Push the door open.
After being away for more than two months, there was a gray smell in my home, but I felt at ease inexplicably.
After briefly tidying up and walking a few steps in the backyard, Li Chuan suddenly remembered the stones in the Bishui Ring.
I found a water tank and asked the other three to get some water back. Then I put the stone into the water tank. After that, Pang San and Gong Er arranged several simple formations beside the water tank and in the backyard, and also used some blinding techniques.
The whole house suddenly became refreshed.
He took out the Mingxian Pendant and knocked it.
A white light came over.
Yunqiao Township is very safe.
The boy went out to play with his friends.
After Li Chuan rested for a while, he walked out through the back door. A green patch of green spreads before our eyes. It is the season for transplanting rice seedlings. There are many people bending over and working in the fields. He took a few steps in the field, feeling the warm wind blowing on him, mixed with the smell of soil and rice fields.
Soon, someone noticed him.
It was a few kids, and when they found him, they ran over. Li Chuan recognized the leader, it was Lin Hao, the grandson of Old Man Lin's family. He ran out of breath and said, "Mr. Li, you are back!"
Li Chuan looked at him and said, "What's wrong? Are you afraid that I will give you homework? You haven't gotten into trouble these days, have you?"
"No, no," Lin Hao quickly denied. He said, "Our kite is hanging on a tree, and there is a cat demon on it who won't let us take the kite. Mr. Li, please help us get it."
"Cat demon?" Where do so many demons come from?
"Mr. Li is upright. As soon as you go, the cat demon will be scared away. We will go get it then." Lin Hao's plan was very successful.
"Take me over and have a look." Li Chuan said.
He is now wearing a cloak and carrying a Tianyin pot. Ordinary little demons cannot hurt him at all.
"Okay!" Lin Hao turned around and trotted to lead the way.
"Slow down, slow down!" Li Chuan shouted as he walked.
In the Four Gods Palace, his body was repaired by force, but for some reason, his physical strength was still not enough, and he would get out of breath after running for a long time.
Wen Guying is also puzzled by this.
Soon, Li Chuan arrived under the big tree Lin Hao mentioned.
He raised his head and saw a bird-shaped kite hanging on a high branch. The cat Lin Hao mentioned was still there, a black and white milk cat, curled up on the branch.
Cat demon?
Li Chuan took out the Mingxian Pendant, thought about it, and then took it back. You have to find time to "fix" it, otherwise it will be too inconvenient to use.
Then he shouted to the kitten: "Kitten, let go of that kite!"
The kitten meowed twice and barked several times quickly.
Li Chuan suddenly had an idea in his mind. Could it be that the cat stayed in the tree because it couldn't climb down?
At this time, Lin Hao handed an old branch to Li Chuan and said, "Mr. Li, use this to hit it and knock it down."
Li Chuan thought for a while and walked around the tree. He felt that he couldn't climb up, so he said, "You guys find a ladder, and I'll climb up and have a look."
After hearing Li Chuan's instructions, Lin Hao and the other children ran out again to find the ladder. After a while, a wooden ladder was carried over by them.
Li Chuan put the ladder on the tree, climbed up, then held on to the branches and slowly moved towards the kitten's position. The kitten saw him coming and meowed a few more times.
"Don't be afraid, I'll carry you down." Li Chuan moved forward again, and the branches trembled unsteadily, as if they couldn't support his weight. He adjusted his position slightly, stretched out his hands, and grabbed the kitten.
Soft and warm.
The kitten didn't struggle.
Li Chuan breathed a sigh of relief.
At the same time, the branch swayed a few more times. He glanced at the kite wrapped around the branch and decided to go down first and get the kite later.
Then, Li Chuan carefully held the cat and climbed down from the ladder.
"Cat demon!" Several children were holding branches and preparing for the attack.
"The cat monster is just an ordinary kitten." Li Chuan took the kitten in his hand and touched it a few times. The kitten's body slowly relaxed.
Li Chuan put the kitten on the ground. The kitten shook its body and swooped away.
"Isn't it a demon?" Lin Hao looked in disbelief.
"No, don't listen to the wind. It's rain. Where can there be so many monsters." As soon as Li Chuan finished speaking, he saw one of the children climbing up the tree.
He quickly warned: "Be careful, that branch is not stable..."
Before he finished speaking, he heard a click and the branch broke. Li Chuan immediately took a step forward and reached out to catch it. He caught it, and then the whole person was knocked to the ground.
I heard the screams and cries of children.
When he looked down, the child in his arms was looking at him with wide eyes. He was still holding the kite tightly in his hand, and seemed to be fine.
Then he checked his body. Well, it didn't hurt. Maybe it was because the cloak had lost its strength.
It is indeed very practical.
As soon as he got up, he saw many people gathered around him, including old man Lin and some other neighbors. He sat up and first checked the body of the child in his arms. It was very good, and he slipped away from him.
After those who gathered around knew the reason, Old Man Lin began to scold his grandson. The parents of the child who fell also grabbed the child and thanked Li Chuan with the child.
Li Chuan spent a lot of effort and finally got out.
Lin Hao and his friends were also free, playing and flying kites on the edge of the field.
Li Chuan wiped the sweat from his forehead and planned to go shopping in the market. After walking a few steps, he heard someone calling him, "Master Li, Master Li!"
I turned around and saw who it wasn't Manager Liu?
Manager Liu walked over quickly and said, "Master Li, you are back. My family members have been talking about you these past few days."
Li Chuan asked: "What's wrong? What's the matter?"
Manager Liu said: "It's okay, it's okay..." and then invited Li Chuan to sit at Zhang Yuanwai's house when he had time.
Li Chuan missed the food at Zhang Yuan's family very much, so after two days of rest, he went to visit Zhang Yuan's family.
Zhang Yuanwai was very happy to see Li Chuan. He invited Li Chuan to the study and gave Li Chuan some calligraphy and paintings he had acquired recently for evaluation. Li Chuan tried hard to hold back a few words, and Zhang Yuanwai just followed those few words. He praised Li Chuan a lot.
After chatting for a while, Li Chuan was left to eat.
Li Chuan likes all the dishes.
During the dinner, Zhang Yuanwai said to Li Chuan: "Nephew Li Xian, you are now an official, and you can no longer behave as usual." Then he said something about buying a house and land, "That house of yours" , the location is too remote and too small, there is no place to talk when the guests come, and there are no servants, it is really outrageous."
Li Chuan knew that what he said was right, so he agreed casually, "Yes, yes."
Zhang Yuanwai added: "You have to slowly pay attention to the land. Good land can't be bought only if you have money and want to buy it."
Li Chuan listened humbly.
Seeing Li Chuan's attitude, Zhang Yuanwai became more and more talkative and said, "I have a house in the county that has always been vacant. The location is okay, and my servants clean it every year. If you don't mind it, my nephew, you might as well Just live there?”
This is almost the meaning of giving.
After Li Chuan got the official post, Zhang Yuanwai Zhenger Bajie began to make friends with him.
When he first came here, he thought about living in the county, where it would be more lively and safer; now he thinks it would be better to live in a more remote place, where he can move around freely.
Seeing that Li Chuan didn't respond, Zhang Yuanwai continued, "My dear nephew, if I may offend you, it's time for you to start thinking about your marriage. Do you have a girl you like?"
Li Chuan was a little stunned for a moment.
Zhang Yuanwai persuaded: "When you go out to be an official, there must be someone at home to help you take care of the servants at home and the reception and transportation..." He also advised Li Chuan to have a baby as soon as possible, "To tell you the truth, I am here At your age, you already have two sons, but unfortunately, the eldest did not survive..."
Li Chuan never expected that in this fairy world, he would be forced to marry and have a baby.
He was a little embarrassed and said: "I...I haven't thought about this yet."
There are disadvantages to being an official. You can't focus on studying to block the sword.
Zhang Yuanwai laughed at him and said: "This is a serious matter, good nephew, don't be shy." Then he talked about several famous families in Chaobing County, saying: "These families all have excellent family traditions. Yes, if you are interested, I will go there for you."
Li Chuan thanked him sincerely and said, "My elders are no longer here. I'm really grateful that a member of the Communist Party of China is willing to mention me like this. It's just... I just got the official title and I have to go to the capital in the near future. I don't know when I will come back... …”
He also talked about not being able to get close to women for three years, "I entered the Qintian Prison, and I also want to have a career, so I want to wait a little longer to get married."
At this point, Zhang Yuanwai took the initiative to change the subject, "When are you going to the capital? I may also go there when I'm late. Do you want to go together so we can take care of each other?"
Li Chuan declined politely and said, "I have something urgent and I will leave in three to five days." Feeling Zhang Yuanwai's goodwill, he took the initiative to reveal some information, "I will borrow the fairy boat from the Four Gods Palace this time. It’s indeed urgent to go to Feiyang County and then to the capital.”
"Is it related to Xialin Village in Xiushan County?" Zhang Yuanwai asked.
Li Chuan admitted, "Yes."
Zhang Yuanwai nodded, "Then we can meet again in the capital if we are destined." Then he wrote an address to Li Chuan, "This is the address of my relative. When you arrive in the capital, you can visit him when you have time."
Li Chuan knew that Zhang Yuanwai had connections in the capital, and he vaguely heard that Zhang Yuanwai was a brother of his clan and was an official in the capital, although he didn't know what kind of official he was. So he solemnly accepted the address and said, "Thank you, Mr. Zhang, for your support."
"My nephew has a bright future, these are all trivial matters," Zhang Yuanwai smiled and asked, "Tomorrow I am going to Chongfu Temple to offer incense, my nephew, do you want to go with me?"
Li Chuan had already rejected Zhang Yuanwai twice in a row, so naturally he couldn't refuse a third time. Moreover, he also wanted to talk to Wu Kong, so he agreed.
