Chapter 29: Snow Ginseng and Red Rabbit
"In the past eight years, Brother Guo has been lying on the welcome pine and napping, and I have been lonely at the bottom of the mountain, I don't want Minglou and Dingbian to come today, hehe, this Zhenyang Mountain will definitely be a lot more lively in the future!" Zhao Ye soaked in the pool for a while, although he was scalded by the boiling water, he also endured himself: "Brother Guo, now that our brothers are rarely together, what are you going to do next?"
"Oh, I didn't expect Xiao Ye, who has always been lazy, to become a pioneer this time. Wu Guo was stunned for a moment, then sat back on the edge of the pool, and asked, "Then what are your plans in mind?"
"Brother Guo, you were born with a great opportunity, and Minglou is talented...... Then what should I do with Dingbian!" Zhao Ye scratched his head, and there seemed to be some twisting in his expression: "Although I am lazy...... In my heart, I thought that I could become a primordial baby or something in the end...... Live another thousand years!"
"Haha! Where are you who have lived for a thousand years, it is clearly a scourge for a thousand years!" Wu Guo laughed.
"Phew!Phew!Phew!The biggest scourge in the world is you, the fruit of harming people!" Zhao Ye was furious, but adhering to his usual character of being opportunistic and shortcut, he finally begged in a low voice: "Seriously, Brother Guo, you are scheming, can you think of a way, or buy or refine...... How about some elixir to eat?"
"Eat you big-headed ghost! Go back to your black shop and eat peanuts at night! For example, most of the spirit grass is not ripe today, even if Uncle Zhao is in the center of the Beijing Division, I am afraid that he will not be able to buy it! If there is, he will send it to you a long time ago!" Wu Guo first scolded angrily, thought about it, and then hesitated: "But legend has it that there is a snow ginseng doll in the snowy mountains in the north, which is always hidden deep under the ice and snow, not affected by the aura of heaven and earth, and I don't know if it is true or false, and the thousand-year-old snow ginseng doll will be psychic and turn into a child!" Well, it seems that only the grass spirit rabbit can find it......
"Grass Hunting Spirit Rabbit? Could it be the red rabbit known as the king of rabbits?" As a competent bag inquiring, Zhao Ye's eyes suddenly lit up: "Brother Guo didn't say it, why did I forget that snow ginseng doll!" Legend has it that it hides under the deep snow together, not affected by the aura of heaven and earth, and the thousand-year-old snow ginseng doll can not only transform into shape, but also has nine snow ginseng fruits on its head!"
"Yes! I heard Grandpa Tiger say a while ago that the red rabbit is now almost extinct in the land of demons, where can it be easily found!" Wu Guo sighed softly, rolled his eyes, and said: "Although the elixir can't be hoped for, but after a while, I may be able to get back some spirit stones, and I want to say that I have broken stones and condensed incense...... It's a pity that few people know about the art of condensing incense...... After all, it has only been eight years since then, and those who were proficient in pharmacology in the past basically couldn't survive the end of the Dharma era!"
When monks meditate at night, they are naturally in a state of semi-sleep, and the effect of exhaling spiritual energy is only half of what they usually do, but if they have the help of a rich spiritual fragrance, they can naturally get twice the result with half the effort.
However, there is no spiritual stone produced in the Central Plains, and in the past, one or two were obtained from the land of demons, and the spiritual stones were ground into powder, condensed into incense, and then lit and used in night meditation.
"Oh! As soon as Brother Guo said this, I remembered one thing!" Zhao Ye slapped his head, and immediately regretted it: "Two days ago, a pair of brothers and sisters came to the store at night, and the shopkeeper blocked the door and begged the brother and sister for novelties, the brother and sister ...... My brother is in his teens, and my sister is even younger, less than ten years old...... The younger sister has been pulling her brother to leave, but the elder brother hesitated again and again, and finally took out a medicine book from his arms, saying that it was an ancestral heirloom of his family, if the two of them could live in the store these days, they could lend it to the store to read for a few days...... Unfortunately, I was so drunk that night that I was unconscious...... The next day, I heard the shopkeeper talk to me, and I found out about it......"
"Phew! You just can't even open a black shop! On weekdays, I always tell you to take care of the orphans, the old and the young, but you always take my words as the wind in your ears! It must be that you are usually used to flying and domineering, and even take the shopkeeper with you! Tonight, after you go down the mountain, you will drive the shopkeeper away!" Wu Guo was suddenly furious, thought about it, and muttered again: "Since you have the ancestral medicine scripture on your body, you still have some skills for those brothers and sisters...... Listening to what you just said, my sister is well-behaved and sensible, and my brother loves my sister very much, it seems that my heart is very good...... But don't worry, wait for a few days when the mountain gate is opened, and when teenagers from all over the country climb to the top at the foot of the mountain for the exam, I will take a look and know!"
Every spring, when the sect recruits new disciples, you immediately become a hundred times more energetic, and you slip down from the welcome pine, not to mention, and find a small piece of plaster to stick on the center of your eyebrows...... Pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger!" Zhao Ye naturally refused to admit defeat, and even the embarrassing things that hurt people in the past were revealed.
"Brother Guo, after Xiao Ye comes down the mountain, just teach the shopkeeper a few words, just give him another chance. The loyal and honest Yue Minglou remembered the report of the shopkeeper last night, and naturally couldn't bear it, so he hurriedly spoke out to persuade him.
"Superficial!" Wu Guo glanced at Zhao Ye and said disdainfully: "When I want to harm people, I will directly harm them, when will I pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger?
"Phew, if you don't want to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger in your heart, why don't you even sleep when you recruit new disciples every year, you always stand on the stone steps and look east and west...... That's not all, you have to put a plaster on your eyebrows to bluff people!" Zhao Ye still asked unconvinced.
"I'm telling you now, you don't understand! That's it, I'll tell you when the mountain gate opens in a few days!"
"Little boy, my Xue family has been hunters for generations before, if you want to catch that snow ginseng doll, Dingbian can do it!" Xue Dingbian had been listening quietly, and finally couldn't help but speak at this time.
"Dingbian recuperates with peace of mind, how can you take action for such a trivial matter!Haha, you don't know, Xiao Ye has liked sweat pills, tripping horses, stabbing knives in the back and the like since he was a child...... Bullying children or something, Xiao Ye is the best at it!" Wu Guo laughed.
"Phew!Phew!Phew!Bah!The reason why I liked the Yin people behind me when I was a child was not because of my lack of combat power, I couldn't beat them!" Zhao Ye suddenly became angry, and thought for a while: "Brother Guo, now that I have this hot spring that can strengthen my body, what do you say I will practice in the future!"
"Uncle Zhao's 'Cloud Turning Hands' is very suitable for you! But unfortunately it can't be passed on...... Over the years, I have been practicing qi and playing chess in my dreams, but I have also delayed a lot of things, such as martial arts, which have been delayed all the way, even those third-rate swordsmanship, I have not practiced for a day...... This time Minglou is here again, I have to think about it carefully......" Wu Guo touched his chin and thought for a while, and sighed: "Wait until tomorrow I'll go to the library to have a look, and then I'll make a plan." ”
"Brother Guo, don't you always say that the things of your predecessors can't be trusted?" Zhao Ye said confusedly.
"But my stomach is empty now, I always have to learn from it first!" Wu Guo looked at Xue Dingbian, and suddenly had another idea: "Dingbian, you used to fight with the demons all day long, and your nickname was 'Golden Gun and Silver Armor, Desperate San Lang', I don't know what kind of martial arts marksmanship you practiced?"
