Chapter 139: Laughs
When Shen returned to the village, Su Yao also happened to lead a few children back from the lotus pond, and the little ghost head Wei Li had a smile on his face, and it seemed that he had forgotten about the fox demon.
After the children saw Shen Jing, they obediently shouted Brother Jiang one by one and went home, and if they didn't go back soon, they had to shout at the top of their voices.
Su Yao has probably been with the children for a long time, so even her mood has improved a lot, and the whole person looks much lighter.
After the children left, Su Yao walked slowly to Shen Jing's side and returned to the small courtyard with Shen Jing.
On the way, Su Yao asked as she walked, "What did you gain over there?" ”
Shen said with a smile: "I can't talk about the harvest, but I just encountered an interesting thing." ”
Su Yao said: "Then let's hear it." ”
Shen said: "Do you remember that white fox?" ”
Su Yao nodded and said, "Remember, what's wrong?" “
"That white fox is actually a demon of the Aiki Realm, and it can speak without being transformed. I vaguely sensed the strangeness of the white fox when you were there before, and after you left, I chatted with it for a while. ”
Su Yao raised her eyebrows when she heard this, "It seems that you have a good chat with it." ”
Shen said with a smile: "That white fox is also a child's heart, and being able to speak is mostly related to the region here." The white fox said that the radius of dozens of miles in Liushui Village is actually a special small world, and we broke into it by accident. ”
It should have been extremely difficult to enter a small world, but Su Yao obviously didn't care too much about it at the moment, but she just knew that there was such a thing, and then asked: "If you count by age, you can be regarded as a child in front of that fox." ”
Shen Guo said: "I am also a mid-stage cultivator in the Guiyuan Realm now, and I can be regarded as half a "senior" on the rivers and lakes, a fox demon in the Convergence Realm, and I can only be regarded as my junior." “
Su Yao smiled when she heard this, of course she didn't plan to fight with Shen Guo on such a boring topic. The previous words were just casually mentioned and joking.
Although the two had only been in the village for less than a day, they had obviously relaxed a lot with each other.
As soon as Shen Kuang returned to the small courtyard, Ma Dahei neighed at Shen Kuang, as if protesting against Shen Kuang sneaking out alone to play without him.
Shen was unmoved, even if Da Hei became a jing, he was not his opponent, so he didn't have to worry about Da Hei's "rebellion". However, adhering to the principle of humanitarianism, Shen Guo still got intimate with Da Hei for a while, and Da Hei reluctantly accepted it.
As soon as Shen Kuang and Su Yao returned to the small courtyard with their front feet, the man Tu Fan arrived at the door and shouted to the two: "Little Brother Jiang, the village chief asked me to call you over for dinner." ”
Shen Guo turned around when he heard this, and said with a smile after seeing that it was Tu Fan: "Uncle Tu, you go back first, we will go over immediately." ”
Tu Fan responded, and asked Shen Jing and Su Yao to come quickly.
After Tu Fan left, Shen Jing walked slowly to the room, and said: "It's good to be here, you don't have to worry about anything to eat and drink, it's like returning to Hongni Lane." ”
Su Yao smiled when she heard this: "Then Shen Daxia can consider staying here, anyway, it is unlikely that people outside want to find here." ”
Shen Guo waved his hand, pretending to tearfully regret it: "I will slack off if I stay in the gentle country for a long time, Shen Daxia, I am a man who aspires to become a great grandmaster, and I can't be nostalgic for this." ”
Su Yao listened to Shen Jing's stinky nonsense and gave him a blank look, this guy is now more and more good at witty things.
Lunch was still eaten at the village chief Fan Cen's house, and it was still the most ordinary home-cooked food, because Fan Cen could see that the two of them actually preferred these home-cooked dishes compared to big fish and meat.
Tu Fan also ate with the three of them, and the village chief originally wanted to have a drink, but was stopped by Tu Fan. Tu Fan said that the village chief had drunk all the wine in advance until this year's New Year's Festival, so he couldn't drink it anymore.
The village chief is also a straightforward character, and he didn't argue with Tu Fan, but just scolded his mother bluntly, cool.
Tu Fan had long been accustomed to it, he didn't care about it, and even smiled and asked the village chief to find his mother by himself.
When the village chief heard this, he recalled Tu Fan's mother, who was a ruthless person and couldn't be scolded.
After scolding Tu Fan, Fan Cen began to ask Shen Jing and Su Yao how they were playing in the morning, and asked them if the scenery of Liushui Village was okay.
Shen Kuang smiled and said that the scenery here is pleasant, and it is a good place to raise people, and the old man laughed when he heard this.
Shen Kuang believed that the people in the village, including Fan Cen, the oldest village head, should not know the wonder of this small world they were in, let alone that there were demons born here.
Thinking of this, Shen Jing suddenly thought of the child who was scared to pee his pants in the mouth of the white fox Gu Sheng, and he was also an old man today, could it be the village chief and his old man.
Of course, Shen didn't say anything about exposing people's old truths like this, and he was afraid that he would be scolded by the straightforward village chief, which was not cost-effective.
After chatting a lot with the village chief, Shen Guo learned more about Liushui Village.
The village claims to have a system in all respects, and the older chief, in addition to making decisions on some affairs in the village, is also a mentor to the children.
According to the village chief, when their ancestors fled here, they brought with them a lot of books so that they would not be left without books to read.
In the school in the village, there are everything from Mongolian reading books to the four books and five classics, and the knowledge is complete. Therefore, the children of Wei Li and Liu Xi know no less knowledge than the children outside.
Don't look at the village chief sometimes likes to scold people, but when it comes to children, when it comes to school, he will suddenly turn back into the old gentleman who is strict with his studies.
The village chief asked Shen Jing and Su Yao what books they were reading outside, and Shen Kuang, who didn't know much about it, couldn't hold back a few names for a long time, and Su Yao always said a lot.
The village chief sighed in his heart, the speed of learning is extremely fast, and they have articles by the older generation of sages, but there is no new category of learning in Liushui Village after all.
Shen Kuang and Su Yao could also see the old man's thoughts, but neither of them had those books in their hands, and the only one Shen Kuang carried with him was the "Miscellaneous Records", which was praised as a miscellaneous book by literati and ink writers.
"Miscellaneous Records" is actually more like a collection of encyclopedias and stories of the Great Wei Dynasty, which records a lot of trivial knowledge outside of orthodox learning. There are about the martial arts of the rivers and lakes, there are also about the mountain spirits and ghosts, there are about the elegance of the literati, and there are also about the major events of the family and the country, in short, the "Miscellaneous Records" records a lot of strange knowledge.
"Miscellaneous Records" has been circulating in Dawei for some years, but Shen Guo doesn't know who wrote it.
Originally, Shen Guo only planned to mention one sentence, because he didn't think that the village chief would teach such miscellaneous books to the children.
However, when the village chief heard that Shen Guo had this book, he was ecstatic, which made Shen Jing a little puzzled. The village chief hurriedly sped up the pace of eating, and said that he would let Tu Fan and them rub it out in the afternoon.
Shen Kuang smiled and said that the "Miscellaneous Record" could be given to the village chief, but the village chief shook his head and refused to accept it, saying that it would always take a few more copies.
As far as Shen is concerned, a miscellaneous book that is dispensable, in the eyes of the village chief Fan Cen, it is a rare treasure. The village chief was overjoyed and toasted Shen Guo with tea and wine.
After eating, the village chief beckoned Tu Fan to be busy with rubbing, and before leaving, he asked Shen Guan to walk around the village with those children, and tell the children some stories outside by the way.
The village chief said that the children's eyes should not be bound to the small flowing water village, they can not go out, but they can't be the frog at the bottom of the well forever, they don't know anything, Shen Jing and Su Yao both thought so.
Originally, the afternoon time in Liushui Village was relatively quiet, but today was an exception.
The village chief got a new book, beckoned the men of all families to help rub it, and the women gathered in front of the door in twos and threes to do simple work, and only the children had nothing to do.
Guests came to the village, and the village chief's grandfather allowed them not to go to school these days, so even the sun at noon could not stop the children's enthusiasm for playing.
After lunch, Shen Jing and Su Yao went back to the small courtyard, and after Shen Guo fed the two horses hay, they rested under the porch with Su Yao.
In the rare afternoon, the breeze was slightly warm, and Shen Qing was lying motionless under the porch. Occasionally, he would poke his head out to look at the sun in the sky, and his thoughts drifted farther and farther away.
Su Yao sat cross-legged on the side, and Qing Bang was also untied by her and placed on the side.
Su Yao pressed Shen Jing with her knee for a moment, and then asked, "When are we going to continue our journey?" ”
Shen Kuang lazily put his hands behind his head, raised his right foot and put it on the knee of his left leg, and his body swayed.
"Tomorrow, it's time to go."
Su Yao nodded and didn't continue to ask.
Xu was infected by Shen Qian, so Su Yao also leaned back slightly, her hands on the floor of the corridor, her body was relaxed and lazy, she raised her head to feel the warm sunshine, and her eyes were slightly closed.
Shen Jing looked at Su Yao, and then looked at the sky, feeling extremely good. He wanted to say something to express the pleasure in his heart, but unfortunately because there was too little ink in his head, he only thought that it was really good after holding it for a long time.
The sun is really good, the village is really good, and the people are really good.
Anyway, as far as the eye can see, everything is good.
The two of them lay lazily and leaned on each other, and neither of them said much.
After the two stayed quietly under the corridor for a long time, the voices of the children suddenly sounded outside the small courtyard, and it was Tu Fan's son Tu Yu's loudest.
"Brother Jiang, Sister Jiang, we're here again!"
Before the people arrived, the voice arrived first, and after a while, a small head poked out and appeared at the gate of the small courtyard.
The children looked at the two lazy people under the corridor and smiled, and Shen Jing and Su Yao looked at them with smiles on their faces.
In the eyes of the children, the elder brothers and sisters are very powerful people, and as for how powerful they are, they estimate that they can at least be better than the village chief and grandfather.
So when the little ones saw the lazy appearance of their brothers and sisters under the corridor, they felt that their brothers and sisters seemed to be no different from them, and they also liked to be lazy.
The little ones laughed at Shen Jing and Su Yao for falling into the dust, and Shen Jing and Su Yao were happy that there was such a group of lovely children.
There are three or three in the world, but this is the only one here.
The two of them came to the west to lead the horses, and there were lotus flowers at the head of the village in the east. The flowing water flows with the people, and the falling flowers are silent and scattered.
