Chapter 6 Are you going to purchase goods?
"I don't want to." Xiang Yi raised his head slightly and refused without thinking.

Maybe she thought her tone was not very polite, so she added:
"I'm not hungry."

"Okay," Li Cheng straightened up and pointed to the large iron pot upside down on the stove:

"Please help me clean the pot and chop some firewood."

Xiang Yi frowned slightly and subconsciously wanted to refuse.

But then, Li Cheng said as if talking to himself:
"Forget it, I don't need you anymore.

Looking at you like this, it's obvious that you don't want to touch the spring water with your fingers. Don't damage this only iron pot again..."

"I can wash pots and chop wood."

Xiang Yi covered the sauce jar, stood up immediately, and stressed as if stating objective facts.

"Oh, in that case, please leave it to Miss Xiang, I'll go outside to find something to eat."

Li Cheng smiled, put the candle aside, picked up a bamboo basket, and walked straight out of the kitchen.

Xiang Yi stood there, looking at the other person's back with a slightly dazed expression, his eyes a little confused.

She felt as if she had fallen into the trap of the other party.

Seeing that the other party had already stepped out of the kitchen, Xiang Yi hesitated for a moment, but still couldn't hold back his curiosity and asked aloud:
"The iron pot stew you mentioned, is it delicious?"

Li Cheng paused when he heard this, and a hint of joking flashed through his narrow eyes.

He stood outside the door under the moonlight and said with a smile without looking back:

"Don't tell you."

And when he walked through the small courtyard and strode to Chaimen.

He found that the long sword inside the socket was being pulled by the Qi machine and was trembling slightly.

At the same time, with his extraordinary hearing, Li Cheng heard an angry whisper from the kitchen:

"Bad man."

……

……

Li Cheng did not choose to draw the Lady Sword.

With his skill, he easily climbed over the half-man-high fence and arrived outside the courtyard.

Following the path he came from, Li Cheng entered the deep and dense black forest.

Based on his intuition, he thought that there should be many mushrooms hidden in this dark forest.

It's not poisonous, it's edible.

Walking through the pine forest as if walking on flat ground, Li Cheng thought about finding the mushrooms as soon as possible and going back.

At the same time, he was also thinking secretly in his heart:

Although he decided to stew in an iron pot, he had not yet decided what to stew.

For crockpot stew, mushrooms will only be a side dish.

As for the main dishes, they are usually meats such as goose, wandering chicken, and river fish.

Li Cheng hesitated for a moment, then laughed to himself.

It would be nice to have mushrooms to eat this late at night.

What more bike.

And as he thought, although there were large areas of picking traces in the forest, there were still many pine mushrooms left.

From the outside, the color is yellowish, and the meat is thick, so it must be extremely tender.

Along the pine forest, Li Cheng picked most of the basket of pine mushrooms and prepared to go home.

Although these pine mushrooms are good, they are a bit hard on the eyes.

Fortunately, he is a master in the Tongxuan realm and has certain night vision capabilities.

If it were an ordinary person coming here, his eyes would be completely black.

in a physical sense.

The cold wind blew through, making the pine forest rustle.

Li Cheng couldn't help but slow down his pace, his ears quietly pricked up, and he carefully distinguished the sound coming from him.

Then he was sure that he heard the sound of running water.

Under the cover of night, he carried the bamboo basket and galloped away following the sound.

In less than a quarter of an hour.

Stopping outside the edge of the pine forest and looking at the surging river in front of him, Li Cheng couldn't help but smile.

After scanning around, he found several old bamboo cages on the beach not far away.

After some simple fiddling, it was barely usable.

However, although fishing tools are available, there is still one crucial thing missing -

bait.

After all, fish, unlike people, don’t like to eat mushrooms.

Thinking of this, Li Cheng calmly took out a stone the size of an egg from his arms.

Under the moonlight, the blue-gray stone wrapped with light golden lines looks ordinary.

It's a bit like the street-stall cultural toys that were exported to domestic sales in the previous life.

Li Cheng cautiously stuffed the stone into the bamboo cage, made sure it was correct again and again, and then threw the bamboo cage into the water.

Wait a moment.

He used his skill and strength to carefully drag the bamboo cage back to the shore.

As expected, there were two or three carps trapped in the cage at the moment, and they were flapping their tails and making crackling sounds.

Seeing this, Li Cheng subconsciously gathered energy in his palms and raised his hands to block his eyes to avoid being splashed with water.

But almost at the same moment, if he felt something, he suddenly raised his eyes and looked across the river.

On the other side, it was still a dark forest.

Li Cheng took a step forward, and bursts of energy centered on himself, crossing the river like waves.

After maintaining this for a few breaths, he silently took back his true energy.

Judging from the results of the exploration, there was nothing on the other side of the river.

Did I have an illusion?
Li Cheng's eyes were deep and his eyebrows were slightly furrowed.

But he clearly felt before that there was a faint fluctuation of Qi on the other side...

……

……

The courtyard is particularly quiet on autumn nights.

Only a few autumn insects can be heard occasionally.

Xiang Yi sat alone on the bench under the eaves, wearing an apricot-white cloak and looking at Chaimen blankly.

It seems that I am reminiscing about the past that I can no longer return to.

Drops of water dripped from the tips of her inky hair and wetted the snow-white toes in front of her.

Xiang Yi subconsciously shrank the arch of his foot, like a ball of creamy ice cream that couldn't melt.

Just as she was hesitating whether to wipe her hair again, she suddenly heard a snapping sound.

This is the knock on the door.

It's particularly jarring on a quiet night.

Xiang Yi Qiushui's eyes immediately flashed with a strange color.

She was a little confused as to why the person outside the door didn't climb over the wall and come back, but instead made noise.

But she didn't hesitate, she waved her hand gently, and the lady's sword moved out of the socket and flew straight back to her.

next moment,
Chai Men was knocked open by Li Cheng's body, and the two immediately looked at each other from the air.

Xiang Yi saw that the other party's hands were full of large and small packages, his red lips were slightly opened, and his eyes showed surprise.

As if asking silently:

Are you going to purchase goods?
But she soon discovered that the focus of the other party's gaze should not be between her eyebrows.

Following Li Cheng's gaze, Xiang Yi lowered his eyes silently.

After looking at her white and tender feet like peeling eggs, she looked at Li Cheng with vigilance:

"What are you looking at?"

"Oh, it's nothing," Li Cheng replied casually while carrying the things forward:
"I saw there was water stains on the front of your stool, so I was just a little curious."

What are you curious about?
Xiang Yi asked subconsciously, but didn't say anything.

Putting on the clogs she had put aside, she stood up and walked towards Li Cheng.

In the Jin Dynasty, girls’ feet were quite private parts.

But thinking that her body has been seen by the other party, she doesn't need to cover up anything.

Standing in front of Li Cheng who had returned home with a full load, Xiang Yi glanced at the pile of things on the ground and asked in disbelief:

"Where do these come from?"

"Let me take a look," Li Cheng lowered his head and glanced around, then said in detail:

"Mushrooms are picked from the forest, and carp are caught from the river.

As for these green onions, ginger, fruits and vegetables, oil and salt cakes, etc., I exchanged the fish for the fellow villagers..."

Speaking of this, Li Cheng sounded a little embarrassed:
“The folks here are so enthusiastic.

I said that a small amount is enough, but they have to force it on me, or don’t want it. "

Xiang Yi:……

She suddenly felt that something was not right in what the other party said.

 I’m so cute, I’d like to collect it and read it, thank you guys.
