[The dining table is an ordinary wooden dining table, and the dishes on the dining table are also ordinary home-cooked dishes. However, Chef Luo Zhixue's cooking method is excellent, making ordinary home-cooked dishes extraordinary.].

Nie Yuan's mouth was full of oil. Although his appetite was not as terrifying as before, it was still quite good. He ate three big bowls before stopping..

Hard-working men eat a lot. It's normal. It's only because the husband and wife are hard-working people. Otherwise, they really can't afford Nie Yuan..

After dinner, the young couple started to get busy again. Luo Zhixue was in charge of the kitchen, while our Young Master Nie was in charge of everything outside the kitchen..

Three days passed in a row like this. During the day, he worked in the fields, and at night, Luo Zhixue had dinner in the thatched hut. Although the days were full, our Young Master Nie was worried every day. He kept recalling the words of that figure in his mind..

Outside is your world..

Nie Yuan kept thinking about the feelings he had felt in his heart for no reason these past few days and the lingering words in his mind..

On the fourth night, Nie Yuan was cleaning his room when Luo Zhixue suddenly hugged him from behind and whispered,"Husband, are you still troubled by that dream?".

”

"Yes.

Nie Yuan stopped what he was doing and turned around to embrace Luo Zhixue. He continued," These past few days, there have always been strange feelings in my heart. There's also that sentence that can't be removed. Zhixue, don't you have this feeling?"

Luo Zhixue pondered for a moment, shook her head and said: "No, but no matter what my husband says, does, or thinks, Zhixue believes it unconditionally.".

”

Luo Zhixue didn't know why she would say such a thing. She just felt that she should say this sentence..

Although Nie Yuan felt that this sentence was somewhat inexplicable, his heart was warm. He picked Luo Zhixue up and walked towards the inner room..

It's night, of course you have to sleep.

However, the two of them did not do anything shameful, but hugged each other and lay on the bed..

Luo Zhixue's breathing was even and steady. Obviously, she had fallen asleep. Our Young Master Nie, on the other hand, couldn't fall asleep no matter how hard he tried. He kept thinking about the meaning of that sentence..

Unfortunately, he was a mortal now. No matter how hard he racked his brains, he couldn't find any deeper meaning. He had no choice but to sleep..

Early in the morning, as usual, the couple packed up their things and went out to do farm work. It was spring now, and they could not do less farm work, otherwise they would starve in winter..

Ah![Laughs]

All of a sudden, a shrill scream rang out and spread throughout the entire small village..

The young couple who were packing naturally heard it and quickly went out to check..

Aunt Hua was the one who screamed. She was sitting on the ground, her body trembling uncontrollably. In front of her stood a few men riding tall horses. Each of them had a fierce look on their faces. Obviously, these bandits had entered the village..

The leader of the bandits was a young man. He looked young. Nie Yuan felt a sense of familiarity with this bandit leader after seeing him. It was as if he had seen this face somewhere before..

However, this is not the main thing. The most important thing is that the leader of the horse thieves has begun to instruct his followers to gather all the villagers..

The underlings who received the order did not delay at all. They jumped off their horses and shouted from door to door..

Nie Yuan's village was not big. There were only a dozen households in total. They had never seen such a scene before. No one dared to resist. In less than a moment, everyone was gathered at the stall at the entrance of the village..

Of course, our Young Master Nie is still here..

"Hand over all your treasures, or else don't blame me for being merciless with my broadsword..

The leader of the bandits said viciously, standing in front of him with the saber on his back..

"Our village is sparsely populated and is almost isolated from the outside world. Where can we find treasures? Please spare us..

”

：.

The speaker was Uncle Zhao, whom Nie Yuan mentioned. He stood at the front of the crowd, bowed, and said shakily..

"No treasure? Easy to deal with. I'm not that kind of person. Just hand over all the food in your village.".

The leader of the bandits laughed and said.

"Please don't, Grand Master…You've taken away all the food…How can our village survive?.

Uncle Zhao panicked and knelt on the ground begging for mercy. The villagers behind him also wailed. If there was no food, the people of this village would have no way to live..

" How can I live?" The bandit leader teased, then continued," Then I won't live.".

”

As soon as he finished speaking, the group of underlings behind him began to collect food from door to door. Although all the villagers were anxious, they could only watch and dare not speak out..

"Boss, there's a beautiful woman..

”

Suddenly, one of the bandits pointed at Luo Zhixue and said to the bandit leader,.

" Oh?" The bandit leader looked in the direction where the little bandit was pointing. His gaze fell on Luo Zhixue's face and he instantly smiled lewdly." I didn't expect that such a small place would have such a beautiful little symbol.".

”

Luo Zhixue noticed the bandit leader's gaze and subconsciously hid behind Nie Yuan. Nie Yuan also protected Luo Zhixue at the same time..

The bandit leader gave him a glance, and the young bandit instantly understood. He dashed to Nie Yuan and reached out with one hand, wanting to grab Luo Zhixue and present it to the bandit leader..

Seeing Nie Yuan reach out, Luo Zhixue became even more afraid and hid behind Nie Yuan even more..

Seeing that his woman was about to be bullied by others, how could he not be angry? He grabbed the hand of the pony thief with one hand..

Nie Yuan was a young man, so he naturally had a lot of strength. He grabbed the horse thief's hand and pulled it hard, then kicked it to make up for it..

The little horse thief was kicked ten feet away.

Seeing that his companion had been defeated, the other bandits no longer plundered food. They rushed out of the room and aimed their sabers at Nie Yuan. Each of them looked ferocious, wishing they could chop Nie Yuan up in the next moment..

"There's personality, I like it..

”

At this moment, the bandit leader spoke. One of them jumped off his horse and walked towards Nie Yuan." You have such a personality. Naturally, I will reward you well. You will be rewarded and chopped alive by me.".

”

As he spoke, the bandit leader revealed a ferocious look on his face. His followers also consciously made way for him..

Seeing the bandit leader walking over, Luo Zhixue's body trembled even more. Nie Yuan protected Luo Zhixue behind him and stared at the approaching bandit leader..

"Aren't you afraid of the government coming?.

Although Uncle Zhao was afraid in his heart, he was brave enough to say.

" The government? Hahahaha, I, Dongmen Chuixue, have lived for so many years, but I have never been afraid of the government. Moreover, if a small village like yours is slaughtered, the government may not even find out..

”

The bandit leader laughed ferociously and raised his saber to chop at Nie Yuan..

Ah![Laughing]

Luo Zhixue screamed and tightly closed her eyes. She grabbed Nie Yuan's sleeve tightly, not daring to look forward..

"Snow blowing at the east gate?"

Nie Yuan didn't look at the saber that fell, but silently recited the name that the bandit leader had given himself. It felt a little too familiar..
