Volume 1 The Rain of Jianyi Chapter 57 Heron Song
In the forty-third year of the Qianyuan Dynasty, June 15, the day of Luming, it is appropriate to marry, sacrifice, pray for blessings, and ask for heirs.
The originally very peaceful small town of Jianyi is unexpectedly busy at the moment, and all parts of the city are busy, and people from nearby towns and villages who come to the city to buy family banquets are crowded in this small city, which is a bit festive.
Heron Song Day is the traditional day of planting, after this day, all over Huainan Province farming will start summer planting, the temperature in the south of the Huai River rises, today after the north of the Huai River heron birds will fly to the south of the Huai River, so it is named "Heron Song Day".
This day is also a suitable day to start a new farming, even the high Huainan Marquis has to practice farming on this day, in order to show the importance of agriculture. Of course, today's day is only applicable to Huainan Province, the area of the Great Qin Kingdom is vast, and the planting dates vary throughout the country.
Although there are no peasant households in the small town of Jianyi, the tradition of each family having to feast on this festival has been preserved, Xiong Yi, as a county official, is taking several officials of the yamen to set up a venue for tonight's meeting on the side of the wharf.
Su Jie is naturally among them.
He is active by nature and likes to be lively, so he is naturally relatively happy about this annual planting gathering, as early as a few days ago, it happened that Su Qiujing was also half of the government personnel, so he knew the location of this gathering early.
In the depths of Tuifan Street is in the courtyard, under the camphor tree sits cross-legged a young man who looks no more than twelve or thirteen years old, the young man's eyebrows are extremely good-looking, but at this time his eyes are closed, his forehead is oozing a little beads of sweat, and his hands are trembling slightly.
Today's weather in the town is exceptionally good, only a breeze, and the amplitude of the camphor tree swinging is much smaller, it stands to reason that this should be a quiet environment, but if you listen carefully, the air is actually mixed with the sound of wind and thunder!
If you listen carefully, the sound of wind and thunder actually comes from the young man's body!
"Drink!"
The young man snorted, and a powerful suction force came out of his abdomen, and emitted a strange pale white light, and the vitality in the air in the small courtyard was drunk by this suction, and the light became a little stronger, and with the young man's low drink, the light turned into an ancient peach blossom rune, spreading towards the abdomen in a spider web.
But it didn't take long for the sigil to dim again.
"Still can't you?" Ah Xiao stood up and muttered to himself.
"It seems that there is still no hurry. His two furrowed moon brows slowly stretched.
Since he came back last time, the peach blossom tree in his secret realm has grown more and more lush, and with it, his secret realm has become more and more stable, which should be a good thing, but since he woke up last time, this secret realm of life can no longer be open to himself, and after a long time, his vitality cultivation has still not progressed.
"I can't rush when I say this. A voice came from Ah Xiao's secret realm.
"That peach blossom tree should be planted from the seed on your bracelet, with it in your secret realm, the more you absorb your vitality, the more stable your secret realm can be. Of course, after your life has been reopened, you will naturally have to reopen it again. ”
The origin of this bracelet obtained from Yushan is extremely mysterious, there are a total of five big red beads on it, and the rest are small beads, the color of one of the five big red beads at this time has dimmed, Ah Xiao asked Sui Han, Sui Han doesn't know what the effect is, judging from the peach tree, Sui Han can only simply judge it to be a bracelet composed of some life seeds.
The speaker was naturally Sui Han, who was lazily lying on the peach blossom tree at this time, "So, you are now a monk who has not opened up a life level, and at most you can use some heaven and earth vitality." ”
"Then when will I be able to reopen my life?" said Ah Xiao frowned.
Sui Han picked a peach on the peach tree at random, took a bite, sighed that it was so sweet, and then said:
"Who knows, this matter depends on yourself, your life pass has actually been opened up, you only need to pierce the barrier, and with this peach tree, when you return to the fate realm, you will not be an ordinary life pass monk. ”
The peach tree fruit is the peach tree refining the vitality of the secret realm of Ah Xiao's life, although the amount of vitality is not very much, but it is very suitable for the appetite of the cold.
"Actually, there is another way. He stopped nibbling on a peach and said suddenly.
"Huh?"
"Do you remember the switch pill that Jiang Laosi gave you back then?"
"Are you saying that thing can help me break this barrier?" Ah Xiao asked, but then he reacted and wondered, "Then do you know why you didn't say it earlier? Also, where can I get this thing?"
"I have to answer the questions one by one. ”
Sui Han clapped his hands and shook off the peach residue on his hand, "First of all, the reason why I didn't say it earlier is because you didn't ask me, and your life level was not completely stable earlier, and using the switch pill will cause the life level that is not yet stable to be broken directly, which is why I asked you to stabilize it first." ”
"Secondly, although this kind of thing is not a rare treasure, it is not available in such a small place, at least you have to go to Yi'an County, and the six gates in the county or the military headquarters of the Wuwei Army may be able to get it. ”
Ah Xiao was stunned, he didn't expect that the switch pill given to him by his grandfather and Jiang Laosi before would be so precious.
He naturally knew that the six gates and the Wuwei Army were the official forces set up by the imperial court all over the country, and the six gates were mainly used to maintain law and order in the county and hunt down the offenders, among which their heads were also divided into hierarchies, but the specific division A Xiao did not know.
The six doors alone are the behemoths in Ah Xiao's eyes, but the Wuwei Army in this county is more powerful than the six gates, the Wuwei Army is an armed force in a territory, mainly composed of warriors and forging people, they are mainly responsible for the security of the county, in terms of power, it is a cut above the six gates.
"Bang Bang!"
"Open the door, Ah Xiao! It's me!"
A rough voice from the pitch change period peculiar to a teenager came from outside.
Ah Xiao laughed when he heard this voice, he naturally knew who was coming, except for Su Jie, who was shouting, who would have such a loud voice?
As soon as the door opened, a sturdy figure rushed in, a few years have passed, Su Jie has grown more and more robust under his father's request to exercise, and he is almost an adult man, half a head longer than A Xiao, different from A Xiao's handsomeness, Su Jie's body is full of wildness, the corners of his face are becoming more and more resolute, and his skin, which was originally normal, has also turned into a faint wheat color under the wild all day long.
"I said, why are you closing the door in this weather?" Su Jie walked to the well, pulled up a bucket of water from the bottom of the well as if no one was around, picked up the water scoop and poured it into his stomach, and then snorted comfortably slowly, "Cool~"
"Aren't you afraid that someone like you will rush in and scare me?"
"By the way, is this year's meeting venue set up?" asked Ah Xiao.
"It just so happens that I came to you for this matter. ”
Su Jie scratched his head and said, "Today's rally is going to be held at the wharf, and a lot of melons and fruits will be used for the rally and sacrifice at night! I came from there, and Uncle Xiong said that he wanted me to help buy a batch of melons and fruits, so didn't I come to you for a favor?"
On weekdays, these things are the main book of the county government, and the old man of the Li family prepares it, but this year, the old man was temporarily taken by his son, who is also the chief bookkeeper in the county, to spend this year's opening ceremony in the county, and this errand is also idle.
Ah Xiao packed up the things in the courtyard, locked the door, and went out with Su Jie.
In order to save money, Xiong Yi will never buy them in the small town, because it is too expensive, and the dealers take the opportunity to raise the price fiercely, in Xiong Yi's hometown dialect, it is "really shameless, really shameless!"
Ah Xiao didn't understand what he said too much, but he could understand Xiong Ye's dissatisfaction with the high price, so he usually went to the orchard in Hexi to buy it directly at a low price.
To go to Hexi, naturally you have to go to the dock to rent a boat first, and it can't be too small, Su Jie naturally booked the boat early, and chose the fishing family, and it is not a problem to pull a boatload of melons and fruits at a time.
