Chapter 8: The Waterfall
"Okay, okay, Xiaoxue, you take Xiao Mu out for a walk, it's enough for me and your dad to have in the store." After Su Xue's mother finished speaking, she hurriedly pushed Su Xue and Su Mu out of the restaurant, and then looked at Su Xue with a hint in her eyes, when Su Xue was leaving, she saw that her mother was still gesturing to herself, and Su Xue had a black question mark on her face, what happened to her mother today.... Why is the usual style of painting not the same....
The two walked down the street in silence.
Su Mu looked at Su Xue, who was at a loss, and took the initiative to throw out a topic: "By the way, weren't you outside as a staff member in the morning, don't you have to go now?" ”
"Oh, that's, that's also a custom of our mountain village, it was originally the Chinese real estate company that developed here to guide that piece, but the aborigines of the mountain village have spontaneously organized personnel to go to the stone cave to guide those tourists from afar, so that we can understand different groups of people faster, after all, the previous mountain village is not like now, isolated from the world for too long, I don't know anything, and I can learn a lot from people outside. And then over time, it became a custom in our mountain village, and it has been preserved until now, in fact, it's okay for us not to go, but today it's time for me to change shifts, so I don't have to go. Su Xue sorted out the language and explained.
"I see," Su Mu nodded.
"You should be visiting our mountain village for the first time, right?" Su Xue looked at Su Mu and asked.
"Well, it's my first time here, so I'm not very familiar with it." Su Mu looked at the beautiful scenery of the mountain village, and couldn't help but feel a little emotional, in his previous life, he left the earth too early, and his impression of the earth was very rare, but he didn't expect that there was such a treasure land so close to his home, it seems that there are some unknown secrets on the earth, and it just so happens that Su Mu also needs to improve his strength, and by the way, learn about the various secrets on the earth.
"Then I'll be a tour guide reluctantly, follow me, and I'll take you to see the various characteristic beauties of our mountain village!" Su Xue raised her head slightly as she spoke, obviously, for the aborigines of the mountain village, the mountain village can indeed be said to be their pride, after all, this is the place where they have lived for generations, and it can be regarded as their foundation.
"Okay, then it's going to trouble Miss Su." Su Mu stretched out his right hand and made a gesture of invitation, and said with a smile. "Miss Su, please."
Su Xue ignored Su Mu's funny and pointed directly to the waterfall in the north and said, "Then I'll take you to see the source of life here first." ”
After Su Xue finished speaking, she took Su Mu to the north, left the scope of the square, and at a glance you could see the waterfall in the distance, there were many small canals built on the way to the waterfall, the two crossed one small canal after another, and the waterfall in the distance was also from far to near, and after a while, the two came to the waterfall.
"Now, this is the source of life for our entire mountain village, and everyone gets their water from here." Su Xue pointed to this small waterfall road.
"Hmm..."Su Mu looked at the small waterfall in front of him, when he first came to the mountain village, he only glanced at it from a distance, but now when he got closer, he found some problems.
There are a lot of holes on the stone wall of this waterfall, the waterfall is falling down from one of the holes, not to mention why there is water flowing out of the hole halfway up the mountain, the water of this waterfall is also very strange, ordinary people may not be able to see it, but Su Mu actually feels that this water is a little 'light', yes, these waters to Su Mu feel like light as nothing, the waterfall falls from a high place, falls into the small lake below, just splashes a small splash, this is a diving athlete is definitely a full score...
So this small waterfall is almost silent, Su Mu came to the small lake, squatted down and looked at the water surface, the water of the entire small lake is very clear, and people can't even feel the existence of water, if it weren't for the various fish swimming in the small lake, they would even think that this is a huge mirror.
Su Mu stretched out his hand, picked up a handful of water with both hands, and took a sip gently, the water here was really not what he expected, this water also contains wisps of aura, similar to those ingredients, and these auras are all introverted, whether it is the ingredients that Su Mu ate before, or this water source, only by touching it with his hands can he sense the trace of aura contained inside, although Su Mu's cultivation is still very low now, but his heavenly eye is known to see through the endless world, no matter what it is, there is nothing to hide under his heavenly eye, Even though the rebirth was weakened by 10,000 times, the things in this mountain village looked like ordinary things at first glance, and if he hadn't sensed it closely, he wouldn't have been able to sense the aura contained in it.
"Does it taste good?" Su Xue looked at Su Mu with some expectation and said, it seemed that Su Xue was still worried about Su Mu's previous problem with their ingredients.
Looking at Su Xue's little expression of quick praise and deliciousness, she swallowed back her stomach that she was going to say that it was okay, and said with a smile: "Well, it's delicious." ”
"Hmph." Hearing Su Mu's answer, Su Xue snorted a little proudly.
Su Mu looked at Su Xue's proud little expression, only felt that this girl was very cute, the emotions in her heart were never hidden, and they were directly expressed on her face, although the people in the entire mountain village were not as isolated from the world as before, but no one left the place where they lived for generations, the people here are still very simple, just like Su Xue in front of her, this girl's heart is as cute as her appearance, so that Su Mu's lonely heart feels a trace of human warmth, after all, there are too many cruel and cold-blooded events in the monk world, Not only to fight with the sky and people, but also to fight with himself, so that Su Mu's heart was already as hard as immortal gold.
'Immortal Venerable is also a human being...' Su Mu couldn't help but sigh in his heart, rebirth had a huge impact on his state of mind, in this life, seeing his family and friends in his heart, as well as Su Xue's girl, Su Mu suddenly felt that the few days he lived on the earth were happier than the infinite epochs he had experienced in his previous life, and his Dao heart like immortal gold couldn't help but soften a little.
"Su Mu?" Su Xue watched Su Mu in a daze by the lake, stretched out her hand and shook it in front of his eyes.
"Huh?" Su Mu came back to his senses from his memories and couldn't help but smile bitterly, he was really getting more and more sentimental... In the past, it was all thunder shots, and they were all victorious in an instant.
"What's wrong with you? What's on your mind? ”
"I remembered something, by the way, what are these canals for?" Su Mu changed the topic.
Su Xue didn't think much about it, she was directly led away from the topic by Su Mu, it seems that Su Xue's feelings for the mountain village are really deep, but this girl is too easy to fool... Su Mu complained in his heart.
"These canals are the result of the efforts of the ancestors of the mountain village, our mountain village has never rained, the water source can only be drawn from the small lake under this waterfall, because it is too time-consuming and laborious to go back and forth, and it is also very inconvenient to irrigate the farmland, the ancestors dug a lot of small canals, these small canals extend in all directions, covering the entire mountain village, just now we have come all the way to cross those are the result of the efforts of the ancestors, and then after generations of aborigines in the mountain village repair, These canals have been finalized. Su Xue pointed to these small canals on the ground that extended in all directions.
"Wait? You say it never rains in the mountain village? Su Mu grabbed the key information in Su Xue's words just now.
