The villagers in the fields have already started working, as diligently as little bees picking flowers in summer.
Su Fan glanced at Han Xiaoyue, who seemed to be frightened, and couldn't help but turn his attention to the old man who came.
The old man was dressed casually, and although the style of clothing was very different from that of the villagers in Longshi Village, the materials were roughly the same.
Han Xiaoyue timidly said to the old man: "I wanted him to eat, but I didn't expect..."
The old man's originally angry face was swept away by this sentence, and he said in a deep voice: "Forget it, let's go in and talk."
The old man didn't even look at Su Fan, as if Su Fan didn't exist, or he was afraid that others would see him talking to Su Fan...
After entering the hut, the old man consciously sat on the only chair, looked at the two of them calmly, and ordered: "Close the door."
Han Xiaoyue said hurriedly: "If we close the door at this time, others will become more suspicious."
Su Fan couldn't help but laugh in his heart. What he said was indeed correct. Let's see what the old man should do.
The old man was not angry but smiled and said: "Am I doing something bad?"
Han Xiaoyue shut her mouth and consciously closed the door tightly.
Su Fan was startled. He found that the old man had turned his attention to himself for the first time, finally avoiding the embarrassment of being the only two people talking to each other and treating him as a transparent person.
Su Fan smiled knowingly. It is necessary to maintain respect for his savior.
The old man smiled sarcastically and said calmly: "You're awake."
Su Fan was stunned, isn't this nonsense? If you weren't awake, who was standing outside the door watching you for a long time?
Although he thought so, Su Fan could naturally keep his emotions in check.
Su Fan nodded hurriedly, like a little scholar who was inexperienced in the world, and said: "Wake up."
The old man seemed to think that was a bit ridiculous, so he covered it up and said, "Yes, what's your name?"
Su Fan replied: "Su Fan."
The old man seemed to be listening but not listening, and continued to ask casually: "Where are you from?"
"Dragonstone Village."
"Longshi Village? Oh." The old man repeated Su Fan's words and found that this name had never been in his mind.
Han Xiaoyue suddenly said: "Village Chief, you have never been out here, so you must have never heard of this name."
The old man suddenly glared at Han Xiaoyue, his face suddenly turned red, and said, "I've never heard of it, but why are you here?"
Su Fan secretly sighed in his heart, the people here are indeed simple, and the head of a village would actually blush at the words of a little girl.
After hearing the old man's question, Su Fan naturally would not tell what happened to him in Tianyuan Sect. If he did, the old man might not believe it.
Su Fan said without hesitation: "This junior was chased by evil people. He fled all the way and fell into a cliff, so he came here."
Su Fan thought about the villain books he had read when he was a child. The protagonists often had such experiences, falling off a cliff and getting adventures. It would be good to use it as a cover-up at this moment.
Although I don’t want to deceive my benefactor, it is better to make up some lies in order to make people believe me.
The old man pondered for a moment and continued: "If you hadn't fallen into Peach Blossom Creek and been favored by the holy spring, you might have died long ago."
"Holy spring?" Su Fan asked doubtfully.
The old man looked a little angry and said, "Isn't that why you came here?"
Su Fan was confused by this question and hurriedly said: "For the holy spring? Why."
The old man sneered and said: "The holy spring is related to the lives of forty-three households in Taohua Creek. I will protect it even if I die."
When the old man said this, Su Fan observed that Han Xiaoyue also had a serious, even pious face.
Su Fan frowned and said, "If senior doesn't believe in junior, why would he want to save people?"
The old man was silent. He looked at Su Fan silently, as if he was thinking about this problem.
Han Xiaoyue shouted: "The rules of Peach Blossom Creek are that you would rather save three thousand people by mistake than not save one person."
The old man flashed an approving gaze and looked at Su Fan, as if he was showing off this noble quality.
Su Fan hesitated to speak, smiled calmly and said nothing. The old man said in a deep voice: "You stay here for now. You are not allowed to leave without my permission."
Su Fan said with a smile: "Senior, do you think this kid can stop me?"
The old man suddenly laughed and glanced at the thin Han Xiaoyue. Han Xiaoyue was not unhappy because of Su Fan's contempt, but nodded in approval.
The old man said casually: "With all the meridians in your body, even if you are an immortal, you will become a mortal, or even worse."
When Su Fan heard this, he was suddenly startled. Suddenly, he found that there was no response from his dantian, and Zhou Tian's spiritual energy could not be sensed.
With all his cultivation lost, Su Fan could no longer calm down and his expression changed drastically, but he was not a mortal after all, and the abnormal expression was swept away.
He held his fists with a smile and said, "Thank you, senior, for saving your life."
The old man suppressed his smile and walked out of the house, leaving behind a sentence that surprised Su Fan.
"Although Xiaoyue has no ability to stop you, only she can get out of Peach Blossom Creek."
Seeing that the village chief had gone away, Han Xiaoyue looked at Su Fan proudly and said, "If you want to leave, I will send you away, but I'm afraid I won't be able to let you go."
Su Fan smiled bitterly and said, "You and I have just met, so why are we reluctant to part with you?"
Han Xiaoyue blinked and said, "Because you can't bear to part with it?"
Su Fan had no choice but to give up and continue arguing with the child and walked into the yard alone.
Han Xiaoyue did not forget to say hello: "You'd better not leave too far, otherwise I will be sad if I can't find you."
Su Fan said helplessly: "I'm just in the yard...looking at the peach blossoms."
…
The sun sets in the west, and the sunset glow beats the fire.
Su Fan didn’t understand why it was already autumn and the leaves had already fallen.
Flying, but with the gorgeous sunset that only exists in summer, and...peach blossoms.
The peach blossoms are very dense and the leaves are colorful. When a gust of wind blows, it's like a rain of flowers.
Su Fan sat down leaning against the peach tree, recalling the previous scene and lamenting the impermanence of the world.
"Do you have a lot on your mind?" Han Xiaoyue walked up to Su Fan at some point and asked in a low voice.
Su Fan smiled slightly, nodded, and said nothing.
Han Xiaoyue then smiled and said: "If you have any worries, just keep it in your heart and don't say it out loud... Come and have a drink."
Su Fan paused because he smelled a familiar smell. Su Fan subconsciously stretched his hands to his waist, and suddenly found that the wine bottle on his waist had already disappeared.
Han Xiaoyue asked curiously: "Do you want this?" As he spoke, he took out a wine bottle from his sleeve.
Su Fan happily took the wine bottle, as if he had received some treasure.
Then, Su Fan suddenly found Han Xiaoyue who was standing aside holding a wine set, and realized that he had lost his composure.
Just now, he was laughing at the village chief's inexperience, but now he is doing the same.
So Su Fan hurriedly asked: "What kind of wine is this? It smells so good."
Han Xiaoyue came back to her senses and said, "Peach Blossom Wine, a unique wine from Peach Blossom Creek."
"Peach blossom wine, peach blossom wine..." Su Fan muttered these three words silently.
