Chapter 100: Clearing the Wasteland

Yan Xi'an listened and said to Lu Yu: "Uncle, you are taking advantage of people's danger and taking people's daughters." ”

Lu Yu laughed and said, "I'm not a daughter who snatches people, I'm a daughter who asks for people, I'm a good uncle." ”

"Shameless." Yan Xi'an's face was slightly red, and he said, "Uncle, let's not tell my father first." ”

"Why is that?"

"If my father knows about our relationship, even if he doesn't object, it won't be good for the two of us to come out alone in the future."

Lu Yu thought about it carefully, and felt that Yan Xi'an's words were reasonable, if Yan Jibai and his wife agreed to be with Yan Xi'an, then taking her out alone in the future would inevitably teach people to think about it.

The two felt that it was a little bad to go back together, so Lu Yu first sent Yan Xi'an out of the valley, and then returned to the valley by himself, stayed in the valley until it was almost dark, touched two more fish in the stream, and then returned home.

Eat fish in the evening, one stew, one braised soup. While eating, Lu Yu suddenly remembered the deliciousness of the fish head stewed tofu, and decided to harvest soybeans this year and make some tofu.

After dinner, Lu Yu boiled some hot water and poured it into the wooden basin soaked in the rice seeds, the water in the basin was already cold, and adding some hot water could promote the rice seeds to speed up germination.

Rice seeds need to be soaked for several days before they can produce white buds, and in between, Lu Yu carried a shovel into the valley, wanting to dig out two paddy fields as soon as possible for sowing seedlings.

Lu Yu had a lot of strength, and a spade went down to a large piece of soil, and he would not feel tired, so he shoveled a piece of grass in the morning and dug a shallow two-point field.

If there is no water in the field, you can't grow rice. Lu Yu dug another shallow ditch to bring water from the stream into the field. Lu Yu had to wait for the soil in the field to be soaked and soft, and then build two seedlings in the field (the soil for sprinkling rice seeds), and then he could sow the seeds.

Lu Yu was worried for a few days, but he was afraid that the rice would be soaked but would not sprout. Early this morning, Lu Yu finally saw the rice in the basin emitting white small buds.

In fact, it is most suitable to sow rice seeds in early spring when it is warm and cold, and the green valley is a little warmer, but it is also possible to sow rice.

Yan Yubai saw Lu Yu soaking rice seeds, and finally couldn't help but ask him on this day: "Brother Yu, has the valley you said been arranged?" ”

In fact, Lu Yu was also about to tell Yan Jibai and his wife about the valley, he said: "Yes, I have dug two points of rice seedlings, and I am going to build a square today, and I can sow seeds tomorrow." ”

Yan Yubai was very happy to hear this, and said, "Can rice be planted in the valley?" That's great, tomorrow I'll go into the valley with Brother Yu and take a hand. ”

Lu Yu didn't hesitate, nodded and said, "That's good, sowing rice seeds, we still have to open a few acres of paddy fields for transplanting." "In fact, oxen are needed to plough the fields, but where is there cattle in Lu Yu's family, so he can only go into battle by himself.

After thinking for a while, Lu Yu said to Yan Jibai again: "Brother Yan, that valley is in the depths of Yangshan Mountain. ”

"It doesn't matter, the road is farther, I can still walk."

Lu Yu smiled: "You don't have to go, I have a way to teleport us into the valley in an instant." ”

Yan Jibai was stunned, and after a while, he said, "Teleportation instantly? Is there such a miraculous thing? ”

Lu Yu nodded and said, "It's me who is not good, I have been hiding it from my eldest brother and sister-in-law, but in fact, I am ...... It's a cultivator, and he knows some mysterious and strange methods, and that teleportation array is what I recently arranged. Lu Yu was indeed a little apologetic, he felt at this time that he had practiced and it didn't seem to be a big deal, but he had been hiding it from the Bai couple. In addition, Lu Yu has already made a lifelong agreement with Yan Xi'an, and he feels that he should not hide it from the couple.

How do you know that Yan Yubai only smiled slightly, but said: "Although I am clumsy, I have already seen that Brother Yu is not a mortal. Brother Yu can tell me that he doesn't treat us as outsiders. ”

Lu Yu smiled and thought, "Of course I didn't treat you as an outsider, maybe I'll have to call you 'Dad' in the future." However, after telling Yan Yubai about his cultivation, Lu Yu was in a much lighter mood, thinking that he would do something that would make ordinary people feel "unbelievable" in the future, and he would no longer have to be sneaky.

Lu Yu said: "Of course, Brother Yan is his own person, and this matter is indeed something I shouldn't have." ”

"Brother Yu is serious." Yan Yubai rubbed his hands and said with a smile: "The instant teleportation you said, I really want to experience it." ”

"It's easy to do." Lu Yu said: "Then later, the five of us will go into the valley to take a look, and Brother Yan will also help to see where it is better to open the field." ”

Yan Yubai said: "Brother Yu made fun of me, I am a layman when it comes to farming and farming. He shook his head again and sighed, "But too, I should learn to grow crops." ”

Lu Yu smiled slightly, noncommittal in his heart.

After having lunch at home, Lu Yu told Mrs. Yan that he was going into the valley in the afternoon and wanted to go to all five of them.

Mrs. Yan said, "Is there work to be done in the valley?" Let's go together, I've been at home for a long time, and I really want to go out for a walk. ”

Yan Jibai smiled: "I can't see it, you still feel bored." ”

"Aren't you too?" Mrs. Yan glanced at her husband and said, "In this ghost world, we can't go out shopping at will like before, we can't go out to breathe if we want to, how can we not be bored." ”

Hearing Mrs. Yan say this, Lu Yu was very reluctant to go, thinking that he had indeed never taken Yan Jibai and his wife out of the house, and the two of them would not leave their house a few feet away at most, how could they not feel bored? Thinking of this, Lu Yu said: "Then let's go out in a while, although the valley is not big, the environment is good, if the eldest brother and sister-in-law are willing, we can live inside." ”

"Oh no, it's more boring in there, there's no one, I don't want to live in it." Now that the weather is a little warmer, Yan Xiding feels that it is not so difficult outside.

Yan Xi'an also said: "Yes, let's just farm in the valley, and we don't need to live there." What she thought was that if the family really moved in, she would have one less place to be alone with Lu Yu in the future.

After eating, he locked the door of the house, Lu Yu asked the five people to stand in a circle hand in hand, and then as soon as his mind moved, the five people looked dark at the same time, and appeared in the valley at the same time after an instant.

Seeing the spring scene of green grass and red trees in the valley, the white couple were stunned for a long time, and they didn't speak for a long time.

Lu Yu didn't bring in the rice seeds, he wanted to soak them for one more night, come back tomorrow to sow seeds, and then dig the paddy field for transplanting seedlings.

Yan Jibai took a turn in the valley, looked here, looked there, only marveled at the wonder of natural creation, the sky outside the mountain was cold, the trees were not spring, and the spring in this small valley was actually bright and vibrant.

Mrs. Yan also liked this place very much, she walked around the valley for a while, and then came over and asked Lu Yu: "Brother Yu, does anyone else know about this place besides us?" ”

Lu Yu shook his head and said, "It should be gone, and besides, ordinary people can't cross the mountains on all sides and turn in." ”

"That's just as well." Mrs. Yan turned her head to look around again and said, "This is indeed a good place to grow rice, the terrain is flat, and there is water, we can come in and harvest rice in two or three months." ”

Lu Yu also plans to do the same, if he starts sowing now, he will be able to plant seedlings in a month. However, rice is different from corn and soybeans, and it also needs irrigation and fertilization after transplanting, if there are insects, it is necessary to remove insects, and weeds must be pulled out of the field.

The five of them stayed in the valley for a long time, and the Bai couple turned around every corner of the valley before reluctantly going out of the valley with Lu Yu.

Early the next morning, Lu Yu carried the rice seeds into the valley, sowed the rice seeds on the seedlings, and after sowing one side, Lu Yu returned to the village, he had breakfast, and then brought the Yan family into the valley together. The teleportation array has been arranged, and it is very convenient for Lu Yu to enter and exit the valley now.

To sow seeds, you need to take off your shoes and go barefoot into the paddy field, and Yan Jibai doesn't care about the wet mud at all, so he pulls his trouser legs and goes down to the paddy field, and sprinkles the remaining rice seedlings with rice seeds. And Lu Yu wielded a shovel to dig a paddy field on the side.

Sowing is faster, digging is much slower. There are almost ten acres of grassland in the valley, and Lu Yu plans to dig out five or six acres for paddy fields, and the rest of the grassland will not be used, and maybe some cattle and sheep can be raised here in the future.

When I went back to eat at noon, I asked Lu Yu if the valley had a name. Lu Yu said no, and asked Yan Jibai to help get one.

Yan Xi'an rushed to say: "I'll come, I'll come, let me pick the name." ”

Yan Xiding also said: "I will take it, I have the best name." ”

Yan Jibai smiled and said: "Then you two think about it, and see who chooses a name that sounds good and has implications, then use whoever takes it." ”

"I've already figured it out." Yan Xiding said: "The name is Ding'an Valley, how about it?" ”

Lu Yu smiled and said, "That's a good name. Yan Jibai also nodded in approval.

Yan Xi'an had a different opinion, she said: "Ding'an Valley is not good, Anding Valley is better." ”

"Why is your name in front of me, and stability is not as good as Ding'an."

Yan Xi'an glanced at his younger brother: "Nonsense, stability is good, what is Ding'an?" ”

Yan Xiding didn't dare to talk back to his sister anymore, he asked his father for help: "Dad, do you say that Ding'an Valley is better?" ”

"All good. But this valley was discovered by your Uncle Da Yu, and you ask him which name is better. ”

Both siblings turned their heads to look at Lu Yu, wanting to hear him say which name was better.

Lu Yu was very embarrassed, these two guys, he didn't dare to offend either of them. Lu Yu looked at Yan Xi'an, then at Xiding, scratched his head and said, "Why don't you call it Anding Valley?" Xi'an is the older sister, and the name should be in front. ”

"Uncle Da Yu, you are eccentric!"

Lu Yu was very embarrassed: "That's called Ding'an Valley?" ”

"Uncle, do you dare?"

Lu Yu smiled: "Why don't you two guess boxing?" Who wins, listen to whom? Lu Yu suddenly felt that he was too smart, and he was in a hurry to come up with such a good way.

The sisters and brothers had no objection to Lu Yu's proposal, so the two decided to guess the winner.
