Chapter 15 The bamboo forest meets a bosom friend and secretly has a complex
As soon as he woke up, the red sun was rising, Shen Linglang got up and packed his bags while calling a few people: "Ling Xuan, Wanyun, Lin Xi, wake up, it's time for us to go." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”
Several people walked all the way south according to the method of looking for the mountain pass to the north, and walked out for a long time, but still could not find any traces. They still walked back to the Ice and Fire Forest, and when they returned to the Peach Blossom Forest, they saw a bamboo forest mountain to the south.
"Brother, there is a bamboo forest on a mountain in front, let's go up and have a look!" Shen Lingxuan said.
"Well, that's what I mean, let's go." Shen Linglang said and walked towards the bamboo forest.
The bamboo forest is beautiful, and there is another scenery, and I walked in it for more than ten minutes.
Suddenly, I heard a child talking: "Grandma, grandma, don't sleep here, let's go home!" ”
A few people heard that what was said was wrong, so they searched for it, and saw an old woman lying on the ground on a slope, talking to a little boy next to her with her eyes closed: "Bamboo! You wait a while, when I fell just now, my grandmother broke my foot, and now I'm dizzy, you wait, I'll just lie down for a while. Let's go home again. ”
Several people hurried over and gathered around the old man and asked, "Old man, are you okay?" Use us to help. ”
The old man slowly opened his eyes, quickly closed them again and said, "I'm fine, just now in order to chase my grandson, I didn't see the road, I stepped on the air, my feet were broken, and my head was dizzy, just take a rest." ”
"Let's take you home, where is your home?" Shen Linglang asked.
"Thank you, it's just that it's so bothering you well-wishers!" The old lady said.
"Hey, it's okay, who hasn't encountered difficulties, come and I'll carry you." Saying that, Shen Linglang squatted down.
Everyone helped the old lady to Shen Linglang's back, Shen Lingxuan carried the little boy, Jiang Linxi and Shen Wanyun followed all the way, making the little boy happy. In this way, under the guidance of the old lady, I walked for less than an hour and came to a very hidden bamboo forest. There are several houses made of bamboo here, and the yard fence made of bamboo is very elegant.
Shen Lingxuan put down the little boy, and the little boy called for his grandfather and ran into the house.
Hearing the shout, an old man with a childish face came out of the house and stood under the eaves of the house. When several people carried the old lady into the courtyard, the old man hurriedly came forward.
Looking at a few young people and old ladies, they asked in surprise, "What's the matter, how many of you are?" ”
"Old man, just now on the road we met this old woman who fainted and broke her foot, so I sent him back." Shen Linglang said.
"Old man, thanks to these young men, I don't know when I'll be back! Let these children into the house, it's tiring along the way. The old lady said to the old man on Shen Linglang's back.
"Oh, come in, come in." As he spoke, the old man led the way and let a few young people into the house.
A few people entered the house, put the old man on the bed in the inner room, and saw that the old lady was safe and sound, so they returned to the hall with the old man.
"You may be seated." The old man gave up his seat and made a few teas for them: "Thanks to a few of them today, I don't know what will happen to my old lady." ”
"Uncle, you're polite, when everyone needs help, you don't have to be too polite." Shen Linglang said.
"Old man, how do you live here!" Shen Lingxuan asked.
"Isn't it good to live here?" The old man asked with a hearty smile.
"It's good, but it's too lonely, you're all so old, if something happens, there's no neighbor to help." Shen Lingxuan said.
"Haha, it makes sense, but I'm here, it's also a messenger relay station, I used to teach, but now I'm older, and I don't teach students anymore, so I write braille and paint at home to talk about the remnants of life, and my life is quiet and comfortable. There is a son and a daughter in the family, and the daughter went to the house today to get something from his brother. The old man stroked his beard and said.
"Dad, I'm back." Before the words fell, a big girl with clear eyebrows came in.
"Yun'er, why did you come back so quickly? Have you been there? The old man asked the girl.
"Dad, I felt my heart flutter halfway through, so I came back, where is my mother?" The girl asked.
"Your mother just took Zhu'er out to play, and accidentally fell a foot, and now she is walking in the house." The old man said.
"Ahh When the girl heard this, she hurried into the back room.
"This is my daughter's poetry," the old man introduced.
"Is the uncle just a daughter and a son?" Jiang Linxi asked the old man.
"Yes, a son and a daughter. My daughter was afraid that my husband and I would have no one to take care of me in this bamboo forest, so I didn't worry, so I came to live with me. Sometimes he also helps his brother run his business. ”
"Uncle, what kind of business does your son run?" Shen Wanyun asked.
"The son and daughter-in-law are at home with another grandson. Because I like to raise flowers, I run a flower shop in the town, selling flowers, honey and whatever. The old man said.
At this time, Shiyun walked out of the back room: "Dad, my mother told me everything just now." After speaking, he turned to Shen Linglang and saluted a few times: "Today, thanks to a few rescues, the little girl is grateful." Please bow down to the little woman. After speaking, he bowed down.
"Sister, please get up. The seam is the reason why there is no salvation when you see it. Shen Wanyun hurriedly came over to help Shiyun up.
"Yes, you're welcome," said everyone in unison.
"It's almost noon when you look at the sky, and you have not had lunch yet? If you don't like it, please have a light meal at the humble house. Shiyun looked at a few people and said.
"What's so embarrassing about that." Shen Lingxuan said.
"Just now this sister said that meeting is fate, since this is the case, you don't have to be polite." Shiyun said to everyone with a good-looking smile.
"Okay, I'll help you." Ling Xi stepped forward and said.
"Well, I don't know how to cook, I'll give you a hand." Shen Wanyun also came over and said.
The three of them walked out of the hall laughing. Shen Linglang and Shen Lingxuan stayed in the house to drink tea and talk with the old man.
"Uncle, I listened to Miss just now, it seems that I have read poetry books." Shen Lingxuan asked the old man.
"Yes, this girl doesn't love anything else, follow me, she loves to write a poem, draw a picture, it's useless, foolish." The old man pointed to the painting on the wall and said, "You see, there is a little girl in this room who painted it, and there is a poem inscribed on it." ”
Only then did Shen Linglang and Shen Lingxuan discover that there were several ink paintings pasted on the walls of this bamboo house, including landscapes and flowers. There are also poems on it.
The two of them stood up and followed the old man's fingers, admiring the calligraphy and paintings introduced by the old man.
"Uncle, I guess this painting is the work of Miss Shiyun. And this one must be your masterpiece. Shen Lingxuan said.
"Oh? How so? The old man asked with interest.
"Uncle, look at the calligraphy and painting: this word, although the word is strong and powerful, it is beautiful. In this painting, although the mountain is magnificent, it also exudes a marital atmosphere. And you look at the calligraphy and painting: the words are vigorous and powerful, and the ink is heroic. This painting is full of vicissitudes of life and fortitude, and full of pride. That's why I said this was made by Miss, and this one was made by you. I don't know if it's right or not. Shen Lingxuan bowed and asked.
"Hahaha, yes, yes, young man, you have good eyesight, it seems that you usually like poetry and painting, right? And the foundation is not shallow? The old man laughed happily.
"Let the old man smile, I usually look good at calligraphy and painting, I'm fine, and I also mess around a few strokes, but it's far from the young lady and the old uncle." Shen Lingxuan said modestly.
"You're humble, you're in good spirits, young man, and I like it. If you don't think I'm shabby here, we will come back often in the future, and we will learn from each other. The old man said happily.
"Where do you dare to be ugly in front of your predecessors." Shen Lingxuan said.
"Hey, you're welcome, since we met is fate, we will often come to play at home in the future. Although my house is dilapidated, it doesn't have that much etiquette. Feel free to be happy. The old man said.
"Thank you Uncle for loving Xiaosheng so much." Shen Lingxuan bent down and bowed.
"Dad, it's time to eat." I don't know when Shi Yun, Shen Wanyun and Jiang Linxi were standing behind them.
"Hehe, good! After eating, I talked happily, I forgot about eating, and I didn't see a few big girls standing in the house. The old man said humorously.
"Dad, we've been in the house for a long time. See that your rejoicing did not bother you. Shiyun said and glanced at Shen Lingxuan quietly.
"The girl has worked hard, I'll help Miss Shiyun set the table!" Shen Lingxuan glanced at Shiyun and said.
Several people worked together to set up the table, chairs and meals.
"A few young people, forgive me for talking too much, I take the liberty to ask: Did you come to this bamboo forest today to play or pass by?" The old man at the dinner table asked how many of them were.
"Oh, yes, we have nothing to do for the past two days, we came out to play. When I walked near this bamboo forest, I suddenly thought, can we go out from this mountain wall? So you found it all the way here? Shen Linglang asked.
"Oh, got a clue?" The old man asked.
"No, it's as strong as a copper wall, and there are no gaps at all." Shen Wanyun said.
"Oh, we've lived here for hundreds of years, and we can't get out, and I think you can only think about it." The old man said.
"Well, uncle, you are an elder, and you read poetry and books extensively, and you are well-informed, haven't you heard of the fact that someone could go out in the past?" Shen Linglang asked.
"Well, there have been people who want to go out, but I haven't heard of anyone who can go out." The old man took a sip of wine and said, "Why do you have to go out, our ancestors have lived here for generations, and with the protection of the emperor, we don't have to worry about eating and drinking." Don't worry about the house, the people are happy to work, and it's not sure how about going out to another world. ”
"Yes, we're just curious." Shen Linglang said.
"However, I heard that there is a hidden person in the Tianlong Mountain Temple who has profound martial arts, and he usually does not come out to meet people, and he has been practicing in hiding all year round, and he is nearly 100 years old. Although he lived in seclusion, he knew everything about the world. If anyone could really go out, maybe only he knew. The old man said.
"Oh? Have you ever met this eminent monk? Shen Lingxuan asked.
"No, ordinary people can't see him." The old man said.
"I can see him." At this time, the old man's little grandson, Zhu'er, spoke.
Everyone looked at him in amazement and asked, "Hehe, if you can see him, then how can you see him?" Everyone asked jokingly.
"I'll let the king lead me there, and I'll see you." Zhu'er said as she ate.
"Then how do you know that the king will be able to meet him when he leads you?" Shen Wanyun asked.
"You are all stupid, the king is the biggest, he must be afraid of the king." Zhu'er said.
One sentence made everyone laugh.
"You're everywhere, don't worry too much, eat quickly." Shiyun said with a smile and disgust.
The meal was finished in a cheerful atmosphere.
After lunch, sit down for a while, and everyone is ready to say goodbye.
Shiyun asked, "Where did you come from, and where do you want to go back?" ”
"We are today at the Tailong Mountain Teahouse." Shen Linglang said.
Hearing everyone's direction of coming, Shiyun said: "If you go back according to the route you said, you will have to take a long detour, and it will be midnight when you return to the Tailong Teahouse." I'll take you down a path, which is relatively close, so that in the evening you will almost reach the teahouse. ”
"Well, well, then there's Miss Lao." Shen Linglang said with a deep sigh.
"Childe is polite, let's go." Saying goodbye to the old man, a few people followed the poem on the road.
This time, they walked directly in the direction of the east. Passing through the bamboo forest, turning around into the mountain, turning left and right, and walking in front of a mountain stream, Shiyun pointed to the mountain stream and said: "After this mountain stream, it will be almost there." ”
"The mountain stream is so wide, how can we get there, is there a bridge?" Shen Wanyun said.
"There really isn't one in this vicinity, and one of them has to go a long way south, and it will take more than an hour. So I've been here every time. Shiyun said.
"The mountain stream is so wide and so deep, how did you get there?" Shen Lingxuan asked suspiciously.
You watched, after speaking, Shiyun turned around, only to see that at this time her footsteps were fast, blurred, like an illusory shadow, the shadow flashed, two flashes, extremely fast, after the flash, several people have not yet reflected, Shiyun has reached the opposite side of the mountain stream.
"Ghost Step?" Except for Jiang Linxi, several people spoke out almost at the same time.
"I've been like this every time. There is no problem with any of you who can cross this stream," Shiyun asked very seriously when she returned to the mountain stream.
"I can pass, I will fly in the sky." Shen Linglang said.
"That's easy. We can take them there. Shiyun said.
"I have no problem taking them, but girl, are you okay, you are a weak woman, I think it is better for me to bring them over one by one." Shen Linglang asked worriedly.
"Hehe, it's okay, I've taken people, I've been used to working at home since I was a child, and I'm a little hard, besides, you also know that people who can do this work are more energetic than ordinary people. So you don't worry, if you really don't worry, then in this case, I'll take Jiang Linxi over first, and you will watch from behind. Shiyun said unconvinced.
When Shen Linglang heard this, he quickly pulled Jiang Linxi behind him, but it didn't hurt Shiyun's face: "You better take my sister Wanyun first." ”
"Good. Come on, Shen Wanyun, put your hand on my shoulder and walk. Saying that, Shi Yun was fast, and saw Shiyun holding Shen Wanyun's waist with her hand, and before Shen Wanyun's exclamation could land, they were already standing on the opposite side of the mountain stream.
When they landed on the opposite side of the mountain stream, Shen Linglang also fell to the ground with him at the same time, Shen Linglang was not at ease, and kept following them closely, in case something happened, he could help him.
Seeing them land safely, Shen Linglang turned around and took Shen Lingxuan and Jiang Linxi with them.
"Ling Xuan, you wait here, I'll send Lin Xi over first. Come on, Lin Xi give me your hand. Saying that, Shen Linglang held Jiang Linxi's hand, grabbed Lin Xi's shoulder with his left hand, and brought Lin Xi into the air, although it was not high, Jiang Linxi was also afraid, she felt her body floating forward. Just when I was in a mixed mood, my feet had already fallen to the ground again. Then she saw that she was already on the other side of the mountain stream.
"Stand up, I'll pick up Ling Xuan." After Shen Linglang finished speaking, he turned around and picked up Shen Lingxuan.
"Okay, this time everyone is here, where are we going?" Shen Linglang asked.
"Follow me." After speaking, a few people followed Shiyun and turned two more corners, came to the intersection and stopped.
"Guys, go straight ahead along this road, come to the end, turn right and turn over the small dirt slope to the tea shop you mentioned." Shiyun said.
"Girl, where are you going?" Shen Linglang asked.
"My house is over here, in the opposite direction from you. So I have to send it here. Shiyun said.
"Where does the girl's family live, why don't we give the girl a ride." Shen Lingxuan stepped forward and said.
"Gongzi Xie, my house is very close, so I don't need to send it." Shiyun said with a smile.
"Girl, my home is in Zhongnan Street in Dragon Emperor City, I work in the Truth Restoration Hall, my name is Shen Lingxuan, if the girl needs my help, go to me. This is my badge, please put it away in case you need it. Saying that, Shen Lingxuan took out a badge from his waist and handed it to Shiyun.
Shiyun took the card: "Thank you, Childe, there will be a period later" After speaking, she turned around and waved away.
"Let's go, second brother, don't look at it, everyone is far away." Shen Wanyun pushed Shen Lingxuan.
