Chapter 290 The poisonous pony
Yan Qing was also a little surprised when he saw Ma Bingliang. He did not expect that this senior brother would come back at this time.
He has lived in the Taoist temple since he was a child and has met this legendary senior brother several times.
Xuan Yue smiled and waved to Yan Qing, "Yan Qing is back, just in time, your senior brother is back too."
Yan Qing first saluted Xuan Yue and said hello, then turned to Xuan Qing The white-haired old man beside the moon clasped his fists and saluted, "Hello, Senior Brother."
His eyes stayed for a moment on the white-haired old man and the little girl standing behind him.
The white-haired old man is thin and thin, with a straight back, a weather-beaten face full of wrinkles, and a pair of sharp eyes.
Ma Bingliang chuckled, his eyes narrowed to cover up the glare in his eyes, and he looked at Yan Qing up and down, "Yan Qing has grown so big, time flies so fast. "
"It's not fast, this child is already in his twenties, and more than twenty years have passed in a flash," Xuan Yue said.
Xuan Yue then introduced the little girl to Yan Qing, "Yan Qing, that is your senior brother's apprentice, named Xiao Xiao."
The little girl looked about ten years old. She was thin and wearing an ill-fitting robe. Her face was as round as a bean sprout.
From her tense face and her hands tightly holding the hem of her clothes, it was obvious that she was nervous.
The moment Yan Qing's eyes fell on her, she became even more nervous, her face turned red, and she stuttered, "Hello, Uncle Master!"
Yan Qing smiled slightly Nod.
Xuan Yue seemed to be endeared by her reaction and chuckled, "Xiao Ma, where did you find such a cute little apprentice."
When he heard what he said, Ma Bingliang's body tensed up for a moment, he turned his body slightly to block Xuan Yue's view of Xiao Xiao, and said vaguely, "I happened to meet him, and I thought this child had good character, so I accepted him. ”
He specifically emphasized the word character, as if it contained something.
Xuan Yue seemed not to understand what he meant, and said with a smile, "This kid is really good."
Xuan Yue's eyes turned and fell on the bag in Yan Qing's hand, her eyes It suddenly lit up, and he couldn't wait to say, "Yanqing, quickly bring the fruit you brought back and let me have a taste."
This child eats and drinks there every day, and he doesn't know that he often comes back to the master Every time he wanted to send some fruit, he would have someone send it by courier, and he would have to go down the mountain to get it.
Yan Qing hummed, took the black bag, and opened it directly on the table in front of Xuan Yue.
Seeing him placing the fruits on top like this, Ma Bingliang laughed inexplicably and asked the girl behind him to wash the fruits, "Xiao Xiao, go help your master wash the fruits. How can you eat fruits without washing them?" . ”
“Young master, you still can’t change this problem after all these years.”
Hearing this, Xiao Xiaotong stepped forward, but was rejected by Xuan Yue.
“No, you can’t wash this fruit. If you wash it, it will lose some flavor.”
Ma Bingliang said venomously, "Is there any pesticide residue smell missing?" My uncle said that as you get older, you should wear glasses, don’t save money.”
Are you going to be a philistine like you, Ma Binliang? Before he could say the words he wanted to complain about, his eyes were attracted to the fruit, and his pupils widened slightly.
Xiao Xiao saw the subtle aura lingering around the fruit and let out an amazement. , "Master, this fruit has spiritual energy."
He could see it, Ma Bingliang's eyes widened again, and his pupils were full of shock.
It turned out to be a spiritual fruit!
“Yanqing, where did you find this fruit?”
Ma Bingliang has been practicing Taoism for so many years, but he has never seen the existence of spiritual fruit.
Xuan Yue took a pear and threw it to Ma Bingliang, "Hey Xiaoma, where have you been in recent years? Haven't you ever gone online? Shangyuan Village is very famous for its fruits now."
Ma Bingliang took the pear in a panic and held it in both hands. The moment he took it, he felt the abundant spiritual energy on the fruit.
It’s really a spiritual fruit!
Xuan Yue picked up a bunch of grapes and ate several of them in one bite. She swallowed them without spitting out the skin.
"Xiao Xiao come here to get some fruit to eat. This fruit is so sweet." He also didn't forget to invite the children to come over and eat.
Xiao Xiao smelled the fruity aroma in the air, and looked at Xuan Yue eating so deliciously, and subconsciously swallowed her saliva.
She wanted to eat, but she didn't dare to eat until the master said nothing.
Xiao Xiao looked at Ma Binliang and asked, Master, can I eat it?
Ma Bingliang threw the pear directly to Xiao Xiao, and then he ordered Yan Qing to get him the fruit.
Yan Qing said nothing and handed him pears and two bunches of grapes in a good-tempered manner.
Ma Bingliang handed one of the bunches of grapes to Xiao Xiao.
Xiao Xiao thanked me obediently, "Thank you, master, thank you, master, thank you, uncle."
Listening to the little girl's soft and cute voice, Xuan Yue's eyes were dazed for a moment, and her eating of grapes also slowed down.
The past clearly appeared in front of his eyes. The skinny little girl seemed to be standing in that position, softly calling Master, Senior Brother...
Xuan Yue slowly put her hand in her hand Putao put down, lowered his eyes, covering up the turbulent emotions in his eyes, and changed the topic, "Xiao Ma, you are back just in time. You can also take Xiao Xiao to experience on the Ghost Festival."
Suddenly cueed Upon arrival, Xiao Xiao immediately put down the pear and looked at Xuan Yue nervously, not daring to eat the fruit.
"That's what I planned when I came back," Ma Bingliang's eyes suddenly moved to Yan Qing, "However, I want Junior Brother Yan Qing to help take Xiao Xiao."
Xuan Yue: "Okay, let Yan Qing Qing took the children to exercise."
Yan Qing: "Tang Yuanyuan and I have other arrangements for the Ghost Festival."
The master and apprentice's voices sounded at the same time, and Yan Qing was stunned for a moment. , turned to look at Xuan Yue, with a bit of confusion in his eyes.
Xuan Yue had a faint expression on her face, "The underworld has not been peaceful recently. You, Xiao Tang, the others, and Xiao Xiao must keep the city safe."
Didn't he tell him before he came back that he would leave Shangyuan Village to guard the ghost gate during the Ghost Festival? Why was he suddenly asked to go to the city?
Yan Qing: "But Grandmaster's side..."
"Grandmaster's side can do it without you," Xuan Yue said bluntly, "You might still be holding back there. "
Yan Qing: ...
Thank you, although it is the truth, he was hurt.
Yan Qing thought for a while and said, "Then I have to talk to the ancestor first. If she doesn't agree, I will ask her to come to you."
Both of them are elders, and he must be obedient. If the opinions cannot be unified, let them communicate among themselves.
Xuan Yue: "...???"
The corner of Xuan Yue's mouth twitched, staring straight at Yan Qing's beautiful face, trying to see from his face A hint of joking.
Why did this child become so bad after staying there for such a short time?
Yan Qing looked directly into his eyes without any guilt, "Maybe you can talk to the Patriarch about this directly."
"What Patriarch are you talking about?" Ma Bingliang looked at them with confusion. Master and apprentice.
Xuan Yue let out a long sigh and said venomously, "So I said, Xiaoma, you still like to go into the mountains when you are old. You are not keeping up with the times at all. Go online more often when you have time."
Ma Bingliang:? ? ?
May I ask? You were so angry with your apprentice that you couldn’t bear to talk about your apprentice, so you took your anger out on me?
Xiao Xiao, the youngest in the family, worked hard to reduce his presence.
