Ye Xiong put the hoe aside, took the food and ate it.
"This morning, I took the opportunity to inquire about my condition and went door to door in the village. This village has been passed down for hundreds of years. No one has ever left this village. We may have to stay here." Murong
Ruyin said.
Ye Xiong glanced at her and found that her attitude was different from yesterday.
"Do you want to stay here?" Ye Xiong asked.
"If there is really no other way, we can only stay." Murong Ruyin replied.
She ran around with Ye Xiong all day yesterday, trying her best to get out of here. Today, her attitude suddenly changed, and Ye Xiong became suspicious.
"Did anyone tell you something?" Ye Xiong asked.
"No one said anything to me, this is just my opinion." Murong Ruyin replied.
"Let's see. If there is really no way to leave, then we can only stay."
Ye Xiong finished his meal, put the bowls and chopsticks into the basket, and left.
He must seize the time and explore the village again to see if he can find a breakthrough.
After spending a whole day, Ye Xiong explored the village again, and this time he was completely heartbroken.
As the village chief Zhishan said, this small mountain village is completely its own biological chain. Everything in it is produced by itself, and no items are purchased from outside at all.
When Ye Xiong returned to the village at night, he found that someone was building a new wooden house in the village.
When I stepped forward and asked, I found out that it was a new house built for me.
Back in the wooden house where they stayed temporarily, Murong Ruyin had returned and was learning to weave.
"I just went to learn how to make clothes from Aunt Wang. Can you see if I did well?"
Murong Ruyin asked, holding the half-made clothes in her hand.
"Not bad." Ye Xiong replied.
"The head of Zhishan Village said that he would hold a welcome party for us. Every time there is an outsider in this village, a welcome party will be held. The last time it was held was five years ago, so now everyone in the village is very happy.
." Murong Ruyin continued.
"Do as the Romans do, and do whatever they like," Ye Xiong replied.
Murong Ruyin thought he didn't like it, but she didn't expect him to agree so quickly, which was a bit surprising.
"Ruyin, are you willing to stay here?" Ye Xiong suddenly asked.
Murong Ruyin didn't expect that he would ask these questions, and she didn't know how to answer.
In fact, from the bottom of her heart, she is willing to stay here, because here, Ye Xiong belongs to her alone.
After leaving, Ye Xiong no longer belongs to her, he belongs to Yang Xinyi.
In Ye Xiong's heart, she could never replace Yang Xinyi.
"Wherever I go, I will follow." Murong Ruyin replied.
It seems like a question but not an answer, but it is already the answer.
What this means is that Ye Xiong will always be the first in her heart, and she will always follow him.
At night, it was still the same as last night, Ye Xiong slept on the floor and Murong Ruyin slept on the bed.
The next day, the work was the same as yesterday. Ye Xiong went to work in the fields in the morning and went to check for news in the afternoon.
Five days later, the new house was built, and the two moved in and started their lives together.
Although the two of them didn't say anything, to outsiders, they looked like a young couple.
On the night when the house was built, the village held a welcoming party for the two of them.
Slaughtering pigs and chickens, in the light of the fire, started a joyful night, which was very enjoyable.
All the people in the village came out and danced around the fire.
Ye Xiong counted and found that there were fifty-one people in the room, including the two of him, the number was fifty-three.
The ratio of men to women is even, people get along harmoniously with each other, and there are no disputes. It's really like a paradise.
Ye Xiong discovered that the people here were very kind, without greed, evil, or hatred, a typical thinker's utopian world.
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Ye Xiong would never believe that the folk customs here could be so simple.
Seeing Murong Ruyin dancing selflessly among a group of women, Ye Xiong frowned deeply.
In this situation, Murong Ruyin has completely integrated into this small village. Perhaps it is because the folk customs of this village are exactly the same as the world she longs for, which makes her feel almost no discomfort and integrate into this world in a very short time.
It is very dangerous when a person's will is unknowingly tempered.
That means she will never look for a way out again.
At the welcome party, Murong Ruyin drank some rice wine and her face turned red.
Sister-in-law Wang kept saying something in her ear. While she was listening, she looked at Ye Xiong unintentionally. With her charming and shy look, even if Ye Xiong didn't hear it, she knew what the two of them were talking about.
After the welcome party ended, Murong Ruyin felt a little dizzy, so Ye Xiong sent her back.
Before returning to the room, Ye Xiong put Murong Ruyin on the bed and raised the pillow to make her sleep more comfortable.
When he was about to return to the ground to sleep, his hand was suddenly grabbed.
Ye Xiong turned around and saw that Murong Ruyin's face was flushed, her face was like a peach blossom, and there was deep affection in her blurred eyes.
"Axiong..."
"You're drunk, have a good sleep and you'll be fine tomorrow." Ye Xiong interrupted her and covered her with the quilt.
Murong Ruyin shook her head repeatedly and suddenly asked: "Do you love me?"
Ye Xiong knew that Sister-in-law Wang must have said something to her. Otherwise, Murong Ruyin would not have been so bold with her reserved character.
He thought for a moment and nodded: "Love."
Murong Ruyin sat up, clasping his neck with her hands, closing her eyes, as if waiting for something.
Looking at the pretty face so close, Ye Xiong felt a surge of tenderness in his heart.
He couldn't help but leaned forward gently, preparing to kiss her.
Seeing that their lips were about to touch each other, Ye Xiong's mind suddenly flashed into the image of Yang Xinyi and the baby's cry.
He woke up almost instantly and stopped dead in his tracks.
Murong Ruyin waited for a long time, but the other party didn't respond, so she opened her eyes.
"Do you remember what you once said to me?" Ye Xiong looked at her drunken face and continued: "I also hope that you will devote yourself to me when you are sober, and I don't want you to regret it when you are sober.
"
Murong Ruyin remembered what she had said before and nodded immediately.
Ye Xiong kissed her face, comforted her, and finally put her to sleep.
After she fell asleep, Ye Xiong lit an oil lamp, sat at the table, and began to think about how to leave this small village.
If you want to know how to leave, you must first understand what kind of place this is.
After observing for a period of time, Ye Xiong was 100% sure that this small village was definitely an illusion.
It's just that this illusion is too real, and the things and emotions make people feel exactly like the real world, so they believe that this is reality.
Just like Murong Ruyin, she has completely believed that this is a real world and has sunk into it.
Ye Xiong himself must not sink, otherwise he will be trapped in this illusion for a lifetime until he grows old and dies.
