The old lady hurriedly put the clay pot on the stove, took out the food bag inside, and was about to return it to Qingyan, "Young lady, we have enough food at home, and we don't know how to thank you, you should have a meal." It should be shared, how can the girl pay for the food by herself."

Qingyan took a few steps back, and said with a smile: "I bought this when I came here today. I didn't expect to encounter heavy rain. You can see that this bag is all wet, and I can't keep it for a few days. Why don't you put it away now?" It did."

Although this bag of food was just taken out by Chou Chou, the basket had been hanging under the car all the time, so the rain did make the basket wet before, so now the bag is really stained with a lot of water.

In fact, it was only the bag that was wet, and nothing had seeped into it, as long as the bag was changed, everything would be fine, Qingyan was just making an excuse.

Because of Qingyan's insistence, the old lady couldn't refuse anymore, but she said she didn't want the rabbit. "We are ashamed to receive this food. You can keep this rabbit for yourself. Keqin often goes hunting in the mountains. There are many people in the kitchen." Less dried wild animals, let's just eat that."

Qingyan shook her head directly, "I don't necessarily stay with you for a day or two, isn't this rabbit stinky, your air-dried one can be put away, but this is not acceptable.

I caught this in the wild on the roadside on the way I came here, and it’s fine to catch fresh ones when the time comes. If you feel uncomfortable, let Brother Keqin teach me how to tan leather.

We also often hunt some prey, but we just throw away the leather without tanning, which is too wasteful. "

In fact, no, those skins that were beaten before, when they were with everyone in Yangjiaping, were simply tanned by Yang Erzhuang with plant ash and then sewed together.

The prey that Chou Chou secretly harvested was not wasted, they were all piled up in its space, but they couldn't be used without tanning.

Seeing what she said, the old lady looked at her son.

Yin Keqin also stood at the door of the kitchen at some point, and agreed without saying a word, took the rabbit from her hand, and said to Qingyan as he walked out: "It's actually quite troublesome to tan the leather, but it's also easy. Methods.

I can tell you the steps right now, Miss Hengyue is smart, I guess you can learn it after I tell you, let's make it in the yard. "

Qingyan nodded and followed him out of the kitchen.

The old lady put the food aside first, and boiled hot water for her son to clean up the rabbits. The rabbits need to eat for a while, otherwise the meat will not be soft.

What Qingyan took out was flour, and when the rabbit was stewed, she could bake flatbread in another pot.

Qingyan followed Yin Keqin to the yard, and watched him skillfully peel off the skin completely, admiring him very much.

She can also peel rabbit skin, which she learned from Yang Erzhuang before, but she is not so proficient, and the skin she peels off is not very complete.

Later, when eating rabbits and pheasants, they were cooked by Ugly and then made for her, making them very clean.

There is still a difference between hunting occasionally and those who make a living by hunting exclusively. Professionals and amateurs are really different.

Qingyan memorized all the steps of his skinning, and then listened to him explain the simplest method of tanning leather.

It is similar to Yang Erzhuang's method, which is to clean it up, soak it with plant ash, and then let it dry.

After the rabbit was cleaned up, Yin Keqin carried it into the kitchen, and then there was a sound of Dangdang, it should be that he was chopping up the rabbit.

Qingyan sat on a small bench in the courtyard, and just as she sat down, someone came in from the courtyard door.

Just as Qingyan was about to call Yin Keqin to have a guest, the other party came towards her, still shouting: "Oh! Girl, I was too busy running for my life before, and I didn't thank you for saving my life. Please slow down." I'm here.

We don't have any good things in the backcountry. This is a little wish from my family. I hope the girl won't dislike it. "

Immediately afterwards, there was an extra basket in Qingyan's arms, and inside was a piece of neatly folded coarse cloth, which should have been spun by herself.

She quickly pushed back, "I can't do it, I can't do it, I'm just saving myself, and it's not a kindness to you."

The two were saying goodbye to each other, and a few more people came to the gate of the courtyard, and then a dozen more came one after another, all holding things in their hands, including eggs, a chicken, and some dry goods from the mountains, anyway.

When the old lady heard the voice, she also came out of the kitchen. Seeing the expression on Qingyan's face begging for help, not only did she not help her refuse the thank-you gifts from these villagers, but she also followed her to persuade her to accept these wishes.

In the end, those people just dropped their things and ran away. The old lady went back to the kitchen and continued cooking. Qingyan looked at the things on the ground and couldn't help but smile.

She sent a voice transmission to Chou Chou: "This is the first time I feel that others are too enthusiastic and scary. What should I do with these things? If I accept them, I'm too embarrassed."

Chou Chou: "Accept it, we saved them in the first place, otherwise they would all die there, you don't have to feel guilty about accepting it."

Qingyan sighed, "It's easy for you to say, how can I put so many things? The carriage will be full."

Chou Chou couldn't help but rolled his eyes, "Eat the food in the past two days, and then return the baskets, and there will be nothing left in the end."

"Ok."

Qingyan carried the food, eggs, and chickens directly into the kitchen, and before the two of them could speak, she spoke first: "I will stay here for two more days, let's eat these, and I will eat the rest. Leave.

By the way, I have to ask my aunt to take me to return those baskets and baskets. I can't tell which one belongs to which one. "

The old lady was choked back before she could say a word, she shook her head and smiled as she answered. Fortunately, they gave a lot of variety and not much in quantity, so she should be able to finish it with three meals and three meals in the past two days.

The chicken was still alive, so she put it under a bamboo basket first, and killed it again when eating.

There are a lot of eggs, so she directly scrambled a scrambled egg with green onions, which is a perfect match with flatbread.

Their family did not raise chickens, but they had raised chickens before. Because they were close to the mountain, they were always stolen by wild animals that came down from the mountain at night. After that, they didn't bother to raise chickens. Anyway, their family did not lack meat.

This dinner gave Qingyan a full belly, she felt that these meals were even more delicious than the ones in restaurants.

This dish is a home-cooked recipe, without any big ingredients, but it is very fragrant, people want to eat it after eating it, and can't help but eat more.

Especially the plate of scrambled eggs with green onions, paired with freshly baked crispy flatbread, it is so delicious.

This kind of home-cooked meal is incomparable to the taste in restaurants. Of course, the premise is that the person who cooks is good at cooking.

Obviously, the old lady's cooking skills are very good. She thought the radish stewed cabbage in the illusion was delicious, and thought it was beautified by her own imagination. She didn't expect the old lady's cooking skills to be better in reality.

After dinner, it was still dark, the old lady and Yin Keqin were not in a hurry to leave this time, the three of them sat in the main room and chatted.

Qingyan asked them: "What are your future plans? The ancestors in the sacrificial place have disappeared. Will you leave here or stay in the village to continue living?"

The reason why she asked this was because she knew that they wanted to leave here before.

The old lady and Yin Keqin looked at each other, and after thinking for a while, she said: "The reason why I wanted to leave was because of Keqin's sister and brother. I was afraid that they would be chosen as living sacrifices. Who knows that they still didn't escape death?" robbery.

Now we are the only ones left, it doesn’t matter where we are in the future, we have lived everywhere, and we are familiar with each other in the village.

The only idea now is to bring back the bones of his father and elder brother and sister, bury them in the ancestral grave, and stop being a lonely ghost, but I don’t know if we can be so far away from the village. If we are gone, there will be no one to go to the grave in the future All gone. "

Because Yin Keqin's father, brother and sister escaped, they were not allowed to be buried in the ancestral grave. Because the place where they died was too far away, there was no way to transport the bones back, so they were directly buried in the nearby mountains.

The two of them didn't even have a chance to take a look, because they were far away from the village, and even the two of them died outside in the end, so the whole family would be extinct.

The news of the death of the father and son was reported by people from the government. They gave the yamen servant some money and asked them to help them bury it there.

Fortunately, the yamen servant probably knew some unusual things about Qi Nian Village, so he didn't refuse, and even made a special trip to tell them the approximate location after the burial.

They all wrote it down, and every year when it was crowded, they would recall that location, thinking that if they could go out there one day, they could move them back, or go there to worship.

Qingyan nodded, "Don't worry, there will be no obstacles for you to go out in the future, once Yin Jin disappears, the formation here will also be destroyed.

The reason why you couldn't leave here too far was not because of the curse or the formation, but because your ancestors had a contract with Yin Jin.

Now that the owner of the contract has disappeared, the contract has also disappeared. I was sacrificed by the illusion before, and I knew the reason by coincidence. "

In fact, she and Chou Chou had studied the contract. If their ancestors were still alive, they would die together when Yin Jin died. Just stay where they left off.

Before, they couldn't stay too far away from Yin Jin, which was already scary, but now they are completely free, even if Yin Jin hasn't died yet, but he was sent into the space by Chou Chou, which means he is cut off from the world, it's nothing like death the difference.

When the mother and son heard this, smiles from the bottom of their hearts appeared on their faces.

After more than ten years, they can finally worship their husband/father, son/brother, daughter/sister.

Now that there is no obstruction from the patriarch and those elders in the village, they should be able to move their bones back directly.

The rest of the villagers are people with the same illness as them, and they should not object. Some people's families have escaped from Qi Nian Village, otherwise everyone would not say that as long as they stay away from the village, they will die outside.

So if you go and tell those people the good news, then everyone can go out together and bring back all the people who died in foreign lands.

It just so happens that the patriarch's branch is dead, and they have a bullock cart at home, so it should be no problem to use it at that time. At that time, they can buy a coffin in the town, pick up the bones in the coffin, pull them back, and bury them in the ancestral grave in the back mountain .

The three chatted for a while, and then went back to their rooms to rest.

Qingyan still went to the house in the illusion before, and only now did she know that this house belonged to the old lady's daughter, and it has been kept for more than ten years, presumably the old lady really loves that daughter.

Let Chouchou take out the basin and water for a brief wash, took off the outer jacket and lay down in bed in unlined clothes.

As soon as I lay down in the bed, I was shivering from the cold air in the bed. The temperature at night was a bit low. I don't know if it was because of the heavy rain before, but it felt much colder than yesterday in the inn.

Qingyan misses the feeling of sleeping with Little Leopard and Chouchou in her arms, they are like a small stove, and Little Leopard sleeps next to her, and she is not used to it when he suddenly disappears.

"Chou Chou, is it okay to have money? How is it now? How long will it take to come out?"

Chou Chou replied: "It won't work in a short period of time, at least it will take ten days and a half months, and the drop of essence and blood must be slowly fused. Don't worry, nothing will happen if I protect it.

But you have to be mentally prepared, it may change in appearance after it comes out, and it shouldn't be too similar to the previous one. "

Qingyan wondered: "Could it be possible that after merging the essence and blood, can you still become that Qiongqi? Won't it also grow wings and become like a tiger?

No, it is a leopard. How could a leopard turn into a tiger?These are totally two species. "

Chou Chou shrugged: "I can't say for sure, anyway, there will definitely be changes. As for what it will look like, it's hard to say.

But if it really has wings, it will be even more difficult to appear in front of people in the future. I am afraid that most of the time I have to stay in my space, or hide in the carriage. "

For a moment, Qingyan didn't know whether to be happy for the little leopard or feel bad for it. In the future, she might only be able to hide in the ugly space, and it was difficult to think about it.

Of course, it is also possible to become like a normal beast, as long as it does not become weird, then it can only hide in the dark.

Thinking of what Chou Chou said before that living things can enter the space, anyway, he can’t sleep now, so he said to it: “Then can I go into your space to have a look now? Anyway, I can’t sleep, go to your space for a walk gone."

Chou Chou nodded, "Of course, but you'd better be prepared, my space is different from Xiangxiang's."

Qingyan raised her eyebrows, what does this mean?
Then I felt a blur in front of my eyes, and I appeared in a dark place.

When I was in the house before, there was moonlight coming in from the window, and I could still see something vaguely, but now I really can't see my fingers.
