6. Xanadu

After this warm current traveled all over his body and returned to the top of his head, Liu Qi felt extremely comfortable, and his body was as relaxed as if he had lost more than ten pounds.

Yu Ji's face softened a lot: "Why are you so panicked? ”

Liu Qigang's calm mood was a little excited: "If I find all the things I need in ten years, I can go back, but I am already thirty-one years old at that time, and I won't scare my family when I go back?" And what if someone misses an arm or a leg......

Yu Jiyi waved his hand and said easily: "It's okay, as long as you go back to Zhang Jiao to get the Book of Heaven before he gets the Book of Heaven, the formation will not succeed, and then everything will not happen, and then the old man will go to seize the treasure, and for you, this matter may be as if it never happened." ”

If Yu Ji returns to the point of historical change alone and prevents Zhang Jiao from changing history, of course he will not return to this era, but how many people in the world can experience such a bizarre thing, if they don't leave any memory, then they can't regret it for life, Liu Qi asked very unwillingly: "But can I keep my memory and go back intact?" ”

Yu Jiluo thought for a while: "Well, the old decay can pass on your alchemy method, and a monthly suit can have a miraculous effect on the face." ”

We don't dare to play alchemy, there are a lot of people who eat elixir in history, Liu Qi asked carefully: "Is the immortal Weng relying on the elixir to live a long life?" ”

Yu Ji said with a straight face: "Otherwise, alchemy is not easy, the medicine stones needed are rare, and the longevity of the old decay is the reason why the diligent practitioner transmits the heart method." ”

Liu Qi hurriedly waved his hand in a cold sweat and said: "The search technique is important, the search technique is important, since this alchemy is not easy, forget it, is there no other way?" ”

Yu Ji took a deep look at him, shook his head and walked down the mountain.

Hey, the lesser of two evils, or a small life, Liu Qi hurriedly chased after him......

After walking for more than ten days, the mountain and forest trails are getting steeper and more difficult to walk, but Liu Qi, who used to shout and rest more than ten times a day, was pleasantly surprised to find that he could follow Yu Ji for a whole morning, his physical strength was still very abundant, and he didn't feel how tired, but when he thought that he couldn't bring back such a magical mental method, he felt extremely sorry, and his stomach growled, no matter how magical this mental method was, he couldn't eat it as a meal, and the dry food for the two of them had been eaten yesterday, Liu Qi wanted to hunt Yu Ji again but he had to hurry up, saying that he met the villages and towns on the way to buy the food and clothing he needed.

Approaching the evening, he saw the smoke wafting in the distance, and the hungry Liu Qi rushed over with a cheer.

A small village is located among the green mountains and green waters, the quaint village is quiet and peaceful, and a waterfall can be faintly seen in the mountains behind the village, and the rainbow light is shimmering in the afterglow of the setting sun.

"What a paradise"! Liu Qi, who walked in this small village in the Han Dynasty, was in a good mood, and reveled in the beautiful scenery while telling Yu Ji the allusions of paradise.

There are not many people in the village, and many houses are dilapidated and empty, the two followed the voices along the gravel path to a small courtyard, through the courtyard wall surrounded by sparse branches, a little girl about thirteen or fourteen years old was playing alone, Liu Qi poked his head into put on a smile that he thought was the most kind and harmless: "Little girl, let's spend the night, okay?" ”

The little girl's beautiful big eyes showed a look of horror, and she turned around and ran into the house with a cry of surprise.

The little girl's reaction made Liu Qi want to cry without tears, and turned his head to ask Yu Ji: "Do I look so bad as a good person?" ”

Yu Ji glanced at him helplessly, stepped forward and said loudly: "The two of us are not villains, please come out and see the master!" ”

A thin old man walked out of the middle room tremblingly, and the little girl hid in the room and stared at them nervously with half of her little face.

Yu Ji hurriedly revealed to the old man that he was a monk who traveled with his apprentice, and hoped to spend the night at the old man's home. It seems that the name of Fang Shi is very respected, and seeing Yu Ji's appearance of a fairy wind and bones, the old man's nervous expression disappeared immediately, and he hurriedly opened the courtyard door: "Honorable guest, honorable guest, please hurry." Respectfully welcomed the two into the courtyard.

The old man's house is square, a larger room in the middle, the east, north and west sides of the house are surrounded by low huts, the houses are all wooden pillars and mud walls, the roof is paved with thick thatch, the big house has no door, the east and west are connected, the furnishings in the house are extremely simple, three rattan mats, one large and two small, there is a low table in front of the big seat, the patent leather of the low ones is about to fall off, and the original face can not be seen, there is an oil lamp on the several, two small seats are placed opposite each other in front of the big seat, and there is nothing else in the house.

"Ling'er, go boil some hot water to quench your thirst." The old man instructed the little girl to boil the water, and at the same time welcomed the two into the house, and politely wiped the rattan mat twice with his sleeve and invited the two to sit down.

The old man's surname is Zhang Mingxian, he is fifty-six years old this year, the little girl is his granddaughter named Zhang Ling, who is not yet fourteen years old, this small village is located in Guling County, called Zhang Peng Village.

Zhang Laohan learned that the two of them hadn't eaten yet, so he got up and wanted to go out: "The little old man's family is poor, and there is no wine and meat to entertain the guests. ”

Liu Qiji was not used to the posture of kneeling and sitting, and after listening to the polite words of the two old men for a while, he couldn't sit still, and happened to go fishing with Zhang Laohan.

Liu Qi couldn't be better at hunting and catching fish, picked a wooden stick with a suitable weight from the firewood room, sharpened it neatly with a firewood knife, and pierced seven or eight big fish weighing two or three catties from the stream in less than half an hour, and by the way, washed the gills and internal organs of the fish and tied two strings of straw rope and lifted it back, Zhang Ling had already cheered and ran back to the stove to fill firewood and boil water, and in a short time Liu Qi was already very familiar with her, and the two of them talked and laughed in the stove and stewed the fish soup.

In the Han Dynasty, the cooking method was mainly steaming, the cooking utensils were also very simple, like a large clay pot, called a kettle, and the stove was also very simple to use mud to build a circle, put the pot on the shelf to fill the branches and hay into the gap, there was no window between the stove and no smoke exhaust facilities, Liu Qi's face was like the bottom of the pot, and the fish soup wafted out of the attractive aroma between the two laughing.

Zhang Laohan had already steamed the rice, and picked out two bowls that were still intact for Yu Ji and Liu to use, the bowls were pottery, square, and looked like they were some years old, and the colored stripes on the bowls were almost completely submerged into the dark brown bowl.

The color of the rice grains is different from the rice of his own era, which is so white, and it is very rough, and it tastes a little scratchy, but Liu Qi is very hungry and can't take care of it, and he sweeps away a bowl of brown rice in a few bites, but Zhang Laohan doesn't seem to have the intention of continuing to add rice, and Liu Qi is embarrassed to speak, fortunately, there is a lot of fish and meat, and Liu Qi quickly fills his stomach.

Xiao Zhang Ling also gobbled up his own food, Zhang Laohan and Yu Ji chatted about the situation at home, this Zhang Peng Village was originally prosperous, there were seven or eight hundred people in the village, the villagers were mainly composed of Zhang and Peng, and it was one of the few rich places in Yufu County.

But this Yizhou is not very peaceful, there are bandits and yellow turban thieves everywhere, the village has been plundered many times, and the village is strong and strong several times to resist, but where can the enemy be those bandits and rebels, either dead or disabled, young women have also been robbed a lot, most of the remaining people have gone to the city to hide, only they are disabled old and young who can not travel far.

Zhang Laohan's original family was also wealthy, and he was also a big family in the village, but more than ten years ago the plague epidemic, his wife, daughter and two of his three sons died of illness, so far the family was gradually embarrassed, three years ago he was robbed by bandits, and his fifteen-year-old son was taken away by bandits, and he sold all his family assets and did not return for his son.

Now Zhang Laohan is old and sick, unable to farm, but fortunately, the villagers are simple, always helping each other, and he and his granddaughter are also raising chickens and vegetables in the yard, and their lives can barely be maintained.

was talking about the past, suddenly heard a voice outside the courtyard door, Zhang Laohan got up to look, Liu Qi followed curiously, several small faces were revealed in the gaps of the sparse fence, and saliva flowed out of the elder, it turned out to be the child next door who was attracted by the fragrance of fish soup, Zhang Laohan laughed: "Hurry up and go back to tell Zhier and other families, quickly take the dishes and chopsticks, there are fish to eat tonight!" A group of children cheered and ran away.

After a while, more than a dozen villagers rushed over to help the old and the young, and Liu Qi and Zhang Ling stewed the remaining fish and distributed them to everyone. Zhang Laohan's house is so lively, there are more and more villagers in the courtyard, of course, the fish have already been separated, and the later people are all Yu Ji who is rushing to the fairy wind bones, after a burst of praise and admiration, Zhang Laohan stopped the noisy crowd: "Everyone, it is late, the fairy Weng will get up early tomorrow and hurry, and please go home to let the fairy rest early." ”

All the villagers left one after another, but their faces seemed to be disappointed, Yu Ji had been worried for several days, and he was not interested in talking to the villagers, so he only went back to the house after a few polite sentences, and did not pay attention, Liu Qi felt very strange but was not familiar with the people of this era, so it was difficult to ask more, and the two little girls pestered him to tell stories again, so he had to go into the house.

The last bit of lamp oil in Zhang Laohan's house has also burned out, Liu Qi easily coaxed Zhang Ling, who was addicted to listening to stories, to sleep, but he couldn't fall asleep, thinking back to the experience of just three or four hours of the first stop of his official trip to the Three Kingdoms, Liu Qi felt that it was much easier than he imagined to integrate into this strange world, especially the language barrier that he was most worried about did not exist at all, although his accent and words still seemed special, but it would not take long to fully adapt.

The previous worries and tensions were swept away, and I hope that in the future, I can smoothly find Qi Taiping's technique, get rid of Zhang Jiao's house, have a good time, and then go home......
