Qin Shen's Inn
Chapter 62
Saturday, NO.16 of December, is suitable for praying, offering sacrifices, making alliances, and avoiding fights and brawls... He must be reading a fake perpetual calendar.
Qin Shen quit the software, turned over and got off the bed, stood on the ground and stretched. It was a rare late sleep, and it felt really comfortable to wake up naturally after sleeping.
He pulled on his slippers and went out with his mobile phone. When he passed by Diu Diu's room, he opened the door and took a look. The child had already gotten up and went out. A small milk cat was sleeping in a ball on the soft quilt in a rare way. He smiled deeply, "Huhuhu~", it's because he was snoring from sleep.
After closing the door and going to the door to change shoes, Qin Shen walked out. Outside, the wine jar baby greeted Qin Shen energetically, "Morning Boss Naidi."
"Morning, baby." This wine jar, his name is baby.
"Boss, you are still handsome today. Just looking at him, he will be drunk."
"Haha, you don't need to flatter me every day."
"That's not true." The baby's voice was very serious, and a serious facial expression appeared on the wine jar, "Baby is telling the truth."
Qin Shen was pleased, who wouldn't listen to good things, haha. "How about the rice wine you made this time?"
"Boss Naidi, when you come to see the baby in the afternoon, you can drink delicious rice wine, which is very, very delicious, and the wine can also be used to make rice balls." The baby in the wine jar had an intoxicated face, "Wow, use green rice The rice wine made is so good that everyone will get drunk."
"Then get drunk. I went to the kitchen to find something to eat. I didn't have breakfast. I'm starving to death."
"Go, go, my most handsome boss, it is the baby's greatest blessing to see you every day."
Qin Shen shook off the goosebumps all over his body, he was tired of hearing too many good things.
The green japonica rice was planted with a gift from the Millet Kingdom. The place where it was planted was the two-acre vacant land in the courtyard on the "upper floor" of the inn. , the hoe is broken.
Large areas of plants on the grassland are dry and desolate at first glance.
The inn, guarded by the barrier left by the Emperor of Heaven, was not affected by the cold wind at the intersection of the Three Realms, and was still as warm as spring.Huang Sanwei, an employee of the inn, and Guo Yue, a temporary worker, could not stay idle, so they cleaned up the two acres of open space in the yard to plant grains, and the green japonica rice was planted during this period.
Its growth period is very short and it does not choose a place, but like wild rice that has not been domesticated, the ears of rice produced are very small, and the husk has a high rate of hollowness. Compared with the current high-quality rice, it is too far behind.
Rare things are more expensive, no wonder they became the tribute rice of the millet kingdom.
The taste of the new rice is very good. It tastes fragrant and glutinous. The taste is between japonica rice and glutinous rice.Qin Shen decided to expand the planting area of green japonica rice in the spring of the coming year, so that the inn would use it for rice in the future.
Qin Shen took out [-] catties of Japonica rice and ordinary glutinous rice to make rice wine, which was extravagant. The recipe used was very simple, and a search on the Internet would turn up a lot of them.
I don't know if the addition of green japonica rice will bring joyful changes to the ordinary rice wine.
The answer should be yes.
Qin Shen went into the kitchen and saw Qiu Baocheng cleaning the old-fashioned stove.
"Brother Baocheng, what delicious food did you make for breakfast?" Qin Shen rubbed his stomach, growling with hunger.
Qiu Baocheng stood up straight with a rag in his hand, pointed to the rice cooker and said to Qin Shen: "Today, three tails fished out a big fish with a net. I just sliced the fish, and I eat fish porridge in the morning."
Qin Shen had already opened the lid of the pot, and a hot air wrapped in fragrance rushed towards his face. When the heat dissipated, he saw the porridge. The white and tender fish fillets were wrapped in porridge rice, and the green green onion added color.He took a small spoon and dug it out. He saw white and slightly transparent particles mixed in the rice grains, and asked, "What is the white thing inside? It doesn't look like sago."
"Oh, that one, I made small balls with tapioca flour, you can call them pearls. If you cook them in porridge, the taste will be softer than those in milk tea. Try it and see how it feels."
It was the first time for Qin Shen to eat this kind of porridge, pearl fish porridge?What an amazing match.Putting the spoon full of porridge into his mouth, Qin Shen raised his eyebrows, and he couldn't speak smoothly with the porridge in his mouth, "It's so fresh and delicious."
He didn't fish out the fish fillets with this spoon, only the pearls and porridge rice, the taste is very good, the aroma of the fish is completely absorbed by the porridge rice, the porridge doesn't seem to be boiled until it blooms, but it melts when you put it in your mouth up.The pearls enrich the texture of the fish porridge. It is not as hard as the black pearls in milk tea. It tastes like glutinous rice, very soft and glutinous.
Qin Shen quickly filled a large bowl of porridge for himself, found white pepper and sprinkled a small poke on the porridge, which could increase the mouth-numbing taste a little.
Such a bowl of fish porridge does not need any side dishes to accompany the porridge, just porridge is enough.
Walking outside with the porridge in hand, Qin Shen moved his mouth to the side of the bowl to suck the porridge. The fish fillet porridge was thick, and he got up late, and the rice grains absorbed the little soup, making it even more fragrant and thick.
Qin Shen sighed, "There have been no guests coming recently."
The ferry boat came in the middle, and a group of guests who were going to the ghost world came. The inn was lively for a while, and when the group of guests left, it returned to calm.
Datougui told Qin Shen that the intersection of the Three Realms is getting colder and colder, and the surface of the Santu River is about to freeze. This business trip is over and he will not come to the shore again until the river surface thaws and resumes its flow.
As a result, the business of the inn will be even more scarce in the future.
Holding a small round embroidery frame, Liu Niang shrugged her shoulders nonchalantly, "When you get busy, you will miss the leisure you have now."
Qin Shen looked at her curiously, "My mother also said the same thing. If the guests who go to the demon world don't come, and the ferry doesn't dock, it's impossible for the sky to come and go. Where did the guests come from?"
Liu Niang smiled and said nothing.
Qin Shen continued to drink his porridge, "Okay, you don't want to tell me, I will know when the guests come. Haha, when the guests come, you will get money. Lao Zhang cleared all the things in the warehouse, and the account Lots of extra zeros."
The thousand-year-old chamber pot was actually used by a certain celebrity in history. There is an emblem on the inner side of the chamber caliber, and the inscription on the bottom is badly worn and Qin Shen can't understand. Blank to that person.
Qin Shen also had nothing to say.
It can only be said to be valuable, even if it is exchanged for three melons and two dates, it is still money.
He drank the porridge and took it back to the kitchen to wash it off. He came out shaking his wet hands. He was amazed by Liu Niang's speed. The inside of the embroidery frame was just blurred. He turned around and went in for a while. In a short period of time, most of the embroidery has been embroidered, and the flowers and trees on the bank and a colorful bird in the water are lifelike.
"Liu Niang, you are so fast." Qin Shen praised.
Liu Niang stopped her needlework, and took the embroidery frame away to appreciate it, "What's the speed, I haven't exerted any strength yet."
Qin Shen nodded, monsters must be different, and they cannot be limited by human eyes.Looking at the mandarin ducks embroidered by Liu Niang, Qin Shen remembered a veil that his own father asked the housekeeper to take from the boat and gave them. This veil is now kept by his mother. He remembered that there was a pattern embroidered on the corner of the veil— —It looks like everything, except mandarin ducks that don’t look like mandarin ducks.
Liu Niang also chatted with Qin Shen about Qin Jing's craftsmanship, "I taught your mother's embroidery, but it's a pity that she procrastinated for several years and didn't graduate. Later, I told your mother that you were not born with embroidery skills. The material for the needle. Your mother got angry and went straight to the health school after school to get another needle."
"..." It turns out that there is a reason why my mother became a nurse.
Liu Niang continued to embroider, the embroidery needles were flying in her hands, and after a while, there was another mandarin duck next to the embroidered mandarin duck.
"Don't mandarin ducks swim together, one male and one female? The two you embroidered are of colorful feathers, that's not right." Qin Shen pointed out a mistake in Liu Niang's embroidery drawing seriously.
Liu Niang scolded, "The pillowcase embroidered for you and Mr. Zhang, do you want a male and a female?"
"……Oh"
When is it time for mandarin mandarin mandarin and mandarin mandarin ducks to hug each other, the branches on the moon are ashamed every night.
One male and one female or something, forget it.
Under Liu Niang's meaningful eyes, Qin Shen almost fled to the courtyard with hands and feet, where he saw Zhang Tenghai and Diudiu.
The two of them squatted in the ground next to each other, holding flower shovels in their hands. Obviously, they did not come to farm the land, but to experience life==.
Qin Shen walked over, folded his arms and looked down at their father and son, "What are you doing?"
Diudiu raised his head, looked at his father with bright eyes, and shared with him the fruits of his one-morning labor, "Dad, my father and I planted strawberries."
"Isn't there a circle of strawberries planted along the base of the wall on the 'upper floor'?"
Diudiu patted the soil with a small shovel and insisted, "It's not the same."
Qin Shen raised his trouser legs and squatted down, "What's the difference?"
"I planted this with my own hands. It must taste different from that of my father's."
Qin Shen stretched out his hand to wipe off the dirt that stuck to his son's tender cheeks at some point, "It must be different, it must be more fragrant and sweet."
Qin Shen raised his fingertips to look, but he didn't wipe off the muddy spots on his son's face, instead they changed from the size of fifty cents to one dollar.The black mud dots were rubbed open and became larger and lighter in color to gray, making the skin fairer and smoother. Qin Shen smiled "hehe" and nodded his small nose with puzzled eyes, " But why do you plant it next to leeks, the taste of leeks is so strong."
"But Daddy said this is an onion." Diudiu looked at the neighbor in front of a row of newly planted strawberries. The roots were green and the leaves were straight and flat. "It seems to be really a leek."
Zhang Tenghai rubbed his nose, don't blame him for not being able to tell the difference between leeks and shallots, he only really touched the fields after he came to the inn, at first glance, the onions and leeks looked the same in his eyes.
Qin Shen pursed his lips and sniggered, not wanting to discredit Cheng Hai in front of Diu Diu. He coughed twice to calm down his emotions, and said solemnly: "Leeks taste heavy, and it won't affect strawberries. Don't use them, baby." Don't worry, the strawberries you grow will still be very sweet."
Diudiu let go of the small worries in his heart, nodded vigorously, and decided to trust his father.
Huang Sanwei, who was weeding more than ten steps away, whispered to Wang Lebin suspiciously: "It doesn't have any influence."
Boss Qin himself is not proficient in farming, because he likes delicious food, and it is enough to distinguish between various vegetables and fruits, so there is no need to ask too much of him.
Qin Shen accompanied Zhang Tenghai and Diudiu to plant all the strawberry seedlings, and then went to wash their hands together. In the middle of Diudiu, he entered the room and saw that Dabai was still sleeping. He closed the door lightly, took homework and went to Do your homework by the window in the lobby.
Accompanied by Zhang Tenghai, this is one of the parent-child activities he enjoys most.
Diu Diu has good academic performance and can easily complete the homework assigned by the teacher.Diudiu also joined the mathematics interest group run by the school. The teachers in the interest group would teach the children Olympiad questions. The sea comes in handy.
Seen by the child's adoring eyes, Zhang Tenghai felt even more proud than he had overcome the difficult problems in the world of mathematics.
Qin Shen doesn't have the patience to teach children. He belongs to the kind who can learn by himself and learns very well, but he can't teach others or impart experience. It's easy for him to teach ordinary topics in his hands. become extremely complicated.
The sunlight coming in through the glass was warm and warm. At first, Qin Shen propped his head on his hands and looked at Zhang Tenghai and Diudiu, who were leaning against each other. Then he yawned, his head fell on his big arms, and he looked at them half on his stomach. .The other hand that can move flexibly picked up the juicy strawberries on the plate and threw them into his mouth. They were full of water, sweet and sour, and he liked the crunch of strawberry seeds when they were chewed by his teeth.
After eating too many strawberries, Qin Shen burped and said lazily, "I burped, I seem to feel the smell of mutton."
"Dad, you ate so many strawberries, shouldn't you burp and smell of strawberries?" Diudiu asked doubtfully while holding the pen.
Zhang Chenghai took a strawberry to Diudiu and said, "Because your father wants to eat mutton."
"Tonic in winter, isn't it better to eat mutton. My dad cooks a big pot of goat meat every year, divides them into bowls and puts them in bowls. You can put cabbage, and a simple meal will become very delicious because of this bowl of mutton." The more he said, the more Qin Shen wanted to eat it, and he stood up decisively, "I don't know why Dad hasn't started this year. I made it by myself, I called and asked. Anyway, the inn is not busy, so I went to buy two goats and came back. I killed and made it myself. I built a stove with bricks in the yard, put a big iron pot on it, and used firewood. Cook it all afternoon, and you can eat it at night."
"Father, you told me that I want to eat too."
Qin Shen reached out and rubbed his son's head indiscriminately, "Hey, he is indeed a good son of Dad, with the same taste as Dad. I called."
In order not to affect Diudiu's study, Qin Shen went to the yard to make a phone call, picked a glistening red tomato, leaned over and turned on the faucet that came from outside to wash away the dust, and shook off the water droplets on it and sent it to his mouth , um, sweet and sour.
The phone was connected, and mother Qin Jing answered, "Eat again." As soon as she answered the phone, Qin Jing heard the sound of chewing, and asked hesitantly: "You have been greedy recently, and you always eat strawberries, tomatoes, etc. Sour and sweet. Yes, tell mom honestly, is there any?"
"Pfft——" Qin Shen sprayed the tomato in his mouth, and the tomato juice choked into his throat, causing a severe cough, and physiological tears came out.After coughing several times, he finally calmed down, holding half a tomato and said in a hoarse voice, "How is that possible!"
Qin Shen's voice was full of contempt, "How is that impossible!"
It felt weird to talk to my mother about what happened on my bedside, but Qin Shen wanted to justify himself, so he bit the bullet and said, "We have taken protective measures every time."
"It's exciting!"
"Mom—" Qin Shen was in a hurry, it was too strange to discuss this, his mother didn't have any taboos, I don't know what it is to be blushing and shy. "With it, I don't know yet, definitely not."
"You won't know until Diu Diu gave birth to you." Qin Jing complained.
What mother said was the truth, Qin Shen was powerless to refute, "Uh, I was young at that time." This reason is quite pale, it is better to say that it is because of the problem of ideology, who would think of him as a boy with a red hair? Pregnant.
"Pull it down, I don't have such a heart." In the woodware shop, Qin Jing, who was on the phone with her son, lay down on the recliner in a more comfortable position, and continued: "I just remind you, take care of yourself. "
"Oh." Qin Shen looked at the half tomato in his hand, and suddenly found it hard to swallow.
Qin Jing asked: "What are you doing on the phone?"
Almost forgot the most important thing, Qin Shen quickly asked his doubts, "Mom, every year my father has to roast mutton, why didn't he do it this year?"
"Forget about this matter." Qin Jing also thought about it. Everything went well with the eldest son, and the younger son settled down. The days passed as they went, and the time passed quickly.In the past, we counted the New Year against the calendar, but this year, the New Year is approaching in the blink of an eye.The calendar on the table will be replaced soon, and the Lunar New Year is coming, and they haven't prepared anything yet.
"Then let's do it today." Qin Shen told his mother about buying and killing sheep, "How is it?"
"Very good." Qin Jing was very interested and asked her son, "Are you going to buy goats or we go. It's best to go to the next town to buy goats. They have a goat market over there."
This Qin Shen knew that his father Lin Gaofeng used to buy sheep there in the past, and people who raised sheep from all over the world would send them there for centralized trading. Over time, it became a convention, and that place became a sheep market. Later, it was managed and planned by the government. , become hygienic and orderly.Qin Shen remembered that he went there with his father once when he was a child. At that time, it was still a wild market. The sheep were tied up casually, and there were lumps of black grains. The whole market smelled very ecstasy.
"I'll go, drive there for a while."
"Okay, you don't know how to choose, just find a broker outside the market. Give him ten yuan, and the price will always be the same." Qin Shen taught his son his experience, "There are sheep killers in the market, if you find it troublesome , or you can make it over there and take it home.”
"Yeah, I got it, Mom."
After hanging up the phone, half of the tomato in Qin Shen's hand unknowingly left only one stalk, and he burped full of tomato flavor. His hands tremblingly covered his lower abdomen. Recently, he was really good at it. When eating, the mouth hardly stops.
No, it's really going to add a younger brother to Diu Diu, right?
No!Qin Shen yelled in his heart, he didn't want to have another child, that strange feeling made his whole body shudder.
When he knew that Diudiu was alive, he had a stomachache, which was so painful that he thought it was appendicitis. Fortunately, when he was at home during that time, his mother discovered his abnormality in time.If he was sent to the hospital while in school at that time, he probably would have become the biggest headline of this century.
He didn't know the process of the child's birth. He lay on the bed in a daze from the pain, knowing that his mother had hurriedly called for a doctor, and then he passed out completely.When he woke up again, the little baby was lying beside him. It was the first time he had seen the child. His skin was wrinkled and red like a little monkey's.
Little Diudiu, whose face was as big as the palm of his hand, could only hold one of his fingers with his small hand, cried like a kitten meowing, and would not open his eyes.
Qin Shen was so frightened that he only dared to stretch out the softest fingertips to touch him lightly.
Qin Shen frowned, racking his brains to find out how he felt when he was pregnant with Diudiu in his memory and compare them with the present... The memory is long gone, and he didn't take those feelings to heart. The only thing he remembered was probably the fetal movement as flatulence , almost took stomach medicine.
Qin Shen muttered, "It can't be true." Looking straight ahead in confusion, what should he do?
"Qin Shen."
When Qin Shen heard the voice calling himself, he turned his head to look over, his eyes remained in a state of confusion, and there was a fear that he didn't realize, "Huh?"
Zhang Tenghai came out and came to Qin Shen. He took Qin Shen's hand and said to him seriously, "Qin Shen, don't be afraid."
"I, I didn't..." Qin Shen couldn't say frankly that he wasn't afraid.
Zhang Tenghai let go of his hand and held his shoulder instead, "Qin Shen looked at me, don't be afraid, I will never do anything to hurt you until you agree. Every time we used to, I would Wear it."
Qin Shen's heart suddenly relaxed, he let out a long breath, lowered his head, looked at his toes that moved uncomfortably, "I'm sorry."
Zhang Tenghai pressed the back of Qin Shen's head, letting Qin Shen's forehead rest on his body.Complicated emotions flashed in the deep eyes one by one, and finally calmed down. He said slowly and clearly in a deep and melodious voice: "Qin Shen, I should be the one who should say sorry. Deep, you can put Diu Diu Bringing it into my life is already the greatest happiness in my life. How could you force you to demand more. Me, you, and Diudiu, our little family has only been together for a short time, but this peace A lot of love, I hope it lasts a long time."
Zhang Tenghai's hand on Qin Shen's shoulder slid down to his waist, and he hugged him vigorously, pulling him closer to his body, "I owe you so much, and I still need a lot of time to make up for it." .”
"Me too." Qin Shen's voice was muffled.
Diudiu has a shy and introverted personality and is very sensitive to external emotions. Having a second child is something that has to be considered repeatedly in ordinary families. How could they not make any preparations in their special small family.
Before Qin Shen, Diudiu, and Zhang Tenghai himself are ready, let the second child wait.
After being sticky for a while, the sun rose high, and it would be afternoon if I didn't go to buy sheep.
Qin Shen went in to get the car keys, talked to Diu Diu and Liu Niang by the way, turned around and went out, and stopped when he stepped out of the inn door.
Twitching his heart, he raised the corners of his mouth pretending to be relaxed, and deliberately stepped out, Qin Shen said, "Let's go, let's go buy sheep."
Zhang Tenghai turned around and looked at Qin Shen, with melancholy eyes, extremely gentle, "Let's go."
The two of them walked out of the courtyard, and the car was parked outside the courtyard, on the lawn at the end of Heping Road. Qin Shen had specially had someone repair the lawn, and created two parking spaces. When spring came, he was planning to invite someone to come and set up a car here. There are two canopies, and there is also a protection when the car is parked in case of hail and the like.
"Jinchuan."
Jin Chuan, who brought a bag of fruit, did not expect to meet the owner of the inn directly at the door. He panicked, lowered his head shyly, and shouted, "Hi, boss."
"Hello." Qin Shen pushed the car door, walked to Jin Chuan's side, and looked at this white-bellied long-tailed pangolin that is extremely shy and doesn't like to contact people very much, "Winter is coming, and the fruits on the mountain are less , save yourselves for the winter, don’t send them away. I have received your wishes, don’t delay your winter for me.”
Jin Chuan blushed and opened his mouth to speak, but he was so anxious that he didn't know how to express it.
Qin Shen told him not to be so nervous, but to relax, "Haha, you have been working for me for so many days, why are you still so shy when you see me?"
Jin Chuan lowered his head shyly, "I'm not very used to getting along with humans."
"It's okay, it's okay, actually, I think it's better for animals not to get used to humans." Because not everyone is harmless, animals that are used to humans can easily get close to humans, which gives some people a chance.Putting this aside, Qin Shen asked the baby pangolins in Jinchuan, "Are they hibernating?"
"The weather is cold, the children are sleeping, and they don't wake up very often. We haven't made sufficient preparations this year, and we will try to make the nest more comfortable and warmer next year."
Qin Shen nodded, "If you lack anything, you can tell me."
Jin Chuan nodded gratefully, "Thank you boss, Lord Shanshen also let me tell him if I have anything missing."
Jin Chuan said very seriously: "You are all good people."
"Haha." Qin Shen liked this good person card very much.
After accepting the fruit from Jin Chuan, Qin Shen repeatedly emphasized that he should not send any more in the future, and should plan well for himself.The products of Baidang Mountain are not bad, but now in the middle of winter, the food that can be found is very limited, and the variety of fruits wrapped in large leaves has also changed from a rich variety at the beginning to a single one now, which shows that the period is difficult.
Qin Shen wanted to speak once when he caught Jin Chuan, but this guy always refused to listen, and he still sent it to the inn as usual, and he also sent it to the medical hall.When Hong Ye came to the inn, he talked to Qin Shen more than once, but they found that the shy Jin Chuan was very stubborn, and his persistence made them both helpless and distressed.
This time Qin Shen repeatedly emphasized, and incidentally said what Hong Ye meant, Jin Chuan seemed to have heard it.
Qin Shen had a headache, "Don't give it away, we prefer these foods to allow hundreds of baby pangolins to survive the winter safely. If you are really sorry, can you give us fruits when spring begins and everything recovers? Diudiu likes those fruits very much. We will be angry if you return them within three or nine days."
Only then did Jin Chuan panic. He was afraid that his persistent behavior would attract hate. He had little contact with human beings, and he didn't know much about the world. He wanted to repay anyone who treated him well. "Then, then I'll send it when spring begins."
Qin Shen was helpless and distressed, and patted Jin Chuan's head, "Although you are much older than me, you look like a child. Good boy, don't put such a big burden on yourself, just be happy."
Jin Chuan sniffled, his eyes were slightly red, "Yes."
Qin Shen patted him on the shoulder, "Go back, we are also going to the next town to buy goats."
Jin Chuan raised his head and said courageously: "The monkeys on the mountain raised a lot of goats. I heard that they are very ancient breeds. The meat is very tender and has no smell. It is much better than those raised by humans. I can show you goats. Go and buy sheep from them."
"..." Go to the mountains to buy sheep raised by monkeys?
Sure enough, this world is constantly refreshing his understanding of it.
Qin Shen was very curious about how monkeys herded sheep and raised sheep, and the fresh and tender goat meat without strong smell filled him with longing as a foodie.
So, when Qin Shen asked about the time for the round trip, he and Zhang Tenghai walked into the dense forest.Jin Chuan told him that the place where the monkey tribe lived was not far from the inn, and he knew a shortcut, so it was even faster, and it didn't take an hour to go back and forth.
Qin Shen is very familiar with the mountains near Hongye Town. He grew up here. The mountains and forests are the natural paradise for their children. Not to mention that they can find the way with their eyes closed, but it is still easy to distinguish the direction and direction.
Walking into the mountain, Qin Shen looked at the artificially stepped fork in the road. The one on the left dangled on the edge of the mountain, and the one on the right led into the deep mountain.The roads were left by the old hunters before, and hunting was banned later. These roads became the roads that the townspeople used to collect mountain products. If there were more people walking, the grass on the roads would grow shorter than other places.
"Which way to go?" Qin Shen asked.
Jin Chuan walked to the left, and soon after walking, he saw a wooden house like a stilt building. The wooden house was based on four logs that were deeply driven into the rocks, and a small house of about ten square meters was built on the uneven mountain wall. house, so the bottom of the wooden house is suspended.
Qin Shen couldn't tell how many years this wooden house had existed. When he went up the mountain when he was a child, his friends would look at it from afar and talk about all the strange things surrounding it.
Now, Qin Shen knew that it was the place where Qinglong Shenjun and Hongye Mountain God lived before, and all speculation about it disappeared in his heart.
This house is now given to Jin Chuan and the others to live in.
The baby pangolins are digging holes under the wooden house, and almost no one comes here, so no one will notice that there are suddenly a group of pangolins living here.
Jin Chuan removed the withered grass under the wooden house, revealing a big hole wide for two people, from which fresh air came out.
A shy blush appeared on Jin Chuan's face, and he said shyly, "The shortcut is just below."
Qin Shen looked at it, and dared to dig this shortcut by himself, no wonder he knew it very well.
Qin Shen and Zhang Tenghai entered the tunnel one after the other, and Jin Chuan came in behind them, and covered it with withered grass.The tunnel didn't fall into darkness. There were fluorescent mushrooms on the mountain wall emitting faint light. It wasn't very bright, but it didn't make the environment fall into darkness.
Qin Shen pressed his fingers on the wall, feeling its texture. He found that the upper half of the wall was made of soil, while the lower half was made of hard rocks. to a different room.
The air in the mountain path is dry and not humid, nor is it full of peculiar smells like places where animals gather, but the faint sweet smell of fruit trees and the green grass.
When he arrived at the underground that he was familiar with, Jin Chuan let go a lot, "I have the approval of the mountain god to build such a large tunnel here. The place is big enough, and if the children grow up and give birth to their children, they can also I can live there. My residence is quite close to the monkeys, go out at the end of this road, and it will take another quarter of an hour to arrive.”
Qin Shen found it interesting, and pulled Zhang Tenghai's finger to hook it. This is a side of the mountain that ordinary people can't see. Animals have to be specially approved by the mountain god to divide their territories, and the size is also strictly controlled.
After all, they are all breaking ground on the territory of the mountain god.
"It's amazing, it's not easy for you to dig out such a big place."
Jin Chuan said: "Fortunately, I just don't know where to move the excavated soil. Later, the mountain god gave us a notice that the monkeys need soil to raise sheep and grow grass, so I sent it there, and then we got along with the monkeys. connect."
"Oh." Qin Shen couldn't help turning his head to look at Zhang Tenghai, all this was so interesting.
Zhang Tenghai also looked at him with a relaxed smile on his face.
Qin Shen didn't look at the road when he walked. There was a small stone on the ground. If he couldn't walk well, he would easily sprain his feet if he stepped on it. Zhang Tenghai stretched out his foot and kicked it away calmly.Holding Qin Shen's hand, he continued to walk forward.
As Jin Chuan said, this shortcut is very easy to take, because it is almost a straight line, so it takes a short time.
After coming out of the tunnel, you will arrive at the hinterland of Baidang Mountain, surrounded by tall and sturdy trees, the sky becomes a silhouette among the tree crowns, you can't see where the sun is, Qin Shen can't tell the direction, and can't tell how far they are from the town .
This side is truly off the beaten track and overgrown with weeds.
Jin Chuan led the way by beating on the grass with a stick. From time to time, small creatures would be frightened away. Qin Shen checked, but there were no snakes.
After walking for five or six minutes, there were more monkeys on the tree, one standing every ten meters, they were the outposts of the monkey group.
"I never knew that there were monkeys in Baidang Mountain." Qin Shen said to Zhang Tenghai with a suppressed voice.
"They are hidden deep." When they reached a strange place, Qin Shen felt nothing, and Zhang Tenghai was on guard all the time. "They are very common macaques."
"Ang, it's definitely not a rare species. If it's a golden monkey, no matter how deep it is hidden, people will find it."
"Shh."
Zhang Tenghai signaled Qin Shen to keep quiet, they have arrived at the monkey group's station.
Qin Shen quit the software, turned over and got off the bed, stood on the ground and stretched. It was a rare late sleep, and it felt really comfortable to wake up naturally after sleeping.
He pulled on his slippers and went out with his mobile phone. When he passed by Diu Diu's room, he opened the door and took a look. The child had already gotten up and went out. A small milk cat was sleeping in a ball on the soft quilt in a rare way. He smiled deeply, "Huhuhu~", it's because he was snoring from sleep.
After closing the door and going to the door to change shoes, Qin Shen walked out. Outside, the wine jar baby greeted Qin Shen energetically, "Morning Boss Naidi."
"Morning, baby." This wine jar, his name is baby.
"Boss, you are still handsome today. Just looking at him, he will be drunk."
"Haha, you don't need to flatter me every day."
"That's not true." The baby's voice was very serious, and a serious facial expression appeared on the wine jar, "Baby is telling the truth."
Qin Shen was pleased, who wouldn't listen to good things, haha. "How about the rice wine you made this time?"
"Boss Naidi, when you come to see the baby in the afternoon, you can drink delicious rice wine, which is very, very delicious, and the wine can also be used to make rice balls." The baby in the wine jar had an intoxicated face, "Wow, use green rice The rice wine made is so good that everyone will get drunk."
"Then get drunk. I went to the kitchen to find something to eat. I didn't have breakfast. I'm starving to death."
"Go, go, my most handsome boss, it is the baby's greatest blessing to see you every day."
Qin Shen shook off the goosebumps all over his body, he was tired of hearing too many good things.
The green japonica rice was planted with a gift from the Millet Kingdom. The place where it was planted was the two-acre vacant land in the courtyard on the "upper floor" of the inn. , the hoe is broken.
Large areas of plants on the grassland are dry and desolate at first glance.
The inn, guarded by the barrier left by the Emperor of Heaven, was not affected by the cold wind at the intersection of the Three Realms, and was still as warm as spring.Huang Sanwei, an employee of the inn, and Guo Yue, a temporary worker, could not stay idle, so they cleaned up the two acres of open space in the yard to plant grains, and the green japonica rice was planted during this period.
Its growth period is very short and it does not choose a place, but like wild rice that has not been domesticated, the ears of rice produced are very small, and the husk has a high rate of hollowness. Compared with the current high-quality rice, it is too far behind.
Rare things are more expensive, no wonder they became the tribute rice of the millet kingdom.
The taste of the new rice is very good. It tastes fragrant and glutinous. The taste is between japonica rice and glutinous rice.Qin Shen decided to expand the planting area of green japonica rice in the spring of the coming year, so that the inn would use it for rice in the future.
Qin Shen took out [-] catties of Japonica rice and ordinary glutinous rice to make rice wine, which was extravagant. The recipe used was very simple, and a search on the Internet would turn up a lot of them.
I don't know if the addition of green japonica rice will bring joyful changes to the ordinary rice wine.
The answer should be yes.
Qin Shen went into the kitchen and saw Qiu Baocheng cleaning the old-fashioned stove.
"Brother Baocheng, what delicious food did you make for breakfast?" Qin Shen rubbed his stomach, growling with hunger.
Qiu Baocheng stood up straight with a rag in his hand, pointed to the rice cooker and said to Qin Shen: "Today, three tails fished out a big fish with a net. I just sliced the fish, and I eat fish porridge in the morning."
Qin Shen had already opened the lid of the pot, and a hot air wrapped in fragrance rushed towards his face. When the heat dissipated, he saw the porridge. The white and tender fish fillets were wrapped in porridge rice, and the green green onion added color.He took a small spoon and dug it out. He saw white and slightly transparent particles mixed in the rice grains, and asked, "What is the white thing inside? It doesn't look like sago."
"Oh, that one, I made small balls with tapioca flour, you can call them pearls. If you cook them in porridge, the taste will be softer than those in milk tea. Try it and see how it feels."
It was the first time for Qin Shen to eat this kind of porridge, pearl fish porridge?What an amazing match.Putting the spoon full of porridge into his mouth, Qin Shen raised his eyebrows, and he couldn't speak smoothly with the porridge in his mouth, "It's so fresh and delicious."
He didn't fish out the fish fillets with this spoon, only the pearls and porridge rice, the taste is very good, the aroma of the fish is completely absorbed by the porridge rice, the porridge doesn't seem to be boiled until it blooms, but it melts when you put it in your mouth up.The pearls enrich the texture of the fish porridge. It is not as hard as the black pearls in milk tea. It tastes like glutinous rice, very soft and glutinous.
Qin Shen quickly filled a large bowl of porridge for himself, found white pepper and sprinkled a small poke on the porridge, which could increase the mouth-numbing taste a little.
Such a bowl of fish porridge does not need any side dishes to accompany the porridge, just porridge is enough.
Walking outside with the porridge in hand, Qin Shen moved his mouth to the side of the bowl to suck the porridge. The fish fillet porridge was thick, and he got up late, and the rice grains absorbed the little soup, making it even more fragrant and thick.
Qin Shen sighed, "There have been no guests coming recently."
The ferry boat came in the middle, and a group of guests who were going to the ghost world came. The inn was lively for a while, and when the group of guests left, it returned to calm.
Datougui told Qin Shen that the intersection of the Three Realms is getting colder and colder, and the surface of the Santu River is about to freeze. This business trip is over and he will not come to the shore again until the river surface thaws and resumes its flow.
As a result, the business of the inn will be even more scarce in the future.
Holding a small round embroidery frame, Liu Niang shrugged her shoulders nonchalantly, "When you get busy, you will miss the leisure you have now."
Qin Shen looked at her curiously, "My mother also said the same thing. If the guests who go to the demon world don't come, and the ferry doesn't dock, it's impossible for the sky to come and go. Where did the guests come from?"
Liu Niang smiled and said nothing.
Qin Shen continued to drink his porridge, "Okay, you don't want to tell me, I will know when the guests come. Haha, when the guests come, you will get money. Lao Zhang cleared all the things in the warehouse, and the account Lots of extra zeros."
The thousand-year-old chamber pot was actually used by a certain celebrity in history. There is an emblem on the inner side of the chamber caliber, and the inscription on the bottom is badly worn and Qin Shen can't understand. Blank to that person.
Qin Shen also had nothing to say.
It can only be said to be valuable, even if it is exchanged for three melons and two dates, it is still money.
He drank the porridge and took it back to the kitchen to wash it off. He came out shaking his wet hands. He was amazed by Liu Niang's speed. The inside of the embroidery frame was just blurred. He turned around and went in for a while. In a short period of time, most of the embroidery has been embroidered, and the flowers and trees on the bank and a colorful bird in the water are lifelike.
"Liu Niang, you are so fast." Qin Shen praised.
Liu Niang stopped her needlework, and took the embroidery frame away to appreciate it, "What's the speed, I haven't exerted any strength yet."
Qin Shen nodded, monsters must be different, and they cannot be limited by human eyes.Looking at the mandarin ducks embroidered by Liu Niang, Qin Shen remembered a veil that his own father asked the housekeeper to take from the boat and gave them. This veil is now kept by his mother. He remembered that there was a pattern embroidered on the corner of the veil— —It looks like everything, except mandarin ducks that don’t look like mandarin ducks.
Liu Niang also chatted with Qin Shen about Qin Jing's craftsmanship, "I taught your mother's embroidery, but it's a pity that she procrastinated for several years and didn't graduate. Later, I told your mother that you were not born with embroidery skills. The material for the needle. Your mother got angry and went straight to the health school after school to get another needle."
"..." It turns out that there is a reason why my mother became a nurse.
Liu Niang continued to embroider, the embroidery needles were flying in her hands, and after a while, there was another mandarin duck next to the embroidered mandarin duck.
"Don't mandarin ducks swim together, one male and one female? The two you embroidered are of colorful feathers, that's not right." Qin Shen pointed out a mistake in Liu Niang's embroidery drawing seriously.
Liu Niang scolded, "The pillowcase embroidered for you and Mr. Zhang, do you want a male and a female?"
"……Oh"
When is it time for mandarin mandarin mandarin and mandarin mandarin ducks to hug each other, the branches on the moon are ashamed every night.
One male and one female or something, forget it.
Under Liu Niang's meaningful eyes, Qin Shen almost fled to the courtyard with hands and feet, where he saw Zhang Tenghai and Diudiu.
The two of them squatted in the ground next to each other, holding flower shovels in their hands. Obviously, they did not come to farm the land, but to experience life==.
Qin Shen walked over, folded his arms and looked down at their father and son, "What are you doing?"
Diudiu raised his head, looked at his father with bright eyes, and shared with him the fruits of his one-morning labor, "Dad, my father and I planted strawberries."
"Isn't there a circle of strawberries planted along the base of the wall on the 'upper floor'?"
Diudiu patted the soil with a small shovel and insisted, "It's not the same."
Qin Shen raised his trouser legs and squatted down, "What's the difference?"
"I planted this with my own hands. It must taste different from that of my father's."
Qin Shen stretched out his hand to wipe off the dirt that stuck to his son's tender cheeks at some point, "It must be different, it must be more fragrant and sweet."
Qin Shen raised his fingertips to look, but he didn't wipe off the muddy spots on his son's face, instead they changed from the size of fifty cents to one dollar.The black mud dots were rubbed open and became larger and lighter in color to gray, making the skin fairer and smoother. Qin Shen smiled "hehe" and nodded his small nose with puzzled eyes, " But why do you plant it next to leeks, the taste of leeks is so strong."
"But Daddy said this is an onion." Diudiu looked at the neighbor in front of a row of newly planted strawberries. The roots were green and the leaves were straight and flat. "It seems to be really a leek."
Zhang Tenghai rubbed his nose, don't blame him for not being able to tell the difference between leeks and shallots, he only really touched the fields after he came to the inn, at first glance, the onions and leeks looked the same in his eyes.
Qin Shen pursed his lips and sniggered, not wanting to discredit Cheng Hai in front of Diu Diu. He coughed twice to calm down his emotions, and said solemnly: "Leeks taste heavy, and it won't affect strawberries. Don't use them, baby." Don't worry, the strawberries you grow will still be very sweet."
Diudiu let go of the small worries in his heart, nodded vigorously, and decided to trust his father.
Huang Sanwei, who was weeding more than ten steps away, whispered to Wang Lebin suspiciously: "It doesn't have any influence."
Boss Qin himself is not proficient in farming, because he likes delicious food, and it is enough to distinguish between various vegetables and fruits, so there is no need to ask too much of him.
Qin Shen accompanied Zhang Tenghai and Diudiu to plant all the strawberry seedlings, and then went to wash their hands together. In the middle of Diudiu, he entered the room and saw that Dabai was still sleeping. He closed the door lightly, took homework and went to Do your homework by the window in the lobby.
Accompanied by Zhang Tenghai, this is one of the parent-child activities he enjoys most.
Diu Diu has good academic performance and can easily complete the homework assigned by the teacher.Diudiu also joined the mathematics interest group run by the school. The teachers in the interest group would teach the children Olympiad questions. The sea comes in handy.
Seen by the child's adoring eyes, Zhang Tenghai felt even more proud than he had overcome the difficult problems in the world of mathematics.
Qin Shen doesn't have the patience to teach children. He belongs to the kind who can learn by himself and learns very well, but he can't teach others or impart experience. It's easy for him to teach ordinary topics in his hands. become extremely complicated.
The sunlight coming in through the glass was warm and warm. At first, Qin Shen propped his head on his hands and looked at Zhang Tenghai and Diudiu, who were leaning against each other. Then he yawned, his head fell on his big arms, and he looked at them half on his stomach. .The other hand that can move flexibly picked up the juicy strawberries on the plate and threw them into his mouth. They were full of water, sweet and sour, and he liked the crunch of strawberry seeds when they were chewed by his teeth.
After eating too many strawberries, Qin Shen burped and said lazily, "I burped, I seem to feel the smell of mutton."
"Dad, you ate so many strawberries, shouldn't you burp and smell of strawberries?" Diudiu asked doubtfully while holding the pen.
Zhang Chenghai took a strawberry to Diudiu and said, "Because your father wants to eat mutton."
"Tonic in winter, isn't it better to eat mutton. My dad cooks a big pot of goat meat every year, divides them into bowls and puts them in bowls. You can put cabbage, and a simple meal will become very delicious because of this bowl of mutton." The more he said, the more Qin Shen wanted to eat it, and he stood up decisively, "I don't know why Dad hasn't started this year. I made it by myself, I called and asked. Anyway, the inn is not busy, so I went to buy two goats and came back. I killed and made it myself. I built a stove with bricks in the yard, put a big iron pot on it, and used firewood. Cook it all afternoon, and you can eat it at night."
"Father, you told me that I want to eat too."
Qin Shen reached out and rubbed his son's head indiscriminately, "Hey, he is indeed a good son of Dad, with the same taste as Dad. I called."
In order not to affect Diudiu's study, Qin Shen went to the yard to make a phone call, picked a glistening red tomato, leaned over and turned on the faucet that came from outside to wash away the dust, and shook off the water droplets on it and sent it to his mouth , um, sweet and sour.
The phone was connected, and mother Qin Jing answered, "Eat again." As soon as she answered the phone, Qin Jing heard the sound of chewing, and asked hesitantly: "You have been greedy recently, and you always eat strawberries, tomatoes, etc. Sour and sweet. Yes, tell mom honestly, is there any?"
"Pfft——" Qin Shen sprayed the tomato in his mouth, and the tomato juice choked into his throat, causing a severe cough, and physiological tears came out.After coughing several times, he finally calmed down, holding half a tomato and said in a hoarse voice, "How is that possible!"
Qin Shen's voice was full of contempt, "How is that impossible!"
It felt weird to talk to my mother about what happened on my bedside, but Qin Shen wanted to justify himself, so he bit the bullet and said, "We have taken protective measures every time."
"It's exciting!"
"Mom—" Qin Shen was in a hurry, it was too strange to discuss this, his mother didn't have any taboos, I don't know what it is to be blushing and shy. "With it, I don't know yet, definitely not."
"You won't know until Diu Diu gave birth to you." Qin Jing complained.
What mother said was the truth, Qin Shen was powerless to refute, "Uh, I was young at that time." This reason is quite pale, it is better to say that it is because of the problem of ideology, who would think of him as a boy with a red hair? Pregnant.
"Pull it down, I don't have such a heart." In the woodware shop, Qin Jing, who was on the phone with her son, lay down on the recliner in a more comfortable position, and continued: "I just remind you, take care of yourself. "
"Oh." Qin Shen looked at the half tomato in his hand, and suddenly found it hard to swallow.
Qin Jing asked: "What are you doing on the phone?"
Almost forgot the most important thing, Qin Shen quickly asked his doubts, "Mom, every year my father has to roast mutton, why didn't he do it this year?"
"Forget about this matter." Qin Jing also thought about it. Everything went well with the eldest son, and the younger son settled down. The days passed as they went, and the time passed quickly.In the past, we counted the New Year against the calendar, but this year, the New Year is approaching in the blink of an eye.The calendar on the table will be replaced soon, and the Lunar New Year is coming, and they haven't prepared anything yet.
"Then let's do it today." Qin Shen told his mother about buying and killing sheep, "How is it?"
"Very good." Qin Jing was very interested and asked her son, "Are you going to buy goats or we go. It's best to go to the next town to buy goats. They have a goat market over there."
This Qin Shen knew that his father Lin Gaofeng used to buy sheep there in the past, and people who raised sheep from all over the world would send them there for centralized trading. Over time, it became a convention, and that place became a sheep market. Later, it was managed and planned by the government. , become hygienic and orderly.Qin Shen remembered that he went there with his father once when he was a child. At that time, it was still a wild market. The sheep were tied up casually, and there were lumps of black grains. The whole market smelled very ecstasy.
"I'll go, drive there for a while."
"Okay, you don't know how to choose, just find a broker outside the market. Give him ten yuan, and the price will always be the same." Qin Shen taught his son his experience, "There are sheep killers in the market, if you find it troublesome , or you can make it over there and take it home.”
"Yeah, I got it, Mom."
After hanging up the phone, half of the tomato in Qin Shen's hand unknowingly left only one stalk, and he burped full of tomato flavor. His hands tremblingly covered his lower abdomen. Recently, he was really good at it. When eating, the mouth hardly stops.
No, it's really going to add a younger brother to Diu Diu, right?
No!Qin Shen yelled in his heart, he didn't want to have another child, that strange feeling made his whole body shudder.
When he knew that Diudiu was alive, he had a stomachache, which was so painful that he thought it was appendicitis. Fortunately, when he was at home during that time, his mother discovered his abnormality in time.If he was sent to the hospital while in school at that time, he probably would have become the biggest headline of this century.
He didn't know the process of the child's birth. He lay on the bed in a daze from the pain, knowing that his mother had hurriedly called for a doctor, and then he passed out completely.When he woke up again, the little baby was lying beside him. It was the first time he had seen the child. His skin was wrinkled and red like a little monkey's.
Little Diudiu, whose face was as big as the palm of his hand, could only hold one of his fingers with his small hand, cried like a kitten meowing, and would not open his eyes.
Qin Shen was so frightened that he only dared to stretch out the softest fingertips to touch him lightly.
Qin Shen frowned, racking his brains to find out how he felt when he was pregnant with Diudiu in his memory and compare them with the present... The memory is long gone, and he didn't take those feelings to heart. The only thing he remembered was probably the fetal movement as flatulence , almost took stomach medicine.
Qin Shen muttered, "It can't be true." Looking straight ahead in confusion, what should he do?
"Qin Shen."
When Qin Shen heard the voice calling himself, he turned his head to look over, his eyes remained in a state of confusion, and there was a fear that he didn't realize, "Huh?"
Zhang Tenghai came out and came to Qin Shen. He took Qin Shen's hand and said to him seriously, "Qin Shen, don't be afraid."
"I, I didn't..." Qin Shen couldn't say frankly that he wasn't afraid.
Zhang Tenghai let go of his hand and held his shoulder instead, "Qin Shen looked at me, don't be afraid, I will never do anything to hurt you until you agree. Every time we used to, I would Wear it."
Qin Shen's heart suddenly relaxed, he let out a long breath, lowered his head, looked at his toes that moved uncomfortably, "I'm sorry."
Zhang Tenghai pressed the back of Qin Shen's head, letting Qin Shen's forehead rest on his body.Complicated emotions flashed in the deep eyes one by one, and finally calmed down. He said slowly and clearly in a deep and melodious voice: "Qin Shen, I should be the one who should say sorry. Deep, you can put Diu Diu Bringing it into my life is already the greatest happiness in my life. How could you force you to demand more. Me, you, and Diudiu, our little family has only been together for a short time, but this peace A lot of love, I hope it lasts a long time."
Zhang Tenghai's hand on Qin Shen's shoulder slid down to his waist, and he hugged him vigorously, pulling him closer to his body, "I owe you so much, and I still need a lot of time to make up for it." .”
"Me too." Qin Shen's voice was muffled.
Diudiu has a shy and introverted personality and is very sensitive to external emotions. Having a second child is something that has to be considered repeatedly in ordinary families. How could they not make any preparations in their special small family.
Before Qin Shen, Diudiu, and Zhang Tenghai himself are ready, let the second child wait.
After being sticky for a while, the sun rose high, and it would be afternoon if I didn't go to buy sheep.
Qin Shen went in to get the car keys, talked to Diu Diu and Liu Niang by the way, turned around and went out, and stopped when he stepped out of the inn door.
Twitching his heart, he raised the corners of his mouth pretending to be relaxed, and deliberately stepped out, Qin Shen said, "Let's go, let's go buy sheep."
Zhang Tenghai turned around and looked at Qin Shen, with melancholy eyes, extremely gentle, "Let's go."
The two of them walked out of the courtyard, and the car was parked outside the courtyard, on the lawn at the end of Heping Road. Qin Shen had specially had someone repair the lawn, and created two parking spaces. When spring came, he was planning to invite someone to come and set up a car here. There are two canopies, and there is also a protection when the car is parked in case of hail and the like.
"Jinchuan."
Jin Chuan, who brought a bag of fruit, did not expect to meet the owner of the inn directly at the door. He panicked, lowered his head shyly, and shouted, "Hi, boss."
"Hello." Qin Shen pushed the car door, walked to Jin Chuan's side, and looked at this white-bellied long-tailed pangolin that is extremely shy and doesn't like to contact people very much, "Winter is coming, and the fruits on the mountain are less , save yourselves for the winter, don’t send them away. I have received your wishes, don’t delay your winter for me.”
Jin Chuan blushed and opened his mouth to speak, but he was so anxious that he didn't know how to express it.
Qin Shen told him not to be so nervous, but to relax, "Haha, you have been working for me for so many days, why are you still so shy when you see me?"
Jin Chuan lowered his head shyly, "I'm not very used to getting along with humans."
"It's okay, it's okay, actually, I think it's better for animals not to get used to humans." Because not everyone is harmless, animals that are used to humans can easily get close to humans, which gives some people a chance.Putting this aside, Qin Shen asked the baby pangolins in Jinchuan, "Are they hibernating?"
"The weather is cold, the children are sleeping, and they don't wake up very often. We haven't made sufficient preparations this year, and we will try to make the nest more comfortable and warmer next year."
Qin Shen nodded, "If you lack anything, you can tell me."
Jin Chuan nodded gratefully, "Thank you boss, Lord Shanshen also let me tell him if I have anything missing."
Jin Chuan said very seriously: "You are all good people."
"Haha." Qin Shen liked this good person card very much.
After accepting the fruit from Jin Chuan, Qin Shen repeatedly emphasized that he should not send any more in the future, and should plan well for himself.The products of Baidang Mountain are not bad, but now in the middle of winter, the food that can be found is very limited, and the variety of fruits wrapped in large leaves has also changed from a rich variety at the beginning to a single one now, which shows that the period is difficult.
Qin Shen wanted to speak once when he caught Jin Chuan, but this guy always refused to listen, and he still sent it to the inn as usual, and he also sent it to the medical hall.When Hong Ye came to the inn, he talked to Qin Shen more than once, but they found that the shy Jin Chuan was very stubborn, and his persistence made them both helpless and distressed.
This time Qin Shen repeatedly emphasized, and incidentally said what Hong Ye meant, Jin Chuan seemed to have heard it.
Qin Shen had a headache, "Don't give it away, we prefer these foods to allow hundreds of baby pangolins to survive the winter safely. If you are really sorry, can you give us fruits when spring begins and everything recovers? Diudiu likes those fruits very much. We will be angry if you return them within three or nine days."
Only then did Jin Chuan panic. He was afraid that his persistent behavior would attract hate. He had little contact with human beings, and he didn't know much about the world. He wanted to repay anyone who treated him well. "Then, then I'll send it when spring begins."
Qin Shen was helpless and distressed, and patted Jin Chuan's head, "Although you are much older than me, you look like a child. Good boy, don't put such a big burden on yourself, just be happy."
Jin Chuan sniffled, his eyes were slightly red, "Yes."
Qin Shen patted him on the shoulder, "Go back, we are also going to the next town to buy goats."
Jin Chuan raised his head and said courageously: "The monkeys on the mountain raised a lot of goats. I heard that they are very ancient breeds. The meat is very tender and has no smell. It is much better than those raised by humans. I can show you goats. Go and buy sheep from them."
"..." Go to the mountains to buy sheep raised by monkeys?
Sure enough, this world is constantly refreshing his understanding of it.
Qin Shen was very curious about how monkeys herded sheep and raised sheep, and the fresh and tender goat meat without strong smell filled him with longing as a foodie.
So, when Qin Shen asked about the time for the round trip, he and Zhang Tenghai walked into the dense forest.Jin Chuan told him that the place where the monkey tribe lived was not far from the inn, and he knew a shortcut, so it was even faster, and it didn't take an hour to go back and forth.
Qin Shen is very familiar with the mountains near Hongye Town. He grew up here. The mountains and forests are the natural paradise for their children. Not to mention that they can find the way with their eyes closed, but it is still easy to distinguish the direction and direction.
Walking into the mountain, Qin Shen looked at the artificially stepped fork in the road. The one on the left dangled on the edge of the mountain, and the one on the right led into the deep mountain.The roads were left by the old hunters before, and hunting was banned later. These roads became the roads that the townspeople used to collect mountain products. If there were more people walking, the grass on the roads would grow shorter than other places.
"Which way to go?" Qin Shen asked.
Jin Chuan walked to the left, and soon after walking, he saw a wooden house like a stilt building. The wooden house was based on four logs that were deeply driven into the rocks, and a small house of about ten square meters was built on the uneven mountain wall. house, so the bottom of the wooden house is suspended.
Qin Shen couldn't tell how many years this wooden house had existed. When he went up the mountain when he was a child, his friends would look at it from afar and talk about all the strange things surrounding it.
Now, Qin Shen knew that it was the place where Qinglong Shenjun and Hongye Mountain God lived before, and all speculation about it disappeared in his heart.
This house is now given to Jin Chuan and the others to live in.
The baby pangolins are digging holes under the wooden house, and almost no one comes here, so no one will notice that there are suddenly a group of pangolins living here.
Jin Chuan removed the withered grass under the wooden house, revealing a big hole wide for two people, from which fresh air came out.
A shy blush appeared on Jin Chuan's face, and he said shyly, "The shortcut is just below."
Qin Shen looked at it, and dared to dig this shortcut by himself, no wonder he knew it very well.
Qin Shen and Zhang Tenghai entered the tunnel one after the other, and Jin Chuan came in behind them, and covered it with withered grass.The tunnel didn't fall into darkness. There were fluorescent mushrooms on the mountain wall emitting faint light. It wasn't very bright, but it didn't make the environment fall into darkness.
Qin Shen pressed his fingers on the wall, feeling its texture. He found that the upper half of the wall was made of soil, while the lower half was made of hard rocks. to a different room.
The air in the mountain path is dry and not humid, nor is it full of peculiar smells like places where animals gather, but the faint sweet smell of fruit trees and the green grass.
When he arrived at the underground that he was familiar with, Jin Chuan let go a lot, "I have the approval of the mountain god to build such a large tunnel here. The place is big enough, and if the children grow up and give birth to their children, they can also I can live there. My residence is quite close to the monkeys, go out at the end of this road, and it will take another quarter of an hour to arrive.”
Qin Shen found it interesting, and pulled Zhang Tenghai's finger to hook it. This is a side of the mountain that ordinary people can't see. Animals have to be specially approved by the mountain god to divide their territories, and the size is also strictly controlled.
After all, they are all breaking ground on the territory of the mountain god.
"It's amazing, it's not easy for you to dig out such a big place."
Jin Chuan said: "Fortunately, I just don't know where to move the excavated soil. Later, the mountain god gave us a notice that the monkeys need soil to raise sheep and grow grass, so I sent it there, and then we got along with the monkeys. connect."
"Oh." Qin Shen couldn't help turning his head to look at Zhang Tenghai, all this was so interesting.
Zhang Tenghai also looked at him with a relaxed smile on his face.
Qin Shen didn't look at the road when he walked. There was a small stone on the ground. If he couldn't walk well, he would easily sprain his feet if he stepped on it. Zhang Tenghai stretched out his foot and kicked it away calmly.Holding Qin Shen's hand, he continued to walk forward.
As Jin Chuan said, this shortcut is very easy to take, because it is almost a straight line, so it takes a short time.
After coming out of the tunnel, you will arrive at the hinterland of Baidang Mountain, surrounded by tall and sturdy trees, the sky becomes a silhouette among the tree crowns, you can't see where the sun is, Qin Shen can't tell the direction, and can't tell how far they are from the town .
This side is truly off the beaten track and overgrown with weeds.
Jin Chuan led the way by beating on the grass with a stick. From time to time, small creatures would be frightened away. Qin Shen checked, but there were no snakes.
After walking for five or six minutes, there were more monkeys on the tree, one standing every ten meters, they were the outposts of the monkey group.
"I never knew that there were monkeys in Baidang Mountain." Qin Shen said to Zhang Tenghai with a suppressed voice.
"They are hidden deep." When they reached a strange place, Qin Shen felt nothing, and Zhang Tenghai was on guard all the time. "They are very common macaques."
"Ang, it's definitely not a rare species. If it's a golden monkey, no matter how deep it is hidden, people will find it."
"Shh."
Zhang Tenghai signaled Qin Shen to keep quiet, they have arrived at the monkey group's station.
