Chapter 18: Overnight at a Farmhouse
After some tossing, it was already dark, and Zhong Xingyue didn't know where it was, so she had to drag the body of the big snake to the nearest village.
It was inconvenient to see people in the air, so he entered the star picking field.
There are no big roads between the ridges, only some dirt roads that the people have leveled themselves, and the roads are bumpy, potholes, and muddy marks left by rainy days, which increases the difficulty of dragging the big snake.
Zhong Xingyue secretly decided that when she had enough spirit stones to spend, she must buy a storage bag of her own!
Even the smallest capacity!
Approaching the village, he saw the dim light hidden in the wall behind the tree, and the fragrance of rice slowly blew into Zhong Xingyue's nose with the cool evening breeze.
Her stomach gurgled and growled.
In the afternoon, I worked hard and killed a snake, and now I am very hungry.
Entering the village, there were dogs barking and barking, and with the barking of several dogs, the village seemed to be more lively.
The night in June didn't relieve much of the heat, but because of the intermittent night breeze outside, it was much cooler than in the room, so every family set up tables and chairs in the yard, and ate dinner in the yard, and some young people even had to spread a cloth in the yard to sleep.
Hearing his dog barking, a young man immediately opened the door and came out to take a look outside.
"Ahh
The man was a little surprised to see Zhong Xingyue, after all, a little girl rarely goes out alone, but when he saw a black thing lying on the ground behind her, he was startled.
What is that? It can't be a python!
"I'm from Dehua County, Yuanshou Prefecture, and I'm going to study in the national capital, and I'm passing through here halfway, because I saw a water snake demon beast in the lake not far away, so I killed it to prevent it from coming out to make waves and harm the people in the future, this big brother, it's getting late now, can I rest here for the night?"
I also cleaned it up easily, and prevented it from harming the people, I really put gold on my face!
This kid is thick-skinned, and he doesn't blush when he lies.
Kongkong pouted in the Star Picking Field, thinking to himself, it was not as thick-skinned as her.
The man was in his twenties, and when he was bold, when he heard Zhong Xingyue's words, he immediately asked,
"The monster you're talking about, but it's from that pond on the south side?"
"Exactly. ”
The man was overjoyed, the previous beast was no less harmful, eating the little grandson of the old Sun family, and the two cows of the old Liu family...... No one dared to go to the edge of the pond.
The farmers were counting on the pond for irrigation, and the arrival of this animal completely ruined their cultivation.
Everyone is having a headache, but I didn't expect someone to solve it, isn't this a great joy!
"Benefactor, benefactor, please come in. ”
Zhong Xingyue was a little hesitant, this man was only in his twenties, and he didn't look like he was in charge of the house, this kind of accommodation was best agreed by the family, and if there was anything important in their family, they had to ask Zhong Huaiyuan.
How can a farmer be so exquisite, a boy can be an adult at the age of twelve, but Zhong Xingyue doesn't know.
"Big brother, do you want to ask your family, I'm... It's presumptuous..."
While the two were talking, several people had already come out, and they were chattering and asking, and the man repeated everything Zhong Xingyue said to them again.
Just like the man's reaction, the others were also very excited when they heard it, and they rushed to pull Zhong Xingyue to their house, and a few brave young people walked behind Zhong Xingyue curiously, holding torches to observe the body of the big snake.
The man's father heard the noise outside, so he also opened the door and came out, and after listening to his son's explanation, he respectfully walked to Zhong Xingyue.
"Girl, we happen to have a room at home, and dinner is about to be ready, so it's just right for you to come to us, and it's not a hassle at all. ”
This man is in his forties and should be the head of his family, Zhong Xingyue readily agreed.
It is better to have something to eat and a place to live at night than to sleep outside hungry, and the empty guy helped her collect the spirit stones, but did not accept the clothes and dry food in her baggage, so she couldn't even change her clothes, so she could only wear this skirt stained with snake blood, and there was no dry food to eat.
"Thank you, uncle. She replied sweetly
"Little girl, how did you catch this big snake, it looks so scary. ”
Someone held a torch and circled around the big snake and asked curiously.
"Yes, yes, girl, how can you beat a demon beast with such a small body?"
A middle-aged woman asked lovingly with a look of pity.
"Because I'm cultivating, and it just so happens that my cultivation is higher than it, so it's not difficult to catch it. Zhong Xingyueyun said lightly
Pretending to be forced~
A certain empty scolding in the star field.
"Ah, I didn't expect you to be a monk, girl, it's amazing. ”
"Hehe..." Hearing the shouts of thanks and praise from the crowd, Zhong Xingyue couldn't help but touch her nose, with a smile on the corner of her mouth that couldn't be hidden.
Look, there are good people and good things in the world, and there are bright and happy things in the world, and the unpleasant things that we encountered before do not represent everything.
Therefore, when you meet a bad person, you will deal with him with the means of a bad person, and when you meet a good person, you will treat him as a good person.
Don't take the initiative to cause trouble, but when others provoke themselves, they can't be too forbearant and stealing, the world is good and bad, and you must observe it with flexible eyes.
Zhong Xingyue repeatedly declined their invitation, and then smiled and followed the father and son into their courtyard, and she placed the body of the big snake at the door.
"Girl, I cooked millet porridge tonight, and fried cucumbers, you wait, I'll let my insider kill a chicken." "The middle-aged man is very enthusiastic.
"Don't," Zhong Xingyue hurriedly stopped him, "My teeth can't eat anything lately, just drink porridge, and the others can't bite out." ”
was thrown by that big snake, and now Zhong Xingyue feels like he has a mouth full of dentures.
"Really?"
"Really, I bit the rope and it hurts. ”
The middle-aged man didn't say anything anymore and brought her a bowl of porridge.
Almost half of the rice grains were given to Zhong Xingyue, and the other people's bowls naturally only had very thin rice soup left.
The atmosphere in the small courtyard of the farmhouse was very good, and in the middle of the night, the middle-aged man's seventy-year-old father and his little grandson all returned to the house, and Zhong Xingyue and the rest of the people laid bunks in the courtyard.
Originally, they asked Zhong Xingyue to sleep in the house, but she felt that it was novel, and if she had to sleep outside, they could only let her go.
"The stars in the sky are so beautiful, well, the stars in the star field are even better, and I will always have to go to other planets to see them in the future!
