The last task



The last task

Lin Yuan raised her head, rubbed her temples to relieve the headache, and calmed down: "It's okay if you don't remember. Taking good care of your body is the most important thing."

"Oh." Yuan Xuanlang closed his eyes.

Lin Yuan received a hint from Doctor Liu's eyes and went out of the house to the medicine garden.

"You can see that this situation depends on fate." Doctor Liu pinched a red flower and sniffed it.

Lin Yuan smiled faintly: "I understand."

Doctor Liu seemed surprised: "Aren't you sad?"

"Well, you'll get used to it. Living a simple and happy life is also a kind of happiness."

Doctor Liu nodded and sighed: "I don't understand you..."

Lin Yuan murmured, "I don't understand myself either."

After a few days, Yuan Xuanlang was able to get out of bed and didn't want to lie in bed for a moment.

Lin Yuan propped up her chin with her hand and looked at Yuan Xuanlang wandering around the courtyard with boredom. "Hurry up and drink your medicine, brother."

Yuan Xuanlang sat by the flower bed with his back to her, "No, is that medicine? It's clearly poison! A tormenting poison!"

Lin Yuan picked up the bowl, walked over to him, squatted down, and rubbed his head: "Be good, the candy won't be bitter after you take the medicine."

Yuan Xuanlang remained unmoved.

It seems like being soft is no longer enough. Humph, I don’t have that much patience to play with you!

Lin Yuan knelt directly on his legs, preventing him from escaping.

"You...what are you doing?" Yuan Xuanlang's eyes widened, and he felt very uncomfortable being clamped.

Lin Yuan grabbed his collar, her eyes fierce as she approached him: "Do you want me to feed you the medicine or force you to drink it by pinching you, or do you want me to drink it yourself?"

Yuan Xuanlang pinched her face as if surrendering: "Okay, okay, brother, drink it yourself."

Hey, my sister is good in every way, except that she is a little moody.

Lin Yuan smiled with pursed lips, and actually wanted to throw herself into his arms and roll around, just like a big orange climbing up her knees, climbing onto her neck, and rubbing her furry head against her face. That would be really enjoyable!

Yuan Xuanlang took the bowl of medicine but didn't drink it. He just looked at Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan frowned slightly: "Drink it quickly, do you regret it?"

"Xiao Yuan, are you sure you want to sit here and watch brother drink his medicine?"

Lin Yuan pretended to be calm and stood up. "Why are you looking at me? Is there something on my face?"

Yuan Xuanlang lowered his head and swallowed the medicine in one gulp, wondering, has he always gotten along with his younger sister like this before?

Just as the bitter taste of medicine was bombarding his mouth, a piece of candy was stuffed into his mouth, and it tasted so sweet.

Lin Yuan curled her lips: "Only you would like such sweet candy."

Yuan Xuanlang: "Everyone has their own preferences."

Yuan Xuanlang's recovery was faster than Dr. Liu had expected, so he gave him some herbs and sent them on their way. Yuan and Lin said goodbye to Dr. Liu and went to rest in an empty wooden house in the village.

On the first day in Stone Village, they were treated to a banquet by the enthusiastic neighbors.

The two of them sat on the yellow mud kang, holding a porcelain bowl with several broken corners, looking at the yellow cornmeal soup with a layer of gray-like tofu dregs floating in the soup, and tasted the unknown green leaves with a bland taste.

What’s rare is that there is also a bowl of black and white broth.

"Drink it quickly. This broth contains many medicinal herbs such as silver lotus, tangerine peel, and Notopterygium wilfordii. It is very good for your body!" Aunt Wang urged enthusiastically.

Lin Yuan drank a mouthful of the salty soup and felt as if her soul had left her body. She wished she didn't have a tongue.

Yu Guangzhong saw that Yuan Xuanlang ate the food and drank the soup with almost no change in expression, and his movements were smooth and natural. Lin Yuan silently gave him a thumbs up and continued to eat.

Aunt Wang was very satisfied, and the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes looked like flowers when she smiled.

"We don't have any delicacies from land and sea. We grow and raise them all ourselves. If you two brothers and sisters need any help, just come to me, Aunt Wang." Aunt Wang fully demonstrated the hospitality of Shitou Village.

"Aunt Wang's cooking skills are excellent. Thank you for your hospitality. I hope you will bear with me as your neighbor in the future..."

"Sure, sure!"

"Wow--" The baby's crying sound was heard, and Aunt Wang hurried to the cradle to comfort it.

"Aunt Wang, you have so many children in your family?" Lin Yuan asked casually.

Aunt Wang's family has Xiao Cui and her two younger brothers, as well as a baby. For Lin Yuan, this is already a lot.

"Oh, it's so troublesome to have so many children..." Although Aunt Wang smiled bitterly, you could see the happiness in her heart.

Since then, the two of them have been farming and growing vegetables, and have been living a happy farming life.

One summer morning the following year, Lin Yuan was cutting vegetables and cooking when she felt a cool breeze by her ears. She turned around and saw Yuan Xuanlang had picked a few blue morning glories and put them in her hair next to her ears.

The morning glory was still covered with dew from the dawn.

"Xiao Yuan is so pretty!"

Yuan Xuanlang was wearing an indigo-blue hemp cloth daily suit, his black hair was tied up with a hairband, his eyes were slightly raised, his nose was high, and the corners of his mouth were raised, he really looked like a rich young man who had fallen into poverty.

Lin Yuan raised her eyebrows slightly. He was a head taller than her, so he bent down slightly and spoke to her with his head down.

This guy committed a foul!

Lin Yuan wanted to break this ambiguous deception. Her current identity was his sister, so she deliberately acted pretentiously: "Oh! How can you pick flowers? Flowers are so beautiful. You should learn to appreciate their beauty quietly instead of ending their lives just for the sake of possession. Listen, they are crying..."

Yuan Xuanlang chuckled: "Okay, okay, brother, I won't pick them next time. Huahua is so pitiful."

Lin Yuan fried some vegetarian dishes and added a bowl of sweet soup.

Yuan Xuanlang took a sip of the sweet soup and his eyes lit up: "Wow! What kind of soup is this? It's so delicious!"

"Rice wine dumpling soup."

Lin Yuan was not very interested in the soup, she just wanted to fulfill her promise of dessert once every two weeks. Now thinking about it, she was really stupid at that time why did she agree to him.

It was Grain in Ear season, and Yuan and Lin went to the village fields to help harvest wheat.

The two men wore straw hats, carried farm tools, and set foot on the dirt path.

"Ding Dong - the last task, integrate into the lives of local villagers and live in harmony for a few months." The system came again.

Lin Yuan paused: "The last mission? Why?"

System: "Yes, this is the last mission. There is no reward because it is canceled out by the vine cart. Due to the mission issued by my superiors, I will be offline. I am very grateful for the time I spent with the host..."

Lin Yuan stared at the ground and hurled a cold question at the system, "Are you abandoning me too? You brought me to this strange world."

"Xiao Yuan, hurry up." Yuan Xuanlang turned around and called her.

Lin Yuan lowered her head, pretending to be very hot, and continued walking while complaining, "This sun is too hot."

System: "No, no, the system will send the host back to the original world in four years. I'm very sorry this time, because of the important task from the superiors.

Really, the host has done a great job, and I have learned a lot from the host, such as 'If violence can't solve the problem, it means you are not violent enough', 'The villain dies because he talks too much', and 'It is better to teach justice yourself than to rely on the government'.

The host is really great! The host has a promising future. There may be ups and downs in the future, but suffering is the prelude to happiness. "

Lin Yuan once again lamented why there was so much sand in his eyes.

Lin Yuan: "Well, thank you too. You are a good system, especially good at learning and have a high level of comprehension. You will become the most popular system in the Shenzhou Travel Bureau."

System: "Goodbye, my friend! (*^ω^*)"

Lin Yuan: "Goodbye (‵▽′)/, three-no friend."

Lin Yuan looked up at the blue sky. There were a few thin clouds floating in the air. Occasionally, a breeze blew, bringing with it the coolness of dew, wetting her clothes.

Lin Yuan felt a hand wipe away the tears from her face. Yuan Xuanlang asked with pity, "Why are you crying?"

"I made a friend for less than half a day, and it was gone."

"Where did she go?"

"Another world."

"Oh, my condolences." He patted Lin Yuan's shoulder to comfort her.

Yuan Xuanlang thought that her friend might have passed away.

Lin Yuan couldn't help laughing: "Well, I must express my condolences. It's okay, let's go."

They helped the villagers in the wheat fields to harvest wheat until noon, when the children from their families brought them water and dry food.

"Brother Yuan! Sister Xiaoyuan, I made some mung bean soup. Let's have some."

A thin girl came running over, about sixteen years old, with delicate features and slightly yellow skin, like wheat after being exposed to the sun, and her whole body was filled with the simplicity and innocence of a farm girl.

She is Xiao Cui from Aunt Wang's family.

"Thank you!" Yuan Xuanlang took the bowl of soup and handed one to Lin Yuan: "Yuan Xiaoyuan, have some mung bean soup to cool down."

"Thank you, brother." Lin Yuan still felt a little guilty when he called her that.

In the afternoon, Yuan Xuanlang leaned against a tree beside the stream and ate grapes sent by the villagers. Lin Yuan was chatting with Xiao Cui. After a while, she caught a glimpse of him eating grapes out of the corner of her eye. His slender fingers and the round grapes were particularly tempting.

Finally, she couldn't help herself. She shook off the dust on her clothes, said goodbye to Xiao Cui, ran to Yuan Xuanlang, squatted down, and smiled, "Grape!"

Yuan Xuanlang smiled, peeled a grape for her and put it into her mouth.

The sweet and sour juice spread in her mouth, she squinted her eyes happily, and then lay on his legs, enjoying the feeding service.

Ah! It’s really not fun to have a brother!
