Tao Yuan checked them one by one with a silver needle and said, "It's all right!

"Delicious!"

"It tastes good!"

"Smell good, eat delicious! This is your life, you are so happy!"

Tao Yuan is a person who has tasted all kinds of mountain delicacies, and feels that the food of the army of the Alpine Country is really good, with the level of a chef. Seeing the two women praising while eating, I couldn't help but slow down, and said in my heart: It seems that the two girls have not eaten anything good before, and they are living a miserable life. The expression in his eyes couldn't help but soften a lot. What he didn't know was that Weidiya had lived a hard life, but Marika was not, but the food was just very suitable for her taste.

Marika felt his gaze, wiped her mouth with her sleeve, and said angrily, "What do you see, do I have flowers on my face?"

Tao Yuan smiled and said, "No." Seeing how well you ate, I remembered what happened in the next hour. At that time, we had only eaten meat for a long time, the kind of pork fed with pure grain and weeds, it was very fragrant, tasteful, and nutritious, and the aura that had time to precipitate was hidden in it, and I hadn't eaten it for a long time! ”

Marika asked, "Are you poor when you're old? I think Middle-earth is rich." Now they all say that you are doing very well. ”

Tao Yuan said: "You only see our development, success, and prosperity, but you don't see the efforts behind us." China fell from the peak of the world to the trough, was bullied, squeezed, exploited, and divided by foreign powers, and then liberated itself from the semi-colonial and semi-feudal society and established the People's Democratic Republic. After the establishment of the new country, the foundation was weak, poor and white, and through the continuous efforts of several generations, the foundation was laid, and then after the reform and opening up, hard work, hard struggle, scientific and technological innovation, and accumulation of thick and thin, there was a situation in which today it is relatively rich, relatively powerful, and partially leading. ”

Marika said: "I really envy your country, everything is thriving!"

Tao Yuan said: "You are wrong! Our country also has many problems, but now the force of development is the greatest, and those problems have been covered up! There is light in this world, there is darkness! Light and darkness restrain each other, promote each other, and transform each other. The extremes of things must be reversed, and the extremes of prosperity must decline. Light and darkness are like medicine and viruses, when medicine is strong, the virus is destroyed, but the virus that survives will become resistant to medicine and become stronger, when the virus is strong, medicine will be ineffective, if the human body (or animal) can survive, it will produce antibodies to the virus, and the antibodies will become more powerful and can destroy the virus. No matter how absurd and implausible it may be, every being has a reason and a force to support its existence until it perishes. ”

Marika's eyes lit up, and she said with a look of adoration: "It's so profound! Daoist, you are really knowledgeable! It would have been nice if I had met you earlier!"

Wei Diya said: "It's not too late to meet now! Encounter is fate, and if you cherish it, you can move forward." ”

The atmosphere suddenly became a little delicate, and the three of them buried themselves in eating, and quickly finished eating, and returned the tableware. Then he walked back and walked to the door of Tao Yuan's dormitory.

Tao Yuan said: "Marika, Weidia, it's getting late, go back and rest!"

Marika said a little reluctantly: "We're afraid, can we share a room with you, we'll sleep on the ground!"

Tao Yuan said: "You don't have to be afraid, this is the military camp of the Gaoshan Country, they have strict military discipline, and there will be no accidents!"

"I'm scared too! There are a lot of things like that that that happening in Indu. We sleep on the ground and won't disturb you. ”

Tao Yuan said: "We are different from men and women, and it is not good to live together. You'd better go sleep next door. ”

Marika said, "We don't mind, we trust you." ”

Tao Yuan said: "Thank you for your trust! I have two vajra talismans here, which you stick to your body when you sleep, and when you attack, they will automatically activate and protect you." And I can wake up, now you should be relieved!"

Marika took the vajra talisman with some regret and put it in her underwear with great care. Seeing that persuasion was ineffective, Wei Diya also cherished the vajra talisman.

"Thank you, Daoist Tao, good night!"

"Thank you, Daoist Tao, good night, see you tomorrow!"

"Good night!"

The two girls returned to the dormitory, closed the door, washed up, had just finished eating, and did not want to sleep. They chatted quietly.

"Sister, are we really going to Middle-earth? I heard that it's very good, but we are unfamiliar with the land, and we don't have official visas, so I'm afraid it's not easy to get a foothold. ”

"Let's take one step at a time, let's finish reporting the Daoist's life-saving grace, and then it's not too late to consider going to Middle-earth. ”

"It turns out that you are a drunkard who doesn't mean to drink, Xiao Nizi is so cunning, are you going to leave me alone and fly with the Taoist Chief?"

"Shhhh The Taoist is good-looking, has strong martial arts, and has a kind heart, and he rescued us like a god. I want to, but I don't know if the chief wants to? I think you want to too! Why else would you like to stay in his room?"

The two women blushed at the same time and began to tickle each other. They laughed heartily and panted, and finally Marika begged for mercy, "Sister, spare me! Do you think Tao Daochang will accept us?

"I don't know, but we are good to him, love him with all our heart, let him feel our love, he must not fail us, right? We are not ugly, but fate is bumpy, we both advance and retreat together, give him two parts of love. Trade true love for the future. ”

"What if it still doesn't work?"

"Then we can only blame our miserable lives! Let's bless Tao Daochang!"

We have nothing, so we have to work harder to achieve happiness. ”

"Yes, we are not reincarnated well, we are born in the cause degree, and we have too many shackles on our bodies! Now the high mountain country has opened many of our shackles, but we have to open the shackles of inferiority in our hearts. At least we are now much freer than before, with more choices for jobs, the people we like, the food we like, and the places we live. ”

"I hope Daoist Tao doesn't blame me, I deceived him and said that he wanted to go to Middle-earth. In fact, I want to stay with him, and it only makes sense to have him in a place. ”

"You are a white lie, and he will not blame you! So you have to touch him with love, and you have to open the door of his heart, so that he will accept us naturally. ”

"Why am I going, and not you?"

"Because you have skin-to-skin kisses, and you kiss. Isn't it wonderful?"

Marika shy and lost herself in the memory.

"Look at your look of Sichun, it's really pitiful for me! Sister, be brave. Some opportunities are missed, for a lifetime! ”

"Thank you, sister, why are you so nice to me?"

"Because we are sisters, sisters whose fates are connected, you saved our lives when we were young, and the thread of our fate is inseparable from each other. Meeting in the LTTE, I was even more convinced of that. ”

"Good sister, we will be blessed and share hardships in the future!"

"Okay! With a sister like you, I have one more relative in the world!"

"Me too! It's good to meet you! It's good to meet Tao Daochang!"

"Sleep! Raise your spirits and be beautiful, so that Tao Daochang can accept you faster. ”

"Hmm!"

The next day, Tao Yuan and the three were politely entertained to dinner. They pass the time watching TV in the guest house.

After watching some news and TV series, it was soon two o'clock in the afternoon. Captain Hu walked over, shook Tao Yuan's hand and said, "Daoist Tao, I've kept you waiting." This is the Hero Medal of the Mountains and Wilderness, a letter of introduction, and materials, please keep them! You can collect them at the subordinate organs of the Ministry of Finance or the government hall in the royal capital. ”

Tao Yuan said: "No! Thank you for your hospitality! There is also a bonus, I should wait a while!"

Captain Hu said: "Thank you for your contribution to China's public security environment!

Tao Yuan said: "I am so happy! Then we will no longer bother Captain Hu, goodbye!"

Captain Hu waved his hand and said, "Goodbye!

Tao Yuan said in high spirits: "Thank you, Marika, Weidia, let's go! Go and see the beautiful scenery of the royal capital!"

The three of them slept all the way, with Tao Yuan, a master, and the two girls did not suffer much! At night, they lived in caves, or houses built of grass and trees under rocks.

The three of them ate and lived together, shared joys and sorrows, and soon their relationship warmed up. Marika and Tao Yuan had already kissed and held hands, and Weidiya had lost her footing in a cliff climb and was rescued by Tao Yuan. Then when they encountered a dangerous area, the two girls naturally held Tao Yuan's hand. Tao Yuan was also very happy, and said secretly: My spring is coming, it's not easy! Both daughters are interested in me, who should I choose? Choose one, the other will be sad, right? Middle-earth is monogamous, how can this be good?

The straight-line distance from the border road is only more than 200 kilometers. But climbing mountains, streams, river valleys, cliffs, and detours with no way out, plus the fear of separation of the three people in the back, walked more and more slowly.

On the evening of the third day, more than 50 kilometers away from Xubu, in a deep mountain cave. Tao Yuan lit a bonfire, roasted pheasants, hares, and freshwater fish, and sprinkled with peppercorns, chili peppers, cumin, salt, sesame seeds and other seasonings. Wedia and Marika were also helping with the barbecue, and on the other side hung a small pot with pheasant stewed mushrooms under a stand, which was boiling with a faint aroma of meat and mushrooms.

The two women grilled a grilled fish and handed it to Tao Yuan at the same time. Tao Yuan smiled: "You can eat it! I'll bake it soon!"

Marika said, "See how well we roast?

Seeing this, Tao Yuan took the grilled fish from the two women, handed over the two fish that he had grilled, and said, "You can eat it while it's hot! The fish won't taste good when it's cold, and the smell is very strong!"

The two girls smiled and narrowed their eyes, and said, "Thank you!" and then picked up the grilled fish and took a bite.

"Delicious! Is this an authentic Middle-earth flavor?"

"Yes, but there are eight major cuisines in Middle-earth, and there are many different styles of barbecue. ”

"You Middle-earthers really enjoy it! One food can make many flavors. ”

"When there are many people in Middle-earth and few places, when there are natural and man-made disasters and food shortages, those that fly in the sky, walk on the ground, swim in the water, and hide in the ground, as long as they can be eaten, find out, and then ponder all kinds of ways to eat! Even in adversity, we must pursue better taste and a more beautiful life! Those can be eaten, those can not be eaten? Those can be eaten without processing, and those must be harmlessly treated and processed before they can be eaten! After countless generations of inheritance and improvement, today's food culture has been formed. Perhaps it is this kind of unfailing stomach and endless pursuit of a better life that has enabled the people of Middle-earth to survive one calamity after another and regain their footing at the high ground of the world and the frontier of science and technology. ”

"You people of Middle-earth are so brave!"

"You are also very brave! People who can pursue a better life are brave!"

Wei Diya scooped a bowl of pheasant and mushroom soup with a wooden spoon, served it to Tao Yuan first, and said, "The pheasant and mushroom soup is also stewed, you eat it first! ”

"Thank you!"

Weidia brought another bowl to Marika, and finally her own.

Marika asked a little apprehensively, "Daoist Tao, have you received the reward and are you going back to China?"

"No, I still have something to do in the Alpine Country, and I have to complete the task given to me by one man. ”

"We don't want to go to Middle-earth anymore!We want to be with you, I like you, we can help you with your mission!" Marika looked towards Tao Yuan shyly but expectantly.

"I like you too! We have nothing to rely on in Middle-earth, so let us follow you and help you serve tea, pour water, laundry and cook!" Wei Diya looked at Tao Yuan enthusiastically and boldly.

Tao Yuan only felt that he was hit by a happy pie, and the soup bowl in his hand fell to the ground, and his heart shook violently, and he forgot to answer for a while.

"Don't you want to? Wei Diya also lost her face and burst into tears.

"I do! ”

"We are willing! It's about two loves!"

The three of them hugged each other and smiled. Then the three of them ate happily.
