Walking slowly between the mountains and rivers, walking and stopping, when the sun set, Liu Xiu was already hundreds of miles away from the 'peach orchard', and there were no accidents on the way, but he did not see a more beautiful scenery than the peach forest.

Standing on a small hill, Liu Xiu watched the sunset and thought about how to spend the night.

A small village can be vaguely seen ahead, but according to his understanding of the world, if he is a stranger who rushes away, although he will not be driven out, no one will take care of him, after all, it is not a relative, most of the low-level villagers here are very simple, but there should still be xenophobia and vigilance.

"Forget it, just find a place to camp tonight......"

After pondering for a while, Liu Xiu didn't bother anymore, it was great to light a bonfire, and there was no need to worry about mosquitoes in early spring, and this is not in the mountains, so you don't have to worry too much about when a beast will run out, just pay a little attention to the surroundings.

With a decision, Liu Xiu began to look for a camping location.

Suddenly, Liu Xiu's gaze was certain, and then his gaze shifted to the direction he looked at the next second, and then, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, there was such a thing?

The direction he looked at was a piece of land, although it was sunset, there was also an old farmer ploughing in the geography, and what caught Liu Xiu's attention was the crops he was planting in the field.

More precisely, the seeds he sowed.

"Peanuts? It's actually peanuts! ”

Although there is still a long distance apart, Liu Xiu's keen eyes can see it clearly, and there is no doubt that the other party is indeed sowing peanuts!

Last year, Liu Xiu noticed when he bought seeds in Qingliu Town, and he didn't find peanut seeds at that time, and he hadn't seen this kind of thing in the past year, but he didn't expect to see this kind of crop this time without opinion.

Peanuts are a good thing, eating raw can replenish blood, and it is also a good snack after being fried, and it is also delicious to make peanut tofu.

Discovering this kind of thing, Liu Xiu immediately had the idea of buying a little, you can eat it as a snack on the road, this has not been eaten for more than a year, and he still misses the taste of peanuts.

With an idea, he went in the direction of the old farmer's farming.

When Liu Xiu came to the edge of the soil, the old farmer who heard the movement subconsciously stopped his movements and looked at him and asked, "Is there something wrong with this descendant?" ”

Seeing that Liu Xiu's dress was not from the countryside, and he didn't know him, he was a little restrained because of the old peasant.

"The old man is disturbed, the younger generation has nothing important, but I just passed through here to see that the things you planted seem to be a good food, this time I came here to ask, if it is convenient, can you sell me some?" Liu Xiu arched his hand slightly.

He himself is the son of a farmer, so looking at this old farmer, he can't help but feel a little kind in his heart.

"You said that this shell is red, it is indeed a good snack, if you want to sell some to you, it doesn't hurt, but I don't have it at the moment, if you want it, you have to go to the house with me" The old farmer looked at the peanuts in his hand and looked up and said with a smile.

As an old man who has lived for dozens of years, he may not have much culture, but he still has the eye to see people, and he can feel that Liu Xiu has no malicious intent, so he did not refuse Liu Xiu's proposal to buy.

"Won't that bother you? If you're busy, the juniors can help you finish the rest of the work," Liu Xiu said, looking at the land.

It's not that he hasn't planted before, the old farmer is obviously not busy, and he is not very eager to eat peanuts, so it's nothing to help him buy peanuts by the way.

"No, no, I'm almost done here, not to mention it's getting dark, you wait a minute, I'll pack up and go back" The old farmer hurriedly waved his hand and said, he didn't look like a person who worked at Liu Xiu.

If you work a lot, where is it so clean?

Since this is the case, Liu Xiu can only give up, after all, there is no reason to rush to help others work.

After a while, the old man packed up, carried a hoe, and also carried a basket to take Liu Xiu in the direction of home, Liu Xiu's attitude made him very relaxed, and along the way he chattered and said some short words from the parents, such as the daughter does not often come back to see when she gets married, and the son works in the town to save money to marry a daughter-in-law......

After walking more than 1,000 meters in the field, the two came to a small village, and there were only about 100 households here, much smaller than Linbian Village.

The polarization of this world can be called a perversion, the rich are like Xia Haitang, and a few thousand gold is estimated to be only an insignificant number, and it is a problem for the poor low-level villagers to eat.

This can't be helped, the productivity of the peasants at the bottom is not high, and it is strange that they can only get rich by digging in the fields for the rest of their lives.

The village is quiet and peaceful at sunset, with smoke rising from cooking, chickens and dogs barking and children playing.

Following the old farmer on the road to the village, Liu Xiu found that some villagers were discussing something in groups of three or five with great interest, even if he, a strange foreigner, only glanced at it at most.

Listening attentively, Liu Xiu vaguely heard words like ironclad bandits.

So he asked the old farmer who led the way curiously: "Old man, they all seem to be very happy, could it be that something good has happened in the village recently?" ”

"That's not it, just yesterday, the Ironclad Army dispatched to exterminate the bandits entrenched in a mountain dozens of miles away from us, they have hundreds of people, those guys have to loot around twice a year, and now they are exterminated by the Ironclad Army, of course, they are very happy, but unfortunately, it seems that the leader of the gang of bandits has run away, but the problem is not big, he can't become a climate alone, the Ironclad Army will not let him go, and the life will be a little better in the future" The old man replied with a smile.

Liu Xiu said in his heart that this was the case, the bandits were hateful, and of course it was very happy to be exterminated, although Liu Xiu often heard that there were bandits, bandits, robbers and the like in this world, but he had never seen it until now.

Then he thought about it, the scale of the bandits with hundreds of people is not enough to dispatch the Iron Armor Army, right?

Thinking of the ironclad army he saw yesterday, Liu Xiuxin said that the torrent of steel to deal with hundreds of bandits was to abuse vegetables? It's just bullying, right?

Then he thought of Liu Qingqing, the people in the reserve said that they went out to 'cultivate', could it be that they went to suppress bandits?

Tsk, if that's the case, this is real combat training.

If the bandits mentioned by the old farmer are really exterminated by the reserve of the ironclad army, then the real ironclad army that Liu Xiu has seen, they all look like killing machines, and it makes sense.

The so-called reserve battalion is not a good hall, and the people who are cultivated there are not good women and men, but they are cultivating real warriors and teaching them martial arts cultivation, and at the same time, they are also exercising their real combat ability!

Liu Xiu thought about it in his heart, maybe the hundred and ten bandits that the old farmer said would also be eradicated by the people of the reserve army.

Looking at the heartfelt smiles on the faces of the surrounding villagers, Liu Xiu knew that the stable environment in the eyes of ordinary people was actually fought by countless people silently with their lives......

Thinking about these things in his heart, Liu Xiu and the old farmer came to a low thatched house soon after.

"Little brother, please come into the house and sit down a little, the family is poor and the hospitality is not good, only a bowl of cold water to quench your thirst, please don't be surprised, I will help you get the red in the shell you want, I don't know how much you want, raw or cooked?" The old farmer brought Liu Xiu closer to the house and said slightly restrained.

The old man's so-called red shell is peanuts, the name is different, along the way chatted Liu Xiu understood, this is not actually the main crop of the villagers, the reason why the old man planted, in fact, is because he will also do some small business in the spare time, selling boiled saltwater peanuts, so there are still some at home.

"The old man is polite, give me two or three catties, well, it's going to be raw," Liu Xiu said with a smile.

Peanuts can't be eaten as food, it's good to solve the cravings, and if you want to be born, Liu Xiu got up with the idea of planting a little bit by himself, and it is great to go back to the mountains and waste much time, and it is not bad to create a stone mill and grind peanut tofu after the autumn harvest.

"Then little brother, wait a minute, I'll get it for you right away" The old farmer turned around and left, and after a while, he brought a cloth bag, handed it to Liu Xiu and said: "Look at it, these are enough, if they are not enough, I will go and get some for you again."

Liu Xiu took it and opened it to see that it was a raw peanut with a shell, which was not big and could not be compared with the 'black soil peanut' in his memory.

Weighing the bag a little, Liu Xiu said: "Enough is enough, I don't know how to calculate the price?" ”

"There are a total of three catties of red in the shell here, you can give ten copper plates, and the bag will also be given to you, usually I sell it for only five copper plates a catty, and I don't charge you a high price," the old farmer said with a smile.

This peanut is really not expensive, although it is a little more expensive than the average price of grain, but it is strictly a cash crop, which is reasonable.

took out ten copper plates and gave them to the old farmer, Liu Xiu got up and said goodbye when he achieved his goal, this was just an unexpected transaction, and the old farmer had no intention of keeping him to eat.

Leaving the old farmer's house, Liu Xiu ate raw peanuts, and when it was dark, he came to a small col a few kilometers away from the village, which was the camping site he was looking for.

Liu Xiu hid the basket containing the gold coins, and then he decided to take some peanuts back to the mountains to plant them and come back, although the road was far away, but with his speed, it would not be long in coming.

Despite the dark lights around him, he still looked at it carefully, then stripped himself naked in three or two times, grabbed two handfuls of peanuts and held them in his hands, and stepped out with a strong step under his feet, the ground shook, the sonic boom cloud exploded, and the others had disappeared into the vast night with a wave of qi.

Liu Xiu stripped herself naked to prevent this supersonic rush from tearing her clothes.

He doesn't plan to plant many peanuts, two handfuls are enough, and holding it in his hand can also prevent it from being damaged by air friction at high speed.

Compared with using the surrounding wind to 'flutter slowly and slowly', in fact, Liu Xiu prefers the feeling of rapid progress, sonic boom clouds roaring, air waves rolling, and the wind blowing in his face, this is the romance that belongs to men alone, so it is not unreasonable for so many people to like 'drag racing'......

Liu Xiu didn't know how fast he was, after all, he couldn't measure it, but the surrounding scenery was rapidly retreating, and if someone else came, he was afraid that his sight and thinking would not be able to keep up with his terrifying speed.

Rumble~!

A roar echoed through the mountains, the sonic boom cloud spread gradually disappeared, and Liu Xiu once again returned to the mountain where he had been away for a few days, slowing down, and the surrounding air currents surrounded him towards the bamboo tower.

"Huh?"

Before the person landed in the bamboo building in the air, Liu Xiu subconsciously wondered.

He had a wide vision from a high place, although it was night, but the bright moon hung high and his vision was not affected much, just now he seemed to see a black shadow in the hot spring above the snowy mountain flickering.

"Someone seems to be there? But it doesn't make sense, who would come here if nothing is wrong in this vast mountain? Isn't it dazzling? ”

Puzzled, Liu Xiu simply walked towards the hot spring with a light touch after landing on the bamboo tower, but when he arrived at the hot spring, there was no abnormality, and there were no suspicious traces on the surrounding ice and snow surface.

Is it really dazzling?

Liu Xiu scratched his head and muttered to himself, at this moment, there was a huge movement from the side of the lake, he turned to look, and found that it was the neighbor who stretched out his huge body and was looking at his side, and after a glance, he slowly sank to the bottom of the water and disappeared, as if he understood that the movement here was made by Liu Xiu before, so he didn't care.

"The neighbors didn't react unusually, it seems that I was really dazzled before......"

Shaking his head, Liu Xiu no longer bothered about this matter, returned to the bamboo building in a slippery manner, and then took a hoe to the field full of fruit trees to plant peanuts......
