Chapter 9 Visitor (for Collection)
Beep!
In the deep valley, in the middle of an open space, a fire was lit. On it was a roasted chicken. The skin was roasted until it was browned, and a little bit of fat overflowed. It fell into the fire and exploded, with the aroma of chicken.
"Clack!"
Beside the fire, a huge white marten scratched its head and seemed impatient.
"Don't worry! It's still early!!"
Fang Yuan turned the branch carefully, sprinkling a little salt and pepper from time to time.
It is said that since the last transaction, he and this white mink have been acquainted for the first time, and they are familiar with each other for the second time, and gradually become acquainted.
In particular, after drinking the Wenxin tea brewed by the Zuowang Tea Ceremony, and eating a few raw leaves in disbelief, Bai Diao immediately didn't have much interest in the Wenxin tea tree, and just begged Fang Yuan to make tea for it every day.
As a price, that kind of spiritual fertilizer is naturally indispensable.
And more, it is to shoot a few pheasants and hares, come to please.
Fang Yuan was not a stingy person either, so he immediately roasted the meat and gave half of it to the white sable.
Poor brother Diao who drinks blood like a hair, where has he ever eaten cooked food? Coupled with the seasoning and the barbecue technique that Fang Yuan learned from his dream, Bai Diao was completely obsessed with it.
Now, when Fang Yuan opens the door every day, he can see small animals placed in front of the door, so he doesn't have to worry about eating meat at all.
"Come on! It's baked!"
Fang Yuan tore the roast chicken in half and handed it to the white sable. The sable was overjoyed and used his claws and mouth together like a wind to blow the clouds. He cleaned it up in two or three strokes, and licked his beard incessantly.
"Eat so fast..."
Fang Yuan was speechless, and took a bite of the chicken wing in his hand: "Well...the taste is really good!"
This roasted chicken is not only fragrant and tangy, but also extremely tender and smooth. In addition, it is produced in the deep mountains. I am used to eating pine nuts, hazelnuts, etc., and the meat automatically carries a fragrance of grass and trees, even though he is a half-toned chef. It is also very tasty.
"Want more?"
He looked at the white mink next to him who was eager to see through, smiled, and threw a chicken leg, the white mink caught it immediately, and gnawed happily.
"Don't just eat meat, it's not nutritious..."
Fang Yuan brought out Yujing rice and side dishes, and he ate it up. White Diao was so envious, he begged for another bowl. He didn't know how his stomach, which was smaller than Fang Yuan's, could hold all these things.
After eating and drinking, Fang Yuan tiptoed forward while the white ferret was eating, stroking the white ferret's back.
It feels very good, the soft hair is even smoother than the best silk, which makes him addicted unconsciously, and he is even more happy, knowing that this spirit beast has almost accepted him.
"Such a brave and ferocious big mink, if you subdue it, it will be the guardian spirit beast. Let me see who dares to peep!"
Fang Yuan never forgot that he still has an inexplicable enemy in the outside world.
"There is nothing better than tea for digestion..."
After the roast chicken was finished, Fang Yuan said something with a smile, and went back to the room and took out the teapot.
Seeing this, the white ferret's eyes lit up immediately.
To it, the roasted chicken is only slightly satisfying its appetite, but this spirit tea is something that can boost its thinking and allow it to settle down.
Zizi!
The clear and transparent tea line rushes into the cup, rippling out an amazing fragrance.
After a set of procedures, Fang Yuan's eyes were clear, and he forgot all his mundane thoughts. Even the white sable sitting across from him was solemnly sitting cross-legged, as if he had realized something.
"please!"
Fang Yuan divided the tea into cups and handed another cup to Bai Diao.
One man and one beast sat opposite each other, drinking tea slowly, enjoying themselves.
"Hmm... Diao'er's mind is pure, and she seems to have an understanding of Master's tea ceremony..."
Seeing this scene, Fang Yuan suddenly felt joy in his heart.
This feeling is the same as when Layman Wenxin saw that he could comprehend the way of sitting and forgetting.
"Passing the torch from generation to generation! This is the true meaning of civilization inheritance..."
Fang Yuan sighed silently, and seemed to sense the ignorant and curious emotions around him, turned his head, and immediately met Bai Diao's ignorant eyes.
"I can actually feel the white sable's thoughts?"
He suddenly came to his senses, but found that he could no longer enter the mysterious state just now.
"If I can maintain this state often, maybe one day, I will be able to talk to you directly!"
Fang Yuan touched the white sable's head and sighed.
It's a pity that he is still far from this realm that is almost like supernatural powers and spells.
"Let's go! Go and fertilize the tea tree!"
After thinking for a while, Fang Yuan stood up, clapped his hands and said, "It's also fortunate that you sent the spiritual fertilizer, otherwise the production of the Wenxin tea tree would not be enough for the two of us to consume like this..."
He came to the edge of the tea tree, opened a cloth bag, and sprinkled grains of spiritual fertilizer down.
Mink beside him used his paws to cooperate with loosening the soil, and the cooperation between the man and the beast was quite harmonious.
It's just that if this scene is seen by other outsiders, I don't know how many eyes will fall in shock.
"White Sable, may I give you a name?"
"Chuck?"
"Well, I remember that in the dream world, there also seems to be a legendary mink that is very powerful. It is a mythical beast in "Fengshen Yanyi". It is said that it is shaped like a white mouse. , flaring teeth and dancing claws, ruthless wind and fire, devouring the world. The name is 'Huahu Diao', what do you want to call you?"
Fang Yuan ignored the white sable's soft and shiny white fur, and said directly.
"Chuck?!"
"Well, if you don't object, then I'll take it as your agreement, Huahu Diao! Haha!"
Fang Yuan was very proud and smiled brightly.
...
Beyond the valley.
"Uncle Lin, the expert you mentioned is here?"
Brother and sister Zhou Wenxin, who had met Fang Yuan once, took a few wealthy servants and trekked hard in the mountains and forests with Lin Yuanwai.
Especially Zhou Wenxin, who is a young lady who does not touch the spring water with her ten fingers, looking at the missing path at this time, she really wants to cry but has no tears.
"Hey... I've advised my sister before, just wait for the news at home, why bother to trek through mountains and rivers with us?"
The second elder brother of the Zhou family persuaded.
"Does he just want to show his filial piety to Daddy..."
Zhou Wenxin was already regretting it, but she pouted and refused to admit it.
"Hehe... two virtuous nephews and nieces, Yougu is almost here!"
Lin Yuan was standing beside him, but his face was ruddy, he didn't take a breath, and said with a smile: "As for the Layman Wenxin, he is a real expert... But unfortunately you have come here, he has already gone west , only my nephew Fang is left, and he has inherited some of his true medical skills, even if it can't be called rejuvenation, it's quite good..."
In fact, Yuanwai Lin didn't have much confidence in Fang Yuan's medical skills.
However, he knew that Layman Wenxin's master and apprentice had good planting skills, and they lived in the deep mountains. There should be a lot of old medicinal materials in reserve, and there may be treasures among them.
If I give up my face, I should be able to get one or two plants to come over and form a fate with the Zhou family.
'Leiyue has just joined Guilingzong, so we should make good friends for her! '
In Lin Yuanwai's mind, he naturally had his own considerations.
Otherwise, with the current state of Fang Yuan and him, it would only be embarrassing to meet each other, so why would he send him to the door eagerly again?
"What? Only one disciple?"
Zhou Wenxin's face turned red, and she was about to have an attack. The young man immediately pulled her back: "This is Uncle Lin's kindness. Don't we know what kind of person he is? Don't be impulsive!"
Then he apologized to Member Lin: "My sister is rude. Don't blame Uncle Lin!"
"Hehe...my sister is so innocent and lively, the old man is also very envious!"
Member Lin replied with a smile, but in his heart he was glad that his daughters were not like Zhou Wenxin this week, otherwise the family would really be in trouble.
A group of people came out of the valley while talking.
"Nephew!"
As expected of Lin Yuanwai, who had experienced in the Jianghu for a long time, he didn't show any embarrassment at all, his voice was full of vigor, and spread far and wide.
"Eh? Lin Yuanwai? Why is he here again?"
Fang Yuan, who was weeding in the red jade rice field, raised his head, and a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes: "I'll go and see, Huahu Diao, you hide! Remember, you are not allowed to steal rice seedlings!"
This flower fox mink is too mysterious, Fang Yuan even planned to keep it secret as a trump card, naturally he didn't intend to show it in front of others.
"Clack!"
The white mink raised its head and glanced out of the valley. There seemed to be a hint of disdain in its big clever eyes. It lazily got up, turned into the plantation and disappeared.
Fang Yuan waited until the Huahu mink had completely disappeared, then straightened his clothes and came outside the valley: "Uncle Lin! I don't know why you came here this time?"
"Nephew, Uncle Lin has brought you two guests this time, let me introduce you, this one is..."
Lin Yuanwai smiled as if he was honoring Maitreya Buddha, but the next moment, Zhou Wenxin's sharp voice sounded: "You little thief!"
"Little thief?!"
Yuanwai Lin and Brother Tuesday were stunned.
"Second brother, he! It's him...he's the one who bullied me!"
Zhou Wenxin's face turned red, and she was so angry that she could speak incoherently.
"This girl!"
Fang Yuan frowned, he naturally recognized this unruly young lady.
It's just that the other party's words are too ambiguous, right? God is pitiful, I haven't even moved a single finger of her, so how can I be regarded as' insulting'?
"You... what are you still doing in a daze, catch him quickly!"
Seeing that Lin Yuanwai and Brother Zhou Zhou were still sluggish, Zhou Wenxin exploded again.
"Yes, miss!"
A few noble servants next to him suddenly stepped forward with unkind expressions.
"Wait a minute! I'm afraid there may be a misunderstanding?"
Member Lin stood in the middle of the few people, and said calmly: "My nephew, I was almost raised by the old man since he was a child, and he is definitely not the kind of person who wants to be vain!"
"Are you... the brother who sold red ginseng that day?"
Brother Zhou looked at Fang Yuan and recognized him.
He was also one of the insiders about what happened that day, and later went to investigate it carefully, but the result was dumbfounding.
But in all fairness, it's really not Fang Yuan's fault.
"Hehe... Maybe there is some misunderstanding..."
At this time, when Lin Yuanwai said this, he hurriedly said: "Exactly! Exactly!"
As a brother, he naturally has to treat his sister leniently, but this time he came here to ask for something, so he had to deal with it in a confusing manner.
