C57 (1/2)
Nearly a thousand people was not a small number. Even if Lu Yang wanted to, he was powerless. There was simply no room for so many people in the small courtyard. Furthermore, Lu Yang took a look at the situation of the Sun Wu family. Although their courtyard was several times larger than the Lu Yang family's, taking in a thousand people was also a very difficult task.
On the other hand, when Tiehzhu heard that all of the Qingyang Town s had arrived, he immediately rushed back in a hurry and started searching the streets in front of the Violet Cloud Pavilion s. Upon seeing one of the familiar faces, he immediately went forward to inquire about his parents' news.
”Old Uncle Zhong, did you see my parents?” Tiehzhu came to the front of the old hunter and inquired.
”Old Li! Aunt Wang! Look, your Er Gouzi is here! ” Old Uncle Zhong immediately shouted towards the crowd.
A middle-aged couple with slightly gray hair immediately squeezed through the crowd. It was Er Gouzi's father, Li Dazhuang and Aunt Wang. However, in the short span of a few days, the two of them seemed to have aged quite a bit, and the white hair on their heads had also grown quite a bit.
Seeing Tiehzhu, he immediately scolded: ”Er Gouzi! Where are you going to die these days? ”You didn't even bother to inform us before you left, causing your parents to be unable to find you anywhere else!”
Li Dazhuang directly slapped Tiehzhu on the head and scolded: ”Little bastard, you are getting more and more out of hand! You even dare to run away from home! ”
Tiehzhu muttered, and said softly: ”Father! Mother! Stop fighting. Also, I am already a Beast-controlling Master, can you guys also call me by my real name? Brother Yang said already that Er Gouzi has lost his identity as a Beast-controlling Master! ”
”What?” What did you just say? ” Aunt Wang almost thought she heard wrong.
”Little bastard!” When did you learn how to deceive your father! ” Li Dazhuang's temper became slightly more violent, he raised his unique arm and blew lightly towards Tiehzhu's head.
”Father!” Your son didn't lie to you! I am really Beast-controlling Master now! If you don't believe me, ask Brother Yang! ”
”Where is Lu Yang? Did he really help you find the Spirit Guiding Pill? ”
Tiehzhu patted his chest and said: ”It's absolutely true! If you don't believe me, I'll have my War Pet carry you home in a while! ”
After all, this place was already packed with people. If one wanted to walk inside, they would have to squeeze their way through. Tiehzhu didn't dare to summon the huge bear. He could only squeeze out Li Dazhuang and Aunt Wang before daring to summon the fierce beast.
Looking at the lonely Old Uncle Zhong, Tiehzhu scratched his head and said to old hunter: ”Old Uncle Zhong, why don't you follow us home?”
old hunter's wrinkled face revealed a trace of a kind smile, and said: ”Forget it. ”I'm doing pretty good here. We can all take care of each other.”
Hearing Old Uncle Zhong's words, Tiehzhu could only bring his parents and squeeze out of the crowd. Li Dazhuang looked at Old Uncle Zhong's back. Although he was squeezed together with his fellow villagers, the rest of them were surrounded by a large group of people who were chatting together. There was not a single person around Old Uncle Zhong at all.
Sighing, he continued, ”Your Old Uncle Zhong is also a bitter person. Ever since he came into contact with Lu Yang, he has been disregarded by others in the town.”
Originally, it was the same with Aunt Wang's house. Very few people would come and visit them. It was just that just now, Tiehzhu had brought Aunt Wang and her wife away in front of everyone. He even said that he would let them ride the fierce beasts home, that the surrounding people all looked at them with envy, making this old couple feel extremely proud. However, only they themselves knew of the hardships they faced.
”Actually, your Old Uncle Zhong is also a good person …”
”This bunch of snobbish people!” How can he treat the Old Uncle Zhong like this! If they knew that Lee Xiu that bastard had been defeated by the Brother Yang, they would probably not dare to do such a thing! ” Tiehzhu said angrily.
”What!?” ”You said, Lu Yang defeated Lee Xiu!”
After all, Uncle Li and Aunt Wang were different from Lu Yang and the others. Even though they had stopped at Lu Yang's home, they would still frequently stay with their fellow villagers. After all, they were neighbors who had been friends for many years. Thus, the news of Lu Yang's defeat also spread among the common folk of Qingyang Town. The happiest ones were the people of Old Uncle Zhong and the rest. They had gone up the mountain with Lu Yang to hunt previously, but now that something like this had happened, they gradually distanced themselves from him.
”Didn't I say it before? That brat must have some future! Great Evildoer Lee Xiu, it's nothing! ” Old Uncle Zhong proudly bragged in the crowd and finally raised his eyebrows and raised his head. He regained his prestige in the town, and because of Lu Yang, he became even more respected. In order to thank Old Uncle Zhong for his help, Lu Yang had even invited this old hunter to his house.
The quiet little courtyard became lively all of a sudden. However, the news of the beast tide had always been like a black cloud hovering above Lu Yang's head, and would not disappear even after a long time.
It had already been a few days since Lu Yang revealed his attainments in the Rubbing Technique to the Old Man Feng. Lu Yang wanted to go back to the Violet Cloud Pavilion to see if this old man had brought the higher level Beast-controlling Technique. This way, Tiehzhu's strength might even increase a little. This way, he would have a better ability to protect himself when the beast tide approached.
Just as Lu Yang reached the door of Violet Cloud Pavilion, he was surrounded by a group of people. There were a lot of people, and all of them had a heavy killing intent, so Lu Yang immediately became alert.
Questioning: ”Who are you? What do you want to do!? ”
Seven or eight people encircled Lu Yang in the center, and then, they opened up a path. A richly dressed young man walked out from behind the crowd.
Arriving in front of Lu Yang, when Lu Yang looked at that person's face, he also felt a sense of familiarity. His mind worked at the speed of 3600 revolutions, and he immediately found a trace of a clue.
”Isn't that the youth who went into the mountain with Luo Wushuang?” Lu Yang finally remembered the youth in front of him.
