Chapter 16: The Mysterious Valley
A mountain range, a forest, a green ocean undulating, wolves and tigers roaring in the forest, from time to time a big thing flying in the forest, circling in the air, and then pounced into the forest.
This is definitely a Jedi for humanity.
But there is a strange combination in this forest, a man is sixteen or seventeen years old, with a delicate face still a little immature, a pair of star-like eyes, revealing a composure and calmness that is obviously inconsistent with his age.
There was a little fox lying on his shoulder, his fur was like satin, snow-white and shiny, and a pair of big sky-blue eyes, squinting slightly, lying on the man's shoulder with a look of enjoyment.
This person and a fox are Qin Nuo and the little fox he saved, at that time, Qin Nuo treated the little fox's injuries, thinking that it would run away immediately, but no, Qin Nuo still remembers it now, and he feels amazing.
When Qin Nuo noticed it, the little fox was raising his head, with a pair of big sky-blue eyes, looking at Qin Nuo fixedly, his eyes were full of confusion, surprise, and overwhelm.
Qin Nuo looked at that look but was a little in a trance, that look was like a girl looking at her beloved, a pair of big eyes reflected the purest place in her heart, not rhymed with the world, extremely soft.
One person and one fox looked at each other for a long time, as if they had exchanged hearts with each other, which seemed so strange and weird.
In the end, it was Qin Nuo who interrupted this beautiful gaze when he was at a loss, "What's the matter? Qin Nuo shook his head.
In this way, under this strange acquaintance, Qin Nuo met this partner and confidant who had been with him all his life. I have to say that fate is like the empty gardenia when you wake up from a dream, how can you blindly speak lightly at a loss.
Qin Nuo walked in this mountain range for a long time, and kept walking in one direction, as Qin Nuo went deeper, the call became clearer and clearer, and Qin Nuo kept moving in one direction according to that sense.
It didn't take long for Qin Nuo to move forward but found that there was no way, at this time a mountain cliff appeared in front of Qin Nuo, and there was a thorn bush in front of the cliff, but Qin Nuo's sense came from the front of the cliff.
Qin Nuo looked at the cliff and turned his head to look at the little fox lying on his shoulder, "You say, should we go in, or go in, or go in?"
The little fox on his shoulder listened to Qin Nuo's almost scoundrel words, raised his head and squinted at Qin Nuo, and finally gave Qin Nuo a roll of his eyes, and continued to lie on Qin Nuo's shoulder and fell asleep, it seemed that Qin Nuo's shoulder was more powerful than himself, so he ignored Qin Nuo's gorgeous face.
"Oh you, you still despise me, do you know, if not" Qin Nuo saw that the little fox gave him a roll of the eyes, and began to make his own tirade, how much he wasted his strength, how much he was but was ignored by the little fox.
Qin Nuo sensed the direction in which the summoning was coming, and made sure that it was coming from the front, so he walked forward and walked into the thorn bush, the expected sting was not felt, and even Qin Nuo did not feel that he had touched anything.
Just like that, it passed through the thorn bushes, and it was like a shadow projected here, and everything turned out to be fake.
Qin Nuo was shocked beyond measure, but there was such a phantom in this place, this is the maze laid by the ancients, or the stereoscopic projection of future technology, but this is not touched, and the real feeling that it is absolutely impossible to distinguish is so clear, Qin Nuo looked at a small grass under his feet swaying with the breeze, stepping on one foot, and the grass really penetrated into the surface of his feet. Everything is fake.
Qin Nuo felt that his hair stood on end, this is the ancient times when someone was able to cultivate, and he laid a maze here, or was this world already invaded by alien creatures, leaving a projection here.
If it was a maze laid by the ancients, then what was he trying to hide? Or was it a projection left by aliens, so what did he want to express?
Qin Nuo thought a lot for a moment, and since he entered this thorn bush, the feeling suddenly became clear, obviously coming from the cliff in front of him.
The little fox lying on his shoulder also opened his big azure eyes and looked around curiously, stretched out his little paw and gently scratched the thorny branches around him, but the little paw passed through.
Qin Nuo slowly walked towards the cliff, and when he got closer, it was really fake, and when he stepped out, a white light suddenly came into his eyes, which made Qin Nuo squint, and then his eyes widened in surprise by the world in front of him.
The spring water in the ears is tinkling, and all kinds of extinct trees from the outside world are all over the valley, and the whole valley is purple and red from the inside to the outside, and at the mouth of the valley, an osmanthus tree is wafting with light incense.
In the valley, a plane tree is full of red, and there are rows of thatched huts under the trees, and all kinds of small animals are infested near the thatched huts. A scene of paradise.
Walking into the valley, the valley is full of aged herbs, exuding a unique fragrance, and you can even see some ginseng, the thickness of an arm, growing in the middle of those herbs.
I don't know where a little white rabbit jumped out, picked up a large ginseng, and gnawed it like a radish.
Qin Nuo kept looking everywhere as if he had discovered a new continent, but the little fox on his shoulder was running with the rabbit to grab ginseng to eat, but before he got close, the rabbit ran away, leaving the little fox to look at the fleeing rabbit with wide eyes, and decisively did not chase it, but in a blink of an eye, he found that a Ganoderma lucidum was growing there behind a stone. Immediately ran over with a happy face.
Qin Nuo kept looking at this peculiar valley, this valley seemed to have its own season, and it belonged to a completely different world from the outside world, and all kinds of plants and animals that had become extinct in the outside world were emerging here in endlessly.
"Ding" "Ding" A sound of metal clashing came, listening to this rhythm, it seemed that someone was striking iron,
Qin Nuo looked in the direction where the voice came from, and next to the row of thatched houses, an old man appeared at some point, standing next to a stove and beating on something.
The old man's hair was all snow-white, ** upper body, red face, a big hammer, was picked up with one hand, kept beating on a round iron sheet, that skillful technique, definitely a forging master.
Qin Nuo slowly approached, and at this time, the little fox also ran back, lying on Qin Nuo's shoulder, holding a fiery red Ganoderma lucidum in his hand with a row of tooth marks on it.
The little fox seemed to be very righteous, and stretched out the lingzhi in his hand to Qin Nuo's mouth, that means, I invite you to eat! Qin Nuo looked at the circle of small tooth marks, and finally didn't put his mouth down after looking at it for a long time.
The little fox doesn't care so much, since you don't eat it, I'll eat it.
Qin Nuo got closer, the hammer hit the iron sheet, sparks splashed everywhere, Qin Nuo stood aside and watched, and the old man continued to hit the iron as if he hadn't noticed Qin Nuo.
I don't know how long it took, the iron sheet was beaten into a regular circle by the old man, the old man stopped the hammer in his hand, "Young man, although I don't know how you got in, but to be able to come here is fate, after watching the old man, I hit the iron for a long time, do you see anything?"
The old man picked up the round iron piece, without raising his head, and examined his work.
"I only know that you are striking iron, and I don't understand anything else. Qin Nuo replied honestly.
As if the answer was unexpected, the old man raised his head and looked at Qin Nuo, "The young man is quite honest, which is quite in line with the old man's temper." Haha! I don't know how much the kid drinks? How about I have two glasses with Lao Tzu?" The old man didn't ask Qin Nuo where he came from, didn't ask Qin Nuo's name, he even came up and asked Qin Nuo to drink with him, it seems that he is also an old guy who doesn't follow the routine.
In the house, the old man quickly served two cold dishes, mixed with small ginseng, and cooled the fire Ganoderma lucidum. Qin Nuo looked at these two dishes, and finally understood what it meant to be high-end and high-grade.
Then the old man took out a wooden barrel, and as soon as he opened the lid, the fragrance instantly made Qin Nuo drunk, what kind of wine is this? How can it be so fragrant!
"This is a fine wine made by me picking all over the valley and using 108 herbs and 33 strange insects, which is absolutely amazing. It seems that in order to confirm what the old man said, the little fox got drunk just by smelling the wine.
Then there is an old man and a young man, and they start to fight for wine, Qin Nuo is strong willpower and drinks it completely, while the old man is completely drunk to the limit, these two people drank straight for a day and a night, during which the little fox woke up and then got drunk, drunk and then woke up, and then drunk.
In the end, Qin Nuo couldn't stand it, and this wine fight ended with Qin Nuo admitting defeat, and the old man patted Qin Nuo's shoulder, "Good boy, I have the demeanor of the year." Then he fell to the ground with a thud, and Qin Nuo looked at the old man who fell to the ground. Get up and go to the bathroom.
