Chapter 501 Great Changes in Yan Country
After dawn, Wan'er walked into Ye Tian's room.
She saw that Ye Tian's thin, dry and yellow skin had improved a lot yesterday, and she seemed to be in good spirits. After worrying about the whole night, she finally felt relieved and said with a smile, "Young Master Chen, did you sleep well last night?" ?”
"Very good, I feel that my body has almost recovered after one night." Ye Tian stretched, pretending that he had just sat down not long ago and was still in a state of just waking up.
"If you are a little tired, then continue to rest, and I will bring you food later." Wan'er saw that Ye Tian's face was still a little tired, knowing that Ye Tian must have suffered a lot from fighting with others yesterday and needed sleep And it should be.
"Wan'er, here are some scattered gold, you can use it to buy some food, make some clothes and jewelry, and thank you and A Niu for taking care of me in the past few days." Ye Tian said, holding a piece of gold in his hand. The scattered gold wrapped in rags was handed to Wan'er.
The gold was deliberately broken off from the gold nugget after he woke up, and he wrapped it in an old rag at random. From this, it seemed that the gold was not taken out so casually to Ye Tian, so graceful. It's not easy to refuse directly.
"Master Chen, are you leaving?" Wan'er did not pick up the broken gold, but stared at Ye Tian with clear eyes.
"How could it be, how far can I go with my current appearance? Even if I want to leave, I have to wait for my injuries to recover, otherwise what should I do if I encounter some powerful villains." Ye Tian stood up and walked In front of Wan'er, he directly put the broken gold in her hand.
"Go and buy some daily necessities, you are a girl, you will look better with a few beautiful clothes." Ye Tian said softly.
Wan'er didn't refuse, she nodded while holding the gold, and ran out with blushing cheeks.
On this day, Wan'er went to the market town with Ah Niu. When they came back at noon, they bought a lot of things. Everyone in the village said that the two brothers and sisters finally knew how to live. To whom?
The old man in the village praised that Ah Niu's elm wood brain is enlightened, and he knows how to love his younger sister. The new clothes for her cost at least a few taels of silver. money.
For the compliments from the villagers, Ah Niu just smiled politely when he saw them.
Although he still feels sorry for the money spent today, seeing Wan'er with a smile on his face, A Niu feels it's worth it. The old man in the village is right, Wan'er is so beautiful, she should wear beautiful clothes.
It was a coincidence to go to the market this time. An old cow from a tenant in the market town was exhausted when plowing the land. It was a rare encounter with stewed beef. Wan'er encouraged A Niu to buy a few catties, and even bought a Hushang good sorghum wine.
When he got home, Ye Tian was still sitting quietly in his room.
The power of the stars during the day is not comparable to that at night, but after a morning, Ye Tian's body can also recover a little. Now, he didn't dare to waste any time. Only by recovering his complete cultivation could he have the confidence to go to the Nangong family to seek revenge.
The lunch meal was very rich, besides the beef, A Niu also bought some good side dishes. Because Wan'er bought a few new clothes, she was happily beside Ye Tian, and asked him if she was pretty in this one. After Ye Tian praised, the little girl blushed and talked about the other clothes she bought. different.
Girls love beauty, this simple and pure thought made Ye Tian think of life on earth for a moment, how beautiful life was at that time.
He thought of Qingya, his parents, his time at school with Qingya, he thought of peeking at Qingya with a mirror, causing her to go to the teacher to complain, and then the teacher came to his house for a drink, and a few friends followed him to eat at home coming.
That kind of carefree time can never go back, never again!
He once watched these people grow old, sick and die, and see through the end of life, but he also looks forward to this kind of beauty, but time will not repeat itself, the past beauty can only be left in the memory, deeply buried.
Because Ye Tian thought of many people, he was interested in drinking it for a while. Although the wine bought by A Niu was bitter and spicy, it was such a stimulus, which made Ye Tian think of those people in the past, who lived in the same simple village and lived a comfortable life. And free life.
Ah Niu grew up so big, in fact, he didn't drink wine a few times, and every time he drank, Ah Niu had never seen Ye Tian like this, knocking bowl after bowl together, and drank a large bowl of wine in one gulp.
A Niu, who was too strong to drink, passed out after three bowls of wine.
Wan'er smiled and looked at him as strong as a cow, but in fact she still couldn't drink three sips of wine, so she was curious and saw that Ye Tian was still fine after drinking two bowls, so she poured half a bowl for herself, and took it up to drink with him. Ye Tian touched his wine bowl.
Ye Tian looked at her, suppressed the sadness and longing in his heart, squeezed out a smile and drank it down.
Seeing that Ye Tian was fine after drinking it, Wan'er picked up the wine bowl and drank it in a big gulp. It was spicy, bitter, and had a little strange smell, which made her spit out all of a sudden, and her face turned red instantly like Ripe apples can almost wring out water.
It didn't take long for Wan'er to feel dizzy looking at things, and then fell asleep lying on the table after holding on for a while.
Ye Tian stood up, all the power of alcohol in his body was melted away, swept away his previous thoughts, sent A Niu and Wan'er back to their room, found a quiet place and continued to meditate and practice, in order to get rid of them as quickly as possible. The side effects of the "Hidden Blood Curse" are removed and the previous state is restored.
When it was dark, A Niu and Wan'er woke up groggy.
A Niu, who had just woken up, got out of bed and went to the hut not far away, but Wan'er just got up and immediately shouted: "No, the beef and food are going to be spoiled!"
Now it’s just past the dog days, the weather is not so cool, and the beef will be spoiled easily when placed on the table. Ye Tian naturally considered this problem, and he had already dealt with the beef and meals. An ice freezing technique made them Always kept at low temperature.
When Wan'er came to the dining table, she found that the beef and food were cold and fresh, so she couldn't help being suspicious, and looked at Ye Tian's position. She didn't go to Ye Tian to ask so many questions, because she knew that she might not get an answer if she asked, so she took the beef and food to heat up for dinner.
A Niu patronized Ye Tian to drink at noon, and didn't eat a few mouthfuls at all.
At this time, A Niu, who had already been hungry for two meals, could really eat like a cow. He ate most of the several catties of beef on the table by himself. Ye Tian and Wan'er just smiled, and finally the dishes on the table All were eaten by Ah Niu.
A Niu wiped his mouth with unrestrained interest, saw half a jug of wine on the table, hesitantly poured half a bowl for himself, and sipped it, his face was full of satisfaction and happiness.
Wan'er changed into the newly bought clothes at night, Ye Tian praised her when she saw it, and went back to practice after eating.
Day after day passed like this, Wan'er got used to Ye Tian's existence, she got used to delivering meals, doing laundry, boiling bath water for him, and of course A Niu's share. She even thought that it would be good to live like this, how nice it would be to have someone she likes and a lover to live a peaceful life together!
But not long after, A Niu came back from the market town and brought a very bad news. The northern land of Yan State is fighting. It is said that Cangyue’s army in the northern land has been suppressed. Yan State has suffered a defeat. I'm afraid that it won't be long before the entire Yan Kingdom may perish.
Moreover, all towns are recruiting soldiers, and even some poor families are forcibly recruited. Under such circumstances, Ah Niu began to worry about being drafted, because he was afraid that after he left, Wan'er would be bullied by others.
In this way, the news about the recruitment spread for a few days, and not long after, Ah Niu discovered that the tenants and rich peasants in the market town had begun to be forced to recruit soldiers by the officialdom. It takes five years for a cow to save money.
People in the market town became uneasy, because it was rumored that there was a tenant family with four young and strong sons, and they went to the nearby mountains to hunt game every year. All of them were good players in the mountains and forests, so the government let them out. Eighty taels of silver, otherwise, all their sons will be sent to serve as soldiers.
As soon as the news came out, people in the entire market town dared not go out casually, for fear that someone from the government would say that they were young and strong and would drag them into the army.
That night, the tenant was pissed to death, and his four sons made a fuss in the government. In the end, because the government personnel were not strong enough to capture the four of them alive, they shot them to death with random arrows, and burned down all the tenant's houses. , spread rumors that there was flooding in the tenant's house, and the fire burned everyone to death.
The next day, some young people in the market town secretly left the market town with their family members, because the recruitment of soldiers in the market town has mandatory regulations, and those who are over 40 years old are not recruited, and those who are less than 10 years old are not recruited. In the market town, I went to the south to beg for a living.
After inquiring about the news, A Niu sat around the gate of the village for a long time sullenly, and finally made up his mind to go home and found Wan'er who was in a daze.
"Brother A Niu, what's on your mind?" Wan'er looked at the silent A Niu and said.
"Wan'er, let's leave the village. The market town has started to recruit soldiers. I'm afraid that I will be forced to serve as a soldier. I can't rest assured that you are alone in the village." A Niu said.
"If Mr. Chen is still here, he will definitely not let me be wronged." Wan'er squinted her crescent-shaped eyes, smiling happily.
"But…"
Ah Niu was in a hurry, before he continued, Ye Tian had already walked in from the outside, and he had heard more or less news from the past few days, and after a period of practice, his golden core had been damaged. In recovery, all the main golden cores have been repaired, and the cultivation base can be restored immediately.
"Wan'er, Ah Niu is right. Now the situation is getting more and more complicated. Maybe you can live a better life if you leave the village earlier and go to the south." Ye Tian walked up to Ah Niu, patted him on the shoulder, and let him rest assured.
"Mr. Chen, what about you? Are you going with us?" Wan'er stood up nervously, staring at Ye Tian motionlessly.
"I haven't planned to leave yet, and the place I'm going to is not suitable for you, you should take your things and leave here early." After Ye Tian finished speaking, he turned and walked out of the room.
Wan'er looked at him, sad tears streaming down her aggrieved face.
Ah Niu looked at Wan'er, and it was neither good to leave nor not to leave. At this moment, a voice yelled outside: "Is Ah Niu here? Ah Niu, come out quickly. Elders who are over forty must join the army, otherwise they will be charged with treason, and they will be arrested for labor, and if there are rebels, they will be killed on the spot!"
