43 Welcoming Party 3 (1/2)
The three chattered excitedly, talking about what kind of beasts they would encounter or the strange place they would visit. In the middle of their talk, they saw Xiao Musheng walking toward the village gate with Chen Hanchen and Liu Feng following him. The villagers saw them and began walking toward the village gate. Yan Xiu was confused. Xin Guodan became even more excited and dragged Yan Xiu along with him to the village gate, Shuang Jingu and Bai Yuan chased them.
”Guodan, what is going on?” (YX)
”The team is back!” (XG)
Yan Xiu finally realized what was going on, everyone moved to welcome the team. The village gate was crowded, Xin Guodan and Shuang Jingu stood on tiptoe and craned their necks to see the village gate better. Yan Xiu didn't need to do such a thing, Bai Yuan was taller than everyone here, Yan Xiu climbed on his shoulder and he got a clear view of the village gate.
In the dark night, everything was still. Waiting for a dozen minutes, Yan Xiu heard the faint sound of a group running while Bai Yuan already heard it earlier than Yan Xiu. A group of people entered the village from the gate and stopped before Xiao Musheng. There were fourteen people carrying different weapons, in the lead was a young man with a spear on his back. His features were sharp and handsome like a dashing hero. When Yan Xiu looked closely, the young man closely resembled Xiao Musheng.
Yan Xiu knew the young man but only his identity and name, the son of the head hunter, Xiao Long. Xiao Musheng looked at the team, despite the rough state of their clothes and weapons, they were smiling with satisfaction.
”Looks like you had a good hunt, good.” (XM)
The team let out a laugh. Xiao Musheng smiled.
”The village has prepared a feast for all of you. Eat and drink to your heart's content.” (XM)
Said Xiao Musheng as he opened his arm.
”Welcome back.” (XM)
The team saluted Xiao Musheng.
”We're back!”
The village erupted with cheers. The team dispersed to hug their family and their family welcomed them back. The Xiao pair of father and son looked at each other with smiles, Xiao Long came forward to his father's open arm for a hug. Looking at the touching reunion in front of him, Yan Xiu felt his sour. He imagined such a scene every day even in his dream, where his parents came back and he could hug them and be with them again.
Beads of tears pooled in his eyes, he quickly hid his face and wiped the tears off. This was a happy moment, he couldn't be sad. Bai Yuan felt Yan Xiu fluctuate emotion and called worriedly at him.
”Uhouho? (Master, are you okay?)” (BY)
Yan Xiu smiled at Bai Yuan and patted his head. There were still some tears in the corner of his eyes.
