23. Xanadu Peach Blossom Village
Giggle!
Giggle!
An old earthy yellow hen fluttered her short wings and emerged from the grass.
With her neck held high, she looked like a proud little princess.
A small dirt dog barked lazily next to him.
The breeze blows, and the peach blossoms fall.
It's an idyllic sight.
"Big brother!"
"Big brother!"
"Look what good stuff I've picked up. A small figure in the distance was running, raising the small basket in his hand, and the smile on his face was bright, reflecting the peach blossoms.
"What's good?" Xiang Yang asked.
It was a week since he was rescued by Wang Chen.
After cultivation, the injuries on Xiang Yang's body were also healed.
And Wang Chen's village has a nice name, that is, Peach Blossom Village.
The remote geographical location, coupled with the dangerous mountain roads, makes Taohua Village a paradise.
The people are simple and simple, and they don't close their doors at night.
What surprised Xiang Yang even more was that there were many martial artists in the village, including Wang Chen and the village chief who were the top masters of the Inner Qi Perfection Realm, and the strong ones who were strong enough to be the blacksmith, Mr. Teaching, and the master Douhua Mother-in-law who was a small master of internal qi.
Good guy, there are four Inner Qi Realm martial artists, as well as several Body Refining Realm martial artists, and these martial artists have actually gathered in a small village with only a few dozen people.
Incredible.
"It's a red fruit, it's sweet, you taste it. Jiu Jiu carried the small basket and said.
The size of a fingernail, red and delightful, it is pleasing to look at.
Xiang Yang recognized that in his previous world, it was called Scoop, which was commonly known as Forest Wild Strawberry.
"Yes, that's sweet. Xiang Yang picked one up and threw it into his mouth.
"Then the big brother eat more. Jiu Jiu said as if offering treasures.
"Okay, let's eat together. Xiang Yang picked up a scoop and handed it to Jiu Jiu's mouth.
Chewing the scoop, Jiujiu smiled happily.
"Let's go home and cook and eat. Xiang Yang took Jiu Jiu's little hand and turned around and walked to the thatched house.
Jiujiu is not five years old, but seven years old, just malnourished.
As soon as he entered the house, Jiu Jiu saw the hare and pheasant fluttering in the corner of the house, and couldn't help but ask curiously: "Big brother, where did the hare and pheasant come from? Did you catch them?"
"Naturally, my brother caught it, and today my brother made you something to eat. Xiang Yang nodded.
"It's so good, there's meat to eat. Jiu Jiu clapped his hands.
"Little gluttonous cat. Xiang Yang nodded his nose and carried the hare and pheasant out of the house.
When Wang Chen came back from fishing, Xiang Yang had already prepared a table of dishes.
Red stewed rabbit meat, spicy chicken, plus two wild vegetables, this is already the treatment of Wang Chen's family for the New Year.
Wang Chen also took out the treasured good wine and drank a few glasses with Xiang Yang Meimei.
After being full of wine and food, Wang Chen suddenly asked, "Brother Xiang wants to leave?"
"Big brother, do you really want to leave?" Jiu Jiu, who was looking down and nibbling on the chicken legs, couldn't help but raise his head.
"Well, I've bothered you for so long, it's time to leave. Xiang Yang nodded.
A mist rose in Jiujiu's eyes, and he choked up: "Big brother, but I am reluctant to let you go." ”
Xiang Yang touched Jiu Jiu's head, and said reluctantly: "Brother is reluctant to you, but my brother has his own things to do!" If you don't want to cultivate, if you don't want to see this piece of world, Xiang Yang really wants to live here forever and enjoy a rare peach life.
"Will the big brother come back to see Jiujiu?" said Jiujiu a little sluggishly.
"Yes, I promise. Xiang Yang said solemnly.
"Then I'll wait for you. Jiujiu's mood is a little better.
"Cheers!" Wang Chen picked up the wine glass.
"Dry!" the wine glasses collided, and everything was silent.
Throughout the day, no matter what Xiang Yang did, Jiu Jiu had always been by Xiang Yang's side.
Xiang Yang is also willing to be with Jiujiu, playing and telling stories.
Unconsciously, the sunset set, the full moon rose into the sky, and Jiujiu fell asleep in Xiangyang's arms.
Xiang Yang used the innate five elements mana to help Jiu Jiu regulate his body, and then put Jiu Jiu on the bed.
When Xiang Yang walked out of the house, he saw Wang Chen standing in the courtyard with his head up, a little lonely and said, "Since her mother died, she has become very withdrawn. Hardly ever talk to strangers, let alone be as close as you. ”
A man with a story.
Xiang Yang did not ask Wang Chen about the past, but enjoyed the moon with Wang Chen.
"You're a Taoist, right?" Wang Chen said suddenly.
"When did you find out?" Xiang Yang said in surprise.
"Although the river that flows through our Peach Blossom Village is only a small tributary of the Tongtian River, the river is crooked, the water is fast, and the reefs are everywhere, and even the most powerful boatmen dare not come downstream. What's more, there is a waterfall at the entrance to the village, with a drop of 30 meters, how can ordinary people pass through it alive?"
Speaking of this, Wang Chen turned his head to look at Xiang Yang and said with a smile: "The most important thing is that you are getting better too quickly, enough for ordinary people to lie down for half a year's injury, and it only took you a week to return to normal." ”
Xiang Yang nodded and asked, "Then Brother Wang, you still save me, aren't you really afraid of getting into trouble?"
However, the law of the Wei State stipulates that anyone who secretly hides Taoists will be connected to the nine clans.
"Because I want to ask my brother for something. Wang Chen said.
"Tell me about it. "Xiangyang doesn't have a packing ticket.
For commitments, Xiangyang still attaches great importance to them, and Xiangyang will never easily agree to what he can't do.
"Take Jiujiu away. Wang Chen said.
"What?" Xiang Yang thought he had misheard.
"Take Jiujiu away. Wang Chen said again.
"Brother Wang, since you already know that I am a cultivator, then you should also know the situation in the cultivation world, right?" Without waiting for Wang Chen to answer, Xiang Yang said to himself: "The entire cultivation world is now flourishing Buddhism, and our Daomen can only survive in the deep mountains and old forests, and there is always a danger of extinction. ”
After a pause, Xiang Yang looked at Wang Chen, and asked with a serious face: "In this case, maybe I will be caught by the monk in the next moment, once Jiujiu follows me, it will be difficult to have a stable life, and Brother Wang still wants me to take Jiujiu away?"
"I've thought about it a long time ago, it's better to live with you than her alone, life and death are in the sky, who can say anything about the world?" Wang Chen nodded heavily and added: "Besides, I only believe in you." ”
"Okay, I'll take Jiujiu away. Xiang Yang didn't ask Wang Chen where he was going and what he was going to do.
This person's fate is so wonderful, some people can intersect with life and death even if they meet for the first time, and some people will stab you in the back even if they get along for a lifetime.
Wang Chen belongs to the first type of person.
Xiang Yang could see that Wang Chen loved Jiu Jiu very much.
Now that Wang Chen can leave Jiujiu, it must be something more important than his life.
If you want to say it, Wang Chen will naturally say it.
Not to mention, there are naturally unspeakable hidden, why force it?
Neither of them spoke again, and each stood in the courtyard all night thinking about his thoughts.
Early in the morning, facing the early sun, Wang Chen left with a big knife without saying goodbye to Jiujiu.
"Dad, Dad......" Jiu Jiu looked for Wang Chen everywhere.
"Jiujiu, your dad is gone. Xiang Yang said truthfully.
"Dad, Dad......" Jiujiu didn't believe that Wang Chen would abandon her, and still didn't give up looking for her.
"Jiujiu, my brother will take care of you. Xiang Yang looked distressed and said.
"Big brother, can I still see my father?" Jiu Jiu's little face was full of uneasiness and confusion.
"Yes, as long as you're obedient. Xiang Yang could only say this.
"Okay, Jiu Jiu is obedient, don't cry......" said and said, Jiu Jiu was already in tears.
Simply brought some dry food, and Xiang Yang led Jiujiu and left Peach Blossom Village.
Standing at the entrance of the village, Jiu Jiu turned back three times step by step, Xiang Yang will never forget.
What Xiang Yang didn't know was that at the same moment, there was another girl who left the house with hatred.
