I can bless thousands of magical powers

Bang! Bang!

"Brother Zhao, are you home?"

The knocking on the door from outside forced Zhang Yuan, who had just returned to the room, to go out and open the door.

There was a timid old man standing at the door.

As soon as the people from Zhenwu Sect left, this old man Kou hurried over.

When he saw Zhang Yuan, he immediately put on a smile and asked cautiously: "Brother Zhao, it's snowing heavily outside, can you let the old man go in and talk?"

The old man knew that Zhang Yuan didn't like him, so he spoke politely with humility.

In fact, Zhang Yuan's impression of him had improved a lot, and he also knew that the other party didn't come to the door for no reason.

So he nodded: "Yeah."

Old man Kou followed Zhang Yuan into the room and immediately showed a comfortable look.

He couldn't help but praise: "Brother Zhao, there is no more comfortable house than yours in the whole Xishanji!"

Zhang Yuan smiled.

Zhang Yuan's house is certainly comfortable to live in.

When he was building it, he asked the craftsmen he invited to make some arrangements according to his requirements.

Then he personally carried out some renovations and decorations.

For example, the fireplace on the wall, not to mention Xishanji, even Xiaxu can't find the same design.

This is Zhang Yuan's memory and experience in his previous life.

His fireplace is designed to be large, and enough firewood can be stuffed in at a time to warm the whole room.

It can also be used for barbecue and boiling water.

It can be said to be both convenient and practical.

Not only that, Zhang Yuan also covered the seats with hunted tiger skins and used bear skins as carpets in front of the stove.

The cat is comfortable all day.

He poured a cup of hot tea for Old Kou, and then asked: "Old Kou, is it about Zhenwu Sect?"

Old Kou glanced at the three sacks in the corner of the room, and quickly replied: "Yes, they have been to your house, right?"

Zhang Yuan did not deny: "Yes."

Old Kou showed a sullen look: "This group of people drove a cart here, most of the families have run past, I thought they must have come to your house, so I came to see."

Zhang Yuan's heart moved, showing a half-smile: "Didn't they send you anything?"

Old Kou smiled bitterly: "The old man is useless, no one can look up to him!"

Zhenwu Sect is undoubtedly also looking at people to serve dishes.

An old guy in his twilight years has no value to them.

Naturally, they are too lazy to do superficial work.

But from another perspective, Zhenwu Sect obviously knows Xishanji quite well, otherwise it would not be possible to target it.

And this also shows that some people here have already defected to Zhenwu Sect!

Zhang Yuan shook his head, then pointed to the three sacks in the corner and said, "I don't like their stuff, I'll give it to you."

"Ah?"

Old Kou was shocked and couldn't believe his ears.

Zhang Yuan smiled and said, "I'm not kidding, I really don't want it, take it back when you leave."

How could he lack such a small amount of stuff!

And to be honest, although the possibility of problems with the mutton, rice, oil and salt sent by Zhenwumen is very small.

But it's not worth Zhang Yuan to take any risks.

Just give it away.

You know, in order to survive the winter, Zhang Yuan specially dug a new cellar to store the supplies purchased from Xucheng.

It can't be used up in one winter!

Knowing that Zhang Yuan was serious, Old Kou couldn't help but burst into tears of gratitude: "Thank you, Brother Zhao, thank you!"

This old man who had experienced many vicissitudes and was struggling to survive had a touch of emotion in his eyes.

He hurriedly lowered his head and secretly wiped away the wet marks from the corners of his eyes.

In fact, Old Man Kou is not a sentimental person. He is used to the treacherous and unpredictable people in the world. He has become slippery in order to survive, so he is not a real good person.

It's just that at his age, he is used to the cold eyes and bullying of others, and he barely lives day by day.

Suddenly, he felt the kindness from Zhang Yuan, and he couldn't help but feel touched.

Taking the teacup and drinking a sip of hot tea, Old Man Kou calmed down and asked, "Brother Zhao, what are your plans?"

Zhang Yuan answered without hesitation, "Let's take it one step at a time. Anyway, I won't be a dog of Zhenwumen."

He has been sold once by the Whale Gang, so how could he join a new gang again?

It's impossible in this life!

It is foreseeable that when Zhenwumen comes to set up a name in the spring, it will inevitably unify the entire Xishan Group.

Play the trick of "those who obey me will prosper and those who disobey me will perish".

Once you join, you can't help yourself, and nine out of ten will act as cannon fodder in fighting with other gangs!

Zhang Yuan was not afraid of fighting, he just felt bored.

Old Kou asked again: "Where do you plan to go?"

That's a question!

Zhang Yuan thought about it and replied: "The Taoist Xuancheng of the Heavenly King Palace once asked me to be the external protector."

"What?"

Old Kou's two eyeballs almost popped out of his eye sockets, and he trembled and said: "Why didn't you go?"

The old guy's eyes turned green.

Zhang Yuan squinted at him and said lightly: "I don't like being bound by others."

"That's the Heavenly King Palace!"

Old Kou almost beat his chest and stamped his feet: "How many people want to go in but can't, it depends on chance, you..."

He wanted to scold Zhang Yuan for squandering the opportunities he had obtained and pushing away all the opportunities he had obtained.

Fortunately, there was still reason in his head.

Zhang Yuan was a little surprised.

Zhang Yuan didn't expect Old Kou's reaction to be so intense, and immediately realized that the Heavenly King Palace in Xiaxu was not as simple as he imagined.

But he really didn't care.

Old Kou sighed, "If you were the outer guardian of the Heavenly King Palace, then the Zhenwu Sect would never dare to provoke you."

Zhang Yuan waved his hand, "Let's talk about it later."

Unless he was desperate, he would not consider going to Taoist Xuancheng.

Old Kou hesitated for a moment, then took out a piece of paper from his arms and handed it to Zhang Yuan: "Brother Zhao, this is a map to Damengze. If there is really no other way, you can go there to hide."

"Zhenwu Sect will not stay in Xishanji for too long."

Damengze?

Zhang Yuan took the map curiously: "Can people live there?"

Damengze is located in the lower reaches of Changtian River. It is said to be vast and boundless, and it is a more remote place than Xiaxu.

"Yes!"

Old Kou answered decisively: "Many people live in Damengze!"

"Thank you."

Zhang Yuan put the map away.

He didn't think that Old Kou was fooling him, but he didn't think of going to Damengze.

He is not Zhang Paopao.

Running around is annoying!

If it really doesn't work, Zhang Yuan will buy a house in the city.

Although it's not as convenient as it is now, it's not a problem to settle down again.

At worst, he can go back to Xishanji later.

Old Kou felt relieved, as if he had fulfilled his last wish. He stood up and said, "Then I'm leaving. Take care."

Zhang Yuan sent Old Kou out and put three sacks on the car so that he could pull it back.

The car was the frame of an oxcart.

The ox had eaten it, but the car was still there.

It just came in handy.

After Old Kou left, Zhang Yuan closed the door.

He also shut out the snow and wind.

At this moment, he had made up his mind.

Break through the fourth level before the spring!
