Chapter 143: Back Mountain
As soon as the sky was slightly bright, many people woke up. www.biquge.info Older people generally don't sleep too long, even if they are drunk, they wake up earlier than others.
The fire marten was also awakened, and saw Lu Zixiu looking at the sky suspiciously, and its little head couldn't understand why Lu Zixiu kept looking at the starry sky.
At the head of the village, by the spring water pool brought by bamboo from the back mountain, many people were washing their faces at this time, and from time to time they were making trouble, and gradually more and more people got up and became more and more lively.
The little children in the village are also chirping incessantly, as if urging people to get up.
The women also got up one by one, washed up and came to Lu Zixiu's house, cleaned up the leftover cups from last night, and then re-lit the fire and made breakfast for everyone.
Lu Zixiu also went to wash his face, the freshness of the early morning style made him feel much better, and after greeting everyone, he walked towards the back mountain alone.
At this time, it was summer, the flowers were fragrant, the fruits were hanging, and the morning breeze was howling, blowing Lu Zixiu's hair to fly, and his clothes were hunting, blowing away all Lu Zixiu's sleepiness.
The mountain behind it is large, but not high, like a huge burial bag, and the mountain is full of various fruit trees and bamboos that have been cultivated in the village for countless years, as well as many tall birch trees.
In the middle of the back mountain is a very large tree, which is not much better than the giant tree in the depths of Heizi Mountain, standing in the center and looking out: one side is verdant and green, and the other side is purple and red, and the morning mist rises, it is even more like a dream, like a fairyland.
The dew wet Lu Zixiu's shoes, but it didn't feel cold, but it was refreshing.
The mink was so happy with the calls of countless birds of all kinds that it jumped up and down from time to time, caught one, and flew a flock of birds, listening to the frightened cries of the birds, and it released the birds again.
When he saw a butterfly, he also caught it and showed it to Lu Zixiu, it was like a playful child who kept laughing among the flowers.
I don't know how long it took, Yang Zijie and Yang Hao came over, and Lu Zixiu called the little guy home.
"Zixiu, why did you come here, this mountain has existed for countless years, it is called Xinling, but I don't know why it is called Xinling, listen to the old generation, don't look high on this mountain, but it is very magical, every winter snows, there will be no snow on the top of this mountain." Yang Hao said.
"Yes, I remember when I was a child, when it was very cold, when I ran here, it wouldn't be cold, and I was so good." Deng Qin said.
"Countless years ago, a big family occupied this place, thinking that there was a peerless treasure in it, so they invited many people to dig up this mountain, but no matter how many people they had, they couldn't dig it all, you dig him and he will grow, anyway, it's always like this!" Dunley also spoke of the legend here.
"I also heard that the big family that occupied this place died one by one in the end, and no one dared to occupy this place after that!" Yang Hao said with a smile.
"Then why do anyone dare to live here?" A thought flashed in Lu Zixiu's mind, and he didn't grasp anything.
"I heard that our ancestors have lived here since the beginning of Xinling, and they say that they are guarding this mountain, but no one can tell why they are staying here." Yang Zijie climbed the huge tree in the middle, picked a leaf and ate it.
"We don't know this tree, anyway, if anyone in the village is sick, they will use this leaf to boil water and drink, and it will be fine in a short time, you taste it, it's delicious." Dunley climbed up and took a handful down.
Lu Zixiu took over the leaves, which were reddish-green, with three forks, like the palm of a human hand, and the size was about the same, and there was a faint sweet taste when chewed, and there was a hint of coolness flowing through the body along the meridians.
Suddenly, Lu Zixiu's dantian had a slight reaction, but at this moment, he just felt so comfortable.
"It's so cool, if you eat some of this leaf at noon, it's not afraid of the sun!" Lu Zixiu admired.
"Does it feel cool? Isn't it just a light sweet taste? The four of them asked together.
The taste they ate was different from Lu Zixiu's, although they were a little strange, but they didn't take it to heart.
"Zijie, you pick some more and see if the taste of this leaf has changed." Dunley said to Yang Zijie, who had not yet fallen from the tree.
"It still smells like this!" When a few people tasted it, it was still the same, but when Lu Zixiu ate, there was still a cool smell.
"Did we eat too much before, and we can only taste this flavor?" Yang Zijie said.
"It may be so, Zi Xiu has never eaten it, he will only feel this way when he eats it for the first time, and he will definitely be the same as us in the future, only feeling a light sweetness!" The other three all thought so.
Lu Zixiu didn't speak, just looked at this huge tree seriously, its branches are divided into many layers, the tree is probably hundreds of meters from the ground, and the bottom two layers of branches are spread out, it is a forest!
With dark gray trunks and reddish-green leaves, many small animals live on this tree, and their nests can be found everywhere, but they do not interfere with each other, and live together in harmony.
The mink also learned from them, picked a few leaves, chewed them a few times and spit them out, and fanned his mouth with his little paws, looking so bitter and spicy!
Several people burst into laughter.
"It's not early, they're already doing things, breakfast should be ready, let's go back!" Yang Hao said.
Lu Zixiu let go of the doubts in his heart, so he had to go down the mountain together, at the foot of the mountain, a group of people were priying, lifting, and shouting, and there were still laughs coming out.
The people who carried the stones were in groups of two, one bamboo pole and two ropes made of red vines on the mountain, one after the other, and some of them talked and laughed and carried back to the village.
With the voice of the people who came around: Breakfast! One by one, everyone quickened their pace, and those who pry the stone also carried a stone to the village.
In front of Lu Zixiu's house, on more than a dozen stoves, a group of aunts and sisters-in-law were preparing to serve the dishes, and those big girls and little daughters-in-law were preparing dishes and chopsticks on the side.
A jar of fruit wine has long been moved to the side, bowls full of fruity wine, and from time to time there are a few eight or nine-year-old children using chopsticks to light wine and steal wine to 'eat'.
Seeing this situation, Lu Zixiu and the others were immediately embarrassed, and they didn't do anything this morning!
As the saying goes: a bowl of morning wine is majestic all day!
Of course, no one drinks more in the morning, after all, they still have to earn Nebula Coins, who will have trouble with money?
In less than half an hour, everyone was full, and then around the wall, which was already more than one meter high, they commented from time to time, "This side should be built with a 'male' point, and that side should be a little more 'holy', etc."
Lu Zixiu didn't understand them, but they also knew that these people were talking about how to build this wall to meet the requirements.
At this time, a huge figure appeared in the sky, with a long roar, and the lark appeared in everyone's sight, hovering over the village, slowly landing at the entrance of the village, and throwing down a prey.
He shouted happily at Lu Zixiu, and then soared into the sky, circling three times over the village before flying into the distance.
The people of Xinling Village saw this lark for the second time to send prey, but they were still shocked in their hearts, although Feng Village's people heard about wearing larks yesterday, they were still shocked when they saw it today.
Many children were scared and cried, and adults were also nervous, knowing that this lark would not hurt themselves, but its huge body and fierce aura still made them feel afraid.
Countless people speculated, and Feng Fu thought that it was because the people of the Feng family were here that they would send prey to them wearing Yunnan Sparrows, but they didn't know that it was thanking Lu Zixiu for giving Dan his grace.
At the entrance of the village, a huge plum blossom muntjac was dying on the ground, its eyes staring fiercely at everyone, and the fire marten pounced on it with a squeak, biting on the neck of the plum blossom muntjac, and a bloody sword rushed out!
The fire mark screamed and left quickly, it originally wanted to drink the blood of the plum blossom muntjac, that knows, its bite is not big, and this mouth is just on the artery of the plum blossom muntjac, so the blood comes out very quickly, almost hurting the fire mink.
The fire marten pounced again, and after a while, several blood swords on the body of the plum blossom muntjac soared, and its breath became weaker and weaker.
After a while, the blood came out much more slowly, and the mink climbed up happily and drank it 'coo', for it had eaten well in the morning, and this time it had a round belly.
When the people in the village found a pole and were about to lift the plum blossom muntjac, Lu Zixiu stepped forward, grabbed the plum blossom muntjac and shook it on his back, and in the stunned eyes of everyone, put the plum blossom muntjac by the spring pool!
Feng Fu secretly compared, he knew that he could also carry this plum blossom muntjac, but it was definitely not as casual as Lu Zixiu, this is how to lift weights!
He now has to admire Lu Zixiu, much stronger than those so-called princes and grandsons, this is the real powerhouse, Feng Fu looked at Lu Zixiu with a gaze that became respectful.
The village left a few veterans to deal with the plum muntjac, while the others continued to build and lift, and pry, while the women went to the river to cut the artemisia grass, each doing their own thing in an orderly manner.
There are more than a dozen people as big as Lu Zixiu, and they are specially picking a kind of white mud dug up in the back mountain, and they are all very busy.
Feng Ling'er was holding the fire marten that couldn't walk, and Li Mengshu and Li Mengshu were pointing at Lu Zixiu and them, and from time to time commented on who was lazy and who was the fastest.
They were followed by twenty or thirty children from two villages, plus a lot of snacks were sent from Chuyun City, which made Feng Ling'er their king.
The people who specialize in cooking are preparing for noon one by one, but fortunately, the dry branches here have a kind of grease, which is very easy to burn, and it can be burned for a long time without any smoke.
A lot of people is a lot of power, so many people work together to build this house, the speed is still very fast, before noon, it has been built to more than two meters high.
"Drink a bowl of wine, work hard, and strive to build it before eating lunch!" Yang Cheng shouted.
Suddenly, everyone returned to the table, picked up the jar and poured themselves a bowl of wine, drank it all in one gulp, and then quickly got to work.
The house here is generally one floor is enough, with birch rafters, then covered with birch boards, covered with artemisia grass, pressed with bamboo, and finally suffocated with birch nails, even if it is done!
