After several days of purchasing, the Southern Xinjiang group was ready to reopen Yijian Villa. However, Xue Tang and his men still need to be sent away before Lu Fengbai can take his people.
At this moment, everyone in Yijian Villa gathered outside the north city of Hangzhou. From a distance, it can be divided into two batches.
The people sitting on the horse were naturally Xue Tang's comrades who went south with him, and on the other side were Lu Fengbai and Ye Dangting who came to see him off.
Naturally, Lin Manliu and Chong Ying would not be absent from such a matter. Just after listening to Lu Fengbai's instructions, Xue Tang tilted his head back.
"You two little kids, you are too big to run around. When you return to the south next time, don't be such a little kid!" Chong Ying yelled: "Go away! Let's celebrate the New Year again, He must be taller than you!" Xue Tang raised his finger and muttered loudly with a smile on his face: "You kid... use your talkative energy more on practicing swordsmanship!" Chong Chong Ying immediately responded: "Brother Xue needs to practice less, he is already old, remember to find a third sister-in-law for the brothers! Don't patronize the whole way back to camp!" Xue Tang listened to the boy in pink. If you say anything, you will get off your horse and come over to give him a brain-destroying blow.
But only halfway through the movement, he turned back again. The third owner of Yijian Villa imitated Chong Ying's tone and shouted.
"Feng Bai, Chong Ying is just criticizing the mulberry tree! Don't care about it!" Lu Fengbai shook his head helplessly. It was like this in the villa... When he picked one out alone, it was normal.
But after catching two, something became a little strange. Lin Manliu was watching happily, but he was slapped on the shoulder by the old liar behind him.
Well, you have to be the peacemaker! The boy in a short shirt said: "What Chong Ying said is actually true. Master Xue needs to be more careful on the way to the military camp this time!" Lu Fengbai also said: "Indeed, although there are evil spirits returning to the north this time, Take the lead, but you still can't take it lightly!" Xue Tang clasped his fists and said, "Third brother must keep this in mind!" As he spoke, he looked further back.
It was in the direction of Ye Dangting and Shiyi. The man in yellow shirt raised his hand and pressed twice. Xue Tang nodded as a sign, then turned his horse's head and led his entourage northward.
Lin Manliu and others had been watching these figures disappearing into the bamboo forest before they were willing to look away. This separation, I wonder when we can see each other again?
Or where to meet again? Lu Fengbai said: "Now that we have sent off our third brother, we should prepare to go west!" As the man in white robe said, he turned around and returned to the city first, followed closely by Ye Dangting.
Lin Manliu looked at the two of them side by side. They were both about the same height. But whenever the two of them talk, the old liar always leans forward slightly and tilts his head deliberately, like a child.
Even when he spoke, he always used some playful words, which made Lu Fengbai sigh one after another from time to time. Eleven also looked at the young man and reached out to pat his disciple on the head.
"Probably it was in front of Feng Bai that he could be like this...the idle second village owner who didn't care about anything!" Lin Manliu responded: "Such an old liar is actually a bit more cute... ." The woman in black scratched the boy's head and continued to speak.
"The eldest is quite a young man, and yet he's still like this... Our little Manliu can't imitate him!" The boy in a short shirt immediately responded: "I won't imitate! I won't imitate!"
"Our little Manliu is so obedient!"... By the time everyone returned to Yijian Villa, four or five carriages had been placed at the front entrance.
The utensils are almost the same, except for the two carriages for people to ride in, and the carriage behind them.
Most of them are items needed on long journeys. Chong Ying trotted forward without even looking at the carriage in front of him. He rushed straight towards the carriages carrying utensils.
"This car belongs to me! From now on, it will be driven by Hero Chong Ying!" the boy in pink shouted. As he spoke, he climbed over to the edge of the driving car and sat down, holding the reins tightly in his hands.
Lin Manliu took a closer look and realized that he was truly worthy of being a Chong Daxia... This choice was to pick the carriage with pots and pans. When he lit a fire to cook, he was the first to know. He is a hero who worships infants.
Jiang Qingze, who was helping Ji Ting clean up here, walked down the steps and looked at the boy in pink. The sister from the Miao Village spoke up and asked: "From now on, I have to ask Junior Brother Chong to take good care of us guys who eat!" Chong Ying nodded and said, "Sister Jiang, don't worry! No matter what thieves block your way, don't think of bad things." There are pots and pans in my car!" This reply made everyone laugh.
Sister Jiang, who was nearest, held her belly with both hands and smiled broadly. Lin Manliu naturally laughed too. When he looked at the master beside him, Eleven held out his hand to the young man.
The woman in black looked at him with a smile, and the boy in short shirt also held his master's hand tighter. According to the previous arrangements, Master will also go with him this time when he travels west to southern Xinjiang.
But the master's destination is the Valley of the Buried Swords... Ye Dang heard a voice saying: "This trip to the west, protect your master!" Lin Manliu said in response: "I will protect my master!" Listening to the two people During the conversation, Eleven rolled his eyes at the two of them.
"Do you think I'm the girl who doesn't want to have sex with you? Forget it if you don't go yourself. Why did you leave it to arrange it for Manliu?" Ye Dangting had no choice but to laugh out loud: "Isn't Manliu grown up? Well, as a man, you should learn to speak these words..." Lin Manliu also followed the words and said: "Manliu is not a child anymore!" Eleven said disdainfully: "Then what I know how to lead is What’s that kid’s hand?” The woman in black said, lifting the boy’s arm up.
Lin Manliu stepped on his toes, and he was no different from his master. Only then did Eleven realize that in just one year, his disciple had really grown a lot taller.
"When did our little Manliu grow so tall? But... he still needs to keep growing!" Ye Dang heard a voice saying: "It's almost there. There aren't many people of the same age who are much taller than Manliu. !" Eleven snorted twice and ignored Ye Dang at all, and continued to look at Lin Manliu.
I heard the woman in black say softly: "Our sister Hanzhi seems to be able to grow a few more!" Lin Manliu's cheeks were slightly red, and he actually raised his toes a little higher.
"Okay, okay, stop teasing Xiao Manliu! He will grow taller, he will grow taller!" After hearing such consolation, the boy in the short shirt shrank back again.
In just half an hour, the decoration had been completed in front of the main entrance of Yijian Villa. The leader of this journey to the west is naturally Lu Fengbai.
The accompanying disciples were Lin Manliu, together with disciples led by Jiang Qingze and Chong Ying. There are also Eleven, as well as the old tribe of the Zhujianfeng Si family that was merged into Yijian Villa, and their destinations are also buried in the Sword Valley.
There were only about fifty people in total, which was even less than the number during the first trip. Lu Fengbai's explanation was that this trip to the west was at best an icing on the cake for the Liaoyuan Army and did not require many people.
At the same time, the number of people accompanying him is small, so if there is an accident, it is better to evacuate in time. Moreover, the return date of this trip to the west is unknown.
According to the estimate during the main hall meeting, it could be as little as three months and as much as half a year. In this way, more manpower will be left in the villa.
Therefore, whether it is Qing Lan, Su Miannuan, Shen Qingpei, or the two young Taoist priests Zhou Mo and Shen Adou, they will stay in the villa to assist Ye Dangting in handling matters in the villa.
Ji Ting needs to help Senior Sister Chen Qi prepare the city's defense together, so that he can contact the villa at any time and make timely countermeasures.
Xiao Xiao and Zhou Zhou, who were recalled earlier, had also been ordered to travel far away some time ago.
But what made Lin Manliu a little strange was the reclusive young man in red. The young man named Yu Huai was not assigned to anything, but he left the village on his own a few days ago.
He asked the old liar about this. At that time, Ye Dangting only explained that Yu Huai was appointed by Feng Bai to set up the village, and there was no further explanation.
Lu Fengbai was sitting in the front seat of the car. He opened the window frame and looked at the people standing on the stone steps of the main entrance.
"Let's go!" Ye Dangting and the disciples of Yijian Villa behind him looked at each other to see him off.
"Waiting for your early return!" Lin Manliu was riding on horseback, with a carriage placed between him and the old liar.
The young man repeated again: "I will protect the master!" Ye Dang heard the voice say: "Leave it to you!" It was just four short words, without the previous playful spirit, looking at the old liar The attitude is somewhat serious.
Lin Manliu nodded to him solemnly, then pulled the reins and rode forward. After taking a few steps, the young man looked back again.
It was discovered that Ye Dangting was not looking at them, and had turned towards the disciples in the village beside him. It looks like he is explaining something or arranging something.
Ji Ting, who was beside him, immediately clasped his fists and left after hearing this. Following closely behind were the other disciples, who also started walking towards the village and the city under the words of the man in yellow.
Until the end, only Ye Dangting was left standing outside the door. The window frame of the carriage beside Lin Manliu was pushed open, and Eleven's voice came out: "Don't look at him at this time!" The boy in a short shirt responded, and then withdrew his gaze.
Just as he looked away, he noticed from the corner of his eye that the man in yellow shirt was looking back at them. At this time, Ye Dang was laughing bitterly when he heard this.
When Lu Fengbai was here, he was the carefree second owner of the village, or he didn't even need to bear the name of the owner.
When I want to go out for a lake trip, I put a wooden paddle on my shoulder, look for a solitary boat on the West Lake, and ride it by myself.
When he wanted to go out for a sightseeing tour, he handed over the official business in the village to Ji Ting and Xiao Xiao, leaving a note and no one could care about him.
He is really as happy as a god, who doesn't envy these two village owners? But when Lu Fengbai was away, he had to be the second owner of the village who took everything into consideration and reviewed everything.
All trivial matters in the villa, no matter how big or small, must be reviewed by him without any omissions. Lu Fengbai was traveling far away, and he became the pillar. If he was still so idle, the Villa would not be able to go far.
Because he knew that people who traveled far away would often miss the current situation in the village. With everything put on the table, who wants to be the second owner of the village?
