Mozun is forced to farm
Chapter 21
-1-
Said that he was going to dig the fifth brother's grave, Xie Xuechen still looked back at the rice seedlings in the field before leaving, always feeling that something was not aligned.
Lin Zhu raised his hand and put the big straw hat on top of his head.
Xie Xuechen looked sideways at him:?
"Aren't you going to sunbathe?"
"Do not."
He felt that the straw hat, which was too wide, was unnecessary, so he continued to wear it, and walked back with Lin Zhu.
After the four of them met and were about to go up the mountain, Second Aunt Kang specially handed over a big straw basket for Lin Zhu to carry on his back.
Su Hongxiu hesitated and said, "This is..."
"Carry it on your back! If you save it, there are too many things to bring back." Second Aunt Kang hung the rag on the hemp rope, turned her head and said, "Go, go, have fun."
Lin Zhu walked out with a straw basket on his back, and when he turned around, he saw the three people behind him all with blank faces.
"Let's go." He laughed: "I'll take you to the mountain to eat fruit."
Su Hongxiu has only lived here for a few days, and she feels barren everywhere.
She originally stayed here to find out the secrets of the Demon Lord and the traitorous immortal. Seeing that she was going to play in a strange place, she subconsciously clenched her sword tightly.
It's time to go up the mountain.
Looking from a distance, the mountains and mountains are full of verdant green. When you approach the entrance of the trail and look up the mountain, it is as black as the blood vessels of a monster.
Lin Zhu was familiar with the mountain road and deliberately walked ahead, leading them up the stream, picking a bunch of wild grapes in the forest and washing them.
"Try it."
Su Hongxiu carefully ate one: "It's so sweet!! How can there be grapes at this time!!"
"Mountain grapes are nothing more than grapes, they don't grow on vines, they hang on the treetops."
Xie Mingyan heard the sound and looked into the distance. There were green and gray trees from near to far, but there was nothing.
He reached out and pressed his fingertips on Lin Zhu's forehead, and looked at it from the same angle, and suddenly many colors appeared in his vision.
The purple ones are raspberries, the wild loquats are hanging high, the white thatch by the stream can be used to make herbal tea, and the green branches in the grass can be wrung out to steam rice...
Wherever people see mountains in their field of vision, they are all looking at the back kitchen.
Lin Zhu suddenly had his mind read again, and he was not angry, Zhi Leng stood beside him for a while, and suddenly said: "Ah, there are bird eggs there."
Xie Mingyan let go of his hands, and said strangely: "You really haven't practiced?"
Su Hongxiu was still concentrating on eating grapes: "Ah, where did the chat end?"
Xie Xuechen hadn't said a word since he went up the mountain. He observed quietly for a while, thinking whether he was worth speaking.
There are waterfalls in the mountains, which are suitable for meditation and practice. He has traversed the mountains several times, and he has already clearly understood the deep and shallow caves, birds and animals.
At this moment, seeing Lin Zhu jumping over to look for the bird's eggs on the branch, suddenly there is a feeling of pity for a falcon watching a chipmunk.
Is that all you can see, mortals?
As long as you have the slightest spiritual consciousness...
He didn't speak indifferently until he saw Su Hongxiu holding a straw basket and Lin Zhu bent over and carefully put all five big bird eggs in.
"Less than half a mile to the west, there is a wild honey nest."
The scholar's ears perked up: "Really?!"
"Further to the northwest, there are three pheasant nests, the grass snake has just laid eggs, and there are mandarin fish in the river."
He spoke casually, and the lighter his tone, the more powerful he seemed.
"The fruit in the apricot grove is unripe and astringent, but the sour vines and golden cherry seeds nearby have grown well."
Lin Zhu's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he boasted vigorously: "As expected of Brother Xuechen! You have only been to the mountain a few times and you have explored everything?"
Xie Xuechen snorted lightly: "There's no need to probe."
At this time, Fifth Brother said quietly: "You usually use your spiritual sense to do this?"
"..." Mozun looked at Jie Mingyan, and said for a long time: "I remembered, I haven't dug your grave yet."
"??"
When killing intent was everywhere, Su Hongxiu yelled: "What are you waiting for! Let's go buy some goods!"
Xie Mingyan hesitated slightly: "Can the food on the mountain be delicious?"
Before he finished speaking, two grapes were stuffed into his mouth.
"Try it yourself!"
Jie Ming chewed and chewed: "I have opened my spiritual consciousness! Let's go! There are golden cherry seeds to eat in front of me!"
Yixian was full of energy and rushed forward without a hatchet, and directly relied on the sword and fire spell to clear the way, which meant a harvest festival.
Lin Zhu walked behind and before he had time to say anything, he saw wild jujubes and white peaches flying from the mid-air into the grass basket in clusters and branches in the east mountain of the West Mountain, and the fat fish in the stream fluttered and jumped to the high places, showing off their white bellies. .
"Leave half a basket for me," he said loudly, "I haven't cut the white thatch yet!"
Xie Xuechen walked slowly at the back. The poisonous insects, snakes and ants along the way smelled the smell early, and hid away without getting close.
After Lin Zhu handed the basket of sweet fruits to the red sleeves, he suddenly felt relieved. He picked a ripe rose apple with sharp eyes, wiped off the fluffy thorns with his sleeve, and handed it to Xie Xuechen.
"Smell it, is it fragrant?"
Xie Xuechen glanced at him and sniffed for a while.
fragrant.
Fresh and natural, it lacks a bit of the fat and strong aroma of the fruit, but it has a bit of green and comfortable.
Mozun has been enshrined for a hundred years, he was in a better mood when he picked up a peach, but when he opened his mouth to bite, his hand was suddenly empty.
Lin Zhu blatantly took a big bite, and when he ate the peaches, his face didn't blush and his heart skipped a beat: "It's so crispy! It's rare to eat such good peaches!"
The demon who was robbed of food:! !
"Do you want to eat?" Lin Zhu said with a smile: "Oh, I've almost eaten this one, you can pick something else."
Before he finished speaking, the tree next to him suddenly grew to the height of four people, and began to drop peaches crackling.
Lin Zhu:! !
Regardless of whether it was a small fruit or a ripe fruit, they all fell off with a bang bang bang, burying people in it with branches and leaves.
Mozun walked away with a flick of his sleeves: "Heh."
Lin Zhutaozi was drowned before he finished eating, with one hand left, struggling to swim out of the pile of fallen leaves.
"Xie Xuechen—get me a hand!"
Someone goes further and further away.
"I can't breathe, cough cough cough!!"
Then it was completely silent.
Xie Xuechen took a few steps, looked back to see that he hadn't followed, and wondered how mortals could be so weak.
Is it true that someone can be drowned alive by leaves?
The man turned his back and raised his hand, and the man spontaneously parted to the sides like fallen leaves, revealing his dirty and grinning face.
Xie Xuechen squatted down and watched for a while, but didn't intend to help him up.
"Still grab it or not?"
Lin Zhu raised his eyebrows: "It's mine, why don't I eat it?"
"Oh."
The man stood up again, and the leaves rushed up like a rising tide.
"No! Grab! La!"
Lin Zhu got out of it with some difficulty, beeping softly: "Isn't this bullying?"
"It's not bullying." Xie Xuechen said gently: "You owe me ten peaches, and you have to pick them, wash them and give them to me before going down the mountain. This is bullying."
Lin Zhu:! !
Unexpectedly and logically, the first straw basket was already full halfway up the mountain.
The contents include fifteen eggs of unknown creatures, half a basket of sweet and sour fruits of unknown plants, and a whole living bird of unknown origin.
The bird fluttered and wanted to run out, but was held in the hand of the Demon Lord with a click, and its wings were broken directly. It was humiliating to wait for the next fried or braised.
This side has not yet discussed how to eat the big fat bird, and Xie Ming ran over with a wreath on his cigarette butt, holding a four-legged bird in his arms.
"Can we take it down the mountain!"
Xie Xuechen looked at it with a frown: "It doesn't look like a deer."
"Yeah, it's very special!"
"This one is called roe." Lin Zhu subconsciously said, "Its mother won't follow you—"
A big roe deer rushed out roaring, and stepped on the bird in the straw basket with one hoof.
The bird screamed.
"Go back." The man didn't bother to move: "Speed."
"Xie Xuechen!" Fifth Brother said angrily, "You are a villain, do you know that!"
"Is this the time for you to be kind?!"
Su Hongxiu who is still weaving garlands: Wait a minute...
Lin Zhu felt blessed for a moment, and shouted: "There are mice!"
"Where is it!" Jie Mingyan had already flown into the sky: "Kill it!"
The little deer suddenly fell to the ground, turned his head and ran wildly after his mother and disappeared.
Xie Mingyan came to his senses: "Lin Zhu!! You actually!!!"
Xie Xuechen laughed wildly from behind.
Su Hongxiu sat on the boulders in the stream and weaved garlands, while Lin Zhu was stepping on the water barefoot with his shoes dangling.
Xie Xuechen thought for a while, and tapped the dog's tail grass with his fingertips.
A clump of big dogtail grass half a person's height gathered together, imitating the appearance of a grass basket on the ground, and tied them together.
One clump of grass was not enough, so the nearby bushes were uprooted, and the roots and soil were weaved into the basket together, with a few small light yellow chrysanthemums mixed on the edge.
After weaving the straw baskets, Lin Zhu ran over with his shoes in his hands: "Brother Xuechen! Why don't you soak your feet, it's very cool!"
Mozun coldly pointed at the straw basket.
Stop talking nonsense and praise me quickly.
Only now did Lin Zhu see the new basket, and he wowed happily, putting down his shoes and going to get it.
Unexpectedly, I didn't move my hands.
"what?"
He felt something was wrong, but the basket was obviously made of straw, and there was nothing in it.
Xie Xuechen was puzzled by watching from a distance, wondering what happened to him.
Lin Zhu gathered all his strength, kicked his feet on the ground and went to move the basket again, and got up suddenly like pulling a carrot.
——The six-foot-long grass roots are attached to the bottom of the basket, and all the roots have been pulled out.
The scholar tuned it and saw the roots growing on the basket, he couldn't help laughing: "Brother, your basket grows from the ground, can it bear fruit?"
The latter threw the fish at him with a dark face.
From the bottom of the mountain to the top of the mountain, climb up and look into the distance for a while and then go down another road. Along the way, I met many villagers who picked mushrooms and caught hares.
There are two baskets when going up the mountain, and four baskets when going down the mountain.
The roe was let go, but a certain brother did not give up and caught a pair of deer. The two deer each carried two baskets and walked down the mountain.
Xie Xuechen looked good, so he picked two twigs and put bits on them.
Lin Zhu said kindly, "Give the deer a bit, are you still human?"
The deer also didn't expect that he would be treated as a mule in this life. After wearing a complete set of saddles, he was still a fool, his back was heavy, and he didn't dare to fart while being pressed down by the fairy energy and devil energy.
Su Hongxiu had already put red, green and green country garlands on all the staff, and now she touched the deerskin and said, "If you want to eat meat after you go down the mountain, leave the skin for me to make a scarf."
The buck farted in fright.
"What to eat, let's use it as a mount." Xie Xuechen said casually: "You can ride it to the exam, and it is enough for you to walk."
Lin Zhu didn't expect that he still remembered himself, so he smiled in surprise: "Good idea, if I really want to ride a deer into the capital, I won't even get the limelight without taking the exam."

Kang Cunzhen has always felt sorry for his little nephew whose parents died early, and he did his best to come here to help clean up the house once in a while, and prepared tea and food early for them to come back.
It wasn't until dusk fell that a familiar figure appeared in the distance.
She walked quickly to the fence to look around, but was a little unsure if it was them.
The four people are right, why are they still following the two ends—what are the two ends?horse?deer?
"Aunt!" Xie Mingyan said affectionately, "Look at this!"
"Hey!" Kang Cunzhen responded, and went out to meet the children, and finally saw two deer and four baskets clearly in the night.
She was a little dazed, thinking that she had misremembered the things before she left the house, and after careful review, she felt something was wrong, so she dared not reach out to touch the deer at this moment.
"This...this is?"
"I picked it up on the mountain." Lin Zhu said succinctly: "The basket is picked up, and the deer is also picked up."
Su Hongxiu felt that this explanation was completely fine: "Yes! I picked it up!"
Kang Cunzhen stared blankly for a long time, he couldn't laugh or cry and said: "Okay, I'm hungry, let's eat!"
For dinner, there is stewed chicken soup, as well as two meat and three vegetables, which can be said to be full of tricks.
Of course these foods are not as good as the delicacies in the Fairy Pavilion of the Demon Palace, but people feel that everything is delicious when they are hungry.
Even rough-faced steamed buns and fried cabbage taste even more appetizing than the delicate cooking of Yangzhou master chefs.
How can such a simple steamed bun taste so delicious?
It is also good to be soft, and it is also good to have a springy tooth, so you can enjoy it no matter how you eat it.
They drank tea and chatted freely in the night light, and even had a laugh with Kang Cunzhen from time to time.
Everyone was sweating and hot from eating, but they didn't even think about casting a spell.
Sweat and sweat!Eat as much as you can!very good!
After the meal was finished, Xie Xuechen went to wash the dishes silently, and Kang Cunzhen began to look through the things in the four baskets.
There are 32 yellow, white, gray and green eggs, and four fat birds.
There is a basket of fresh fish and shrimp, and a basket of fresh fruit and sweet grass.
Plus a whole pheasant leg plus tail hair.
……
Kang Cunzhen was still counting at the beginning, but gradually his brows turned into question marks.
"The first question." She brought a basket containing fresh shrimp and fish in front of them: "Why can this straw basket be filled with water without leaking? What kind of straw did you use to weave it?"
"That's right," Su Hongxiu said abruptly, "I am a Taoist priest! I'll be fine after just reciting a mantra!"
"Oh, it's a pleasure to meet you," Kang Cunzhen reacted, and said politely: "What's the matter with this chicken leg?"
None of the other parts can be seen, except for the tail and legs.
"That's it," Lin Zhu whispered: "On the way back, Gong Xi Fa Cai came to find us, and then they were hungry..."
When he was feeding the dog, he took a careful look.
A dog has three rows of teeth, with six rows of teeth up and down.
Don't talk about eating chicken, you don't have to worry about eating tigers.
"Well, I can believe it," Kang Cunzhen said softly, "Where's the dog? Didn't he send you back?"
"They didn't eat enough...it seems that they went to catch wild boars to eat."
"..."
Lin Zhu patted the second aunt's shoulder encouragingly.
"You don't come back very often, and you may not be able to figure out some things for the time being, but you will get familiar with it after a few more visits."
Fresh peaches and young grasses are packed into the cellar together with fish and shrimp.
Everyone went back to sleep one after another at night, and Kang Cunzhen stayed in the kitchen, washing the small fruits one by one and making wine for them.
When Lin Zhu woke up at night, he found that she was still busy, and felt very embarrassed all of a sudden.
He has a shy personality, and often knows that his aunt is good to him, and wants to stop her from working so hard, but it seems that nothing can be said.
He has been taking care of his aunt for so many years, so he can go to Beijing to catch up for the exam one after another.
Now seeing her busy in the night, he stood there feeling hot in his heart.
It's nice to have family.
Kang Cunzhen wiped the sweat from his forehead, and found that Lin Zhu was standing not far away, and said hello: "Come here and take the jar to the cellar, and find a place to put it away."
Lin Zhu complied obediently, and took away the whole jar of fruit wine with some difficulty.
He moved slowly and came back after a long time.
Kang Cunzhen had wiped the kitchen spotless, and the porcelain bowls were shining brightly under the oil lamp.
"I'm going back tomorrow, and it will be a long time before I come back to see you." She helped him wipe off the sweat from his forehead, let go of his usual toughness, and said in a much gentler voice: "You used to live alone in the wind and rain, and my aunt is very happy." Distressed."
"Now, although these friends around you may all come from special backgrounds, Auntie can tell that they are all kind-hearted people who treat you very well."
Lin Zhu realized that she didn't tell the truth, so he hummed nervously, the ending sound was still green like a child's.
Kang Cunzhen looked at him and smiled in the dim oil lamp, and said carefully: "But my aunt also has something to teach you."
"No matter how powerful a friend is, he still has the heart of a mortal."
"They love you well, and you should love them well, don't you?"
"I will," Lin Zhu said with a smile, "Don't worry."
Early the next morning, Aunt Kang took a hitchhiker back to Linzhen, and Lin Zhu stuffed a basket of bird eggs before she left.
"I don't know what eggs are," the scholar scratched his head and said, "But eating more eggs is nutritious, and you should also remember to take care of your health!"
"Okay, see you next time."
Seeing that the carriages and horses were about to move, she remembered something, and hurriedly said: "Xiao Zhu! The weather is going to be hot!"
"If your cellar is convenient, stock up on ice as soon as possible, and don't wait until the market price increases!"
"Okay! I remember it!"
The four of them stood outside the courtyard and watched their aunt's figure gradually go away, before Su Hongxiu turned to look at him.
"Why stock up on ice?"
"It's hot, let's cool down." Lin Zhu took a broom to sweep the dust from the door, and said with a smile, "You don't know, even hens won't lay eggs when it's hot, otherwise why is it called bitter summer?"
"Everyone is suffering, and the crops will die without water. If the water in the ditch is all dry, we have to drive the car to the pond to fetch water."
Su Hongxiu let out an oh, and communicated with the other two people with her eyes behind him.
- Ordinary people still have to worry about this?
Xie Xuechen shook his head.
-have no idea.
Jie Mingyan tries to express doubts.
- so shall we stock up on ice for hens?
Xie Xuechen nodded.
- Stock up, stock up on sheep and pigs too.
Su Hongxiu hesitated.
- I turn well water into ice for him?
Xie Xuechen shook his head.
- maybe not?What kind of ice do they need?
Xie Mingyan also shook his head.
- Of course not, what if the well is drained, we have to go to the lake to get it.
Su Hongxiu's eyes lit up.
- Shall we take him to Changbai Mountain?Or go to Kunlun Mountains?
Xie Mingyan was thoughtful.
- Good idea, bring a few roe deer to help carry it...
Lin Zhu swept the floor to the back and felt silent. When he turned around, he saw three people winking.
"Are you... making faces?"
Xie Xuechen was expressionless: "Sweep your floor."
"??"
Lin Zhu felt as if he had missed a point, but he couldn't explain clearly.
He left the three of them where they were and continued to wink, and went to feed the pigs and chickens by himself.
Then he slapped his head violently.
"Brother Xuechen!"
"What day is today!"
Mozun said indifferently, "How would I know?"
Su Hongxiu hurriedly took out the universal scroll from her sleeve: "Let me see! Today is the second day of May."
"The second day of May!!" Lin Zhu said in a trembling voice, "Are you going to the Wu family to have a feast today!!"
Su Hongxiu: "What is Wujia??"
Jie Mingyan: "What is a feast??"
Xie Xuechen: "..."
He kept the invitation all the time, and only when he thought about it today did he summon his sleeves, and it was true after comparing the time.
"Let's go, it's not yet noon, the guests are probably entering the venue."
"We didn't even have breakfast," Xie Mingyan said, clutching his sleeves, "It seems impolite to go to someone else's house for breakfast..."
"But isn't the banquet all invited from the beginning to the end?" Su Hongxiu said to herself, "It's probably similar to the Peach Banquet. The Peach Banquet in the sky starts with dancing and singing in the morning!"
Xie Xuechen attracted another cloud, and Lin Zhu followed quickly with the invitation.
"Wait, don't go, we haven't brought him a gift yet!"
"It's so troublesome." Xie Xuechen frowned and said, "Give him those two deer?"
Lin Zhu thought it was okay, and was about to go down to the cloud to fetch the deer, but Xie Mingyan held out his hand to stop him: "You also said that the Wu family is a well-known big family in this area."
"It's a rich family. Are two wild deer a decent gift?" The fifth beauty brother said seriously, "Isn't this a disgrace to our Xie family! It's the first time a mortal invites us to a feast, isn't it reasonable!"
Lin Zhu: "No...you wait..."
Su Hongxiu was thoughtful: "Let's fly to Quzhou City to buy him gifts first? What does he like? Shall I embroider wild ducks for him?"
"Trouble." Mozun said coldly: "Go or not, or I'll go back to my room to sleep."
"Wait!!" Su Hongxiu was quick to wit, and brought the two deer over, and made a trick in his hand: "Turn white, hurry up!"
The two wild deer, a male and a female, were originally covered in yellow grass and could blend into the forest, but they couldn't follow their words for a while, and they became extremely white from head to toe.
Promoted directly from an ordinary miscellaneous deer to a fairy-like white deer.
Lin Zhu hesitated to speak.
Even a white rabbit is hard to find these days, and the Orion has to send it to the capital if it catches it.
They took two white deer and sent them to the Wu family at once, will it cause trouble...
"Say you're not good at aesthetics," Xie Mingyan sighed, "Since it's such a good day to get married, can it be pale and pale?"
With a flick of his cloud sleeves, the whole body of the two deer became fiery red, and their tricks shone like rubies.
Xie Xuechen covered his face with his hands.
It's hopeless, let's send the two of you there.
He sighed, and then stretched out his hand to change the deer back to its original color, signaling them to return to the pen to graze obediently.
"Listen to me, just send the wild boar head with molars to Fa Cai, whether you want it or not."
Gouzi was sleeping soundly holding the pig's head, but raised his head vigilantly when he heard the sound.
Su Hongxiu went over to lick the wild boar's two tusks, and said with a smile, "This will do."
She stroked her fingertips, and the pig's teeth immediately stretched and lengthened like ivory, and the color was clean and moist, quite good.
The four nodded in satisfaction, and left on the cloud with their pig teeth.
The author says:
I'm sorry, sorry, I was sick two days ago, and I was practicing battery cars in my dreams, and I probably couldn't write any sand sculptures.
Finally updated today!Continue tomorrow! !Woooooo Hope you all enjoy watching, dear!
Said that he was going to dig the fifth brother's grave, Xie Xuechen still looked back at the rice seedlings in the field before leaving, always feeling that something was not aligned.
Lin Zhu raised his hand and put the big straw hat on top of his head.
Xie Xuechen looked sideways at him:?
"Aren't you going to sunbathe?"
"Do not."
He felt that the straw hat, which was too wide, was unnecessary, so he continued to wear it, and walked back with Lin Zhu.
After the four of them met and were about to go up the mountain, Second Aunt Kang specially handed over a big straw basket for Lin Zhu to carry on his back.
Su Hongxiu hesitated and said, "This is..."
"Carry it on your back! If you save it, there are too many things to bring back." Second Aunt Kang hung the rag on the hemp rope, turned her head and said, "Go, go, have fun."
Lin Zhu walked out with a straw basket on his back, and when he turned around, he saw the three people behind him all with blank faces.
"Let's go." He laughed: "I'll take you to the mountain to eat fruit."
Su Hongxiu has only lived here for a few days, and she feels barren everywhere.
She originally stayed here to find out the secrets of the Demon Lord and the traitorous immortal. Seeing that she was going to play in a strange place, she subconsciously clenched her sword tightly.
It's time to go up the mountain.
Looking from a distance, the mountains and mountains are full of verdant green. When you approach the entrance of the trail and look up the mountain, it is as black as the blood vessels of a monster.
Lin Zhu was familiar with the mountain road and deliberately walked ahead, leading them up the stream, picking a bunch of wild grapes in the forest and washing them.
"Try it."
Su Hongxiu carefully ate one: "It's so sweet!! How can there be grapes at this time!!"
"Mountain grapes are nothing more than grapes, they don't grow on vines, they hang on the treetops."
Xie Mingyan heard the sound and looked into the distance. There were green and gray trees from near to far, but there was nothing.
He reached out and pressed his fingertips on Lin Zhu's forehead, and looked at it from the same angle, and suddenly many colors appeared in his vision.
The purple ones are raspberries, the wild loquats are hanging high, the white thatch by the stream can be used to make herbal tea, and the green branches in the grass can be wrung out to steam rice...
Wherever people see mountains in their field of vision, they are all looking at the back kitchen.
Lin Zhu suddenly had his mind read again, and he was not angry, Zhi Leng stood beside him for a while, and suddenly said: "Ah, there are bird eggs there."
Xie Mingyan let go of his hands, and said strangely: "You really haven't practiced?"
Su Hongxiu was still concentrating on eating grapes: "Ah, where did the chat end?"
Xie Xuechen hadn't said a word since he went up the mountain. He observed quietly for a while, thinking whether he was worth speaking.
There are waterfalls in the mountains, which are suitable for meditation and practice. He has traversed the mountains several times, and he has already clearly understood the deep and shallow caves, birds and animals.
At this moment, seeing Lin Zhu jumping over to look for the bird's eggs on the branch, suddenly there is a feeling of pity for a falcon watching a chipmunk.
Is that all you can see, mortals?
As long as you have the slightest spiritual consciousness...
He didn't speak indifferently until he saw Su Hongxiu holding a straw basket and Lin Zhu bent over and carefully put all five big bird eggs in.
"Less than half a mile to the west, there is a wild honey nest."
The scholar's ears perked up: "Really?!"
"Further to the northwest, there are three pheasant nests, the grass snake has just laid eggs, and there are mandarin fish in the river."
He spoke casually, and the lighter his tone, the more powerful he seemed.
"The fruit in the apricot grove is unripe and astringent, but the sour vines and golden cherry seeds nearby have grown well."
Lin Zhu's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he boasted vigorously: "As expected of Brother Xuechen! You have only been to the mountain a few times and you have explored everything?"
Xie Xuechen snorted lightly: "There's no need to probe."
At this time, Fifth Brother said quietly: "You usually use your spiritual sense to do this?"
"..." Mozun looked at Jie Mingyan, and said for a long time: "I remembered, I haven't dug your grave yet."
"??"
When killing intent was everywhere, Su Hongxiu yelled: "What are you waiting for! Let's go buy some goods!"
Xie Mingyan hesitated slightly: "Can the food on the mountain be delicious?"
Before he finished speaking, two grapes were stuffed into his mouth.
"Try it yourself!"
Jie Ming chewed and chewed: "I have opened my spiritual consciousness! Let's go! There are golden cherry seeds to eat in front of me!"
Yixian was full of energy and rushed forward without a hatchet, and directly relied on the sword and fire spell to clear the way, which meant a harvest festival.
Lin Zhu walked behind and before he had time to say anything, he saw wild jujubes and white peaches flying from the mid-air into the grass basket in clusters and branches in the east mountain of the West Mountain, and the fat fish in the stream fluttered and jumped to the high places, showing off their white bellies. .
"Leave half a basket for me," he said loudly, "I haven't cut the white thatch yet!"
Xie Xuechen walked slowly at the back. The poisonous insects, snakes and ants along the way smelled the smell early, and hid away without getting close.

Lin Zhu:! !
Regardless of whether it was a small fruit or a ripe fruit, they all fell off with a bang bang bang, burying people in it with branches and leaves.
Mozun walked away with a flick of his sleeves: "Heh."
Lin Zhutaozi was drowned before he finished eating, with one hand left, struggling to swim out of the pile of fallen leaves.
"Xie Xuechen—get me a hand!"
Someone goes further and further away.
"I can't breathe, cough cough cough!!"
Then it was completely silent.
Xie Xuechen took a few steps, looked back to see that he hadn't followed, and wondered how mortals could be so weak.
Is it true that someone can be drowned alive by leaves?
The man turned his back and raised his hand, and the man spontaneously parted to the sides like fallen leaves, revealing his dirty and grinning face.
Xie Xuechen squatted down and watched for a while, but didn't intend to help him up.
"Still grab it or not?"
Lin Zhu raised his eyebrows: "It's mine, why don't I eat it?"
"Oh."
The man stood up again, and the leaves rushed up like a rising tide.
"No! Grab! La!"
Lin Zhu got out of it with some difficulty, beeping softly: "Isn't this bullying?"
"It's not bullying." Xie Xuechen said gently: "You owe me ten peaches, and you have to pick them, wash them and give them to me before going down the mountain. This is bullying."
Lin Zhu:! !
Unexpectedly and logically, the first straw basket was already full halfway up the mountain.
The contents include fifteen eggs of unknown creatures, half a basket of sweet and sour fruits of unknown plants, and a whole living bird of unknown origin.
The bird fluttered and wanted to run out, but was held in the hand of the Demon Lord with a click, and its wings were broken directly. It was humiliating to wait for the next fried or braised.
This side has not yet discussed how to eat the big fat bird, and Xie Ming ran over with a wreath on his cigarette butt, holding a four-legged bird in his arms.
"Can we take it down the mountain!"
Xie Xuechen looked at it with a frown: "It doesn't look like a deer."
"Yeah, it's very special!"
"This one is called roe." Lin Zhu subconsciously said, "Its mother won't follow you—"
A big roe deer rushed out roaring, and stepped on the bird in the straw basket with one hoof.
The bird screamed.
"Go back." The man didn't bother to move: "Speed."
"Xie Xuechen!" Fifth Brother said angrily, "You are a villain, do you know that!"
"Is this the time for you to be kind?!"
Su Hongxiu who is still weaving garlands: Wait a minute...
Lin Zhu felt blessed for a moment, and shouted: "There are mice!"
"Where is it!" Jie Mingyan had already flown into the sky: "Kill it!"
The little deer suddenly fell to the ground, turned his head and ran wildly after his mother and disappeared.
Xie Mingyan came to his senses: "Lin Zhu!! You actually!!!"
Xie Xuechen laughed wildly from behind.
Su Hongxiu sat on the boulders in the stream and weaved garlands, while Lin Zhu was stepping on the water barefoot with his shoes dangling.
Xie Xuechen thought for a while, and tapped the dog's tail grass with his fingertips.
A clump of big dogtail grass half a person's height gathered together, imitating the appearance of a grass basket on the ground, and tied them together.
One clump of grass was not enough, so the nearby bushes were uprooted, and the roots and soil were weaved into the basket together, with a few small light yellow chrysanthemums mixed on the edge.
After weaving the straw baskets, Lin Zhu ran over with his shoes in his hands: "Brother Xuechen! Why don't you soak your feet, it's very cool!"
Mozun coldly pointed at the straw basket.
Stop talking nonsense and praise me quickly.
Only now did Lin Zhu see the new basket, and he wowed happily, putting down his shoes and going to get it.
Unexpectedly, I didn't move my hands.
"what?"
He felt something was wrong, but the basket was obviously made of straw, and there was nothing in it.
Xie Xuechen was puzzled by watching from a distance, wondering what happened to him.
Lin Zhu gathered all his strength, kicked his feet on the ground and went to move the basket again, and got up suddenly like pulling a carrot.
——The six-foot-long grass roots are attached to the bottom of the basket, and all the roots have been pulled out.
The scholar tuned it and saw the roots growing on the basket, he couldn't help laughing: "Brother, your basket grows from the ground, can it bear fruit?"
The latter threw the fish at him with a dark face.
From the bottom of the mountain to the top of the mountain, climb up and look into the distance for a while and then go down another road. Along the way, I met many villagers who picked mushrooms and caught hares.
There are two baskets when going up the mountain, and four baskets when going down the mountain.
The roe was let go, but a certain brother did not give up and caught a pair of deer. The two deer each carried two baskets and walked down the mountain.
Xie Xuechen looked good, so he picked two twigs and put bits on them.
Lin Zhu said kindly, "Give the deer a bit, are you still human?"
The deer also didn't expect that he would be treated as a mule in this life. After wearing a complete set of saddles, he was still a fool, his back was heavy, and he didn't dare to fart while being pressed down by the fairy energy and devil energy.
Su Hongxiu had already put red, green and green country garlands on all the staff, and now she touched the deerskin and said, "If you want to eat meat after you go down the mountain, leave the skin for me to make a scarf."
The buck farted in fright.
"What to eat, let's use it as a mount." Xie Xuechen said casually: "You can ride it to the exam, and it is enough for you to walk."
Lin Zhu didn't expect that he still remembered himself, so he smiled in surprise: "Good idea, if I really want to ride a deer into the capital, I won't even get the limelight without taking the exam."
-2-
Kang Cunzhen has always felt sorry for his little nephew whose parents died early, and he did his best to come here to help clean up the house once in a while, and prepared tea and food early for them to come back.
It wasn't until dusk fell that a familiar figure appeared in the distance.
She walked quickly to the fence to look around, but was a little unsure if it was them.
The four people are right, why are they still following the two ends—what are the two ends?horse?deer?
"Aunt!" Xie Mingyan said affectionately, "Look at this!"
"Hey!" Kang Cunzhen responded, and went out to meet the children, and finally saw two deer and four baskets clearly in the night.
She was a little dazed, thinking that she had misremembered the things before she left the house, and after careful review, she felt something was wrong, so she dared not reach out to touch the deer at this moment.
"This...this is?"
"I picked it up on the mountain." Lin Zhu said succinctly: "The basket is picked up, and the deer is also picked up."
Su Hongxiu felt that this explanation was completely fine: "Yes! I picked it up!"
Kang Cunzhen stared blankly for a long time, he couldn't laugh or cry and said: "Okay, I'm hungry, let's eat!"
For dinner, there is stewed chicken soup, as well as two meat and three vegetables, which can be said to be full of tricks.
Of course these foods are not as good as the delicacies in the Fairy Pavilion of the Demon Palace, but people feel that everything is delicious when they are hungry.
Even rough-faced steamed buns and fried cabbage taste even more appetizing than the delicate cooking of Yangzhou master chefs.
How can such a simple steamed bun taste so delicious?
It is also good to be soft, and it is also good to have a springy tooth, so you can enjoy it no matter how you eat it.
They drank tea and chatted freely in the night light, and even had a laugh with Kang Cunzhen from time to time.
Everyone was sweating and hot from eating, but they didn't even think about casting a spell.
Sweat and sweat!Eat as much as you can!very good!
After the meal was finished, Xie Xuechen went to wash the dishes silently, and Kang Cunzhen began to look through the things in the four baskets.
There are 32 yellow, white, gray and green eggs, and four fat birds.
There is a basket of fresh fish and shrimp, and a basket of fresh fruit and sweet grass.
Plus a whole pheasant leg plus tail hair.
……
Kang Cunzhen was still counting at the beginning, but gradually his brows turned into question marks.
"The first question." She brought a basket containing fresh shrimp and fish in front of them: "Why can this straw basket be filled with water without leaking? What kind of straw did you use to weave it?"
"That's right," Su Hongxiu said abruptly, "I am a Taoist priest! I'll be fine after just reciting a mantra!"
"Oh, it's a pleasure to meet you," Kang Cunzhen reacted, and said politely: "What's the matter with this chicken leg?"
None of the other parts can be seen, except for the tail and legs.
"That's it," Lin Zhu whispered: "On the way back, Gong Xi Fa Cai came to find us, and then they were hungry..."
When he was feeding the dog, he took a careful look.
A dog has three rows of teeth, with six rows of teeth up and down.
Don't talk about eating chicken, you don't have to worry about eating tigers.
"Well, I can believe it," Kang Cunzhen said softly, "Where's the dog? Didn't he send you back?"
"They didn't eat enough...it seems that they went to catch wild boars to eat."
"..."
Lin Zhu patted the second aunt's shoulder encouragingly.
"You don't come back very often, and you may not be able to figure out some things for the time being, but you will get familiar with it after a few more visits."
Fresh peaches and young grasses are packed into the cellar together with fish and shrimp.
Everyone went back to sleep one after another at night, and Kang Cunzhen stayed in the kitchen, washing the small fruits one by one and making wine for them.
When Lin Zhu woke up at night, he found that she was still busy, and felt very embarrassed all of a sudden.
He has a shy personality, and often knows that his aunt is good to him, and wants to stop her from working so hard, but it seems that nothing can be said.
He has been taking care of his aunt for so many years, so he can go to Beijing to catch up for the exam one after another.
Now seeing her busy in the night, he stood there feeling hot in his heart.
It's nice to have family.
Kang Cunzhen wiped the sweat from his forehead, and found that Lin Zhu was standing not far away, and said hello: "Come here and take the jar to the cellar, and find a place to put it away."
Lin Zhu complied obediently, and took away the whole jar of fruit wine with some difficulty.
He moved slowly and came back after a long time.
Kang Cunzhen had wiped the kitchen spotless, and the porcelain bowls were shining brightly under the oil lamp.
"I'm going back tomorrow, and it will be a long time before I come back to see you." She helped him wipe off the sweat from his forehead, let go of his usual toughness, and said in a much gentler voice: "You used to live alone in the wind and rain, and my aunt is very happy." Distressed."
"Now, although these friends around you may all come from special backgrounds, Auntie can tell that they are all kind-hearted people who treat you very well."
Lin Zhu realized that she didn't tell the truth, so he hummed nervously, the ending sound was still green like a child's.
Kang Cunzhen looked at him and smiled in the dim oil lamp, and said carefully: "But my aunt also has something to teach you."
"No matter how powerful a friend is, he still has the heart of a mortal."
"They love you well, and you should love them well, don't you?"
"I will," Lin Zhu said with a smile, "Don't worry."
Early the next morning, Aunt Kang took a hitchhiker back to Linzhen, and Lin Zhu stuffed a basket of bird eggs before she left.
"I don't know what eggs are," the scholar scratched his head and said, "But eating more eggs is nutritious, and you should also remember to take care of your health!"
"Okay, see you next time."
Seeing that the carriages and horses were about to move, she remembered something, and hurriedly said: "Xiao Zhu! The weather is going to be hot!"
"If your cellar is convenient, stock up on ice as soon as possible, and don't wait until the market price increases!"
"Okay! I remember it!"
The four of them stood outside the courtyard and watched their aunt's figure gradually go away, before Su Hongxiu turned to look at him.
"Why stock up on ice?"
"It's hot, let's cool down." Lin Zhu took a broom to sweep the dust from the door, and said with a smile, "You don't know, even hens won't lay eggs when it's hot, otherwise why is it called bitter summer?"
"Everyone is suffering, and the crops will die without water. If the water in the ditch is all dry, we have to drive the car to the pond to fetch water."
Su Hongxiu let out an oh, and communicated with the other two people with her eyes behind him.
- Ordinary people still have to worry about this?
Xie Xuechen shook his head.
-have no idea.
Jie Mingyan tries to express doubts.
- so shall we stock up on ice for hens?
Xie Xuechen nodded.
- Stock up, stock up on sheep and pigs too.
Su Hongxiu hesitated.
- I turn well water into ice for him?
Xie Xuechen shook his head.
- maybe not?What kind of ice do they need?
Xie Mingyan also shook his head.
- Of course not, what if the well is drained, we have to go to the lake to get it.
Su Hongxiu's eyes lit up.
- Shall we take him to Changbai Mountain?Or go to Kunlun Mountains?
Xie Mingyan was thoughtful.
- Good idea, bring a few roe deer to help carry it...
Lin Zhu swept the floor to the back and felt silent. When he turned around, he saw three people winking.
"Are you... making faces?"
Xie Xuechen was expressionless: "Sweep your floor."
"??"
Lin Zhu felt as if he had missed a point, but he couldn't explain clearly.
He left the three of them where they were and continued to wink, and went to feed the pigs and chickens by himself.
Then he slapped his head violently.
"Brother Xuechen!"
"What day is today!"
Mozun said indifferently, "How would I know?"
Su Hongxiu hurriedly took out the universal scroll from her sleeve: "Let me see! Today is the second day of May."
"The second day of May!!" Lin Zhu said in a trembling voice, "Are you going to the Wu family to have a feast today!!"
Su Hongxiu: "What is Wujia??"
Jie Mingyan: "What is a feast??"
Xie Xuechen: "..."
He kept the invitation all the time, and only when he thought about it today did he summon his sleeves, and it was true after comparing the time.
"Let's go, it's not yet noon, the guests are probably entering the venue."
"We didn't even have breakfast," Xie Mingyan said, clutching his sleeves, "It seems impolite to go to someone else's house for breakfast..."
"But isn't the banquet all invited from the beginning to the end?" Su Hongxiu said to herself, "It's probably similar to the Peach Banquet. The Peach Banquet in the sky starts with dancing and singing in the morning!"
Xie Xuechen attracted another cloud, and Lin Zhu followed quickly with the invitation.
"Wait, don't go, we haven't brought him a gift yet!"
"It's so troublesome." Xie Xuechen frowned and said, "Give him those two deer?"
Lin Zhu thought it was okay, and was about to go down to the cloud to fetch the deer, but Xie Mingyan held out his hand to stop him: "You also said that the Wu family is a well-known big family in this area."
"It's a rich family. Are two wild deer a decent gift?" The fifth beauty brother said seriously, "Isn't this a disgrace to our Xie family! It's the first time a mortal invites us to a feast, isn't it reasonable!"
Lin Zhu: "No...you wait..."
Su Hongxiu was thoughtful: "Let's fly to Quzhou City to buy him gifts first? What does he like? Shall I embroider wild ducks for him?"
"Trouble." Mozun said coldly: "Go or not, or I'll go back to my room to sleep."
"Wait!!" Su Hongxiu was quick to wit, and brought the two deer over, and made a trick in his hand: "Turn white, hurry up!"
The two wild deer, a male and a female, were originally covered in yellow grass and could blend into the forest, but they couldn't follow their words for a while, and they became extremely white from head to toe.
Promoted directly from an ordinary miscellaneous deer to a fairy-like white deer.
Lin Zhu hesitated to speak.
Even a white rabbit is hard to find these days, and the Orion has to send it to the capital if it catches it.
They took two white deer and sent them to the Wu family at once, will it cause trouble...
"Say you're not good at aesthetics," Xie Mingyan sighed, "Since it's such a good day to get married, can it be pale and pale?"
With a flick of his cloud sleeves, the whole body of the two deer became fiery red, and their tricks shone like rubies.
Xie Xuechen covered his face with his hands.
It's hopeless, let's send the two of you there.
He sighed, and then stretched out his hand to change the deer back to its original color, signaling them to return to the pen to graze obediently.
"Listen to me, just send the wild boar head with molars to Fa Cai, whether you want it or not."
Gouzi was sleeping soundly holding the pig's head, but raised his head vigilantly when he heard the sound.
Su Hongxiu went over to lick the wild boar's two tusks, and said with a smile, "This will do."
She stroked her fingertips, and the pig's teeth immediately stretched and lengthened like ivory, and the color was clean and moist, quite good.
The four nodded in satisfaction, and left on the cloud with their pig teeth.
The author says:
I'm sorry, sorry, I was sick two days ago, and I was practicing battery cars in my dreams, and I probably couldn't write any sand sculptures.
Finally updated today!Continue tomorrow! !Woooooo Hope you all enjoy watching, dear!
