In the afternoon, the wind and snow had long since stopped, and after everyone left, everything was as usual.

It was still the quaint stone table, Xu Huai'an sat quietly on the stool, holding a book in both hands, reading intently, and next to it was a fragrant tea that was spitting hot steam, and a beautiful picture scroll slowly unfolded.

A stone table, a book, a young student who studied intently, that's all.

Unconsciously, the sun moved quietly until the sun set, when a red light reflected on Xu Huai's face, he knew that he was just waking up.

"The ancients said that there was no Jiazi in the mountains, and they had been sitting for hundreds of years, and now it seems that it is not unreasonable, just like this, an afternoon will pass. ”

Xu Huai stood up and smiled.

"It's not too early, it's time to cook for the girl. ”

Xu Huai walked to the vegetable garden behind the house, because this house occupies a very large area, so for convenience, Xu Huai set up the vegetable garden at the back of the house, so that he can eat the freshest vegetables.

The vegetable garden is the size of an acre of land, one side leans against the cliff, and the other side is steep, leaving only two sides for people to pass by.

Under the cover of heavy snow, there are still seven or eight kinds of winter vegetables planted in the garden, and the green and quiet area is very strong.

I picked a few winter radishes from the vegetable garden, washed them, removed the broken leaves, and picked a few herbs from the medicine field at the entrance and mixed them with winter radish, and stirred well.

I scraped a few slices of bacon with a knife from the wooden beam of the kitchen, put them on a cutting board, and cut them into evenly thick strips.

Start a fire, add oil, add wood and start cooking over a fire.

The flame slowly grows stronger, grilling the bottom of the pot, the oil on the pot is also slowly cooking, splashing, put the meat strips in the pot, mix well with a spoon, and then slowly pour in the east radish and herbs.

After a while, the dish is cooked after five minutes.

"Xiaoxian, come out to eat!"

Xu Huai had a coarse cloth apron wrapped around his waist, and with a dish in his hand, he walked into the room and shouted.

"Brother, wait a while, it's almost over, just wait for me for a while. ”

The little girl was obviously seeing the wonderful place, and she refused to leave after eating, staring at the TV screen with big eyes, Xu Huai urged several times, but there was no movement.

"Xiaoxian, hurry up and come out to eat!!"

Xu Huai finally took out his power as an elder brother, his face became serious, and when he walked into the room, he pressed the off button of the TV.

"Ah, bad brother, turn off my TV, I'm about to finish it!!" the little girl suddenly curled up and muttered. He looked very unhappy.

"Watching TV, you don't want to eat, right? Okay, tomorrow you can watch TV at home, I'll go down the mountain alone, but I won't take you. The corners of Xu Huai's mouth curled, turned around and walked out.

"I'll eat, I'll eat, brother, you mean what you say, you must take me down the mountain tomorrow, don't be like last time, I don't know when I'm going to go, you and Dabai have already returned." The little girl snorted and said, complaining to Xu Huai about the last time.

The two siblings came to the living room and began to eat, while Da Bai ate happily under the table.

There were no words on the table, and the two of them and a dog ate slowly.

Eat silently, sleep silently, the Xu family's family rules have always been strict, even if there are only two blood relatives left in this generation, it is still the case.

More than three years ago, when the little girl was born, she suddenly encountered misfortune and encountered prenatal hemorrhage, Xu Huai and the girl's mother failed to survive and passed away.

The old man had been on the battlefield in his early years, and he had already suffered trauma on his body, because of the departure of his daughter-in-law, he was grief-stricken, and he persevered for less than a year, and he also died, leaving only Xu Huai, who was half a man, and Xiaoxian, who had just given birth.

Xu Huai can be said to be both a father and a mother, single-handedly pulling the little girl up, and he bears the hardships and hardships he has endured alone.

"Xiaoxian, go back to your room to rest after eating, and rest early. ”

After the meal, Xu Huai sat on the stone table in front of the hall, pinching the nameless gesture in his hand, his body tilted and shook slightly, and it seemed to have a certain frequency, which looked very harmonious.

After a while, the wind picked up, and the wind became stronger and stronger, as if it were attracting all the wind around it.

A strange scene appeared, the wind in the sky carried countless leaves, swept up, and surrounded Xu Huai, who was sitting cross-legged on the stool, making a circular motion unusually, faster and faster.

The wind continued, Xu Huai's robe was flying, and in the medicine field on the side of the courtyard, the strong herbs were also blown by the wind and bent over, but even so, Xu Huai, who was in the center of the storm, was as immobile as a rock.

"Woohoo, woohoo!"

Dabai, who had been sitting at the door just now, suddenly stood up, staring at the gate with his eyes staring, his voice roared, and he was very anxious.

And Xu Huai in the wind seemed to be unconscious, still pinching strange and unknown hands, his body trembled slightly according to a certain frequency, and vaguely, between the flying leaves, he saw that Xu Huai's head had two black and white air masses, constantly centered on Xu Huai, rotating rapidly.

In the boundless wind, tumbling and changing, pulling out different shapes, it is really very strange.

The wind was stronger, and the big white standing at the door became more anxious, and the sound of barking became louder and louder, and the timbre of the roar did not look like that of a dog at all.

Suddenly, the entire mountain fell silent, and even the entire Kunlun Mountain seemed to fall into a standstill, and a great power approached from afar.

The next moment, a three-meter-long, snow-white, black-spotted tiger quietly came to the door, it bowed its head slightly, and made a very surprising movement.

Then he stepped forward, came to the closed door, and put his head against the door, and made a thumping sound, as if it were a visit between people, and came to the door of the house and knocked on it.

A fierce beast with such wisdom that if anyone could witness this scene, they would definitely be surprised, and even exclaim, "Youkai!!"

"Come in!"

Xu Huai seemed to have already felt that this colorful tiger would come.

"Roar!"

After hearing the voice, the colorful tiger made a sound, which seemed to respond to Xu Huai, and then, he opened the gate with his stout head and slowly paced into the courtyard.

"Old friend, what's going on?

As the king of beasts, in this Kunlun Mountain, what else can hurt you like this?"

Xu Huai opened his eyes and looked at the colorful tiger, and saw that the colorful tiger's body, one in the east and one in the west, had several places, as if it was a blood mark strangled by a rope, even with its outstanding body, the wound was bleeding constantly.

As early as a few years ago, Xu Huai's old man picked up the injured tiger in the mountains, and the old man thought that all things have spirits, so he simply brought it back for treatment.

In the process of treatment, most of them were Xu Huai himself, who drugged the seriously injured colorful tiger, and he came and went, and he also had some feelings.

In the end, after the colorful tiger was injured, the old man let it retreat to the mountains and forests, and let it continue to be its king of beasts in the mountains and forests.

"Roar, roar!"

The colorful tiger raised his head and shouted, as if he was talking to Xu Huai about something.

It's a pity that Xu Huai doesn't understand the language of beasts, and he doesn't know what the colorful tiger in front of him is talking about.
