Chapter 203: A Blessing in Disguise
The cuckoo said: "We saw the words on the birch bark you brought back from the white horse, and we were all relieved to know that you had found Ah Ling.
However, after waiting for three or four hours, I did not see you return, so I became a little anxious again.
Supposedly, in such a long time, you should have walked back, even if you have been a little far away. Did something happen along the way?
But you didn't say where you found Ah Ling, and we don't know where to go to find you.
Just then, there was a sudden neighing of horses.
Your white horse, not knowing what was happening, ran out of the saddle and ran into the woods.
I quickly mounted my black-maned red horse and followed.
Under the leadership of the white horse, when I found all the way to the foot of the Falling Star Valley, I happened to see Ah Ling carrying your body on her back and stumbling down the mountain.
At that time, you were in a coma that frightened us, closed your eyes tightly, gritted your teeth, and no matter how much you called, you didn't feel the slightest feeling.
We had to tie you to the white horse's back and carry you back to the hut.
I originally wanted to send you to the county hospital overnight, but then Uncle Bol came, and after looking at your appearance, he said that you were nothing serious, probably because you were lost by the mandrill in the Falling Star Valley, and you will be fine as long as you sleep for a few days. ”
Ling Zikai asked with some surprise, "I met a mandrill?"
The cuckoo nodded and said, "Uncle Boer said that in those days, the town organized some mountain people to cut down those trees in the Falling Star Valley. As a result, after entering the valley pit, something happened one after another that some people would faint inexplicably. But as soon as you come out of the valley, you will wake up after sleeping for a day or two.
At that time, the news was so loud that no one knew what was going on.
Some old people say that there is a mandrill hidden in the Falling Star Valley.
However, this mandrill is kind by nature and never harms the innocent. Although the humans broke into its territory, it only stunned the people, and warned everyone to leave quickly.
It is for this reason that the primeval forest in the Falling Star Valley has not been cut down and has been preserved. ”
Ling Zikai listened to Du Juan's explanation and felt that her words were not credible.
According to the sources, mandrills refer to one of the largest primates in the monkey family in the world.
The head is large and long, with a bony protrusion on each side of the nasal bone, with longitudinally arranged ridge-like protrusions in between, with a groove in between, covered with green skin, and bright red between the ridges.
Males have about 6 main grooves on each side, and their red part extends around the nasal bone and snout, and this brightly colored special pattern resembles a ghost, hence the name mandrill.
In Chinese myths and legends, it is a kind of one-legged ghost in the mountains.
It is mentioned in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas: The Classic of the Sea": "There is a Gan giant in the south, with a human face and long arms, a black body with hair, and a heel that is reversed. ”
It is said that this legendary ghost comes and goes without a trace, moves quickly, and likes to come out at night to eat the brain marrow of animals.
However, at that time, there was no strange shadow found in Ling Zikai's consciousness, could it be that the mandrill also had an invisible energy, which collided with his ancestral god energy, thus causing himself to fall into a coma?
Thinking of the ancestral god energy, Ling Zikai found that his body was empty, and the ancestral god energy originally generated had disappeared. Could it be that it was destroyed in the impact?
Ling Zikai's surprise is not small, you must know that if there is no inheritance of the ancestral god, he is not an ordinary person, and what advantages will he have in staying in this mountain in the future.
He subconsciously wanted to drive the ancestral god consciousness, and after feeling the image of the wooden house in his mind, he let out a long sigh in his heart. Fortunately, the consciousness of this ancestral god has not disappeared, which means that he still has the identity of a shaman, and the disappeared energy should be able to be slowly replenished!
At this moment, Ling Zikai seemed to hear a voice in his head.
His consciousness extended along the words, and he saw that in another wooden house, He Wandong and Zhang Fang were whispering.
"Wan Dong, you said that Ling Zikai has been lying in bed for a day and a night, and he hasn't woken up yet, will there be any accidents, let's send him to the hospital for treatment quickly!" Zhang Fang said with some concern.
He Wandong pondered for a moment and said cautiously: "Don't worry about this! I'm a little worried about Ah Ling!"
"What are you worried about her?" asked Zhang Fang, a little puzzled.
"Have you noticed that this girl has something wrong with her attitude towards Ling Zikai. ”
"Do you mean to say that Ah Ling has fallen in love with Ling Zikai? This is impossible, they have only known each other for a few days. Moreover, if you don't see them meet, they will talk about it, where is the slightest love in love!"
"There's an old saying, isn't it that enemies don't get together! I see that Ah Ling is against Ling Zikai everywhere on the surface, maybe she should care about him in her heart, so she will be extra picky!"
"Then what should I do, although Ling Zikai's child is not bad, but if he really marries Ah Ling, it is not very suitable!"
"To say that Ling Zikai is a little worse than his family background, he can still match Ah Ling in other aspects. By the way, I'm going to tell you another thing now, you should never pass it on to other people, including Ah Ling. ”
"What's the matter, so mysterious?"
"Let me tell you, Ling Zikai is not an ordinary person, there is something special in his body, how can I say this kind of thing, it is like the kind of vitality described in those fantasy novels, and it has a mysterious effect.
I've seen with my own eyes that he can bring a dead branch back to life. ”
Zhang Fang's eyes widened and said, "You won't be joking with me, right?" According to you, he has become one of those gods in mythology. ”
Seeing that his wife didn't believe it, He Wandong showed a malicious smile on his face, got up and closed the door of the wooden house, walked up to her, and hugged her.
Zhang Fang struggled for a moment and said, "I said that you have not been on fire in the past two days, and you tossed it all night yesterday, and you will tire me to death." Do you want to do that again now?"
He Wandong said with a smile: "Did you feel very cool last night, did you feel that your husband has become like when he was young, and he is not down!"
Zhang Fang's face turned red, and he said angrily: "I think the older you are, the more unserious you are!"
"Let me tell you, this is also the credit of Ling Zikai. He once put that vitality into my body, making me feel that I was a teenager younger and full of vitality all of a sudden!"
He Wandong couldn't help but put his hand into Zhang Fang's clothes as he spoke, and began to grope on her chest.
Ling Zikai knew that He Wandong and his wife were going to put on a good show next, and some children were not suitable, so they were embarrassed to peep any longer, so they quietly withdrew their consciousness.
Thinking of He Wandong's anxious appearance, he couldn't help but show a smile on the corner of his mouth.
"Looking at the evil smile on your face, you must be thinking about something indecent!"
He Ling said to Ling Zikai with some disdain.
It's you Lao Tzu who is not serious!" Ling Zikai muttered to He Ling in his heart.
Thinking of the conversation between He Wandong and his wife just now, Ling Zikai thought with some unconvincing: I also said that I am not worthy of you, isn't it just that I have some money in the family, and in the future, Lao Tzu will become the richest man in the world, let you see who is not worthy of whom!
Wait! Why do I feel like something is wrong?
Ling Zikai frowned, trying to recall the scene he had seen in his consciousness just now, and suddenly thought of a question, and couldn't help laughing: "I know what's going on! I didn't expect that this time I was a blessing in disguise and got a great benefit!"
