Chapter 40: Return
Quaint ornamental carvings, patterned fur of some beasts, and weapons of at least 'Hundred Temper' quality hanging on the walls......
It is dazzling, with a kind of wild and simple beauty.
In Cloud City, this kind of arrangement and decoration in the wooden house is not intended to be considered a luxury.
This happens to be two very big extremes with the simplicity and cleanliness of the white brother wooden house.
Entering the wooden house, Li Le followed behind the woman, and did not deliberately look at the ornaments, but looked commonplace, and his expression was very calm.
In her previous life, she followed her father to too many places such as drinking parties and business plazas, what rare objects have she not seen and played?
These things that look exquisite to people in this world are nothing more than that, and they can even be called shabby.
So it's not amazing at all.
The woman next to her took her all the way into the wooden house, talking to Li Le all the way, and also paying attention to Li Le's expression.
Seeing that Li Le's expression had not changed at all, and even a little inadvertent, he couldn't help but be secretly surprised in his heart, and glanced at her:
The current head of the white district grew up eating 100 family meals.
Although he is the head of the district, everyone knows what kind of situation his family has, and his family background is far from being as thick as his own family.
But there was not a trace of surprise and admiration in the eyes of the child in front of him.
It is said that this child was brought back by the district chief not long ago... So maybe this child's identity is beyond the ordinary?
Thinking of this, the look on the woman's face became a little closer, and Li Le's steps were faster.
After a while, he pushed open the door of the inner room and entered the inner room.
It wasn't bright in the room, but the windows were large, and light shone into the room through the windows.
Judging from Li Le's current eyesight, he doesn't feel dim.
There was a seven-sits in the room. Seventy or eighty-year-old grandfather.
That old man was the old man of the district who let Brother Bai retreat bravely from the rapids when he divided the prey that day.
The old man sat on the main seat next to the table, with a cane next to the chair, and was closing his eyes to recuperate, and there was a quiet, old smell all over him.
It is in the 13th district that is highly respected and highly respected.
This district elder is very old, and the exact age is no longer known, except for the few seniors in other districts who are similar to him, no one can know his exact age.
But undoubtedly, this is a very wise old man.
At this moment, after hearing the footsteps of the two, the old man opened his eyes in some surprise, his eyes were sharp and flashing.
The momentum of the moment is like a knife cut, as if it can stimulate the hair to stand on end, the eyes hurt, and people are frightened.
Then, after seeing that it was his granddaughter with an underage cub, the old man's expression slowly relaxed.
The woman walked over with Li Le, and was about to speak to the old man:
"Grandpa, she'sā"
The old man picked up his crutches, stood on the ground, stopped the conversation, and said to the woman with a gentle expression:
"There are only a few children in our district, where can I use you to introduce me to this old bone?"
The old man turned his head to look at Li Le, his eyes showed love, stroked his beard, and said with a deep smile:
"Little guy, you should be Ye Zixin's sister?"
The old man in front of him smiled lovingly, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were relaxed.
But with the momentum that the old man had just burst out in an instant, Li Le would not be stupid to treat this old man as an ordinary person.
After all, an ordinary person can't live so long in this dangerous world.
She didn't dare to underestimate the glint that flashed in the old man's eyes from time to time.
Li Le imagined him as his grandfather in his previous life, his eyes were curious and close, and he said:
"Yes, grandpa, I'm the younger sister of the eldest brother, and I only followed Brother Bai some time ago."
The voice is not loud, and the age seems to be younger than the woman next to him, which can very lower people's vigilance and make people feel close.
"Grandpa, the jewelry you gave me was all picked up for help..."
"I thought that District Chief Bai was patrolling now, and I couldn't see this little guy, so I took her to our house and let her have a meal."
The woman opened her mouth with a smile, touched Li Le's black hair again, and pulled Li Le into the seat.
When the old man heard this, the look in his eyes softened, and he looked at Li Le with a little more closeness to his juniors, and said:
"Is it called 'music'?"
"Sit down, it's rare that you have this thought, and send back the bone chain of 'Rui', which is a gift from the old man I gave her, usually very baby..."
"If it's lost, I'm afraid this girl is going to make a fuss..."
The old man stroked his beard, glanced at the woman standing next to him, and said with a smile.
The woman looked no more than 20 at most, and when she heard the old man's words, she couldn't help but be a little annoyed and exclaimed:
"Grandpa!"
The old man smiled and waved his hand, and said, "Grandpa won't say it, don't say it, it's almost time to eat in the kitchen, you can go and take a look." ā
The woman snorted, glanced at the old man, turned and walked into the kitchen, where she could faintly be heard muttering:
"When you come back, you must sue the 'wind', hum!"
ā¦ā¦
The old man didn't know whether he heard it or not, his expression didn't change, and he said happily to Li Le:
"Kid, how old are you?"
Li Le smiled and said, "Grandpa, I'm 18 years old this year. ā
The old man's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise, and he stroked his beard and said, "Then there are still two 'return' times before the 'Goli'?" ā
'Return' is a unit of division of time in this world.
The dead fog comes and goes for 6 months, and it is regarded as a 'return'.
Therefore, the two 'returns' that the old man said when he opened his mouth are the meaning of one year.
