Master, stay away from me

A few days later, the immortal Liuli, who was said to be "heartbroken", flew among the high mountains.He was in such a hurry that he had no time to take a look.When he finally reached the place, he was amazed by what he saw.Although the mountains here are closed, the paddy fields are layered on top of each other in a well-arranged pattern, such as ingenious workmanship and inlaid mountains.The surrounding shades of green reflect the water surface, like a lake curtain.

Liu Li fell into the forest, looked up and saw a blue sparrow standing on a branch.The blue sparrow turned somewhere and nodded up and down.

Immortal Chang looked along, and saw a farmhouse facing the mirror and water with its back facing the sky.The man was dressed in rough clothes and a big straw hat on his head.The trousers were rolled up, and the man's feet were also soaked in the water. He planted the seedlings deftly in his hands, and he erected one with a click, neatly.Liuli's eyesight is good, and he can see that he is slender, but the exposed skin is soaked in muddy water, he can't see clearly, and he is not sure.

"That is……?"

He asked the blue bird, and the blue bird turned his head and flew away.

"..." It has a demonic aura on it, you should understand it, right?

Liu Li stopped looking at the bird demon, and focused on the farmer who planted rice seedlings.He never raised his body, and the big straw hat hid his face.He just backed away little by little, always bent over.

Liu Li couldn't wait, so he still had to go and have a look.

Immortal Chang hides his figure and can jump to the edge of the field in one step.He was standing in a place where there was no water and stood sideways, just as the man straightened up and wiped sweat with the clothes on his shoulders...

Short hair, flat chest, resolute face.

man.

No.

Liu Li clenched his fists tightly and held back his breath.

Silly.

He instantly enveloped the village with spiritual power, but where would Ji Wunian be?Although the Demon Emperor would mobilize the little demons to search for them, how could such a smart person as Wu Nian be found so easily?

Since she was able to deceive everyone as Ling Zhou and Jiang Xiao, it must be very difficult to be found...

It's okay, it's okay, there are no corpses anyway, just look slowly...

Liu Li pursed his lips and raised his sword.The terraced fields in the air are still beautiful, and the mountain people working in the fields seem to have a kind of simplicity of the land.Liu Li looked at the beautiful scenery from the best angle, but he was not in the mood...

Miss her...

Miss her...

No thought...?

Liu Li's eyes fell on a certain place, where there was also a man in coarse linen clothes and a big straw hat.The man's feet were in the mud, and his sleeves and trousers were rolled up.She holds a handful of seedlings in one hand and shakes them in the air with the other.Liuli could see that the hand was dirty, just a little bit cleaner than her smiling face...

"No thoughts!?"

Liu Li dashed away and grabbed the opponent's shoulder, "You! It's really you!?"

The opponent's shoulders shrank from his pinch, and the seedling in his hand didn't know where to swing it.Ji Wunian's hat was pushed off by him, and the sun dazzled his eyes, "Senior brother, senior brother, let me go...it hurts..."

"Ah..." Liu Li hurriedly let go of her, and took a few steps back, but he still didn't dare to let go of his hand, and looked her up and down with his eyes, "You...you really Wu Nian? Are you okay!?"

"...It's okay." Ji Wunian moved his shoulders, but looked at Liuli amusedly, "Brother, are you okay?"

"Ah?" Liu Li didn't know what she was talking about until he followed her gaze and looked down at himself.

His boots had sunk into the mud, his wide sleeves scooped up water, and his robe was covered in gray spots, some of which reached his chest.What was even more frightening was that there were still a few overturned green plants at his feet, which frightened him and hurried to the side again, only to end up falling a few more...

"This……"

"Oh, it's okay," Ji Wunian shook the seedlings in his hand, and picked up the straw hat that fell into the ground.She looked at the dripping muddy water, and pointed to the edge of the field with the seedlings in her other hand, "Let's go up first and then talk about it?"

The calm junior sister made the senior brother unable to show the excitement of regaining what was lost, so he could only walk to the dry land obediently.The soaked wide sleeves were sloppy and drooped with muddy water.Liu Li looked around and felt that he should cast a purification spell to clean himself up.But Ji Wunian in the field was still dirty, and he didn't care at all as he walked over step by step.Holding the straw hat in one hand and the unfinished seedlings in the other, she looked at Liu Li and smiled, "Brother, why don't you clean yourself up?"

As soon as she said this, Liu Li used a cleansing mantra to get rid of the mud all over her body.However, Ji Wunian who came over at this time stepped on the solid ground, leaving a muddy footprint.

Liu Li looked around, "Where are your shoes?"

Ji Wunian also stepped on the other foot, and said with a smile, "No clothes."

"..." Not wearing it?

Liu Li was startled, but Ji Wunian had already shaken the seedlings and pointed him to a room, "It's very close, it's okay."

After she finished speaking, she threw the straw hat and seedlings aside, and directly scooped up water from the rice field to wash off the mud on her hands and feet.Her casual appearance seems to have really lived here for a long time.Liu Li couldn't help but look at her feet in contact with the ground.She was originally very white, but after stepping on the dry sand, she turned yellow and gray again.Just as Liu Li was about to speak, he suddenly heard a sentence from above, "A Lian, let's talk."

"Hey!" Ji Wunian replied loudly, "Here we come!"

Ji Wunian's voice seemed to rise from the dantian, resounding back in the mountains.Liu Li didn't quite hear Ji Wunian's loud voice, so he looked along where she was walking.There is a hut above the field ridge, and there is still smoke in the house, but there is no one from his current position...

"Wu Nian." Liu Li chased after him, "You..."

"Brother, don't be in a hurry," Ji Wunian said with a smile, "at least tell the aunt."

"……"What's the meaning?

Liu Li didn't understand what kind of medicine she was selling, so he could only follow quickly.The distance from the field to the courtyard is really not far, and Liu Li has already entered the door before he started to babble.Only then did he see a little old lady with a protruding back coming out of a certain room.Her face was a little sunken, probably because she had lost all her teeth, which made her look fierce.She held a bowl in one hand and chopsticks in the other, she didn't say much when she saw Ji Wunian, moved the chopsticks into the room, and walked tremblingly into the yard again.

Her feet were bent outwards, and she moved forward again, her back arched like she was carrying a big bag.She would sway from side to side when she walked like this, but her hands were steady, and she didn't spill a drop of soup when she walked to another room.

Liu Li looked at her, feeling a little strange, not knowing what to say.

"Brother, wait for me." Ji Wunian said, then turned around and walked into the kitchen.When she came out, she brought two big bowls of noodles and two sets of chopsticks. When she passed by Liuli, she raised her chin, "Let's go out and eat."

Liuli can only follow.

She walked to the big tree outside the yard, where there was shadow and a big rock.

"Senior brother, sit here," she said, and handed Liu Li a bowl of noodles in her hand, and after he took it, she went to the root of the tree and sat down casually.

Liuli held the noodles in his right hand, but he was still standing.He looked down at Ji Wunian, but the other party had already picked up the chopsticks and seemed to be planning to start eating.Probably because he suddenly realized that this is not good, Ji Wunian stretched out his hand holding the chopsticks and shook it towards Liuli, "Senior brother, please sit down first, and I will talk to you while eating, is that okay?"

Liu Li sat down, the bowl of noodles was still in his hands, on his lap.

Ji Wunian smiled, just about to tell him to eat, but suddenly noticed Liu Li's left arm hanging on the side.She stopped talking for a moment, and put the bowl in her hand aside.Patting his clothes to stand up, Ji Wunian told Liuli to wait a while, and ran into the house by himself.

Liu Li looked at her back, observing the embarrassment he had never seen on Ji Wunian.With shabby clothes, bare arms and bare feet, Ji Wunian who ran over even had messy hair.But she was still smiling when she turned into the yard, as if she was light all over.Liu Li couldn't understand, but he opened his mouth and couldn't speak.

He could only lower his head and see the incomplete self in the clear soup and water, with a silly face and a slight frown between his brows.His junior sister didn't know what was wrong, it seemed to become casual, but it seemed to go away.

When he came out, Ji Wunian held the small table with one hand and the low stool with the other.Liu Li stood up and wanted to help her, but told her to quicken her pace.The brother noticed that she was wearing a pair of straw sandals, didn't say anything, just watched her arrange the tables and chairs, and then dragged himself to make a stool.

Liuli is worse than obedience, but after sitting down, he still looks at Ji Wunian.

A certain person sat on a rock, picked up the bowl and smacked his face first.The noodles and juice slap each other, and the sound seems to express the natural delicacy.

Liu Li still had no appetite, just looked at her.

It is now near noon, and the mountains and forests are often bright and quiet.For a moment, the only sound in Liuli's ears was the sound of her eating noodles, but when she looked closely, she didn't eat much.

I don't know how long it will take for this bowl to go down, Rao Liuli is a little bit impatient, "Wu Nian..."

As soon as the chopsticks were mentioned, Ji Wunian reached out to stop his words.She didn't finish talking at the moment, neither in nor out, but she couldn't answer.She quickly bit it off and chewed a few more mouthfuls, and said after swallowing, "Senior brother, do you want to ask me why I am here?"

This is a natural question.Liuli nodded.

Ji Wunian raised his hand and smiled back, "I'm here because I want to eat noodles."

...What's the answer?

Liu Li frowned, "Wu Nian you..."

"I didn't lie to you," Ji Wunian sat low, looking up at him now.However, she still smiled, very relaxed and comfortable, "I really came here to eat noodles."

"..." Liu Li took a deep breath, but still tapped the table with his fingertips, "Then what's so special about this side? Is it worth jumping off a cliff to eat?"

Ji Wunian saw the bones on the back of his hand protruding from his patience. In fact, there was a pause in his voice, but it finally turned into a smile.She lowered her head, looked at her half-eaten bowl of noodles, and said softly, "Every time I feel like I don't want to continue, I will come to eat noodles..."

"Continue?" Liu Li couldn't understand, "Continue with what?"

"Continue..." Ji Wunian thought for a while, "Continue to move forward?"

Why is it a question?

Liu Li still frowned, but did not refute.He vaguely realized that Ji Wunian was different at this time, she was no longer pretending, she was really talking about her mind.

It's just that this thought made many twists and turns, and suddenly jumped to the aunt I just met.

"Did you see that aunt just now?" Ji Wunian smiled, although it was a question, she would actually answer by herself, "It's not right to say it's aunt, she's younger than me." She didn't look at Liuli, and continued Said, "The aunt's surname is Ge, and her name is Ge Fen. She was sold from the south. Don't look at her like that, but she is actually less than fifty. She has had her feet bound since she was a child. She originally wanted to sell it to the government to make more money." , but didn’t want her parents to be short of money one year, so they sold it directly to other people. After going around, she was bought by a mountain villager here with three mountain rabbits. She was only 15 years old at that time..." Ji Wu Nian paused, as if thinking of someone, mixed the noodles with chopsticks, and continued, "After coming in, my husband's family always beat her, knocked out all her teeth, almost blinded her eyes, and asked her to do a lot of things. Heavy farm work, slowly... Her back became like that... And that kind of health is not good for childbirth. Four or five children were either stillborn or died, and they didn't grow up anyway. Her husband's family was beaten because of this. She, she won’t be able to get pregnant in the future..." She smiled, unable to say whether it was ironic or not, "She also wanted to run, but she couldn't run out of this mountainous place, and she would be beaten when she was caught. Broken legs...the more times she did it, the more her legs were bent...and she couldn't run anymore."

She spoke quietly, which seemed to be louder than the breeze.The caress of the leaves rang in his ears, Ji Wunian looked up and saw the broken light in the leaves.She raised her head and continued, "Later, her husband's family went into the mountains to look for goods, and accidentally slipped and died. It should have been a good thing, but she realized that she couldn't get out even so. And she was tortured like this, Not knowing the language, everyone in this village treats her like a monster and doesn't want to get close to her... As time passes, she becomes a strange old lady who lives alone, and can be a ghost story for children..."

She talked and laughed, took a breath and lowered her head to look at Liuli again.His senior brother frowned slightly because of this tragic story, and Ji Wunian took the opportunity to ask, "Senior brother, do you think she will become like this...why?"

"..." Liu Li didn't know why she asked, but she still lowered her head and thought for a while, "Since her parents..."

"It's because of me."

Liuli was interrupted by an answer she hadn't thought of, looking at her with doubts in his eyes, "What?"

"I said, she did this all because of me." Ji Wunian smiled when she said this, and put her face on the stone space, patted her knees and stood up.Knowing that six separates will be strange, she explained to herself, "I let her become like this."

"What do you mean?" Liuli couldn't understand anymore, "Wu Nian, you knew her before?"

"... I guess we know each other." Ji Wunian smiled, "But when she was taken away by Ren Yazi, I didn't save her."

"..." Liu Li pursed his lips, softened his brows and eyes, "Wu Nian, you didn't know that you would become like this...you..."

Ji Wunian smiled and shook his head.

Liu Li didn't know what he meant, but his heart seemed to be imprisoned by some kind of restraint, and he couldn't say anything at once.

"...she is a lock I gave myself, a proof I deliberately left..." Ji Wunian lowered his head and stretched out his hands, "I want to know...after going through all this, how can a person still be Will there be kindness..."

Would you still want to help?Don't you still have hatred for this world?

Is it still worth it?

Ji Wunian wanted an answer, so he let it go and sacrificed.

So Gefen is destined to suffer all kinds of hardships here, just because Ji Wunian wants to do so.

From a certain point of view, she is as cruel as Qiu Hai, holding other people's fate as a hand.

she is bad.She is very selfish.She is ruthless.

However, even if she is like this, Gefen, who has suffered so much, is willing to give her a bowl of noodles.

"Brother..."

She called, but didn't look at Liuli.

Her gaze went far away and fell on the dense forests and the vast world, where birds, animals, and thousands of creatures live.They kill each other, struggle to survive, intrigue, insidious and cunning.Among them, there are many arrogant people who despise her, some evil people who insult her, some greedy people who covet her, and some weak people who betray her, but none of them can match the bowl of plain noodles in her hand, or the ray of kindness in suffering. read.

"This world, don't let me down."

Don't let her down, so she can treat with gentleness; don't let her down, so she can stay together with all your heart.For some reason, Liu Li thought of a deep meaning, he was just about to speak...

"Shhhhh."

Immortal Liuli really couldn't figure out how hungry Ji Wunian was, and how he could just gobble it up like that.He forgot everything he wanted to say, except for one sentence, "Eat slowly..."

Ji Wunian ignored him, and gulped down the soup all at once.When she put down the bowl, she still had her eyes closed, and it took her a long time to let out a "ha" breath.

What followed was the brightness in her eyes, just like the shining Ji Family Immortal in the past.She put the bowl on the table and said with a bright smile, "Senior brother, you have to finish your noodles. Farming here is not easy, and you can't waste food!" She got up and went to the field again without waiting for her brother to respond, " I'm going to plant the remaining seedlings, and I'll go back with you when I'm done!"

His junior sister was vigorous and resolute, and Liu Li was still a little dazed.When he came back to his senses, Ji Wunian had already planted rice seedlings again.And he himself was sitting stupidly facing the bowl of noodles, and there was an empty bowl in front of him...

He looked at the noodles, looked at Ji Wunian, and finally picked up the chopsticks and ate the noodles.

Forget it, food should not be wasted...

"puff!"

A certain person looked at his elder brother from the corner of his eye, and was a little glad that he had almost swallowed his brain just now.Although this world is indeed worthy, Ge Fen's noodles are really unpalatable to a certain extent.Ji Wunian stayed here for a long time, most of the time she came to cook.It was also because Senior Brother Liuli was unlucky that she returned the kitchen just as she wanted to finish it quickly today.

She had thought about it, and when all the fields here were planted, she would go out to contact the imperial court and build a road into the mountain.

At that time, people will flow, and they will no longer be so imprisoned, Geffen's fate will also change, and next time...

Ji Wunian planted a shiny green seedling.

Next time, try to save her.
