Beautiful mountains and clear waters, dark willows and bright flowers.

The sunshine in spring falls on the rows of mulberry trees outside Zhuji Zhuluo Village, and the mulberry leaves dancing in the wind fall to the ground, forming swaying and mottled light and shadow.

Li Yunze, wearing a Taoist robe, stood under a tree on the roadside, looking thoughtfully at the girls washing clothes not far away.

"Master."

The young man dressed as a Taoist boy next to him asked, "It's getting late. Do you want to stay in the village?"

Li Yunze withdrew his gaze and nodded, "Yes, you can go to the village and ask."

Li Yunze, who had been dormant for a long time, once again started traveling around the world.

The difference from the last time was that this time, there was no big fanfare with three thousand disciples on a patrol to avoid ghosts and gods, but only a newly acquired direct disciple.

Li Yunze, who was standing under the tree, looked calmly at the girls wearing gauze beside the stream not far away.

The stream was gurgling, the girls were laughing and playing in the water, and Wu Nong's soft words flowed into Li Yunze's ears like wind.

The scenery in Jiangnan was already so beautiful thousands of years ago.

The young apprentice hurried back and said, "Master, we have already made an agreement with a family. It only costs fifty yuan for two people to stay overnight."

"Um."

Li Yunze nodded without saying anything and walked towards the village.

The young apprentice on the side quickly picked up his bag and followed quickly.

The apprentice was not dissatisfied at all, but was very happy.

Being able to travel with Master is a good thing that many brothers would envy.

The arrival of wandering outsiders in the village is definitely a good thing to watch for many locals who only live within a hundred miles of the village.

When Li Yunze entered the village, a large group of men, women, old and children had already gathered in the village, scrambling to look around.

The scene and treatment were like fans from later generations watching the stars.

...True fans are not the kind you hire with money...

Li Yunze looked as usual and talked to the three elders in the village, saying that he was traveling around the world with his apprentice and passed by this place to stay overnight.

This is the countryside of the Yue Kingdom, and the people in front of us are the savages of the Yue Kingdom.

Zhou Li's method doesn't work very well here, but it's not a place where bandits are infested.

The savages have their own living habits and ways, which are generally pretty good.

After confirming that Master and Disciple Li Yunze were not criminals, someone took him into the courtyard of a family named Zheng in the village.

This family had a son standing in the yard looking at them, his eyes slightly wary.

Li Yunze looked at the Taoist boy, "Gongshu, take another fifty Chubei."

He took fifty chubei and handed it to the old man, the head of the house, "You're sorry for bothering me, but I'd like to ask the head of the house to find some meat and wine."

Fifty Chubei's purchasing power was not low. The old man looked happy and immediately called his son, "Hurry up and hunt some game. Then call your lady back to the kitchen. Running around all day long is not a good look."

The head of the family tidied up a room for Master and Disciple Li Yunze. Not to mention anything else, it was quite clean.

Li Yunze is truly flexible and flexible. He can live in a palace, sleep on a dragon bed, and can live peacefully in a place with nothing but cleanliness.

The young apprentice Gongshu busily took out the thin blanket and made a bed for his master and himself.

Li Yunze doesn't use other people's bedrolls when he's outside because there are too many small animals.

The sun is shining in the west, it's evening.

Li Yunze, who was sitting on the bed and meditating quietly, was disturbed by the noise outside.

"You haven't seen Dong Shi's appearance. It really made me laugh to death, hahaha~~~"

The clear laughter of a girl came, mixed with the owner's scolding: "If you don't do good things all day long, either fooling around or playing swordsmanship, I might as well marry you off early."

The girl seemed not to have heard anything and was just joking with her brother... Seeing Shi Yiguang frowning and covering his heart, Dong Shi also followed suit, but she was not as beautiful as Shi Yiguang, and she pretended to make people laugh...

"

"I think Dong Shi is pretty good." The owner of the angry voice was the girl's brother. "He has a thick waist and a big butt. He is good at giving birth..."

"Shut up!" the head of the house said angrily. "Danny, go help your mother in the kitchen. Chai, go and invite the guests to come out for dinner."

Two moments later, the sunset had already dropped to the edge of the horizon, and dinner was finally served here.

The eating place was in the main room. There was a pit dug in the ground and a fire was lit. It was supported by a tripod and a wooden stick, and a cauldron was suspended.

The head of the Zheng family bowed apologetically, "My guest has been waiting for a long time."

Normally, people in this era eat two meals a day, and this meal is eaten around three or four o'clock in the afternoon.

Li Yunze asked for some wine and meat before, so it was delayed until now.

"Thank you very much for your hospitality."

Li Yunze sat down with Gongshu generously, then looked around and nodded to the Zheng family.

Needless to say, the head of the Zheng family and his wife, Zheng Chai's finger joints are thick and there are calluses on the tiger's mouth, so he must be a hunter.

As for the daughter of the Zheng family, Dan... she is about fourteen or fifteen years old. She has picturesque features and fair skin, and her eyes are especially bright.

It's hard to imagine that there could be such a beautiful woman in such a mountainous place.

Zheng Dan suddenly flashed her beautiful eyes and looked at Li Yunze curiously.

"Let's eat."

As the head of the Zheng family picked up the bowl, today's dinner officially began.

Zheng Chai went to the mountains to hunt a deer and came back, processed it and threw it into the cauldron to cook directly.

I also caught a fat fish, a really fat fish, weighing five or six pounds.

It's just that the fish was simply processed, scaled and dirty, and then placed directly in the pottery basin. This is the rhythm of eating raw fish.

Other than that, there are pickles and corn rice.

If it weren't for Li Yunze's money, there would definitely not be such a rich life on weekdays.

By the way, there is also a jar of wine.

Seeing Li Yunze pick up the wine jar and pour the turbid wine into the pottery bowl in front of him, the father and son of the Zheng family swallowed in unison.

Although it is just turbid wine, you still need to spend money to buy it in the past.

Li Yunze smiled slightly and poured a bowl of wine for the father and son.

Before the wine jar was taken back, he saw the young girl Zheng Dan holding the pottery bowl in front of her with a smile on her face.

Li Yunze smiled lightly and poured her a bowl of wine.

The alcohol content of this kind of turbid wine is very low, even lower than that of beer in the future.

Although it looks turbid, it is a real grain wine. It is not like the breweries of later generations that artificially add natural liquids...

The Zheng family drank and laughed happily. After a short while, they let go of their restraints and started chatting with each other.

As for saying 'no words when eating, no words when sleeping', that's all hypocrisy.

These so-called rules are used to restrict people, but there are still people who follow them and think it's great.

While chatting, the previous topic naturally continued.

After drinking, the pretty and tipsy Zheng Dan asked her eldest brother, "Didn't you like Shi Yiguang before? Why did you fall in love with Dong Shi again?"

Zheng Chai shook his head and said nothing, but just picked up the wine bowl.

"snort."

The head of the Zheng family said with a dark face, "Then Shi Yiguang is sick! Or he has a heart problem! He walks as if he will fall down at any time. What kind of work can he do if he marries into the family? On the contrary, he has to serve her and spend money. How much money can be spent on a family?

?Let alone having a son, he is a loser who can’t even do housework."

"That Dong Shi, on the other hand, is not only fertile, but also diligent and quick at work. This is what is good."

Seeing the Zheng family's father and son looking at each other and nodding, Li Yunze felt a touch of sadness in his heart.

Isn’t this the same as in later generations?

Marriage has become an economic issue, relying on the God of Wealth to pull the strings.

When can people truly be carefree and do what they want to do?

Instead of just calculating and calculating all day long, calculating yourself and others?

Li Yunze sighed, but it attracted Zheng Dan's attention.

She looked over and said, "Sir, are you lamenting Shi Yiguang's miserable life?"

He has suffered from heart disease since he was a child, and the young people in the village dare not approach him for fear of dragging down his family. In Zheng Dan's opinion, this is a miserable life.

Li Yunze smiled and responded, "What do you think, little lady?"

"Sir, just call me Dan Niang." Zheng Dan said seriously, "Mr. Guan should be regarded as a powerful person. It would be better for him to take Shi Yiguang away than for her to be taken away and sold by others in the future."
