Chapter 24: The Mysterious Old Man
"Open. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info" Shen Dong shouted violently, and the white mist gradually dissipated, revealing a wet land, and the damp breath spread throughout the forest, which was difficult to dissipate for a long time.
A few people glanced behind them, naturally those black shadows had long since disappeared, thinking that they were now on the way to reincarnation, and even at this time, they had already obeyed Meng Po Tang.
"Whew. Lin Zixu patted her chest, relieved.
"Let's keep going. Long Yanran turned her head and said a word, and then stepped out.
"The soil here is a little moist, so you should pay attention to your feet. Shen Dong said and tightened his hands tightly on his waist, so as not to let the Xuandao Wind slide down.
"This kind of wetland is not formed by pure rainwater accumulation, but the humidity, soil, environment, and the right amount of light are all necessary for the growth of a medicinal herb. Shen Tao looked left and right and made a comprehensive summary of this area.
"So someone deliberately created such an atmosphere, doesn't that mean there will be a lot of herbs here?" Lin Zixu said, and he was a little excited.
"Stop, stop. Shen Tao turned around and stretched out his right hand to signal the other party not to talk about it, originally he was in a very good mood, but considering that the area under his feet was artificially created, then the grass and trees here were naturally not ownerless, and his mentality was inevitably a little bad.
"Hey, there really are herbs. Long Yanran stood on tiptoe and stretched out her arms to point to the herbs full of small flowers in front of her.
"Wow, that's beautiful. Lin Zixu's steps couldn't help but move in the direction of this flower.
"Don't touch it. ”
"Why?"
"This flower looks delicate, but its flowers and leaves actually hide venom and seal the throat with blood. "Shen Tao 1510, in detail, "It seems that the guy who lives here is a little difficult to provoke." It's just that the last sentence is as light as a mosquito.
"Hey, it's scary. Lin Zixu's face became more and more ugly when she heard this, and she hurriedly took a few steps back and shook her hand.
A few people chatted and walked like this, heading towards the unknown territory.
"Don't move. Suddenly, Shen Tao exclaimed.
"What's wrong?" At this time, Long Yanran's left foot was hanging in the air, and she turned her head sideways with a puzzled expression.
"Stand down. Shen Tao said and casually moved a dead wood stake next to him, and threw it in the direction of Long Yanran's travel, only to see that the wood did not stay on the grass, but gradually sank downward.
"What's going on?" Lin Zixu looked at Shen Tao.
"It's a swamp. Long Yanran said not salty.
Shen Tao nodded, the expressions of the four of them were a little dignified, the matter had come to this point, and the only way to climb all the way to the end was to climb all the way.
"You're firmly behind me. After Shen Tao finished speaking, he didn't wait for a few people to reply, he took the lead and walked forward, every step was extremely cautious, and the few people behind did not dare to slack off, and followed cautiously.
It took more than half an hour for a few people to walk out of this area, although it took a long time, but it was best to be able to walk out safely.
After walking a little further, I only felt that my eyes were suddenly open and bright.
"There is a bamboo bridge in front. Lin Zixu's eyes were sharp, and he saw a bridge made of bamboo from a distance.
Compared to the joy that this bamboo bridge brought to a few people, the house at the other end of the bridge is the real joy.
After crossing the bamboo bridge, there are several thatched huts in front, looking around, giving people a sense of seclusion and seclusion.
"The juniors and their entourage pass through here, and if there is any disturbance, I hope the seniors will forgive me. Long Yanran stood in front of the thatched house, clasped her hands into fists, and said respectfully.
After a long time, there was no movement in the house, and several people looked sideways.
"Seniors. Long Yanran raised the decibel level again and shouted.
"It doesn't seem like anyone. Lin Zixu smashed his mouth and was a little disappointed.
"How is that good?" You must know that Shen Dong is still carrying a person on his back.
"In my opinion, it is possible that this master has gone out to collect medicine. Shen Tao thought secretly and groaned slightly, "There are so many medicinal herbs planted in front of the house, and the predecessor who wants to live in seclusion here is also a good man who hangs a pot to help the world and is kind and charitable. ”
At first glance, what he said between his words was very clear and righteous, but could this be used as a reason for you to pick other people's herbs privately? And it is the largest plant in the entire herb garden.
Shen Tao muttered to himself, "It's fun to help others, everyone is for me..."
Why don't you say that I am a human being, and this guy is a selfish ghost.
Several people made eye contact, Shen Tao held the medicinal herb in his right hand, and stepped forward to push the door with his left hand, but before the palm of his hand touched the portal, he only saw a white shadow "brush" flashing.
Before I could look inside the room where the door had been opened, several people turned their heads outside in unison.
At this time, a small white thing was lying at Long Yanran's feet, its two front paws pulling from time to time, and its mouth made a sound of "Kukuku, woo woo".
"It turned out to be you, little guy, why are you here, come, come. "This little white guy is the rabbit that was caught by Shen Tao before.
The little white rabbit glanced at Shen Tao, who was approaching step by step, and began to pull up Long Yanran's shoes more impatiently, who bent down and gently held the little guy in front of him in his arms.
"Hey, that's going to be easy. Shen Tao stopped and confided in himself.
"What do you mean?" At this time, Shen Dong had already put down the Xuandao Feng and let his entire body lean on his side.
"This rabbit is also related to us, first helping us find a place to rest, and now we meet here. Shen Tao said, and couldn't help but laugh, "Then if I pick a few more herbs, I guess the owner here won't be able to say anything." ”
A dodge, and came to the herb garden, and the next moment, there were several more herbs with their own characteristics in his hands, although his behavior was a little unfriendly, as soon as he came up, he looted the herbs that were older than others, but the other three knew that everything he did was for the sake of Xuandaofeng, so it was not good to say anything.
Shen Tao held the herbs in one hand, and went to support Xuandao Feng with the other, and walked forward with Shen Dong holding left and right.
"Senior sister, hurry up. "Oh my God, his left hand was already full of herbs, and some of them were still covered with mud and water stains, so Nunu, who was not angry, motioned for Lin Zixu to help push the door open.
"I, this..."
"Ah, it's okay, don't we have it. ”
Under Shen Tao's step-by-step inducement, the door was finally pushed open.
The furnishings in the room were extremely simple, and they ignored everything else, and went straight to the bedside and placed the Xuandao Feng on it.
Long Yanran went out to inquire about the situation, Shen Dong was concentrating on arranging his formation outside, and Shen Tao was going to boil these herbs, plus the medicinal herbs he carried with him, into a pot of perfect tonic soup, leaving Lin Zixu to accompany Xuandaofeng.
"Senior brother, when will you wake up? Lin Zixu was holding a brocade handkerchief and was carefully wiping Xuan Daofeng's face.
A few people found out some of the surrounding conditions, and then took some precautions, and took care of Xuandaofeng, so they found a boiler and started to make a fire to cook.
When you're concentrating on one thing, you completely abandon the passage of time.
Just as it was already afternoon, and a few people were busy again, the sky, which was not very bright, seemed even darker.
The night came quietly, and when a few people fell asleep, an unkempt and sloppy figure appeared here.
His right hand was hidden on his left chest, covering it nervously, as if he had some treasure, for fear of being snatched by others, and muttered in a low voice as he walked, "Didn't the old man just pick a few of your herbs, stingy." ”
He walked towards his residence, and with a light sigh, his figure moved in an orderly manner, and he could glimpse the oil lamp in the room from a distance, and then swept his gaze, which was not tight, and he was startled at a glance, and he was like thunder, "Who? Which bastard stole me so hard... No, the herbs that have been cultivated have been picked. ”
"Squeak", the door was pushed open, and I saw a man lying on the bed, and four figures were sitting on chairs, napping at this time.
"Ahh
"Senior..."
"Look for death. The old man couldn't help but say, and with a flick of his left hand, white powder came out of his sleeve robe, instantly filling the entire room.
