Heroes of the Fantasy World

Chapter 212 My heart is long, what are my thoughts?
(4)

The one-month house arrest finally came to an end, and Zhao Kuo, who was grounded for his frivolous behavior, was able to see the light of day again.This should have been a happy day, and Zhao Kuo's mood was not in the slightest sense of depression. Although his figure was much thinner and the contours of his cheeks became sharper, he still did not let his poor physical condition prevail. With the ambitions that have already been scorched in full swing in the chest, it is enough to make this body glow again.

However, he never seemed to have thought about the difficult choice he would make.

In response to Zhao Wei's invitation, Bai Feng came to Zhao's mansion at dawn on this day.At that time, apart from the servants in the mansion, the only one who received him was Zhao Wei who got up early every day to worship the Buddha.Therefore, he naturally waited on Zhao Wei's side and accompanied him to worship the Buddha in front of the Buddhist hall.

The two of them rarely spoke to each other, and even if they did, it was usually inseparable from ordinary greetings. Anyway, neither of them mentioned the "silver robbery case", for fear of offending something.Therefore, Bai Feng has the leisure to observe the most special place in this mansion.

There are always people who say that the Zhao family respects Confucianism and morality, is willing to do good, is a wealthy businessman, and is also a great benevolent person who is famous in the Seven Towns.

The Buddha enshrined by the Zhao family is plated with several layers of gold; the algae well on the top of the Buddhist hall is inlaid with dozens of pearls and precious stones; Expression, or kind, or angry.

There is no peerless treasure hidden in this Buddhist hall, but the cost of construction is something ordinary people can't earn in their entire lives.Its true appearance concealed its simple exterior so beautifully that anyone would feel that this was what the Zhao family wanted so sincerely that they were able to spend a lot of money to set aside a small place in this not-so-luxury mansion for special worship.

However, in the eyes of the young swordsman, all of this would at most be a dazzling splendor, making him admire the works of these skilled craftsmen in front of him, because he knew very well that the man in front of him was by no means as simple as it seemed.

Before he came back to his senses under the solemn gaze of the Buddha, a servant came to report from outside the door, saying that the brothers and sisters of the Zhao family had already sat down in the living room and waited.

Facing close friends who haven't seen each other for many days, there are always many things in my heart that I want to talk to each other, especially when these people got together last time, they were still far away in Yangcheng, which naturally deepened the significance of this gathering.

Zhao Wei ordered people to set up a table banquet, as if to keep Bai Feng and others talking for a long time.Unfortunately, he was the only one who planned this way.

"Bai Shaoxia, the entire Zhao Mansion will hold a banquet for you early in the morning. This is a unique event. I want to drink to my heart's content today, so as to celebrate the great achievements Bai Shaoxia made a few days ago!" Zhao Wei ordered the servant beside him to fill a glass of wine for himself , Said: "The old man does it first and respects it!"

The young swordsman also took a glass of wine, gulped it down, and replied: "Thank you Mr. Zhao, I really don't want to take credit for it, this banquet is even more worthy of it!"

"Oh? How do you say that?"

"The credit goes to General Yao and Ms. Lou, who led the army to destroy the bandits. I didn't accomplish anything at all. Besides, the old injuries on my body often recur. The doctor told me that I need to abstain from alcohol and dryness to recover..."

Zhao Wei said: "But now everyone knows that you are the one who found the 'Yi Xiao Huang Quan'. If you don't reward us, how will the people around us treat us? If we are slandered by rumors, saying that our Zhao family is a businessman by nature, greedy for profit, At that time, it will be difficult to adjust the public opinion."

"This..." Bai Feng doubted, then looked helplessly at the Zhao brothers and sisters.

Zhao Xiaomei and Zhao Kuo had already estimated this situation, so she took the lead in agreeing: "Young Master Bai is now alone, and he must feel the difficulty of being homeless. If Daddy insists on rewarding him, why don't you just let him Bai Shaoxia settled down in Yuyi Town, so that he no longer has to be a rootless duckweed!"

"Little sister, this is a wonderful move!" Zhao Kuo sang and said, "Father, no matter what you say now, Brother Bai is living under the fence, which means that a man will not tolerate it. We might as well fulfill him and let him have one in Yuyi Town." New home'?"

"You two brothers and sisters, have you really learned to think about others now?" Zhao Wei rubbed his beard and laughed again and again: "Hahaha, maybe this is a good idea? Kuoer, what do you think?"

"My child vaguely remembers that a few years ago we destroyed a Taiping Taoist temple in Yuyi Town. Although it has been abandoned for several years, its basic structure is still intact." Zhao Kuo said: "Why don't we send people to repair that place? If it is intact, then give it to Brother Bai!"

Zhao Wei said: "Since that's the case, I don't know what Bai Shaoxia wants?"

"Your Majesty, I am very willing! If possible, I would like to go to that Taoist temple now!" Bai Feng swept away the haze on his face and beamed with joy.

"Of course, Young Master Bai. Your Excellency is indifferent to fame and fortune, which is really admirable. Since you want to see your future 'new home', then I won't force you to stay as a guest. Let my younger sister and Kuo'er go with you!"

After Zhao Wei finished speaking, he immediately left the banquet and went to do other things.He always came and went in a hurry because of various trivial matters, and only when he worshiped the Buddha early in the morning could people suddenly realize that the head of the Zhao family in front of him was no longer a young man full of vitality.

It is this seemingly hard-working skin that can be so confusing.In front of his children, he tried his best to be kind and kind, but he could easily send Fan Liwu, a cruel official, to teach the brothers and sisters of the Zhao family. It can be seen that the depth of his city is unimaginable.Every time he thinks of this, Bai Feng always shudders. This kind of subtle emotion makes him dare not meet Zhao Wei's eyes.

After seeing off Zhao Wei, Bai Feng and Zhao's brothers and sisters got into their carriages and went straight to the Taiping Taoist Temple located in the southwest of the town.

This journey may be a bit farther than before, since it is necessary to go from the southeast corner of the town to the southwest corner, so it basically takes more than half a circle around the entire Yuyi Town.

Looking at the scenery of Yuyi Town, people who have just arrived in the town will feel as if they have passed away, because the seven towns in the north are all isolated by desert grasslands, and the inside and outside of the town are completely different worlds.

However, for those who have lived in Yuyi Town since childhood, such as the brothers and sisters of the Zhao family, this is their memory, a part of their lives, an inseparable feeling, and an inescapable longing.

Zhao Xiaomei sat in the carriage and looked out the window, tears kept rolling in her eyes, she always felt that this was the last time she saw such a familiar scenery.

The streets, doors, windows, and roofs that seemed nothing special in the past are now extraordinary in her eyes; even those places that are too ordinary will be combined with the hazy scenes in her eyes to re-coat them with a new look, slowly come to mind.
