Early the next morning, Nan Xian woke up to the high-pitched singing of the rooster one after another.

The stockade was shrouded in mist, the air was full of cool moisture, and when you opened the window, you could see a hazy greenery.

She was standing on the porch draped in a thin blanket, looking out at the overlapping mountains in the distance, when she suddenly heard footsteps behind her.

She turned her head and collided with He Mingxiao's gaze.

He Mingxiao stopped two steps behind her, his gaze falling on her shoulder.

"It's cold in the morning, so don't catch a cold."

She tugged at the thin blanket that had slid down to her arm, turned her head, and said nothing.

There was a momentary pause in the atmosphere, which was immediately interrupted by the sound of "bang" going upstairs.

Ding He appeared holding the thermos box, and when she looked up and saw He Mingxiao, she quickly slowed down and said quickly, "He is always good", and then put the thermos box on the small table under the corridor and served a bowl of steaming red bean soup.

Nan Xian sat down at the table, scooped a spoonful of soup into her mouth, and immediately pursed her lower lip imperceptibly.

He Mingxiao suddenly spoke: "Add two more spoonfuls of sugar." ”

Ding He was stunned for a moment, subconsciously replied "yes", and added two spoonfuls of sugar to the soup.

The corners of Nan Xian's mouth twitched slightly, but she didn't hear it, and continued to drink the soup.

However, in the next second, there was a "crunch", and He Mingxiao sat on another rattan chair opposite her, stretching out his limbs relaxedly, looking at her with a smile.

Nan Xian took a deep breath and smirked, "Mr. He, is there something wrong with you?" ”

He Mingxiao blinked, "I'm also here for breakfast." ”

As soon as the words fell, Jiang Tezhu appeared with a large box and a small box, and neatly and quickly placed the breakfast in front of He Mingxiao.

Nan Xian raised her eyes and glanced at it - crab roe buns, exquisite shrimp dumplings, pork ribs with soy sauce, and a small bowl of fish fillet porridge.

It's all she likes.

This guy ...... Definitely on purpose! Nan Xian gritted her teeth silently.

"Mr. He, there's a table over there." She gestured towards the end of the hallway.

He Mingxiao glanced at it and replied with a straight face: "The two of them eat more fragrantly, and the scenery here is better." ”

Nan Xian: ...... Really, I don't believe it.

"I ordered a lot, would you like to try it?" He picked up a shrimp dumpling and put it in her bowl.

Nan Xian was startled, and hurriedly got up with her red bean soup in her hand, "No, I'm full, Mr. He, you eat slowly!" ”

He Mingxiao withdrew his hand, put the shrimp dumplings into his mouth, chewed and swallowed slowly, I don't know what I thought, and the corners of my lips hooked up with pleasure.

**

I ate an aggrieved breakfast in the morning, so that Nan Xian kept thinking about the crystal clear shrimp dumplings and the slender and beautiful hands holding the chopsticks all morning.

"Gollum-" The stomach was caught off guard and sang the empty city plan, and Yu Lin, who was walking next to her, subconsciously turned his head to look at her.

Nan Xian looked at him and couldn't help but be slightly surprised.

Yu Lin coughed lightly with his fist to his lips, "It seems to be almost noon, and I'm a little hungry, why don't we go eat something?" ”

This kid has the vision to see and will hand people steps, so Nan Xian readily agreed.

The two met by chance, Nan Xian was aimlessly looking for clues at the time, and met Yu Lin who had just gotten up, so the two temporarily formed an alliance.

Yu Lin led her to a small stilted building.

There lived an old woman in the building, who was very hospitable, beckoned them to sit down and drink tea, and served them a pot of steaming fish in sour soup.

The fish is a unique rice field fish here, it is not fishy at all, the meat is so tender that it will melt when you take a sip, and it is accompanied by a sour and spicy soup, so delicious that your tongue will swallow it in your stomach.

With this pot of fish, Nan Xian ate half a bowl of rice more than usual.

After the meal, Nan Xian was guessing where the program team would hide the clues, and suddenly saw the old woman on the side looking at them.

"Little girl doll, are you looking for Gu? It just so happens that I have something related to Gu here! ”

As soon as the words fell, the two of them looked at her together, Nan Xian's eyes lit up, and she sat next to the old woman with a small bench, "Grandma, really?" Can you show us? ”

The old woman readily agreed, got up and went to the bedroom.

Yu Lin cheered in a low voice, "Sister, you are too godly, grandma didn't mention Gu to me when I came to eat yesterday!" ”

Nan Xian sneered, "You only cared about eating yesterday, and others couldn't find a chance to give clues." ”

Yu Lin's face was slightly red, and he suddenly leaned his upper body over, and his bright eyes looked at her from bottom to top, full of anticipation: "That...... Is this what we found together? ”

The 19-year-old boy still has the youthfulness and childishness of a teenager, and such a coquettish with the intention of pleasing is like a watermelon that has just been lifted from the well water in midsummer.

Nan Xian stared at him for a moment, then quietly looked away, "Of course, we are allies. ”

While speaking, the old woman had already taken a clue, it was a book, and the cover read "Travels in the Wall".

"Hey, how is this?" Yu Lin was surprised, "Travelogue? ”

Nan Xian opened it, and on the title page was a string of incomprehensible words, which seemed to be the names of people, and on the second page was the main text, recording the anecdotes about Gu art that the owner of the travelogue had heard about Gu when he lived in this village.

"On May 13, 1950, I met two young people who came here to ask for help, the two were unmarried couples, but the man claimed to have fallen in love with the woman's close friend...... The woman was sad and lost, and came here to seek a solution to the Gu. However, when I look at the man's demeanor, it doesn't seem to be a sign of Gu, but more like a heartfelt word......"

Seeing the last sentence, Yu Lin immediately slammed the table angrily, "Scumbag! It's obviously empathy, don't fall in love, and say something about Gu, phew! ”

"Don't get excited, don't get excited, it's all stories."

Nan Xian turned to the next page——

"On December 4, 1951, a white-haired old man came to the village, with a thick strip of cloth around his neck, and his sick appearance was obvious.

Yu Lin subconsciously touched his neck, "Sister, what do you think?" ”

Nan Xian's eyes stayed on the line of "swollen throat and poor breathing", and a conjecture crossed her mind, but she couldn't be sure, so she only shook her head.

"Then let's move on to other clues."

The two said goodbye to the old woman, but they didn't expect to just step out of the door and meet Gu Changlin.

The three of them stopped in unison and looked at each other through a wooden fence gate.
