Chapter 16 Re-entry Fox Collection

What?

I'm your uncle!

I replied to him, "I'm not very old, I haven't learned, so I'll learn some cursing words." ”

He smiled, "The average life expectancy over there is 300 years old, and the little old man is already more than seventy, so he should be older than you, right?"

All right!

Anyway, I'm a stranger, and I don't know if what you say is true or false, so believe it for the time being.

So, may I ask you, uncle, all of you can live to be 300 years old, how can your town place a steady stream of people born and long-lived?

He glanced at me and repeated the phrase: "People in your world can't understand our world, and you always like to look at things with a narrow and unchanging sense of place."

As he spoke, he came to a raised mountain bag.

No, how could a mountain bag pop up on the prairie for no apparent reason?

And it's also a mountain bag with holes.

The little kid pointed to the hole and told me that I could go home through it.

Ay!

I really don't understand the world of foxes, why do I always deal with holes?

The cave was much smaller than the one three years ago, and you had to bend over and squeeze yourself to get in.

I even took the car and luggage and stuffed it desperately, not to mention how aggrieved I was.

Fortunately, the hole is not deep, and I didn't walk a few steps to see the light.

When I walked out of the cave, I was surprised by what I saw.

Standing at the entrance of the cave, there are thousands of lights at the foot of the mountain, exactly the same as three years ago.

Surrounded by mountains and surrounded by lush thousand-year-old trees, a thin layer of night dancing wafts over the town like a dream, and a fresh scent of sandalwood wafts through the air.

I walked quickly towards the foot of the mountain, and when I arrived at the entrance of the town, I couldn't hear a dog barking, but what I saw was a stone road with a cultural atmosphere that went straight into the town, and all the houses were blue bricks and white tiles, flying walls and birds, which were very ancient architectural style.

Slowly entering the town along the stone road, I saw red lanterns hanging on both sides of the road, and the word "fox set" was written on the lanterns.

The streets are deserted, and from time to time you can see two ancient pagodas, or two Buddha statues, in front of which sandalwood flowers and fruits are enshrined.

Ordinary houses are blue bricks and white tiles, some buildings are towering and very grand, some are delicate and elegant, and some are ingenious and creative.

From time to time, you can see a thousand-year-old tree that can only be surrounded by a few people standing quietly on the side of the street, and the thousands of branches and vines with the rich canopy open are so soft and full of the beams of ordinary people's houses, which seems to have a bit of demonic atmosphere but looks very fresh and refined.

It's not going to be a dream again, is it?

I pinched myself hard.

It hurts!

A little kid dressed as a Mongolian...... Oh no!

As usual, he wriggled his two fat calves and ran forward.

"Ahh......h Slow down!" I picked him up, and soon came to the door of a two-story apartment-style single-living courtyard with an antique architectural style.

The old man stood on tiptoe and tried to reach the nails on the two heavy red doors, but he couldn't meet the requirements. So, he looked at me again, and I immediately understood that this was the old man's home.

I smiled and walked over and gently picked up the brass ring on the door nail and knocked it a few times, and an older man's voice came from inside, "It's coming!"

Immediately, the door creaked open, and this time it was not only the old man but also his wife.

When the two birthday boys saw me, they immediately welcomed me in with a smile on their faces.

While humbly, he said again and again, "I finally saw Engong again, I must stay longer this time!"

The title of Eun Gong sounded a little unnatural to me.

Who knows if three years ago, this little old man really got lost, or did he deliberately set up a situation to wait for me to enter the cave?

As soon as I entered the courtyard gate, I still saw two angry Vajra Protectors standing on one side, which made people feel a cold murderous aura.

A small two-story building in the middle is built chic and elegant, the roof is glazed tiles, and the corner of the wall squats and sits one of the nine sons of the dragon, the mocking wind monster.

On the left and right sides of the small building are Wenxiu's art corridors, zigzag to the back of the house, in addition to the fruit tree bonsai in the front yard of the small building, there are two vegetable fields, and the swing under the grape trellis hangs down lonely.

I thought to myself, how weird!

Even if the entire town is collectively relocated from Yunnan to Inner Mongolia, it shouldn't be exactly the same as every flower, grass, soil and tree, and even the decoration of the home, the shape of the mountain behind the town, and the terrain and landform, right?

When I stepped into the front hall, I saw a statue of a god enshrined in the middle of the room, and this statue was none other than a fox bodhisattva.

This statue is different from the one on the street, and it is already very anthropomorphic. I saw this fox bodhisattva sitting in front of the desk, wearing the gorgeous clothes of human beings, wearing an official hat of the ancients, and even a pair of glasses on his nose.

The old man still received me with fragrant fruit pastries.

I didn't forget to ask, "May I ask the old man how long he lives?"

He stroked his beard and told me with a smile that he was close to 300 years old this year, and his wife was just over 250.

He also told me that in fact, his age is not considered to be a high life here, and there are still some people who have cultivated for thousands of years.

I asked, that is much better than ours, and many of us who are over 70 years old have begun to live on drugs, and life is worse than death. How do you do that?

He smiled, you see that the air, water, and food we have here are the most natural, plus the whole people believe in Buddhism and the blessings of the Bodhisattva, so it is not surprising.

As far as I know, there are still centenarians among you, but most of them live in rural areas, and the environment is close to ours, so they have no illness and no disasters all their lives, and finally die peacefully and naturally.

As he spoke, a young woman who seemed to be about eighteen years old walked down the stairs with Tingting.

It was none other than the bear child...... Oh, no, Uncle Bear's sister.

This is the second time I have met her, but she is still shy, and I can't help but think of the poem by Li Qingzhao, a famous female lyricist in the Song Dynasty.

Kick off the swing and get up and straighten your slender hands.

Lunon flowers are thin, thin sweat and light clothes.

Seeing the guests entering, the socks slipped through the golden hairpins.

and ashamed to go, leaning on the door and looking back, but sniffing the green plums.

-"Lip Tapping"-

I thought to myself, Uncle Xiong is in his seventies, and his sister should be at least in her eighties, but why is she still so shy?

The most beautiful thing in a woman is nothing else, but shame.

But in the world I live in, women are less shy the older they get.

It seems that shyness is not the patent of the girls, but also the characteristics of the children of the Tianshan Mountains.

After drinking tea for a while and eating some fragrant fruit, the old man still smiled and said humbly, "The son has come from afar, and he must have been tired of driving and horses, so it is better to rest early!"

He still took me to a side room on the first floor, "Hot water and towels are ready, son, just wash and sleep!" After saying that, he turned around and went upstairs.

I pushed open the door, and a long-lost fragrance immediately came to the surface.

The interior of the house is still freshly decorated, exactly the same as it was three years ago.

Antique wallpaper, corner cabinets, bookcases, dressers, and wardrobes are stacked in an orderly manner, and a large arhat bed is in the center, with all the futon and white tent hanging from the bedside.

The bookcase is still full of original thread-bound ancient book collections, and you have to exchange at least 10,000 yuan for a random copy to the Beijing antique market.

The furniture is still so awesome! It's all pure mahogany, either sandalwood or wenge. The bedside table of a small yellow pear is worth at least a few thousand dollars on the market.

The futon on the bed is still embroidered exquisitely, with Shu embroidery techniques and Suzhou embroidery techniques; Mandarin ducks playing in the water, auspicious beasts, all lifelike.

Even though it's a guest room, I can still smell the smell I had three years ago.

Intuitively, no one else has stayed since that night three years ago.

After all, this fox fairy world is not something that anyone can come to if they want to, and it seems that this guest room is also prepared for me alone.

After soaking in the barrel bath, I took a pink bath towel that had been prepared by the barrel and wrapped myself naked into the comfortable futon on the Luohan bed.

The bedside table next to the bed has already been placed with flower tea and pastry cakes, and the fragrant fragrance surrounds me all over the room, which is simply a presidential suite-level enjoyment!

That night, I slept comfortably, as if I was at home, and I dreamed of all the good things.

When I woke up the next morning, a ray of sunlight was shining through the screen window, and the room was a different scene, with the pure and noble mahogany furniture showing a different style.

Pushing open the door and walking into the courtyard, I saw that the sun had already sloped up the eastern slope, and the old man was still plowing the vegetable field with his wife.

The old lady was still dressed in clean and elegant clothes, and said to me with a kind face, "Breakfast is ready, just wait for you to get up, and let's go in and enjoy it together." ”

The breakfast was still unusually rich, with milk, eggs, bread, enema, and a variety of fruits and vegetables.

Two children, oh no! The children of the two old men were also old men, one barely took a few mouthfuls and went up the stairs shyly, and the other did not know where to run and play early in the morning.

The old lady still looked at me with a smile, asked this and that, and finally added, "I asked my distant niece to take you around, she is the same age as you, she is well-read, she knows everything about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, ......and she will definitely be able to talk to you; She has not yet been left the cabinet. ”

When she said the last few words, the old lady deliberately accentuated her tone and handed me a complicated expression.

This expression...... I know what it means - but not for a moment.

After breakfast, the old lady still happily ran to find her eldest niece, the old man continued to pick up his vegetable garden, and I still chatted with the old man while helping, and inquired about some things here by the way.

I asked the old man, "Old man, have you ever moved this town?"

He told me that there was none.

That's strange, last time I came in from the Yunnan border, but this time I came in from the Inner Mongolia border.

The town is such a big town, and Yunnan and Inner Mongolia are thousands of miles apart, what is going on?

The old man smiled back at me, he didn't read much, and he didn't know how to explain it to me, but their world was like this, he had lived here all his life, and he was already familiar with this kind of thing.

My niece knows a lot, so I might as well ask her for advice in person later.
