Chapter 016 The long-lost warmth
A month ago, after Ji Xiaohan swallowed the demon heart chalcedony, his strength improved by leaps and bounds, and he broke through the level continuously. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info From that mysterious space, he found the exit to leave, just under the pool.
After coming out of there, Ji Xiaohan returned to the place where he had captured the demon heart chalcedony, and at this time, those beast kings had all left.
Ji Xiaohan pulled out the black knife from the grave, and after experimenting, he found that although the black knife was rusty all over, it kept splitting stones.
No matter how Ji Xiaohan got it, this black knife was never damaged, but the rust was worn off a lot.
A thousand years later, but it is still so hard, like a treasure sword.
"It's really worthy of the saber of a peerless swordsman from a thousand years ago. Ji Xiaohan was amazed and overjoyed.
He also liked to use knives, because he felt that knives were more direct, more domineering, and more suitable for him as an avenger than swords.
At the same time, the fire attribute internal force cultivated in "Flame Burning Energy" is also more suitable for using a knife, it is already matched with the knife technique "Phoenix Three Falls", but unfortunately, Ji Xiaohan did not get this heaven-level knife technique.
In the rivers and lakes, the quality of the internal strength determines the level to which the internal force can break through. From low to high, it is divided into mortal, human, earth, and heaven. Four levels.
The Heaven-level Mind Mahayana can allow the cultivation of internal force to break through to the realm of the Innate Grandmaster, and the Heaven-level Knife Technique, as the name suggests, is the natal sword technique left by the Innate Grandmaster, and only the Grandmaster realm can exert its complete power.
In the rivers and lakes, although strength cannot be determined by cultivation, cultivation is the most important factor affecting strength.
As the sun sets, Majiagou is peaceful and warm.
In front of one of the rooms, a man and a woman sat in a spacious courtyard chatting.
"Brother Xiaohu, why hasn't my father come back so late, the sun is about to set. The woman said.
"Acui, don't worry, every time my dad returns late, it means that today's harvest is very rich, and the trip is just delayed. The honest young man named Xiaohu said.
A fifteen or sixteen-year-old child ran out of the house and shouted to the two, "Brother, sister-in-law, my mother told you to go to dinner first"
Acui blushed a little and said to Huzi: "Brother Little Tiger, let's wait for my father a little longer, I'm not hungry now."
Xiaohu scratched his head and said with a smile: "Listen to you" After speaking, he said to the child: "Brother won't eat first, you and your mother will eat first"
The child pouted reluctantly when he heard this: "Mother said, I can't move before you move the chopsticks!"
Atsui and Huzi glanced at each other and smiled "haha".
Just about to say something, there was a sudden commotion outside the courtyard, and Huzi's eyes lit up, and he said, "It must be my father who is back!"
Not far from Xiaohu's house, Heizi led a group of people to their home, and the villagers couldn't help but be overjoyed when they saw that they were all dragging pheasants and hares and carrying wild boars and fat deer.
"Kuroko, there are so many fights today, it's enough to fight for several days!"
"Kuroko, this is a banquet for your Huzi, haha!"
"Kuroko, do you want to treat us to a drink, remember to take out your precious bottle of spirits"
However, when they looked at the eye-catching white tiger at the back of the line that was being carried by two people, they were all startled.
"Oh, that's great, it's a big bug. ”
"This big insect looks so scary, they can even kill this kind of evil beast, it's really getting more and more powerful."
"No, Kuroko is the most powerful man in our village."
"Eh, look, who is that kid in white?"
"Eh, yes, who is this kid? He also carries a black knife, it can't be that they picked it up."
......
Listening to the exclamations and praises and doubts of the villagers, Kuroko responded with a smile on the surface, but his heart was extremely bitter, he looked at Ji Xiaohan who was curiously looking at the village around him, and the shock in his heart has not subsided until now.
"What a little monster! This is the rumored warrior!"
Who would have thought that he almost died today, and who would have thought that this sixteen-year-old child, who seemed powerless, would actually take out this fierce beast with a single sword!
Kuroko smiled bitterly in his heart: "Picked it up?" hehe, it seems that the person who was picked up is me." ”
Not only Kuroko, but everyone who traveled with him thought so, and when Kuroko and Ji Xiaohan appeared in front of them at the same time, they were shocked for a long time.
Heizi suddenly waved his hand and shouted to everyone: "Folks, tonight, let's have a full feast, build a bonfire, kill chickens and sheep, eat meat and drink wine, celebrate, I hope the villagers will come!"
The villagers were very happy when they heard it and agreed one after another.
When Ji Xiaohan saw this scene, he felt a warmth in his heart, and at the same time he was a little disappointed. Because he thought of Xiaoning Village, once upon a time, it was also so warm.
Heizi noticed Ji Xiaohan's gloomy face, and stepped forward with some doubts: "What's wrong Shaoxia, isn't it, what's dissatisfied?"
Ji Xiaohan smiled at him embarrassedly and shook his head: "No, uncle, it's just that when I think of my home, I feel a little sad for a while." ”
"It turned out that I was homesick, you must have been away from home for a long time" Heizi patted Ji Xiaohan on the shoulder and said to him sincerely: "Don't be sad, if you want, in the future, this Majiagou will be your home, and you are welcome at any time!"
Ji Xiaohan's heart warmed: "Thank you, Uncle Heizi"
"Haha, what's polite between us, you saved your uncle's life"
At this time, Huzi also ran over with Atsui and his younger brother.
"Daddy, you're finally back"
"Haha, Huzi, Acui, Douzi, come here" Kuroko's eyes lit up, and then he beckoned to Huzi and the others.
Huzi and the others didn't know why, but they still walked over obediently.
"Come, I've seen this Ji Shaoxia"
"This ......" Huzi stared at him a little bewildered, not understanding what kind of nerves his father had. Ah Lian looked at Ji Xiaohan with a smile and asked, "Who is this little brother?"
"Nonsense!" this voice was said by Ah Gang on the side, "This young man saved our lives today!"
Huzi was shocked when he heard this, his father did still have uncleaned blood stains on his face. "Dad, what danger are you in here?"
Kuroko waved his hand impatiently: "Let's talk about these things later, first pick up the wind and wash the dust for our life-saving benefactor." ”
Huzi hurriedly hugged Ji Xiaohan: "Thank you for this young man!" Acui and Xiaodouzi also thanked Ji Xiaohan.
They saw the black knife behind Ji Xiaohan's back, and then thought of what their father said, and immediately understood that the young man in front of them was probably a martial artist who walked the rivers and lakes, and his expression was much more respectful.
Ordinary people always respect, fear, or envy these people who have extraordinary strength.
Ji Xiaohan was very embarrassed, this was the first time he had experienced this kind of battle, and hurriedly said to them: "You don't have to be too polite, this makes me a little unaccustomed, it's okay to call me Xiaohan."
"Okay young man!" Huzi nodded.
"Please, young man!" Kuroko said with a smile.
Ji Xiaohan: "......"
When the group left, the news spread ten, ten, ten, hundreds, and every household knew that the sunspot was going to set up a banquet tonight, and they all said that they would definitely go.
And under the nagging of his hunting companions, a young warrior came to the village, and killed the big insect with a knife, and the news that he saved Kuroko's life was also known by the villagers, and it became a topic of conversation for a while.
At Kuroko's house, Ji Xiaohan finally ate his first meal of rice since he came out of the mountain.
At the dinner table, Kuroko told Huzi and them all about today's events, and when they heard that he was almost killed in the tiger's mouth, the whole family turned pale. I can't help but thank Ji Xiaohan in every way.
Really, if Ji Xiaohan hadn't appeared in time, Kuroko would have really died, the day before his son's wedding.
"Haha, okay, don't talk about these things anymore, happy today, come, Huzi, toast Xiaohan with a bowl!" Heizi laughed and picked up a big bowl of wine, and said to Ji Xiaohan: "Xiaohan, this is a good wine that Uncle has treasured for many years, let's not get drunk today!"
"Xiao Han, I respect you too!" Huzi also picked up the bowl.
Ji Xiaohan smiled on his face, but in his heart he looked at the big bowl of spirits in his hand and smiled bitterly.
I have to say that this is the first time he has drunk alcohol, and he has never touched it before.
However, walking the rivers and lakes, how can you lack wine!
Ji Xiaohan touched the bowl with them, "It's done!" and then squinted his eyes and took a sip!
After drinking, Ji Xiaohan couldn't help but stick out his tongue and kept hauling: "Wow...... It's so spicy."
Seeing this, Heizi and Huzi were both stunned, and then looked at each other and smiled: "Haha, it seems that Xiaohan is drinking for the first time!"
Atsui covered her mouth and giggled, the woman smiled and shook her head helplessly, while Xiaodouzi was bored.
"Come again!" Ji Xiaohan said.
Laughter, clinking bowls, echoed in this cozy cottage.
After the meal, in order to buy a full banquet, the Heizi family was busy, moving all the things they needed back and forth to a spacious open space not far from home.
The so-called all-feast is to invite the whole village, young and old, to eat meat, drink wine, dance around the bonfire, etc. Generally, it is the tradition of Majiagou to do it when there is a major happy event.
Before the things were ready, some people came one after another and joined the team to help, but most of them glanced at Ji Xiaohan sitting on the tree from time to time, wanting to see what the rumored martial artist who walked the rivers and lakes looked like.
For them, the rivers and lakes are the magical world in the storyteller's mouth, which is a place that makes people's blood boil.
Ji Xiaohan was sitting on an old tree on the side of the road, he didn't feel the eyes of the villagers, because his attention was on the black knife in his hand.
The silvery moonlight sprinkled on the black knife, and the rusty blade could be seen clearly.
Ji Xiaohan knew that this was a treasure knife, but he was a little puzzled, these rusts did look like rust, but they always made Ji Xiaohan feel that this was not. Because no matter how much he wore it, the rust would not wear it off, as if they were completely integrated with the knife.
I really can't see through it! How is this knife made? With the presence of this rust, his sharpness is greatly reduced, and it is a little heavier to pick up.
Just when Ji Xiaohan was deep in thought, with the help of the villagers, the whole banquet had been prepared.
Heizi clapped his hands and said loudly: "Okay, folks, tomorrow is the big day of my son Huzi, in order to celebrate, I have set up this full feast, I hope to gather some joy, and tomorrow will be prosperous! Folks, let's eat, drink, laugh loudly, I hope you all have fun tonight!"
Ji Xiaohan came back to his senses, and there were already crowds below, and more than 100 families in Majiagou, both young and old, had all arrived here.
Ji Xiaohan looked at Heizi, only to see him pick up the torch, walk to a pile of unlit bonfires, throw the torches in his hands into the wooden pile, and the bonfire immediately ignited.
"Full feast...... Let's start, haha"
In an instant, a loud burst of laughter erupted, and laughter was thunderous.
Ji Xiaohan also jumped down from the tree, surrounded by a group of people, and walked into the crowd, because of the strangeness, he was a little restrained at first, but after a while, he let go, and the people here were very enthusiastic about him, and the spirits were bowls and bowls, and after a while, he was dizzy.
Ji Xiaohan finally felt the warmth he hadn't felt for a long time, this night, the moon was still so bright and round.
