Xiao Yi got up and pushed the door out, Tong Lu followed behind, the woman grabbed them and said,

"Don't make trouble, if you want to drink, I'll just buy some!"

Xiao Yi thought about it, it was unreasonable to go forward to be accountable, so he promised to buy only some wine and go back, and the woman let go of her hand.

"Go and come back quickly, I'll have a good taste of my sister's craftsmanship later!"

Xiao Yi and the others turned around and smiled, beckoning to her. The woman smiled helplessly, so she went back to the house. After a while, Xiao Yi and Tong Lu came back together, and Xiao Yi was holding a large jar of wine in one hand. Tong Lu looked at everyone in the room,

"Now that there is wine, hehe, Sister Yan, you have to have a few bowls too. ”

Xiao Yi put down the wine jar and sat around the table with Tong Lu. When the two of them saw that the table was full of food, they were limited to a long silence. Bai Qing couldn't help but asked,

"How did you get this wine, you two won't steal it!"

Tong Lu ignored her, just looked at the woman, and asked,

"Sister Yan, can you eat it?"

The woman laughed,

"Of course you can, come on, eat and drink, don't be polite. ”

Everyone was in chaos in an instant, people on the table were staggered, and the sound of dishes clashing was endless. The woman's heart rejoiced,

"Eat slowly, eat slowly, there's more to come! Hehe, you boys have a really good appetite, and it's so good to be young!"

Xiao Yi filled a bowl of wine and handed it to the woman, who took a sip and asked,

"How did you get this wine, if you want to buy wine, you have to go for a long time, you two will come back soon, it's really good!"

Xiao Yi said with a smile,

We saw the joy in the man's house, and when we asked, we knew that it was the youngest son who held a full moon banquet, and when Lu Lu heard it, he went up to praise it, and praised the child's father and mother to the sky, and the family was happy, so they didn't let them go. Haha, if people have to give it, it's hard for us to refuse!"

Tong Lu smiled, and then suppressed his smile,

"Sister Yan, I'm talking about you, I just heard a few broken mouths who seem to be talking bad about you, and I wanted to come forward and scold you, but that person had to hold back when he had a happy event. ”

The woman smiled slightly, her eyes were full of tenderness, and everyone stopped the dishes and chopsticks to listen to him,

"It's rare for someone to come to me, if you want to hear it, then I'll tell you?"

Xiao Yi and the three of them couldn't stop nodding, and the woman sighed lightly and said slowly,

"That was 12 years ago. You shouldn't know my name, my surname is Yan Mingzhu, and I grew up by this water since I was a child. At that time, I was also famous in Langhuan, and there were not a few young men who liked me. My parents died when I was three years old, and I grew up eating hundreds of family meals, and the older generation here knows me, and the next generation is also a sister and brother who grew up together. That year, many people came to the door to ask for relatives, and the village chief was not bothered, and then simply let me choose, so I let out the words, called all the people who were seeking relatives from near and far, and let me choose at will. Many young people who don't want to marry also participate in order to join in the fun. In the day, the village was really noisy, everyone was jubilant, the wine seller occupied all the entrances to the village, and the business was extremely hot. But it seems to be very different from what I imagined, the selection of Lang has become secondary, and it has become a serious thing for everyone to get together to eat and drink, and many people bring their own drinks and delicacies, which has blocked the village tightly. ”

Yan Zhu squeezed out a smile and continued,

"It's ridiculous that everybody got drunk and left me aside. I walked around the village, and one by one I only persuaded me to drink, which was so embarrassing that I was about to go home, but I was stopped by a man and hugged me. When I looked back, I saw that he was a handsome and handsome boy, dressed in white like snow, although he was a little tattered, but he did not hide his extraordinary bearing. I can't help but be stupid! It's exactly the kind I like. The man picked me up, ran to a small boat, held the pole a little, and headed off the shore. ”

The woman straightened her sideburns and said gently,

"The boat is sailing on the Erhai Lake, the scene is beautiful, and with that person by my side, I feel extremely happy. The man lowered his pole, stood in the bow of the boat, pinned the flask to his waist, and took out a flute. The sound of the flute is melodious, and this god is also beautiful, and it is drizzling. I fell drunk in his arms, and I only wish that time would stop forever at this moment, so that I could be with him for the rest of my life. ”

Yan Zhu's cheeks turned crimson, and he continued,

"It was in this Erhai Sea that I gave him my body. When I woke up, the ship was already firmly anchored on the edge of the cliff, and I only remembered that he had told me to wait for him for three years, and I didn't remember anything else, including his appearance. ”

Yan Zhu smiled bitterly,

"Twelve years have passed, and the children are eleven years old, but they have never seen anyone else. I became pregnant before I was married, and the people in the village thought I was inappropriate, so they stopped associating with me, and a few good brothers tried not to associate with me for fear of causing gossip. The most ridiculous thing is that several people in the neighborhood have also moved away, can I still bring them bad luck?"

Yan Zhu smiled and shed tears,

"It's been twelve years, and I'm sure he'll be back!"

After hearing this, Bai Qing was very sad, and hugged Yan Zhu and cried. Tong Lu sighed,

"Sister Yan, do you think it's worth it, for this man who doesn't even know his name, well, even his appearance!"

Yan Zhu smiled lightly,

"He said that I am as beautiful as an immortal, and my voice is like heaven, and he will not marry me in this life. I've hated and resented, but I can't resist my love for him. I didn't dare to go far, for fear that when he came back suddenly, he wouldn't find me again. ”

Xiao Yi suddenly shouted,

"Ah, the man in white, handsome and abnormal, can play the flute!

Yan Zhu was shocked and grabbed Xiao Yi hard,

"You, you, do you really know him?"

Tong Lu threw the freshly gnawed bone at Xiao Yi,

"You are stupid, think about it, twelve years ago, how old was Brother Mu Bai!"

Xiao Yi thought about it, patted his head, was a little embarrassed, and listened to Tong Lu again,

"But this is a search direction, maybe Brother Mu Bai knows that person, maybe he knows that person! Let's go back to Dali City and visit the Shen family, I think a little about Sister Muyang, and why the Yanyu Building was transferred to others, we need to ask clearly." ”

Tong Lu looked at Yan Zhu and said with a smile,

"Sister Yan, apart from these, there are no other clues?"

Yan Zhu smiled bitterly and shook his head. Xiao Yi hurriedly answered,

"Sister Yan, don't worry, we will definitely help you find that person and reunite your family. ”

Yan Zhu sighed and stroked Xia'er with pity,

"Xia'er is afraid that she can't wait for his father. ”

Xiao Yi and the three of them were shocked, and Bai Qing hurriedly asked,

"Sister Yan, why is this, I think that although Xia'er has a bad face, she won't worry about her life!"

She unconsciously stretched out her hand to check Xia'er's pulse, and Xiao Yi saw that her face was gloomy, and she knew that something was wrong. Bai Qing came after a long time,

"Xia'er's heart and pulse disorder, I am afraid that it is a natural heart disease, there is no cure for this disease, only with acupuncture and medicine to regulate, but it can only relieve the pain. ”

Yan Zhu sighed softly,

"I've taken her to see a lot of doctors, and I've taken a lot of medicine, but it's still the same. used to hide it from Xia'er, but when she learned the truth, she didn't cry, and she became a lot more sensible. She said to me, 'Mother, I will definitely take good care of myself and let myself live a few more days, so that even if my father does not come back, my mother can still have someone to accompany me.' 'Xia'er is very well-behaved, it's really distressing!Hey, my Xia'er!!"

Xiao Yi was very sad, Tong Lu Baiqing also couldn't hold back and didn't cry, Qin Lang on the side was full of tears, and he couldn't make a sound for a long time. Yan Zhu said with a smile,

"You guys, don't be sad, for so many years, except for Lang'er, almost no one has come to the house. Let's have a good time today, while we have wine, let's have a good drink!"

The crowd held up bowls of wine, and the wine grunted. After a while, the two jars of wine were poured upside down. Xia'er was happy today, and Yan Zhu also poured half a bowl for her. Yan Zhu looked at this group of young people, her heart was full of warmth, she hadn't been so happy for a long time. Xiao Yitong Lu Qinlang slept in the hall room, and the three daughters were crowded in the bedroom.

Before dawn on the second day, Xiao Yi came to a clearing on the edge of Erhai Lake and used all the boxing, stick, and marksmanship he had learned. Although it was a cold winter, Xiao Yi was sweating profusely. After putting away the stick, Xiao Yi found Qin Lang standing aside. He smiled slightly at Qin Lang,

"Why do you get up so early!"

Qin Lang replied,

"Brother Xiaoyi, your martial arts are really good, if you had the heart to deal with me yesterday, I am afraid that you would have been beaten down by you. ”

Xiao Yi smiled, noncommittal. Listen to Qin Lang again,

"Brother Xiaoyi, did you use a stick as a gun just now, I have always wanted to learn marksmanship, I don't know if you can teach me. ”

Xiao Yi patted his chest,

"Of course you can, but the master said that this routine is just the basics, and if you want to use it in actual combat, you must study it carefully and understand it deeply. ”

Qin Lang nodded, his eyes staring at Xiao Yi. Xiao Yi used this marksmanship again, Qin Lang learned to dance the long pole, and Xiao Yi pointed out on the side, he actually learned it well. Qin Lang was talented and intelligent, and soon memorized all the moves, Xiao Yi was very satisfied, and told him about his experience in learning martial arts. The two of them sat on the rocks by the Erhai Lake and laughed lightly. Xiao Yi suddenly grabbed Qin Lang, his face was a little desolate,

"Xiao Lang, I almost forgot, I still have something to give you!"

Qin Lang looked at him suspiciously, only to see Xiao Yi take off a chain rope from his waist, one end of the iron rope was sharp with small claws, and the other end was round with big claws. Qin Lang took it and asked softly,

"What kind of blade is this, it's strange. ”

Xiao Yi said softly,

"It's your father's relic. ”

When Qin Lang heard this, he instantly changed color, returned the Qiankun claw to Xiao Yi, and replied,

"Brother Xiaoyi, I won't want his things. I don't want to have anything to do with him anymore. Thank you for bringing the news of his death, I am very happy. ”

Xiao Yi was about to say something, and heard Qin Lang say,

"Brother Xiaoyi, he abandoned his wife and children back then, and my mother and I have long since denied him. I heard that the man also became a robber killer, so that the mother could not hold her head up in the village. My mother died five years ago, and I was left alone, and then I met Xia'er, and I realized that I was not the only one suffering from the world. That's why I'm trying to fish and make myself stronger, so that I can make this world less painful. ”

Xiao Yi touched Qin Lang's forehead and said softly,

We all want to be the sun, but we can't resist the night, so we just do our best. ”

The two sat together, and the sunlight slanted through, reflecting their figures in the water.

Tong Lu walked out of the house with his head in his hands, came to Xiao Yi's side and shouted,

"Oh, I'm dying of headaches, why are you so able to drink! It's killing people, ah!"

Bai Qing and Xia'er walked out together, and Xia'er looked very happy and hugged Bai Qing's side tightly. Bai Qing changed into his own clothes, and he looked like a tomboy again. Tong Lu asked Bai Qing to make him a bowl of sobering soup, but Bai Qing ignored him and only cared about talking to Xia'er. Yan Zhu followed behind, extremely gentle.

Xiao Yi suddenly remembered something and asked everyone,

"When I borrowed wine yesterday, I heard that it was a good day for the youngest son of the village chief to marry his daughter-in-law, so let's go and have a lively time together. ”

Yan Zhu said softly,

"The people in the village have not been waiting to see our mother and wife for a long time, and besides, they have not been invited, so I am afraid that it will be difficult for people to go, so it is good not to spoil the happy events of others. ”

When Xia'er heard that she was going to marry a daughter-in-law, she was so happy that she couldn't wait to ride on her brother's shoulder and rush over to watch, but when she heard her mother say this, she stood on the spot and didn't dare to move, but her mind was flying, and she had already traveled to the wedding scene.

Tong Lu saw Xia'er's expression, and he already understood, and glanced at Xiao Yi, Xiao Yi understood, turned his head and said to Yan Zhu,

"Sister Yan, take some gifts at will, let's take a look together. When Lu Lu lifts the old village chief to the sky, everything will be easy to say!"

Yan Zhu shook his head and smiled, thinking that this younger brother had also played behind his ass back then, and he had hugged him many times, he was married, and it would be fine to send something to the past, not to mention that he didn't necessarily have to appear at the scene, just watch it from the outside. So, she went back to the house to prepare her things, and Xia'er's face turned rosy, as if she was not sick. Tong Lu winked at Xia'er, and Xia'er stuck out her tongue at him, making several people laugh. Not long after, Yan Zhu prepared some dried fish and a few festive silk cloths,

"It's shabby. ”

Xiao Yi shook his head and smiled,

"The heart is the most important thing, and this!"

After speaking, he took out a silver bag from the money bag on his waist and handed it to Yan Zhu.

This is left to him by Xiao Lang's father before he died, Xiao Lang said that he didn't want to have anything to do with that person, and this silver money was used for nothing, so he gave it to the village chief as a gift. Such a big piece, he is only afraid that he will be so happy that he can't keep his mouth shut, how can he refuse us. ”

When Qin Lang heard this, he smiled,

"Although that person is not a good person, this money is different in the hands of a good person, Aunt Yan, you just take it!"

Yan Zhu took the silver tael, only to feel that it was extremely heavy, she carefully put it in her arms, and tidied up her clothes and hair, and then beckoned everyone to go to the village chief's house together.

The village chief's house is a mile away from the Yan family, and he can see the crowds over there from a long distance, and he wants to come to the village to help. A few people walked closer, only to see the middle one, dressed richly, with a wrinkled face piled together, thin but in good spirits, Xiao Yi saw this old man and knew that it was the village chief. Tong Lu Xizizi stepped forward, and praised the old man violently, so happy that the old man couldn't close his mouth, and the old man didn't have time to ask him what his surname was, and he praised the village chief's son again, he spoke very well, seemingly boastful, but convincing, and actually said that the people around him were stunned, like listening to a story. The village chief couldn't stop laughing, and the only two front teeth were about to be laughed out.

Xiao Yi and a few people followed behind Yan Zhu and walked slowly, and when the village chief saw Yan Zhu, his face changed greatly. Tong Lu saw that he didn't like it, so he said in his ear,

"Village chief, on this happy day, so many people come together, you don't have to be embarrassed, not to mention the bride price, if you don't let in, I'm afraid it's a little stingy. There are also a lot of people with prominent backgrounds around here, which makes people laugh at it. It's better to be generous and invite in, there is a holiday, let's end it another day. ”

When the village chief heard this, he hurriedly stepped forward, and Tong Lu saw him like this, presumably he was also sophisticated, and couldn't help but laugh secretly. Yan Zhu took out the money bag and handed it to the village chief, who was shocked and hurriedly found someone to collect the bride price and arrange a seat for several people. Yan Zhu said some words of blessing and brought a few people into the table. The surrounding villagers saw that the village chief was like this, and it was not easy to say anything, but they just sat down far away and did not look at each other. A few people sat at a table, and no one came back to the remaining two empty seats. Yan Zhu was a little embarrassed and wanted to go first, but was stopped by Xiao Yi and a few others.

It was still early, and most of the guests from other places had not yet arrived, and Xiao Yi and a few people were very uncomfortable sitting in the seat. wanted to walk around, but was afraid that Yan Zhu's mother and daughter would be bullied, so they had to say something to each other. Bai Qing carried acupuncture with him, and he also took the time to prick a few needles in a few places on Xia'er's body, Bai Qing's acupuncture skills were very good, and Xia'er did not feel pain, but felt a little relaxed after the puncture.

By noon, the guests arrived, and the entire village chief's house was surrounded by distant relatives and neighbors. The village chief talked and laughed with a few people with heads and faces, and was very proud. After another half an hour, Xiao Yi's stomach growled, and he beat the table leg with chopsticks in boredom, making a rhythmic sound. Bai Qing nodded lightly to the rhythm of his beating.

Suddenly, a shout came,

"Village chief, it's not good, village chief, someone has robbed the kiss, the bride has been snatched away by the Nayi people!"

The village chief was startled and stood up,

"How can there be a Nayi here! Let's be clear, how many people there are!"

The messenger slowed down, and then said,

"There seemed to be only one, who picked up the bride, snatched the horse, and disappeared as soon as the smoke slipped. The man was dressed in a disgusting clothes, and the boys who picked up the relatives went to chase him, so I'll come back first to report the news!"

As soon as the village chief's feet were light, he was about to fall, but fortunately, his eldest son was beside him and held him up. Xiao Yi and a few people originally came to see the excitement, but now it's good, it's even more lively. Yan Zhu was a little anxious, and said to Xiao Yi,

"Xiao Yi, I know that you are excellent in martial arts, can you help the village chief. This happy day, make it like this, don't let him lose all his old face!"

Qin Lang was a little angry,

"How the village chief treats you two on weekdays, I think this is also his own self-inflicted retribution!"

Yan Zhu shook his head and said,

"He is unkind, and we cannot be unjust. Xiao Yi, look ......"

Xiao Yi smiled,

"Sister Yan, didn't you say that I would go too, Xiao Lang, come with me?"

Qin Lang nodded and stood up with Xiao Yi. Xiao Yi shouted loudly,

"Village chief, do you have a fast horse, give me one for each of you, and I promise to bring your new daughter-in-law back." ”

When the village chief heard this, he looked at Xiao Yi, and felt that he was full of heroism, his figure and bearing were extraordinary, and he knew at a glance that he was a person who practiced martial arts. He didn't think much of it, and immediately asked people to find the horses. Xiao Yi Qin Lang took advantage of this gap to come to the messenger, asked the person where the crime occurred and the direction of escape, and learned from the villagers about the terrain within a radius of several miles. After a while, someone led two horses, and Xiao Yi Qinlang jumped on the horse and ran out as if flying. Tong Lu played a role in stabilizing the morale of the army at this time, he stood on a square table, first said some auspicious words, and then told the story loudly, at first the people were full of voices, and gradually turned into one person's words, he finally did what he wanted to do. Listening to everyone's reactions, it seems that the response is not bad. The guests at each table were told by him, but no one mentioned the robbery again, and everyone pricked up their ears, just afraid of missing a word. And even more gathered around his table, as if they had heard it earlier. Xia'er snuggled in Bai Qing's arms, listening to Tong Lu's nonsense, laughter gurgling,

"This Brother Lu Lu is really amazing, the stories he tells are so interesting, it's like I've experienced it with him. Sister, do you think that giant python really has such a thick waist, and will spit in people's faces!"

Bai Qing smiled and replied,

"Of course it's fake, your brother Lu Lu not only knows how to tell stories, but also makes up stories, you have to listen to him, I'm afraid it won't be the same for three days and three nights!"

The village chief looked at Tong Lu and felt a lot of relief in his heart, hoping that the newlyweds would come back soon and make the wedding a success. The village chief looked for someone to bring tea and pour water, but no one was willing to move, he was angry, but he was not easy to attack, so he had to do it himself.

Tong Lu is very good at mobilizing the atmosphere, answering with everyone from time to time, this wedding scene seems to have become a teahouse, but this storyteller has an excellent mouth, and he looks handsome and extraordinary, several girls who have reached the age of marriage throw flattery at him from time to time, but he just didn't see it, and still kept telling interesting stories. It's been almost an hour, and the guests have eaten a little bit, but they don't feel hungry, and listening to him is not boring. Tong Lu slowly became a little emotional, and scolded Xiao Yi in his heart, blaming him for not coming back for a long time. Just as he was thinking about it, a sound of horses' hooves came, Tong Lu stood on a high place and saw it really, he was overjoyed and said,

"Relatives and friends, our protagonist is about to play, everyone is noisy! When the wedding is over, the little brother will tell everyone about the good show of the monkey king and fairy!"

When everyone heard this, although they were a little unsatisfied, they thought that it was someone's wedding after all, so they got busy according to what Tong Lu said. The wedding was now back to its previous bustle, and the village chief exhaled and muttered,

"God forbid, or I would really lose face!"

After a while, the team arrived to pick up the relatives and horses, and Xiao Yi Qin Lang jumped off the horse, handed the reins to others, and slowly walked back to the Yan Zhu table. Xiao Yi sat down and laughed, squeezing his eyebrows at Bai Qing,

"Qingqing, when will I be able to marry you like that kid!"

Bai Qingqiao's face turned red, and she said angrily,

"Who's going to marry you, huh!"

Tong Lu shouted from the side,

"I'm too busy today, or tomorrow, let the village chief give you two a lot of money, and we'll have a good time." Doing him such a great favor today, this little thing must be a little thing!". A few people joked for a while before stopping.

Qin Lang didn't smell it, poured a sip of tea, and seemed to be still reminiscing about the situation just now, only to hear him sigh and laugh,

"Brother Xiao Yi is really amazing, this can also be, haha, haha, it's really amazing!"
