Chapter 870 Rejuvenation?
A moment later, Huangfu's living room.
The Huangfu family is indeed a big family in the Tianzhou martial arts domain. The reception hall is quite spacious, with a main seat in the center and more than ten seats on the left and right sides. Each seat is crafted from fine yew wood.
Next to it, there is a small wooden table with red chairs, serving many precious and long-lasting famous teas, and they are served with fine blue and white porcelain. Every arrangement is very grand and high-end.
Fortunately, Chu Xiao and Xia Houyue were not frogs in the well who had never seen the world, so they did not look surprised because of this.
"By the way, Xiaoyue."
Huangfu Yi, who was sitting on the master's seat, sipped the tea in his hand and said with a hint of joy, "How come you didn't arrive until today? Your father's letter arrived a long time ago..."
"Sorry, Uncle Yi."
Xia Houyue said, "There are some things that are difficult to talk about..."
"Um……"
Huangfu Yi heard the sound, turned his eyes to Chu Xiao, nodded meaningfully, and said with a half-smile, "Okay, Uncle Yi won't talk about this anymore, let's talk about your father."
Speaking of this, Huangfu Yi waved his hand and suddenly said fiercely, "Your father is really nothing. He said you would arrive yesterday, but as a result, I hurried back and waited for another whole day!"
"Come back?"
Xia Houyue paused, then reasoned clearly, "Uncle Yi went to find my father?"
"Naturally, you are a single woman, how dare he let you go on the road so casually, what a nonsense! If I can't wait until Ziran goes to ask for someone else, what will happen if my Xiaoyue is abducted?"
Huangfu Yi said with a smile.
The speaker was unintentional, but the listener was intentional. Chu Xiao suddenly thought about it, had they actually traveled a whole day before? At that time, the surroundings were dim and difficult to distinguish, but I didn’t pay attention...
Xia Houyue, on the other hand, thought of another daughter's thoughts.
"Uncle Yi, don't say such things."
She didn't know why, but there was a surge of emotion in her heart, as if she was shy and didn't want Huangfu Yi to continue talking.
Huangfu Yi was stunned for a moment when he saw this, and then "misunderstood" it.
In his opinion, although his words meant he loved the younger generation, it would be fine if he still looked like a middle-aged man who had been killed with a pig's knife. But now, for some unknown reason, he had transformed back into a child like a child again. With his young and handsome appearance, such a handsome boy said the following words...
The meaning of this is naturally very different!
Although Huangfu Yi was sure that Xia Houyue would not lose his composure because of this, he also knew that he was too handsome and unrestrained at this time...
This is not because he is narcissistic, but when he was young, he was indeed a gentleman, with a reputation for being chic and unrestrained. For those who came to Huangfu's house to ask for marriage, saying that they had crossed the threshold was not enough to describe it. I remember the battle on the year of his coming-of-age ceremony. , good guy, I’m going to tear Huangfu’s family apart!
Although the living room is large, almost everyone rubs shoulders with each other, but even so, the whole family cannot be said to be together.
It is said that Huangfu Yi had already found someone he liked when he was young. He was a lonely and frail woman, but her name has not been spread. Later, it was said that during the battle against the Demon Cult, the orphan girl sacrificed her body to the sword to become a family heirloom for the Huangfu family. The sword strikes!
And this sword also greatly improved Huangfu Yi's combat power in the battle between the Huangfu family and the Demon Sect. It can even be said that without the orphan girl and the sword, it is entirely possible for the current Huangfu family to It's another completely opposite situation.
After the death of the orphan girl, Huangfu Yi publicly announced that he would never marry.
Even so, with his young and handsome appearance, he was like a girl killer. In his opinion, it was no wonder that Xia Houyue felt a little uncomfortable.
Of course, if you look back at his appearance before today, you can't help but sigh secretly from the bottom of your heart.
Time is like a butcher's knife...
"Ah."
At that moment, thinking that he was aware of Xia Houyue's predicament, Huangfu Yi smiled slightly and then said, "Xiaoyue, are you fascinated by Uncle Yi's appearance at this time? Sorry, please continue talking?"
Such joking words are said by close relatives, otherwise it would really be suspected of wanting an old cow to eat young grass.
Hearing this, Xia Houyue raised her eyebrows slightly, then shook her head and said, "Uncle Yi, Xiaoyue..."
But before she finished speaking, Huangfu Yi waved his hand and interrupted: "Xiaoyue, you are in love now. You will do this when you meet a handsome young man. This is normal, don't worry about it."
Chu Xiao heard the sound and glanced at Xia Houyue, thinking that this couldn't be true. Xia Houyue looked back with a complicated expression, as if she was eager to explain, but she didn't understand why she was so eager... In short, everything The tenderness of my daughter appears faintly!
After thinking about it, she couldn't help but put aside the topic and said: "Uncle Yi, I don't understand... what's going on with you looking like this now?"
"Xiaoyue, take a sip of tea first and serve the good tea from the well."
Huangfu Yi smiled and said, "Please invite this guest as well, and listen to me."
The two of them nodded when they heard the words, took a sip of tea, and then Huangfu Yi said calmly: "This is a strange thing that happened in Hecheng recently. When I came back last morning, I took a drink from Tianquan somewhere on the outskirts of Hecheng as usual. Water and tea to keep healthy, but after just a few sips, it became like this.”
"There's something wrong with the water."
Chu Xiao clasped his chin and interjected.
"Well, when I saw this, I couldn't help but laugh or cry. Then I called the guards to ask, and they found out that I was so lucky."
Huangfu Yi held his forehead and seemed to have a headache and said, "The difficulty in making tea is to boil the water, and the quality of the water is important to the color of the tea. The quality of the spring water is the best, so many people pick it. Tea drinkers will go there to get water, but about a day or two ago..."
After a pause, Huangfu Yi continued, "Some people who drank from this spring actually disappeared, and there were inexplicably many more babies near the spring..."
"Could it be..."
Xia Houyue frowned and interrupted softly, "Those people turned into babies?"
"Rejuvenation?"
Chu Xiao was also slightly surprised.
Huangfu Yi nodded and said: "If it were normal times, I would not believe such weird things, but I tried it myself that day..."
"Ha, speaking of it, Xiaoyue, you, Uncle Yi, and I are really lucky. If I hadn't tasted tea in three categories, and the first one only had a little tea, then I'm afraid what you would have seen when you came here today was a crying person. Huangfu has a baby.”
His words, some smiles, and a sense of joy after escaping from a catastrophe.
"But I didn't expect that this kind of strange thing would make Uncle Yi younger."
Huangfu Yi said and sighed, "It's really a blessing in disguise."
"Then, what about the people who turned into babies?"
Chu Xiao said.
Huangfu Yi heard the sound, his face was heavy, and he nodded: "Of course we can't ignore it. The Huangfu family had blocked the mouth of the spring long after the incident, but I don't know if it was just good luck or something, but I came back just in time for them to change shifts and drank. A spring of water..."
"And the others all turned into babies, and it was no longer possible to identify who belonged to whose family. The quarrel over this matter was also very fierce."
Huangfu Yi said, moving his temples as if he had a headache, "But I'm still worried that this spring leads to many places. If there are channels that we don't know about, it flows into Hecheng City and irrigates the crops, then... "
