At the bottom of the mountain is a jungle, where birds and beasts come and go, and the further down the mountain goes, the more humid the air becomes. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

After a while, Lin Tian landed under a big tree, and walked over after seeing what plants a few people were collecting.

At this time, a bearded man seemed to sense that someone was approaching, and hurriedly greeted the few people who were busy collecting with their heads down, and for a while, those who were originally collecting with their heads down all raised their heads and looked at Lin Tian who was approaching, looking nervous.

Lin Tian saw that they were all vigilant, with a look of vigilance, and stood not far away, so he stopped and asked, "May I ask where is this?"

The bearded man didn't pay attention to the questioning when he saw the visitor, but just clenched a sharp sickle in his hand, leaned against a few people behind him, and waited until a few people stood together before he spoke: "Who are you? Are you also here to rob our medicinal herbs? Let me tell you, if you dare to come forward again, we will fight with you, anyway, it is better to die left and right, it is better to be happy, you in the province always loot us every once in a while." ”

"You misunderstood, I was just passing through here, and I took the liberty of bothering you because my map was lost, and I really didn't mean anything wrong. In order to completely dispel their concerns, Lin Tian raised his hands and smiled, indicating that he was really a lost traveler.

A somewhat graceful woman standing behind the bearded man saw Lin Tian's actions, so she spoke: "You are really not the group of bandits in Luofeng Mountain?"

"What bandits, eldest sister, I'm really lost, I have no malicious intent. As for the Luofeng Mountain you mentioned, I don't even know where it is, let alone robbing your medicinal materials. Lin Tian was very helpless, but there was no way, if he wanted to find his parents' soul and spirit grass as soon as possible, he had to rely on the guidance of these people in front of him.

The bearded general was suspicious, looking at Lin Tian's chicken nest hair, he was still a little uneasy, and said loudly: "You roll up your sleeves and show me, you need to show us both hands, so that I can believe that you are not a bandit." ”

There is no way, the situation is stronger than people, Lin Tian had no choice but to roll up the cuffs of his hands, revealing his white arms as white as jade to show a few people in front of him carefully, the bearded man glanced at him from a distance, and saw that his arms were very white, without any patterns, so he completely dispelled his worries in his heart, and began to signal Lin Tian to come over.

Lin Tian saw him put down the sickle in his hand, approached the bearded man with a smile, and when he walked to the front of him, he asked with a smile: "Why do you want me to roll up my cuffs? Could it be that the difference between the bandit and me is in the arm?"

"Yes, the group of bandits in Luofeng Mountain all have a tiger head on their arms, which is a symbol of their status. The woman standing behind the bearded man spoke.

"Then big sister, you can tell me where this is now, I'm just a lost person"

"This is Yuehua Village under Luofeng Mountain, brother, don't blame me, we were really scared by that group of bandits, and they came to the village to rob two times in three days, and now we are all dying of hunger. The bearded man was a little embarrassed, he was pressing people step by step just now, but now he is really a lost person, and he immediately opened his mouth to answer Lin Tian.

"Big brother, don't mind, you should be cautious, and I will be nervous. ”

"Brother, if you don't mind, let's go, go back to our village and we'll talk in detail. The bearded man's attitude immediately turned into enthusiasm.

The bearded man greeted and said, "Everyone clean up, let's collect these today, and come back tomorrow to collect the others, and go back first today." After speaking, he looked at the foggy sky.

Lin Tian followed the bearded man to what they called Yuehua Village, the village was very small, there were only a dozen or so households, and when they walked into the village, there were already dozens of old people holding sticks guarding there, as if they were defending against someone, and the old people in the village were full of joy when they saw the bearded man coming back with the villagers.

An old man with gray hair stepped forward and asked the bearded man, "How was Biaozi's harvest today?"

The bearded man beckoned to a few people behind him, and then put a small bamboo basket on his body in front of the old man, and said with shame: "The village chief dug these today, now there are too few goblins, the good ones have been dug up before, and now there are only these small ones, and the number is still very small." ”

The old man grabbed the medicinal herbs in the bamboo basket with his hand, and saw that as the bearded man said, the medicinal herbs were really small and few, and sighed: "God is going to kill my Yuehua!"

The bearded man couldn't bear it, looked at the villagers who bowed their heads around him, and said loudly: "Village chief, it's a big deal that we fight with them, they are deliberately trying to destroy my Yuehua Village, and I won't let them succeed even if I die." ”

The old village chief instructed a few villagers to put away the medicinal herbs, took the bearded man's hand, and sighed: "Biaozi, don't you know their strength? They are not something we can resist, people can destroy us with a finger, what can we do to fight with them, or you can take a few babies away, it can be regarded as leaving a thought for my Yuehua Village, so that our group of dying people can rest assured." ”

When the bearded man heard that the old village chief had asked him to lead people to escape, he immediately knelt down in front of the old village chief with a thud, and said with red eyes: "Village chief, I won't leave even if I die." ”

For a while, the surrounding villagers were in tears, and even some young women were sobbing quietly.

Seeing this, Lin Tian hurriedly picked up his beard and comforted: "What is the matter with Brother Biaozi, maybe I can help if you say it?"

The old village chief wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and asked, "Are you?"

The bearded man hurriedly introduced to the old village chief: "The little brother of the village chief is the lost person we just met on the mountain, and I brought him back when I saw that he was not a bandit from Luofeng Mountain. ”

Hearing that the bearded man actually brought Lin Tian back, the old village chief hammered the beard fiercely, and said, "You are harming others, we will always be in danger of life here, do you want to kill him if you bring this little brother back?" ”

Lin Tian smiled slightly and said: "Village chief, don't blame Brother Biao, I came back with him voluntarily, I need a map, the more detailed the better, I got lost, and my map is also lost, you haven't said anything happened to you, maybe I can help." ”

Seeing that Lin Tian was willing to help, the old village chief hurriedly thanked him: "Little brother, you took the map and left early, you can't help with the things here, the bandits in Luofeng Mountain don't care if you are from Yuehua Village or not, they will rob people when they see them, and they will kill people if they don't agree, so don't lose your life here." ”

After speaking, he turned his head to the bearded man and said, "Biaozi, you quickly take the little brother back to get a map to send him, let him leave quickly, don't delay the little brother's life." After saying that, he greeted a group of old people guarding the entrance of the village and dispersed.

The bearded man's house was a thatched hut, and the thatched hut was surrounded by a fenced wall, and the bearded man pushed open the firewood door and walked in first, and then said loudly: "Yue'e, I'm back." ”

Lin Tian walked into the small courtyard and remembered the small village he lived in before, the midsummer night, and the happy time of the family, and froze in place for a while.

Hearing the cry of the bearded man, an ordinary-looking woman came out of the grass hut, wearing coarse cloth clothes, and said with a smile: "Biaozi, why did you come back so early today?"

"Today, the guests at home will get a few more side dishes, and take out my good wine, and I want to have a few drinks with this little brother. The bearded man seemed to be very happy, as if there were great guests in the house, but in fact, the more mountain villages, the more simple the folk customs, they were hospitable and warm, and treated an unknown person as if they were their own close relatives.

Yue'e glanced at Lin Tian who was standing at the door of the firewood, pulled the bearded arm, and whispered: "Didn't that jar of wine say that you will drink it when Ke'er gets married, and there is only a small piece of wild soul meat at home, and there are some wild vegetables left, where are there any side dishes." ”

Hearing that there seemed to be nothing to eat at home, the bearded man thought for a moment and said, "Go ahead and get it, bring all the delicious food, and don't neglect the guests." Seeing that he was telling the truth, Yue'e immediately didn't shirk it, turned around and went to get ready to eat.

The bearded man turned around and saw Lin Tianleng at the door of the firewood, then stepped forward and took Lin Tian's hand, and said with a smile: "Come on, the kid will be his own home when he arrives at my house, don't be polite, although my family doesn't have any delicacies from the mountains and seas, but I, Wang Biao, will definitely greet the guests with the best wine and food." ”

The bearded man's pull pulled Lin Tian from the dream to reality, and when he heard the bearded man's words, he smiled and said: "What did Brother Biaozi say, I don't pay attention to what I eat, I fancy the friendship of the family." ”

Hearing Lin Tian's words, the bearded man laughed: "I, Wang Biao, really didn't look at the wrong person, I knew that brother, you are a person who values love and righteousness." ”

The bearded man quickly set up the wine table in the small courtyard, took out a jar of wine he said, pulled Lin Tian to sit down, and asked, "You haven't asked what your brother's name is, how old is it, and where does your family live?"

Lin Tian smiled: "Brother Biaozi, my name is Lin Tian, I know that you are older than me by looking at my age, if you don't dislike it, I will call you Brother Biaozi." I have no family for a long time, I was taken in by Master, I used to live in Heiyun Mountain, and now Master has asked me to go down the mountain to practice. ”

"Oh, so that's the case, don't worry, you just stay at my house first, and when you want to leave, I'll give you a map of us here, in fact, it's a map, but it's a map within a radius of a hundred miles, and I haven't been to any farther. The bearded man said with a big grin, not at all shying away from the fact that he had not been to that distant place.

At this time, a little girl with a pure appearance pushed the chaimen violently, ran in crazy, grabbed the bearded beard, saw that the beard was a little painful, and immediately laughed and said: "The bearded father sees that you are still running, you dare to lie to me, is it so difficult for me to let you take me to dig herbs?"

The bearded man didn't immediately let the little girl go, but picked her up and sat on his lap, scratched the bridge of her little nose and said: "Ke'er, it's not that Daddy won't take you there, it's too dangerous in the mountains, if something happens to you, your mother will have to cook me, and Daddy can't help it." ”

Seeing that the bearded man said seriously, the child let go of the beard that he was grasping with one hand: "Today, for the sake of your hard work, I will let you go, otherwise this woman will definitely take you down and beat you hard a hundred times." ”

Looking at the happy father and daughter, Lin Tian smiled and said, "Brother Biao, is this your daughter?"

The bearded man moved Ke'er to sit down, and said with a smile: "Ke'er call uncle!"

Ke'er raised her delicate little face, looked at Lin Tian, and after a while, laughed and said, "Uncle Yet, I don't think he's a few years older than me, I think it's called brother." Then he said in an old-fashioned manner: "Big brother, my name is Wang Keer, what about you?"

"Don't mess around, Wang Ke'er, if you are disobedient, I will call your mother here, see that you are still arrogant. When the bearded man saw that his daughter was really called Brother Lin Tian, he was immediately anxious, he was the eldest brother of others, and his daughter was called his brother, what is this called.

The more Lin Tianzhen looked at it, the more he liked this little girl, and persuaded him: "Brother Biaozi, we called us, it doesn't matter." He immediately turned his head to Ke'er and said, "Okay, my name is Lin Tian, Sister Ke'er." ”

Kerr, who was sitting on the bearded lap, heard that Lin Tian was willing to be her brother, and immediately jumped up and cheered loudly: "Oh, Kerr has a brother!"
