Opened his eyes, picked up the phone, Lian Ge didn't stay on the bed any longer, got up and sat up,
"...Man, tell me, is there a dog outside, and they haven't called me at this point."
The moment the phone was picked up, Gu Xiaoying's voice rang out,
"Yes, there is a dog. This dog is called 'Cultivation'. He is obsessed with cultivation, day and night, unable to extricate himself." Lian Ge glanced at Gu Xiaoying on the video call, and said in reply.
"Heh, man, is it because my sister is not beautiful enough? Or is it because I am not coquettish enough? Well, it made you addicted to cultivation?" As she spoke, Gu Xiaoying even lifted her legs, turned over on the bed, and made a seductive posture .
"Sister, you are so coquettish." Lian Ge couldn't help smiling, then put on his shoes, stood up, and walked out of the bedroom,
"Student Xiaoying is a goblin, who tempts my Dao heart all day long, and you are my heart demon in the process of cultivation."
"I didn't expect my little Taoist to like this tune, come here, let me eat you, Elder Fairy..."
……
While playing and chatting with Gu Xiaoying, Lian Ge stepped out of the bedroom and walked into the main room.
"Hey, Lian Ge, I see that the package sent to you earlier has been signed for, have you received it?"
"The little white mouse?"
Lian Ge took the water glass and poured himself a glass of water, and replied at the same time.
"Yes, didn't you ask me to send it to you?"
Hearing this, Lian Ge took a sip of water first, then nodded,
"I haven't got it yet, but it's coming soon. I've heard its voice."
"Why didn't I hear it?"
"Maybe the earphones are not good at picking up sound."
"Why do you feel like you're bluffing me?"
Hearing this, Lian Ge smiled, put down the water glass in his hand, turned around and walked towards the courtyard gate outside the main room.
"crunch..."
After putting down the latch, Lian Ge opened the courtyard door.
Outside the courtyard gate, Second Uncle happened to walk in front of the courtyard gate. When he saw the courtyard door suddenly opened, he couldn't help being stunned.
"Xiaoge, are you going out?"
Hearing this, Lian Ge shook his head, then turned sideways,
"Come in, uncle."
Hearing this, Second Uncle Lian was stunned again, but he still walked into the courtyard.
"Xiaoge, you are really getting more and more amazing now, you knew I was coming before I even knocked on the door?"
"crunch..."
After closing the door again, Lian Ge turned his head and smiled upon hearing this,
"It's just that my hearing is better, I just heard your footsteps, Second Uncle."
Hearing this, Second Uncle has a look of disbelief, the expression of you fooling me again.
Seeing this, Lian Ge didn't say much, turned around and walked back into the main room.
"Second Uncle, why are you here now?"
Lian Ge walked to the water dispenser, took a glass of water with a disposable paper cup, and put it on the table in front of Second Uncle Lian,
"Oh, by the way, isn't this the postman who came here just now? I saw your package and brought it for you."
With that said, Second Uncle Lian handed a package wrapped in a cardboard box to Lian Ge,
Following the movement, you can faintly hear the cry of the little white mouse inside.
"Second Uncle, please make a special trip."
Lian Ge took the cardboard box, put it aside, and said to Second Uncle Lian.
"It's not a special trip, so I brought it here for you." The second uncle waved his hand, and then continued,
"It's your great uncle who asked me to come here and ask you about something."
"Second uncle, tell me,"
Lian Ge nodded upon hearing this.
"It's mainly about the ancestor worship. Didn't you say that as long as the ancestor worship ceremony is not over, you can't stop the mountain patrol at night?
Even if the ancestor worship ceremony is completely over this morning, will we still patrol the mountain tonight? "The second uncle didn't hesitate, and asked directly,
Hearing this, Lian Ge looked towards the ancestral hall in the distance. After a day's time, there was no trace of smoke in the sky above the ancestral hall.
"Since the ancestor worship ceremony is over, there is no need." Lian Ge responded.
Hearing this, the second uncle nodded first, then took out something from his pocket,
"Look at that little song, you sent this talisman before, and now it is returned to you?"
"There's no need to return the talisman." Lian Ge smiled slightly as he saw the second uncle's reluctance.
Raising his head, he glanced at the still solid barrier in the sky, then turned his eyes back to look at Second Uncle again,
"Although there is no need to patrol the mountain tonight, I still suggest that we do a special mountain tour every month or every two months. Of course, if anyone doesn't want to, I don't force it." Lian Ge was somewhat casual said.
"Since it's what you say, Xiao Ge, how can they not be willing." Hearing that the talisman does not need to be returned, the second uncle of the Lian family was a little happy, "Just for this talisman, they will definitely be willing."
Hearing this, Lian Ge smiled slightly, paused, and added,
"If it's not necessary, try not to change the people who patrol the mountain in the future, and don't lose the talisman."
Hearing this, Second Uncle Lian nodded solemnly,
"Okay, I must give them a few more words of advice."
Saying that, Second Uncle Lian hesitated again, and asked,
"Xiaoge, I have also patrolled the mountain a few times these days. I feel that after a few days, not only I am not very tired, but my body seems to be much stronger. Is this..."
Hearing Uncle Lian's words, Lian Ge just smiled and didn't answer.
Seeing this, Second Uncle Lian generally understood, didn't ask any more questions, and stood up from the stool in the main room again.
"That little song, I have nothing else to do here, so I'll go back first."
Hearing this, Lian Ge also stood up, nodded,
"Then second uncle, go slowly."
……
After sending the second uncle to the courtyard gate, Lian Ge closed the courtyard gate again after seeing him walking away, turned around and walked back to the main room.
"Lian Ge..."
It seems that Lian Ge's side has quieted down again, and Gu Xiaoying, who has been on the phone all the time and has been silent all this time, speaks again,
"The second uncle asked the question just now, is it the role of your 'human formation'?"
Gu Xiaoying's tone seemed a little curious.
Hearing this, Lian Ge took out his phone and looked at it again, and gave Gu Xiaoying a simple explanation,
"Well, people and formations complement each other. When people strengthen the formation, the formation will also feed back people. However, this kind of feedback effect is limited. At most, it can make people healthier and less likely to get sick."
"That's amazing."
"When the village needs people to patrol the mountains, they are willing to stand up. This is what they deserve."
Lian Ge said casually, while walking into the main room, he lifted the package containing the mouse to the table.
"Is this cause and effect? Hmm...or is it called a burden?" Gu Xiaoying thought about it and asked,
"No, it pleases me."
Lian Ge smiled and said, and then put the phone on the side table.
"Thorn..."
Withdrawing his gaze, Lian Ge turned his gaze to the parcel box in front of him, tore off the transparent tape on the carton, and opened the box, revealing the iron cage containing the mice.
"Wow..."
Holding the tighter iron cage, Lian Ge pulled it out of the cardboard box.
"Boom."
Gently placing the iron cage on the ground again, Lian Ge cast his eyes on the little white mouse inside.
Perhaps because of the stuffiness during the transportation, the little white mouse looked a little sleepy. Although it squeaked, it didn't move much.
Chapter 71
"Squeak... squeak."
In the iron cage, the little white mouse was lying on the spot. Although it felt the change in the environment, it only squeaked twice.
"Thorn..."
Lian Ge tore off a piece of cardboard from the cardboard box next to him, then squatted down, and with the help of the cardboard, poked the little white mouse that didn't move very much.
"Squeak..."
After slightly shifting his position, he let out a weak cry twice, and lay down again.
"Clap."
Throwing the cardboard aside, Lian Ge looked at the sickly mouse and shook his head,
Standing up again, Lian Ge walked towards the other side of the hall.
"Lian Ge..."
Gu Xiaoying's voice came from the phone that had been on the call all the time,
"Why didn't you hear much about the little white mouse?"
Hearing this, Lian Ge, who walked to the drinking fountain, explained briefly and replied,
"The condition of the little white mouse is not very good, probably because it was suffocated during the transportation."
While talking, Lian Ge took a paper cup from the water dispenser, and simply tore off the wall of the cup with his hands, leaving only a shallow layer of the bottom of the cup, and took some water under the water dispenser.
Turning around, holding a shallow paper cup, Lian Ge returned to the table in the main room, and put the water in the cage, in front of the little white mouse.
"Squeak... squeak."
The little white mouse sniffed the water in the paper cup, took a couple of sips, and lay down again.
Seeing this, Lian Ge shook his head slightly, then stood up again,
"Then Lian Ge, what should we do now, feed him some food and some water?"
Gu Xiaoying's voice sounded again.
"The water has been fed, as for the food,"
Lian Ge glanced at the traces of food left on the iron cage and the carton,
"Have you prepared food for it on the way?"
"I'm ready, I'm afraid it will be hungry on the way, so I specially sprinkled food into the box where it was stored."
"Well, I don't think it's hungry either."
Walking back to the table, Lian Ge picked up the phone and looked at the picture on Gu Xiaoying's side on the screen.
"Then what to do now?"
Gu Xiaoying lay on the bed, propped her chin, and asked.
"Let him take it easy first, and look at it tomorrow morning."
Glancing at the little white mouse lying in the cage on the ground, Lian Ge shook his head and said.
