Chapter 260 The wanderer returns home
In the evening, the small fishing village was already filled with smoke, and many fishermen who had returned from the sea had also ended their busy day.
Every household gathered around the dining table and had dinner.
Only a few naughty children were still playing outside.
Some older teenagers helped to pack up the fishing gear and prepare for the next day's sea trip.
At the entrance of the village, Qin Tian, with a complicated expression on his face, was walking slowly according to his memory as a teenager, heading towards a certain part of the small fishing village.
But just at this moment, the door of a house was pushed open, and a burly man in his forties walked out.
After this man came out of the house, he saw Qin Tian not far away at first glance, and a hint of doubt suddenly appeared in his eyes.
Because Qin Tian practiced the "Star Body Refining Divine Art", his body shape changed a lot, and his appearance was slightly different from that of his youth.
In addition, he had been away from home for more than 20 years, and things had changed a lot.
Therefore, there are probably not many people who can recognize his identity at a glance in this small fishing village.
For example, the burly man, when Qin Tianxing approached, couldn't help but ask in confusion:
"Is this young man an outsider?"
During the conversation, the burly man couldn't help but show a hint of vigilance in his eyes, and it was obvious that he had been secretly on guard in his heart.
Hearing this, Qin Tian couldn't help but be slightly stunned. After carefully looking at the burly man in front of him, his eyes showed a hint of emotion, and he smiled and said:
"Da Hu! Look carefully, who am I?"
When this came out, the burly man opposite couldn't help but be stunned, but when his eyes carefully swept over Qin Tian's face, he suddenly remembered something and said in surprise:
"You... You are Qin Tian! How is this possible! How are you still so young!"
Speaking of this, the burly man, that is, Qin Tian's childhood playmate Da Hu, couldn't help but look horrified, as if he had seen a ghost.
But after only a moment, Dahu came to his senses and invited him warmly:
"I see you are exhausted, I'm afraid you haven't had dinner yet, come in quickly, I'll ask my wife to cook some good dishes and some liquor, our small fishing village doesn't have any good ingredients, it can't compare to the delicacies outside, don't be disgusted!"
While speaking, Dahu quickly made way and pulled Qin Tian to go into the house.
However, Qin Tian smiled bitterly and quickly refused:
"There is no rush for this matter, I'd better go home first!"
Hearing this, Dahu couldn't help but pat his head with his hand, and said a little embarrassedly:
"Yes, yes, yes! Look at my pig brain! You'd better go home quickly, Uncle Qin and Aunt Qin have been waiting for you at home for twenty years, they must be very happy to know you are back!"
Qin Tian nodded slightly after hearing this, and after saying goodbye to Dahu, he walked towards the door.
Soon, a small wooden courtyard slowly came into view, which was not much different from what he remembered.
And in the courtyard, there were faint voices of conversation coming out, obviously Qin's father and mother were chatting while having dinner.
Seeing this, Qin Tian's originally excited mood slowly calmed down, and then he reached out and knocked on the door without any hesitation.
With the dull knocking sound, the chat in the courtyard suddenly stopped.
Not long after, the door was slowly opened, revealing a woman with gray hair, wearing a coarse linen shirt, and a wrinkled face.
Upon closer inspection, it was undoubtedly Qin's mother.
When she saw Qin Tian standing outside the door, Qin's mother's slightly turbid eyes showed a hint of doubt.
However, Qin Tian, who was opposite, saw this, and his heart was mixed with mixed feelings. He couldn't help but shout:
"Mom! Tian'er is back!"
Hearing this, the courtyard instantly fell into silence.
Mother Qin reacted suddenly, her eyes suddenly brightened, staring at Qin Tian closely, her face full of surprise, she choked with tears and said:
"Tian'er! You are Tian'er! You are finally back! The father of the child! Tian'er is back!
As soon as the voice fell, a burst of hurried footsteps suddenly sounded in the courtyard.
Then an old man in his sixties with gray hair appeared directly outside the door. Upon closer inspection, it was Qin De who had been away for many years!
After arriving, the eyes Seeing Qin Tian's young face, Qin De couldn't help but flash a trace of shock in his eyes.
But only for a moment, Qin De seemed to remember something and hurriedly looked up behind Qin Tian.
But when he saw that there was no one behind Qin Tian, he couldn't help but reveal a deep disappointment in his eyes.
Qin Tian, standing outside the door, looked at his aging parents in front of him, and his heart was suddenly filled with mixed feelings. Then he knelt down on the ground and said loudly:
"Dad and Mom, please accept the greetings of your unfilial son Qin Tian! "
After saying this, Qin Tian suddenly bent down and kowtowed, hitting his forehead hard on the bluestone slab in front of the door.
However, due to his success in body training, his body was already extremely strong.
Therefore, the bluestone slab in the mortal world was directly smashed to pieces.
Seeing this scene, Qin Tian felt embarrassed.
But the two elders standing at the threshold were horrified, and Qin's mother looked distressed. She quickly reached out to help Qin Tian up and invited him into the courtyard.
Not long after, the three of them sat around the dining table.
Qin's mother was still a little emotional, crying with joy alone, and staring at Qin Tian from time to time, as if she was afraid that he would disappear again.
Qin De was much calmer and kept asking about Qin Tian's experiences over the years. It was obvious that he was also very concerned in his heart.
Qin Tian couldn't help but feel a little guilty about the two elders' gaffe, so he roughly explained a little bit about his quest to seek immortality, so that the two elders could feel at ease.
The two elders were naturally shocked by this, and while they were worried, they couldn't help but feel a little proud.
After all, in this ordinary fishing village, if you can have an "immortal" in your family, it is a good thing that your ancestors have accumulated good deeds, and it will be a good thing to spread the word.
However, just as the three of them were talking, a simple and honest voice sounded in the courtyard again:
"Dad! Mom! I heard that eldest brother is back! Is it true?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the door was pushed open, and a young man of medium build and dark skin, who was 50% similar to Qin Tian, appeared directly in the courtyard.
Seeing this scene, Qin Tian was slightly startled, then reacted instantly and quickly looked at the two elders with a surprised look on his face.
Qin De snorted coldly when he saw this, and shouted softly with some embarrassment:
"You brat, what are you looking at! You, who is bent on seeking immortality, asked, is the incense of the old Qin family going to be cut off in my hands?"
Mother Qin on the side couldn't help but look embarrassed at this moment...
