The kind-hearted stall owner saw Gongliang and Yuanpian arguing, and hurriedly said, "Don't make noise, don't make noise, come and taste the fruit gourd I planted myself." ”

The old man took out a few palm-sized fruit gourds with jade-like skin and a faint fruity fragrance from the cloth bag next to him, gave one to Mi Gu, and then handed one to Gongliang.

It was difficult to resist the enthusiasm, Gongliang had to let go of the hand that kneaded the round panda face and took it.

Yuan Rolling saw that the opportunity had come, and screamed and threw himself towards Gongliang.

The old man hurriedly persuaded: "Don't make noise, don't make noise, come, you can also taste the fruit." ”

Yuan Rolling heard the old man's words, looked at Gongliang, and found that he and Mi Gu had fruit gourds in their hands, and then saw the verdant fruit in the old man's hands, and felt that he could let go of Gongliang first and eat a fruit. So, it stepped forward to take the gourd, sat up, and ate it.

The fruit gourd has a crisp taste, sweetness, and a light fragrance, which is indeed delicious.

Gongliang glanced at it, this fool actually eats what others give him casually, and he is not afraid of being poisoned.

After a while, after finding that there was nothing abnormal after eating it, he also ate it.

The shape of the gourd is a bit like a gourd with a small head and a big belly, and the taste is as crisp and sweet as Xinjiang Korla fragrant pear, with a faint fruity aroma, which is really good.

"Hmm..."

Gongliang suddenly felt that something was wrong, and couldn't help but eat a few more bites. Suddenly, I found that there was a faint aura in the flesh of the fruit gourd, but it was too faint to be regarded as a spirit fruit, and at best it was only the best of ordinary fruits. However, if this fruit is eaten for a long time, it can also strengthen the body and live a long life.

Of course, these are relatively for the average person.

After eating other people's fruits, it is always difficult not to buy a little thing from others, which is the so-called "taking people short".

So, Gongliang asked the old man, "Old man, how do you sell this big gourd?"

"See which one you want?"

The old man pointed to one of the five-meter-long gourds and said: "A wild gourd like that is more expensive, but it can ensure that you can grow anything casually within ten years without losing your spirituality; ”

Gongliang heard it strangely and asked, "Old man, I don't understand what you say, what kind of wild gourd, isn't this thing able to grow things for a long time? Why can it only be used for three years and ten years?" ”

"Hehehehe, desolate, you are not me and the people of God, I don't know. ”

The old man smiled and said, "The wild gourd is a big gourd that is naturally raised in the mountains. This kind of gourd is made by absorbing the aura of heaven and earth, so the spirituality is extraordinary, any kind, anything can ensure that the spirituality is not lost within ten years. Of course, there are some things that can last longer, and that is not something that can be obtained by old decay. ”

A stall owner next to him heard the old man's words and said, "Old Shang, I heard that the Kitano family found a big gourd in the mountains a while ago, which was very big, and they specially went to the monarch to borrow a batch of armor soldiers to drag the big gourd out of the mountain. It is said that there are hundreds of barrels of spiritual liquid in it alone, and I don't know if it's true or not?"

"It doesn't matter if he's real or not, even if it's true, he's not even a few buckets of us. I'll wait, I'll honestly do business here, and I'll go into the mountains to look for it when I'm free. If I can find a wild gourd and open a bucket of spiritual liquid, I'll snicker. ”

"Elder Shang, you still dare to think about it. If I find it, not a bucket, but a small pot, I will be content. ”

Gongliang heard the conversation between the two, and was curious, and asked, "Old man, what are the spiritual liquids you are talking about, is it very precious?"

Shang Lao said: "That spiritual liquid is the essence of the wild gourd absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and storing it in the abdomen. For ordinary fruit species, a drop of this essence can grow into a big tree, another drop can blossom and bear fruit, and another drop will ripen and fall into a melon. Even if it is a spiritual object, it only takes about ten drops to rip it to maturity. Do you think such things are not precious?"

"It's really precious. ”

Gongliang nodded, and then said, "Since there are wild gourds in the mountains, do I still need to buy things here? ”

"Hahahaha..."

The old merchant and the stall owner next to him heard this and laughed.

This laughter made Gongliang stunned, and he couldn't help asking, "Old man, is there something wrong with what I said?"

"Desolate people, don't think that this is the eastern land, it is not as sinister as your great wilderness jungle.

If you look at the majestic mountains on both sides of me and the Kingdom of God, you should know that the Green Mountains and the Great Worm Mountains are dangerous and terrifying.

You don't want to be envious when you hear that people find the big gourd and open the spiritual liquid. As everyone knows, the Kitano family has been looking in the mountains for many years, spending countless efforts, and breaking a lot of elites of their own clan before finally finding the big gourd and ascending to the sky in one step. Desolate people, don't be too ambitious, the jungle and the big insect mountain range are far more terrifying than you think, and there are countless poisonous insects and beasts. If you are not careful, you will turn into a pile of white bones, and every year you die in the mountains because of the search for something. Even if you find the big gourd, it is in the treacherous place where the demon beast is entrenched, and if you don't cultivate enough, I'm afraid you will become the mouth of the demon beast. ”

When Shang Lao said this, he paused for a moment and took a sip of water before continuing: "Desolate man, if you have this kung fu to find a wild gourd, it is better to go to Jiuquan." Although it is not as valuable as the wild gourd, it is better to be safe, if you are lucky enough to meet the spiritual spring, then you will be sent. ”

Jiuquan?

Could it be that the classics say, "Water springs are like fine wine, and drinking too much will make you drunk." "The water of the spring.

Gongliang thought for a moment and asked, "Old man, what are you talking about Jiuquan!"

Seeing that he was puzzled, Shang Lao didn't explain, just took out a water bladder from the side and threw it over, "Come, how about tasting this thing?"

Gongliang took the water bladder, smelled it, there was no taste, took a sip, only to feel a stream of mellow liquor flowing into the mouth, smooth the throat abnormally, with a faint aroma lingering in the mouth, like spring water as clear, sweet, very wonderful.

"Good wine. ”

Gongliang praised repeatedly, suddenly realized, and couldn't help asking: "Old man, is this Jiuquan?" ”

"Well, this wine is good, isn't it?" said Shang Lao with a smile.

"It's really good. Gongliang nodded.

"Jiuquan, also known as water spring, is a special product of me and the kingdom of God, there were originally a few big springs in the country, but unfortunately they were all taken away by the monarch.

However, the monarch did not use it for personal purposes, and at the end of each year, he would take out part of the property obtained from the sale of Jiuquan and distribute it to the people of the country.

Although there are not many things, it also makes the people in the country feel their virtues. I have to say that our monarch is indeed a rare enlightened monarch. ”

Shang Lao gossiped a few words, and then said: "Except for the Jiuquan in the city and the nearby Big Eye, which was taken by the monarch as state-owned, other small and medium-sized springs were taken by people. However, most of the medium-sized springs that could be seen in the vicinity were occupied by the families in the city, and only a few small springs were left for the common people to use. However, this is not all the springs in the country. The land of God and I is vast, and the wine springs contained in it are unknown, so there are many people who specialize in looking for springs, and after finding them, they may sell them to kings and families, or buy and sell them themselves, so there are many people who get rich overnight.

I think I went to look for it back then, but unfortunately it was just a few small springs, and I barely got some drinks, but to no avail. Later, I was discouraged and didn't want to go around anymore so I went home to plant gourds and set up stalls to buy and sell.

Desolate, if you want to go, the old man can draw the route I used to find Jiuquan with you.

I didn't look for some places back then, so I guess there should be a medium spring in it.

Of course, old decay is not helping you for nothing. Since you are from the Great Wilderness, you should have a treasure bag on you. If there is any superfluity, if there is one, sell the old decay cheaply, or the old decay will exchange the elixir that you desolate people love for you. ”

The stall owner next to him was bright-eyed when he heard this, and walked over and asked, "Deserted man, do you have any more treasure bags, give me one too." ”

Elder Shang glared at him and shouted, "Go aside." ”

When the man heard Shang Lao's words, he had no choice but to retreat, but his eyes were eagerly looking at Gongliang.
