In the end, he left Da Rui before the end of this year, although he could still see the city wall of Dingbei Pass on the top of the mountain at this moment, but he still left.

Thinking about it, this little half a year is also stumbling.

From leaving home in early autumn to the present in winter.

Xu Changsheng walked a path that he couldn't have imagined before, and he also saw scenery that he couldn't have imagined before.

There are laughter, rushes, and escapes along the way, and most of the time it seems to be running for your life. Thinking of this, Xu Changsheng couldn't help but smile bitterly, during this journey of Da Rui, he really seemed to be exhausted all the time.

From the beginning of meeting the Lin family brothers and sisters, and then to the later trip to Tianwu Palace, he accidentally entered the broken secret realm, although he was lucky to come out alive and got a benefit, but in the end, he exchanged his life for it. After that, I met Hong Nanlan, chasing and killing all the way, running all the way.

But fortunately, he still came out of Da Rui alive, and he broke through one after another, with such a strong physique. Yes, now even Xu Changsheng can feel the strength of his body now, especially after the power of the stars is quenched, and after talking and laughing and walking on the banks of the big river, he can clearly feel the strength of his body.

Not to mention anything else, with his current fifty percent of the realm of exchanging blood, the monks who have entered the Xuan Realm are really not enough for a few punches for themselves.

As for the middle three realms further up, it's hard to say.

After all, the famous saying "Dancheng Mountain is a guest, but there is no chance to be a ghost under the tree" is not in vain.

And once that Dao cultivator broke through to the Dan state of mind, there were many means, not to mention for the time being, just that one-handed cloud escape technique made Xu Changsheng uncomfortable for a while. Just like the fox bone just now, if he met Xu Changsheng, who did not subdue the demon, or did not subdue the demon, he would be able to escape.

With that one-handed method of driving the clouds, Xu Changsheng really couldn't catch up.

But he didn't expect that Xu Changsheng would have a magic weapon that was stronger than that soldier, and even a far more powerful treasure.

And the avenue fights, what is fighting is this trace of "unexpected", whoever "didn't expect" more, who can live well.

"Old Xu, let's say okay, today's Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, I'll put it in order for you." ”

The young man who was flipping through a recipe suddenly stood up, interrupted his musings with a hearty laugh.

Xu Changsheng nodded with a smile while warming his injured right hand.

Xue Nan was obviously really happy, and his eyebrows flew and he said loudly: "Today's meal, I won't be ugly, but I know a new way to eat, I guarantee that you haven't eaten it, Lao Xu." ”

"Oh?"

As soon as he heard that Xue Nan did not cook, Xu Changsheng became interested, otherwise today's Chinese New Year's Eve dinner would definitely be another torture.

Xue Nan put away the recipe and said as he walked in the heavy snow: "I'm going to make it today, you definitely love to eat it." And I promise I haven't eaten it. ”

Xu Changsheng stretched out his hands and looked at him with a smile.

Xue Nan instantly understood, glanced at him with disdain, and continued: "Today's thing is a popular food in Fengzhou and Wuzhou, called 'Gu Dong Soup', also called 'Warm Pot', how about it?"

Xu Changsheng frowned and thought about it, he really hadn't heard of it.

"Okay, let my Chef Xue show his hand today, and you Xu boy can just make a move. Xue Nan waved his hand, extremely heroic.

Xu Changsheng is also happy, what is more happy than seeing the people around him happy?

Xue Nan waved his hand, "Cook!"

Then the figure floated up and swept towards the snowy forest in the distance.

Xu Changsheng didn't know what he was going to do, so he took care of what he had to do.

I took out the iron pot that I used to cook in my daily life from the mustard seeds, and I took out the grill I bought at the market. No matter what, it is better to guard against it, if the food made by Xue Nan is still very "Xue Nan", he will not starve himself on this Chinese New Year's Eve.

While waiting for him, Xu Changsheng took out some beef and mutton he had bought before from the mustard seeds, cut them into small pieces on the board, and skewered them one by one with iron skewers. After all, walking the rivers and lakes, this thing is indispensable.

Just when Xu Changsheng prepared a large number of barbecue skewers in the heavy snow, Xue Nan returned in the snow in the darkening sky, carrying a wild boar that was still moving, saying that it was a wild boar, it was not like it, after all, the hair on his body was upside down, mixed with scale armor, and there was a demonic aura floating on his body.

Far away, Xue Nan threw the unknown demon beast at Xu Changsheng.

The demon beast was still in the air, and as soon as he raised his hand, the void spiritual power condensed and the snowflakes gathered, turned into a snow arrow and broke through the air, passing through the head of the demon beast, and finally fell in front of Xu Changsheng, and he couldn't die anymore.

"Lao Xu, go and clean it up!"

But when he came over and saw the large pile of skewers in front of Xu Changsheng, he also understood, and said angrily: "Old Xu, let me tell you, don't believe me, I'll let you open your eyes today." ”

Xu Changsheng smiled and nodded continuously.

Next, Xue Nan summoned a large bucket of water with the water method, and heated it with the fire method for Xu Changsheng to cut and wash the dishes.

Xu Changsheng's heart warmed, and he didn't say anything.

"Just now I saw a small village at the foot of this mountain, and a large vegetable garden, don't say, there is nothing else in that village, there are indeed a lot of vegetables in this winter. ”

Xue Nan said as he took out a bunch of fresh vegetables with soil from the mustard seeds, and there were many types, such as radish, Chinese cabbage, and oily lettuce.

Xu Changsheng was cleaning up the fur and scale armor of the demon beast, and just as he wanted to speak, Xue Nan seemed to expect it, "Don't worry, you have given them all the money, and I have given them more, but I haven't given too much, after all, the wealth is moving." ”

Xu Changsheng smiled and nodded, "The best!"

After processing these ingredients, the vegetables were cut into large and small pieces and put aside, and on the other side was the meat of the unknown monster that was cut into a suitable size.

It was getting late, and the snow never stopped.

Except for the large area vacated by the two of them with the formation, in other places, the snow has long been below their knees.

Xu Changsheng is not good at things like making fires, setting up the boiler, Xue Nan smiled and picked up a spell, and the fire under it burst into flames.

The firelight reflected their faces, dispelling the darkness and adding warmth to the snow-covered hill.

The town under the mountain is gradually lit up with thousands of lights, flickering in this night, and there are some lights in the distance, perhaps the mountain village. The flames around him rose, and Xu Changsheng was roasting the fire with his hands in his sleeves, while watching the fireworks in the world on the top of this mountain.

looked at the friend on the opposite side who was constantly adjusting the bottom of the fiery red pot, so even in this far away country, Xu Changsheng did not feel lonely.

Looking up at the dark night, the moon was missing, and I always felt that something was missing.

"Let's eat!"

Xue Nan suddenly shouted, then bit the chopsticks in his mouth, and said vaguely: "Lao Xu, why are you still stunned, hurry up and get rid of the food." ”

As he spoke, he kept picking up the vegetables and meat and pouring them into the cauldron.

"This meat has to be boiled for a long time, but this dish will be fine if you put it in for a while, and it won't taste good after a long time. ”

Xue Nan explained.

Xu Changsheng did the same, and then put some food in it.

Water vapor is constantly rising from the pot, even if it is just across a large cauldron, but the other party is a little blurry when it looks at it.

It didn't take long for Xue Nan to pick up a vegetable leaf from the pot, take a few bites, and say while sighing: "Okay, Lao Xu, you can start eating." ”

Xu Changsheng laughed and threw over a pot of wine, and scooped up another vegetable leaf.

As soon as he entered his mouth, Xu Changsheng's eyes lit up, and he had to say that this way of eating was really good, and the spicy spicy at the bottom of the pot burst out in his mouth, which made his appetite great.

"Come, Lao Xu, let's go!"

"Okay!"

The fire is full of water vapor, and the snow goose feathers are fluttering.

The two of them collided with their flasks.

This time, Xu Changsheng didn't tuck it, he drank a big gulp, and just as he swallowed the drink, the town under the mountain set off fireworks at the right time.

They were at a great height, not even as high as the fireworks, but they exploded at the bottom of the mountain.

"Nan, it's the New Year. ”

Xue Nanmei took a sip of wine and meat, and said vaguely: "Yes, it's the New Year." ”

After saying that, I seemed to think of something.

"It's been a long time since my dad left. ”

Xue Nan smiled bitterly.

Xu Changsheng nodded, so to speak, in fact, he is better, at least every time Chinese New Year's Eve, Mrs. He will ask herself to have a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner for various reasons.

Thinking of this, I don't know what happened to Aunt He, it should be very unaccustomed to leaving her alone at home during the Chinese New Year this year. I still travel early, and it is better to go back to accompany my aunt after traveling, after all, she is also old, and it is not good to leave her alone at home.

Xu Changsheng scratched his head and asked, "Nan, what are you going to the north for?"

A question he always wanted to ask but didn't ask, he just knew that Xue Nan was also going to the north and the place he was going to was not far from Xiong Youfu's broken army gate, but he didn't know what he was going to do.

Xue Nan took a sip of wine, and said calmly in the steam: "I'll go find my mother." ”

"Your mother?"

I've only heard Xue Nan talk about his father, but I've never heard him talk about his mother. Xu Changsheng even thought that she was no longer there, and he didn't know until Xue Nan himself said it today.

Xue Nan nodded, "Yes, she went back to her parents' house soon after she gave birth to me, and my father has been lying to me that my mother died when she gave birth to me, and I have always thought so, so I have been thinking that I am a motherless child for the past eighteen years." ”

He smiled self-deprecatingly, "It wasn't until last year, when I became an adult, that my husband suddenly gave me a letter and a jade pendant, saying that my father gave it to him before he died, and asked him to give it to me when I became an adult." ”

"I also read the letter to find out, it turned out that my mother was not dead at all, but went back to her parents' house, and for some reason she never came to see our grandfather. So my father also said in the letter that it was up to me whether I wanted to go to my mother or not, and said that if she didn't come, there must be her troubles, so let me not blame her. ”

Xu Changsheng also took a sip of wine after hearing this, "There should be a hardship, otherwise I wouldn't have never come back." ”

Xue Nan still nodded flatly, not showing any joy or anger, "It should be, so I just wanted to go and see what she was worried about, and I didn't even come back to take a look at it when my father left." ”

Xu Changsheng smiled suddenly, and said while adding firewood to the fire: "You're okay, I can't even remember what my father and mother look like." ”

Xue Nan turned his head to look at him through the swirling water vapor.

Xu Changsheng shook his head, "I'm from Nanfeng Town, the place you call the Void Realm. ”

Xue Nan smiled: "I guessed it a long time ago, and I've been waiting for you to say it." ”

"But why weren't you taken away by those immortal sects? I heard that your younger generation was accepted by those big forces as the ancestors of the ancestral hall, and they also have a nice name, what is the 'immortal path seed'. ”

Xu Changsheng smiled bitterly: "It's longer to say this." ”

Xue Nan raised the wine jug to him when he heard it, and said with a smile: "Then say it slowly, I still have wine here." ”

Xu Changsheng laughed and scooped up a piece of cooked meat, "Then speak slowly." ”

The formation shrouded the sound of the two of them talking, so there was only the sound of snowflakes falling to the ground on the top of this mountain, which was very small, but the whole mountain was connected together with a refreshing rustle. The town below the mountain is still lit up, and there are occasional fireworks to disperse a large part of the night in the night sky.

Next to the fire, the two pushed cups and changed lamps.

What was in the glass was something called memory, and perhaps many years later, the two of them would be able to recall.

It was the first Chinese New Year's Eve the two spent together, eating a delicacy called "bone Dong soup" and drinking Xianjia wine.

That night, heavy snow covered the mountain.
