The cook at Sister Xiao's house was really good at cooking. Ning Huanxin ordered two more side dishes, and each dish tasted particularly good.
And the legendary mountain vegetable chicken soup is even more delicious.
"The wild vegetables here are so delicious, so there must be a lot of repeat customers, right?"
When Ning Huanxin was full, she turned to chat with Sister Xiao and her family.
"Well, there are a lot of repeat customers, but the temperature difference between morning and evening in this mountain is big, and it's only better in midsummer. So we have a lot of tourists here in midsummer, but at other times... there are very few guests."
Xiao Damei was very talkative like Xiao Dazhong, and Ning Huanxin noticed that Xiao Damei had been using a calculator. She remembered that during the day, Xiao Damei had also been calculating accounts.
However, there were not many customers in this store, so what on earth was she thinking
Ning Huanxin took another look with some curiosity: "Sister, are you settling the accounts? Are there any accounts that don't match up? I think you've been doing the accounting for a long time."
"Uh, it's nothing."
Hearing Ning Huanxin's words, Sister Xiao suddenly looked strange, and she immediately pushed the calculator aside.
"Actually, I just calculate this month's income and expenses, as well as the wages for chefs and waiters. I have no education and am not good at arithmetic."
With that said, Sister Xiao walked out of the service desk.
"I heard the weather forecast said it will rain tomorrow, and the temperature is expected to drop tonight. I'll go upstairs first and add a quilt to Miss Gu's room."
With that said, Sister Xiao hurried upstairs.
No matter how you look at that back figure, it looks like you are running away.
She was... flustered, as if she was afraid she knew something.
Ning Huanxin's eyes flashed -
This is really interesting!
Is there some secret in this small village ten miles away from the mountains that we don’t want outsiders to know
… …
At night, there was thunder outside the window, and soon after, it started to rain. The rain was not very heavy, but it could still be heard clearly in the room.
Ning Huanxin hasn't fallen asleep yet, but the room is very clean. Sister Xiao also brought an extra quilt for Ning Huanxin, so Ning Huanxin doesn't feel the coldness of the night at all.
She just kept thinking about the Shili Mountain and the Misty Valley.
The Misty Valley is actually part of the Shili Mountain. Although the Misty Valley is rumored to be very scary, Ning Huanxin has not encountered any strange things while going in and out of it.
There is indeed a lot of yin energy and resentment outside the foggy valley, but as long as you use your own mental power and consciousness to enter the fog, there will be no danger even if you get lost in it. As long as you have stronger mental strength, you will be able to get out of it soon.
Therefore, not to mention monks and warriors, even ordinary people, as long as they have a strong consciousness or a strong sense of direction, they will not be lost forever!
perhaps…
Ning Huanxin turned her head subconsciously and looked at the glass window. She could vaguely see the raindrops hitting the window.
It's not the fog that keeps those people from getting out, but something or even some people in the Misty Valley.
Ning Huanxin thought of the village in the valley again, and of Dabao and Erbao. She really cared too much about it—
What did Erbao mean when he said, "It will be the same soon?"
… …
While Ning Huan was filled with worries, Xiao Damei and his wife, who lived under the same roof, could not fall asleep for a long time listening to the sound of rain at night.
"I heard that Fan Laosan fell ill again today."
Sister Xiao was lying on the bed with a complicated tone.
"I also heard about it when I came back from the purchase."
Wei Shuangquan's honest face on the side was full of sadness: "Yuzhu has been missing for several years, and Fan Laosan just can't let go. He is always wandering outside the Forbidden Valley. There is no way to continue like this!"
