Chapter 165: A Loquat Fruit
"Since we want to help the villagers solve the problem, shouldn't we lift the seal and resume the cultivation? After Tu Shanshan tasted the wowotou, which was a little astringent and hard to swallow, she secretly made up her mind that she must help the villagers return to their former comfortable life.
Zhou Geng said with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth: "We focus on penance and love this time, if we rely on supernatural spells to solve everything, wouldn't there be a lot less opportunities to experience it firsthand?"
"So I think that unless you have to, don't break the seal and resume your cultivation first, unless you really encounter something that can't be solved, so it's better to use the power of your body as much as possible. ”
Zhou Geng said, Tu Shanshan sisters both nodded in agreement, and he said again: "Just now I saw that the villagers are all sallow, thin, hungry, and most of them are weak and weak, so the two of you stay in the village tonight to protect everyone, I will take advantage of the night to go to the mountains to find some food for the villagers to come back, otherwise I am afraid that the villagers will starve to death." ”
"Uh-huh, go ahead, my sister and I will take care of everyone. ”
When Zhou Geng was about to turn around and leave, Tu Shanshan grabbed his hand, with affection in his eyes, and said: "Zhou, the hazy moonlight, the mountain road must be difficult to walk, you must pay attention to safety, don't fall and bump into the potholed road under your feet, otherwise I will be worried." ”
Zhou Geng's expression was slightly surprised, and the other party confirmed with him that the relationship between men and women had reached this point, as if it was the first time to call him so affectionately, and he immediately replied with a smile.
"Yes, my wife. ”
After saying that, he quietly went out of the door, disappeared into the moonlight, touched the darkness in the distance, and disappeared completely.
The villagers who were waiting outside the door did not notice him leaving, which shows that he has not cultivated, and his body method is still excellent, which is not comparable to ordinary people.
Zhou Geng left the village and ran all the way on the open plain, occasionally with a few low mounds blocking the way, and he jumped over the small mounds dozens or hundreds of meters high.
About two or three hours, Zhou Geng came from the new 100,000 mountains that he had just walked out of yesterday.
Although he had now sealed his cultivation, the surrounding environment, under the scanning of his eyes, was still clearly recognizable, and it was no different from the daylight.
"I remember seeing a few wild boars, pheasants, and hares in the mountains, and now it's a long night, and I guess these animals are sleeping in their nests, but I don't know where the nests are. ”
Zhou Geng also felt very distressed, he didn't have the experience of ending people's nests, he usually caught them when he saw them, but now he wants to find the nests of animals, he seems a little helpless, and he doesn't know where to start.
"No matter, let's take it one step at a time. ”
Looking up at the bright moon overhead, Zhou Geng took a step, looking around for food to eat between the barren mountains and mountains.
After a few hours of tossing, Zhou Geng looked at the food in the Qiankun bag, smiled happily and nodded, and looked up at the starry sky again, only to see that the bright moon was about to disappear, and the sky was gradually brightening.
"I should be able to make breakfast for everyone when I go back now. ”
Zhou even burst out at the fastest speed, with the power of his physical body alone, comparable to teleportation, one breath appeared in the distance, and another breath disappeared into the sky.
The Tu Shanshan sisters in the village were lying on the table boredly, with their hands on their cheeks, their eyelids lowered, and they looked uneasy.
"Sister, you said he wouldn't have left us and run away, did he? Otherwise, you see that the sky is dawning, and the people are still nowhere to be seen. Tu Rongfu glanced at the sky outside the window, it was gradually brightening, and turned his head to look at his sister.
"Why, since he has made us wait here, he will surely return. Although he usually looks a little unreliable, but in this case, I believe he will never be indifferent. Tu Shanshan's eyes were very affirmative, and she barely doubted what he meant.
Boom!
Zhou Geng pushed open the door of the thatched house, "Two beauties, I'm back!"
"Look, I said he would come back, and you still don't believe it. ”
Tu Shanshan hurriedly stepped forward, threw herself into his arms, raised her head slightly, stared at his eyes, and said, "Why have you been there for so long? ”
"I'm sorry you worried about me, and as compensation, I have prepared a special gift for you. ”
Zhou Geng put his hand into the Qiankun bag, and clenched his fist when he withdrew it, "You open it and take a look!"
"It's so mysterious!"
Tu Shanshan said this, but he still opened his fist with anticipation, and saw a small fruit that was bright and delicate and translucent, crystal clear, and bright red like jade, and the whole was a heart-shaped.
"What kind of fruit is this, how come I've never seen it?" she said, covering her mouth in surprise.
"It's called the Fruit of the Branches, it's not a spiritual fruit, it's an ordinary fruit, but its shape has a special meaning, such as I love you, as evidence, representing my heart. ”
Zhou even hugged the waist of the beauty in his arms, put it in her ear, and whispered: "I only have this one on me, I picked it for you, but I have to put it away." ”
"Uh-huh!" Tu Shanshan nodded happily and kissed him.
The light bulb that had been standing next to the two for a long time was Tu Fufu, looking at his sister and Zhou Geng hugging and hugging, Qingqing and me, completely leaving her aside and ignoring her.
Angry, Tu Fufu made a straight face, crossed his hands in front of his chest, and kept humming and reminding: "Hey, hey...... Have you two considered my feelings? Now you are even talking secretly, for fear that I will hear or something. ”
"I'm really sorry to forget about you for a while. Seeing that you don't have much to do now, why don't you come out and help me cook the broth together, and then we will share it with the villagers. ”
His words made Tu Rongfu even more unhappy, she was also a big beauty, the other party actually regarded her as air, even if she didn't say anything good, she actually asked her to help with the work, the main reason was that she couldn't refuse, and she had nowhere to vent with a fire in her heart.
"I'm here to help, too!" Tu Shanshan took the initiative to speak.
"How can I be willing to let you do such tiring work, so you better rest in the house, and I'll accompany you when I'm done. ”
Zhou Geng's words completely annoyed Tu Fufu on the side, and said, "Why can my sister rest, but I have to work with you?"
"Because she's your sister!"
Zhou Geng's simple single sentence made Tu Rong speechless, and he couldn't find a reason to refute it, like a needle stabbed in a dead hole.
"Let's go, Miss Ten Fingers Don't Touch the Spring Water, let you really experience the life of the lowest mortal in the world. ”
Zhou even beckoned Tu Fufu to come to the yard, took out more than a dozen cauldrons, and took out the wild boars, pheasants, and so on that he had hunted from the mountains last night.
He instructed Tu Fufu to go to the only old well in the yard to fetch water, rinse the carcasses of wild boars, pheasants and other animals, and boil them in a while.
"I'm angry, I'm angry......" Tu Fufu complained as he cleaned the animal carcass.
Zhou Geng took in everything and snickered: "Hurry up! My water is about to boil." ”
"What do you urge, if you urge me again, I won't do it, let you do it yourself. Tu Fu glared at him with resentful eyes.
The villagers have been hungry for several days, and now they are exhausted, and your current speed determines their lives. ”
Zhou even wanted her to speed up, so he began to scare and scare her with the current situation of the villagers, so that she could know the seriousness of the situation.
"Got it! I'll just try to hurry. "Every time Tu Rongfu wants to get angry, the other party can always find a reason to make her extinguish the fire.
Soon, Tu Rongfu endured the discomfort in her heart, cleaned a large number of animals in front of her, and handed over the rest of the steps to Zhou Geng to deal with.
In fact, the wild boars and pheasants cleaned by Tu Fu were all processed by Zhou Geng in advance, but there were some blood stains on them, which needed to be rinsed with water, so she was asked to experience it herself.
"It's pretty clean! There's nothing to do with you next, if you want to help and learn with an open mind, I might as well teach you. Looking at the slaughter that was just a simple rinse of the animal, but made himself wet and furry, Zhou Geng asked.
"Don't learn!" Tu Rongfu didn't hesitate, refused, turned around and walked back to the house to change clothes, whether he was busy or not.
Zhou Geng shook his head and smiled bitterly, but it is understandable, after all, Tu Rongrong has been pampered since he was a child, Tu Wanling carries the big things, and his sister Tu Shanshan solves the small things, so these are just commonplace for ordinary people, and it is a little difficult for Tu Rongrong.
"I'll help you! That's how she loses her temper, if you want her to change it, it won't work overnight, and it may be possible to slowly and imperceptibly. Tu Shanshan came to him and said.
"My dear wife is right! blame me for thinking things too simply. ”
When Zhou Geng saw her, he immediately showed a smile and continued: "If my wife wants to help, then help me look at the water in the pot, and if it boils, you can notify me." ”
"Good!"
Tu Shanshan knew that Zhou Geng was good to her, and she didn't ask her to do dirty and tiring work, just simply guarding the cauldron, but she still nodded happily, at least she could help a little, and she was really happy in her heart.
Zhou even wanted the meat of wild boars and pheasants to be cooked quickly, so he directly chopped the meat into small pieces with a black iron knife, and added a small amount of spiritual grass to the pot to strengthen the body and replenish qi and blood.
If he put too much, he was afraid that the villagers would not be able to withstand the medicinal effects of the spirit grass, resulting in the seven orifices bleeding and exploding to death, and then it would really become a good intention to do bad things.
For a long time, there was a burst of fragrance wafting out of the yard, and the villagers came to smell the fragrance from afar, and they stood at the door of the yard one after another, swallowing saliva one by one, it seemed that they were hungry, but after all, they did not step into the yard.
Because, the old village chief had instructed them that no one should disturb the rest of the immortal masters, and they were not allowed to trespass into the courtyard without permission.
"Mother, Dabao is hungry, Dabao wants to eat that. A child of a few years old pointed to the cauldron wafting from the yard and tugged at his mother's sleeve with the other hand.
"Dabao, don't point fingers, that's the food of the immortals. If Dabao is really hungry, my mother still has half a nest here, and the taste is the same. The child's mother didn't dare to have half of the extravagant hope for the meat in the cauldron, so she took out the nest head and coaxed the child.
"But the wowo head is so hard!"
"The mother hurried to fetch some water, chewed a little and swallowed it. ”
In this scene outside the courtyard, Tu Shanshan's sensitive nerves were touched, and she almost burst into tears on the spot, perhaps because she was also a woman, which made her feel so much.
