Urban Witcher

"It's okay. What can I do? About an hour ago, Xiaocan came and said that he had something to look for you, but it was not urgent. He said that he would look for her at the bottom of the mountain after you were done. She was over there at the camp."

Ye Shaoyang flicked him on the head, "How many times have I said you, she is now a witch and believer, the leader of a faction, she doesn't want to lose face, what is she called Xiaocan!"

"Hey, isn't this in front of you?"

Guagua jumped on his shoulder, and the two went down the mountain together. Ye Shaoyang feels that this looks a bit like an old farmer returning home from work in the field after dark, or a hermit who hides from the world.

In the camp at the foot of the mountain, she met Tan Xiaohui. Some of her clan members were cooking by the fire. She was blowing a bamboo leaf beside her. It was so far away, a small bamboo leaf actually blew out a melodious singing sound in her hand.

"This 6 is indeed a grass eater!" Guagua admired, and got hit on the forehead again.

When Tan Xiaohui saw Ye Shaoyang, she immediately stopped bragging and smiled at him.

"Brother Shaoyang, let's eat first."

"It's over, I'm listening with enthusiasm."

Tan Xiaohui was a little embarrassed, and said with a smile: "If you like to hear, I will brag to you more in the future. Let's have dinner first, and I will tell you something."

Grandma Wu and several other elders also came to have dinner together. They all respected Ye Shaoyang very much. After all, more than ten years ago, if Ye Shaoyang hadn't intervened, the Dawuxian family might have disappeared. With a straight face, he was very affectionate in front of Ye Shaoyang, and he kept trying to find ways to eat for him. He brought a lot of wild game every day, and let him eat the best ones first, which made Ye Shaoyang very embarrassed.

Like today, after Ye Shaoyang sat down by the bonfire, a female wizard immediately lifted the lid of a pottery bowl on the ground, then held the bowl in both hands, and handed it to Ye Shaoyang respectfully.

"This is……"

Ye Shaoyang took it and saw that the bowl was full of black and green things, so he couldn't help asking.

"This is called the green pine worm in our local area. Eating it can pass the six meridians and prolong life. Now it is only found in the depths of the mountains." Wu Apo said very proudly, not noticing that Ye Shaoyang's face was turning green at all, worms! ! How to eat this!

"In the afternoon, I took a few girls to catch them for half an afternoon before I got them. I salted them. Master Ye teaches you to eat them quickly!"

Worms are still alive!

Ye Shaoyang stared at the bowl in his hand, and said with a chuckle, "How dare I eat such a precious thing by myself, heh heh, come together, one for each person."

Grandma Wu immediately said seriously: "How can this be? No matter how you say it, you are a guest, or the most honored guest. Naturally, the best things will be given to you. This is our custom!"

Qin Xiaohui covered her mouth and smiled. "Brother Shaoyang, this is the etiquette of our Miao Village. If you don't eat, it will be disrespectful. Only after you eat, can everyone have dinner. You can see that everyone is waiting for you."

Ye Shaoyang turned his head and looked, no, the elders and some disciples were holding bamboo tubes (there is no pot in the wild, the Miao people are used to cooking rice in bamboo tubes, that's how bamboo tube rice comes from), all of them with kind faces Smile and look at yourself.

Ye Shaoyang looked at the worms in the bowl again, they were all pinched in half, with viscera and sticky juice flowing... "Well, Xiaohui, this thing is similar to you, how can you eat it..."

Tan Xiaohui said: "It's different. On our side, we eat any animals and insects with a grateful heart. We thank them for giving their lives to feed us. This is also a kind of sacrifice... Besides, I don't eat them. this is for you."

Ye Shaoyang burst into tears, put down the bowl, wiped his tears, and said impassionedly: "Everyone, you are too kind to me, this small bowl of rice, no, a bowl of worms, but it condenses everyone's hard work and enthusiasm. I want to cry when I take up the bowl, how can you let me eat it... Besides, what you just said moved me so much, your attitude towards life made me feel ashamed, I feel that I have been educated, really, this thing It's so important to me!"

Everyone was stunned by what he said, and Grandma Wu was also very moved, and said: "Then eat quickly!"

"No! This matter means too much to me. If I eat it like this, I may forget it. I want to save them and take them out to look at them from time to time, reminding myself to be grateful for all life! Zhang Xianzhong said That’s great, all things are born to support people, and people have nothing to repay the sky! This is the testimony of my life-changing!"

"That's really good!" Guagua applauded.

Grandma Wu frowned and looked at the bowl in his hand, and said, "But this will stink tomorrow..."

"I have a way to make specimens of them, so that I can carry them with me." Seeing what Granny Wu wanted to say, Ye Shaoyang waved his hand quickly, and said righteously: "Don't any of you stop me, this is a historic moment in my life , You stop me, you stop me from progressing, from my pilgrimage!"

Quickly took out a packaging bag from the backpack, poured the worms in the bowl into it, tied the mouth and put it in the backpack, when I looked up and saw everyone staring at me dumbfounded, I quickly greeted them, "Okay, you're done, thank you all, Hurry up and eat!"

For dinner, Ye Shaoyang ate a piece of rice in a bamboo tube, and then he was pulled aside by Tan Xiaohui, saying that he was going to talk about something. After walking away, Tan Xiaohui said, "Take out that bowl of worms and throw it away."

"I……"

"Don't pretend, I know you won't be able to eat it. But what you said was really funny, I kept from laughing, haha!" Qin Xiaohui covered her mouth and laughed so that her flowers were trembling.

Ye Shaoyang scratched the back of his head, "I can't help it, but shouldn't you admire my quickness?"

"I admire it, but that's not what I admire." Tan Xiaohui put her hands behind her back, looking at him like a little girl. "What I admire the most is that you haven't changed all these years, and you are still so cute!"

"Um, should I change?"

"Seventeen years ago, you were number one in the world. You slashed countless demons and ghosts with your sword. Even peerless powerhouses like Xingyuenu and Houqing died in your hands. You even dragged the ghost king Wuji back to the past. With just one hand, The catastrophe has been delayed for seventeen years... Such an unrivaled hero must be unpredictable in people's imagination, but I am very lucky to still see your cutest side today."

Qin Xiaohui spoke very seriously, which made Ye Shaoyang feel very embarrassed. She deliberately pretended to be handsome and wanted to stroke her beard, but when she found that she didn't, she had to touch her chin instead, and said in a tone: "You say that, I still think I'm pretty good. Yes, I am so handsome."

Qin Xiaohui chuckled.
