Chapter 10: Day 2 (II)
Han Wen walked quickly, and when he returned to the house, he ignored Da Zhou, went straight back to the room, closed the doors and windows, quickly stripped naked, threw himself on the big bed, and slept in the quilt in broad daylight.
Rouge came out and stood by the bed, and when he saw someone wrapping himself in a rice dumpling just to cover up his crying, he couldn't help but feel powerless. You say that you cry when you cry, no one will laugh at it, such an awkward way of crying thinks that others can't hear it, it's too naΓ―ve.
"Alright, don't cry. Rouge was deaf when he heard it, "Isn't it just breaking up, what's there to be sad about." β
The man in the quilt lifted the quilt and quibbled: "Who said I was sad! I am disappointed!"
"Really?" Rouge squinted, staring at her pear-flowered face, and smirked, "Your face is full of 'I'm sad' inside and out, and I'm not mistaken." β
"That's blind, how can demons understand human emotions. β
"Who said that, my demon is very empathetic, come and see, what are you disappointed about?"
Han Wen stared at the walnut's big eyes, and said indignantly: "I knew that Junbai was not a good stubble, and I was so fascinated that Xiaoqi followed him with all her heart, and now this dead girl still dares to go against me for him, and she also talks about the past." It's like if I don't help them, I'm a sinner for the ages. I'm so angry, she's such a virtuous and virtuous wife, I'm so angry!"
What Huaqi did was not within the scope of Rouge's management, her task was to protect the eldest lady for twelve hours a day, in view of the fact that Huaqi hurt the eldest lady's heart, she was thinking about whether to cut the grass and eradicate the roots of Huaqi, isn't there a word in medicine called the right medicine.
"Hey, I'm talking to you, I'm distracted!" The irritable lady found that she didn't listen carefully to her troubles, and found an outlet for her resentment, and began to salivate and constantly bring out all kinds of past, repeating it several times, from big to small, from dense to fine, and her mouth was dry, and her throat was about to smoke before she let her serve herself with tea and water.
Rouge glared at her after drinking tea, thinking about whether to find a needle to sew up that mouth, it was too noisy, and it gave her a headache.
Fortunately, the eldest lady knows how to stop in moderation and return to her indifferent and ruthless side, and she is the invincible eldest lady.
Da Zhou, who had passed by her before, asked her outside the door at this time if she wanted to eat.
Han Wen is full of black lines, and just after breakfast, she came to lunch, how good she can eat to eat two meals in a row.
In fact, Da Zhou was not caring about the eldest lady's appetite, he rarely saw her in a low mood, and he was curious to see what kind of reason could hit the eldest lady.
After a series of inquiries to cover up their ears and steal the bell, the result can be imagined, and what they got was disdain and ridicule from inside the door.
Da Zhou retracted his curiosity stupidly and said: "Okay, since you are tired, I won't bother, then, if you need help, tell me, don't underestimate the big men, the big men can do a lot of things besides not being able to have children." β
There was silence in the door for a long time, and then, the eldest lady's faint voice passed through the crack in the door: "The street shops in the West Market are open." β
"Huh?" Da Zhou was stunned by the sudden question, but he still replied honestly, "At this time, it should be opened." β
"That's good, you go to the West Market to buy me some food. β
"What do you want to eat?" Da Zhou pricked up his ears and folded his fingers to memorize the name of the dish.
The eldest lady's words bounced to his head like marbles: "Sauce raw cakes, folded soup, flower folded goose cakes, spring fragrant soup, pickled chicken, cut cloud soup, squirrel osmanthus fish, money shrimp cakes, sunflower chopped meat, thousand days sauce, add milk curd, Qiankun Yi cake, fresh immortal material, cold powder, spicy proud sheep, jade tip noodles, Yuehua rice ......."
The eldest lady reported dozens of dish names without a break, and Da Zhou's fingers were broken and he couldn't remember ten.
Da Zhou burst into tears, and said in his heart that you are going to eat up a street! In other words, how do you remember the names of so many dishes?
After the person inside the door reported the name of the dish, he added a sentence at the end: "People with stupid brains are trouble, if you can't remember it, do you want me to repeat it again?"
Da Zhou cried and begged her to come again, regretting that he came to greet her for lunch, this is not a door-to-door abuse. The eldest lady plays tricks and bullies people, but the torturers die and live when she moves her mouth, and he is really bored to care about her.
Helplessly, the stones he moved still had to be smashed on his feet. He went out with a full head of dish names, and met Huaqi, who was also in a bad mood, and before he had time to complain about how difficult it was for the eldest lady to serve, Huaqi asked him where he went and what he was doing, so he should have asked him to bring a shrimp soup back.
Da Zhou really cried. One is enough, two bullies together, it's so not human!
.......
Yama Island, in the forbidden land. The adventure team walked for a day and a night, and finally found the entrance to the bottom of the abyss.
It was clearly bright daylight, at the bottom of this valley, there was not a ray of sunlight, surrounded by cliffs, the canopy of trees overhead obscured the sky, the humid air, the gloomy environment, and the smell of danger everywhere.
According to the Pirate King's account, they led a relatively flat path into the gate of two boulders, and the cliffs that rose from the ground along the way were shocking and striking, and while they lamented the wonders of nature, they were also worried about the unknown dangers that lay ahead.
Liu Changnan is undoubtedly the captain of the team, leading the way in front, commanding along the way, both responsible and steady, I don't know how long I walked, everyone began to sweat, Liu Changnan paused his feet, and the whole team rested for half an hour.
Xiaoxue couldn't stand the damp environment, and in addition to sweat, there was also dew on her clothes, which was sticky and greasy, and very uncomfortable. Liu Mo asked and laughed at her delicate and expensive body, and she couldn't bear a little hardship, but the cold-spoken Honghuan took out a bottle of ointment and wiped it on both sides of her temples, which immediately refreshed her mind and made her body cool and comfortable. Xiaoxue brazenly begged for a bottle, and wiped her whole body, as long as the exposed skin was seven or eight times, and then she was willing to keep up with everyone's pace and continue to go to the bottom.
After walking for more than two hours, there was a faint sound of water, and they knew that their destination was near, so they quickened their pace, and in less than half an hour, the sound of water became louder and louder, and their field of vision became wider and narrower, and they came to the most terrible place in the black city, which is said to be the most terrible place.
The Pirate King said that the Suzulin grass only grows in the deepest part of the valley floor, which is also the birthplace of each generation of Pirate Kings - the Tooth Eater Cage.
Countless stout iron rods were inserted into the cliffs on all sides, and the tips of the sticks met in the air with a black dot, dividing the valley floor in two, with the peak tip of the sky invisible on the top and the sealed iron cage below. The most amazing thing is that this iron cage is much larger than the average cage, and the entire valley floor is encircled into the cage with iron rods.
I don't know which ancestor's good ability, so many such heavy iron rods are plunged into the hard rock one by one, how many people and strength are required to do it, this question is probably not answered by the current pirate king. Because of its age, the iron rods on the stone have become one with the rock, as if they have grown out of the stone, and the rust and moss cannot corrode off an inch, which shows that the texture is far stronger than the rock.
There was only one entrance to the Tooth Eater cage - an iron gate small enough to fit into only one adult man.
The iron rods used to build the iron gates are much smaller than those that stand tall on the ground.
"It's really better to hear than to see, I've heard Wenwen say it before, but today I saw it with my own eyes to know that this place is so majestic. β
Wan Qian sighed while opening the iron door, thinking that no one had been here for many years, and the door had been locked, but with a slight pull, it was opened. It was so easy that Liu Changnan, who was standing behind, stared at the iron gate for a long time.
"The majesty of the fart, this is a place where people eat people. The devil knows how many human bones are buried underneath. Liu Mowen heroically stretched out his legs and stepped into the iron cage, the first to patronize the tooth-devouring cage that terrified the mainland.
The feeling of entering the inside and staying outside is instantly different, the outside is open and empty, and the space inside is large, but the iron rods that cannot be ignored enclose them intensively, invisibly bringing an oppressive sense of tightness, even the air wafting inside is not as cold and damp as outside, as if there is a smell of rotting corpses and blood, not strong but a little disgusting.
Xiaoxue's face turned pale with fright from the gloomy surroundings, "How do I think we think we are like birds in a cage, and we can't escape when we close the door." β
Liu Changnan cared about things and looked at the peak, "I don't know what time it is, and whether there is enough time is also a problem." β
"This place doesn't look very big, and you should be able to find Suzulin grass in a day. As long as we return the same way tomorrow, our mission will be successfully completed. "That's why I'm smiling.
"But," Wen Ze poured cold water on everyone to wake them up, "what does Linglin grass look like?" β
Belch...... That's right, what kind of grass is Suzurin!
Several people looked at each other and frowned bitterly.
Running here across the sea, the place has arrived, the time is sufficient, but at the critical moment I find that I don't know what things look like, it's like trying to find a treasure but forgetting to open the door because I forgot to bring it, if a lot of treasure is close but can't be touched, is there anything more unlucky in the world?
Liu Changnan was extremely annoyed, thinking that his sister was a doctor, he cast a gaze for help, but his sister also shook her head in confusion and ignorance.
Is it possible that this time the bamboo basket will be empty?
When she was at a loss, Hong Rao, who was in charge of the background board, said coldly, "I know what Linglin grass looks like." β
"Really?" The Han family seemed to grasp a life-saving straw, staring at Hong Rao with bright eyes.
"Hmm. Hongrao gave a simple answer, and then there was no follow-up.
How indifferent Hongrao's attitude was was no longer something that Liu Changnan and they were deeply studying, the hope that had just been shattered was ignited again, and they were so happy that they ignored a strange light in Hongrao's eyes.
Valley floor plant cats, some grass blades grow taller than people, they try to avoid those plants that look like poison, so hard walking, really let them find the legendary Linglin grass, really God helps.
As recorded in the ancient books, the appearance of the Linglin grass is similar to the Linglin flower, the only difference is that the leaf veins of the Linglin grass have more white lines, Hongrao told the Han family to dig out the roots when picking grass, and the leaf neck or leaves cannot be broken, otherwise the white lines will be damaged and the medicinal properties will be gone.
Liu Changnan looked at a large piece of Linglin grass and worried: "I don't know how many plants I have to bring back to cure the disease, the number of infected people is thousands, is it difficult to pull out all the grass?"
"That's going to take a few days, and there's not enough time. "Liu Mowen is the only one who refuses to bend down and pull weeds," "The Tao of Medicine" does not record the appearance of Linglin grass in detail, but it is said that the ghost doctor of the first generation of that year cured a city with only one leaf, which shows that the medicinal properties of this herb are so strong that they are against the sky. β
Wan Qian, who lowered her head and worked, saw her empty-handed, and hummed dissatisfiedly: "Standing and talking doesn't hurt your back, I don't know how to help, a crazy woman is a crazy woman, lazy and bad." β
After that, Liu Mo asked to take off his shoes and smash people, and after smashing them, he gave orders to pick up his shoes.
Because of the obscenity of the crazy woman, she dared to be angry and did not dare to speak.
Wen Ze, who is also a man, deeply sympathized and comforted him: "Don't be like her, the eldest sister said that a big man can bend and stretch to do great things." β
"Is she an ordinary woman?" the tigress could not compare to her.
Wen Ze covered his mouth, "Big brother, be quiet, Sister Mowen's ear power is not comparable to ordinary people." β
It was too late to be reminded, and when he felt an eerie anger behind him, he only had the three big words "finished" in his heart, and then, he was kicked into the ground by Liu Mowen and gnawed on a mouthful of mud.
The others were surprised for a moment, and then continued to pull the weeds.
"Mad woman!" he spat out the mud, and with a stick of grass between his teeth, he got up with a gray face, and suddenly there was a rustling sound in the grass in front of him, and he felt a strange move, stretched out his head, and slowly approached the grass in a toad kneeling position. Behind the gloomy shadows, two dark green candles in the cool air, round, emitted an uncomfortable light. Thousands of people wanted to see it clearly, but he turned his head, but who knew that the two clouds of light also shifted a few inches to the other, and he moved again, and the opposite side followed closely.
It's interesting, what could it be.
The adventurous spirit of thousands of years was aroused, and the two hands in the depths picked up the weeds, and the moment he saw the clouds, his face changed greatly, and he couldn't help but burst into a scream: "Ahββ!!"
The birds and beasts on the mountain wall fled in all directions in fright, and the peace of the valley bottom for many years was completely destroyed at this moment.
The others were not small in fright, and looked strangely at the man who was lying on the ground and couldn't get up, not understanding what was crazy.
Liu Mo rolled up his sleeves irritablely, and scolded: "What's it called?
"No, no, no, no, no!" Wan Qianqian trembled violently, and his face was more ugly than seeing a ghost.
Everyone thought he was going crazy, but the next second, following his gaze, a black shadow came out of the depths of the grass, wide and large, not too tall, at least no one was tall, like a tiger in the forest, but stronger than a tiger, and more importantly, the two lights flickering on the black shadow were brighter than the stars and hotter than the candle flame, thinking that they were ghost fires floating from the underworld - those were his eyes.
Everyone stared blankly at the black shadow, knowing that the black shadow had completely revealed its original appearance, and there was a gasping sound in silence.
The two horns sharper than the horns of the bull, the pattern darker than the leopard print, the hair denser than the lion, the big face more fierce than the wolf, the darker and darker the shadow is basically like the four dislikes depicted in the book, but the men and women present know that this thing is not the four dislikes, but the more terrifying beast, because he has sharp teeth like blades, and the nostrils are hot breathing, and the two shining torches on the top unabashedly exude a primitive desire - the desire to kill.
It's staring at them, and they're staring at it.
Xiaoxue's legs were weak, but fortunately there was Liu Changnan in front of her, she leaned closely on his back and asked in a low voice, "What is that?"
Liu Changnan was also wondering about this question, in fact, he was not as scared as Xiaoxue showed, he looked at the four-like animal, there was a vague shadow in his memory, it seemed that he had seen it somewhere, but he looked left and right for a long time, and came to a vague conclusion: "It should be, wolf, right?"
Some people didn't think it was a wolf, Liu Mowen squinted his eyes and looked at it carefully for a long time, and also came to a conclusion, "It should be a dog." β
Whether it's a wolf or a dog, no one cares.
Because it stared wide-eyed, it stepped forward and walked towards the person closest to it.
Seeing it coming towards him, he was so frightened that he had no master, mechanically turned his head back, squeezed out the word "bitter" on his facial features, and asked for help in a trembling voice: "Big brothers and sisters, help!"
