After a happy meal, Ling Tian and Lian Xin went out for a walk, looking at the surrounding environment as they walked:

This is a small village, in a large mountain, with more than 20 simple families living there, most of them are hunters. Perhaps it is lunch time, and the smoke from the cooking pots lingers on the mountainside, as if it is covering the green mountains.

There is a layer of gauze, and there are a few barking dogs and roosters crowing from time to time, making it look even more peaceful and distant.

Seeing Ling Tian and the others coming out, many neighbors greeted them in a friendly manner, and some teenagers even affectionately called Brother Tian and pestered him to take them hunting on Qingyun Mountain.

That's right, the surrounding green mountains are called Qingyun Mountain, and they have been called that way for generations.

This green mountain stretches for tens or hundreds of miles, isolating this small village from the rest of the world. Only a canyon connects the outside world. People in the village hunt on Qingyun Mountain, and use the meat and skins from hunting to exchange for daily needs with the outside world, because Qingyun

The mountains are rich in products and there are many wild animals. Life in this small village is worry-free, just like a paradise.

"Young Emperor, you have recovered from your illness. Why don't you take a good rest at home for a few days? Your little lady has been very anxious the past few days." A middle-aged woman greeted Ling Tian and the others cordially, with a hint of constriction in her tone.

mean.

"Aunt Zhang, why am I so anxious?" Lian Xin was so shy that she hurriedly changed the subject: "Aunt Zhang, thanks to you and Uncle Li this time, when my husband-in-law rests for a few days, he will definitely let him kill a few more wild animals to honor you.

.”

"See how polite you are, it's a trivial matter..." Uncle Li on the side said nonchalantly. He rubbed his lame legs and feet: "My bad old man has bad legs and feet. Thanks to the little emperor's help these years, otherwise my old man would have been long gone."

No more."

On the side, listening to the conversation between Ling Tian and others, a picture emerged in Ling Tian's mind, which was exactly the scene of getting along with these neighbors on a daily basis. Everything that was originally strange gradually became clear, and he laughed: "Li

Uncle, you are so polite. You have watched me grow up over the years and you treat me like your own son. I should respect you, right?"

"Haha, your mouth is getting sweeter and sweeter..." Li Shulang laughed, stroking his beard and comforting him.

"Uncle Ling, you're awake." A slightly childish voice came. Following this voice, a tough-headed young man came flying towards him. He was very excited when he saw Ling Tian: "Uncle Ling, could you please do this before you get sick?"

You have promised me that you will take me into the mountains for hunting, but you must not keep your promises."

The first time he saw the young man, Ling Tian's heart jumped suddenly. A figure appeared in his mind, and he murmured: "Huzi, you are Huzi..."

"Brother Huzi, wait for me." A crisp but childish voice sounded. Following this voice, a teenage girl ran from a distance. She was overjoyed to see Ling Tian standing in front of her.

: "Uncle Ling, are you healed? That's great. When are we going to the mountains? I want to catch a few ferrets and get a mink coat for my mother. She is most afraid of the cold in winter."

"Yao Mei..." Ling Tian blurted out. Looking carefully, the girl looked exactly like Yao Mei when she was a girl.

For some reason, Ling Tian vaguely recalled the scenes of him cultivating immortals and Hu Zi and Yaomei worshiping him as their disciples. However, like a dream, these became increasingly blurred and he could no longer remember them.

Seeing Ling Tian's hesitation, Hu Zi and the two thought he had gone back on his word, and they were anxious: "Uncle Ling, how could you do this? You have already promised us, so don't cheat..."

"Okay, okay, you Uncle Ling won't be cheating." Seeing that Ling Tian didn't speak, Lian Xin thought that Ling Tian was just recovering from a serious illness and was confused, so she came to the rescue: "But that's up to you, Uncle Ling, too.

Recover, you also know that he has been ill for a long time this time and will need to recover for a while."

"Oh, that's true." Yaomei said. Although she said so, she pouted her lips and looked dissatisfied.

"Okay, okay, I promise you." Ling Tian vaguely remembered the promise he had made to the two of them before, and nodded readily: "But it will take three days. In this short period of time, you should prepare bows and arrows as well as some dry food and water."

"Dad, he has made a bow and arrow for me a long time ago. It's very convenient." When he mentioned the bow and arrow, Huzi's face was full of excitement, but when he thought of something, he looked at Ling Tian with envy on his face: "But it's far better than nothing."

The big bow used by Uncle Ling seems to have a bow and arrow like this."

"Tsk tsk, I think it's better to forget it. Even if Uncle Ling gives you the bow, you won't be able to draw it. Not only you, but other than Uncle Ling, I'm afraid no one in our whole village can draw it." Yaomei joked, looking at it.

Ling Tian's face was full of admiration.

"Yes, Uncle Ling is born with supernatural powers, and only he can draw that bow." Huzi murmured, with envy on his face.

The next few people talked about something else. Ling Tian and Lian Xin continued to walk. As they wandered around, his memory of the village became clearer and clearer. He also remembered many things, such as helping Grandpa Sun collect medicine last year.

When I went hunting with Long Shun from next door, I encountered a big black bear...

After wandering around for a long time, it was soon time for dinner, and everyone was cooking. Ling Tian and his wife also returned home. As agreed at noon, Lian Xin cooked some corn, while Ling Tian cooked some roast rabbit.

Peeling, cleaning, applying ingredients, making fire, and putting it on the shelf, everything is so skillful and natural, as if it has been done countless times. Soon, the rich aroma fills the air, and the smell is so refreshing that people can't help but move their fingers.

What happened after that was very simple. The couple ate, chatted, and both fell asleep.

Time passed slowly, and more than half a year passed in the blink of an eye.

During the past six months, Ling Tian went into the mountains to hunt with the young people in the village, naturally taking Hu Zi and Yaomei with him.

He seems to have a strong talent for bows and arrows, and he has an innate sense of hunting. Whether it is large prey such as wild boars, tigers, stupid bears, or small animals such as hares and martens, they cannot escape him.

Hunting down, it can be said that he gained a lot every time he entered the mountains.

There were too many prey to eat, so Ling Tian gave them to the old people in the village, and the excess meat was taken to the market to exchange for daily needs. The life was ordinary but warm.

Over the past six months, he has become more and more familiar with his current life and more and more satisfied with his current situation.

On this day, Lingtian, Huzi, and Yaomei were hunting. Suddenly, a dog barked. Following the sound, a black shadow shot out. The bark became more and more urgent, and everyone could see clearly that it was

A big black dog, as tall as half a man.

"Hey, why is Heizi here?" Looking at the big dog with loose black fur, Huzi was puzzled: "And the barking is so rapid, something must have happened!"

Look carefully at the big black dog. The black hair is spread like satin. It is as huge as a black bear. His eyes are as bright as black gems. He runs like the wind and roars like a wolf. He is majestic.

This black dog was raised by Ling Tian and his family. It was named Heizi. Ling Tian found it when he went hunting many years ago. At that time, it was just a cub the size of a fist. However, his mother died tragically and he was the only one left.

, Ling Tian saw how pitiful it was, so he took it home and kept it until now.

According to the elders in the village, Heizi has the blood of a wolf and is extremely ferocious, but he is also quite spiritual.

When Ling Tian saw Heizi for the first time after recovering from his serious illness, he blurted out the word "little bite" and vaguely thought of the word "biter" in his mind. However, after being corrected by Lian Xin, he realized that it was called "big bite".

Hei, they all used to call him Heizi.

Heizi is quite spiritual, and is usually arranged by Ling Tian to protect Lian Xin at home. When he saw it coming in a hurry, Ling Tian looked stern, worried about Lian Xin's safety. However, he saw that Heizi did not reveal the normal wolf blood.

He breathed a long sigh of relief, knowing that Lian Xin was not in any danger.

Heizi came to Ling Tian, ​​opened his mouth and pulled Ling Tian's clothes, as if dragging him, the meaning was self-evident.

Afraid, Ling Tian patted Heizi and chuckled: "Heizi, did Lian Xin ask you to call me back?"

"Woof woof..." Heizi barked several times and nodded repeatedly.

With a slight smile, Ling Tian turned to look at Huzi and Yaomei: "I will teach you these today. Come on, follow me back."

Nodding, Yaomei jumped up, stepped on the branch, and then used her strength to swing lightly, turning and landing on Heizi's back. At this time, she was only a girl of twelve or thirteen years old, with a small figure.

Even sitting on Heizi is a bit inconspicuous.

"Hehe, Heizi, let's go back, let's go back first!" Yaomei patted Heizi's fur and said seductively: "I shot a few rabbits today. Let's go back and get some roasted rabbit meat."

Hearing the word 'rabbit meat', Heizi salivated, and then he ran away like a black shadow, going very fast, much faster than when he came.

Shaking his head and smiling bitterly, Ling Tian and Hu Zi also turned back.

As soon as he arrived at the outskirts of the village, Ling Tian heard a lot of people talking, and at the door of his house, he suddenly became nervous. However, when he heard the happy words of these people, he breathed a sigh of relief, and faintly heard a few words: "pregnant"

', 'It's over' and so on.

"Could it be Lian Xin..." Thinking of a certain possibility, Ling Tian's eyes lit up. He was so excited that he moved faster.

When Ling Tianzhe returned to the door of his house, all the neighbors gathered around him, and everyone said congratulations and congratulations. Everyone was smiling, cordial and warm.

"Lian Xin is pregnant, am I going to be a father?" Ling Tian murmured, as if he was dumbfounded, with a look of disbelief on his face.

"Look at your worthless boy. You have been married for more than half a year. Isn't it normal for Lotus Heart to be moving now?" Aunt Zhang laughed and scolded: "But think about it, this is the first time for your boy to be like this. It's normal for you to be excited. Back then,

My old man is not as calm as you."

"Haha, yes, Lao Zhang was so excited that he jumped up and down, shouting all over the village, as if he was afraid that others wouldn't know." Lao Li laughed loudly on the side, and his words could not be concealed with joy.

"Haha, Grandpa Li, I heard grandma say that you were..." A group of people were joking and playing.
