The green light spot of the wolf's eyes disappeared, the wind blew through the night, and it was silent for a moment.

"What about after calling?" You Miao said.

Li Zhifeng: "The alpha wolf came out to fight me and was killed by me."

Li Zhifeng held You Miao in his left hand, and his right hand was slender between his five fingers. He casually played with a wooden arrow. The long arrow circled between his fingers, and the cluster of arrows flashed an arc of light in the dark night.

"And then?" You Miao asked again.

Li Zhifeng said: "Of course I was killed by me. I was bitten several times, and I was lying on my own in the desert."

You Miao thought of the scene where Li Zhifeng was covered in blood, lying with the wolf king's body in the middle of the desert, and said, "Didn't the wolves catch up?"

Li Zhifeng replied lightly, "No."

You Miao said again, "What are you doing lying there?"

"Look at the moon." Li Zhifeng replied in a low voice.

The desert, the bright moon, the wolves... and among the silver light, Li Zhifeng, who was lying in the middle of the desert.

After the snow in the Tianshan Mountains, the sea was cold, and the flute was blowing everywhere. It was difficult to travel, and 300,000 people were recruited.

You Miao imagined the distant scene, leaning in Li Zhifeng's arms, fell asleep in a daze, and in the silent night, there seemed to be barking dogs and human voices coming from the far end of the unfamiliar road.

Li Zhifeng's ears moved slightly, the wooden arrow that was spinning between his fingers stopped, and the arm holding You Miao was released, letting him lean on him, picking up the longbow beside the two of them, and bending the bow and arrow, pointing at the two of them. A dark night road.

"Could it be that I ran into a wolf..."

"Walked all night and never came..."

Li Zhifeng narrowed his eyes slightly. At this time, the dark clouds receded, a full moon hung from the ceiling, and the surroundings were slightly brighter.

You Miao woke up. When he opened his eyes, he saw Li Zhifeng holding an arrow. He immediately turned his head to look at where he was coming from. A dog barked fiercely and was stopped by the villagers who were leading it.

"It's the young master!"

"Young Master You!"

"It's found..."

Li Zhifeng put down his arrow, and You Miao woke up and realized that these people were here to pick him up.

The tenants gathered around and asked questions. It turned out that it was less than five miles away from Jiangbo Mountain Villa. You Miao tossed around in the middle of the night, and was exhausted physically and mentally. Several tenants pushed the carriage out of the ditch. Under the clear light of Langyue, he took the two into the villa.

Youmiao had slept that night, and when she woke up the next day, she found herself lying on a shabby bed, covered with a quilt brought from home, itchy all over, scratched a few times, yawned and sat up.

Li Zhifeng got up from the ground with his hair disheveled, which surprised You Miao.

"What place is this?" You Miao said.

"Jiangbo Villa." Li Zhifeng replied, tucking his hair, then got up and went out to fetch water to wash You Miao's face.

You Miao sat on the bed with the quilt in her arms, turned her head to look around, vaguely remembering how she got in last night—it was a bit confused in the middle of the night, and she took a carriage into the villa in a hazy state. Li Zhifeng was driving the car in front, and he was in the car. Going to bed, the tenants didn't say much after arriving. When they were led in, Li Zhifeng got into the car and said something You Miao couldn't remember.

"What did you tell me last night?" You Miao asked.

There was a sound of water outside, and Li Zhifeng replied, "I said, I'll pack the side room first, and I'll take care of it and sleep for a night. I'll sweep the main room today."

You Miao nodded and saw Li Zhifeng pouring the water from the wooden barrel into the copper basin outside the pane, and then came in and put the copper basin on the charcoal stove to boil water.

"I'll do it myself." You Miao said. He knew that he couldn't wait for others to serve him at this time. He had to do many things himself. First, he was not familiar with the new environment, and secondly, he didn't hire anyone. Only one Li Zhifeng is really good to himself, good steel must be used on the edge of the blade, and he can't let him do everything, otherwise it won't be worth it if he is exhausted.

Li Zhifeng said, "You rest."

You Miao got up and put on her own clothes, and said, "I think since I'm here, I guess it's time to keep things simple." Then he pushed open the window, the sun was shining outside, the winter was bright, and the endless field was full of sunshine.

You Miao smelled the smell of the wilderness, and the whole person was in a good mood.

"What is growing outside?" You Miao has always been indifferent to the four and the five grains. He leaned on the window sill and looked out, realizing that the land here is his, the house is his, chickens, ducks, fish, streams. , mountains, woods... These are all his.

Li Zhifeng replied, "I don't know."

He put the towel next to You Miao, wiped his ears and face, put on his shoes after changing his clothes, and said, "Let's go out and have a look today."

"Well." Li Zhifeng said.

You Miao asked again, "How do you have breakfast?"

When You Miao asked this sentence, she realized that there was a big problem. This place is no better than Biyu Villa. There is no cook, no servant, everything has to be done by hand. Fortunately, when I left the day before yesterday, I bought some food in Jiangcheng and came back. I mixed the fried noodles with some water, warmed it up, and I could eat it right away.

Li Zhifeng said, "The woman from the tenant's house brought breakfast."

You Miao happily went out, but she was a little dumbfounded as soon as she walked out of the side room.

The sun is still bright, the yard is dilapidated, barren and messy, with tattered moss-covered terracotta jars piled in the corners, weeds stretch out in front of the slate, the shadow wall is covered by creepers, and the reels of a well are rotten to pieces , crooked to one side.

Last night, when Li Zhifeng came in with him, You Miao didn't look carefully at all. Now that he saw it during the day, it was completely different from the night.

"Interesting." You Miao said to Li Zhifeng.

He took Li Zhifeng through the corridor to the front yard. Most of the tiles on the roof porch collapsed, and all the walls in the back yard in the distance collapsed. At first glance, the sky was clear.

This shabby place... You Miao couldn't help laughing and crying when she saw it, but for some reason, the scenery was not as peaceful as a paradise. Perhaps it was because of this that her mother liked Jiangbo Villa back then and bought this piece of land.

There are no mountains in the way, the view is wide, the sky is full of clouds and clouds, as long as it is well decorated and thoughtful, it will definitely become very beautiful in time.

You Miao smiled and said, "This is the first time I live in this kind of house."

Li Zhifeng nodded, You Miao walked to the front yard, and immediately stopped laughing.

This is a villa! It's just a ruined temple!

The doors, windows, tables and chairs were all rotten, and there was nothing intact at all. There were spider webs everywhere, and a few women in the corridor were chatting in low voices. When they saw You Miao and Li Zhifeng, they immediately hid.

"Hey! Where are you going?" You Miao said.

The women were dressed in dirty and poor clothes, and hid behind the house in a hurry. He didn't say anything, and stepped into the main room with his feet up. There was no place to step inside. In front of the dark back wall was a pot of boiled noodles, two broken bowls, and a plate of pickles.

You Miao: "… "

"Did you bring a bowl?" You Miao asked.

"No." Li Zhifeng took the chopsticks in front of the case and went outside. A well was covered with thick dead leaves and moss, and a man's voice said, "There is water here."

Li Zhifeng took the tenant's half bucket of water and carefully washed the chopsticks. The tenant outside asked, "Is the young master up?"

Li Zhifeng said, "We'll all wait outside the second gate, and I'll order you after eating."

The tenants backed out, You Miao listened with a smile, Li Zhifeng was a bit of a housekeeper when he said this. After a while, You Miao ate something casually. Although the food was simple, the noodles were simply mixed with a little salt, but he was hungry. One night, You Miao still devoured a small half-pot. I just feel that the noodles are smooth and fragrant, and the salted radish is sour and crunchy. It couldn't be better.

On weekdays at home, You Miao doesn’t even look at this meal. This Jiangbo Villa seems to be very poor. He doesn’t even put eggs when he cooks noodles, but You Miao doesn’t know that in ordinary poor people, a meal is even fine. The food is all delusional. If you use thick steamed buns with some pickles, you can make a meal. It is enough to send the noodles rolled out of white noodles.
