Huashan Zhangmen Road

Chapter 357

Lao Huang is a gatekeeper guarding the city gate of Dongning City. He is leaning on a long spear and standing in front of the city gate with his hands folded. Because it is cold, Lao Huang stamps his feet to keep warm from time to time and curses the dog. God, the thief of Japan, made this winter so cold.

"Uncle Huang, Uncle Huang, this is the roasted sweet potato that my father asked me to bring you to keep warm."

A little girl carved in powder and jade ran up to Lao Huang standing on the gate of the city, raised her hand and handed Lao Huang a piece of steaming roasted sweet potato.The little girl seemed to be running around the gates of the city. The gate guards guarding the city gates all smiled kindly when they saw the little girl and let her go.

The little girl said that the roasted sweet potatoes were given to Lao Huang, but a pair of Wuling's pitch-black eyes rolled back and forth on the roasted sweet potatoes.

"Little Yun'er is so cute."

Lao Huang took the roasted sweet potato from Xiao Yun'er, dropped the weapon in his hand, and picked up Xiao Yun'er.

"Xiao Yun'er is so good. Brother Jiang has a heart. He always thinks of me, Lao Huang, for all good things. Come, Xiao Yun'er, eat half of this sweet potato."

Lao Huang divided the roasted sweet potato into two parts, peeled off the skin, and sent the steaming half-air roasted sweet potato to the mouth of the little girl in his arms.

"Thank you uncle."

Xiaoyun'er took half a piece of peeled and roasted sweet potato and ate it happily.

"Thank you very much. This is the roasted sweet potato brought by Xiao Yun'er. Brother Jiang brought it. If it weren't for you and your daughter, I, Lao Huang, would not be able to have this hot and fragrant roasted sweet potato."

The surrounding city gate soldiers looked at Old Huang with envy. Several young city gate soldiers turned their faces away, their adam's apples agitated, but they secretly swallowed their saliva.But Lao Huang can't help it, there is only one roasted sweet potato, and there are so many soldiers in the city gate, no one can give it to anyone, it's better to eat it at home.

"Eat slowly, little Yun'er!"

Lao Huang wiped the dust standing at the corner of Xiao Yun'er's mouth with his sleeve, and said with a smile.

"Ying'er, grab something to eat from Uncle Huang again, there are still some at home, don't grab something to eat from Uncle Huang."

Not far from the city gate, a slender woman walked out of a courtyard close to the main street. The woman was dressed in water-colored clothes, her black hair was tied behind her head, showing a snow-white neck, and she was looking at the old man. Xiao Yun'er, who was greedy for roasted sweet potatoes in Huang Huai's arms, said angrily.

"What are you talking about, sisters and brothers of the Jiang family, Xiao Yun'er came here to give me roasted sweet potatoes in this cold weather, but it's not enough for my uncle to warm his hands with roasted sweet potatoes. Okay, Xiaoyun Son, hurry back, it's cold outside, don't freeze."

Lao Huang put down Xiao Yun'er, smiled and said to the woman under the porch in the distance, saw Xiao Yun'er and the woman enter the yard holding hands, Lao Huang ate most of the roasted sweet potatoes in three mouthfuls, picked up the spear again, and prepared Guard the gates.

"Old Huang, you old boy, did the boy from the Jiang family give you the roasted sweet potatoes? Hey, I really don't understand. Old Huang, that boy from the Jiang family can write and do arithmetic, and he's also good at teaching. Shu, why do I have such a good relationship with you, a city gate soldier? Grandma, I, Li Erdai, are so handsome, why didn’t anyone come to me and bring me half a piece of roasted sweet potato? Alas, I really didn’t have a good child. Neighbor!"

A man in city gate uniform came in from outside the city gate, looked at the roasted sweet potato in Lao Huang's hand, and couldn't help cursing.The man and Lao Huang's squad are both the city gate army on the task of guarding the city gate. Just now because of a stomachache, they went to find a place outside the city to relax. Can't help but say enviously.

"roll roll roll……"

Lao Huang kicked Li Er who was about to come up in disgust, and threw the remaining bit of roasted sweet potato into his mouth whole, and then laughed and cursed.

"You are a bastard. Every month's salary is used to drink flowers and wine, play gambling, and borrow half of the money from your neighbor Li Laosan. It has been almost a year and you still refuse to pay it back. If someone is willing If I deal with you and bring you roasted sweet potatoes, then that’s a problem. If you continue to gamble, you’ll lose everything sooner or later.”

"Bah ah..."

"Tong Yan Wuji...ah, it's the old ghost Yan Wuji!"

Seeing that he failed to take advantage of Lao Huang, Li Erdai didn't want to be scolded by Lao Huang. He spat in frustration and walked to the other side of the city gate with his own spear. He walked away with a tone full of broken curses.

"Hey, I said Lao Huang, why are you so close to the Jiang family? I, Li Er, don't understand. You Lao Huang is vulgar and ugly, not even half of my Li Er. The Jiang family That little daughter-in-law, why is the little girl willing to get close to you, even refusing to look at me?"

After being quiet for a while, Li Erdai started pestering Lao Huang again.Today is New Year's Eve, and the Chinese New Year is about to come. There are quite few people entering and leaving the city gate. Li Erdai and Lao Huang are not as busy as usual. Get to the bottom of it.

"why……"

Lao Huang was stunned for a moment, turned his head to look at the courtyard facing the street, his eyes turned a little sad, if it wasn't for Brother Jiang, he might still be the same as Li Erdai now, still living this life The unexamined days led to the destruction of the family and the death of the parents without knowing it.

"It's snowing, Lao Huang, you damn thief. It's snowing while my brothers are on duty. Why didn't it snow when those two bastards, Lao Hu and Ding Er, were on duty? Damn you, bastard!" Damn it’s not fair, I’ve been losing money in gambling these days, it must have something to do with you being a thief..."

Snowflakes fell from the sky, and Li Erdai began to curse again.

"Brother Jiang, siblings, it's snowing now, you guys are going out of the city with little Yun'er, don't freeze Yun'er, it's cold today."

Old Huang was walking back and forth in front of the city gate, using the walking to generate some heat and warm his body, when he suddenly saw a family of three young Jiang family coming out of the courtyard facing the street. When the three of them walked to the city gate, Lao Huang asked said.

"Yes, Brother Huang, isn't it the Chinese New Year today? Ying'er has to go see her grandpa. My wife misses her father-in-law too, and everything is fine, so I took them to my father-in-law's house to celebrate the New Year. I've already given Uncle Huang's medicine. It’s ready, put it in the firewood room, the door is unlocked, brother Huang can take it by himself.”

"Chengcheng, thank you, Brother Jiang, be careful on the road, stay at Xiaoyun'er's grandfather's house for a few more days, and I will hand over your yard to Lao Huang to look at it. Don't think about stealing your stuff."

Lao Huang patted his chest and made a promise to Jiang Yan.

"Then thank you, Brother Huang."

Jiang Yan thanked Lao Huang, hugged Yun Ying, and walked out of the city gate hand in hand with Tang Wan.

"Brother, the snowflakes are so beautiful, I want to play with the snow."

As soon as he got out of the city gate, Yun Ying was twisting and turning in Jiang Yan's arms, slipped down from Jiang Yan's arms, and trotted, leaving a sound of laughter like silver bells on the snowy road.

"Wang Wang..."

"Wang Wang..."

In the distance, two puppies, one black and one white, were like two bolts of lightning, flying into the arms of the jumping cloud shadow in front of them.

"Xiao Hei, Xiao Bai!"

Yun Ying hugged the two spiritual beasts that ran towards him and shouted excitedly.

"Senior brother, senior sister, Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai are here!"

Yun Ying pulled Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai's scalps, and brought the two spirit beasts to Jiang Yan and Yun Ying, her pretty face was full of joy.

Feeling the powerful spiritual power breaking through the sky in the distance, Jiang Yan sighed. He had calculated countless times, but finally missed the human-finding abilities of Roaring Sky Dog and Roaring Soul Dog.Monk Kongse finally found himself with the help of Xiaohungou and Xiaotiangou.

It has been a long time since Jiang Yan was slapped by Monk Kongse. At that time, Jiang Yan was teleported to a village outside Dongning City with the help of the teleportation array of the protective waist card. After saving a helpless old man who was dying, the three of them stayed outside Dongning city.Although the old man was helpless, his status was not low, because Tang Wan saved him, he made the decision and recognized Tang Wan as his adopted daughter.

For the sake of his adopted daughter, the old man even held a wedding banquet for Tang Wan and Jiang Yan, and then used his own identity to find a teaching job in an academy in Dongning City for his cheap daughter and cheap son-in-law , Jiang Yan used the old man's money to build a yard in Dongning City.

After buying the yard, because the son of the neighbor Huang’s family was incompetent, Jiang Yan had to give that boy a good education. With his own eloquence, Jiang Yan was grateful for what Lao Huang said, and completely corrected his evil ways. Today, Lao Huang Respecting your father and being friendly to your neighbors has actually become a four-good city gate army in Dongning City.Today, because of his uneasy mind, Jiang Yan thought that taking Tang Wan would make it easier for his father-in-law to visit his relatives. Who would have thought that as soon as he left the city, he would meet Xiao Tiangou.

"Finally we found it!"

Jiang Yan sighed and looked at the distant sky. Although Jiang Yan's cultivation base was sealed by the Hidden World Talisman, Jiang Yan was a third-grade Talisman master, so his spiritual consciousness cultivation was so powerful that he didn't need the power of his spiritual consciousness to get out of the sea of ​​​​spiritual consciousness. , I can also feel the unrelenting and powerful spiritual power of Monk Kongse.Now monk Jiang Yan did not restrain his spiritual power at all, it must be because he found the three of them.

"Senior brother, Monk Kongse is finally here?"

Tang Wan looked at Jiang Yan suspiciously and asked, her cultivation had been sealed by the Hidden World Talisman, Tang Wan was almost an ordinary woman now, when she saw Xiao Tiangou, combined with Jiang Yan's sigh, she knew that the monk Kong Se had finally arrived.

"Let's go see my father, senior brother. Even if Monk Kongse wants to kill us, let me go and see my father for the last time."

Tang Wan lowered his head slightly and looked at Jiang Yan with a nervous look in his eyes.

Jiang Yan was slightly stunned, it was a critical moment of life and death, and Wan'er even thought about going to see Mr. Tang. It seems that Mr. Tang held a wedding for Wan'er, but it made Wan'er feel a sense of dissatisfaction with the old man. A lot of attachment.But this is not surprising, Wan'er grew up in Huashan since she was a child, and she suddenly enjoyed her father's love, so she was naturally full of attachment to Mr. Tang.

"Okay then, let's go see my father-in-law."

Jiang Yan instantly let go of what she thought in her mind, whether it was a blessing or a curse, since the emptiness had come, she couldn't hide even if she wanted to, now Wan'er wanted to see Mr. Tang, so she went to see Mr. Tang for the last time.

"Let's go to see grandpa."

Yun Ying clapped her little hands, and ran forward happily, jumping and shouting. After a while, the ground was already covered with whiteness. Ying'er ran in front, followed by two running happily, one black and one white. The two spirit beasts...
