Chapter 117: Border Villages

When she heard the little girl ask, she was stunned, "Little girl, why don't you care what my name is, but ask me where I am?"

"Then why didn't the eldest brother ask me what my name was, but asked me where my house was first?" the little girl raised her head slightly and smiled a little slyly.

Xiao Li shook his head, a little helpless, "Because I'm in a hurry to send you home." ”

"Oh, I've never seen anyone outside, I want to hear the big brother talk," the little girl pouted. Then he looked at Xiao Li and blinked his eyes and asked, "Big brother, then what's your name?"

"My name is ......" Xiao Li wanted to blurt out his real name, but after a little hesitation, he said instead, "My name is Xing Li." ”

"Oh~" The little girl nodded, a look of doubt flashing across her cheeks.

"What's your name, little girl?"

"My name is Gu Xuan" The little girl raised her head with a smile, looked at Evian standing behind her, and asked, "Then what is the name of this big brother?"

"It's not a big brother, it's a sister, it's called Evian. ”

"Sister Evian, hello!" Gu Xuan smiled sweetly.

Evian grinned, as if she knew that Gu Xuan was calling her name.

"If Evian lives in a normal human environment for a longer time in the future, it may be possible to return to normal," he thought to himself.

"Big brother, where are you from? Is it from the depths of the grassland? I heard from the adults that no one can come out of the depths of the grassland alive. Then the little girl asked.

"I didn't come from the depths of the grassland, but I wanted to go to the depths of the grassland. ”

"Why did the big brother go to the depths of the grassland?"

"Little girl Gu Xuan, why do you have so many questions?" said Xiao Li, shaking his head.

"Well, then I won't ask. Gu Xuan rubbed her hands, and then raised her head again, "Brother Xing Li, who are you?"

"Little girl, why are you asking questions again?"

"This is just a problem, not a new one. ”

"I'm not the one here," he replied helplessly.

"Big brother, why are you carrying a bonsai on your back?"

"This is a new problem......

"Can't you ask new questions?"

"It's a new problem. ”

"Big brother, why are you so ......"

"It's still a new problem", Xiao Li interrupted the little girl's words, and muttered in his heart, "Why is this little girl Guxuan so curious about my business?"

"Gu Xuan, who else is in your family?" asked Lonely Stand, looking at the village in front of him.

Not far away, the village occupies a radius of several miles, and is surrounded by wooden stakes. There are few trees and stones in the grassland, so there are mostly cowhide felt houses in the village, when there are hundreds, it seems that the population here should be thousands, and in this barren grassland land, it is also a large village.

A major dirt road runs east and west through the village, and several fires burn sporadically on both sides of the road, presumably to drive away wild beasts.

"Big brother, you're a new problem too," the little girl pouted.

"Huh, you kid......"

"Gu Xuan, Gu Xuan!" At this moment, several villagers with torches rushed up towards the group.

"Daddy, Daddy" The little girl shouted to greet her after seeing the comer.

"You kid, why are you coming back so late today? A middle-aged man in his mid-forties, with a wrinkled forehead and a very thin man, patted the little girl on the head.

"Daddy, I met wolves just now......" Gu Xuan lowered her head and whispered.

"What, wolves, how can there be wolves?" exclaimed the middle-aged man.

"The wolves were all beaten away by this big brother, and there was also this big sister. ”

"This, who are these two?" The middle-aged man looked up at this time and saw the two people not far away, with a puzzled face. I saw that the two of them were all in shabby clothes, and one of them seemed to be a little afraid of people and hid behind the other.

"In Xia Xing Li, this is my sister Evian," Xiao Li immediately said.

"Sister?" the middle-aged man blurted out in shock, obviously not seeing Evian's identity as a woman, but hurriedly turned to say, "Thank you two for saving my girl." Two of them are outsiders?"

"Hmm," he nodded.

"It's getting dark now, why don't you two go to my house and rest for the night......"

As soon as the thin middle-aged man finished speaking, several big men who came with him touched him, because in their eyes, the two people in ragged clothes in front of him did not look like good people.

The middle-aged man didn't care, and then said, "The two are the lifesavers of my family, and I should also show my heart." ”

Xiao Li originally wanted to send Gu Xuan home and rush directly to Fanghu Mountain to look for Qiuqiu, but now that it was completely dark, he was not very familiar with the situation in Fanghu Mountain, so he rushed to go there and might be lost.

In addition, Evian looked haggard, for several days, they had not rested well, now that there is a place to rest, it should be the best plan to rest first and settle Evian well.

"Then I'm sorry," he said.

Although the village covers an area of several miles, most of the places are cow, sheep and horse pens, and when you step into it, a foul smell comes to your face.

Not long after, when approaching a tall cowhide felt room, a middle-aged woman wearing a wool hat and wheat-colored skin hurriedly greeted her, hugged Gu Xuan tightly in her arms, and comforted her for a while.

Thinking about it, this woman is the wife of a thin middle-aged man, Gu Xuan's mother.

The middle-aged man told the woman about the rescue of Gu Xuan, and the woman was grateful, and invited the two of them into the yurt room with great gratitude.

The people of the grassland here are bold and extremely hospitable, and the middle-aged man slaughtered a sheep without saying a word, burned half of it on fire, and boiled it half in white water.

Although the middle-aged man looked thin, he was very skillful in slaughtering and picking up sheep, and in less than an hour, the hot, fragrant mutton was served on the table.

Sitting on a leather blanket, he grabbed a lamb chop on a wooden table, dipped it in some spices, and feasted on it.

Evian, who was still a little cautious and couldn't let go, became unscrupulous when he saw the table full of food.

It was the first time in three years that he had eaten at a table, although he did not sit on a chair, although not in a spacious room. However, feeling the warm light of the fire in the yurt and eating delicious meat, his heart was much more settled, because this was the realm of the human race, and it was the environment in which he should live......

"Little brother Xing Li, I really don't know how to thank you, our old couple just pointed to Xuanxuan to accompany ......" The woman, who had been talking less, touched Gu Xuan's head and said.

"Just have meat to eat," he said, his mouth bulging.

"Little brother, come, drink some of our home-brewed goat's milk wine. The middle-aged man said as he picked up the cowhide wine bag and poured wine for Lili.

"No, no," he hurriedly waved his hand, "my dad never let me drink." Having said that, he glanced at the wine bag several times, clearly curious.

"Oh, and where is your dad now?" the middle-aged man lowered his hand.

"Makes sense, full!" said Lili as he picked up the bowl.

The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment before he reacted, so he poured a full bowl for Xiao Li.

The goat's milk wine is different from the spirits that he has seen before, it is not colorless, but white and turbid, and when you drink it, the taste is slightly brewed and slightly tangy, and it is not very spicy.

Xiao Liba smacked his mouth a few times, looking unfinished, and the middle-aged man immediately poured him another bowl.

"Babble~"

At this moment, the hungry and thirsty babbling who was already on his back couldn't help but move.

Lonely Li felt it and hurriedly patted his back. If you babble and break free at this time, I'm afraid it will scare the family.

"Little brother, what's wrong?" the middle-aged man asked.

"It's okay, my back is a little itchy," he said with a slightly unnatural smile.

"Big brother, the potted plant on your back is very curious, can you give it to me?" Gu Xuan leaned over to her side and babbled closely.

"This, bonsai is of great use to me, and I can't give it to others easily. ”

"How can I give that?"

"This, this ......" In front of Gu Xuan's parents, it was not easy for her to refuse directly.

"Gu Xuan, don't make trouble, do you want things directly like you?" The middle-aged man was obviously dissatisfied.

"Oh" Gu Xuan pouted, and then asked, "Big Brother Xing Li, when you fought away the wolves, you looked very good at kung fu, are you a cultivator?"

When Gu Xuan's parents heard her ask this question, they didn't stop her, but looked at her very curiously.

"Actually, I'm a cultivator, right......"

"Cultivator, little brother, no, no, the little immortal family is actually a cultivator, I am really old and confused, I didn't even see it......" Gu Xuan's father looked a little nervous for a while.

"Brother, my identity as a person in my cultivation is nothing, they are just ordinary people, you are an elder, I should respect you. Let's drink wine and eat meat......"

Xiao Li said a lot more, and Gu Xuan's parents calmed down, and chatted with each other more casually.

"Brother, I heard that there is a Fanghu Mountain near here, which seems to be quite famous. After a few more drinks, he asked.
