Secret Treasure Tree
The warm light shone on his face through the white gauze curtain, and He Peng opened his eyes.
It's a clean room, with white walls, white doors, white beds, white furniture, white sheer curtains, and everything that catches your eye is white.
"You're awake. The door was pushed open, and a hoe of dirt bullets came in, trousers pulled high, and dirt on their homespun shoes.
"Bastard!" Lao Tzu ......" The anger before the coma has been held in his heart, He Peng sat up angrily and wanted to grab the earth bullet and beat him hatefully.
As soon as his feet touched the ground, he was soft, and the whole person fell to the ground.
"Oh, you see that you just woke up and you were so excited, did you fall?" The old man put down his hoe and took two steps to support He Peng.
"Get out!" He Peng turned his fist, and the old man avoided it with a light jump.
"What are you doing here?" asked the old man with a smile, looking harmless and innocent.
"You pretend again!" He Peng roared angrily, and suddenly looked around, the room was more than forty square meters, empty only a bed, a chair and a cabinet, and Su Jing and Xinyi were nowhere to be seen.
"What about Su Jing and Xinyi, what happened to them, old thing, I won't let you go if you dare to hurt them!" He Peng was even more angry, but his tone was softer, because the two women who were most important to him had obviously fallen into the hands of the other party.
"Hehe, you think too much, they are all very good, the reason why they do this is also a last resort, you must know that the farm gate has been hidden for thousands of years, how can the location of the portal be easily exposed to outsiders? The old man said with a smile.
What the old man said seemed to be reasonable, but He Peng didn't want to believe him anymore, because the old man had obviously been hiding and even deceiving them, for example, the old man's martial arts were obviously above him, but he deliberately showed weakness when he was in the car, and even endured the torture of chili water, he must be an old and cunning master.
"No malice, then take me to meet them!" He Peng said.
"Hehe, okay, they are going to do farm work, you take you slowly, I'll take you down to the field, just so that you can see the big jujube tree!" the old man said with a hearty smile on his face, as if he had never done anything to sneak attack.
Although He Peng didn't believe him, he also understood that when he arrived at the base camp of the farmer's family, it was no longer his turn to say what he said, and impulsiveness would only lead to a stiffening situation, since the old man said so, he showed that he didn't want to tear his face, and he might be able to find an opportunity to escape with Su Jing Xinyi by improving the jujube tree.
"Oh, I see, hehe, you scared me to death, I thought you were a bad guy, okay, you help me walk a few steps, let's go see the jujube tree." He Peng pretended to be relieved.
The old man didn't doubt him, and walked over to gently pick up He Peng, He Peng deliberately put the weight of his body on the old man, and found that the old man did not have the slightest sense of difficulty.
"Sure enough, he's a master. He Peng said secretly.
The old man helped He Peng to walk around the bed in the room a few times, He Peng's feet gradually regained consciousness, He Peng had studied Chinese medicine and knew that this was ischemic paralysis caused by the lack of blood circulation in the legs caused by lying down for a long time, resulting in this paralysis indicating that he had been asleep for at least three days!
"Old man, what kind of anesthetic did you give me, why did I fall asleep for so long?"
"Hehe, this is a pest toxin here, I'm surprised that you woke up so early, well, your physique is good!" the old man said appreciatively.
He Peng saw that he didn't say anything, so he didn't ask anymore, and after walking two more laps, he was able to move freely, and the old man led the two out of the house.
It is a valley, surrounded by mountains with treacherous peaks. But in the middle of the valley, there is a flat land, and you can see the end as far as you can see.
The valley is approximately a circle with a diameter of seven or eight thousand meters, and there are many trees planted densely around the edge of the valley, and in the middle of the valley there are about 20 or so three-story buildings, all of which are farmland at a glance.
The farmland is divided into many small plots, each planted with different crops, and most of the crops He Peng recognizes at random, sweet potatoes, sorghum, corn, rice......
Occasionally, one or two people could be seen working in the fields.
"Where are they? Where are the jujube trees?" He Peng asked.
The old man smiled and pointed in one direction, He Peng looked over carefully, and saw that in the middle of a golden wheat field two or three miles away, there seemed to be a tree-like thing standing there.
A few figures swayed under the tree, as if they were harvesting wheat.
Such a beautiful harvest scene! He Peng was a little uneasy, and always felt that something was wrong.
"Let's go, go and see, we can see clearly!" the old man smiled and led the way.
Walking into the field path and seeing the crops on both sides, He Peng became more and more surprised.
Why is the cabbage leaf a little blue? Why is the corn stalk short and thick? God, is it a cucumber or a golden hoop stick, how can it grow so long?
Seeing He Peng's doubts, Tu Dan said proudly: "Haha, I think it's different from the crops outside, let me tell you that these crops are improved by us for thousands of years, don't look strange, but they have not used any chemical fertilizers and pesticides, eating not only tastes good but also can improve people's physical functions. ”
He Peng didn't doubt what he said, but wondered why this farmer had lived in seclusion in the wilderness for thousands of years just to cultivate new crops.
"Lao Tu, you should have cultivated a lot of good varieties for more than a thousand years, right?"
"yes, yes, there are a lot of great varieties. ”
"Then why don't you promote planting?" He Peng asked strangely.
"Uh, this ......" The old man's face was embarrassed, and he said with a haha: "The planting technology is too high, ordinary people can't plant it, ahaha, don't talk about this, let's go, they are about to rest, just enough to say a few words." ”
I can already see the appearance of Su Jing and Xinyi, they are dressed as ordinary peasant women, with hats on their heads, but their beautiful faces and graceful postures cannot be completely concealed even by coarse clothes.
But what attracted He Peng the most was not the two of them, but the tree behind them.
The dark brown trunk is not thick, only the thickness of the bowl mouth, there is no skin on the trunk, it is bare like a monster that has been stripped of its fur, and there is not a single leaf on the dozen or so branches scattered on the whole tree, and a few dates are hanging on the tree, which looks quite weird.
"This tree?"
"Ah, that's it, the magical jujube tree, the top tree species we've cultivated for thousands of years. ”
"I mean, is it going to die? Why doesn't it have skin and leaves. ”
The old man smiled triumphantly: "Why do trees have to have skin and leaves?
He Peng was stunned for a while, trees rely on photosynthesis to synthesize energy, and leaves and bark are indispensable processing plants for photosynthesis! Isn't this basic common sense?
"Su Jing, Xinyi, look who has come to see you. Lao Tu said loudly.
Su Jing and Wang Xinyi straightened their waists and looked over at the same time, with no sadness or joy on their faces.
"Hello, He Peng. Wang Xinyi and Su Jing said in unison.
The voice is indifferent!
"Xiao Jing, Xinyi, what's wrong with you? Are you okay?" He Peng walked a few steps quickly, reached out to grab their arms, and the two of them took a step back at the same time.
He Peng's anger rushed straight to his head, Xiao Jing and Xinyi would never do this to themselves. He turned around abruptly and asked, "Old thing, what happened to you?"
The old man smiled and said, "They are fine, it's just that the poison of the pest in the body has not been completely removed, and it will take a few days to recover slowly, don't worry, it will be fine in a few days." ”
At this time, an old woman who had been bending down to cut the wheat straightened up and said coldly, "Okay, it's time for lunch, 57, 58 and follow me back to eat." ”
"Yes!" Su Jing and Wang Xinyi replied in unison, without looking at He Peng again, and followed the old woman directly.
"Come back, don't go!" He Peng chased after him, reached out and grabbed the arms of the two, and a dark shadow flashed in front of him.
Smack, smack! twice. He Peng's hands were easily opened with one hand by the old woman who suddenly turned back.
"Haven't you taught him the rules here, and I'll break his hand next time!" said the old woman in a cold voice, her tone unquestionable, as if she was training her son.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, he just woke up and didn't have time to say anything. The earth bomb apologized in a panic, and looked a little frightened.
He Peng didn't do it, what kind of bullshit rules, Lao Tzu didn't eat that, and smashed the old woman's door with a punch.
Syllable!
He Peng froze, a finger poked on his heart, and his whole body was numb and couldn't move!
He Peng is proficient in traditional Chinese medicine and knows the wonderful use of acupuncture points, but he can't completely control people with just one finger like this, at most he can interrupt other people's movements.
He Peng's body couldn't move, and he watched the old woman and Su Jing Xinyi leave, and the two daughters didn't look back at her from beginning to end.
He Peng's heart is bleeding, he hurt them!
The earth bomb squatted on the ground, took out a cigarette and lit it silently took two puffs, sighed with the smoke he spit out, and then said: "Alas, why bother, I told you, I won't harm you, as long as you obediently improve the jujube tree into perennial fruit according to the agreement, I promise to send you away safely." ”
He Peng suddenly smiled and said: "Old man, you said it earlier, let me go, I promise not to be impulsive." ”
The bomb took two more deep puffs of smoke, and the column of smoke erupted from its nostrils and rolled to the ground.
"I know you don't believe me, and you want to trick me into helping you solve the acupoint, but I really don't have that ability, and the acupoint will be solved naturally after you set up a few hours. During this time, I just listened to me nag you about the rules of the farmhouse. ”
The old man looked up at He Peng, and saw that He Peng's eyebrows were full of smiles, and he couldn't help but shake his head even more: "It seems that you still don't believe me, in fact, I'm really good for you, I told you about the farmer's implementation of the farming war policy, in the farmer's house is not a farmer is a sergeant, and it is still the case, the old man I am a farmer, concentrating on overcoming agricultural technology problems, and most of the women in the valley are sergeants, their kung fu is not comparable to you and me, you can't even beat me, don't hold other delusions." ”
He Peng smiled mildly and said, "What do you say, how can I not believe you? I'm just worried that they are in danger, of course I will do my best to what I promised you, you tell me the truth, what happened to them? Don't let me accidentally kill your treasure tree because I am worried."
