Chapter 708: Where there should be
But if it's valuable, Zhang Can originally wanted Old Man Li to send his aunt back to the room and continue to rest, but the old lady shook her head vigorously and said vaguely that she hadn't sat so comfortably for a long time, so let her sit for a while, and raised her hand as she spoke, pointing at Zhang Can, Ye Zi and Topaz, saying that there was a benefactor, and it was really against etiquette to lie down by yourself.
Seeing that the old lady had been able to raise her hand, Old Man Li and Sister-in-law Lotus were naturally grateful again.
Old man Li even ran back to the room, and after a while, he took out a cloth bag, opened the cloth bag that had faded into a pale red sรจ, and several people saw that there was a stack of fragmented banknotes, the largest denomination, two cents, the rest, one cent, or even five cents, most of these small notes, most of the edges have been grinded.
Zhang Can roughly estimated that there might be a total of about a dozen.
Now, the banknotes circulating in the market are basically invisible to such change, but compared with those collectible coins, these money are not valuable.
Old man Li held this stack of tickets, and his old tears were rampant, "Little brother, this is what my wife and I have accumulated in the past few years, I originally wanted to keep it for a little money, but now, I don't need it, little brother, don't be too little, this is the only bit of cash in our family." โ
Zhang Can heard the old man say this, and couldn't help but have a big head, the so-called "pressure money" refers to the copper money that people hold in their mouths after they die, and now not many people do this, but this is just a meaning of the old man, saying that this money is important to him.
Zhang Can believes that these ten yuan are definitely worth one billion or more in his hand.
This gift is too heavy, although it is only a change of ten dollars.
Zhang Can naturally wouldn't accept it, but it was the question in his heart, and he asked him very seriously.
Zhang Can is the great benefactor of Old Man Li and Sister-in-law Li's family, and the question he wants to ask, Sister-in-law Lotus and Old Man Li will naturally not hide it, not to mention that what he asks is something related to the old lady's condition.
"Let's talk about this, we have to start with the legend of our place," Old Man Li has just recovered from a serious illness, although Zhang Can did not make him recover ten out of ten, but that is only relatively speaking, compared to before, even half an hour ago, Old Man Li felt like a different person, and the god was also very good, but he felt a little hungry.
Speaking of the legend of this place, Old Man Li's jฤซng god head is more sufficient, and the key is that this is what the benefactor wants to ask.
"I only heard from my father, it is said that this place, like a place hundreds of kilometers away, is where the gods visited, but the gods lived for a while, so they got tired of it and moved to live elsewhere, because the people here do not respect the gods very much......"
Hundreds of kilometers away from here, there are gods who have lived, and there are strange phenomena, it can't be the stone forest that he and Yang Hao walked with Nado, could it be that this is the location of another colorful divine stone that Yang Hao said in his mouth! Zhang Can's breathing became a little short.
"However, I heard from the elders that in order to punish those who did not respect him, the gods deliberately placed a treasure on Luoxia Mountain here to prevent those who wanted to steal his things."
Zhang Can asked with some curiosity: "How far is this Luoxia Mountain from here, is Luoxia Mountain big?" โ
"Far away is not far, out of the village, less than two kilometers to the north, is the foot of Luoxia Mountain, big but not big, a radius of more than ten kilometers, is the mountain is steep, however, you can find a kind of local people called 'ghost lotus seeds' natural birth medicine, which family has pregnant women, you have to go into the mountains in advance to pick some back, in case of emergency......"
"You know, now if there are good conditions, we will also go to the hospital to give birth, but in the past, and now those of us whose family conditions are not very good, we can only rely on these earthworks handed down by the old people to save our lives."
"However, over the years, there are not a few people who have been on the mountain, not only have they never seen any places where the gods live, but also, after they came back, something happened,......
"My wife, I got this strange disease, that is, a few years ago, I went to Luoxia Mountain, and went to pick 'ghost lotus seeds' for Hu Manzi's daughter, and in hindsight, she came back from picking medicine that day, it was a little strange, and then she seemed to have a cold, and she had a high fever, and she was talking about what she saw in the mountains......"
"At that time, Hu Manzi's daughter gave the old woman five yuan, which was considered the money for the medicine, and the old woman took the five yuan to the town to catch some medicine, and after coming back and taking the medicine, she was better.
"Later, the old woman told me that she had found a place where no one had ever been, and that place, 'ghost lotus seeds' were everywhere, and they were ...... several times."
"Our ancestors have been picking this kind of 'ghost lotus seed' on this mountain for generations, this thing is already scarce, and now even if it is sold at a high price, it may not be able to buy it, if it is like the old woman said, there is such a place, everywhere, it is also a lot of wealth......
Speaking of which, Zhang Can, Ye Zi, and Huang Yu all thought that in the final analysis, it was because of money, people died for money, and birds died for food, which is an unbreakable truth through the ages.
"After the old woman got a little better, she discussed with me to dig up all those 'ghost lotus seeds', even if they were only sold for five yuan, they could be regarded as making a lot of money......
Zhang Can was a little anxious and asked, "Uncle, have you been to that place?" โ
Old man Li nodded, but then shook his head, "I don't know if I've been to that place, that day, the weather was also good, and I was idle at home, so my wife went out with me......"
Huang Yu, who had been silent, interjected, "Uncle, you said that Luoxia Mountain is not big, but the mountain is steep, can it be that Auntie can go up to collect medicine at such an old age?" In this way, Auntie is a person with martial arts! โ
"Martial arts!" Old man Li sighed, "What kind of martial arts does she have, the old woman is from this village, since she was a little girl, she has been circling in the mountains, don't look at your aunt like this now, when she doesn't have this strange disease, it's okay for her to go around the mountains one day." โ
"Oh, it turns out that the road is familiar, but she has been wandering in the mountains for so many years, how can she only find out about that place that no one has ever been to now?" Topaz was very curious, and as soon as he asked, he had to break the casserole and ask to the end.
However, Huang Yu's curiosity is also what Zhang Can and Ye Zi are curious about, but their mouths are not as fast as Huang Yu.
"That's what I don't understand," Old man Li is very patient, all the questions of these three benefactors, it is that there is a question that must be asked, and everything is known, and everything is said.
Old man Li continued: "That day, I followed the old woman, along the marks she left, all the way into the mountain, there are some unclear marks, the old woman also deliberately re-did it, at that time, in my opinion, it was a redundant thing, then I know later, it was all thanks to those re-made marks......"
Huang Yu interjected again: "So, you got lost in Luoxia Mountain? Also, isn't Auntie familiar with the road? The time she went into the mountain alone, she would leave a mark, could she have also lost her way? Besides, Luoxia Mountain is not a total of more than ten square kilometers, even if you get lost, there will be nothing to fear, right? โ
Zhang Can said in his heart, getting lost in the mountains, let alone more than ten square kilometers, encountering some situations, I'm afraid you won't be able to walk out of one square kilometer, although that kind of situation is few, but it is by no means nothing.
Old man Li said this, it must be that they have encountered extraordinary things, things beyond the scope of people's cognition, and they are not unique, they have encountered several such experiences, they must understand it, perhaps, the time in this life will not be enough.
Sure enough, Old Man Li continued: "That time, I was also very strange, I walked and walked, and I felt that the place we walked was completely different from the places I had been to. โ
Huang Yu smiled "poof", "Auntie is a place that I just discovered, you haven't been there, of course you will feel different, it's not strange." โ
Zhang Can was silent at this time, it was useless for him to be anxious, what Huang Yu asked was actually what he wanted to ask, although Huang Yu said that he had been to Xitian Kunlun with him, but the most amazing and dangerous thing was really the most amazing and dangerous thing, she didn't know at all, and she didn't tell her about it.
In fact, there are many things in this world that cannot be viewed only from a scientific perspective, at least, there is no way to explain it with science now.
Old man Li shook his head again, he didn't have any pain in his body now, and he seemed to enjoy shaking his head very much.
"It's not like this, what I saw, how to say that, I can't say it specifically, I can only say it like this, that's not our place in Luoxia Mountain," Old Man Li "um" for a moment, and said: "It's our place that shouldn't have." โ
Zhang Can, Ye Zi, and Huang Yu asked almost in unison: "Isn't it the place where Luoxia Mountain should be?" What kind of place would that be. โ
Old man Li continued to shake his head, "I remember, the day we went, it was in the ninth month of the lunar calendar, most of the weeds and leaves on Luoxia Mountain had withered and yellowed, and it was a crisp autumn ......."
"But that day, we walked for more than four hours along the mark made by the old woman, and it was said that even if we passed through Luoxia Mountain, there should have been a round trip, but when I looked back, I found that we had not gone far at all, but at that time, I did not notice this."
According to the walking speed of ordinary people, more than four hours, it should be more than ten kilometers, which is not a difficult thing, but after walking for more than four hours, I looked back and found that I hadn't walked far, whether I hadn't walked, or I was playing.
"The old woman's mark, left densely, almost a dozen zhang away on the one, I still remember, there is a place, I left a mind, I found that more than ten zhang away between the two markers, we actually have more than half an hour......
