It was late at night, and Qiu Sheng and Xia Sheng left on the raft first.

Lin Chun looked at the cuckoo expectantly, "Would you like to play for a while?" ”

The cuckoo looked at the young man's longing eyes and nodded slightly.

Such a night, such a lake, holding a raft to float quietly on the vast water, is the most suitable for lovers to meet and stay together. She is very involved with him, and she is very willing to stay with him at such a moment; For the sake of the future, she should also accompany him.

However, at the moment, they are not lovers.

In front of her, Lin Chun couldn't say anything about love;

In front of him, it is impossible for the cuckoo to say love words.

So, they still talk about the beauty and magic of this valley, plan and arrange for the future, how to build a house, how to get a site, etc.

The cuckoo said, "Don't be too extravagant. ”

Lin Chun looked at her puzzled, not understanding what she meant.

The cuckoo cast his eyes on the water, watching the wisps of light smoke ripple and flow, and heard the whispering of a bird or two near the shore, and his expression was very fascinated.

After a while, she retracted her gaze, looked at him and chanted softly: "Between heaven and earth, everything has its own owner, and it is not mine, although I can't take anything." But the breeze on the river, and the bright moon in the mountains, the sound of the ear, the color of the eye, the inexhaustible, is the endless hiding of the Creator, and I am suitable for the Son. ”

Lin Chun was stunned.

He also said softly, "Got it." Even the royal kingdom has changed, not to mention us. This is what we discovered first, and that is our blessing; How long you stay depends on the blessings of your children and grandchildren. It would have been nice to furnish comfortably. It's too good to be coveted and can't be retained. ”

The cuckoo said, "That's it. Stay first. If you haven't come yet, you're busy building houses. A lot of time and effort have been wasted, not to mention, people are tired. It's better to take it slowly. ”

Lin Chun thought for a while and said, "Then be simpler, let's build a wooden house." ”

The cuckoo nodded and said, "There are few mountains and rocks here, unlike Quanshui Village." ”

Lin Chun said: "You can burn bricks." Let the second brother go back to learn how to burn the kiln, as well as rice milling and oil extraction, all of them have to learn. It's a lot of work. ”

……

Du Juan was a little absent-minded as he spoke, and remembered Li Dun again.

I really can't help it, it's really the scene in front of her that easily reminds her of the past in her heart--the past is indestructible-when she and he found Quanshui Village. The anticipation and happiness are even greater than what is in front of you!

Thinking blankly, the torch burned out for a while, and it was about to be extinguished.

Lin Chun hurriedly took out another pine oil torch from behind him, and lit it with the remaining flames, and a large cloud of light lit up on the lake again, illuminating the two hazy figures on the raft, which looked like an ink painting from a distance.

The cuckoo woke up and laughed in a low voice: "You're all ready, don't you plan to sleep?" ”

In the stillness of the night. The young man's voice was low and soft, and he was a little embarrassed: "Cuckoo, are you tired?" I really want to talk to you. If you don't want to say it, you can just keep it quiet. You listen. There are voices in the mountains, and there are voices in the water. In such a quiet night, people's hearts are also quiet. I can hear things that I can't hear during the day: the mountains and the water are chatting, and I talk very lightly......"

In such an environment and at night. His senses were extraordinarily acute.

He paints an artistic conception that cannot be seen and can only be felt by the heart.

The cuckoo was infected by his rich imagination and listened quietly. There were all kinds of sounds in my ears: the whispering of the wind through the treetops, the sound of tinkling water from nowhere, the long and short breathing of birds in the aquatic plants on the shore, and the cry of a lone wolf in the distant depths of the forest...... With only the sound, the night unfolded to her a vivid picture of the depths of the mountains.

She listened quietly, sinking into a dreamlike realm.

When I didn't know where I was, someone whispered in my ear, "Cuckoo!" ”

"Hmm!"

She replied casually, regardless of who called her.

"I hear your heart beat!"

"I hear your heartbeat too!"

"I hear you breathing!"

"Really? I didn't even catch my breath. ”

"Well, I can smell you too. What does it smell like? ”

The cuckoo was about to answer, when suddenly there was a "bang" on the side of the raft, and a fish jumped out of the water.

"They don't sleep?"

The cuckoo couldn't help but laugh.

And so the tranquility was shattered.

"Go back to sleep, I'm sleepy."

Cuckoo said, not answering any more questions about the scent on her body.

She was too embarrassed to say it.

She didn't wipe anything, nor did she bring a sachet made of dried flowers, the fragrance that Lin Chun smelled was probably a girl's unique scent, how could she be embarrassed to tell him?

Lin Chun heard her say that she was sleepy, so she didn't ask anymore, and hurriedly got up to support the penny, and the raft drifted towards the island. In front of and behind them, the fog thickened, and the raft seemed to float from a sea of clouds.

Du Juan suddenly remembered something and asked how his works were selling in Yuanmengzhai.

Lin Chun smiled and said, "Supply exceeds demand", especially the dressing box, because of its exquisite setting and exquisite carving, it has become a popular item favored by the mansions of wealthy officials.

"I didn't have time to do a lot, but I didn't know that things became scarce and expensive, and each piece was only sold for ten taels of silver, but then it rose to twenty taels and fifty taels of silver, and then someone sold a hundred taels of silver. I really don't have time to do it, and I don't want to lose my reputation because of the high bid, so I have to push it all. ”

The cuckoo smiled: "You are really famous." But you dare to offend them? ”

Lin Chun said that he had indeed caused a lot of trouble, and those people had their backgrounds. Especially the things he made can't be imitated by other craftsmen, even if they are imitated, they don't have the spirituality and connotation he made, and they can see the truth at a glance, and those people are even more crazy.

In the end, it was his master Zhou Fuzi who came forward to explain, saying that he was busy with his studies and stipulated that only five pieces would be sold to the outside world in a month, and they would snatch them by themselves.

The master is very famous in Fucheng, which solves his troubles.

"The Master is very reckless. In his spare time, he likes to watch me carve, ask me what I think of design, and listen to me talk about things in the mountains; He also told me about his experience in painting and calligraphy, and we have benefited a lot from analyzing the similarities and differences between the two. The two of us don't look like masters and apprentices. It's like making friends in the New Year. ”

The cuckoo asked again, "You keep going home like this, why is he okay?" ”

By this time they had already docked the raft. Lin Chun was silent, waiting for the cuckoo to jump ashore. He tied up the raft and walked with her down the path to the hut before he spoke again.

The trail was made by the autumn students, and the weeds and shrub branches were cut clean. Walking on it at night, many birds lay in wait in the woods on both sides, alarmed by their footsteps and torches, and scurried about.

"I told the Master about me, and the Master told me to come back as soon as possible, saying, 'A man is not a young man.' If you like a woman, you have to fight for it. He also told me not to lose to Huang Yuan......"

The latter words were no longer audible to the cuckoo, and her brain was dead!

Lin Chun said as he watched the jungle on both sides vigilantly, and didn't pay attention to her changes.

When he got home, the cuckoo didn't ask him anymore, and he didn't mention boiling water to wash and rest.

Lin Dameng went to sleep in the tree house on the other side, where the Lin Chun brothers made bunks in the outhouse, and the cuckoo slept alone on the wooden bed in the room.

The next morning, the cuckoo was awake to the sound of a noisy birdsong.

This is not a good feeling, the call of these migratory birds is not as pleasant as the call of the yellow warbler and kingfisher on the mountain. In particular, the cries of wild ducks "quack" and "quack" are terrifying.

She couldn't sleep well and had to get out of bed.

When I woke up, I felt different, unlike my ears, and the island was drowned in the fog in the morning. Birds of all colors fly up and down in the jungle and among the reeds; Across the vast water surface of the smoke waves, the mountains on the opposite bank also disappear from time to time, like a fairyland.

She ran fast by the lake. I not only exercised my body, but also watched the morning scene. Then he slowly ran back.

Outside the wooden house, Lin Chun was waiting for her with a well-killed fish.

He smiled. It's like sunlight breaking through the fog.

"Slept?"

"Slept well. This is what you went to catch in the morning? ”

"Whoa! I just went there with my uncle, and when I came back, I caught fish and brought it. ”

Cuckoo smiled, it turned out that she was the last to get up.

At that moment, she took the fish and went into the house to cook soup for breakfast.

The Lin Chun brothers and Lin Dameng continued to build the courtyard wall with stones.

After the cuckoo had finished breakfast, he took a small hoe and turned the soil over the newly built courtyard wall to sprinkle vegetable seeds. She brought the vegetable seeds from home. Yesterday she also specially got some green garlic and shallots with roots and soil, and planted them yesterday evening. It was also alive, and it looked very bright green, with no signs of withering.

Lin Chun, who was busy, felt very warm and down-to-earth when he saw her figure.

Even Qiusheng looked up and was stunned when he saw this scene-

Isn't there such a woman around him!

The valley was foggy all morning.

Lin Chun took Lin Dameng to look around in the valley forest.

In the middle of this valley there are many cedar trees, especially metasequoia, and some old locust poplars, miscellaneous trees and fruit trees are among them; There are pines at the foot of Xiangyang Mountain near Nanshan, there are cypress trees at the foot of the north mountain, there are large pieces of water bamboo by the lake in the east, and there are many bamboos and trees on Huiyan Island; To the west, they found Nanmu......

The more Lin Dameng looked at it, the more amazed he became.

As it approached noon, the fog gradually lifted a bit.

Lin Chun led everyone to climb the southern hillside and found a place with a wide view to look down on the valley below. He brought a pen and paper with him, sketched the entire valley with charcoal strips, and then told Lin Dameng: This valley feng shui is special, he should divide it according to the five elements and eight trigrams, and in the future, all houses and cultivated land should be placed according to the divided location. It's just that what he has learned so far is very shallow, so he has to wait until he returns to the academy to ask his master before deciding.

Lin Da hurriedly said: "What's the hurry, it's not right away." You can get it if you think about it. ”

With this plan, everyone was not in a hurry to build, and selected good cedar trees and other trees on the nearby mountains, cut them down or stacked them on the spot to dry them naturally, or sank them to the bottom of the lake to soak, and worked hard for several days.

Lin Dameng returned to the village on the second day.

Lin Chun and Du Juan Xiasheng stayed for a few more days, and did not return until the twenty-eighth day of the lunar month.

When I left, I caught a lot of big fish in the lake and brought them home.

After going back, Du Juan let Xia Sheng and Lin Chun send fish to the Huang family and aunt's house, but she didn't send anything else.

Regarding the New Year, Huang Li came to invite her, Lin Chun also asked her to go to the Lin family, and followed Fusheng's daughter-in-law to the door, saying that the mother-in-law and the old lady both asked Sister Du Juan to go to the Lin family's old house for the New Year.

The cuckoo refused.

The novels written by Yuan Ye are not cool texts, but he always likes to fictionalize the peach blossom paradise like Tao Yuanming to satisfy our desire for a better life. This is the case with the Peach Blossom Valley in the ugly chrysanthemum, and the same is true for the Quanshui Village and the Huiyan Valley in the Tianyuan. I hope you can like it! If you like it, you can vote for pink, and it's the end of the month. (To be continued......)

PS: Thank you for the peace charm rewarded by "Ahu Lake"; There are also pink votes cast by "Jiexi" and "Ran Ran, if you see it, please add me to deduct it".
