Chapter 28: Suddenly
"Lime trees, that's all over the place!" Lin Santong casually pointed to the depths of the forest, "Look there, isn't it just a lime forest!" ”
It turned out to be a lime tree, and Xiaofei had seen a lot of big oranges hanging on the trees along the way, but he didn't expect that the green oranges were limes!
Lin Xiaofei didn't have time to be happy, so he heard Lin Santong say again: "But gardenia, we have climbed the mountain and walked the forest for so many years, but we have never seen it again!" ”
"Again? That proves that you've seen it before? Lin Xiaofei grasped the key at once.
Lin Santong nodded: "That's right, many years ago, on Shiping Mountain, the water in the small river ditch was still relatively shallow at that time, and in summer, the riverside loved to bloom bushes of gardenias, which were so fragrant that they could be smelled from afar!" Then the water rose and drowned all the flowers! ”
That's not easy...... Lin Xiaofei frowned, if there was a lack of medicinal materials, then this body as light as a swallow pill would definitely not be successful.
Since gardenias once grew on Shiping Mountain, Lin Xiaofei decided to take a good rest after going back tonight, and would go into the mountains and forests early tomorrow morning to look for it.
Seeing that the hour was not early, the group began to set off to go down the mountain, although the descent was much faster than the uphill, but it was enough to walk for two hours, and when they arrived at the entrance of the Kuzhu Village, it was already close to midnight, the village was dark, and almost every house had turned off the lights.
As soon as he entered the village, Lin Xiaofei saw a tall man walking out of the village. The person who suddenly appeared startled the group, and when they got closer, Lin Xiaofei saw that it was a man.
It's just that the moon is dim, and I can't see the man's face clearly.
After the man passed by with the group, Lin Santong spoke softly: "He is Shen Jinnian, the hunter in the village, he can't see with his eyes, and he can't tell the difference between day and night, but because he is blind, his ears are very bright, and he can go into the mountains and forests to hunt rabbits and pheasants or something with his blind eyes." ”
It turned out to be Shen Jinnian, Lin Xiaofei met him, and in the cave with a hot spring eye, it was he who helped him.
Lin Xiaofei thought about it while walking behind the apricot blossom forest, and just turned a corner, a gust of wind blew, and the dark and heavy clouds opened up for most of the time, and the moonlight fell in an instant, illuminating the front brightly.
From a distance, Lin Xiaofei saw a lot of white cloth curtains hanging in front of the gate of the Lin family.
She frowned, afraid that she was dazzled, and before she could rub her eyes, she saw Lin Santong limping forward two steps, and Du Bingyan immediately exhaled softly: "This is ...... What's wrong with this house, what's wrong, what's going on, how is it hanging a white curtain......"
While speaking, Lin Santong had already rushed to the door, the gate was pushed open, and the courtyard was bright, a huge black lacquer coffin was presented in front of the main house, and a red candle stood on the left and right sides of the coffin.
Everyone in the family knelt in the courtyard, and only Lin Zhou's figure was nowhere to be seen.
"This ...... This is? Lin Santong's voice trembled.
Lin Dakui knelt at the front, heard the movement at the door and raised his face, his eyes were red and swollen and bloodshot, and when he saw that it was Santong and them back, he opened his mouth and said with a crying voice: "It's my mother, my mother is gone." ”
"How so?" Du Bingyan also caught up, "Wasn't my mother okay when we left?" ”
"It was the night you left!" Lin Dakui shook his head, "Today is the second day of guarding, and it should be buried in the ground after five more days." ”
