This is actually different from the plot I imagined, and we should have already headed towards the city in the original plan. Even at this time, you can already eat delicious street food, or delicious food from famous restaurants.

Anyway, we're now shuttling through this undeveloped primeval forest.

Carrying the chubby little doll that had fallen asleep, this little guy's heart was really big. I got lost, and I was able to sleep soundly on the back of a stranger. And the bitterness is really gentle. He was afraid that the leaves would scratch the delicate skin of the doll, so he even took off his coat and carefully wrapped the doll.

When I saw it, I only felt that the suffering at the moment was full of fatherly love, and driven by curiosity, I touched him with my arm. He looked up, "What's wrong?"

"Immortals, can you have children?"

I was surprised to ask such a question, but I still thought for a moment, "Actually, no." Many relationships between immortals, fathers, sons, mothers and daughters are relationships that have been determined in the world before becoming immortals. ”

"That's... Is it not possible to give birth, or is it not allowed to be born?" I was even more curious.

"How can I say it, immortals, I have already realized that I have saved the principles of heaven and destroyed people's desires. If there is no desire, how can there be the shackles of succession?"

But I was not satisfied with his answer, "When I saw you, I didn't destroy people's desires!"

I was stunned for a moment, but immediately posted it with a wicked smile, "What, do you want to give me a baby?"

I gave him a blank look, "Get out!"

He smiled and said to himself, "Unfortunately, I already have someone I like." ”

I don't know why, but my heart is a little sour. But I also know who he's referring to. The two of us are all together for a purpose, each for the sake of the person we love.

I calmed down, pushed out all the mess in my head, and looked at the forest ahead of me, which was already dark. It should be late afternoon, but it's dark early in the mountains.

In fact, I really want to release my spiritual power and use the Broad Touch Technique to find out where this ginseng doll's home is. But if I do that, the little doll will know I'm a demon. If he is afraid to run away, he may encounter greater danger.

Besides, I don't know why, I don't know when it started, but life and suffering can slowly be used as a reliable synonym like Chongming. With him by my side, even though I maintain a mortal body, I still don't feel the slightest fear.

"You, can you find the deep valley of the leaf that the ginseng doll said?" I don't know how long I walked, but it was already completely dark. Sounds that could not be heard during the day began to come from the woods.

He had built a fire and was adding wood to it.

The little ginseng doll had woken up, and he sat beside the fire obediently, and threw a small branch into the fire as if he was suffering, and the flame jumped excitedly, and he danced happily.

"See, the joy of a child is as simple as that. Sheng Ku turned to look at me and said.

I was also amused by his innocent and lively aunt, and I only felt that my mother's love was suddenly overflowing.

"Today we rested early, I don't know how deep this mountain is. It's easy to get lost when you're on the road at night. "I don't know what kind of fruit it is, but it's sweet and sour.

The ginseng doll took a bite and thought it was delicious, and after eating three at once, she pestered him to pick it again. He patiently climbed up to the treetops again, and then shook it vigorously, and the fruit crackled and fell down.

"Yo, it's raining fruit!" the ginseng doll jumped and ran happily, and then gathered all the fruits together. He picked out the two largest fruits, wiped them with his little belly pocket, and handed me one.

"Oh, this is just Sister Gentle!" and then handed the other one to Sheng Ku, "This is for Brother Amazing!"

I smiled and stroked the pigtails on his head, "That's good, you can eat, my sister is already full." ”

He sighed, "Why does my sister eat so little!" and then ran over and gently pinched my wrist, "It must be that my sister is too hard to follow my brother to eat well." You see, they're all so thin. As he spoke, his big eyes began to sparkle with something shiny.

I was afraid of making him cry, because I really didn't have experience in coaxing children, so I immediately took the fruit in his hand and took a big bite. "Okay, well, then sister will eat more, and eat her arms as fat as you. ”

The little ginseng doll smiled happily, then grabbed a fruit and ate it with me.

That night, I slept soundly. Maybe it was because there was suddenly a fat doll in my arms that was soft and chubby with its own body temperature, and at that moment it filled all the emptiness I had in the past few years.

When I woke up the next day, I suddenly found that the place where I was suffering was empty, and I got up and looked around, but I couldn't see him. Just as I was wondering, a small pink flower suddenly floated down my head. I bent down to pick it up, only to realize that Sheng Ku was actually looking at me with a smile from the big tree above me.

"What are you doing up there?" I looked up at him, "have you spent the whole night up there?"

Sheng Ku made a shushing gesture to me, and then lowered his voice, as if he was afraid of waking up the ginseng doll.

"It's deep in the mountains, what if we fall asleep and a beast or monster picks you up? Speaking proudly, as if waiting for my compliment, I saw his caution, so I decided to ignore his appeal.

"Then it's dawn now, why don't you come down?

He leaned down half of his body, as if to pull me up. I was stunned, "What are you doing?"

"Come up and see. ”

"If you just tell me, wouldn't it be fine. I don't go up. ”

"If you don't understand, come up!"

I saw that I was sincere and didn't seem to be a deliberate prank, so I had to stretch out my hands. Sheng Ku hugged me directly, and then pulled me up.

The tree was not too thick, and after standing two people at once, it was suddenly a little crowded. Then he pointed to a dark gray forest in the distance for me to see. I watched for a long time, but I didn't see anything, so I asked him curiously. When he saw that I was not enlightened, he sighed helplessly, "There was a poet named Tao Hongjing in the Song Dynasty, and he once wrote a poem called "Picking Ginseng". The whole poem is written,

Three buds and five leaves, back to yang to yin.

If you want to come to me, the linden trees are looking for each other.

Roughly speaking, this ginseng likes to grow in a cool, moist place in the linden forest. And," said Sheng Ku, pointing to the forest again, "the linden tree, the bark is dark gray. ”

It was only then that I really understood what he was trying to say, "So, you're saying that piece of woods is likely to be the home of this ginseng doll?"

Unexpectedly, he shook his head, "I don't know much about ginseng dolls, so everything is still uncertain, and most of it depends on guesswork and luck." ”

This was true, and I nodded. The heart said that no matter what, this linden forest must be visited.

"Brother and sister, why are you two on the tree?" The voice of the ginseng doll suddenly came, and I looked down, I didn't know when he had woken up, and he was looking up at the two of us curiously. I jumped down from the tree and came to his side.

"Brother and sister are looking for your home!

Sheng Ku also jumped down and asked, "You still can't remember how to get home today?"

The ginseng doll thought about it very seriously for a while, and then shook her head aggrievedly.

"Don't force him," I touched the doll's pigtails, "I didn't leave the house myself when I was this old." ”

The doll seemed to have received my support, and she looked at the bitterness with pride. Sheng bitterly smiled helplessly, as if he couldn't say anything else at such a time.

The three men had eaten the fruit, and had filled it with some fruit, and went in the direction of the linden forest. It's still the old rule, and he took the doll on his back, but this time, he went a little seriously to warn the doll not to sleep.

"Maybe when you come to your neighborhood, you will remember something, so that my brother and sister can avoid many detours. ”

The ginseng doll nodded obediently, her eyes wide. His expression began to become serious. I looked at it and wanted to laugh, so I gently patted him on the back, "Don't be so nervous, just relax." ”

When the ginseng doll heard this, she was discouraged, "Alas, I'm so tired, so tired." ”

Both Shengku and I were amused by him, and he was stunned for a moment, and then laughed along.

Now that there is a goal, it seems that walking is not as hard as when it is aimless, and the three of them are talking and laughing along the way, but they are also very happy. Occasionally, Shengku would jump on a big tree to find the direction of the linden forest to adjust our route in time, and whenever Shengku jumped high, the vocal doll would cheer excitedly.

Finally, after seeing the dense green trees pass by in front of our eyes, finally, I saw the dark gray forest.

I usually live in the city, but even if I am a modern rural person, I rarely enter such a deep mountain, and I don't even recognize poplars. If I hadn't already introduced it before, I might have been surprised to see such a large lime forest.

Sheng Ku asked the ginseng doll behind him, "Take a good look, is there an impression here?"

The ginseng doll poked its head out of his head, then suddenly waved his hand excitedly and said, "Yes! I remember I've seen it here!"

Sheng Ku breathed a sigh of relief, he put the ginseng doll off his body, and then leaned against the tree to distribute the fruit to us, "It seems that we are in the right direction, rest for a while, eat the fruit, and then we will go into the woods." ”

I gently stroked the bark with my hand, and it looked very rough. While eating the fruit, he looked at the edge of the woods. Suddenly, I saw two people dressed as hunters coming from afar.

Sheng Ku reacted faster than I did, and he immediately put the clothes wrapped around the ginseng doll back on the doll's body. And the little doll also seemed to sense the danger, and behaved motionlessly.
