Growth Volume Chapter 23: Travels Outside the City (2)
Leng Mian exclaimed, "Teacher, why are there all terrible creatures here, it's so scary!"
"It's normal, it's good if you get used to it. β
"Normal?
The teacher faced across the river and pointed to a large mountain in front of him and said, "Do you know what that is?"
Leng Mian thought about it for a while, and said, "Mountain, what's wrong?"
"It's not an ordinary mountain, it has a name, it's called 'Wing Mountain', this Wing Mountain, once the legendary 'Mountain and Sea Realm'. β
"Mountains and seas?" Leng Mian scratched his head, saying that he had never heard of it.
"It's normal that you don't know, after all, it's a very secret legend. "The teacher looked at the empty mountain in front of the mountain, and orally told the vague legend, "According to legend, in this world, there has always been a strange area that human beings have not set foot in, and that kind of area is called the mountain and sea realm, the mountain and sea realm, full of strange mountains and valleys, the scenery of the mysterious cave and the vast lake, the strange rocks, strange trees and strange phenomena are countless, and the birds and beasts are also different, which is not ordinary. β
"Oh, is that so?"
"In addition, usually in the territory of mountains and seas, there will be a lot of Yao Cao Ling ginseng, and those are all high-grade medicinal materials. β
"In addition to the Wing Mountain here, are there any other mountains and seas?"
"Yes, and it's a mountain and sea realm that is different from Yishan, but it's generally difficult to find this kind of place, and you can only find it by relying on the scroll "Mountain and Sea Totem" during the flood period. β
"The totem of mountains and seas is something like a map, right? β
"Uh-huh, but now there are only mutilated ones, and the complete mountain and sea totems, no one should have seen them. β
"Really?"
"Okay, don't gossip too much, I'm out to play today, can't I have fun?"
Leng Mian looked at the snake in the river again, and sighed with a gray face: "Who can have fun in this situation." β
At this time, I heard Lu Da shouting happily: "Wow, I caught a snake!"
"Wow, that's good! I'll catch one too. Bizi exclaimed.
Leng Mian was stunned on the side, and then said incomprehensibly: "In my opinion, those two are really wonderful!"
But soon, Leng Mian also tried to try it to see how it felt, at this time, everyone was very noisy, only Aojie sat alone on the big rock on the shore and read quietly, in addition, Yuzi next to him was also there to stare at him for a long time, finally, Youzi couldn't help but ask: "Aojie, everyone is having a good time, can you stop reading today?"
"Why?"
"It's a lot of fun to play with everyone. Tomoko said with a smile.
"I don't think I'd have any fun throwing a pole there with those guys, I'd rather be here in quiet than that. β
"Really, what kind of book are you reading?"
"The third foundation of martial arts. β
"Is it basic in martial arts? But Aojie, you are already very strong, why do you still need to read such a book. β
"No, this book is different, although I don't know who the author is, but it is very well written. β
"Then you said it's all right, I guess it's really good, hehe, in fact, I heard before that it is very difficult to communicate with Aojie, but when I talked to you today, I found that you are actually quite kind. Tomoko said with a smile.
"No, they're not lying, it's just that I'm going to ignore you for another reason. β
"Oh? β
"Because you make me feel special, though I don't know what it is. β
Tomoko was stunned, and said with a smile: "What's not special, I'm not the same as you!"
"Really?" Aojie looked at Tomoko, "Sure enough, I can't be friends with people like you, but I really don't like people like you. β
"Aojie, why are you talking like this, we are friends in the first place. β
"I think you may have misunderstood, we just know each other, I don't see you as a friend, and there is no need to treat you as a friend. β
"Oh, don't you think of me as a friend? It's hurtful to talk like that, but even if you are a friend. Tomoko smiled after saying that.
"Whatever you want, as long as you don't get in my way. β
"Look at you, you're always cold, how can you do that, or learn from me how to talk to people with a smile. Tomoko said as she dangled in front of him.
"I'm not interested. β
"Yes, it seems that you have never been cared for since you were a child. β
"Care, heh, who cares about this kind of thing. β
Tomoko sat down, looking at the noisy cold face, his eyes were erratic, his face looked very comfortable, and he moved his mouth slightly: "Don't you care?" Anyway, I care a lot, so, I have a good friend, although he is very evil, but he is very good to friends, once, I was injured climbing a tree, fell my leg, he carried me to find the medicine shop, that day, it was terrible, not only did there not open a few medicine shops, but it also rained heavily, so he carried me on his back for a long time, I have forgotten how long I fainted, in short, it was a long time, and when I woke up, he was always waiting by my side, even if it was just quietly asleep. β
"It's a great story, but I'm a cold-blooded monster by nature, and you can't change me. β
"Whatever you think, it's just that I think it's a pleasure to meet you!"
"Happy, isn't it? I can't taste it, butβ"
"But what?"
"It should be as exciting as reading a book. β
Tomoko looked at him, squinted and said, "Of course!"
Tomoko smiled happily at Aojie, like a child, should he be naΓ―ve, or optimistic?
The sun sets on the west mountain, the swallow bird returns to the nest, the hour is approaching dusk, today's play, it is almost over, they take the fishing rod, they leave the winged mountain, back to the city.
About a little later, they could already see the Martial Arts Hall, at this time, at the door of the Martial Arts Hall, there was a carriage parked, on the carriage, there was an old man in a sixtieth armor, looking at his simple clothes, like an inferior person, but if he was just an inferior groom, then why was the carriage he sat in very luxurious?
Everything remains to be solved.
It wasn't until they reached the gate that the old man jumped out of the car, bowed to one of them, and said, "Master Aojie, the master wants to see you." β
"Okay, got it. After Aojie said to him, he faced the teacher, "Teacher, I have to go out tonight, and I will be back early tomorrow morning." β
"Well, go ahead. β
The teacher agreed, and the carriage sped off into the distance and disappeared around a corner.
