Chapter 63: The Secret of Daughter Red
The crazy old man shook the gourd in his hand, poured the last drop of wine into his mouth, sipped the last drop of wine with a little contemplation, half a sound, and said, "Good wine." ”
I fainted, and I was about to stand up and ask what was wrong with this guy, when the crazy old man beckoned to me, as if to tell me that the young man should not be impetuous, and listen to me.
The mad old man was facing west, and the sky was blue in the distance, and the clouds were low. It's not just the unicorn fairy, it's full of summer feelings.
Finally, the mad old man spoke: "Forty years ago, the scenery here was better than it is now. ”
As soon as I heard it, forty years ago, it seemed that I was going to talk about the main event, so I hurried to listen to the crazy old man.
The crazy old man continued: "It's just that no matter how good the scenery is, it can't stop those who come from Tianzhu." ”
Tianzhu? Isn't that India? It is said that I also met Indians in the underground palace before. It's just that they are all controlled by black belly and red eyes.
I didn't dare to interrupt the crazy old man, for fear that he would be angry and not say anything.
Crazy Old continued: "Our child was just born, and it was a boy, a very cute child. ”
The mad old man paused, but I didn't dare interrupt him.
He continued: "I have been practicing martial arts in Shaolin Temple for many years, so naturally I don't believe in the legend of the elixir of immortality. I told all the folks, including my wife, but they didn't believe me. At this point, the crazy old man's eyes were full of anger and remorse.
Suddenly, the crazy old man's tone raised a height: "I don't know why! My wife listened to me very much before, I don't know why this elixir is so tempting to them, if a person is immortal, will he live happily? If you watch your beloved grow old but you are still young, are you really happy? "The crazy old man was obviously out of control, but I didn't know how to comfort him.
He shook his head, soothed his emotions and said, "That's it, all the people in Balipu have eaten the so-called elixir of immortality, and the next day, everyone's eyes won't blink." ”
The crazy old man thought for a moment and added, "Except for me, and my newborn child. ”
I continued to listen to him, taking every word and every sentence to heart.
The crazy old man said: "I felt that something was wrong, and I began to heal my wife's wounds, but no matter how I gave her anger and poisoned her, I couldn't force the poison of the pill out. ”
Speaking of this, I felt that the mood of the crazy old began to fluctuate again, and I hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Senior, look away." ”
The crazy old man looked at me and smiled, as if he was laughing at me for not having a backache when I stood and talked, and he continued: "On the third day when I was healing my wife, I saw that the poison was about to be forced out, and as a result..." You can imagine his mood at this time, seeing the person he loves the most die without listening to his advice, is he remorse or ruthless?
The crazy old man raised his head slightly, as if he had adapted to the sad mood, and continued to himself: "It may be that my internal force prompted the outbreak of toxicity, and my wife became an out-and-out madman in an instant, she bit the table, the stool, and even our son. And the neighbors are all in such a sluggish state, I can't stop her, she rushed out, the neighbors were all detonated by her poison, the whole village became a mess, no place is complete, all the teeth marks they have bitten, I held my child, desperately ran outside, but I didn't expect that I was bitten by my child. The toxin of this elixir can even control the mind of a baby, I felt a very strange force in my body running back and forth in my body, I became extremely excited, I remember that I threw my child out, I still remember that everyone in Balipu died in the end, I remember that when I was waiting for death at the west gate of Balipu alone, an old Taoist like a monkey came, saw that I was dying, sealed my acupoint, and then gave me a pill. By the time I woke up, I didn't have that strange power in my body, but all the people in the village were dead. ”
The crazy old man suddenly stopped talking, and his eyes looked at me fiercely, and for a moment he looked me creepy.
I said, "What's the matter, senior. ”
The crazy old man suddenly shouted, "Why? Why do you want to save me? What's the point of leaving me alone in the world? As he spoke, he began to shake my shoulder, and I subconsciously stayed away from him for fear of being bitten by him.
Sure enough, there are several meaningful clues, the first is that the group of strange people are Tianzhu people, and this Tianzhu people may also have something to do with the desert palace, and the other clue is the same old Taoist as the monkey, although I don't know if this old Taoist is still alive, but what is certain is that this old Taoist knows why they are crazy and has a way to cure it.
I continued to approach the mad old man, who knew that the crazy old man had already fallen asleep and stopped talking about his past.
Your sister, where's the main quest?
This crazy old man fell asleep straight after telling his story, and didn't leave me a task, I had to wake him up, and there was only one way to wake him up.
I came to the wine shop again, this time to try a different kind of wine, the best daughter red, a pot!
This high-grade daughter red is a lot more expensive than that loose wine, I hope there will be a harvest.
After the wine, I took my first-class daughter Hong around the crazy old man, and sure enough, the crazy old man in his sleep immediately sat up from the state of paralysis, closed his eyes and said to himself: "The more women make wine and wine like rain, and they don't regive birth to men and women." My daughter's family lives in the east of East Lake, and the spring drips pearl red at night! Could this be the legendary daughter Red? ”
To be honest, I admire this crazy old man very much, who can write and martial arts, put it forty years ago, wouldn't that be a playboy that everyone loves?
No, he's a monk.
Seeing that he snatched my daughter Hong, he said while drinking wine: "Good wine, good wine, it is said that my daughter red is getting more and more expensive in Balizhuang, you go and ask why my daughter red is so expensive?" ”
"Received the task, why is it so expensive for women." I finally received the main quest, but I didn't expect to buy a drink and bring in the main quest.
Since the mission description is to ask why my daughter Hong is so expensive, it must be to ask the wine vendor, without further ado, whip up, and tell your teammates your thoughts by the way.
Walk to the vendor's liquor shop.
"Oh, you're here, let's see what you want to drink."
"Why is your daughter red so expensive?" I simply got straight to the point and smashed Huanglong.
Seeing the hawker's embarrassed look, I immediately became furious, slapped the vendor's table and shouted, "Say! ”
The hawker was taken aback, and said in a hurry: "Daughter red is the signature wine of the small shop, and it is prepared for six places: clear, fragrant, mellow, soft, cotton, and cool, but since three years ago, we have a bully in Balipu, and every year he takes a few Tan daughter red from me, resulting in the scarcity of my daughter red here, and the price is naturally high..."
"How can such a thing happen? Where are the bullies? ”
"This, the small ones don't dare to say, the small ones still have to do business, it's objective."
I slapped the table again! shouted: "All are recruited!" ”
The peddler saw that I was not a good master, and told me what had happened.
"Three years ago, a strong man with several brothers came to Balipu to take a daughter-in-law, the wedding day is to drink my daughter red here, it turned out that my daughter red is very delicious, so every three or five come to me to take, at the beginning I also gave a few times of money, and finally became credit, and then every time I went to ask for an account was beaten by him, and then also intensified to come to me to take the daughter red, and finally I simply brewed only a few Tan daughter red every year, by the way, the price was raised, anyway, it was robbed, it is better to brew less..."
I was furious and said, "How can this be? And such people? Tell me who this person is. ”
I saw that the peddler looked east and west, and found that there was no broken mouth, so he said to me: "That person's name is Erhu, he is the head of the snake, and he lives in the easternmost family, and the first one in the south from the east gate of Balipu is their family, and he is the younger brother of the king of the mountain next door, and ordinary people can't afford to mess with him." ”
I snorted angrily and said, "Hmph, what I hate the most is a bully, presumably that woman was also forcibly married by him, right?" ”
"Well, I didn't know this little bit, anyway, that woman is charming and charming, and she shouldn't look down on Erhu." The peddler said secretly.
Received the task of "educating the two tigers"
