Chapter 354: Old Taro
"Grandpa, Dad, I received two distinguished guests at the gate of the village. Tonight they stay at our house. Little Taro pushed open the wooden door of the courtyard and shouted inside.
"Hello two, welcome to our house." The honest man walked out of the kitchen on the left side of the courtyard and smiled at them kindly.
The man's height is 1.9 meters, and the muscles on his body are not strong but full of strength.
The short and streamlined hair is dyed with oil and salt, which makes it even more shiny. Although a pair of divine eyes were deliberately covered by him, they still couldn't stop the charm that leaked out.
"Little brother, little sister, this is my father, big taro." The little taro ran to the big taro and pointed at him and introduced.
"Hello." Liu Hao greeted him politely.
"Hello." Mo Na is not like Liu Hao, she playfully beckons to the big taro.
"Who's coming?" The old man's voice sounded, interrupting what the big taro had just wanted to say.
The old man in a cloth robe, holding a cane, bowed down, and walked out of the back room tremblingly. He walked slowly, and every step seemed to be quite difficult.
"Father, why did you come out? Hurry to the house and lie down. When the big taro saw his father walking out with a cane, he immediately ran over, hugged him, and said with concern.
"What bastards! There's a guest at home, don't I come out to entertain you? Don't forget my identity, I am the head of Crescent Village, representing Crescent Village. The old man shook the big taro hand and walked on.
"Grandpa, I'll help you." The little taro ran over "oh ooh
"What a good grandson." The same position, the same support, but get two completely different treatments.
Liu Hao didn't greet the old taro immediately, but stared at him with interest. With his divine sense, he felt the aura of a strong man in the old taro.
The old taro noticed Liu Hao's eyes, and he smiled at Liu Hao and said, "Young man, I'm not a beautiful woman who captivates the country and the city, don't always stare at me!" You should look at the red face next to you, she is the most beautiful scenery. ”
Old Yutou's words made Mona's cheeks flush. He said, "I hate it!" But I was very happy in my heart.
"Don't stand! Inside please. The folds on the old taro's face tell the story of the years he has experienced. The amiable smile combined with the vicissitudes of the years made Liu Hao and Mo Na unconsciously shorten the distance between him and him.
"Son! Tonight, we will entertain two distinguished guests from afar. When he entered the house, the old taro commanded the big taro.
In the hall, the little taro stood beside the old taro obediently.
"Old village chief, I have long heard of the name of Crescent Lake. I came here to have a good time. But before I play, I have something I would like to ask you about, and I would like to ask you to give me some advice. Liu Hao arched his hand towards the old taro.
"Xiao Liu is polite, if you have anything you want to ask, just ask! As long as I know, I will tell you that there is no teaching. The old taro was more satisfied with the young man in front of him. He was much more polite than any young man he had ever met.
"Old village chief, I want to know, why are there no other towns or villages within a hundred miles of Crescent Lake, except for Crescent Village?" Liu Hao didn't hide it, and asked straight to the point.
The old taro's expression changed slightly, he didn't expect Liu Hao to ask this. He sorted out his thoughts and said slowly: "The scenery of Crescent Lake is beautiful, the lake water is clear, and the surrounding mountains are surrounded.
The crescent moon lake has survived perfectly to this day, which is inseparable from its geographical environment. You are spirits, and naturally you do not feel the hardships of mortals. If you want to approach Crescent Lake from the periphery, you need to cross the mountains and walk through the natural grasslands.
The beasts that lie dormant in the mountains are sensitive to the breath of the spirits, and they will not attack you actively, but they will launch ferocious attacks on passers-by. The most important thing is that the beasts in this area live in groups, ranging from a hundred to a thousand.
According to the records left by the older generation in the village, in addition to the outer beast herds, there are also fierce beasts in the middle and rare demon beasts guarding the Crescent Lake. They seem to exist to guard the treasures in the Crescent Lake.
Many people who come to our tourist say they are here to travel, but they are actually here to hunt for treasure. It's just that why don't they understand? Legends are legends, and if there were any treasures, they might have been taken away long ago.
When I was younger, I struggled with the question you just asked. I did some research on this issue, and the results were so amazing that I still can't believe it.
Hehe, do you know what the results of my investigation are? That is, within a radius of 100 miles of Crescent Lake, surrounded by a mysterious force, except for Crescent Village, no village or city can be built anywhere else.
If you don't believe me, you can try it, but I advise you not to try it, because I don't know how many people have tried it for you. ”
The old taro's answer made Liu Hao silent for a few seconds, and then he spoke: "Old village chief, I believe what you say, but why do I think there is other information in your words?" ”
"What's the message?" The old taro grinned.
"The secret of Crescent Lake is not in Crescent Lake, but in Crescent Village." Liu Hao's eyes froze, and his eyes locked tightly on the old taro.
"Hehe, Xiao Liu, you think too much. What did I mean by what I just said to you? The crescent moon village is the crescent moon village, and the crescent lake is the crescent lake. If you want to talk about the connection between the two, it is the word 'crescent'.
Whether the moon banquet has secrets or not, no one knows better than me. I have been the village chief for decades, and Crescent Village has been spending peaceful years. If there is anything important, there is only this triennial Lake God Conference.
For us ordinary people, there are immortals in the world. I know that in the eyes of your spirits, there is no such thing as a god. But I believe there is one thing we have in common, and that is awe.
If a man does not have fear, he is in vain. Even if he achieves a lot in the future, there will be a day when he will be counterattacked. The higher you stand, the harder you fall, and the worse you die. ”
Old Taro's words are just a few words for Mo Na, but for Liu Hao, there are words in the words, and there is no cave.
"Old village chief, I agree with what you said. As a spirit, there should be the consciousness of a spirit. Spiritual practice is inherently against the sky, but going against the sky does not mean that we should abandon our awe. Having a heart of reverence will allow us to keep our hearts, never forget our original intentions, and continue to move forward on the path of the spirit. ”
The old taro smiled and nodded, and the expression on his face did not fluctuate much. But in his heart, turbulent emotions hit his heart again and again. If the door of his heart is broken, what will happen next will be beyond his prediction and control.
