Volume 12 Chapter 7 Expedition I
Zhuang Han nodded, as lively as a deer: "I'll send you out." Young master, you don't need to come, it's cold outside. ”
Hong Yu had no choice but to sit back again.
Dao Qingyue smiled lightly at him: "It's bothering, but fortunately, Yu is less generous and doesn't care about me." ”
Hong Yu smiled: "How can it." ”
The two girls came out and walked out of the small courtyard, and Dao Qingyue looked at her with a smile: "Han girl, when did you become so protective of food?"
Zhuang Hanqiao's face turned red and said, "You are the one who is about to inherit the unification, why are you still so open-mouthed." ”
"Giggle" Dao Qingyue smiled, making Zhuang Han's face even redder.
"Okay, okay, I'm not going to play tricks on you, if you feel happy, take advantage of it. Dao Qingyue stood still, held Zhuang Han's hand with both hands, and said to her very seriously.
Zhuang Han's expression darkened: "With my identity, how can I be qualified to think about this." ”
She waved her hand: "Don't say anything, let's go." ”
Dao Qingyue nodded silently, feeling sorry for her.
Hong Yu was sitting in the middle of the house, and there was a sudden "chirp" at the door, and Huo Yunji stuck out a head from the door: "Young master, don't wait, you won't come back if you wait for others." ”
Hong Yu pretended to be annoyed: "What are you talking nonsense?" ”
"Hmph, I'm not talking nonsense, the sisters have seen it, you look at the eyes of His Royal Highness, I can't wait to put all the eyeballs on it. ”
Hong Yu waved his hand: "Go, go, nonsense." People who love beauty have their hearts, and the knife girl is beautiful, so I look at it twice, what's wrong. It's you, you've been looking for opportunities to tease the young master lately, shouldn't you be punished?"
Hong Yu pounced with his teeth and claws, of course Huo Yunji couldn't let him catch it, and shouted like a lark to dodge: "Young master, you better go and catch Sister Han." ”
Zhuang Han happened to send Dao Qingyue back, his little face was a little red from the cold, and he was even more delicate, Hong Yu's heart was moved, and he was encouraging himself again, taking advantage of today's good days, to do something inferior to beasts Zhuang Han screamed and fled back to his room quickly.
Hong Yu is very depressed, Wupin Yuanding's skills are good
The next day, Hong Shengri didn't have to go out, he waited for others to come to pay New Year's greetings, but Hong Yu and Hong Lie had a hard time, and some old ones had to be visited one by one, Hong Yu only lasted for half a day, so he threw the errand to the eldest brother and hid in his own home.
In the evening, dinner was not complicated, and during the meal, Hong Yu noticed that there was something wrong with the expressions of his grandfather and eldest brother. After eating, Hong Shengri said lightly: "Come with me." ”
Hong Yu didn't know what to do, so he had to follow behind his eldest brother and honestly went to his grandfather's study.
Hong Shengri sat behind the desk, with a calm face and did not say a word. The eldest brother also sat honestly with a solemn expression. Hong Yu wondered, what the hell is going on?
For a long time, Hong Shengri suddenly waved his hand: "It's almost time, you two go." ”
Hong Lie hesitated, but still said, "Grandpa, aren't you going?"
Hong Shengri was categorical: "Don't go"
"Yes. ”
Hong Lie bowed out, Hong Yu followed behind and saluted his grandfather, and then ran out quickly. After walking out for more than a dozen steps, he wondered and asked, "Big brother, where are you going?"
Hong Lie looked at him in surprise: "I have to go at this time of year, have you forgotten?"
Hong Yu laughed dryly, he didn't receive the master's memory very completely, and he really couldn't remember it.
"The last time I was seriously injured, there were some things that I somehow forgot. ”
Hong Lie looked at him strangely, but fortunately he didn't think much about it, and sighed as he walked forward, "Go see my father." ”
Hong Yu had a bang in his head: Didn't his father and father say that the second generation of the Hong family is dead...
Hong Lie sighed again: "I know that grandpa actually wants to go, but his temper is really ...... Alas"
Hong Yu followed, thought about it carefully, and finally straightened it out, it seemed that the Hong family was reluctant to mention his father, but he really didn't explicitly say that his father was dead.
Hong Lie was very confident, he had already prepared, and when he came out of his grandfather, he sent two food boxes to the basket. Hong Lie and his younger brother took it separately, and got into the carriage out of Hong's mansion.
The car slowly drove out and headed for the south gate of Wudu. At this time, the city gate was closed, but the identity of the Hong family was there, and the soldiers on duty quietly opened a crack in the door and let them out.
Outside the city gate, the carriage turned westward, and after walking for a few miles, a deserted Taoist temple appeared in front of it. Hong Yu was even more puzzled.
The carriage stopped in front of the Taoist temple, and Hong Lie got out of the car with the food box: "Let's go." ”
Hong Yu took the rest of the things and followed the eldest brother down, the people were all standing by the carriage, only the two brothers stepped forward, Hong Lie patted the door, and the people inside seemed to know that they would come, and soon there were footsteps to open the door.
The dilapidated wooden door opened with a creak, and Hong Lie was a little excited: "Dad"
Hong Yu was blocked behind and couldn't see clearly, he really wanted to go up to see what this father looked like, and the person inside said in a gentle and calm voice: "Come, come in." ”
Hong Lie walked in. Hong Yu came up and got closer, he was a middle-aged man dressed very plainly, with a blue cotton coat, a Taoist bun on his head, and an old face, just like those cultivators in countless Taoist temples in Great Xia. If there is anything special about this person, it is that his eyes appear very peaceful, and when people look at it, they feel that the whole person is calm.
The man smiled at Hong Yu, who didn't know how to respond
He hurriedly dodged the smile, lowered his head and followed the eldest brother in a hurry.
The Taoist temple is very small, the main hall is in the tribute to the three Qing Taoist lords, there is a small house on each side, there is no incense, it seems very deserted. The man lived in a room on one side, and when the brothers went in, they sat down to boil water and make tea.
Hong Lie hurriedly stepped forward to take it: "You sit." He gave Hong Yu a look, Hong Yu opened the food box very blankly, Hong Lie said: "This is the second new chef, the craftsmanship is very good, Dad, you can taste it." ”
The man smiled and nodded, raised his chopsticks and took two bites, nodded and praised, "It's really good." That being said, he just took two bites of each and put down his chopsticks.
Hong Lie boiled the tea, poured it for the three of them, hesitated for a moment and said, "Grandpa, let us come to see you, you ...... Still staying here this year
"It's nice here. ”
"But ......" Hong Lie seemed to want to persuade again, but he didn't know what to say, so he could only sigh lowly.
Hong Yu watched coldly from the sidelines, the man felt his gaze, turned his head and said, "Xiao Yu is doing a good job, I've heard about it." ”
Hong Yu didn't know what to say, and the atmosphere in the small room was a little awkward.
After a while, the man nodded and said, "Okay, go back, I'm fine here, let my father not worry." ”
Hong Lie hesitated for a moment and got up: "Yes." ”
The brothers bowed together and went out. The man sent them out of the Taoist temple, and Hong Lie stood at the door, and his eyes were a little red: "Dad"
The man waved his hand: "Needless to say, I'm fine here." ”
Hong Lie gritted his teeth and left, followed by Hong Yu. It wasn't until the two got into the carriage that the old wooden door closed.
In the car, Hong Lie closed his eyes, and Hong Yu could see that the eldest brother didn't want to cry.
Hong Yu has always been like a bystander, he is too unfamiliar with this "father", and the memories he received from his master are even more blank for his father.
He is in another shijie and has his own relatives. When I first came to this shijie, it took a lot of trouble to accept my grandfather and my eldest brother and sister. Now there is a stranger "father" who suddenly pops up, this feeling is really weird.
In the car, Hong Lie closed his eyes and didn't speak, Hong Yu was actually curious but couldn't ask, it was quiet for a long time, only the sound of the axle creaking.
"Alas" Hong Lie let out a long sigh and opened his eyes: "Father's body is getting worse and worse. ”
Hong Yudao also saw this, according to calculations, his father Hong Chengye's age should not exceed forty. But the man I saw just now didn't seem to be younger than his grandfather.
"There is a spiritual well under that temple, and the water of the well can suppress the toxicity in my father's body. But the effect of the medicine is too weak, and his old man refuses to go home, as long as he comes back, let's find a way together, we can always find a way to detoxify, it is much better than guarding a well, alas, grandpa refuses to come, it seems that only wait for grandma to come out, ask her old man to persuade his father. ”
Hong Yu endured and didn't ask, how did Hong Chengye become what he is now. In fact, until now, the legend of the second generation of the Hong family's geniuses in Wudu City is still circulating. His father, Hong Chengye, is the youngest Sanpin Manifestation in Great Xia, and his future is limitless.
The second uncle Hong Chengluo was the most outstanding artificial master in Daxia that year, claiming that one person could be worth 100,000 male soldiers, but such a talent was pushed to the battlefield and finally sacrificed his life for the country
Sister-in-law Hong Chengyao is the first talented woman in Wudu before Song Youran, with unparalleled appearance, over the years, whether it is Song Youran or Li Xiaoxiao, in fact, people in Wudu feel that they are still a step behind Hong Chengyao. My sister-in-law also disappeared after a big war, and her whereabouts are unknown. However, although no body was found, the place where she disappeared was indeed in the barren forest of the Mother River, and almost no one could get out of it.
The second generation of the Hong family is a genius, which is regrettable, but in any case, the final outcome of the second uncle and sister-in-law can be clearly explained, but their father, Hong Chengye, the son of the Hong family, seems to be unwilling to talk about it in Wudu. Even with Hong Yu's understanding of him, he was limited to one "the youngest third-grade powerhouse in Great Xia", and he didn't know anything else.
Just when Hong Yu was thinking about how to figure out what happened to his father, the carriage arrived at the city of Wudu, entered the city gate after a brief negotiation, and then returned to Hongfu the same way.
The eldest brother was not in high spirits today, so he said goodbye to Hong Yu and went back. Hong Yu returned to his small courtyard with a stomach full of questions.
Zhuang Han and the others were still waiting for him, and after serving him to wash up, he withdrew.
In the past few days for the New Year, Hong Yu has not cultivated, and today he finally has time, he sat cross-legged on the futon, slowly running the ⊥ Wild True Scripture.
