Chapter 63: Old Ginseng
I was a little dazed for a moment, not understanding what was happening, but I listened to Tofu's description that when he came to his senses, the fairy rat had already been beaten. My whole expression was distorted and hideous, and I took Gu Wenmin's heavy camera in my hand, and kept smashing it on the mouth of the fairy mouse. The fairy rat was camouflaged with fur to the soles of his feet, but unfortunately he couldn't protect his nose and mouth, and I smashed the fairy mouse's mouth into two halves in frenzy.
And as the rat fell to the ground, the bats in the cave suddenly became in a commotion, and before I could figure out the specific situation, those things had vibrated and fluttered with flesh wings, but this time they were actually biting us.
There were so many bats that we were bitten several times almost instantly, and in a hurry, we could only shake our backpacks and try to keep the bats out of the way, and rushed all the way to the entrance of the cave in blood.
At this moment, it was dawn outside, and bright sunlight was shining through the entrance of the cave, and as soon as they rushed to the entrance of the cave, the things inside the cave stopped pursuing. The three of us looked at each other, although there were no fatal injuries that hurt the bones, but we were covered in blood, and in the morning light, it looked a little shocking.
I couldn't help but be secretly shocked, if I had lingered in that hallucination for a few more moments, I am afraid that by this time, I would have become a pile of flesh and bones that had been eaten. The ancients said that in the mouth of the fairy mouse, there is a 'dream containing elixir' that can make people enter the fairyland, but now it seems that it is a smell that makes people fall into illusion, and the more regrets and pursuits in the heart, the more satisfied they will be in the illusion.
I met my grandfather, and Tofu met his father. What about Gu Wenmin? Why did she shoot me when she hallucinated?
At this time, the three of us were also a little exhausted after the catastrophe, although I had doubts in my heart, now was not the time to ask, when even said: "There is no danger, fortunately, I saved my life." Lin Fatzi's two people are too vicious, I didn't want to care about this matter, but now I have to take care of it. "I said this to Gu Wenmin on purpose, and she herself said it in the Golden Vein Tunnel, and I saw that Tofu and I were not just here to travel.
In any case, robbing tombs and digging mushrooms is an unsightly business. If Gu Wenmin is a ruthless, insidious and cunning person like Lin Fatzi, then I am not afraid of being discovered by her, it is a big deal to kill people afterwards, this barren mountains and mountains, it is too convenient to start.
Tofu has always said that I am a person with black hands, I admit this, but black hands do not mean wolf heart and dog lungs, although Gu Wenmin does not know what the purpose is, but he is definitely not a bad person, if she knows about it, what should I do? Could it be that he killed her and killed her?
Although I have black hands, I naturally can't do this. Rather than that, the best thing to do is to dispel her suspicions about me and Tofu.
After I finished speaking, Tofu also scolded: "That little beauty looks like a fairy, but her heart is like a poisonous snake." Zhang Wuji's words are right: beautiful women are not good things. ”
I said in my heart, wouldn't this scold Gu Wenmin as well? So he hurriedly said: "The good and evil of the soul have nothing to do with appearance. Let's not dwell on this topic, let's get out of here first and find a place to rest. ”
At that moment, the three of us went down the rope to the bottom of the valley, found a stream of water, and treated the wounds, and then breathed a sigh of relief.
At this moment, the three of us sat by the stream, it was about nine o'clock in the morning, it was a good time to hurry, but it was a pity that the three of us had been running all night and had some flesh wounds, and we were already exhausted, and we could not move forward, so we ate some dry food at will, and slept deeply by the stream.
I slept darkly, and when I woke up, it was about three o'clock in the afternoon, Gu Wenmin woke up earlier than us, set up a bonfire, and I don't know when I caught two fish in the stream, and they were roasting on the fire at the moment.
As soon as the tofu woke up, he had something to eat, and he forgot about anything unpleasant, and slapped Gu Wenmin wildly, Gu Wenmin was very comfortable by him, and gave the grilled fish to the tofu first, this kid was afraid that I would rob him, so he twisted the fish and found a place away from me, and ate it with a loud voice.
I just felt angry and funny, and I was about to educate me that tofu should not be eaten alone, but when I looked up, I found that Gu Wenmin's dark eyes were staring at me, and my lips were very tight.
The moment they looked at each other, her expression softened, the corners of her lips were slightly raised, and she said softly: "Can you tell me now, what are you doing when you enter the mountain?" ”
I knew that she would have this question, and I already had a plan in my heart, so I picked a painless reason and said, "If I say that the two of us went into the mountains to dig ginseng, do you believe it?" ”
"Ginseng?" Gu Wenmin's slender eyebrows wrinkled slightly, and his voice was full of doubt, and he said, "Come here to dig ginseng?" ”
I don't want Gu Wenmin to be completely convinced, as long as I can deal with the past, when the time comes, halfway through, it's best to find a way to get rid of her, pat her ass and leave.
While thinking, I said, "The two of us are the ones who poured wild ginseng." This thing is hugely profitable, digging three or five trees, it's enough for me to eat for a year. Now that prices are rising, life is too difficult without getting some outside water. Wen Min, at first glance, you are not the master who is short of money, but our brothers are different, there is an eighty-year-old mother, a three-year-old child waiting to be fed, plus a loser wife who goes to Taobao every day, and if she doesn't want to make money, she has to go to the street to ask for food. ”
When Gu Wenmin heard this, he raised his eyebrows and said in surprise: "Do you have a daughter-in-law?" ”
I was stunned for a moment, and my heart said that I had said a long list, how could she remember this? Without waiting for me to speak, Gu Wenmin shook his head, his voice was a little cold, and he said slowly: "Digging ginseng is not a big deal, but you don't go to Changbai Mountain to dig ginseng, are you going the wrong way to come to this place?" ”
I saw that she seemed to believe a little, so I immediately blew hard, and said, "You don't understand this." Changbai Mountain is a treasure land for the production of ginseng, but that place is now almost hollowed out by visitors, and it is difficult to see the shadow of ginseng for a long time, but these inaccessible canyons and deep mountains are the easiest to find. When I came, I heard people say that this Wuling Mountain Range is a place where dragons and tigers are standing and spiritual energy is loved, and there are countless mountains and treasures in the depths of Baoshan. Haven't you heard the story of 'Meng Jiefang smashed the temple in anger, and the old lady returned to heaven'? ”
Gu Wenmin shook his head, and when I saw that I had successfully diverted her attention, I took out my housekeeping skills and was determined to stun her. Although I usually don't talk much, but when I really should speak, I can say that the Yellow River is cut off and the Yangtze River is regressing, which is all practiced by going south and north, if it weren't for that person, I would really be too lazy to speak.
When even when he told her about smashing the temple in anger, Gu Wenmin was quickly attracted to it, and he completely forgot to ask anything else.
It is said that when the whole country was just liberated, there were many mountain people in Wuling Mountain who made a living by digging mountain treasures, such as black treasures, mushrooms, ginseng, sesame grass and other things.
There is a temple dedicated to a man with a white beard. It is said that this ginseng is an old ginseng who has become a fine man, and often transforms into the form of an old man and walks in the mountains. Lao Ginseng is kind-hearted, and if he encounters someone who is sick in the mountains, he will pluck off a few of his heads and send them to that person. As soon as the hair is pulled out, it will turn into ginseng, boil the soup and take it, all diseases are eliminated, it is to the local people to repair the temple to worship, before going into the mountain to dig the mountain treasures, or if there is any disease at home, they have to go to the temple to worship, it is very effective.
At that time, the crackdown on feudal superstition had already begun, but it was not so strict, so everyone should worship the same. There is a man named Meng Jiefang, who is a bastard who does not learn and has no skills, but he is very filial to his mother.
His mother was seriously ill, and the medicine stone was spiritual, so she was liberated from crooked thoughts, and said in her heart: People say that eating ginseng that has become essence can increase longevity and blessings, and live with Peng Zu. Now that my mother is seriously ill, why don't I arrest that old ginseng?
Thinking like this, he squatted in the temple for a few days, day and night, and saw an old man with white hair and fairy wind bones walking towards the temple, the old man asked him what he wanted, Meng Jiefang opened his mouth and said a word, and his voice was very small.
The old ginseng couldn't tell the difference, so he stepped forward again, but who knew that under the straw in front of him, it was all sesame oil.
There is a saying among local folks that all spirits such as plants are afraid of sesame oil, and they will show their original form when they step on it. The old ginseng was blinded by the straw, stepped on it, screamed in an instant, turned into an old mountain ginseng, and struggled on the ground.
Meng Jiefang immediately took off his clothes, wrapped the old ginseng, hurried home, and said happily: "Mother, now you are saved, our mother and son eat the old ginseng meat, and they will definitely be able to learn from Peng Zu and live for seven or eight hundred years." After that, I shook off my clothes and prepared for ginseng, but when I opened it, I saw that there was no ginseng inside, it was actually a bunch of shit!
Meng Jiefang knew that he was tricked by ginseng, so he smashed the temple in a fit of rage, but when he returned home, he found that the old lady had died and had bruises on her neck, which was obviously strangled to death.
Gu Wenmin listened with relish and said, "In this way, it was the old ginseng who strangled his mother to death. There is a debtor and a debtor, why didn't he seek liberation, but his mother for revenge? ”
I said to myself, "Then you'll have to ask the old goblin." said on his lips: "If you don't raise it, it's your father's fault, and your father died long ago, so of course this account will be counted on his mother's head." This story tells us that our children must be taught well, otherwise we will get into trouble and affect our parents. Wherever there is old ginseng, ginseng will inevitably come out. Regardless of whether this liberated thing is true or not, but the temple of ginseng is really there, so it is definitely not wrong to come here to dig ginseng. ”
