"It's not a nuisance." She looked at the mountains and forests in the distance: "How to say it, she may have been influenced by Feng Lan, she has to compare with me in everything, her self-esteem is strong, it is impossible to bow to me, let alone listen to me." ”

"Is it equivalent to one mountain that cannot tolerate two tigers?"

"Almost."

Hearing the prayer boat, it is clear.

His fingertips clasped the soft wattle and accompanied her to the light sandalwood as she walked slowly along the main hall.

When he returned to the backyard, the person opposite Ming Chang was replaced by Xie Changxiao, and the two apprentices were sitting beside him, flipping through books.

Wen Yaxian and Yan Shuo entered the kitchen.

Soon after they moved into the Taoist temple, they decided to start a fire with the three masters and apprentices, and took turns cooking every day, which saved a lot of trouble.

"Brother Qizhou." Xun Song handed the children's book to Wen Qizhou, and said softly: "Xun Song wants to hear you tell a story." ”

He didn't know many words.

Every time Wen Qizhou told him a story, he would patiently teach him to read and write.

When the warm voice sounded, Chi Yue, who was sitting on the recliner, leaned back and listened lazily with Xun Song.

Listening to it, a light footstep sounded from far to near, and Chi Yunyan, who came out of the side room, squatted beside her.

"Sister, how many supplies do you need to give to the Taoist temple?"

"How many do you have left?"

"Seven catties of bacon, four bags of instant noodles, more than a dozen catties of flour, and five packs of cigarettes." His elbow rested on the chair and glanced at Ming Chang at the table: "Does Ming Dao Chang smoke?" ”

"No." She suggested that Chi Yunyan give all the food to Ming Zhang, and mentioned: "When you are injured, you will go into the back mountain to hunt, and pay half of what you hunt as food." ”

Chi Yunyan nodded: "Okay." ”

He went back to the wing, Chi Anying, who was hit on the head by a stick, was still dizzy, and he didn't show up until dinner time, but he rested for a night and relieved himself a little before he walked out of the bedroom.

Her temperament is colder than ever.

Seeing that Chi Yue only nodded and said hello, he couldn't say a word for a long time, and spent most of his time working hard, either watering the vegetable patch, helping Wen Yaxian weave bamboo baskets, or making homemade hunting tools, and he was rarely idle.

Chi Yue didn't care about her.

What is she willing to do is her business, their relationship is not close, and it will be more comfortable for each other to maintain the status quo.

"Wife." Wen Qizhou, who went to take a bath outside, came back with a body of steam: "I heard them arguing just now. ”

"What's the noise?"

"Chi Anying wants to go back to Source City." He lifted a corner of the quilt, lay down and hugged Chi Yue's waist: "Chi Yunyan disagrees." ”

The life of the Taoist temple is inevitably several times better than the source city full of uncertainty, and smart people know how to choose.

Chi Yue didn't understand her thoughts.

She groaned, "Because of me? ”

"It's not." Wen Qizhou turned off the night light and stroked the long soft hair: "They mentioned a man. ”

"Ex-boyfriend?"

"Possibly."

Chi Yue lost interest.

She yawned and leaned closer to his arms, dropped the sentence "whatever she wanted", closed her eyes, and quietly brewed sleep.

When she woke up naturally, she found that the light of the morning sun had not yet been refracted, and she slept close to his neck socket for a while.

I woke up twice before dawn.

They sensed that something was wrong, and Wen Qizhou picked up the watch on the table and took a look: "Wife, it's eleven o'clock soon." ”

Chi Yue had a guess in his heart.

She and Wen Qizhou put on their clothes and walked out of the door, looking up at the sky that was pitch black, with no golden wheel and bright moon visible.

The others, who were woken up by the biological clock one after another, also went out to gather on the corridor, looking at the sky with them dumbfounded.

Wen Yaxian: "What's the situation?" She rubbed her eyes twice and looked at her watch repeatedly, the more she looked at it, the more confused she became.

Yan Shuo: "It should be Polar Night?" ”

He explained this kind of natural phenomenon in detail, and the master and apprentice and sister and brother who came from the West Wing did not miss his popular science.

After he finished popularizing science, Ming Chang told them to go to the main hall, light matches and light candles, and talked about setting traps for the front and back doors of the Taoist temple: "If there are people with bad intentions who go up the mountain, the trap can also buy us a certain amount of time." ”

"Okay." None of them had an opinion.

The polar night is prone to incidents, and how to leave it alone outside the mountain for the time being, but the current peace of the Taoist temple must not be broken by outsiders.

After the discussion, they went their separate ways.

Wen Qizhou and Xie Changxiao used trees to cover up the road leading to the Taoist temple to create the illusion that they were impassable; Ji Yunyan, Yan Shuo, and Yunqi set traps outside the backyard; Chi Yue and the rest of the people surrounded the temple walls, using sharpened branches and the only broken glass to set up barriers, and then wrapped a fishing line around a few bells.

Working until 6 o'clock in the afternoon, they disposed of the sheep that Wen Qizhou had "hunted" in the mountains yesterday, carried them to the backyard and set up them on the fire, brushed them with oil, and prepared to eat the whole sheep.

"Changxiao, I remember you still have two bottles of wine there?" Chi Yue, who wanted to drink two glasses, turned her head to look at him.

In order to avoid leaving everyone with the impression that she and Wen Qizhou have a lot of things, they usually let Xie Changxiao cover up.

Xie Changxiao understood in seconds: "Yes." ”

"Where?"

"Suitcase."

She went into the room and took out two bottles of wine, poured them into the wine glasses prepared by Ming Zhang, and handed them to them in turn.

"Sister Yue, Xun Song hasn't been seen yet." Xun Song, who was empty-handed, pursed his lips slightly, and glanced at Chi Yue, who had forgotten him.

"Children can't drink."

"I'm five years old." He stretched out his little meat hand, opened his palm and said seriously: "The master said, I'm not a child anymore." ”

"You can't drink that." Yun Qi, who was sitting beside him, rubbed his head and asked gently, "I'll make milk powder for you?" ”

Xun Song nodded: "Okay." ”

Yun Qi walked into the main hall, found the baby milk powder that Wen Yaxian had given them before, brewed a full cup and then served it to Xun Song.

Soon after they sat down, the roasted whole lamb on the fire gave off a rich fragrance, and the fragrance carried the smoke that rose and brushed the noses of everyone present.

Xie Changxiao and Yan Shuo, who were in charge of the barbecue, held a knife and cut the meat and put it on the plate, and then Ji Yunyan passed the disc to them.

They picked up a piece of lamb with chopsticks and savored it, and sometimes took two sips of wine from their cups.

"The wine with lamb is absolutely stunning!" Chi Yunyan sighed in satisfaction: "No wonder Brother Huai always talks to me." ”

Chi Yue suddenly raised her head.

She swallowed the meat in her mouth, her eyes locked on Chi Yunyan, and she said eagerly: "Is the Brother Huai you are talking about Ge Huai?" ”

Ge Huai is Ge Qinyao's brother.

Chi Yunyan: "Yes. ”

"Where are they?" A flash of joy flashed in her eyes, and she asked one after another, "Is Qin Yao okay?" Are there any injuries? ”

"Qingyang City."

Qingyang City is not far from the source city.

Chi Yunyan's sister and brother were in early October, when they entered the Qingyang base for a short stay, they met the Ge family brothers and sisters who were setting up a stall.

He replied one by one: "Sister Yao is not injured, but they are not doing well, mainly because the burden on their bodies is too heavy. ”
