Chapter 35: Surprise or Shock

The three of them went out of the people's square and had a hasty breakfast in the market, but Mo Zhai couldn't help it.

"What the hell are you going to do, you're fast?"

"Do you know how to climb trees? I will tell you if I can climb the mountain. ”

This headless sentence popped out, and Mo Zhai was instantly stunned. At this time, the big hand of the bird is holding two pieces of baked cakes, biting and munching at the same time.

"I can climb mountains. The climb is high. ”

As soon as I opened it, my mouth was full of crumbs of bread. Squirted two people in the face. Wang Xu wiped his face and counted the fowl slippery:

"Hey! Crawl you ghost! Do you climb trees? Trees are going to fall, right? The next time I pull up a tree, I will definitely call you. ”

Mo Zhai ignored his appearance, stopped abruptly, stood in the middle of the street, and saluted Wang Xu:

"Please sir teach me."

This meaty and pleasing young man has never been so solemn in his life. In terms of quick thinking, the arrogant Mo Zhai has never really admired anyone. Even after failing to compete with Lu Ban, he never paid attention to the other party's invention until he saw the waterwheel and the complex loom, Mo Zhai was deeply impressed by the young man in front of him.

At this time, the pedestrians on the street cast puzzled glances. Wang Xu is really embarrassed, a tower foodie is already very eye-catching. As soon as Mo Zhai bowed like this, he immediately became the focus of attention.

"It's all brothers, why are you so serious? Let's go! Slowly. ”

In order to express the righteousness between the brothers, Wang Xu was busy hooking up with Mo Zhai.

"That's right! Do you know how to climb trees? ”

"As long as Brother Xu teaches me, don't climb trees, even if you go to the soup and fire, Zhai will not give up."

"It's not that serious."

Just a few steps. Wang Xu felt heavy on his shoulders, and he turned his head to look. The big hand of the bird slippery also came up.

"Slippery! Take your hands away. ”

"Hey, hey! I want to do that, too. ”

"Where are you shoulder-to-shoulder? It's clearly holding me! Get out of the way, or how am I going to walk? ”

Not really. Wang Xu has a height difference of 30 centimeters between the bird and the bird. As soon as the other party's giant hand was matched, he couldn't figure out an inch and looked at the aggrieved appearance of the giant man, Wang Xu helplessly persuaded:

"If you think about me, I am a dignified and wild man, and I am shouldered by you in public, and you are so tall, doesn't it seem that I am short? It's shameless to be seen. Let go. ”

Bird Slippery Smile:

"It's easy."

Dahan immediately bent his knees, raised his eyebrows, glanced at the top of Wang Xu's head, and carefully compared the height difference between the two. Wang Xu suddenly felt that his IQ had been insulted. He rolled his eyes:

"Tap!"

Bird Slippery raised his arms slightly. Wang Xu reluctantly hooked his other hand on the other party's shoulder. The bird was very happy. He felt that brothers should walk like this, which seemed particularly domineering.

Pedestrians on the street were stunned. I only felt that their wild slaughter was crazy. Hugging a man to swagger through the market, he actually hugged a gorilla. The way the birds walk like they are walking is really funny.

It didn't take long for the three of them to come to Aji's medicine house. Wang Xu took out a silk silk from his arms and handed it to Mo Zhai.

"Do you think there's a problem?"

Mo Zhai is an expert in carpentry, looking at the structure of the wooden house and the pattern of furniture on the silk silk, he only gave the answer in a moment:

"No problem. It's just that these wooden boxes and cabinets are cleverly made... There will be some trouble. ”

Seeing Aji's depressed appearance yesterday, Wang Xu made up his mind to surprise Aji. So, in order not to let the other party find out, while the girl was bathing, he quietly drew a sketch. I thought of transforming the cottage into a wooden structure of the elegant house, and decorating it according to the layout of the Chinese medicine store of later generations. A set of medicine cabinets full of drawers is sure to delight the girl.

When he thought of Aji's adoring gaze and the shy praise in reply, his heart was filled with joy. That fluttering feeling, as if I was flying into the sky.

When Wang Xu came back to his senses, Mo Zhai had already explained how to purchase materials. Wang Xu took out two golds and instructed:

"Slippery! You go and get the carpenter to help. Shen Shi booked a table at the restaurant and asked the shopkeeper to inform Uncle Li and Feng Bo's family. Everyone had a good time, and the wine and meat were full. ”

Bird took the money and ran back to the city with joy. Wang Xu took Mo Zhai into the mountains.

Yesterday he had been thinking about it for a long time and had come up with the perfect plan. Aji will clean at home this day, and will never go out until noon. He went to dig out the bird's eggs first to touch his wife. Then, find an excuse not to let your wife go out. When this place is finished tomorrow, he will lead Ah Ji to come and behave well. Thinking of this, I rejoiced in my heart:

"Hey, hey! Perfect. ”

Rugged mountain roads, winding and circling. The beauty of the autumn mountains is even more unique. Wang Xu gushed about his business management model.

"The people of Yunmeng are less than 10,000 people, and I am a wild slaughterer, with an annual income of at least 300,000 yuan. If Momen could control ten of these officials, there would be a steady flow of wealth. ”

"Brother Xu! My brother is puzzled, what's the use of asking for so much money? ”

"Hey! Very foolish. Let me ask you, why was Jiang Ziya appreciated by Ji Chang and worshiped as a master? ”

"Taigong is the originator of the military family, and he has opened hundreds of schools, and his talent is even more known."

Wang Xu suddenly felt big.

"Stop! Stop! Jiang Ziya is just a businessman. To be appreciated by Xibohou and to achieve immortal deeds is to judge the situation. He is well versed in the way of fame and fortune. If the people did not know his ugliness, and ridiculed him for fishing with straight hooks, how could they make a name for him? ”

"I want to hear about it."

With a modern eye. "Those who wish to take the bait" is nothing more than Jiang Taigong's self-hype. He was a commoner who wanted to get acquainted with Xibohou Jichang and had no chance, so he could only do something stupid and out of line, so that the people would spread the word of mouth and build momentum for him. Even if it is ridicule and infamy, as long as Ji Chang is attracted, he will have the opportunity to recommend himself.

Wang Xu instilled his own insights into Mo Zhai. Every time there is a punchline, the other party is ecstatic.

"So making money is for fame. With wealth, Momen can pave bridges and roads everywhere to benefit the people, and once it is famous. Are you still worried that there are no disciples to follow? ”

"Yes! Yes, too! ”

"You learned in Yunmeng that waterwheels or looms are tools to make a name for yourself. Got it? However, you can't tell the secret of the loom for five years. I haven't made enough money yet. ”

Mo Zhai nodded yes again and again. The two talked about Wei Chang's deception again, and before they knew it, they had gone to the woods where the eggs were being dug up. Wang Xu took off the bamboo basket around his waist and handed it to Mo Zhai.

"I'll leave it to you! A basket full will tell you the principle of leverage. My husband is a fire, you dig it slowly. Be mindful when climbing trees. There are snakes in the forest. ”

Although Wang Xu carried a sword, he still had lingering fears about the encounter with a hungry wolf. In his mind, the beast was afraid of fire, and it would be safer to do so. After a while, bake a few more eggs and eat them as snacks. Enjoying the beauty of autumn, this is the so-called life.

Then, he pulled the crystal out of his robe and began to light it.

Previously deceived by the gem merchant, this crystal is Nuwa's tears. After he tested it with blood, he nearly broke it in a fit of rage. Because when he bought it, he noticed that this concave and convex mirror-like crystal could concentrate light. After trying, it can really be used to ignite, and it is even better than Jiansui. Later, he poured out all the resentment that had caused him to lose too much blood, and cursed a few words when he had nothing to do. And this crystal survived, and was often carried by Wang Xu as a tool for making fire.

At this time, one of Mo Zhai's legs had just hit the trunk of the tree. Seeing Wang Xu's miraculous way of igniting fire, the stunned golden rooster was independent. When Wang Xu noticed Mo Zhai's obscene posture, he smiled helplessly:

"Huh. What are you stupid about? Get to work! I'll teach you when I go back. Light... It travels in a straight line. ”

Mo Zhai jumped and climbed upward. The speed is no less than that of Aji. He deftly packed a nest of eggs into a bamboo basket. Wang Xu looked up and frowned. yelled:

"Leave one or two for each nest. My wife, this is the rule of the mountains. ”

Mo Zhai obediently put the eggs in the bamboo basket back into the nest. Then, holding the trunk of the tree, he slowly retreated downward. Wang Xu squinted his eyes and looked at the sun in the east.

He was bored and looked around. After a long time, he pursed his lips and showed a shallow smile, which was very intriguing. Not far away, the sumac tree is still there. The epidermis has condensed into a sparkling resin. Snow-white debris gradually formed new bark. Wang Xu walked over and reached out to touch the wound on the tree trunk.

Oh, yes! Everyone is rich. Uncle Li may never venture into the mountains again for a bucket of raw lacquer. It's also inevitable that no one will care here. The days when a family of five worked hard for a year, earned 1,400 yuan a year, and still couldn't eat enough for one person, seem to have passed and become history.

Think back to the first time I met Aji, a girl like a wild man. Unkempt hair, dirt, bloated clothes, and bare ankles. Wang Xu was afraid, sympathetic, and moved.

Now the girl has grown up and become his wife. They will be like ordinary couples, respect and love each other, and spend their lives in this mountain city. Thinking of this, Wang Xu was a little sentimental. It's been more than a year, and I don't know if my wife in my previous life is doing well? Is there anyone married? Do you want to start a happy life again?

He sighed, as if pouring out all the knots in his heart.

It's time to let go. Forget the past and start over...

The sun rises in the east, and the warm sunshine takes away a hint of the chill of late autumn. The withered leaves flutter in the forest, as if you are in a fairytale dreamland. Autumn is the death knell when winter is coming, and all things are going to die. It is also fruitful, in order to accumulate strength and courage, looking forward to the vitality of spring.

Just when Wang Xu was full of melancholy and nostalgia for the past, a low groan suddenly came from the forest.

"Help me!"

Wang Xu was frightened, and subconsciously pulled out his sword and ran towards the forest. Not far away, Mo Zhai was leaning under the big tree, his face was blue and sweating profusely. A trembling hand rested on his right leg. Wang Xu exclaimed in surprise.

"What's wrong? You're hurt? ”

He cautiously looked around, leaning towards Mo Zhai's heart. Mo Zhai Nu moved his mouth and reminded weakly:

"Heart. There are snakes! ”

Wang Xu's body sank, his hair stood on end, and he jumped backwards violently. A blue and yellow striped snake wriggled out from between the robes on Mo Zhai's right leg and snag towards him. Stop-and-go, and from time to time spit out scarlet letters. Wang Xu instantly broke out in a cold sweat. He swung a sword with his backhand, and the head of the snake was instantly cut off to the ground. The wriggling limbs made him creepy.

Wang Xu immediately picked up the head of the flying snake with the tip of his sword, and hurriedly ran to Mo Zhai's side. He leaned down and asked nervously:

"Where's the injury? Can you talk? If not, just tell me with your eyes. ”

Mo Zhai twitched, unable to even use the strength to speak. He stared at his right leg, hidden under his robe. Wang Xu hurriedly lifted the hem of the robe that was folded like a skirt. I saw that there were two thin red dots on the underwear on Mo Zhai's legs. He ripped open Mo Zhai's shirt while thinking about how to save him.

It seemed that the snake was very venomous. The snake venom that can kill people in my impression is full of neurotoxins. In order to prevent the rapid spread of the toxin in the blood, a tourniquet is used to tie it up and then help the injured person to suck out the poisonous blood. It seems that this is the most reliable first aid method.

Thinking of this, Wang Xu decisively tore off a strip of cloth from his robe and tied it to Mo Zhai's wound. After doing this, his face was embarrassed, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

Mo Zhai's leg hair is really vigorous, black and thick. For a while, Wang Xu didn't know how to speak. Entangled in my heart, I am helpless. If you help Mo Zhai suck out the poisonous blood, I am afraid that it will leave a psychological shadow in this life. He slowly closed his eyes and showed the courage to die. The moment his lips touched his leg hair, he felt his soul tainted.

At this time, poor Mo Zhai had already fainted. The sun gradually rises overhead, and the light and shadow pour down. The bare treetops left a few interlaced black shadows on the ground. There is no foliage to set off, and it is extraordinarily lonely.

The autumn wind blows through the trees, and the scattered leaves make an intermittent rustling sound. Then the sound and falling dead leaves hid in the golden earth. The occasional sound of retching, coughing, and spit in the forest mingles with the sounds of nature to create a rhythmic movement.

Wang Xu suppressed the nausea in his heart, tore off a piece of robe, wrapped the snake's body and mind, and put it in the bamboo basket. Then, he picked up Mo Zhai on his back and walked down the mountain with a steady walk.

In the more than a year since he lived in Yunmeng, Wang Xu has also encountered people who went into the mountains to cut trees and were bitten by poisonous snakes, but they all applied some herbs and raised them for a few days, and their bodies would gradually recover. If you go back with the snake body, maybe the well-informed elders and mountain people can know how to detoxify, and Mo Zhai will have more hope for life.

The more Wang Xu thought about it, the more terrifying he felt. In case Mo Zhai dies, there is no doubt that he will be left behind for 10,000 years and become a sinner in history. And this crime is quite ridiculous. In order to pick up girls, Mozi died unexpectedly. Back then, when Mrs. Nanzi was just saluting with Sage Kong through the curtain, the pearl hairpin trembled lightly and made a sound, and she was scolded by later generations for thousands of years. There are many shameless women in history, and Wang Xu is unwilling to be such a negative teaching material. This is more than a laughing stock. Estimate that the hat of one of the best friends is buttoned down. Countless parents will use him as an example to illustrate the consequences of careless friendship. Thinking of this, he quickened his pace and prayed silently that the boy on his back would never be fine.

One hand held Mo Zhai's buttocks, and the other hand gripped the hilt of the sword, using the long sword as a crutch to borrow strength. All the way, it was extremely miserable. In the dark, Wang Xu seemed to empathize with the pain that Ah Ji had experienced in the past.

The mountain road was difficult, and Wang Xu staggered and finally carried Mo Zhai to the bottom of the mountain. It's noon. The medicine house at the foot of the mountain is vaguely in front of you, and you can even hear the noise of building houses. Wang Xu panted and squatted tiredly on the side of the mountain road. He was ready to rest for a while, walk a few more feet, and scream for help. However, when Wang Xu got up again, his legs trembled unconsciously. He tried several times, but he couldn't carry Mo Zhai. Then, he threw his sword on the side of the road, gritted his teeth, picked up Mo Zhai by his waist, and walked forward quickly for dozens of steps, and then his figure collapsed.

He was on his back, panting like an ox. I felt like my body didn't even have the strength to shout. I don't know how long it took, but the blinding light overhead was blocked by a dark shadow. Wang Xu looked at it fixedly.

"Brother Xu! Why do you sleep on the side of the road with my family? ”

When parting, the poultry slippery kept in mind the advice that Shen Shi should open the meal and the wine and meat should be enough. It's two o'clock in the afternoon, and it's just over an hour before the meal starts. As he helped carry the wood, he kept looking at the movement on the mountain. Looking forward to Wang Xu and Mo Zhai's return soon. When he saw Wang Xu carrying Mo Zhai down the mountain, Yu Huali also waved to the two. No, Wang Xu bent down and fell to the ground and didn't get up.

Seeing the savior, Wang Xu was overjoyed and jumped up suddenly.

"Slippery! Fast! You raise your legs, I raise my head. Run! ”

He bent down, grabbed the placket of Mo Zhai's shoulders, and kept urging.

"Hurry up! Run! ”

After turning his back, he bent his arms, grabbed Mo Zhai's legs and began to run.

The mountain road is sloping and has a significant slope. Due to the inertia when going downhill, the two ran faster and faster. Wang Xu let the bird slip and raise his legs to run in front of him, taking into account the relationship between the height difference between the two rao and the slope. If Wang Xu raised his legs, with the height of the bird and the advantage of the slope, the weight of Mo Zhai's body would tilt towards Wang Xu. The habit of doing business all year round made him instinctively make the choice of pursuing advantages and avoiding disadvantages.

However, what he never expected was that the more massive the object, the greater the inertia.

When Wang Xu noticed the problem, it was already too late. He couldn't keep up with the speed of the fowl and unexpectedly let go. I saw that Mo Zhai's head was like a falling ping pong ball, jumping up and down, with amazing elasticity. The runaway bird slipped and dragged Mo Zhai's legs, and ran more than ten meters away before stopping.

With such a tragic picture, Wang Xu was stunned. I felt my eyelids jumping wildly, my scalp tingling, and the back of my head hurting terribly. He stared at the back of the fowl and stared blankly for a long time. I felt a hint of sudden feeling in my heart inexplicably. He muttered to himself, comforting himself, trying to ease the heavy guilt in his heart

"Mozi's friend is not the only one? Ay! There are birds slippery, and it is difficult not to die! ”
