13 Chapter 13: Village summer end festival (2/2)
”Young master‚ the village chief has been excepting your arrival for hours‚ please come in” The old man Led Feng Mei inside.
Along the way toward the main courtyard the old man treated him with extreme politeness. Feng Mei heard multiple voices of people coming from within the courtyard‚
As he entered the courtyard with little treasure‚ he saw the village chief sitting in a wood couch covered in luxurious silver designs and Fu ya and others sat around him‚ as they all joyfully chatted with each other.
As Feng Mei and little treasure entered the courtyard the village chief looked at them ”Ha‚ little treasure came along with brother Feng‚ come guys sit down‚ We were just about to start eating” saying this‚ the village head called out toward the nearby servants‚ telling them to start placing the prepared food on the jade tablet.
The village chief looked like a middle-aged man with wrinkles around his eyes‚ Feng Mei determined that the village head has reached level 6 physical tempering‚ having the same cultivation as him.
”I thank brother Feng‚ if it weren't for you‚ this zhang son would have definitely become a cripple or even worse‚ lose his life” The village chief kept on thanking Feng Mei.
”Uncle zhang must know‚ that we can't tolerate other people getting hurt and we have always been helping those in need throughout our lives” Feng Mei directly referred to the village chief as his uncle‚ giving respect‚ as he spoked out the cliche lines that he has prepared for this exact moment‚ while inwardly asking system about the remaining experience point needed to break the array.
«Host need 18000 experience point»‚ system replied to Feng Mei.
”Brother Feng and young Miss guards deeds of generosity have spread throughout the village‚ all the household of our Ju Hua village demanded me to ask you guys to stay in the village for three more days‚ as the village summer end festival will begin and the chrysanthemum flower planted along the river stream will bloom‚ I believe brother Feng Mei and young miss won't be disappointed by the tasty wine‚ beautiful scenery and sincerely hope that you guys will stay”‚ the village chief said
”Sure‚ why not since it's only three more days we will definitely stay and join in to have fun in the festival” hurriedly said Feng Mei without giving anyone else the chance to reply to the village head.
”Hahaha‚ since brother Feng has agreed‚ I can rest assured and tell the villager to start preparing” the village chief joyfully said.
”Brother Zhang‚ don't need to trouble the villagers about the meat‚ since I am in the village I will hunt the required beast”.
The village chief tried to refuse him‚ but how could Feng Mei let go of this chance of earning more good karma‚ he insisted on hunting beast until the village chief gave in.
Feng Mei and others finished eating and after some hours decided to leave the village chief residence.
As little treasure has fallen asleep‚ Feng Mei decided to carry him back to the inn. They left the village chief residence‚ came back to the inn. He gave little treasure to lady Yu Yan‚ who didn't sleep as she was anxiously waiting for her child return.
Feng Mei‚ Fu ya and her guards returned back to their rented courtyard.
The guards went inside their room to rest and sleep.
Feng Mei didn't feel like sleeping. He went inside the pavilion‚ with a small pond‚ near their courtyard and sat down to rest.
Gazing at the moon reflected in the pond silently‚ he reminded himself that the entire village and the life-like people are merely an illusion.
An illusion that will soon end~
