Chapter 543 The wanderer returns home, things have changed and people have changed
Qian Chaoguang smiled and nodded slightly at him: "Uncle Tie, long time no see."
Huo Yutong also showed a smile and said sweetly: "Uncle Tie, long time no see."
The middle-aged man touched his bald head and said with a surprised look on his face: "My dear, are you really the two of you? Six or seven years have passed and you have become a young man! I almost didn't recognize you."
It’s obvious from the way you two dress up that you’ve definitely done well in these years! Okay, boy!”
Qian Chaoguang smiled and said: "It's not bad. We went to the college to study and succeeded. Now we, brother and sister, are staying in school and working on some small businesses."
Tie Yong patted Qian Chaoguang's shoulder and praised him again and again: "Okay, it's good, it's good, it's very strong. My dad has often talked about you over the years, always thinking about how you are doing outside. Now I will do it for the old man."
After seeing it, his soul in heaven can feel at ease. How about it, have you not left behind your blacksmithing skills?"
Huo Yutong chuckled: "Of course not. Uncle Tie, you don't know. Now my brother is a formal teacher in the academy. He mainly teaches the forging craft."
"Haha, that's a great relationship! If you can teach blacksmithing in the Soul Master Academy, then you are really promising! You can be considered a famous person!"
Looking at Tie Yong laughing loudly, Qian Chaoguang couldn't help but feel ripples in his heart.
Things are different and people are different, nothing more than this.
The blacksmith shop from back then is still there, and the clanging sound of forging has not stopped, but the person standing in that position is no longer the familiar person.
"Uncle Tie, do you have time at noon? How about we have a meal together? I heard that a new Taotie restaurant has opened in the city, and the food is surprisingly good."
The middle-aged man waved his hands repeatedly: "You should pull him down quickly. Uncle Tie, I don't have the time right now. I'll take it. No, I don't know what happened to the emperor recently. I just took one to forge a stomach for the army."
The big orders are coming in every day, and I’m so busy that I’m almost kicking my heels in the back of my head.”
Just as he was speaking, Tie Yong turned his head abruptly and immediately cursed: "You little bastard, put it down! Is the green gold iron forged like that? If you do that, it will be useless!"
Seeing this posture, Qian Chaoguang shook his head and laughed secretly.
This scene was so familiar. When he was learning blacksmithing, he had been taught this by Old Man Tie.
Seeing the bustling business in the blacksmith shop, Qian Chaoguang reached out and touched the storage belt hidden around his waist, and said: "Uncle Tie, you go about your business first, we won't disturb you for now, we will get together when we have time."
.After you’ve been busy for a while, you can’t refuse to show your favor again, can’t you?”
"sure!"
Tie Yong smiled on his face and began to swing the forging hammer in his hand.
What no one except Huo Yutong noticed was that just as Qian Chaoguang turned around, a golden light came out of his hand and landed steadily in the leather bag on Tie Yong's waist.
In the evening, when Tie Yong had finished his busy day and was sorting out the clutter and getting ready to go home and sleep, a small golden object in his pocket attracted his attention.
This is a golden token half the size of a palm.
Engraved on the front is a long knife with a shimmering cold light, embedded in silver metal and engraved with extremely superb techniques.
On the back is a blue-gold eye inlaid with azure stones, as deep as a star.
He scratched his bald head, took it out, and held it in his hand.
When he saw the material of the token clearly, Tie Yong covered his mouth and used all his strength to control it, so that he could not scream.
This token is actually made entirely of the finest sun gold.
What is that long sword with cold light and frost titanium that is so precious that it is priced in grams?
The fine cloud patterns around it are more gorgeous red spirit warm jade, which gives an extremely warm feeling when held in the hand.
Of course, the most important thing is not these, but the blue eye on the back of the token.
Isn't that large piece of flawless blue gemstone the most precious star sapphire among gemstones?
OMG...
Who is so extravagant and uses so many top-quality materials just to create this small token?
Tie Yong held the token and felt his hands trembling.
This is not only a token, this is also a top-notch storage soul guide!
Although Tie Yong is not a high-level soul master, as a great soul master, he can still recognize the storage soul guidance device.
He himself has a storage bracelet with one cubic meter of space inside, which Mr. Tie accidentally bought when he was young.
However, just such a golden little thing was enough to buy his entire blacksmith shop, even the land.
Tie Yong swallowed, quickly closed and locked the door of the blacksmith shop, and sat down against the door with the golden token.
When he poured his soul power into the token, he felt his heart beating violently, almost bursting out of his chest.
The 20 cubic meters of storage space inside almost didn't allow Tie Yong to use it at once.
Previously he estimated that it was less.
Is this enough to buy his blacksmith shop?
It’s enough to buy one street!
Tie Yong tried hard to calm down his mood before taking out the contents of the storage soul guide.
There aren't many things inside, only four items.
A thick book, with the cover saying: "The Spiritual Forging Method" - the original copy of the xxx library of xxx college.
Tie Yong looked hard for a long time under the light of the soul guide lamp, but he couldn't see what the erased writing on it was.
Two metal ingots that look like lapis lazuli but are not very similar.
The two pieces of metal read respectively - Thousand Forgings and Spiritual Forgings.
These two metal ingots, like this book, left Tie Yong a little confused.
So, he looked at the last thing.
The other object was a letter written on a metal plate, seemingly carved.
The letter is very short, only a few lines in total.
It reads: "In the Pixiu Soul Guidance Shop, Taotie Restaurant, and Taotie Hotel, show this soul guidance tool token to any steward and you will get a 50% discount on any consumption. If you have any difficulties, you can go to any Pixiu Soul Guidance Shop.
Taotie Restaurant, Taotie Hotel, and Pixiu Chamber of Commerce branch seek help in the same way."
That night, Tie Yong had a very rare insomnia.
In other words, he didn't even think about going to bed.
He stayed in the blacksmith shop all night and read the book "Animistic Blacksmithing".
The contents inside fascinated him deeply.
Until the time when the blacksmith shop opened in the morning, he was still a little confused and couldn't believe that everything that happened last night was true.
The golden soul tool token was hung around his neck, and from time to time he wanted to touch it to see if it was just a dream.
Whether it was the content written in the book or the two metal ingots he had seen, he was enlightened and seemed to have a completely new understanding of forging.
In the evening, when he was sent out from the splendid Pixiu Soul Guidance Store by the store manager on duty with an extremely warm smile, Tie Yong truly felt the meaning contained in this storage soul guidance device token.
huge energy.
To be able to have soul emperors and soul saint level powerhouses greet him with a smile and receive him with the highest standard of VIP treatment is simply something that he cannot even dream of.
After returning home, Tie Yong covered the token around his neck, as if he suddenly understood something.
His eyes were full of disbelief and disbelief, and he murmured in a low voice: "Chaoguang, Xiaotong, you have really made a name for yourself..."
"Crunch..."
In a residential area of Xingluo City, a courtyard door that had been sealed for six years was opened today.
The courtyard is not big and looks empty inside.
Except for a few stone locks and some large barbells carved from stone, there were no other furnishings in the courtyard.
The doors of several huts were still tightly closed, but the chains were covered with dust.
Everything is exactly the same as before I left.
Qian Chaoguang waved his hand gently, and a holy light cleaning technique swept out, and the entire courtyard suddenly took on a new look.
Whether inside or outside the house, all the dust was enveloped by this holy light, condensed into a small ball of earth, and thrown outside the door.
"Six years..."
Huo Yutong murmured, stepped forward slowly, and held the lock on his door.
Just when she took out her keys and was about to open the door and take a look, a noise on the roof suddenly attracted her attention.
It seemed to be a subtle clicking sound when the tiles were touched.
Just when the two of them looked up, a round, furry white head suddenly appeared.
This is a big white cat.
"Meow..."
Immediately afterwards, the tiles on the wall also began to rattle, which was much more obvious than the previous sound.
Another khaki head was also exposed. When he saw the two of them, he was stunned for a moment and let out a powerful "woof", showing full doubts.
But soon, its nose twitched, its eyes suddenly showed joy, howled loudly, and jumped down from the high wall.
While circling Qian Chaoguang, it wagged its tail happily. From time to time, it would raise its front paws and stick out its tongue, as if it wanted to rest on him.
Qian Chaoguang touched its head, took out a piece of cooked meat from the storage soul guide and stuffed it into its mouth.
"Dahuang, six years have passed and you are getting older, but you still like to lead Xiaobai over the wall."
The big white cat on the roof saw the rhubarb eating happily, hesitated for a moment, jumped down, and fell into Huo Yutong's arms.
Compared to dogs, as a cat, Xiaobai needs to be much more cautious.
After sniffing Huo Yutong for a long time, he finally determined that it was his old neighbor who had returned, and stretched out his soft little tongue to lick her.
Huo Yutong gently scratched the big white cat's chin, listening to the purring sound, and said with emotion: "Long time no see, Xiaobai, I'm afraid it's time to call you Dabai now."
This man has passed away, but his childhood animal friend is still alive in this world.
I have to say, this can be considered a kind of luck.
The appearance of Xiaobai and Dahuang finally brought back some happy memories in their hearts, dispelling a lot of depression for the two of them who had just felt sorry for Tie Lao's death.
Looking at the rhubarb devouring rhubarb and the snoring little white, Qian Chaoguang felt more emotional.
Animal life is shorter than human life.
Six years have passed, and time has left more obvious mottled marks on their bodies.
Next time I come here, I'm afraid they will turn into a pile of loess, right?
On the occasion of parting, a cat and a dog sat in the courtyard obediently, watching the two old friends Qian Chaoguang and Huo Yutong leave.
Qian Chaoguang smiled and shook his head.
With a flick of his finger, two strands of life energy imbued with his soul power entered the bodies of the two little guys, immediately making their vitality much more vigorous.
Extending someone's life is a difficult thing.
But if you want a small animal to live two more years, you can just snap your fingers.
I hope you two are still there when I come back next time.
Qian Chaoguang thought this, and closed the door of the small courtyard again and hung up a big lock.
...
Early the next morning, a cool breeze blew through this ancient city, bringing a new breath of life to the people living inside.
On a hill fifty miles northwest of Xingluo City, a group of three people were climbing towards the top of the mountain on foot.
This place is very close to the White Tiger Duke's Mansion and is one of the few hilly areas in the surrounding area.
Although the autumn wind is bleak, there is still a sense of vitality on this hill.
Under the clear blue sky, the entire hill is mainly golden yellow, dotted with a little bit of red and green. The intertwined three colors spread from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, and then spread to the surroundings.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Walking in the mountains, the morning dew rolls on the leaves, shining with the warm light cast by the sun.
"This is the place where you have lived since childhood..." Tall Qian Duoduo said with emotion as he pushed aside the dead branches blocking the road, "I never thought that you two would have such a life experience.
The famous White Tiger Duke's Mansion. If Dai Hao finds out then, I don't know what he will think."
Huo Yutong, who was usually lively in the past, was uncharacteristically dull today.
She said dullly: "No matter what he feels, it doesn't matter. From today on, my brother and I have nothing to do with the White Tiger Duke's lineage."
"Too."
Qian Duoduo stirred up his soul power again and swept away a few dead branches and leaves along a path where some traces could still be vaguely seen.
"Speaking of which, are you really not prepared to make the scene bigger? Chaoguang, your men and horses should not even be able to keep up with the white tiger bodyguard, right?"
Qian Chaoguang waved his hand: "Private matters should be handled privately. After all, Xiaotong and I have our identities here, and it will be embarrassing for both the college and Xingluo when it gets bigger. From my original intention, even if you come with us on this trip,
I disapprove of it, as it may bring a lot of trouble to the college."
Qian Duoduo snorted vigorously: "It's not troublesome, bullshit. Our Shrek tradition is to protect our shortcomings! You two are a member of the Poseidon Pavilion and the future master of the Poseidon Pavilion. If your status is not worthy of the academy, then
Aren’t we, Shrek, like wimps?”
[Recommended, Yeguo Reading is really useful. Download it here. yeguoyuedu. You can try it soon.]
"Besides, even if I don't have the relationship with the academy, as your teacher, it's only natural for me to accompany you. Even Xu Jiawei can't say anything."
"Why, I am a mighty Super Douluo, the first ninth-level soul master in the Three Kingdoms of Douluo. I still have problems accompanying my apprentice back home? Even if I admit that I am here to support you, what can he do?
What am I?"
"Okay, okay, no problem."
Listening to Qian Duoduo's aggressive and domineering words, Qian Chaoguang showed a helpless smile.
Regarding this return to the Duke's Mansion, Qian Chaoguang originally did not want to involve Shrek.
It's best to keep things private.
As mentioned before, we are currently in a sensitive period of confrontation with the Sun and Moon Empire.
The identities of the two brothers and sisters, as well as Dai Hao and the Duchess, are extremely sensitive, and they should do their best not to alarm too many people.
The Pixiu Chamber of Commerce is even worse.
If a group of soul masters were brought to seek revenge in a big way, wouldn't it be obvious to the Sun and Moon Empire that the Pixiu Chamber of Commerce has an inseparable relationship with Shrek?
All the hard work I put in previously was wasted.
But no matter what, as the two of them are important members of the Poseidon Pavilion, they must inform Mr. Xuan about matters that may affect the relationship between the two forces.
When Mr. Xuan learned about this incident, he did not stop him, nor did he ask too much to get to the bottom of it.
The old man just said three simple words: "When are you going? Do you need the college to come forward to support you? Do it with confidence and boldness, the college supports you in revenge."
In such a situation, of course there is no need for Shrek to come forward, and Qian Chaoguang does not want Shrek to come forward.
The feud belongs to Huo Yutong and the Duchess.
It makes sense for him to go together as a companion.
Qian Duoduo accompanied the two of them as their teacher, and he was considered a well-known teacher.
After exerting a lot of effort and finally rejecting the good intentions of many elders in Poseidon Pavilion, the master and disciple set off on their journey to Xingluo City.
Walking in the mountains, the brother and sister were extremely moved as they looked at the plants and trees that were once familiar but had somewhat changed their appearance.
Before entering Shrek, they spent a long time on this hill.
This is not only the place where they grew up, but also holds countless beautiful memories for them.
Even without using soul power, the three of them quickly reached the place they were looking for with their foot power.
From a distance, two stone tombstones that were not too tall but had square carvings appeared in their field of vision.
The tombstone is about one meter high and is carved from the most common bluestone.
The surrounding lush weeds almost completely covered the two tombs, as if no one had been there for a long time.
There are no unnecessary decorations, just a few lines of handwriting clearly written by two different carvers.
The tombstone on the left is slightly old.
It has been neglected and has some mottled marks after years of wind and sun.
Qian Chaoguang waved his right hand lightly, and countless holy flames spread out, burning away all the surrounding weeds, revealing the original appearance of the tomb.
Looking at the tombstone, Huo Yutong's eyes instantly became moist. She quickly took a few steps forward, and the handwriting on the tombstone appeared clearly in front of her eyes.
Huo Yun'er's Tomb - daughter, Huo Yutong.
This tombstone was carved by the old housekeeper for Huo Yun'er during his lifetime. The handwriting engraved on it is vigorous and powerful, but also smart and elegant.
Huo Yutong's eyes suddenly filled with mist, and he slowly knelt down in front of his mother's tomb.
Tears poured out uncontrollably.
She fell in front of her mother's tombstone and cried bitterly.
"Mom, Mom! I'm back and I'm here to see you!"
After being away for many years, she finally came back.
Over the years, in order to become stronger, she had forgotten all about food and sleep, and almost never rested.
She didn't even dare to think about what her mother was like when she was alive.
More than six years have passed, and she has grown from a young child to a soul saint-level powerhouse with twin martial souls, one of the elders of Poseidon Pavilion, and a famous figure on the mainland.
Compared with the past, it is completely different.
Huo Yutong's greatest wish has always been to avenge his mother and make the White Tiger Duke Dai Hao kneel down in front of his mother's grave to repent.
Today, she finally came back!
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The longing for my mother and the sadness in my heart keep pouring out, and the tears turn into endless threads, swaying in front of the mottled tombstone.
Qian Duoduo stepped forward, saluted each of the two tombstones, then squatted next to Huo Yutong and gently patted her back.
Not far to the right of Huo Yun'er's tomb, the handwriting on another tombstone looks a little childish, but it carries a certain unwillingness to believe.
Zhu Qichen's tomb - his grandson, Qian Chaoguang.
Qian Chaoguang stepped forward, took out the cloth and water from the heavy silver storage bracelet, carefully wiped off the mud on the tombstone, and then slightly polished it with coarse salt to make the entire tombstone brand new.
.
Then, he took out the cinnabar and brush he had prepared in advance and re-traced the handwriting on the tombstone.
I stretched out my hand again and found a few delicate green branches inserted on the grave, with a handful of chrysanthemums placed next to it.
After finishing all this, Qian Chaoguang respectfully knelt down in front of the tombstone and kowtowed three times.
Get up, kneel again, and kowtow again.
Get up again, kneel again, and kowtow again.
After the nine kowtows were completed, Qian Chaoguang did not stand up again this time, but knelt down in front of the grave in a dignified manner.
"Grandpa, my unfilial grandson is back to see you!"
Huo Yutong, accompanied by Qian Duoduo, was doing almost the same thing.
Visit the mother's grave and offer the sacrifices prepared in advance.
Qian Chaoguang took out a small and exquisite incense burner from the heavy silver bracelet, placed it safely in front of the tribute, and lit three sticks of incense respectfully.
"Grandpa, I'm back, and I've brought the little boy back with me. Now, the two of us have come together. Don't worry, everything is fine with us."
"We have lived up to your expectations. Not only did we enter Shrek Academy, we also entered Shrek's inner courtyard and became a member of the Poseidon Pavilion."
"The Pixiu Chamber of Commerce that I established has become one of the top chambers of commerce on Douluo Continent. It has hundreds of billions of wealth and is as rich as any country. You no longer have to worry about money."
"The spiritual blacksmithing method I created has become a required course for Shrek Soul Master. In the future, the blacksmith profession will surely become the top class in the mainland, alongside soul masters."
