Chen Huaifeng arrived in the town early in the morning.

There was no snow in the town, but the frost and fog were heavy, and sometimes some chattering voices came from the morning fog far away in the town, and then dispersed in a low voice.

Not far away, there are people selling steamed buns, and there are early risers buying steamed buns in front of the stall.

Chen Huaifeng looked at it for a while, and then walked over, and after the previous person left, the thirty-two-year-old man holding the sword said sincerely: "Boss, bring me two buns and a cup of wolfberry tea." ”

The owner of the steamed bun seller is a man in his forties, who has been making steamed buns with his father in the town since he was a child, selling steamed buns, and selling steamed buns for more than 40 years, and it is the first time he has heard such a request.

So he lifted a drawer cage and looked up at Chen Huaifeng for a long time in the steaming steam, Chen Huaifeng's expression was very sincere, not like looking for fault, but not for finding fault, how could he go to the steamed bun shop to buy wolfberry tea?

The boss was very puzzled, but looking at the unusual-looking sword in Chen Huaifeng's arms, after thinking about it, he still said politely: "This guest officer is embarrassed, the small shop only sells steamed buns, not wolfberries....."

Before the boss finished speaking, he saw that Chen Huaifeng had already taken out the money bag from his arms, so he changed his words: "But then again, I sometimes make some wolfberry tea to drink, if you really want to drink it, I can also help you make a cup." ”

Chen Huaifeng smiled slightly and counted the money, and laid them down one by one by the cage drawer - enough to pay for two buns and a cup of wolfberry tea, and even a little more.

"Thanks, trouble faster."

The cold air was heavy in the early morning, Chen Huaifeng was injured again, and probably did need to drink some wolfberry tea to recuperate, from south to north, this Sword Sect senior brother didn't know how many cups of wolfberry tea he drank along the way.

Sometimes it's in a small town, sometimes it's in a small town.

Chen Huaifeng can always drink wolfberry tea, without exception.

Because he is rich.

The boss took two buns for Chen Huaifeng, and then walked into it quickly to make tea.

In winter, hot water is always boiled in advance.

So the tea was brewed very quickly, probably because Chen Huaifeng was too generous, and the boss asked loudly in the back: "Do you want to add some angelica?" ”

Chen Huaifeng thought for a while and said, "Yes." ”

After all, people have no choice but to soak wolfberries in a small teacup when they reach middle age. It is difficult for wolfberries to be urged by the years, and angelica must be added to them.

Chen Huaifeng is thirty-two years old, which can be said to be young or middle-aged, which is a very embarrassing point in time.

So he accepted the proposal of the owner of the bun shop to add more angelica, and then counted a few pennies and lined up on the side of the cage drawer.

The boss walked out with a cup of wolfberry angelica tea, carefully handed it to Chen Huaifeng, and then put away the money on the side of the cage drawer, and said politely: "Do you want to eat here, or ......?"

Chen Huaifeng shook his head with the cup and said, "I'll go shopping." ”

"Okay."

The boss didn't hold back, just watched the man holding the sword holding the hot tea with a bun and walking away leisurely in the morning fog of the town.

Do sword cultivators like health so much?

None of the people in the Daomen did that.

Chen Huaifeng was eating steamed buns and drinking hot tea, walking comfortably in the town at the end of December.

It's probably almost the New Year, and lanterns have begun to hang under the eaves of the houses on both sides of the foggy long street. Although there are many red lanterns in Nanyi City, this is not the same as that.

The lanterns in Nanyi City are meant to illuminate the night, while the lanterns in the town are meant to add some festive meaning. But the couplet has not been posted yet, which is probably the reason why there are still a few days before the end of the year.

I just bought buns for a while and waited for wolfberry tea for a while, and the fog in the town has not dissipated much, but there are faint sounds in the town, although it is still sparse, but after all, it is not as deserted as before.

Even under the eaves not far away, people began to set up stalls and sell ......

Chen Huaifeng was stunned for a moment, and looked carefully at the young man who was sleeping on the fire in a wheelchair under the eaves.

This is not that and that of the Hanging Temple.

Very good, Chen Huaifeng didn't know Chen He's name.

All he knew was that he had eaten his sizzling tofu.

How is this person in the territory of the Northern Blue Heaven Dao?

Chen Huaifeng was a little puzzled, and walked over, probably because the aroma of the steamed bun that Chen Huaifeng had nibbled two mouthfuls in his hand drifted into sleep, but Chen He opened his eyes in a daze, and then looked at Chen Huaifeng in a daze.

"The owner of the bun shop has opened?" Chen He didn't notice who Chen Huaifeng was, but asked with a yawn.

Chen Huaifeng nodded.

Chen He stood up from the small wheelchair, and then said with a smile: "Do you want to buy poetry?" Or lease? You can look at it for yourself for a while, and I'll buy some steamed buns and eat them back. ”

Chen Huaifeng wanted to ask some questions, but seeing Chen He like this, he nodded again, so he made way for Chen He, stood in front of the stall, and looked at those things.

There are some transcribed poems on the side, and a small wooden sign stands on the edge, with a three-penny poem, which needs to be picked up.

On the other side are some biographies - Chen Huaifeng remembered the biographies he saw in the library, and it seemed that it was indeed him. There is also a small wooden plaque next to the biography, with a starting rent of three cents for five days, one penny a day overdue, and a deposit of ten cents.

Chen Huaifeng looked up and down again, but he didn't find anything related to the iron plate tofu, but sighed.

Although Chen Huaifeng likes to maintain health, he has to admit that Chen He's iron plate tofu is very delicious, so Chen Huaifeng misses that taste a little at this time.

Chen He soon returned, holding a few steamed buns in his hand, eating as he walked, and carrying a pot of hot wine.

Although the owner of the steamed bun shop does not sell wolfberry tea or wine, if someone is generous, he can also sell some of himself.

Although Chen He is not as rich as Chen Huaifeng, he is an idle person after all, and idle people have no financial pressure, so they will naturally be more generous.

While eating steamed buns and sitting back in the small wheelchair next to the stove, Chen He also looked at the man holding the sword a little familiar, and looked at it for a long time, but he remembered it.

"Are you the Sword Sect Senior Brother in Nanyi City?"

Chen Huaifeng smiled and said, "Yes, why don't you sell sizzling tofu?" ”

Chen He said with a smile: "I will sell it when I am short of money, that kind of thing, the business is too good to sell, I can't be idle, and now the money bag is bulging, and I don't have this idea for the time being." ”

"That's a shame."

Chen Huaifeng laughed softly, but he looked really sorry.

Chen He finished eating a bun, looked at Chen Huaifeng curiously and asked, "What is Senior Brother doing here?" ”

Chen Huaifeng flipped through the biography on the stall and said casually: "There are some things in the view. ”

Chen He didn't ask, it was probably not a good thing for a person from the Human Sword Sect to come to a place like Qingtian Dao. He is a person who is idle and wild, so he naturally doesn't bother to ask about such a thing.

The two were talking, but a woman came in the fog on the long street, today's Xu Chunhua did not wear a small flower skirt, nor did she hold a small white umbrella, after all, the snow has stopped for a few days, and when the snow melts, it is always colder than the snow, so this small town girl is just dressed thickly, carrying a pot of hot wine in her hand, and walked to Chen He's stall, and saw Chen He who was nibbling on a bun and drinking warm wine, and seemed to be a little annoyed and said: "Chen He, how do you buy other people's wine to drink!" ”

Chen He smiled and said, "The end of the town is too far away, I'm a little too lazy to go, why did you bring wine today?" ”

Xu Chunhua glanced at Chen Huaifeng, who was holding a sword and drinking wolfberry tea, and then turned her head to stare at Chen He for a long time, before she put the pot of wine in her hand on the stall and said: "My father said that when you come to this town alone, you are always a little lonely, let me send you some hot wine to drink, and ask you if you don't have land for the New Year, whether you will go to my house for the New Year." ”

Chen He smiled and said, "That's not necessary, I'm used to celebrating the New Year alone, by the way, is this wine for me?" ”

Although Xu Chunhua looked a little dissatisfied, she still said, "Yes." ”

Chen He smiled and took the pot of wine with it, put it by the stove, and said, "Thank you, Miss Xu, thank you Shopkeeper Xu." ”

Xu Chunhua said a little seriously: "You really don't come?" ”

Chen He nodded and said, "I'll celebrate the New Year on the street." ”

Xu Chunhua shook her head, didn't say anything more, turned around and walked back along the long street.

Chen Huaifeng looked at the back of the small town girl, and then looked back at Chen He with some envy.

As soon as Chen He, the idle little boss, saw Chen Huaifeng's gaze, he knew that he must have misunderstood something, the senior brother of the Sword Sect has probably always been good at having the same weird ideas as the world.

"Don't think about it, she has a little lover, as for going to her house for the New Year..... Chen He tilted his head and said, "Probably because I do look lonely, I don't even have a place to live, and I sleep under the eaves every day to watch the snow." ”

"Then why don't you find a place to live?" Chen Huaifeng had finished eating the buns and was drinking hot tea and rinsing his mouth.

Chen He said with a smile: "Senior brother, don't you know that if you find a place to live, then you are really alone for the New Year?" Although I am under the eaves of the street, when the people in the town celebrate the New Year, they always think that there is still someone in the town who has no place to live, so they will come to chat with me in twos and threes and bring me some dumplings. You think it's a person celebrating the New Year, but it's actually the whole town that accompanies me for the New Year. ”

Chen Huaifeng looked at Chen He thoughtfully and said, "It does sound very reasonable, but I still think that small town girl seems to have some meaning to you." ”

Chen He said strangely: "Has my senior brother ever had a little lover?" ”

Chen Huaifeng said very ashamedly: "No. ”

Chen He smiled, sat on the chair and said: "That's it, people in the world live in the world, it is inevitable that they will always have some good feelings on top of the existing emotions, and have some good feelings for some outsiders, maybe because they are good-looking, maybe because they are good looking, maybe because they are compatible, emotions are also human desires, and the temptation above human desires is inevitable." I can naturally see that Xu Chunhua may have a good impression of me, and maybe one night, he also thought that if his little lover didn't come back, he would live with me for the rest of his life. ”

Chen Huaifeng raised his eyebrows and looked at Chen He and said, "What about you?" ”

Chen He said softly: "I naturally have had it. ”

"Then why don't you go to her house for the New Year?"

"Because she has a little lover. So she asked me if I was serious about going to her house for the New Year, and she didn't want me to go to her house for the New Year. This kind of thing will make her feel a strong sense of guilt. So I had to say no. Chen He chuckled softly, "She may have a period of resentment towards me, and then it will turn into a lot of happiness, and there may be pride in keeping her lust, people always have to go through some such things, and when those things have passed, she can be more sober and wait for a person's return." ”

Chen Huaifeng looked at Chen He quietly, and then said softly: "What about yourself?" ”

Chen He said lazily and melancholy: "When I leave here, I won't be entangled in these things." ”

Chen Huaifeng smiled and said, "You are chic." ”

Chen He drank warm wine and said with a smile: "I am naturally chic, senior brother, is there anyone who has made you think?" ”

Chen Huaifeng sighed and drank the wolfberry tea in the cup, and said: "Yes, that was the first time I left the Human Sword Sect in the past few years, when you were there, selling teppanyaki tofu next to me, I was standing by the river, drinking wolfberry tea, and then I saw a girl washing her feet with shoes by the river. ”

Chen He raised his eyebrows and said, "You like to see women's feet?" ”

"You don't like it?" Chen Huaifeng asked rhetorically.

Chen He smiled.

"But what makes me excited is not the girl's washing of her feet, but the warm spring sun, by the green weeping willow river, after the girl finished washing her feet with her shoes, she raised her hand and pulled the green silk hanging from her ears......." Chen Huaifeng said, tilted his head and thought about it, remembering his feelings at that time, "Infinite gentleness, yes, that posture, infinite gentleness." ”

Chen He took a deep breath, obviously moved by Chen Huaifeng's description.

"Why didn't I see it at the time?"

"You're frying tofu." Chen Huaifeng said with a soft smile, "Then I was also attracted by your tofu, so I also missed the opportunity to ask her name." ”

"That's a shame indeed." Chen He said with a smile.

"But sometimes I still dream, I dreamed that I was not attracted by your tofu at that time, but walked across the bridge, waited for her under a spring willow tree, and then asked her name, and then began to intersect constantly, so I left the Sword Sect, married her, had children, and lived this life in peace."

Chen Huaifeng said with a smile, "It's just a pity that I didn't see her again." ”

Probably the girl who was rarely idle for a while, wandering around Nanyi City to wash her feet, has been worrying about the spring exam in the courtyard since then.

The two of them drank tea and wine, and said such a very human thing, even if one of them was well-known to the world, a certain senior brother of the Human Sword Sect, there was nothing very discordant.

It's just the world.

Chen Huaifeng's tea was finished, so he looked at the remaining wolfberry grains and angelica slices in the cup, and stretched out the cup to Chen He.

"Get me some wine too."

Chen He lifted the wine jug, poured wine for Chen Huaifeng, and said with a smile: "I thought you wouldn't drink." ”

Chen Huaifeng looked at the warm wine in the cup and said softly: "Probably because you talked about some sad emotions, drink some wine and be happier." ”

Chen He said thoughtfully: "Yes, happiness is also the secret of health preservation. ”

Chen Huaifeng looked at the wine pot that Chen He poured and said, "Why don't you give me the pot that I haven't drunk?" ”

Chen He looked at the pot of wine sent by Xu Chunhua by the stove, shook his head and said, "No, I drank it myself." ”

Chen Huaifeng laughed softly, took the wine, and drank it comfortably in small sips.

"Where's that little lover of that town girl?"

Chen He shook his head and said, "I don't know, in short, it seems to be a Taoist in the view." ”

Chen Huaifeng didn't know that the girl who washed her feet by the river was called Hang Yue, and Chen He didn't know that Xu Chunhua's little lover was called Meixiyu.

So a lot of stories are probably in a hazy way, and they pass by.

Chen Huaifeng didn't ask, after drinking the wine in the cup, he was probably in a better mood, turned his head to look at the town where the fog had gradually dispersed, and then turned his head to look at the mountain outside the town that still had a lot of snow.

"I'm going to Guanli, and if I have the opportunity, I'll also come to the town for the New Year."

Chen He chuckled softly and said, "Okay." Then am I going to prepare you some sizzling tofu and goji berry tea? ”

Chen Huaifeng smiled slightly: "Teppanyaki tofu and warm wine are fine." ”

"No problem."

So this senior brother from the Southern Sword Sect left the cup on Chen He's stall, turned his head to look in the direction where the small town girl named Xu Chunhua had left, and then walked through the foggy long street towards the Taoist temple hidden in the mountains.

Chen He continued to sit under the eaves of the town's streets, and the late December sun cast a cold light behind the fog, illuminating the somewhat wet streets, with a different kind of quiet.

However, this silence was soon broken by pedestrians walking on the street.

"I actually drank two pots of wine at the same time today, and it seems that I sold a lot of it yesterday, Chen He."

Pedestrians watched Chen He greet him as they passed by.

Chen He smiled and said, "No, there is a pot that was given by the shopkeeper Xu at the end of the town." ”

The man smiled strangely, but he didn't know what he remembered, but he asked again, "Are you going to Xu's shopkeeper's house for the New Year?" ”

Chen He said, "No. ”

"Then you can come to my house for the New Year."

"No, it's good for me to have a fire here."

"Okay, I'll bring you some coal later."

"Okay, thank you."

Chen He watched with a smile as the man left, and the streets of the town became quiet again. Chen He sat in a small wheelchair, quietly drinking warm wine, and then looked at another pot of wine on the side, raised his hand and touched the body of the pot, it was probably cold, after all, it was not put on the stove, and things in winter are always easy to get cold quickly.

Chen He picked up the pot of wine that was already cold, and when he reached a cup, he began to drink the cold wine.

It's just that it's really not very comfortable to drink like this, so Chen He took a few sips, put the pot of wine on the stove again, and prepared to heat it up and drink it again.

Probably a lot of things, naturally don't be too deliberate.
