Myriad Realms Exchange Machine

Chapter 113

Li Yu and Qiu Tong watched the young man's actions and saw the young man named Han Xi slowly spreading the cloth.

At that moment, Li Yu saw that the old man with white beard and hair stood up suddenly in front of the teenagers. In just a moment, the majesty of the elders deliberately maintained on his face collapsed, and his eyes were filled with "unbelievable!" "Four words, he wanted to touch the object in the cloth with his fingers like dead branches of an old tree, but he gave up halfway, and then his whole body sank back into the wicker chair behind him.

"Elder Ge?" The teenagers had never seen the old man so out of control, and they could not help calling softly. (The old village chief's surname is Ge, and he is the oldest person recorded in Gejia Village's "Village Records", so "Ge Lao" is his honorary title.)
"No problem." Elder Ge waved his hand, his tone was like a sigh."What did she say?" he asked.

Han Xi then told the truth about what happened in the mountains.

……

After a while, the boys had all left, only the crimson mane remained in Ge Lao's hands as a proof.

The white-haired old man looked at the cloth handkerchief in his hand, and seemed to have thousands of words to express, but in the end he didn't say a word, only heard a sigh hovering in the empty room.

She refused to see him again.

Yes, so many years have passed. He has long since married another woman. His children have all been buried, and his grandchildren have reached their prime.

He's already a bad old man.

He doesn't know when he will die.

Not seeing... that's fine.

Elder Ge walked to the window, and the sun was shining brightly outside.But in his heart, a gloomy cloud was coming up.

County magistrate Zhu sent someone here a few days ago, and the village probably has guests to entertain these days.

But at this time...it will really cause me trouble.

Ge Lao looked out the window, it was the best time of the day at this moment, his wrinkled cheeks were bathed in the gentle sunlight, finally he smiled lightly, he murmured: "Cang Lin."

"It turns out that the name of the mountain god is Canglin, and it seems that he belongs to the Qilin family." Qiutong said.

"The Qilin clan? Are they very powerful?" Li Yu asked.

"Yes, at least now we can't afford to offend him at all." Qiutong replied.

"Is there anything I can't afford to provoke the little fairy?" Li Yu finally understood that the high magic plane is really frightening.

Li Yu and Qiu Tong disguised themselves as travelers passing by and sneaked into the village.

Just at this time, there was a guest in the village, and everyone ran to the entrance of the village to see the guest, so no one paid attention to Qiu Tong and Li Yu, making them get along very smoothly.

As soon as we arrived, the charming young lady riding on the horse had a beautiful appearance and simple and elegant clothes. Although her complexion showed the paleness of a sickly person, she could not hide the natural nobility inside.On one side, the swordsman dressed in green clothes is as tall as a pine tree, with extremely handsome features, vigorous steps, and impressive heroic spirit.Even the old woman who was holding the horse looked very energetic and did not look old at all.

Secondly, except for the salesmen who used to buy mountain products and the yamen who collected taxes, no outsiders have visited Gejia Village for a long time.

As if moved by the rare generosity of the county magistrate, when the three guests arrived at the entrance of the village, Ge Lao came to greet them in person leaning on crutches.For a while, some villagers who were not very interested in these visitors from outside the mountain were moved by Ge Lao's enthusiasm, and they all came out to welcome them, only blocking the narrow path in the village.

"Several distinguished guests are here, and I am welcome from a distance, and welcome from a distance." Elder Ge smiled all over his face, as if he was facing the county magistrate himself.

The old lady had already helped the young lady off the horse, and the three of them saluted Mr. Ge.

"The old man speaks seriously," the girl said softly, "The little girl has not recovered from her long illness, and her body is full of turbidity. I feel ashamed for coming here to bother me. How dare I let the old man greet you with such hospitality."

"Miss, what are you talking about?" Elder Ge returned a salute, and then said: "Miss' suffering, someone from the family has told me about it before, and I have lived such a long time anyway, so how can I be unreasonable?" .”

After saying a word, Ge Lao patted the head of Huangkou Xiaoer who had been supporting him all the time before, and said softly: "Go and see if your mother has prepared the food and wine."

After hearing this, the child nodded, turned around, and taking advantage of his small size, he forced his way through the crowd of people watching from the back row.

"What are you all doing around here! How unbecoming!" Mr. Ge scolded the group of people behind him again, "Why don't you get out of the way! Erhu! Take the guests to the guest room at the east end to rest! Sanni, Dashu Why don't you help the guests with their luggage? Hold the horses! Why are you just standing there and preparing for me, an old man, to do it!!"

At this time, a village woman hurried up to help Madam Rong lead the horse, and another villager helped to remove the bag from the horse's back from one side.

"Leave the horses to us, too. There are stables in the village, and we will help you settle them." The villager holding the horse said enthusiastically.

"Then, I'm sorry." Rong Rong stroked the horse's mane and nodded to the villager in thanks.

After scolding, Elder Ge turned to face the guests, miraculously restored the previous smile on his face, and said: "This girl must not like to make noise, this old man has prepared guest rooms for a few people at the east end of the village, neighbors They are all clean houses. The girl will go with my grandson to take a look, and if there is something dissatisfied, just say so."

"I have troubled you all so much, my little girl is really uneasy." The nurse Rong behind the girl handed over a bundle, and the girl held it in her slender hands, and handed it gently in front of Elder Ge, and said softly: "From hometown to here." The journey is far away, and many things are inconvenient to carry, only a pair of brocade can be obtained, and I will give it to you, and I hope you will never refuse."

decline?You think too much!

Seeing that Mr. Ge took it without hesitation, the wrinkles on his face deepened a little with joy, and he said: "Girl, you are so polite, how can you be so embarrassing."

"The little girl's surname is Lin, and her father's name is Xiruo. This is the guard my brother hired for my little girl, Ye Qingyuan, a chivalrous man. This is my nurse, Nurse Rong." The girl... no, it should be called now Miss Lin, or Lin Xiruo, seeing that Elder Ge had accepted the gift, introduced the two people beside her one by one, and then asked, "I don't know what to call the old man?"

Mr. Ge was in a good mood at the moment, so he replied: "Since the girl lives in our village, just treat this place as your own home. People in this village call me Mr. Ge, so just call me that. There are not many people in our village. You'll be able to recognize her after living with her for a while."

Hearing what Ge Lao said, Lin Xiruo just smiled softly, and with this smile, a little blood color appeared on his pale face. The young men around were stunned.

Ge Lao's little grandson, that is, the young man called Erhu who was called to lead the way for Miss Lin and her party, actually blushed at this moment (fortunately, his skin is slightly dark, so you can't really tell unless you look carefully), until his thigh After being hit by grandpa's crutches, he stepped forward a little shyly, and said, "Miss Lin, the guest rooms for you guys have been cleaned up, that... just follow me." then go.

"I'm afraid this girl's cultivation level is not low. I don't know what the purpose of coming to this village is. I hope she's not looking for the Son of Heaven like us!" Qiu Tong said.

Then, Li Yu and Qiu Tong continued to pretend to be passengers and quietly followed.
