Wang Er watched all the young men in the village bypass his body in front of the center of the ancestral hall one by one, and rushed towards the mountain together, but he refused to join him, and he was very disappointed.

He got up slowly, turned his head to look at the back of the huge search team that was gradually moving away, and his heart was anxious, and suddenly a flash of inspiration seemed to remember something.

So, seeing him pull his legs, he also left the ancestral hall alone, and hurried towards a rugged path in the mountains that was little known.

As soon as he walked to the stream at the foot of the mountain, he saw a little girl of Huan'er's age walking towards him with a warm face and a playful and dexterous face.

This girl was on the night of the Lantern Festival in the village a few days ago, when she accidentally bumped into Ruoxi when she was walking on the bridge, and let one of the two lively rabbit lanterns she was carrying in her hand come out to apologize.

As soon as the girl got closer, she asked with some puzzled concern, "Uncle Wang, why are you?" Didn't I hear you were sick? Why don't you cultivate at home, where do you want to go in a hurry? ”

Wang Er seemed to be a little tired and paused, wiped his sweat, and panted at the same time: "Oh, it turned out to be Xiao Nizi, who else should I be!" Why did you come up the mountain so early today, what did you pick, and you couldn't even carry it? ”

Wang Er said as he glanced at the small basket on Xiao Nizi's back.

Xiao Nizi also did not hesitate to lean the small back basket on her shoulder in front of Wang Er, and said with a happy face towards him, "Oh, that's the case." Didn't it rain last night, my mother said that the plantain leaves at this time are the most fresh, very suitable for making wild vegetables, and can also make bun filling, so I asked me to pick some at the foot of the mountain, take this opportunity to do more, and also send some to the old lady and Huan'er. And I saw that the white wormwood was also growing and lush, so I also picked some of them. Go back and let my mother mix it with glutinous rice flour to make artemisia baba, or scrambled with eggs to eat, the taste is also very fresh. Uncle Wang, come to my house for dinner when the time comes. Your body was finally saved by that girl's sacrifice, and you must take it seriously in the future! ”

Hearing this, Wang Er's face suddenly looked apologetic, and said: "This time is really troublesome for everyone, so everyone is worried about me, I'm sorry!" ”

Xiao Nizi sighed and said gloomily: "Alas... None of us did anything, just the girl... As soon as the rain became lighter last night, the woodcutter took people to the mountains in the dark to look for them, and heard that several of them were injured, but the girl disappeared as if she had evaporated from the world...... By the way, Uncle Wang, you haven't told me yet, where are you going? ”

Wang Er came back to his senses in a hurry, and the corners of his mouth pretended to smile and said, "I... I really couldn't rest at home, so I wanted to go out and breathe. By the way, go back quickly, your mother should be in a hurry later! ”

"Then you're alone... Can it really be? Xiao Nizi still frowned and said worriedly.

"Alas, let's go, let's go, how can I be so mother-in-law at a young age, if I grow up, I can pay it back. Let you go, you can go, go quickly, go, go......" Unexpectedly, Wang Er suddenly waved his hand towards Xiao Nizi as if he was in a hurry, and he took the trouble to say, so he almost pushed her back with his own hands.

Helpless, Xiao Nizi had no choice but to pout

muttered a compromise, and finally told him: "It has just rained this day, the road in the mountains is slippery, Uncle Wang, your illness has not yet recovered, but you must not go into the mountains!" The men in the village have already gone into the mountains to look for the girl, so don't worry. That... Xiao Nizi went back first, you should go back early, remember to come to my house for dinner later. ”

"Got it, got it, I'll definitely go, go back!" Wang Er urged.

After Xiao Nizi finished speaking, she seemed to be still uneasy and turned back in three steps, sometimes stopping for a moment and slowly leaving.

It wasn't until he saw his figure turn a corner and finally disappear from his sight that Wang Erfang shook his head slightly and muttered, "It turns out that for so many years, the people in the village have taken such good care of me Wang Er. In the future, my Wang Er will no longer be lazy and lazy, I will definitely try to be a self-reliant person, thank you all! ”

As soon as he finished saying his words silently and sincerely, Wang Er seemed to be filled with infinite strength in an instant, and turned his head and stepped on the goat intestine trail that had not been walked for more than 20 years and was almost forgotten by him.

There, there is a mysterious place in this world that only two people know.

When it was almost time for lunch, Huan'er's master and servant were finally sent back to Taohuadian Village by the man.

Huan'er and the man got off the horse first, and then helped the old woman down together, Huan'er looked around the door a little strangely, and muttered to herself in a deep voice: "Strange, why is the village so quiet today?" On weekdays, those who have nothing to do always like to gather under an old locust tree near her house, but today there is no shadow. ”

As soon as she pushed open the door, Huan'er happily shouted inward: "Ruoxi, Ruoxi, the old lady is back......"

"Hey, why is there no sound? Haven't you come back yet? Or is it out again? Huan'er wondered in her heart, and hurriedly went into the house to change and wash the old woman's clean clothes.

Fang Cai carefully helped the weak master up and sat down, and offered hot tea to him and the man.

At this time, the man sitting on the side finally couldn't help the wonder and surprise in his heart along the way, and asked, "Old lady, I didn't expect you to live in such a remote place, and it seems that there are no other villages and people along the way. I didn't know that in the Western Qin Kingdom, there was another corner that seemed to be forgotten. I don't know, what is the name of this village? ”

"Lu Gongzi, please use tea, this place is called 'Taohuadian Village', which is relatively remote and little known. This time, our master and servant are really fortunate to have met Lu Gongzi, otherwise...... By the way, I haven't asked my son's name yet, where does my family live? The old woman still seemed to be terrified, and said politely.

"''Peach Blossom Shop'... Drunk and light boat, the letter stream leads to the depths of the flowers, the dust is wrong, and there is no plan to live between the flowers. The smoke and water are vast, the sun is twilight for thousands of miles, the mountains are innumerable, red like rain, and I don't remember the time and road. It's a real hideaway from the dust, and it's a great place to escape. However, the old lady does not need to be polite, just call me 'Tianlin' in the future. The man took a sip of tea soup and said modestly.

The old woman was about to take a sip of the tea soup in her hand, but when she saw that it had reached her mouth, she stopped abruptly, and said in shock: "'Lu Gongzi'..."Tianlin...'Lu Tianlin'... Childe is called 'Lu Tianlin'? ”

"Exactly, it is the son of Lu Xian of the Western Qin Academy, Lu Tianlin." The man only officially introduced himself to him at this time.

"Xiqin Academy... Lu Xian's son... Lu Tianlin, he is actually Lu Xian's son, and he is already so old......" The old woman was stunned and held the tea soup in her hand, and muttered and repeated in her mouth, the voice was so small that she couldn't even hear it, but her heart seemed to be thunderous about this name.

"Old lady, we... Have you seen it anywhere before? At this time, Lu Tianlin also seemed to have just noticed the old woman who had changed into clean clothes, and the extraordinary temperament in her eyebrows and eyes seemed to be seen somewhere before, so he asked hesitantly.

Hearing this, the old woman came back to her senses, took a sip of the tea soup in her hand, and said with a calm smile, "Oh, the old man has spent most of his life in this village, except for the first time yesterday, he went out for the first time, and accidentally got lost, fell into the quagmire and broke his foot. How do you know Childe? Presumably, there is a bit of similarity between the old body and the old man that the son has seen before! ”

Lu Tianlin only had a shallow suspicion in his heart, and when he heard this, he could only stop and say: "Maybe, I'm really sorry, it's Tianlin who is presumptuous." Tianlin has something to ask the old lady, have you seen any strangers in the village recently? ”

"Strangers... I don't know what kind of stranger Childe is talking about? By the way, listening to what Gongzi just said, it seems that he is looking for someone? Hearing this, the old woman's eyes were stunned for a moment, as if she had guessed a few points in her heart, and then asked tentatively.

"Oh, yes. My father asked Tianlin to find a mysterious identity in the south of the city... A woman who had been veiled all day and looked to be about seventeen or eighteen years old. Lu Tianlin obviously retained a lot in his words, and said.

Hearing this, although her intuition told her that Lu Xian's father and son should be people she could trust. But she has not been in the imperial city for too long, and everything in the court is not yet known, so it is better for her to be a little more careful just in case.

So, the old woman smiled and replied: "This Taohuadian village is located in a remote and not prosperous area, and people have always only walked out to see the outside world, and have never heard of anyone coming in. ”

When Lu Tianlin heard this, he seemed to be looking down and thinking about it in a bit of frustration, and suddenly, Huan'er's eyes rolled as if she wanted to say something, and said hurriedly: "Old lady, will it ......?"

"Shut up!" Unexpectedly, as soon as Huan'er spoke, she was stopped by the old woman's sharp reprimand.

Huan'er knew that the master must have blamed herself for talking too much, so she pursed her lips, then changed her mind and said, "Old lady, you must be hungry, right?" Huan'er will go to the house to cook some rice soup for you and Lu Gongzi first, and then go to Wang Er's house in the village to find Ruoxi to come back, she must still be in Wang Er's house, okay? ”

"Well, you go down first. If you find Ruoxi later, her eyes are not good, you can help her check and check, don't let her delay Wang Er's condition because of this. Wang Er has no one to take care of at home, so you two don't have to rush back. The old woman commanded with words.

After Huan'er understood what she meant, she was about to turn around and withdraw, but Lu Tianlin hurriedly stood up and stretched out his hand to stop Huan'er, and said, "No need, old lady, Miss Huan'er." Now that Tianlin has sent the two of them home safely, he will not stay here for long. Tianlin still has to do what his father told him as soon as possible. Say goodbye, two, there will be a period later! ”
