the end, and I kept praying in my heart, hoping that the old lady Zizhou would be merciful, please, please...
"Isn't it just half a day? Is that still late, do you know that we almost died in Huangzhou Peak in order to find you some Broken Spirit Grass, do you know how much we have suffered, in the past year and a half, we have been your grandson every day, and it is okay to speak of conscience, right? Killing people is not enough, old lady, what do you still want!"
"Lao Zhi!" I hurriedly stopped Lao Zhi, and now it is useless to say anything else, because we have breached the contract first, and once we provoke the old lady of Zizhou, we will not tell us the way to leave Yingzhou. Seeing that my eyes were red, Lao Qi snorted angrily and stopped talking.
"I beg the old mother of Zizhou to be merciful, Hu gave him no offense, and asked the old mother of Zizhou to have a large amount of money, and not to worry about the younger generations!"
The old lady Zizhou sneered and said: "It's too late, what reason do you have to say? I never forced you to do anything, but you yourself are willing to do it, and now not only do you break the appointment, but you also blame everything on my head, think about what you have done before complaining about others! Hmph!"
"Zizhou Mother!"
"Old lady Zizhou!"
"Girl, if you don't send off guests, you will definitely die if you bother again!"
