The old man was stunned for a long time before he walked over to us, and as he went, he asked the old lady on my back, "Old woman...... This...... What's going on? ”

"I went to the forest in front of me today to find some food, but I came across a herd of wild boars, and my leg was also injured, if I hadn't met this young man, I'm afraid you old thing wouldn't have seen me......"

The old lady patted me on the shoulder and motioned for me to put her down.

It just so happened that the old man had already come over, and before I could put the old lady down, the old man gave up his hand and said very politely: "Thank you for this little friend, great kindness, toothless and unforgettable, come and come, please ......come and sit in the house."

I exchanged a few pleasantries and didn't say anything more.

As he spoke, the old man took the old lady off me, carefully examined the old lady's wound, and said with some complaint: "You old woman has injuries on her body, I told you not to move around, but you didn't listen, now it's okay, if it weren't for this little friend's rescue, you really wouldn't be able to come back......"

Although he complained a little, the old man still helped the old lady into the thatched hut, and I followed suit.

The furnishings in this thatched hut are very simple, all the furniture is handmade, even the tea bowls on the table are bamboo tubes, except for an iron kettle for boiling water and an iron pot for cooking.

It seems that the couple is living an ascetic-like life.

When I entered the room, and everyone was seated, the old man couldn't wait to ask me how I got here.

I told the old lady again the reason I was about to tell her.

The old man didn't suspect that there was a fake, but nodded silently.

At this time, when the old man and the old lady were standing together, I discovered a particularly interesting thing, this couple looked at least ninety years old, and their faces were wrinkled, like sun-dried orange peels, but their hair was as black as ink, darker than mine, which inevitably made me feel a little strange.

After chatting for a while, the old man was busy making me tea, and I reached out to bring it, but before I could drink it, I felt a fresh fragrance in my nose, which made people feel refreshed.

The old lady explained: "This tea is a wild tea grown in this valley, and the water is mountain spring water, but it has its own taste, and there is nothing good to entertain the benefactor, I hope you will forgive ......."

"The old man is polite, don't say anything about the benefactor or not, I didn't make much effort, all the credit is the flame unicorn beast next to me, besides, this kind of thing, if other people see it, they won't sit idly by." I said modestly.

However, the old man said: "Don't say that, those wild boars, the old man has dealt with them before, they are very vicious, and the number is not a few. ”

I smiled slightly, and didn't answer, just took a sip of the tea, and suddenly felt that my lips and teeth were fragrant, and it was a good tea in the world.

"Good tea!" I couldn't say enough.

The old man smiled slightly, and said: "I think it's delicious, Xiaoyou will drink a little more, wild tea in the mountains, can't climb any elegant hall, our husband and wife have lived in this valley for decades, hard practice, haven't seen anyone for a long time, Xiaoyou can come, we are also very happy." ”

As he spoke, the old man glanced at the old lady beside him and said, "Old woman, seeing that you haven't come for a long time, I have prepared the ingredients and am preparing to cook. ”

The old lady answered, and stood up.

I hurriedly put down the tea in my hand and said, "I can't help it...... I can't help it, the old man has a leg injury, and it's inconvenient to move more, and I have something to eat and drink with me, so I won't bother the two of you......"

"It's okay, I'm ready for everything, just get off the pot, meet Xiaoyou for the first time, just like old friends, let the old woman cook, how about we have a good chat?" The old man smiled slightly.

It's hard to resist, and I can't postpone it, the old lady has already turned around and limped outside, and it really makes me a little upset to look at it.

After the old lady left, I chatted briefly with the old man.

He first asked me about my background, and I repeated to him what I had said to the old lady.

Half-truths, I naturally didn't tell him about the fact that I came here to learn skills, but just said that I came here to get something.

Then, I asked about the situation of the two of them, and it was similar to what the old lady said, and I got his surname, and the old man said that his surname was Fu, and he moved here when the Anti-Japanese War broke out, and he had gone out of this valley once or twice, and found that the outside had already been turned upside down, and the changes were too great, and he was not suitable for the outside life at all, so he moved in here again, and did not plan to leave here.

The old man asked me the most about my background, and I was always vague and didn't dare to reveal too much.

After about an hour, it was completely dark, and the old lady said that the meal was ready.

The old man answered, and immediately went out, bringing up the prepared meals one by one, during which I also went over to help.

This food is also fresh, but some of them I can't put down, I see a whole plate of fried half-baked insects, and some things that resemble plant rhizomes, I can't say what it is, even the old bacon stewed in the big bowl, there are all kinds of insects floating on it, as soon as I see this, my mind immediately comes to the perfect tonic soup that my grandfather made for me.

I haven't eaten this thing for a long time, but I don't have much appetite for it now.

When the old couple had finished eating, they beckoned me to sit around the round table.

The warm hospitality of the people, I can't lose the courtesy, and immediately took out some food from the eight treasures of Qiankun, put it on the wooden table, and beckoned the two old people to eat together.

I found vacuum-packed pig ears, grilled chicken, some ham sausages and bread, and two bottles of good wine from them.

I thought that the two old men should be a little surprised to see that I had come up with so many things from the Eight Treasures of Qiankun as if they were doing tricks, but they were very indifferent to this matter, but they were very interested in the delicious things I brought out.
