This night, Nanyutang and Nan Huaijin were full of thoughts in their hearts, and they couldn't sleep.

It was spring, and the night in Linxia Mountain was still a little cold. The cold wind knocked on the window, and the grandfather and grandson gradually fell asleep with the sound of the wind.

Nothing was said all night.

As soon as the sky was bright, the night had not faded, and the sky was still a little dark, Nan Huaijin woke up.

Opening his somewhat hazy eyes, Nan Huaijin found that he woke up a little earlier than usual, maybe he was going back to Laifu Town today, and he was a little excited in his heart.

Although she got up earlier, Nan Huaijin sat up for the first time and began to get dressed. After three years of changes, Nan Huaijin, who is still not very old, no longer has the habit of lying in bed.

After Nan Huaijin got up, she went to the stream next to the house and washed her face. The cool water of the early spring hit the face, completely eliminating the last trace of sleepiness.

When I returned to the thatched hut, I found that my grandfather, Nanyutang, had already dressed and started to prepare breakfast.

Nanyutang has always woken up quite early, and when people reach old age, they don't want to sleep as much as they did when they were young, and their sleep is also very shallow. So after Nan Huaijin got up, Nanyutang, who felt movement around him, also woke up.

Seeing this, Nan Huaijin also went over to help her grandfather Nanyutang make breakfast together. In this way, the two made breakfast.

After breakfast, the grandfather and grandson began to pack their luggage.

Three years is enough time to change something. The thatched huts, which used to be a little empty, are now a little crowded.

The corners of the house were piled with the furs of wild beasts, the result of three years of accumulation. There are also some sun-dried mountain ginseng, yellow essence and other medicinal materials hanging on the beams of the house.

The grandfather and grandson packed two large bags of luggage before they gave up. Both of them are used to living a hard life, so they are very frugal. When I see this, I want to take it away, and when I see that, I want to take it back.

The so-called three-year-old looks big, seven-year-old looks old. This kind of life since childhood had a deep impact on the young Nan Huaijin.

After he stepped into the cultivation realm, he left behind the legend of the goose plucking, which also has a lot to do with it.

Back to the grandfather and grandson, the two of them packed up for more than an hour before reluctantly leaving.

Nanyudo stopped when he walked to the mouth of the small valley. Seeing this, Nan Huaijin also stopped.

Looking at the familiar scenery in front of him, Nanyutang was full of emotion for a while. Some nostalgia, some reluctance. If nothing else, he may never come here again in this life.

Nan Huaijin on the side also sighed a little. When his grandfather brought him here three years ago, he was a chubby little kid. Nothing to understand. Now, although he is not big, only nine years old, he can already fight with the most ferocious beasts in Lin Xia Mountain.

Among them, the biggest harvest in the past three years is undoubtedly the chaotic mountain knife technique taught by grandpa. With a chaotic mountain knife in one hand, the beasts and ghosts are worried.

Of course, Nan Huaijin was also very reluctant, this small valley was sprinkled with his sweat everywhere, and there were traces left by his practice of swordsmanship everywhere. Except for the old mansion of the Nan family, this is the place where he stayed for the longest time in his short life.

"Let's go. Nanyutang sighed slightly in his heart and said.

"Hmm. Nan Huaijin came back to his senses and responded.

The grandfather and grandson took a step forward and re-embarked on the road home.

At this time, a glimmer of light had just appeared on the horizon, and ten thousand rays of light exploded. The scenery is picturesque, but the grandfather and grandson did not notice this, and they are burying their heads in the road.

After all, the two big burdens are still quite heavy, and where do you care about the scenery.

Leaving the small valley, the grandfather and grandson entered the forest. As soon as they entered the forest, the grandfather and grandson began to be cautious. It's a paradise for wild beasts.

Although there are fewer wild beasts after the grandfather and grandson have hunted here for three years, compared with the total number of wild beasts in the mountains, it is still a drop in the bucket.

The speed of the hunting of the two is far from keeping up with the speed of the reproduction of wild beasts. Wild wolves, in particular, have five or six of them in each litter, and if there is enough food, each of them can grow into a real hunter.

Returning home is different from the usual hunting, and hunting is not the purpose of this trip. Therefore, the grandfather and grandson chose some paths that were rarely visited by wild beasts, for fear of encountering fierce beasts and starting a bitter battle.

Fortunately, the luck of the grandfather and grandson was not bad, and the two of them carried a big burden in the forest like thieves, turning around and turning around, and did not encounter a single beast.

After half a day of running, the grandfather and grandson finally walked out of the forest.

After walking out of the forest, the two couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Cautiously in the forest, for fear of encountering wild beasts, now that he has come out, he naturally relaxes.

It was a long journey ahead, but the grandfather and grandson didn't feel tired. Although they were carrying a large burden, the joy of going home made them feel that their luggage had become much lighter.

Of course, pleasure is temporary. Near noon, the grandfather and grandson stopped. One is to have lunch, and the other is to rest the tired body.

After lunch, I rested for a while. The two got up and hurried again.

The sun hung high in the sky, scattering a large amount of sunlight without hesitation. However, the grandfather and grandson did not feel the sun at all, after all, the early spring sun is not poisonous.

On the contrary, bathed in the early spring sun, people are a little lazy.

Finally, Laifu Town appeared in the field of vision of the grandfather and grandson.

The sun also set over time, and now only one tail is left in the sky.

Looking at Laifu Town reflected in the sunset, the grandfather and grandson were a little excited. It's been three years, and it's been three years since they've left, and now they're finally back.

Still entering the town from the East City Gate, the guards are a little lazy, and Laifu Town is not a major town, not to mention the bandits around, and there are not even gangs. So the guards all pretend to get by.

However, when the grandfather and grandson entered the city, the interrogation of the grandfather and grandson was a little more cumbersome than that of others. The two of them carried such a large burden, and there were hunting knives in it, even if the guards did not act, they carefully examined it.

After all, if something goes wrong, they're going to fuck off. The guards are still a good errand, and they don't want to lose this job.

Anyway, the grandfather and grandson finally returned to Laifu Town.

Looking at the familiar scenes around them, both grandfather and grandson had a special feeling in their hearts. For a moment there was silence between them, and neither of them spoke.

Laifu Town is still the same as when they left, it has been the same for thousands of years, and it will not change because of who has more or less.

Time is the fairest, and time is the most unforgiving. It doesn't matter if you come from an ordinary background and have a hard life. Or maybe you are of noble birth and have a turbulent life. None of them can resist the erosion of time. The years are so unforgiving.

I remember reading a quote that no matter how we are born, we are all equal before God.

For Laifu Town, the existence of the grandfather and grandson has no impact. It bears witness to the birth of many people here, as well as their old age.

"Squeak. ”

Pushing open the familiar door, the grandfather and grandson walked into their home. Everything is familiar.

Due to the long absence, the yard is somewhat barren, overgrown with weeds, and the ground is also piled up with dead leaves.

Nan Huaijin walked into his room, everything was the same as it was, and the room was still familiar to him. The only thing that has changed is that the house is covered with dust.

When they came to the courtyard, Nan Huaijin and Nanyutang couldn't take a break and began to clean.

Buckets of water from the well, which had not been used for a long time, were used to wipe the dust off the furniture.

Nan Huaijin took a broom and carefully swept the fallen leaves and weeds in the yard.

After the continuous efforts of the grandfather and grandson, the house was finally cleaned. The house that has not been cleaned for a long time is regaining vitality.

Ignoring the fire and cooking, the grandfather and grandson hastily ate some dried meat and dry food brought out by Lin Xia Mountain, and then fell asleep in a hurry.

Shortly after going to bed, there was an even snoring sound from both houses.

After a day's drive with heavy luggage, they were so tired that they were busy packing up the house when they came back.

After three years of absence, Nan Huaijin returned, with a full prey and a heart that was gradually maturing.
