(Please recommend, collect, ask for footprints, all sad begging! Let the book review area of Beixu become popular!)

Stuart. Angie. Joanne was busy putting meat into the dough in her hand while muttering something in her little mouth.

Zhong Li stood in front of the window outside the little girl's kitchen and looked at the busy little beauty in the window.

Advanced stealth was performed in front of the little girl, and the little girl was unaware of Zhong Li outside the window.

In the memory of that unlucky man, there has always been a strong feeling of gratitude. Moreover, most of his memory clips are related to the little girl in front of him who is less than 14 years old.

Old Stuart took this little granddaughter and relied on the few mu of medicinal fields left by his ancestors to plant some common and easy-to-care medicinal herbs, barely to make a living.

But in the memory of the unlucky man, if it hadn't been for the care of his grandparents and grandchildren who were civilians like him, I'm afraid he would have starved to death many times.

Along the way, Zhong Li had secretly looked at the medicinal herbs in the old Stuart's medicine field and was very surprised.

Iron Lotus, Malancao, Oolong Beard, Tianyuncao, News Fruit, Lilac, Wild**, and several medicinal materials needed to refine other elixirs. Basically, at this stage, he can start refining hemostatic elixir and qi tonic elixir, only orange peel.

This surprised Zhong Li's heart a little.

Medicinal materials and elixir, in terms of value, are two completely different concepts. Usually, the value of hundreds of medicinal herbs is less than a fraction of the value of a finished elixir.

At this moment, looking at Joanne's busy appearance in front of him, Zhong Li's unspeakable warmth, listened to the little girl talking to herself from time to time, unconsciously tears moistened his eyes, and he did not notice it at all.

September 11, the little girl Jordani is 14 years old.

The little girl less than 14 years old has a beautiful embryo.

Maybe it's a nutritional problem. The little girl's body, which is almost 14 years old, seems to be too petite and exquisite, especially the height of less than 1.5 meters has always been a trouble for the little girl. But the beautiful face, excessively white skin, and big blue eyes are infinitely bright.

The unique little nose bridge is like a delicate arc bridge. What attracts Zhong Li most is the two shallow dimples on the little girl's cheeks.

Through a window, the light green thick linen dress on the little girl could not completely hide the strong youth emanating from her body.

It's good to be young. Zhong Li secretly praised, but he never thought that he was only 17 years old.

"Big lazy, big lazy, why don't you get up at noon? Doesn't your stomach scream? Really, I won't leave you food later. Let's see if I'm not hungry to beat you, hehe..."

Although he said this, Zhong Li clearly saw that the little girl put the largest piece of meat stuffing in the largest cake, and Zhong Li was sure that this big meat pie must have been left by Denny's sister.

Zhong Li's heart was entangled by an inexplicable emotion, and his tears unconsciously wet his cheeks.

This inevitably reminds him of the sporadic and complete vivid pictures of too many memories. Those plots of getting along with this little girl day and night inevitably think of Xiao Li and the 19 little guys after they suddenly lost him.

The world is not fair to say, but it is fair.

Before crossing, Zhong Li depended on 19 orphans. The little guys were all abandoned children of that society. They were three years old and the oldest little plum was 11 years old.

The days with those little guys are so happy and warm. Even after Zhong Li entered Nine Days of Phoenix Dance, he has been deliberately controlling his time in the game and trying to spend most of his time with the children.

It is really an unbreakable truth that the children of poor families are in charge early.

Even the youngest sister, the little girl who is a little over three years old, is so sensible and knows how to work hard to learn knowledge. Not to mention the eldest 11-year-old little plum, Zhong Li once told 19 little guys that in three years, he could do everything Zhong Li can do now.

Although Zhong Li's territory is an absolutely cautious and closed basement, how advanced the technology in the 27th century has developed.

There are all kinds of facilities and equipment, from daily necessities to all kinds of machinery, and all of which are created little by Zhong Li's hands.

This is the reason why he has always maintained a god-like status in the hearts of 19 little guys, and it is also the point that he is always proud and proud.

Apart from the shocking wealth created in the nine days of Fengwu, in fact, Zhong Li was ready to ensure that the 19 little guys would live a happy and healthy life.

Accidental time travel and unexpected separation are the deepest pain and greatest regret in Zhong Li's heart now. However, when he saw the kind, simple and beautiful girl in front of him, Jordani, he remembered the huge human debt that the unlucky man owed Stuart's ancestors and grandchildren. On the one hand, Zhong Li sighed that God was still fair. He has lost nineteen brothers and sisters, but he has received the meticulous care of a pair of grandchildren. On the other hand, this also makes Zhong Li quickly break away from the confusion of crossing, because everything in front of him has forced him to do something, for the girl in front of him, for the old Stuart, for himself——

Perhaps, he can still rewrite the legend and glory of Fengwu in the nine days, although he clearly knows how difficult and dangers he will face.

Because he is Zhong Li, a unique man who is born to write legends. He has the obligation to work hard to change something, break something, create something, and perhaps for those millions of people who have never been masked. People in the same situation as him.

"What's wrong with Brother Zhong Li today? In the past, I have been noisy and hungry. Why can't I come here today? Is it sick? -- Hey, Grandpa has been in town for a long time, and he doesn't know whether the medicinal materials are selling well or not. If he can't get the money back, he will have to cut off food at home in a few days.

The thirteen-year-old girl said to herself, and her beautiful face was full of worry, which made Zhong Li's heart feel like being pricked by a long needle, and twitched violently several times. The tears that had just been wiped out almost came out of her eyes again.

Jordani's pancakes seemed to take a while before they could be cooked. Zhong Li resolutely turned around and went straight to the only strongest and driest room of the old Stuart's house. Without any obstacles, he went straight through the wall.

This is Stuart's dry medicine warehouse.

Each pharmaceutical farmer will take the mature medicinal materials home. After cleaning, they will dry them according to the requirements of those drug dealers, and then put them in a dry and unventilated pharmacy for storage. Some will even wait for the market price and think the market is good before taking action.

However, the evil nobles or those drug dealers are all embarrassed to rape a nostril. The medicinal materials that they rely on for survival in the hands of civilian drug farmers have always been ruthlessly squeezing on prices. Families like Old Stuart, who can barely make a living, are already very I am good at managing medicinal fields and herbs.

In the dark dry medicine warehouse, he smelled all kinds of familiar medicinal herbs. In an instant, Zhong Li seemed to return to the nine days of Fengwu. At this moment, he is still the master-level player of his life profession--

Old Stuart. Besson carried 30 catties of rice noodles on his right shoulder and a cloth bag in his left hand.

The cloth bag contained half a catty of real rice wine, which cost five copper coins, which made the old man's meat hurt for a long time.

There are also two catties of fresh beef, which is the little girl and Bruce. Zhong Li has been thinking about things for a long time. Since the medicinal materials have been sold 60 more copper coins this time, the old man can't bear the pain to satisfy his alcohol addiction and the dissatisfaction of the two little guys.

The three-mile road is not long, and the old man took a break for the first time, which made him very panic.

Thinking of his physical weakness and some terrible possibility, it seems that suddenly the old man's heart and lungs began to tighten, and the air between heaven and earth had a posture that could not supply his needs, because the old man was too gasping. If Zhong Li was by his side at this moment, he would definitely say that there was nothing, that is, a health ill. Bronchi asthma, pay attention to the regulation of cold and warm, and eat more things that nourish yin and moisten the lungs can be controlled.

But how can the old man know this?

With the alternation of the seasons, especially this July, the temperature difference between morning and evening has changed too much, and the old man has bronchial asthma.

This is the reason why he usually walked more than three miles in one breath, but today he can't stand the need to take a rest.

However, the old man in his fifties was very worried, not about his life and death, but about how miserable the two little guys would be without his own care.

After wiping the sweat from his forehead, the old man felt that his breath was smoother. He was afraid that the girl would be worried at home, so he quickly picked up the small cloth bag and continued to walk home with rice noodles.

From afar, he saw the little girl sitting on the short wooden stool in front of the door, holding her hand and staring at the little girl here, who had not changed a little for more than ten years. The old man felt that his feet seemed to have added some strength, and his steps seemed to be much lighter, and he couldn't help it. Accelerate the pace.

Joanne sat on the low stool and thought about something. She was so distracted that she didn't even find her grandfather hundreds of meters away.

Suddenly, she felt that her face was like a caterpillar climbing up. She jumped up with fear and slapped her hands randomly on her face, but suddenly found that the smiling Zhong Li was proudly shaking a dog tail grass on her hand.

"Damn, it turned out to be you--big lazy, bad brother, you know how to scare me. When grandpa comes back, I will definitely sue you to bully me!"

This time, the little girl quit. Her two little hands were inserted into Qianqian's small waist, pouted her little mouth, and her face turned red with anger.

"Anne, can't I be wrong? Next time I won't do it again. Please don't report me in front of Grandpa, or you can beat me twice!"

Zhong Li made a submissive appearance of beating and punishment. For a moment, the little girl had no choice but still pouted: "Big lazy man, I don't know that if you get up early, you can sleep until noon. It's really a head---"

The little girl still couldn't say the word behind it, which shows that she still cares about Zhong Li very much.

Zhong Li threw away the dog tail grass in his hand and still smiled. He pretended to be mysteriously in the little girl's ear and whispered, "Anne, I'm going to give you and Grandpa a big surprise later. Do you believe it?"

The little girl is obviously not on the road. Maybe she has long been used to Zhong Li's usual. She curled her mouth and couldn't bear to hit Zhong Li: "Brother Zhong Li, don't make me happy. We are about to run out of food. What else can we surprise? If you give me a bunch of roast beef now, I believe you are a surprise, hee hee——"

After saying that, I was a little embarrassed. After all, greedy is still not a good habit.

"What is roast beef? I'm going to take my sister Annie and grandpa to the best restaurant in town for the best meal! Eat as much as you want! You can order whatever you want! How about it?" Zhong Li deliberately raised his head, but made the words sound.

"Who is bragging there? It's good to have a big pancake. What else do you want to eat? These two dead children--"

"Grandpa--" Danny ran to the old Stuart, "Grandpa, you're back! Are you tired? Hurry up and give me something, Brother Zhong Li. Why don't you go and pour a cup of hot water for Grandpa?

The little girl hurriedly took the rice bag on her grandfather's shoulder, looking sadly at his grandfather who was gasping heavily, shouting Zhong Li.

"Grandpa is back!" As soon as he said this sentence, Zhong Li knew that he had completely said goodbye to the world, because this sentence was from his heart and full of true feelings. He had completely integrated himself into Bruce. In Zhong Li's soul and emotions, from now on, it is difficult for the two Zhong Li to distinguish from each other and combine into one.

Zhong Li turned around and ran into the kitchen, found a kettle, poured a cup full of warm water, and hurriedly brought it to the old Stuart, who was sitting on the low stool in front of the door.

With his experience as a professional master, Zhong Li could see at a glance what kind of disease the loving grandfather in front of him was suffering from.

Almost without thinking, a fragrant pill flew into the cup he was holding and melted into the water in an instant.

"Grandpa, drink some water first." Zhong Li respectfully presented the water cup to the old man in front of him.

Old Besson nodded and couldn't speak. He took the glass of water and drank the full glass of water clean in one breath.

Zhong Li's eyes flashed with an extreme light of relief.

"Huh, Zhong Li, why is this water so delicious today? Grandpa felt breathless after drinking, as if the old problem had been cured. Look, am I still out of breath now? Immediately, old Besson found that some wonderful changes had taken place in himself after drinking water, and he couldn't help asking.

Zhong Li touched the back of his head, "Grandpa, maybe it's because you are in a good mood today. The water is still the same water. Today's medicinal materials are sold at a good price, right?"

"Yes, don't mention that I really sold dozens of copper coins today's medicinal grandfather," Lao Beisong was suddenly taken away from the topic just now and snorted happily at the small cloth bag at his feet. "Look, what delicious grandpa bought for you two."

Zhong Li bowed down and picked up the small cloth bag, which contained a large piece of fresh beef and a dark wine jar, and there was a smell of real rice wine.

Sently, a hot damp fog gushed out of his eyes, covering Zhong Li's eyes...
