Yin Xiuxuan did not shout, but walked into the courtyard calmly. This was a familiar but slightly unfamiliar courtyard. He was only an eleven-year-old boy when he left, but now he is a seventeen-year-old young man when he returns. His face has no trace of the past.
Childlike, but adding a bit of vicissitudes and vigor.
In the courtyard, a child was holding an oil lamp and pondering a piece of stone, as if he wanted to polish it into a gem.
Yin Xiuxuan walked silently. When he got closer, the child saw Yin Xiuxuan. He was startled and asked weakly: "Who are you? Why did you come to my house? Are you looking for dad to do stone work?"
Yin Xiuxuan did not speak, but nodded slightly.
When the child saw it, Sahuan ran into the house and shouted: "Daddy, someone is looking for you to do work!"
"Who is it, it's so late!" A familiar voice of complaint came, and Father Yin walked out of the courtyard. Then under the dim light, he looked at Yin Xiuxuan.
"You! Why are you back?" As he spoke, Father Yin looked around, as if to confirm that no one else had noticed Yin Xiuxuan nearby.
"Pa!" Yin Xiuxuan loosened his knees and knelt on the ground.
"Get up, get up, go into the house and talk!"
Yin Xiuxuan nodded in agreement and followed Yin's father into the house. Seeing a series of situations, the child was a little confused, dropped the stones, and entered the house.
"Who is it, coming so late? Is it the third uncle from the village?" Mother Yin's familiar voice came from the kitchen.
"Child, please lower your voice and come out quickly!" Yin's father hurriedly whispered.
After hearing this, Mother Yin quickly wiped her hands on her apron and walked into the main room. When she looked up, she saw the black figure and the familiar face that was unfamiliar, and her eyes couldn't help but moisten.
"Child, why are you back!" Mother Yin quickly grabbed Yin Xiuxuan's arm, as if she was afraid that he would run away, looked up and down, and tears finally overflowed.
"Mom, my child is unfilial and failed to come back to serve you. Please punish me!" Yin Xiuxuan knelt down again as he said that.
Mother Yin held Yin Xiuxuan's head in her arms, wiped away her tears, and said, "Mother doesn't blame you, mother doesn't blame you!"
Father Yin stood aside, smoking a dry cigarette, and said: "Look at you mother and son, you two have finally met each other, and you are still crying. Why don't you hurry up and get some food for the child!"
Mother Yin wiped away her tears, nodded, and said repeatedly: "Yes, yes, yes, son, mother will get you something to eat." Then she walked to the kitchen.
"Dad!" Yin Xiuxuan knelt on the ground and looked at Father Yin.
"Hey, get up quickly, you're such an adult!" He lit the cigarette again, found a stool and sat down.
Yin Xiuxuan stood up but did not sit down. He looked at the children beside him and said, "Is this the fourth child?"
The child was still a little confused and didn't know what to do. Father Yin nodded and said, "Yes, this is Xiaosi. When you left, he couldn't walk yet! Xiaosi, call me brother!"
Xiaosi understood a little bit and called out brother.
Yin Xiuxuan nodded and asked: "Xiaosi, you are seven years old this year, right? It's time to pass the boyhood ceremony. Do you have a name?"
Xiaosi nodded and said, "The name given to me by the village chief is Yin Guo!"
"Well, huh, I didn't expect the village chief to still hold a grudge against me. It doesn't matter, I was a young man back then. I didn't understand the situation, so I made some mistakes. But I've made you suffer, Xiaosi!"
"Yeah!" Xiaosi shook his head, not knowing what Yin Xiuxuan said.
"Haha, but that's okay. I will make it up to you, brother!" Yin Xiuxuan turned around and said to Father Yin: "Dad, what's going on at home in the past few years?"
Father Yin shook his head and said: "It's not a big deal. It's just that several waves of people have come to see you in the past two years. I just told them that you didn't come back. Some of them left some gifts, and some just left!"
"Oh, so..."
Before Yin Xiuxuan finished speaking, Yin's mother brought out the food and spread it out for Yin Xiuxuan to eat.
Although the food at home is not as gorgeous and rich as Qifeng Tower and Sanjiang Pavilion, it is extremely delicious to Yin Xiuxuan.
Watching her son devouring the food, Yin's mother kept asking Yin Xiuxuan how he had been doing all these years.
Regarding these years, Yin Xiuxuan naturally said something nice to put Zhang's mother at ease. The night was warm and late at night, and each of them slept peacefully without mentioning it.
A few days later, when it was still dark early in the morning, Yin Xiuxuan went up the mountain with Yin's father, Xiao Si and three others. They came back suddenly at nightfall. At this time, Yin Xiuxuan also used his extraordinary lightness skills to dodge to avoid possible dangers.
The villagers of the village reunited at night, talked about family matters, and slept peacefully without mentioning anything.
Of course, Yin Xiuxuan also didn't forget to visit Yin Xiaolan, who he thought about day and night, and his friends in the village. But now that he was busy, he didn't show up, he just watched from a distance.
In the patriarch's home, Yin Xiuxuan saw Yin Xiaolan, who had become the young lady. She lost a bit of the innocence of a girl and gained a bit of the grace of a young woman. It can be seen from her daily life that in the past few years, Yin Xiaolan has become quite popular.
Hua's love and care made the two of them like glue, which was indeed enviable to others.
Yin Xiuxuan has not returned to Yinjia Village since he entered the Black Water Sect and gained an official status. The reason is that there is an obstacle in this aspect. In his heart, he always does not want the person he once liked to be happily embraced by others. But now.
Yin Xiuxuan has long been different. Looking at the shadows hugging each other on the window, Yin Xiuxuan smiled slightly, sighed softly, and silently sent a blessing, which was an end to the ignorant attachment of this young man.
As for the other partners, most of them either inherited their father's business or went to work in the county. For example, Xiaopang back then is now running his butcher shop at the entrance of the village. Although it seems ordinary, he also has his own
A satisfaction.
For half a month, the family enjoyed themselves happily, and then Yin Xiuxuan said goodbye. Yin's mother refused to give in, but Yin's father stopped Yin's mother and whispered a few words. Yin's mother said nothing more and went back to the kitchen with red eyes.
That night, Yin Xiuxuan set up his magical talisman and left Yinjia Village. Only three members of his family were left to watch the village entrance.
Yin Xiuxuan was not a cruel person, but after embarking on the road of cultivating immortals, he had to let go of many worries. This time he left the silver he earned to his parents, as well as several martial arts secret books and the book "Form Strategy".
Even though these things may not necessarily be of much use after Xiaosi is given away, they can still be regarded as compensation for his family.
Along the way, Yin Xiuxuan flew towards the direction of Taiyang County. It was also a magical talisman, but now with the support of true energy, this magical talisman has the greatest use. Not only is it faster than a thousand-mile horse, but it is also durable.
It is also greatly lengthened. This is the real use of the magic talisman used by cultivators.
Before dawn, Yin Xiuxuan came to the county city. Looking at the lights on the city tower keeping watch, he sighed, jumped over the several-foot-high wall, and entered the city.
It has been two years since he returned, but the county is as familiar as ever. Yin Xiuxuan followed the path and entered the Black Water Gate. With his current Qinggong, no one would be able to detect anything unless a top master kept watch.
Transforming into a dark shadow, Yin Xiuxuan walked into the small courtyard of Lian Tang. He saw that most of the rooms in the courtyard had no lights, and presumably everyone was still asleep.
After choosing his own room, Yin Xiuxuan went in and took a look. Except for a little dust, nothing else had changed. He thought there were people cleaning his room for him in the past two years!
Touching out the door, Yin Xiuxuan came to Wei Jiang's door. Without knocking, he fired out a burst of zhenqi, cut off all the bolts and locks, and quietly stepped inside. The strange thing was that there was no one in the room, and he touched the table.
There was even more dust than in my own room.
Yin Xiuxuan couldn't help but have some doubts, but there were only three or four people in the sect who could answer his doubts.
Yin Xiuxuan then found his way to Deacon Wu's courtyard and found that there was no one in Deacon Wu's room. However, compared to Wei Jiang's room, there was not much dust. He must have gone out to mine.
After failing to find the person twice, Yin Xiuxuan was not discouraged. He went to Wang Gang's residence in the Iron Cavalry Hall and knocked lightly on the door. He only heard a familiar voice coming from inside: "Who is it?"
"Brother Wang, it's my little Xuanzi!" Yin Xiuxuan also lowered his voice and replied.
With a creak, the door opened. When Wang Gang saw Yin Xiuxuan, he pulled him in. Yin Xiuxuan was not prepared and followed Wang Gang into the room. Wang Gang stretched out his head, looked at the situation outside the door, and quickly opened the door.
Closed.
"Brother Wang, what's going on?" Yin Xiuxuan couldn't help but wonder when he saw Wang Gang being so careful.
"Brother Yin, what have you committed? Why are everyone in the house looking for you?" Wang Gang asked without answering.
"Look for me!" Yin Xiuxuan snorted coldly and said, "I'm not dead and they will naturally look for me, but Brother Wang, are you also implicated?"
Wang Gang sighed and said: "It's a long story..."
Afterwards, Wang Gang told Yin Xiuxuan everything that had happened in the past two years. After Yin Xiuxuan heard this, his eyes shone with a frightening light, and he said in a cold voice: "It's too much to bully someone!" With that, he smashed the solid pear wood table to pieces with one palm.
