375, Gu Wang Fan Shou (3)
Guarding the young master? I think Basho calls Fan Shou like this, which is very unpleasant. Not only did I feel so, but Fan Shou himself also felt uncomfortable, and said lightly to her: "Just call me Fan Shou." You personally sent Bai Shouyu to the Red Frog Ancient City? So, how are they doing? β
"All good, and ......"
Basho glanced at me, then lifted his feet, put his hand on Fan Shou's ear, and whispered something. Originally, Fan Shou still rejected her actions and wanted to dodge it, but then he seemed to be attracted by what she said, his frowning thick eyebrows were loosened, and he looked at Taohong with a touch of tenderness in his eyes.
I was surprised at what she said to Fan Shou, when Fan Shi had already prepared the barbecue with banana leaves by the fire and called for us to come and eat. So, Basho smiled and took a few steps back, still calling Fan Shou as the young master and letting him go to dinner.
Fan Shou pulled me to sit by the fire, took the barbecue handed by Fan Shishi, and let me eat it. I hadn't eaten since noon yesterday, so I was so hungry that I couldn't help but eat as soon as I smelled the barbecue.
To tell the truth, in this kind of dense forest, that is, with Fan Shou and them, I can only eat, if I were myself, I would have starved to death.
After eating half full, I asked Fan Shou what the banana had just told him, but Fan Shou didn't answer me, but only urged me to hurry up and eat well.
Because I learned that the children were in the Red Frog Ancient City, and we were going to rush there in a while, I didn't ask Fan Shou about it. After eating the rest of the barbecue quickly, I felt a lot more strength. RosΓ© They are quite thoughtful, let's replenish our energy before we go, otherwise, I am really too weak to walk.
When I was done, we set off with RosΓ© and Plantain.
Along the way, Fan Shou walked by my hand, and he carried me on some difficult mountain roads. I'm used to it, but when Peach sees it, she will angrily rip me off and scold me for being squeamish. I was very embarrassed to be scolded, so when I encountered a difficult road, I wanted to walk by myself, but Fan Shou didn't worry about me. He also said that if I got hurt, that would really be a drag on him. I couldn't resist him, so I had to obey.
The climate here is humid and hot, which is suitable for the growth of flora and fauna, so the woods we pass through are dense and there are many kinds of animals, and I can't name many of them. Fortunately, we are Gu keepers, and we have the smell of all kinds of poisons, so that the mosquitoes and other insects in the woods avoid us, otherwise, we will inevitably be attacked by them.
After walking for half a day, not only did I not go out of the dense forest, but I also walked into the denser woods, but many of the trees in this forest were fruit trees, such as wild lychee trees, banana trees, and so on. When Fan Shou saw that there were ripe lychees, he broke off a few branches and gave them to us to eat.
After walking for too long, my tired mouth was dry, and when I saw the edible lychee, everyone did not hold back, but quickly peeled off the skin and ate it.
"After this lychee forest, you will arrive at the red thorn forest on the periphery of the Red Frog Ancient City, you should be careful, don't get pierced and cut your skin." Basho was the first to finish eating a lychee, and after throwing down the empty branch, he reminded us.
She is from here and often eats lychees, so it is natural for her to eat quickly. But so far, I've only eaten half of it.
After her reminder, we were all mentally prepared to know that there would be a lot of thorny plants on the road ahead, just like the bushes here.
However, when we actually stood at the entrance of the Red Thorn Forest, we were all shocked. I really didn't expect this red thorn tree to grow so tall, it is really a veritable "red thorn forest"! The trunks of the trees are covered with long, pointed thorns. Under the roots of the tree, you can occasionally see red frogs with red bodies and croaking.
Seeing these long thorns, I remembered the thorns poked on Yaya Eminem's body, so I asked Taohong, who led the way in front, "Red Frog Ancient City, is it also called Red Frog Village?" β
I remember that Yaya's family was locked up here, and I don't know if I can ask her to release Yaya's family by the way.
Taohong ignored me, but looked at Fan Shou, "The thorns of these trees are poisonous, and those red frogs are poisonous, even if they are witches who are invincible, it is difficult to detoxify, so you should be careful for a while." β
At the end of the sentence she lifted up her feet and went into the woods.
As a result, as soon as he lifted his foot, he was grabbed by Fan Shou's arm, "I'll go ahead, you can follow me and show the way." β
As he spoke, Fan Shou drew a dagger from his waist and stomped his feet to scare away the red frogs under the roots of the trees while cutting off the thorns blocking the way in front of him.
I was still worried about how to get past just now, but now that Fan Shou has solved the problem, I feel a lot more relaxed.
"Master, I'm with you!" Seeing this, Fan Shi also quickly took out a dagger from the side pocket of his backpack and went to help Fan Shou.
With Fan Shou and Fan Shi clearing the road in front, it would be easy for the three of us women to walk. After walking like this for an hour, I finally walked out of the black and oppressive red thorn forest.
As soon as we walked out, what appeared in front of us was another world, because as soon as we walked out, we stood on the cliff, and below was a valley surrounded by mountains on all sides, and there were more than a dozen ancient stilted buildings in the valley!
In front of the stilted building is a stone road, on the road there are people with banana leaves spread on the ground to set up stalls to sell things, and there are also people to buy things, they are wearing the kind of clothes of Dafan villagers, I have some illusions at this time, I feel like I have returned to Dafan Village.
"This is Red Frog Village?" Fan Shou pointed to the village below the valley and asked in surprise at Peach on the side.
Peach Red withdrew her gaze from the valley and looked at Fan Shoudao: "It's not Red Frog Village, it's Red Frog Ancient City." Every stilted building here is 100 years old. β
"Hundred ......years of history," Fan Shou pinched his chin when he heard this, rolled his eyes, his eyes flashed, and he asked excitedly towards Taohong, "Could it be that this is also the realm of the Miao Gu clan?" β
"Hmm. In order to build a tomb, the Living Gu people took away half of the people in the Miao Gu Clan. After the death of the living Gu people, this half of the people chose to stay here and settle down. Gradually, the stilted buildings here were built one after another. It became a city, a city like a paradise. After briefly telling Fan Shou about the origin of this place, Peach jumped to the bottom of the cliff and jumped down!
"Ahh I saw her jump and reflexively exclaimed.
Who knows, my shout actually attracted Basho's laughter, "Haha, Miss Chen, don't be afraid, there is a pool at the bottom of the cliff, jumping down is equivalent to taking a bath, it doesn't matter." β
There's a waterhole down there? As soon as I heard that there was a pool, it didn't take long for me to hear the sound of a pink falling like a pool.
I hurriedly looked down at the bottom of the cliff, and sure enough, I saw Pink swimming up to the surface from the bottom of the pool. As soon as she came out of the water, she reached out to wipe the water from her face, looked up at us, and shouted, "What are you still doing in a daze?" Jump! β
Is she a woman, such a high cliff, she jumped when she said it, and the key is that she called us to jump with her...... Originally, I was afraid of heights, and I was asked to dive high......
"Miss Basho, is there any other way to enter the Red Frog Ancient City?" I would retract my gaze and ask at Basho.
Basho reached out and stroked a strand of hair that had been blown by the wind, and replied to me, "No." β
...... "I chuckled in my heart, which means that I have to jump if I don't jump?"
"Wife, you are also the Gu woman of Dafan Village, I, the legendary wife of the Gu world, if I don't have the courage at all, how embarrassing it is? So, don't be afraid, I'll hold you and jump, you just have to remember not to let go of me. Fan Shou saw that I was scared, checked that I came over, hugged me into his arms, and kissed me dotingly.
However, just after he kissed me, I saw that Basho suddenly jumped and fell into the pool.
"Master, master, I'll go down and see if it's in danger." Then, Fan Shi also jumped down.
I looked at the splash of water under the pool, envious, and at the same time trembling with fear, I really didn't dare to jump!
"It's just the two of us, and if we don't jump down, we'll be seen as a joke." Fan Shou paused for a moment, and then, without me noticing, he pulled me into his arms with a sharp tug, and before I could stand firmly, his body went to the bottom of the cliff......
"Ah......h
I didn't expect him to jump down with this sudden hug, and I was so scared that my heart was about to run out.
