Vivienne was sitting on the small bench she carried with her, her chin resting on her hands, her golden curly hair was swaying on her chest, and her big purple grape-like eyes were looking straight at the road up the mountain.The afterglow of the setting sun fell on the face, like a layer of mist, making the face flushed.

At dusk, the sky is dyed red by the clouds into brilliant colors, and the clouds are like paints smeared in the air, quietly changing their shapes.The road is narrow and tortuous, with thorns on both sides. Small pale yellow flowers are scattered in the green grass, and some small reptiles run past from time to time.When the evening wind blows, the grass and branches shake rustlingly, startling the birds in Kazuki.

Looking at the sky, I couldn't help getting up and pacing back and forth, muttering in a low voice: "The sense of direction is so bad, but you still insist on taking me with you, it's just trying to be brave! It's almost dark, and people don't know where they are. No matter what I say, I am the daughter of the most powerful hunter in the village, how could I not even be able to deal with small animals in the mountains, so I tried to find reasons to leave me behind."

Stamping her feet angrily, she caught a glimpse of a shadowy figure in the grass, and the girl's eyes lit up, "I'm finally back, if you don't come out, I won't wait for you!" When she ran closer to see clearly, she was startled.

The person in front of her was the one she was waiting for!

This man was as strong as a hill, a head taller than the tallest blacksmith in the village.Dressed in poorly crafted fur clothes, the fur is the best material, the sable is famous for its speed in the mountains, it is hard to buy, if you see someone ruining it like this in the market, you will definitely want to cry without tears.The firm chest was exposed, showing a hard bronze color.

There was a sack on his shoulders, the bag was round, wriggling, and made a chirping sound, which was the noise of a pheasant struggling desperately, and a bloody smell rushed up.He held an ax in his hand. The ax was more than one meter high, and he held it like a light weight. There were many gaps on the ax and it was stained with blood.The beard covered half of his face, adding a bit of savage and ferocious beastliness, like a savage coming out of an old forest deep in the mountains.

Vivian has lived in the village for more than ten years, and has never heard of savages on the mountain.Even though he was used to the scenes of his father being killed and slaughtered, he had never met such a bloody person, so he asked anxiously, "Who are you?"

The strong man hissed with a broken gong: "You don't care who we are, whether there is a cottage here, quickly lead the way, I have no patience, if you are in a bad mood, it will be enough for you." Impatiently swung the ax , A shadow floated above the girl's head.

Vivienne was terrified, and instinctively thought that this person came with bad intentions, but she didn't dare to disobey their actions, so she stood there in a daze and didn't know what to do.Suddenly regretted following me willfully.

The man didn't know how to be sympathetic, and said sharply, "You bastard, I told you to lead the way! I'm a civilized person, but you want to force me to swear."

Vivienne finally made up her mind not to take them to the village.Fortunately, there is still a distance from the village here, so as long as you take them deep into the mountains and familiarize yourself with the path, it will not be a problem to turn around a few times and get rid of them.Estimating the time, the person who has been waiting for a long time should also come back. It would be even better if he met on the way.

She straightened her back: "My house is so far away from here, I can't even reach it after dark!"

The strong man obviously didn't believe her words, he rushed up with anger, his eyes widened, and he swung his ax to chop down.

"stop."

The voice was light and leisurely, deep and distant, like the low part knocked off the strings.

Naturally, Vivienne didn't pay attention to how beautiful this voice was. She didn't expect this person to be so bad-tempered that he would kill people easily. She was so frightened that she hugged her head tightly and waited for the ax to fall, but she saw a touch of black approaching her. "It's okay, don't be afraid."

Hearing this, Vivian raised her head curiously, and a young man in his twenties was in front of him.

This person doesn't seem to be in good health, his face is unhealthily pale, and the light color of his lips can be ignored.That murderous man didn't dare to utter a word in front of him, he was really capable.But he was really good-looking, his whole face was as if carefully carved by a sculptor, the facial features were three-dimensional and deep, and the contours of his face were as sharp as a knife.The thick black in the pupils is like thick ink that cannot be melted away, and the eyes and eyebrows also carry heavy emotions, making it difficult to see clearly.

The young man turned around again and said in a deep voice: "Remember what I said, follow me and restrain your temper, or leave immediately."

"It won't happen next time, Boss." Hearing this, the strong man obediently stood aside, his fierce look disappeared, and his eyes silently looked at the ground.After thinking about it, he was not convinced, and retorted, "I used to be respectful to us everywhere, but this little girl dared to talk nonsense to me, I can't swallow this tone!"

"Swallow it for me if you can't swallow it." The young man raised his eyebrows slightly, his expression remained unchanged, his eyes were terrifyingly sharp, like an unfathomable vortex. "Sorry." In a firm tone.

The burly man had a gloomy expression on his face. He felt that this was a blow to his self-esteem. After hesitating a few steps, he said in a low voice: "It was my fault just now, so don't take it to heart."

"It's okay, I'm not hurt." Vivienne waved her hand without hesitation. She has the simplicity and simplicity of the people in the mountains. When she saw the stern voice of the former person, she felt that it was bad in her bones. The view, the previous nervousness of fright dissipated.

The young man's face softened, "We saw that it was getting dark, and we wanted to find a place to spend the night. We saw smoke rising from here in the distance, so we came all the way."

Vivian blushed, knowing how unreliable a lie she had just told. "That man looks too bad, so I lied to him. However, if you are just guests from afar, it is of course no problem to stay for one night. There have been no outsiders in the village for a long time, and I will be happy to see you!"

Vivienne led the way in front, and the two behind followed unhurriedly.

Vivienne wanted to turn her head several times to talk to strange young people, ask the outside world, everything is fine.Every time I turned my head, I always found that this man was absent-minded, looking at the mountains and trees in a trance.But when encountering familiar people, they greeted happily, and young people also greeted them cooperatively, but remained silent at other times.

Weird.

Vivienne thought depressingly.

The village is in a slightly gentle valley, on the next hill, you can see the smoke rising from the chimneys of the simple thatched houses, and scattered houses are scattered.A glacier on the high mountain flows out of a small stream that hits the village passing by. The clear stream reflects the setting sun and rippling with sparkling waves. Occasionally, fish and shrimp jump out of the water lightly.

The surrounding terrain is complex, the mountains are continuous, and there are few traces of people.The villagers depend on hunting for a living. In addition, they also plant a lot of fruit trees. If necessary, they have to travel more than ten days to a nearby town to change their daily necessities.

Just like Xanadu.

After entering the village, it is not far from home.In the distance, a woman similar to Vivienne came forward, and when she saw the two people following her, she frowned in dissatisfaction: "You brought some messy people over again." Allah stepped aside, "I've told you many times that the outside world is not as simple as you think. Look at what kind of people they are, with their faces full of flesh and blood."

"Grandma, you think too much. They just want to spend the night." Vivian pouted dissatisfiedly, walked into the room, and called, "Abba, there are guests at home!"

The mother and daughter whispered aside, and the young man had excellent ears and could hear clearly. He motioned for Nuo Qi to come forward, took down the big bag behind his back, and opened the mouth of the bag. "We don't have any money on us, and these rights are used as overnight expenses, which is annoying." People in the mountains and countryside live a self-sufficient life, and giving coins is better than giving some actual items.

The woman looked at the fainted roe deer, which had no scars on the outside. She didn't know what method was used to make it pass out completely. Another little wild boar had its neck cut off by a sharp weapon. The blade was extremely fast and the technique was precise. , There are also a few pheasants running and jumping as soon as they come out of the bag.

If it is just an overnight fee, it is too generous.

Glancing at them, he said, "Okay then, but our house only has one long spare bed, and the two of you will definitely not be able to fit in. Why don't you squeeze each other, or choose another house?"

"You can go to my little brother's house, his house is quite spacious." Vivienne jumped out from behind her and put her arms around the woman's neck affectionately, "Auntie, you promised!"

A middle-aged man came out of the room, carrying a butcher's knife on his back, carrying a wild boar to the kitchen, and said with a smile: "Of course the guests brought back by my princess must be treated well."

"You two are bothersome." The woman turned and entered the room, and said back, "I haven't followed up yet. By the way, since there are guests at home, Vivienne, please invite them over for dinner."

"Thank you very much." The young man was not annoyed, he thanked lightly, and entered the house with the woman.

Vivienne patted his forehead: "I haven't seen him come back after waiting for a long time, and I don't know if he is home now." Then he ran away in a bounce, this time he didn't go to the village entrance, and went straight to the home of her little brother .

The woman shook her head helplessly, caught a glimpse of the two, and said coldly: "Dinner will not be early, you have to wait." She wiped her wet hands on the apron and went to the kitchen without looking back. In the courtyard, I didn't even ask to go back and sit down.

"It's okay." The young man said kindly.

On the other hand, Nuo Qi finally couldn't hold back, and yelled, "This woman's eyes really grow on the top of her head, I can't bear to see it anymore, how about I solve it?" He made a movement of severing her neck with a sharp knife.

The young man glanced at Nuo Qi with a half-smile: "You have a lot of things to do, I'll go and see if I can help you. If you're in a hurry, follow me there. If you're not interested, just stay where you are and wait. Don't worry too much. thing."

"Boss, what are you doing! In the past, let alone the kitchen, delicious food was served right in front of us, and we picked and ate it. If we didn't like a table, we would overturn it, and the subordinates would not dare to say a word of nonsense. Let's be careful. It's good now, the poor place doesn't go to the village or back, and even the dinner is our prey, it's really annoying." Nuoqi snorted.

"Regret coming with me? You can stay there, I don't force it at all."

"How could it be? I said earlier that wherever the boss is, I will be there. You taught me all my abilities now, and I'm not as shameless as those people. I just can't see them being rude to you, boss."

"I'm not a god, how could I get courtesy everywhere." The young man smiled lightly.

Vivienne rushed out of the house and ran all the way to the home of the little brother she called, "Grandpa, is little brother back yet?" Her pace was too fast, and she couldn't stop when she saw the people in front of her.The boy who bumped into him quickly turned around, hugged the girl's waist, waited for her to stand still, and said with a smile: "The food at home is not cooked yet, did the smell lure you here?"

The young man was not very handsome, he was seventeen or eighteen years old, he was dressed in brown coarse linen, with the sleeves rolled up, revealing a section of white arm, and the feet were ordinary straw sandals.His eyes are bright, and when he smiles, he will bend into a beautiful crescent shape, which only shows his distinctive clean and hearty temperament.

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Vivian left the boy's chest in embarrassment, as if a deer was bumping in her heart. "Let's talk about me, what kind of treasure is it that makes you spend a whole day on the mountain?"

"It took a long time." Shaking the bamboo basket in his hand, "I caught a lot of drumming birds, which is not bad." The drumming birds are delicious, and they are the best ingredients for soup. They are very nourishing, but The eccentric drumming bird is small and nimble, and lives in a place with lush trees. It is hidden by green feathers, and if you don't pay attention, you will lose the clues to find it.

"Did you get lost on the mountain because of these little things?" Vivienne said indifferently without looking at it.

"You know it again!" The boy laughed and walked home. "I caught six or seven drumming birds. Take some back. Otherwise, your mother will say that I'm useless again." The words were helpless, but there was no look of disappointment in her eyes.

Vivian laughed: "Even if I bring some back home, you won't be praised by my mother. A few guests came to the house today, which is amazing. Just for the toll, there are a wild boar, a roe deer, three A pheasant!"

The young man showed no sign of admiration, and still gave an exaggerated exclamation, and then commented unceremoniously: "A bunch of idiots."

The busy old man in the house heard the noise of playing outside, and when he went out, he saw two people walking side by side in the courtyard. The setting sun stretched the shadows of the two slenderly, like cut flowers that were tightly pressed together.Can't help laughing: "Vivienne is here too?"

Vivian immediately went over to grab his arm, and said coquettishly, "Grandpa, did you hear that? He bullied me all the time."

Grandpa chuckled: "Don't be afraid, just bully him back, he doesn't dare to do anything to you."

Vivian turned around and made a face before saying, "It's Grandma who invited you to dinner."

"That's just right, I also want to meet those idiots, they really sent good things to your house after being hit by a stone." The young man said leisurely.

"Luke, you are too much!"

This young man is naturally Lin Huai.

After wandering around the mainland for several years, he is well-known for his unstoppable mental power attacks and his superb medical skills for rejuvenation.

However, although Clyde has been recuperated by the purple scale fruit and has lived in the space for a long time, he can't stop the erosion of time in the end, and the passing time is always the most ruthless.Lin Huai couldn't bear to let the old man who had worked hard all his life live alone in the space, so he chose a place with beautiful mountains and rivers to settle down.I have nothing to do, chatting with the old people in the village, fishing to relax, and there are many children who are escaping, bringing a lot of laughter.

But he doesn't belong here after all, he can't live forever, and he always has to leave.
