New Year's Eve, New Year's Eve.

Baicheng is brightly lit, the streets are deserted, and the bustle is contained inside.

The urban area is still reserved, but the surrounding towns are extremely noisy, as if returning to the era seventy or eighty years ago, when children wore new cotton jackets and ran around in the snow.

Fireworks rise into the sky one after another, changing the colorful scenery.

The huge Fenghuangfang has closed its doors and shops, and the shops are closed, only the two round dragon eyes are hanging in the air, revealing a faint white light.

The big square under Phoenix Mountain was also empty, the wooden doors of the houses on both sides were locked tightly, and there were no arrangements for the disciples who were on duty outside.

There have been three generations of masters here, and the current master is Xi Jun. He was originally the boss of the company, with strong management ability, good at buying people's hearts, and he was one of the first batch of disciples, so he quickly secured his position.

A few years ago, sects all over the country were laying off staff. Under the auspices of You Yu and Xi Jun, Phoenix Mountain took the opportunity to reform and regained its vitality. It can fight for another five hundred years.

Right now, the whole mountain should be gathering together to celebrate the New Year.

There is no moon tonight, the north wind is piercing, the sky is shrouded in the cold night, and the lights in the mountains are like the only existence in this vast expanse, ancient and mysterious and extremely warm.

A gust of wind blew through, and a faint cloud of smoke rose from the foot of the mountain, and the cloud of smoke cast a lighter shadow, standing alone on the square, looking up.

He looked at it for a long time, then Fang raised his foot and walked forward, the magic circle opened slightly, welcoming the return of the long-lost master.

Passing through the turbulent smoke, the eyes suddenly open up, and the square inside corresponds to the outside, and it becomes more primitive and simple. The river around the mountain flows slowly, and a bridge is erected in mid-air, leading directly to the mountainside.

There is light everywhere, red and festive, and lanterns are hung in every corner, reflecting the winding and dense paths.

Utility room, practice field, Wutong Garden, Xuantian Hall, Yingyuan Hall... The fruit forest in the front mountain, the tea garden in the back mountain, the rice field in the east, the animal garden in the west, the talisman workshop in the north, and the wine cellars still have Bursts of strong fragrance.

Everyone gathered in the main hall to celebrate, including their relatives and family members, there were about a thousand people. Xi Jun sat in the middle, with exquisite faces, and his passionate words set off cheers one after another.

Of course, there are always some misfits. Lao Shui hid in the yard behind the mountain with Yan Han and Li Dong, drinking and bragging over a few small dishes.

all old...

Gu Yu traveled to every place in Phoenix Mountain, and finally passed through the peach forest and arrived at Neishan.

The inner mountain is still the same, the intersecting river surrounds the isolated island, Qingxinlu is to the north, the courtyard is still the same, and the gourd vines that I planted by myself grow outside the window.

He didn't have any emotion, only went under the old tree.

"Old friend!"

Gu Yu stretched out his palm and pressed it on the rough tree trunk, communicating with his spiritual thoughts. After a while, he shook his head and sighed, "Aren't you willing to follow me?"

"rustle!"

"Okay, okay, I see."

"Then, see you later."

Late at night, the Fang family.

Uncle Fang added another fire, and the heat from the kang was still warm. Young people have long since stopped keeping the year old, but the old people are fastidious, struggling with sleepiness, watching the Spring Festival Gala on TV one after another.

The two children were already asleep, their heads touching on the kang, covered with a thin quilt, snoring slightly.

Fang Qing chatted with her parents, and the rest sat at the dining table and chatted. There were eight dishes and eight bowls of leftovers on the table.

"It is obviously a deformed society now. Some aspects are developing rapidly, and some aspects are stagnant. In the past, the mobile phone was replaced by a new generation, and now it seems to have reached the end of development. If this continues, I am really afraid that technology will die."

"Recently, many people are clamoring for cultivation to save the country, combining talismans and magic tools with the needs of life. In fact, the country has been doing it for a long time, but the people don't know it. The promotion of cultivation products has natural restrictions, unless you can solve everyone's qualifications. Either solve the problem of popularization of product applications, otherwise it is empty talk that misleads the country and is a sinner!"

"Hey, don't be too radical. Social transformation does not happen overnight, especially this new thing is still developing. It develops, new changes replace old changes, old problems are not solved, and new problems arise. But don't worry, sooner or later there will be A clear policy concept."

They were all educated people, and they talked about things in a very polite way. Fang Qing would interject from time to time, wipe her body and ask her parents in dialect where to go to pay New Year's greetings tomorrow, switching freely.

After chatting for a while, she was about to boil some water when she suddenly paused, "Hey, it seems like someone knocked on the door?"

Listening carefully, sure enough, there was a knock on the door outside.

"Who is it in the middle of the night?"

Fang Qing put on some clothes, Trisso ran out, and opened the door latch with a bang, revealing a somewhat unfamiliar face.

"elder brother?"

She didn't dare to admit it at first, but it took a few seconds for her to confirm. She was surprised and delighted: "Why are you here?"

"Chinese New Year, I haven't seen you for a long time, so I came to see you, is everyone here?"

"Well, the whole family is back this year, so let's take a look at the house by the way."

"You want to buy a house?"

"No, I will retire in a few years, and I want to move back and build one myself."

With that said, the two entered the back room.

boom!

Bang!

"ah!"

All kinds of collisions, shattering, and exclamation sounds sounded one after another. This group of people's social status is not low. Naturally, they have seen photos of some people, and they were very excited and panicked for a while.

The two children were also woken up, rubbing their eyes in bewilderment.

Uncle Fang and Aunt Fang escaped from their sleepiness, squinted their eyes for a while to identify, and then said: "Oh, Xiao Yu, when did you come back?"

"You brat, do you remember coming back? Let me tell you, I will sweep your house every three days, and you can't pay back this favor."

"Yes, it's all my fault, I'm too busy!"

Gu Yu nodded and smiled apologetically, greeted everyone, then looked at the kang, "This is..."

"It's just in time for you to come back, otherwise you won't be able to see it."

Fang Qing pulled the two children over and said with a smile, "My grandchildren are six years old and four years old."

"Okay, you are now a grandma!"

Gu Yu was also very terrified, touched his body, took out two pieces of jade and put them on for the children, "Come on, that counts... Hey, what generation am I?"

"Uncle!"

"Oh yes, this is a gift for you, please keep it well."

"Thank you, uncle!"

The two children were baffled, and a guy with greasy hair and flour noodles appeared somewhere and became an uncle, and he forced two pieces of broken jade!

Gu Yu was not polite at all when he came here, he put his butt on the edge of the kang, those people were extremely cautious and did not dare to speak, only the three members of the Fang family remained unmoved.

"Have you visited the old house?"

"I just went there, everything is fine, and I have to thank you, old man."

"Thank you for telling us... Hey, have you eaten yet? There are some dumplings."

"Pork with cabbage?"

"Sure!"

"Heh, let's have a bowl."

"I'm going to be hot."

Fang Qing ran to the kitchen with the plate, and Aunt Fang continued to ask, "How many days are you staying here?"

"Uh, I have to leave in a while, I'm very busy."

"Be busy, be busy and have a career. Anyway, I don't understand, what is the cultivation of immortality and longevity, ouch, I'm tired just listening to it."

Tsk!

Uncle Fang couldn't bear it anymore, and scolded: "What are you talking nonsense about with no culture, what you are doing is a big deal, and you will be tired if you listen to it, and you will fall asleep when you are tired!"

"What's wrong with me being uneducated? You are educated, you are educated and you marry me? If you fall asleep, I won't sleep!"

"What are you arguing about? If you don't watch it for a while, you will be arguing, and it won't bother you for decades?"

Fang Qing turned off the fire, and came in with a plate of steaming dumplings. Aunt Fang Shufang was like a child who has been scolded by her parents, she immediately fell silent.

Gu Yu smiled, picked up the dumpling and took a bite, the thin skin broke open, and the oily juice flowed out, revealing the fat and thin meat inside.

"Well, it still tastes the same! I used to be able to eat a big bowl by myself, but now I can barely."

He swallowed it in two mouthfuls, and continued the topic just now: "You said you want to come back after retirement?"

"Actually, I should have quit a few years ago. The school asked me to keep me. I just worked for a while. My project has almost been completed, so I don't have any regrets. Besides, they are getting older, so I can take care of them by the side."

"Well, it's good. If you have any difficulties, go to Xi Jun, don't support yourself."

"That's necessary, don't use it for nothing!"

Fang Qing spoke cheerfully, as if she had returned to her youthful appearance. The little girl with big eyes gave him a bowl of dumplings stuffed with cabbage and pork, and played with his computer by the way.

After a while, the dumplings were wiped out. Gu Yu wiped his mouth, stood up and said, "Uncle, Auntie, I should go."

"Leave so soon? Sit down."

"No, I wish the two elders a happy new year, good health, and a long life!"

He gave a senior salute, and then left the room.

Fang Qing sent him to the gate, she was inside, he was outside, the door light was dim, and the alley was dark.

Seeing that person walking away, Fang Qing called out suddenly: "Brother!"

"What's wrong?" He wiped his body.

"Are you back yet?"

"Ah… "

Gu Yu smiled, waved his hands, and turned around again, walking farther and farther away.
