Chapter 168: Xanadu
After saying this, Danduo glanced at her and withdrew his gaze.
"What are you doing here?" Danduo asked directly.
Compared to Lin Shuqing's unresponsive words after speaking, there were a few bold young people looking at Danduo.
Vigilant: "You are the spirits of the mountains? ”
"You came out of the water!"
It turned out that the misunderstanding was here.
"We have stumbled into the water and been swept up here by the current, and if there is any offense to you, I will forgive you." Dando saluted.
Lin Shuqing watched as everyone's eyes were all staring at Danduo, and suddenly felt that he had been wronged.
looks like a spirit, it's Danduo and it's not her, but this has been said as if he is praising him in disguise.
Forget it, it's uncomfortable to think too much.
Some people can just rely on their beauty to do whatever they want!
After the misunderstanding was resolved, the two were invited to the village's home.
The neighbors next door sent a few pieces of clothes, and a small fire lit in the house, and Lin Shuqing felt that she was back in the real world.
Listening to Danduo chatting with the village chief, Lin Shuqing knew that this village was a place similar to a paradise.
Between the cliffs of the mountain, the entrance and exit are very hidden.
Their ancestors also found such a place to escape the war, and they have lived here for generations, providing for themselves.
It's not that they don't associate with outsiders, the village lacks food and clothing, needs to see a doctor when sick, or when it comes to the Chinese New Year, they will go down the mountain to buy something.
To put it bluntly, the otaku of a village don't like to go out.
In recent decades, no outsiders have visited.
And they didn't come in through the entrances and exits, but came out of the puddles in the mountain streams, no wonder they were recognized as mountain spirits.
"The rice is cooked, so let's eat. We don't have anything to eat in the mountains, so we can only make do with this......
The white-haired village chief scooped a spoonful of something from the jar in front of him and divided it into a wooden bowl in front of him.
This cooking place is to dig a pit in the ground of the hall, and then move a few stones to rest on the broken clay pot, which is quite primitive and simple.
The rice in this room can only be eaten if it is cooked directly with something like wheat.
A few eggs were added to it, but they had already broken in the boiling pan, and the yolks were separated.
The old village chief also specially scooped the egg white into their bowls, and the remaining residues were scooped into the bowls of his children.
Two big men, a little daughter-in-law, plus four children.
The remaining egg scrap is divided into a few adults, and it is much less in the bowls of several children, and even the amount is a lot less.
Lin Shuqing felt that this meal should be difficult for Danduo to swallow, after all, he grew up in fine clothes and jade food.
But to her surprise, Danduo lifted the bowl and ate it quickly, as if it were ordinary food.
Lin Shuqing tasted it.
Well, no salt, it's normal.
The wheat is really not cooked thoroughly, and there are some raw wheat in it, which seems to be new wheat, and the taste is not bad.
The emptiness in the abdomen was also quickly filled, and after eating this bowl, Lin Shuqing felt okay, only half full.
The children sitting around the jar also quickly finished eating and licked the bottom of the bowl.
Lin Shuqing was a little sad to see this scene.
I don't know when I will be able to find food such as sweet potatoes, so that everyone in the world can have enough to eat.
The place where I stayed at night was also the house of the village chief.
Because Danduo said that the two were brother and sister, they were naturally assigned to a house.
At the end of the meal, there was still some afterglow in the sky.
People in the village usually go to bed when it gets dark, so that they can save some torches.
Lin Shuqing touched the wall and slowly walked into the room.
Speaking of bed hemp, it doesn't have a bed either, it's just a mat woven of grass, but it seems that a new pile of clean straw has been placed on it.
Lin Shuqing lay on it, and could smell the sweetness of the wheat straw and the gentle breath of the sun.
Lying on it, she felt that her heart could finally let go of the slightest.
"You're not really going to fall asleep? Who else can sleep peacefully while being hunted down? Dandor's voice rang out in the room.
Lin Shuqing turned over helplessly, regretting that she didn't have a pillow, otherwise she would have blocked her ears.
"Tomorrow, we'll go down the mountain."
"I heard that there is a county seat more than fifty miles away, and when you get there, you and I will return to the bridge and the road to the road, and we will never be separated again."
There was a hint of anger in his voice.
I don't know if it's because Lin Shuqing didn't reply to him, or because he finally wants to leave Lin Shuqing.
Lin Shuqing soon fell into a deep sleep, breathing long and long.
Danduo quietly sat up from the straw mat and stared at the direction of Lin Shuqing's sleep, which was directly opposite him.
The windows of this room were opened very small, and a ray of moonlight came in, and it was somewhat bright.
Danduo looked coldly at the sleeping woman over there, raised his hand, and slowly reached out to her.
But when he was about to touch her, he immediately stopped and stared at her for a long time.
After sitting for a while, I felt a little bored, and then I lay down again.
After Danduo lay down for a long time, Lin Shuqing's eyelids moved and turned over.
Some people think she slept, but she didn't.
In the same room with strangers, how can she put her mind at ease? What's more, the two have a lot of grudges, what if they take her to sleep and strangle her?
Lin Shuqing has been sober until now, and it is all supported by a will.
To be specific about what the will is, it is about the habit of staying up late before.
But she didn't last long, and fell into a deep sleep.
"Like a pig, still sleeping!"
When this voice sounded in the room, Lin Shuqing slowly opened her eyelids and yawned.
"Pigs sleep with pigs......"
“……”
Then he got up and straightened his collar.
This Danduo is really boring enough, just like a child, and he still quarrels with people every day.
The two of them had breakfast, packed their things, and with the help of the villagers, prepared to leave the mountain village.
However, before leaving, Lin Shuqing looked around the village and found something different.
"Old man, the stone you have here is different from the one in other places." Lin Shuqing touched the yellow crystal.
The old man in the village also looked at the place where Lin Shuqing touched, and he also had some understanding in his heart.
"Girl, you can't eat this, you will die if you eat it."
Lin Shuqing smiled, not reassuring this.
"I've read in a book that this stone is edible, but it's ......"
"Girl, I said that something would happen if I ate it, so the girl still don't eat it. The girl is a scholar and has a university question. The old man's old voice seemed to contain endless memories of the past.
Lin Shuqing thought about it, and finally hid what she wanted to say in her heart.
Even if it is giving, it is not necessarily a good thing.
Even if you become rich and noble, if you don't have the strength to protect it, you will become like her.
