Hearing this.
The old village chief and Liu Yan were slightly shocked, and both looked at the expressionless Lu Nanzhuo in confusion.
Seeing the two people looking at him in confusion, Lu Nanzhuo suddenly smiled and said softly, "I'm just guessing."
Liu Yan's eyes flickered. She felt something was wrong, but she couldn't put her finger on it.
The old village chief smiled faintly and said, "Whether you've forgotten or not, it's true that that man saved our ancestors ten thousand years ago. If not, how could we be where we are today? Ten thousand years have passed, and after countless generations, we have long since let it go."
Seeing that the old village chief was so open-minded despite his advanced age, Lu Nan's eyes were as bright as stars, filled with relief.
After a moment of hesitation, he asked calmly, "You guys really don't want to go out?"
Upon hearing this, Liu Yan also looked at the old village chief. Yes, she felt that they were too miserable!
Our ancestors were placed here from the beginning, and it has been thousands of years since the beginning.
If it were her, she would go crazy.
"Oh no, in this quiet valley village, we work from sunrise to sunset, sow in spring and harvest in autumn. We're used to it."
As he spoke, the old village chief looked at the little ones peeking through the window. A happy smile appeared on his face. He continued, "Isn't this another kind of comfort?"
Lu Nanzhuo looked at the happy smile on the old village chief's face and suddenly said softly, "Father-in-law, can you take me to your ancestral hall?"
The old village chief was a little confused when he heard this, but seeing Lu Nanzhuo's calm eyes, he nodded and agreed: "You guys come with me."
After the old village chief finished speaking, he stood up and walked out of the house with his cane. When he opened the door, the little guys who were sneaking around the window scattered.
"You playful little bastards! You'll be spanked by your parents soon!"
The old village chief scolded and laughed at the group of children.
"Lululu~ The village chief grandpa wouldn't do that~"
The little guys made faces at him, looked at Lu Nanzhuo and the others strangely, made faces as well, and then ran away laughing.
"I'm sorry, both of you, these little bastards, hahaha, cough cough." The old village chief wanted to apologize to Lu Nanzhuo, but suddenly he laughed while speaking.
Lu Nanzhuo's lips curled slightly: "Nothing, old man, let's go."
Tanimura Ancestral Hall.
The old village chief looked at the densely packed simple spirit tablets on the altar and sighed softly.
Tap tap tap, the sound of footsteps could be heard.
Lu Nanzhuo suddenly walked slowly to the altar and, in front of Liu Yan's stunned gaze, bowed gently towards it.
Liu Yan covered her mouth in shock, feeling like she was dreaming. She had never seen such a powerful young man bend down to anyone!
What are you doing, sir?
The old village chief was also shocked. He didn't understand what the young man meant, so he quickly stretched out his left hand to help him up.
“You you.”
Lu Nanzhuo stood up and shook his head slightly at the old village chief without explaining. Then he looked intently at the spirit tablet on the altar and whispered in his heart:
I apologize to everyone on behalf of Xuan Zhan.
Xuan Zhan died, and although it cannot be said that he broke his promise, he put you here, and ultimately wasted ten thousand years of your time!
As his master, I should apologize on his behalf.
If Xuan Zhan had not died here, he would have been terrified!
The Great Master has roamed the world for tens of thousands of years, when has he ever bent his waist?
As proud as he is, when has he ever apologized to others?
But now, it's for him.
A moment later,
Lu Nanzhuo put his hands behind his back again, changed the subject, and asked quietly, "Father-in-law, can we stay in Gu Village for a day?"
The old village chief looked at Lu Nanzhuo deeply, his old face lightened up, and he smiled and said, "Okay!"
The night takes advantage of the daytime when it is sleepy and not paying attention, drives it away and successfully takes over the sky.
Tonight, the valley village is less quiet than usual and is particularly lively.
The villagers sat around a huge bonfire, talking and laughing, and the little ones were playing and chasing each other.
From time to time, the sound of villagers scolding naughty children can be heard, which makes the scene even more heartwarming.
Liu Yan smiled lazily and slightly tied her hair. She hadn't felt so relaxed in a long time.
Even Lu Nanzhuo, who was sitting on the ground, had a slight smile on his face.
The burning bonfire illuminated every smiling face.
One little fellow even mustered up the courage to approach Lu Nanzhuo. Seeing that Lu Nanzhuo had a kind face, he did not resist and tugged at his sleeve. Of course, the little fellow was unable to pull it away.
Lu Nanzhuo had no choice but to stand up slowly.
Then he let the little guy pull his sleeves and run around the campfire.
Liu Yan was stunned, then covered her mouth and laughed. Even a strong man like the young master couldn't do anything to these little guys!
Then I stared at it and was stunned.
The young master actually has such a down-to-earth personality.
Seeing that one wasn't enough, the old village chief even went up to pull Lu Nanzhuo's sleeves and play with him. He quickly stood up and shouted,
"You little bastards, why don't you let go of the guest's clothes? You'll tear them soon!"
When the little guys heard this, they quickly let go of Lu Nanzhuo's sleeves, made faces at the old village chief, and ran away.
If these kids knew that they had played with the Great Master by pulling his sleeves, they would brag about it for the rest of their lives.
Lu Nanzhuo adjusted his sleeves slightly, looked at the old village chief and said calmly, "It's okay, old man."
The old village chief smiled when he heard this, and the villagers next to him gradually became more friendly as they looked at Lu Nanzhuo, a stranger from outside.
The next day.
The old village chief and the villagers saw them off at the entrance of Gu Village.
Lu Nanzhuo looked at them, pondered for a moment, and a square box appeared in his palm.
He handed it to the old village chief.
"Father, keep this."
The old village chief frowned in confusion, leaned on his cane in his right hand, and took it with his left hand.
"This is a longevity pill that can extend your life by ten years. Just take it with tea." Lu Nanzhuo continued softly, "I'll come to visit you next time I have the chance."
Then he turned around and walked out.
Liu Yan smiled and nodded at everyone, then turned around and jogged after them.
"Big brother, big sister, goodbye!"
The little ones jumped and waved at the backs of Lu Nanzhuo and Liu Yan and shouted.
They soon saw the so-called big brother they were talking about raised his right hand with his back to them and waved it lightly in response.
Then, Lu Nanzhuo and Liu Yan's figures passed through the formation and disappeared in everyone's sight.
The old village chief looked down at the square box in his hand and motioned to the villagers next to him. The villagers hurried over, took the walking stick, and supported the old village chief.
The old village chief slowly opened the mini square box with both hands, and five exquisitely crafted pills lay quietly inside.
Thinking of Lu Nanzhuo's words just now, he murmured softly: "The longevity pill lasts ten years."
His lifespan was almost over.
The old village chief gently closed the square box, his old face wrinkled slightly. He looked towards the place where Lu Nanzhuo disappeared, and bowed to the villagers.
Then he smiled lovingly at the little ones and said, "Little bastards, the village chief will watch you grow up!"
The children scratched their heads and asked, "Grandpa Village Chief, what are you talking about?"
Only the villagers had slightly red eyes.
They knew what it meant to increase their lifespan by ten years.
