Eight hundred and seventieth chapter old friends visit
"Uncle, come and see, who is here?!" As soon as he entered the gate of Yueyang Garden, Zhang Xiaozu happily shouted into the main hall.
Yueyang Garden now only lives in Huang Daonv and Wan Qingqiu, as well as Zhang Guangyao and Shen Wenjun. Zhou Jianlai and Niu Dawa have all moved out and each found a quiet courtyard to practice.
"Is the person named Qi here?" Wan Qingqiu heard Zhang Xiaopou's shout and thought it was Qi Wuwei who came, so he responded with resentment and anger.
Zhang Guangyao and Shen Wenjun, who were in the room with Huang Daonv, heard that Qi Wuwei was coming and quickly got up to greet him.
"Senior sister, if you have something to say, please speak it carefully and don't be so angry." Seeing Wan Qingqiu's cold face, Zhang Guangyao quickly persuaded him in a low voice before walking to open the door.
call--
The door opened, and the cold wind filled with snowflakes poured directly into the room, causing the temperature in the room to drop instantly.
The dull eyes of the Zodiac Girl suddenly gained some brightness, she looked at the door and murmured: "Is my grandson back?"
"It's your grandson who's back." Wan Qingqiu hurriedly responded, turning to look at Zodiac Girl with joy, thinking that she had regained consciousness, but saw that Zodiac Girl's eyes had become dull again.
"Hey——" Wan Qingqiu sighed sadly, feeling vaguely uneasy.
She found that the symptoms of Zodiac Girl's illness this time were obviously much more severe than before. Instead of getting better after a few days, they actually got worse. She was afraid that Zodiac Girl would remain sluggish like this and never wake up again.
"My nephew Qi Changkong has met his uncle and aunt."
"Haha, okay, okay, come in the house quickly, don't let the little baby freeze!"
The sound coming from the yard awoke Wan Qingqiu from her sadness and worry. When she heard Qi Changkong's voice, her eyes suddenly brightened, she stood up and walked excitedly to the door.
As soon as she arrived at the door, Qi Changkong walked into the house escorting Xi Qingqing and her son.
When Qi Changkong saw Wan Qingqiu, he immediately knelt on the ground with a plop, kowtowed and said: "It is a serious sin for an unfilial child to kowtow to my mother and make you worry and worry every day. Please punish me!"
Seeing this, Xi Qingqing hurriedly knelt in front of Wan Qingqiu with her child in her arms, and said nervously and timidly: "Daughter-in-law, Mrs. Xi, please pay homage to your mother-in-law and wish you longevity and health."
Although Qi Changkong kept telling her not to be nervous along the way, telling her that Wan Qingqiu was a kind-hearted elder who would never look down on or blame her, how could she not be nervous when she saw her mother-in-law for the first time? For just a moment, her forehead
I was sweating all over my body.
Coupled with the magnificence and splendor of the Guowei Mansion, she realized that Qi Changkong was not who he said he was at all. It was just that his family had a little money, and he was clearly a rich man with a noble status.
This made Xi Qingqing, an ordinary farm girl, even more stressed. She was increasingly afraid that her aristocratic mother-in-law would despise her, or even reject her and kick her out.
The only thing that gave her a little confidence was that she gave birth to a fat and white son to Qi Changkong.
In their village, as long as a daughter-in-law can give birth to a son, she can straighten her waist and even speak loudly to her mother-in-law without being scolded.
"Haha, senior sister, congratulations on becoming a grandma." Zhang Guangyao walked in and congratulated Wan Qingqiu.
Wan Qingqiu looked at Xi Qingqing and the child in her arms. He was stunned for a while before he realized what he was doing. He looked at Qi Changkong and asked, "Are you married?"
Qi Changkong hummed guiltily and did not dare to look up at Wan Qingqiu.
"Is this the wife you married?" Wan Qingqiu asked again.
"Her name is Xi Qingqing. She is from Penglai. Her ancestors were all simple farmers and her identity is innocent."
Since the Penglai Kingdom and Dasu were at odds with each other and wars broke out from time to time, Qi Changkong gave a very detailed answer, implying that Xi Qingqing was not a spy.
"Is this your child?" Wan Qingqiu asked again, his voice suddenly raised a little, and he seemed a little angry.
When Qi Changkong heard the change in Wan Qingqiu's voice, he couldn't help but feel a thump in his heart, and quickly replied: "It's a boy, his name is Qi Maomao. Maomao is good, please call me grandma."
He was playing a trick, trying to please Wan Qingqiu and offset her anger.
Unexpectedly, Wan Qingqiu suddenly raised his foot and kicked Qi Changkong on the chest, sending him flying out and falling into the yard with a bang.
It shocked everyone.
"You bastard!" Wan Qingqiu scolded angrily with a cold face, "With the same moral character as your ruthless father, he still takes his wife and children around in the snow, and he doesn't care about anyone at all."
After scolding, he bent down to help Xi Qingqing, and his tone suddenly became kind: "Good girl, get up quickly."
Xi Qingqing was a little frightened. Wan Qingqiu helped her with both hands, and her body shivered in fear.
Wan Qingqiu felt Xi Qingqing's fear, and explained with a smile: "Don't be afraid, I blame that brat for leading you and your mother to run around in the cold weather. I don't know how to feel sorry for him, so I kicked him to save you and your mother."
Take it out."
"Brother Kong knows how to care about people. He has been protecting us and us all the way, and he has not let us get a bit of cold wind. You...you must not blame him." Xi Qingqing boldly told Qi Changkong.
Good words.
Wan Qingqiu said coldly: "Let him stand in the yard and reflect. His skin is rough and his flesh is thick, and he will not freeze to death."
Hearing Wan Qingqiu's firm tone, Xi Qingqing did not dare to say anything more.
"Wow -" Qi Maomao suddenly curled up and started crying.
"Are you hungry? Do you have milk or water?" Wan Qingqiu asked Xi Qingqing.
Xi Qingqing blushed and hummed.
"Ahem...I'll be out for a while." Zhang Guangyao left quickly.
Wan Qingqiu took Xi Qingqing to the back room and fed Qi Maomao.
"Whose child is crying?" Huang Daonv's dull eyes suddenly became bright, and Qi Maomao's cry awakened her mind.
Shen Wenjun was overjoyed when he saw this and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Mother-in-law, this is the second son of my senior sister's family. Changkong's nephew's baby is crying."
"Where is the baby? Come and take a look." Huang Daonv thought for a moment, and after realizing who Qi Changkong was, she immediately stood up happily and couldn't wait to see the baby.
"I'm breastfeeding in the back room. I'll take you there." Shen Wenjun helped Zodiac Girl towards the back room.
In the yard, Qi Changkong had a wry smile on his face, got up and shook the snow off his body. He rushed over to Zhang Xiaopou and asked, "Did my mother quarrel with my father again?"
He felt that he was kicked by his father.
"I don't know." Zhang Xiaozu shook his head and asked, "Are you hungry?"
"I'm almost hungry. Go find something for me to eat. Do you have any wine? Give me a sip first. I feel like my bones are frozen."
Not to mention being cold and hungry, it was okay. When he mentioned it, Qi Changkong immediately shrank his neck and started to tremble.
During this long journey, he was worried that his true energy would not be enough, so he only used his true energy to protect his wife and children. He himself had to bear the cold wind and heavy snow. Even though he was strong, it would still be difficult for him after a long time.
anti.
Zhang Xiaozu took out a pill bottle from Xumi mustard seeds and handed it to Qi Changkong.
Qi Changkong took the elixir bottle, uncorked it and saw that it contained the Yuanshi Golden elixir. He couldn't help but be overjoyed, hurriedly poured out one pill and drank it, then capped the elixir bottle and handed it back to Zhang Xiaozu.
"You can keep it for use, I still have it." Zhang Xiaozu waved his hand.
"Okay, boy, I'm going to use the Yuanshi Golden Pill. I haven't seen you for a few years and you've made a fortune." Qi Changkong said in surprise.
Zhang Xiaozhu raised his finger and pointed at the sack he placed next to the main hall door, and said: "There are a lot of Yuanshi Golden Pills in that sack, as well as many other good things. I killed people and robbed them on the street not long ago. Second brother, if you
If you don’t mind it, just use it.”
Qi Changkong's eyelids jumped when he heard this.
"You bastard, come in and kowtow to your master!" Wan Qingqiu's voice came from the room.
"Here we come." Qi Changkong responded quickly, stopped being polite to Zhang Xiaozu, put the elixir bottle in his arms, and walked towards the main hall.
Zhang Xiaozu followed him in to greet the zodiac girl.
Qi Maomao was being held by the zodiac girl, and Shen Wenjun and the three girls were surrounding her, vying to tease her, and they seemed to have become the center of attention.
Zhang Xiaozu walked closer and wanted to lean over and tease him, but he never thought that as soon as his eyes fell on his face, the little guy started giggling with joy.
The four girls of the Zodiac were greatly surprised, because they had been teasing the little guy for so long, and the little guy seemed to be in awe and kept a serious face.
"Zi'er, you're so proud. We've been laughing together for so long, but he didn't even smile. As soon as you came here, you didn't do anything, and this guy started laughing." Huang Daonv joked.
"Grandma, are you sure he didn't laugh because he thought I looked funny?"
"Haha..." Everyone was amused by Zhang Xiaopou's words.
Zhang Xiaozhu pinched his chin, stared at the cheerful little guy, thought for a while, and said: "Boy, I think your bones are amazing and are a good material for martial arts. Uncle, I have a peerless martial arts here. Do you want to learn it?"
?”
"That's a good relationship." Qi Changkong responded, "Maomao, thank you uncle quickly."
I just don’t know, what would he think if he knew that the peerless martial arts Zhang Xiaozu mentioned was the "Ancient Divine Refining Technique" and what kind of martial art the "Ancient Divine Refining Technique" was?
Of course, Zhang Xiaozu was just joking.
He took out a small jade bead from Sumeru mustard seeds, stuffed it into the little guy's open hand, and said with a smile: "Just because I smile at you, my uncle will give you a gift."
This bead is blessed with nine levels of meditation and healing talismans, which is definitely a great gift. "Qiu'er, go find a red string to string it on and tie it around his wrist to prevent him from stuffing it into his mouth." Huangdao
The woman ordered.
Qi Maomao's arrival was a surprise, which diluted some of the sadness of Butcher Zhang's death and made the atmosphere in Guowei Mansion a little more lively.
Zhang Xiaozu knew that Butcher Zhang was not dead, but he could not tell everyone the truth, so he could only sigh helplessly.
Twenty-four, young year.
Zhang Xiaozu woke everyone up from practicing, and they all sat together and had a lively dinner. After the meal, everyone chatted briefly for a while and then devoted themselves to practicing again.
Zhang Xiaozhu felt extremely guilty, feeling that he had made everyone so nervous that they couldn't even celebrate the New Year, but there was nothing he could do.
After Shen Wenze fled in despair, there has been no movement from the Shen family. Zhang Xiaozu knew that this was the calm before the storm.
He is waiting for his feedback on the Shen family's wanted order.
He didn't believe that the Shen family was really that terrible. No one in Jiuzhou dared to touch the Shen family.
If no one dares to touch the Shen family, then he will continue to increase the reward, and there will always be people who are not afraid of death to step forward.
The twenty-ninth day of the twelfth lunar month.
The feedback Zhang Xiaozu was waiting for finally came.
A mysterious cultivator wearing a black robe and a mask covering his face came to the door of Guowei Mansion carrying a body of the Shen family.
When Zhang Xiaozu heard the news, he immediately put down his practice and went out to greet him.
The man in black robe refused Zhang Xiaozhu's invitation to come to the house for tea, and made a deal with Zhang Xiaozhu at the door of the house.
He said that the Shen family he killed was in the fifth heaven realm, so Zhang Xiaozu readily took out fifty star pills in exchange for him.
As if to confirm that Zhang Xiaozu was not talking nonsense, the man in black robe actually threw ten corpses of the Shen family from the void space and reported their cultivation levels one by one.
There are actually two star realm experts among them.
Zhang Xiaozu inspected the corpses one by one. Although these people were dead and their true energy and star power had dissipated, some traces of their previous cultivation realms would remain in the dead air sea.
After confirming that the man in black robe was not lying, Zhang Xiaozu readily took out 600 star pills and gave them to the man in black robe.
He deliberately counted ten pills slowly, so that the people hiding around who wanted to assassinate him could see clearly how valuable the Shen family was.
Zhang Xiaopou's method was very effective. The killers hiding around looked at the tall pile of shining star pills, all of them breathed quickly and their eyes turned red.
"Brother, please stay for a moment." Zhang Xiaopou stopped the man in black robe who was turning to leave.
"Is something wrong?!" The man in black robe jumped back warily.
"I have a good thing, and I want my brother to help me control the eyes." Zhang Xiaozu said, raising his hand and throwing a jade pendant towards the man in black robe.
The man in black robe was very careful. He first used the power of the stars to wrap the jade pendant. After careful inspection and confirming that the jade pendant was harmless, he took the jade pendant into his hand, but still wrapped it with the power of the stars.
After a while, he looked at Zhang Xiaozu and asked, "Are you selling this jade pendant?"
Zhang Xiaozu shook his head.
But the man in black robe still quoted a price: "Five hundred star pills."
When the people hiding around heard the price quoted by the man in black robe, they were all shocked and speechless. They couldn't help but wonder what kind of treasure Zhang Xiaozhu's jade pendant was that could make the man in black robe buy it at such a high price.
But what shocked them even more was that Zhang Xiaozu shook his head and rejected the attractive price offered by the man in black robe.
"Eight hundred...eight hundred and fifty star pills." The man in black robe was silent for a moment, and then quoted a shocking price.
"One thousand, if one pill is missing, I won't sell it," Zhang Xiaopou said.
"What a pity." The man in black robe shook his head in disappointment, threw the jade pendant back to Zhang Xiaopou, and then left in the air.
Zhang Xiaozu walked down the stone steps in front of the door, hung the jade pendant on the stone lion of the town house at the door, and then shouted in all directions: "This jade pendant can nourish the soul. Friends who are interested can come and help me estimate the price.
Let’s see if it’s worth a thousand star pills.
However, I’m going to tell you something ugly ahead of you, you can only hold it in your hand and feel it, you can’t take it away, otherwise I guarantee you won’t survive.”
Whoosh!
As soon as Zhang Xiaozu finished speaking, a flying sword shot from the southern sky.
The flying sword fell in front of the Guowei Mansion and turned into a swordsman.
Everyone stared at the swordsman with a look of horror, because only by reaching the supreme state of man and sword uniting can one turn into a sword and fly.
"Brother Qin, long time no see!" Zhang Xiaozu was shocked and recognized the person who was coming. He was Qin Xingjian, the descendant of the Qin family, and he held his hand in salute.
"Long time no see, Brother Zhang." Qin Xingjian bowed his hand in return, and then asked straight to the point: "Is Zhou Jianlai living in your mansion? I'm here to pick up the sword of the ancestor of the Qin family, the Sword of Light."
