However, although this mooncake is ordinary, it brings Xu Junming a long-lost Mid-Autumn Festival.
As I thought about it for a while, I felt a little more lonely in my heart.
Looking at the moon that has not yet gotten dark, I can’t wait to see it appear in the sky.
"I don't know if it is possible to go to the world of 'Journey to the West'? If it is possible, I must go to Guanghan Palace in person and let Chang'e of the Moon Palace dance for me."
There is a saying: It is disrespectful to come and not go back.
When you eat someone else's mooncakes, you always have to express yourself.
On August 15th, I extended an invitation to the Fu family and Xiao Hongge, the director of hanging mirrors, to enjoy the moon together. I prepared a few side dishes, brought a bottle of wine, and carried a food box. As the evening approached, I rang the door of the Feng family.
's courtyard gate.
Soon, footsteps came from far and near.
"Who is it?"
An old voice sounded.
"Feng Weng, I am your right neighbor."
With a "squeak" sound, the door opened, and an old man wearing a shabby ge robe, with his hair tied up in a bun, with an old face, but a dignified and solemn appearance appeared in front of him.
"My Excellency, Xu Junming, has met Feng Weng."
Xu Junming bowed his hand as a gift.
After Feng Quan examined the young man in front of him, a smile appeared on his face.
"Since a friendly neighbor is visiting, please come in quickly."
"Thank you."
Xu Junming stepped in and walked around the collapsed screen wall. On the right was a courtyard of about sixty or seventy square meters.
There are stone mills, firewood, shovels and other objects in the courtyard, which looks a bit messy.
Directly opposite are three tile-roofed houses. Because they have not been repaired for a long time, weeds have grown in the gaps between the tiles.
The dark brown doors and windows have lost their old appearance due to weathering and rain erosion. Many of the papers covering the windows are half broken.
No matter how you look at it, this is a humble residence belonging to the poor at the bottom of the feudal era.
"Dude!"
Feng Xiangru quickly stood up to greet him.
Xu Junming handed over his hands and glanced at the small table placed in the center of the yard.
Except for a few moon cakes, two vegetarian dishes, and two bowls of rice porridge mixed with wild vegetables, there was nothing else.
"Feng Weng, brother Xiangru, thanks to the kindness of the two of you who presented mooncakes yesterday, Xu also made a few side dishes and brought them over today. If you two don't mind, how about spending the full moon of the Mid-Autumn Festival with Xu today?"
After saying that, without waiting for the two of them to reply, he put down the food box and took out the food and wine inside.
One roast chicken, one plate of assorted meatballs, one plate of mixed vegetables, and one plate of braised beef.
The rich aroma of meat filled the air, instantly making Feng Xiangru salivate.
Feng Quan's determination was much stronger than his son's. Although he also wanted to eat, his expression didn't change much.
Put a pot of wine and three wine cups.
"Feng Weng, brother Xiangru, I'm studying alone next door. It's rare to have this festive occasion and I can spend it with you two. I hope you won't dislike it."
"What are you talking about, dear friend? It's a good night and it's time to spend it together." Feng Xiangru said quickly.
Noticing the looks in his son's and guest's eyes, Feng Quan nodded a little reservedly.
"The food is so rich, but my father and son only have a few mooncakes to give each other. It would be really uneasy to eat them."
"Feng Weng's words are wrong. Things are not about high or low, but about the amount of affection. Although the moon cakes of the Xian father and son are few, they are indeed made by their own hands and given to me. Their love is deep and meaningful."
"...Xu Mou bought this meal casually. The Xian father and son did not mind the smell of copper in it, but they just wanted to show Xu Mou's kindness... Come, I will fill this cup for you two."
Xu Junming picked up the wine flask, filled it and picked it up.
"Feng Weng, brother Xiangru, how about we drink this cup and celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival together?"
"What my dear friend said is true. Dad, let's drink this glass of wine together."
Feng Quan smiled and nodded, picked up the wine glass, and after the two touched it slightly, the three of them drank it all.
Feng Xiangru, who had long enjoyed the delicious food on the table, put down his wine glass and followed Xu Junming to pick up a piece of beef and put it into his mouth.
After three rounds of drinking.
"You are the same age as Xiangru, how about I call you my nephew?" Feng Quandao.
"It doesn't matter if Feng Wengdan calls."
Feng Quan nodded.
"Where is my nephew from? Why is he alone in Xiajiang City?"
"People from Qiaojia Village, Changshui County, Shangyang Prefecture, are staying in Xiajiang City to prepare for next year's provincial examination."
"It seems that your family background is pretty good. It only takes six or seven days to get here from Changshui County, so why not study at home?" Feng Quan continued.
"Xu's family is relatively well-off, but because he is devoted to fame, he has not married a wife. There are many admonitions from his parents at home, and I can't refute them, so I just made an excuse to come to Xiajiang City to hide in peace."
Feng Quan nodded and continued: "There is an old saying: There are three types of unfilial piety, and the greatest is not having an offspring. Although fame is important, the marriage should not be delayed too much."
"What Feng Weng said is true. She is just an ordinary woman, not in Xu's eyes. A rich girl with extraordinary appearance and knowledge is not something I can ask for now. I have no choice but to study more, and I just hope that I will be on the list in the provincial examination in the future.
, only then can you get your wish fulfilled if you become a civil servant."
Feng Quan glanced at him and said, "When a man marries a wife, he should focus on his talent and virtue. He must not compromise because of beauty. Otherwise, the family will be restless and there will be endless troubles."
"What Feng Weng said makes sense, please remember it... Come on, come on, eat, eat, this roast chicken won't taste good if it's cold."
Xu Junming greeted, it was a rare opportunity to blend in with ordinary people and talk about ordinary people's topics.
The long-lost feeling made him a little intoxicated.
It’s been a long time since I had the opportunity to put aside my spiritual practice and just talk about daily life.
So, the three of them chatted while eating, and it took a long time before it ended.
Feng Xiangru was already drunk because he rarely drank.
Feng Quan sent Xu Junming outside the door.
"Feng Weng, please go back. My house is not far away. I can just walk back by myself."
Feng Quan nodded.
"It's dark, so watch your step."
"I know. Feng Weng should go back to bed early."
Waving his hand, Xu Junming stepped on the bright moonlight and returned to his home.
As soon as I entered the house, before I could close the courtyard door, I suddenly heard the sound of tiles being touched.
"Um?"
Something moved in my heart.
After closing the courtyard door and stepping into the main room, he activated the Dantian Hutian magic talisman, and a small space quickly appeared around him, cutting off his breath and consciousness.
He walked out again and came to Feng's house.
I saw a big yellow-furred fox, cautious and fast as lightning, leaping from the roof. After landing on the roof of Feng's house, it first glanced at Xu Junming's courtyard. After there was no movement, it jumped down from the roof silently.
.
It fell to the ground silently.
In a flash of light, the big yellow-furred fox transformed into a beautiful woman wearing a red skirt, with her hair held high.
The woman stretched out her hand, and a food box appeared in her left palm.
I saw her calmly adjusting her clothes and then walked into Feng Xiangru's room.
"It's actually her!"
Xu Junming never expected that the red jade demon fox that he had not found at the beginning would actually show up under such circumstances.
Walking to the window, he watched this woman enter the house, undress Feng Xiangru, wash his feet, and help him get drunk into bed, just like a virtuous wife who loved her husband.
Moreover, it is not like the fox demon that Xu Junming thought, stealing the man's Yuanyang to practice. Instead, after settling Feng Xiangru, he moved a stool and looked at him with his chin on the side of the bed, with love in his eyes.
color.
"In Pu Songling's Liaozhai, most of the ghost foxes are loyal and infatuated people, and it seems that this ruby is too."
After activating the bronze mirror, not only was there no resentment in her body, but she also had some merit.
Xu Junming activated his magic power, and the space under his feet quickly expanded, quickly encompassing the entire room.
"who?"
Upon noticing the change, Hongyu's eyes suddenly became sharp, and a long yellow whip appeared in his hand.
"Squeak", accompanied by a hoarse friction sound, Xu Junming pushed the door open and entered.
Seeing the person coming, Hong Yu's face instantly showed a look of disbelief.
"It seems like you know me?"
"Hongyu pays homage to Master Chongshan."
He quickly pulled up his skirt as a gift, looking extremely respectful.
Glanced at it.
"What's your relationship with Feng Xiangru?"
"Little Fox just admires Mr. Feng's talents and is willing to serve him. He has no ill intentions and no intention of harming him. Please be aware of this."
With a 'pop' sound, he knelt down.
Xu Junming frowned.
"Get up and talk."
"yes."
"Do you know that all the big forces in the Xiajiang cultivation world are looking for you now?"
"Know."
"Do you know why you haven't left here yet?"
"Returning to the real person, Xiajiang City has a population of one million, and the aura of humanity is strong, which can obscure the calculation skills. Moreover, this is the place under the jurisdiction of the Xuanjing Division, and the various sects dare not act recklessly. Moreover, Xiajiang City is extremely huge, covering a vast area, and is hidden
It’s safer up there than in the mountains and forests outside.”
"You are quite smart."
With his level of Yi Gua, he could only calculate that she was in Xiajiang City. There were monks with higher levels of deduction than him, but there were definitely none in Xiajiang Province.
"The little demon is just a little clever, and can't compare to the earth-shattering and superb cultivation of a real person."
Seeing her cautious look, Xu Junming said calmly: "Although I hate evil, I will never kill innocent people indiscriminately. You have many merits and virtues, even though you are a monster, you are better than countless black-hearted humans. I will not kill you."
you."
Hongyu felt a little relieved after hearing this.
This master of Chongshan has a very high level of cultivation. He has also killed hundreds of demon clans in Daheng Mountain and beheaded the two kings of the Black Heart Demon Sect. He has gained a lot of fame through killing.
She couldn't help but not be afraid.
"But you should remember that there is a difference between a human and a monster. This Feng Xiangru is not a monk. If you marry him, your future will be unpredictable."
"Don't worry, real man. Hongyu is like a fallen flower. I will never dare to climb up to Mr. Feng. I will only wait for the opening of the Chongyang Cave to pass, and then I will hide in the mountains and concentrate on cultivation."
As he spoke, he patted the dharma bag on his waist, and a light blue jade talisman flew towards Xu Junming.
"At the beginning, the reason why the little fox stole this jade order from the Heavenly Wolf King was to avenge the death of my parents and brothers by it. Now that the enemy has been killed by the real person, the little fox has a low cultivation level and does not want to
I will venture to the Chongyang Cave and give this Chongyang Jade Order to the real person."
"You are very smart!"
He took the Chongyang Jade Order and played with it for a while. Although he already had a Jade Order in his hand and had no need for this one, there were many forces in the entire cultivation world who wanted this Jade Order.
By exchanging it, you can get a lot of things Xu Junming wants.
Put the jade order into the Taoist robe.
"You risked your life and death to get this Chongyang Jade Order. Even a poor man will not take it for nothing."
With a wave of his hand.
A jade slip, a jade bottle, and a red triangular flag flew in front of Hong Yu.
"The technique recorded in this jade slip is called 'Qingyang Secret Code'. I think you must be familiar with it."
Hongyu's face showed a hint of excitement.
Of course she knew about the 'Qingyang Secret Code', which was the main cultivation method of the Sirius King, and it was an immortal book that could be used to become an immortal after practicing to the peak.
"There are nine three-yellow elixirs in the jade bottle. After taking them, they can help you advance to the ninth level of the golden elixir."
"This red triangular flag is called the 'Vulcan Flag'. It is a spiritual weapon that fulfills the twelve spiritual prohibitions. It is also given to you."
"Thank you, real person."
Hongyu said quickly.
"It's just a fair transaction between you and me, there's no need to thank me."
After waving his hand, Xu Junming's figure gradually blurred.
"Remember what you said and don't make mistakes."
"Don't worry, real person, the little fox will never forget it."
Hongyu quickly bowed down. After a long time, she felt that Xu Junming's breath had disappeared, and then she dared to get up.
She took a long breath, looked at the treasure in her palm, and her pretty face showed joy. With this, her future path would be much smoother.
He turned around and looked at the drunk Feng Xiangru, with a gentle look on his face.
"Enemies, I'm afraid this is where our fate ends."
