C4337 A Fat Sheep
After they left, the middle-aged muscular man smiled at Ning Qi and said, "These people from the Six Fans God Constabulary are always behind us. A while ago, the grandson of a famous senior in Sishui County was killed by the little witch. If the Six Fans God's Sect wanted to, they should have caught the little witch long ago. We'll only act after she's dead. "
As he spoke, the middle-aged man shook his head. There was a hint of disdain in his eyes.
"Uncle Hu, who's the senior you're talking about?"
Ning Qi said with a smile.
"Hey, don't you know about this? Ning Qi, you are not from another county, are you?"
Hu Yuan was a little surprised.
"Yes, I came from Changshan County."
Ning Qi smiled and nodded.
"I see."
Hu Yuan came to a realization, then smiled and shook his head. "You're so young, yet you came all the way here from such a far place. Could it be that you didn't encounter any Demonic Beast or bandits along the way?"
"I was lucky and didn't encounter any. Otherwise, I would really like to see what the Demonic Beast looks like."
Ning Qi was slightly disappointed.
When Hu Yuan heard this, the smile on his face became even wider. "If you really encounter the Demonic Beast, you'll have to cry. However, your luck is extremely good. You haven't encountered these things on such a long journey."
He paused for a moment, then continued, "The senior I was talking about just now is the master of Ancient Lake Manor, the number one expert of Sishui County, the 'Great Yin Hand' Gu Tianya.
Senior Gu is already over 80 years old this year, but he is still as strong as ever. With the Great Yin Hand, he once fought three people of the same level without losing. He was regarded as the number one person in Sishui County, the existence closest to the Foundation Building Stage.
Unfortunately, two months ago, Senior Gu's most beloved grandson went out to travel, but he met the little demoness. Along with his guards, all thirty-eight of them were killed by the little demoness. Not a single one of them was left alive."
Ancient Lake Manor.
Ning Qi remembered this name.
Several hours later, the sun had almost set in the west. The sky had darkened slightly. Ning Qi and Hu Yuan finally arrived at a town before the sky turned dark.
The scale of this town was similar to Black Ox Town, and it was even much more prosperous than Black Ox Town.
"We're finally home."
Hu Yuan let out a sigh.
"Uncle's home is here?"
Ning Qi said with a smile.
"That's right. Tongtai Town is the ancestral land of our Hu Prefecture. Our Hu Prefecture has been living here for generations and has some reputation. It's getting late. Ning Qi, why don't you come back with me and stay for the night? How about we continue our journey the next day?"
Hu Yuan invited him.
Ning Qi smiled and nodded. "Then I will disturb Uncle Hu."
"No worries. I saw that you had the courage to go out and adventure at such a young age. Your temper is very suitable for me. I have many rooms in my residence. Let's go."
Hu Yuan laughed lightly.
Not long after, Ning Qi followed Hu Yuan to a residence. The door of the house was vermillion in color, and there were eight golden rivets nailed on both sides of the door. There were also stone lions that were as tall as humans on both sides of the door, and they looked very imposing. Hu Yuan said that his family had been operating in Tongtai Town for generations, and as expected, he did not lie.
Creak.
The door slowly opened, and an old man with white hair walked out. When he saw Hu Yuan, he immediately bowed and said, "Master, you're back."
"Yes, I brought a little brother with me. You can arrange a meal later. You can't neglect the guests."
Hu Yuan smiled and said.
"Yes, Master."
The white-haired old man looked at Ning Qi and revealed a kind smile as he nodded slightly.
Ning Qi also nodded his head when he saw this.
After entering the Hu Prefecture, maidservant immediately came to arrange for Ning Qi to change his clothes and bathe. After he finished bathing and putting on his clothes, maidservant brought him to the main hall of the Hu Prefecture.
Along the way, maidservant, who was leading the way, would secretly glance at Ning Qi from time to time, her eyes filled with curiosity.
"Miss, is there something dirty on my face?"
Ning Qi smiled.
Maidservant was like a frightened kitten as her face turned red, "Young Master, this servant knows her mistake."
"What mistake did you make? It is just that you have been secretly looking at me and I thought that there was something dirty on my face."
Ning Qi said with a smile.
"It's just that the old master has never invited a young guest like young master, so this servant is somewhat curious. I hope that young master does not tell the old master about this matter. Otherwise, I will definitely be locked up in the cellar."
Maidservant said with some fear.
Ning Qi discovered that when she said the word cellar, her mood fluctuated the most.
Not long after, Ning Qi came to the hall. Hu Yuan was already sitting at the main seat of the dining table. When he saw Ning Qi, his face immediately brimmed with a smile. "Ning Qi, come, come. Let's see if these dishes are suitable for our appetite. If they are not suitable for our appetite, I will let Chef make them again. "
"Uncle Hu is too polite. When we're outside, there's no need to be so particular."
Ning Qi smiled and sat opposite Hu Yuan.
At this time, a beautiful middle-aged woman walked into the hall with a girl about fourteen or fifteen years old. When Hu Yuan saw this, he introduced her to Ning Qi, "Ning Qi, this is my wife and this is my daughter. You two should get to know each other."
The beautiful middle-aged woman and young lady looked at Ning Qi at the same time and sized him up. Immediately after, the little girl revealed a shy smile and unconsciously nodded at Hu Yuan. The beautiful middle-aged woman laughed and said, "Ning Qi is fair and clean. He is really pretty."
Ning Qi smiled and did not say anything.
"All of you can eat slowly."
The beautiful middle-aged woman smiled and left with the little girl.
"Come, Ning Qi. Eat the food. Think of this place as your home. Don't be polite with uncle."
Hu Yuan said warmly.
Ning Qi looked at the dishes on the table. They were indeed full of color and fragrance, causing one's appetite to soar. However, Ning Qi only poured a cup of wine. After drinking a cup with Hu Yuan, he quietly changed the topic and started to talk about other things.
Hu Yuan smacked his lips, as if he was reminiscing the fragrance of the wine just now. Then, he ate the dishes on the table with a smile and told Ning Qi some stories and deeds of Tong Tai Town.
This meal lasted for almost an hour. Ning Qi's eyes became more and more dull. In the end, Hu Yuan laughed loudly.
"Ning Qi, what a good name. It's a pity that you have traveled the martial world alone at such a young age. You are not even a martial artist. Isn't this a big fat sheep?"
"Master, recently that witch from the Heavenly Music Sect has been wandering around this place. Her goal is probably to find the few disciples of the Heavenly Music Sect that you put in the cellar a while ago. This fellow has an extraordinary appearance and is not an ordinary disciple. This old servant feels that during this period of time... It's best not to complicate things. "
The butler walked to Hu Yuan's side and bowed as he suggested.
"Hmph, what does the little witch of the Heavenly Music Sect count for? Even though her talent is impressive, now that she has killed Gu Tianya's most beloved grandson, she has long been unable to protect herself even after crossing the river. I, Hu Yuan, have already reached the eighth level of Qi Refining, even if she comes. I'm not afraid. Go and search. See if there's anything good on this kid. "
Hu Yuan laughed domineeringly. His words did not contain the slightest bit of fear towards the Little Demoness. The fear that he had displayed earlier was clearly misleading others.
