Chapter 15: The Transfer of the Jade Seal
Reading Pavilion 『 』, the full text is free to read.
Er'er's words sounded casual, but in fact I sounded shuddering.
After Huzi and I looked at each other, Huzi pulled a copy out of his backpack and looked at it by the light of the fire. After reading it for a while, I couldn't calm down, so I put the book on my face. After lying like this for a while, he suddenly pulled the book off his face again, then sat up and said, "Second father, what is going on, can you tell me?" ”
It's okay that Huzi didn't ask, but when he asked, the second picker didn't look at us, but lay on the ground and prayed.
Such a prayer is meaningless to us, but it is an extremely sacred thing in Er'er's heart. He lay on the ground and chanted the words, and only he knew what he was saying.
When Huzi and I looked at the situation, we said forget it, let's not ask him. I said, "Forget it, go to sleep." ”
It's still early, where can I sleep! This person is easy to think cranky when he can't sleep, after I close my eyes, my mind is full of the scene when the Yin soldiers were burned, and after thinking about the burning of the Yin soldiers, I think of Tan Fangfang, the girl who was brought home by me and Huzi, I blushed and my heart beat when I think about it, I think about it, and I am upset.
At this time, the laughter of a woman was faintly heard outside. The laughter was far away and seemed to come down from the mountains.
If so, do they live in the mountains?
I sat up, walked to the window, and looked out through the gap, where the wind was much lighter. Faintly, it was foggy again. I couldn't help but curse: "What the hell! ”
I didn't scold, but the wind stopped, I lifted the curtain and shone out the window with a flashlight, and the fog had already begun to build, and it would not be long before the fog would be pressed down from the mountain. There is no doubt about it.
This fog soon filled the entire Black Dragon Valley. As the fog came, so did the woman's laughter. This time, it was not only as simple as surrounding the gate, but also in the backyard below us, there was also a woman's laughter.
Huzi lifted the curtain and shone a flashlight into the courtyard, he tried to find something, but the fog was too big, and this effort was useless. All you can see is the fog.
Huzi then stretched out his shotgun through the window, and he pointed the muzzle of the gun at the ground in the fog, trying to hear the sound and fire.
I said next to me, "Don't shoot, it's useless." ”
Huzi said, "I really want to see what it is." This time I was bold enough to go into the yard. ”
I said, "Hu Junjie, they haven't come out, so let's not do much." When they laugh, let them laugh, and we don't hear them. ”
I pulled the tiger back and pressed the curtains. When we came back, we sat down, took a quick barbecue and chewed it slowly, but we really had nothing to do but eat.
They said they hadn't heard it, but they were laughing in the courtyard, and the sound was very disturbing. We can only hold our temper and try to calm ourselves down.
Huzi said: "Lao Chen, I'm going crazy. Does this keep people from sleeping? I just want to be quiet for a while......"
I interrupted, "Huzi, go and inhale some mist, it will calm you down." ”
Huzi reached the window, lifted the curtain, and suddenly a mist surged. There is the smell of this fruit in this mist, and as long as people smell it, it can calm people down.
Huzi went to take a few puffs, and I also went over to take a few puffs, and the irritability was immediately relieved.
Listening to the laughter of the women again, I have a feeling of indulgence/intention flowers.
I leaned against the wall and said, "Sleep, you can't hear when you fall asleep." ”
Listening to the laughter of these women, it was like listening to a lullaby, and soon fell asleep.
When I woke up, it was dark and it was raining outside. Huzi and I went downstairs to the eaves, where we washed ourselves with the rainwater that flowed down from the eaves, then put on our raincoats and went to the front hall.
At this time, the people in the hall were already busy, chopping wooden sticks with axes. The sticks were bundled up one by one and carried outside.
After Huzi and I came, the brothers here greeted us and shouted Chen Ye and Hu Ye.
After all, they know that we are their meal tickets.
Grandpa Bai and Bai Hui were sitting by the fire and roasting the fire, and when it rained that day, the temperature plummeted, and it was cold and gloomy. After I said hello to Grandpa Bai, Huzi and I went outside, and when we got to the street, we turned right, and when I looked up, I saw that there was already an excavation.
The previously dug passage has collapsed, and due to several days of rain, a large amount of water has penetrated into the mountain through the cracks. Now, at the site of the excavation, clear water seeps out from under the earth and rocks, flows down the road, and converges into the rushing river to the west.
When Huzi and I approached, we saw that the dragon had already dug a few meters into it. However, what was dug up was something similar to mud, and the big disciples of the Earth Dragon pushed it out one cart after another.
There is sand and stones in the mud. The cart was pushing, and the muddy water was dangling in the car.
Huzi muttered: "Lao Chen, how can you dig this!" ”
I said, "I've dug a few meters, and I can still dig it." ”
I saw that the dragon made a passage in the shape of a cylinder with a wooden stick, and when he dug a section forward, he used a wooden stick to weave a section. Thick sticks are used for the bones, thin sticks are used for the frame, and strips of paper are used for filling. The result is like a work of art.
Huzi wanted to go in to see the situation, but was stopped by the big man again.
Huzi said: "This is really not easy! ”
The big man looked at Huzi and smiled, and said, "It's for your own good that you don't let you in." ”
Huzi hummed and said, "I know it's for my good." ”
But anyone can see that Huzi and the big man can't pee in the same pot. Both of them spoke with unconvincing energy.
"That's good." The big man looked at the tiger with disdain, and then bent down to get in.
At this time, the digging is not deep, and we can see the action inside from the outside.
The hole was relatively large, and the dragon and his female disciples were bending down to dig, and the water dripping from it had already drenched them, but they didn't seem to care. It's been digging forward without stopping.
I shouted outside: "Brother Long, this water is very cold, you are going to get sick like this." ”
Only then did the dragon turn around, kneel on the ground, look at me and smile and said, "Don't worry, I'm used to it." ”
A total of 53 meters, it takes about five days to dig through. Then you dig about 10 meters a day. Obviously, it is easier to dig at the beginning, but it is difficult to get inside. After Huzi and I stood outside the entrance of the cave for more than an hour, Hu Junjie came.
When he saw the two of us, he asked me very seriously, "Chen Yuan, why didn't you go hunting?" Everyone is doing manual work, but you can't stop it! ”
I said, "It's raining all the time, and we'll go when the rain stops." ”
"What if it doesn't stop?"
I said, "At one o'clock in the afternoon, no matter whether we stop or not, Huzi and I will go into the mountains to hunt, this is always okay!" ”
Hu Junjie was relieved, he stood in a row with us, bent down and looked at the situation inside the cave, now, the lights have been lit inside, we can take a look.
Hu Junjie said: "Those women laughed all night in the backyard last night, you heard it! Chen Yuan, what the hell do you say that's that! ”
I said, "I'd like to know that too." But if they don't bother us, we don't have to be curious to know so much. ”
Hu Junjie snorted and said, "That's right, if they want to laugh, let them laugh enough." ”
As he was talking, the rain suddenly stopped, and the clouds in the sky opened, and a ray of sunlight shone down from above, forming a pillar of light, which shone under the Bangmao Mountain not far away. It was the seat of the Oolong Temple.
Huzi touched his chin and said, "This is evil! Impartially, it just shines on the Oolong Palace. This is really a treasure of feng shui! ”
Hu Junjie shouted towards the entrance of the cave at this time: "Brother Long, come out and take a look." ”
The dragon bent out of the hole, turned around, laughed and said loudly, "This is a lucky omen!" ”
