Meng Li made the bed with her back to Lu Mu, feeling that he was motionless behind her.
Then he came over and got busy with her.
Meng Li pointed at the gap between the two wooden boards: "When we sleep, don't cross this line. Also, you should still cover yourself with your original quilt."
Lu Mu didn't say anything, which was considered acquiescence.
The bed was made, the kerosene lamp was blown out, and they both lay down on it.
Meng Li was sleeping outside, so she still had to be vigilant and get out of bed if there was any situation. This was not to guard against Lu Mu, she believed in him.
Their food has improved in recent days, but they are afraid of being remembered.
There was one more person lying next to him, and he could hear the man's even and steady breathing, and he could also feel the faint warmth coming from the side.
Lu Mu lay down obediently, covered with his quilt, and did not cross the 38th line.
Meng Li got used to it for a while and closed her eyes.
Have a good night's sleep.
When he woke up in the morning, Lu Mu had already taken his buffalo to plow the fields for the villagers. The quilt next to him was folded neatly, and the morning light filtered in from the window, casting a warm light on the room.
Meng Li combed her hair in the mirror. She looked at the face in the mirror. She had eaten well these days and her muscles and bones were active. This face looked plumper and more lively, and it was no longer skinny after pinching it.
And it's not pathologically white. With the red light of normal people's blood, whiteness is an advantage. In addition, the original owner's eyes are big and black, and the bridge of his nose is small and straight. Meng Li can't help but look at it more. Two eyes.
This skin was not picked up in vain.
Lu Mu plowed the good land and drove the cattle home.
Today he took a detour, passing by a low hill, tying his cattle on the road, and then walked uphill for a while until he reached a secluded location.
There was a person waiting there, respectfully.
"Seeing the mark left by the young master, someone reported that the subordinates were coming. What are the young master's orders?"
Summoning different people has different signs.
Lu Mu handed him the four medicinal herbs: "This stuff will be useful for your lung disease. Take it to the doctor and take it with other medicines."
Qingsong was moved and took it with both hands: "Thank you, sir."
As he finished speaking, he couldn't help coughing twice, and a sickly flush appeared on his face.
"Go back." Lu Mu turned and left.
"Master." Qingsong said.
"What else?"
Qingsong hesitated to speak, but finally said: "Young master wants to get a wife, why not wait until you go back later to get married? Marry now, I'm afraid it will be a trouble in the future."
During this time, he felt a headache whenever he thought about it.
"It happened unexpectedly at that time. My adoptive father raised me and I couldn't just ignore him."
"Have you ever thought about what you will do in the future? If the time comes, the village girl will hold on to you tightly."
Lu Mu said: "She can't."
"That's because she has never seen glory and wealth——"
"Okay, I have my own sense of discretion in this matter." Lu Mu's tone was a little cooler. He didn't like others to interfere in his private affairs.
Qingsong sighed: "Yes."
Lu Mu was driving the bullock cart home, and Meng Yao had just made breakfast.
Each person has a bowl of preserved egg and lean meat porridge. The preserved eggs are given by the villagers, and sprinkled with a little chopped green onion. You can drink it without stopping.
"Second brother, on which mountain did you find the herb you found last time?" Meng Li asked after finishing the last sip of soup.
Meng Ning said in surprise: "Sister, do you want to go? Oh, it's better not to think about it. I accidentally got lost and broke into that forest. I was beaten by ghosts several times before I came out. It's not a good place. .”
Meng Yao was still frightened: "Second brother spent two days wandering around inside, which made us anxious to death. We searched all over the nearby mountains and called the villagers to form a team and went deep into the mountains, but we still couldn't find him."
"Second brother, just tell me. Lu Mu and I will go together. If we find one or two more plants, our family can build the most basic stone and tile house."
"No." Meng Wu said resolutely: "There are often wild beasts in the mountains. That forest is beyond the mountains. It is a primitive ancient forest. There is always a mysterious mist and miasma. Several villagers died in it. Your second brother is very lucky. , I stumbled out and escaped, but luckily I didn’t encounter a wild beast. Sister, brother knows that you are capable, but you can’t risk your life.”
"Yes, sister, I went into the mountains to try my luck. I wanted to hunt down a muntjac and exchange money on the street. I got lost and entered that ancient forest. I breathed in the miasma and was already unconscious. Fortunately, I know some medicinal herbs and pulled them out. It took two raw chews to stabilize my mind. I hit the wall five or six times in succession. The last time I collapsed on the ground from exhaustion and even wanted to give up. Thinking of you waiting for me at home, I took another breath and finally managed to survive. Break out.”
Meng Ning said, with a look of fear on his face, and even shuddered: "Don't go to that place, don't go. It took a lot of effort for you to wake up. I don't want anything to happen to you at home."
"Well, I'll just ask." Meng Li saw that each family member was worried to death, so she stopped scaring them.
She asked about this because she discovered that her space had a material-finding function, similar to installing a radar system.
In other words, if she wants something in reality, she only needs to tell the tracking system its name, and the system will specify the location. If she doesn't know what it is called, describe the characteristics, and the system will also give options within a ten-mile radius.
When the space is upgraded, this range will be expanded.
"Then second brother, tell me what the herbs you found look like. Look, my little sister and I found so many herbs yesterday. It would be easy to identify them if we saw them on the nearby hills."
Of course Meng Ning was willing to tell her: "The leaves are wide and purple, and the root system is a bit like ginseng."
Meng Li knew that this was a herbal medicine recorded in ancient Chinese medicine books that was very useful in treating sudden epilepsy. It was called Purpurea. It had long been extinct and disappeared in the long river of history.
When he said that, Meng Li turned on the tracking function, and the result showed that there was no one within ten miles.
Such a good treasure, if there were any nearby, it would have been picked up by others, and it would not be her turn to pick it up.
Meng Li pulled Lu Mu into the room.
Lu Mu lowered his eyes and looked at Meng Li's hand on his arm.
Meng Li felt a little uncomfortable, coughed and let go.
Looking outside, the eldest brother Meng Wu had already left for the town, but the second brother was still in the yard. He was knocking off some boards that could be used on the old bed.
Meng Li closed the door.
"Lu Mu, let me ask you, do you know where that mountain is?"
"Um."
"you've been to?"
Lu Mu was silent.
Meng Li winked at him mysteriously: "Take me there."
"Aren't you afraid of danger? That place is not accessible to ordinary people. Your second brother is very lucky."
"What does that saying mean? Wealth can be found in danger. Besides, you also have some experience. We husband and wife are of the same mind, and we can make a difference."
Although she had made a hundred designs for Qiu Shui Pavilion, it would take at least seven or eight days for each hundred to come out, and each body would have to have at least three or five pieces. She had to see if there were any others. The path to money.
