Chapter 63 Salt

To say that Jingtan Village is just to make the name sound better, if it is named after this pool, it is better to use dead characters.

Qin Hongyi looked at Shen Lan's serious look, and found that women were more attractive when they were focused, so he couldn't help but feel a little absent-minded.

"Let's go." Shen Lan suddenly stood up and said.

Qin Hongyi was a little embarrassed when he came back to his senses: "Okay."

Back to where they lived, Shen Lan sat on the chair all the time. The courtyard was still some distance away from Zhuangzi, and it was a little lower on the mountainside. It wasn't very barren when someone took care of it before. Now that they came, the old man who took care of the house also went down.

Compared with other hospitals, the conditions here are still much worse. When I came here, I found that many living expenses could not keep up. If it wasn't for Shen Lan who had to bring so many things when he died, there would probably be a problem when he came here.

Now her job is to take stock of things, she needs to know what she has in order to decide what to do next, isn't she too careful?Or why did Shen Lan always think that she was born to do logistics.

Food is a very serious problem. Half of the people in Jingtan Village depend on hunting for a living, and some of the farmers who planted it did not have a good harvest. In the past, it was too far away from Tongcheng to pay the rent and send some furs. Now Qin Hongyi and the others naturally had to change a bit when they came.

But now Shen Lan looked at the stone head in front of her and had a lot of questions in her mind. She didn't know the geographical location here at all, so many Dongdi couldn't be defined.

It was getting dark early in the mountains, and it started to get dark almost as soon as the sun passed, but they lived in Xiangyang, so they could watch the sunset and the smoke from the cooking on the Zhuangzi not far away.The quiet life made Shen Lan more satisfied than ever before.

"You said, how good would it be if we continued like this?" Shen Lan smiled and looked at the mist rising in the distance.

Qin Hongyi looked at Shen Lan's satisfied eyes and his expression changed slightly: "Yes."

The dinner was very simple. When they came, Zhuangtou sent some bacon, some rabbits, and of course some chickens, with cages. Shen Lan didn't know how precious these things were. She knew at that time Chickens are raised on a large scale, and there are thousands of chickens in one room, so I don't think it is a big problem to send a few chickens.

However, Shen Lan's state was somewhat contradictory. After eating, Shen Lan and Qin Hongyi sat here in the room.It's a bit cold on the mountain, and Shen Lan thinks it's somewhat unsafe in the wild mountains, it would be bad if there are wild animals out there.

Su Xian and her mother lived in the same room, and A Mu lived in the same room. There is no bed here, and the bed is not as big as other courtyards, so Shen Lan can only squeeze together with Qin Hongyi.

"Why do you keep looking at this stone?" Qin Hongyi picked up the stone in front of Shen Lan.

There is no light here at night. Country people think that night is for sleeping, and spending money on lamp oil or candles is a waste, so they will never use them until they are useful.

Shen Lan and the others also use oil lamps, which are a bit cheaper than candles. The oil lamps are double-layered, with water placed underneath. Shen Lan used to know that this is a very energy-saving design, because water can cool down the temperature and reduce the volatilization of lamp oil, but When I saw it, I was still a little surprised. Wisdom has never been related to technology.

"Do you think the legend Zhuangtou said is true?" Shen Lan touched her forehead.

"Do you also believe in such legends?" Qin Hongyi carefully observed the stone in his hand, and soon he also found something different, the tiny crystals would reflect light under the light, but he didn't know this, he just felt weird, My heart dropped a bit.

"I feel that's true." Shen Lan looked at Qin Hongyi.

"Why?" Qin Hongyi's expression was already a little dignified, because this stone is indeed weird.

Shen Lan took the stone from his hand, then stood up and clasped Qin Hongyi's neck. Qin Hongyi's sudden enthusiasm for her was a little strange, he wouldn't move on his own like last time, she wasn't ready yet.

Shen Lan played with Qin Hongyi's lips with her fingers: "What's the smell?"

"Salty." Qin Hongyi frowned, Shen Lan washed his hands every time after eating, when did such salty things get on his hands.

"It's salt." Shen Lan sighed slightly.

Qin Hongyi was stunned, Shen Lan suddenly asked why salt was so mysterious, and he also knew that salty things are naturally salt, there are different kinds of sour, sweet, bitter and spicy, but the only salty thing is salt.

"Why are you playing with this?" Qin Hongyi felt that Shen Lan was inexplicable.

Shen Lan looked at Qin Hongyi, maybe people at this time didn't know much about such things: "This stone is glued with salt."

Qin Hongyi looked carefully at the light again. There were indeed reflective crystals on it. He tried to lick his hand and it was indeed salty. He also frowned. Why is this stone salty?

"This is the stone I brought back from Jingtan. It's probably because of the salt that no grass can grow in that place." Shen Lan guessed that if the water concentration is too high, there will be no living things, and the surrounding sand with too much salt will naturally not grow. There will be plants growing.

Shen Lan would definitely think about where the salt came from, but Qin Hongyi would definitely think about the existence of some strange force. After all, why did such a place produce salt water out of thin air?

"So you think that legend is true? Are there really ghosts here?" Qin Hongyi's expression became ugly.

Shen Lan shook her head: "Don't blame the gods and ghosts for things that can't be explained or can't be done. It's so embarrassing for the gods and ghosts." She teased a bit.

But Qin Hongyi couldn't bear this kind of ridicule, it was disrespectful to gods and ghosts: "Don't say that in the future."

Shen Lan rolled his eyes at him, and he really couldn't be serious or joking with him. If you were serious, he would think it was a ghost, but if you joked, he would say that he was disrespectful to the ghost: "Could it be that you can't have other ideas."

"What?" Qin Hongyi really didn't have any other ideas, cognition determines the way of thinking, anything he has is incomparable to Shen Lan.

"You don't think about how the salt came from, why it appeared here, and whether it has anything to do with the legendary people." Shen Lan listed a series of questions.

Qin Hongyi didn't know what to think about at all: "What do you think it has to do with it?"

Look, it's not that Shen Lan disdains to communicate with him, but is unable to communicate at all: "Okay, I didn't say anything, go to sleep."

Qin Hongyi was extremely puzzled by Shen Lan's move, but he didn't know how to ask, so he leaned on the bedside to read. The books he brought were not many, and they were all from the past. He had read them several times. Shen Lan is very curious about this. She never likes to read books a second time, except for the ones she really likes. She doesn't even think that the amount of books at this time can be compared with the amount of books she had at that time. Qin Hongyi wants to read new books. Come on, no.
