Chapter 119: Peach Blossom Spring
I put the solar power bank in the yard. From the beginning, I would definitely study hard and become really boring here. I could only review the mysterious technique, and then take out a stand-alone game to start passing the level.
Knock, knock,
There was a knock outside the door, and I guessed that it was the girl named Xiao Cui who came to deliver me food.
The food here is self-sufficient, truly natural green, safe and pollution-free.
I jumped out of the bed and rushed to the yard to open the door. I saw an old man in his seventies or eighties standing in front of me: "Girl Ningshe! Come and have a meal."
I don’t know how long I will stay here now. At least I must be polite to the villagers here and leave a good impression on people. It is easier to ask for help when something happens.
I took the basket with both hands: "Grandma, thank you. Please help me to bring a message to Miss Xiao Cui, thank you for the meal she cooks."
Grandma looked at me happily and said, "I am Xiao Cui."
Ah...well.
I thought Xiao Cui was a young girl. Both Master and Uncle were people who practiced mysterious techniques, and some of them were capable of keeping their age, so I thought it was normal for an old man in his seventies or eighties to be a girl.
"Thank you, grandma, have you eaten? If not, go together."
Grandma shook her head: "I have to go home to cook for my grandson. You don't have to wash after eating. I'll come over to clean up later."
"Okay." Although I agreed, I just washed a few dishes, and I still don't bother others.
The first day I arrived at the Peach Blossom Land, I spent it in such a daze.
I slept beautifully, but there was still no Bai Jiuyan in my dream. Maybe it was the fairyland on earth that was so relieved that I was already delivering food to Grandma Xiao Cui when I woke up.
Grandma Xiao Cui doesn't like to talk, she leaves after delivering her meal, and doesn't say much. Although I am so lively, she is neither salty nor light.
This way, I couldn't get hot. The most common thing I said every day was: Thank you, grandma, should I eat together? Thank you, grandma, goodbye grandma.
The most common thing I heard was: I don’t need to wash the bowls, I will clean them up after eating.
My magic power has improved rapidly in the past few days of staying here. I began to thank my master for letting me come here. This decision was right. Unfortunately, even though I could already change things from a distance, the fox pie on my chest still didn't react much, which made me very upset and at a loss.
The master said that the most powerful magician should be able to illusions out of thin air, and it is easiest to achieve when changing objects from a distance. Then, then diligently, you will be able to retrieve objects from a distance, and finally you will be illusions from a distance.
Today is the second week since I came here. After practicing the basic skills, I reviewed the documents again, and took out the mysterious book that Bai Jiuyan took me to read for a chapter. Today's task was completed.
Next, I plan to take a look at Taohuayuan Village. It’s a pity that I haven’t enjoyed the beautiful scenery here after I arrived here.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, I gave the basket to my grandmother Xiao Cui's house. The village in the village was still working in the farmland, and from time to time I found someone sitting on the ridge of the field to eat dumplings. Maybe it was the day when I came, they saw me walking with my uncle, and everyone in the village liked to say hello to me.
I saw a few kind aunts sitting around chatting, and followed him over and said, "Auntie, what are you talking about?"
"Ah, it's Ningshe! Come and sit down. We are talking about the strange things that have happened recently."
My head started to jump up, which was not a good sign. Since I encountered those things that were confused and unexplained by science, I felt uneasy when I heard strange things and talked about them. Instinctively, I felt less than more.
I pretended to be absent-mindedly wiping my leather shoes.
Even without my participation, those aunts were still having a lot of chats.
"You all know that Shanwa's father is dead, right?"
"What's wrong? Shanwa's father is so hard that the two families rely on him to work alone. Isn't this tired? Alas, it's also pitiful."
"What's so tired, it's not so tired. I heard that the unclean things in his house ran out."
I tried to curl up, and now the crowd seemed very small. But I still listened to what they said word by word.
Another woman covered her mouth and shouted: "Has he gone to the ancestral hall?"
"Your voice is a little bit light! Just forget it if you say it yourself, don't implicate us."
"I don't know. Alas..."
Another woman interrupted: "Don't be nervous! This has been hundreds of years, and my ancestors have lived here for generations, and those mysterious things have long disappeared. Besides, Master Qingxuan is here! With him guarding our village, there will be no trouble."
"But Master Qingxuan hasn't seen it for several days."
The aunt who told the strange things suddenly asked me: "Girl, where has Master Qingxuan been going these days? But, is he sick? Why don't we all go and see him? He is a living god in our village, so he can't have anything to do."
"Ah?" I remembered that Uncle Master said he was leaving long ago, but now there is no trace of people, so I was very helpless.
The women all stared at me, which made me panic. I quickly pretended not to listen to them: "What's wrong, Auntie? What are you talking about?"
"Ask you, where is Master Qingxuan?"
My sixth sense told me that I must not tell the truth, so I blurted out decisively: "Uncle Master is in seclusion, isn't this asking me to protect the Dharma?"
"Oh." They all sighed when they heard me say that the uncle was still there.
I was planning: Or I would find a chance to run away, and they mean that something strange happened in the village. If nothing unexpected happens, uncle may have run away.
Not a family, you won’t enter the whole family!
The master ran away, and the uncle ran away, where is me?
Naturally, you have to follow the example.
After chatting with my aunt, my first reaction was to go back to pack up. Regardless of whether he started school or not, I would find a place to stay half a month in advance. It would be better than staying in this place.
But when I returned to the house, my suitcase had been opened. I searched all the things inside, and the money and the things my master gave me were there, and the books and money were still there. The only thing I lacked was my ID card and admission letter.
Isn't this killing me?
I searched everywhere, searching carefully one room at a time, and even I picked up a few rat holes, but I still couldn't find my stuff.
I had to find the ID before I could leave. I had no choice but to search around again, but I still couldn't.
Grandma Xiao Cui came to deliver the meal on time. I asked her but she said she didn't see it, so I couldn't ask any more, so I could only find it myself.
The next day, I found the village chief in the village and asked what to do, and I returned home very late.
When I returned to the house, I was surprised to find that my ID card and admission letter were lying neatly in my suitcase, but the money and a peach wood sword were gone.
