He thought it was good, but the journey was far from being so far from what he had expected, and the fatigue of the day made him reluctant to walk any longer, so he found a place to rest by the river, and wanted to wait until dawn to catch the passing ferry back to the village.

At that time, he didn't realize that there was anything wrong, and when he woke up, he found that he had fallen into a tree hole, and he had no choice but to climb out of the tree hole, but the previous rainstorms made the cave wall too slippery and could not borrow any strength, and then he found that there was a passage behind him.

People have the psychology of curiosity, and so does he, so he walked into this dark passage by magic.

The passage was dark and long, and I don't know how long I walked, but at the end I found that there was another tree hole. The hollow is dry and relatively low, so you can climb it with both hands. When he came out of the hollow of the tree, he was greatly surprised by what he saw, there were countless deep-rooted osmanthus trees and fragrant osmanthus flowers.

Like me and Runzi's first reaction, it was like Bi Ma Wen entered the peach orchard, and when he saw it, he wanted to go up and take the osmanthus in his pocket, and when he picked it, he saw the old osmanthus tree.

The osmanthus on the old osmanthus tree not only has large petals, but also has a more fragrant smell, so he gives up the osmanthus he has picked and looks for a better target.

The old laurel tree was tall and big, and he could only reach a little on tiptoe, so he took out a sickle and cut down a branch, but he didn't expect the osmanthus on the branch to wither instantly, and then fade to black, like burnt soot, and it was itchy and unbearable after touching the skin.

Greed is not enough to swallow an elephant, if he accepted it when he saw it at that time, he would not fall into the trap of the "third brother" step by step.

Realizing that he might have been poisoned in some way, he quickly took out the plaster from his back basket and wiped it. The white and cool plaster not only has no effect, but also makes the toxicity even more severe. After a while, the skin of the two arms bulged up with a thick layer of crust, as if it was burned, although it didn't hurt, but when it itched, I couldn't help but want to scratch the skin, but I knew that I couldn't scratch it, and this uncomfortable feeling was worse than death.

At this moment, the "third brother" appeared at the right time, and when he saw him in person, he almost scared him out of a cold sweat, and the half of his hemp face was as black as the bottom of the pot, and he was not a good person at first glance.

It is said that the "third brother" is not strange, not only temporarily detoxified him, but also taught him how to pick osmanthus flowers and the shortcut to come here, so that he was grateful to Dade and completely subverted his previous impression.

At first, the "third brother" only asked him to keep what he saw and heard secret, in order to avoid arousing the suspicion of others, these osmanthus flowers can only be brought a little, and they must not be discovered by others when drying, and if a little news is leaked, they will not be sent to the antidote.

Xiaobao and his father followed the instructions of the "third brother" one by one, did not dare to forget, and did not care what the other party was from, what his name was, just came to take the antidote regularly, according to his own words, later the "third brother" would ask him to put a little blood on the root of the old laurel tree while giving him the antidote, saying that it was to release poison, but it was not much, so he could only do it.

In the months that followed, his father would come to Guilin regularly, and he was fascinated by the scenery of the four seasons of spring, and it was strange that it was raining and snowing heavily, but it was a completely different scene. The "third brother" only said that this is a fairyland on earth, and if he lives here for a long time, he can also teach him the art of immortality. This made him excited, and he simply worshipped the "third brother" like a god, and every word he said was like a holy decree. With the effect of the medicine, Xiaobao's father felt more and more energetic, as if he had returned to the state of his youth, and his appearance and body had undergone obvious changes, and he firmly believed that the words of the "third brother" were true. After that, the "third brother" said that the toxicity on his body had been basically lifted, but he still had to consolidate his foundation, and gave him some loess, so that he could take a spoonful a day at home, and then come back to take it after taking it, and it could be completely detoxified after half a year, and these loess had the effect of rejuvenating the face (no different from the current fake doctors and medical trusts). Of course, Xiaobao's father took it according to what he said, and he didn't come back here until the loess ran out a few days ago, and he thought that he would continue to take loess as before, but the "third brother" was unusual, took the opportunity to stun him, and tied him to the trunk of the old laurel tree. Only then did he realize that the person in front of him was a femme fatale at all, and he had been completely blinded by his rhetoric before, and what he did was extremely vicious and damaging to yin morality. The "third brother" then took out a strange wind lamp and shook it in front of Xiaobao's father, he smelled a fragrance and seemed to be enchanted, and his body was completely out of control, so he could only squeeze a little hoarse sound out of his throat. After the "third brother" untied him, he took his "walking corpse" to wander around the Guilin Forest, as if looking for something. He felt that his body was gradually overwhelmed, and his stomach churned vigorously, and after taking two steps, he vomited blood mixed with muck, until when he could not vomit up, several thick roots burst out of the ground, and flailed in the air like the long wrists of an octopus. After a period of rage, the "third brother" had long since disappeared, leaving Xiaobao and his father standing alone, unable to move. At this moment, the roots of the tree suddenly attacked Xiaobao's father, wrapped around his ankle and threw him into the air. He only felt dizzy for a while, and when he regained consciousness, he was already under the old laurel tree, his feet were firmly fixed, and in his panic, he saw many strange humanoid roots emerging around the trunk, and something was attached from the ground, which made him even more helpless, and he was really afraid that he would become one of them, except that he could barely scream, and he could no longer say a clear word in his dry throat. After that, Junzi and I both saw it, but we only knew one thing about the purpose of the "third brother", and maybe after we left, he went back and did something unseemly. "Third brother" ah "third brother", I want to arrest you and beat you up from the bottom of my heart to see if you still do so many bad things, but I don't know that when we meet again, I will get my wish. For Xiaobao's father, he is actually a victim, and he should have bought a lesson, cried, and asked Xiaobao about his condition again. I reassured him that he was just a little frightened, and that it was fine, and that the most important thing now was to get out of this kind of ghost place first. The water in the channel has been flowing continuously, but the water potential is not very large, and there is a tendency to gradually decrease, and the water that flows down does not accumulate, but seeps into the ground again, and it seems that the soil here is very permeable and sticky. That's not our concern. At this time, Junko had already dug a hole in the hole where one person could pass through guò, and quickly urged us to go up first. Runzi supported me underneath, I climbed with both hands, touched a few hard stalagmites, had a grip point, and as soon as my legs climbed, it was easy to go up.
