Autumn rain falls on a leaf, and withered grass tells spring dreams. A child has just grown up, and is only thirteen years old.

dong dong dong

Yu Peng stood in front of the door and knocked softly three times.

Soon, the sound of children running over was heard in the house, and then the door opened. An 8-year-old girl opened the door, revealing a sweet-looking little face. After seeing clearly that it was Yu Peng, she turned her head and shouted loudly.

cheer

"Mom, mom, dad, brother is back!"

After saying that, he pushed open the door hard and jumped towards Yu Peng.

Yu Peng was also very skilled. He bent down slightly to hug his sister, and with a smooth movement, he let her sit on his right arm. He bent down and carried her into the house with one hand, and closed the door with his left hand.

Feeling the change in the weight of his sister's body, Yu Peng jokingly said to his sister

"Yu Si, have you eaten a little too much recently? My brother can't hold you anymore."

Yu Si immediately pouted his mouth angrily and replied with a snort.

"Hmph, what you say is as contrary as it is against your will. I only weigh a few dozen pounds. How can you not be able to carry me? Don't think I don't know. Mom told me that you can carry it with just one hand now.

It weighs more than three hundred kilograms!"

Yu Peng smiled and rubbed his head against Yu Si's belly, saying with a particularly sincere expression.

"No matter how much you carry, it's still stuff, but you are the treasure of our family. Of course I can't carry you."

This made Yu Si laugh out loud. He pushed Yu Peng's head randomly with his hands and yelled at his brother to let him go.

At this time, my mother came out of the house, stopped the two of them from messing around, and told Yu Si

"You are so old and you are still fooling around. Go and make a cup of tea for your brother."

"No! My brother came back and asked me to make tea. His tea tastes better than mine." Yu Si responded forcefully to his mother as if someone suddenly supported him.

Then he turned around and said to Yu Peng in a coquettish tone.

"Brother, why don't you make me some tea~ I haven't drank the tea you made for several days."

Yu Peng smiled knowingly at his mother, rubbed Yu Si's head, messed up her hair, put Yu Si on the ground, turned to his mother and said

"It's okay, let me come. I just happened to bring some nasturtium petals and honey. The petals were picked from the mountains in the summer, fried and dried. The honey was also harvested by myself at that time. I want to give you a taste." Then he went to the living room to have tea.

There was some fiddling at the table.

At this time, Yu Si didn't care whether his hair was messy or not, and ran over to watch his brother make tea.

Yu Peng learned how to make tea from the ghost of an elder. The details of his movements reflect everyone's style. Every movement is as if it is designed, containing a particularly comfortable rhythm, which is pleasing to the eye.

.

When Yu Peng burns tea, he does not use ordinary electric heating or firewood, but a flame ignited by spiritual energy. Of course, this is not a spiritual fire, but an ordinary flame.

The advantage of this kind of flame is that it is convenient and has controllable temperature, which can spread the flavor of tea leaves to the extreme.

What I brewed today was nasturtium tea, which is a specialty of Chengde. Combined with honey, the light and special flavor soon spread throughout the room, accompanied by a hint of sweetness.

What Yu Si looked at was that his eyes were shining, and what came out were little stars of admiration.

My mother looked at the brother and sister. Her eyes felt a little sore for a moment. She tried not to shed tears and didn't speak. She quietly walked to the kitchen to help her father prepare meals.

Today is Yu Peng's 13th birthday. For Yu Peng, who has not returned to this home for a long time, it is a rare warm moment apart from the heavy training.

Yu Si was born when he was five years old in Yu Peng. Since then, he has been living in the building here. Yu Peng lives alone in the basement business there. On the one hand, he is afraid of affecting Yu Peng's cultivation. On the other hand, it is also because

Sisa is just an ordinary child, and everyone hopes that Sisa lives like an ordinary person.

In the process of practicing Yu Peng, his parents certainly knew how much he suffered and how painful it was, but there was nothing they could do about it. Everyone has his own destiny. Since he is an ordinary person, how can he grow up peacefully?

, should be considered the happiest outcome.

Therefore, since Yu Peng was six years old, he has been living alone in Dishang. His parents only come over occasionally to cook some meals or deliver medicinal materials for medicinal baths. Fortunately, Aunt Chen Song is always there to cook.

, and not hungry either.

During the years when he was in school, when Yu Peng came home from school in the morning and evening, he would use tricks to prevent outsiders from seeing him. Therefore, people around him could only see that the door of the store was locked for a long time, no one came in or out, and the store was not open to sell goods.

, all feel a bit wasteful, but have no more ideas.

Occasionally, during breaks in practice, Yu Peng would secretly return to his parents' home to rest and feel the warmth of his parents' affection, just occasionally.

Most of the time, only a few spirits accompanied Yu Peng, practicing silently at Di Shang.

Boredom, boredom, pain, and busyness are all suffered by Yu Peng alone. This is the normal state of life.

Yu Si didn't have a deep impression of his brother at first, but in the past two years he has gradually developed an understanding of him. He is also very close to this brother who only appears once in a while.

Although Yu Si is an ordinary person, he is still precocious and knows more than other children of the same age.

This is of course also due to Yu Peng. Ever since he was able to make spiritual weapons, Yu Peng would send them to his home whenever he had nothing to do. Therefore, there are several spiritual weapons hanging on Sisa's body now, all of which Yu Peng worked hard to customize for Sisa.

.

This child is surrounded by strong spiritual energy 24 hours a day. Of course, he is far away from ordinary children. He is very sensible, has quick thinking and reaction, and has a strong ability to absorb and understand new things. He can learn everything very quickly. In school, he has already

He has the title of little prodigy.

Second only to the girl who was once hailed as a fairy descended to earth, that girl's name is Li Yi...

However, Yu Si has never mentioned to outsiders that he has an older brother. With constant reminders and requests from his parents, plus his delicate mind, he naturally knows the difference between Yu Peng. If nothing else, how can ordinary people pick him up?

Three hundred kilograms of stuff? National athletes only weigh more than a hundred kilograms, right?

Occasionally, when I go back to my hometown to visit relatives, my relatives will ask me why my brother didn’t come back with me and what he’s like now. Yu Si will also use the lines he prepared a long time ago and complain to his relatives, saying that my brother has been rebellious since he was a child and dropped out of school to work after graduating from elementary school.

, I am not on good terms with my family, and I won’t listen to anyone who can’t be persuaded. I don’t come back even once every year. Sometimes I even shed a few tears while talking.

"Oh, then you have to keep an eye on it, don't let Yu Peng go out and get caught. The world is in chaos now. I heard that in the neighboring village, there were a few kids who went out and caused trouble. The police

They all came to our door."

Some relatives said words of concern, and their eyes showed that they were joking, laughing, and adding insult to injury.

Of course Yu Si could understand, but he never made any excuses.

What is there to say to these people?

Back to the topic, today is Yu Peng's birthday, so it is natural to make preparations for the birthday. The food is the parents' specialty and the children also like it. Of course, the more important thing is the noodles.

This is one of the many customs in the north. Noodles must be eaten on birthdays, which means that the year will go smoothly.

While Yu Peng and Yu Si were drinking tea and chatting in the living room, their parents were also busy in the kitchen, talking about their own topics.

When everything was ready and the food was on the table, the family of four sat down formally. There was no birthday cake this year, so there were no birthday candles, but Yu Peng still put his hands together symbolically in front of his eyes, closed his eyes and made a wish

"I hope that my family will be healthy and safe," of course, is just a symbolic ceremony, and what I seek is my own inner comfort.

After that, it was time to enjoy the meal. My parents' cooking skills became more and more exquisite, and the tea Yu Peng brewed was fragrant and delicious. The whole family was satisfied with what they ate.

Yu Peng did not go back immediately after the meal. He helped his mother wash the dishes and chopsticks. He did not use the ability to control objects. He just washed the dishes one by one like ordinary people. In fact, he wanted to spend more time with his mother.

Since the beginning of this year, Taoist Luo Zhen has canceled the formations in this area, allowing many ghosts to come out and walk around. Yu Peng roughly described the ghost situation in this area to his family. From the past to the present, from the oldest to the youngest, there are tens of thousands.

Ghosts are active in this area, some like to come out for a walk, but most of them are used to being bored in their own ghost houses.

When it comes to the images of ghosts with mutilated bodies, both mother and Xisa will be frightened and scream. It is said that the corpses of some new deceased are buried near the tombs of the previous deceased or on top of the previous tombs. This is heard every day.

They quarreled and yelled, which made their parents and Xisa laugh out loud.

This is a very strange atmosphere. Yu Peng has never been a child in the eyes of his parents, and it is difficult for them to treat Yu Peng as a child.

Instead, it is like an adult who has grown up and left home to study or work outside the home, and occasionally uses the holidays to come back to visit his parents and family.

There is no mutual dependence, no worries about safety, more like old friends who have been together for many years, respecting and understanding each other while supporting each other.

When she gets tired of talking, Xia Xia will pull Yu Peng to play a popular game among children. At this time, the parents will hold hands and quietly watch the two children playing and having fun.

Happy times are always short-lived. When the afterglow of the setting sun slides across the corner of the window, the night also secretly lights up the lights.

After saying goodbye to his family, Yu Peng walked along the road, stepping on the shadow of the street lamp, and slowly walked towards another home.

In the winter in the north, it gets dark and cold early, so apart from the cars passing by, there are very few people passing by on the road. However, Yu Peng still nods slightly to the front or side from time to time, and also sends or responds in his mind.

with some information.

"Hey, Aunt Zhao, she's out for a walk again."

"Brother Li, you can't do this. You managed to press your head properly, but look, it fell off again."

"Sister Sun, now the river has been piled with stones and guardrails have been installed. And you see the river is so shallow that you can't catch the scapegoat. You said it would be great to let me help you reincarnate. Why do you have to rely on your own efforts?

How many lifetimes will you have to wait to catch a substitute and then be reincarnated?"

"Grandma Liu, your grandson was already over 80 years old when he died. Isn't it inappropriate for you to beat him like this? Besides, he just frightened his son in a dream, and it didn't hurt his luck or spirit. He couldn't do this.

"Hey, okay, okay, I won't say anything anymore, you can do whatever you want, you can do whatever you want."

"Oh... little brother, please stop following me, okay? Your parents are no longer in this city. I really don't know where they have gone."

"That young lady leaning against the window, you are a girl after all, and you are so good-looking. You are always leaning against the window to peek at people bathing, or looking at men. You are really not elegant..."

"Hi, Brother Zhao, okay, um, yes, I just went home. Okay, I know, I should spend more time with my family when I'm alive. I understand. Hey, brother Zhao, you're surprisingly a bit weird today.

It’s so long-winded, it doesn’t fit your style as a gangster boss at all... Hey, hey, I was wrong, I was wrong..."
