Chapter Twenty-Four: The Paradise

People say that if you eat a trench, you will grow wise, and since this sentence can be handed down, it naturally has its truth. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

After the incident last year, the people of Nanshan Village have changed. This kind of change is a subtle change, if Wei Xuan hadn't inadvertently broken it, I'm afraid he wouldn't have found it.

I can't help but sigh about this: once the trust between people is broken, it is difficult to repair it.

In the past, the people in the village longed for life in Chang'an, and always thought that it was a paradise. At the feet of the Son of Heaven, there is endless prosperity, and just thinking about it makes people yearn for it. When the farm is not working, the children will always clamoring to go to Chang'an to have a look. If you have the conditions to see it, when you return to the village, you will tell your friends about the orderly houses, spacious streets, and bustling and lively markets, and at the end, take out the snacks bought in the West Market and distribute them to others. There are not many things, but they can always make people happy and envious in their hearts.

For Uncle Wu, Chang'an is a very unique place. Not because of its tall city walls, nor because of its prosperity, but because it was the residence of the Sixteen Guards, which contained the most elite troops of the Tang Dynasty. If it weren't for the great battle in Luoyang, he would now live in the city that the people in the village yearn for, wearing exquisite armor and holding sharp blades, majestic.

There may also be a horse, jujube red, named Xiaohong by him.

Why is it called Xiaohong? There is no other reason than because the family dog is called Rhubarb.

The day Uncle Wu returned to the village was a sensation, after so many years away, many people thought he was dead, and there were also speculations that he became an official, but they didn't think that he would come back intact and plunge into the yellow earth. The scenery of returning to his hometown did not belong to Uncle Wu, but people used more words at that time but "gray and slippery".

Qin Zhen is one of the few people who knows the truth about Uncle Wu's return, and he has become the only one after the incident a few years ago. Of course, now there is a Wei Xuan. In fact, Wei Xuan was really taken aback when he knew the truth, he didn't expect that there would be such a person in this world.

Xuanjia Jun, the royal retainer, Uncle Wu refused all, just because of a promise when he left the village. The hero was sad about the beauty pass, and when Shi Shiran left the barracks, Uncle Wu was undoubtedly a hero.

"Sure enough, Nanshan Village is not an easy place." Wei Xuan sighed again.

There is a hero like Uncle Wu, and there is a strange thing like Li Chang, how can this water and soil be simple?

The people in the village are very satisfied with the current life, in the past, there will be people who go to other villages to string relatives, and now they are guarding this acre and three points of land without moving the nest, especially Wei Xuan, every day in the thatched hut, the pool, the thatched house two points and one line, in addition to teaching children to read is to hold a fishing rod to fish by the pool. Others are not surprised, what is it for people who can turn brine salt into green salt with this quirk?

There are a lot more fish in the pool, Qin Zhen has caught some from the river and thrown them in since he discovered Wei Xuan's hobby, so that now the pond is almost full of fish, and a good pond with water has become a fish pond. But fortunately, the villagers can improve the food by catching one every once in a while, and the fish soup cooked with green salt will not have a strange taste.

When the weird returns to the ordinary, no one will find out that Wei Xuan has been using a straight hook.

The old Taoist priest has not come back yet, and Wei Xuan almost thought that he had died in a foreign country for half a year, which also caused Xuan Kui to shoot the case in front of Wei Xuan and leave angrily, and Wei Xuan finally knew what an honest man looked like when he was angry.

Chop the scattered table into pieces, and eat barbecue in the evening.

After knowing each other for so long, Wei Xuan still knows that Xuan Kui doesn't pay too much attention to his diet. Unlike monks, Taoist priests do not have so many taboos in food, and after living with the old Taoist priest for so many years, they have also practiced Xuan Kui's extraordinary cooking skills. Wei Xuan felt that Xuan Kui's grilled fish was quite the style of Wushan grilled fish in the past, even if there was a lot of seasoning.

"What does it mean for you to live alone in the mountains? It is better to build a thatched hut and a grass hut in this village, so that there is a response. Wei Xuan carefully took off a fish bone, blew it and handed it to the child who was drooling on the side, and patted the child's head at the end.

"The dojo cannot be wasted." Xuan Kui shook his head, his expression as flat as ever.

"Huh? I said, why are you so stubborn, even if you just sit down blindly because of your practice, you can't do it. Do you understand Hongchen's experience? If you don't see the prosperity of the world, how can you understand heaven and man? ”

"This ...... Master only said that I should take care of the ashram and did not mention ......"

"What's mentioned? Why do you just listen to your master like that! Yes, I know that you respect your teacher, so let me ask you, is my senior brother and your master not here now? ”

“…… Yes"

"Am I your uncle?"

“…… Yes"

"Do you want to listen to the words of the elders?"

“…… Yes, but ......"

"It's nothing, now I give an order as your master's junior brother and your little uncle, tomorrow you will pack up and come down from the mountain." Wei Xuan handed the grilled fish with clean thorns to the children on the side, and said to Qin Zhen, "Brother Qin, tomorrow you will also go up the mountain with Xuan Kui, since there is no one in the temple, the fruit wine will naturally be moved down." It's been comfortable for so long, and I'm really not used to drinking without a sip......"

Regarding Wei Xuan's words, Qin Zhen has always been obedient, not only that, but also called other idle people in the village to help. After three trips back and forth, the old Taoist priest's inventory for many years was finally cleaned up and put into a yard. Wei Xuan naturally wouldn't let these wines be exposed to the wind and rain outside, so he had already dug a wine cellar and moved in just to fill it. There is also a surplus, send some to each family, set aside two jars for exclusive drinking, and then bury some under the pine, cypress, and willow trees in the courtyard, Wei Xuan thinks it is perfect.

This kind of thing of vassal elegance has always been the favorite of literati, and Wei Xuan feels that he can barely take a side, so he is naturally not exempt from vulgarity.

Xuan Kui's descent from the mountain is a big deal for the current Nanshan Village, and there is no need for Xuan Kui to worry about it, so Uncle Wu led the old and young masters in the village to build a grass house next to Wei Xuan's yard. It's more lively now, on the left of Wei Xuan's house is Xuankui's cottage, on the right is Qin Zhen's house, a few steps on a small road is Uncle Wu's house, and then the left and right are the remaining families in the village.

To the west is the field and fish pond, to the north is the river, by the mountains and rivers, there are both birds and insects, and there are wheat waves and green onions. When the sky is fine, watch the fish play in the pond, and look at the smoke of the cooking; Smell the fragrance of the earth when it rains, and look at the smoke and fog. As for the road to Chang'an in the east, who cares?

"In the Jin Taiyuan Dynasty, the Wuling people fished for their business. Walk around the river, forget the distance of the road. Suddenly, the peach blossom forest, mixed with hundreds of steps, no miscellaneous trees, fragrant grass is delicious, and the fallen flowers are colorful......"

Although Nanshan is not a peach source, it is better than a peach source.
