Chapter 473 The white snake knocks on the door, and it first arrives at Guo Bei(2/2)

There are countless ghosts and spirits in the human world.

Even in terms of combat power, Chen Jun encountered several thousand-year-old monsters that even he found troublesome.

Now that it's here, let's get rid of it together.

He opened the yellow-skinned gourd, looked at the desolate official road, and took a leisurely sip of wine in the dusk before leaving.

However, this Guobei County is different from the Guobei County that Chen Jun imagined was deserted and full of ghosts.

Although the official road is deserted, the surrounding scenery is beautiful. It is the busy autumn harvest season. Farmers are threshing the fields, children are playing happily, and there are even a few piles of fresh cow dung on the official road.

“The scenery is pretty good, with well-looking houses, fertile fields and beautiful ponds.”

Chen Jun walked slowly and unhurriedly, without deliberately speeding up.

For him, regular practice behind closed doors is almost useless. It is better to go out for a walk, travel in nature, and appreciate the world of mortals, which will make it easier for him to settle himself and then break through.

Guobei County is very big. Walking on the official road, Chen Jun could not see the end.

It was dusk again at this time. The farmer drank a large jar of water happily, then packed up his farm tools and went home. He and Chen Jun walked on the road together. Several naughty children saw him dressed as a scholar and asked curiously.

"Big brother, big brother, are you a scholar?"

"Do you think I look like a scholar?"

"Of course, our teacher has said that those who are dressed as nobles and look young while walking outside are usually scholars with a good reputation and need to be respected."

The peasant man carrying the hoe responded with a simple and shy smile, and did not dare to get too close to Chen Jun.

"Then you must listen to the teacher and study hard so that you can see the colorful world outside."

Chen Jun took out a few pieces of candy from his bag and distributed them to several children.

"It's so sweet, don't take it from me."

"This candy bar is so sweet, daddy, do you want to try it?"

"I don't want it, you can eat it yourself."

The middle-aged man carrying a hoe looked at the almost dark night and said, "Scholar, do you want to stay in our village for a night? There are many unclean things in the mountains and forests at night. It is very dangerous to walk at night. It is impossible to leave tomorrow."

Not too late."

"This...won't be nagging, right?"

"As long as you don't dislike it, it's fine. There aren't that many particularities in the village."

Chen Jun did not refuse, "My name is Xu Xian, may I ask my name?"

The middle-aged man was flattered, touched his head and laughed, "Just call me Daniel, I don't have a big name."

"Brother Daniel."

Chen Jun cupped his hands and smiled, "Excuse me, I wonder if you in Guobei County have ever heard of a temple called Lanruo Temple."

"Lanruo Temple?"

Daniel shook his head, "There doesn't seem to be a place called Lanruo Temple near us, but the old village chief should know that he is old, knows a lot of things, and has been to many places. Let me ask you."

"Thank you, Brother Daniel."

"Don't be polite to me. Look, our Liujia Village is just ahead."

Following Daniel's finger, Chen Jun saw the brightly lit village in front of him in the distance. The village was not too remote and close to Guobei County. There were several landlords' houses with spacious and elegant houses.

"What are so many people gathering in that courtyard in front of?" Chen Jun faintly smelled the smell of wine and meat.

"That's when Liu Bin, the grandson of the village chief's family, married a bride. It is said that she is a good girl from a medicine shop in the city. She married here. The old village chief is not a stingy person. He can have a glass of wedding wine tonight, like you, brother.

If you are a scholar, the village chief will definitely treat you as a guest."

"Yes, the teacher said that only by studying can one be successful. I want to be a scholar like my big brother."

"Then you have to work hard."

We walked from the flat official road to the rugged country road, bypassing the field ridges beside the village, and then arrived at the inner courtyard of the village.

"Liu Daniu, come here quickly, otherwise there won't be a seat for you at the village chief's house. There is good wine and meat waiting here."

A loud shout came from the lit yard in front. Liu Daniu hurriedly put down his hoe and rushed there with his children and Chen Jun.

The courtyard of the village chief's house is much larger than the dilapidated courtyard of Liu Daniu's house. There are about ten tables of banquets inside, and more than twenty tables of banquets extending outside the courtyard. Almost all the men, women, and children in the village have been entertained.

"I, Liu Ruowen, am the village chief here. May I ask my husband what his name is?"

An older man came over on crutches. He was wearing a long gown and looked to be in his 50s. Behind him were Liu Daniu and other young and middle-aged men from the village.

"Xu Xian, named in Chinese, comes from Qiantang."

The old village chief sighed: "Qiantang is a famous city. The young master behaves politely and has an extraordinary demeanor, but he has fame and honor."

"Passed the college examination."

Chen Jun was a little embarrassed. As a time-traveler, he was a scholar. Not to mention the number one scholar who passed three yuan, he could barely show his hands with a talent.

But for the people of Liujia Village who never even had a child, this was already a distinguished cultural guest.

"My husband, please sit down with me."

The old village chief respected the scholar very much and took Chen Jun to sit at the same table with him.

The table is filled with the same dishes, including chicken, duck, fish, meat, as well as mountain-specific wild boar slices, stir-fried rabbit meat and fresh wild vegetables. For villagers who rarely eat meat, they can only eat it once during the Chinese New Year.

The food is luxurious.

"I respect you, my husband, and I respect you too."

The villagers were hospitable and came over to toast Chen Jun one after another, but he did not refuse.

After eating, drinking and making trouble, I heard the sound of blowing and beating of gongs and drums. It turned out that the bride was being led into the yard by the matchmaker in her wedding clothes, followed by a few naughty children to earn a few coins.

When the bride half-steps across the threshold of the room.

Chen Jun put the wine glass on the table and said softly: "You can't get in through this door." His voice was not loud, but the whole courtyard was buzzing and shaking like thunder.

The bride stopped.

The old village chief and the young grandson looked at each other in confusion.

"Take off that red hijab. I'm disgusted by what you look like."

Liu Bin, the grandson of the old village chief, asked, "What do you mean by my husband's words?"

After all, the old village chief was a well-informed person. He held his grandson's hand, looked at the bride, and said in a deep voice, "My unmarried grandson-in-law, lift your hijab so that the villagers can see the girls in the city."

."

"Do you really want to see me, father-in-law?"

The voice came out from under the red hijab, as gentle as water.
