Is the little hero back today? [Entertainment]
Chapter 5 The Strange Man at the Foot of the Mountain
After Liu Yongnian went down the mountain, he walked only two miles, and saw a memorial archway standing on the road, with the words "Xanadu" written on it, but he really didn't see the true meaning of it, it only made people confused for a while and then forgot.
Although Liu Yongnian has never seen other archways, he also feels that this archway is not quite right.
It is said in the book that there are only two forms of archway, one is that the columns are higher than the ridge of the building, and the other is that the ridge is higher than the columns.
But this archway has no ridge, only two blank columns supporting a plaque, and there are no couplets on the left and right.
Liu Yongnian only regarded it as the customs of this small town, how can the book cover all corners of the world, after all, the paper is shallow, and he knows to practice, so he doesn't pursue this strange archway anymore.
In the past, there were more and more memorial archways. There were women pounding clothes by the river, some catching willow flowers under the boy tree, and some peasants carrying seedlings.
Liu Yongnian felt that all this was extremely novel, he had never seen it before, and it was very interesting whether it was people or events.
But it's not good for him to act like he doesn't know anything, otherwise he will be regarded as a bumpkin by others, so he pretends to be serious and enters the town.
This place is said to be a small town, but Liu Yongnian thinks it is actually a bigger village. There are no pavilions, terraces or attics, just a few thatched huts. Your house is my house, and the yard is connected. noisy.
Liu Yongnian thought that a foreigner like himself would be surprised by the villagers when he came here, so he went up to talk to him, so that he could ask for some news and where there were job opportunities.
The conversation he imagined was naturally there, but it was different from what he expected. The fact is that the woman making clothes raised her head and shouted: "Xiao Nian is here! Are you here to buy rice? Why are you alone today?" , why didn't your master come with you?"
The boys under the tree also swarmed in front of Liu Yongnian, chattering and shouting for Brother Xiaonian.
Surrounded by so many children, Liu Yongnian was at a loss and didn't know which one to answer first. Gradually, his face turned red and he felt embarrassed, and the children were so soft and cute, his heart was about to melt.
"Brother Xiaonian, why is your face so red, are you sick?" A doll with a stick in the sky asked concerned.
Hearing his words, the other dolls also chirped and asked what was wrong with Liu Yongnian, if he was sick, and why his face was so red when he was not sick, and even dragged their brother Xiaonian to see the doctor.
Even though Liu Yongnian had a big question in his mind, he couldn't say anything else at this moment, he could only reply stiffly: "I feel a little cold, it's not a big deal, it will be fine in two days."
The women and children here seem to be very familiar with Liu Yongnian, smiling at him everywhere, and even inviting him to eat at home, and some people stuffed him with some snacks such as dried sweet potatoes, and they still say good boy.
Liu Yongnian was so kind, he had to take it and stuff it into his mouth. The dried sweet potato was so sweet, it was really delicious. He showed a big smile to the person who gave him the dried sweet potato.
But after eating and eating, the doubts in my heart cannot be eliminated.
In fact, in Liu Yongnian's memory, he has never really gone down the mountain. He has always been on the mountain to read books, practice martial arts, catch fish and catch birds.
In my life, I only have one acquaintance like Master, and I have never seen anyone visit on the mountain. After all, the mountain is a lonely place to live in seclusion.
He wouldn't be surprised if these villagers only knew his master, after all, the master would go down the mountain every month to buy grain.
But being so familiar with him, and there are so many people like this, this really makes Liu Yongnian feel a kind of fear, is there something wrong with his memory?
Just as he was wondering, Liu Yongnian heard a woman's voice: "You guys, stop pestering Xiaonian, he is here to deal with business, you go play your own games."
All the boys grimaced in various ways, called out to Sister Lin, and dispersed in all directions.
Liu Yongnian looked up and saw a [-]-year-old woman, born gracefully, her hair tied up with a wooden hairpin, and she was dressed in plain green gauze, which looked very elegant.
Liu Yongnian's first thought of her was that this sister Lin didn't look like a villager.
After all, all the workers in the village are dressed in bunts, and only she has loose clothes and sleeves, with beautiful hands and no calluses, and she is not born to have worked.
"Brother Xiaonian, long time no see." The woman greeted Liu Yongnian with a big smile.
As if seeing an old friend for many years, the woman took Liu Yongnian's hand and walked towards the village, talking while walking.
"The last time we met was last year. Your master never took you down the mountain, and even if he went down the mountain, he hurried away. This time, he came to buy rice again. I'll take you there."
Liu Yongnian didn't understand the situation, so he didn't answer, but just listened to Sister Lin.
At the east end of the village is a very short market. On the first and fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year, villagers from ten miles and eight villages trade here, either for money, or for barter. In short, it is very lively.
Now it's just past the fifteenth day, and it's not until the first day of the next month. Naturally, it is very desolate, but the village is not less crowded through the market, and naturally there are people opening various shops.
The so-called Sister Lin took Liu Yongnian to the east of the village, chanting some things that Liu Yongnian sounded confused, most of them were all kinds of things when he was a child, but these were not in Liu Yongnian's memory.
The east end of the village is indeed more prosperous, unlike the common huts and wooden houses in the village, there are several brick houses here, with plaques hanging on them, rice shops, cloth shops, and pawnshops are all available.
Sister Lin pulled him to the door of a cloth shop, and then she said, "No, come in quickly, my father has been waiting for several days."
Just as he was about to step in, Liu Yongnian remembered that he was here to see what he could do to make a living, otherwise the money to buy rice would not fall from the sky.
Besides, he obviously didn't know these people, but these people were so familiar with him.
Liu Yongnian thought of all the strange things that happened after his master left, so he had to be more careful about it.
This time he was a bit smarter, and did not act recklessly.
Liu Yongnian guessed how much older sister Lin would be than himself, but he said like those children: "Sister Lin, this time I didn't come here to buy rice..."
Before he finished speaking, Liu Yongnian heard Lin Yan interrupted: "Hey, I haven't seen you for a few months, but you and I have a relationship. Didn't you call me Yan'er before?"
When Lin Yan heard Liu Yongnian's words, although her tone was mostly teasing, there was also a bit of loneliness on her face.
This is the first time for Liu Yongnian to meet girls outside of the storybook. Lin Yan's teasing made him blush suddenly, and he didn't dare to show his anger, for fear of doing something wrong.
He also felt embarrassed not to answer other people's words, so he unconsciously clasped his fingers, opened his mouth and whispered: "I...I..."
Seeing that Liu Yongnian couldn't make a fart, Lin Yan knew that he had such a shy character, so she didn't care much, and said softly, "Hi, you can call me whatever you want. Why did you come down the mountain?"
Liu Yongnian suppressed the shyness and embarrassment in his heart and replied: "Master went back to his hometown a few days ago and left me half a tael of silver, but I..."
He originally wanted to say that the bandits had robbed him, but somehow the words came to his lips: "But I lost it, so I want to go down the mountain to see if there is any errands that can earn some money, and then I will go back to the mountain." Go buy rice."
"So that's how it is. Those bandits are really hateful. Just now, the eldest sister of the Li family from the village opposite the mountain came to buy rice noodles and said that she was also hijacked by the bandits who suffered thousands of knives. If you think it's a coincidence, she said it was thanks to a young hero." Get him out."
Lin Yan walked around Liu Yongnian worriedly, and saw that he was not seriously injured, so she said with confidence: "It happens that our rice farm is short of a helper. Although the salary is not much, we can manage enough rice every month. Why don't you come here?" Come?"
Liu Yongnian didn't notice the invitation. He was only surprised by Lin Yan's first half of the sentence, and doubts arose in his heart. I really don't know this person, and he didn't mention that he was robbed just now. Where did she get the news?
This elder sister of the Li family is also suspicious, she was robbed in the same place yesterday and today, and she didn't take any precautions.
Liu Yongnian had to wonder what happened to this world?
There have been a lot of strange things recently, and only this Lin Yan seems to be able to say a few words: "Did I just say that I was robbed? Where did you get the news?"
Lin Yan didn't seem to hear Liu Yongnian's question, so she took Liu Yongnian to Mi Zhuang and said, "That's really great. If you want, you can go with me to see Daddy. Your master is also my Daddy's old man." It's a friend, and he watched you grow up, so he will help you a little bit, and he won't treat you badly."
Although Liu Yongnian couldn't figure it out, it would be difficult to understand the true meaning of it for a while. Seeing that there was an errand to do, he stopped thinking about it and followed Lin Yan into the rice farm.
Maybe it was the eldest sister of the Li family who told about his kidnapping. Sister Lin happened to hear it, so she knew about his kidnapping.
Entering the lobby, I saw several boxes and drawers containing all kinds of rice and grain, and a middle-aged man dressed as a non-landlord was settling accounts on the cabinet.
"Daddy, look who's here!" Lin Yan let go of Liu Yongnian's hand, and walked towards that person lightly.
Hearing his daughter's voice, Lin Bo put down the abacus and ledger in his hand, looked up and saw Liu Yongnian standing at the door, so he said happily: "Oh, Xiaonian is finally here, I was worried that you two, master and apprentice, would starve to death on the mountain. Hahahaha, how many deniers of rice do you want today?"
Without waiting for Liu Yongnian to answer, Lin Yan said coquettishly to his father: "Father, his master has returned to his hometown, leaving him pitifully alone, and the only half of his silver was robbed by bandits. What do you say?" Stupid or not."
Lin Bo was startled for a moment, then regained his senses and murmured: "That old man, after 18 years, is finally willing to go back to his hometown."
"I understand what you mean, but your master once said that you can't leave the July Valley for too long and wander outside, so I'm afraid you won't be able to do long-term work."
Lin Bo thought for a moment and then said: "Well, I have always been greedy for your master's wine making skills, but I will not win people's love. I want you to hand over the production method. You go back to the valley to pick some wild materials. If it is brewed into fine wine, I will buy it myself."
Hearing this, Liu Yongnian smiled happily, he will do this!
Liu Yongnian's master has excellent talents in making tea and cooking wine, refining medicine and dancing swords, so he naturally taught them all.
Wild vegetables are everywhere in the mountains, flowers bloom in four seasons, and there are naturally wine-making materials everywhere.
Liu Yongnian was about to agree, but he heard Lin Bo say: "Hold on to promise, if your wine is not well brewed, I won't take it. Come, come."
Lin Bo went to the counter, took out three pieces of silver from the drawer, handed it to Liu Yongnian and said, "Here, this is the deposit, please keep it, now it's late spring, the cherry blossoms on the mountain should be in bloom, then How about brewing a few bottles of cherry blossom wine for me? When the wine is ready, I will give you the remaining seven coins."
Liu Yongnian knew that his family's wine was obtained from mountains and fields, so it was naturally inexhaustible, so he felt that it was not worth the three-dollar deposit, so he declined, "Is this too much? It's all rough wine..."
"Wrong, wrong, wrong! That old immortal's winemaking skills are outstanding, I believe you are not too far behind, now that he is gone, you can rely on your skills to satisfy your hunger. Take it."
Hearing what he said, Liu Yongnian didn't refuse anymore, but he didn't take the money. He scratched his head and smiled, "Well, Uncle Lin, my granary is empty. Can I use this money to exchange some food and vegetables."
"Of course it's fine. Come on, Yanyan, go to the backyard to pick some vegetables for your brother Xiaonian, and then go to the kitchen to wrap some pastries and bacon, and bring them together. I'll pick out the once-japonica rice for him."
Liu Yongnian thanked him repeatedly, causing Lin Bo and Lin Yan to laugh at his birth, which also made his face burn again.
He picked up rice and miscellaneous vegetables, took the remaining dozens of copper coins, thanked him again, and rushed up the mountain.
