Gently closing the book, Feng Ziqing began to close his eyes and think.
Wei Fangxun, the villagers, the village, and the altar all reveal weirdness. If these are put together, then it is not weird.
He opened his eyes and glanced at the girl. He saw that she was looking fascinated. She was so happy and didn't worry about anything. He just couldn't figure out how Wei Fangxun could bring back a baby girl himself.
Although the other boys in the village were taught by their own adults and have normal minds, they are all taciturn and stick to the rules. In Wei Jing's words, they are dull, only nodding but not shaking their heads, which is really boring.
Except for Lao Liu and Chen Shiye, who share similar odors, the other men in the village talk less and occasionally sit on the first floor of the bamboo house and chat about household matters, which seems quite normal.
Logically speaking, these people all have different personalities. There will always be one or two people out of ten who have different personalities. Now it seems that for the children in the village, it is not just a matter of education.
He deliberately chose such an isolated place and deliberately taught the children like this. He must be planning something, and they are not young at all.
This was done deliberately, and it seems that we need to consult General Deng for advice.
"Brother Xiaofeng, you have finished reading. Grandpa said that the world outside is in chaos. Is that true? Is it written in the book?"
Feng Ziqing pondered for a moment, pointed at the book and said, "Yes, look here, there are bandits and thieves, it's not peaceful outside. The village chief is right."
Wei Jing took a closer look and saw that it was indeed there. She smiled and said, "Grandpa really didn't lie to me. I thought it was just to prevent us from having fun, so he kept us from going out. I even complained about grandpa, but I really shouldn't have."
After the girl finished speaking, she looked guilty.
"It's good to know. From now on, be good and don't think about running around and jumping up and down all day long."
The girl smiled shyly, nodded heavily, pointed to the book in her hand and said: "Brother Xiaofeng, when it's peaceful outside, you can take me out to see if it's okay. Let's go to Luwen County. The book says it's pretty good here."
Okay, there is no war or chaos like grandpa said, and the people live and work in peace and contentment."
Feng Zi smiled slightly. The two grew up together. In his eyes, the girl was like kissing his sister. When he first saw her, she was still a baby under one year old and could not speak. Now she has grown so big in the blink of an eye.
He felt relieved and nodded, "Okay, when you can go out in the future, I will definitely take you to the entire Luwen County, Xihe County where we live, and even the entire Wenlin Kingdom, and eat all the delicious food
Yeah, I’ll make you fat and white, hahaha”
"Then we made an agreement and we can't go back on it. Come on, pull the hook."
"Okay, hook up."
The big buffalo not far away also let out a "moo" at the right time, as if to remind him something. Feng Ziqing smiled and cursed at the big buffalo, "Hey, you are quite smart. I know, I won't forget you when I go out."
.”
The girl looked at the boy in front of her and smiled.
The young man looked into the distance, the breeze blowing on his face, and his heart was full of longing.
Flowers, plants and wooden bridges are the scenery in the eyes of a boy, and a boy is the scenery in the eyes of a girl.
…
I haven't finished the book yet, and I'm getting farther and farther west.
The two of them washed their faces by the river and walked onto the connecting wooden bridge. The girl reached out and picked a wild flower from the bridge railing, pinned it in her hair, and smiled shyly, "Brother Xiaofeng, does it look good?"
The boy couldn't bear to hit the girl and suppressed his smile, "It's good. If you were whiter, you would look better."
Wei Jing nodded. Brother Xiaofeng really likes to be whiter. What should I do? There is no rouge or gouache mentioned in the book in the village. Will it be better to wear a straw hat when going out in the future? It would be better if it is winter.
Don’t worry about getting tanned, ugh
The wind blew on the bridge for a while, and after the two chatted for a while, Fengzi pointed his finger lightly, and the girl immediately understood and walked towards the big buffalo.
They led the cow to a small river and became familiar with it. After the cow lay down, the two began to splash water on the big buffalo. When their clothes and trousers were half wet, they began to lead the cow back.
On the path, the girl is holding a book, the boy is holding a weed in his mouth, the cow rope is tied to the horns of the cow, and the cow is following behind.
As the sun sets, send people home.
At the entrance of the village, Wei Fangxun waved to the girl after seeing the two people coming back. The girl said goodbye to the boy and left with Wei Fangxun.
Feng Zi gently patted the cow's butt, and the cow mooed and walked towards Liu Bianshu's home. Halfway through, Liu Jiangan appeared and led the cow back, and then they left.
Back in the courtyard, Chen Shiye was sitting on a stool choosing vegetables. The injury on his leg had mostly healed, and it seemed that he would be able to walk freely in two days.
Feng Ziqing walked straight into her room, took out the two books in her arms, put them on the bedside, turned back and helped the man choose vegetables.
After dinner, the two played a few games of chess, and it was already dark.
After cleaning up and chatting for a while, they freshened up and went back to their rooms. Not long after, a lamp blew in the man's room, and the wind continued to read the county annals under the lamp.
After the man fell asleep, he blew out the lamp, put the book in his arms, quietly walked out of the door, and walked toward the nearby mountain lake.
Near the mountain and lake, Deng Zhi stood outside the bamboo house. After feeling the young man approaching, he stopped practicing and said, "You are quite punctual. I had to arrive late because of you."
"Since we have made this agreement, we should try our best to fulfill it." Feng Zi chuckled and bowed to the general with fists in his hands.
Deng Zhi nodded slightly, with a smile on his face, and entered the bamboo house with the young man.
After sitting down, Feng Ziqing took out the book from his arms and handed it to the general. Deng passed by directly and began to read slowly. Seeing things at night was easy for those who cultivated immortality.
The two did not communicate much during the period. After the general closed the book, Feng Ziqing slowly asked: "General, how does this place compare with the outside?"
Feng Ziqing brought the book over, which was naturally a decision made after some thought. Let alone wanting to check this kind of book outside, it is naturally easy for a cultivator to give the book to him as soon as he comes up.
It is very important to show sincerity and show that you already believe the other person, so as to gain the other person's favor.
Deng Zhi pondered for a while and said: "Well, it's strange. This place is an extremely remote place. It can be described as a poor place with poor mountains and harsh waters. The choice to live here and not move away makes no sense. It must be deliberate.
In this case, Xiaofeng, I will not hide it from you. The Qingfeng Village where you are located has actually been set up as a barrier."
Feng Zi nodded lightly, as expected, it was indeed the case.
"I did a rough inspection and found nothing unusual in the village except for the red light. As for the outside of the village, I guess that there should be a blinding circle or the like set up to confuse others. Mortals don't need to say more, even if
It's a warrior and a cultivator. It's not easy to discover if you don't reach a certain level. I only discovered the barrier here when I was fighting monsters and the sword energy stirred up and collided with the barrier."
Feng Ziqing was a little anxious, "The general broke through the barrier and entered, but no one in the village knew about it?"
The corner of Deng Zhi's mouth rose, "Do you think that sword energy of mine is vegetarian? If my prediction is correct, the altar in the village is connected to the things on the second floor of the bamboo house. You are a mortal and cannot feel it.
The moment I entered the barrier, a red light appeared at the altar and shot out of the window on the second floor of the bamboo building. Once the red light entered the house, it would alert the villagers and the villagers would know."
"So the general's sword energy caused the red light to dissipate into nothingness?"
Deng Zhi nodded, "But we can't take this lightly. Except for the children, the villagers are all practitioners although they are not at a high level. There is no guarantee that they don't have some means to suppress the situation. Therefore, don't let any news about you and me.
.”
Feng Zhaqing cupped his hands and said sternly: "General, please rest assured, I still know the priority of the matter. Once the incident occurs, if the general is implicated, there will be no redemption. I wonder how much the general knows about this barrier?"
Deng Zhi smiled after hearing this. He is young and mature, and the general's vision is indeed good. Then he shook his head helplessly and said helplessly: "As for why I set up the barrier, I feel ashamed to say that I am not good at this method, and I don't know what this formation is."
For what purpose, I will ask the fellow monks when I return to the camp to see if they have encountered it before."
Feng Ziqing sighed in his heart, but was not too disappointed, "It doesn't matter, after all these years of living here, there has never been an accident. I feel sorry for having to trouble the general again for this."
"You are quite open-minded. If it were me, I might not be as open-minded as you."
Feng Ziqing grinned, "General, I wonder if I can absorb spiritual energy now?
"Well, have you been feeling unwell since last night?"
"It has never been the same as before."
"That's it, you start to absorb the spiritual energy now, I'm watching from the side."
Feng Zi nodded lightly, sat down cross-legged on the bamboo bed, and began to absorb the spiritual energy.
As you can imagine, the result is no different from yesterday.
Deng Zhi kept observing the young man while he was absorbing the spiritual energy. If he found anything unusual, he shook his head at the young man. The latter lowered his eyes and sighed.
In order to avoid losing the young man's spirit, Deng Zhi advised: "Young people should not sigh. If it doesn't work once, then try it a few more times. If it doesn't work a few times, then keep persisting. You must understand that you can absorb spiritual energy.
, you are qualified to cultivate immortality. As long as you find the reason for the rapid loss of spiritual energy, the problem will no longer be a problem."
