Chapter 111 Uncle Xu's Old Friend

End of the year, old town, suburbs.

Chu Tianming rode a sweeping shared bicycle and followed behind Uncle Xu who was driving a booth.

Uncle Xu’s stall car is a tricycle, because all the tools needed to be put on the car, so the tricycle is quite large, and the burly and tall master Xu is sitting on it, and the scene looks quite harmonious.

But today's stall car didn't have the tools needed to set up a stall, because Uncle Xu just came to pick up Chu Tianming today - on the day before the Chinese New Year, even if he set up a stall to do business, he wouldn't make much money.

The stalls and shared bicycles parked in front of a one-story house. Uncle Xu and Chu Tianming got off the car. Under the guidance of Uncle Xu, Chu Tianming walked into the house and walked to a courtyard.

Standing outside the door, Chu Tianming could see a tall jujube tree in the yard.

"Old woman! We're back!" Uncle Xu shouted while pushing the door.

"Come here!" The old woman in an apron came out of the house.

Chu Tianming followed Uncle Xu into the courtyard, looked up, the old lady looked very old, her hair was almost all white, but she was very energetic and her complexion was quite ruddy.

From this point of view, she and Uncle Xu look very good as husband and wife.

"You are the little Chu that Old Xu has been talking about, right?" The old lady walked over with a smile, "When you get home, don't be polite, don't be restrained, just stay at home."

"There are only two of us at home, so we are very comfortable." Uncle Xu answered.

"Well, good afternoon, mother-in-law." Chu Tianming greeted with a polite bow.

Uncle Xu's child died when he was serving as the city defense army. Judging from the behavior of the old couple and the layout of the yard, it seems that this place has always been quite deserted.

The two old people wanted to have a lively New Year, but he had no reason to refuse.

Following his mother-in-law into the house, Chu Tianming originally wanted to help her, but Uncle Xu stopped him: "My old lady doesn't like others to make trouble when she is cooking, even I can't help , come and watch TV."

Uncle Xu's attitude was firm, and Chu Tianming couldn't insist on it. He followed him to the TV, turned on the TV, and chatted casually while eating melon seeds.

In the beginning, Uncle Xu asked him some questions about his usual study and life, such as whether he had any difficulties in life, whether he was under a lot of pressure from studying, and so on.

In fact, he was really under pressure to study before. After all, if he was not careful and his strength improved too quickly, he might lose the qualification to open up wasteland and secret realms.

But with the Qinghua Secret Scripture, this pressure will no longer exist.

Of course, there is no need to mention these things to an ordinary person like Uncle Xu. Chu Tianming only said that he was doing well, and did not go into details. He gradually led the topic to other directions, such as the gossip in Wuyang City, There are gossip about other surrounding cities.

Maybe it's because when you get older, you will always have deeper experience, or maybe it's because you once had a son who was in the city defense army. Uncle Xu knows a lot of things, and he can't stop talking once he opens it.

But every once in a while, Uncle Xu himself would come to his senses and remind Chu Tianming that what he knew were all rumors and gossip. Can't believe it all.

For example, the closest city to Wuyang City is a medium-sized city named "Tianfeng City". Unlike Wuyang City, it is not jointly ruled by nobles and city lords, but by a "Law Firm" that can control the entire city except for military affairs. of everything.

And the latest supreme leader of the Tianfeng City Law Firm, the "judicial judge", is a young lady—the youth here is judged based on her position of authority. In fact, this "young lady" is also Already 50 years old.

Of course, in this extraordinary world, as long as the strength is strong enough, people in their 40s look no different from people in their 30s and [-]s.

At the same time, this new magistrate is also the sister of the chief executive of Skywind City's military power "Eye of the Storm".

According to rumors in Tianfeng City, the brothers and sisters who hold the highest military and political positions in Tianfeng City have some "too close" relationship.

I don't know how this rumor came about.

Most likely it was the first arrangement in Wuyang City.

After all, if it was really the first rumor in Tianfeng City, then the life of the person who started the rumor would not be enough to die.

Of course, there is also a slight possibility, this is not a rumor.

But Chu Tianming didn't believe it. This is not a novel, so how could it be so outrageous.

……

At night, the house is lit with warm orange lights, and the meals on the table under the lights are shining with oil, making them more and more attractive.

"Come on, eat more." The mother-in-law put a large piece of fat and thin beef into Chu Tianming's bowl.

"Grandma, I can't eat anymore, I really can't eat anymore..." Chu Tianming waved his hands repeatedly.

His Mysterious Tortoise Condensation Kungfu has been entering the realm very quickly, and he has consumed a lot of body, so he has always been able to eat.

But even so, tonight's meal has supported him a bit, which shows how rich the preparations are.

Chu Tianming touched his swollen belly—the food he ate today was enough to carry three healthy adult men into the hospital.

Leaning on the dining table, chatting with the two old people for a while, Chu Tianming felt sleepy - after eating so much, the blood was concentrated in the stomach to help digestion, the brain ischemia, Naturally, it is easier to get sleepy.

Seeing Chu Tianming's sleepiness, the mother-in-law sympathetically led him to a side room - that was the room where their son used to live, and now it happened to be used as a guest room.

The room is very simple and spotless, it can be seen that it is cleaned frequently, and the things placed are neat and practical.

It coincides with Chu Tianming's philosophy of life.

Perhaps it was because of the situation, after bringing a quilt to Chu Tianming, the mother-in-law left very quickly.

Chu Tianming said goodbye to his mother-in-law and went to sleep.

When the mother-in-law returned to the house, she also yawned.

"Old lady, you can go to bed too, I'll just clean up these things." Uncle Xu was still sitting at the table.

"You tidy up alone?" The mother-in-law was taken aback, "Why are you so diligent today?"

"Maybe a friend will come to see me later, I'll have another drink with him." Uncle Xu said with a smile.

The mother-in-law nodded thoughtfully, told Uncle Xu to use less water when washing the dishes, and then went to the bedroom to rest.

Uncle Xu sat at the edge of the dining table, took out two cigarettes, one in his mouth, and the other casually tossed at the door: "Aren't you coming out yet?"

The smoke stayed in mid-air, and a transparent figure appeared in the air, which quickly changed from virtual to real, and turned into a tall and elegant middle-aged man.

The cigarette that had been hanging in the air was now caught between his fingertips.

"Brother, long time no see." Feng Xueji smiled.

"It's best not to see you," Uncle Xu snorted twice, "I'm sure nothing good will happen if I see you."

"I'm sorry about Xiaotao..." Feng Xueji sat on the table, the cigarette on his fingertips spontaneously ignited.

"There is nothing to be sorry for. This is the path he chose. I, as an old man, am proud of him." Uncle Xu took out his lighter and lit the cigarette.

"Have you been to the City Lord's Mansion before?" Feng Xueji asked, "I thought my perception was wrong at the time."

"With my current level of cultivation, can I hide it from you?" Uncle Xu rolled his eyes, "Isn't the City Lord's Mansion serving the citizens? Why, I can't go there?"

"Go and go, everyone can go, it's best for everyone to come to the City Lord's Mansion if they have something to do, and I will solve any problems." Feng Xueji laughed.

"Keep down, my wife is sleeping!" Uncle Xu glared at him.

"Oh." Feng Xueji closed his voice.

 Woooooo... forgot to write the title, I added it at the beginning of the text, orz is so hard at home, as expected, only the first two days are comfortable after returning home, fortunately, I will return to Xi'an around the [-]th...
