"Harm, Brother Xiang Ping."

Li Xiangping walked back with the basket on his back, and a girl came from afar, the girl's face was round, her facial features were very ordinary, and her smile added a lot of charm to her eyebrows.

"Yun Mei"

Li Xiangping looked at the girl with a smile, turned around and handed over the basket of catch

"Look at the good fish my brother caught, you have to go back and taste a few."

"It's not going to be done."

Tian Yun smiled and lowered her head, the girl developed early, she was already taller than the thirteen-year-old Li Xiangping in eleven this year.

Men and women in Lijing Village got married in the 13th Five-Year Plan, and only two of the same generation were the most suitable age, and the girl had already decided that the boy in front of her was her husband.

"No, take it!" Forced two fish into Tian Yun's hands, Li Xiangping didn't think too much, Uncle Tian was the kindest in the village, he liked it the most, and when he met his daughter, he naturally had to take care of it.

Bidding farewell to Tian Yun, Li Xiangping hurriedly walked into the house and put the basket into the small pond. He thought about it, took out the piece and rubbed it, stuffed it into his arms, picked up the three wooden boxes on the table and went to the field.

There, his two older brothers were working on the farm with his father.

The Li family has four brothers, namely Li Changhu, Li Tongya, Li Xiangping, Li Qijing, in Lijing Village, there is no one who does not give a thumbs up to the four brothers of the Li family, Tian Yun's father said enviously whenever he talked about these four brothers: "Li Mutian is really a blessing!"

The blessed Li Mutian didn't think so, as the only person in Lijing Village who had ever gone far away, Li Mutian watched his children busy in the fields and was in pain.

"A good man should study and be a soldier, and he is a bad seed in the field!" He pointed at Uncle Tian and scolded.

But life is like this, people who have seen the light are miserable, Li Mutian has been in the army, killed people, returned to Lijing Village in his forties and bought land with military pay and became a big family, he is the most dissatisfied.

When Li Xiangping arrived at the field, his eldest brother Li Changhu was already waiting in the shade of the tree, he was the oldest, and he already had a beard on his mouth at the age of seventeen.

"The third brother walks slowly, not in a hurry."

Li Changhu touched Li Xiangping's head with a smile and looked at him gently.

"I heard Uncle Tian say that you have gained a lot today"

"Too many, brother!" Li Xiangping laughed: "Tonight is a good meal!" ”

"You."

Li Changhu sweated for him, picked up a wooden box and shouted to the field

"Second brother—"

"Come on!" The second brother Li Tongya walked quickly with a hoe, he sat down first and called out to Li Changhu for big brother, and then looked at Li Xiangping with a smile.

"You eat, I'll go back." Li Xiangping was busy all morning, but he was so hungry that he hurriedly went home.

————

When Lu Jiangxian was in Li Xiangping's basket, he felt that there was a faint inexplicable traction attracting him, and as he got closer and closer to the Li family, this feeling became stronger and stronger.

Passing by the big locust tree at the entrance of the village, this attraction reached its peak when he walked into the village, Lu Jiangxian felt tightness in his chest and shortness of breath, the mirror body in the basket was trembling slightly, and the mirror was full of red light.

"That's a part of me, or something that's vital to me." Lu Jiangxian had a kind of realization in his heart.

"To the north! The direction of that big lake! As Li Xiangping slowly moved away from the entrance of the village, this attraction slowly disappeared, and Lu Jiangxian secretly noted this direction in his heart.

Sticking to Li Xiangping and wandering around the village, combined with his own perceptual mental activity and observation of the target's movements and tone, Lu Jiangxian could basically understand what everyone he saw was saying.

He found that this seemed to be an ordinary small village, there were no martial arts masters flying on the walls, and he didn't see any immortal cultivators flying around.

The people worked in a regular manner, from sunrise to sunset, and the utensils used and the scale of the fields were not surprising.

"This place really seems to be an ordinary small village, and the best house is just a two-story civil structure house......" Lu Jiangxian thought, if there are immortal cultivators, no matter how good they are, they won't live in a small earthen house, right?

"Strong power will bring great productivity, and the small villages in front of us are too backward."

He already has a rough idea in his heart, and his future plan is slowly having a framework.

Tonight's Li family is extremely busy, and his mother and two younger brothers are busy washing and cooking.

Li Xiangping returned with a full load, and his younger brother Li Qijing quietly caught a nest of fat voles and stuffed them in the grain bag when he was picking mulberry and raising silkworms in the back mountain, and his father Li Mutian patted the shoulders of the two young men fiercely, praising their tails high.

At the age of fourteen or fifteen, when the body was growing, a few dishes on the table basically entered the stomachs of several people.

Li Mutian only tasted one chopstick, and his mother Liu Linyun also looked at the four brothers with a smile, only the big yellow dog was in a hurry under the table, shuttling between the legs of the six.

Eat dinner.

The moon slowly climbed up Dali Mountain, Li Xiangping leaned against the corner of the wall with a long barnyard in his mouth, and his father Li Mutian frowned and looked at the sky, as if looking for something.

"That's right, Dad." Li Xiangping patted his father's trouser leg and took out the piece from his arms.

"Picked up this thing in the river early in the morning."

"Huh." Li Mutian took Jianzi, squinted and looked at it over and over again

"Non-iron, non-copper, what's good?"

The cold moon slowly fell in front of the house, as if it came to life and gathered above the mirror little by little, forming a faint moon halo, Li Xiangping couldn't help but rub his eyes, as if the most beautiful moonlight he had seen in thirteen years appeared on that moon halo.

"Daddy!" Li Xiangping whispered.

"Shut up!" Li Mutian was shocked, forced himself to take his eyes away from the moon halo, his hands trembled, he shoved Jianzi into Li Xiangping's arms, and whispered in his ear:

"Hide in and tell your brothers to get their knives out."

It was the first time Li Xiangping saw such a fierce killing intent on his father's face, his eyes narrowed slightly, like an eagle ready to attack.

"Yes..."

His voice trembled, his legs went limp, and he moved into the door little by little.

The night was still good, and Li Xiangping pushed open the door.

"Brother... Father said take the guy and go to the door. Li Xiangping was almost about to cry, and he whispered to the two brothers leaning on the bedside tremblingly.

"What?!"

Li Changhu stood up in shock, held Li Xiangping with both hands, and looked at him with concern, "Is there a big problem with my father?" But what's the matter? ”

The second brother Li Tongya turned over and took out two knives from under the bed, took off the rattan coat and long stick hanging on the wall, looked out the window gloomily, and whispered:

"Presumably the enemy came to the door." He handed over the long knife and rattan clothes, held the long stick in his hand, and patted Li Changhu.

"Brother, don't ask anymore. Third brother, you take your mother and fourth brother to hide in the backyard. ”

"Good"

Li Xiangping hurriedly looked for his mother, and Li Changhu quickly calmed down, put on a rattan coat, and walked towards the door with a knife.

Outside.

Li Mutian was standing at the door, quietly looking at the melon field in front of the house, and when the two teenagers stood behind him, he waved his hand and took the long knife.

"The two of them probed the front and back of the house to make sure that there was no one around." The two hurriedly responded and went to investigate left and right.

Li Mutian himself had already walked generously to the melon field in front of the house, bent down to mention it, and actually fished out a person from the melon field.
