He remembered that he had seen a few paintings in the private collection of the old man in the private school at the head of the village, all of which were black and white, and some of them also painted flowers, birds, insects and animals. According to the old man, those things were priceless treasures.Priceless treasure, how expensive is this, just stick it on the door like this? ? ?

As soon as he said this, the benefactor beside him remained silent for a long time.When Mingyi raised his head to look, he saw that his lips were tightly pursed, and his face was terribly pale.

Mingyi looked at him for a while, and for some reason, he always felt that there was a "well" character protruding from the corner of his forehead.

Mingyi was so confused, He Chen was stared at like this for a while, and finally managed to answer Mingyi's question with a word between his teeth: "No ordinary people can enter this house."

Ming Yi nodded with a vague understanding.

The next moment, a sudden change occurred.The door, which was closed just now, suddenly opened without warning at this moment!

There was a "squeak" sound from the door panel, and then, there was a strong wind on the flat ground, and the wind from nowhere whizzed through this place, and blew heavily into the door, almost blowing Mingyi's whole body into the house.

I don't know if it's a problem of light or a psychological effect, but at this moment, the inside of the door is dark, not like a house, but like a giant beast with its mouth wide open.

He Chen stepped up and walked in, Mingyi was stunned for a moment, then obediently moved up to keep up.

He Chen vaguely sensed something, lowered his eyes to look over, and saw that the young man beside him subconsciously reached out and grabbed his sleeve edge.I don't know whether it was because he was afraid of getting dirty or because he was embarrassed, but he only grabbed a small amount of fabric, and the force was very loose.

He Chen squinted his eyes, and his eyes flashed a little irritability for a moment.

Following that thin and small hand, he raised his eyes to see the boy's expression.At this moment, the boy's eyes under the light-colored eyelashes were wide open, looking at the darkness in front of him with some curiosity and some anxiety, like some kind of small animal.

He Chen paused for a moment, raised his eyes, and continued to walk in the door.In the end, he didn't pull the boy's hand away.

After entering the door, there is a large pool facing you, surrounded by corridors on both sides. The corridors on both sides lead to the backyard, and side doors are opened on the left and right.On the other side of the pool is a Zhulou with carved beams and painted buildings. The side facing the pool is full of windows, as if for the convenience of the owner here to enjoy the water from the railing.

In the middle of the pond is an opera stage, which is connected to Zhulou by a winding path, standing quietly in the water.

The plants and trees in the courtyard, the decoration of the building, and the rocks surrounding the pool are all elegant, and the fragrance of money is everywhere.

Mingyi was almost dumbfounded: Is little uncle really so powerful?Even the yard is so big and so beautiful!Mom really didn't lie to me a word!

There are several bright red and golden koi rolling in the pond.Mingyi looked around, then walked over, squatted by the pool and looked in.

Mingyi squatted like this for a while, and seemed to start to mutter something softly in his mouth.When He Chen walked over, he happened to see him staring at the fish in the pond, and swallowed hard.

He Chen: "..."

Then, an extraordinarily large fish suddenly jumped out of the water and rushed straight to Mingyi's face. A clear and clear girl's voice shouted coquettishly: "You child, what should you think about your aunt!"

Mingyi was so startled that he almost fell backwards. He Chen stretched out his hand, put a finger on Mingyi's back lightly, and helped him up.

The young man fell over, and He Chen looked down, only to see that the young man's face was covered with water from the fish's tail, and his light-colored eyelashes were wet and sticky in locks.Mingyi blinked blankly, water dripped down his cheeks, tempting someone to wipe it off for him.

He Chen looked down for a while, then lightly let go of his hands, and let Mingyi stand up straight.

The koi jumped out for a moment and then fell back into the pond. At this moment, the surroundings are extremely quiet, no different from before.The unbelievable things that happened before seemed to be just hallucinations.

"Just now... who, who spoke?" Ming Yi looked around blankly and asked in a daze.

He Chen said calmly, "What do you think?"

Ming Yi scratched his head: "I think I probably heard wrong..."

There seemed to be a faint sneer from somewhere.

Beside the pool grew a red bean tree, tall and luxuriant, with vermilion fruits dotted among the branches and leaves.Mingyi inadvertently raised his head to see it, his eyes lit up instantly, and he quickly looked at it carefully.

He looked at it for a while, and said happily, "This is exactly the same as the one in our yard!"

He Chen didn't respond to his words, but just stared at him for a while, unable to distinguish between emotions and anger.After a while, he reminded: "Something fell."

Mingyi heard the sound and looked down, it turned out that the small burden on his back had slipped to the ground, probably when he just leaned back.

When he saw the bundle, he suddenly remembered something, lowered his head, picked up the small package, and ran up to He Chen to hold it to him: "That's right, that's right! Little uncle, my mother asked me to bring it to you. My mother asked me to bring it to you. Nothing good, but it's quite filling, try it!"

He Chen glanced at him without a word, but finally said nothing.Mingyi stared at him with sparkling eyes, as if looking forward to it, He Chen paused, and still picked the thing away with his fingers.

The small blue cloth bundle was tightly knotted, and when it was untied, a few pieces of earthy color mixed with black spots were exposed, like moldy wall coverings.

A question mark slowly appeared on He Chen's head: "...What is this?"

"This is dry food! It's made by grinding sorghum into flour. You won't be hungry for half a day after eating a piece of it." Mingyi said with a smile.

Seeing that He Chen still didn't move, Mingyi struggled for a while, and then whispered: "Actually, come on, after I came to the capital, I finished eating dry food, and broke a little bit to eat. I'm sorry, little uncle."

He Chen: "...it's okay."

He paused for a while, and finally couldn't help but asked again: "...this thing...is it edible?"

"Yes, yes, it's delicious." Mingyi was a little anxious, and even wanted to reach out and break off a piece to show him, "It's really edible!"

Seeing that he was about to stuff this ghost thing mixed with black dregs into his mouth, He Chen couldn't help reaching out and knocking the thing out of his hand.

After doing this action, he was also taken aback for a moment, and then he and Ming Yi watched the thing fall to the ground.

Mingyi seemed to froze for a moment, and after seeing the object hit the ground, he raised his head in a daze.

He Chen looked at Mingyi's clean and clear light-colored eyes, and felt a little guilty for a moment.

Neither of them spoke for a while.

He Chen looked away, pursed his lips, and said, "Are you hungry?"

Mingyi didn't expect to hear such a sentence, he touched his sagging stomach, his brows and eyes drooped with a little grievance, and he nodded honestly.

After the little uncle mentioned this, he realized that he was really hungry.Since yesterday, the dry food brought by his mother has been eaten up. He was so hungry that he had to carefully break off some dry food brought to his little uncle.Eating just a little bit at a time can last a long time.

But today he hasn't eaten anything yet.

Mingyi was thinking about it, when He Chen's voice suddenly came: "Let's go, I'll take you to eat something. Do you want to eat the Bazhen banquet at Juyi Restaurant?"

Mingyi suddenly raised his head to look at He Chen, only to see He Chen's expression was flat, his eyes lowered, looking at Mingyi, as if he was waiting for his answer.

This time it wasn't his hallucinations, He Chen really spoke.

Juyi Restaurant... Mingyi passed by once in the past two days.It was the biggest restaurant he had ever seen. The golden red decoration outside the building was extremely exquisite, and the tables in the building were full. When passing by, one could smell the aroma of hot food.

At that time, Mingyi had just finished eating his dry food, and he was walking down the street hungry, when there was a faint sound of the crackling of vegetables and meat being put into the oil pan from the building.Then, I don't know if it was Ming Yi's hallucination, he seemed to smell something very fragrant fried.

Although it was very strange, Mingyi felt that it must be the aroma of meat.

He saw a lot of people coming out full of wine and food, all of them had ruddy faces, satisfied expressions, and a layer of oil on their mouths.

At that time, Mingyi swallowed his saliva, and walked away quickly. After walking not far, he couldn't help but unwrapped the small package behind his back, and secretly broke off a little dry food to eat.

Although it was to be brought to my little uncle, he only ate a little bit, just a little bit.

However, if you can eat such a delicious meal, hot and enough to eat, how happy you would be...

Mingyi thought so at the time.

The young man in front of him seemed to be stunned after hearing this, and remained silent for a long time.During this time, He Chen couldn't help but sized him up for a while, frowning slightly.

When he first reached out to save people, he only felt that the boy was thin and small, as if he was a bit malnourished.Looking carefully now, even though he is wrapped in a slightly bloated gray cotton coat, one can see that he is as thin as a lone leaf in the wind, as if it would fall down when blown, his wrists are ridiculously thin, and two bends are faintly exposed at the neck Thin collarbones, shallow and thin chest.

Being so thin, the taste must not be good.

That does not work.He Chen looked at him with dark eyes.

Originally, he just wanted to make up for the young man out of guilt, but now he thought about it again, and felt that it was necessary to nourish him first, so that he could grow some meat before he could eat.

"Don't you like it? Change to another store?" Seeing that he didn't answer for a long time, He Chen asked again.

Ming Yi was immersed in the memories of that day, and his nose seemed to smell such a beautiful fragrance. Hearing He Chen's question, he immediately came back to his senses, nodded obediently, and said, "I like it, I like it!"

He raised his head, his eyes were bright, and he looked at He Chen in disbelief: "Will Uncle take me there?"

He Chen met his gaze and seemed to pause.Then he turned his eyes away lightly and said "hmm".

Mingyi laughed all of a sudden, his brows and eyes crooked, and he looked very surprised and satisfied.

"Little uncle is really kind!!"

He Chen turned around and went out, Ming Yi obediently followed, step by step.

He Chen: "...I'm not your little uncle."

Mingyi raised his face and smiled, "Okay! What little uncle said is right!"

His mother said that the little uncle is a benefactor who will save him, and he must be obedient to what the little uncle says.The little uncle said no, so it must not be.

He Chen: "..."

Forget it.

Anyway, he would soon be speechless again.

After this meal, it's time to send him on his way.
