Chapter 609: This Night

A quiet but vibrant forest.

Built in the depths of the forest, the house is covered with evergreen vines in all seasons on the brick wall.

A garden where flowers and plants are allowed to grow freely.

Yellowed stone tables and chairs under the pergola.

Two elderly people.

Luo stood in front of the wooden fence gate in the courtyard, looking at the house that had not changed in the past few years, and said with emotion: "It's still the same."

Ma Qi couldn't understand Luo's emotion, but she looked at the surrounding environment, and she had a little liking for it.

In seven days, her injuries had recovered, but luckily she avoided it at that time, and did not take the whole move of "Shocking Fist" head-on, otherwise she might be seriously injured or even die.

clatter.

The sound of slightly hurried footsteps came from the end of the winding path.

A man with pale beard and hair in a black suit walked over quickly, but it was Lin Nie's housekeeper, Zhou Hu.

He came to the gate of the fence, opened the wooden door, and said respectfully: "You are here."

He saw Ma Qi who came with Luo, but he didn't ask much, the reason was very simple, because this was the person Luo brought over.

Luo Wenyan said helplessly, "Don't use honorifics."

Zhou Hu smiled when he heard this, and didn't make a statement, but turned sideways, making a gesture of inviting him in.

Luo shook his head slightly, and led Ma Qi up the winding path, towards the main entrance of the house.

Open the main door with ease, and enter the main hall on the first floor with a strong sense of simplicity.

Luo looked back at Rihu, and asked, "Where's Lin Nie?"

Day Tiger replied, "It's on the balcony on the second floor."

Luo nodded, and led March up the mottled stairs, which made a creaking sound.

The balcony on the second floor, where Lin Nie often stayed, happened to be on the other side of the main entrance of the house.

Soon, the two came to the second floor, passed a corridor, and saw Lin Nie sitting on a chair with his back to them.

"sit."

Hearing the sound, Lin Nie slowly opened his eyes, stretched out his hand and gestured towards the prepared chair beside him, and on the round table in the middle, two cups of fragrant hot tea had already been poured.

Luo and March walked over and sat on the chairs.

Ma Qi knew Lin Nie, so he would not be restrained.

Lin Nie looked at Luo's changes quietly, and had a lot of things to say and ask in his heart. After a while, he just said, "It's good to be back."

Luo smiled slightly, took out a long stone box from the black cat space, and gently placed it on the round table.

"this is?"

Lin Nie turned the chair slightly and looked at the stone box.

"Nitolomi." Luo said the name of the item in the stone box.

Lin Nie's eyes suddenly narrowed. She was aware of the five known hopes, and knew that Nitolomi was the long-lived food that countless people dreamed of.

"Although there is only half of the plant, the effect is still there." Luo opened the box.

Lin Nie looked at the golden rice in the stone box, but he didn't expect that the longevity food that grows in the swamp area would actually be golden rice.

She raised her eyes to look at Luo, then reached out and pushed the stone box forward, and said lightly, "I don't need it."

"No, you need it." Luo pushed back the stone box with a firm attitude.

Ma Qi didn't know what Nitolomi was, and it was strange to see the two pushing each other.

Seeing that Lin Nie had no intention of accepting it at all, Luo looked serious and persuaded: "I will go to the Dark Continent again. I don't know when I will leave, and I don't know when I will come back."

"If you still have hope in your heart, just accept it honestly."

Lin Nie couldn't help being silent when she heard the words. She knew what Luo meant, and she was just worried that after returning for the second time, she would die of old age at home because her life limit had expired.

After a while, she no longer shirked, and said, "You are generous with what so many people dream of."

Luo Feng smiled lightly and said, "If necessary, I will go get it again."

A light word that falls in the ears of an insider is not ordinary arrogance at all.

Lin Nie stared at Luo in a daze, feeling a sense of loss for some reason.

If I had been firmer at the beginning, how could I still have hope when I am getting old, and even rely on the younger generation.

The time that has passed is irretrievable no matter what.

Feeling Lin Nie's loss, Luo silently closed the stone box, then took out the ingredients from the black cat space, put them on the round table, and immediately pushed the teacup aside.

A bright red fruit in the shape of a bud.

A piece of translucent bamboo shoot mushroom with snow patterns.

A piece of meat that is half emerald green and half white, resembling a mahjong.

A basket of rock-covered, basketball-sized stone clams.

In addition to these, there are a few fire pattern eggs.

This is what Luo selected from many ingredients, not the best, but it is the ingredient that can retain the flavor 100% independently.

Before returning, he made a special trip to the center of the underground world to hunt a turkey, but after being forced back by the magma waves many times, he never found any trace of the turkey, so he had no choice but to give up .

After taking out these ingredients, Luo smiled and said, "It's all ingredients brought back from the Dark Continent."

Lin Nie trembled slightly as he looked at these distinctive ingredients.

When Luo pushed the longevity food in front of her, she didn't react, but when Luo put the ingredients brought back from the Dark Continent in front of her, she lost her composure.

Countless days and nights, even in dreams, I want to cook and taste the ingredients of the Dark Continent myself.

She got up from the chair, stretched out her trembling old hands, and gently stroked the ingredients.

Before I knew it, I was crying.

Looking at Lin Nie who lost his composure, Luo could understand the feeling of making up for the regret.

Whether it is Nitolomi, or specially selected ingredients brought back, it is a way of giving back.

He has always been like this, not to mention that the kindness of a drop of water should be repaid by the spring, and he has never been stingy towards the people he agrees with.

After Lin Nie calmed down his excitement, he didn't directly cook the ingredients, but wanted to be fully prepared before cooking, showing a high degree of attention.

You know, since Lin Nie got old, few outsiders have tasted her craft again, only old friends Nitro and Maha have the chance to taste it once a year or two.

Cooking the ingredients of the Dark Continent is probably one of the most important moments in Lin Nie's life. Before he is ready, he will invite old friends over.

Like Luo, she believes that the essence of food lies in sharing.

That day, Luo and Ma Qi stayed overnight. I don't know if Lin Nie did it on purpose. He said that the extra rooms were used for storing sundries, so there was only one available room.

Therefore, Luo and March could only live in one side and sleep in one bed.

One feature of Lin Nie's house is that the room is very large, and the bed is also very large.

The night was dark, and when I listened carefully, I could hear the low chirping of insects outside.

On the big bed, Luo is lying on the left, and Madge is lying on the right.

"Did you go to the Dark Continent in the past few years?" March listened in during the day, only to realize that Luo might have gone to a place called the Dark Continent.

"Ok."

Luo rested his arms on the back of his head and looked at the ceiling. He could feel the gaze from the side. He couldn't help but recall the days when he was first taken back by Madge.

Ma Qi looked at Luo's side face and remained silent.

At this time, Luo Hu turned sideways, met Ma Qi's gaze, and said with a teasing smile: "Ma Qi, I have something to confess to you, although I still refuse to admit it until now."

"What?" March also turned sideways, wondering.

"I admit that I did accidentally take off your clothes that night." Luo said seriously.

In the quilt, Ma Qi kicked suddenly, but was held by Luo with his hand.

"Let go." Madge's heartbeat accelerated involuntarily.

This night, they might, maybe, maybe, grow up?
