Chapter 708 Green Flowers, Peach Blossoms
Yunrong sat on a tree branch, squinting at the gradually dimming sky, and yawned lazily.
The sun is sinking and the sky is fading.
It is said that cold comes and summer comes, autumn harvests and winter hides.
But in this small Zhoushan, there are no four seasons of farming and harvesting.
This place has lots of sunshine and rain, and it belongs to Penglai.
Although it is an ordinary mountain, it is different from the human world.
It was spring at that time, the rice in the fields had matured in large areas, and the breeze was blowing in the mountains.
The golden waves are rolling, and the ears of wheat are swaying, like golden waves, one after another.
The sky is gradually fading, and the golden wheat is gradually becoming bleak and dim in the dusk. The wind is chilling, adding to the sadness.
Yun Rong untied the Xue Xue Sword and placed it between his legs. He leaned against the big tree with his back and rested his head on his arms, yawning continuously.
At this time, a stone hit the big tree behind her.
Yun Rong lowered her gaze and watched a wild child with rough and dark skin holding a pile of stones in his arms and throwing them at her.
There were still two unwiped green snot hanging under his nose, and he looked at Yun Rong with contempt.
But his eyes kept stealing glances at the jujubes on the tree.
"My father said that you are a lazy woman who doesn't like farm work. You hide in a tree and sleep every day. Do you know that you will eat all the dates on the jujube tree by yourself?"
Yun Rong blinked and asked with a smile: "This jujube tree belongs to your family?"
The naughty child was startled and said: "No."
Yun Rong said: "Since I'm not from your family, what does it have to do with you if I eat it all?"
The child's face turned red from suppressing it, and he raised his head high: "I won't allow you to Eat! All eight-year-old children in the village know that they have to work to have food. Why are you still so lazy when you are such a grown-up?”
Yun Rong put her hands behind her back and said with a smile: "I'm not lazy, climbing trees is very tiring."
As she said that, she glanced at the child and saw his purpose: "What? Do you want me to teach you how to climb a tree?”
The child’s eyes lit up and he quickly put down the stone in his arms. The arrogance on his face disappeared, and he was actually a little embarrassed. Hesitation and expectation: "Is it okay?"
Yun Rong said confidently: "Of course not, if I teach you how to climb trees, I will pick all the dates here for you. What will I fill my stomach with in the future?" "
The child cried out loudly. She was so bullied that she shook her nose and ran back towards home.
Yun Rong smiled and shook his head, reaching out to pick a date.
Although I was hungry, I was still injured after eating the dates for four whole days.
She was thinking about getting some bananas from the wild monkeys in the forest at the entrance to the village next door.
Just thinking that her temperament is very different from that of her junior brother, she has not been welcomed by small animals since she was a child.
Not to mention those monkeys and orangutans, even the most common cats and dogs are unwilling to get close to her.
She is good at dealing with swords, but she is not good at dealing with these living creatures.
Yunrong sighed at the setting sun, closed his eyes and began to fall asleep.
The dusk on the horizon dyed the entire sky red, and the entire western sky was burned red by the setting sun.
Lotus returns from the hoeing in the sunset, yellow beams rise from the kitchen smoke, the fields gather at dusk, and the shepherd boy riding the cow returns playing the flute. The low and bleating sounds form an extraordinarily peaceful and far-reaching rhythm in this mountainous countryside.
Thousands of lights were lit in low-rise villages located in different places. It was difficult to see farmers on the field roads due to the darkening darkness.
The lantern at the door of someone's house was overturned and rolled up, and a few dogs barked from time to time in the sandy alley.
The mortals here live next to the fairy mountain. They only know that the land and water here are fertile and the land and spirit are good in all seasons. However, they do not know that in the several layers of old mountains outside Xiaozhoushan, real immortals live.
I don’t know the immortals in this paradise.
The autumn water and the sky have the same color.
The late night was extremely quiet, and there was no sound of cicadas chirping at night. There were mountains stacked up in the distance, and sometimes the long howling of wolves could be heard at night.
Rustling...
Yunrong's ears suddenly twitched.
She heard a slight sound suddenly coming from under the jujube tree. It was very light, like the sound of jujubes hitting the fluffy soil.
Then there was a crackling sound of building firewood.
Click...
The firewood was lit, and the crackling sound of burning wood disturbed the peace of the night.
Not long after, the faint aroma of meat floated in the air.
Yunrong opened his eyes in surprise, feeling a little strange in his heart. He leaned over and saw the surprising scene under the tree clearly. He couldn't help but open his eyes wide, full of strangeness.
Can it not be surprising?
Under the tree, there was a fire, with strings of crucian carp and river shrimp tied up with wooden branches and grilled there. It was actually a... cat?
Yun Rong looked left and right, and after confirming that he was in Xiaozhoushan and not Fengzhi Island, the surprise in his eyes deepened.
This is a little guy who ran out of nowhere at the foot of a mountain. He is so excited in the middle of the night. He is actually grilling fish and shrimps in this remote place?
Yunrong changed his position and lay on the jujube tree, looking at the little white cat.
There is a ring of smoky gray fur on the round and fat head. The cuteness is comparable to that of the demon king mink in Fengzhi Mountain.
The grilled fish in the campfire were browned and crispy, and the cat grabbed the grilled fish into the fire pit with its paws.
Unexpectedly, a gust of evil wind blew from the south, blowing the bonfire that was burning sideways, and the hair on the cat's outstretched paw was instantly burnt to a bald black patch.
“Meow————————” The outstretched paw quickly retracted, and the cat meowed fiercely.
Yun Rong was unkindly amused and laughed out loud, "I said you cats shouldn't eat all the small fish and shrimps raw. Why are you making a fire here at night to roast them? Son, I’m not afraid of setting your hair on fire.”
Seeing that the fish and shrimp were about to be burnt, the silly cat was still squatting and watching helplessly.
No matter how hard-hearted Yun Rong was, she couldn't stand it anymore. She jumped down from the jujube tree, stretched out her long white palms, took out two skewers of fish and shrimp from the bonfire, and handed them to the cat.
The white cat was not afraid of food either. He sniffed it, grabbed one of the fish and shrimps in one mouthful, and then pushed another skewer of grilled fish to Yun Rong with his paws.
Yunrong raised his eyebrows slightly.
Hey, you are still a generous cat.
Yunrong, who has never known the meaning of politeness, did not refuse. He found a clean place to sit down and patiently peeled shrimp shells and fish bones.
I thought a cat’s craftsmanship could be so good.
Unexpectedly, the shrimp meat is tender and the fish skin is crispy as soon as you take it into your mouth.
Yunrong enjoyed the cat's food without any burden.
How can one just eat a bunch of fish and shrimps to fill her stomach? She plunged the empty skewers in her hand into the soil, and then looked at the small skewers that were roasting in the bonfire.
At this time, the evil wind has stopped, and the cat is no longer afraid of being burned by the fire. He holds the fish and shrimp skewers with his two paws, shaking his beard and blowing the hot air.
Smelling the aroma of food in the air, Yun Rong couldn't help but lick her lips, but in the end she couldn't bear to beg for food from a cat.
As an adult herself, and also a well-known person in the world, there is no limit to her competing with a child to eat dates in this small mountain village. An ordinary person would not be able to do such a thing.
But Yun Rong is not an ordinary person. It is her own ability to compete with children for food, so she does not blush.
But it’s really shameful to worry about a cat’s dried fish.
Who knows, that cat is more generous than she imagined.
After blowing the small fish and shrimps to cool down, he used his small fangs to shave the fish bones and peel off the shrimp shells very carefully.
Then he lifted his tail and brought a large handful of dried fish and shrimps in his paws in front of her. Yun Rong was greatly surprised: "Give it to me?"
The white cat shook its beard and looked at its little appearance, it seemed like it was smiling.
With that small nose and small mouth, there is no ordinary cat with the serious and angry look of being born with a droopy mouth.
If it were normal times, Yun Rong would never believe that a cat could smile so brightly.
Yun Rong sat on the ground with her hands on her knees. For a moment, she was not sure that all the food was for her, and she was too embarrassed to reach out to take it.
She tentatively reached her head and took out a small dried fish in its claws.
Yeah, it tastes good, and it’s roasted to the right temperature.
The kitten showed no sign of being stingy in protecting its food, and did not retract its paws. Its tail was swaying behind its back, and it seemed to be in a good mood.
After Yun Rong was relieved and finished one small dried fish, he also ate two river shrimps.
Then there was another small dried fish and two river shrimps.
The fish and shrimp on the skewer were gradually empty. Yun Rong took the last small dried fish on the skewer and suddenly paused in the movement of sticking his head out.
She squinted her eyes and looked at the round-faced kitten in front of her. She realized that she had unknowingly put her hands on the ground, and the posture of her head stretched out finally made her feel something was wrong.
Are you being eaten by a cat? !
Is this decent?
Yun Rong slowly frowned, sat up straight, and thought about it carefully. The face of Tianxi Sijian must not be lost, and he still has to be assertive when it is time to act.
She coughed lightly and said: "They say cats' tongues are afraid of being hot. I just tried to test the temperature of the food for you. Well, it's not hot anymore. You can eat it."
What? Test the temperature of the food until there is only one small dried fish left.
Yun Rong saw the kitten's snow-white belly bulging, obviously suppressing a smile.
"If you dare to laugh out loud, I will pluck out your mustache one by one." Yun Rong smiled slightly and raised the corners of his mouth.
The kitten shook off the empty skewers from its paws and put the last skewer of dried fish into Yun Rong's hand.
Then he took a few steps back, covering his abdomen with one paw and slapping the ground with the other, making a look of laughter, but he listened to Yun Rong's words and did not laugh out loud.
Yunrong: "..."
In the following days that Xiaozhoushan Sisi lived, Yunrong had a kitten by his side.
Yunrong was not completely idle in Xiaozhoushan.
Since Sword Master Yu ordered her to work hard again, she would often do what a mortal should do like a mortal in the mountains.
In the early morning, if Yun Rong is harvesting rice in the rice fields, the kitten will be waiting for her in the fields with wild fruits in its mouth that stimulate fluid and quench thirst.
In Xiaozhoushan, ordinary old people often suffer from diseases, but Yun Rong has the ability to know medicine.
When she goes deep into the mountains to collect herbs, cats will follow her step by step.
In the evening, Yun Rong returned to the village in an ox cart driven by someone from the same village. One person and one cat lay on the hay pile in the cart, counting the few stars in the sky.
The moon cages people's houses, and the stars and fields enter the painting.
Listening to the gentle snoring of the sleeping kitten beside him, Yun Rong couldn't help but look sideways at the kitten curled up in a ball.
After hundreds of years of living, this was the first time she encountered a small animal that loved to cling to her.
She is born with difficulty empathizing with others. She has no spirit in her heart, and everything is like a passing cloud. She is fearless.
Even her fellow disciples, few are close and friendly with her.
Even the second senior sister Yue Nu, who has the kindest, gentlest and most tolerant temperament among the Thirteen Swords, it is difficult to talk to her on the same terms.
This cat is a strange one. It might as well be said that it was a hungry stray cat that was fed a mouthful of hot food and followed her out of gratitude.
But this is a cat that can be self-reliant and even support a family. With its good ability to fish and catch shrimps, it can even beg a little female cat to give birth to a litter of kittens. He is a capable cat who cannot afford his wife and children.
On the contrary, she lived in a jujube tree and was fed by it...
Why did she end up relying on this cat? Day and night, he caught crabs and puffer fish and cooked them three meals a day for her to eat.
It's even more amazing these days. A little thing as big as a ding has actually learned to pick mushrooms and hunt hares?
As if he were afraid of starving her, he tried his best to get her something delicious.
Jian Zhuyu exiled her to Xiaozhoushan with the intention of letting her suffer the bitter cold and hunger of mortals.
But within a month of entering the mountain, Yun Rongsheng fed this little guy and made him more energetic and energetic.
Back in the village, Yun Rong sat on a bullock cart and distributed the collected herbs one by one, delivering them from door to door.
Among the hundreds of immortal sects, although Yun Rong is not the best in medicine, for ordinary people, he can be regarded as an expert in medicine.
"Miss Yun, if you hadn't gone to the mountain every day to collect medicine and send it to me, I really don't know what to do with my sick leg. You are such a good person."
A village woman took the herbal package sent by Yun Rong with tears in her eyes, her eyes filled with gratitude.
Although Xiaozhoushan has outstanding people, it is located outside the Central Capital of the Four Seas. The medical conditions here are limited, and sometimes a minor illness can kill a child.
The woman was wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes, holding Yun Rong's hand and thanking her endlessly.
At this time, a few meows came from the corner of the wall, and an orange kitten stretched out its four long soft legs and stepped out of the shadows on cat steps.
Those meows were extremely charming, and her entangled little eyes were like little hooks. She looked at the white cat nestled on Yun Rong's shoulder from a distance, and her small figure instantly became as soft as Water.
Yun Rong: "???"
The aunt at the head of the village: "..."
In a burst of soft, charming and romantic meows , the woman could only smile twice at Yun Rong.
"This is my cat, named Cuihua. Spring is here, and the kittens and puppies in our village are inevitably in heat.
Our Cuihua has a good figure and is well-organized. Yes, but we are honored She is one of the most beautiful women in her village. On weekdays, many little male cats climb over the wall to look for her, but I drive them back one by one with a broom."
While speaking, the woman secretly glanced at Yun. The white cat on the shoulder.
Dear me, her man left early. These days, even looking at a cat feels pretty.
This girl Yun looks like a wonderful person, and the cats she raises are so smart and handsome.
Yun Rongben listened to the woman's nagging words word by word.
When I heard the word "beauty", I couldn't help but take a look at the little female cat. She is a very common orange cat in the village. She has a soft and graceful figure. She can be called the 'beauty' among cats. .
But what’s going on with this woman’s pimp tone?
The woman is also thoughtful. She sees that Yun Rong's demeanor and charm are hard to find in the world. She can tell at a glance that he is definitely not an ordinary person.
It's a pity that she has no children and cannot get married to such a fairy.
But it doesn't matter, she has Cuihua as her sweetheart.
If the precious cat raised by the daughter all day long could be paired with the cat raised by Miss Yun, it would be a good story in their Rongjia Village, right?
The woman asked with a smile: "I wonder what Miss Yun's cat is called?"
Yun Rong was embarrassed to say that she was picked up by this cat, so she had to She put on a show and let these mortals know that it was she who was raising the cat, not the cat who was raising her.
So I randomly gave it a name: "Peach Blossom."
The kitten named Peach Blossom: "..."
The woman clapped her hands and beamed with joy: "Peach blossoms are good, peach blossoms are good, they match my green flowers very well~~"
Yun Rong looked at the kitten sideways and asked, "How about I get you a wife? That little female cat looks good."
