Darkness and coldness surrounded him, Zu Zhenlin felt frightened and scared in his heart, and wanted to call for help, but he couldn't make a sound. I don't know how long it took for Zhenlin to finally feel a warmth, but he was still in the dark, and he wanted to open his eyelids, but he couldn't do it.

Confused, I don't know the time, I don't know the place, suddenly there is a voice in my ears, although I can't hear it really, but it is indeed a human voice, I don't feel excited, I want to open my eyes to see the world, desperately open my eyes. A glimmer of light came into view, and the figure swayed.

"Grandma, he moved, you see, he moved. A silver bell shouted in his ears.

Zu Zhenlin gradually regained consciousness, and his eyes finally saw clearly, a little girl was staring down at him, her apricot eyes were round, her eyes were clear and bright, and she looked pretty.

"Ah, grandma, he's awake, come and see. The little girl cried out.

"Okay, okay, got it, don't shout, it's noisy. A gentle voice came.

A white-haired old woman appeared in Zhenlin's sight, her face was kind and full of smiles, "Young man, how are you feeling?

Zu Zhenlin wanted to speak, but he could only make a 'ah, ah' sound.

Looking at Zhenlin, who looked anxious, the old grandmother smiled and said, "Don't worry, young man, you are too injured and you haven't been able to get better, and when you are completely healed, you can speak again." ”

When Zu Zhenlin heard this, he was relieved.

"Young man, your life is so great, you can survive such a serious injury. You can just take care of your injuries with me, and don't worry about anything else. The old woman comforted.

The little girl was chattering beside her, like a yellow warbler out of the valley, crisp and pleasant, "Big brother, I've always been taking care of you, you know? Of course, there is Brother Li who will take care of you with me, but he only exerts a little effort. Eh, by the way, big brother, how did you get hurt?"

The old grandmother looked at her granddaughter, shook her head, and interrupted: "Okay, okay, don't talk endlessly, disturb the big brother to rest." When he is well, you can talk about it for as long as you want. ”

The little girl pouted, a little reluctantly.

The old grandmother rubbed her granddaughter's head with a smile, "You are watching my brother here, I will go to cook and eat later." ”

The little girl obeyed her grandmother's instructions, stopped talking, moved a small stool by herself, and sat next to Zhenlin, staring at Zhenlin with a pair of big eyes.

Zhenlin also looked at the little girl and wanted to smile as a sign of gratitude, but when he pulled the corners of his mouth, he felt a burst of pain.

The little girl frowned when she saw Zhenlin, and said with concern: "Alas, big brother, are you okay?"

Zu Zhenlin endured the pain and shook his head.

The little girl laughed again, "Big brother, my name is Li Yiyi." I know you can't speak yet, it's okay, when you're well, just tell me what your name is, I'm not in a hurry. Big brother, isn't it terrible outside, why are you so seriously injured? Grandpa Yang has such a high medical skill, when he saw you, he said that you were hopeless, but fortunately, you are blessed with a great life, God willing, you are alive again. By the way, big brother, you should be hungry, right? You've been in a coma, you can't eat, I can only feed you some soup. ”

The little girl is very lively, a little talkative, and she can't stop talking, but Zhenlin hasn't heard human language for a long time, so she doesn't feel bored, on the contrary, she is very happy, and the little girl's voice is melodious, which makes people feel more comfortable.

"Yiyi, go and call your brother Li over for dinner, alas, this kid is really, too polite. The old woman shouted outside.

Li Yiyi ran out and shouted, "Got it, grandma." ”

After the little girl ran out, the house fell silent.

Zu Zhenlin recalled the experience of escaping death this time, and figured out the cause and effect, he could only sigh, people's hearts were unpredictable, and the world was unpredictable. There is also a good fortune, good people have good rewards.

Outside Grandma Li's house, on the sheep intestine path, Li Yiyi dragged a young man's sleeve, regardless of his reluctance, the young man was thin-faced, thin, and a little pale, wearing coarse cloth clothes, washed a little white, and there were patches on it.

"Xiao Yiyi, don't pull it, if you drag it again, my sleeve will fall off, I'll go with you, can't I go with you?" the young man complied.

The little girl let go of her hand and said, "Wouldn't it be nice to do this earlier? ”

Young people have long been accustomed to it, pampering and smiling.

When he entered the room, he was nagged by the grandmother again, disgusted with his politeness.

The young man apologized repeatedly.

When the young man saw that Zhenlin had woken up, he was also surprised, happy, and a trace of indescribable shyness.

The old grandmother fed Zhenlin some soup before going to eat.

Time flies, and it's half a decade in the blink of an eye.

Zu Zhenlin already knew the place where he was staying now, this place was isolated from the world, and he couldn't see outsiders for a long time, it was called Lijia Village, which basically belonged to the Li clan, with only a few exceptions. Just like the old man Yang who healed Zhenlin and the young man, the young man is called Li Cao, although he has the same surname but is not of the same ancestry. Li Cao fled here with his parents, but his mother was seriously ill and died when she arrived in the village. When his father was hunting, he was attacked by a bear and was too seriously injured, and Old Man Yang was also unable to return to the sky, so Li Cao was left alone. The child is young and has a miserable life, but fortunately, the people in the village are simple and have a lot of help, especially Grandma Li and Old Man Yang take good care of him, so that Li Cao can grow up safely.

Grandma Li's family also had misfortune, Li Yiyi's parents died early, and her grandmother and granddaughter depended on each other.

Old man Yang lives in seclusion here, has no children and no daughters, and is alone, because he knows how to use medical skills, knows how to read and write, and the people in the village respect him.

Zhenlin also finally understood why Li Cao blushed and was shy when he saw him for the first time. At that time, Zhenlin was injured and couldn't move, and Grandma Li was too old to move him. And Old Man Yang was unwilling to do it, so he could only ask Li Cao to help change the dressing and wipe his body, which means that Zhenlin's whole body was looked at by a man, it was really a heavenly cycle, Zhenlin saw the naked body of the dragon in the sky, and now he is being looked at.

After many days of recuperation, Zu Zhenlin was finally able to move and eat on his own. Take back your own things, the storage ring and snow silkworm armor are there. The clothes were all scratched, but Grandma Li still washed them and put them away, for fear that Zhenlin would be useful.

Zu Zhenlin looked at the clothes that had become strips of cloth, and thought that there should be trees growing on the cliff face, and the branches and leaves served as a buffer, so that he fell into the water and did not die.

The moon is full, the twilight clouds are scattered, and the night is like a clear day.

Zu Zhenlin took out the Huiyang Pill from the storage ring, which was crystal clear, exuding a faint fragrance, and the fragrance was refreshing. Swallowing the pill, Zhenlin meditated cross-legged, running the exercises slowly, and the spiritual energy in his body flowed. Zu Zhenlin had been attacked by three people earlier, especially the person who knocked him off the cliff with all his strength, leaving him seriously injured. In addition, although there is a cushion, the injury is also aggravated. If it weren't for the more than ten years at home, the body was polished, and it is estimated that he would have died this time. The aura urges the elixir to make the effect of the medicine work faster, and to bind the wounds of the spiritual veins and viscera. After the exercise was completed, the body was comfortable, and the pain was finally relieved.

Daily practice allowed Zhenlin to recover from his injuries quickly, and he was soon able to walk on the ground, which amazed Li Cao and them.

At noon, after eating, Zu Zhenlin asked Li Cao to lead the way and visit Old Man Yang to express his gratitude, but there was an extra little tail on the way, and Li Yiyi also had to go with him.

The little girl likes to listen to Zhenlin talk about the outside world, and every time she listens to it, she has a longing and longing expression, which makes her more sticky to Zhenlin.

"Brother Zu, you haven't said how you got injured, how did you fall into the river?" Li Yiyi asked curiously.

Zu Zhenlin didn't want to mention it, some didn't want to say it, he couldn't stand the little girl's soft grinding and hard bubbles, and kept pestering, and said helplessly: "I was robbed by someone, I didn't beat them, those bandits wanted to kill people and kill people, but fortunately I jumped into the river in time to escape." ”

"Ah, those people are so hateful, too. The little girl said indignantly.

Mr. Yang lives in an independent courtyard, not with the villagers, surrounded by chrysanthemums, two locust trees in front of the door, the canopy is like a cover, and the branches are luxuriant.

Li Cao led Zhenlin into the courtyard, and the old man Yang was reading a book in the courtyard, the old man had gray hair, full of silver hair, ruddy complexion, and pine-shaped crane bones.

When Old Man Yang saw Li Cao, he put down the book with a smile and said, "Why are you here now?"

Li Cao introduced Zhenlin, "Old man, this is the person you saved, he came over to thank you." ”

Zu Zhenlin hurriedly saluted, "In Xia Zu Zhenlin, thank the old man for saving his life." ”

Old Man Yang waved his hand, "You can come back to life, it has nothing to do with me, what I prescribed to you are some ordinary medicines, I can only say that you are hard-lived, survive." In fact, when I saw you, I didn't want to save it, wasting medicinal herbs. Grandma Li is still soft-hearted, you must try it, I will prescribe the medicine. Decoction and dressing, taking care of you is made by Grandma Li and Li Cao, you don't have to thank me. ”

Zu Zhenlin smiled: "Thank you, if it weren't for the old man's medicine, no matter how hard I was, it would be useless." ”

Li Yiyi interjected: "Grandpa Yang, if Brother Zu wants to thank him, you just let him thank him, what is this, really." ”

Old man Yang listened to the little girl's complaints, instantly changed his expression, and smiled, "Okay, okay, by the way, Yiyi, I have fresh osmanthus cake here, do you want to try it?"

The little girl was overjoyed and cried out for food.

"By the way, I have freshly brewed rice wine here, let's try it together. Old man Yang said.

The four of them sat together, the little girl ate the osmanthus cake with satisfaction, and Old Man Yang poured a cup for Zhenlin and Li Cao. Zhenlin's injuries are just right, and he can only taste them. The freshly brewed rice wine is green and fragrant.

Old man Yang is addicted to alcohol, Zhenlin and Li Cao just drank a glass, and his old man has already drunk four glasses in a row, and most of the last jar of wine has entered the old man's stomach, and he is drunk.

Li Cao was used to seeing it, so he carried the old man into the house and stayed behind to take care of him.

Zu Zhenlin and Li Yiyi also said goodbye and went back.
