Chapter 36: Cooking Smoke
CHAPTER XXXVI
Chu Buwei got to the carriage, for fear of disturbing the little girl Yi Yin, who was still sleeping, but whispered to the suffering that the shopkeeper is looking for you, and the suffering can think of what Bai Yunhuan is looking for himself with his feet, and he got out of the carriage sullenly, he felt that he was now about to do chores for Bai Yunhuan. But after thinking about it, Bai Yunhuan never asked him, but just asked himself to help him, and the depression in his heart suddenly decreased a lot.
got off the carriage and walked to the neem tree by the river, which was a little short but thick, and saw Bai Yunhuan blushing and moving a stone that was half a person high. Suffering lifted his sleeves, ran a few steps, helped carry the other end of the stone, and gave Bai Yunhuan a hand; Bai Yunhuan was not polite, wiping the sweat on his forehead with one hand on his waist and the other hand.
"Look at the forest over there, I have just observed, there are some low woods and grasses, there are a lot of small berries, not enough for people to eat, but to feed some hares, more than enough, we have this dinner, the delicacies of the mountains and seas can not be talked about, but at least we have to do what we can. Your cultivation is higher than mine, and I estimate that you can chase and kill a few hares, so I'll leave it to you over there. Bai Yunhuan said as he pointed to the forest facing the south, and touched his bald head with a hesitant expression.
Bai Yunhuan was stunned, looking at the suffering with a smile.
"You don't want to kill. ”
Suffering ignored Bai Yunhuan's ridicule, remembering the nine-flavor chicken that Bai Yunhuan spent several days chasing on the mountain last time, and was a little worried about whether he would get nothing this time, and he couldn't prepare a decent meal for the little girl when the time came. And Bai Yunhuan had already pulled up his trouser legs, took the sharpened handmade harpoon, and began to walk towards the stream;
"Come on, the nine-flavor chicken thing is like becoming a fine, where can these pheasants and hares be compared, you can rest assured that you can go." Hearing Bai Yunhuan's words, he no longer hesitated, raised his legs and walked towards the forest that Bai Yunhuan had just pointed to.
One fishes by the river and the other chases rabbits in the woods. The daylight turned from warm to cool, and soon the sky darkened a little.
Since the change of carriage, the little girl, who had barely slept well on the road, became particularly sleepy, just like today, the little girl slept for almost a whole afternoon. The little girl was sleepy-eyed, and when she woke up, she found that Bai Yunhuan was not by her side, and she woke up all of a sudden, she hurriedly sat up and said a word, and when she looked up, she found Chu Buwei sitting aside.
The little girl's expression was no longer so panicked, but she still frowned, as if she was looking for someone.
Chu Buwei heard the sound of getting up in a hurry beside him, knew that it was the little girl who got up, and also knew that she should be looking for Bai Yunhuan, Chu Buwei's face softened, and gently patted the little girl's shoulder; the little girl looked back at Chu Buwei, her face was full of doubts. Then she saw Chu Buwei's finger pointing to the place where she was pressed under her hand. The little girl looked down and saw a small stone that emitted a faint fluorescence pressed against a piece of rice paper, and two words were written on the paper.
The little girl gently picked up the stone, took the paper with the words in her hand, and looked up at Chu Buwei.
Chu Buwei smiled very gently, whispered in a low voice, and said:
"This is your name, Bai Yunhuan gave it to you. ”
"Your name, Yiyin. ”
The little girl took her name and froze in place.
On the edge of the stream, Bai Yunhuan and Chu Buwei were roasting fragrant fish and hares, and the grease was dripping in the charcoal fire to make a sizzling sound; they only heard a heavy "kick" sound from the carriage, as if someone had fallen to the ground, and the two hurriedly turned back, and the little girl who had just run too fast and fell had already stood up and rushed out of the carriage.
The little girl Yi Yin rushed towards Bai Yunhuan, rushed to Bai Yunhuan, and threw herself into Bai Yunhuan's arms.
At that time, Bai Yunhuan also held the little girl in his arms like this.
When Bai Yunhuan was a child, he often held his sister Huanhuan in his arms like this.
Chu Buwei on the side clearly felt that a completely opposite aura appeared on the little girl's body, warm and peaceful.
The firelight flickered.
The little girl hugged enough, turned around, and looked at Chu Buwei, who had already followed, her crystal red pupils were full of seriousness, and then her little hand stretched out lightly and pulled up Chu Buwei's hand, in the swaying firelight, the little girl thanked Chu Buwei for two words, these two words were taught to her by Bai Yunhuan before, Bai Yunhuan told her, if someone treats you well, you can say this.
The little girl wrote the words in Chu Buwei's palm: Thank you.
Chu Buwei felt the words written by the little girl's little hand in the palm of his hand, and laughed happily.
Then the little girl turned around and looked at the suffering with the same earnestness. The look of suffering is a little unnatural, and I think I am not used to someone thanking me so seriously and seriously. He saw the little girl come cautiously, and then bowed to himself a little jerkyly.
I feel that it is actually good to be thanked by others.
There is cooking smoke by the river, and there is a world by the river.
There was no moonlight tonight, but the little girl felt that the fire was the most moving. The four of them gathered around the fire to eat this hard-won meal, and when Bai Yunhuan ate it himself, he didn't forget to tear off the roasted crispy and soft rabbit meat and give it to the little girl. Chu is not the most quiet for eating, nor does he make a sound. There is only suffering and Bai Yunhuan, every time I eat, it is as if I grew up begging for food.
Bai Yunhuan tore off a mouthful of golden-colored flesh and spoke while chewing heavily.
"At our speed, we will probably be able to reach Fusang City tomorrow afternoon. This is the first city we've come across in a long time, no better than the previous town. ”
The suffering is the same as Bai Yunhuan, and the dining etiquette of these two people is like that taught by a master. He took a big bite of the rabbit leg coated with sauce, puffed out his cheeks and said:
"Don't say it's a city, what's the use of a palace, let's not all pass by, and don't care what city is not a town or a town. ”
Bai Yunhuan stuffed a piece of fish meat into the little girl's mouth, and he no longer gobbled it up, and continued to speak:
"When I came out of the Sword Cliff, Qin Chuchu told me to be especially careful of Fusang City. Fusang City is located at the junction of the cultivation forces in the south and the mortal forces in the north, mixed with fish and dragons, just the number of murders per month, Fusang City far exceeds the surrounding several areas, I heard her say that Fusang City is a mortal city on the surface, but secretly has a lot of contact with the cultivation forces, we have to be cautious this time. ”
Chu Buwei was just listening, he knew that there was actually another choice, that is, to take a detour, but he also knew that if he chose to take a detour, his party might only arrive at the Mending Heaven Pavilion in the Year of the Monkey
"When you get to Fusang City, you are responsible, I am responsible for Yin'er, don't go wrong. ”
When Suffering heard Bai Yunhuan's words, he still didn't stop talking, but raised his eyebrows and said:
"Are you okay?"
Bai Yunhuan didn't care.
"No problem. ”
Suffering didn't ask again, and continued to solve the half roast rabbit in his hand.
The three of them were eating meat and chatting at the same time, the time passed quickly, and most of the hour was almost satisfied, Chu Buwei was a little surprised, but he didn't expect Bai Yunhuan to be a little good at eating.
After filling their stomachs, the three of them sat on the grass, Bai Yunhuan was the most leisurely, lying in the grass with his arms leaning. \
Suffering looked at the sky and suddenly asked:
"Bai Yunhuan, how do you know the name of that sword?"
Bai Yunhuan thought about it, knowing that the suffering should be the silver long sword of the Sword Cliff, his face was indifferent, and he just said casually:
"It told me on its own. ”
