Chapter 30 Wood Zen Flower
Han Meng and Liu Yiyi walked west with the thief, and only learned that the thief's name was Erwa, and his ancestors had been farming for large families for generations. Because my mother needed a lot of precious medicinal materials for medical treatment, there was not much money left in the family within a few days, so she had to become a thief.
From the conversation, Han Meng felt that the person in front of him called Erwa was a very filial person, and he could see his own shadow in him, Han Meng thought that it would be great if he could be by his mother's side now, at least he could do his filial piety in front of his mother.
After a while, Han Meng and Liu Yiyi followed Erwa to the door of a courtyard and stopped, looking up, the courtyard gate was made of several broken wooden planks, and the courtyard wall was also made of small branches connected together.
"Brother Han and Sister Yiyi, don't stand outside, come in," Erwa said and greeted Han Meng and the others inside.
"Uh-huh, okay".
As soon as he walked into the courtyard, a puppy ran over, barking incessantly, Liu Yiyi looked at the puppy in front of him, and saw that it was skinny and skinny. Erwa walked in front and quickly opened the door of the hall, and shouted loudly inside: There is a guest in my mother's house.
Han Meng walked into the house and looked east, on a bed made of wooden planks, on which was sitting an old mother who looked to be in her sixties, maybe the old mother heard the words of the second baby and was about to get up to greet Han Meng and Liu Yiyi.
"Baby, you said that a guest is coming," the old mother on the bed stood up slowly, picked up the crutches placed on the side of the bed with both hands and walked slowly towards the second baby. Seeing this, Han Meng hurriedly stepped forward and stretched out his hand to support his mother.
Han Meng looked at Erwa's mother, she seemed to have something wrong with her eyes, because when she got up to get up and take the cane, she touched it several times before she found it.
"Auntie, don't get up, sit on the bed quickly, I don't have easy to see your eyes," Han Meng said, stepped forward and helped the old mother to the side of the bed. Slowly let the mother of the second baby sit on the bed, and looked around again, only to see that there were no decent belongings in the house, and the only thing that could support the façade was the sculpture in the middle of the hall.
"You're a friend of the baby, what's your name, why haven't I heard of it."
"Hehe, Auntie, I and the second baby just met, I heard him say that you are not in good health, so I will bring a little thing to see your old man" Saying that, Han Meng looked at Liu Yiyi, Liu Yiyi still didn't understand what Han Meng was thinking, so he smiled and handed the things in his hand to the second baby. Liu Yiyi gave the things in his hand to Erwa, and his eyes looked at Han Meng's heart and said: I knew that you would do this, okay, listen to you.
"Look at how embarrassing Sister Yiyi is, I, I don't know how to thank you."
Liu Yiyi waved his hand and said: This thing is nothing, let's take a look at the eldest lady.
"Second baby, how did I hear the voice of a girl, who is he?"
"Look at my brain, I forgot to introduce you to the names of the two of them," Erwa walked up to his mother and introduced her loudly.
Han Meng chatted with Erwa's mother for a while, and then told Han Meng and Liu Yiyi the reason why her eyes couldn't see things.
"Because the second baby and his father died early, the family lost its labor. At that time, the second baby was still young, so in order to support her, I went to the mountains behind the town to collect medicinal herbs to sell. At that time, I heard the owner of the pharmacy say that a medicinal herb called Muzen flower is very expensive, and he said that if we can find a Muzen flower, we can eat it for two years, and when I heard this, I was tempted, so I didn't think about whether it would be dangerous, so I went to the back mountain to look for Muzen flower according to what he said.
"Then did you find it", Liu Yiyi asked.
Erwaniang asked Liu Yiyi to come to her and asked her to sit on the bed, Erwaniang took Liu Yiyi by the hand and continued: So the next morning, I entrusted Erwa to my neighbor Aunt Wang, and I took the rope and carried Zhulou to the back mountain.
When I came to the back mountain, I felt that the back mountain was obviously much higher, and I thought about coming to the back mountain two years ago, but when I looked at the mountain in front of me, I felt that something was wrong, but I couldn't tell what was wrong. At that time, I was bent on finding the wood Zen flower, so I didn't pay attention to it.
I looked around the mountain, but I couldn't find anything, at this time I was very anxious, I looked up and saw that it was almost morning, and thought that the second baby was also hungry, so I was going to go back.
Just as I was about to go back down the mountain, I suddenly smelled a very fragrant smell. So I smelled the fragrance and looked for it, and slowly I walked to the steepest part of the mountain, and I looked down and saw a flower. I saw it slowly emitting a wisp of smoke in the sun's rays.
I remembered that the owner of the herb shop had told me about the characteristics of the Wood Zen flower, and I took a closer look at the flower in front of me.
"Hehe, that's her," I said excitedly.
I quickly tied the rope to a stone on the mountain, so I slowly descended along the rope to the middle of the mountain, and I reached out to pick the wood flower, but it was only a little bit away. So I swung the rope back and forth a few times, and I suddenly reached out my hand, and at this moment I got the wooden Zen flower.
After Mu Zenhua got my hand, I slowly climbed up, and when I was about to reach the top of the mountain, the rope suddenly broke, "Ah~ah~" I screamed loudly, and my body fell rapidly. Fortunately, my life was big, and I was blocked by a small tree as I fell, but the tree was too small to withstand my gravity. With a "snap" I fell and fainted.
"Didn't you see when you woke up?" asked Han Meng.
"When I woke up, I didn't feel anything wrong, so I took the wood Zen flower and rushed to the medicine store."
"Boss, is this the wood Zen flower you are talking about?" I took out the flower and showed it to him.
When the pharmacy owner saw the flower in my hand, he took it with trembling hands, and he said that it seemed that the legend was true, and asked me how I got it, and how I defeated the wooden dragon.
"Boss, I don't understand what you're saying."
"Hehe, nothing, give, take the money and go back," the boss looked at me, took out five taels of silver from his pocket and said.
"Uh-huh, let's go".
I took the money and left, and when I got home, I quickly took the second baby home. But that night I had a strange dream, and in the middle of the night I was suddenly awakened by this dream, and I still remember this dream, and if it were not for it, I would not have known that there would be such a legend, and I would not have been blind.
