The weather in the mountains is changeable, and the sun was shining brightly, but in the blink of an eye, the sky gradually became overcast, and it seemed like it was about to rain......

After turning over a small hill, a peach forest appeared in front of Zhong Lin and the others. Even the layman's Zhong Lin could see that this peach grove was much better than the one he had asked Boss Lu about before!

First of all, the peach trees in this peach grove are much thicker than the peach trees I have seen all the way before! In addition, this peach grove is leaning against a small hill on one side, and on the other side is a small pond formed by the low-lying terrain after the stream flows, which is exactly what Boss Lu said before. Not only that, Zhong Lin felt a little strange from the first time he saw this peach forest, but he couldn't say what was strange for a while.

"This peach grove is the peach grove of my friend I mentioned earlier, which is one of the peach groves that will be auctioned today. Lu Shouyi pointed to the peach grove in front of him and said.

At this moment, an old man came out of the cabin next to the peach grove, and when the old man saw the three of them coming, he greeted him directly.

"Shouyi, are you here?" the old man's voice was a little hoarse.

"Coming, coming, brother, it's not just me coming, I've brought two friends. Lu Shouyi said and introduced the two sides.

The old man's name is Chen Wanyuan, and he has been with Peach Tree all his life.

"Brother, why are you willing to sell this peach tree? This is the hard work of your family for generations!" Lu Shouyi asked with some puzzlement.

"Shouyi, I won't tell you anything, how could I be willing to sell it? However, you don't know that those people from the island country come to my house twice in three days, and they have used all kinds of tricks, and if I have to sell this peach tree to them, I will also be forced to be helpless! Hey, you see that I have been on fire these days, and my voice has become hoarse! However, later I also came up with a solution, that is, auction, the highest price will be won, don't you island people want it? It's not that I don't sell to you, whoever pays more money, I will sell it to whomever I want. Even if they buy it in the end, it will have to give them a little more blood!" Chen Wanyuan said with a smug smile on the corner of his mouth, and he had to say that he was indeed as Lu Shouyi said - very shrewd.

"Brother, I thought about it for a long time yesterday, no, I came here early today just to participate in the auction of your peach forest!" Lu Shouyi said firmly.

"Okay!Shouyi, you can shoot it, the extra money will be counted as my share, I would rather pay an extra auction fee than let this peach forest fall into the hands of the island people!" Chen Wanyuan said, grabbed Lu Shouyi's hand, and shook it tightly.

At this moment, a dazzling lightning bolt streaked through the air, followed by a bomb that sounded in the ears of several people......

"Boom ......"

The ears of several people present at the scene were buzzing, and the windows of the cabin were also shaken to the point of "clanging, clanging".

A few people turned their heads to look at it, and they were all shocked into a cold sweat! Just by the pond forty or fifty meters away from the people, there was a big peach tree that had just been struck by lightning. The trunk of the large peach tree was split in half, the branches crackled, and the flames were swaying, because the crown of the tree was large, the fire was really not small, and there was a tendency to ignite the surrounding peach trees, and if the surrounding peach trees were also ignited, it was likely to cause a wildfire......

"Quick, call someone to put out the fire!" Lu Shouyi was the first to pull out the phone.

Zhong Lin seemed to be being dragged by a mysterious force and walked straight to the big peach tree that was burning at the moment......

"Yami, Yami, it's delicious!"

"Who?, Ling'er, are you talking?" Zhong Lin asked. However, he soon realized that it could not be Ling'er, because this time he heard the voice of a little boy.

"Am I that voice? That's your little Ding Ling talking, this guy has gone out of shit luck, after following you, he first absorbed the fire of red gold, and now he has absorbed the fire of heavenly thunder!

"Master, master, Sister Ling'er is right, I am Ding Ling......" The little boy's voice sounded again.

"Hey, hey, who's your sister, I'm much better than you!" Ling'er began to "rely on the old and sell the old" again.

"Sister Ling'er, I called you sister because I saw you come first, didn't you say it before, I'm much older than you......"

"Did I say that, did I say it, I just know that you're a little kid now......" Ling'er said with a grimace.

"Hey, hey, have you two quarreled enough, do you use me as air?" Zhong Lin couldn't help it, he was thinking that if he continued like this, one day he would be insane, and who knew if there would be another Ling'er two, three, or four Ling'er in the future, or Dingling two, three, and four!

"Master, I won't bother you, I'll go to sleep. Ding Ling was very obedient, and there was no sound after speaking.

"Master, you think too much, having the two of us is already your great creation, do you think that your skin is really loved by everyone, and the flowers bloom?!By the way, don't underestimate this little Ding Ling, he is a big baby, tsk ...... tsk" Ling'er kept smacking her tongue.

By the time Lu Shouyi and Chen Wanyuan came to the scene, the fire had already been extinguished, and everyone naturally didn't think that it was Zhong Lin's credit, but just thought it was a false alarm.

Zhong Lin suddenly felt that the black and swarthy in front of him had been burned, and at this moment, a trace of spiritual power was surging on the smoking branches......

"Master, aren't you very strange, why is there a heaven and earth spiritual power on this thunder splitting peach wood?" Ling'er said mysteriously.

"That's right, since you know what I'm thinking, tell me quickly, don't sell it!" Looking at Ling'er's arrogant appearance and gushing about it, Zhong Lin has long been used to it......

In fact, Zhong Lin also had some understanding of peach trees. The peach is the essence of the five trees, so the one who suppresses the evil spirit. Li Shizhen once wrote in the "Compendium of Materia Medica": "The peach taste is spicy and evil, so it can hate evil." In addition, the legendary Antarctic immortal who dominates the source of life in the world always holds a huge fairy peach in his palm, so the peach has the saying of avoiding evil and disease, and prolonging life.

Most people think that the pronunciation of the word "peach" and "escape" is the same, so they take its meaning, thinking that with peach wood can escape the disaster, in fact, it is far more than a literal homonym......

Peach wood has an extremely important position in China's folk culture and beliefs. Peach wood, also known as "dragon wood" and "ghost wood", is the most widely used material for killing evil spirits and making ghosts. Legend has it that Kuafu chased the sun, and before he died, he threw out the sacred tree and turned it into a peach forest. And the earliest Spring Festival couplets in our country are made of peach wood boards, so it is also called peach charm, for thousands of years, peach wood has the saying of suppressing disasters and avoiding evil, known as divine wood.

There is also a legend that Hou Yi was killed by his apprentice Feng Meng, Feng Meng's tool for plotting Hou Yi was a peach wood cane, and Hou Yi rose to the god after his death, and the god's name was Zongbu. Holding a tiger in his hand, he leads the inspection of ten thousand ghosts and is the king of ghosts. If there is an evil ghost in the ghost, it will be eaten by the tiger, and the peach wood can kill the ghost king, and it can avoid ghosts. Since then, the legend of peach wood to ward off evil spirits has spread. Folk peach wood swords, peach wood doors, peach charms, peach wood ornaments, etc. abound.

According to Ling'er, the above is not all legends, the peach tree itself is indeed able to gather and absorb the aura of heaven and earth, so some elves will attach themselves to the peach tree, and when they absorb enough aura of heaven and earth, they will cultivate into immortals or demons. However, everything has its own laws and rules of development, and the fairy road is no exception, whenever the elves are about to succeed, they will suffer from the heavenly calamity, that is, the blow of the heavenly thunder. In fact, it was not the peach tree that was struck by the thunder, but the elves attached to the peach tree. The moment the lightning struck the elf, the elf was wiped out, and the spiritual power that had been gathered in its body for decades or even hundreds or thousands of years was left in the thunder splitting peachwood. And at this time, the peach wood left the spiritual power of heavenly thunder......

Zhong Lin only now understood why he had a strange feeling when he first saw these peach trees, and now when he looked closely, he found that many peach trees here were attached to elves!

Put down Ling'er and make up for Zhong Lin's "knowledge" about thunder splitting wood for the time being. At this moment, Chen Wanyuan at the scene changed from surprise to joy, for him, it was like a big pie falling from the sky. Since the last time he sold the thunder split peach wood to the island people, he was also very strange, why the island people were willing to spend a lot of money to buy the black lacquer wood? So he checked a lot of information and asked a lot of people, and finally figured out one point, that is, this thunder split peach wood not only inherited the effect of peach wood to ward off disasters and evil spirits, but also can be used as a magic instrument. That alone would be worth more than three times the value of the peach tree itself.

Sure enough, the "freshly baked" thunder split mahogany attracted the attention of buyers......

"Boss Chen, can you sell me this peach tree that has been struck by lightning?" A dull voice sounded that he didn't know which word to go to. You don't need to look at it to know that it's an islander.

Seeing that Chen Wanyuan just looked at himself and didn't speak, the islander continued: "I'll give you 50,000 yuan!" As he spoke, the islander stretched out his right hand, and his five fingers were separated and waved in the air.

The people who had just been called to prepare to fight the fire next to him all smacked their tongues, 50,000 yuan! This price is enough to buy 5 peach trees like that! This Boss Chen is really a blessing in disguise!

"Let me think about it. The expression on Chen Wanyuan's face was very calm, and it was obvious that the price offered by the island people did not make him feel tempted at all.

"Boss Chen, sell it to me, I'll give you 60,000 yuan!" This time it was a man in a gray preaching robe who was hiding behind the crowd, and when he saw that the island people wanted to buy thunder splitting peach wood, he squeezed in.

"Boss Chen, I'll pay 100,000!" Seeing that someone wanted to earn money with him, the island people raised the price directly without saying a word.

Chen Wanyuan was a little in a dilemma, he looked at the gray-robed Taoist, to be honest, he was already very satisfied with the price offered by the island people, but he didn't like the island people from the bottom of his heart, and he didn't want to sell the thunder split peach wood to them. But he couldn't help but sell to a higher bidder, which made him a little embarrassed.

The gray-robed Taoist frowned, gritted his teeth and said, "Then I, I'll give 100,000 and 1,000 ......."

"I'll pay 150,000 yuan!" The island people didn't wait for the gray-robed Taoist to finish speaking, and directly raised the price to 150,000 yuan, showing an arrogant and inevitable appearance.

This time, the gray-robed Taoist directly lowered his head, and the island people were even more arrogant, and with a wave of their hands, they were about to ask someone to carry the thunder splitting peach wood away.

"Wait, wait, I haven't said to sell it yet, so let's do it, I've decided, wait a while, this thunder splitting peach tree and peach grove will be auctioned together, and the one with the highest price will win!"

Chen Wanyuan knew in his heart that it seemed that the islanders were bound to win it today, so he couldn't let them take away the thunder splitting peach wood so easily! Naturally, he would not forget how the islanders harassed their families these days in order to achieve the purpose of letting him sell the peach orchard. You can't stop them, but at least you have to give them more blood!

When the people of the island country saw that Chen Wanyuan had made such a decision, they had no choice, they couldn't just go up and rob it without selling it! They could only glare at Chen Wanyuan and leave indignantly......
