The distant mountains are picturesque, and the clouds are unrestrained. Ghost Valley is actually a place as beautiful as a fairyland! I heard the name "Ghost Valley" before, and Gao Yanli said that she was a swordsman and Mrs. Xu was proficient in Qimen Dunjia, I thought this would be a maze valley full of dangers.

Unexpectedly, it was actually a quiet and elegant idyllic landscape, and behind the patchwork of fields was a small bamboo house.

The outside of the bamboo house is surrounded by a bamboo hedge, on which dried vines are hung, and there are fruits hanging on the trees outside the courtyard, but the leaves are gone. The winter countryside has a unique beauty.

Adjacent to the bamboo forest is a clear lotus pond, in which schools of fish, withered lotus leaves and lotus canopies stretch out towards the sky like the thin feet of birds.

The path is paved with stone slabs, just enough for two horses to walk side by side. The fox who had been sleeping deeply just now was illuminated by the bright sky, opened his eyes and tilted his head curiously to look around.

"Want to see it?" I rubbed its head vigorously, and the little guy blinked at my watery eyes.

I couldn't help but purse my lips and smile when I saw it, and Gao Yanli also looked over here: "At this time, Master and Master should go to Senior Sister's house to pickle vegetables." There is no one around the bamboo house, as long as you don't run into the formation, you should be fine. ”

When Xiaolong heard this, he looked at me even more pitifully.

"Go ahead, but don't forget the reminder. Don't just go to the formation. I took away the hand that was rubbing the dragon's head and patted it lightly on the back. The little one's eyes lit up instantly, and he swooped down and disappeared into the grassy fields.

Gao Yanli really knew his master and his wife very well, and when we walked into the bamboo house, there was really no half of a figure except for a young man with clear eyebrows lying on the bed.

It's really a big-hearted master and a master...... I subconsciously walked towards the bed: "Your master and sister will personally pickle the dishes they eat in winter every year?"

"Well, the two of them don't have much to do. Relying on these things to pass the time, now should be the time to turn the dishes, and I went to help. Gao gradually left the familiar looking for the tea bowl, and went to the back to boil water to make tea.

I looked at the man on the bed, he seemed to be sleeping in a sweet dream, his eyebrows were like a sword, and the bridge of his nose was hanging high, concentrating the appearance advantages of Uncle Gaochang and Aunt Li.

He slept peacefully, as if he would open his eyes and smile at me in the next moment. Even if you fall asleep, your eyebrows and eyes are full of righteousness.

Sure enough, he was born to be a swordsman, like a Lingyun pine tree standing between heaven and earth. Because of the long period of sleep, his face was very pale, and his lips were bloodless.

Subconsciously, I picked up his hand and tested his pulse, the beating was strong and strong, and it was very healthy.

"Shallow, you ......" suddenly heard behind him, and he stood there with a teapot and stared blankly at the hand I was holding. A more natural crimson appeared on his face.

I immediately realized that the person I was holding was actually his "real body", and it was a little embarrassing at the moment, but I adjusted in an instant.

"I'm just going to take your pulse and see if you're healthy. Nothing else...... Is this, you?" I quickly let go of the hand and explained, gesturing to the young man lying on the bed.

Gao Yanli on the opposite side coughed lightly and nodded, and suddenly came back to his senses and began to pour tea: "It's me, I've been asleep for almost two years." If it weren't for that male fish, I'm afraid there would be no me now. ”

"You drink some tea first, and I'll cook later. Hungry, aren't you?" he pushed the tea bowl towards me, "This is the salty tea that my master and my mother invented together, it can relieve hunger, but I don't know if you are used to eating it." ”

I went over and picked up a cup, and it tasted a lot like porridge.

"What's in this?" I took a sip curiously, not to mention, although it tasted weird, it was quite interesting. Salty and light, the most prominent is umami, this is tea, this is a soup!

Gao gradually tilted his head, as if he was thinking carefully: "I don't know, I only know that the master and the master made it, and I didn't ask what was released." ”

"It's delicious. I nodded and raised my eyebrows.

Soon, Gao Yuanli fried three dishes and boiled a soup to serve, the soup was hollyhock soup, and the dishes were also refreshing and easy to eat. Stir-fried lotus root slices, stir-fried smoked pork, and a small wild vegetable that seems to be fateless.

In winter, wild vegetables are one of the most vigorous in the fields.

"The first time I saw you cook, not only did you look good, but it also tasted good. "I put a chopstick lotus root sliced in my mouth and tried other dishes. It's a lot better than doing it myself.

Gao Yanli was a little embarrassed to be praised by me, and he also touched his nose from me: "My master said that everything must be self-reliant. Since I entered the Ghost Valley, Master has built this bamboo house for me, and I live by myself, except for learning martial arts, I live by myself. ”

"No wonder your brother's cooking is delicious. I scooped another bowl of soup, "This lotus root is from the lotus pond just now?"

Gao Yanli nodded: "Master and sister never go out to buy vegetables, sister and sister also raise silkworms, grow linen, weave cloth and tailor clothes, except for tasks and buy necessities that can't be made, people in Guigu will not go out." ”

"Not strictly forbidden?" I blinked.

"There are no rules like that in Guigu. Gao Yanli also served himself a bowl of soup, and just as I was about to praise them for their good self-control, he suddenly said: "Guigu has been like this since its establishment, except for the necessary marriage and apprenticeship, no one has ever come in. ”

This is somewhat similar to Wolong Valley, I drank the hollyhock soup, and the warmth went straight to the bottom of my heart.

"As for the ordinary people in the valley, they do not go out except for the necessary training and purchases. When we reach a certain age, Master will let us go out and travel the world to learn more things. When Gao Yanli talked about Mrs. Xu, his eyes always shone with dazzling light.

He must have liked it very much, and he loved his master very much.

"That you. I pointed to the man lying on the bed, "Have you been taken care of by Senior Xu and your senior brother-in-law for more than a year in a coma?" Could it be that they didn't think about finding a way to wake him up?

Or do you think that as long as you can keep occupying the fox's body, even if you stay asleep, it's okay?

Needless to say, it should be the latter. Thinking of this, I suddenly felt that these refreshing delicacies tasted the same as chewing wax, Gao Yanli was a disciple of Mrs. Xu, and he believed in Mrs. Xu.

But I can't do it......

I warned myself several times in my heart before putting down the empty bowl and saying, "After eating, I want to see the incense refining stove." ”

"I think the same way, it's best to practice the Drunken Soul Incense as soon as possible. Gao gradually left the bowl as well.
