Hot, cold, warm.

Liu Shiyi had a dream in a daze, she dreamed that she was taking a bath, steaming hot water, a wide bath, in which the warmth was extremely comfortable, a snake came out of the bath, the snake leaned in front of his face and kept swallowing the snake letter, Liu Shiyi was scared, wanted to retreat, but the snake was a step faster, the tongue flashed and licked her face, the snake's tongue seemed to be a little astringent, Liu Shiyi was strange, the snake changed its appearance, turned into a fluffy mess, Liu Shiyi was startled, his body shrank back, and suddenly felt that he woke up suddenly。

As far as the eye could see, the roof above her head, the bed under her, she was covered with a quilt, and on the quilt lay an orange cat, the cat's face was very close to her face, the cat's beard rubbed against her face, and the cat was concentrating on sticking out its tongue and licking it on her face, no wonder the snake's tongue was astringent in the dream.

Liu Shiyi smiled dumbly, reached out and scratched the cat's chin, and the cat stretched its neck very comfortably and snored.

As soon as the curtain was lifted, the door squeaked open, and Liang Xie pushed the door and walked in, carrying a kettle in his hand.

"Woke up?" Before Liu Shiyi could speak, Liang Xie had already taken the lead in asking.

"Hmm. Liu Shiyi subconsciously agreed, Liang Xie took the water cup on the table and poured a glass of water for Liu Shiyi and handed it over, Liu Shiyi leaned over and took a sip, she moved the cat reluctantly walked off the quilt, her head was still a little dizzy, as if she wanted to ask Liang Xie a question for a while, but she couldn't remember what to ask.

"How do you feel? Dizziness or not, does it hurt?" Liang Xie took the water cup handed back by Liu Shiyi and asked three questions in a row.

"I feel a little dizzy. Liu Shiyi glanced outside, and she could feel that the sun was already in the west through the window lattice paper, and she was calm, vaguely remembering that she had fallen to the ground last night, how could she wake up and be in bed? She couldn't help but glance at Liang Xie, and her cheeks suddenly became hot.

"After walking around the rivers and lakes for a long time, it was calculated by two laymen, and the two of us were embarrassed to go home. Liang Xie smiled self-deprecatingly.

"Is it Sister Zhang's medicine?" Liu Shiyi asked even though he knew it.

"Well, the gang inside and outside the fight will inevitably hurt someone, before Lang Zhong used mandala and other medicines to adjust some internal and external anesthetics, in the treatment of the wound will not be too painful and when people do it, some can also reduce the pain and not affect the hand, the senior brother took some away when he left, there are still a lot of them in the warehouse, it is estimated that we put this in the wine. Liang Xie said, a few years ago, the three gangs surrounded the mountain, Tan Xingde and the rest of them were injured after a long battle, and they relied on this thing to paralyze the pain at the wound to support it, although Liang Xie didn't use it at that time, he also heard them talk about it, and Liu Shiyi also knew about it at the time, so she guessed that it was this medicine as soon as she fell to the ground last night.

"What about the two of them?" asked Liu Shiyi.

Liang Xie shook his head with a wry smile and said: "It's not there, it is estimated that I left last night, and more than half of the rice, flour, grain and oil on the mountain were also taken away, and it was difficult for them to go twice in the dark." ”

"You are kind enough to take in the two families of them, how can they do this, they should have driven them down the mountain yesterday. Liu Shiyi said quite angrily.

Liang Xie said: "Probably because I'm afraid that we will regret it in the future, forget it, it's okay if you're fine, the two of them stayed on the mountain to eat and drink, but now they just take more, they can't believe us, so let them go." ”

Liu Shiyi said bitterly: "You are not willing to eat a good meal, why did the two families steal so much?"

Liang Xie smiled and said: "If you say that you have stolen it, will you be polite to us?" Forget it, the food on the mountain is enough for us to eat for a few days, and if it doesn't work, we will worship the 'fat orange' as a teacher and catch mice to eat, and we will not starve to death." As he spoke, he reached out and pinched the cat's ears, but the cat would not let him touch them, so he buried his head between his two front paws.

Liu Shiyi heard what he said interestingly, and laughed out loud, Liang Xie was looking at her, and the two glanced at each other, but there was a dull and happy feeling in their hearts in this year shrouded in famine.

Liang Xie looked at Liu Shiyi in a daze, Liu Shiyi is already in his thirties, eight years ago, he just met her, she is quiet, soft, giving people a gripping feeling, making people have a strong desire to protect, at that time she was of the right age, different from the girl's youth, different from the little woman's nothing to do and not vexatious, she is mature, strong, independent She has her unique charm, now she is still very beautiful, but the hard work since childhood and the subsequent rush blow have left traces on her body prematurely, Liang Xie saw the fine lines at the corners of her eyes, and also saw that the lying silkworm under her eyes seemed to be slightly older than before, I also saw the two white hairs on her sideburns, and the white-haired Liang Xie herself also has it, and some people even have it in their teens, but it is inevitable that it will be emotional when it grows on a woman's head.

It's been eight years, and time flies!

The cat stretched its waist, glanced at Liang Xie without any interest, and then curled up in a ball and slept on the quilt with its head in his arms, the cat is also old, its fur has become no longer shiny, and it has become more afraid of cold, more sleepy, and lazier. When he first came to the 'Yang Dao League', this cat loves to play, loves to bark, loves to find someone to eat, throws a stone and it can chase and play for a long time, sweep the ground and be watched by it will hold the broom and not let go, now these can no longer arouse its interest, I'm afraid I won't even raise my eyelids.

Liang Xie suddenly envied the legendary immortal cultivators, they are immortal, their magic power is boundless, they can live for hundreds of years, thousands of years, or even tens of thousands of years, but I don't know who has really become an immortal except for the unverifiable legends. Yin Xi, Xu Fu, Ge Hong, Chen Tuan or Zhang Sanfeng?

If they become immortals, there will be no joys and sorrows in the world, birth, old age, sickness, death, famine, and betrayal, and their pain will be much less, but that doesn't seem to be interesting. After living for 30,000 years, what do you do every day? Playing mahjong day after day, eating, sleeping, or striving to be the first immortal in heaven and earth? It seems that no matter what you do, once it takes too long, it will become an extremely boring thing.

Liang Xie was thinking wildly, he suddenly thought of his former wife, Ren Jiaxian, who is strong, conceited, never let people, never speak softly, and likes to control everything in her hands, I don't know how she has been doing in the past two years.

Liang Xie suddenly felt a little ridiculous, he used to be the most important person in his life, and suddenly became a passerby, he didn't regret his choice, but he felt a little funny, a little mocking, fate is really fucking funny, people are really fucking funny, he doesn't even know who he will become, let alone control others.

"What are you thinking?" Liu Shiyi asked when he saw Liang Xie stunned.

"Thinking about what we were going to eat in the evening. Liang Xie made a ghost, Liu Shiyi knew, but he didn't say it clearly, and he gave him a blank look and said, "I don't seem to have eaten your cooking yet, or try your craftsmanship at night?"

Liang Xie smiled: "No problem, nothing else, we are good at boiling porridge and boiling water." ”

"Do you still need to boil the boiling water?"

"If no one boils water, will they turn it on themselves?"

“......”

The second day of the lunar month.

Get up, practice, eat, sleep. For Liang Xie, the days seem to be no different from before, the same bland, if there is any difference, then there are fewer people on the mountain, there used to be Sister Zhang, Sister Li, but now only he and Liu Shiyi are left, no, there is often the orange cat that often goes to Liu Shiyi, nicknamed 'Fat Orange', other cats are not used to dealing with people, looking at people and hiding, only it has a dead face.

In these years, the dogs are starving to death, the cattle, sheep, mules and donkeys are all killed and eaten a seven, seven or eighty-eight, the scarce goods of horses either go to war, or the cavalry who participate in the war have no food to kill and eat, the people are now very rare, only two kinds of domestic animals can survive in this year, one is the chicken, in the summer by eating locusts can lay eggs, grow fat, in the autumn to solve the problem of improving people's lives, otherwise in the winter not only to return the fat, but also to paste something upside down.

The other is the cat, for the cat as long as there is a mouse does not need to be fed by people can live very well, and the mouse is a very strange thing in the world, as long as there is food, there is no need to write a letter to inform them that they can always come accurately and in the first time, and as long as they come, they will settle down and settle down with you for generations, "Yang Dao League" has food, so there is no shortage of mice, so there are cats, and cats are skilled, martial arts, flying in the sky, running on the ground, swimming in the water, as long as it can move, it basically eats.

Since there are only two people on the mountain, Liang Xie and Liu Shiyi, Liang Xie has a general relationship with cats, and he is not very interested in chatting with mice, so the two of them naturally talk more, cooking, carrying water, chopping wood, they always have to meet, and they have to talk when they meet.

One day, two days, three days ......

The eighth day of the lunar month.

'Laba Festival', Buddhism called the 'Dharma Treasure Festival' is rumored to be the day of Sakyamuni's enlightenment, Taoism is called 'Wanghou La' is said to be the day of the five emperors will be above Xuandu Yujing, Xuandu Yujing is said to be the largest Taoist immortal 'Yuan Shi Tianzun' residence, no matter how many people don't care so much, there are festivals to pass, pray for the blessings of the gods and Buddhas and Bodhisattvas Tianzun and other masters, increase longevity, as for why people want to help you for no reason that no one cares, everyone wishful thinking, as always, without hesitation to pray.

Whether it is Buddha or Tao, it is said that Laba is to boil fruit porridge, which is commonly known as 'Laba porridge', it is said that a bowl of porridge should put several things, and it is fruits and Jiang rice, millet, chestnuts, red beans, peanuts, almonds, etc., these are not available on the mountain.

Porridge is to be boiled, things are not complete, to speak of conscience, the ingredients on the mountain are still very rich, after the patronage of the two eldest sisters' family, now there are at least corn, white flour, rice three kinds, to some masters' Ninety-nine also yang soup's method, when cooking, the combination of corn and white flour is a way to eat, the combination of white flour and rice is a way to eat, the combination of corn and rice is a way to eat, corn, white flour, rice three alone to eat is three different ways to eat, the last three eat together is also a way to eat, count a lot of patterns, countless, people who don't understand the arrangement of data can't be counted at all, as for the porridge used, a little embarrassing, but it doesn't matter, Liang Xie they drink porridge every day, the stomach is empty, a meal can't wait for the next meal, sometimes two times the knife practice can not move。

It doesn't matter what you use to boil porridge, the important thing is that as long as the porridge boiled on this day can be called 'Laba porridge', and with 'Laba porridge', you can count Laba.

The days are getting colder and colder, and the days are passing day by day, and in the blink of an eye, it has reached the twenty-second day of the lunar month, and tomorrow is the New Year.

The life of the two in the mountains is plain and slow, Liang Xie helps Liu Shiyi clean up, carry water, chop wood, and cook together in addition to practicing martial arts every day, Liu Shiyi does not like to practice martial arts, only occasionally and Liang Xie has two tricks, and the rest of the time is either sewing clothes or watching Liang Xie practice, for her, practicing martial arts is just a means to change her fate and get out of the sea of suffering, not a tool to dominate the rivers and lakes, now she feels that everything is fine, she no longer needs to practice martial arts.
