144. Parting
When Aunt Mei woke up in the morning, her mind sensed that there was an extra creature on the hill, and her breath was very strong.
The tiger demon has left, and the new musk demon has never dared to set foot on the hill, who is outside?
When Lang Feng left, he said that the battle at Lingtao Peak would end early, and he was only waiting for the peaches to ripen, and it was only the last few days.
Her heart beat violently, she grabbed the door latch in a few steps, her hand just touched it, and then she paused sharply, turned back to the wooden basin, first scooped water into the basin, cleaned her face, and then lifted the fallen bronze mirror, and the scattered long hair was straightened out and tied together.
After looking carefully, and then smoothing the dress, he took off the latch and pushed the door out.
The deer demon sat on the edge of the hill, blowing the mountain wind, quietly looking at the village below.
From the side, the long cheeks are still just as ugly.
Zhang Meigu laughed out loud.
Only then did the deer demon look back and look at her pretty face, which was no different from thirteen years.
Seeing that she couldn't stop laughing, the deer demon was very strange and asked, "What's so funny?"
Aunt Mei put down her covered mouth and pointed at his head with a chuckle: "How can you paint your hair color so ......?"
"Weird?"
The deer demon said the words himself, Zhang Meigu nodded, lifted the corner of her skirt lightly, and walked to sit down next to him.
The white-haired deer is really conspicuous, and she is in a hurry, and she will find fruit pulp in the field to smear, of course, she will find it weird.
However, his own face can't be added at all at present, so what if he adds some weirdness.
Zhang Meigu sat closer, the fragrance was stronger, the deer demon glanced at her quickly, did not dare to look at it again, and turned her head to pay attention to the rising cooking smoke, the rooster and the dog barking, the woman scolding, and the farmer calling the cow in the village at the foot of the mountain.
Compared with when I first saw it more than 20 years ago, the firewood wall in Pojiao Village has been expanded by a section, there are 20 or 30 more houses, and there are more newly cultivated fields further afield.
The mountain wind blew her hair, fluttering on her cheeks and nostrils, and her itchy heart was crisp.
Sitting beside him like this, basking in the morning sun and blowing the mountain breeze together, my heart is stable, and I feel so good.
One person, one demon, one man and one woman, no one spoke.
It wasn't until the hen in the chicken cage "clucked", thinking that it was laying an egg and wanted to show off begging for food, that Zhang Meigu jumped up regretfully, went back to the house to grab two handfuls of chaff, and appeased the chickens before throwing them into the cage.
After washing his hands, he remembered the raspberries in the big tent behind the house, went around again, picked a large handful, and sent it to the deer demon like a treasure: "Here you go!"
The deer demon grabbed most of the handfuls, threw them into his mouth one by one, and savored them.
Zhang Meigu also twisted a few pieces from the rest into her mouth, and the sweet and sour taste was extremely good.
Tasting the wild fruits picked by Aunt Mei, the deer demon asked, "When did you advance, why don't you tell me?"
Zhang Meigu responded: "It's been three or four years, and I want to tell you in person, but I didn't write it in the letter, is Boeing okay?"
"Killed in battle!"
Zhang Meigu was gloomy, and after a while, she asked, "Isn't it easy for monsters to survive?"
The deer demon nodded: "It's not easy to make a living here, I want to move to the west, I'm here to ask you today, would you like to be with me?"
Unexpectedly, he was also leaving, Aunt Mei took a breath, shook her head and said, "I'm going to leave too!"
The deer demon frowned and turned his head, and Zhang Meigu looked at him: "Jin is a Qi Refiner, I don't write to tell you, I also want to wait for you to come and say goodbye to you!"
"It's okay, there's always a way to go!"
The four eyes looked at each other, but the monster with the roe head rat couldn't stand it first, and then twisted away, and the woman's voice sounded faintly:
"We human races are not all rural places like Pojiao Village, there are officials in the city, and there are emperors in the big cities, although they are all under the control of the monk sect, they also have their own rules. In our rural areas, women dare to have an affair with demons, demons, ghosts, and monsters, and if the government does not come to punish the crime, the villagers will drown if they spit, and scold the woman for not being ashamed and shameless. My father was a sour pedant before his death, he taught morality all his life, and he couldn't tolerate the slightest stigma, so he was killed by some rumors, if I follow you, he will be angry again when he hears it in the spirit of heaven!"
The deer demon really wants to say that your father's soul should have dissipated with the wind, and he didn't become a ghost.
"You are a demon, I am a human, we can't be... together, my father doesn't allow it, and I can't get over the hurdle in my heart, but...... You can stay tonight, just as... I owe you for decades!"
The deer demon turned around in surprise again, this time it was the woman's turn to put her chin on her chest, her ears were red, and she finished the next words: "I have met, I will leave tomorrow, and from now on I will go to find a teacher and visit the Tao, and I must always rely on myself and seek justice before I am willing!"
Seeing her shyness, the deer demon's mouth was dry for a while, and his heart was beating "thump", and after a long rest, he asked with difficulty: "What do you mean, do you never see each other in the future?"
Aunt Mei made a "hmm" in her nose, and said: "My father once said that life is always difficult and death is easy in the world, even if you and I are separated from each other from now on, even if it is difficult, we will live well, you can rest assured, I ...... You will never get married in the future! You go and ask for a monster to live a good life!"
The deer demon stood up, extremely irritable, and walked over with heavy footsteps on the post, and walked over again.
walked back and forth three times before he stomped his foot fiercely: "What do you mean, Xu I will be an old deer for one night, and I will never see each other again in the future?"
Hearing him ask again, Aunt Mei was red-faced, but she nodded strongly: "You are also going to walk for a mile, who knows how many mountains and rivers will be separated?
The deer demon's face turned hideous, and he said viciously: "Then I don't want the old deer, there will be a chance to meet in the future?"
Aunt Mei raised her head, the red tide on her face had not receded, but she had changed to a stunned appearance.
The deer demon asked again: "Old deer doesn't want it tonight, but there is still a chance to meet?"
Zhang Meigu didn't know whether to nod or shake her head, the deer demon stared at her, suddenly smiled "haha", turned around and went down the hill behind the hill, and said loudly as she walked: "Don't!"
The word "don't" was said many times in a row, and Aunt Mei walked to this hill and watched him leave blankly, and two lines of tears fell silently.
Walking to the foot of the mountain, I don't know what to think, the deer demon suddenly turned back and pounced on it like a gust of wind!
What did he come back for?
Zhang Meigu grabbed her heart and breathed rapidly.
When he went down the mountain, he was slow, but he pounced back but quickly became a shadow line, and in a few breaths, the deer demon had pounced in front of him, and said urgently: "I almost forgot, the interest must be collected first!"
"Ahh Hmm..."
There were goshawks hovering in the sky looking for prey, and ants crawling over the instep of the ground after a while, and after a while, the deer demon spread his hand in satisfaction, "hehe" smiled, and turned down the mountain again, this time the footsteps were floating.
Seeing him on the way down the mountain, the two hands were still alternately put to the tip of his nose to sniff, Zhang Meigu stomped on the hill, gritted her teeth and scolded: ", can't you keep the salute to the end?"
After scolding, I remembered that "God kills" is the mantra of the mother-in-law in the village scolding the man, and he is already a monk, so he should be jealous of eloquence, and this kind of scolding is a bit ...... Inappropriate!
——
Returning to Jingping Mountain, the deer demon reported that her outer room had agreed to move in, but she would not pick it up until she packed up her belongings and said goodbye to her relatives.
On the first full moon night back to the mountain, Lu Bao randomly selected ten little demons to enter the Ding, and on the second day, he went to the south of the mountain field to select the address of the new tea garden.
Listening to the deer demon's report on the approximate topography, he knew that the selected place was more than thirty miles away from the border, it was a gentle slope, surrounded by a large area of lush trees, and the tea tree species were not conspicuous here, so he nodded in agreement.
The wood ghost followed the demon Ding Sixi, Lang Jun's previous personal demon Ding Wangchuan has died in the war, but the black bull died, he personally followed the demon Ding Yuan Cun to survive, the tea garden is now fat, in order to block the mouth of the other, the demon king appointed Yuan Cun as the tea gardener steward, for the deer demon Baibao to manage the mountain tea garden, Baibao went out to open up a new tea garden.
The deer demon can't be promoted to the demon general in sixty years, and when he negotiated with him to open up a new tea garden for harvest, although the words were euphemistic and beautiful, and patted his chest to guarantee, he only gave the same as the old tea garden in Benshan, two bowls of tea in spring and summer, and two purple potatoes in autumn and winter.
Lu Bao is already determined to leave, where will he make a tea garden for him, he doesn't care about the amount he gives at all, but he is afraid that the demon king will be suspicious, so he just complains a few words, but takes the opportunity to ask for the ten drops of essence blood he promised before.
In fact, the ambush demon general failed in the end, but this deer still needs to be coaxed, and Shui Yi also nodded in agreement, and rewarded ten drops as a comfort.
On the day of moving the tea garden, the deer demon deliberately went to find the painting snake and chatted with him for a long time, but for him, no matter how good the friendship was, he didn't dare to confide in his intention to escape like the big horn, after all, he was the demon king's confidant.
Other demons, Lu Bao felt that the friendship was not in place, so he didn't look for anyone again.
Quan Ding moved to the new tea garden, and had to work hard to transplant tea all over the mountain, and the old plague naturally complained behind his back, although the old man did not put the old man in front of them, before he was promoted to the demon ding, he did not dare to disobey the order of the steward, and he had to be flattered by Xiao Yi in person, and he chose to be obedient.
The tea gardener is fat, and there are many opportunities to make tea for the second time, and the ten little demons who are new to Ding are all happy, all different from the old plague and lazy.
On the first day of the new tea garden, the deer demon said to the little demons: "The wild tea trees from the north to the mountain are all kept and moved to the mountain in the future, and you can only look for them in the south!"
The south to the border is only more than 30 miles away, ten days of hard work will be difficult to find, wait for the little demons to report, the south has been difficult to find, tomorrow to change the direction to find, the deer demon said: "The long in their own mountain field, always in the bowl, when there is nothing to do, you can also let other little demons pick tea, then all moved, the mountain field has not gained much benefit, but the outside of the ownerless land is long, think about it is a pity, wait for me to go tomorrow and the king to say, dig the borderless land first!"
In the early morning of the second day, he changed to tell Fill Water B, and Fill Water B also agreed, but he was worried that the monk would catch the tea tree demon to plant a spell, Lu Bao said: "The monk caught the little demon seed spell, it was originally only once or twice in ten years, and now the matter of the three monks in Ziyunguan has been known by the Xuantian Sect, and they all know that several of us are still guarding against the idea of mantras, and they have not calculated well, where can they come out at this time? If the king is not at ease, he will see the little demon in my Ding once in two or three months, only fifteen little demons, it is not a trouble!"
