Yan Yu looked at a pool in the forest. In the center of the pool, a spring spewed out from the bottom of the pool. The gushing water column stirred the pool like boiling water.
The water column did not break through the water surface, but formed churning splashes on the water surface, which was very beautiful.
The location of this water pool is relatively remote, far away from the artificial roads built by Liusu Mountain, so few people come here, but it does not mean that no one has been here. When Chen Mo came here, he saw the traces left by previous people.
It's just that no one has walked for a long time.
"Chen Mo, could this be the place where the old monk slept in the open?"
Yan Yu thought of that sloppy old monk. People like him lived a life of being used as a bed.
"This is not a suitable place for people to live for a long time."
Chen Mo shook his head.
"Hey, where are you going?" Yan Yu followed Chen Mo.
"Find a place to sleep."
.....
In another village, two miles away from the spring, Chen Mo found a dilapidated house.
"How come there is a house here?" Yan Yu said in confusion as he looked at the small wooden house that seemed to be about to collapse at any time.
"Someone lived here in a cottage before."
"What about others?"
"Either left or died, maybe his body is in this house." Chen Mo said calmly.
"What?!" Yan Yu was about to go forward to investigate. When something was said, he immediately stepped back and said quickly. "Let's leave here. It's not good to disturb others' rest."
Chen Mo walked up.
The dilapidated wooden house is on the top of a small mound. The trees around the wooden house are much smaller than those further out, indicating that the place was previously reclaimed by the original owner of the house, and new trees grew after it was abandoned.
"Chen Mo, why have you always been against me in the past two days? I will ignore you when you are like this." Yan Yu did not follow. He was not afraid of dying, he was afraid of someone who would die for a long time without anyone noticing.
dead.
Chen Mo pushed open the crumbling door, and the dust inside came to his nose. After dispersing it with his hands, he could see clearly what was inside. It was empty and almost nothing.
"There's no one inside." After saying this, Chen Mo walked into the house.
The house is not very big, it is similar to the house he lived in before in Black Tiger Mountain, just a little smaller, but it doesn't matter, as long as it can provide shelter from the wind and rain. Thinking of shelter from the wind and rain, Chen Mo raised his head and glanced at the roof.
It seems that this leaky roof can't block much wind and rain, but it's not a big problem. With a little hard work, it can still be lived in.
At this time, Yan Yu walked in and hid behind Chen Mo, looking around. He was afraid that what Chen Mo said before was a lie to her. If there really was a shriveled corpse sitting or lying in this room, he might have to do something.
What a nightmare.
"How is it?" Chen Mo asked.
"It's okay, but I don't know how long this house has been unoccupied. A house without anyone taking care of it can easily collapse." After confirming that there was no scary mummy, Yan Yu went around knocking on the accomplished house.
"Just take some time to reinforce it. Let's stay here temporarily." Chen Mo decided.
"Then let's start quickly. At least we can sleep tonight." Yan Yu nodded in agreement.
"Then what are you still doing?"
"Huh? You want me to do these things?"
"Isn't it always you who does the odd jobs?"
"Ah~!!" Yan Yu bared his teeth and claws and pounced on Chen Mo.
...
In just two days, this place has already taken on some of its original appearance. The new trees outside the house were not able to survive Chen Mo's double swords. He didn't dare to be confident in those two swords, and his illustrious reputation was unexpected.
This person used it to do such low-end things. Of course, Chen Mo had to do the reinforcement of the house himself. As for Yan Yu's small arms and legs, how long did she have to do it? Yan Yu just cleaned all the dust in the room.
After that, he built a fence with the broken blade that he had followed Chen Mo in battles for many years. It is true that what kind of person will influence what kind of person.
The rabbit who had been trapped in the bamboo box for a long time was finally freed and had an open space for him to play. He just had to be wary of Chen Mo, who had been eyeing him covetously.
We have a place to shelter from wind and rain, but if we want to live a long-term life, we still need a lot of things, at least some of the most basic things. For example, windows that have no window paper for a long time need to be repaired, otherwise they will not be able to provide real wind protection.
Rain. I also need some simple quilts. I can't just sleep with my words wrapped in a few clothes. And what about food? I also need some firewood, rice, oil and salt. Chen Mo plans to live here for at least half a year. These things
It's better to have something. It doesn't matter if she's alone, but with Yan Yu following her, she can't live too shabbily.
"Where can I get these things you mentioned?" Yan Yu asked. "Buy them from the monks in the temple?"
"You forgot, didn't we go to that place before going to the temple?"
"Heart Peach Garden? Wow, you are not afraid of being cheated again. The things there are very expensive. I mean, you offended that big man to death last time. They are setting up a dragnet waiting for you to get stuck in."
"There's more than one peach garden around Mt. Rokusu. There are seven places like that. It's okay if I don't go there."
"It's up to you. Anyway, I won't go with you, and you don't want me to either." Yan Yu curled his lips and said.
"Um."
"I'm dirty, I have to take a shower."
"good."
.......
The place to live is settled, but there is one problem. The water source is a bit far away. The nearest one is the Baotu Spring, and the small stream formed by the gushing spring water does not flow to the side where Chen Mo lives.
But two miles is not too far. Let's face it, nothing in this world is perfect. These are Yan Yu's self-comforting words.
It's summer right now, and the cool spring water drives away the irritability of summer.
Under the moonlight, Yan Yu's petite and exquisite jade body was soaked in the tumbling spring water, and he was playing with the water splashes with his hands. Chen Mo was sitting on a stone not far from the pool, with his back to the pool, sitting cross-legged.
The rushing sound of the spring water reached Chen Mo's ears, and it did feel comfortable. Chen Mo began to reflect. From the moment he entered the military camp, he was forging ahead on the mountain road, and he never thought about relaxing for a moment.
.Did he really walk too hastily? Chen Mo reflected, he had been thinking about this problem during this period, but the imagination of the master's words became stronger, and he kept being hit, and then he stood still
Get up, this is what he did all the way here.
Do you understand the master's meaning wrongly, or do you not understand it thoroughly enough? Or, the master only teaches you half of what you mean, and the others have to figure it out on their own?
Since I stopped practicing, problems suddenly cropped up one after another, making me a little irritable.
Suddenly, the question Yan Yu asked that day at Fumo Temple came to mind: "Does the devil really exist?"
Monk Shuku's answer was: "Irritability is also a kind of demon."
Could it be that he is possessed by a demon?
Thinking of this, Chen Mo thought of the huge crack again, and couldn't help but pull out his sword Qingyu, holding it with one hand, holding it straight in front of him, the sharp blade glowing coldly in the bright moonlight.
Do you want to give yourself a knife?
Chen Mo himself laughed at this idea. He needed to do this. Even if he fell into the devil's path in a small realm, he would still be a harmless little devil. There were many people who were more powerful than him.
.The reason why the demon-subduing monk cut off the knife on himself is that he probably knew that once he fell into the devil's way, not many people could stop him. For the sake of the safety of the world, when he knew that he could not conquer his inner demons, he decisively attacked himself.
By taking action, there is one less holy monk and one less demon in the world.
There was a "crash", and something came out of the water. Yan Yu walked out of the water softly and stood on the shore, like a hibiscus emerging from the water. He wiped himself dry, put on clothes rustlingly, and looked at Chen Mo taking out the knife, and asked:
"What are you doing?"
"It's nothing." Chen Mo put the knife away. "It's my turn after washing it."
"oh."
Chen Mo took off his knife, walked barefoot to the shore, and took off his shirt in front of Yan Yu, revealing his thin but muscular body underneath. Under the moonlight, he could clearly see what he had left on Mount Guangshan not long ago.
scar.
Yan Yu turned his head away, with a slightly red face, and muttered in a low voice: "I'm still watching."
Although I had seen it up close when I helped Chen Mo apply the medicine, this scene was still rare at this time. After all, different situations should be treated differently, and girls should be more reserved.
There was a "swish" sound entering the water, and Yan Yu looked back. Chen Mo had already dived into the water, leaving only the clothes on the shore. He also took his own old clothes and shoes, and stepped back on the weak green grass with his little jade feet.
He went to the place where Chen Mo was sitting, dried his little feet, put on his shoes, took his new clothes to the shore, and then picked up his old clothes, along with his own old clothes, and went to the stream.
I started to clean up. Yan Yu had always done these things.
.......
On the way back, Chen Mo held the washed clothes in one hand and grabbed Yan Yu's wet long hair with the other hand to prevent it from sticking to her clothes and making them wet. Yan Yu waved the hair that Chen Mo chopped off.
The sunflower leaf fan, like a hero, kills the non-existent monsters in front of the road.
"Are you going down the mountain tomorrow?" Yan Yu meant that he was going shopping.
"Get it ready early and have a good morning."
"Then what should I do? I'm afraid of staying here alone."
"How about I take you to Hongque'an first, and then I'll pick you up after I buy something."
"Good idea."
"I thought of something."
"What's up?"
"The steamed buns in the temple are free of charge. If you bring a few more when the time comes, we will save a meal."
"Chen Mo, we have money, please stop being so picky."
"oh."
"But the idea you mentioned is indeed a good one."
