Chapter 62: The Return of the Layman

Turn back, return to the cave, and wait for the dawn.

After a while, there was a sound of rustling next door, and the old shepherd got up.

The hens in the yard were active, and they kept barking around their owners. The old shepherd scooped half a scoop of corn with a ladle of water and scattered it on the ground.

Liu Daode pushed the door out and greeted the old man: "Uncle, it's early"

"Morning, how did you sleep last night?" asked the old shepherd, putting down the water ladle.

"It's good, I sleep until dawn"

"Just sleep well, I'm afraid you won't get used to sleeping in my house. The old shepherd grabbed the pole that leaned against the wall, and commanded, "Rest in the courtyard for a while, and I will go and fetch water." ”

"Uncle, I'll go with you, just exercise and exercise," Liu Daode said and followed.

The well is not far away, just outside an abandoned cave.

The top of the wellhead is covered with bluestone slabs, and a round hole is dug in the middle, and a wheel derrick is also supported on the top, and a thick well rope is wound.

Seeing the old shepherd standing by the well, Liu Daode took the initiative to take the bucket and hung it on the iron hook at the end of the well rope to draw water.

There were also in Liu Village in Hedong before, and he was quite familiar with this.

The difference is that there is a shortage of water on the Loess Plateau, and it took nearly a minute to hear the sound of the bucket falling to the bottom.

After more than ten seconds, Liu Daode felt that the bucket was full, and then stirred the wheel again.

When the two buckets of water were full, he naturally grabbed the flat pole, bent over, and hung the bucket.

"You rest, let me come, you young people have never carried water, this road is not easy to walk, it is easy to fall. The old shepherd hurriedly spoke.

"It's okay, uncle, I'll go slower. Liu Daode got up as he spoke, picked up the bucket and walked back steadily.

With his body, two buckets of water are not a problem at all. When I got home, I didn't even breathe.

After breakfast, he refused to be led by the old shepherd to the town, and Liu Daode walked alone along the ditch towards the distance.

When I walked far away and turned the mountain beam, I still saw the other party standing on a high slope and looking around.

Traveling thousands of miles, I didn't expect to find an opportunity in an abandoned village, what a coincidence.

But when you think about it, it's not a coincidence. Liu Daode was originally only one line away from being able to break through his state of mind, even if he didn't realize the Tao in the Jiuqu Yellow River Lantern Array last night, he would break through sooner or later.

The Jiuqu Yellow River Lantern Array is only an introduction, and the change of mood is the fundamental.

The Loess Plateau in late autumn is brilliantly coloured, with mountains rising and lows in the distance, yellow, orange and orange millets in the distance, red sorghum swaying in the wind, golden sunflowers, and crimson buckwheat...... The mood has changed, Liu Daode looks at the Loess Plateau again, and feels like a colorful oil painting, which is not only the power of heaven and earth, but also the masterpiece of mankind.

However, although it is good, it is not a place to stay for a long time. Liu Daode has been away from home for more than a month, and his heart is like an arrow at the moment.

After arriving in the town, he took the shuttle bus to the county seat. Then go to the provincial capital, and then take a bus from the provincial capital...... After four or five transfers, in two days, when Liu Daode got off again, his feet had already stepped on the land of Shannan Town.

The familiar streets, not a single qiē changed, and somehow, his heart suddenly relaxed.

"Liu Daodao, Liu Daodao......" was looking at it, and a voice came from behind.

Turning his head, he saw Lin Xiaotong pushing a bicycle, and Qiao Shengsheng was standing not far away. Yesterday, the two had just spoken on the phone, and Liu Daode told him that he was going back to the village.

"Why are you here?" he asked, hurrying a few steps closer.

"I didn't come to town in the morning to deliver eggs, so I waited here for a while. Lin Xiaotong looked him up and down a few times and replied.

"What are you looking at, I have ash on my face?" Liu Daode wiped a handful of his face and asked rhetorically.

"It's nothing," Lin Xiaotong shook his head, pointed to the bicycle and said, "Why are you so blind, and let me push it." ”

"I'll push, I'll push" Liu Daode hurriedly took it.

"Do you have anything else to do, let's go back to the village if it's okay?"

"No, I'll hump you. Liu Daodao's legs drooped and he was already sitting in the saddle.

Lin Xiaotong sat behind him, grabbing his clothes with both hands.

Out of town, the bicycle swayed towards the village. Walking one or two hundred meters away, Lin Xiaotong couldn't help but ask: "Liu Daodao, tell me where you have been for more than a month, why do I feel that you have changed again?"

"Where has changed?" Liu Daode looked into the field and asked rhetorically. Before leaving, the corn in the field had not yet been eared, and the peanuts were blooming, and now the crops in the field had been harvested and were empty.

"I can't say it, I feel like you have a bit of the temperament of a worldly master," Lin Xiaotong didn't know why, the first time he saw Liu Daode just now, he always felt that the other party had a more chic and comfortable posture.

"The world's masters...... Is it really fake?" Liu Daode asked rhetorically, the incense power had completely fallen silent, and the whole person was completely flat.

"Fake," Lin Xiaotong responded.

"By the way, I'll report to you when I go back, this month or so, our treasure store business is very good, I couldn't tell you on the phone before, do you guess how much money you sold last week?"

"How much?" Liu Daode asked rhetorically.

"More than four hundred and thirty yuan, how about it, I'm amazing" Lin Xiaotong said very arrogantly.

"It's really amazing, what are you selling?" asked Liu Daode with some surprise.

"Native eggs are the big head, and there are many orders for hatching chicks during this time, so I connected three orders and ate two eggs. There are also a few orders of unicorn fairy, pheasant feathers, and small snails, one each single," Lin Xiaotong reported. I don't know why, she really wants to share her harvest these days with the other party.

"You've worked hard," Liu Daode paused and spoke. Now that I think about it, it was really irresponsible for him to leave suddenly and hand over the treasure digging shop to Lin Xiaotong alone.

"It's not hard, I'm feeling energetic now,"

……

The two talked casually, and soon arrived at the entrance of the village. Now that the autumn harvest is over, there is basically nothing to do in the village, and many people gather under the trees to play cards and chess.

Liu Daodao, who was watching the battle from the side, inadvertently turned his head and shouted: "****, lazy, do you still know to come back?!"

"Where is the lazy man," Liu Daojun also looked towards the road, and then put down the card: "The lazy man is back!!"

"Liu Daodao, I heard that you went out to travel, where did you get it, this time is not short" A familiar tourist also greeted from afar.

For a time, the village was lively.

Liu Daode took out the cigarettes he bought in the town and scattered them one by one.

Many people are most concerned about where he travels, and he has been gone for more than a month.

Liu Daode told the basic line he walked, and of course, omitted a lot of content.

After chatting with everyone for a while, I pushed my bicycle home.

Before he arrived at the door, the sophomore general had already rushed to greet him, circling around his master's body.

When they entered the yard, foodies also rushed over.

"You sit, I'll cook," Lin Xiaotong said naturally. In the past month of rural life, she has basically learned to cook.

Sitting on the stone bench, a familiar feeling ensues.

There is no change in the courtyard, and Liu Daode has not changed either, the lazy and lazy layman is back!xh:.74.240.212
