Chapter 30: Paradise on Earth

Before he approached the village, he had just reached the entrance of the valley when Nanling heard the melodious sound of the recorder. He looked up at the beautiful sound, but not far away, there was a beautiful and tender girl standing on the shore of the Yuejian Lake, with two green and white arms gently holding a billet glowing with moonlight.

Beside her was an equally beautiful long-haired girl, graceful and delicate-skinned, dancing to the melodious sound of the flute.

Between the gestures, the delicate but youthful girl reflects the white moonlight in the sky and the royal blue tranquil lake, like a beautiful picture.

When the two girls saw Yuegu and the others, they quietly stopped the movements of their hands, stepped forward obediently and elegantly, and bowed their knees slightly towards everyone, their sweet voices were ethereal: "Elder, you are back." With that, one of the girls secretly raised her beautiful eyes, glanced at Nan Ling without shyness, and smiled at him with kindness and friendliness.

Nanling nervously pulled out a stiff smile in return.

The other girl looked at her companion beside her, and then at Nan Ling's instantly flushed face, and couldn't help but burst out laughing. The smiling face bloomed like the moon falling and the sky was white, and the white lotus in the ink pool appeared when it opened with the movement of the boat, the teeth were slightly exposed, the cheeks were slightly red, and the eyes looked at Nanling curiously, playful and cute, and very good-looking.

The other blushed slightly, and all of them lightly hammered her in disgust, signaling her to smile a little more ladylikely.

"Yueli, Yuehong, I've seen Nanling Shaoxia. ”

Moonbone smiled kindly and looked at the two girls tenderly. The two girls straightened their soft bodies and knew the etiquette very well: "I've seen Nanling Shaoxia." ”

Moon Bone nodded, invited them to get up, and after a few pleasantries, the two girls laughed and ran away.

Following the slender backs of Yueli and Yuehong, everyone paced into the village of Yuejian.

"The young man is still playing around in our village, the village of the moon is hospitable, and he is not an outsider when he comes. I still have some things to do, Yueya's girl just came back, and she still needs me to educate her, so I won't accompany her. Moon Bone said respectfully, sending two attendants to follow Nanling.

Nan Ling couldn't help but be a little nervous when he came to such a crowded place for the first time, but after a while, he relaxed, and unconsciously slowed down his pace, as if he was strolling leisurely, watching flowers and admiring the moon, not because of anything else, but because this village of moon saw was simply a paradise.

The village is indeed not too big, as the moon bone said, and there are just a few simple plank roads paved with bluestone as the main road. The stone houses of different heights are staggered, not cluttered at all, the houses are paved with green tiles, and the courtyard built of bluestone is planted with tall and luxuriant purple-red triangular plum and tender green willows, which are simple and tasteful.

The village is lively at this time, the lights are bright, the old people enjoy the coolness, the children are playing, people are walking by, or playing music and dancing, talking eagerly, the village is wafting with the aroma of triangular plum and the melodious sound of musical instruments, and everyone's face is filled with happy smiles. The clear stream drawn by Lake Tsukimi runs through the entire village, and it is very leisurely and beautiful. The curling smoke wafted out of the house, and the gusts of evening breeze blew the moist water vapor and the smell of fireworks in the world, all of which made Nan Ling linger.

But such a peaceful and peaceful atmosphere is a paradise on earth.

Everywhere Nanling passed, everyone was very enthusiastic. The village of Tsukimi was not very surprised by this newcomer, and his eyes did not shy away, and they all took the initiative to smile and nod their heads to say hello.

After wandering around like this for a while, a slightly noisy noise came into Nanling's ears not far away.

From time to time, there were people talking to each other on the street, and they were walking in that direction excitedly, Nan Ling was a little curious, and followed, and found that under a huge locust tree in front of him, he was surrounded by villagers.

Loud shouts and laughter swept out of the center of the crowd, and Nan Ling stood outside the crowd, and because of his height, he could see a little bit of the center of the crowd with a little stepping on his feet. I saw two rugged men sitting cross-legged opposite each other, with their backs slumped and their drunken burps. His face was flushed, his eyes were wide, his teeth were grinning, and his neck was struggling.

The feet of the two of them were full of crushed or poured mud altars, the evening breeze was blowing, and the rich aroma of wine mixed with the aroma of the locust tree spread and floated, Nan Ling took a deep breath, refreshing and uncomfortable.

It turned out to be a gambling on alcohol. I wonder who of these two heroes has the best drink?

At this time, Nanling came quite unfortunately, and the game was already coming to an end. Nan Ling observed the two of them, the one on the left was sturdy, with black and red skin, hair and hair, bull's nose and tiger eyes, the left eye was already blind, and a terrifying long scar was across his face, making his face quite fierce. The one on the left has a big belly with a pot lid, a bare head, eyebrows that reach the corners of his eyes, and a large gold tooth inlaid with a large open mouth.

Nan Ling watched quietly. The black-skinned man was in a state of full swing at this time, and the more he drank, the more energetic he became, his long beard was stuck to wisps of wine, one hand was clutching a mud jar, and his eyes were pouring wine without blinking.

The big gold tooth on the right is no longer strong enough to drink, his eyes are misty, his body is spinning, and his skin is already slightly red from excessive drinking. His eyes glazed over, he rolled his eyes, and finally fell to the ground unconscious amid the shouting and noise of the crowd.

The crowd erupted in cheers, and the black-skinned man lifted up his hands and feet, and dragged him through the streets to celebrate his victory, despite the fact that he had drunk five horses and spears.

Such an interesting scene, Nanling is the first time to see it.

But for some reason, he couldn't get rid of the strange feeling in Nan Ling's heart. It felt like a thorn in his finger, it didn't hurt, and he didn't care much, but under the caressing, there was a slight feeling, which caused Nanling to care.

The clothes and appearances of those two men can be seen at a glance that they are strangers like themselves. The two of them have been settled here for a while, and seeing that the village of Tsukimi is so hospitable, they don't want to leave, and they plan to enjoy a carefree life here forever.

When the crowd dispersed, Nan Ling did not follow the cheering crowd to parade through the streets, but stood quietly aside, carefully observing the man with gold teeth who fell to the ground and did not wake up. A moment later, two villagers appeared out of nowhere, picked up the man as if nothing had happened, and disappeared into the darkness around the corner.

Nan Ling's gaze followed them until the three of them disappeared.

It may be that the legend about the white wolf has always made Nanling feel a little relieved, and these two gambling and drinking strangers have always made Nanling's heart feel a little strange. He turned his head to look around, and found that he was in the central square area of Yuejian Village, which was quite lively, brightly lit, and full of people, making Nanling feel like a world away.

He settled down and followed the attendants that Moonbone had arranged for him on his way to his lodgings in the village of Tsukimi.

It was a quaint and quiet small courtyard, and there was a luxuriant pink peach tree planted in the yard, and the pink petals spread all over the small courtyard, which was very clean and beautiful. There are no buildings around, and the voices of people in the distance are not heard here at all. Behind it is the beautiful Lake Tsukimi. The attendant lit an oil lamp for Nanling, sent some fruits, sugar tea, and the like, and retreated. Nan Ling looked around the room and looked at the magnificent night view of Yuejian Lake, but he really had nothing to do, so he simply sat up on the bed and held his breath to practice the exercises taught by the master.
