Chapter 112 Old Dao
The morning after the letter was delivered, the Li family welcomed an unexpected guest. Looking at the old Dao who was sitting in the hall in a grand manner, Li Xiaonuan only felt that happiness came too suddenly.
"Old man, when are you coming back? Didn't you say that you were going to go for the 10th, and today is only the 9th? Li Xiaonuan was a little incoherent.
Lao Dao stroked his beard, looked at Li Xiaonuan with disgust, and said dissatisfiedly: "What, when will I come back, Lao Dao, you have to decide?" ”
Li Xiaonuan was speechless, this is not what Zhao Wangchuan said to Xiaogang in person last time.
"Old man, Xiao Nuan didn't mean that, really. Xiao Nuan just didn't expect the old man to come to the door in person, so he was a little surprised. ”
Lao Dao squinted at Li Xiaonuan, and then reluctantly spoke: "If it weren't for your good fortune, Lao Dao wouldn't have come to the door in person." Okay, so let's talk about those two books. ”
Li Xiaonuan replied anxiously: "Old man, please wait a moment, I'll go and get the book." After speaking, Li Xiaonuan hurriedly walked back to the house and took out the two books in the brocade box.
Lao Dao took the two books, first looked back and forth, and after confirming that they were really the books he left back then, he carefully flipped through the books with great cherishment. But turning over and over, the old man became angry.
"These eight lambs have to rub even the title page, and I don't know if they can understand it." After scolding, Lao Dao carefully put down the book, took out a pile of paper from a black log box on the left hand side, and handed it to Li Xiaonuan.
Li Xiaonuan took it and took a look and found that it was a general navigation record with graphic explanations. She flipped through a few pictures at random, and although the drawings were rough, there was no problem with the accuracy, which did not affect the reading of the pictures.
"Old man, thank you for helping Xiao Nuan. Xiao Nuan really doesn't know how to thank you. Otherwise, Xiao Nuan will kowtow to you a few times. When the words fell, Li Xiaonuan left his seat neatly, knelt on the ground, and really kowtowed to Lao Dao a few times.
The old way and the old god are here, let Li Xiaonuan kowtow. In his opinion, this was the way it should be. After Li Xiaonuan finished knocking, he said casually: "I generally don't accept people to bow down, except for my disciples." Now that you have knelt down with me, did you want to beat me in vain? ”
Li Xiaonuan was stunned, not knowing how to answer. It stands to reason that Lao Dao should know that there is absolutely no possibility between her and Zhao Wangchuan. However, is he still saying that today, is it a joke?
"Old man, please stop laughing. I'm not expressing my gratitude. Since the old man knows everything, he should understand that you have saved the lives of our whole people by doing this. Li Xiaonuan said.
Lao Dao snorted coldly and said lazily: "I'm not joking. If my disciple hadn't asked me to help you, I would have been in trouble with you just because you had printed my book to others. ”
Li Xiaonuan was completely speechless, and it was a little difficult to interface. After Lao Dao drank two sips of honeysuckle tea, he spoke again: "What, do you think my apprentice is not worthy of you?" ”
Li Xiaonuan rolled her eyes and had a new understanding of this old way of not doing business. As a cultivator, I jumped around all day and went to sea for several years. Forget it, it's all about missionary work. However, isn't it a bit too much to care about men and women now?
"Thank you, old man, for your kindness. Xiao Nuan, I am a vulgar village girl, I don't know anything except farming, I really don't deserve the brother of the Zhao family. Besides, the conditions of the Zhao family's brother are really not right with our family. You'd better find someone else. Li Xiaonuan said.
Lao Dao still glanced at Li Xiaonuan, and said as a matter of course: "That's right, you really don't deserve it." Since you are so self-aware, Lao Dao will not embarrass you. Just tell the old way, what's the use of the peanut one? ”
Li Xiaonuan sat upright, ignored Lao Dao's unbeaten appearance, and said: "Peanuts, also called falling peanuts." As the name suggests, it is a fruit that grows after flowering, when the root system is rooted in the soil. ”
"Peanuts have many uses, in addition to eating them directly, they can also be used to extract oil. The way to eat peanuts is even more diverse. You can eat it raw, stir-fried..."
Lao Dao listened to Li Xiaonuan talk about how to eat a bunch of peanuts and the benefits of eating peanuts. In the end, the concern was: "You mean that these peanuts can be used to extract oil, just like soybeans." Is that right? ”
Li Xiaonuan nodded and returned: "Yes, and the oil yield of peanuts is much higher than that of soybeans." In addition, the oil from fried peanuts is very mellow and fragrant, unlike soybean oil, which always has a beany smell. ”
Lao Dao Twist nodded seriously, "Oh" and asked: "How much higher is the oil yield of peanuts than soybeans?" ”
Li Xiaonuan replied: "Let's take an analogy." If a pound of soybeans can produce one or two five oil, then a pound of peanuts can produce three or two eight oil. ”
Lao Dao rarely showed a surprised look, and asked incredibly: "Is there really such a high oil yield?" ”
Li Xiaonuan nodded affirmatively and said, "Of course it's true." However, it also depends on the equipment for oil extraction. Otherwise, no matter how good the peanuts are, they can't squeeze out the oil. ”
The old man nodded knowingly, and continued to ask, "Have you ever seen what a peanut pole looks like?" Or are you from a place where peanuts are available? ”
Li Xiaonuan looked at Lao Dao in astonishment, a little unsure of the meaning of his words. Lao Dao pursed his lips and directly gave Li Xiaonuan the last blow.
"You're right, I know you're not one of us. No, I should say that your soul is not ours anymore. Say, what do you have that we don't have? ”
Li Xiaonuan felt his scalp tingle. I am afraid of King Jing, because I am afraid that I will be burned to death as a monster, and then my family will be affected. And this old way, who can see through her life experience, how can it not be frightening. It is fear that is released from the depths of the soul.
Lao Dao saw that Li Xiaonuan was a little distracted, his face was pale, and the corners of his lips trembled slightly, so he said angrily: "Hmph, why are you so unproductive." No matter where the soul comes from, as long as it doesn't violate the Heavenly Dao, naturally no one will embarrass you. Besides, you are destined by heaven, and others can't control it. Look at what you are, you really don't deserve to be my apprentice. ”
Li Xiaonuan pursed her lips tightly, even if Lao Dao said so, she didn't dare to relax her tense body. Seeing this, Lao Dao couldn't help but sigh and said: "Don't be afraid, Lao Dao, I am not the capable man who slays demons and destroys demons." Looking at the world of the Qi and Song Dynasties, except for the Taishi Ancestor of our master, that is, I have the ability to see people. ”
"However, it's not a good thing to be able to look at people, because in a situation like yours, it's all arranged by heaven. If it is God's will, it should turn a blind eye to you. If there is a crooked heart and a crooked desire to go against the sky, it will eventually be punished by heaven. So, don't worry, Lao Dao still wants to live a few more years. ”
Li Xiaonuan asked unpromisedly: "Is this true old man?" The voice was a little ethereal and trembling.
The old man asked angrily: "Don't I look like a good person?" Look at your unproductive appearance, I really don't know how to survive in this world in the future. ”
Li Xiaonuan was shocked. Yes, with this ability, how can you survive. First at King Jing's, he fainted very uselessly. And then there is the old way, just a few words, it makes her confused. It's really useless. (To be continued.) )
