533.Chapter 533: Finally News from Monkey Valley
"Brother Luo, this is Grandpa Zhang!"
As soon as he entered the door, Thundercloud was introduced.
Lao Zhangtou said: "Little Leizi, what are you doing here! Hurry up and help me calculate how much these medicinal materials are, I still have to go home." ”
Lei Yun said: "Old Grandpa Zhang, what are you in a hurry, my two friends want to ask you about Monkey Valley." ”
"Monkey Valley?" the old man was stunned, "what kind of place is that?"
When Luo Xu and Ziqing heard this, they were a little disappointed, could it be that they had another fight?
Lei Yun said: "Didn't you tell my uncle that you went to a place when you were collecting medicine, and the monkeys there could speak human language." Old Grandpa Zhang, don't sue me for your bragging?"
Lao Zhang patted his thigh, "Hey, you're talking about that place, I didn't know that place was called Monkey Valley." There was no name for that place, and I walked into it by mistake, and there were a lot of monkeys in it, and some of them could speak human language, so they almost scared me to death. ”
Ziqing glanced at Luo Xu, and she told Luo Xu with her eyes that the place that the old man said should be the place they were looking for. The monkeys can speak human language, and there must be a high-ranking person living there in seclusion, which has enlightened the monkeys.
"Old man, do you remember where that place is?" Luo Xu asked.
The old man said: "Of course I remember, it's not far from the border." I tell you, don't go if you don't have anything important, that place is very strange. ”
Ziqing said: "Old man, can you please take us there? We do have something important." ”
Lao Zhangtou waved his hand again and again, that place was his nightmare, he was ninety-three years old this year, he began to go into the mountains to collect medicine at the age of ten, and he had come down for more than eighty years, he had never been to any place, he had never seen any poisonous snakes, insects and ants, and he had never been involved in any danger, but that time scared him enough.
"Little Leizi, you hurry up and calculate how much my basket medicine is, give me the money, and I'll go home." The old man said: "There are a lot of good things in this basket, don't fool me." ”
Ziqing saw that this old man loved money, and took out a wad of banknotes from his body, which amounted to 20,000 yuan, "Old man, as long as you promise to take us to that place, all this money will be yours." ”
"Really?" the old man swallowed as he stared at the wad of bills.
Zi Qing smiled: "Of course, this is just a deposit, when you get to the place, I will give you another 30,000, how about it?"
Lei Yun said on the side: "Old Grandpa Zhang, it adds up to a total of 50,000, with 50,000, you don't have to go into the mountains to collect medicine, you can rest at home with peace of mind!"
Lao Zhangtou said: "What are you going to do? This money is too much, and I am very unsure." ”
Luo Xu exposed the skin on his chest and showed it to Lao Zhangtou, "Old man, I can't hide it, I'm poisoned, and the poison on my body can only be solved by that person in the Monkey Valley." We went to Monkey Valley to find him to save his life. ”
Lao Zhangtou hesitated for a while, and slapped his thigh, "Yes, I'll go with you, this is a life-saving thing, and it's also a merit to talk about it." Of course, 50,000 yuan is what you said, and you can't lose a penny!"
Ziqing simply gave all the 50,000 yuan to Lao Zhangtou at one time, "Old man, you shouldn't have any worries now, right?"
Lao Zhang Toule couldn't close his mouth, nodded again and again, and said, "Two, do you think this is okay? I've been away from home for more than a month, and I'm finally back, let me go home and have a look first." How about we have lunch today and go?"
"How long does it take to get there?" Luo Xu asked.
Lao Zhangtou said: "It didn't take long for you to drive over, and it would be almost there in three or two hours, the key is that the mountain road is difficult to walk, and the place is not easy to find." ”
"Then as the old gentleman said, we will set off after lunch. Luo Xu said.
"Little Leizi, hurry up and calculate how much my herbs are, give the money, and I'll go home." "Lao Zhangtou is really a money fan.
Yin Xiaoqian, who was in the backyard, knew that Luo Xu and Ziqing were going and returning, and immediately rushed to the front, knowing that they finally had a clue, and she was so happy that she cried.
After lunch, Lao Zhangtou appeared on time. Lei Yun's uncle asked Lei Yun to go with him, so that he could take care of him.
The four of them got into the car, and Ziqing drove the car.
"How did you get this Burmese car?" asked Lao Zhangtou.
Lei Yun said: "You don't have to worry about it. ”
Ziqing used the old method to pass the national border and entered the territory of Myanmar. Lao Zhangtou showed them the way, and it only took them three hours to get to the place.
The four got out of the car, and Thundercloud carried the food and water that had been placed in the car on his back. Lao Zhangtou said: "We can't drive down, we have to climb up the mountain." Can you?"
Lao Zhangtou was a little worried when he saw that Luo Xu's face was not good.
"No problem. Luo Xu replied.
Lao Zhangtou took the lead and led the way in front, don't look at him is over 90 years old, but there is no problem with his body and bones, his ears are not deaf and his eyes are not dazzling, his legs and feet are dexterous, and his speed of climbing up the mountain is not slow at all.
"Old Grandpa Zhang, how did you practice this body? Thundercloud asked.
Lao Zhangtou said: "I have been collecting medicine in the mountains since I was ten years old, and I have practiced a good body. The air in the mountains is fresh, the air you breathe is unpolluted, and you deal with herbs every day, so your body will naturally improve. ”
"Although the old gentleman's words are simple, they contain the wisdom of the way to cultivate one's body!" Luo Xu said.
After climbing up for more than an hour, the four of them stopped for a short rest. Thunderclouds sent water to them.
After resting for a while, the four of them continued on their way.
Ziqing asked, "Old man, how long is it left?"
Old Zhang Tou looked up, "It's going to take two hours, we have to go down the hill." It was a valley. ”
Ziqing said: "It's almost dark this day, it seems that we won't be able to get there tonight." ”
The old man said, "Yes, climb up again, there is a small cabin on it, we can rest there for the night." Little Leizi, how did your master die?"
Lei Yun said: "We were arrested by the Burmese warlords when we were collecting medicine, they saw that I was young and did not kill me, so they arrested me and went to the army, and my master was shot and killed by them." ”
Lao Zhangtou said: "I told him a long time ago, if he is okay, don't take the road." Your grandfather and I have been safe and sound for so many years, do you think it is by luck? We are the ones who collect medicine, and we are most familiar with the mountains and forests, and as long as we enter the mountains, even if a battalion of soldiers arrests you, they may not be able to catch you. ”
Lei Yun sighed: "Old Grandpa Zhang, what's the use of talking about this now, my master and his old man can't survive no matter how much he does." ”
"Alas, your master is a good man. Old Zhang Tou sighed.
Lei Yun's master is well-known in the local area, not to mention his superb medical skills, the key is that he also has a benevolent heart, which is deeply loved by the local people.
