Xiaocui played with the rifle a few times and returned it to the owner: "It's still fun to use a pistol."
Jia Rong led the crowd to the patriarch, and the villagers hurriedly knelt down.
Hurrying to help the old man up, Jia Rong smiled: "Everyone is welcome."
Seeing that he was kind, the patriarch felt relieved: "My lord, please follow me into the house to talk."
The villagers watched the master and his followers curiously, and they were not afraid when they saw the big yellow dog being honest.Qingwen and Xiaocui sparked their conversation, and followed them all the way into the patriarch's yard.
There are two stones on one side of the yard, with some plant ash in the middle, which seems to be a place for boiling water.
When I entered the main house, I saw two earthen stoves with some firewood neatly placed next to them.The room was a little dark, but the floor was clean.There is a room in the east and west, with straw curtains hanging on the door frames. Jia Rong followed the patriarch to the north kang in the east room and sat down.
The paper on the south window of the room had a few holes to bring some light into the room.
"Old woman, hurry up and boil water to entertain guests." The patriarch ordered his wife.
"Xiaocui, Qingwen, go and help her boil the water." Jia Rong sat on the kang.
The old man hurriedly said: "No, no, there is no reason to let the guests do it themselves." He stopped the two girls, found a stool for them to sit on, and went to the yard to boil water.
Zuo Qianhu and Guo Jia sat on the stools on the ground.
"I heard from Mr. Zuo about what happened in the village. I want to get rid of this river god for you." Jia Rong's face was serious.
"Thank you sir, I kowtow to you on behalf of my clan." The clan leader stood up and was about to kowtow.
"Don't be too polite. Anyone with a conscience will help him when he encounters such a thing." Supporting him with both hands, Jia Rong ordered: "Mr. Zuo, take the big yellow dog to the river to see the situation. If you meet a monster, kill him immediately." gone."
Zuo Qianhu immediately got up and cupped his fists to salute: "Of order."
He went to the yard and said, "Ergouzi, follow me."
The surrounding villagers were afraid of the knife on Zuo Qianhu's body, so they hurried out of the way.
There were bold villagers who wanted to follow and watch, but they were chased away by Zuo Qianhu. They got too close and were injured to the point of death and disability.
Zuo Qianhu got on the horse, and the big yellow dog ran after him.
After a while at the upper reaches of the river, Er Gouzi saw the mud and sand submerged under the river, and said with a smile: "The spells used are not very good, probably in the late stage of foundation establishment."
Hearing this, Zuo Qianhu was speechless, it was too shocking: "Breaking the spell, it will attract monsters to kill."
"Okay, I'll break its spell. Woah!" Er Gouzi cast the spell, and the river immediately flowed downstream.
Not far from the upstream river, water splashed, and a large green-yellow loach floated on the water. It shook its beard and said: "Looking for death, who dares to break my spell!"
"It turns out to be a big loach. What a blessing. Is there any tofu in your storage bag?" Ergouzi had eaten a small loach stewed with tofu, and he couldn't forget it.
"There are a lot of them. Lao Yin has prepared a complete set of things, and there are a lot of them. You will definitely be full." Zuo Qianhu smiled knowingly.
The loach spirit got angry and ignored himself, how could this be tolerated, and uttered the mantra, water arrows sprang up and rushed towards a person and a dog.
"Woof! Wang!" Er Gouzi shattered the water arrow with a spell, and pulled the loach's soul in with the soul-sealing pearl with the second sound.
The one-meter-long loach on the river suddenly went down the river with its belly up. Zuo Qianhu flicked the rope he carried with him to pick it up, found a willow branch and put it on his horse: "The children in the village like you, you can catch some pheasants. , I make beggar's chicken for them to eat."
"The children are so disgusting. They even touched my head. I won't catch it and feed it to them." Ergouzi was annoyed by being touched. A dozen pairs of children's hands touched him here and there, and the taste was sour.
"They have something to eat, so they don't touch you. When you drink for a while, they will watch from the sidelines and let me see how you eat and drink." Zuo Qianhu understands the psychology of children.
"What a fate, you are waiting for me here." Er Gouzi dispersed his consciousness.
After a while, Er Gouzi used magic to carry two wild deer on his back, and came back with a bulging sack in his mouth, and the sound of a pheasant came from inside.
"Put them all on the horse. A dozen pheasants and two big male deer are enough for you to work for a while."
"Go back and ask Xiao Cui to cut the venison and stew it in braised sauce." Zuo Qianhu prepared some venison for the children in the village.
Er Gouzi gave the prey to Zuo Qianhu: "Everyone in the village can get some meat. Xiaocui's cooking skills are so good. Let her cook the loach."
One person and one dog are busy, and Master Rong is suffering in the patriarch's house.
The patriarch took out the tea leaves he had collected to entertain him, brewed them in a rough porcelain sea bowl, and invited him to drink tea.
Jia Rong had never drunk tea with a musty smell. Looking at the old man's earnest eyes, she said a good word against her will.
There was a villager with good eyesight outside, who saw the river flowing from a distance, stared blankly for a few times, yelled, and ran to the patriarch's yard, shouting as he ran: "The river is coming, the river is coming! .”
The villagers were alarmed to check, and the village was ebullient, and everyone rushed towards the patriarch's yard, wanting to kowtow to thank the young and handsome master.
The patriarch heard the sound and went out to check the situation. Hearing the news that the river was coming, he laughed loudly. This year's food has been settled.
Everyone should kowtow to thank.
"Don't disturb the noble lord, you choose a representative to go in with me and kowtow to thank you." The patriarch said.
At the moment, everyone invited an old man who knew a few words to go in as a representative to thank.
Master Rong comforted him and burst into tears of gratitude. He went back and told the villagers about his wisdom and kindness. The villagers were grateful and discussed killing chickens and sheep to entertain the master.
After a while there was a lot of activity outside, Zuo Qianhu came into the house with a loach essence in his hand to report the situation: "Master, the river stopped flowing because of this loach essence."
The patriarch, Jia Rong got up and watched.
"I've never seen such a big loach, it turned out to be a disaster for the village." The patriarch exclaimed.
Master Rong looked around, afraid that ordinary people would have problems eating it: "The big yellow dog likes to eat this, so give it a reward. Why is it so lively outside?"
"The villagers killed the sheep and chickens for the master. I brought back two big bucks and a dozen pheasants, and they helped to deal with them." Zuo Qianhu explained with a smile.
Jia Rong was moved. Their life was so difficult, and they even killed precious livestock to entertain themselves: "You take out two big cattle that have been slaughtered, ten sheep, dried vegetables, shochu and good rice from Zhuangzi, and invite the villagers in the village People have dinner."
"The village that the master has helped, we should invite you to dinner. You should not invite us again, so we will feel uneasy." The patriarch was very grateful.
"Today I killed the murderous loach spirit. I feel happy. It's a bit boring for me to enjoy fine wine and food by myself. It's more interesting for the whole village to drink together." Mr. Rong is good at this. What's rare is that he is in a happy mood.
"Thank you for the reward, sir." The clan leader was overjoyed. The fish in this place are the fish in the river.
"Patriarch, you are welcome." Jia Rong was in a good mood, and said with a smile, "Xiao Cui, go and help Mr. Zuo."
Xiao Cui agreed to go to the yard with Zuo Qianhu.
