Chapter 199: Out of the Paradise
I didn't expect Zhang Laohan to give something to himself, Ye Boyu hurriedly excused himself again and again, and said loudly: "How can this work? How can we accept such a big gift when we talk to you for a while? ”
When Zhang Laohan heard this, his eyes widened, and he said loudly: "What? My old man's things, you don't like them? If you dislike me Zhang Laohan, you won't use it here in the future." As he spoke, he was puffing and blowing in his mouth, and his beard was blowing high.
Liu Feifu was clever, took out a few fat grasses from her pocket, played with them every day, couldn't name them, and was reluctant to put them in the mustard seed space, handed them to Zhang Laohan, and said with a smile: "Uncle Zhang, you like to collect medicine, these two spirit grasses will be given to you, I hope you take good care of them." ”
Zhang Laohan stretched out his hand to take it, looked down, his face changed suddenly, and said quickly: "Worry-free flower! Female doll, where did this come from? Old man, I have picked herbs all my life, and I have seen this kind of grass once." ”
Liu Feixu said proudly: "Old uncle, this is given to me by a friend of mine in Zhongnan Mountain. It's called Sanssouci Flower, I don't know the name yet. ”
"Jungnam Mountain. Zhang Laohan looked ahead with a confused expression, holding two carefree grasses in his hands and said, "What an immortal mountain can grow such a spiritual grass." ”
"Old uncle, does this worry-free flower have any magical function?" Liu Feixu saw that Zhang Laohan was so excited, and couldn't help but be interested, tilting his head and asking.
Zhang Laohan retracted his gaze, looked at Liu Feixu, and said in a low voice: "Miss Liu, you don't know anything. This Sansso-sanctuary flower, also known as the flame flower, heard the village chief say, but when Shakyamuni Buddha was not born, his father, King Johan, and his mother, Queen Mahamaya, one night, dreamed that a white elephant came into the sky and broke into the queen's womb, and the queen became pregnant.
On the eve of the queen's birth, she took an elephant-laden chair back to her mother's house to give birth, and when she passed through the Lumbini Garden, she felt a little tired from the journey, and got off the sedan chair to rest in the garden.
Therefore, this carefree flower is the symbol of the Buddha. ”
Ye Boyu and Liu Feifu quietly listened to Zhang Laohan's words, the two glanced at each other, they didn't expect these two small yellow flowers and plants to have such an allusion, no wonder the fat Taoist gave them to Liu Feifu as treasures.
Ye Boyu couldn't help but be moved, and took a closer look, only to see that these two flowers were no different, no different from the wildflowers on the roadside, but the color was slightly more delicate than ordinary flowers.
It may just be a legend, there is nothing special about this flower, but the meaning is not ordinary, which makes people feel precious.
Zhang Laohan cherished the two flowers in his hand, shook his head and said with emotion: "Old man, I have been in this Peach Blossom Village all my life, and I have never gone outside, there are so many good things outside, if I am not old, I really want to go out to have a look, take a turn." ”
"Old uncle, then why haven't you been out for so long?" asked Liu Feixu strangely.
In fact, Ye Boyu was also very strange about this question, feeling as if no one in the village of Peach Blossom Village had ever been outside, listening to Liu Feiyu's question, he also stared at his ears to see how Zhang Laohan answered.
Zhang Laohan sighed again when he heard this, lowered his head and sat on the ridge, paused for a while, and then said slowly: "Actually, why can't we go outside, we don't know the reason." ”
"Ahh Liu Feixu hurriedly asked, "You don't know what it is." ”
"We have to start from scratch. Zhang Laohan nodded and said in a low voice: "The two of you don't know, this Peach Blossom Village is not just our generation who have not been outside, even our predecessors, none of the older generations have ever been outside, and the ancestors above have never been outside, I don't know." ”
Hearing this, Ye Boyu became interested, and listened intently to Zhang Laohan continue to speak.
"I heard from the village chief that a long time ago, at that time, our Taohua Village still had contacts with the outside world, and the population was far more than now. However, it seems that more than 300 years ago, all the villagers of our village had a strange dream at the same time one night.
It is said that on that day, all the villagers in our village dreamed that the sky of Peach Blossom Village collapsed, the ground cracked dozens of feet deep, and streams of red magma emerged, and the village suddenly became full of red flames, burning the entire Peach Blossom Village almost into a white ground, and the whole village was hiding in a corner, watching the red flames gradually burn to this corner, and they were closing their eyes and waiting for death.
Suddenly, a white light flashed in the sky, and dozens of golden-armored gods fell from the sky, extinguishing the flames, driving the magma back into the cracks in the ground, and using boundless mana to close the cracks dozens of feet deep on the ground. Saved all the villagers.
In the end, the golden-armored god said that Peach Blossom Village should have this catastrophe, but the heavenly immortals couldn't bear to bury so many villagers together, so they saved us. However, we and our descendants are required to stay in Peach Blossom Village for eternity, and we must not take half a step out of Peach Blossom Village, otherwise, a miracle will come.
Since then, the village chief has strictly ordered us not to leave Peach Blossom Village without permission. Therefore, everyone has passed it down from generation to generation, and for so many years, they have not dared to leave Peach Blossom Village for half a step. ”
"I see. Liu Feixu thought for a while, and then asked in a low voice: "These gold-armored gods are so rude, since everyone has been saved, why don't you let everyone go out? Let everyone suffocate here." ”
Zhang Laohan hurriedly said: "Feixu girl, don't offend the gods, we are very grateful to the gods for saving our lives, where do we dare to have other extravagant hopes? Besides, the mountains and rivers here are beautiful, life is comfortable and comfortable, we have been used to living for so many years." ”
Ye Boyu listened, nodded silently, feeling sorry in his heart, feeling that what Zhang Laohan said was not unreasonable, living comfortably in seclusion in such a beautiful peach blossom village all his life, compared to the sword and sword shadow outside, the unpredictable life, which is better or worse, it is really unclear.
Liu Feixu didn't think so, and continued to ask: "Old uncle, if someone leaves Peach Blossom Village, what kind of disaster will there be? After so many years, hasn't anyone left Peach Blossom Village?"
"Yes, of course. Zhang Laohan sighed and said miserably: "It is said that after a period of time for the first generation, a few young people really couldn't stand it, so they left Peach Blossom Village together, and came back a few days later, there was nothing unusual at first, but after staying in Peach Blossom Village for a few days, they died without illness on the same day, and from then on, we all never dared to cross the thunder pond half a step." ”
"Wow. God-men can also harm people. Liu Feixu said loudly: "People didn't offend them. ”
"Don't talk nonsense. Ye Boyu hurriedly said: "Feixi, there must be something hidden here, let's not be suspicious." ”
Zhang Laohan's face was sad, and he no longer spoke, just staring blankly at the carefree flower in his hand.
Ye Boyu and Liu Feixu knew that Zhang Laohan must have recalled those villagers who had died, reminisced about the past, and became sad again. Neither of them bothered, just waited quietly on the side.
Actually, Ye Boyu understands in his heart. Yun Zhongzi used the Little Mixed Yuan Bead to save the creatures within a radius of a hundred miles of Peach Blossom Village, and the countless creatures within a radius of a hundred miles have been isolated from the outside world, and they can only rely on the Yin and Yang Qi inside the Little Mixed Yuan Bead to survive for the rest of their lives, and once they leave the Little Mixed Yuan Bead, they will not be able to survive immediately. It has nothing to do with what gods and men harm people, but in this plot, Zhang Laohan is present, and he can't explain it, so he can only ask Liu Feixu to stop being suspicious.
After a while, Zhang Laohan pulled out of his thoughts, saw that Ye Boyu and Liu Feixu were still waiting for him quietly, stood up embarrassedly, and said in a loud voice: "Two, old man, I just touched the scene, and I was distracted for a long time, so I made you wait for a long time. ”
"It's okay, it's okay. Liu Feixu gave eloquence, and comforted him repeatedly: "Old uncle, we are not in a hurry, you are not polite." ”
Ye Boyu saw that Zhang Laohan's expression gradually calmed down, and said in a low voice: "Uncle Zhang, the two of us still have some things to do, or we will leave." ”
Zhang Laohan hurriedly said: "Yes, yes." The two of them just said that they were going to say goodbye to the old man, and they both blamed the old man, and the two of them had to delay for so long. ”
After a few more polite words, Ye Boyu put away the wooden box given by Zhang Laohan, walked out of Peach Blossom Village with Liu Feixi, and prepared to return to the capital along the first line of sky.
Along the way, Liu Feiyu lingered, kept looking back at the ten thousand peach trees on the edge of the stream, Ye Boyu saw this scene, promised her, when the things in hand were done, and took Liu Feifu to visit Peach Blossom Village, Liu Feifu was happy again.
When he arrived at the first line of heaven, seeing that there was no one left and right, Ye Boyu took the sword light and flew straight to the capital with Liu Feifu.
The two landed on the west mountain of the capital and walked back to Ye Boyu's mansion.
As soon as he arrived at the study, Liu Feixu couldn't wait to let Ye Boyu open the wooden box to see what Zhang Laohan had sent. Ye Boyu took out the wooden box, and with a slight force with both hands, he lifted the lid of the wooden box, only to see that there were two wax pills the size of longan inside, and there were two grooves in the box, and the two wax pills were fixed in the grooves, so there was no sound along the way.
"What is this?" Liu Feixu's eyes widened, he reached out and picked up a wax pill, looked up and down carefully for a long time, but he didn't see any clues, and put it back a little disappointed.
Ye Boyu didn't think so, just now in front of Zhang Laohan, he didn't take a good look at what was in the wooden box, but now when he opened the wooden box, he saw these two seemingly ordinary wax pills, and when he swept his eyes, he saw that there were two pills of the same size, these two pills were bright and restrained, and their plain appearance seemed to contain indescribable powerful mana.
