Chapter Six
The village chief looked at Hua Tingxuan, then at Chu Danfeng, and sighed: "The young master looks like he is not yet in his prime, but he didn't expect his son to be so old."
Chu Danfeng just smiled and said nothing.
Mortals who are not cultivating immortals generally get married early, and some marry wives at the age of fourteen or fifteen. Nothing else, this little white-eyed wolf bullied him so much later, and Chu Danfeng couldn't bear to retaliate against this soft and weak baby - after all, he
I've never done anything in my life - it's good to take advantage of others verbally.
However, moving out children is the easiest way to win sympathy. The village chief finally agreed, but still warned him repeatedly: "After the sun goes down, the young master must stay in the room and never go out."
Chu Danfeng agreed wholeheartedly.
That night, the village chief arranged for a family to entertain the "two father and son". The farmer's family only had a simple meal, but after Chu Danfeng had eaten, he took out a piece of silver and generously "rewarded" the family. The villagers had worked hard for a year and were rewarded.
They may not be able to save many copper coins. Although the broken silver is small, it is still a huge sum of money for them. The family accepted it with great gratitude. Chu Danfeng folded his fan and asked enthusiastically: "Your village chief said, the village
There is an evil spirit at work who specializes in eating young men. This is quite new. Can you tell me about it?"
The family had just received the reward, and they told all the strange things they knew about recently.
"In the past two months, three young people have disappeared one after another. A few days ago, the bodies of two people were found by hunters in the mountains. You didn't know it, but they were all mummified! It scares me to death! Only Wang Dengniang's man is missing.
People die without seeing their bodies, but the village chief has sent people to report the matter to the immortals of the Shuangji Sect and ask them to come and catch the monster."
"So Young Master, I'd better leave as soon as possible tomorrow morning. I heard that the goblin likes young men with signs like yours and wants to absorb Yang energy!"
However, Chu Danfeng did not listen to the advice. At one moment he said that strange powers and deranged gods were unbelievable, at another moment he was eager to see what the immortal looked like. Finally, he made a decision and decided to stay in Taohua Village for a few more days.
He looked like a playboy who didn't know the world and was prepared to die.
But the fellow villagers sighed and sighed, but they were not very willing to let the God of Wealth go, and they were not very determined in driving him away.
That night, Chu Danfeng still slept in the same bed as Hua Tingxuan. The little guy climbed onto the wooden bed and said worriedly like a young adult: "Brother, are we out of money?"
Spiritual stones and mortal silver can be exchanged at a certain ratio. That scrap of silver can barely be exchanged for a low-grade spiritual stone. It is indeed Chu Danfeng's last savings.
Chu Danfeng didn't care much, "We may have to stay until the full moon night, so we can spend the money early so that we can stay comfortably for a few more days."
As early as outside Taohua Village, Chu Danfeng had encountered that thing from a distance and smelled its noisy evil spirit. Chu Danfeng had a rough idea. Seeing that his junior brother was still frowning, Chu Danfeng pinched
His little face said: "Don't worry, senior brother is here and I won't starve you."
The child's chubby little face was pinched into various shapes, and his speech was unclear: "Brother Chi (senior), don't you keep the Ming (Spirit) Stone to practice?"
The so-called "spiritual stones" can be used as hard currency in the world of cultivation, mainly because they can replenish spiritual energy for cultivation. In the previous life, Chu Danfeng regarded cultivation as his first priority, and carefully saved all the spiritual stones he earned.
I won't spend money so lavishly.
Senior brother has really changed a lot.
"What's the point of practicing?" Chu Danfeng said nonchalantly. Seeing the child's worried look, he found it funny and cute, and couldn't help but start teasing him, "Come on, call daddy and listen."
Hua Tingxuan: "???"
Chu Danfeng took advantage in a serious manner: "We have to stay for several days. Let's get used to it in advance. Don't expose yourself in front of others."
Hua Tingxuan: "...Don't scream!"
Because of the heroic reward that day and the heroic words of insisting on meeting the immortal and catching the monster, Chu Danfeng successfully established the image of a rich and wealthy young man with no heart. Even though the village chief was not happy with it, he still shamelessly stayed.
, the villager who stayed with him also took the opportunity to express his position: As long as the young master does not dislike the simplicity of the thatched hut, he can live in it.
During the days in Taohua Village, Chu Danfeng was having a prosperous life, but Hua Tingxuan was living like a child. He was forced by his senior brother to call him "daddy" and had to watch the big girls and young wives in the village make all kinds of excuses.
Send some fresh fruits or home-dried sweet potatoes to Chu Danfeng.
However, Chu Danfeng had absolutely no resistance to these feedings, and because he was a pretending rich young man, he really didn't have the money to make any more thank-you gifts, so he could only smile and bow to express his gratitude, which made them even more elated.
It's not that they have any evil intentions, it's just that these village women rarely see such a gentle and noble handsome young man, and they want to get closer to him.
Day after day, Hua Tingxuan finally couldn't bear it any longer. One afternoon during a slack time, he rushed up and shouted "Daddy".
Chu Danfeng peeled off the lotus seeds for a moment. Didn't this naughty kid refuse to call him daddy? Why was he so good today? Just when he was about to agree, he heard Hua Tingxuan say in a confident voice:
"Didn't Mom forbid you to talk to other women?"
Chu Danfeng: "?"
Hua Tingxuan glanced at the peasant women who immediately raised their ears, and continued to accuse: "You never change, have you forgotten how my mother ran away?!"
Chu Danfeng almost choked on a mouthful of fresh lotus seeds and coughed all over the place. She was thinking, "Fuck, where did you learn this?"
When Hua Tingxuan saw that his senior brother was choking, he quickly went up to pat him on the back. It was an almost instinctive action at first, but in the eyes of others, it had an added meaning: He was really a filial child, so sensible that it made people feel heartbroken.
Some people around even whispered: "No wonder this kid doesn't call him daddy. It turns out he made his wife angry and ran away. It's so shameful."
"The more handsome the husband is, the more unreliable he is."
"I think this young man is a bit stupid. He just wants to have fun. He heard that our village is not safe and he still wants to live there. It will be a full moon night in a few days..."
"..."
Immortal cultivators have sharp ears and eyes, and these whispers could be clearly heard in Chu Danfeng's ears, making the corners of his eyes jump.
"...Where did you learn these bastard words?" Chu Danfeng rubbed his brows and asked the child in a low voice.
Hua Tingxuan's little chest puffed up and she said innocently: "I learned it from Aunt Wang next door. Does it sound similar to me, senior brother? Didn't you tell me to learn to be a real father and son? Xuan'er took it seriously!"
...Are you quite proud of being a co-author?
Chu Danfeng couldn't complain, but this little kid was only five years old. He was childish and ignorant, and he couldn't blame him. He only told the child not to imitate other people's speech, and finally sat in a peach blossom tree in a large and small group.
Next, I peeled lotus seeds one by one and ate them, spending the whole afternoon quietly.
Thanks to Hua Tingxuan's "Children's Words Wuji", Mr. Chu's image of "a prodigal son and a heartless man" is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. No one feeds him anymore. Chu Danfeng can't eat snacks, his mouth is lonely, but his ears are not good.
Not clean.
As the time approaches Wangri day by day, the voices of complaints in the village gradually become unsuppressable.
"Will the immortals from Shuangji Sect come yet?"
"Eating our offerings every year, but nothing happens when we really need help. The most pitiful person is Wang Dengniang. She cries at home every day, and the banker is also panicked... After so long, her man's body must be smelly!"
At this time, Chu Danfeng would stand up and defend himself: "Getting rid of evil spirits is not as simple as you think. For example, demon foxes are best at hiding evil spirits. There is no point in rushing. You can only wait for the opportunity, not to mention that thing only does evil every month.
Once, the time has not come yet, Wang Sheng may not be in trouble..."
But often before he finished speaking, the villagers would put on a look of "I won't reason with fools", turn around and leave. This is quite good, but if they meet young people, they might even say "You
Don’t you believe in ghosts and gods? Leave your pretentious words to coax the girls, we don’t care about you, a pretty boy!”
...I can't help it. The image of a rich man with a heartless family that I established before is too deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Moreover, after eating a few snacks from the girls, the young men seem to be very vindictive...
Fortunately, after another four or five days, it was time to watch the sun, the full moon night that Chu Danfeng had been looking forward to for a long time.
That night, Chu Danfeng calmed down and turned on the lamp early, but stayed up late, always paying attention to what was going on outside.
When the moon was in the middle of the sky, the familiar fishy evil spirit finally appeared again, and Chu Danfeng's hanging heart was slightly relieved - it was just as he expected.
However, the monster's cultivation level has not yet been determined. He did not dare to be careless. He told the child to stay in the room and not move around. He also set up a barrier before quietly going out. However, Chu Danfeng didn't know and obediently promised not to mess around.
The moving child disappeared in an instant not long after he went out, but his barrier was still intact.
The Taohua Village was extremely quiet that night, as if every household had slept to death. Chu Danfeng gathered his true energy and felt the wind on his feet. He took out the disciple's sword from the mustard bag and followed the evil spirit to find it.
Sure enough, next to a dry well in the village, I saw a glistening snow-green light. From a distance, it looked like a lilac flower illuminated by the moonlight, indescribably beautiful and enchanting.
But if you look closely, you will get goosebumps all over your body. Where is the harmless lilac flower? It is clearly a skull with a faint light!
A purple-furred fox is holding the skull on its head, clasping its front paws together like a human being, and kowtows towards the full moon. What's strange is that, although it makes such a big movement, the skull on its head does not move at all, as if it is growing on its furry head.
Same.
