Chapter 490: Hungry
"Life is death, death is life, birth is already dead, so what's the use of you caring so much about the boundary between life and death, once I have never figured out why I was born, both brought me here, but also did not show me the way, let me get lost again and again, lost in the environment, lost in the magic realm, and lost myself at the same time......"
Zhou Xiaolong shook his head and said, "I don't understand what you're saying at all...... But, I think, you're a lot like a ...... person."
The man said, "Appearance is just a shell, it has no meaning...... Okay, I'm not going to tickle you to sleep, I'm going to ......"
Zhou Xiaolong raised his hand and pointed in the direction he came from and said, "I ran all the way from that place......"
The man glanced into the distance, and then nodded at Zhou Xiaolong, as if he had chosen the direction pointed out by Zhou Xiaolong.
The man said thank you, and then, with a big stride, walked away.
Soon, it disappeared into the night, and disappeared......
is really a strange person, but listening to this person's words, Zhou Xiaolong felt as if he had an epiphany......
……
Walking on the mountain road, Zhou Xiaolong picked a few wild fruits, because the food in his bag was gone, and he was hungry.
Zhou Xiaolong ate wild fruits in two bites, quenching his thirst was okay, and it was sour.
My stomach didn't feel full, but I was even hungrier, so it was imperative to find something to eat to fill my belly.
Luckily, at dawn, I walked to what looked like a market.
There are a lot of stalls selling food in the bazaar, but I forgot to bring money in my pocket, I can't steal it if I don't have money, I can't steal it.
Looking around, when he was at a loss, suddenly, Zhou Xiaolong saw bursts of golden light rising from the crown of a big locust tree not far away.
Either there was an aura on the big tree, or there was a treasure hidden under the big tree, so he took a step and walked towards the big locust tree.
This big locust tree is so big that it is difficult for two people to hug the tree, and the canopy is even more luxuriant.
Zhou Xiaolong blinked quickly, recited the mantra of the yin and yang eyes, looked at it with the yin and yang eyes, and soon found that there was indeed some gold buried under the roots of this big tree.
Skillfully stretched out his right hand and pinched his fingers to count, Zhou Xiaolong calculated that there was a clay pot buried in the ground, and there were three gold bars hidden in it.
Many years ago, it was a thief who stole the stolen goods, buried under the big tree, but unfortunately the thief was unlucky, he was caught by the patrol room that night, and then he ate the gun for the crime in prison, this gold has not been known since then, hidden here for more than a hundred years, and the essence of the heaven, earth, sun and moon has long been turned into a whole, therefore, the big locust tree will grow so luxuriantly, and the leaves can emit bursts of golden light.
"Hey, young man, the big stuffed meat buns just out of the pot, one dollar a piece, one bite and one bite of oil, buy a few to eat, it's fragrant, I'll be hungry when I see you?"
The one who spoke was a middle-aged man who bought steamed buns, and he looked very loyal and honest, just a businessman who did his duty to do small business.
The man who bought the meat buns was in front of the big locust tree, and set up a small stall with a cage drawer on it, and the cage drawer was full of hot big meat buns.
Because he opened the Yin and Yang Eyes just now, all Zhou Xiaolong saw was the aura emitted by the locust tree, so he didn't notice that there was a person buying buns here.
Reminded by the man, he glanced at the big meat bun, and his stomach immediately gurgled uncontrollably, and even the people who sold the buns heard this sound.
Zhou Xiaolong swallowed his saliva for a long time, he was indeed very hungry and wanted to eat a bun, but he had no money in his pocket, so he could only watch dryly, while licking his lips.
This man who sells steamed buns is really a kind person, and from the clothes of this young man, he can already see that he should not have any money on him, like a down-and-out little Taoist, so he pinched two buns and stuffed them into Zhou Xiaolong's hands, and said: "Eat two cushions first, you're welcome, I don't want your money." ”
How could Zhou Xiaolong not know this, he didn't want to take other people's things.
However, if you don't eat this bun, I'm afraid you'll be hungry all day, there is still a long way to go, although two buns are not much, if you want to eat enough, ten buns plus a bowl of white rice porridge is about the same, but, after all, people are also a small business.
"Uncle, thank you, but I can't eat your buns for nothing, I'll tell you something, believe it or not......"
"Young man, what's the matter?"
Zhou Xiaolong looked at the kind-hearted man who bought the buns, and made sure that there were no outsiders eavesdropping around, so he whispered to him: "Tonight, that is, around eight o'clock in the night, you prepare a shovel, right under your feet, use a shovel to cut the soil, you must take into account in all directions, that is, three times in the front, three times in the back, three times in the left shovel, three times in the right shovel, in order, remember not to hurt the roots of the tree, otherwise you will alarm the aura of the four directions, you will not gain, when you dig to about three feet deep, you will find a crockpot, There is some gold and silver hidden in it, but after all, it has been too long, and many objects have rotted, but there are three gold bars in the crockpot that will not be damaged, remember, you can only take one of the gold bars, and then put the crockpot back in its place, fill the soil with it, and don't be greedy to take more, if you do what I say, keep you and make a small fortune, do you understand? ”
"What...... What the...... Are you talking to me? The uncle who sold steamed buns widened his eyes, thinking that the mysterious young man opposite him was telling him a story about fasting.
Zhou Xiaolong smiled and said, "Uncle, don't look at me like this, I'm not a god, I broke some chances, it's the fate that you and I met, and even if I paid for your buns, it doesn't matter if I believe it or not, even if I lied to you, you just dug a pit under this tree and wasted some energy." ”
Some people may ask, Zhou Xiaolong is so poor now that he is called a jingle bell, since he found that there are gold bars hidden under the tree, why don't he quietly take possession of the gold bars himself?
As a disciple of Xuanmen, no matter how strong the means of Feng Shui are, once greed appears, it will be against the mysteries of heaven and earth, and the enemy of the righteous qi, and will be condemned by heaven afterwards.
Therefore, as an orthodox Xuanmen disciple, Zhou Xiaolong, even when he was penniless and extremely embarrassed, he did not dare to take this risk and use the means of Xuanmen to discover treasures for himself to enjoy.
To say that the steamed buns made by the uncle taste really good, pork and green onions, small grinding sesame oil and meat filling, take a bite, full of fragrant, if you have money in the future, you really have to eat a good meal.
After eating two steamed buns, Zhou Xiaolong's heart was a lot more steady, and he continued to wander around the market, but it didn't take long for him to feel that there were a pair of eyes staring at him all the time, and he didn't bother to look back.
