Chapter Six: Backcountry

Near a mountain lake, under the moonlight, a man stood by the lake, quietly staring at the center of the lake, thoughtfully.

According to what the young man just said, this place should be isolated from the rest of the world by a barrier.

The barrier has been broken, and until now, there has been no movement in the village. No one should have known about the appearance of this foreign guest, but it cannot be ruled out that they are holding back and using a delaying strategy.

The red light that I chopped down before should be a warning object. In this case, there must be a magic weapon connected to it in the second floor of the bamboo building.

That young man has a talent that is unprecedented in his life. He absorbs spiritual energy at a speed that is much faster than ordinary people. However, the speed at which he loses spiritual energy is also far beyond that of ordinary people. It is really weird. If it can be solved, this person is really a piece of jade.

The man began to close his eyes and rest his mind. He broke the barrier first and consumed a lot of energy. To be safe, he should recover as soon as possible.

The tip of the scabbard of the Slaughter Formation sword was buried in the ground, his hands were folded, and he pressed the hilt of the sword. He straightened his body, and the spiritual energy slowly entered his body. Under the moonlight, it added a bit of brilliance.

——

In the north of the village, Wei Fangxun was lying on the bed. He turned over slightly. Perhaps he was dreaming about something. The corners of his mouth were slightly raised, half-smiling.

——

The next day, the rooster crows.

The wind blew gently and I started to wash myself.

Chen Shiye limped out of the room. At this time, he no longer had to use the bamboo pole for strength. Seeing Feng Ziqing's sleepy face, he smiled and cursed: "What's wrong, you brat? I didn't sleep well last night, why are you so listless?"

Yes, it shouldn’t be. In the past, your kid sometimes stayed up all night and was still in high spirits the next day. Could it be that you dreamed of something last night? It couldn’t be an erotic dream, hahaha.”

"Laughing fart, maybe it was from fishing yesterday. You don't know. That girl Jing was very energetic. She yelled all afternoon and made me depressed. I don't blame her. She is also the first person in so many years.

She caught so many fish at one time, so I have to forgive her."

"The excuse, as soon as I heard it, was, don't be shy, brat. Who hasn't had an erotic dream yet? Tell me, did you steal the treasures under my bed? Tsk tsk, you kid can do it. You have found all these, eh

?What does the person in the dream look like? Is it beautiful? How does it compare with the one in the book? Hehe."

"Nothing, I'm not interested in your book, just cook." After saying that, he walked straight into the kitchen.

"You're just pretending, walking so fast, you feel guilty, hahaha." Chen Shiye watched the young man enter the kitchen, shook his head, and smiled, but there was a trace of worry and a trace of struggle in his eyes, but they were fleeting.

.

With nothing to do, the two began to play chess to pass the time, arguing endlessly.

After playing chess, Chen Shiye walked back and forth in the courtyard to recover. The wind turned over a few pieces of soil in the corner of the courtyard, re-buried the seeds in the pit, and watered it until noon.

.

After lunch, the man assigned Feng Ziqing a task, "Xiao Feng, Lao Liu asked you to help him herd the cows in the afternoon, and then go back to pick up the wooden bridge. By the way, when I went out to the village to do shopping a few days ago, I bought two

If you feel bored, take it with you to pass the time."

"Uncle Chen, you told me earlier. I have been busy these days. It seems that the few moves I made you regret just now are not a loss."

"Go, go, elder brother, don't talk about second brother, neither of us will be any better. Hurry up, take your books and let your cows go."

"Aren't you impatient? Come on, let's go now."

Feng Ziqing entered the house with a smile, took the book, and before going out, he didn't forget to look at the fish in the water tank. They were very good and lively. By the way, he reminded the man a few words, don't forget to apply Yuwei fish bone powder."

When I walked out the door, I saw the trees on both sides, and I muttered something to myself. They looked pretty good, and I didn’t know what kind of tree they were.

Without stopping, he walked towards Liu Bianshu's home. When he arrived outside Liu Bianshu's courtyard, the door opened and he walked in.

In the courtyard, Liu Bianshu was lying on a bamboo chair, enjoying the cool air under his own pergola, with a big cattail leaf swaying from time to time, looking very comfortable and leisurely.

Seeing this, Feng Ziqing couldn't help complaining to Chen Shiye, looking at Lao Liu's craftsmanship, it was also a pergola, how could it be so different? Can his own one also be called a pergola?

From time to time, the sound of reading aloud could be heard in the room, and people nodded, Liu Jiangan was quite a hard-working guy.

"Old Liu, it's okay. You should still know how to live. The cows are in the backyard. I can go there myself and won't bother you."

Liu Bianshu didn't argue, and opened his mouth to say: "You are still a good man, unlike your Uncle Chen, who is as thick-skinned as a wall and makes you feel bad when you see him."

Feng Ziqing smiled, and without saying a few polite words, he took out the big buffalo that was drinking water from the backyard. Regardless of the complaints in the cow's eyes, he said hello to Liu Bianshu and left.

Follow the winding path to the east of the village, go all the way east, and exit a small forest. After walking a few dozen steps, you will reach the end of the path.

Further ahead, there is a small river. The wooden bridge is above the small river. It is a wooden arch bridge. It has been for a long time. The bridge railings are covered with wild vines and wild flowers are blooming on the vines.

On the other side of the river is a small valley surrounded by mountains, with flowers and grass everywhere, the grass can reach knee high, and the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant.

This place is about five miles away from the village. It is the furthest place from the village that Feng Ziqing has ever walked. Only here did Feng Ziqing dare to sing loudly, soothe his depressed heart and then enjoy the quietness. This is why he is grazing cattle today.

Such a positive reason.

Perhaps because it is far away from the village, other children in the village have weak legs and are rarely arranged to come here to graze, so they can only arrange to come by themselves.

Walk onto the connecting wooden bridge, put down the cow rope, and let the buffalo get off the bridge alone and wander along the path previously trodden in the grass. The buffalo is very spiritual and will never be too far away from you.

The weather was hot, and my thin shirt was soaked with sweat from the walk. The wind was so light that I simply took off my clothes, put down my books, bare my buttocks, and plunged into the river under the bridge with a plop.

"This is life, this is summer."

The wind floated on the water and sighed, its hands and feet kept swinging, and the fish entered the water, so happy.

After about the time of a stick of incense, Feng Ziqing walked onto the bridge happily. He bent down and was about to get dressed, when he heard a scream of "Ah" that echoed through the mountains and fields.

Feng Ziqing shivered in fright, turned around and saw not far away, Wei Jing covered her eyes with her hands, her cheeks were red, and she was at a loss.

He quickly put on his clothes, walked to Wei Jing, and said with an angry smile: "Girl Jing, why are you here? Your shouting almost scared me to death!"

"You, you, are you dressed? I, I, I didn't see anything. It's true."

"Hey, you didn't see anything, why did you ask me if I was well-dressed?"

"I, I, I don't know, that's nonsense, um, that's nonsense." The girl blushed, trying to convince herself.

"Okay, I won't tease you anymore. I just believe you. Speaking of which, why are you here? Did the village chief ask you to come?"

"Hey, Brother Xiaofeng, how did you know that you are so awesome? Grandpa asked me to come here. He told me that you were too far away from the village alone, and asked me if I would like to come and join you. Of course I am willing.

, so I came. I didn’t expect that as soon as I came, I would..."

Feng Ziqing was just saying it casually. He never thought that he had anything to do with Wei Fanxun. Weird, Wei Fanxun always ignored me. Why did he do this this time?

"Come on, come on. I just happened to bring two books here today. They are called County Chronicles. Have you not read them? Girl Jing, my Uncle Chen brought these back from outside. Don't tell others, otherwise you won't bring them with you in the future.

You played."

This threat, used against Wei Jing, has always been successful.

The girl nodded quickly, "Don't worry, Brother Xiaofeng, I will listen to you in everything."

Feng Ziqing nodded with satisfaction and asked the girl to go to the river to wash her face. Then the two of them found a shady place and started reading.

One is thick and the other is thin, so there is exactly one book for each person. Of course the boy chooses the thin one because he can finish reading the thin one first.

In the open area of ​​the valley, a gentle breeze blows from time to time, blowing the hair of young girls.

The cover of the book is a bit shabby, but fortunately the inside pages are complete. The boy is holding the Chronicle of Xihe County, and the girl is holding the Chronicle of Luwen County. After a cursory look, Luwen County and Xihe County are adjacent to each other.

According to the records of Xihe County and County, Xihe County is located in the northwest of Wenlin Kingdom, Wenlin Kingdom is located at the western end of Xiliu Yuzhou, and Qingfeng Village is within the territory of Xuyang County under its jurisdiction.

Xihe County is located in the far west. Although it occupies a vast area, it is comparable to two Luwen County, but it is limited to this. No matter whether it is the official atmosphere or the prosperity of the county, it cannot compare with that neighbor.

It hurts, but my uncle doesn’t love me.

As for what the world is like, Feng Ziqing felt that what Wei Fangxun said was too exaggerated. Although it was not stated in detail in the book, he learned from Deng Zhi's mouth that the folk customs in the northwest were fierce, and bandits and thieves occasionally made trouble, but soon after

It is said that the meeting will be subdued and people were plundered, but there is no record in the county annals. This is worth pondering.

It is said in the book that although Qingfeng Village belongs to Xuyang County, because it is close to the Monster Mountain Range, it is a veritable place of barren mountains and harsh waters. Therefore, there are only a few records about Qingfeng Village.

This makes sense, why for so many years, children in the village have not been allowed to go out, no outsiders have ever entered Qingfeng Village, and no one has noticed the difference here. I am afraid that no one cares about Qingfeng Village.

As for this monster mountain range, it is a place where monsters gather and rarely appear on human continent.

Feng Ziqing rubbed his chin with one hand. The place in the far west, unexplored and isolated from the world, was really a good place.
