The paintings on the walls of the courtyards in the village are all very similar. On the east side, they are almost all "cow-themed stories", and on the west side, they are almost all "dog-themed stories." There is not much difference at all.

He has been walking around the streets and looking at them every day for more than half a month, and he feels that the painting skills of the painter are pretty good, the color matching, and the creativity of the scenes are also very good, but they look the same and there is nothing new about them.

"How do you know?" Lan Ze suddenly became interested in this little guy and wanted to tease him, "Can you tell all those stories? What are they about?".

Xiao Tian'er glanced at Lan Ze a few times and then looked up at his elder brother and asked, "Who... is he? Can I answer his question?".

"Well, let's talk..." Lan Tianxing replied, "He was also my younger brother before. Just call him Senior Brother Ze!".

"Senior Brother Ze?" Xiao Tian'er laughed twice and said, "Those paintings are not telling stories, they are road signs. The overall layout here is like a maze. It is easy to get lost after entering, but look

Just follow those road signs!”.

"Road signs? Those...are they road signs?" Lan Ze looked at Lan Tianxing in surprise. Why had no one ever told him that those were road signs and taught him how to recognize them? Did he also pick them up?

"Well, that's right!" Lan Tianxing gave a direct affirmative answer.

"Uncle, you guys are so uninteresting! How come you have never taught me something that you all know?" Lan Ze asked anxiously, "You just look down on me like that?".

Lan Tianxing still smiled, "You can become talented only by self-study! Many things cannot be taught, you have to realize them by yourself...".

"Isn't that right, uncle? You guys are making excuses for not teaching..." Lan Ze retorted dissatisfied, "With my qualifications, I can't even teach, and you still want me to be self-taught, is it possible?".

"You can't even teach me, that's why no one teaches you!" Lan Tianxing patted Xiao Tian'er's shoulder and introduced, "This is Xiao Tian'er, Mr. Kang's disciple...".

"Hey, wait! Is he... related to Mr. Kang?" Before Lan Tianxing could finish speaking, Lan Ze came closer to Xiao Tian'er, continued to smell him vigorously a few times, and then looked at Xiao Tian'er in confusion.

Tian'er is his eldest brother.

Xiao Tianer's curiosity was aroused by Lan Ze's very strange expression, and she tried to ask, "Brother Ze, are you really a dog? What...are you smelling?".

Lan Ze looked back and forth between Xiao Tian'er and Lan Tianxing several times, and then replied, "You two are so similar. You both smell the same. I suspect you are...".

Xiao Tian'er is Lan Tianxing's biological son. It seems normal to him, so there's no need to bring this up in any special way, right?

Xiang Guang had just finished sweeping the street in front and wanted to come over to call Lan Ze to have lunch after get off work. When he saw Lan Tianxing coming back with a child, he took the initiative to come over and say hello, "The young master is back, the young master...".

"Eh? Senior Brother Xiang, what did you call him?" Lan Ze asked in surprise, "Him? This kid...how did he become a young master? Wasn't he, wasn't he picked up by my elder brother?".

"Master Ze, are you kidding me? Whose child did I pick up for free?" Lan Tianxing smiled happily and asked, "Brother Sheng and the others are back?".

"Not yet, it will be soon in terms of time!" Xiang Guang replied, but quickly added an auspicious word, "Congratulations, young master, for bringing the young master back!".

"Just call him Xiao Tian'er!" Lan Tianxing corrected with a smile, "He is just a nephew in front of you senior brothers, there is no need to call him Young Master...".

"Oh? Yes!" Xiang Guang corrected him obediently, "Master Xiao Tian'er, my subordinate Xiang Guang...".

Xiao Tian'er looked back at Lan Tianxing. Seeing that his elder brother had no special expression, he asked, "Hello, Uncle Xiang! My elder brother has mentioned you, and Xiao Tian'er wants to say hello to you!".

"Young master, you don't have to...eh? Who do you...call me big brother?" Xiang Guang was stunned. This title seemed to have a seniority difference. He thought he heard it wrong.

Xiao Tian'er stepped back a little and looked up at Lan Tianxing. He also felt that this name was inappropriate, but his elder brother allowed it.

"It's just a title, don't worry about it..." Lan Tianxing smiled, "When Brother Sheng comes back, I guess he will have to continue calling him 'Brother Sheng'...".

Lan Tianxing never called his biological father 'Dad', he always called him 'Brother Sheng'.

Regarding this, it seems that it runs in their family?

"Yes, my subordinate understands. Oh...Mr. Kang said that we are cooking what Master Xiaotian'er likes to eat. How about...let's go have dinner first?"

Lan Tianxing stopped and looked at the courtyard where the sound of the guqin was coming from. He originally wanted to take his children to meet the owner of the courtyard first, but he had already reached the door and the room was still quiet and there was no movement.

It seemed that the owner inside was too noisy and had no intention of inviting them in for a chat.

Xiao Tian'er saw the strange look in his 'big brother''s eyes and couldn't help but look towards the yard, 'Oh?' and asked, "It's foggy! Why is the fog blue?".

"Is there fog? Where is it?" Lan Ze also looked into the yard. He passed by it every day while sweeping the street. Why didn't he see fog, let alone hear that fog had colors?

Lan Ze didn't see anything, so he chased and asked, "Where is the fog? Could the blue color be air pollution? There is no chemical plant in our village, and even cars can't get in. It's so green and environmentally friendly."

Can it be contaminated? Is it a miasma? Can it be poisoned?"

In order to ensure that this paradise is not discovered and allows these people to stay away from the hustle and bustle and enjoy the good time here, there is no road leading to the outside world in the village, and the mountain roads are rugged and difficult to walk. The supplies are transported by Qingchuan with Qingchuan

Disciple Ziyi brings it in after midnight every day.

Absolute privacy and absolute environmental protection, there is no possibility of pollution. Even if there is fog, it should be the morning fog in the mountains and forests.

But it’s noon when the sun is shining brightly, so there’s no chance that there’s still morning fog that hasn’t dissipated?

This place is located on the slopes of mountains and forests, with high levels of negative oxygen ions and high air humidity. Before the sun rises, the entire village will be enveloped in morning mist, making it feel like a fairyland on earth.

Such a paradise that only exists in legends has always made Lanze very uncomfortable to live in, so he has been trying to find faults. If the air is really polluted, should they move as a whole?

"Lan Wu? Master, could it be from the legend..." Xiang Guang slightly tried to ask what he was referring to, but Lan Tianxing shook his head slightly to signal him not to ask any more questions.

Xiang Guang immediately understood and stopped talking. He just wanted to give Lan Tianxing a warning. Since the young master didn't show any surprise, it meant that he already knew about it. It would be useless to say more.

"Senior Brother Xiang, you also saw it, why can't I see anything?" Lan Ze asked again, "Uncle, what if it's miasma pollution? Should we move? I'll go back and pack my things...".

Xiang Guang listened to Lan Ze's nonsense and had no choice but to put his arm around his shoulder and remind him, "Master Ze, the canteen is open for dinner, so let's go eat first...".

"Is dinner ready? Yes, pack your things when you're full..." Lan Ze turned around and headed towards the cafeteria, but after taking two steps, he remembered that Xiao Tian'er was here, so he turned back and asked, "Little one, go ahead

Aren’t you going?”.

"Haha...haha..." Xiao Tianer laughed twice before answering. He would not easily believe that others would leave with strangers until 'his eldest brother' said something.

"Go, master is over there..." Lan Tianxing smiled. If this child appeared in front of everyone, it would definitely be a small sensation. At least the legendary 'Brother Sheng' would be very surprised.

"Let's go...oh, I can't walk, I don't know the way..." Xiang Guang usually gives Lanze directions and tells him which street to take and which alley to take, but now it's impossible for him to lead the way.

Xiao Tianer carefully identified the nearby courtyard wall for a while, pointed to the left direction and said, "Go here and turn left at the third intersection ahead. There should be signs there after that...".

"Ah? How do you know?" Lan Ze also looked at the story screen of "The Shepherd Boy Points to the Apricot Blossom Village" carefully for a while, and still asked in confusion, "What did you see? Where is the road sign?"

?Is this the direction the flute in the shepherd boy’s hand points to? But it’s to the right..."
