What's more, Tan Shurun thought that after all, she had received the blessing of food and clothing from Rome, and had promised that Rome would consider it, and now Rome had personally invited her to participate in the sacrifice again...... After refuting the face, it seems that Roma's hospitality is also very hurt.

After hesitating again and again, Tan Shurun finally hummed and said, "Then wait a while, let's go." ”

……

At the same time, in the treehouse deep in the dense forest, in the air, hundreds of birds chirp in unison, singing ethereally, people are noisy, and laughter is blowing into the house through the windows with the wind; The fragrance of flowers spreading from the horizontal platform, wrapped in a very light blood qi, stimulates the man's nerves little by little.

The man on the bed, moving his little finger, wrapped tightly in gauze, was very weak at first, almost imperceptible if he didn't pay attention, but as time passed, the slightest pull would pull the muscle nerves at the wound, bringing a tearing pain.

However, the man did not pause, and tried again and again, and in the process of trying, looking for the source of the force that had been hooked on his little finger not long ago.

The range of movements grew larger and larger, until finally, the man clenched his fists.

……

In a coma that he didn't know how long it was, he felt imprisoned in a wasteland, barren and desolate, and bright red magma rolling.

In the void, someone kept pinching him in the palm of his hand and throwing him into the air.

The man was condescending, grinning at the corners of his mouth, looking at him with disdain and disdain, watching him fall into the abyss, and the laughter was endless.

The body is constantly falling downwards and constantly crashing into the blackened. Rocks, sharp stone protrusions pierced the back, and the ensuing bones shattered, and the clicking sound was unexpectedly clear and loud, and the throat was instantly blocked by the blood spreading from the chest.

In this black wasteland, he can't do anything about what happens.

However, in despair and helplessness, a beam of light suddenly pierced through the darkness, pierced through the eyes of the hideous ghosts, sharp as knives, and slashed through the black mist around the wasteland, and came to him.

Gentle, mischievous, swirling around him, and at the same time, a gentle voice sounded in his ears......

"Ah Yue~ I found that there is a mysterious Qing clan on the Chunqing Mountain in Nanjing City, and the people of the Qing clan are very kind and hospitable."

"Ah Yue, I found that the people in the village are very long-lived, the oldest is a Sam grandmother, but she is not confused at all, she is still clear and clear in her eighties, and she is more ingenious than the young people~; Also, Grandma Sam has a little granddaughter named Kiki, who is smart and lively, but, for some reason, Kiki seems to have been very hostile to me since we met. Hmph~"

"Haha~~Haha~ Ah Yue, do you remember the little black python that has been following us since it fell into the water? The patriarch of Loma gave the little black python a name, which not only covers the 5,000-year-long civilization history of China, but also is extremely easy to understand! Hahaha, guess what? Forget it, I'll just say okay, the little black python is called Xiao Hei~~Hahaha~~"

"Patriarch Loma and Roma have begun to collect herbs from all over the mountains again, trying to find a better remedy to help you heal your wounds. I'll follow you into the mountains tomorrow, and I don't think I'll be able to accompany you for two or three days, you know? ”

"Oh my God! Grandma Sam's cooking skills are so good, I held a bowl bigger than my basin today, and I took a spoon to eat directly, and I was mercilessly laughed at by Kiki! Ah Yue~ If you wake up, I'm afraid it will be a little chubby when you see it~ What can I do, should I lose weight? ”

……

The little girl was in his ear every day, tirelessly telling him the trivial things in life, one by one, always trying to say it humorously and funny, but for so long, he understood and accepted his fate.

Humorous and funny, it's not about talking about books.

"Ah Yue, can you hear me? I miss you so much......"

……

He couldn't move, he couldn't respond, but he could hear everything she said, including when she was so sad that she burst into tears.

However...... After struggling for a long time, after all, I couldn't breathe, I couldn't comfort, I couldn't say to her, I'm fine, I'm fine, you be good, don't cry.

Until recently......

He was finally able to clench his hands into fists, thinking, according to the latest plot broadcast of that little woman, it should be time for her to recognize the patriarch of Loma as a master and study pharmacology, oh, by the way, today is the harvest sacrifice of the Qing clan, she seems to say, Roma invited her to participate in the ceremony together.

The eyelids opened a slit slightly, and when she looked around, she was not there, the room was empty, and there was no warmth and peace when she spoke in her ear.

Yue Yue got up and got out of bed, the broken ribs and flesh had not yet fully grown, and as he moved, there was a great pain in his limbs, but he ignored all this and walked towards the door by himself.

He couldn't wait, 'I want to see her', three words, just a weightless thought, but they weighed heavily on his heart, with a sense of urgency that even ten thousand catties of boulders did not have, quietly tormenting him, almost pulling him into the devil.

……

Grandma Sam's treehouse is at the highest point on the mountain where the Qing people temporarily live, the mountain road is rugged, along the way, Tan Shurun almost used his hands and feet, and Rome helped on the side, so he climbed to Grandma Sam's treehouse with great difficulty.

From afar, Tan Shurun could smell the fragrance around the room, and when she and Rome entered the tree house, the fragrance of flowers in the air became even stronger.

When the flood came, the people didn't have time to pack up their things, and Grandma Sam's incense-making tools were also lost, but for this harvest sacrifice, Grandma Sam thought that she could make the purest incense, so she specially re-carved some incense-making tools that were lost in the flood.

At this time, the tools were neatly arranged in the center of the house, and among them, there was a clay pot that Grandma Sam had made with her own hands when the sky was clear a few days ago. The clay plates have long been dried and put back for preparation, and they are listed on the ground one by one for today's most important incense making.

"Help grandma sift and wash all the flowers and leaves and put them in their respective pots."

Grandma Sam smiled kindly, not at all because Tan Shurun was a guest, and Rome was the future patriarch, so she was polite, and as soon as she saw the two of them enter the door, she directly called them to start working.

Tan Shurun was fortunate to see the secret skills of the Qing people's incense beads, even though he was panting at this time, he was also looking forward to it and eager to try. She nodded, rolled up her sleeves, carried the mud basin and the sack full of herbs and spices, leaned down earnestly, squatted on the ground and began to get busy.

……

The flowers and leaves that Grandma Sam said are mostly rosemary, marjoram, lavender, mint, and sage, which are common spices in the mountains.

"These, often worn, are indeed good for the body, but if it's sage, when you mix it later, try to add as little as possible, too much, and it will accumulate in the body after smelling it for a long time, which is not good." Grandma Sam explained carefully.

Tan Shurun listened, nodding his head from time to time, and chatting with Rome, and after a while, Rome asked her if she knew what was once recognized as the best incense.

Tan Shurun didn't think much about it, and replied directly: "'Ganan', right?" ”

"That's right! You know a lot! Roma laughed.

Tan Shurun scratched his head embarrassedly, and continued to work on the spices in his hand, these spices were not carefully processed when picked, and as soon as Tan Shurun committed obsessive-compulsive disorder, he had to remove all the buds and stamens, and arrange them on the plate one by one.

In the smoky room, except for the rustling of sifting spices, Tan Shurun realized that something was staring at her in the darkness behind her.

The feeling of being secretly missed is really not good, Tan Shurun turned his head, and looked at the line of sight that stared at her, who knows, but he collided with Qiqi at the source, and Tan Shurun's heart suddenly chuckled.

Tan Shurun has seen this kind of look several times, it is obviously gentle and harmless, but the resentment hidden in the bottom of her eyes makes people shudder, she can't help but reflect on herself, whether she offended Qiqi when she didn't know, otherwise, Qiqi's unfriendliness would be too inexplicable.

"Humph! Pretending! Gestures! Pose! Method in my madness!!!! Kiki was dismissive.

Someone next to her thought it was funny that the little girl was pouting and angry, so he approached Kiki and asked her why she suddenly read the idiom.

"Are we Kiki working so hard? I've never seen you love learning so much before! What's going on lately? ”

"I'm not happy! Get up on the wrong side of the bed! Hum! Kiki raised her eyebrows, glared at Tan Shurun angrily, and then stopped talking, even the big girls and little aunts next to her kept making her laugh, and they didn't pay attention.

This time, I was even more confused when I pricked up my ears and was ready to listen to the original talk.

And in the corner of the right-hand side that Tan Shurun didn't notice, Rome glanced at Kiki depressedly, pursed his lips, and secretly thought about the next plan, whether to inform Kiki, otherwise this little girl's temper will come up, and there will be more than enough success.

……

The episode was small and was quickly ignored by Tan Shurun.

In this room, Tan Shurun and Roma continued to get busy; Over there, Grandma Sam first took out the black charcoal and put it inside the earthen stove, lit it, and then put the iron pot on the earthen stove, and soon, after the black charcoal was ignited, there was a burst of wood fragrance and hazy smoke.

After a while, Tan Shurun and Roma also sorted out the spices, and squatted beside them with great interest, watching Grandma Sam go about his business.

Everyone was busy, and there was no time to rest at any time, and suddenly, Kiki shouted to talk about Shurun.

"Books!"

Before the words fell, before Tan Shurun could react, there was another Kiki beside her, squatting beside her, and pushing Rome's elbow away. Rome was discussing with Tan Shurun about going up the mountain tomorrow to continue picking herbs to boil medicine for Yue Yue, when he was suddenly pushed and staggered to the corner of the wall, and was very depressed for a moment.

He glanced at Tan Shurun, Tan Shurun was inexplicable, and he almost couldn't help but spread his hands.

This situation is not only surprised, but also more terrifying, Tan Shurun noticed the weight of his hand, looked down at Qiqi's cordially held arm, exhaled, and asked carefully: "Ah? You call me? What's the matter? ”

Kiki was very enthusiastic, shook her arms, and was affectionately coquettish, as if she hated it a few minutes ago, and wanted to pinch her neck and pull her hair with Tan Shurun, and the girl who came to the century was not her.

"Shushu, have you ever seen how to make incense before?"

"Before, was it?"

Tan Shurun asked rhetorically, but after the voice fell, he was stunned for a long time and couldn't speak.

For her, rummaging through the memories of her previous life is about embarrassing herself.

……

Restrained the idea of reminiscence, talked about the book and lowered his eyes, and replied casually, "I have tried the method of distillation and purification, but it is the first time I have seen it by baking fire and incense." ”

"I'll just say, Shushu must know something, look at the way you handle spices just now, skillful and fast, I guess Shushu may know more things in making incense than us! What did books do before? I heard Roma say that there are very few people out there who really understand incense and incense making......"

Qiqi's words were yin and yang, even though Tan Shurun didn't want to think about it, he could hear that something was wrong.

What does Kiki want to do? Or rather, what exactly is Kiki trying to ask?

Tan Shurun raised his eyes, but found that at some point, the eyes in the room were all focused on her, and for a while, she didn't know how to continue.

She hesitated again and again, and finally felt that being speechless was the best choice for everyone at the moment.

"Shushu, I'm so curious, you know so much about incense making, you must have worked hard before, if it has nothing to do with work, is it a hobby? Or for other reasons! Kiki was surprised, "Shushu, your tone just now sounds very storyful, tell us about it!" ”

Tan Shurun: "......"

Her tone couldn't be more normal, where did you hear it! I'm going to smash the table, hey!

……

In the tree house, the big girls and little aunts almost all gathered here because of today's incense making, at this time all the attention was attracted by Qiqi's words to Tan Shurun's body, there have been no outsiders in the clan for a long time, this time two came at once, not to mention, Tan Shurun and Yue Yue's appearance is extremely special and vigorous, and to this day, they know, and only know Tan Shurun's name.

Curiosity could not be stifled, and it was now clear that they had been stirred up a tsunami-like curiosity.

One of the little aunts had a bold personality and simply asked, "Xiaoshu, where do you live?" How many people are there in the family? ”

Luckily, fortunately... No longer continued to ask about the incense making, and after sighing continuously, Tan Shurun was not relieved, but he heard someone continue.

"Little books are reading books now? Or go to work? What kind of major? Having trouble finding a job? ”

"Hey, ask what you're doing, ask if you have someone you like, if you're married, it's serious!" The man turned to Tan Shurun and said with a smile: "Do you have any children?" The one dressed in black, isn't it your man? ”

These questions that will be turned on by relatives and friends in accordance with the practice of China during the New Year's holidays, two lives, in the war family, have never enjoyed such a sweet burden of talking about books, but I feel that the 'happiness' at this moment came too suddenly.

The confused Tan Shurun looked at Grandma Sam and asked for help silently, but who knew that Grandma Sam, who had always been unearthly in her eyes, was busy with her hands, paused, and turned her head and looked at her curiously.

Looking at Roma again, Roma said, 'Who am I?' Where am I? What am I doing? 's ignorant expression.

Tan Shurun immediately regretted it, it was better to deny it directly just now, and save the follow-up of these messes.

……

rummaging through the memories of the past, it is like digging the past and wishful thinking buried deep in my heart with a sharp shovel, and that humble her, at this moment, seems to be pulled out and exposed to the sun, ashes, dead and dead.

Is there a story behind incense making? Yes, indeed.

Tan Shurun suddenly remembered that Zhan Huan didn't like the smell of sizing and washing clothes and detergents, and he had to go through the incense process, but most of the incense on the market contained chemical reagents, and Zhan Huan picked fat and thin, and finally ended up with a crazy maid, and depressed his own fate.

When she was young, a touch of youth on the tip of her heart was as bright as spring, and a trace of haze in the corners of her eyes could cause her distress.

What's more, the clothes are uncomfortable to wear, which is a big annoyance.

She still remembers how she collected spices countless times, distilled and purified them, and tried them again and again, and finally tried out a taste that the teenager liked.

Kiki tilted her head and looked at Tan Shurun, and behind her Rama ripped off her clothes and warned her not to move an inch, but Kiki ignored it completely, mysteriously leaned into Tan Shurun's ear, and said mysteriously and excitedly: "Shushu, you have a secret!" ”

Secret? Is the young man she once offered her true heart a secret in her heart?

No, that gentle young man is trash, he has long been disgusted by Zhan Huan, and he turned around and threw it away.

"I know a person, and the clothes have to be incense before they can be put on......" Tan Shurun smiled, his smile was full of helplessness, "but the incense on the market is not very suitable for him, so I have tried to make incense and incense a few times, ......"

"And what about the end? Is it called out? ”

Someone was busy wanting to know the result, Tan Shurun nodded, "It's out." ”

Incense, wedding dresses, embarrassing weddings, the groom who does not hesitate to leave as night falls......

The room was silent, and Grandma Sam glanced at Romma, who was hiding in the shadows of the corner with most of her body, and then looked at the little book, and beckoned: "Little book, since you have experience, then come here, help me with the handle, and bring the rosemary with me by the way." ”

Before everyone came back to their senses, Tan Shurun took out the hand in Kiki's arms, held the clay pot filled with small beige flowers, got up and followed Grandma Sam's words, walked to her side, and changed the subject without a trace: "Grandma Sam, how can you help?" ”

"Can't you see that? Grandma wants you to do it! Wait a minute, just do what Grandma tells you to do! Books ~ Are you stupid? ”

The girl arrived before the sound, delicate and lively, with a light milk fragrance wafting through the tip of her nose, she sat down next to Tan Shurun, squeezed between her and Grandma Sam, squinted her eyes and smiled happily: "Grandma Sam's hand is fragrant, but it is a unique job!" You're lucky to be able to watch so closely! Just watch it later, it will definitely surprise you! ”

“……？？？”

Tan Shurun took advantage of the glimmer of the charcoal fire to look at the girl's red face, full of collagen, squinting and smiling at her. Talking about books and being depressed, she didn't talk to her, what is this little girl trying to do today? Awkward chat?
