Chapter 134: Away from the Prosperity
A year later
This is a village far away from the bustling, has a history of more than 300 years, is called "grain village", many people here have never left the village in their lives, the people who left have never come back, the grain village is located in the mountains, if you want to leave you must climb over the mountains, it is very dangerous, it is also very difficult, even so, it is difficult to stop some young people who want to be in the wider world, in the past three hundred years, the grain village has changed from the beginning of thousands of households to less than 100 households now, leaving more than coming in, more old people than young children, more men than women.
Decades have passed, only a young couple moved in, the man is handsome, like a fairy in the sky, the woman is petite and beautiful, as follows the mortal fairy, this pair of fairy couple-like people came to the grain village, at first the villagers thought that these two people were just curious about the life here, and they would leave in a few days, but they didn't expect that these two people stayed for a whole year, and they had fully adapted to the life here, and got along very well with the villagers.
These two people are the same Bing Lan and Chi Yan who disappeared from Nanqi a year ago, and for a year, they have cut off contact with the outside world and don't know what is going on outside.
When they first arrived, they tried to restore their magic powers, but they found nothing.
Bing Lan once said, "I want to find a place where the mountains and rivers are exhausted, and we will build a farmhouse." ”
They came to the grain village, Binglan used the money to buy a somewhat dilapidated courtyard, and with the help of the villagers, it only took half a month to repair the place as if it were newly built.
Bing Lan also said: "I want to raise some poultry." ”
Chi Yan went into the mountains to hunt, caught a lot of pheasants and wild boars, and bought some other poultry from the villagers, and lived next door to Granny Wang, who received a lot of help from two people, and gave two people a few rabbits and a white and soft little milk dog, Bing Lan named the dog "Xiaoxi", and after confirming its gender, he said to Xiaoxi, "You will be Xiaodong's sister in the future, you have a lazy and fat brother, of course, it is possible that you will not see each other for the rest of your life." Xiaoxi doesn't seem to grow up, and Xiaodong's personality is completely opposite, he always likes to sleep quietly at Binglan's feet, and all kinds of states make Binglan suspect that this is a lazy cat instead of a dog.
Bing Lan's last wish to Chi Yan was: "You go out to chop wood and hunt, and I will make a fire at home to cook." ”
On this day, Bing Lan added some water to the pot, covered it, turned around and cut vegetables, Xiaoxi has been following Bing Lan's feet, not noisy, not in the way, very well-behaved.
"Blue Lady!" came from outside the house the voice of Aunt Qian, who often came to visit the door, this Aunt Qian is a widow, a person to raise her son, the son when he just turned sixteen, out of the mountain alone, since then there is no news, I don't know whether it is dead or alive, Aunt Qian was sad for a few years and then relieved, thinking that her children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren. Since Binglan and Chi Yan moved here, they have often come here, saying that every time they see Chi Yan, they think of her son, and when they see Binglan, they think that it would be good if their son could find such a beautiful and sensible daughter-in-law outside.
Bing Lan opened the door when she heard the sound, and saw Aunt Qian holding a bowl in her hand, walking cautiously, with a smile on her face.
"Have you sent us delicious food again?" Aunt Qian is very enthusiastic, as long as the family makes a new dish, she will bring it over, oh, I almost forgot to say, Binglan and Chi Yan held a wedding in the village half a year ago, Aunt Qian and Granny Wang next door sat in the right seat as the elders of the two, drank tea and toasted, Aunt Qian has always regarded Binglan as a new daughter-in-law, what should a married woman in the village do, she taught her by hand.
"Ahem, what's delicious, I boiled some winter melon soup, it tastes okay, bring it to you to taste. ”
Bing Lan thanked him, took out two clean bowls from the cabinet, and poured the winter melon soup into it.
"Did your father-in-law go out to chop wood?"
"yes. Bing Lan remembered that Chi Yan went out hunting with the people in the village for the first time and felt funny, he lived for two lifetimes, or the first time he couldn't use magic power to subdue those running beasts in the mountains, each villager came back with a lot of fruits on the guns on his shoulders, there were pheasants, there were wild boars, only Chi Yan held two white rabbits in his arms, and took them home, Bing Lan was reluctant to eat, put them in a cage and raised them, but now the yard is running some white rabbits, all of which are the descendants of the first two.
"Chi Yan, this young man is capable, you see that he didn't know anything at the beginning, but now it's good, those gentlemen in the village together are not enough for Chi Yan to catch more things alone. ”
Bing Lan lowered her head, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, and couldn't hide the happy expression on her face, she lifted the lid of the pot and put out the noodles inside.
"Oh, Blue Lady, you have to put some cold water on this side after it comes out, otherwise the noodles will be messy, and it won't taste good." Aunt Qian said as she put cold water in the noodles.
Bing Lan nodded humbly, and she learned another trick.
After a little more chatter, Ice Blue covered all the prepared meals with something to prevent them from getting cold.
"Listen to the voice, the village gentlemen have returned. ”
Bing Lan also heard it, and hurriedly opened the door to look out into the courtyard.
The gate in the courtyard "creaked" and was opened from the outside.
Chi Yan carried a bundle of firewood in one hand and dragged the ears of two hares with the other, put the firewood on the ground, turned and closed the door.
Because of the long-term exposure to the wind and sun, Chi Yan is a lot darker than a year ago, of course, he is also a lot stronger, and he has added a mature man's air to his body.
Bing Lan threw down the water scoop in her hand and hurriedly went out to help Chi Yan carry the firewood into the firewood room.
Chi Yan looked at Bing Lan and lowered his head to imprint a kiss on her face.
Bing Lan wanted to dodge, but he didn't dodge, but was wiped by many people.
"Oh, want to change your family?"
Bing Lan found that this year, Chi Yan is not only darker and stronger, but also has a much thicker skin than before, since recovering his memory, the hooligan's momentum has become stronger and stronger day by day, and now his expression is almost trembling his legs, holding a stick in his mouth, and he said frivolously, "The little lady is so handsome, let the uncle kiss her." ”
"Don't make trouble, Aunt Qian is still in the house. ”
Fortunately, Chi Yan was just thick-skinned towards Binglan, and he was just playing hooligan with her, and when he heard that there were others in the room, he was busy changing his face and put on a serious expression, which seemed to be a talent.
"Okay, now that Ji Xianggong is back, I should also go. Aunt Qian pushed the door and walked out, smiled and waved her hand at the two people, and left happily.
"You walk slowly. "Bing Lan went to send Aunt Qian.
When Bing Lan came back, Chi Yan had already cleaned up the dining table, and even brushed the pot by the way.
"Lady, come and eat. Seeing Bing Lan come in, Chi Yan stood up, took Bing Lan's hand, and asked her to sit down.
"The fried noodles I made, the winter melon soup given by Aunt Qian. Bing Lan said as she served noodles to Chi Yan.
"What did you do? ”
Bing Lan glanced at Chi Yan, didn't listen to him, and handed him the bowl of noodles: "Serve it after eating." ”
Taking the bowl, Chi Yan chuckled.
Looking at the dishes on the table, Bing Lan has no appetite, probably because she didn't eat breakfast, her stomach is a little uncomfortable, thinking of this, Bing Lan looked at the soup sent by Aunt Qian, the white winter melon floating on it looked quite appetizing, drink some hot soup first, and the stomach should not be too uncomfortable.
Thinking about it, Binglan took a sip from the bowl, and the familiar taste lingered on the tip of her nose, which made Binglan's stomach even more uncomfortable.
Oops, vomit!
Bing Lan put the bowl on the table, covered her mouth and ran out.
