Driving alone for such a long time is risky.

Therefore, Jane Yi will drive the first half of the journey, and Lan Jin will drive after entering the sparsely populated road section in the second half.

At three o'clock in the morning, the car entered the mountain road.

"When I was young, the roads here were rotten. When it rained, I couldn't walk at all. Now it's much better." The road has been widened and paved with asphalt, making it much smoother.

Jane Yi rolled down the car window, and the cool breeze blew into the car with the fragrance of grass and trees.

The body temperature is indeed lower than that of Ninghai.

"Yi Yi, look up at the sky." Lan Jin said.

Jane Yi looked up and saw that the black sky was illuminated by countless stars.

This is a view that cannot be seen in Ninghai.

"It's so beautiful." Jane Yi sighed softly.

It was five o'clock in the morning when we arrived at White Deer Village.

At the entrance of the village stands a white stone statue, which is a white deer.

The headlight hit Bai Lu's body, and Jane Yi whispered, "This stone statue is so new."

Standing at the entrance of the village, it is inevitable to experience wind and sun, but this stone statue is as brand new as a newly built tombstone.

The white deer's eyes were downcast, docile and compassionate.Its eyeballs were dyed a diamond blue color, and only this part of the entire stone statue was colored.

The headlight hit the white deer, and Jane Yi saw its eyes blink.

Jane Yi rubbed her eyes and looked over again.

Bailu's eyeballs didn't move.

The scene just now seemed to be just her illusion, she was probably tired after driving for so long.

Jane Yi comforted herself.

The vehicle stopped at the entrance of the village for only a few minutes, and Lan Jin continued to drive towards the village.

Almost no one's lights were on, and the village was silent except for the occasional barking of dogs.

"Is that white deer stone statue new?" Lan Jin asked.

Jane Yi in the passenger seat replied: "Well, it was refurbished by the villagers?"

"No, since I can remember, the stone statue has been standing there, it has always been brand new, and no villagers have ever renovated it. Although the children in the village are naughty, they hold the stone statue in awe.Heart, never dare to scribble on it."

"Well," Jane Yi leaned on the seat and said firmly, "I must go to the White Deer Temple to worship."

Lan Jin smiled: "Okay."

The car crossed a long street and finally stopped in front of a pair of painted red double iron gates.

"Is this right here?" Jane Yi stuck her head out of the window to look.

There are faded Spring Festival couplets pasted on the lintel and door frame, it can be seen that no one has lived inside for a long time.

"It's here." Lan Jin looked at Jane Yi.

Jane Yi unbuckled her seat belt knowingly, and said, "I'll go and open the door."

Although he hadn't come back for a long time, Lan Jin kept the key of the gate very well.

The key was submerged in the lock, and the twist was smoother than expected, and Jane Yi easily opened the door.

With a squeak, there is a stale smell on the face, and the vision is wide.

The front yard is spacious and clean, with plenty of room for a car.

Jane Yi stepped aside and said to Lan Jin in the car, "Drive in."

When the car drove into the front yard, Jane Yi closed the creaking gate and locked it.

Lan Jin got out of the car, touched the light switch at the door of the house, and pressed it, but the light didn't turn on.

Lan Jin murmured: "The power is cut off."

"No one has lived there for so long, so it's normal to have a power outage. I'll go to the service center in the village tomorrow to go through the power-on procedure." Jane Yi took advantage of the light of the stars, looked around, and saw two water pipes side by side on the east side of the yard., below is a long sink.

She walked over and turned on the faucet on the left, and the sound of rushing water came out.

Jane Yi excitedly said: "Ah Jin! The water is not stopped!"

Lan Jin trotted over: "Really!"

Jane Yi turns off the tap on the left and unscrews the tap on the right.

The faucet on the right roared, and there was no water.

"Strange, why can't this water come out? Is it broken?" Jane Yi wondered.

"It's not broken." Lan Jin explained, "The faucet on the left comes out with cold water, and the faucet on the right comes out with hot water. Now that there is no electricity, the water heater is useless, so naturally it won't be able to release hot water."

After speaking, he turned off the tap.

The growl stopped.

Anyway, at least don't have to worry about washing tonight.

Their small car couldn't carry much luggage, so most of them were handed over to the moving company for delivery. Tonight they only brought a little food and a bedding.

"I was going to make a delicious supper, but it will be difficult without electricity." Lan Jin's tone could not hide his disappointment, but fortunately he brought an induction cooker here.

After a pause, Lan Jin suddenly remembered: "I'll go and see if there are any broken firewood in the kitchen. If it doesn't work, I'll start cooking. Yi Yi, let me tell you, the rice steamed in a big iron pot is different from the rice cooked in a rice cooker.", it should be more fragrant."

Seeing that he was about to leave, Jane Yi hurriedly held his hand and stopped him, "Didn't we bring dry noodles and a warm water bottle? Just make some noodles to deal with it, and make something delicious after we settle down tomorrow."

Lan Jin hesitated: "But..."

"After driving for such a long time, I don't want you to be too tired." Jane Yi gently pinched his meat pad.

Only then did Lan Jin give up happily.

The two took out a large green warm water bottle, two boxes of dry noodles and two braised eggs from the trunk of the car.

He also found a small black square table from the living room, and put the noodle box on the table.

"I used to do my homework on this small square table when I was in elementary school." Lan Jin tore open the package of noodles.

Jane Yi thought of the little Lan Jin lying on the small square table, counting and solving problems with his fingers, and his eyes softened with imagination: "It's so cute."

Pour the vegetable bag into the instant noodle bowl, pour boiling water and cover it.

Jane Yi was helping to light the flashlight, making it easier for Lan Jin to operate.

"Yi Yi, actually," Lan Jin scratched her face, "It doesn't matter if you don't need to turn on the light for me, my night vision is very good now."

"Because it became a cat?"

Lan Jin nodded: "The dynamic vision is also excellent."

"I know," Jane Yi smiled, "I just want to stay by your side, and I can't help but want to do something when I see you busy."

"This... this way." There is an advantage to being a cat, Jane Yi can't see him blushing.

While the dough was soaking, Jane Yi left the front yard, found a bench in the living room, wiped it clean and carried it to the yard.

Two noodle bowls were placed on the small square table, but Lan Jin was gone.

Jane Yi's heart tightened, she almost lost the bench in her hand, she called out with a trembling voice, "Ah Jin?"

"Yi Yi, I'm in the car!" Lan Jin jumped out of the trunk, holding a silver thermos cup in his hand.

"So you're in the car." Jane Yi's heart fell to the ground, and she put down the bench.

"I'm going to get sour plum soup." Lan Jin shook the cup in his hand, and the fluffy cat showed a silly smile: "We can drink this while eating noodles."

After the noodles are soaked, Lan Jin pours the water into the sink under the faucet, pours the sauce into the noodle bowl, mixes it, and finally adds the marinated eggs.

The two sat side by side on the bench eating noodles, and the sound of noodles sucking kept ringing.

The sour plum soup in the thermos was cold to relieve the heat, and Jane Yi drank several sips in a row.

After eating the noodles, was full and tired, and sleepiness began to surge.

Jane Yi rested her head on Lan Jin's shoulder, her eyelids were heavy.

"Yi Yi, are you sleepy?"

"A little bit." Jane Yi yawned.

"Then you go to wash up first, I can go to sleep after I spread out the bedding." Lan Jin said.

"Let's make the bed together, and the speed should be faster." Jane Yi raised her head and tried to cheer up, "Which room do we sleep in?"

"My former bedroom."

After unloading the quilt from the car, Lan Jin led Jane Yi to the westernmost room.

Upon entering the room, Jane Yi joked, "You sleep in such a big bed alone?"

"This bed used to be my mother's dowry," Lan Jin scratched her head, "But after my parents got divorced and started their own families, they were left idle. I was growing up at that time, and the original small bed was not enough to sleep, so grandma let me sleep here.Queen bed."

Jane Yi knew what kind of people Lan Jin's parents were, and didn't want to touch his sad things, so she quickly changed the subject: "Let's make the bed quickly, I'm so sleepy."

Lan Jin: "Okay."

Put on the mattress, spread the sheets, and put away the pillows.

This dusty bedroom has become somewhat human.

Jane Yi and Lan Jin came to the front yard to wash up.

Lan Jin carefully cleaned the fur on his face and around his eyes with a towel soaked in water, and cleaned his four paws carefully.

Of course, teeth should be brushed white and clean.

Jane Yi thinks she can watch the big cat wash her face for a day.

After washing, Lan Jin stretched out her paws to check carefully, and couldn't help sticking out her tongue to lick it.

Then he was taken aback, and quickly turned to look at Jane Yi.

"I...I'm not..." Lan Jin hurriedly put her paws behind her back, "Accidentally..."

Jane Yi patted him on the shoulder: "It's understandable, it's the nature of cats."

Honestly, it's kinda cute.

Back in the bedroom, the two of them lay down on the bed, sighing comfortably at the same time.

When Jane Yi touched the pillow, sleepiness flooded her.

In a trance, she noticed that Lan Jin held her hand, and said softly: "Yi Yi, your hand is a little cold."

"I just washed my hands in cold water."

"The feet are also cold."

"I also washed my feet with cold water."

"The hot water will be available when the electricity is turned on tomorrow." Lan Jin put Jane Yi's hands on her furry chest, and clamped her cold feet with her legs.

Only then did he reassure himself: "This way it won't be cold."

Even though the temperature during the day is the same as in midsummer, the nights in White Deer Village are cold, and the house has been unoccupied for a long time, giving it a gloomy feeling.

Ninghai can't sleep without air conditioning at night, but in White Deer Village, you need a thicker quilt.

Being hugged tightly by Lan Jin, Jane Yi felt as if she was wrapped in a thick fur blanket, which was very warm.

Sleeping from early morning to noon, Jane Yi first contacted the moving company and learned that it would take five or six in the afternoon to arrive at White Deer Village, so she decided to go to the service center to solve the power supply problem.

She put on light sportswear and took a parasol to go out.

"Don't open the door to anyone but me, no one." Jane Yi warned before leaving.

"I'm not a child, don't worry." Lan Jin, wearing an improved enlarged mask and dustproof clothing, was struggling to clean the room.

There is no rubbish in the house, but there is a lot of dust.

In addition, the current weather is relatively dry, and when the broom is lifted, the fine dust chokes people to cough.

Last night came in the middle of the night, and the whole village fell into a dark silence.

When opened the door this morning, the outside became much more lively and the colors became brighter.

After walking a few steps forward, Jane Yi's eyes fell on the neighbor's door.

There are two stone piers at the door of this family, and there are two small stone lions on the stone piers.

Its appearance was not as mighty as the stone lions she had seen before, but rather naive.

Before Jane Yi could look away from the stone lion, the neighbor's door opened.

There was a faint sound of chanting from inside the door.

Jane Yi couldn't help being a little curious, what is this doing?

Before her curious gaze could penetrate further, a young man with red lips and white teeth walked out of the door, who seemed to be in his early ten years old.

His expression was cold and haughty, and he froze when he saw Jane Yi's fresh face.

Jane Yi took the initiative to greet him: "Hi, I'm a new move next door."

"Next door?" The boy raised his delicate eyebrows, and looked sideways in the direction of Jane Yi's house.

Then he clicked his tongue and turned away without saying a word.

Jane Yi: ...?
