Afterwards, just as Wu Qing said, after he chatted with the villagers in an unintelligible dialect, the villagers who had been wary of Ji Xueting and others immediately changed their faces and knelt down to Ji Xueting and others again. Thanks again, warm hospitality.

And when Wu Qing's grandma arrived and heard that Ji Xueting had rescued him from the mouth of Thousand Corpse Flies, the enthusiasm from the mountain people was particularly hard to resist.

"Meet the immortal, thank the immortal! Ah Qing is the only seedling in my family. His parents entrusted him to me when they went out to sell medicine. If something happens to him, I don't know how to live. Immortal, In order to thank you for saving your life, you must definitely stay, and let me repay your deep kindness with a meager drink!"

A while later, Ji Xueting, Tianqu and Lu Ren were sitting in the high stilted building, staring at the luxurious seats in front of them by the firepit, and were dumbfounded.

It was meat, a lot of meat, blackened pork skin, with bloodshot lean meat attached to it; a whole chicken scalded in water, served pale, with a layer of pale pink under the plate juice.Of course, there is also cooked and rotten meat, big chunks of stick bones and meat skin burned in soy sauce, piled high in the basin, dripping with sticky juice; there is also fried meat, sizzling, Yellow oil dripped around the edge of the plate, congealing into little semi-solid dots.

"Please eat more, this is all our heart."

The Wu family's grandma is a woman with a black complexion and a strong body. She is extremely attentive and eager to Ji Xueting and others.Big pots of recognizable but unrecognizable meat pieces quickly piled up on the short table to form a mountain.Grandma Wu said hello, and at the same time neatly held the silver knife, Ti Ji Xueting cut the pieces of meat bigger than fists in two.The white fat was exposed from the piece of meat, and the dark red shredded meat was inside. Some mucous membranes hung on the edge of the silver knife, and Grandma Wu cut it several times before cutting it open.

Ji Xueting couldn't help looking at the piece of meat twice, but for a while he couldn't fully recognize what kind of animal or monster it was.

As if aware of Ji Xueting's gaze, the grandma, who was leaning over the table passionately, suddenly raised her head, and grinned at Ji Xueting:

"Please don't mind, my benefactor. These are all raised in our own family, and the meat from the mountains is rough, but they are all good things, delicious to eat!"

The high-pitched voice due to enthusiasm is mixed with the toast songs of fellow villagers. Between the laughter and laughter, the greasy and fishy smell of the meat is mixed with the incense from the stilted building that is said to be used to repel insects and miasma. Even the air seems to have become slightly twisted and sticky.

"Eat, you're welcome, benefactor, eat quickly!"

With a "bang", a large piece of meat was thrown onto the plate in front of Ji Xueting.

The original pieces of meat in the pot fell down, and in the gap between the meat and the meat, a piece of finger that had been cooked and discolored rolled and fell out of the pot.

The fingers have been boiled in the seasoning, and the cross-section reveals the white joints, but there is still a piece of nails that are not falling off on the fingertips.

"what is that?"

With a calm expression, Ji Xueting pointed to that finger and asked.

"what?"

Grandma Wu was taken aback for a moment, and then followed Ji Xueting's direction to the basin after a pause.

"Oh, benefactor should be a rich man, don't you recognize this? This is a good thing, it's chicken feet."

Grandma Wu said with a smile, picked up the piece of meat and put it in her mouth, crunching and eating.At this time, Ji Xueting looked again, and sure enough, the fingers were bent, the skin surface was covered with fine warts, and the nails also looked like pointed hooks.

It really looks like chicken feet.

"Oh I got it."

Ji Xueting responded as if suddenly realizing.

"Haha, although there is miasma in Youling, the worms are full, and the chickens raised here are very fat, and they are very delicious... Gong Gong, can you eat more?!"

Grandma Wu still smiled and kept calling Ji Xueting.

"Thank you."

Ji Xueting nodded and smiled, and glanced at the other two people beside him from the corner of his eye: Tianqu is fine, probably because the aura of this white-haired fairy is really cold and terrifying, his gestures are extremely dark, as if he could violently kill people at any time, but no one dares Go up and harass him.In contrast, Lu Ren was in a state of embarrassment at this time, and now he was surrounded by many girls wearing mountain folk costumes with their waists and arms bare.The girls were holding cups or holding meat in their hands, and they were beckoning Lu Ren to eat the food and wine with smiles.

At this moment, Ji Xueting suddenly felt a strong gaze. He turned his head and met Tianqu's silver eyes.

These mortals may not have noticed it, but Ji Xueting could see it clearly. Tianqu Xianjun had already become extremely impatient at this time, and the shadows of the furniture in the stilted building were already crowded with black snake shadows wriggling.

Only when facing Ji Xueting, did the white-haired fairy look a little softer.

【"Hush—"】

Ji Xueting shook his head slightly at Tianqu, signaling him to be safe and stay still.

Immortal Tianqu relaxed his shoulders instantly, and the snake shadow receded again... and everyone in the room remained ignorant.

"Benefactor, but these meals are not very satisfactory, I don't think you seem to move your chopsticks much?"

Granny Wu suddenly asked from the side.

Ji Xueting had no choice but to look back at the woman in front of him.

As the four eyes met, the woman smiled kindly, and her eyes were full of concern.She rubbed her palms vigorously, as if she was embarrassed: "We have never been a distinguished guest like you in our village before, and I don't know if you are used to eating or not..."

Ji Xueting blinked his eyes, and suddenly said: "You guys have prepared this meal to be very interesting in the mountains and wild, with a special flavor. I should have a good meal and enjoy it, but now I really don't have the heart to eat here drink, alas..."

Ji Xueting sighed very sadly.

"Benefactor, what is your problem? As long as we can help, please feel free to mention it!"

Sure enough, as soon as he said these words, Wu Qing couldn't hold back immediately, and hurriedly interjected.

Ji Xueting glanced at him softly, the distress in his eyes became more and more obvious.

"To be honest, I actually wanted to find out if there is... a Niangniang Temple near here? I have to go to worship anyway, so that I can settle my worries."

Hearing the word "Niangniang Temple", there was a sudden silence in the room.

Grandma Wu raised her eyebrows and looked at Ji Xueting, and after looking at Ji Xueting for a while, she replied, "There is indeed a Empress Temple near us, but it's just that the Empress Temple is usually for begging children, the nobleman is so young and handsome, There are many beautiful wives and concubines at home, why would you want to worship a ruined temple?"

"This matter, um, it's a long story," Ji Xueting observed the grandma calmly, and the nonsense in his mouth was not drafted at all, "... There is only one wife in my family, and I met her when we were young. My childhood sweetheart grew up. After getting married, the husband and wife are deeply affectionate and very loving. I thought that having a wife like this would have no regrets in this life, but my wife has never conceived for so many years... Alas, we have all tried methods I tried it, but nothing worked. As time went by, my wife was exhausted because of this matter, and became sick with anxiety. Then, with the grace of God, when we were helpless, we were suddenly able to give advice to the nobleman, telling us that we should come In the secluded mountains of Yongzhou, I was looking for a temple of the empress. It is said that this temple of the empress will respond to every request. Even if the husband is dead, it can bring life and death together, and have a child to preserve the incense. No, I will take my two Best friends came here to look for the Niangniang Temple, but they didn’t want to find the Niangniang Temple where there are only countless barren mountains and mountains.”

Hearing his answer like this, the smile on Grandma Wu's face piled up again.

"So that's the case, oops, what did I say..."

Seeing that her expression had loosened, but the next moment, she looked at Tianqu Xianjun who had been exceptionally silent from the beginning to the end, and then suddenly lowered her voice to Ji Xueting's ear and whispered: "You young man can tell that you are a man with a heart at a glance." Sentimental, but not like your brother, that... a person who seems to be doing great things at first glance, with such a cold-faced and indifferent temperament, he is willing to trek across mountains and rivers to come to this secluded mountain. Why, you The wife and family of a friend also..."

Obviously, Ji Xueting's rhetoric was impeccable, but when it fell on Tianqu and Lu Ren, it was a bit unreliable.

Ji Xueting was stunned, and in the next moment, Grandma Wu smiled wryly and said: "Actually, it's nothing else, it's because the Empress Temple is not popular in Yongzhou. We can't afford any mistakes. Benefactors don't think Grandma is nagging, I just want to ask, after all, this Empress Temple is suitable for some people, but not suitable for others."

"Oh? Is that so? Then please ask Grandma to explain for me, who is suitable and who is not suitable?"

Ji Xueting asked.

"People who have love in their hearts, people who can't ask for it, people who have lost their love...Naturally, the Niangniang Temple can help them find consummation." The Wu Granny's tone was solemn. She was just a kind and earnest woman in the mountains, but now she looks like , there was an unfathomable strangeness in his expression, "Of course, the most important thing is that you must have affection in your heart. The deeper the affection, the more sincere your heart will be. And Empress Luyun's favorite is A man of sincerity."

At this moment, Tianqu suddenly spoke coldly on the other side of the table, just in time to catch up with Grandma Wu's words: "So, I really should go to the Empress Temple to worship. After all, I have Come here to pray for my wife."

He stared straight at Granny Wu, his expression still so indifferent.

However, when talking about the unnecessary "in-law", even people like Ji Xueting who knew the truth were a little dazed, because the eyes of Immortal Tianqu were too gentle.

"I am not a person who does great things, but an extremely stupid and ignorant person. I did many wrong things in the early years, and I was really bad to my wife. It made him very sad, and even my body became unhealthy. Great."

Tianqu said softly, his cold and clumsy appearance made what he said sound much more sincere than Ji Xueting's skilled nonsense before.

Even Grandma Wu was touched by that affection, and at this moment she couldn't help asking:

"Oh... I understand, so it hurts the body, so you can't give birth, right?"

"No, this has nothing to do with the child. I don't need any etiquette or heir link between me and him. If the empress temple really responds to requests, I only want to ask the god in the temple one thing-I only hope that he will have nothing to do in this life. No worries, no disasters, peace and joy.”

Tianqu solemnly said every word.

The author has something to say: Grandma Wu: Who is Brother Lu?

Ji Xueting: Oh, he... mainly because he didn't lift.

Lu Ren:? ? ? ? ? ?
