Chapter 3: The first chopping of wood

It was only after nightfall, and naturally there were still villagers willing to hang outside.

"You're still out so late?"

Uncle Chen was the first to spot Ling Junyu walking towards here, so he asked him.

"That I was from another village and got lost in the mountains, and I walked for a day before I came out. Ling Junyu said embarrassedly.

Looking at the young man in front of him, the old man didn't say much.

Looking at the makeup on his body, it doesn't look like a lie.

Besides, what Ling Junyu said was indeed not a lie, he was really lost, if he hadn't met that tiger, he might not have been able to get out tomorrow.

"Baby, are you really from a nearby village?" Uncle Chen asked again.

After all, the village still has to be careful to watch out for those strangers.

"My village was attacked by monsters, but luckily I escaped by not being in the village at the time. What Ling Junyu said seemed to be true.

Of course, there is something to say, he really encountered a tiger on the road, and he fought to the death with it, which he didn't say for fear that he would be too proud.

Soon, several people next to him were talking.

"What a poor boy. ”

"My parents were killed by monsters, and they are still so strong. ”

"Why don't we consider taking him in?"

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

Ling Junyu felt that something was wrong when he heard this, when did he say that his parents were killed by demon beasts, don't just make up for it!

Damned!

"That's it, baby, I see that you are homeless, or stay in our village. Uncle Chen said to him.

It seems that the surrounding villagers have no opinions.

"That's so much appreciated. Ling Junyu burst into tears of excitement.

Everyone saw that he was so excited that they cried and recognized this new young man even more.

Ling Junyu cried not because he could stay here, but because he had finally met a normal person after so many years.

In Ling Junyu's consciousness: Immortal = neurotic.

Generally the fairy doesn't have his own little fetishes............ After all, it always feels uncomfortable not to tinker with something after such a long life.

"It's so late, it just so happens that there is a spare room in my house, baby, you can come with me to live in my house today. Uncle Chen said to him.

Ling Junyu didn't want to excuse himself and agreed.

To be honest, he didn't have any requirements for the conditions in which he lived.

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

Ling Junyu was brought into a fairly good small courtyard by him, and it seemed that this Uncle Chen still had prestige in the village.

"Grandpa, you're back. A girl came out of it and said with a sweet smile.

"Qiao'er, you clean up that empty room and let this young man stay tonight. Uncle Chen said to his granddaughter.

Chen Qiao naturally saw the man who was following his grandfather.

Ling Junyu saw the other party's gaze on him, and thought that he still lived here, so he showed her a friendly smile.

To be honest, this was the first time he had seen a woman in the mortal world, and she looked much uglier than those fairies in the fairy world, but at least it looked quite pleasing to the eye.

Although he didn't have the temperament of those fairies, he lacked the smell of human smoke that they didn't have, especially now that he was covered with mud and smelled a strange smell.

"That...... Come with me. ”

Qiao'er doesn't seem to know what to call each other yet, which sounds a little embarrassing.

Ling Junyu naturally saw his embarrassment.

"Call me Ling Junyu, is there anything wrong with Miss Qiao'er?"

Ling Junyu came over, it was the first time he had close contact with a mortal woman, and he was inevitably a little excited and curious.

His eyes were always looking her up and down inadvertently, which made Chen Qiao feel that the other party must be a frivolous person.

In my heart, my first impression was still classified as a disciple.

If Ling Junyu knew, he would definitely be wronged.

You see how clear my eyes are, and I see beautiful things with appreciative eyes.

But he didn't know any of this.

Soon Chen Qiao took him to a room and helped him simply lay out a quilt and tidy it up.

"Alright, the house is cleaned up, you can go to bed early. Then he ran out of the room without looking back.

Ling Junyu seemed to subconsciously feel that this girl was afraid of herself.

Do you look so scary?

He looked to the side of the mirror.

"Damn, who is this black egg! It can't be me. ”

In the mirror, his face was full of dust and some mud, and his hair was even more unkempt, completely lacking his beauty in the fairy world.

No wonder those villagers pity him, it turns out that his image is already miserable.

But he didn't think about it so much and fell asleep at the end.

Finally came to the human world, and Ling Junyu slept peacefully for the first time in his life.

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

In the morning, Ling Junyu was woken up by Uncle Chen's rooster, and it seemed that it was only dawning that day.

However, there were already bursts of cooking smoke rising in the village, and Ling Junyu naturally didn't look like the kind of person who slept lazy.

"The baby is awake. "Uncle Chen looks quite old, but he still came back from outside with water.

"Hmm, do you need me to do something?" Ling Junyu felt that he was living in someone else's house for nothing.

It's better to do something for them, or you don't want to go.

Uncle Chen looked at him, he looked quite sturdy, and since he was willing to work, he was naturally very willing.

"You can chop the firewood over there. He pointed to the pile of firewood that had been placed under the eaves.

Ling Junyu also agreed vaguely: "Okay." ”

The axe weighed up.

It's quite light.

It looks like a simple job!

But how do you chop this firewood?

He's never done this work in the fairy world!

"That Qiao'er girl, how do you chop this firewood?" Just as Uncle Chen came over with the breakfast he was going to prepare today, Ling Junyu simply stopped her.

Chen Qiao didn't hear it clearly, so he took it for granted that he wanted to split how big.

"You can just split them in half. ”

After Ling Junyu got a general understanding.

"Okay, I know, thank you Miss Qiao'er. He bared his white teeth, forgetting that he hadn't washed his face yet.

After Chen Qiao left, Ling Junyu picked up a piece of firewood and gathered the axe above his head.

Split downward.

The piece of wood suddenly exploded, and there were several cracks on the ground.

The earth trembled.

Ling Junyu saw that there was only one axe left in his hand.

And the axe sank deep into the ground.

He looked at the scene in front of him speechlessly, thinking that his strength seemed to be too strong.

He had no choice but to pull out a long sword from behind him.

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

"Whew, it's finally finished. ”

Ling Junyu put away the sword in his hand, wiped the fine sweat on his head and said.

Looking at the mountains of firewood in front of him, he thought to himself that it would be easy to chop firewood.

"Brother Ling, these are all ...... you split"

Ling Junyu turned his head and saw Chen Qiao covering his mouth with an incredulous expression.

Originally, she just wanted to ask Ling Junyu to go to breakfast, but what was the matter with the firewood in front of her, which was taller than her!

"Of course. Looking at the other party's expression, Ling Junyu asked again without understanding for a while.

"Am I splitting a little too much?"

Chen Qiao was speechless for a while when he heard his words, so much firewood, it would take half a month for their family to use it up.

Holding his forehead, Chen Qiao still said to him: "Breakfast is ready, let's go eat." ”

Hearing that he was going to eat, Ling Junyu hurriedly said, "Where does that Qiao'er girl have water?"

Chen Qiao was surprised when he heard this, what did he want water for?

But still stretched out his finger and pointed: "Where is the bucket?" ”

"Thank you. ”

Ling Junyu quickly came to the bucket and filled a basin of water, and then looked at the reflection in the water.

Poured a handful of water on his face, and washed his face very seriously.

Knowing that the basin of water had turned black, he turned to Chen Qiao after pouring out the water and said, "Okay, let's go." ”

Chen Qiao stood still.

"You ......".
