Li Mo had already planned to stay in the village for a few days and then go to the mountains for retreat. Be prepared. I also made a lot of hard buns, which are resistant to storage and hunger.

Qiu Tao sat under a big tree outside, embroidering her own picture of a hundred flowers, and let her go when she saw Li Mo. "Mo Niang, what do you think of my embroidery?"

Li Mo walked over and glanced at the hundred flowers embroidered at the beginning, "It's beautiful, your hands are really skillful, the embroidery looks like the real thing." ”

Qiu Tao's craftsmanship is really good, embroidery has almost become can't, occasionally you don't need to look at it can follow the lines to embroider out, your hands don't stop, but your head is raised, "You are too lazy, you said that you draw patterns so well, if you are willing to practice hard, maybe embroider better than me." I'll teach you, you're not willing to learn. By the way, why haven't you asked me to help you sell embroidery samples recently?"

Li Mo was busy with how to cultivate every day, how could he still have the time to paint flowers for the silver that was less than half a tael a month. But Qiu Tao will look for her in this village, don't find out that she is not there at that time, and think of an excuse.

He sat down on the stump of a tree on the side, "I never told you, but I actually found a job." I specially painted patterns for an embroidery shop, but I didn't tell you that it was required to be kept secret. I may be moving to the town in a few days, and the owner has arranged a house, saying that I am not afraid of leaking out if I live with the embroidery girls. ”

Qiu Tao was envious, but she didn't think there was anything strange. Mo Niang's painting is so good, the embroidery is novel and beautiful. She didn't know much, but even if she saw it, she didn't think it was ordinary. "It's good that you're living in town. My third brother has also started to follow my eldest brother and second brother to run darts everywhere this year, and I really want to go outside to have a look. ”

Li Mo saw that she was a little depressed, and persuaded, "The town is not very far, if you want to go, let Aunt Wang take you to play." ”

Qiu Tao pouted, "How can it be the same, I also want to live in the town." I heard that every little girl in the town is tender and white, and she wears the most fashionable silk flowers on her head. You don't have to work in the fields yet. ”

Li Mo smiled, "Aunt Wang loves you so much, when did you be willing to let you work on the ground, don't you also look white and tender, and you are so beautiful." ”

Qiu Tao was really in a good mood, and lowered her voice, "Actually, my eldest brother said that he wanted to buy a house in the town, and he has saved some money over the years." But my father disagreed, saying that our ancestors lived here, and the roots were here. ”

"Even if the home and roots are here, you can also buy a house in the town, and your three brothers have been running outside for a long time, so it is more convenient to live in the town. ”

"No, that's what my eldest brother said, it seems that he is optimistic about the house, and he quarreled with my father about it. Finally, I made a good trip and ran out again. But my third brother is still at home. ”

When I got home, I saw that the yard was a little dusty and cleaned it. The cultivator's facial features are sensitive, and he can feel that there are people outside the courtyard when he is busy in the courtyard, Luoluo jumped down from the roof, and said in front of Li Mo, like what kind of joke,

"There's a kid out there who's walked around your yard several times, don't you have a little lover at such a young age? Oh, I forgot that you're almost ready to marry in this village. In the past two days, Luoluo has followed Li Mo, and I have heard Qiu Tao say a lot of interesting things in the village, that little sister is ready to get married again, and the big man is married again.

Li Mo glanced at her, "Don't talk nonsense, I'm a cultivator." He opened the door and went out.

As soon as he walked to the door, a thin but tall man dressed in black came over somewhere next to him, and when he saw the courtyard door open, he walked over to Li Mo and said, "Ah, such a coincidence, are you going out?"

The man Li Mo recognized as speaking was Qiu Tao's brother Ma Sanlang. The three brothers of the Ma family are very lazy in choosing names, the eldest lang, the second erlang, this is the third. It is said that they began to follow their eldest brother to guard last year, and they have also learned boxing and foot kung fu since they were children. This year, it is rare to go from south to north. Li Mo still met once during the Chinese New Year. At that time, Li Mo was embroidering with Qiu Tao, and he came over to call Qiu Tao home for dinner.

"It's Third Brother Ma, why are you back, don't you need a bodyguard recently?" Ma Sanlang's eyes were very hot, which made Li Mo a little uncomfortable.

He said, "I just finished a run, and I'm going to go out when I go home to rest for a while." By the way," he said, he patted himself on the head, took out a pair of silver bracelets from his bosom, and continued, "You see, I didn't have any gifts for such a coincidence. This is the bracelet that was originally intended to be given to Qiu Tao, so it happened that my eldest brother also gave it to her with a pair of touches. Isn't this more? Send you. ”

Li Mo looked at him, this excuse was too bad. didn't answer, and looked at him with a cold face, "Yes, it's really a coincidence." ”

Ma Sanlang blushed a little, and stepped forward to pull Li Mo's hand and stuff it for her. Li Mo took a step back and avoided it.

looked at him firmly, "Third Brother Ma, I can't accept this, since it's the same touch, you can give it to Qiu Tao, wouldn't it be better to make a pair." I still have something to do, so I'll go back first. After saying that, he didn't care about him, entered the house, and re-tied the door.

Ma Sanlang was still thinking about Li Mo's sentence "Make a pair." He was still standing in place, his dark face with a suspicious red.

But the rabbit was lying at the kitchen door, holding his stomach and laughing and shouting, "Hahaha! ”

A few days later, carrying a big burden, Li Mo took advantage of the darkness of the night when no one was around, and went to the back mountain. By the faint moonlight, it was a moving snail. Li Mo brought a few sets of changing clothes, a lot of buns, thinking that maybe he would have to barbecue, and he also packed a big bag of oil, salt, sauce and vinegar seasonings. I thought it would be heavy, but when I carried it, I realized that my strength had increased. But when carrying such a big bag of things and sitting behind Rhubarb into the mountain, Rhubarb's speed was much slower.

There is no time in the mountains, and cultivating this thing is addictive. Li Mo felt that he had found the feeling of doing questions before the college entrance examination that year, and he was addicted to it and couldn't extricate himself. Except for the occasional barbecue in the first few days, now I eat steamed buns when I'm hungry, drink water when I'm thirsty, and I don't have to sleep, and the whole thing is a cultivation machine. During this period, I went back to the village to make up for the buns a few times.

At noon, I nested at the entrance of the cave to bask in the sun, sometimes followed the rhubarb to hunt, went to the forest to pick wild fruits, caught fish in the stream, and occasionally played tricks on small animals. The most amazing thing is that relying on the bottles and cans of seasoning, he actually learned to barbecue. Li Mo has eaten it, and the taste is even better than that of his own roast. I really doubt that his little paw did that.

On this day, Li Mo put away his breath. Walking out of the cave, Luoluo was rolling on the tender grass and playing. It's spring. Relying on the massive amount of spiritual energy in the cave, he cultivated day and night, and only then did he break through to the second level of qi training. The aura is getting thinner and thinner day by day. Now, it's no different from the outside.

"Luoluo, everyone else cultivates like this. I've only practiced the second layer of qi, and my aura is almost exhausted. ”

Luoluo was biting a piece of grass, and when he heard the words, he spit it out, and replied, "Mortal towns have no aura. If the aura was strong, there would have been monks who would have come to open the mountain and establish a sect. ”

"So, I'm going to the monk's town to cultivate. Li Mo thought that he might be able to meet his younger brother when he went to the monk's town, and asked, "Luoluo, do you know where Tianzhu Mountain is?"

"I haven't heard of it, don't come to ask your uncle if it's not famous. ”

"So why are we going to the monk's town?"

"There is no immortal cultivation city in this broken place, but I do know that there is an immortal mountain not far from here, where is there a monk's market, I should be able to ask. ”

Bulao Mountain is in Jinyang City on the border of the Zhou State, but for Li Mo, who can't fly, it is not as far away as Luoluo said, on the contrary, it is very far.

Knowing that the aura here was useless to him, Li Mo returned to his home in the village. After a brief packing, we were ready to go. Li Mo also wrote a letter to his brother and put it in the small hole in the room where they had hidden the silver before.
