Chapter 3: The Four-Legged Serpent

A meteor quickly painted the night sky, Liao Ge had already gone home, only Dai Yunong closed his eyes and made a wish, which is a rule handed down by the older generation.

When you see a meteor, you must not be impetuous, have no distractions, close your eyes and put your hands together to make a wish.

When he opened his eyes, Zhan Liancheng was already sitting next to them, Dai Yunong was not surprised, Zhan Zhan Liancheng was very different in Dai Yunong's heart, that is, his words and deeds revealed a fairy spirit.

"What wish did you make?" Zhan asked with a smile.

Dai Yunong did not feel restrained and replied truthfully: "There are a lot, and I don't know how much I promised." ”

Zhan Xiaocheng gently touched his head and said, "Take your time, one by one." ”

If it was another elder, even if the village chief said this to him, he would only feel that it was the elders who comforted the younger generation, but when it came out of Zhan Yancheng's mouth, Dai Yunong suddenly had a trance, this kind of trance was because Dai Yunong clearly knew that he had made those wishes, and some Arabian Nights would not come true at all, and now listening to Zhan Yancheng say this, he began to hesitate, he felt that it might be possible, he also wanted to practice, wanted to cultivate, wanted to get out of Caotou Village and go to the Great Wilderness to take a walk elsewhere.

Zhan Xiaocheng changed his tone and asked, "Do you know why, I can let you go to a private school to listen to lectures, but why don't I ask you to come in every time I see you standing outside to listen to the lessons? ”

Dai Yunong hesitated for a moment and said, "It's because I don't have the money to pay for tuition, and I'm too ordinary to deserve special treatment from Mr. Zhan." ”

Zhan Chengcheng shook his head with a smile and explained: "No, no, it's not a matter of tuition, it's a matter of rules, you can only enter a private school if you pay the tuition, do you think this rule is reasonable?"

Zhan Xiaocheng asked himself and replied: "For Du Yufu and Tianji, this is very reasonable, because I, as a master, also have to live, even if I am the same as you, I am the kind of person who feeds the whole family by one person and does not go hungry." ”

He turned his head to look at Dai Yunong and said, "But it's very unfair to you!"

Dai Yunong lowered his head, he actually didn't think there was anything unfair, whether it was on the earth, everything about money could be fair.

Zhan Xiaocheng suddenly pressed his shoulder and said: "I don't ask you to go to a private school to study, because I want to tell you that only hard-won things will make you know how to cherish more, and you will cherish them more after you get them, I want to teach you a truth, a truth that is more important than reading." ”

"Right and wrong in this world, black and white are not what you see. Just like this heaven and earth, there are not only heaven and earth, but also mountains and rivers, as well as you and me. Sometimes right and wrong can be laughed off and not cared about, but some rules must be nitpicked. Because right and wrong are in people's hearts, but rules are the bottom line of people's hearts, and it is not good to be too small or too big. ”

Dai Yunong scratched his head, he really didn't understand why Mr. Zhan wanted to tell him this.

Zhan Xiaocheng got up and patted his buttocks, and didn't ask Dai Yunong if he understood, he let out a long breath and crossed the threshold and walked towards the house.

Dai Yunong got up and followed.

Zhan Xiaocheng squatted in the corner of the wall, playing with some bottles and jars, some of which were porcelain, and some of which were bronze, with different styles.

These are all turned out of the soil when Dai Yunong was collecting medicine in the back mountain, and collecting antiques is his favorite thing, and it was even more so in the past.

"What are you doing with these collections, where did you pick them up?" asked Zhan Yancheng, picking up a bronze wine bottle.

"Most of my personal preferences are picked up from the swagger mountain. Dai Yunong replied.

Zhan Xiaocheng said: "After a while, those outsiders can freely enter and leave Caotou Village, they are all here to buy things, some people can give away these gadgets for free if you look at them, if you don't want to sell them, don't buy them, if you want to buy them, the price is a little higher." ”

Dai Yunong nodded in response, what Mr. Zhan explained must have deep meaning.

Before leaving, Zhan Xiaocheng remembered another incident and said: "When I go to the back mountain tomorrow to collect medicine for Miss Song, I can collect more, and the newly opened pharmacy in Feisheng City can be used to resell it to make some money to prepare the quilt for this winter." ”

Dai Yunong still nodded in response.

Dai Yunong sat on the threshold for a night, and it was not until the last moment that the stars disappeared into the day, and he couldn't hold on for a short rest.

But it didn't take long for Dai Yunong to be woken up by a cough, Dai Yunong was stunned for a while, and then remembered that there was still a girl lying on his bed, and hurriedly ran over to help Song Qing'a and drank saliva.

Song Qing'a's eyes were confused, his eyes were scattered, and he subconsciously asked, "Where is this? Where is my sword?"

Dai Yunong lay her down, took the long sword that was set aside in his hand and shook it in front of her and said: "This is Caotou Village, my family, Mr. Zhan has received your letter, you are seriously injured, Mr. Zhan entrusted you to me, I will be responsible for collecting medicine for you to heal your injuries, my name is Dai Yunong, thank you for saving me yesterday." ”

Soon Song Qing'a's gaze returned to clarity, like a pool of water.

Seeing that Song Qing'a was not talking, Dai Yunong gave Song Qing'a a bowl of loach soup that had been warm.

"If it's inconvenient for you, I can feed you. Dai Yunong said.

Song Qing'a shook his head and said, "Thank you, you can let it go first, if I want to drink it, I can drink it myself." ”

Dai Yunong sighed, moved a bench and put it on the side of the bed, and put the soup bowl on top and instructed: "It's cold after a long time, I have to go to the mountains to collect medicine, I may not be able to come back for a while, at noon my friend Liao Ge will come to bring you lunch, you can tell him if you need anything, you don't have to be polite." ”

Song Qing'a just nodded, and was not polite or refused.

Dai Yunong covered the door, picked up the bamboo basket and a small hoe, and walked towards the back mountain.

Along the way, the wild fruits on the roadside can just satisfy his hunger, as Liao Ge said, the people in this Caotou Village are only poor to death, and absolutely not starved to death.

Dai Yunong's house is at the end of Caotou Village, next to the west gate in Liu Daqing's mouth, which is actually a wooden pallet fence.

There are three roads in the back mountain, one on the left leads to Zhaoyao Mountain, the middle one leads to Tangting Mountain, and the rightmost one leads to Sae Yi Mountain.

Dai Yunong usually crosses a stone bridge from the left to go to Zhaoyao Mountain, because the aquatic plants like to hide under this stone bridge to sleep, and when he comes back, Dai Yunong will choose to return from the road of Tangting Mountain, he rarely walks on the road of Ape Wing Mountain, and he rarely goes to Ape Wing Mountain, because there is a mass grave at the foot of Ape Wing Mountain.

Dai Yunong didn't believe in ghosts and gods, but he maintained a heart of awe, after all, he crossed over from the earth in a real and mysterious way, so he couldn't help but be in awe.

As soon as I walked to the bridge, the aquatic plants jumped out of the water and fell into the bamboo basket, and there was a live fish in the bamboo basket.

There are many laurel trees in Zhaoyao Mountain, and there is only Zhuyu grass in Zhaoyao Mountain nearby, which is a kind of herb shaped like a leek with green flowers, mortals will not feel hungry for a long time after eating, but if they do not eat during this time, they will even be starved to death directly.

The reason why Zhaoyao Mountain is called Zhaoyao is because this mountain is planted with some sacred trees called Maze Hub, which has black lines on its body, and the Maze Hub Tree will emit a golden light after flowering, and you will not get lost no matter how far you wear this flower.

The source of the Li River under the stone bridge comes from the depths of Zhaoyao Mountain.

In the afternoon, Dai Yunong, who had been busy, returned with a full load.

At this time, Song Qing'a had already sat on the threshold from the bed, and there were obvious traces of passivity in the kitchen, but it was very clean!

Dai Yunong saw that Song Qing'a was in a daze and didn't say hello, but just counted the herbs by himself, counted the herbs that needed to be boiled for Song Qing'a, and then put another batch of herbs back into the bamboo basket, which were to be bought in the city of Thirty Miles.

"You are also injured, why don't you rest at home?" Song Qing'a asked suddenly.

Dai Yunong was stunned and said: "Get used to it, some flesh injuries are much more comfortable than getting wind and cold." ”

Song Qing'a nodded, pointed to the herbs in the bamboo basket and asked, "Then what are you going to do with these?"

"These are some common medicinal herbs, and some maze tree flowers, and the maze flower will not get lost with it. ”

Song Qing'a just nodded again.

"I'll go first, Liao Ge will still come over to bring you food in the evening, if it's okay, you can lie on the bed and won't be tired. ”

"I'll go with you, it's a little dangerous on the road thirty miles away. Song Qing'a stood up and said.

"No, I'm familiar with that path and there won't be any danger, and you should have a good rest. Dai Yunong refused.

"Then you take this sword with you for self-defense. Song Qing'a took off his sword and handed it to Dai Yunong.

Dai Yunong smiled a little helplessly, jumped on the spot, and the aquatic plants came out of his sleeve, Dai Yunong pointed to it and said, "It's not a big problem to have it." ”

This is the second time Song Qing'a has seen the aquatic plants, and she was slightly stunned, this time she found the clue, this is not an ordinary water snake, but a four-legged snake!

There are three kinds of real dragons directly under the world, and the most difficult and least like the dragon is the so-called carp jumping dragon gate. The second is that the snake becomes a python, the python becomes a python, the python becomes a dragon, this consumes too much time and energy, and it is extremely easy to die. As for the third one, this kind of four-legged snake that is directly under the real dragon can turn into a dragon as long as the opportunity comes to take care of it!
