After finally finding the lychee forest, at the entrance of Yizhuang, Li Zhengyi and Wencai looked at each other, and the atmosphere was a little strange.
The strange guy wearing sunglasses in front of him looked at me with a strange look, and he was even more handsome than Qiusheng.
Talents can't help but become a little wary and dissatisfied.
"Oh, I came here specifically to visit Uncle Jiu."
When he heard that he was here to find his master, the guy's appearance became even more lazy.
After calling again, he said to Li Zhengyi: "Ah... Master is not here, you can come back tomorrow."
…
Is it such an unlucky thing?
Just when Li Zhengyi was about to leave with some pity, Wen Cai suddenly changed the subject and his tone became enthusiastic.
"Oh, by the way. In fact, the master will be back soon, why don't you come in and wait for a while."
What's the matter? Looking again, I found that Wencai's eyes were staring straight at the thing he was holding in his hand.
Sure enough, he looked like a silly apprentice. Thinking of the things he and Qiu Sheng did to deceive the master in the movie, Li Zhengyi couldn't help but laugh.
But it's here now, no matter whether Uncle Jiu is here or not, putting things down is still a kind of kindness.
Even if everything is eaten by the guy in front of me, it still counts as conquering the apprentice first, right? It should be able to make the subsequent planning less difficult or provide some help.
But when I think about Wencai's words and deeds in the movie, I think it's good enough if he doesn't do anything to help.
However, Li Zhengyi decided to put the things in first, so he picked up the oranges, bananas, pineapples and grapes in his hand and handed them over and said, "What about...?"
"I'll come, I'll come, I'll help you get it."
Speaking of Wencai, the guy was extremely enthusiastic and took the things from Li Zhengyi's hands, but he was a little evasive: "Oh, it's quite heavy. Come on, come on. Why do you take so many things?"
Seeing Wencai's playful expression, Li Zhengyi really wanted to say, "How about I take it back again" to tease him.
"Come on, come in and sit for a while, my master will be back soon."
Not sure if Uncle Jiu was really coming back soon, Li Zhengyi thought it would be good to go in and have a sip of tea to quench his thirst, so he followed Wencai into Yizhuang.
In the courtyard of Yizhuang, there is an ancient-looking lychee tree with a thick trunk and dense branches and leaves, about ten meters high, giving people a sense of vicissitudes of life.
The courtyard of Yizhuang is also decorated with some flowers and plants, giving it a peaceful and peaceful charm.
In the middle is a two-story building with a brick and wood structure, with several tile-roofed houses on both sides. The backyard seems to be quite large, but it is blocked by the house, so it cannot be seen.
He guessed those coffins should be in the backyard...
I couldn't help but look around with these curious eyes. I originally thought that there would be charms posted everywhere in Yi Zhuang, and mysterious things such as Bagua mirrors and peach wood swords would be hung.
But he didn't expect to see almost none of those things. At least what Li Zhengyi saw so far felt similar to the houses where ordinary people lived.
Just after entering the lobby of the two-story wooden building, I saw a painting of these three Taoist and immortal grandfathers.
Li Zhengyi took a second look and found that it was not the Sanqing portrait he had in mind. He didn't ask any more questions. He just sat on the chair next to Wen Cai's invitation.
"Come, sit down quickly. I'll pour you a cup of tea. My master will be back soon."
Wencai had already said this three times. It seemed that Uncle Jiu was coming back soon, so Li Zhengyi sat on the chair with peace of mind and prepared to wait.
At the same time, he also remembered that when he first opened the door, this guy clearly asked him to come back tomorrow. Li Zhengyi couldn't help but wonder, if this guy hadn't seen the gift he brought, would his trip have really been in vain?
If that's the case, he really deserves to be Uncle Jiu's good apprentice.
"Come, have some tea."
Soon Wencai made a pot of tea, poured a cup and placed it in front of Li Zhengyi.
He was not polite either. After walking for such a long time under the scorching sun, it was time to quench his thirst.
Like a cow chewing a peony, he drank it all in one gulp, and someone's eyes couldn't help but light up. Although he is not very good at tea tasting, this tea tastes much better than the one in his own house.
According to Uncle Jiu's diligent and frugal housekeeping style in the movie, this good tea was probably given to him by someone else.
It's just that Uncle Jiu's cheating apprentice didn't cherish the good things, so he took them out to entertain Li Zhengyi, a guest who also had no experience with them.
After drinking several drinks in a row, Li Zhengyi stopped temporarily.
Looking at the literary talent across from him who couldn't sit still for a while, he asked, "I wonder what Uncle Nine has been doing. Is he coming back soon?"
It should be said that Wencai and Qiu Sheng actually didn't have any bad intentions, they were just a little playful.
And relatively speaking, Wencai is more reserved in character, and many of his naughty and mischievous things were done under the guidance of Qiu Sheng.
After all, he had been taken by Uncle Jiu since he was a child, and he lived in Yizhuang, far away from the crowd, even in a sparsely populated wilderness.
When facing strangers, some awkwardness and awkwardness are inevitable.
I saw him scratching his neck unnaturally, and then said with a smile: "Oh, master, he was invited yesterday to host a wedding in Renjia Town. It has been so long, he must be back soon .”
Officiating a wedding?
Unexpectedly, a Taoist master like Uncle Jiu could do such a down-to-earth job as a wedding host.
He is really a hidden master.
While sighing, he also praised: "I have long heard that Uncle Jiu is willing to help others and has great magical powers. I have wanted to visit him for a long time, but I only took some time to come today."
When Wen Cai saw Li Zhengyi praising his master, there was a proud and proud look on his face.
But what the handsome young man wearing sunglasses said next made him feel a little surprised.
"And as soon as I met you, senior brother, I became even more convinced of the fact that I heard from others about Uncle Jiu being an accomplished person."
"Why...why are you too...?"
Seeing Wencai looking at him in surprise, Li Zhengyi smiled friendlyly, and then continued to say sincerely: "Me? I'm just an ordinary person in the world."
"But when I saw Senior Brother, you were so majestic yet approachable, I felt very cordial, so I couldn't help but call you Senior Brother. Senior Brother Wencai, you don't blame me for calling you that, right?"
After hearing these words, Wencai's expression was a little dull. This was the first time someone praised him like this in front of his face.
Since my talent is not good, I don’t work that hard. In addition, there is a senior next to him who is very fast at learning everything and whose looks are several times ahead of him.
Qiu Sheng usually listened to good things, but he was either ignored or scolded. This was the first time someone said that to him.
For a moment, Wencai had the urge to introduce Li Zhengyi as a confidant...
