Chapter 202: The Quartet Comes to Help
After a moment, as if he had remembered something, he rushed into the room, took the key from the splint under the bed, and opened the bedside table.
The black iron box with patterns lay quietly in place.
Hope was shattered again, and Father Wen couldn't bear it and sat on the ground, covering his face and crying.
But I was shouting in my heart: A-Ning, A-Ning, where have you been? Why not come back? Is something wrong?
If yes, you can give your father a dream......... Daddy avenges you! Daddy avenges you!
This night is destined to be another sleepless night.
Six days have passed in a blink of an eye, and in the world of mountains and seas, Wen Shu, who has gone through the initial difficulties, has slowly become like a fish in water.
During the day, she took the fat stealing bird up the mountain to dig traps, looked for oak trees along the way, and looked at the moon and the sky at night, thinking about relatives and friends in another world.
After six days, Taimuro Mountain was basically touched by her, during which she not only found wild ginger as she wished, but also luckily encountered the oak wood.
The oak is not so much a tree as a shrub, its body is not high, like the leaves of the pear tree have withered yellow, only the red branches, in the midst of the brownish green, still brilliant.
Oak trees are rare, Wen Shu almost walked all over the Taimur Mountain, and only found four or five, because it was inconvenient to carry, she still did not immediately dial it off, but remembered the direction, and waited for the time to leave.
Out of the mentality of trying and passing the time, the Yao grass under the mountain was dried by her, and it was packed in a small basket made by herself.
It is said that it is a small back basket, but in fact, it is a square round pocket formed by Teng Man's interlacing with each other, which is still woven by Wen Shu according to the net pocket with red eggs during the Dragon Boat Festival when he was a child.
It's just that Teng Man is harder in the end, and there is no softness and bending from the red line, so the round pocket is not so regular.
But Wen Shu doesn't mind, in her opinion, to the point where she is now, she can use her hands, which are not skillful in weaving, to smoothly weave a straw bag that can hold things, which is already very promising.
However, after staying in Taimur Mountain for a long time and walking all over this mountain, Wen Shu gradually lost interest in this mountain, and more importantly, there are many mountains with strange plants around Taimur Mountain.
For example, thirty miles to the west, there is a tree called Teishu growing in the middle of the mountain, and the shape of the leaves is similar to that of poplar leaves, and the branches are staggered, and the yellow flowers and black fruits are born, and the fruit of the tree does not get angry if it is eaten.
There is a half-stone mountain seventy miles to the west, there is a kind of grass growing on the mountain, just grow out and spit out the ears and flowers, it is as high as more than one zhang, it grows red leaves, blooms red flowers, does not bear fruit, this kind of grass is called Jiarong, people are not afraid of thunder when they eat it.
Not only to the west, to the north, but also to the east there are strange flowers and plants, and the effect is also strange.
For example, there is a Kangmu in the north that can be protected from the invasion of heat, that is, the anti-central department, and there is a palace that can defend against danger, and what surprised and interested her the most was that there was a Shaocheng Mountain forty miles to the east, so there was a kind of grass on the mountain that could become smart after eating.
The original words of the Classic of Mountains and Seas are: forty miles to the east, it is said that the mountain of Shaocheng is wilted, the name is Rigang grass, the leaves are like sunflower and the red stem is white, it is really like the English language, the food is not stupid, the water of the instrument is difficult, and the north flow is injected into the service water.
In a short sentence, it reveals a lot of information, not to mention the grass that can be eaten without being stupid, the important thing is that there is also water, according to her observation, the water that can generally be recorded in the book is the flow of water like a big river.
Such a water source is easy to find, because it may be seen as soon as it hits the ground. 4E
The most important thing is that there is no record in the book of any fierce beasts on this mountain, unlike the Fuxi Mountain in the north, which is clearly written with many snakes.
There are no fierce beasts, there is water, and she has her own dried meat and food, as long as she finds a slightly better corner and lives in the mountains for a few days.
So early in the morning, she began to pack up the few things she had, planning to take everything she could with her, after all, after staying in Shaocheng Mountain for a few days and finding the grass, she was likely to continue to go to other mountains along the way, and not come back until she went out.
Such things as dried meat, wild ginger, bamboo, and sun-dried Yao grass must be carried together, otherwise they will be left behind, and if the wild things are ruined, she will not be distressed to death.
After a hurried cleanup, Wen Shu continued to embark on her treasure hunt, while the fat stealing bird was still lying on her shoulder and napping leisurely.
Fortunately, after repeated training in the past few days, the fat stealing bird is now able to find and fetch water alone with a bamboo knot. This is undoubtedly very convenient for Wen Shu, after all, no matter how fast a person goes, there is no faster than a bird flying.
And the bird walks in the sky, you can see the lake and mountains below, which is naturally faster and more convenient than her to find a water source.
On the other side, the real world was turned upside down because of her disappearance.
I sent a letter to Beijing in advance, just waiting for Wen Shu to take her around to enjoy the little lady of Chu Hong, who took her around to enjoy the friendship of the landlord, arrived at Bianliang on schedule at the end of the sixth day of the fourth month.
This little lady who has never been to the capital, the first time she entered Beijing, she was shocked by the prosperity and liveliness of Bianliang. Immediately, she was more eager to want Wen Shu to lead her around, and she didn't even go to the inn immediately, so she took Yahuan and searched for the address of the book that Wen Shu said before.
But when he found the place, the door was opened by a middle-aged man with half-white hair. Hearing her intention, the man's face was full of pain, and he choked up and told her that Wen Shu was missing and had been missing for six days.
At first hearing this bad news, the little lady Chu suddenly lost her voice, and slowed down for a long time, until after half a cup of tea, she could hear her speak again.
"Uncle can report to the official? There is also Miss Lu from the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion who has some friendship with Wen Shu, and her uncle has looked for her. ”
Father Wen shook his head, and said in his heart that she was a noble girl, how could I see her, but with a sudden turn of his mind, he thought about whether A-Ning would go to see her when he disappeared, and whether she would know A-Ning's whereabouts.
Thinking of this, he hurriedly said: I'll go and ask.
"I'll go with you." Chu Xiaoniang remembered Wen Shu's safety, coupled with her family background as the richest man in Cangzhou, and handed over the post, it must be much easier than Father Wen to get in.
The most important thing is that there is no record in the book of any fierce beasts on this mountain, unlike the Fuxi Mountain in the north, which is clearly written with many snakes.
There are no fierce beasts, there is water, and she has her own dried meat and food, as long as she finds a slightly better corner and lives in the mountains for a few days.
So early in the morning, she began to pack up the few things she had, planning to take everything she could with her, after all, after staying in Shaocheng Mountain for a few days and finding the grass, she was likely to continue to go to other mountains along the way, and not come back until she went out.
