It was early autumn, and the cold wind blew through the bare crooked neck trees, blowing away the smoke rising from behind the trees.

At dawn, the rooster cries and the dog barks.

In the mist, two figures walked slowly on the ancient road, covered in mist, dusty, like a homecoming wanderer and a wandering walker.

On the ancient road behind the crooked neck tree, one of the emaciated figures, wearing a cloak and a gray shirt, said to the village girl next to him in a very calm tone: "Yaya, there seems to be a village ahead. ”

He spoke slowly, even weakly, but his voice was clear and showed that he was sixteen or seventeen years old.

The village girl is not a village girl, and she is still a little immature compared to Mo Fei, who speaks. Although the skin is rough and sallow, the eyes are as clear as water.

At this moment, she was carrying a rusty iron black stick in one hand and a thin donkey behind her in the other, glanced into the distance, and said seriously: "Xianggong, we haven't eaten for two days." ”

Mo Fei tilted his head to look at her, gathered the shabby gray shirt on his body, and said with a smile: "Let's go to the village to have a look,...... Uh, stay here for a few days if you can. ”

After saying this, he rubbed his fingers and thought about it seriously.

For this world, it is a visitor from outside the sky, perhaps it is more appropriate to describe it as time and space travel.

He was born in a family of military doctors on earth, and his life has been smooth and has a bright future. During an anti-terrorist mission, he fell off a cliff due to a fight with terrorists. I thought I would die, but I didn't expect the tengu to eat the sun, suck himself into a weird wormhole, and attach it to a child through time and space travel, and it has been ten years now.......

In the past ten years, Mo Fei finally understood that he was not dreaming, not fantasizing, he had really traveled through time and space, and came to an unknown world. But why did you become someone else? Why does an adult's self have a soul attached to a child's body after traveling through time and space? Where did the real one go? Ten years have passed since these questions, and who can explain them to him?

When he was in a confused contemplation, suddenly his clothes were pulled by the maid next to him. He raised his head suspiciously, followed the girl's gaze, and saw an old man on crutches not far away, his face was covered with deep ravines, his waist was bent, and he limped out from behind the crooked neck tree, panting and shouting: "Little brother, where do you come from?" ”

Mo Fei dusted off his body and walked forward with the donkey.

"Uncle, we are from the west." It is a humble voice. "Where is this?"

The old man said, "This is Niu'er Cliff. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the old man seemed to remember something again. Looking at the young man in front of him, although he is not very old, his eyes are deep, and his eyebrows and eyes reveal a feeling of vicissitudes. At this moment, his pupils shrank, and he said in surprise: "You are from the west? But the Western Wilderness is not successful? ”

Expected surprise!

Mo Fei nodded silently, confirming the old man's guess.

In fact, even he himself was depressed. Others pass through the high hall and the bright hall, the prosperous imperial capital, and how to enter and exit have to be a group of servants, calling friends and friends. But after he crossed, he only stayed in Chang'an of the Tang Dynasty for two years, but because of the bloody night of Chang'an, he was chased and killed and was unable to protect himself, so he had to flee into the Western Wilderness, and did not dare to set foot on the road back to Chang'an until he wandered for eight years.

The old man has reached the age of Ershun, and he can be regarded as reading a lot, although he mutters in his heart that someone can come out of that terrible place. But although Mo Fei is young, his speech is quite measured. It's not easy to study it in detail, so he sighed at the moment: "Little brother doesn't know!" Within one hundred and eighty miles of Niu'er Cliff, except for a dilapidated village here, you can never see half a person again! In these years, Xiao Lao'er is the first time to see a living person. ”

"Gollum ......, Gollum!"

The girl screamed hungryly, but she was serious, and her expressionless face seemed to have the words 'I'm not hungry'.

Could it be that he is a good-looking person, with his backbone and his reserve.

But now he knows their predicament, the long journey has long overdrawn his and Yaya's bodies, if he can't recuperate for a while, I'm afraid he won't even be able to get out of this hundred miles of Niu'er Cliff, not to mention that he wants to return to Chang'an and earn a comfortable life in this world.

"This old man ,......"

Before Mo Fei's words were finished, a smile appeared on the old man's face, and he shook his head and waved his hand: "Let's go with the little old man!" Not far from the house, my old woman is cooking! ”

Mo Fei and Yaya glanced at each other and thanked each other repeatedly.

The old man didn't think so, and turned around and walked forward tremblingly, leaning on crutches.

**************************************

Following the ancient road under the crooked neck tree, Mo Fei and Yaya followed the old man and walked to a fenced courtyard.

"Old man, you're back, these two ......?"

It was an old woman of the same age as the old man who spoke, holding on to the wooden door, with one foot outside the threshold and the other foot inside the threshold. glanced at Mo Fei and Yaya behind the old man, and looked at the old man inquiringly.

"Hey ......, old woman, these two are guests from the west, passing by here, we will entertain them for dinner."

After that, the two waved their hands and beckoned Mo Fei and Yaya into the house.

Mo Fei was not a scholar of ancient studies before crossing over, but he probably had a vague understanding of ancient times. In his impression, in a remote area like Niu'er Cliff, there is no oppression by the gentry, and there is no harsh taxation, and the common people in the agricultural civilization, with their hard work, can be self-sufficient, without worrying about food and clothing.

However, in the large porcelain bowl full of cracks on the dining table, the clear soup with a few coarse grains of wheat made a profound crusade against his cognition.

The old woman shook her head at the old man with a wry smile, her lips moved, and she did not speak after all.

The old man sighed and said: "This little brother, alas, ......, it's not my wife who picks the door, it's really impossible to open the pot at home, the little old man thought that ......, alas, can only wronged the two." ”

Mo Fei moved the wooden stool under his buttocks and said with a smile: "Uncle." You're so polite, we're passing through here, it's good to be able to ask for a bowl of water to drink, and, this meal...... It's so much better than what we used to eat. ”

At this time, the maid, who had been silent, picked up the open-mouth porcelain bowl, took a big sip of soup, and smacked her mouth. He seemed very satisfied.

Delicious?

The old man and his wife looked at each other with a smile, and then sipped the soup from the porcelain bowl with their necks twisted.

Uh......, this bitter and astringent thing...... Delicious?

Seeing the puzzled expressions of the old man and his wife, Mo Fei sighed in his heart, and he didn't have anything to say.

After eating, Yaya went to help the old woman clean up the dishes and chopsticks. Mo Fei sat and chatted with the old man.

"Little brother, this ...... I'm really sorry, in recent years, although there are still a few acres of land in this family, but the old woman and I are not as good as before, alas, ......, farm work can not be done, most of the land is deserted. ”

Mo Fei was puzzled, the ancient society has always been based on the clan as a unit, paying attention to many sons and blessings, but since he and Yaya entered this fence courtyard, except for the old man and his wife, he has not seen anyone else.

"Uncle, don't you have any children and nephews by your side?"

When the old man heard Mo Fei's question, his face instantly froze, and after a long time, he sighed heavily and said in a lamented voice: "Yes, how could it not be." ......, speaking of which, the two of us are also having a difficult heir, and we have been married for more than 17 years before we have a son, and we were quite happy, but who would have thought that he would ......, but who would have thought that he had a strange disease three years ago! Hitherto...... Still lying in bed. ”

At this, the old man choked his mouth and his eyes became cloudy.

"What's that?"

When the old man heard this, his eyes flickered, and he said: "Little Lao'er doesn't know either, but it's ......, but the Taoist priest in the village said ......." Speaking of this, the old man lowered his voice and said, "I said that I was possessed by something unclean!" ”

Mo Fei was stunned, frowned and asked, "Unclean things?" ”

The old man nodded, with a worried expression, and sighed while touching the cane with his hand.

Although Mo Fei has experienced a strange crossing, he knows that Hawking's wormhole theory is one of the bases for his crossing, which is not superstition, but science. So after hearing the old man's words, he denied the Taoist priest's theory of gods and ghosts without thinking.

"Uncle, can I go and see him? Maybe I can heal him. ”

"Do you know how to heal?" The old man looked at him in astonishment, and he was puzzled, this young man didn't look like a doctor who knew how to heal.

Mo Fei nodded and smiled: "I understand a little." ”

Could it be that he knows some medical skills, or that he actually understands medical skills very well. In his previous life, as the only seedling of a family of military doctors, if his medical skills were not high, I am afraid that even he himself would feel incredible, although he was helpless against his illness, but this did not hinder his confidence in his medical skills.

The old man immediately shook his head and said, "Little brother, little old man knows that you are grateful for the picture, but this disease really can't be cured." It's not that the little old man has shallow eyelids, it's this disease, it's incurable! ......, do you know why there are so few people in Niu'er Cliff? It's all caused by this disease, not only my kid, but also many people in the house now! ”

Hearing this, his brows tightened, and he looked at the old man with some suspicion and said, "There is no cure?" ”

The old man shook his head and sighed: "No, ala......s, at first, everyone in the village also invited Langzhong, but this road is too far, and it costs a lot of money to go back and forth, and the illness can't be seen." Later, a Taoist priest at the end of the village said that he had been put on his body by something unclean, and everyone stopped. ”

Hearing this, he faintly felt that this matter revealed some strangeness, looked at the old man, and said with some doubts: "Since the Taoist priest can see that he is possessed by something unclean, didn't you ask him about the method of salvation?" ”

At this point, the old woman and the maid who cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks in the back room walked out.
