Chapter 423 (1/2)
”Turtledove! I haven't eaten turtledove for many years. It's a good game!”
Yang's sister may be really hungry. Looking at the live turtledove on the tree, saliva appeared at the corners of her mouth.
”Don't talk and watch me catch them!” meow whispered.
”Miaomiao girl, wait first!” Yang Zhenling stopped Miaomiao: ”these turtledoves have red ropes tied to their legs. It should be the owner's turtledove. I don't know which Islander raised it. It can't be regarded as game! If you really want to eat them, you should also tell the owner's house in advance.”
”Brother, there is no family in the mountains and forests?”
Yang's sister looked at Yang Zhenling discontentedly.
”Don't tell me, there should be people here!”
Yang Zhenling stretched out his hand and saw a curl of cooking smoke rising on the hillside.
”On the other side of the mountain, if you go there, it will be a long way back! What's more, the ancient leader is hungry now. Do you have the heart to let your guests starve?” the younger sister of the Yang family said pitifully.
”It's okay. We're not hungry.”
Although she was constantly called sister, this pot of meow was not on her back. She looked at Yang's sister and smiled happily.
”Sister, you hate it!”
She glared at meow, and Yang's sister turned to play pettish to Yang Zhenling.
”Well, in fact, I'm hungry. Brother, let's not go to the mountain. Take these turtledoves now!”
It seems that the Yang family's sister wants to eat them. The turtledoves that were still playing in the tree suddenly flew away. The direction is the hillside, where the cooking smoke rises.
Yang's younger sister wanted to cry without tears, but Yang Zhenling laughed: ”it seems that these turtledoves really don't want you to eat!”
Everyone laughed, and Yang's sister shouted at the foot of the mountain, ”Stinky turtledove, bad turtledove, wait for me, and I'll eat you today!”
”Well, stop it, little sister! The mountain is far away. We are mainly to accompany the ancient leader today. Whether we eat turtledoves or not depends on the ancient leader's meaning.” Yang Zhenling said.
”It's all right. Anyway, meow and I are not tired. It's rare that your sister is not afraid of hard work. Let's go there!” Gu Zheng said with a smile.
Action is action. Gu Zheng and others were at the top of the mountain and immediately began to go down the mountain from the other side.
Before long, Yang's sister regretted that the mountain road was difficult, and it was more difficult to go down the mountain than up the mountain. Yang Zhenling took her hand all the way.
”Sister Yang, why don't we go back?”
Meow walked at the front happily, turned around from time to time and talked and laughed with Yang's sister.
”No, I won't bow down to the mountain road. I must eat the turtledove made by the ancient leader at noon!” said the younger sister of the Yang family.
”Don't talk about my husband as a turtledove. We saw the turtledove fly over there, but it's not sure that the family didn't raise it. Besides, even if it was raised by others, they may not want us to eat!” meow said.
”They must be raised by that family! Otherwise, I will lose a lot. As for saying that others are reluctant to give up, sister, you can rest assured! As long as you say that they are distinguished guests of Tianxin sect, the islanders have nothing to give up!” affirmed sister Yang.
After walking forward for a while, a winding trail finally appeared on the originally pathless mountain.
”Great, there's a way!”
Yang's sister cheered and found that Lu was so cute for the first time.
Down the road, everyone's speed is much faster.
After a while, a man with a hoe on his back appeared on the road ahead, with a seven or eight year old child.
”Uncle, wait!” Yang Zhenling said.
The man with a bare upper body and a farmer's dress turned back and stopped to look at Yang Zhenling.
”Uncle, I want to ask you something. How many families live on this mountain?” Yang Zhenling said.
The farmer looked simple and honest, but he didn't immediately answer Yang Zhenling's question, but narrowed his eyes and looked at Yang Zhenling up and down.
”Who are you?”
The muddy child, hiding behind the farmer, asked timidly.
”I'm a disciple of Tianxin sect. This is a distinguished guest of Tianxin sect. We are thirsty and hungry all the way. We want to go to a place where people live for dinner!”
Yang Zhenling didn't mean to say that he wanted to eat turtledoves. He smiled at the mud child and took out a fog wind Apricot for him.
The mud child shook his head. Although he wanted to eat the fog wind apricot in Yang Zhenling's hand, he firmly grasped the farmer's clothes.
”You, you, you are Yang Zhenling?”
The farmer finally spoke, with a little excitement in his unbelievable voice.
”My name is Yang Zhenling. Uncle, do you recognize me?”
Yang Zhenling looked puzzled. Looking at the farmer's face, he first frowned, and then his eyes widened.
”You, are you uncle Cheng?” Yang Zhenling said excitedly.
”Do you remember?” the farmer laughed.
When Yang Zhenling was a child, uncle Cheng was his neighbor. Later, Yang Zhenling's parents died. Young Yang Zhenling and Yang's sister lived in Tianxin sect until they reached adulthood, and then moved back to their old house. However, uncle Cheng's family, who was originally their neighbor, has disappeared.
After many years, I met my old neighbor. Both Yang Zhenling and uncle Cheng looked very happy.
”Xiao Bao, go home first, tell your mother and ask her to prepare some dishes and entertain distinguished guests at noon!”
”Yes.”
The mud child answered and smiled at the people. He disappeared on the mountain road.
”Uncle Cheng, how many families are there near here?”
Yang's sister also opened her mouth, and her heart was still thinking of her turtledove.
”I'm the only one here! Don't go anywhere today. Just go to my house for a casual meal, and your guests will go home with us!”
Uncle Cheng looked at the crowd with a simple, honest and enthusiastic expression.
Yang Zhenling looks at Gu Zheng with inquiring eyes. Although he wants to talk about the past, today's task is to take Gu Zheng to play after all. Whether he can pass or not depends on Gu Zheng's decision.
”OK, let's go and be a guest!”
Gu Zheng doesn't really want to go. People who are too enthusiastic will make him feel uncomfortable, but since Yang Zhenling wants to go, there's nothing to go with.
Yang Zhen smiled excitedly at Gu Zheng: ”ancient Taoist friends, excuse me for a while.”
”It's all right, go!”
Gu Zheng smiled. Yang Zhenling immediately walked in front of Uncle Cheng and talked about the past while walking.
