Qiu Xi boating

Chapter 42

But throughout the whole night, neither the old man nor the little girl had any abnormal movements, and Yin Su did not feel drowsy anymore because of the scented tablets.

The next day, the old man told them that there was something in the place where the puyi fish disappeared, and hoped they could look for it, and asked the child to take them down the mountain so as not to get lost, but after speaking, he turned around and left without hesitation, as if for a moment I don't want to spend too much time with Yin Su.

However, when the two went out, they didn't see the child. Instead, they saw a cloud of white mist. The white mist floated near them, and a voice came from inside, "Come with me."

When the two heard the voice, they immediately understood that Bai Wu was the little girl.

Yin Su recalled that she was burned last night, and judging from the general signs, the grandparent and grandson were not bad, so he couldn't help feeling guilty, and said to her: "I'm sorry about what happened last night."

However, the little girl didn't return to him, and she didn't even speak to them along the way. She didn't say anything coyly until she was halfway up the mountain, "It's okay." Then she really disappeared in a flash.

Yin Su didn't understand what it meant for a while, but then he understood, thinking: Is this embarrassing?

So the two went down the mountain path and returned to Night Rain City, but they didn't go directly to find Mieyou.

Firstly, the people in Yeyu City live by the river, and the river is equivalent to the holy land in their hearts. If Mieyou dies, the fish in the river will surely die. In addition, there are not many fields here. It can't sustain the life of the whole city.

Secondly, there are only people on the river after nightfall. At other times, there are people fishing, or the weather is clear and the river water is dazzling.

So there is no rush for this matter, and a long-term plan is needed.

As soon as the two entered the inn, they saw a familiar figure, who also saw them, and hurriedly waved: "Here, here."

When Shen Liao saw an acquaintance, he was overjoyed, and said: "It's really unexpected, we can meet anywhere, fate! Come! I invite you to eat the fish just served!"

As soon as Yin Su saw him, he thought of Chen Xing, and was thinking about how to tell him about Chen Xing, but in a blink of an eye, he saw Ying Xi picking up fish with chopsticks, so he pushed the plate aside without thinking.

Yingxi looked at him puzzled, and Yin Su quickly made up an excuse in his mind, "Eh... this... doesn't even have a fish head, so it's not tasty."

As soon as his words came out, Yingxi was stunned for a moment, and then she understood, thinking: Every time Uncle Lin cooks fish, he puts the fish head in it, maybe it tastes better with the fish head.He nodded and stretched out his chopsticks to pick up other dishes.

Seeing the fish pushed to his side, Shen Liao picked up a piece and fed it to his mouth. After swallowing, he said: "Although there is no fish head, the meat is delicious and tender, it is worth a try."

Upon hearing this, Yingxi said, "You can try the one with fish head next time, it tastes better, right Asu."

Yin Su nodded in response, and said something in a low voice to Shen Liao. After hearing this, Shen Liao immediately looked like he had eaten shit, and saw Xiaoer passing by with a plate of fish, and then rushed to Outside, vomited loudly.

Seeing his inexplicable behavior, Yingxi asked puzzledly: "Asu, what did you say, why did he vomit like that?"

"I said... this fish looks extremely ugly, I can't bear to look at it directly, maybe Brother Shen won't be able to accept it."

At the same time, the two looked at Shen Liao, who was bent over and nauseated, and had already attracted strange eyes from passers-by. Yin Suxin said: "It's a crime."Ying Xixin said: Hypocritical.

After Shen Liao vomited, he walked in in embarrassment and poured a few large glasses of water. When he saw the fish on the table, he felt sick again, and asked Xiao Er to take the fish away.

Seeing that he was not feeling well at the moment, Yin Su thought that we should talk about Chen Xing's matter later, so he told him about Ye Yucheng's matter.

Then the three of them ate while thinking of ways, but when it came to eating, only Yin Su and Ying Xi were moving their chopsticks, and Shen Liao vomited so badly that he just drank water blindly.

After a while, Shen Liao thought of a countermeasure, and said: "Since the people here believe that sacrifices can bring blessings and rain, then if the sacrifices bring disasters, I am afraid they will not sacrifice again in the future, so that no one will Being sacrificed, Mieyou will not get the spirit, and then he will come out by himself."

But Yin Su felt that this was not good, and said: "Rain and dew are the beliefs of the people of Yeyu City, and sacrifices are their faith sustenance. If they don't use sacrifices to pray for rain and dew in the future, then they will use other methods, which may be even worse. Sacrifice means praying for blessings, which is not a problem in itself, the most problematic thing is human sacrifice, as long as they don't sacrifice human sacrifices in the future, it will be fine."

After listening to their opinions, Yingxi raised both hands to agree with Yin Su, so Shen Liao could only follow the general trend, but this matter is not urgent, what is needed most now is to find another way to make a living for the people of Yeyu City Otherwise, when Mieyou dies, everyone here will have to drink the northwest wind.

After nightfall, Yin Su and Ying Xi wanted to go to the river to find things first, but Shen Liao insisted on following.

When the three of them came to the river, Shen Liao looked at the river surface with disgust, and Yingxi was standing beside him, so he subconsciously wanted to complain, so he said to Yingxi: "I really didn't expect that the fish in here It's actually eating..."

Before he finished speaking, Yin Su knew what he was going to say, so he stepped past Yingxi, covered Shen Liao's mouth, and hurriedly said: "Brother Shen, you might as well go to the boat to hide .” Then he dragged him forward.

Shen Liao was dragged for a while in a daze, and Yin Su let him go, saying: "Brother Shen, you go to the boat first, there is only one uncle in the boat, surnamed Lin, he is very friendly and kind."

However, Shen Liao's mouth was covered for no reason, and he was puzzled, so he asked as he walked, "Brother Yin, why did you cover my mouth?"

Yin Su smiled awkwardly and didn't speak, so the two came to the side of the boat. After Yin Su introduced Shen Liao to Uncle Lin, he went back and saw Ying Xi wearing a coir raincoat and standing there with his head down. I don't know when the stone I picked up in my hand smashed into the water, it looked very aggrieved like that.

Seeing Yin Su coming, Yingxi asked him to spread his hands upwards without saying a word, like catching water.

Although Yin Su didn't understand what he was doing, he still did it.

Immediately afterwards, Yingxi placed her hands under his, with her palms against the backs of her hands, then closed her hands, wrapped them around his hands, and rubbed them lightly.

The rainwater flowed into the fingers of the two of them, and it was a bit sticky and slippery when rubbed together.

After a while, Yingxi let go of his hand, nodded in satisfaction, and said to him, "Go, let's go into the water."

Yin Su could still feel the remaining temperature on the back of his hand, but that little bit of warmth ignited his whole heart.

And Yingxi himself was still eager to try by the river like a normal person, when he turned around and saw that Yin Su didn't respond, he went back and patted him, saying, "What are you thinking? We're in the water."

Yin Su saw that he was looking at him, and the eyes that were about to move away seemed to be hooked, and he couldn't move. He just looked at the person in front of him like this, and looked at the man who was dressed in black, but was as white as snow on the mountain, and as bright as clouds. The people of the month.

But at this time, Yingxi was still immersed in the joy of washing away the traces of Shen Liao's stinky mouth on Yin Su's palm, she didn't notice it at all, and wondered why Ah Su looked at her like that, and patted him again For a moment, "Are you in a trance?"

Yin Su came back to his senses and said, "No, let's go."

The two swam to the place where the puyi fish disappeared that day, and dived down. However, after swimming in the river for a long time, they still couldn't find anything, so they had to go ashore first.

Yingxi said: "Then the old lady is not lying to us."

Yin Su shook his head and said: "She has no reason to do this, forget it, since she can't find it, she won't look for it.

The two returned to the boat, called Shen Liao away, and bid farewell to Uncle Lin.

Now that the three of them were in the inn, Yin Su and Shen Liao were scratching their heads, unable to think of any other way for the people of Yeyu City to make a living besides fishing.

And Ying Xi sat at the table playing with teacups, picked up the teacups one by one with his slender fingers and stacked them one by one, looking like an idler, he saw that the two of them were thinking hard and couldn't think of a solution, so he said casually: "I think farming is good. "

As soon as he said this, Yin Su thought that this was indeed a good method. Night Rain City had plenty of rain, and if the land was widened, a lot of things would definitely grow.

So the next day, the three wanted to see the farmland with their own eyes, but they walked around the city and found no farmland, so they asked people.

The man first looked them up and down with weird eyes, then pointed to the front and said: Isn't it right there.

When they went over to look at it, they were all so surprised that they couldn't speak. It's not farmland, calling it grass is just to give it face.

The whole land is covered with weeds, which are as high as a calf, and there is a sound of 'whooping' when the wind blows.

Yin Suxin said: All the rainwater in Night Rain City is used to grow grass, right?

He inquired with the people nearby, and found out that although there is a lot of rain in Yeyu City, the land here can't grow any crops, even crooked melons and dates, so most of the vegetables and fruits in Yeyu City are From out of town.

But Yin Su couldn't figure it out. There was so much rain that crops couldn't grow. It was either the rain or the soil. He picked up the Duizi Jue and went to see if there were any strange spirits in the soil. He was disappointed, it seems to be the problem of rain.

But the problem is found, but the rain falls from the sky, which cannot be controlled by manpower, but if Mieyou is eliminated directly, and no good things can grow in this soil, the people here will not be able to live.

From this point of view, Mieyou cannot be eradicated, but if Mieyou does not die, the people here will eat the fish that the spirit contains every day, and problems may arise in the future.

He couldn't think of a good way, he was very melancholy, and seeing the two people who were doing nothing beside him, he felt a burst of anger for no reason, seeing that Yingxi was fine, after all, he could occasionally come up with an idea, such as playing tricks or something. , but looking at Shen Liao, he sighed inwardly.

Seeing Yin Su looking at him, Shen Liao suddenly felt that Brother Yin's expression was saying 'my son is useless'?So he said: "Brother Yin, don't be anxious, or you will lose all your hair."

Hearing what Shen Liao said, Yingxi also looked at him, thought for a moment, and said, "Since it's the problem of rain, why don't we let the rain not fall into the soil?"

After hearing this, Shen Liao said: "It's not so easy, it's rain, and it's all in one fell swoop."

Yin Su suddenly said: "I have a solution."

He formed a spiritual barrier with his spiritual power to cover the farmland, so that the rain would not come in, but the sun would shine in.

Yingxi couldn't help but praise: "Smart! Asu."

Yin Su was suddenly praised, a little embarrassed, and said: "Thanks to you for reminding me."

Shen Liao looked at the two of them from the side, and said in his heart: Why are you still twitching?He said: "Don't flirt, it just happens to rain again tonight, let's see if we can plant it first."

The three of them went to borrow a hoe, but no one had one, so they had no choice but to pull it out with bare hands.

Passers-by looked at them like madmen, and then left with regret, saying, "What madmen."

Shen Liao was terribly exposed to the scorching sun. He looked at the two people in front of him. One was a cultivator and the other was a monster. They were not afraid of the sun, but he was sweating profusely because of his lack of spiritual power. My own feet, why don't you try to plant them out?"

But Yin Su saw that the people who passed by just now had fishing nets and sacks in their hands instead of fishing rods, and thought: It’s really useless to go fishing in such a big sun today, but he didn’t think too deeply, and continued to turn around and pull weeds.

At this time, an old lady came over, put a pot of water on the ridge of the field, and said to them: "The sun is so bright, come and drink some water."

Then he shook his head and left, still saying, "What a handsome young man, why are you so stupid? You are not afraid of being exposed to the sun."

Shen Liao was close, and when he heard what the old lady said, he felt aggrieved and said: I was exposed to the sun and thought to be sick again, it must be too miserable.Then he brought them two bowls of water.

Yin Su was indeed thirsty, and he drank in a hurry. A drop of water dripped from the corner of his mouth, and Ying Xi wiped it off after seeing it. That action was quite natural, and Yin Su just smiled at him.

But Shen Liao stood by and saw the whole process, his eyeballs almost fell out of shock, and said in his heart: What's going on?Then he saw the two of them chatting and laughing and pulling weeds forward, and he suddenly felt that it was not suitable for him to stay here.

The three of them finally pulled out all the grass in the field before dark. Yin Su used the blood sword to dig out many small holes in the soil, but there were no vegetable seeds, so he had no choice but to throw the flower seeds in, saying that if he could Flowers produce crops.

I don't know if this can work, but now I can only use a dead horse as a living horse doctor.

At this time, there was already light rain in the sky, Yin Su quickly surrounded the field with spiritual barriers, and the three left here.
