Chapter 9: The Law of True Fragrance

"This place is a bit desolate!"

Lu Yifan held the long sword and walked in the silent snowy world.

The snow is very thick, sometimes it doesn't go past Lu Yifan's waist and abdomen, sometimes it only reaches his ankles, if he is an experienced snow hunter, he may be able to tell the thickness of the snow, but Lu Yifan obviously can't, which makes him suffer a lot.

The heavy snow fell all night, and Lu Yifan also walked all night, he didn't argue about the direction, so he walked straight forward in one direction, and the snow on his body was full and he was full, and he was full of shots, so he walked through the night and ushered in the early morning, and at the same time, the heavy snow gradually stopped.

Maybe it's the old saying 'the snow doesn't get cold when it falls', after a night, Lu Yifan didn't feel cold, but a little hot, of course, it also had something to do with his success in entering the Tao, although the Dao fire did not burn the plain, but it could also provide him with some warmth.

Creak~

I saw Lu Yifan holding a long sword, picked up a large ball of snow from the ground with both hands, kneaded it round and hard, put it to his mouth and chewed it a few times, and then left it on the side.

"Ahh

At this time, it was early in the morning, Lu Yifan was in good spirits, but he was also very hungry, he hadn't eaten for a day or two nights, if he changed to an adult, maybe it would not be a big problem, but for a ten-year-old body, it was enough to be hungry and faint.

After walking all night, let alone meeting people, not even animals encountered one, which made Lu Yifan's long sword useless.

"Am I going in the wrong direction?"

Lu Yifan walked for a long time, and finally saw a sheep's horn mountain in front of him, and he was going to climb to the top of the low mountain to see if there was a suitable direction nearby.

Sheephorn Mountain is not high or big, it is very gentle, but when he is about to reach the top of the mountain, he does not check, and his body falls straight down.

When he crawled out of the pit with a lot of effort and patted the snow on his body, he found that on the other side of the pit, there was a long footprint, looking at its shape, it should be a human being, and it was similar to Lu Yifan's footprints, but Lu Yifan was very sure that these footprints were definitely not his own.

"It looks like someone is moving, and it's not long ago!"

Lu Yifan observed the row of footprints meaningfully, it came from the other direction of the trap, and then turned in another direction, heading towards the top of the opposite mountain

When he reached the top of the low mountain, he finally found the owner of the footprints, who looked like a little boy, although Lu Yifan also looked like a little boy, it did not prevent him from feeling that the other party was small.

The little boy held a long wooden plank and slid down the top of the mountain happily, just like Lu Yifan's childhood in his previous life.

The little boy's cheeks were flushed with cold, and a pair of fleshy hands held the wooden plank, and he looked up and asked, "Who are you?"

Lu Yifan saw at a glance that there was a small village under Sheephorn Mountain, surrounded by mountains, although the mountain was not high, it was indeed surrounded.

Farther out, it was finally no longer all plains, with hills and ravines at times, and if you looked closely, you could see trampled paths, with some snow cleared from above, leading from the other side of the village into the distance.

Seeing this, he naturally knew that the child was just playing here, so he pointed in the direction he had come, and said, "My friends and I have been lost, and I have come here in a lost way! Now that I am thirsty and hungry, can you take me to your house to ask for some food and drink?"

The little man hesitated for a moment, and saw that although the other party was holding a sword, he was about the same age, and his face was not vicious, so he let down his guard and said, "Then you come with me, I will ask A-Niang!"

"Thank you, thank you!"

The two soon came to the village, and the little boy walked closer to the edge and stopped, stretched out his hand to push open the door of the fence wall, and shouted as he entered: "Auntie, there is a brother from outside who wants to come and ask for some food and tea, do you want him to come in?"

The fence yard looks very simple, there should be vegetable patches on both sides of the yard, but it is flooded by snow, and I can't see anything, behind the vegetable patch are three ordinary houses and a small shanty, a very ordinary and simple family!

In one of the houses, a faint white smoke rose from the chimney, and the door of the room was pushed open, and a woman in her early thirties walked out, wiping the water stains from her hands onto her apron.

From Lu Yifan's adult eyes, the woman's face is good, but her dress is too ordinary, and due to her perennial work and lack of maintenance, although she is not very old, there are already some fine wrinkles at the corners of her eyes.

"Auntie, my elders and I got lost in the blizzard last night, and we couldn't find a place to go for a while, can you allow me to come in and ask for some hot tea and food?" Lu Yifan very honestly pretended to be what he should show at his age, and did not enter the door, but stood two steps away from the open fence door and said.

He wasn't sure if the people here cared about etiquette, and if he behaved too unreasonably and was driven away by her, Lu Yifan believed that the entire village would never accept him.

"Then come in!"

The woman looked at Lu Yifan carefully, looking at his clothes, he was extremely thin, and he was not very old, although he was holding a sword, he was not fierce, he was saying that it was normal for people from outside the mountain to come to a snowy land with no one, and it was normal to hold a sword, so she let Lu Yifan enter the door.

"Thank you, thank you!"

The woman looked a little reserved, probably because she rarely saw outsiders, so she just heard her say, "There is still some food hot in the jar, I'll bring it to you!"

Lu Yifan looked at the jar that was almost the size of his head, the lid was opened, and a fragrance wafted out, but the things in it couldn't be distinguished by him.

The green vegetables mixed with the meat are mixed with the rice, and the light yellow soup completely exudes their fragrance, so I scoop out two spoonfuls with a spoon and pour them into the bowl, only to see that the rice is mixed with boiled green vegetables and meat slices, and the appearance can be described as quite miserable.

"Hehe, his father likes to eat the hot rice I cook the most, so I keep some in the jar every day, and he can eat it hot when he comes back!" She didn't notice Lu Yifan's eyes.

"Thank you very much!"

The food is put into the bowl, although the appearance is really sad, but the smell is really fragrant, and this method is still the other party's best, what else can you say?

Lu Yifan picked up the small spoon, scooped half a spoonful, kept his facial expression unchanged, endured the psychology of the diaphragm, sent half a spoonful of 'ugly' food to his mouth, and then chewed and swallowed!

Then comes the second and third scoops!

"It smells so good!"

A bowl at the bottom, Lu Yifan didn't say a word, threw the spoon, held the jar with both hands and poured it into his bowl, and the little boy next to him swallowed his saliva but didn't know what to do.
