Fantasy Farm

Lu Qingjiu took a nap, feeling the fatigue in his body was swept away, seeing that it was getting late, he got up to make dinner.

Yin Xun came back quite late, and when he came back, his expression was very resentful. Lu Qingjiu thought he had been given an injection, so he didn't think too much about it. He didn't know how his poor little son was threatened with his life.

After Jiang Buhuan left, they resumed their peaceful life in the past. The farm work at home was never finished, and the two little white pigs raised by the family also grew into big pigs.These two little white pigs were bought together when Xiao Hei Xiao Hua came, but Xiao Hei Xiao Hua still looks like a little pig, and the little white pig has become a big pig.In order for them to survive the winter, Lu Qingjiu has not forgotten to ask Yin Xun to burn a pot of charcoal for them every day and cook a pot of hot pig food. The big one was pulled by a pig.

"So what do you want to say to them now?" Lu Qingjiu asked Yin Xun. The big white pig has almost grown up after being raised for a year. If it continues to be raised, the meat will grow old instead, so he plans to find an auspicious time to kill the pig. to eat meat.

"I want to say." Yin Xun said, "I hope their meat tastes better."

Lu Qingjiu: "..." He thought of Xiao Hua who died young again.

Now that they decided to eat pork, the task of killing pigs fell into their hands. The village is small and there is no pig butcher at all. The pigs raised by the villagers themselves are slaughtered by themselves.Although Lu Qingjiu had killed chickens before, he had never done anything with an animal as big as a pig. After asking his neighbors about the process, he was very hopeless.

"It seems to tie the pig to the stool, and then stab it with a knife." Yin Xun danced with a borrowed pig knife beside him, "The blood came down with a whimper..."

Lu Qingjiu: "...Are you coming? Shall I hold it for you?"

Yin Xun whispered: "But I haven't killed it, this pig is heavier than me."

Lu Qingjiu: "..."

The two looked at each other for a moment, and then their eyes drifted to the same place - Bai Yuehu sitting in the yard.

Lu Qingjiu walked over to Bai Yuehu slowly, holding a butcher's knife, "Fox."

Bai Yuehu opened his eyes: "Kill the pig?" He had already heard the conversation between the two just now.

Lu Qingjiu: "Uh...um."

Bai Yuehu said: "Okay." He sat up from the chair, reached out and took the knife in Lu Qingjiu's hand, and walked towards the pigsty after getting up.Lu Qingjiu, who was watching, hurriedly took a basin and followed behind. Pig blood is a good thing, and it tastes great when used to make blood sausage.

Bai Yuehu came to the pigsty with a cold expression, and stretched out his hand to lift the pig out. Others slaughtered pigs and had to be held down by a few big men. He didn't need it at all. Just like a small animal, there is no power to struggle.Then there was the white knife in and the red knife out, with that resolute and indifferent expression, Yin Xun, who was watching by the side, felt his neck inexplicably cold, and took a few steps back involuntarily.

Bai Yuehu is quite a competent butcher of pigs. After the slaughter, he still didn't forget to divide the pig's meat. The pork was quickly divided into several large pieces in his hands. Lu Qingjiu took a pig's leg and gave it to the neighbor. At Li Xiaoyu's house, the rest are going to cook a big pork meal.

Different from the pork bought in the town, their pork is very good in quality and very fragrant. Lu Qingjiu sorted out the pork belly, stir-fried the twice-cooked pork, stewed a pot of pig's feet soup, and marinated four pig's feet and Pig ears and pig head meat are used for cold dressing. All in all, every part of the pig is used to its full potential.

The fat on the pigs fed with grain is much less than that of the pigs fed with feed, but it is very fragrant. It is put in a pot to refine the oil, and the remaining oil residue sprinkled with sugar is another side dish.

After killing the pig, the family was as happy as in the New Year. Even Xiao Hei Xiao Hua got a cooked stick with big bones and gnawed it with relish.

It's April, the weather is starting to get hotter, and the clothes are getting less and less. At night, Lu Qingjiu brought the pig ears and pig feet that were marinated during the day to the yard, and took a few bottles of cold beer, and the three of them ate in the yard while chatting.After being marinated in brine, the pig's feet and ears become soft and delicious. If you like spicy taste, you can also dip some chili noodles mixed with sesame seeds and spices.

The weather is fine today, the moon is very round, and the atmosphere in the yard is good. Bai Yuehu doesn't like drinking, but he is still very interested in lo mei.Yin Xun talked about some strange things he encountered after he became a mountain god, such as why the parents didn't want the child and deliberately led the child to the mountain and threw it away, or helped the child find a way to send it down the mountain safely.

Lu Qingjiu heard this and wanted to frown, and was about to say why there are such irresponsible parents, when suddenly there was a loud noise from the sky.The sound seemed to be like a mountain collapsing, and Lu Qingjiu's ears were buzzing. Bai Yuehu, who was originally sitting on the rocking chair with a calm expression, suddenly changed his face, and said, "Stay at home and don't move."

"What happened?" Lu Qingjiu hurriedly asked.

Bai Yuehu shook his head and said, "I don't know yet, I'll go and have a look first." He stood up, a black mist rose around him, and then disappeared in front of Lu Qingjiu.

Lu Qingjiu had never seen such a serious look on Bai Yuehu's face before, and he asked, "What's the matter?"

Yin Xun said blankly: "The sky seems to be broken..."

Lu Qingjiu: "The sky is broken??" He looked in the direction Yin Xun was looking at, and found that the sky really seemed to be broken. In the dark sky, there appeared a very long red glow. That glow It pierced through the sky, leaving a dazzling trace in the sky, but there seemed to be black clouds moving in the glow, as if something was about to gushe out from it, and it made people feel uncomfortable.

Lu Qingjiu and Yin Xun stared blankly together. Although they didn't know what the glow meant, it was obviously not a good thing. Black clouds overflowed from the glow, and the entire sky seemed to be leaking. .

The feeling of uneasiness in Yin Xun's heart became more and more intense, he said: "Sake, let's go back to the house."

Lu Qingjiu said: "Okay."

The two left the yard, returned to the house, and closed the doors and windows.

The red glow gradually expanded, Lu Qingjiu watched from afar, waiting for its change.Yin Xun was more sensitive than Lu Qingjiu, and now he didn't dare to look outside, but shrank in the corner of the room, his body trembling involuntarily.Lu Qingjiu looked at his appearance, worried: "Are you okay, Yin Xun?"

"No...it's okay." Yin Xun said tremblingly, "Sake, you...do you know...the year your parents had an accident, there was such a ray of light in the sky."

Lu Qingjiu was stunned.

"Then there was continuous heavy rain." Yin Xun lowered his head, "I can't feel anything." He was originally the mountain god in the mountains, and every change in the plants and trees on the mountains could emerge in his heart, but this glow As soon as he came out, his perception of the mountain seemed to be blocked by a strange force, and wherever his spiritual vision could reach, there was nothingness.

Lu Qingjiu thought of the death of his parents. All along, he thought that his parents' death was an accident. Although he returned to Shuifu Village with doubts because of what the old tree said, he didn't find anything special.It wasn't until his birthday, when he opened the wooden box left by his grandmother, that he realized that the death of his parents was not an accident.

Outside of the water mansion, there are foreign lands, so what exactly does the foreign land refer to? Does it refer to the world that Bai Yuehu took him to?Or some other place?

The sky should have been dark, but the dazzling rays of light lit up half of the sky.In such a vision, the entire Shuifu Village fell into silence. It seemed that none of the villagers were interested in the strange scene in the sky. All the doors of the houses were closed, like dead tombs.

Although he didn't know what happened, but because of instinct, Yin Xun fell into unspeakable fear.He was afraid of that ray of light, to be precise, he was afraid of what was about to overflow in the ray of light.

Lu Qingjiu was a little better than Yin Xun, he was sitting by the window, staring at Xiaguang intently.The area of ​​Xiaguang became larger and larger, and more and more black clouds gushed out of it. Then, it seemed that something approached Xiaguang and blocked the gap with its body.

Because of the backlight, Lu Qingjiu couldn't see exactly what it was, but from the outline, it seemed to be a dragon-shaped creature.

Lu Qingjiu stared at the sky, and he guessed the identity of the dragon-shaped creature... It was obviously his lazy tenant, Bai Yuehu.

But what is he doing, and what does Xiaguang mean?Uneasiness surged in Lu Qingjiu's heart. He knew that Bai Yuehu's injury hadn't completely healed. If there was another fight, would Bai Yuehu's body really be able to hold on?Lu Qingjiu was very worried, but he was just a mortal, there were too few things he could do, and even Bai Yuehu had to be distracted to protect him.

Not knowing exactly what Bai Yuehu had done, the glow in the sky began to dim, and the sky gradually returned to its usual peaceful appearance.

As Yin Xun expected, big and big raindrops began to fall, pouring down, forming a huge curtain, covering the whole world.The rain was so heavy that Lu Qingjiu couldn't even hear Yin Xun's murmur clearly, nor could he see what happened to the red glow behind the dark clouds.

Yin Xun, who was huddled in the corner, straightened up suddenly, and said, "Bai Yuehu is back."

Lu Qingjiu showed surprise, he didn't expect Bai Yuehu to come back so soon, he looked out again, and sure enough, he saw Bai Yuehu's figure in the rain.

Bai Yuehu stood outside the door, beckoning to Lu Qingjiu lightly, as if signaling him to go out.

"Are you going out?" Yin Xun was a little uneasy, "It seems... dangerous outside."

"It's okay." Lu Qingjiu said, "Bai Yuehu is here."

Yin Xun hesitated to speak when he heard that, but finally said nothing, and Lu Qingjiu opened the door and went out.What Lu Qingjiu said actually made sense, after all, if someone really wanted to hurt Lu Qingjiu, only Bai Yuehu could protect him.

As for himself, he is just a weak mountain god.

Seeing Lu Qingjiu go out, Yin Xun showed a wry smile.

Lu Qingjiu walked into the yard, it was still raining, but the rain fell on Lu Qingjiu but was bounced away by an invisible force. Bai Yuehu stood at the gate of the yard, his black eyes drowned in the night, making the rain fall. Some people couldn't see clearly, he watched Lu Qingjiu's footsteps stop in front of him, and then stretched out his hand to Lu Qingjiu: "Come with me."

Lu Qingjiu nodded, and held Bai Yuehu's palm.

Then there was a whirlwind, Lu Qingjiu felt his body fly up with Bai Yuehu, and when Bai Yuehu stopped again, a familiar scene appeared in front of his eyes - a huge deep pit.

This deep pit was the place where Bai Yuehu brought Lu Qingjiu and Yin Xun here when he was telling horror stories, but compared to before, the deep pit in front of him has undergone a huge change.

On the edge of the deep pit, a huge hole was knocked out, and the giant dragon trapped inside disappeared, leaving only a pool of foul-smelling mud.

"He escaped." Bai Yuehu said, "Maybe he will come looking for you."

"Looking for me?" Lu Qingjiu was a little shocked, "Why did he come looking for me? Could it be that he wants to eat me too?" Although Bai Yuehu said that the dragon didn't eat his parents, this is Bai Yue after all. The words of Fox's family, and if he hadn't done this, why didn't he justify his cruel punishment?

It was still raining around, and the crackling rain blurred Bai Yuehu's voice. I don't know if it was Lu Qingjiu's illusion, but he could hear a hint of pity from Bai Yuehu's tone: "I just guessed that way. ……after all……"

Lu Qingjiu said: "After all what?"

Bai Yuehu said: "Nothing."

Lu Qingjiu sensed that Bai Yuehu was obviously hiding something from himself, so he said, "Yuehu, is there anything you didn't tell me?"

Bai Yuehu looked back at Lu Qingjiu, and admitted it frankly: "Yes." He paused for a moment, then whispered, "I don't know how to tell you."

Lu Qingjiu sighed: "This dragon is powerful, right?" Trapped in such a pit, and had his eyes gouged out, but even so, he escaped from the pit.

"Of course it's very powerful." Bai Yuehu said, "He was trapped inside before, and it was only because he didn't want to come out."

Lu Qingjiu: "Don't want to?"

Bai Yuehu: "He thinks he is wrong."

Lu Qingjiu: "Wrong? He was imprisoned because he ate my parents..." When he said this, he was a little sad, "Why did he do this?" He thought of the scene of holding a funeral for his parents back then. At that time, he was still in college, but he was only a half-grown child. It was the death of his parents that made him mature quickly, but if he had a choice, he would rather not grow up like this.

Bai Yuehu hesitated to speak, but finally said nothing, just stretched out his hand, and gently pressed Lu Qingjiu's shoulder.

Lu Qingjiu said: "Does he want to eat me again now?"

Bai Yuehu: "I don't know."

Lu Qingjiu smiled wryly: "The glow of the sky just now..."

Bai Yuehu said: "Xiaguang is just to attract my attention and give him a chance to escape." He sighed again, "If he wants to leave, there is always a way."

Lu Qingjiu lowered his eyes: "What can I do?"

Bai Yuehu: "Don't be afraid, I will definitely protect you."

Lu Qingjiu felt frustrated: "But I'm supposed to protect you, shouldn't I? What does this kind of protection mean? I'm just an ordinary human being, and I can't help you even by watching you get hurt."

"No." Bai Yuehu's voice softened, "You have power that you don't know."

Lu Qingjiu: "Unknown power?"

Bai Yuehu said: "Yes." But I hope you will never know, he looked at Lu Qingjiu's sad eyes, and silently added this sentence in his heart.

Lu Qingjiu only took Bai Yuehu's words as a perfunctory comfort, forced a smile, and stopped talking.

Bai Yuehu seldom communicated with people, and now seeing Lu Qingjiu's forced smile, although he felt a little uncomfortable, he didn't know how to comfort him, so in the end he could only turn his head to the side, and put a hair on the top of Lu Qingjiu's hair. Soothing kisses.

Lu Qingjiu looked at the deep pit in front of him and fell silent.

Bai Yuehu said: "Let's go back."

Lu Qingjiu nodded.

So Bai Yuehu brought Lu Qingjiu home again. Lu Qingjiu was in a mess, and he didn't say hello to Yin Xun when he got home, so he went back to his room to rest alone.

Yin Xun looked at Lu Qingjiu's distraught appearance, and boldly asked Bai Yuehu what happened.

"The imprisoned dragon escaped." Bai Yuehu said calmly, "Maybe he will come to find Lu Qingjiu."

"What???" Yin Xun showed disbelief, "Escaped? How could he escape!" Thinking that his friend's life might be coveted by the powerful Dragon Clan, he became nervous, "Sake, Sake isn't dangerous!"

Bai Yuehu: "I'm here."

Yin Xundao: "I know...but..."

"No but." Bai Yuehu interrupted Yin Xun violently, "As long as I live for one day, I will protect Lu Qingjiu for one day."

Yin Xun gritted his teeth: "But can you promise to stay by Lu Qingjiu's side forever?"

Bai Yuehu said coldly: "Why not?"

Yin Xun was dumbfounded, he could see that Bai Yuehu meant what he said.

"It's getting late, you should go back to continue the incense." Bai Yuehu concluded their conversation.

It was still pouring rain outside, and Yin Xun chose to leave. He didn't have an umbrella, and he couldn't block the rain, so he walked back home step by step in such a state of embarrassment.The village was as quiet as a tomb. Yin Xun opened the door of his house, and saw burning incense candles and countless memorial tablets.

Yin Xun looked at the memorial tablet with a smile on his face, but this smile was uglier than crying.

It rained heavily all night, as if to wash away all the colors of the world.

Lu Qingjiu sat in his bedroom, looking at the black scales covered with scars.This is probably the giant dragon imprisoned in the deep pit, so what kind of mood did his grandma leave the scales behind?

The grandfather who has never been mentioned, could it be that dragon?But if this is the case, why did he devour his own child, causing an irreparable tragedy?

Lu Qingjiu couldn't figure it out, and no one could give him an answer.

He looked up from the window, only to see the darkness shrouded in rain, and the heavy rain seemed to never stop, just like the day his parents died - a huge mountain collapsed, and human beings were so small in it, even Finding a dead body has become a luxury.

Lu Qingjiu felt a severe tightness in his chest, so he put the scales into his notebook and put them in his bedside table.The wooden box with the word lock was locked again, and it should only be opened on the birthday.Fortunately, the things in the wooden box have been taken out.

At least after three o'clock in the morning, the insomniac Lu Qingjiu barely fell asleep, but the quality of sleep was very poor, and he even dreamed of the imprisoned dragon.

The dragon's horns were broken, but the eyes were still there, a pair of beautiful black eyes.With a sad expression in his black eyes, he stared at Lu Qingjiu, as if he was looking at someone else through him.

"Who are you?" Lu Qingjiu in the dream couldn't help asking.

The black dragon opened its mouth, revealing half of its tongue.

Lu Qingjiu said: "You...can't talk?"

Black Dragon nodded.

"Why did I dream of you? Are you trying to tell me something?" The dream and reality became blurred, and Lu Qingjiu couldn't even figure out whether he was awake or dreaming.

The black dragon remained silent, his eyes even more sad, he gently rubbed Lu Qingjiu's arm with the broken dragon horn, his movements were very light, as if he was afraid of scaring Lu Qingjiu.

Lu Qingjiu felt a pain in his heart, and somehow remembered Bai Yuehu. If he guessed correctly, the prototype of Bai Yuehu should also be the black dragon in front of him. If Bai Yuehu became like this, he would not even dare to go Thinking about it makes my chest tight.

Dragon, such a proud creature, how could they be willing to let them become the incomplete appearance in front of them, they should be a myth of proudly flying in the sky, even if they die, they should be magnificent.

"I don't understand what you want to say." Lu Qingjiu said, "I..." He still wanted to say something, but everything in front of him suddenly disappeared.He woke up from the dream and saw Bai Yuehu's worried expression.

"You're having a nightmare." Bai Yuehu said.

Lu Qingjiu blinked his eyes before realizing that his whole body was terribly cold, and his forehead was covered with cold sweat. He whispered, "I dreamed about a black dragon."

Bai Yuehu looked at Lu Qingjiu quietly, without interrupting.

"His horn is broken, and his tongue is gone." Lu Qingjiu said, "It looks so miserable." He wanted to tell Bai Yuehu that he was fine with a smile.

But Bai Yuehu said: "Stop laughing."

Lu Qingjiu was dumbfounded.

"If you don't want to laugh, don't laugh." Bai Yuehu stretched out his arms to hug Lu Qingjiu, his warm body brought warmth to the already stiff Lu Qingjiu, "It doesn't matter what expression you make."

Lu Qingjiu let out a breath and closed his eyes: "I'm a little tired."

Bai Yuehu said: "Sleep when you're tired, I'm here."

The two slept on the same bed, and the person next to him hugged him tightly, making him feel like a baby in the warm amniotic fluid.Lu Qingjiu closed his eyes again, and quickly fell asleep. This time, he didn't dream again, and he didn't see the black dragon with sad eyes again.

When I woke up the next morning, the rain outside had stopped, the sun was hanging in the blue sky, and it was a warm spring scene again.

The Bai Yuehu beside her was nowhere to be seen, perhaps she had already gone to plant vegetables.

This seemed to be just an ordinary morning that couldn't be more ordinary. Yesterday's heavy rain and vision seemed to be just a weird dream.

It would be fine if all that was really just a dream. Lu Qingjiu sat up, and saw Yin Xun poking his head in from the door. Yin Xun grinned at him, showing his cute canine teeth, smiling brightly like a flower. Sunflower chasing the sun: "Jiu'er, good morning."

"Okay." Lu Qingjiu also laughed. He was infected by Yin Xun's smile, and after sorting out his emotions, he quickly cheered up, "What do you want to eat?"

Yin Xun said: "Anything is fine, but I kind of want to eat beef rice noodles."

"Then eat rice noodles." Lu Qingjiu said, "Go to the field and pick some fresh vegetables."

"Okay." Yin Xun replied with a smile.

An ordinary day begins with an ordinary morning.

The author has something to say: Bai Yuehu: Don't be sad, let's have something delicious.

Lu Qingjiu: Do you know how to cook?

Bai Yuehu: Do you want Yin Xun to eat cold salad?

Lu Qingjiu: ...Try it?

Yin Xun: I beg you two to be one person, woo woo woo
