As Uncle Liu spoke, he waved the whip in his hand as if he had remembered something. He turned to look at me and said, "Haha, young man, you didn't come here to find him, right?"
"I don't know yet. I just went into the mountain to look for someone, but I don't know who I am looking for. From your tone, I think he looks a bit like him." I answered with a helpless smile.
"Oh, if that's really the case, then you have to be mentally prepared. This monk hasn't been seen for several years. Who knows if he is still alive." The other party said and tapped lightly with the whip.
Knocked the little donkey, and then stopped talking.
The mountain road was bumpy, but luckily I didn't walk very fast. I wandered like this for most of the night, and then a small village appeared in the mountain col in front of me. At that time, the moonlight was still good. Although I couldn't see the specific situation clearly,
At a glance, this village can have hundreds of households. In such a relatively closed mountain valley, such a village should be considered rare. In the middle of the village, there is a small river in the middle, and a small wooden bridge spans it.
Go up, go up from the wooden bridge, turn around a few times, and soon arrive at Uncle Liu's house.
As soon as I entered the yard, I was stunned. I saw the old man dressed simply, but I didn't expect that the yard at home was really big. This is a typical northern house. It seems that it should be left over from the Republic of China.
It has a wooden beam structure and blue bricks. It is not a fenced courtyard, but surrounded by high green brick walls. In mountainous areas where fenced courtyards are common, this kind of compound can be regarded as a mansion.
"We're here," Uncle Liu said, jumping off the carriage. When we got off, the little black donkey took care of himself and pulled the carriage to the donkey shed. At that time, it was almost dawn in the second half of the night.
, but among the five houses side by side, one still had a light on. As soon as we arrived, an old lady and a young man about seventeen or eighteen years old came out of it carrying a kerosene lamp.
The old lady had a kind face and was probably the one who could invite the disciple of the Immortal Family. This person was very enthusiastic and quickly let us into the room before we could introduce ourselves. As soon as we entered the room, we saw a very old man.
On the Eight Immortals' table, a variety of dishes were laid out, most of which were game from the mountains, and some vegetables grown in one's own yard.
It was cooked at the table, and we were all stunned, because although the dishes were held on the plate, they were still steaming. It was obvious that they had just been cooked not long ago...
Seeing our puzzled faces, the old lady smiled and said: "Haha, young man, are you wondering why this food is still hot? Don't worry, this is what the fairy family said. The fairy family said that you won't be here until midnight
You can come here, don’t be too anxious, no, it’s true, you’re hungry after walking all the way, eat, eat! The house has been packed for you, so I’ll stay for a few more days when I come this time!”
"Oh, why are you so embarrassed..." Seeing the other party's enthusiasm, I said a little embarrassedly.
"Don't be embarrassed. How dare we neglect the Xian family? The Xian family has said that we must be careful about this matter. Otherwise, if we neglect everyone, her Bai family, big and small, will probably...
I can’t eat it while walking around! To be honest, grandma has invited Xianjia so many times, and this is the first time I’ve seen people in Xianjia who are afraid, so you’re welcome, just eat it.”
The person who spoke was the little grandson of the Liu family. He looked about 17 or 18 years old. He looked quite energetic. Judging from his conversation, he should be educated. Generally speaking, he gave people a pious and respectful feeling. However, this young man always
I looked at Gui Gui and Ding Ling intentionally or unintentionally. When Gui Gui looked at him, he seemed very nervous. Seeing him like this, I didn't pay much attention. I thought back then, when I first saw Gui Gui's true face, my bear
Not as good as him...
In fact, we were not very hungry, but despite the warm hospitality, we only ate a little. In comparison, Uncle Liu was rude and sat aside, pouring us some shochu he got from who knows where.
I made a toast and asked me questions to learn about our situation. When they learned that I was a disciple of the Maoshan sect, several of them had a very respectful look in their eyes, and they didn’t know.
, have these old people in the valley heard of it?
While we were talking, the door opened a small crack, and two girls, one big and one young, poked their heads out of the crack. Then, a kid who was about five or six years old also came to join in the fun and saw us turning around.
I looked at them and saw them running away like a swarm of swarms. I was stunned and turned around to ask Uncle Liu who they were. After asking, I found out that these were all members of the younger generation of their family. Counting those who ate with us, the two of them were
A grandson and two granddaughters, all left behind by the old couple’s two sons.
After hearing this, Ding Ling asked Uncle Liu why he didn't see his two sons and daughter-in-law. Hearing this, the old man smiled and said: "My two sons have gone out to work like others. Several times.
I only come back once a month. No, my wife and children have been left behind. My two daughters-in-law have already gone to bed. It’s too late, so I didn’t let them come over. Don’t mind, these nine little bastards are all here.
My old lady is spoiled rotten."
As the other party said this, he laughed innocently, and his old face also showed deep happiness.
"That's great." Ding Ling said with a smile.
"Young man, are these two your wives?" The old lady seemed to have eaten, so she didn't accompany us. She sat cross-legged on the bed, holding the soles of her shoes and asked me.
"No, the older one is my wife, and the younger one is my sister." I explained with a smile.
"Oh, you are so lucky. Look at these two girls... they are so handsome..." the old lady said and glanced at Gui Gui again. Hearing this, Gui Gui covered his head.
She put on a shy smile on her red smiling face, and that little look was really cute. But before I could laugh, the old lady said again: "But, young man, why are you so different from your sister?
It doesn’t look like it either.”
"Are you trying to say that I'm too ugly..." I said with a black line on my face, a little embarrassed.
As soon as these words came out, Ding Ling and Gui Gui nodded in unison, and immediately everyone in the room started laughing.
Okay, just be ugly, I'm happy with it.
Thinking of this, I turned my depression into motivation, so I asked the old lady about the fairy family, if possible, if she could let me meet. When the old lady heard this, she shook her head and said that the fairy family was sleeping now and could not invite her.
The upper body also said that the Xian family said that she was afraid of causing trouble and would not see her if she could.
