This sword-bearer, who was expected by the Luohe clan and was rumored to have a hundred years of martial arts.

Her return did not cause much surprise.

As if it should be so, go with the flow and conform to the principles of heaven.

On the contrary, Su Xuan became a mountain man who had never seen the world, and began to be suspicious, always feeling that he was being stared at by something, and every step of what he did was under the control of others.

Sitting in the ancestral house are all old guys, missing teeth in the east and hair in the west, eyes like dragon's eyes, and half a foot...... It should be half lying in the coffin.

Maybe the impetuosity of their youth has already precipitated, and even if the sky falls, they will feel that it makes sense and feel that the sky should have fallen......

The elder who was helping Lu Yu grind the medicinal powder in the ancestral house said, "It seems that it is still not enough, and we have to replenish some new medicinal materials." ”

Su Xuan looked at the gradually scarce pieces of bark in the drawer of medicinal herbs, and took the initiative to ask Ying to say that he would pick them himself, even if the patriarch was not there.

The elder said, "The Bone Washing Fruit grows on the Hanging Spirit Cliff, and the fast horse can come back after a day's journey, but the Bone Washing Fruit grows on the grave, and a stranger may encounter danger." ”

When encountering danger, isn't it a plant that grows around the grave, what other danger can you encounter, although the place is a little infiltrating, but the dead can still jump out and drive him away.

Su Xuan said: "It's just right, let Miss Hu go with me, this shouldn't be counted as a foreigner." ”

The elder nodded and said, "Well, that's the only way to do it, but you have to get her permission first." ”

"It should be, it should be." Su Xuan said with a smile.

Speaking of this, a white figure happened to come in from outside the door, even though her face was as usual, Su Xuan still read a trace of unhappiness in her clear eyes, or rather, worry.

Su Xuan asked, "You went to the road on the other side of Huyang Lane?" The little house of the patriarch? ”

Stopped, Hu Yue, a woman in white, asked suspiciously: "Could it be that Gongzi secretly followed me just now?" ”

Su Xuan knew why she was puzzled, if someone followed her, she would definitely be discovered by her keen hearing. It's no joke, nothing is impossible in this isolated town.

In order to avoid becoming a stalker himself, he hurriedly explained: "No, no. If you don't believe me, ask the elders! ”

The elder helped him and said, "No, he has always been here to help." ”

"How does that kid know where I've gone?"

"I guess." Su Xuan scratched his head and said, "Since I came here, I have only been to the street and alley you mentioned, and I still remember the smell of that alley, the smell of poplar leaves all over the ground." And then there's some remnants of rice bran cold porridge stuck to the back of your hand, and I remember that the patriarch's house had six chickens, seven ducks, and eight geese, and you must have gone to help raise these ducks and birds......"

Speaking of this, Su Xuan seemed to find more unusual, so he continued to say it in one breath, "Moreover, in this way, you came back in a hurry!" Is there something tricky? ”

Hu Yue lowered his head, quickly hid his hand behind him, and said with some embarrassment, "Tu Hongzhan and Su Ronghong have a dispute, if I hadn't stopped it, they might have already started a fight." ”

The elder smiled: "It's these two little dolls, aren't they the two most outstanding among the juniors, what's the matter, there is a contradiction?" ”

"Grandpa Zuo, why are you the same as the Eighth Elder, why aren't you worried at all when it's clear that they're going to fight?" Hu Yue's voice seemed to be complaining.

The elder said: "These little dolls have been churning under our protection since they were children, and it is good that something goes wrong, and life is too smooth, which is not good for their growth." ”

"But ......"

The old man went with the flow and the boat sank naturally at the head of the bridge, so that the girl swallowed what she wanted to say in her mouth, and she looked helplessly at Su Xuan, who was holding a medicine pestle on the side.

Su Xuan suddenly had an illusion, as if he remembered that when he was in middle school, sitting at the door of the department's classroom, a person came over hesitantly, and said to him with the attitude of a dead horse as a live horse doctor: Classmate, my IC card has dropped, can you find me......

People have defined themselves as good and bad, and since Su Xuan can remember, he has always considered himself to be at the balance between the two.

In areas where bad guys are equal to causing trouble and good guys are equal to being in the limelight, this kind of balance point that has nothing to do with oneself has collapsed on the spot and has become a concrete manifestation of "cowardice."

But that kind of gaze of being asked for help can make Su Xuan feel that he is really a good person.

"There's no problem that can't be solved, and if there is, it's not a problem."

Who said this, Su Xuan forgot, but this is the purpose of the Lost and Found Service Center.

Having said that, the movements in Su Xuan's hands did not speed up. Although look at what that face that can't be dragged at a young age looks like when he fights, but I don't know when, he also learned to put aside what he wanted to do so much, is it because he has been assimilated by these old men in the ancestral house?

This is terrible, then isn't he Su Xuan decrepit before he gets old!

"Don't worry." Su Xuan said to the woman, "Tell me about the matter first, and when my Senior Brother Lu's medicine is finished, I will go over and see how much contradiction I can have at such a young age, and I can actually fight." ”

He remembered the kid named Tu Hongzhan, who was young and had the attitude of a boss, and he didn't spit out with a punch.

"The two of them refused to tell me, so I asked the other junior brothers and sisters, and they said that it was Xiaohong who hacked the fish raised by Xiaorong to death."

......

"Gone?" Su Xuan asked.

Hu Yue shook his head.

"Are you sure you don't want to add more?" Su Xuan was surprised, "It's not just a fish, why don't you send her ten or eight more!" ”

"By the way, it is said that the fish was given to her by Su Ronghong's brother, so she will be very angry because it was given to her by her brother as a gift."

"If you're angry, you might be, but I don't think it's enough for them to fight, right? Just because of a fish, how can the brothers of the same sect not turn against each other. ”

"Well, I heard that when Xiao Hong hacked the fish to death, she said that Xiao Rong's plaything was demoralized, and she was angry and cried at the time, and later I heard that it was a quarrel."

Su Xuan nodded, "This is in line with that young master's character." ”

Although he only has a one-sided relationship with the young man named Tu Hongzhan, Su Xuan can be said to have figured out the character of this kid.

"What did you say?"

Because of the interruption of the woman's words due to her own self-talk, Su Xuan hurriedly said, "I'm sorry for interrupting what you said, please continue." ”

Hu Yue continued: "Actually, that's all there is to it, their contradictions have always been there, and then that is, one day when Xiao Hong stayed in the house, the three perch raised in the dining room were all gone overnight, Xiao Rong thought that Xiao Hong was humiliating and retaliating against her, so at that time they already hated each other, and when it passed today, they fought because they had to practice boxing or swordsmanship first this morning."

But by the time we saw them, they probably had fought several times. This matter cannot be left unattended. ”

"I can understand your concern, but don't rush just yet."

Because of the first practice of boxing or the first practice of swordsmanship and fighting, it is obviously a very deliberate behavior of both sides, the kind of practice of pressing the other party to death as long as the opportunity is seized, Su Xuan When the lost and found service department was sitting at the gate, there were not ten or eight pieces.

However, what Su Xuan is curious about is that the young master Tu Hongzhan may be an old and harsh person, but he will definitely not be a bitter person. He shouldn't take on the deliberately provoked contradictions, so that the little girl Su Ronghong who wants to find a so-called legitimate reason to teach the other party a lesson will not be able to succeed.

If there is a fight, it only means that both people have misunderstandings about each other.

And the question is, how did Tu Hongzhan, the young master, start to hate each other.

Su Xuan said: "You still haven't explained some things, for example, when did Su Ronghong's brother give her fish, why did he give her fish, and what gift did he give it to her?" How did the perch in the dining room disappear, and how long did these two things last? ”

"Since it's a gift, I think Su Ronghong must like fish, not food." The woman shook her head, "They didn't tell me the rest. ”

"It's okay, it's too urgent to go and ask them now. Now that you've stopped them, they shouldn't be fighting again anytime soon. ”

Su Xuan stopped what he was doing, and the medicinal powder was almost ground. Wiped some of the medicinal powder on his hands with a handkerchief, stood up, and Su Xuan greeted him like an elder.

In addition, Su Xuan actually has one more thing he wants to confirm, that is, what Hu Yue mentioned before, about Tu Hongzhan living in the patriarch's house.

His face did not change, "That girl, is it convenient to go and see them now?" ”

This is probably only visible to the elderly.

"The sooner the better." The girl was actually more anxious than him.

Poplar Lane is a different alley, because there are poplar trees planted in many residential yards, so it has not reached the period of replacing the old and the new, and the streets are full of fallen leaves.

It looks like a golden carpet, soft and comfortable on the soles of your feet.

The patriarch's mansion is in the deep alley, with loess walls, wooden fences, chickens, ducks and geese, quite lively.

Just when Su Xuan went to check the situation, there were only six children left in the compound.

The elders who supervised the group of boys went from one to two.

The one on the left is the obscene old man Su Xuan has seen several times, and the other is the elder who rescued Lu Yu in front of Tianhu Lake before.

"Second Elder, Eighth Elder, Tu Hongzhan and Su Ronghong, where have the two of them gone?" Hu Yue asked the two elders worriedly.

The second elder with a tough figure said, "These two boys delayed everyone's cultivation for some, I asked them to go home and reflect, I think they will only repent when the patriarch comes back and teaches them a lesson." ”

The Eighth Elder's gaze bypassed the woman, and immediately fell on Su Xuan, who was hiding behind the woman, and slapped the table and said angrily: "What are you doing sneakily hiding behind!" ”

Although his face was yellow and thin, Su Xuan found that the strength of his body was not weak at all, and with one hand, he picked up a person who was more than sixty or seventy kilograms, the smell of wine was tangy, and the spit was flying, and said to his nostrils, "If you kid dares to fight any bad ideas, believe it or not, I will kill you now." ”

"Eight grandpa! He's here to help me, don't get me wrong. ”

When the woman saw Su Xuan being picked up like a chicken, she was busy pleading with the elder.

The obscene old man threw down Su Xuan, and said to the woman, "The eighth master is for your good, which of these strangers is not thieves, despicable and cunning." You haven't seen these people, you don't know how powerful they are, and you won't know if you're deceived. ”

Su Xuan coughed violently and gasped, not knowing if this elder was prejudiced against outsiders like them, or if he was just targeting him alone.

"The eighth master is a reminder for you, don't think I'm verbose. It's not easy for you to stay on the side of the Hanging Spirit Cliff all year round, and it's not easy to see the eighth master, there's no need to turn your elbow out as soon as you meet......"

Su Xuan relieved himself, but he still pretended to cough, and he found that this old man was indeed as he said, quite verbose.
