Knowing this, Lin Rufei didn't plan to release the buns directly. One is that the buns are really too thin and stupid. Who knows how long this little guy can live after being thrown out like this, and the other is that if the buns really have a grudge against the Fu family, he will put the buns in the Fu family. Near Zhuang, doesn't it mean that he has harmed him.
After thinking about it, the most appropriate way now is to take the buns with you, as long as you don't let the Fu family see them before you leave.
But this matter still has to be told to Fuhua Yurui in advance, after all, Momo spends most of the time with her.
When Fuhua heard that the steamed bun might have a bad relationship with the Fu family, she immediately took the little guy into her arms and hugged it distressedly, saying that the steamed bun is so small, what can she do to the Fu family, the entire village of the Fu family is strange Strange, if possible, I really want to leave early.
Lin Rufei thought about the same as she thought, planning to send out the invitation and leave immediately.
It's a pity that the fish will not be back for more than ten days, so I have to wait.
Because the first meeting with the Fu family was not very pleasant, in the following days, Lin Rufei did not take the initiative to contact the Fu family, but they came to Lin Rufei for dinner every three days. Especially the young master of the Fu family who was wearing purple clothes that I saw for the first time. He seemed very interested in Lin Rufei. He hit a nail here several times, and they all came over tirelessly, either inviting Lin Rufei to drink, or When Lin Rufei was invited to drink tea, Lin Rufei refused almost every time, without giving him any face.
Lin Rufei had nothing to do when she was idle, and she didn't like to stay in the Fu family's courtyard. Instead, she was more willing to go outside. Although there were ragged farmers everywhere outside Zhuangzi, the trees were shady, and the crops were exposed. The taste of the harvest, at least it seems that everywhere is full of vitality.
However, this was only Lin Rufei's first impression. When he got a deep understanding of the place outside Zhuangzi where crops were grown, he suddenly made a terrible discovery.
The soil in the crop field outside was actually the same as the one in the Zhuangzi, with a clear layer of white crystalline particles attached to it. Lin Rufei twisted some of it with her hands and took a closer look to confirm that it was salt.
"Saline-alkali land?" Lin Rufei asked incredulously, "How come it is also saline-alkali land outside?"
Gu Xuandu was also slightly surprised, and snorted.
It is also a saline-alkali land, and the soil inside the Zhuangzi does not grow any grass, but the crops outside the Zhuangzi are growing so well, and there is no effect of the soil on the plants.
Gu Xuandu pondered: "It seems that this Fujiazhuang is not as simple as I thought."
Lin Rufei asked curiously, "How do you say it?"
Gu Xuandu said: "When I first came here, I did feel the existence of the Spirit Gathering Array, but this thing is very common, so I didn't take it to heart. Now it seems that this is not an ordinary Spirit Gathering Array."
Gathering Spirit Array is a commonly used array method, which is usually used in farmers' crops. It can gather the surrounding spiritual energy to make the crops grow better. However, under normal circumstances, the effect of the spirit gathering array is very mild, but it has a slight impact. Most of the crops depend on the maintenance of farmers.
A gathering spirit formation that can grow crops in saline-alkali land is naturally unusual.
Lin Rufei frowned and said, "Could it be that the Fu family is using this spirit gathering array to make money?"
Gu Xuandu said: "Naturally there is such a possibility."
While he was talking, he ordered Lin Rufei to look around. Sure enough, he found a few smaller formation eyes not far away. Gu Xuan said that these formation eyes were all part of the spirit gathering formation. It seemed that the person who arranged the formation was indeed It is a large-scale effort, using countless small formations to finally form a large formation. But the eyes of the big array are more difficult to find, and it may exist in this area for dozens of miles.
Lin Rufei stayed in Fujiazhuang for a few days, and clearly felt that the people around had never practiced immortal methods, and most of them were mortals. Such a big formation must have something to do with Fu Yu who went out.
Lin Rufei strolled around in the cornfields, the weather was very hot, and even a thin layer of sweat appeared on his forehead, Lin Rufei coughed a few times, and said, "It seems that this Fish, is a powerful character." To be able to create such a large spirit gathering formation, I think he has extraordinary strength.
"If he can set up such a formation, it will be very powerful. But it's still very strange..." Gu Xuandu analyzed, "Even if there is a spirit gathering formation, there are not so many sources of spiritual energy. If you want to extract the saline-alkali land, you can plant it. The spiritual energy of the crops is probably not an easy task.” Everything is balanced, and the spiritual energy is not endless. The small spiritual gathering array absorbs the meager spiritual energy around it, but now this incomparably huge gathering spirit array , it is hard to say what exactly was absorbed.
"Could it be a spirit stone?" Lin Rufei asked.
Gu Xuandu shook his head: "Lingshi is so expensive, it is not something that mortals can afford. Even a big family like the Liu family doesn't necessarily have so many spiritual stones to support this place."
Then it was even more strange, Lin Rufei frowned and did not speak.
Gu Xuandu seemed to be interested, and said, "Anyway, we have nothing to do these days, why don't we spend more time looking for the eyes of the array and see what is different about the eyes of this great array. "
Lin Rufei said, "Also."
So the two, who were really bored every day, began to run out every day. Fuhua Yurui played with the buns at home, and the buns could have enough to eat, so he should be very happy, but he was a little gloomy, as if he had remembered something. However, when Fuhua and the others asked, he couldn't tell exactly why he was unhappy, and all he said were incomprehensible words.
It was the first time that Lin Rufei came into contact with the formation technique. Although she had been taught by Gu Xuandu, she was still a little unfamiliar. Gu Xuandu's temper was very patient. He instructed Lin Rufei little by little on how to find the source of the spiritual energy, and then followed the vine to touch the eyes of the array.
"It's amazing." Lin Rufei sighed while following Gu Xuandu's guidance, "Senior seems to know everything."
Gu Xuandu said, "He taught me well."
Lin Rufei said, "He?"
Gu Xuan looked up at him and said, "My... old friend." After he said the word old friend, he smiled first, "Be a teacher and a friend."
Lin Rufei could clearly feel that Gu Xuandu had a strange expression when he mentioned this person. He hesitated for a moment and asked tentatively, "Is there a good relationship between the senior and that person?"
"It's natural." Fortunately, Gu Xuandu didn't mind saying a few more words, he smiled and said, "No one has a better relationship with him than me."
Then, Gu Xuandu casually talked about his past, saying that he lost his parents early and was picked up by that old friend. That old friend was a powerful character, and from literacy to sword training, They are all taught by old friends, stroke by stroke, stroke by stroke.
"He has a good temper and rarely gets angry, no matter how stubborn I am..." After a few words, the appearance of an immortal master from the dust suddenly appeared in front of him. Gu Xuandu may not realize that when he talked about these At the time of the incident, there was a faint smile on his eyes and lips that could not be concealed, "Although I was talented at that time, I was very stubborn, and once injured him for sword training. There are many disciples under his sect. When something like this happened, I should have been kicked out, but he just kept me safe."
"Then he must be a good master." Lin Rufei responded.
"Yeah, good master." Gu Xuandu's mood fluctuated slightly, he closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, there was only peace in his eyes, and he repeated in a hoarse voice, "Good master..." He said After finishing, he cast his eyes on Lin Rufei.
For some reason, Lin Rufei inexplicably sensed a danger from Gu Xuandu's eyes, he pretended to look away calmly, and bluntly changed the subject: "Senior, let's stay away from the formation. How far is it?"
Gu Xuan is half-smiling: "You don't want to ask us what happened next?"
Lin Rufei said, "This is senior's private matter... If senior doesn't want to talk about it, I won't ask too much." Gu Xuandu's eyes stared at him in panic, and he even took a step back involuntarily, coughing lowly. Twice, "Don't force it."
Gu Xuandu burst into laughter, and while laughing, he approached Lin Rufei, almost touching the tip of Lin Rufei's nose, and said, "You are quite clever."
Lin Rufei: "..." He didn't know why Gu Xuan wanted to praise him for his cleverness, but thinking about it, he felt that he must have avoided something bad.
Gu Xuandu turned his back and waved his hand, and the dangerous aura on his body disappeared, and in an instant he returned to his usual sloppy senior, and he said, "Forget it, let's see what scares you. "
He didn't mention anything about that senior, but talked about his childhood experiences. It turned out that his experience was somewhat similar to that of Momo. He also lost his parents when he was very young, and grew up eating hundreds of family meals by himself. The suffering that such a child has endured is unimaginable. In summer, it is fine, but in winter, it will really kill people.
I can't get enough to eat, don't wear warm clothes, hide from the snow under the bridge, and don't even have a charcoal fire to keep warm, so I can only chop wood by myself every day. Don't dare to cut too much firewood, otherwise it will be snatched by other adults. When Gu Xuandu talked about these experiences, his expression was calm, as if he was talking about other people's stories, but Lin Rufei felt very distressed when he heard it, and even thought of the poor bun in Fujiazhuang at this time. bun.
Gu Xuandu seemed to know what he was thinking, and said lazily: "But I'm not a little idiot like Momo, I'm very clear-headed, I know who I can't mess with, and who can save my life. …”
Lin Rufei was not good at interjecting, but just hummed softly beside her.
"Fortunately, God didn't do everything right. Although I had a miserable life, I had a very good root, and because of a coincidence, I fell into his door." Gu Xuandu said and nodded his head. , "It's a lot better than that stupid bun, right?"
Lin Rufei heard the words, and she scoffed at how naive the senior could be. He was a few hundred years old, and he was so energetic compared to a little baby who didn't understand anything. Of course, he definitely didn't dare to say these words, so he echoed a few words next to him, saying how that steamed bun compares with the smart senior.
Gu Xuandu said: "After that, things will be much better. At least you can eat and wear warmly, and you don't have to worry about freezing to death under the bridge."
Lin Rufei originally wanted to ask a few more questions, but she felt that her question was a little offended, so she didn't ask. Gu Xuan was almost done talking, and then he talked about formations and sword training, and told Lin Rufei to throw away his black wooden shield as soon as possible. Beaten with a wooden shield, the name of the Lin Family Sword Immortal is no longer needed.
Lin Rufei was reluctant. Although he could barely control Gu Yu now, even Yu Jian was crooked, far less stable than a wooden shield. Although the wooden shield was very ordinary, once the sword energy was attached to it, it was also a powerful weapon. , that is, the sale is a little bit different, there is no big problem.
Gu Xuan was stunned by Lin Rufei's stubbornness, and said, "Young Master Lin, Young Master Lin - you are a serious swordsman who runs around with a shield every day." This wooden shield is really ugly. Dark, round or square, Lin Rufei was born beautiful, but seeing such a weak and sick beauty running around with a huge wooden shield on her back made her eyes really irritate. When it comes to wooden shields, Mo Zhaocai must be blamed. If he hadn't lied to Lin Rufei, how could Lin Rufei have opened the door to this new world.
But Gu Xuandu's persuasion seems to be useless at present. Lin Rufei resolutely decided not to use him rudely until he has fully mastered Gu Yu. After all, the sword is like a beauty, and he can't bear to learn from Gu Xuandu. Style, holding the big beauty as a fire stick.
The big formation of the Fu family is indeed very large. After searching for a long time, it was only a little closer to the formation, and could not be found. Fortunately, Gu Xuan said that with the effort of the past few days, he should be able to find it. But just when Lin Rufei felt that she was about to find her, there was a small accident - Fu Yu came back early.
On the day Fu Yu came back, it was raining heavily.
The rain in summer is not at all as mild as in winter and spring, accompanied by lightning and thunder, like pouring. A large amount of rain dilutes the hot summer heat and brings a touch of fresh air to the desolate Fu's yard. Lin Rufei was sitting in front of the window watching the heavy rain, smelling the fragrance of the mixture of rainwater and soil in her nose, and playing with the floating flowers behind him. When they met, she felt a lot more energetic, and her thin face seemed to have a little more flesh. Lin Rufei quietly pinched the floating flowers on her back and nodded in admiration for this hand. I don't know why, but this child's face feels very good, smooth and tender and very flattering. The most important thing is that Momo didn't cry when she was pinched, she just looked at Lin Rufei blankly, as if she didn't understand why Lin Rufei did this.
When Lin Rufei pinched Momo's face, Gu Xuandu looked beside him, his expression was neither yin nor yang. In order to avoid Gu Xuandu reaching out his hand, Lin Rufei didn't dare to pinch more, and gave up after reluctantly.
The eldest son of the Fu family, Fu Yu, came back in the heavy rain. Although Lin Rufei couldn't see what he looked like because of the heavy rain, it was vaguely visible that a group of people held an umbrella and respectfully welcomed him back to the Fu family yard. . Surrounded by about a dozen concubines and servants holding umbrellas, the flirting and laughing voices even penetrated the harsh rain curtain and reached Lin Rufei's ears.
This is Fu Yu, the backbone of the Fu family, Lin Rufei looked at him, but felt that he was very different from the person she imagined.
There is neither character nor momentum, and at a glance, you can see that he is not a qualified swordsman.
The invitations were all about powerful characters. After seeing characters like Liu Rugong, and seeing the mediocre Fu Yu in front of him, he would feel a little disappointed.
Lin Rufei raised her hand and closed the window, isolating the laughter from outside.
But Momo looked up and stared out the window blankly, as if he felt something, he kept muttering in his mouth, and even wanted to jump out of Fuhua's arms and run outside.
Fu Hua was not sure, so, afraid of being seen, she hugged him tightly, and even took out candy bars to appease her mood. However, the sugar cubes, which were always easy to use, were useless at the moment. Momo whimpered aggrievedly, and big tears fell down his eyes. He sobbed and struggled, as if the people outside the window were his salvation.
Fu Hua didn't dare to let go, until Fu Yu left, Momo calmed down again. He turned into the clever, stupid kid he used to be, eating candy in small bites and stopped talking.
"Fu Yu is back." Lin Rufei said.
Fu Hua said, "Fu Yu is back? Why did Mo Mo react so much to this Fu Yu?"
Lin Rufei shook her head to indicate that she did not know.
"Could it be that the death of Momo's parents has anything to do with Fu Yu?" Yurui guessed, "That's why Momo wants to go out..."
Everyone's eyes fell on Momo, he was still ignorant and obviously couldn't ask anything from his mouth.
"Tomorrow Fuyu will probably invite me for a banquet." Lin Rufei said, "I'll try to inquire as carefully as possible."
That's all there is to it.
Lin Rufei even hoped that Momo was the lost child of the Fu family, not the enemy of the Fu family, so that he could safely keep Momo in the Fu family. Although the Fu family was like a nouveau riche, it seemed at least right. The kids are fine. And if Mo was the descendant of the Fu family's enemy, he could only take Mo Mo quietly away from the Fu family. As for how to settle down, it will be a matter of the future. There is always a way.
Although it rained heavily that night, Fu's house was still very lively, and the lights remained on almost all night. The Fu family also invited Lin Rufei to come over, but Lin Rufei refused on the grounds that she was not feeling well. The Fu family knew that Lin Rufei had a cold attitude from beginning to end, so they did not force it.
The clattering rain couldn't cover up the cacophonous noise, Lin Rufei was so upset by the noise that she could hardly sleep.
Gu Xuan saw him tossing and turning and couldn't fall asleep, showing a look of hesitation. He said that he might as well just go out and kill the entire Fu family.
Lin Rufei hurriedly refused.
Seeing his serious expression, Gu Xuan smiled and said, "I'm just joking."
Lin Rufei said: "Well... it's better to be a joke." Gu Xuandu's attitude really made him uncertain, saying it was a joke, if he really responded casually, the next day he saw the Fu family's hundreds of corpses lying there. On the ground, I am afraid there is no place to cry.
Gu Xuandu said, "Then what if you can't sleep?"
Lin Rufei shook her head and said, "It's fine, I've already gotten used to it." When he fell ill on Kunlun, he either slept for three or four days at a time, or it was difficult to fall asleep. Such a little trouble would not matter.
Gu Xuandu sighed softly when he heard the words, and stopped talking, but when he looked out the window, there was a little bit of coldness in his eyes.
Lin Rufei hardly slept that night, and only took a nap in a daze in the early hours of the morning. After dawn, the rain stopped, and when Lin Rufei got up from the bed, she felt unwell and coughed intermittently. Fu Hua looked at her worriedly, only to find that Lin Rufei was feverish again.
These illnesses were already normal for Lin Rufei, he didn't care much, and after drinking a dose of medicine, he asked Fu Hua to tell Fu Yu, saying that he would come to see him later.
Fu Hua was a little worried and said, "Master, let's ask Lang Zhong to take a look first. You are weak and can't be dragged. It's not too late to see Fu Yu or something."
Lin Rufei shook her head and said, "We are guests after all, so it's not a good idea to leave the host aside." Although he neither likes to pay the family nor pay the fish, the basic etiquette must be observed.
Seeing that Lin Rufei's attitude was firm, Fu Hua couldn't persuade her any more, so she could only go out.
Yurui took the buns to the small kitchen and planned to make some light food for Lin Rufei to eat.
Lin Rufei was dizzy and drowsy. She leaned on the head of the bed and closed her eyes. She could faintly hear footsteps coming from outside. She opened her eyes and saw Fu Hua standing at the door, panting, with an embarrassed expression on her face. She called, "Master."
Lin Rufei hummed.
Fu Hua lowered her voice: "Mr. Fu Yu heard that you are ill, and I don't want to bother you to go there again... So... I want to come over in person." After she finished speaking, she pointed to the door, indicating that Fu Yu was outside.
Lin Rufei frowned. He was still lying on the bed and did not wash up. It would be too abrupt to see guests like this.
But the person was already at the door, so he couldn't be driven away. Lin Rufei thought for a moment, then let Fu Hua go out and told Fu Yu to wait outside, while she got up from the bed, changed her clothes, and simply tidied up her appearance.
Only then did Fu Hua invite someone in.
After Fu Yu entered the door with Fu Hua, he bowed to Lin Rufei with a smile, and called Young Master Lin quite politely.
Lin Rufei leaned back on the chair, coughed twice, and said, "Young Master Fu." He finally saw Fu Yu's appearance. Yesterday, he could only hear his voice but not his appearance, but it was not as impressive as the impression he had seen today. .
This Fuyu doesn't seem to be very old, with sword-like eyebrows and star-shaped eyes, and his appearance is not bad, but there is a frivolous smell flowing between his eyebrows.
"I heard about Mr. Lin's name earlier, but when I saw him today, it was really extraordinary." Fu Yu smiled, "I have been out for a few days, so I have troubled Mr. Lin for a long time." He said, showing concern again, said "Why does Young Master Lin cough so badly, but is he not feeling well?"
Lin Rufei said: "It's just that I accidentally caught the cold, and it's not a big problem."
Fu Yu said: "Oh, the weather is hot, and it is indeed easy to catch typhoid fever because of the cold. Young Master Lin must be careful."
Seeing that the courtesy was almost over, Lin Rufei took out the invitation card in her arms and wanted to hand it to Fu Yu. Who knew that Yurui, who was making porridge outside, happened to come in. As soon as she entered the door, her smile froze when she saw Fu Yu. On his face, Fu Yu also looked at her, but this gaze fell on Momo, who was held in Yurui's arms.
Fu Yu's expression changed instantly, and he said angrily, "Why are you here!"
Momo was yelled at by Fu Yu, and he burst into tears when he opened his mouth.
The author has something to say: Gu Xuandu: Don't pinch him, the feel of my Gu Xuandu's face is thousands of times better than his!
Lin Rufei: You, a hundred-year-old old man, are not blushing.
Gu Xuandu: Humph, I also have a soft face at a few hundred years old
Lin Rufei: …
