Physically and mentally exhausted, Ji Yuan didn’t think much about it and chose to go back to his room to sleep.
I had been unable to sleep for most of the night, and was greatly frightened. Now I went to bed and fell asleep within a short time.
I slept until dawn, and slept until the sun rose.
“Oh…”
Ji Yuan yawned and stretched. He got up from the bed and looked in the direction of the door and window. Even with the window paper between them, he could see that it was already bright outside.
After getting dressed, he moved around and opened the door. The slanting sunlight shone on his body, making Ji Yuan feel warm.
Energy is sufficient, and there is no pain or itching on the body. It seems that there should be no sequelae from last night. Ji Yuan plans to try again later to see if his vital special ability has been affected.
The jujube branches in the courtyard are swaying slightly, and the sun shines through the trees and falls mottled on the ground. The gloomy feeling of Ju’an Xiaoge is gone.
As a person with the soul of a young person in the 21st century, what do you do when you get up? Of course, brush your teeth and wash your hands!
In the past, at Yunlai Inn, the innkeeper would bring fresh willow branches and water every day, but now I have to do it myself.
Looking at the well in the courtyard and thinking about the way the ghost emerged from it last night, Ji Yuan rejected the idea of drawing water from this well in a fraction of a second.
‘Let’s use water from outside in the future…’
Ji Yuan felt that even if he wasn’t a germophobe, any of his friends from the previous life would not have used this well.
When he went out to the yard, Ji Yuan directly picked up the wooden board to cover the well, and then pressed the stones on it.
Looking at the large vat and two buckets outside the kitchen door, yes, we still have to carry water.
I’ve never seen pork, I’ve never seen pigs running, and although I’ve never carried water myself, how can this possibly defeat my plan to evade the tiger spirit and stand up to retreat from the evil spirit?
. . .
Ten minutes later, Tianniufang Shuangjingpu, there are two large wells with pulley frames, surrounded by many bluestone slabs and water diversion ditches. It is a place where the people of Tienniufang collect water and wash clothes in public, and also chat and gossip. Great place.
All the way away, Ji Yuan heard a lot of people talking about hearing a terrifying scream last night. Some people were also saying that there was a lot of movement in the direction of Ju’an Pavilion yesterday, and they suspected that someone was going to live in it again. .
‘ Based on this information, it is speculated that the big noises in the second half of last night should have been blocked by some formation. Otherwise, how could the people be so calm, but I could hear it last night outside the formation. It seems that my ears Hearing is not limited to the normal range, but also the nose! ’
Ji Yuan, a handsome stranger in a wide-sleeved robe, came here to fetch water, which naturally attracted the attention of the people of Tianniufang, especially some girls and women who were doing laundry.
Hearing those whispers and feeling those glances, Ji Yuan was not embarrassed at all. On the contrary, he was quite happy. In his previous life, he did not have such a high rate of turning heads.
Thick-skinned people are more likely to be happy!
“Hey, who is this…”
“I’ve never seen it before, it looks so good!”
“You come here to fetch water. You must live in Tianniufang or nearby, right?”
“I don’t know!”
The sound of chatting was mixed with the sound of clothes being washed and the sound of wooden boards being slapped. There were also people chatting about their parents’ affairs, and the footsteps of passers-by passing by.
Ji Yuan rolled up his sleeves and tied the cuffs at his elbows, and used a windlass to fetch water in a very novel way. The water buckets in the well were small. It took two times to fill one of Ji Yuan’s buckets. After four trips back and forth, The two buckets brought were filled.
During this process, Ji Yuan was also patiently observing the people of Tianniufang. Hearing from their parents’ filial piety, this ancient life atmosphere was much richer than that of the community in his previous life.
Well, people are also very shy. Ji Yuan just looks for a sound and turns his head. Those younger girls will turn their heads and dare not look at each other.
Ji Yuan filled the bucket, put down the shoulder pole, picked up the load and walked forward in a decent manner.
“Crash…”
The water in the bucket at the back spilled directly onto the clothes and robes. Ji Yuan subconsciously wanted to avoid it, but the two buckets swayed more violently, and his heels hit the buckets, causing water to fly everywhere for a while.
At this moment, the already extremely poor eyesight also had a great impact, and the whole person was simply swaying forward and back like a Yangko.
“Hey, hey, hey…”
Hold on, hold on! !
“Bang…” “Bang…”
Both buckets fell, and half of Ji Yuan’s clothes were splashed with water.
“Ahahahahahaha…” “Hehehehehe…”
“Uh hahahahahahaha…”
The woman and the passers-by laughed loudly when they saw this scene.
“What a gentle gentleman!”
“Hahahaha, mom, he doesn’t even know how to pick water!!”
“Oh, you made me laugh so hard. I’m carrying water like this and I’m still dangling to death, hahahahaha…”
Holy shit, shit, shit! ! ! What a shame! ! !
It turns out that carrying water is also a technical job!
Even if he has been practicing his shamelessness for two lifetimes, his face will feel hot now. In front of everyone, this prank is really low-level!
Fortunately, there are no acquaintances now!
However, the way to get rid of this embarrassment is actually very simple. As long as you are not embarrassed, it will be fine. In fact, your eyes are not easy to use, so what’s the point of saving face!
So Ji Yuan shook his head and laughed casually.
“Hahahahaha…it’s not easy to carry water!!”
After saying this with a smile, Ji Yuan leaned down and reached out to fumble for the bucket rolled aside and the pole on the ground. This action was very different from that of a normal person, and finally made others notice Ji Yuan’s eyes.
“Hey, that person seems to have bad eyesight!!”
“Yeah, just now I was wondering why he couldn’t seem to open his eyes…”
“This…he still carries water by himself?”
…
The laughter has disappeared. It seems that most people in Ning’an are still simple and will not really laugh at a blind man, well, except for that **** broker.
“Sir, let me help you carry water!”
A crisp voice sounded from the side, and Ji Yuan actually heard footsteps approaching. At this moment, he just touched the pole and looked for the sound. It was a man who looked about eleven or twelve years old, looking for Shuyuanwｗw.zhaｏshuyuan. com A dark but handsome boy.
Huh? Pretty? You can actually see him clearly!
Now Ji Yuan couldn’t help but look at the little boy who took the initiative to help. According to his experience in the past two days, it seems that those who can be seen clearly by him are not too ordinary.
“What’s your name, little kid? How old are you?”
The little boy was a little dazed when he saw Ji Yuan’s pale eyes, and it took him a while to react.
“My name is Yin Qing. I am already twelve years old. I often help my family carry water. I am very strong!”
Ji Yuan smiled and nodded, then listened to the sounds around him. He didn’t find the child’s family nearby, but he heard the playfulness of a group of children not far away. It seemed that Yin Qing came out to play on his own.
“Thank you!”
It is really embarrassing to let children carry water, but Ji Yuan also wants to use this opportunity to observe Yin Qing.
“It’s okay, it’s okay!”
As soon as Ji Yuan finished speaking, Yin Qing had already picked up the two buckets, took the pole and trotted back to the well. He looked like a lively, cheerful and helpful ordinary child.
. . .
“Mr. Big, where is your home? Haven’t you arrived yet? Do you still want to go forward?”
He and Ji Yuan walked deeper and deeper toward the east corner of Tianniu Lane, and the number of people around them began to decrease.
“Almost there, just ahead!”
Ji Yuan looked at this child from time to time, and felt that it gave him a very spiritual feeling.
After a while, Yin Qing paused outside the courtyard of Ju’an Xiaoge, looking at Ji Yuan who was also stopping here with a sad face.
“Mr. Big…you live here…”
This expression makes Ji Yuan cute and funny.
“Yes, I live here. I just moved here yesterday. Why, won’t Yin Xiaowa’er help Ji carry water in?”
