If you want to know where you are and how to get back to the Celestial Survey, you need to find the village lord to ask.

Counting on the children in front of him, I am afraid that it will lead to the topic of land fathers and marmots.

Shigou glanced at the bucket, then at Mu Nan, and said seriously:

"But I still have to go to the stream to fetch water, Grandpa's legs and feet are inconvenient, waiting for me to fetch water to make breakfast."

Mu Nan smiled: "What's so difficult about this? I can help you fetch water, you can take me to see your grandfather, okay? ”

Shigou hesitated for a moment, his eyes slightly melancholy:

"Yes, but you need to eat less for breakfast, Grandpa is not in good health, and there is not much food."

Mu Nan was stunned for a moment.

Looking at the ten dogs carefully, the face is yellow and thin, and under the patches of various colors of clothes, there is still delicate skin exposed.

Presumably, the poverty of the family is real.

But Tong Yan Wuji, still thinking about sharing a bite of breakfast with him.

Plain.

It's just that you look like you're rubbing rice?

"I'm a very small person who eats a lot of food, and I can eat a lot of soup with just a mouthful of soup."

When the Ten Dogs heard him say this, they were relieved to hand over the bucket.

"That's what you have to say, uncle, have you ever seen a marmot? It's a whoosh ......"

Mu Nan instinctively blocked his later words.

The bucket is heavy to start with.

Coupled with a bucket of water, it was hard for him to imagine how Ten Dogs could drag such a weight to and from the stream.

Mu Nan subconsciously filled the water to the brim, listened to the "chatter" of the ten dogs, and walked towards the village.

The ten dogs seemed to be tired, and their eyes were fixed on the measuring ruler:

"Uncle, I can help you with the iron rod. That way, you'll be able to make it easier. ”

Ten Dogs was extremely curious about measuring the ruler.

Like a sword but not a sword, like a stick not a stick.

There are also ten inscriptions in the smooth room.

The blacksmith in the village has the best fighting skill, a sickle, but he doesn't have this skill.

So, he made a good excuse.

"You can't take it......" Mu Nan kindly persuaded.

Measuring the weight of the ruler, don't say that it is a child, it is an adult, and it takes some effort to drag it up.

Moreover, he found that with each inscription, the measuring ruler weighed much more.

"I have a lot of strength!" Ten Dogs raised their young arms as if protesting, and at the same time boasted, "I can lift a bucket of water!" ”

Since he said so, Mu Nan didn't want to be too stingy, so he put the measuring ruler on the ground:

"You try? If you can drag it, I'll give it to you! ”

Ten Dogs rubbed his hands together, looking extremely excited.

"Except for the village chief's dog-beating stick, I haven't seen anyone with such a good-looking stick. Hey! ”

Ten Dogs breathed a sigh of relief, and first held the handle of the ruler with one hand and wanted to dance twice, but the measuring ruler did not move on the ground.

Ten dogs were not reconciled and used two hands to drag.

It's still not going to help.

Eventually, he put both feet to use.

Keep your feet on the ground and your arms straight.

Muscles and bones bulge.

His face was flushed.

I was so tired that I was panting, but I couldn't make the measuring scale move a bit.

"I said you can't take it, can you?" Mu Nan smiled: "I'll play a trick for you again." ”

Say, with a wave of one hand, the measuring scale disappeared into thin air.

"You still say that you are not the father-in-law of the land!" Ten dogs' eyes widened, and they circled around him twice, as if looking for the traces of the measuring scale:

"Only the father-in-law of the land can hide things! Tell me! ”

"Have you ever seen the father-in-law of the land?" Mu Nan asked curiously.

Ten dogs and one land father-in-law, could it be that there is a monster in this small village?

If there is such a monster, then it will be much more convenient for you to ask where you are and how to return to the Heavenly Patrol Prison.

"I haven't seen it." Ten Dogs shook his head: "But I've seen marmots that jumped out of the ground with a whoosh. ”

……

It is said that the children of the poor are in charge of the house early, and the ten dogs can be the masters, I am afraid that there is only that half of the grass house.

The reason why I say half is because the other half has collapsed, and the remaining half can't cover up too much wind and rain.

"Grandpa, I'm back."

Ten dogs jumped into the small courtyard surrounded by a broken fence and shouted at the old man who was living in the courtyard.

"The dog is back?"

The old man was lame, and there was some pot.

Those who walk one high and one low, coupled with their age, seem to be extremely slow to do things.

"Well, I've brought back an Uncle Groundhog!"

"In Xia Mu Nan, I saw Mr. Leng."

Mu Nan followed into the courtyard and bowed his hand to the old man.

"Hmm!" Only then did the old man realize that there was one more person in the courtyard, and hurriedly said, "It's a guest, sit down!" Children don't talk nonsense, there is no tutor. ”

"Oh!" Ten dogs replied obediently.

Quite sensibly, he moved the only bamboo chair in the courtyard.

There was only a few bamboo strips left, and it was difficult to hold it so that it would not immediately disperse into a handful of firewood and grass.

Mu Nan did not sit.

It's not that he resents it, but he's afraid that the only stool in the hut won't be able to bear his weight.

Just stood aside, said to the old man who was busy after greeting him:

"Mr. Leng, I am a wandering Taoist priest, I entered this place by mistake, there are many things that are not clear, please Mr. Clarify."

The old man did not put down his work, but took care of his breakfast, as if talking to himself:

"Qinglu Village hasn't seen outsiders for decades......"

Porridge was boiling in the pot, and half a bowl of unknown pickles was placed by the stove.

In the smoke, Mu Nan got some information from the old man's mouth.

This place is called Qinglu Village, which is thirty miles away, and there is also a Qingshui Village.

There were no other villages.

It is said that it is a hidden peach orchard located at the foot of Mangshan Mountain, and it is a little lifting.

Mangshan is so big that I don't know how many thousands of miles it is.

The poverty of the village is just a struggle to survive.

There were also young people in the village who wanted to witness the world beyond the mountains.

Carrying the hope of the whole village into Mangshan.

Without exception, no one ever came back alive.

The people of the village firmly believe that it is the world beyond the mountains that is too wonderful for them to linger.

In the old man's memory, a few decades ago, there was a wandering Taoist priest like Mu Nan, who came to Taoyuan Village thousands of miles away.

He said he wanted to see the side of the mountain.

It's just that he shook his head in the village and left with regret.

Again, in the cold house.

The difference is that the old man at that time was still a child.

The Taoist priest said that Qinglu Village and Qingshui Village are the end of the sky.

Further south, there is an endless sea, but there is no cape of the sea.

On the other side of the sea, he guessed, it's still the sea.

He also said that the scenery in the north of Mangshan is not good, and as for why it is not good, he is secretive.

I only sighed that such a pure village should not be disturbed by the world.

Mu Nan thought maliciously: He has not experienced poverty, so he naturally regards poverty as a matter of contentment.

"Thank you, Mr. Leng, for telling me."

In any case, Mu Nan got some useful information from the old man's words.

You need to climb over Mangshan Mountain to see the true face of this world.

And Mangshan, huge.

There are only Qinglu Village and Qingshui Village here, and no one knows what is going on outside.

The village chief didn't know either.

The reason why the old man knew this was just because he listened to the complaints of the last wandering Taoist priest.

"Where did Mu Shaoxia come from?"

The old man deliberately put a bowl of thick porridge at the bottom of the pot and handed it to Mu Nan.

Mu Nan was polite, and then handed it to Shigou: "From ...... The Celestial Survey is coming. ”

The old man's gaze was deep: "The Sky Survey Prison is a good place. ”

"Old Mr. Leng knows about the Sky Survey Prison?" Mu Nan asked excitedly.

"I don't know."

"Then you said that the Sky Survey is a good place."

"I can cross Mangshan to get here, what's wrong with the place?"

The old man's gaze was still deep, and he sighed infinitely: "It should be a far away place." ”

"It's a little far, you have to cross Mangshan."

Mu Nan replied nonchalantly.

He approached the old man and searched with his senses.

The old man didn't cultivate, and he wasn't a worldly master, but he simply thought that the Sky Survey Prison should be a good place.

"That's far enough." The old man said ramblingly: "Shaoxia is going back?" ”

Mu Nan didn't reply, thinking in his heart.

At the speed of the Soul Gathering Coffin, it is not difficult to fly over Mangshan.

It won't take long.

"Mangshan is steep, the dog's father fell off the cliff and died, and his mother went to look for the time...... Ay! Mu Shaoxia should be careful on the road. ”

The old man sighed and gave him another bowl of thicker porridge.

Mu Nan shook his head and said truthfully:

"Mr. Leng, let's be honest, I can already dig the valley, and I don't need to eat."

The old man hesitated for a moment while holding the porridge, and said shyly:

"Let Mu Shaoxia smile, ...... at home There is only a little porridge, and there is really no other delicious food, so I will just make a fool of my stomach. ”
