Chapter 309 Thatched Cottage
Yu Hongye added: "The total area of the Jingdu Country is not large, so it is natural that special measures must be taken to accommodate tens of thousands of residents and tourists. Now that the conditions here have improved, it is also a prerequisite for their living environment to improve."
Bai Lingshan was secretly amazed when she heard this. Really, if possible, she would like to ask if she can live here, but the residents of Jingdu Country are all people who are scheduled to live here. So she can only live in the Clock Tower.
At this time, the two were walking towards that direction.
After pushing open the wooden fence door, their eyes stopped on the thatched house.
The roof is covered with thatch, the door is blocked with coarse cloth, and the windows are supported by wooden sticks.
These...seemed like what she had seen on TV.
Just as Bai Lingshan was about to sigh, she heard Yu Hongye say:
"This is the thatched cottage he has lived in for hundreds of years. However, replacing it with a house made of other materials would make it look out of place."
Bai Lingshan chuckled when she heard that and turned her gaze to the only stone table and chairs in the yard.
"It's even simpler than your house..." Bai Lingshan expressed her sincere admiration.
She remembered the clean layout of his stone palace where there were no lights at all, but when she looked at this place again, it was just as clean.
Suddenly, Bai Lingshan realized, "You are friends."
This sentence is very clear and is an affirmative sentence.
Yu Hongye looked slightly strange and asked, "What's wrong?"
Bai Lingshan laughed again, but when she saw Yu Hongye's questioning eyes staring at her, she immediately regained her serious demeanor...
"What are you laughing at?" Yu Hongye asked again.
Bai Lingshan was stunned for a second. There were some things she didn't dare to say directly, so she could only shake her head awkwardly.
At this moment, Yu Hongye's eyes became sharp, and he immediately caught something from her little expressions, and then asked cautiously:
"I suspect you are making fun of me?"
Bai Lingshan screamed "Ah" instantly and looked at him quickly: "No...no..."
She just smiled, and he noticed?
At this moment, a golden light flashed near the stone table. After the two men noticed it, a man in a white gown sat down inside.
The man in white was estimated to be about 30 years old, but his eyebrows and hair were white with traces of time. He was holding a wooden mirror in his left hand and a dagger in his right hand, as if he was about to do something in front of the mirror.
Bai Lingshan was stunned when she saw this and looked at Yu Hongye who was equally confused.
"... Old Prisoner, what are you going to do?"
After Yu Hongye asked the question, the man put the blade of the dagger against the white beard on the side of his mouth, and with a few swishes, the beard that was scratched by the blade fell to the ground.
"You have to dress properly when you meet your friend, otherwise my appearance will scare people away!"
Afterwards, he shaved the remaining beard clean and slightly corrected his slightly messy white eyebrows. A few minutes later, he finally spoke again: "This is much better. It's a pity that I am old, otherwise I will definitely crush you with my black hair!"
"..."
Hearing this, Yu Hongye was speechless, and Bai Lingshan was also somewhat confused.
"Hey... I have been like this for the past three hundred years, but that doesn't mean I will still be like this three hundred years from now. I..."
"My friend came to see you and brought your favorite orchid wine. Since you have already drunk it, I have no choice but to take it back."
Yu Hongye quickly interrupted his drunken talk and showed some anger, but the man in white was pleased to hear his words and continued to admire his face: "Quick, quick, quick! The wine utensils are in the house, Hongye, go and get them out."
"..."
Yu Hongye was speechless again.
Bai Lingshan thought Yu Hongye would ignore him, but what she didn't expect was that he actually went to the thatched hut. Looking at the man in white in front of her, Bai Lingshan was very shocked.
At this time, the man in white finished admiring, took back the two things in his hands, and looked at Bai Lingshan who was looking at him and said: "Little girl, how should I call you?"
Bai Lingshan was startled at first, then immediately said:
"Bai Lingshan." As the man in white was pondering the name, Yu Hongye just happened to come out: "Xiaobai, bring the wine over."
Bai Lingshan said "Oh" in a daze, walked to the table, took off the cloth wrapping the wine jar, and carefully poured it into the small wine glass placed on the table. After Yu Hongye filled the glass, he handed it to him.
"This is Xiaobai,"
After Yu Hongye introduced her to the man in white, he looked back at Bai Lingshan:
"His last name is Suo, I usually call him Lao Suo,"
Hearing this, Bai Lingshan said "Oh" again.
But she was not satisfied with this introduction. After all, she couldn't call him Lao Suo.
Seeing that the man was tasting wine, he quietly pulled Yu Hongye over and asked in a low voice: "Then what should I call him?"
Yu Hongye was stunned for a moment: "Just call me Lao Suo like me."
"what?"
"Ah what?"
Because Bai Lingshan's "ah" was too loud, the man in white instantly lost interest in the wine in his hand. After a light laugh, he put down the glass.
"My full name is Suo Xifa, you can also call me Lao Suo like Hongye."
……
At this moment, when both of them were in a daze, Suo Xifa stood up. Just this standing made Bai Lingshan feel the pressure from the height again. She turned back and quickly looked at the top of Yu Hongye's head. This Suo Xifa was even taller than Yu Hongye...
"I heard about you from Hongye. Let me see the mark that guy gave you."
"What……"
Bai Lingshan cried out in shock. Facing Su Xifa's sudden question, Yu Hongye quickly changed his mindset, but after waiting for a long time, he didn't hear any follow-up content.
It’s not that Bai Lingshan refused to reply, but that she simply didn’t know how to reply.
Soxifa's expression turned serious and his tone became deep:
"For something like this to happen, there usually needs to be a connection point. Hongye said that you took out the Willow Leaf Knife at that time. I think he should have placed this connection on you."
Bai Lingshan let out a "hmm" sound, and the willow leaf mark on her left ear appeared in her mind.
This time she understood.
This is the secret that has been hidden for a long time and even Yu Hongye doesn’t know it.
He stole a glance at Yu Hongye, who looked confused, and awkwardly raised his hand to lift the bangs covering her left ear.
At this moment, the willow leaf mark appeared in their eyes.
Yu Hongye narrowed his eyes slightly after seeing this, while Suo Xifa seemed to have everything under control.
"That's right. That's why the guy connected with her and affected her judgment."
"Does this mark represent approval?"
In response to Yu Hongye's question, Bai Lingshan still carefully looked at their facial expressions.
Su Xifa nodded after hearing this, and then he began to think: "As for how to connect with him, it should be related to your state at that time."
"My condition?" Bai Lingshan was also confused.
She only remembered that when she saw Hua Ying, she thought of the incident that had made her angry. Then, her ears began to feel hot, and then she heard the voice of Qi Lingsha. "I was very angry at that time, and then..."
The scene that Yu Hongye saw appeared.
