The God of Killing has returned, and the gods have made changes, not to mention that Li Xiuyuan now possesses the power of yin and yang.
Looking at Zhang Liang who was neither human nor ghost, Li Xiuyuan sighed slightly.
He calmly ordered: "Leave Xiaohu and his mother here, and the remaining three will be sent to your house to settle down first, and then the master will be brought here."
Now that these two guys are married, they have to have a wedding drink today.
Zhang Liang was stunned. Seeing that he didn't look anxious at all, he couldn't help shouting: "Brother, help me, Shuzi is leaving soon."
Li Xiuyuan waved his hand and pulled Xiaohu towards the backyard.
At the same time, he said: "Hurry up and get what you have to do, and book two banquets when you are done. Don't be reluctant to spend money. I will pay for it. I will have a wedding wine at noon."
Now Zhang Liang finally understood, and realized what was wrong. He took his hand and asked, "No, you are not my brother. Who are you?"
Xiao Hei looked at Zhang Liang like an idiot and pushed him out of the store.
While shouting: "Go and get the teacher quickly, don't bother my brother to save people."
After hearing Xiao Hei's answer, Zhang Liang finally understood a little bit, and twisted and said: "Even if you become a monster, you are still my brother Zhang Liang."
"Xiao Hei, come here, this is your brother Xiaohu. From now on, he will live in the same room with you. He will make do with it for today and then buy a bed tomorrow."
After saying that, he took Mr. Yan to another room and said with a faint smile: "I will make do with this place for a few days. After a few days, I will tear down the yard and rebuild it."
Mrs. Yan didn't expect that the shop in the front was not big, but the yard in the back was so spacious.
He couldn't help but smile and said: "Sir, go rescue people first, and I will clean up the house myself."
Li Xiuyuan waved his hand, looked at Xiao Hei and said with a smile: "Now that I'm back, your sister Shuzi can't die even if she wants to."
Xiaohu took Xiaohei's hand and smiled: "Brother Xiaohei, do I want to go to the academy to study with you in the future?"
Xiao Hei chuckled, pointed to a closed room and said with a smile: "There is also Sister Shuzi, wait until brother wakes her up."
After saying that, he took Xiaohu and dived into his room. When his brother came back, Xiaohei didn't need to worry about anything.
It was half past noon, and the spring rain was still falling from the sky.
When Zhang Liang took his wife to the restaurant, the waiters from the restaurant had already delivered two tables of sumptuous meals, and they smelled the aroma as soon as they got off the carriage.
Entering the living room in the backyard, a table of wine and food was already placed, and the other table was naturally sent to Zhang Liang's house.
Shuzi, who still looked a little pale on her face, was already sitting at the table. She waved to Zhang Liang and said, "Teacher, please sit at the upper table, as well as eldest brother."
"Okay, teacher, please sit down at the table." Zhang Liang patted his chest and calmed down his breath before replying.
Shuzi also nodded vigorously, stretched out her little hand and pulled Zhang Liang tightly, never letting go. She knew that Zhang Liang was her only support in the world besides her eldest brother.
The Li Xiuyuan in front of her was her life-saving brother, so there was no need for her to express her gratitude in words.
Her life was his, what else could she say?
Although she was in a coma these days, she was conscious, including when she went to worship with Zhang Liang.
Li Xiuyuan asked Mr. Yan to sit down, pointed at the Master and said: "This is the Master, the teacher of Xiaohei and the three of them, and will also be Xiaohu's teacher in the future... This is Xiaohu's mother..."
After introducing everyone's identities in a few words, Li Xiuyuan finally raised the wine glass in his hand and said with a smile: "Fortunately, I came back in time, so I can still drink Zhang Liang and his sister's wedding wine."
The master looked at him and sighed, and said leisurely: "Speaking of which, it took you a little too long to go back this time, right?"
Li Xiuyuan looked at Xiaohu and said with a smile: "The main reason is that I picked up a disciple on the way, so I was delayed a bit."
The master looked at Xiaohu and smiled: "You are Mr. Li's disciple, and you will be my student in the future. Reading and writing also require hardship."
Xiaohu chuckled and said, "Sir, Xiaohu must not be afraid of hardship."
Zhang Liang shouted: "Let's eat first, I've been hungry for several days."
Shuzi smiled when she heard this and said softly: "Husband, you are not shy when speaking. Teacher and brother haven't said you are hungry yet?"
The Master stroked his beard and sighed again, looked at Zhang Liang and Shuzi and said, "Although you are my students, Shopkeeper Li is your reborn parent."
Shuzi blushed when she heard this and said, "Sir, he has become about the same size as Shuzi. If Xiaohei hadn't been here, I wouldn't have been able to recognize him."
Li Xiuyuan looked at her and smiled: "Tomorrow Xiaohei will take Xiaohu to the academy, and Shuzi will stay and rest for half a month."
】
At the moment, he doesn't dare to let Shuzi and Zhang Liang go back home, even if they are newlyweds.
Even he was not sure about the newly restored vitality. He had to put it under his eyes for a few days before he could rest assured.
Zhang Liang nodded heavily: "As long as Shuzi is fine, I will listen to you in everything."
Li Xiuyuan shook his head, pointed to the next door and said, "Buy the house next door first tomorrow, I will be useful."
Zhang Liang patted his chest and said, "This matter will be taken care of by me."
…
Spring has gone and my husband has returned, and it is the beginning of summer again.
After nearly two months, Li Xiuyuan bought the previously vacant house next door and moved Xiaohei, Xiaohu and Yan, including the entire winery, into it.
No. 47 became an empty house, not even a tank of wine left.
Li Xiuyuan asked Zhang Liang to come forward and supervise the work himself, demolishing the entire No. 47 to the ground without leaving a single piece of wood.
Xiao Hei is not surprised. As long as his brother comes back, he will feel at ease.
Xiaohu goes to the academy by car with him to study every day, which saves Yan Shi a lot of thought. Now when she is bored, she just sits in the shop next door and sells wine.
Just when Zhang Liang couldn't figure out what Li Xiuyuan was going to do, Li Xiuyuan asked Craftsman No. 47 to dig a huge deep pit at the original site.
Then the custom-made black stones were buried in the big pit for two months.
By the beginning of autumn, the pit at No. 47 had been built into a two-story cellar with the hardest black stone that could be found near the imperial city.
Only then did Shuzi realize that her eldest brother was going to use this cellar to slowly store wine.
It's not over yet. While the cellar was being built, the black stones he customized did not stop. The attentive Yan discovered that each stone was carved with the same pattern.
When the autumn wind blows, black stones are used to build the backyard, walls, and front shop in the same style as the original ones.
If he hadn't looked closer, he wouldn't have been able to tell that No. 47 Wine Shop had been rebuilt.
By the time the Mid-Autumn Festival passed and a thin layer of frost began to fall in the early morning in the Imperial City, the shop at No. 47 had been redecorated with ironwood.
Now when I walk into the wine shop, I can't tell that it is a house built with black stones.
Even the couplets on both sides of the door are still the same as those at that time, and the signboard above the door is still the same word "Xiandai".
The entire No. 47 was burned by Li Xiuyuan with a fire of ignorance, and instantly it looked like a century-old store.
Before the first snowfall, before Xiao Hei and others moved in, on a starry night, Li Xiuyuan sat alone in the newly built yard.
With a wave of his hand, the entire structure from the two underground cellars to the shop yard and walls above ground was activated into a complete formation.
A great formation that can survive thousands of years and several rains.
Like Xingyuan in the small town on the Fuchun River, the entire roof of No. 47 is now capped with black stone strips.
In order to be consistent with the architecture of the Imperial City, craftsmen were asked to build the entire roof with iron wood, which looked no different from the style next door.
Zhang Liang rushed to order all the furniture again, because the previous furniture had to be left in the yard next door.
On a light snow day, there were dots of snowflakes floating in the sky.
Early in the morning, the waiters hired by Zhang Liang moved the wine vats from No. 46 to No. 47, along with Yan's and Xiaohu's belongings.
Xiaohei and Shuzi moved here early, and when they were cleared at noon, Yan's two maids and the clerk also moved here from Zhang Liang's house.
Seeing that the whole family was finally living together, Mr. Yan finally smiled with satisfaction and said, "I don't need to worry about cooking from now on, sir."
Li Xiuyuan smiled and said: "Tomorrow, the gate of No. 40-6 will be blocked with stones. Everyone should use No. 47 to enter and exit. It will be safe this way."
Although the current No. 46 is not as strong as No. 47, it is also protected by a formation. Even the two maids and the clerk live in it, and they are safe and comfortable.
That night, after hearing the news, the Master followed Shuzi to the backyard of the wine shop.
Looking at the renovated courtyard in front of him, which had not changed much, the Master asked in confusion: "Is it necessary to spend so much effort to rebuild this courtyard?"
Li Xiuyuan smiled quietly and said: "The previous courtyard was not very strong. I was afraid that it would not be able to withstand the wind and rain for a hundred years. Now I can store wine under my courtyard."
Li Xiuyuan has been thinking about this since Old Man Zhang dug a wine cellar in the Taoist temple on Luoxia Mountain.
It was good now. If he and Xiao Hei really wanted to experience different eras in this world, take a dip in the long river of time, and build a quiet nest, that would be his real idea.
As long as the formation here is not destroyed, no one will be able to enter this courtyard hundreds of years later.
After listening to Li Xiuyuan's explanation, the Master smiled thoughtfully and said, "Shopkeeper, you can see so far!"
Li Xiuyuan slowly raised his eyebrows and said softly: "If you accidentally turn back one day, at least there is still a place to stay, right?"
When Zhang Liang, who was sitting nearby, heard this, he opened his mouth and shouted: "So you and Xiao Hei are afraid of poverty?"
Zhang Liang, who reacted instantly, finally remembered the winter clothes that year, when he went to the Prime Minister's Mansion to propose marriage but was rejected, and Li Xiuyuan and Xiao Hei were boiling water in the snow on the roadside.
At that moment, I couldn't help but be filled with emotion. I looked at the Master and said with a smile, "Teacher, you won't believe it, how I found these two guys on that snowy night..."
When Xiao Hei heard that he quit, he took Shuzi's hand and said, "If I didn't have my brother, Sister Shuzi wouldn't marry you."
Xiaohu didn't know what happened to his husband in the past, so he thought about it and said, "Brother Zhang Liang, you are not allowed to bully your husband."
Zhang Liang was stunned, looked at Li Xiuyuan and asked: "I said, where did you pick up such a precious disciple? How about you pick one up for me another day?"
Li Xiuyuan looked at the master and laughed.
After thinking quietly for a while, he looked at Zhang Liang and said, "You are not worthy of being a teacher now. You should first make up for your wasted studies with the teacher."
Master didn't expect that Li Xiuyuan would get involved with him at this time. After some mental calculation, he had no choice but to start training.
He said to Zhang Liang, Xiao Hei, and Shuzi: "Even if you have broken thousands of books here, it is not as good as the shopkeeper who has traveled thousands of miles in Daqin."
The Master knew in his heart that Li Xiuyuan accompanied Xu Fu to the East China Sea, then followed Zhang Liang to Dayan, and then escorted Miss Xiangfu to the Great Wall.
So much so that the experience of going to the depths of the desert outside the Great Wall and meeting Xiaohu was what the three of them lacked.
Mrs. Yan was worried about her son's cultivation and couldn't help but look at Li Xiuyuan and asked: "Where will you go next, sir?"
Li Xiuyuan shook his head and said, "Even if Master takes the three of them on a trip next year, I will never leave the imperial city again."
Xiao Hei's heart moved, and he somewhat understood what his brother was thinking.
Since the elder brother doesn't want to go out and walk around, maybe the two brothers will leave Daqin soon.
As soon as Xiaohu heard that he was going to travel with his wife, his heart couldn't wait for the coming spring to bloom.
Only Shuzi was smiling. Now she not only had a husband, but also a big brother who saved her life.
For her, it seems that this winter is the beginning of her new life.
If winter comes, can spring be far behind?
