Chapter seven hundred and eleventh confidant what to ask(1/3)
When Xuan Haoran and Shi Wu arrived at Xuan Youxian's house, Xuan Youxian was sitting on a rocking chair in the yard talking to Xuan Zhu beside him.
When Xuanzhu saw Shi Wu and the others coming, he quickly got up and called for someone.
Xuan You said leisurely: "Xiao Zhuzhu, why don't you bring some stools for Grandpa Haoran and the others to come out and sit down?"
"Hey!" Xuanzhu obediently walked into the house.
Xuan You smiled and said to Shi Wu and the others: "Xiao Zhuzhu and I are very close. He often comes over to help clean up."
Shi Wu looked at the diligent Xuan Zhu and said, "This kid is pretty good."
"What you have in your hand is Sangluo wine!" Xuan Youxian recognized at a glance that what Shi Wu was holding was a wine jar containing Sangluo wine. This was the wine that he had been drinking in Lintao Pavilion for ten years and remembered it for sixty years.
, he happily stood up from the rocking chair without even taking the crutches beside him.
Xuan Haoran and Shi Wu were so frightened that they stepped forward to support him.
Xuan You caressed the wine jar lovingly, and said excitedly: "Xiao Wu, Haoran, let's go in and drink!"
Xuan Haoran said: "Uncle Youxian, it's still early, and the Jiaqiu vegetables haven't been finished cooking yet. When the vegetables are ready, Xiaowu and I will drink with you. Why don't you sit down for a while first."
Shi Wu also said: "Uncle Youxian, I will put the wine on the table first. Then Xiao Zhuzhu brought the stool, and we will sit and chat for a while."
"Okay." Xuan You sat down again while listening to the two of them.
Shi Wu put the sangluo wine on the table and sat next to Xuan Youxian.
Xuan Youxian asked Shi Wu about his life in the hidden world, and Shi Wu told him about his experiences in Feng Yuan Sect. Of course, Shi Wu excluded the parts related to killing.
After hearing this, Xuan Youxian sighed: "Uncle Youxian really didn't expect you to embark on the path to immortality. Xiaowu, are your father and the others also in the immortal world?"
"I'm not sure." Shi Wu replied.
Xuan You said thoughtfully: "Hey, when I see you, I will think of your father. It will be seventy years ago, and I really miss him."
Shi Wu, after all, said, "Uncle Youxian, when I find my parents, I will tell them that everyone in Xuanjia Village misses them."
"Then you have to hurry up. I'm afraid Uncle Youxian won't have much time left." Xuan Youxian laughed at himself.
Shi Wu injected spiritual power into Xuan Youxian's body, and he found that although Xuan Youxian's meridians and organs were aging, there were no signs of failure. Moreover, Xuan Youxian still had the medicinal effect of relaxing muscles and activating meridians in his body. He knew that Xuan Youxian's meridians and organs were aging.
Youxian had already taken the elixir he had given him before he left. Shi Wu took out ten jade boxes from the storage bag Zhao Xin had prepared for him and said, "Uncle Youxian, the ones in this jade box are for relaxing muscles and activating meridians."
Pill, if you take one pill every two years, there should be no problem in extending your life for another twenty years."
Xuan Youxian did not pick up the jade boxes, but asked Xiang Shi Wudao: "Xiao Wu, if I live another twenty years, can I see your father?"
Shi Wu thought for a while, but he couldn't give an answer. He could only say: "Uncle Youxian, at least I can think about it more often in these twenty years."
"Nianxiang. If I hadn't wanted to meet your father for a drink, I should have gone with my wife." Xuan You said casually.
Shi Wu called Xuanzhu over and said, "Xiaozhu, help Uncle Youxian put it away. Remind him to take one every two years."
Xuan Zhu looked at Xuan Youxian, but Xuan Youxian didn't say anything and he didn't dare to answer.
Xuan Haoran helped and said: "Uncle Youxian, this is Xiao Wu's wish."
Xuan Youxian nodded and said: "Put it away, little pillar."
Xuan Zhu then took the jade box and put it in Xuan Youxian's back room.
Lan'er, who was lying on Xia Yinyin's knees, couldn't sit still and said, "Shi Wu, I want to see what the spiritual beast that announces the dawn looks like."
"The spiritual beast that announces the dawn?" Xuan Youxian asked doubtfully.
Shi Wu smiled and said: "It's the rooster in the village."
Xuan You was stunned for a moment, he didn't think there was anything interesting about this kind of thing. But since it was Shi Wu's spirit beast who wanted to see it, he asked Xuan Zhu, who had placed the elixir, to take Lan'er to the chicken shed east of the kitchen.
This chicken shed is relatively simple, built with bricks and rattan around the east wall of the kitchen.
Xuanzhu introduced Lan'er: "Lan'er's fairy beasts, the two with sharp beaks and colorful feathers are roosters, and the seven squatting on the hay are hens with lighter feathers."
From the gap between the bricks and tiles, Lan'er saw two big roosters, arrogant and vigorous, patrolling back and forth. After they saw Lan'er, they stared at it motionlessly.
Lan'er only stared at them in novelty.
The two big roosters regarded Lan'er as a strange beast that had invaded the territory. They suddenly flapped their wings and croaked, trying to drive Lan'er away.
Lan'er was so frightened that he backed away. He remembered that Shi Wu said that the chicken could fly, and he was afraid that they would fly out and peck him.
Xuanzhu didn't expect Lan'er, a spiritual beast in the fairy world, to be afraid of roosters. He helped drive them away and said, "Go back!"
The chickens here are usually fed by Xuanzhu. The two big roosters stopped in place after Xuanzhu made a sound, but the hostility towards Laner in their eyes did not diminish at all.
"Don't be afraid, I'll bring you something good." After Xuanzhu finished speaking, he ran to the kitchen next to him. He scooped a scoop of corn seeds from the sack in the kitchen and handed it to Lan'er, "Here, you just need
Throw these corn seeds to them and they won't be aggressive."
Lan'er doubtfully grabbed a handful of golden corn seeds with his forelimbs, and after scattering them inside, the two big roosters who just wanted to fly out to peck at them, together with the seven squatting hens, rushed to peck at the corn seeds on the ground.
Seeds.
Lan'er said excitedly: "It's so fun."
Not long after, Lin Jiaqiu said to Xuan Youxian and the others in the yard: "We're ready to eat. Haoran, you and Xiaowu support Uncle Youxian."
Xuan Youxian used crutches to prop himself up, and then he said as he walked: "Your uncle Youxian is not that old yet."
Xuan Youxian, as the host, sat on the east side of the square table, and Xuan Haoran and his wife sat on the north side. Originally, Shi Wu wanted to sit with Xuan Zhu on the south side so that Xia Yin Yin could sit alone to make it more spacious, but Xuan Youxian said that Xia Yin Yin and Shi Wu were
If they come together, the two of them will sit on the same bench.
Xuan You spoke casually, and Shi Wu, a junior, naturally had no objections, so he and Xia Yin Yin sat to the south.
Xuanzhu, who just wanted to sit with Shi Wu, was a little disappointed.
Xuan Youxian asked Lin Jiaqiu to prepare a bowl for Lan'er under the table, with a stewed hen leg in it.
Lan'er said to Shi Wu with the sound of her heart: "Shi Wu, this is too cruel, you should give me a piece of dried meat."
Shi Wu replied with his heartbeat: "Isn't jerky meat meat? These chicken legs are tender and smooth. I'm sure you will like it after eating it."
Lan'er insisted: "Bring me a piece of dried meat first."
After hearing this, Shi Wu took a piece of dried meat from the storage bag and placed it next to the chicken leg, and then ignored Lan'er.
Xuan Youxian grabbed the wine jar and said to everyone: "I'm very happy that you can come to my house as guests. Since my wife left, my place hasn't been so lively for a long time. No matter who you are today, please come and have some."
.”
Xuanzhu asked in a low voice: "Elder of the clan, can I drink too?"
Xuan You said leisurely: "Yes. But you are still young. Just take a bite and taste it."
"Okay." Xuanzhu said happily.
Xuan Youxian opened the seal of the wine, and a mellow smell of wine hit his face. Xuan Youxian's heart trembled and he said, "This is the taste I miss even in my dreams."
Xuan Haoran said: "Uncle Youxian, let me pour it for you. This jar of wine weighs at least ten kilograms."
"I'll do it." Shi Wu stood up and lifted the wine jar.
Xuan You smiled casually and said: "Haoran, we are all old, let Xiao Wu do it."
Xuan Haoran did not argue: "Okay."
Shi Wu first fell for Xuan Youxian: "Uncle Youxian, just stop when you tell me to."
But until Shi Wu helped Xuan Youxian fill the bowl, Xuan Youxian didn't say stop. Xuan Youxian chuckled and said: "Your uncle Youxian has been thinking about this Sangluo wine for decades, how could you say stop?"
Well, let’s make this bowl of base today.”
Seeing that a bowl was at least half a catty, Shi Wu advised, "Uncle Youxian, how about you give it to Haoran even more?"
Xuan Youxian said reluctantly: "My uncle, who is over seventy years old, still drinks seven or eight taels in one meal at your house. I only have half a catty here, not much."
Shi Wu couldn't refute his point. He poured wine for Xuan Haoran again, but Xuan Haoran didn't stop. Shi Wu knew Xuan Haoran's drinking capacity, so he continued to pour wine for everyone at the table.
Lin Jiaqiu and Xia Yinyin both only ordered half a bowl. Xuanzhu stood up and held the bowl with both hands when Shi Wu helped him pour the wine. This was the drinking rule Xuan Youxian had taught him.
Shi Wu only poured a mouthful of wine for Xuan Zhu, and he said: "Xiao Zhu, the Sangluo wine brewed by my father is a bit strong, just taste it. This is a lesson for me. I didn't drink the wine to warm up back then.
Those jars of pine and bamboo wine that I used to drink are not enough for me now."
Xuan Zhu listened carefully, but Xuan Youxian couldn't help but laugh.
Xuan You said casually: "Xiao Wu, you can't blame anyone else. Your father gave it to my uncle himself, and I didn't even taste it."
Shi Wu also smiled and said: "I'm not blaming anyone, I just want Xiao Zhuzhu to slowly improve his drinking ability, and don't have to rush."
When Shi Wu filled up his bowl, Xuan Youxian raised his wine bowl and said, "Here, I respect you."
When Shi Wu and others heard this, they all stood up with wine bowls in their hands. Xuan You said hurriedly: "Sit down, I don't need to be so polite when eating and drinking."
Xuan Youxian said after Shi Wu and others sat down: "Everyone is willing to drink slowly."
Xuan Youxian knew Shi Wu's drinking capacity, and he was taking care of him when he said this. After Xuan Youxian finished speaking, he drank half a bowl of wine. The mellow and refreshing taste of Sangluo wine with a long aftertaste made him shout: "It's so happy!"
Xuan Haoran also praised: "The Sangluo wine brewed by Uncle Lintao is really strong!"
Lin Jiaqiu and Xia Yinyin didn't have the same taste. When they first tasted it, they just felt it was spicy and sweet.
Xuanzhu drank the whole mouthful of Sangluo wine in the bowl without hesitation, but he frowned immediately because he had never tasted such a spicy and burning feeling. He was too embarrassed to spit it out, so he had to swallow it directly.
