Chapter 6: Urging the Return (II)
"I have a general understanding of your brother's illness, this disease is caused by less than a month, and the mermaid bead is not a panacea, and it can't cure your brother. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Guan Yiyi pinched a transparent bead in his fingertips, looked at the sun above his head, and could see that the merman inside the bead seemed to be swimming.
"Miss Guan, don't be joking, my brother is still waiting for me to go back at home, so I will only borrow it for half a year, and I will definitely return the beads to Miss Guan after half a year."
Tang Shi Chongdu wanted to kneel down for the person in front of him, and what he said on the avenue earlier was that there was no medicine to delay his younger brother's condition, but he followed them back stupidly.
"Saying that this bead is useless, it's useless, why don't you believe me."
You have to be believed, there is no reason, how easy it is to believe.
"I've asked people to find the Soul Nourishing Grass, this grass grows in the swamps, it is extremely difficult to find, you stay here for a few days, and when you find it, go back and save your brother."
There is a forest that stretches for thousands of miles around the Northern Jin Dynasty, there are a lot of fierce beasts in it, and there is a large black swamp, as long as one of them is encountered there, few people can come out alive, but although this forest has killed many people, there will still be many people who go in, just to find the treasures inside.
"Is that true?"
"Nature is true, when have I ever lied to someone."
Who is the person who just lied to me that there is no medicine to delay Xiaoyi's condition?
"Then I'll thank Miss Guan here." Naturally, what he thought in his heart could not be said, Tang Shichong bowed to Guan Yi one by one, and his voice trembled with excitement.
"Don't rush to say thank you, do you know what you need to get something from me?"
"Miss Guan, don't worry about the remuneration, I have already asked my father to send the silver taels, and it will be delivered to Dingcheng in the near future."
"What I have is the silver tael, I just want to see what else you can take to impress me beyond the silver tael."
"What's Miss Guan's like? I decided to find it for the young lady, even if it was on the knife mountain and down the sea of fire. ”
"Don't talk so seriously, I'm not a man-eating devil, I usually like to listen to stories, I don't know how much ink is in Tang Gongzi's stomach, if Tang Gongzi's story can move me, this soul-nourishing grass, just take it away."
Hearing Guan Yiyi's words, Tang Shichong couldn't help but quiet down, he had heard a lot of stories since he was a child, and he told his younger brother more than a few, but this time it was about his younger brother's life, "In this way, let's go and prepare for one night first, and tell the story to Miss Guan tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow, okay?" ”
"Okay, you can prepare for as long as you want, I have time, Qingqing, go and prepare a room for Tang Gongzi."
……
"Qingqing, are breakfast ready? I'm dying of hunger. ”
"Zong Gongzi, have all the cooks of the Zong family gone? Why do you come to Miss every day to eat? ”
"Hey, other people's things are always better than their own things, I don't understand this, Qingqing, you just listen to me to go to Qingming Temple to meditate for two years, Dark One has learned a lot after staying there for two years."
"Can you two not quarrel as soon as we meet? Do you want to eat? If you don't eat it, I'll let people withdraw. ”
Zong Jiming came a little late this morning, and she started to rinse her mouth after eating before he entered the door.
"Don't mind, I'm dying of hunger, what have the cooks done today? Why does it smell so good? ”
"What did you do last night, why did you come so late today, you have to be one step late, but you don't have your share."
Guan Yi served him porridge one by one, and saw that his crumpled coat was still the same as the one he wore yesterday.
"Xingling is too dangerous, I studied the map all night to find a few roads, just asked Dark Nine to rush over to deliver a letter to Guan Yi and them, this is not coming over immediately, fortunately I ran fast, otherwise I wouldn't be able to eat with you."
"Okay, you finish this bowl of porridge and go to sleep in the wing, don't wait for you to fall asleep again."
Accompanying Guan Yiyi to eat is what Zong Jiming has been doing, and he has never stopped for several years, looking at the normal appearance of the two, Tang Shichong held the bowl and didn't know whether to open his mouth, so he had to continue to take a piece of pastry and stuff it into his mouth.
After Zong Jiming went to make up for sleep, Guan Yiyi and Tang Shichong sat in the courtyard, and Qingqing continued to do his work after making tea for the two.
"Tang Gongzi is ready?"
-- I wanted to hide this thing until I died, and now I am happy to tell you.
When I was a child, I was playful, and I liked to carry my father and mother to a cave in the back mountain to play.
The south lacks everything, except for the mountains and trees, I grew up in the company of those mountains and trees, especially the back mountains of my family, if it were not for the gold diggers in recent years who said that there are gold mines in the back mountains, my father would not have gone to open the mountains.
I begged my father for a long time, but I was a small person, and I was locked in the room by my father for several months, it was very embarrassing to say, I cried for three days, my mother felt sorry for me, but she couldn't let me go out, those gold diggers were opening the mountain, and from time to time there would be mud and rocks falling, which was very dangerous.
Within a few months, however, the prospectors fled from the wilderness, hoe in hand, and baskets on their backs, faster than the wild boars in the mountains.
My father also went home with a pale face, and as soon as he got home, he began to clean up, and my mother asked what happened, but my father didn't say anything, and ran to my room and pulled my mother and me out of the house, and I took advantage of my father's nervousness to break free of his hand and ran to the back mountain.
My father and mother shouted at me behind me, I didn't dare to look back, for fear of seeing the tears on my father's face, I wanted to go to the back mountain to confirm one thing, one thing that had worried me for months.
When I was six years old, I escaped my father's eyes and ran to the back mountain, in fact, there is nothing fun there, but I don't know how many mountains I have climbed since I was a child, but I have a different feeling for this mountain.
Halfway up the mountain, I was going to sit down and rest, but at the moment I just sat down, the mountain suddenly shook for a while, and my first thought was that it was a landslide, and I took a big stride down the mountain, but after just two steps, I fell into a hole in the ground.
I don't know how long I was unconscious, and when I woke up, I found myself lying in a snake nest, so scared that I almost peed my pants, thanks to my frequent love of running into the mountains, I would always have some snake and insect protection powder, and after sprinkling some medicine powder around me, those snakes did not dare to come to my side again.
When I took a closer look, I found that these snakes were not of the same species, the bamboo leaf green and red bamboo snake Taipan snake blood anacond, all of them are extremely poisonous, and they can die if they are bitten.
At that time, the sun was still hanging in the sky, it should be noon, and summer was the season of snakes, and I had only one thought in my heart at that time, if my body was found, I was afraid that it would be terrible.
Thinking of this, I didn't even dare to cry, the temperature was very high at that time, and the poisonous snakes were weak, and I wanted to climb out of the hole, but the hole was too high, and I was wearing a thin shirt, and I only had a belt of trousers to use.
Just as I was scratching my ears and cheeks, there was a burst of laughter in the hole, the hole was very large, there were more poisonous snakes on the ground than I could count, I was too nervous to look closely at the hole, and when the laughter appeared, I was really scared to pee my pants.
Then came the sound of footsteps, and miraculously when they heard the footsteps, the snakes all retreated to the side, as if avoiding the sound like snakes and scorpions.
"How did you get in?"
The voice was a little ethereal, it was clear that someone else was in front of me, but the sound seemed to come from beyond the sky.
"What? Afraid of me? ”
Seeing that I didn't speak, the man squatted down, and I saw that his face was beautiful, and it was not so terrible, so I wiped away my tears, raised my head and asked him, "Can you take me out?" ”
I don't know why the man laughed when he heard me, and then patted me on the face and said, "Little brother, do you know that no one who has entered my snake cave will get out alive." ”
"Who are you?"
"I'm going to eat your monster, I heard that the little boy in the mortal world is the best, with fine skin and tender meat, and you don't even have to spit out the bones."
"Are all youkai as good-looking as you?"
At that time, I was so frightened that I didn't even know what I was saying, when I saw the man suddenly kneel on the ground and cover his heart, and let out a low roar from his mouth.
Two silver-white horns grew on his head inexplicably, and his body was gradually elongated, and I saw that he was shivering all over, and his face was covered with a layer of frost, thinking that he was cold, so I held him in my arms and warmed him.
But it was summer at that time, and how could there be a cold and shivering man, who saw that his hands had turned into eagle talons, and then grabbed me and threw me out of the cave, and the hole was also hidden by his suddenly swollen body.
The man's voice came from inside the cave and told me to go, but I was also scared, so I ran home without caring about anything.
I didn't dare to tell my father and mother about this, and when I went again the next day, I saw that the man was standing halfway up the mountain looking at me, I ran up to wrap him, and asked him if he still felt cold, but the man smiled and asked me if I was afraid that he would eat me, I shook my head, in fact, I didn't have the bottom of my own heart at that time, but out of curiosity, I often ran to the back mountain to find him.
So when the gold diggers appeared, I was afraid that the secret of the back mountain would be discovered by them, so I kept resisting my father, and later my father told me that he and the gold diggers dug a snake nest that day when they were digging the mountain, and there were too many snakes in the snake nest, and one of the gold diggers had no time to escape, and died in Huangquan without two breaths.
"What about the man?"
"I went to the back mountain to look for it, there is a deeper cave in the snake cave, when I went in, there was no one in it, but there was a layer of soft shell similar to the snake molt, but this soft shell is more than a hundred times larger than the giant snake in the mountain, thinking of the books I read before, I think he has soared."
"A serpent spirit who has become a god? You still have his green dragon robe, right? ”
"What do you leave that thing for?" Tang Shichong glanced at Guan one by one, very puzzled.
"This thing is good, you see that snake has become an immortal, then use his green dragon clothes to cook soup and drink, we can also fly."
"Tang Gongzi, don't listen to her nonsense," the door of the wing room was opened, Zong Jiming changed into a new robe and walked in front of Guan Yiyi, pinched her little face and said, "Are you dreaming of immortals again?" ”
"Gou You said that the peaches in the Nine Heavens Realm are delicious, I want to try them."
Guan Yi, who was pinched in the face, spit out the words a little unclear, and Tang Shichong, who was sitting on the side, accidentally laughed out loud after hearing it.
Zong Jiming glared at him and said, "Tang Gongzi must not be able to wait, this medicine is not something that can be found in a day or two, this is about to enter summer, and the seedlings in the Guan family's farmland have not been planted yet......"
"No, no, no, I'm not good at this thing, and I'm busy, so Zong Gongzi should ask another master."
Tang Shichong got up and left, not daring to stay for a moment, and saw that the cuckoo in the corridor of the courtyard was just open, and the call of the Zigui bird was in his ears.
It's better to go back, it's better to go back......
