Thousands of miles in the sky, there are no birds to cross.

The clouds are shallow and dark, like a person from another world.

...............

In an ordinary courtyard in the middle of the town, a teenager is carefully picking fresh vegetables.

The young man's surname is Yun, his name is Tianyou, and his parents died early.

The place where it is located is not only an inherited inheritance, but also the only inn in the town, and the boy has been guarding for fifteen years.

The name of the town is called: Taoyuan.

Although there is not much ink in his stomach, Yun Tianyou can still figure out the meaning.

Just standing in the courtyard and looking at the barren bald mountains all around, it is really a little out of place.

Maybe it's not enough, right?

Yun Tianyou thought so, after all, he had a will, and he had never stepped out of the house for all these years.

Looking at the basket full of vegetables, Yun Tianyou stopped what he was doing, stood up and stretched.

There was a slight noise in his ears, and then a white shadow jumped from behind him to his shoulder.

Feeling the friction of the tongue barbs, Yun Tianyou showed a doting look on his face, and reached out to touch this childhood sweetheart's good brother, "Xiaobai, you are getting fatter and fatter." ”

As soon as the words fell, his arm was scratched, and a hot feeling came.

Immediately after, Xiaobai jumped in front of him, his hair stood on end, as if he was threatening, and let out an angry roar, "Hiss!"

"You said you're a cat, what do you care about your body..."Yun Tianyou said helplessly.

Then he stepped forward, grabbed Xiaobai's strength very quickly and lifted up, and pinched a vegetable leaf from the latter's exposed fangs, "Ate it again?"

Under the reversal of the situation, Xiaobai reacted very quickly, showed a cute expression, and gently 'meowed'.

After Yun Tianyou put it down, he quickly fled the scene, jumped onto the beam, and started to provoke again.

................

Population is the only support for the name of Taoyuan Town.

However, in the town of 100 households, there are few outsiders, at least Yun Tianyou in the inn has not seen strange faces.

Leaving Xiao Bai who was still shouting, Yun Tianyou lifted the basket and walked towards the hall.

The inn is a wooden structure and is divided into two floors, with the first floor for dining and the second floor for accommodation.

The facilities are very simple, there are a total of eight dining tables in the hall, there are no stools, and the room on the second floor only has a wooden bed, and nothing else.

In this regard, Yun Tianyou, who has lived here since he was a child, didn't think there was anything strange.

The only puzzle is that, except for Xiaobai, I have never seen anyone of my age appear in the field of vision.

Maybe it's the same as yourself, right?

The name of the inn is the inn.

The difference is that the same people come to eat every day, arrive on time and leave on time.

Although it is very depressing, Yun Tianyou, who is not good at communicating with others, feels quite relaxed.

As for accommodation?

Yun Tianyou put the basket away and looked at the old man lying on the chair on the second floor, smoking a cigarette.

For as long as I can remember, this is the only inhabitant of the inn.

And Yun Tianyou, who was brought up by him, naturally put the old man in the same position as his parents.

Thinking of this, I can't help but feel a sense of loneliness in my heart.

Regarding his parents, who were never masked, Yun Tianyou asked the elderly more than once, or the guests who came to eat.

But the old man never spoke, and no one else answered in a word.

And, as long as this topic was mentioned, everyone showed strange expressions, and then left immediately, as if they had been caught stealing food by themselves.

After a long time, Yun Tianyou stopped mentioning this matter.

Seeing that there was still a while before the meal, Yun Tianyou walked up to the second floor, came to the old man, and while taking out the vegetables from his arms, he gently called "Grandpa Dugu." ”

The old man, who was called Dugu, still closed his eyes, gently shook his chair, swallowing clouds and mist, as if he hadn't heard.

Yun Tianyou, who was accustomed to it, gently put aside the three green vegetables that were several times thicker than the basket, and then went downstairs and waited with peace of mind.

If you are someone else, you will definitely have questions.

But in Yun Tianyou's cognition, he has only seen this kind of food since he grew up eating green vegetables.

Usually, only one green vegetable is needed for a day's food intake.

..............

In a quiet environment, the footsteps at the door naturally couldn't hide from Yun Tianyou's ears.

Gathered his mind slightly, and then looked at the elders who appeared in the field of vision one after another.

Yun Tianyou took out the account book from his arms and put it in front of the stage.

It's also a perception.

You don't need anything else to eat, just press a handprint.

Although it is simple, every time he looks at the behavior of these old people biting their fingers, Yun Tianyou is still more distressed.

A long time ago, I also thought about abandoning this method, because the vegetable garden at home can grow enough vegetables the next day.

This spirit of generosity was stopped by the old man Dugu, who just said lightly, "The rules set by your mother".

Silence does not mean resentment, but a deep longing.

After that, Yun Tianyou no longer gave any opinions, and silently followed the rules of coming again.

The contents of the account book are not complicated, the names of people, the handprints that are getting more and more bright red, and the numbers that grow automatically.

Today's leader is Grandpa Li next door, after Tianyou greeted enthusiastically, he watched the other party press the handprint, and then took out a green vegetable from the basket and handed it over.

Not everyone will respond, but Yun Tianyou always keeps a smile on his face.

After receiving it, it is not eaten immediately, but goes to the dining table and waits quietly.

Ordinary people look at some behaviors of taking off their pants and farting, but in their opinion, it looks more solemn.

After everyone is in place, they hold the green vegetables in their hands, put their hands together in the center of their eyebrows, and collide their mouths up and down, as if they are saying something, but no sound comes out, and after a while, they stop moving, nod to each other, and start eating.

The link was very short, so Yun Tianyou began the process of watching the elders leave.

Even if no one cares about this orderly etiquette.

The next moment, Yun Tianyou covered his mouth and nose, coughed slightly, looked to the side, and looked suspicious.

I didn't notice the movement is secondary, the first thing is that Grandpa Dugu actually went downstairs?

His wrinkled hands reached out from his wide robes, took the account book on the stage, opened it and glanced at it, and then put it down.

He said to the departing crowd, "Wait for tomorrow morning, and don't delay the hour." ”

The quiet order was slightly frustrated, but it was restored to its original state.

Silence, echo, laughter.

On the open account book, behind the bright red handprints that are about to come out, there is a long list of numbers: 999999.

Tomorrow is the day that the old people have long said, and on the second day of February, the dragon raises its head.
