Early the next morning, when the first rays of the morning sun shone on Xu Zilin's face through the dilapidated window, bringing a trace of warmth, Xu Zilin suddenly woke up in fright, he subconsciously touched the position next to him, but it was already empty, and Han Feng didn't know when he had left the house.

Xu Zilin then touched the button of his clothes, still buttoned at the position of the second button, he breathed a sigh of relief, his face may have turned red again because of the cold weather, and smiled to himself: "It's really cold this day, I'll buckle the top button too!" ”

After tidying up the bed, when Xu Zilin pushed open the creaky wooden door and walked out of the earthen house, he was immediately startled by the situation in front of him.

just listened to the movement of the head of the group, probably for fear of disturbing his early sleep, and deliberately made himself not make a loud noise.

"Lao Xu, wake up, it's early!" Han Feng put down the stone weighing more than thirty catties in both hands, panting, and greeted him with a slight rise and fall in his chest.

Xu Zilin said: "Old Han, it's so cold this day, you get up early in the morning to exercise, don't give you a cold anymore." ”

Han Feng said with a smile: "The cold is not frozen, most of it is because of weakness, I have a problem, I can't be idle, I always have to exercise when I don't kill devils, in order to ensure that my mind is clear and comfortable, I don't know if you believe it or not, there was an old gentleman who told me my fortune back then, saying that I lacked exercise in my life, only insist on exercising, in this life!" There is a rush. ”

Xu Zilin said: "I naturally believe this, I have also heard that Old Han, you were just a stupid boy in the village before you joined the army, and then a fortune teller said that your stupid strength must be sent to the army to hone before it can be changed, and in the end, it was Father Han crying and begging to send you into the team, is there such a thing?" ”

"Yes, doesn't that make people feel unbelievable?"

Xu Zilin shook his head and said: "No, I believe that there are many things in this world that are difficult to explain, and many children who were stupid and stunned when they were young suddenly became extremely smart when they grew up, and even made meritorious contributions to their ancestors?"

For example, Liu Bei during the Three Kingdoms period was just a weaver and a buyer, but who could believe that he later became the monarch of Shu?

Another example is Zhu Yuanzhang and Liu Bang and the like, before they achieved great things, who could believe that they were just ordinary laymen?

I haven't seen your previous stupidity, but you are smart and I am clear, not to say, just say that I taught you to read, in less than half a month you basically mastered all the words I knew, my God! I've never taught a student as smart as you when I've grown up. ”

Han Feng put on a coat while crying and laughing, and said, "Old Xu, don't praise me, let's do the right thing."

I came to see that you were sleeping soundly, and I didn't want to disturb you, and I was going to see the village chief myself, but you also know that I am afraid that I will not understand what the villagers in this little cow village are saying, so I can only bring you to be my interpreter. ”

"Willing to help!"

The two rushed to the middle of the Niu Village to visit the village chief of the Niu Village, Mr. Niu, which is also ridiculous, the village chief of the Niu Village happened to be surnamed Niu, and when he was walking on the road, Han Feng even joked with Xu Zilin that this Niu Village should not be the village of the Niu Village Chief's own village!

The houses in the whole village are lined up, one side goes around the river, the position of the river is two or three meters lower than the overall position of the cow village, after walking more than 20 meters from the right side of the river, it is the earthen houses of the villagers of the small cow village, these earthen houses are built against a mountain, the mountain is called the sacred cow mountain, it is said that there was a sacred cow falling in this mountain in ancient times, so this mountain gave this name.

Han Feng and political commissar Xu Zilin thought it was just a legend at the time.

But the old man who led the two to see the head of the cow village said that this cow mountain is not just a legend, after the cow died on the mountain, its body was buried on the cow mountain, if you have a pious heart, take a dig and hoe to go up the mountain, you can even dig out the bones of the cow on this mountain, the bones of the cow have miraculous healing effects, if your hand is cut by a knife, or is cut by a stone, you only need to grind the bones of the cow into powder, sprinkle a little evenly on the wound, within an hour or two, And he will be healed in no time.

Will it be so magical?

Xu Zilin and Han Feng naturally didn't believe it, but they couldn't refute the old man with their mouths, so they had to smile and nod their heads to show their understanding.

While the three of them were laughing, the village chief's house arrived, it was a small courtyard, and the perimeter was a circular wall made of stones, and a two-meter-wide opening was opened in the center of the wall facing the door of the hall, and there was no need for an additional door, so it was open.

There is a vegetable field on the left side of the yard, and there are several pear trees on the right side, it is winter at this time, the vegetable field is covered with snow, but you can still see a few almost frozen cabbage, the pear trees have long been left with only the trunk, and the bare appearance is slightly bleak.

The layout of the whole courtyard is very simple, but it gives people a very pleasant feeling, at this time, that is, in winter, if it is in the spring when the flowers bloom, the pear trees bloom, and the green vegetable fields also emerge sharply, then the whole courtyard will immediately add a lot of vitality, bringing the owner a pleasant mood and a suitable living environment.

The door of the village chief's house was closed, and in the center of the wooden door were two ring-shaped knockers, Han Feng shook the knocker up and down and knocked on the wooden door, and the crisp sound of iron and wood hitting slowly spread throughout the small courtyard.

An old voice soon came from the room, "Who? Although this sentence is still a local dialect, Han Feng understands it.

Xu Zilin hurriedly said, "Is it Village Chief Niu?" We are the Eighth Route Army, and I have come with our regiment commander to visit your old man's home. ”

With a creaking sound, the wooden door was opened from the inside, and an old man with white hair staggered out of the room, he looked at Xu Zilin a few times, and then looked at Han Feng, "You are the Eighth Route Army?" ”

Xu Zilin said: "Yes! Our team happened to pass by your village, and we borrowed some empty houses in your village last night, after all, it disturbed you, so I and the head of the regiment came to visit you, and I would like to thank you for your kindness! ”

"No need, I've heard of the Eighth Route Army, it's good for our people! Those houses are always empty, if you are used to living in them, you can stay as long as you want! ”

"Thank you, village chief!"

In the following conversation, the two parties talked very happily, Xu Zilin, this guy spoke very politely and politely, and his mouth was even more powerful, coaxing the old village chief who was originally with a straight face to smile, and even Han Feng, an outsider who couldn't understand what a few people were talking about, could see that the old village chief liked Xu Zilin very much.

When he left from the village chief's house, Xu Zilin, who was very curious, also specially borrowed a hoe, and as the name suggests, went to Shenniu Mountain to dig to see if he could really dig out the bones of Shenniu......
