The cold and snow of the spring are not dispersed, and the rain and the early wind and the mountains and rivers are warm.

Outside Jinzhou, in the spicy fragrance of large grasses, people can already feel that everything is recovering vigorously.

Wake up with the seedlings in the spring fields and the weeping willows on the banks of the river...... The sun shone warmly on their still slender and delicate bodies, glowing with crystal color, like a young girl stretching in the spring breeze, unabashedly enchanting her own lines.

Two sturdy horses trampled across the flat official road and rushed into the lush meadows with joy, the hills undulating in the distance, and the laughter of a man and a woman intertwined with each other.

"Hurry up, hurry, if you can't catch up, you should learn how to bark a puppy." Although it was a women's dress, Cai Yan's posture sitting on the war horse was calm and relaxed, and the horse under her crotch was like a wind, with her skirt fluttering, she turned to look at Qin Ke, her eyes were full of smiles, "Puppy, puppy, puppy!"

"Don't be complacent, I'm not going to lose this time. Qin Ke gritted his teeth and chased hard behind, but he felt more and more powerless.

In fact, when Cai Yan first proposed to him to race horses, he still felt that he was a cultivator after all, and he had learned equestrianism in Jingwu's Taixue Hall for a few days, and he was afraid that he would win too easily and make Cai Yan unhappy.

However, it wasn't until he actually started racing that he realized how stupid his idea was.

Cai Yan in front of him, where is a weak girl who can't take care of herself? She is simply a brave female general who dominates the world on horses!

In equestrian alone, he was almost completely at a disadvantage, losing three battles and three losses. If this was in the gambling house, he would probably have lost so much that he was only left with his pants.

But even so, every time he lost to Cai Yan, he had to learn to bark in front of her, and the sound of "Wangwang" made him blush.

It's time to get back on your feet!

Qin Ke looked at the back that was constantly approaching, the reins of the horse in his hand were tightened more and more, and he thought with some excitement: This time I have to convince you to lose.

Fifteen Steps...... Ten Steps...... Five-step ......

The slender figure in front of him continued to amplify in front of him, and the sound of the horse's hooves became louder and louder in Qin Ke's ears, his heart beat more and more rapidly, he could hear the same heavy breathing of the war horse, and knew that the war horse should have been driven to the limit by Cai Yan.

But so what? The two agreed to end at the pine tree in front of them, and as long as he could surpass Cai Yan before then, he could wave the flag and cheer.

"It's close...... Closer......" At this moment, the two war horses finally went hand in hand, Qin Ke's eyes seemed to light up with a white light, he clearly saw Cai Yan's side face, and he almost shouted with joy.

However, at this moment, Cai Yan's clear laughter came from his ears.

The laughter only flashed in his ears, but her figure swept past Qin Ke like a wind, sweeping all the way forward, the loud neighing of horses woke Qin Ke, and what appeared in front of him was Cai Yan's figure that kept moving away.

She even has the strength to spare!

Qin Ke looked at Cai Yan's back, and finally felt frustrated and powerless, it seemed that not only chess skills and mathematics, but also his equestrian skills, he would never be Cai Yan's opponent......

The pine trees were getting closer and closer, Cai Yan took the lead, did not leave him any chance, and won the victory in one fell swoop, and suddenly, her laughter was like a crisp birdsong in spring, constantly echoing among the mountains and forests.

"Cai Yan......" Qin Ke rode to her side with a sigh of relief, and said with a wry smile: "You win, you win, alas...... Obviously a girl's family, but your riding skills can catch up with those generals in the Jing Wu army, I really don't know how you did it. ”

"Hmph, who said that the girl's family can't ride a horse?" Cai Yan made a gesture to whip him with a horse, and smiled brightly, "General Mulan of the Great Wall, Sister Da Qiao, the lord of Qunfang, the two of them are even more powerful than me, our girl's family is serious, you men can only count this!"

She gave her little thumbs up and gestured twice at Qin Ke.

Qin Ke couldn't cry or laugh, so he could only say: "Okay, I shouldn't underestimate you, I am convinced, it seems that I will really have to call you Cai Nuxia in the future." ”

"Cai Nuxia, of course you can call it, but at this time, even if you please me, it's useless. Cai Yan looked at Qin Ke narrowly, "What should you do if you say yes and lose?" Do you want me to remind you?"

"You ......" Qin Ke was stunned, he didn't expect that the little Jiujiu in his heart was seen through by Cai Yan, and finally blushed, pondered for a moment, and finally spoke: "Wang ...... Woo Woo ......"

After learning how to bark, he lowered his head with a flushed face, and didn't dare to look at Cai Yan again.

"Hahahaha......" Cai Yan laughed heartily, the range of movements was so large that people even worried about whether she would fall off the horse in the next moment, but her equestrian skills were exquisite, no matter what kind of movements she made on the horse, she could stop firmly on the horse's back.

In fact, Cai Yan didn't care about Qin Ke learning to bark a dog, but every time she saw Qin Ke eating deflated, she felt very funny, and she wanted to bully him at every turn.

Moreover, the two of them went out of the city alone this time, Gao Yishui still stayed in Jinzhou to watch the refining of the Five Elements Sinan, so naturally he couldn't follow him, and no one would help Qin Ke.

Listening to the undisguised laughter, Qin Ke weakly showed an aggrieved expression, as if he had been greatly wronged, his head drooped, and the whole person was about to fall on the back of the horse.

After Cai Yan stopped laughing, she blinked curiously, looked at the neatly divided fields in the valley and the farmhouse that was burning with cooking smoke, and said, "This is where you lived before?"

Hearing this, Qin Ke also raised his head slightly, looking at Qianmo Longmu not far away, with a smile as clear as the sun on his face.

He smelled familiar smells, paddy fields, fish ponds, waterwheels, and cooking smoke in the mountains...... Everything is still the way it was in the old days, and the majestic mountains that surround him are like a kind and kind mother, thinking of the long-lost warm embrace to him.

This is the land that has nurtured him for many years, and it is here that he has spent the most peaceful and happy days of his life, and even in these days of his absence, he has already deeply felt his poverty and loneliness - but so what?

Even if a person is rich all over the world, he still needs a house that carries his relatives, with a group of familiar people by his side, who can sit at a table and eat lively.

Qin Ke still has the purest love and attachment to this place, so much so that he has dreamed of those rough but simple smiling faces countless times.

He couldn't hold back his excitement, and the previous embarrassment and grievances were swept away, and he nodded: "Sort of, not long after I was picked up by the master, we have been living here." ”

And this time he came back, not for any special reason, just because Cai Yan was really bored in Jinzhou, shouting to go out to play, Qin Ke simply took advantage of the beginning of spring to mention to Yinxue that he wanted to go back to his hometown to see, anyway, there are horses of public losers, and it won't take much time.

Originally, Gongyi Ren heard that Qin Ke planned to "return to his hometown to visit relatives", and considered letting Gongyi Yinxue accompany him, although Zhuge Wolong is no longer in Daoxiang Village now that his whereabouts are unknown, but it is also polite to follow Qin Ke back to his hometown.

However, Gong Yiren didn't know what he thought later, so he didn't let Gong Yinxue leave, and only let Qin Ke arrange his own return to his hometown.

Gao Yishui stayed in the public loser, on the one hand, he still needs to continue to stabilize the public loser, always pay attention to balance the relationship between him and the public Yinxue, on the other hand, he also needs to keep an eye on the progress of the Five Elements Sinan smelting.

Abu stayed behind to protect Gao Yishui, although spiritual cultivators were powerful, they had a huge flaw, that is, their bodies were often not as strong as qi and blood cultivators, and if they were broken into within ten steps by qi and blood cultivators, ordinary spiritual cultivators would not be able to resist at all.

Therefore, many spiritual cultivators will choose strong samurai to accompany them for protection, and the family will even arrange qi and blood cultivators as their solid barriers.

Qin Ke didn't like to walk with the team all the way with great fanfare, so this time when he returned to his hometown, Qin Ke only walked with Cai Yan, and it was nearly a month since they came out.

The road down the mountain was not very easy, so the two of them no longer rode on horseback, but led the horse all the way, with a few flying insects fluttering on the ridges, and the dog's tail grass had begun to emerge from the grass with its hairy head.

Cai Yan took off a handful and rubbed it in his hand, but he didn't play twice, but he was gnawed clean by the horse that was a little hungry all the way.

With a smile on his face, Qin Ke stuffed some fresh grass for the horse, and a little further along, his eyes suddenly lit up.

"Uncle Ji!"

The back that is not unfamiliar is still the same, and the not broad shoulders still make people see his cowardice at a glance - in fact, Uncle Ji has been living in the "shadow" of Aunt Qing for so many years, and caution has long become his norm.

He stood in the field, his trouser legs rolled up to his thighs, his legs deep in the mud, carefully examining the seedlings that had just been planted.

At first, Uncle Ji was still a little weird, he only felt that the voice calling him was a little familiar, and then thought about it carefully, wasn't this the voice of Qin Ke's kid at the beginning?

So he didn't turn his head, just smiled, and said to himself: "How do you dream in broad daylight, didn't Ah Ke go south to Jingwu......"

It's just that the voice is still shouting, Uncle Ji finally showed a suspicious expression, in order to make sure that there is no problem with his ears or brain, he slowly straightened his waist, turned his head to look, and was so shocked that he almost fell into the field.

"Ahh......h Ah Ke, it's you back!" Uncle Ji clapped his hands, laughed loudly, jumped from the muddy field to the ridge with both legs, and ran towards Qin Ke, his somewhat aging heart was beating like a young man at this moment, full of joy.

It's just that when he got closer and closer to Qin Ke, he hesitated a little under his feet, and when he arrived in front of Qin Ke, his face was already a little shocked......
