Cherry Blossoms Upon a Wintry Sword - Chapter 66
He Xieyi talked with Lin Rufei for a while while holding the eye-catching big bag on his head. From the wine Lin Linfei liked to the food Lin Linfei liked, the two became more and more speculative and excited. He Xieyi simply wanted to get up from the bed and drink with Lin Rufeiiu.
Fortunately, although this brother He Shuangyi is not very reliable, as a younger brother, He Wanxiang is still very calm. When he saw his brother wanted to jump up, he grabbed his brother’s shoulder and pressed him back abruptly: ” Lin Gongzi’s head hurts too, so let him go. “
Lin Rufei was busy, saying that his head hurts too.
“Oh, let’s forget it.” He Wanxiang’s regretful expression was full of emotions, and said, “I still thought that Lin Gongzi had a good drink. It’s been a long time since I drank it.”
Lin Rufei heard that he boasted that he had a good drink, and said bitterly, “How did he see that … I have a good drink?”
He Wanxiang scratched his head: “I have never been drunk before I lay down. Since Lin Gong can stun me, it must be a good drink.”
As soon as this came out, Lin Rufei and He Wanxiang both stared at the bag on Hexieyi’s head for a moment, but they did not say anything, but changed the subject. Lin Rufei stiffly stunned outside and hot Sunshine said that the weather is good today. It is a good day to sleep. Since He Gongzi has a headache, he should take a good rest first. He will not bother. After waiting for freehand, Lin Rufei and He Vientiane slipped out.
After leaving the room, the two looked at each other and couldn’t help laughing.
He Vientiane shook his head and said, “My brother … ha ha ha ha.”
Lin Rufei also smiled, saying that Hexieyi is an interesting person, no, to be precise, the whole He family is very interesting.
The two were chatting and going out, but heard a rattle of horseshoes, Lin Rufei looked for it, but saw a person gallop past and headed for He’s home. This man entered Hejiabao, but he did not slow down or plan to dismount. The He family on the side of the road divided and avoided, and showed dissatisfaction with the man. Lin Rufei also noticed that when He Wanxiang saw the man, his expression changed slightly, as if he was indifferent.
In these days with He Wanxiang, Lin Rufei never saw such a negative expression on his face. However, he didn’t mention Ho Vientiane.
The two were about to leave, but a fierce quarrel erupted behind them. Lin Rufei turned his head and saw that the galloping man was stopped by the servant of He’s family. At this moment he was angry: “Why didn’t he see me?” Is that how you and your family will die? “
“There is something wrong with the owner.” The servant reached out and stopped him. “Sir, please go back.”
“Something? How could it be back!” The man said angrily. “I don’t think he wants to see me!”
The servant didn’t speak, so he held him coldly.
When the man saw that the servant was not going to let go, he looked around, but actually fell his eyes on Lin Rufei and He Wanxiang. Lin Rufei secretly said in a bad voice, and surely the man rushed to them in a few steps, saying: “I know You, you Ji Hetian’s son He Vientiane, right? “
Ho Vientiane didn’t answer, holding his chest with both hands and returning an indifferent look.
The man stared at He Vientiane for a moment, but quickly gathered up courage, and said loudly: “What the **** is going on in your house? There are monsters eating people on the road. You don’t care!”
He Vientiane said, “I can’t control this. Go to my father.”
“If I could find it, I would have found it long ago, but your father would not see me!” The man was resentful. “That demon is eating so many people!”
He Wanxiang crooked his head and said, “I didn’t eat it, what did you do to me?”
The man was half-dead with this sentence of Ho Vientiane, and he wanted to say something, but He Vientiane waved his hand, and said impatiently, “Go to my father with anything, I can’t control that much.” Then he left without giving this man a chance to speak again.
Lin Rufei followed He Wanxiang and walked away. Before he noticed, the man twisted his body and continued to entangle with his servant. It seemed that he would also see He’s owner anyway.
When he went to the place where the person could not see, He Wanxiang sighed and said, “Lin Gongzi is not strange, this is not something we don’t want to care about, but it is really complicated.”
Lin Rufei said: “You mean the demon in the official way?”
“Yes.” He Wanxiang said, “I was told before that there were several demons in the Three Realms on the official road. The He family sent people to the past. Who knew that the demon’s cultivation was not just three realms, he disciples He’s disciples. He was seriously injured. “He said with a gloomy tone.
Demon monsters from the terrible continent often flow to Yaoguang, and it is also common for monks to drop demons and remove demon monsters. However, the demons have a strong physique and the cultivation of the Three Realms can already be worthy of the monks of the Five Realms. Fortunately, the practice of demons is not easy, and the number is very small, otherwise human beings may be destroyed.
“More than three realms? How much is that?” Lin Rufei was surprised.
“I don’t know, my father didn’t say.” He Wanxiang touched his nose and hesitated. “But my father told us not to take part in the matter and said he would handle it, so I don’t know exactly how.”
Lin Rufei appeared thoughtful.
“Forget about it,” said He Wanxiang, “Lin Gongzi, look at your face, don’t you go back to rest?”
Lin Rufei nodded and said yes, his head is indeed still faint, and it is naturally best to rest for a while.
So He Wanxiang took him back to his residence and told him to take a good rest before leaving.
Lin Rufei casually ate something and padded his stomach, and then lay back on the bed, chatting with Gu Xuan, and falling asleep without knowing it.
Gu Xuandu gazed at Lin Rufei’s sleeping face for a long time, and after confirming that he was asleep, he slowly got up and flew out of the window.
After sleeping for a long time, Lin Rufei thought that it should be dark when she woke up, but when she saw that the outside was still bright, she staggered the floating flowers and asked her when it was at this time.
“My son, it’s time for my son.” Fuhua answered, “My son is hungry. Would you like to get up and eat something?”
Lin Rufei said: “Time is up?” He sat up on the bed and looked out the bright window, thinking he had an illusion.
“I don’t know. Something seems to be glowing.” Fuhua said, “It started to light up in the evening. At first we thought that the family had lighted the bonfire. If we look closely, we don’t think the bonfire looks like this . “
Lin Rufei went to the window and looked closely, only to find that the golden light was emitted from the room of Hejia Ancestral Hall. This light showed a pure golden color, which was completely different from the general fire light, but it made Lin Rufei Think of the color of the sun. At this time, it was already a child, but because of this light, the entire sky was illuminated, just like daylight.
Lin Rufei said, “I’ll go out and see.”
Then he changed his clothes and went towards the light. This light really came from the shrine. At this moment, many members of the He family had gathered outside the shrine, but their faces were not afraid, but full of excitement, and they were discussing what the tone was intense. Lin Rufei listened to a few words, and then vaguely understood what happened. It turned out that the sassafras tree in the shrine was the result, and hundreds of iron and gold walnuts were formed in one breath. The golden light emanating from the iron and gold walnuts made the entire He family look like daylight and attracted everyone’s attention.
“Why is Lin Gongzi here?” Someone patted his shoulder. Lin Rufei turned his head and saw what he wanted.
He Xieyi’s head was still carrying the huge red envelope, now standing by the side watching the lively.
Lin Rufei said, “Oh, I saw this light after waking up, so I thought about coming over and seeing it.”
“It’s the walnut tree that bears fruit,” He freehand explained. “Vientiane took you in to see the bear tree?”
“Seeed it.” Lin Rufei nodded.
“That’s good.” He Xieyi said with a smile, “Look at one more look.”
“How do you say?” Lin Rufei felt that there was something in the words.
“Hmm …” He freehand said, “The material pole will decline?” He reached out and held Lin Rufei’s shoulders again, and said if he wanted to go in for a while, there were not many trees with walnuts. Since Lin Rufei happened to be a guest at his house, that was his fate.
Lin Rufei said: “Convenient?” He always felt that this was a private matter of He’s family. He was an outsider.
“What’s this?” He Xieyi said indifferently. “Anyway, you can’t take it off. It’s good to show you more envy.”
Lin Rufei couldn’t help laughing, “So too.”
He Xieyi led Lin Rufei to the shrine. Although the guards did not know Lin Rufei, they still knew He Xieyi, so no one blocked it. The two entered the backyard of the ancestral hall unimpeded. Lin Rufei saw a lot of He family members, and He Jitian, who was standing in the middle of the crowd.
Compared with He Xieyi’s bland expression, most He family members were very excited at this time, and they were eager to try. He Jitian was talking to them. Lin Rufei was so far apart that he couldn’t quite understand.
He Xieyi said, “Don’t worry about them, let’s watch the walnut trees.” Then he rushed Lin Rufei into the backyard.
As soon as he entered the yard, Lin Rufei’s eyes saw the strikingly sapling tree. At this time, the dense ash tree was covered with dense iron and gold walnuts. The golden dark lines that had been densely spread on the trunk before had spread to each leaf. These dark lines gave the beautiful ash tree a beautiful golden light, which looked different at first The living thing is like a delicate sculpture, which is extremely beautiful. The most amazing thing is that this golden light is not dazzling, but is very soft, making people look away.
He is free to read with relish, saying that in his life he can see the appearance of the sassafras tree, which is really worth it.
Lin Rufei mumbled, “Why did you suddenly get walnuts?”
He freehand glanced at Lin Rufei: “Maybe … met someone I like?”
Lin Rufei laughed and said, “I must have liked it.”
“Uh-huh.” He nodded freely.
The two of them looked at the walnuts, and the He family had already been eager to try. He Wanxiang didn’t know what to come out of it, and stretched out to Lin Rufei’s shoulder.
Lin Rufei was taken aback by his shooting. After hearing his voice, he felt helpless: “The eldest son said to show me in to see walnuts.” He found that He’s family likes to say hello, and it’s not humbling I patted the shoulders first, and then said that the relationship is better, and I just started to scratch my neck.
“Oh.” He joked, “looks good?”
“It looks good.” He freely nodded.
The two brothers showed obsessiveness at the walnut, and they watched it with interest. From time to time, they also judged which walnut should be bigger, and the taste must be good.
“I have never eaten such a delicious walnut in my life.” He Xieyi, the only person in He’s generation who has eaten iron-gold walnuts, is now imparting experience to his brother, “You pick them later Remember to choose a big one with more meat. “
Ho Vientiane said, “OK!”
“I think the one in the upper left corner is particularly large.” He freehand smashed his mouth. “Come on, find a position in front, don’t be preempted by others.”
He Wanxiang nodded, greeted Lin Rufei and turned away.
Lin Rufei said: “Aren’t you going?”
“I? I won’t go.” He freehand said, “I have eaten three, it’s enough.”
What he said so indifferently made Lin Rufei look at him a little bit. Everyone knows the usefulness of this walnut. Of course, the more the better, the better it is. Now, even if he is in the first place, I am afraid it wo n’t Someone dare to beak. But he showed little interest, and became a spectator with Lin Rufei.
Lin Rufei and He Xiangyi are talking here, and the He family has begun to queue for walnuts.
Looking at such a group of big men, while excited, and carefully lined up, there is indeed some joy. Lin Rufei also saw He Jitian standing outside the crowd to maintain order, but it surprised him that He Jitian’s expression did not have much joy, but it was more bland. From the expression point of view, it was He Ho Freehand is somewhat similar.
Finally, the first He family walked to the tree, and reached out to touch the first iron-gold walnut.
Everyone was holding their breath, Lin Rufei was also inspired by the atmosphere, and was slightly nervous. It was just that when the man’s hand held the walnut, the iron-gold walnut that originally seemed to be crumbling and about to bend the branches was motionless. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t take it off.
There was a sorrowful noise in the crowd, and the man raised his hand and tried two more, but the result remained unchanged. With a long sigh, he turned and left, dejected.
“It’s a pity.” Lin Rufei also felt very sorry and sighed.
He Yiyi shook his head and said, “Everything can’t be forced.” He was open-minded.
The He family walked one by one towards the linden tree. Unless they were able to remove the walnuts, everyone could only try three times. That golden walnut dazzling makes people unable to resist the temptation. If only two or three of them can blame their bad luck in the past, it is really regrettable that these hundreds of iron golden walnuts cannot be picked off. Already.
“In the year I picked, I had good luck.” Looking at the loss of his family one by one, He Xieyi casually talked about the year, “I was the biggest one, so the first one came in. There were three walnuts in that year. I picked it three times, and all of it was picked for me. “He paused and continued,” The rest of the people have no chance to be next to the walnuts, you know, this kind of thing, although everyone’s mouth Don’t say, but there will be mustard in my heart … “
After all, even the chance to try was deprived, and it was normal for some uneasiness, and Lin Rufei could understand their mood.
“But fortunately, there are six walnuts soon on the linden tree.” He said freely, “This is actually very strange. Under normal circumstances, it takes at least several decades for the linden tree to bear fruit again, but this time , But haven’t arrived for ten years, just in the spring of this year, they gave birth to six. The people in the clan are all happy. Only my father thought it was bad. I didn’t understand it at first. I understand it today. “
“Understand?” Lin Rufei looked at him.
“When something goes wrong, there must be a monster.” He freehand said, “The He family has been relying on this tree for centuries to prosper for hundreds of years. It seems that in the days to come, we must find another way.”
What he said was bland, but also with some regret, Lin Rufei heard the meaning in his words and showed some surprise.
“You don’t have to worry about that much.” He freehand pinched Lin Rufei’s shoulders again, grinning, “Can people still be suffocated by urine?”
“So too.” Lin Rufei also laughed.
Unconsciously, the person who picked the walnuts had already gone halfway, but none of the walnuts had been picked off, and Lin Rufei finally saw He Vientiane. He Wanxiang looked dignified and could see some nervousness. He took a deep breath, walked slowly to the front of the tree, slowly reached out his hand, and held the first walnut. Everyone’s eyes fell on He Wanxiang’s body, watching him slightly hard, click, the walnut fell off in response, and easily fell into his palm.
“Oh !!!” The people present cheered violently, and saw that someone finally picked off the walnuts, and everyone was jumping for joy.
“Good boy!” He Xiangyi watched his brother successfully pick the walnuts for the first time, exposing ecstasy, and said, “I have the vision, and I have picked the most meat!”
Lin Rufei couldn’t help crying and laughing, thinking that your family was too real.
He Wanxiang looked at the walnut in his hand, ecstatic, carefully put it in his pocket, took a deep breath, and then reached out to the second walnut. This time, it was still picked without any twists and turns, and then the third, the fourth, when he picked the fifth, there was no other voice, everyone held their breath. , Looked nervously at Ho Vientiane.
However, his luck ended when he picked the sixth one. No matter how hard Vientiane was, the sixth walnut still remained motionless. Even if Vientiane broke out the blue tendon because of excessive force on the forehead, it stayed still, as if it were cast iron. The average.
Seeing this, He Wanxiang had no choice but to give up, but he bulged his pockets, but told everyone that his gain was enough.
“Huh … I didn’t see that this boy was really hidden!” He Xieyi stared at him with bright eyes. “Perhaps their words were right, I really blocked their chance.”
Lin Rufei laughed: “Don’t think so, after all, if he picked walnuts back then, there is no such opportunity today.” It’s clear.
He Wanxiang, who had picked the walnuts, calmly left the crowd, walked to them, and Shen said, “Brother, I picked five!”
“See! It’s my good brother!” He freely patted He Wanxiang on the shoulder.
Ho Vientiane said, “Brother, I picked five!”
He freehand said: “See …”
Ho Vientiane said, “Brother, I picked five!”
He Xieyi was suspicious, and finally felt that his brother seemed to be out of order, so he reached out and shook in front of He Xieyi, but when he saw He Vientiane didn’t blink, he said it again in the same tone: … “
Just before the words were spoken, he took a freehand knife and passed out.
Lin Rufei was stunned by this development: “This …”
“It’s okay.” He Xieyi calmly waved his hand, “This is so exciting, just sleep a night.” After that, he threw He Wanxiang’s body directly to his feet, and the other stepped on In Ho Vientiane’s pocket, he explained, “Prevent others from stealing his walnuts.”
Lin Rufei: “…” The way your two brothers care about each other is really a little strange.
He Wanxiang was slap slapped by He Xieyi in the eyes of everyone, but no one was surprised. Everyone’s attention was on the sedge tree in front of them. With the beginning of Ho Vientiane, the lost confidence of the people was picked up again, and they continued to stare at the sedge tree with eyes like hungry wolves. Stare at a few walnuts.
But there are some things that ca n’t be achieved by thinking. Of the remaining He family, only one person picked one, and until the last one tried it, they never gained anything. It’s as if none of the more than a hundred walnuts were born to the family.
Seeing this scene, the people present showed regret.
However, at this moment, He Jitian, who had been standing silent next to him, suddenly appeared, and when he saw a shovel, he walked slowly to the tree. About his movements were too natural, and everyone didn’t react, knowing that he had dug directly into the root of the shovel tree with a shovel, and began to shovel the soil hard.
“Homeowner, what are you doing !!!”
“Dad, what are you doing !!!”
When the He family saw He Jitian’s actions, all of them showed horror, but it was probably because He Jitian was so powerful on weekdays that no one dared to step forward to stop it.
He Jitian raised his hand and wiped the sweat on his forehead, explaining: “In fact, I haven’t told anyone about it.” He shoveled the soil and at the same time he said to others, “Every generation of He ’s head Inherit an ancestral teaching about the sassafras tree. “
“What ancestral instruction?” Everyone looked at his movements and had a bad hunch in their hearts.
“It is the agreement between our ancestor and Heavenly King.” He Jitian said, “In the past, Heavenly King gave Hejia a tree to keep the Hejia century-old and prosperous, and at the same time established a rule with Hejia.” His voice was not It ’s big, but everyone at the scene can hear it clearly, “That is, on a certain day, when the beech tree produces hundreds of iron and gold walnuts, it must be cut off its roots and then take out the things under the tree.”
Everyone is dumb, some people still refuse to believe, and want to persuade He Jitian not to do this. After all, if so many iron and gold walnuts are available to any family, how many masters should there be.
In the face of this man’s doubt, He Jitian asked only one question. He said, “Can you take it off?”
Everyone had nothing to say.
“Have you tried it just now?” He Jitian said, “I have made an exception for you, let you try it one by one, and the result?” He said lightly, “No, I just picked the six belonging to He’s family. ? “
At this time, the fruit of the loquat tree is still fruitful, and the iron and gold walnuts are radiant, shining like a star.
There was silence in the field.
He Jitian said: “I know your thoughts, but there are some things that people with little fortune can’t pick up. Hundred pieces of iron and gold walnuts, our family is not blessed. If we want to take them hard, I’m afraid they won’t pay for them.” It looks rude, but has a delicate mind.
Lin Rufei did not expect such a scene. He actually watched He Jitian slowly digging out the Xu Shu tree. With the sudden fall of the Xu Shu tree, Lin Rufei felt someone on his shoulder. Holding it down gently, he thought it was freehand, turned his head to look around, but found that it was Gu Xuandu.
Gu Xuandu stood behind him, looking tired, dropped his head, and leaned his chin on his shoulder.
“What’s wrong?” Lin Rufei asked.
“A bit tired.” Gu Xuandu said, “But it doesn’t matter. Leaning on Xiao Chi for a while … will be fine.”
Seeing him like this, Lin Rufei also had some distress, so he stood upright and asked Gu Xuandu to put his chest on his back.
The author has something to say: Gu Xuandu: A little tired.
Lin Rufei: Eat six walnuts …
Gu Xuandu: Then replace the walnut with a small leek. After all, the small leek is aphrodisiac.
Lin Rufei: ………………
