Chapter 26: Eyebrows and Lovers
Bai Fengjiu opened his eyes slightly, and found that he was actually in the cave, and when he saw Mu Li, he gradually remembered his current situation.
"It's like a dream. ”
"So I'm going to keep an eye on you so that I never wake up. ”
"No shame!"
Bai Fengjiu glanced at Mu Li, which made Mu Li's mouth dry for a while.
"Ahem...... When I came out, I didn't prepare dry food, so we packed up and went to find some wild fruits. ”
"Where are we now? ”
"It's about a thousand miles north of Hanye City. ”
"Then let's continue on our way, we should be able to get to Bai Ze Township before noon, and we can prepare some dry food there. ”
"It's up to you. ”
Above the sky, Mu Li, sitting on the back of the snow, comfortably enjoyed the oncoming autumn breeze.
It was obviously the autumn breeze in September, but Mu Li felt a strong spring in this autumn breeze that should have been bleak.
"Where's the little beast that followed you?"
When he left the cave, Mu Li wanted to release Mu Xiaobai, but found that this guy was still sleeping in the beast bag.
"That's my brother, hehe, just let him meet his sister-in-law. ”
Mu Li released Mu Xiaobai as he spoke.
The little one was still sleeping, his furry body clumped together, and he got rid of a white hairball.
"It's so cute, what's his name. ”
Mu Xiaobai, who was taken out of the beast bag by Mu Li, was in a daze when he heard a female voice, and when he opened his eyes, Mu Xiaobai seemed to feel dazzled, and rubbed his eyes with his furry little paws.
After making sure that he was not mistaken, Mu Xiaobai said in surprise:
"Wow, Mu Li, you actually kidnapped her out. ”
Seeing Mu Xiaobai's exaggerated appearance, Mu Li laughed and said:
"That's not called crutches, she's your sister-in-law now. ”
"Well, sister-in-law, sister-in-law is good. ”
Obviously, Mu Xiaobai hadn't found out that Mu Li was taking advantage of him, or he didn't know that only his brother's wife would be called a sister-in-law among brothers.
At this moment, Mu Xiaobai said in his heart:
"Later, when the ethnic group was found, Lao Tzu also found a sister-in-law for Mu Li. ”
Above the sky, the three of them rode on the back of Cangxue, Mu Li hugged Bai Fengjiu, and Bai Fengjiu held Mu Xiaobai all the way and laughed all the way.
Happy times always pass quickly, and when you come to see a small village on the edge of the water.
The smoke rising from the village is particularly evident in this endless plain.
"Look, that's Bai Zexiang. ”
Bai Fengjiu stretched out his green jade and pointed to Mu Li and pointed to the small village in the distance.
Mu Li rode the snow down from the sky, but the villagers who were still working in Bai Ze Township only glanced at Mu Li lightly, and continued to work with their heads down.
In the eyes of this group of ordinary people, a monk like Mu Li is undoubtedly a fairy-like existence, and there is nothing curious about it after seeing too much.
Mu Li put away the snow and followed Bai Fengjiu into Bai Ze Township.
Bai Fengjiu came to a wonton shop in the township.
Although the shop is small, it is fully equipped, and the tables and chairs in the store are made of tree stumps.
The little second brother in the store was stunned for a moment when he saw Bai Fengjiu, and then asked:
"Miss Fengjiu, your veil ......"
Bai Fengjiu shyly grabbed Mu Li beside him, and everything was silent.
When the little second brother saw this scene, a trace of loss flashed in his eyes, and he soon said with a smile:
"It's just in time, there's only one table left in the shop, please come here. ”
There are only five tables made of tree stumps of different sizes in this small shop, but it seems that Bai Fengjiu often comes here from the attitude of the little second brother.
After Bai Fengjiu sat down, he said to the little second brother:
"As usual, double servings. ”
"Okay, you guys wait a minute. ”
Xiao Er shook the white towel in his hand and put it on his shoulder, turned around and walked towards the stove on the side.
Although the shop is small, even the stove is outside, but there is no loud noise in the store, and even the small second pass dishes go to the stove.
"Mu Li, you are the first person to come and eat wontons with me. ”
Mu Li stretched out his hand to wrap his arms around Bai Fengjiu's fragrant shoulders and said:
"I haven't eaten it in four years. ”
"Are you curious about my relationship with that little second brother? ”
Mu Li didn't deny it, just smiled and said:
"There's nothing to be curious about, if you want to say it, you'll say it naturally. ”
"I saw Aunt Chen making wontons on the stove, and she was also the mother of the little second brother just now.
Two years ago, Xiao Cui and I were on our way back from a treasure house in another city, and we happened to meet his family who had been robbed, leaving only his mother and sister in the carriage.
After saving their mother and daughter, they came to the nearest Bai Ze Township, where her sister was too seriously injured to be saved.
Less than a month later, he appeared. ”
Seeing that Bai Fengjiu's expression was a little sad, when Li Chen was about to speak, the little second brother took a plate of spiced dried tofu and put it on the table.
"Eat this first, and the wontons will be ready in no time. ”
Without waiting for the little second brother to say anything else, the guests at the table next to him began to greet the little second brother.
The little second brother didn't notice Bai Fengjiu's sad expression, he just thought that Bai Fengjiu was still shy, he smiled, turned around and walked towards the table over there.
"Don't look at this guy's hippie smile, his talent is actually no worse than mine, and even the chance is not small.
When he appeared, Xiuwei was already in the Ninghu Realm, but since he followed Aunt Chen, he never showed his cultivation, and it was at that time that he became hippie and smiling, and he was a cold person when he saw him for the first time. ”
Li Chen looked at the busy figure of the little second brother and nodded secretly.
What people need most in this life is not necessarily the infinite scenery of indomitable progress, and it seems to be a good choice to spend a life with the people they care about.
However, it seems that the second brother, who is only seventeen or eighteen years old, chose to accompany his mother to fulfill his filial piety, and outsiders may think that his life may have passed so mediocre and mediocre, with regret and heartache.
But Li Chen knows that only after a hundred years, when Aunt Chen dies, can the second brother put down the burden on his body and go to the world easily, and there will be no regrets and guilt in his heart, let alone feel that these days are wasted.
If you haven't experienced the life and death of your loved ones, maybe no matter how high your cultivation is, you can't experience the helplessness of wanting to support your son but not waiting for your relatives.
Two bowls of hot wontons were quickly served, and after thanking the little second brother, Li Chen rubbed Bai Fengjiu's head and said:
"Eat, it's not good if it's cold for a while, don't you see that the little second brother and Aunt Chen are also very happy now.
My grandfather once told me that the most important thing is to be happy, so don't be depressed. ”
"Hmm. ”
Bai Fengjiu smiled, then took the spoon on the table and drank the wonton soup in small sips.
Li Chen saw that Bai Fengjiu's smile was a little reluctant, so he said:
"It's a big deal, let's mix it up in the future, help the little second brother, your friend is not my friend, okay, don't be unhappy." ”
"Good. ”
Hot wontons, thin skin, filling, clear soup, high-grade spirit animal meat, unique recipe, coupled with Aunt Chen's craftsmanship, Mu Li ate three bowls in one go before stopping.
