Chapter seven hundred and sixteenth time is quiet(1/2)
As Shi Wu sent the brocade box as Dou Yi arrived in the imperial city, Fang Yi no longer doubted to prepare for many things to be promoted to a foundation-building monk next year.
Dragon robes and crowns were secretly sent to the top of Tongtian Ruyi Tower.
The transaction between Fang Yi and Zhang Ji was not like Emperor Kaiyuan and Yu Zhan. Emperor Kaiyuan worshipped Yu Zhan as his national teacher, and the two can be seen as Yu Zhan's vassal of Qin. In order to make a breakthrough, Fang Yi directly sold the destiny of Jin to Zhang Ji as a bargaining chip. This is also why Fang Jiao objected.
Zhang Ji, who was on the top of the tower, looked at the dragon robes and crowns he sent, and his mood was extremely heavy. His previous plan had been completely disrupted. Not to mention breaking the realm and cultivating the Nascent Soul Way, it would be a problem whether he could go back to the outer hidden world alive.
Zhang Ji looked at the southwest nervously and said, "Time is the same as fate."
Shi Wu was relatively relaxed during this period. After paying homage to Wei Yidao and Dazhuang Ahua that night, he returned to Xuanjia Village. The next day, he washed all the pots and pans in the kitchen of Lintao Pavilion, and bought various seasonings and rice and flour from the shop in Xuanjia Village.
Seeing Shi Wu's scene, Lan'er thought Shi Wu was going to attack the two chickens. Every time Shi Wu left the kitchen, she would stay by the chicken coop.
Shi Wu was too lazy to say anything to Lan'er. Later, he bought eggs from outside shops. During the past ten days, he personally took charge of the spoon and invited Xuan Haoran and his wife, Xuan Youxian, Erdan and others to come for dinner.
Xuan Haoran teased Shi Wu and said that he was preparing to reopen Lintao Hall.
Xuan Yuqiu and his wife Liu Fu returned to Xuanjia Village in the middle of the twelfth lunar month. This time, he not only negotiated with the outside towns for the sale price of surplus grain in Xuanjia Village, but he also asked about the news about Xuankuo around him, but he still found nothing.
After learning from Xuan Haoran that Shi Wu had returned to Xuanjia Village, Xuan Yuqiu quickly took Liu Fu to visit him.
In the hall of Lintao Pavilion, Shi Wu looked at the baby who was once held by Xuan Haoran and became an old man with white hair now. He sighed: "Every Qiu, sixty years have passed in a flash."
Xuan Yuqiu smiled and said, "Uncle Shi has not changed at all."
Xuan Yuqiu helped introduce him again: "Uncle Shi, this is my inner friend Liu Fu Fuer, this is Uncle Shi who I often mention to you."
Liu Fu knew Shi Wu's identity as an immortal, and she respectfully bowed to Shi Wu and said, "Liu Fu has met Uncle Shi."
"Don't be so polite, just sit down." Shi Wudao.
It was noon at this time, and Xuanzhu helped Xuan Youxian to come to Shiwu for dinner.
As soon as Xuan Yuqiu and his wife sat down, they stood up and saluted Xuan Youxian and said, "Good clan elders."
Xuan Youxian saw Xuan Yuqiu and his wife come back. He cared and said, "Have the price of yuliang agreed?"
Xuan Yuqiu nodded and said, "I asked Xuan Kui and the others to transport the remaining grain to Changling Town at the beginning of the year. There is a stone of grain there that can be sold for two more cents of silver than in Taiping Town."
Xuan Youxian smiled happily and said, "Not bad."
Xuan Yuqiu said, "Old clan, I heard from my father that there was a lot of trouble in the village. The son-in-law of the third family of Xuan also asked the immortals in the imperial city to come and kill my father?"
Xuan Youxian said, "With your uncle Shi here, your father will be fine."
Xuan Yuqiu said worriedly: "But Uncle Shi is leaving Xuanjia Village on the 26th day of the twelfth lunar month. I'm afraid..."
"Silly boy, will you not think of this? He has already given your father a backup plan for our village." After knowing the existence of Yue Tao Tree Spirit, Xuan Youxian is now more concerned than the sky. He touched his stomach and said, "Xiao Wu, Uncle Youxian is hungry, why don't you bring today's good wine and dishes."
Shi Wu said a word and went to the kitchen.
Xia Yinyin, who was with Lan'er in the backyard, saw it and helped Shi Wu bring Wen's food on the stove to the hall.
When Xuan and Qiu and his wife met Xia Yinyin as beautiful as fairy, they all thought she was Shi Wu's wife.
Xuan Yuqiu and his wife greeted her and said, "Hello Aunt."
Xia Yinyin's face turned red: "I am Brother Shi's junior sister, named Xia Yinyin."
Only then did Xuan Yuqiu and his wife realize that they had misunderstood and they apologized repeatedly.
Xuan Youxian said, "You just shout first, maybe now it's the future."
Xuan Youxian's words made Xuan Yuqiu and his wife stunned. Xuan Yuqiu came over and said, "Okay."
During this lunch, Xuan Yuqiu and Shi Wu drank very appropriately, so they accompanied Xuan Youxian to drink a few taels of mulberry wine.
Shi Wu saw Liu Fu want to speak many times at the dinner table but was stopped by Xuan Yuqiu. After everyone finished eating, Shi Wu asked: "Niece-in-law, your father-in-law and I are good friends who have grown up together since childhood. You should also call me Uncle Shi. Just say anything you want to say."
Liu Fu knelt down to Shi Wu and said, "Uncle Shi, I know you are an immortal. Can you help Brother Qiu find Kuo'er?"
Xuan Yuqiu wanted to pull Liu Fu up, but it was related to Xuan Kuo, so she broke away from Xuan Yuqiu's hand.
Shi Wu raised his right hand, and Liu Fu couldn't help but stand up. Shi Wu said, "Niece-in-law, you don't need to give such a big gift. I'll ask you my friends first."
Shi Wu used his spiritual power to send a voice down and asked Yuetao Shuling, "Yuetao, did you pay attention to where he went when Xuankuo left Xuanjia Village?"
Yuetao thought for a while and said, "In the northeast direction, he was also bowing inward at the entrance of Xuanjia Village."
"Northeast direction? He didn't go to find the three brothers of the Zhang family when he heard that there were gods in the imperial city of Jin, did he think so?" Shi Wu speculated.
Yue Tao Shuling agreed and said, "It's possible. Anyway, I heard from him that he must worship the Immortal Master."
"I understand, you can continue to practice. Thank you." Shi Wu said in a voice transmission.
Yue Tao Shuling smiled and said, "You don't have to be so polite for a trivial matter."
Shi Wu told Xuan Yuqiu and his wife: "My friend said Xuan Kuo was heading northeast. I think he might have heard that three gods came from the imperial city of Jin State, so he wanted to go over and worship them as his teacher."
Liu Fu excitedly said to Xuan Yuqiu: "Brother Qiu, let's go to the imperial city of Jin."
Xuan Yuqiu saw Liu Fu's anxious look, and he said distressedly: "Okay."
Shi Wu stopped the two and said, "Yu Qiu, I just speculated so much, and I can't make the right decision."
Xuan Yuqiu said, "Uncle Shi, we have been looking for him for three years. Now that we have the direction you give us, we have to try our luck no matter how we have."
Poor parents in the world, Shi Wu thought that if he had run away from home like Xuan Kuo and went to the world, his parents would have been so anxious to find him. Shi Wu said: "Do you have a portrait of Xuan Kuo? I will go to the Imperial City of Jin State on the 26th of the 12th lunar month. I will help you search in the city. If I find it, I will persuade him to come back. If not, I will also send you a letter."
After hearing this, Xuan Yuqiu and his wife hurriedly took out the treasured portrait of Xuan Kuo from their arms, and they said gratefully: "Thank you, Uncle Shi!"
Shi Wu glanced at Xuan Kuo, who looked seventy-sixth-slightly in the portrait, and he returned the portrait to Yu Xuan Yuqiu and his wife and said, "I have recorded his appearance. You just came back from outside, so go and rest first."
Xuan Yuqiu and his wife thanked Shi Wu again before returning home.
Xuan Youxian, who was sitting in the hall, told Shi Wu: "Xiao Wu, how do you find this sea of people?"
Shi Wudao: "If that kid is really in the imperial city of Jin, then he should be able to find it. If he is not there, it will be difficult."
Xuan Youxian patted Shi Wu's shoulder and said, "Xiao Wu, even Haoran doesn't care about that kid, so don't make things difficult for yourself."
Shi Wu smiled and said, "You don't know what kind of guy Haoran is? He is very soft-hearted. Although he says that his children and grandchildren are blessed, how he doesn't want his family to be reunited. I will do my best. As for whether they can meet again, it depends on their fate."
Xuan Youxian also laughed and said, "You must have this mentality at that time, and your father doesn't have to worry about you running out and tide the world all day long."
"Uncle Youxian, don't talk nonsense. I was very obedient when I was a child." Shi Wu refused to admit it.
Xuan Youxian thought carefully and said, "How come I remember when you were seven years old, your father said to me when he was drinking, saying that he wouldn't let you practice martial arts and said that you would have a few more words, and you ran into the hunting forest. Finally, Uncle A brought you back, and you were crying."
When Shi Wu heard this, he held his forehead with his hand and said, "My mother is right. My father really said everything after drinking."
Xuan Youxian stopped and picked up the crutch on the side and said, "Little Zhuzi, the clan elder is sleepy, help me go back and rest."
Xuan Zhu was still surprised that Shi Wu had such a past. After hearing Xuan Youxian call him, he said goodbye to Shi Wu and Xia Yinyin and helped Xuan Youxian leave.
Xia Yinyin smiled and said to Shi Wu: "Brother Shi, you can go and rest, I'll wash these dishes."
"Okay." Shi Wu blushed and went back to Ada's house. He was lying on the bed and comforted himself, "Who hadn't been chaotic when he was a child?"
The days in Xuanjia Village flow slowly like a stream. When the rising sun rose on the 25th day of the twelfth lunar month, Shi Wu ushered in his 79th birthday here.
Xuan Haoran came over early in the morning to pat the gate of Lintao Pavilion. After Shi Wu got up and opened the door, Xuan Haoran and his wife said first: "Xiao Wu, we wish you a day every year and a day every year."
Shi Wu hurriedly took twelve red spirit fruits from the storage bag and came out: "Thank you! Come on, six of them, six of them, six of them."
Xuan Haoran and Lin Jiaqiu were not polite to Shi Wu today. They took the Lingguo and prepared to go to the kitchen of Lintao Pavilion.
Seeing that the couple was carrying a basket of eggs and a large bag of brown sugar, Shi Wu said, "Haoran, why don't I do it."
Xuan Haoran refused, "You are sitting in the hall obediently. Today, you are the birthday star. According to the rules, someone must help you cook brown sugar water for you in the morning, so that you can pass by smoothly and roundly in the coming year."
After hearing this, Shi Wu had to sit down and say, "Okay."
Shi Wu said to Xuan Haoran again: "Let's cook a portion for Yinyin too. Even if Lan'er is gone, it is still sleeping, and it can't bear to eat the egg."
Xuan Haoran nodded and walked to the kitchen with Lin Jiaqiu.
Shi Wu sent a message to Xia Yinyin and said, "Yinyin, Haoran and the others will help me cook a breakfast dish for my birthday, so you can come out and eat it too."
Xia Yinyin walked out of the house and saw the golden morning glow falling on the yard outside. She was in a particularly good mood today. After coming to the hall of Lintao Pavilion, she bowed to Shi Wu and said, "Brother Shi, Yinyin wishes you all your wishes come true and your cultivation will increase day by day!"
Shi Wu took out two boxes of water-attributed gold dew and jade spirit flesh from the early stage of the Nascent Soul and said, "Thank you auspicious words!"
After Xia Yinyin received the spiritual meal jade box, she smelled a sweet smell.
Lin Jiaqiu first helped Shi Wu and Xia Yinyin get two bowls of steaming brown sugar water. She said, "You eat it first, Haoran and I will be ready soon."
Shi Wu gently stirred in the bowl with a spoon to let the heat in the bowl dissipate faster and also made the sweet smell more and more.
When Xuan Haoran and Lin Jiaqiu took their bowl of brown sugar water and got off, Shi Wu said, "Let's eat together."
Shi Wu took a bite of the water in the bowl and got the egg. The sweetness of the brown sugar water and the tenderness of the water made him feel like he was a child. Shi Wu suddenly laughed after taking a sip of the warm brown sugar water: "Haoran, I remember your birthday was on the sixth day of the September 2018."
"You guy has a conscience, I still remember it." Xuan Haoran also took a sip of brown sugar water and said.
Shi Wu said: "How could I forget? My father said that only who can get a bowl of brown sugar water on his birthday can get a bowl of brown sugar water on his birthday. My parents and grandpa Ah don't like to celebrate the birthday, so I can only look forward to yours. So every time you have a birthday, I will go to your house early in the morning to say good things, and come with you to get a bowl of brown sugar water on his birthday."
Xuan Haoran joked: "I said, how could you remember so clearly? It turns out that there is still this one."
Shi Wu said sincerely: "Haoran Jiaqiu, thank you."
Xuan Haoran smiled and said, "Eat yours, you're so polite to us."
The four of them talked and laughed and finished the two water in the bowl, and then drank the brown sugar water clean.
