Chapter 377: I hope you'll be well too

Ten days later, Master Qijun and his disciples did not come to the top of the mountain, so Master Qicheng and Songyue set off to return to the sect.

When the first snow fell, Master Qijun and his disciples still hadn't reached the top of the mountain.

Xia Yu sent the message home several times, and Shi Xiaoliu also sent the message to Wanyu.

When Xia Yu received the news from home, he seemed very silent.

Wanyu replied to Shi Xiaoliu's message, saying that she and Master Qijun would still come to see the three of them, but they really didn't have time recently.

Shi Xiaoliu therefore sent a message to his eldest and second brothers, asking about their current situation.

The eldest senior brother replied to Shi Xiaoliu's message, saying that he has really gotten better recently.

The second senior brother implicitly told Shi Xiaoliu that when he had the chance, he should still make some ointment for use.

After Shi Zelan heard the news relayed by Shi Xiaoliu, she asked Xia Yu with concern: "Xia Yu, is there something wrong with your family?"

Xia Yu shook her head. After Shi Zelan and Shi Xiaoliu exchanged glances, Shi Xiaoliu said to Xia Yu, "Xia Yu, do you want me to accompany you back to the sect?"

Xia Yu quickly shook his head and said, “No need.

The last time my uncle told me that there was some movement in the place where my grandmother was in seclusion, I thought that my grandmother was about to come out. ”

After Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan heard what Xia Yu said, Shi Xiaoliu said to Xia Yu: "It will come naturally. I think your grandmother will be very smooth when she leaves the country."

Shi Zelan nodded vigorously: "Xia Yu, if you really miss your family.

Next time your uncle comes to see you, you can go back home with him. We are here to take care of you. ”

Xia Yu still shook his head and said, "I just returned to the sect. Everyone in my family is busy with their own things."

Shi Xiaoliu listened to Xia Yu's words and said after a while: "When they are free, they will definitely accompany you."

"Yes, but I don't want them to miss their meditation practice because of accompanying me."

Shi Zelan looked at him and said, "No, when my master was with me before, I asked him if I would waste his time.

My master said that he was actually very happy to be with me and it was very beneficial to his practice. ”

Xia Yu turned to look at Shi Zelan: "Did your master really say that?"

Shi Zelan nodded affirmatively: "You can ask Xiaoliu, when I was young, my master would care about my cultivation and comfort and encourage me.

My master has always thought that I was the cutest, smartest and most clever child. ”

Shi Xiaoliu nodded towards Xia Yu: "Master is especially gentle to Lan Jie'er, and he also takes good care of me."

Xia Yu's mood improved, and he said with a smile: "If I go back, my grandfather will also care about my cultivation progress and my life situation."

Xia Yu's mood improved, and Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan took him to collect leaves.

It’s just that they picked too many last year, so there are much fewer leaves this year.

They also went to Yangzhou Prefecture and heard that the novel writer in the Nancheng Teahouse now only gave three afternoon shows a month.

Shi Xiaoliu and the other two therefore went to a vegetarian restaurant, where they were greeted by the new waiter.

When they left, they also packed up several portions of vegetarian dishes and more than a dozen rice cakes.

They left the vegetarian restaurant and looked back to see the boy who had delivered the food to the restaurant. He was also a strange face.

After Shi Xiaoliu and the other two left the city gate, they walked back on foot.

When the carriage passed by them, they moved to the side of the road. After the carriage went away, they walked to the middle of the official road.

They were walking on the road in a good mood at the moment. Occasionally, when they met people coming from the opposite direction, the three of them would politely step aside.

"Yangzhou Prefecture no longer has the same appeal to me as before."

Shi Xiaoliu still sighed with emotion, and Shi Zelan and Xia Yu had the same feeling.

“Yes, we don’t know where the people we knew before have gone.

I don't want to be treated as a newcomer every time I go to an old place. ”

In fact, if they asked the people at the vegetarian restaurant, they might be able to get some information about them.

The three of them returned to the top of the mountain, and the day passed like this.

Two days later, the three of them discussed going to Yangzhou Prefecture to join in the fun during the New Year.

In the snowy winter weather, they built a fire in the open space, and the three of them sat under the eaves and talked.

At the foot of the mountain, someone was talking. After Shi Xiaoliu and the other two listened for a while, they shook their heads at the same time and said, "Why bother?"

At the foot of the mountain, a group of people gathered around the Taoist priest and said, "Sir, please take a good look at the Feng Shui of this area. My grandfather is seriously ill now.

The old man only misses this mountain. ”

The Taoist priest walked around the foot of the mountain several times with a compass, then shook his head and said to the person who invited him, "No, this place is not good for our descendants."

“What about the mountain?

With such a large mountain range, there must be some place that will benefit future generations, right? ”

The Taoist priest and the group of people went up the mountain. Shi Xiaoliu and the other two stood by the mountain to watch the fun. After seeing the Taoist priest go down the mountain, they said to the people who invited him, "No, not on this mountain.

If you don't believe it, please find someone else. Anyway, I won't take this job. ”

The Taoist priest took the money for the carriage and headed straight for the official road. As he walked, he turned back and said to the group of people, "Listen to my advice. Invite people to come and see this mountain again after a hundred years."

The alchemist went to the official road and soon left in a carriage.

The group of people gathered at the foot of the mountain to discuss: "Grandpa has worked hard all his life, and he just has this idea.

Should we ask someone else to take a look at the Feng Shui? ”

"No, I heard from the people next door that the elders in Liujia Village also asked a Taoist priest to take a look, and he also said that this piece of mountain is not good for future generations.

You guys should go back and discuss it again, and have a good talk with the old man, he also wishes you the best. ”

"Let's go, the snow is getting heavier.

Let's go back early and have a good talk with the old man. Maybe he can survive this winter. ”

After Shi Xiaoliu and the other two stood at the edge of the mountain and watched for a long time, they all shook their heads at the same time.

They returned to the eaves and sat down. Shi Xiaoliu said to Shi Zelan and Xia Yu, "Let's go to the mountain and pick up some dead branches in a few days."

"Okay, then we can only go deep into the mountains. There are no dead branches to pick up in the nearby forests."

"Okay, let's go a little further."

"Let's go to the bottom of the valley in a couple of days. In this weather, there shouldn't be anyone living there, right?"

"It's hard to say. I went there a few days ago and saw someone warming himself by a fire in a cave. It looked like they were going to stay there for a long time."

“Is he the one who collects herbs?”

"Not really. He seems to be from a village nearby."

"You've come to live in the valley at this time. I'm afraid your family is having a hard time."

"Life in the valley is not easy either. It's snowing and it's even colder in the valley than outside."
