Chapter 139: Snow Mountain
When I got up in the morning, my master was still practicing swordsmanship and eating breakfast as usual, Ling'er slept late last night, and I couldn't help but be a little unenergetic.
"Girl, yesterday my master packed up a lot of things, we can't seem to bring it, why don't we change to a snow mountain to play, my master built a small wooden house there, it's better to go to the mother of the earth, we can't climb the mountain." Shigong got up early, had breakfast, sat at the dining table, and gossiped with Ling'er when he was eating.
"Well, it's all up to Shigong's arrangement." Ling'er's eyelids were sour, and she didn't sleep well, and she didn't feel comfortable anywhere.
"I'll carry something with your sixth uncle and Ah Jue in a while, you can take care of yourself and walk, bring some winter thick clothes to carry, and wear them halfway up the mountain." Division bus substitution.
Ling'er and Ah Jue both nodded.
Zuo Zuo watched from the sidelines, endured it for a long time, and finally asked, "Master, can the apprentice go?" ”
"You're too young, I'll go when you grow up, and the master will go with you if he can still crawl when the time comes!" Shigong touched his left and left head, and his aunt smiled the whole time.
Set off in a carriage to take the foot of the mountain, the snow-capped peaks, stretching between heaven and earth, like a meandering white jade dragon, as if it was about to take off into the air and fly into the clouds. These thousands of kilometers of snow-capped mountains and long peaks are so steep and upright, majestic and magnificent, that people can't help but be daunted! The mountain wind whistled like a devil's black robe, rushing from the valley, and in an instant, the people at the foot of the mountain were already unstable, as if they would be blown away by the wind at any time without a little effort. Ling'er grabbed Ah Jue's hand tightly, and looked up, looking at the sky from this angle, there were stars in the sky twinkling with small eyes, as if she wanted to witness their bold challenge this time. To be honest, Ling'er was already shuddering at this moment, trembling in his heart, not knowing if he could climb this long peak.
The mountains here are next to each other, and it can really be said that there is no end in sight in front and no end in the back. Following the mountain, they climbed the slope lightly, and the scenery along the way was in full view. In the distance is the snow-capped Erhai Lake, which shines with a little golden light under the reflection of the sun, and the turquoise blue sea surface is like a huge mirror, reflecting the distant mountains, white clouds, blue sky, and woods......
Ah Jue asked her with a smile: "Let's pair a pair!" Under the wind, on the flowers, under the wind on the flowers. Cangshan snow, Erhai moon, Erhai moon shines on Cangshan snow. What is a horizontal batch? ”
Ling'er hesitated for a long time and thought about it, and replied, "Wind and snow." ”
Ah Jue happily touched her head, blinked her eyes and said to her, how smart!
The naughty mountain wind got into her neck and ruffled Ling'er's hair, and she smiled and said, "Even you came to tease me?" ”
The group walked and talked, sometimes laughing. Walking higher and higher along the winding mountain road, there were laughter and laughter from time to time among the master and apprentice, and they saw that they were about to reach the peak, but the peak turned around, and they actually saw a new mountain road, so their eyes were deceived several times, and finally they saw the small cabin on the top of the mountain when the last peak turned around. Ling'er cheered: "It's here, it's here." ”
At last I reached the summit of the lowest snow-capped mountain here, and the gray wooden houses looked so simple and conspicuous among the mountains. Standing at the foot of the wooden house, looking up, the blue sky swirls in front of you, and the white clouds seem to be touched by stretching out your hand. Ling'er tore off the big scarf, and suddenly, the scarf was blown up by the mountain wind, like a bulging sail, and her heart seemed to fly up to the blue sky of this snowy plateau and soared in the air like an eagle. What a wonderful state of mind! When Ling'er was self-absorbed, he seemed to be a little reluctant to give up here, but the beautiful scenery could not live for a long time, looking at the beautiful scenery at the foot of the mountain, there was really a feeling that he would be at the top of the mountain, and the mountains at a glance were small, and the surrounding low mountains seemed so small, and the mountains in the distance seemed so great. The distant mountains and near the water are so real under the vast sky, only to see the snow-capped peaks stretching for thousands of miles, the peaks seem to have been chopped, revealing sharp rocks, but not a single tree or grass grows on the rocks, and they are extremely desolate!
"Ah Jue, this is so beautiful, I don't want to leave." Ling'er's face was blown red, and she looked at Ah Jue and laughed, because Ah Jue also had a red face.
"Ling'er, Ah Jue, come into the wooden house! Soon it was dark and it was extremely cold. The master shouted in the wooden house: "Tomorrow at noon, you will take a good look at this snow-capped mountain." ”
The two of them really returned to the wooden house after the master finished shouting, the master was cooking on the fire, and the house was much warmer than the outside, but Ling'er and Ah Jue's faces always couldn't go away, and the master and the sixth uncle didn't have such a face.
"Are you two uncomfortable, why is your face wrong?" Shi Gong looked at the red faces of the two of them, and he couldn't get rid of them, and he asked hurriedly.
"No, it's just that the panting is not as smooth as before, but it can still be accepted and can be endured." Jue took a deep breath.
"You two have some altitude sickness...... "Ling'er and Ah Jue didn't understand what the master said.
"Master, what is altitude sickness?" Ling'er asked curiously.
"I don't know exactly what the teacher is, but I started to breathe poorly in some high places on the mountain, and my face was ugly, flushed, and waxy." Shigong is very accomplished in medicine, but he doesn't have a lot of research on this.
"Wouldn't that be dangerous?" Ling'er was still a little worried and scared when she heard this.
"There shouldn't be any for the time being, let's go down the mountain at dawn the day after tomorrow, go down the mountain faster, or take you home early, your face should be fine after going down the mountain." Shigong told Ling'er and Ah Jue about the plan this time.
"It's all up to you." Ah Jue said with Ling'er.
"Hahaha, it's rare for you to be so obedient." Shi Gong happily cooks rice.
After the night fell, the top of the snow-capped mountain blew a strong wind, although the house was quite warm, but in this hot summer day it was really cold and surprisingly cold, Ah Jue took Ling'er to sit on the kang of the fire and chatted with the master and the sixth uncle, saying that when the master took them to climb the snow mountain in the past, it was higher than this, they climbed several snow mountains, the highest is the mother of the earth, but unfortunately no one can reach the top, and they feel that the body can no longer support it and go down the mountain.
"Wow, my master has such an experience, it's amazing, the sixth uncle has such an experience." Ling'er's face was full of envy.
"Hahaha, silly girl, in life for so many years, you always have to go through some things, there is no hurdle that you can't pass, your father has never seen any winds and waves, he will slowly cultivate you and teach you slowly, but ah, your father chatted with me last time, and his favorite thing is to listen to me talk about the snow mountain, he is also very envious, and when he takes your mother out for a walk, the first is ready to come to the valley to climb the snow mountain again, and live here for a year and a half." Shi Gong seemed to have opened the conversation box and talked eloquently.
"Master, why haven't you married and had children all these years?" Ling'er has never been able to understand, she has never dared to ask, and she doesn't know what she has eaten today, so she asked at once.
"This is because the wife that my master wants to marry is married to someone else." Even the emperor had never asked him such an unspeakable question, and the little girl was bold enough.
"Tell me, I just heard the story of the snowy mountains, and now I will listen to your story." Ling'er looked at Shigong with a gossipy face.
"Ling'er!" Ah Jue heard her say that she was worried that the master would get angry and lose his temper and ignore people, but in the end, the master was very calm, and he was really ready to say it with a smile.
"When my master was in his twenties, he followed my master to the imperial city, and met a girl, and at first glance I thought how could there be such a woman in the world, fresh and refined, with an extraordinary temperament, beautiful as a flower, and a kind face, in short, all good words can be used on her, but none of them can cover her advantages. Later, by chance, Shi Gong knew that she had an intention of falling in love with someone, and the person she liked was also very much about her, and the two finally tied the knot, and Shi Gong never said it, in fact, no one knew about Shi Gong, and no one dared to ask, you are the first. The story told by Shigong this time was not as exciting as the previous one, but Ling'er not only liked to listen to the stories of the top of the snowy mountains, but also liked the stories of gossip.
"Did you see that person again when I went back this time? Is the beloved woman who gave up like you doing well? Ah Jue also joined the gossip army.
"Well, it's always been good, her happiness doesn't need me, it's just that I go back and see that she's doing well, and I think it's worth it." Shigong turned out to be a love saint, after saying this, Ling'er felt like laughing at him, but finally held back, in the cabin on the top of the snowy mountain, his own life is also very important, but it can't just end up here, the consequences of laughing at the love saint are unimaginable, Ling'er thought and shook his head, Shigong was reminiscing and telling, the sixth uncle was listening, only Ah Jue observed Ling'er alone, her every move and smile smiled, and I didn't know what the little girl was thinking for a while shaking her head and pondering.
"Ling'er, don't pester the master, come to me, take you to sleep, let's get up early tomorrow to watch the sunrise." Ah Jue beckoned to Ling'er, and Ling'er really ran over.
"Watching the sunrise?" Shigong always felt that this sounded wrong and inappropriate.
"yes, can you see the sunrise when you open the door?" Ah Jue hurriedly asked.
"The reason for the perennial snow here is that there is no sun, and the sun cannot be seen from the top of this mountain." Shigong thought for a moment and replied.
"So what are we doing here tomorrow?" Ah Jue was puzzled.
"Look for herbs." Shigong smirked.
“…… Didn't you call Senior Brother Sheng and Duoyi here to dig herbs last time? "Ling'er doesn't like digging herbs very much.
"Then you can say it! Besides, I brought you here today, and tomorrow I will take you all to find out and get to know each other. "Shigong wants to use free labor, how can he let it go.
Ah Jue and Ling'er were not interested in this, so they took off their coats and covered the quilt they had just brought, and pretended to be asleep. And so the night passed.
When we got up early the next morning, we still practiced swordsmanship first, but on the top of the snowy mountain outside the wooden house. In this bad weather environment, Ah Jue's eighth chapter had another epiphany, but Ling'er's seventh chapter still did not make any progress.
"Master, am I not suitable for sword training?" Ling'er was a little discouraged.
"This varies from person to person, Ah Jue is talented, this is also what I like him very much, he has practiced the eighth chapter, and after the ninth chapter and the tenth chapter are practiced, the master and him are inseparable, and now his swordsmanship can only be taught to him by the teacher, and your uncles have also stayed in the eighth chapter, and your master is the ninth chapter." Shigong patted Ah Jue on the shoulder and led them back to the house.
"Master, what herbs are you going to dig today?" Ling'er asked.
"The most famous thing on the snow-capped mountains is Snow Lotus. Snow Lotus is very nutritious to eat. It has the effects of circulating menstruation and activating blood, dissipating cold and dehumidifying, stopping bleeding and reducing swelling, and removing toxins from the body. In the book "Compendium of Materia Medica", there is a record of "snow in the cold land, not dispersed in spring and summer, grass in the snow, lotus-like single stem, Tingting in the snow" and "there are Tianshan Mountains in its land, snow in winter and summer, lotus in the snow, and the top of the Tianshan Mountains is the first". Bitter taste. Shigong raised his eyebrows and said very professionally.
"Wow, good thing, I'll dig some for my father and queen mother to bring some back." Ling'er wanted to dig snow lotus again.
"It's rare that our Ling'er is so filial, you can take back the snow lotus dug this time, this medicine is rare, it's good to put it in Niangniang, and the doctor will ask for it when you need it." Shigong patted Ling'er on the shoulder, remembering that Qi Wu's body was cold, and it was good to drink some snow lotus.
"Eat later, let's go together after eating." Shigong, Ah Jue and the sixth uncle went to work for breakfast together, and the four of them ate and packed up and prepared to leave after a while.
"Although there are no dangerous animals on the snowy mountains, but it is too cold, danger is everywhere, the four of us are still together, although there are fewer digging together, but it is much safer." Shigong didn't want to dig separately from the two children, worried that something would happen to them again, but he couldn't bear this responsibility.
"It's all up to the master's arrangement." Ah Jue and Ling'er are serious.
The group of four went digging the snow lotus, but the snow lotus flower was born on the slopes of mountains, valleys, stone crevices, water's edges, and meadows, but they were all very high places. Tianshan Snow Lotus is a precious medicinal flower plant, containing volatile oils, alkaloids, flavonoids, phenols, sugars, tannins and other active ingredients, with the effects of removing cold phlegm, aphrodisiac and replenishing blood, warming the uterus and dissipating stasis, and treating menstrual irregularities.
As soon as I walked down the mountain out of the wooden house, I saw a snow lotus, because the snow mountain is also white, and the snow lotus is also white, and it is really difficult to distinguish.
"Ling'er." When the sixth uncle saw that his master was taking Ah Jue to the front, he hurriedly called Ling'er, as if he had something to say.
"What's the matter?" Ling'er asked curiously.
"I heard that Mi'er is missing? In fact, he was very good to the master before he separated from me last time, and he couldn't bear to hurt me, and the kid didn't have a bad heart. Sixth Uncle knows that you don't like him, but that kid is really not bad. After the sixth uncle finished speaking, he left, leaving Ling'er who wanted to refute the unhurried. Shi Mi is bad or not, she still doesn't know? Can he blame his father for doing so many bad things, he doesn't know it? No matter how you explain it, whoever explains it Ling'er doesn't believe it, and when someone is sent to arrest him, Ling'er will interrogate him personally! Why did you kill Qi Rong in the first place, and then hurt Ah Jue, these people have no grievances with him, and they all come at themselves if they have the ability! Thinking about things in his heart, he fell in the end, and the master couldn't see her for a while, and hurriedly returned to look for her, and when he saw Ling'er, he hurriedly took him to dig in some places in front, which they had already dug up.
