Gu Huayue slid down from Zhu Yanqu's body and rubbed her eyes.

Stand where you are, tilt your head and look at the bamboo forest where the shadows of the trees are shaking.

Shui Ling's eyes couldn't help but widen, and he hurriedly grabbed Zhu Xingguo, who was still a little dazed.

"Brother, look at this bamboo, wow!"

She exclaimed, and suddenly saw roasted sweet potatoes appear in front of her.

Reaching out to take it, he ate it in small bites, his eyes still staring directly at the giant dragon bamboo swaying in the wind.

Zhu Xingguo relieved himself and turned to look at Xi Huai sitting on the grass covered with animal skins.

The arm was lightly patted, and when I looked back, it was my aunt.

When Zhu Yanqu came, he boiled water and poured it into the bamboo tube, brought three of them, and one of them had been drunk.

Zhu Yanqu leaned into his ear and whispered.

Zhu Xingguo listened, took the bamboo tube, and walked towards Xi Huai, "Uncle, drink water." ”

Zhou Dongsheng also looked at Zhu Yanqu with a blank eye.

Zhu Yanqu rubbed his forehead, smiled lightly, and opened a small jar in the bamboo basket.

Take out a roasted sweet potato from it, and there is still some residual warmth.

handed it to Zhou Dongsheng and said softly, "Go ahead." ”

Zhou Dongsheng wiped his hands with a wet handkerchief, held the roasted sweet potato, and walked in front of Xi Huai, who smiled gently, "Uncle, give it, the roasted sweet potato is delicious." ”

Xi Huai stretched out his hand to take it, "Okay." ”

He tasted the water sent by Zhu Xingguo, with a hint of sweetness, and the sweet potato was also sweet.

Zhu Xingguo took a small bite of the roasted sweet potato, and after eating, he went to Xi Huai, "Uncle, I can leave by myself later." ”

Xi Huai raised his hand and tapped the tip of his nose, "Okay." ”

Zhou Dongsheng walked over, although he didn't speak, he showed a sweet smile to Xi Huai.

Before Gu Huayue finished eating the roasted sweet potato in her hand, she walked over with her calves, and she smiled ignorantly.

Before she could stand still, she was fished over by a pair of slender hands, and looking back at her aunt, she grinned, "Auntie." ”

Zhu Yanqu was worried that Gu Huayue was afraid of some small insects on the ground, so he picked her up, pointed at her little nose, and whispered.

"No matter where you are, don't move around while eating."

"Mmmm," Gu Huayue nodded her chin and took a small bite of the roasted sweet potato, her eyebrows and eyes crooked.

-

After resting almost, Xi Huai lifted the basket and hung it on his shoulder.

looked at the bamboo basket and led Gu Huayue's Zhu Yanqu.

In front of her were the spirited Zhu Xingguo and Zhou Dongsheng, the two held hands with each other and walked steadily.

was also about to reach the destination, Xi Huai's pace slowed down, turned his head to look at Zhu Yanqu, and smiled gently.

"I heard Sanniang say that you promised to cook, this matter of picking and cleaning the ingredients, hand it over to me Sanniang and Yaoyao, Xiao Ran, Chai He has my arrangement, girl, you are responsible for cooking."

Zhu Yanqu was unexpected, turned his head to look at him, and a beam of bright light sprinkled down, shining on his side face.

"Do as you have arranged, and I will obey the command."

Xi Huai's response to her was also quite shocked.

He thought for a moment and whispered, "I originally wanted to build it in place, but I just encountered something." ”

Zhu Yanqu noticed that his pace slowed down a lot, and his steps also slowed down, "What's the matter?" ”

No longer in a hurry, Zhu Yanqu was not so flustered.

Xi Huai's eyes were slightly dark, his gaze was straight ahead, and his voice was hoarse, "In this incident, I saw the behavior of some people clearly, and my eldest brother wanted to stay away, and he was not upset when he couldn't see him." ”

Hearing him mention Xi Quan, in his mind, his figure appeared, covered in blood, as if coming out of a sea of blood, only the bamboo jade pendant on his waist and his eyes were clean and transparent.

Zhu Yanqu looked ahead, "Well, it's okay to stay away." ”

"Ten miles apart, he only goes back and forth to the county government to deal with the contradictions between the Han, Liangwan, and Yuli tribes, and get along with each other, so that he can have a clean night at night."

After Xi Huai finished speaking, there was a shallow smile on the corner of his lips, and he tilted his head to look at Zhu Yanqu, "In the future, if there are some things between the neighbors, you can solve them as soon as possible." ”

Zhu Yanqu raised his eyes and inadvertently saw his gaze, with a different look in his eyes.

Eyes widened, chin tapped, just walked the path under your feet, "Hmm." ”

Xi Huai pondered for a moment, and then said something, "There are more than 400 families who have built houses here, and it has been built for a long time, so it is hard for the girls and children to live in simple dwellings. ”

About 400 households? The population of Yuli and Liangwan is almost 500 people, plus the residents of the destroyed bamboo houses in Zhaohua Village have moved over.

Zhu Yanqu felt that his breathing was not very smooth, his throat was a little blocked, and his eyes were soaked in sweat and sour and hot.

The ancients were busy and busy, just to survive, and in a particularly difficult environment, it was difficult to move an inch, but they firmly believed that they could get out of a world.

The gray and blue screen of the [Treasure Pavilion] always flashes in front of me, and there is a red dot in the upper right corner, always wanting to see it, but being blocked by the current situation.

When I looked at the seeds in the [Treasure Pavilion] before, the time spent on it could be two or three hours, and when it was changed to the time of the Orthodox National Period, it could be five to six hours.

You have to be completely idle and have enough time to go and see.

I have been suppressing the urge to see, and my heart is painful, but there is hope.

A little distracted, and the elbow was gently touched by Yan Qiaoxin.

"Yanqu, there is a stream ahead, watch your step."

The closer to the destination, the better Yan Qiaoxin's mood became.

"Okay," Zhu Yanqu retracted his thoughts, paying attention to the path under his feet, the irregular stones, and some pebbles that were round and uneven.

The murmuring of the stream, from the northwest, mixed with the gentle sound of the wind, blew to my ears.

Boredom and tired, giving days without return, Zhu Yanqu stepped on stones, crossed the stream, and looked at the stream that slipped down.

When a person goes to a higher place, the water naturally flows lower and goes where it should go.

Xi Huai first took Lin Su, Shen Ran, and Xi Yao to the shore, stepped on the muddy water of a shoe, and waited for him to turn back.

Zhu Yanqu, who had returned to his senses, had already hugged Gu Huayue, Zhu Xingguo, and Zhou Dongsheng ashore.

She folded back and lifted the bamboo basket in the middle of the stream.

In the green forest, the leaves fall with the wind, and in the dazzling light, look at her petite figure.

Stepping on the stones, she is a daughter, hard-working, practical, not impetuous, and not pretentious at all.

When she came ashore, he whispered, "Walk for a quarter of an hour or so, and you'll be there." ”

Zhu Yanqu nodded slightly, and there was a slight smile on his calm face.

Hold Gu Huayue's hand tightly, and look back at the tired and smiling words on her face.

Yan Qiaoxin was overjoyed, "It's finally here, the three of them can have a good rest in Xingguo, and you can relax a lot." ”

As soon as the words fell, I heard the sound of bamboo collapsing in the giant dragon bamboo forest in the north and south directions.

The bright light was too dazzling, Zhu Yanqu raised his hand in front of his forehead, and squinted his eyes to see the people carrying bamboo in the giant dragon bamboo forest in the north and south directions.

Judging from the clothing, it is the Yuli clan and the Liangwan clan, and only they will drape the whole burlap on their bodies.

The clansmen carrying the giant dragon bamboo came out of the bamboo forest one after another, and their direction was not to the designated location to build the house.

Instead, he looked at the big river with the sound of a river, and under the hot sun, he raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead.
