Chapter 168: The Taste of Home

The mountains reflect the slanting sun, and the sunset is like fire, as if it has burned half of the sky.

Qi Ying'er leaned against a boulder at the top of the mountain, staring at the sun that was about to set. He likes to look at the sun at this time, it is like a fireball, not dazzling, but burning your heart.

He was fascinated by the scenery, and even if the wind blew, he would not feel a trace of cold.

fire, he wished he could release such a fire and burn this thing clean.

He looked at the sword beside him, why on earth did he embark on this path?

"The scenery here is so beautiful!"

He turned his head and saw Luo'er. She was as big as herself, and when she laughed, her big watery eyes would narrow into a slit, and two small dimples would faintly appear on her face.

Holding a thickened cotton and linen dress in her hand, she slowly walked to Qi Ying'er's side and handed it to him.

"Mr. Bai asked me to come up and give this to you. Although it is already spring, the wind on the mountain is so strong that you will blow your body like this. ”

Qi Ying'er took it, it was soft and soft to the touch, and Luo'er's concern warmed his heart.

Qi Ying'er looked at Luo'er, Luo'er blushed at him, but Luo'er raised her face towards the sunset, as if the color of the sunset was hiding her blush.

Qi Ying'er moved her gaze to Luo'er's feet, and asked, "You, Miss Luo'er, aren't you cold?"

Luo'er moved a few steps back and said, "I'm not cold, I'm ...... I'm going down, Brother Ying'er, and you're ...... Come down early. ”

Luo'er hurried down the mountain, and Ying'er only saw a petite back disappear on the top of the mountain in a blink of an eye.

Qi Ying'er draped her clothes over her body, and there was still the fragrance on her clothes. He was familiar with the smell, having been wounded by the sword of Mocheng a long time ago...... He thought back to the boy, who was about his own age, who walked lightly, who had a broken arm, and whose empty sleeve always fluttered with his steps.

And he - died by his own sword.

It wasn't the first time he had killed someone, but it was the first time he had felt fear. When he remembered the cold, gray face that had been grinded into it, he would always fall into a wave of fear.

The sun had set, and the last rays of sunlight had sunk below the western horizon. Qi Ying'er wrapped up her clothes, it was time to go down.

Qi Ying'er slowly groped his way down, and he walked along a path down the mountain, which was overgrown with weeds and rocks. He had to take every step carefully to avoid falling and falling down the hill - there was a cliff on the other side of the trail.

He walked slowly around the mountain, and finally reached the mountainside. He went into a mountain forest and saw a wooden house lit with fire.

He pushed the door open, the warmth of the room relaxing his taut skin.

Inside the hut there were two beds, a cupboard with bedding that they could use, and some clothes—all men's. There were also tables and stoves in the hut, as well as pots and pans, which they could use at this time.

At this time, Luo'er and Dingdong were sitting at the table, talking and laughing, while Ling Quanfei was holding a pot next to the stove and stewing something, and a smell of meat wafted out of the pot.

Seeing Qi Ying'er coming back, Ling Quanfei looked at him and smiled, he still couldn't speak.

Luo'er was even more enthusiastic, jumped off the stool and walked in front of him and said, "Brother Ying'er, come to the stove and warm up, I'll get you clothes." ”

Qi Ying'er took off the clothes she was wearing and handed them to Luo'er, who held it in her arms and walked to the bed to fold it.

Dingdong has been watching the series of actions of the two, with a warm smile in his eyes.

Ling Quanfei knocked on the pot with long bamboo chopsticks, and after Luo Er folded her clothes, she said happily: "It's time to eat!" I don't know when she is no longer so sad.

They buried Da Zhuang in a secluded forest next to the manor, and Luo Er hoped that Da Zhuang would never be disturbed by anyone or anything again, so he let him sleep quietly in the mountain.

Qi Ying'er remembered that Ling Quanfei cried for a long time that night, just silently wept, and then sat in front of Da Zhuang's grave with wine, drinking silently, upside down.

"Let's eat! "Let's eat!" Ding Dong also rubbed his hands, and couldn't wait to eat Ling Quanfei's stewed rabbit meat. The two rabbits were encountered by Dingdong while wandering in the woods in the evening, and when he met them, the two rabbits were being held in the mouth by a wolf. Dingdong took the wolf away with a stone and rescued the rabbit, but when she found that the two rabbits were dead, she took them back.

She didn't know how to cook, she just wanted to bake and eat, but she didn't expect Ling Quanfei to be a good cook, he wrote on the paper: "Eat stewed rabbit soup at night, I'll make it." ”

This can make Ding Dong very happy, she hasn't eaten properly these days, thinking that it is already her own mouth to have meat today, and she didn't expect to be able to eat stewed rabbit meat and drink stewed rabbit soup. The gluttonous worms in the stomach have long been active, and they are looking forward to the rabbit meat this night.

After they left the "Qi Family Manor", they rushed all the way to Wanling Mountain. They rushed for three days, and on the fourth day they arrived at Liuqing Town.

But instead of going to Liuqing Town immediately, they walked to a hill next to Liuqing Town. The day after tomorrow is March 3, and according to the previous plan, they will launch an operation against the White Crane Gang the day after tomorrow.

But along the way, too many things have happened, I'm afraid that Nangong He already knows their whereabouts, and the identity of the mask man is a mystery. So they decided not to contact Yi Wanxuan and the others first, but to find a hiding place to investigate secretly.

This mountain has no name, and there is no uniqueness, the magpie feather Wanling Mountain is far away, and the distance between the two mountains is only twenty miles.

This hut was found by chance after they went up the mountain. When they stepped into the cabin, they were surprised, because everything here indicated that it had been inhabited before, and it was not long ago.

The tables and chairs had just been held quietly, and there was not much ash on all the utensils, and there was a bow and a few empty bamboo quivers hanging on the wall.

The strangest thing in this room is the two beds. The room is not very large, why did the owner of the house put two beds? Could it be that there is more than one person living here?

They must not make any mistakes in this action, and they must always be vigilant about the dangers around them.

They stayed here for two days and still did not see the owner of the house return. I was relieved and bold to live here.

The aroma of stewed rabbit meat made everyone salivate, and Qi Ying'er sat on the top of the mountain for another afternoon, and her body was already tired and hungry. Faced with a bowl of fragrant and hot broth, he couldn't help it, so he picked up the spoon and took a sip first. After taking a bite, the hot self squirted out again, spraying on the ground on the side, making Luo'er giggle.

"Brother Ying'er, you are in too much of a hurry, you have to blow it before you can drink it. ...... like this" said as Luo Er took the spoon, scooped it up, put it to his mouth, blew gently, and then slowly approached the edge of the spoon with his lips and drank it slowly.

"It's so delicious!" Luo Er exclaimed happily, "It's so delicious, Mr. Bai, the rabbit broth you made is so delicious." ”

Ling Quanfei saw that Luo Er liked the rabbit soup he made so much, and his face was also filled with a loving and happy smile. Gesturing with his hands means letting Luo Er taste rabbit meat.

Luo Er picked up a piece of rabbit meat in the bowl, still put it to her mouth and blew it, then took a bite of it, chewed it, and after swallowing it, she exclaimed: "It's delicious, it's delicious!"

Ding Dong couldn't help it, and began to taste it, Ling Quanfei looked at Qi Ying'er, smiled and gestured, and asked Qi Ying'er to continue eating. Qi Ying'er was no longer anxious this time, but slowly tasted it one bite at a time.

In just half an hour, a pot of rabbit broth, the two rabbits were eaten clean by the four of them, and there was not even a drop of soup left.

After Qi Ying'er ate it, she only felt sweaty all over, and she was extremely comfortable. After eating, Luo'er and Dingdong talked and laughed again, Qi Ying'er watched, listened, thought, and laughed.

Suddenly he had a feeling - he wished that time would stop at this moment, no longer change, let everything slow down, let himself enjoy this moment of pleasure.

This feeling of déjà vu at home is something he hasn't experienced for a long time.

And the other three people, Luo'er, Ling Quanfei and Dingdong, may not even have experienced the feeling of home at all, and they are already drifting on the rivers and lakes of troubled times.

Thinking of this, Qi Ying'er actually felt some sympathy for them.

After that, Luo'er began to take them to play a game - guess the copper plate, guess the heads and tails at will, and after guessing, you can remember that the three of them ask any question, and the others have to answer honestly, if they guess wrong, they must accept a question from each of the other three, and they are also not allowed to answer or lie.

Luo'er volunteered: "I'll guess first!"

Ling Quanfei threw a copper plate high, and several people's eyes fell with the copper plate that was thrown high, Ling Quanfei suddenly clapped his hands and sandwiched the copper plate between his palms.

Luo'er thought about it seriously, and then said, "I guess—yes!"

Ling Quanfei removed his hand, and the copper plate in his palm was facing up.

Ding Dong smiled: "Okay, it's not good to be a teacher, you are willing to gamble and lose!"

"Of course, I won't cheat. "Ask."

"Let's start with you, you ask first. Ding Dong said to Qi Ying'er.

Qi Ying'er suddenly became a little nervous, and said, "I, I ......."

"Yes, you ask first, I just said, you can ask anything, she must answer you honestly. ”

Qi Ying'er looked at Luo'er and found that she was even more nervous than herself, and her face began to turn red.

Luo'er ate and said, "Ying...... Brother Ying'er, you ask. ”

Qi Ying'er's mind was blank, he really didn't know what to ask, he held it for a long time, and finally asked, "How old are you?"

Luo'er immediately replied, "I'm twelve years old, the same age as you. Then he sneered.

Ding Dong said in a complaining tone: "What, what kind of problem are you." ”

Qi Ying'er scratched her head and smiled embarrassedly: "I haven't played this, so ...... Not quite yet. ”

Dingdong muttered: "What will not be this, see me ask." She asked with a sinister face, "Little Sister Luo'er, do you like this person?"

Qi Ying'er looked at Dingdong's slender fingers pointing at herself, and when she heard her question, she was immediately red-faced, and she didn't even dare to look at Luo'er.

Luo'er is no better than him, and after listening to this question, he has been complaining that Ding Dong is too much.

Dingdong laughed and said, "This is a game you want to play, but you are not allowed to play tricks, you must answer, and you must tell the truth." ”

Luo Er only felt as if his face was roasted by fire, he looked at Ling Quanfei, who just smiled slightly, his gentle eyes never changed, and she looked at Qi Ying'er again, he was lowering his head and picking at his fingers.

Dingdong continued to ask reluctantly, "What's the matter? Say it quickly, do you like him?"

Luo Er stared at Ding Dong, anxious and ashamed, biting her lip and unable to speak.
