One hundred and seventy years old???
That's the age of the two old men combined. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Legend has it that there was an old Chinese medicine doctor in Chinese history who lived to be 256 years old, but no one had ever seen it.
And the old man in front of him, who is obviously sixty years old, said that he is three sixty years old, is this possible?
Seeing that the old man was still so calm and relaxed when he combined the shovel to his neck, I had to stop and look at the gang leader and ask the gang leader to help identify it.
The gang leader's eyes lit up, and he came over to shovel my combination down, and asked excitedly: "Old man, are you really from the Daoguang period?" ”
"Hmm......" Old man Ren replied with his nose and glanced at me, as if to blame me for being too impulsive in this later life.
The gang leader kept nodding his head: "Then you really have the ability, there are so many ghosts and beasts in this heavy mountain, my master told me that it would be good for someone to live here for a few years, I didn't expect you to stay here for so long!" ”
The gang leader has always been suspicious of Ren Xuanxuan, and he feels very good about Old Man Ren, but now that he looks at it, he will not be fake.
"Si'er, why don't you hurry up and kowtow to the old man and apologize?" The third child knew the truth and was very proud.
I admit that I was a little reckless in what I did just now, but I was still a little skeptical: "What happened to Ren Xuanxuan?" ”
She ...... She came in earlier than me, and I don't know exactly when she came in, but I wouldn't have survived in this mountain without her anyway. When Old Man Ren mentioned Ren Xuanxuan, he paused, and then it was smooth: "I only know that she is also a human being, and she has made friends with some characters in the mountains, she is amazing, you have already seen it, right?" ”
Old man Ren's words can be regarded as making Ren Xuanxuan's origin clear, and the third child is even more proud.
According to what Old Man Ren said, Ren Xuanxuan is not a ghost at all, she can be regarded as half a fairy, so my previous actions to Ren Xuanxuan were too rude, and when I spoke, I also paused: "That...... Then when you first came to us, why didn't you make it clear? ”
"You're from the mountains, aren't you?" Old man Ren asked rhetorically.
"Ah......," I replied.
"As soon as you string people show up, this mountain can be opened, after the mountain is opened, every time a lot of people fall in, within a few days, there are almost all dead and injured, occasionally there are a few left, and they will also covet the things in this mountain, these people are not visible." Old man Ren sighed with emotion: "Speaking of which, Xuanxuan and I have to thank you for our blessings, so the two of us pretended to be grandchildren and grandchildren to meet you, maybe we could also help a little, but we didn't make it clear when we met, because I was afraid that you would treat us as monsters." ”
"Oh...... How could that be, if you had made it clear earlier, it would have been too late for us to thank you?! "I know I'm wrong, so I'm going to make up for it.
"Hmph, with your temper, you might eat us!" Old man Ren hurt me, and turned to the gang leader again: "You are the gang leader of this group of mountain people, right?" ”
The title of gang leader, we told the old man Ren Xuanxuan before that it was the code name of our gang, it seems that they already know what the gang leader means, and in front of him, the old man Ren has to confirm it again, which can be regarded as a sophisticated person.
"It used to be, but after entering the mountain, I passed on the position of the gang leader to him." The gang leader said with a smile.
Old man Ren was a little surprised, turned his head to look at me, and stopped talking.
I smirked, I desperately wanted to have a good relationship with Old Man Ren, and people were here to help!
The third child had already guessed that this was the case, and he didn't feel anything, but Ning Hongyan was very surprised, looking at his father and me, I didn't know whether it was joy or sadness.
"Hula!"
"Old man, be careful!"
Patronizing and happy, we all forgot to stand by the lake to talk, Ren old man to the lake to a stop, but also can attract the lake guys, there is a fire cloud carp jumped out of the water, straight to the shore, I saw that the situation is not good, quickly pulled the old man Ren away.
"What's that? The guy guarding here? The third child was carrying a flashlight and holding a combination shovel and was about to go up and give it two blows.
"Don't go!" The gang leader is not afraid that Huoyun Carp will hurt the third child, but thinking about our next actions, when we fell into the water before, Huoyun Carp did not attack us, this time we will run alone on the shore, let's not hurt it for the time being, you live or die, let's talk about it before the battle.
The third child was stopped, we all retreated, and watched the fire cloud carp jump back into the water again, where a group of fire cloud carp on the shore were wandering, the fire shuttled, and it was the best-looking guy we had ever met.
"Old man, what's going on, why do you stop by the river, and the guys in the water don't die?" I'm still curious about it.
Old man Ren glanced at me, and seemed to be a little dissatisfied with my gang leader: "As far as you are still the gang leader, didn't I tell you, Xuanxuan and I are also old guys in this mountain, and we have lived out of immortality, these guys and those big-faced pigs are living by the fairy herbs in the mountain, and when they smell us, they naturally want to try it!" ”
"Oh......" In fact, before he could answer, I figured it out: "Then you are living as a human being?" ”
"Hehe, it's a human elf!" Although there is a difference of more than 100 years, Old Man Ren still understands what I mean, I am joking with him, human elves usually say smart people, but he and Ren Xuanxuan really live as human elves.
Looking at each other and smiling, the old man Ren looked at me differently, it turned out that this gang leader was not so stunned!
"So where did Xuanxuan go? Is she still coming? "I miss Ren Xuanxuan a little bit now, female ghosts are one thing, fairies are another.
"You still have the face to ask, haven't you always wanted to drive people away before? Something happened to Xuanxuan, I have to settle accounts with you! The third child popped out in time again.
Cut, a typical heavy color light friend, I said in my heart that if I hadn't rushed to the front interview water, you know whether they were people or ghosts, and you know a six!
"That group of big-faced pigs is coming for Xuanxuan, Xuanxuan is with us, we will be in danger, so, San'er and I came over first, wait, Xuanxuan will also come." Old man Ren is particularly confident in Xuanxuan's ability.
I'm a little relieved, if something else happened to Xuanxuan, I would also have a sin.
The Big-Faced Pig is gone, and the guys in the water can't hurt us, so we can find a place to rest here for the night.
The tent is gone, spread some hay, fold a few branches, and set up a pile of firewood, we can roast the clothes on our bodies, and Ning Hongyan went to the side to roast it herself.
When it was almost packed, we sat together and chatted.
Old man Ren first talked about his situation, in fact, he is not a master, he is a farmer here in Tengzhou, he rushed into the mountains at night, and later met Ren Xuanxuan, and the two lived together in the mountains.
After the introduction of the old man Ren, we also introduced it separately, except for the age, we and the old man Ren's situation is almost the same, but the 21st century is very different from the feudal era of the old man Ren.
Listening to what we said, Old Man Ren also said that the things in the light years are basically a history of blood and tears, compared with our lives, Old Man Ren is simply challenging the limit when he lives......
"Hey, hey, wake up, my little sister is here!"
"Well, who, don't make a fuss, I'm going to turn my face......"
Early the next morning, Ren Xuanxuan appeared, holding a dog tail grass to sweep my face, it was not easy for me to sleep, I was woken up in the morning and had a very big temper, but when I opened my eyes and saw Ren Xuanxuan, I had no temper in an instant, and I gave her brother a smile.
"What's wrong with you, smiling so badly? Are you holding back and hurting me again?! Ren Xuanxuan pretended to be angry and said.
I wiped the corners of my mouth and grinned again: "No, no, you didn't make it clear before, I misunderstood you, and now I, I ......"
I miss her a little.
"What are you, you're much worse than the third child!" Ren Xuanxuan threw the dog's tail grass in my face and walked away with a smile.
It's her, even if the seven fairies in the sky come down to earth, we won't change it, listening to the clear and pleasant laughter, looking at the slender and lovely figure, I'm excited.
Ren Xuanxuan went to talk to Ning Hongyan again, and learned Ren Xuanxuan's identity, and Ning Hongyan got a lot closer to her.
After a while, the leader got up, wandered around and got a lot of food, the six of them sat around and happily ate a breakfast, Ren Xuanxuan and Ning Hongyan had a rice bucket, and the old man Ren ate me.
After eating, after a brief tidying up, the gang leader hurriedly asked: "Girl, do you know what herbs are here, where are they?" ”
I also asked Old Man Ren last night, and he said that he didn't know, and he had to wait for Ren Xuanxuan.
Ren Xuanxuan was very happy when she heard the gang leader also call her daughter: "The herbs you want are on the island in the middle of the lake, as for what they are, I don't know." ”
"Oh." The gang leader also treats Ren Xuanxuan as half a daughter.
After a while, the six of us sat together again to discuss the matter of taking the immortal herbs on the island in the middle of the lake, and at the beginning, I asked them: "We are now a family and don't talk to the two families, so I'm welcome, Xuanxuan, old man, you are both seniors in the mountains, this time we went to the island in the middle of the lake to get medicine, can you help us?" ”
"This ......" Ren Xuanxuan suddenly became embarrassed.
Old man Ren added: "It's really ashamed to say it, although we have been in the mountains for so long, we don't know how to water, and when we get to that island, I can help, and Xuanxuan doesn't have to go." ”
When we heard this, we were all a little discouraged, in fact, we are also difficult guys in the water, and we can still cope with it on the island in the middle of the lake, since they can't help in the water, we have to figure out our own way.
We all went to the lake to have a look, and for the sake of insurance, we didn't let Ren Xuanxuan and Old Man Ren get too close.
"You two go over there, San'er come with me, let's go around the lake and see if there is any way." The gang leader arranged.
"I'm with Hongyan." Ren Xuanxuan immediately came to our side.
Old man Ren is in a group with the gang leader.
Our two groups of people walked separately, just walked a dozen steps, suddenly more than a dozen white nets flew in the air, the three of them were still in the woods, not covered, Ren Xuanxuan and I, Ning Hongyan and I had already walked to the open space, and were arrested, before the people could react, we were pulled by the big net and flew to the lake.
"Hurry up and find a way to save Xuanxuan, she's afraid of !! water" Old man Ren was in a hurry and shouted at the gang leader.
