Jinyang Mountain.
This mountain is remote and the scenery is average. Very few people come here on weekdays.
However, there is a mountain temple on the mountain. It is said that it was quite effective in the early years. In recent years, I have not heard of any noble people who have returned to their hometowns in glorious clothes to come here to fulfill their wishes.
I guess it's not working, and I'm afraid everything will be cut off.
Chen Zhuo stood at the foot of the mountain, clasping his nose and looking up at the top of the mountain.
Jinyang Mountain is not high. Even ordinary people, not to mention monks, can climb to the top of the mountain in a long time.
After Chen Zhuo finished pressing his nose, he patted Chu Yi's shoulder casually, shook his head and sighed: "Look, this is a bastard..."
Before Chen Zhuo finished speaking, he suddenly let out an ouch.
He reached out his hand and wiped his face.
The hands were smooth and greasy, filled with milky white unknown substances.
Chen Zhuo waved his hand, and several birds flew overhead. For some unknown reason, their cries were extremely unpleasant, even hoarse than those of crows.
But at this time, it sounded like he was laughing at Chen Zhuo.
Chen Zhuo waved his hands and cursed at his mother. He wanted to rub it on Chu Yi again, but Chu Yi quickly took a few steps back.
Chen Zhuo retracted his hand angrily. Chu Yi was about to walk up the mountain when Chen Zhuo suddenly stopped him.
"No need to go up the mountain."
"ah?"
Chen Zhuo shook his head, with a hint of complexity in his eyes, "Luo Yi was deceived. There is no one he wants to save in Jinyang Mountain."
Based on his cultivation, he dare not say that he can see all the disturbances in the entire mountain, but he knows very well whether there are any living people in this mountain.
This is an empty mountain, empty of people.
Luo Yi was deceived.
——
Fuxian Town.
Luo Yi walked in front and led the way, followed by Mo Li and Murong Guxue.
Murong Guxue occasionally turned her head to look at Luo Yi a few times, and then moved her eyes down to look at Mo Li a few times.
Her eyes were full of curiosity, how could such a little dwarf tear apart the void?
Bravo.
When Murong Guxue raised her head, she saw the steaming steamed bun shop not far ahead, and her eyes lit up.
"Yeah! There's something delicious!"
Murong Guxue ran over in a few bounds, staring at the meat buns in the steamer with her big eyes, her nose twitching a few times, and her face was full of joy.
"Smells~ It smells so good!"
The shop owner is a middle-aged uncle who is slightly chubby. He said with a smile: "Little girl, buy a few to try? My buns are famous throughout Fuxian Town."
Murong Guxue turned to look at Luo Yi, who was stunned, "No money?"
"No money!" Murong Guxue said confidently.
A few copper coins suddenly appeared in Luo Yi's hand. To be honest, since the realm has become higher and higher, such things have been used less and less.
There are hundreds or even thousands of Yuanling coins at every turn, and the money is not money.
Three copper coins, five meat buns.
Murong Guxue held it in both hands with a satisfied smile.
She also handed one to the young Mo Li, who was a little scared and didn't dare to ask for it.
She handed it to Luo Yi again, and Luo Yi took one, but didn't eat it and looked at it quietly for a long time.
Murong Guxue ate happily, taking three bites each, without hesitation at all.
Cheeks bulging.
Luo Yi suddenly said: "When I was young, my family was poor. Every time my mother and I passed by here, I would pretend not to care and turned my head. But in fact, every time I peeked quietly, my mother would see it."
Murong Guxue listened quietly, and even the speed of eating steamed buns slowed down.
The three of them walked past the rouge shop again. Luo Yi finally took a bite of the meat buns. He turned to look at the rouge shop and suddenly smiled.
"Later, when I grew up a little, every time I walked this street with my mother, I could see that my mother would secretly take a look at this rouge shop every time, but I never saw her leave. Been in there."
"I haven't even gotten close to take a look."
Murong Guxue took a bite of the bun skin and turned her head to look at the rouge shop.
Of course, the products sold there are all well-deserved "rouge powder".
But for women in small towns, this is already as good as it gets.
Just like that, Luo Yi walked in front, and the whole journey was filled with memories.
Memories are all about old people and old things.
Luo Yi said a lot, as if telling Murong Guxue and young Mo Li.
But actually, I was telling myself.
The three of them walked to a street corner and turned into an alley.
The alley is called Lotus Lane. It is said that it was named by a knowledgeable official in the town in the early years.
It is said that he hopes that the young people who come out of Lotus Lane can emerge from the mud without being stained.
The implication is good and the silt is true.
This alley was filled with chicken and duck excrement. The original bluestone floor had long since cracked, exposing the ground below in some places.
Every time it winds or rains, this alley becomes restless.
Especially during the rainy season, the alleys are full of sludge. When it rains heavily, it will flow into the yard, which is very troublesome.
Some bluestone slabs that have been cracked and loosened for a long time will suddenly rise up if you accidentally step on one side, and then splash countless muddy water.
Very annoying.
But it is such an alley that Luo Yi has been away for more than ten years.
Luo Yi suddenly remembered something. Instead of turning into this alley, he walked straight into another alley.
At that time, his brother-in-law refused to go to Beijing with him. Later, it was said that he was going on a long trip, but Luo Yi didn't know where exactly he went.
When I come back this time, I can just go and have a look.
My brother-in-law's name was Yan Yubai. Although he was a bachelor, many girls in the neighborhood looked at him shyly.
Luo Yi back then didn't understand why these people blushed when they saw their uncle?
Now I understand.
Luo Yi took the two of them to the door of Yan Yubai's house, and Luo Yi sighed.
There should be no one at home.
The old wooden door was unlocked, and the iron handle on it was rusty.
Luo Yi opened the door, and sure enough, the house was empty.
In the small courtyard, all the decorations are the same as before.
but……
Only one gun is missing.
The gun had been placed in the corner of the small courtyard by Yan Yubai, placed very casually, staying quietly with the hoes and brooms.
Luo Yi sat for a while at the table in the small courtyard. Once upon a time, he had a drink with his uncle here.
But now, things have changed and people have changed.
Luo Yi sighed secretly, wondering where his uncle went back then and where he is now?
The burning clouds in the sky have gradually faded, and night slowly enveloped Fuxian Town.
Luo Yi stood up and let out a breath. The injuries in his body were not serious and he could be cured by adjusting his breath overnight.
tomorrow……
Depart for the capital.
Calculating the time, Chen Zhuo should have arrived at Jinyang Mountain, right?
Luo Tianchen said that Chu Mengli would go to Jinyang Mountain, but he had to believe Luo Tianchen's words, but he couldn't believe them all.
Thinking quietly all the way, Luo Yi unknowingly took Murong Guxue back to the old house where he lived with his mother.
At this moment, Luo Yi suddenly held An Ling with his backhand, and his face suddenly darkened!
Inside the house, the lights are on.
There is actually someone in this old house.
