Chapter 4: The Little Girl

"Grandpa, what's going on, why does it seem like a child is crying?"

"Grandpa doesn't know, you wait here, I'll go see where the sound is coming from. "The old man put the meat on the stone. Holding the torch, he followed the child's crying and searching, and after walking less than 20 steps, he found that the sound seemed to come from under a large tree.

The old man walked over, and he found that a little girl who was extremely beautiful and very cute was lying under the tree and weeping bitterly, dressed in what seemed to be a royal yellow lin, but it was already in tatters, and her body was covered with dust and leaves, and the child's face was pale, and there was no trace of blood at all.

This situation and this scene seem familiar. The old man was in a trance, he seemed to see the scene when he saw Qinglong in the temple 3 years ago, when Qinglong was also helpless, his face was also pale, his clothes were in tatters, the only difference was that he didn't cry.

The old man's heart was suddenly surging, he knew that the little girl must have suffered a tragic accident, but what he didn't understand was why she appeared here, how could such a little girl appear in this place where people are deserted and birds and beasts don't.

He couldn't bear to see the little girl waiting for death here alone, just like he couldn't bear to look at the scene of the green dragon at that time, he bent down and was about to pick up the little girl, at this time, he found that the little girl was holding a small grass in her hand, and she was holding on to it.

"Well, why is this grass so green, and the fragrance is so strong" The old man carefully picked off the little girl's fingers, for fear of hurting her, took out the grass, and shone it with a torch, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he was very excited.

"The sky has eyes, the sky has eyes. It's actually sea stone grass, it's actually sea stone grass. The old man looked at the stars, knelt on the ground, and bowed to the heavens. Tears flowed uncontrollably from the old man's eyes.

Holding the phoenix, he walked to the fire, although the old man tried to maintain a calm mood, but his excitement still could not escape the eyes of the green dragon.

"Grandpa, what's the matter with this little girl?"

"It should be from the royal family, but it looks like it should be abandoned. The old man tried not to recall Qinglong's past, so he didn't say much.

"Hey, sympathy, grandpa, let's keep her and be my sister. Chat with me and chat. ”

"Long'er, she is a lucky star and your benefactor of recreation. ”

"What do you mean? Grandpa, the dragon doesn't understand." Qinglong suddenly felt a little confused, and the old man's words were inexplicable.

"Long'er, what are we coming out for this time?"

"In order to find sea stone grass. ”

"Now we have found it, and it was this little girl who brought it. ”

"What? She. How is this possible, grandpa, are you kidding again?" Qinglong suddenly spoke incoherently, his whole body trembled, he knew that grandpa would definitely not lie to him, but he couldn't believe it was true.

"Grandpa lied to you, you see. The old man took out the sea stone grass from his cuff and shook it in front of the green dragon.

"Grandpa, isn't this just an ordinary grass?" Qinglong stared at the grass, and didn't notice anything special.

"Dragon, if you look closely, there is a petal on this grass, and the petal has three stone-sized buds on it. ”

Qinglong pressed forward desperately, he tried to look at the petals, and found that the fragrance of this petal was so strange that it made people deeply intoxicated, and he could feel that this little grass was different from the grass he was used to. In order to find the sea stone grass, grandpa took him to many places, he saw countless flowers and trees, but none of them could compare with this little grass, especially the fragrance.

Qinglong was excited, his lips trembled from beginning to end, he wanted to speak, but he couldn't speak, he knew that this little grass might be able to save him, he was not afraid of death, but he wanted to live, he wanted to make a difference, so that grandpa, of course, now including this little girl can live a good life. He looked at the little girl with eyes full of gratitude.

"Thank you. It was the only thing he could say at the moment.

"Long'er, wait a minute and start taking sea stone grass, this little girl should have not eaten for a while, I will feed her something first, and then I will feed you something, you calm down first, so that your heart is as calm as water, and there are no distracting thoughts." The old man began to command impatiently.

It is very simple to take the sea stone grass, just take out the stone-sized flower buds on the petals and swallow them into the body, then grind the remaining grass and petals into juice and apply it to the temples on the head.

Just in case, the old man didn't want to wait until he went home to let Qinglong take Sea Stone Grass. Because there are still more than 40 kilometers away from the way home, Haishicao is considered to be the number one thing in the "pharmacopoeia", which is very valuable, in case on the way back to meet some thieves, bandits, three repairs and the like, they will be in trouble, they are defenseless.

The so-called "pharmacopoeia" is the ranking of some natural treasures on this vast continent. The herbs that can be included in the "Pharmacopoeia" books are very expensive, and some are not even available with money. For example, although the sea stone grass is ranked low, it is also a priceless treasure, and it is impossible for ordinary people to have it. If it weren't for the appearance of the phoenix, presumably Qinglong and they would have found the sea stone grass, I don't know what year and month. It may even take a lifetime to find it.

The moon hung in the sky, the breeze was light, and there was silence, so quiet that you could hear the heartbeat of the green dragon's heartbeat.

In the past two years, Qinglong has been unable to raise his hands, kick his legs, and stand on his own countless occasions, and every time he sees the old man's old face and desolate back, he cries bitterly, he is crazy, he is uncomfortable, and he is disheartened. But the old man never gave up, he believed that the sky had eyes.

Suddenly, a magpie flew to the shoulder of the green dragon, chirping, and then circled around the old man, and finally stood on the phoenix's body, "twitter" seemed to say something, but it seemed to be more like a beautiful melody, the magpie annunciation. In this barren place, magpies appeared, and it was incredible.

"Long'er, look, the magpie announces the good news, grandpa believes that you will soon be able to stand up, step on the clouds in the future, and break through the sky. "Old tears. The old man looked at Qinglong and said.

"Grandpa, don't worry, grandpa, let's start. ”

"Long'er, taking Sea Stone Grass, the process will be very painful, you have to bear it yourself, grandpa can't help you. ”

"Grandpa, don't worry, I can bear it. ”
