The feast was so sumptuous that all the townspeople could do.
During the banquet, there was a lot of drinking and drinking, and the people in the village asked about the details of the demon slaying.
Mu Haotian recalled the experiences of the past few days and felt a mixture of emotions. He did not want to mention too much. He only picked out some important points and talked about them briefly, but it was enough to amaze all the ordinary people.
In addition, Mu Dingzhen "accidentally" revealed his skills in the town earlier, and was regarded as the "Great Immortal of Dingzhen" by the townspeople.
Therefore, from beginning to end, no one questioned whether this matter was true or not.
Although Mu Haotian had a clear conscience, he felt really depressed and helpless when he thought about his master's ridiculous actions. Intuitively, he must have guessed it right. In the situation that everyone was looking forward to, even if he did not succeed in getting rid of the ghost boy, he would probably be forced to lie.
After thinking about it, Mu Haotian's mood fluctuated, sometimes he was happy, sometimes he was depressed, and sometimes he felt worried. However, he never noticed that Jing Ling looked anxious the whole time. She wanted to ask him several times, but she could never get the word out.
It’s time to have enough wine and food.
However, most of the people in the town still held red lanterns, and the avenues were brightly lit. Everyone sent the "Great Immortal of the Ding Zhen" and the "Demon Hero" to the outside of the local squire's courtyard before leaving.
The landlord here is the largest spice merchant in Zhengxiang Town, and it was he who asked someone to go to Daoxuanwuji Mountain to ask an expert to come out to slay the demons. At this time, he personally sent a gift of thanks, and after being introduced into the hall, he bowed with great respect:
"It's a humble house, but fortunately it has all the daily facilities. I'm going to wrong the Great Immortal and all the disciples to rest in this room tonight. These are just a few small gifts prepared to express my gratitude. They are not respectful."
It is said to be a small gift, but it is full of real burdens.
Mu Dingzhen was polite and polite, and he declined repeatedly but in the end he could not refuse the kindness, so he had no choice but to accept. With a few polite words at the end, he waved his sleeves to see the guest off, showing off the majesty of a dove occupying a magpie's nest.
The landlord originally assigned several attendants, but Mu Dingzhen dismissed them all on the grounds that cultivators needed to be clean.
After all the outsiders had left, Mu Dingzhen ordered Xiaopang to close the hall door. His eyebrows immediately twitched, his bright eyes rolled around, and their colors changed in an instant.
With a flattering smile on his face, his eyes shining brightly, he rolled up his sleeves and rubbed his hands together, how could he still look like an outsider?
"Tian'er Ying'er Yan'er, don't be dumbfounded, come on, come on! Open the things quickly and take a look."
After calling for a long time, only Xue Ying came to help.
Mu Dingzhen rolled his eyes, turned around and shouted to Mu Haotian and Yu Yan, who were full of contempt:
"Why are you all looking at me like this? Of all your senior brothers and sisters, some of them are prospering outside, but who knows how to give back to the sect and subsidize the family? Not Master, I have worked so hard , how can we support you bunch of white-eyed wolf boys?"
"Hey~~~The world is really declining, and people's hearts are not as good as they used to be!"
At the end of the speech, he sighed longly to cover his tears, and he looked like he was exhausted and burst into tears.
The two senior fellow apprentices were obviously used to his exaggerated behavior, and they still curled their lips and remained unmoved.
But the three new apprentices were so moved that they felt sorry for their master. They clumsily opened the burden boxes and boxes and placed them on the table.
Mu Haotian took a quick look and saw several pieces of jade, dozens of packets of local specialty resin spices, a whole box of bottles and jars of unknown contents, and enough of the yellow and white items that most suited the master's taste. Two big boxes.
Now that the world is in turmoil and the situation is difficult, this has been a very fruitful harvest.
Sure enough, Mu Dingzhen's face was full of smiles, and he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear. He took the tea cup from Jing Ling and drank loudly.
Yu Yan'er squinted at the table full of things and said with a strange voice:
"Wow! A mere small town rich man can give such a generous reward. If the ghost exorcism is accomplished, I don't know how many treasures the big tycoon in the city, Mr. Qian, can offer."
She was not opening the pot, teasing the master intentionally, waiting to see him puffing his beard and staring.
Unexpectedly, Mu Dingzhen was uncharacteristically uncharacteristic when he heard this. He didn't feel dissatisfied at all. He held the jade in his hand and said happily:
"What do you know about this little brat? People in the city are all very thieves, how can a country person be honest? Just look at this jade toad. You can tell it's top quality just by looking at the color. The base is heavy, tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk ! Now I can support three people."
Jing Ling and the other two had quite a big appetite, and they gorged themselves like tigers while eating. After the main table was in a hurry, they also plundered everything from the next table, which almost shocked everyone's jaws.
At that time, Mu Ding was really frowning, secretly cursing the three losers, regretting taking the job as his disciple, worrying that the gate would be empty in the future, secretly thinking for a long time, how to make the three of them work hard to earn money to repay their teacher's kindness.
At this moment, he pointed out the matter. It didn't matter that the little fat boy was used to being sloppy. He just smiled innocently, but Jing Ling's ears turned red. She peeked at Senior Brother Mu and lowered her head.
Mu Haotian touched her forehead to comfort her, but he was afraid that the master's unbridled words would make her even more embarrassed, so he said:
"Master, by the way, what happened in Joaquin City? What kind of evil spirit is this that even you can't deal with?"
He knew very well that although his master was usually dishonest, he valued the reputation of his sect very much, especially the art of catching ghosts and exorcising evil spirits that was his current bread and butter. He would never destroy his own sign for no reason.
He was confident when he set out, but he came back frustrated in Joaquin City. Moreover, according to Shuangshu's description, the master went shopping nonchalantly afterwards.
It is extremely abnormal.
Mu Dingzhen sighed and said:
"A mere ghost is not worth a penny...but it is really a man-made disaster and cannot be taken lightly."
Unlike Shuang Shu, Mu Haotian had always had high hopes from him, and he had already shown his ability to excel, so he gave an explanation.
However, these words were still unclear. Mu Haotian thought about it for a while and finally understood that the young lady of the Qian family must have been persecuted by demons. Her own small sect could not afford to offend her, so the master could only pretend to be deaf. Dumb.
Now that the new disciples are around, this behavior is inconsistent with his status as a master, so it's hard to explain clearly.
Mu Haotian was quite disdainful, but he also understood that not even the master could do anything about that person, and he was even more helpless. At the moment, he could only pray silently for Miss Qian.
Seeing that Senior Brother Mu was silent, Yuyan picked up the topic and chatted for a while.
She has a lively temperament and talks about everything without any taboos. She is not afraid of the master's majesty. She can make everyone laugh with just a few words.
Mu Dingzhen's hands were covered with gold and jade, and he was playing with them happily without bothering with her.
It felt like I was back on Daoxuanwuji Mountain, where the senior brothers and sisters were chatting at night. Now there were three more young junior brothers and sisters. Although the mountain gate was small, it was full of vitality like morning dew and spring breeze.
Mu Haotian's heart felt warm and warm, and he was about to talk to his master about his experiences in the past few days to see if he could unravel some confusions and discuss together how to deal with the "Sword Breaking the Sky Sect".
Suddenly I heard a knock on the door outside.
