Ye Xiaotian left Anfu, and immediately rushed to his residence at a brisk pace. At this time, the sky was dim, and there were not many pedestrians on the road. In order to hurry back as soon as possible, Ye Xiaotian took the mountain path, and there were even fewer pedestrians, but every now and then, he would meet someone who was jogging in the morning.
Ye Xiaotian passed one, and then another, running faster and faster. An old man who ran in the morning caught up and reminded him kindly: "Young man, you should run at a constant and slow speed in the morning. You won't be able to run very far like this."
The corner of Ye Xiaotian's mouth twitched, and he said with a dry smile: "Thank you, old man, I have something urgent to hurry, not a morning run."
Ye Xiaotian quickened his pace and quickly got rid of the old man. At this time, the curling morning mist is still rippling on the grass dust, and he is about to rush to his residence, from here he can already see the house half hidden in the white mist, Ye Xiaotian suddenly saw winter.
With his back bent and a bamboo stick, Dong walked slowly from a fork in the road, looking around and shouting from time to time: "Xiaotian, where are you?"
Ye Xiaotian hastily stepped forward to meet him, and when he got closer, he saw that Dongdong's hair and shoulders were wet with dew, and he looked like he hadn't slept all night and was always looking for him, Ye Xiaotian couldn't help feeling ashamed and ashamed .
As far as he is concerned, he is who he is. Even though he has become the Gu Sect Venerable worshiped by hundreds of thousands of living seedlings, he left the Gu Sect to travel around the world as soon as he became a Venerable, and he did not feel the feeling of being superior and taking life and death at all.
Although he became a scholar and promoted people from time to time, his family is not here. He has not yet enjoyed the glory of being in the village and being revered by the local government, nor has he enjoyed the honor that the local officials always invite the local gentry to discuss with them whenever they have a political policy. Therefore, He kept more of his true colors.
This makes him often ignore that he is already an important person, he has a group of followers, and it is relatively casual to come and go, otherwise, since he was left to drink by Zhao Wenyuan yesterday, he would definitely ask Zhao Wenyuan to send someone to inform his family. Instead of getting drunk.
Now, because he didn't return all night, he even ran out to search for the whole night in winter. It can be seen how much uneasiness his "disappearance" caused to his brothers and subordinates. Seeing Dong Dong's appearance, Ye Xiaotian felt ashamed and couldn't speak for a while.
Dong Dong squinted his eyes and said to Ye Xiaotian: "Excuse me, please let me go."
Ye Xiaotian's mood was agitated, and he suddenly opened his arms and hugged him: "Elder Dong, I'm really sorry, I...I didn't come back from drinking with others last night, and I forgot to inform my family. Your eyesight is not good, so you have to come out and look for me." , I'm really sorry!"
Ye Xiaotian opened his arms and hugged him, Dongdong was startled, a small porcelain bottle had already popped into his palm, even the cork was pulled out, suddenly heard Ye Xiaotian's voice, Dongdong was overjoyed, with a flick of his palm, the porcelain bottle disappeared again.
Dong Dong said happily: "Ah! Venerable, this subordinate finally found you!"
Ye Xiaotian couldn't help being a little dumbfounded when he heard it, and thought: "Who can you find with just your eyes, obviously I found you..."
After Dong Dong finished speaking, he suddenly remembered Ye Xiaotian's address just now, and hurriedly corrected him: "Your Honor, a subordinate is not an elder, and your Honor must never call him that."
Ye Xiaotian let go of him, and said with a smile: "Sooner or later, it will be so, let's call it first, so as not to get used to it."
Dong Dong had long been accustomed to Ye Xiaotian's unruly behavior, so he smiled helplessly. Ye Xiaotian said again: "Where are Yunfei and Wenzhi, even you have come out, so they must be looking for me too?"
Dong Dong said: "Yes! I didn't see the Venerable coming back in the evening, so Yunfei went to the car and horse dealer to look for you. The car and horse dealer didn't know where you went. When the Venerable didn't come back at night, we were very anxious, so we thought Let Wenzhi guard Yaoyao, and we went out to look for it. But Wenzhi refused, and Yaoyao also wanted to find you, so we split up. However, we reckoned that if the venerable has something urgent to return, he should come back at dawn, so we have already Make an appointment to go back at this time."
Ye Xiaotian felt relieved, and said: "Okay, then let's go back quickly."
The two rushed back to the front of the house, and saw Mao Wenzhi sitting in front of the courtyard door wiping the sweat from his forehead. Ye Xiaotian was both moved and amused, thinking to himself: "This guy has a heart, but he still has a lot of money." I know move the chair out."
Ye Xiaotian took a closer look, only to find that Fuwa was sitting under Mao Wenzhi's butt. When Mao Wenzhi saw Ye Xiaotian, he immediately jumped up and said happily: "Brother, you are back, where are you going, we have been looking for you all night."
Fu Wa'er also jumped over joyfully, her big head arched towards Ye Xiaotian affectionately. Ye Xiaotian stroked Fu Wa'er's big hairy head, and apologized to Mao Wenzhi: "I'm really sorry, I ran into an acquaintance last night..."
Mao Wenzhi saw Dong in a blink of an eye, and cried out in a fuss: "Oh my god, so many of us didn't find the eldest brother, but you blind man found it. Do you think it's nonsense!" His temper became a bit dull, but he didn't like to hear such words, and his face immediately became a little ugly.
Ye Xiaotian's face sank slightly, he tugged Mao Wenzhi's sleeve, pulled him aside, and said in a low voice: "Old Mao, don't keep bluffing, I know you have no malicious intentions, you say this to show your closeness , but who wants to be brought up with their flaws?"
Mao Wenzhi scratched the back of his head, and said calmly: "Well, I know, I will definitely not talk about it in the future."
Ye Xiaotian said again: "Also, although Fuwa'er has some intelligence, he is not as good as us human beings after all. If you use it as a chair, it may be a very fun game for it, but Yaoyao regards Fuwa'er as a good sister." Yes, do you think she will be angry when she sees it?"
Mao Wenzhi continued to scratch the back of his head, and said, "Yeah! I got it. By the way, big brother, is this lucky baby the mother's?"
Ye Xiaotian was stunned, and said: "I really haven't noticed it, maybe it's the public's."
Mao Wenzhi said: "Then Yaoyao can't be regarded as a sister, but can only be regarded as a brother."
Ye Xiaotian said helplessly: "What about brothers? What about sisters? Does this have anything to do with what I told you?"
Mao asked Zhi, "Why doesn't it matter? Big brother, you just said sisters, but if it's male, then it's not sisters."
Ye Xiaotian grabbed Mao Wenzhi by the collar, and said angrily: "Don't you understand the point of what I said? Am I talking about brothers and sisters? I mean, you have to consider others when you speak and act. I may not care about your carefree nature, but others may not care, do you understand it?"
Mao Wenzhi said with an innocent face: "Brother, I understand! But if you don't care, what are you doing? You're almost killing me, can't we have something to say? It doesn't matter if it's male or female. Amazing, you are so angry!"
Ye Xiaotian's nostrils were full of smoke: "Do I care whether it is a male or a female, or do you care whether it is a male or a female? Why did I come across a thing that is an entangled bastard like you who adds a third level? I really want to Just strangle you to death!"
"Brother Xiaotian, you are back."
Suddenly there was a joyful voice from behind, Ye Xiaotian's hand grabbing Mao Wenzhi's collar immediately turned into smoothing his clothes for him, and his voice softened: "We are going back to Hu County soon, this time we are Feng Those who go back to be officials in a bright and upright manner should pay more attention to their words and deeds."
"Ah! Yaoyao!" After Ye Xiaotian finished the scene, as if he had just discovered Yaoyao, he turned around abruptly, went up to him with surprise on his face, and opened his arms to embrace Yaoyao who was leaping forward.
Mao Wenzhi loosened his collar resentfully, looked curiously at Fu Wa'er who was jumping towards the distance, and muttered to himself: "Is this thing a male or a female?"
※※※
Ye Xiaotian briefly explained to Hua Yunfei who had rushed back about the situation of not returning last night, then quickly packed up his luggage and rushed to Zhao Wenyuan's residence together. Halfway, after talking with them, Hua Yunfei separated from them.
Hua Yunfei had a criminal record in Hu County and was responsible for more than a dozen murders. It would be unreasonable to go back in such a grandiose manner. Although not many people had actually seen Hua Yunfei's face, it was too risky after all.
Ye Xiaotian discussed with Hua Yunfei, and decided to let him rush back to Hu County first, and wait for the opportunity to lurk down. As for the future, we will wait until he arrives in Hu County to act accordingly. In this way, when they arrived at Zhao Wenyuan's mansion, only Ye Xiaotian, Mao Wenzhi, Yao Yao, Dong Dong, and a monkey and a panda were left.
For such a weird lineup, Zhao Wenyuan and his team showed great interest, but they mostly paid attention to the giant ape. Qian Qingqing's wonderful eyes, however, quickly moved around Dong Dong, Yao Yao and the big man.
Among Zhao Wenyuan and others, only she knew Dong Dong's true identity, and she was deeply afraid of such a mysterious figure who was good at voodoo, even Qian Qingqing who was all in martial arts.
As for the big man, this kind of rare ancient giant ape was widely active in the Guizhou area in a long time ago, but it has long since disappeared. They have never even heard of it. Later generations have recovered it through the excavated paleontological fossils. This ancient humanoid creature.
Because they have never seen it before, these people are inevitably very interested in its unusually tall body and a considerable degree of wisdom it possesses, and Qian Qingqing once went to the Gu Temple with Yang Yinglong that day, and saw this giant ape displaying supernatural power with his own eyes. It looks like it, so I can't help but pay more attention to it.
As for the distance...
Qian Qingqing glanced at her, then secretly admired: "As expected of the son of the chieftain, the pink make-up and jade carving are really cute. It's been a long time, and she has become more and more beautiful. When she grows up, she must be a human being." Lovely little beauty."
Qian Qingqing thought about it, and greeted her with a smile: "This is Yaoyao, right? She's so cute, come on, let's go all the way to Hu County, you can take the same car with Auntie."
Yaoyao looked up at Ye Xiaotian, Ye Xiaotian said: "Thank you, auntie, go, you take a car with this auntie."
Only then did Yaoyao agree, and obediently bowed to Qian Qingqing, and said crisply and authentically: "Hello, Auntie."
"Okay! Okay!" Qian Qingqing took her little hand with a smile, and said softly, "Come on, let's get in the car, just call me Aunt Qingqing."
At this time, Zhao Wenyuan came over, and said to Ye Xiaotian with a smile: "Brother Ye Xian, you can count yourself here, let's hit the road, how about it?"
Ye Xiaotian saw that the family was already well-packed and the carriages and horses were waiting outside the door, knowing that they were waiting for him, he couldn't help apologizing, "Brother Zhao has been waiting for a long time, my brother is late."
Zhao Wenyuan smiled and said: "It's not too late, let's go, let's get in the car, you two followers, if you can ride a horse, I have a spare horse here, if you need a car, take the one behind, it's just a car I put some luggage on it, so it's a bit crowded. As for this... hmm? This Pixiu... "
There was a small basket hanging under Fuwa's neck, which contained bamboo shoots, and it was holding a leaf of bamboo shoots with great relish. Hearing the two talking, he raised his head and looked at them cutely.
Ye Xiaotian said: "Big man!"
Ye Xiaotian gestured to his neck, then pointed to Fuwa'er, the big man understood, grabbed Fuwa'er's neck, put it on his neck, took out a bamboo shoot from its basket, and threw it directly. into his mouth.
Zhao Wenyuan smiled and said: "I don't know where Ye Xiandi found this giant ape. Such a tall figure is unheard of, and it is quite rare to have a good understanding of human intelligence."
Ye Xiaotian said: "I found this by accident in the mountains, it is tall, let it follow the car, and it will not delay the journey."
Zhao Wenyuan looked at the giant ape curiously again, and then boarded the car with Ye Xiaotian. The carriages and horses started, and they walked along the long street, and passed by the gate of the Xia Mansion after a while. Ye Xiaotian saw the three-foot-wide screen wall in front of the gate of the Xia Mansion, and suddenly recalled in his mind the time he had with An Nantian when he was drunk lying here last night. A dialogue: "Zhao Wenyuan is Yang Yinglong's man!"
