Chapter 4 The Strange Affair of the River
"What's going on?" Chu Mo ran forward and asked.
"Huh!" The man was shocked when he saw Chu Mo, and then he was overjoyed: "Baby, you can be regarded as coming back safely!
"If only we came back safely, we met the footprints of a blind bear on the mountain, and we thought you had been eaten!"
"As far as you say some unlucky things, the milk baby is a person who has read with Mr. Jia, and understands the truth, can he be taken by the blind bear?"
When everyone saw that it was Chu Mo, they were all overjoyed, and you said it to me.
At this time, Chu Li hurriedly ran over, holding his hand with tears in his eyes and refusing to let go, muttering broken words in his mouth, and he couldn't hear what he was saying.
Chu Mo put down his hoe and bow and arrows, straightened his neck and looked into the house, only to see Uncle Liu lying on a wicker chair, his mouth was moaning constantly, his right leg was covered with blood, and his son Liu Dapang was crying and wiping his tears.
"Baby, are you back?" Uncle Liu saw Chu Mo, groaned and opened his eyes, full of joy.
"Well, I'm back. Chu Mo nodded vigorously and asked forward, "Uncle Liu, your legs ......?"
"It's not for you to be a milk baby!" Aunt Wang next door opened her mouth and said, "You didn't come back last night, Uncle Liu blamed himself, saying that he shouldn't have persuaded you to go hunting, and said that he would go up the mountain with us to find you." Who knows, the thatch on the mountainside is too slippery, and I accidentally planted it, and the old man is now ......"
Aunt Wang didn't continue, Chu Mo also understood, it is estimated that Chu Li saw that he did not come back last night, so he invited five or six surrounding families to go up the mountain early in the morning to look for him, but Uncle Liu accidentally broke his leg.
Especially for the elderly, their self-healing ability is poor, and if they are not treated, they will have pus in a few days, and the only way to wait for death is to die!
Chu Mo was anxious, although Uncle Liu usually looked strict, he actually loved him very much, and occasionally reprimanded him for hating iron but not steel. Now that Uncle Liu is injured in order to search and rescue himself, if he doesn't care, he will not be able to feel at ease in this life.
After all, he is a person who has traveled over from the 21st century, and he first thought of seeing a doctor!
However, there is no doctor in this ravine, and if you want to see a doctor, you have to enter the city first!
Entering the city is a big deal! In this information-closed ravine, people of several generations can count on one hand who have been out of the mountains, and there is no such thing as going to the city to see a doctor!
"What? You mean to send my dad to the city to see a doctor?"
Sure enough, as soon as Chu Mo said this idea, the first thing he questioned was Uncle Liu's son Liu Dapang, and the people around him also frowned, so they didn't have the word "unreliable" written on their faces.
"Well, there is only this way now, didn't you listen to what the seller said, those doctors in the city are all people with university questions, and your father's leg will definitely be cured!" Chu Mo knew that everyone had no medical awareness, so he gave him a reassuring pill.
"However, I have heard that there is money for medical treatment in the city...... This, you also know this, our salt and cloth are exchanged for animal skins, how can there be any money at home?" Liu Dapang looked embarrassed and stammered.
"Yes, yes, milk baby, we families, only the second stunned son went to the city when he bought a daughter-in-law, and the family members were sick and relied on themselves to survive......" Aunt Wang interjected on the side.
"Where did you get the money to buy a daughter-in-law?" Chu Mo said in confusion when he heard this.
The second stunned man was lucky, he beat a tiger and exchanged it for a few taels of silver. ”
"Oh!" Chu Mo's eyes flashed, his mind became active, he pulled Chu Li's family, discussed it with her, and took out the only two fox skins in the house.
This fox skin was saved by Chu Mo's father when he was still alive, and it was used as a cloak in winter, which was a little shabby, Chu Mo didn't know how much these two old fox skins were worth outside, but now he can only use dead horses as live horse doctors, and when he gets it to the pawnshop in the city, he can always get some money, at least it is much fairer than the price of the seller.
Seeing that Chu Mo had made up his mind to send Uncle Liu to the city for medical treatment, some hope also rose in everyone's hearts, perhaps, this usually silent baby really has the ability to go to the city to see a doctor?
Dangzi, everyone was not ambiguous, and they all enthusiastically took out their fur and sent it to Chu Mo's house, there is a big look that you don't just look down on me.
Chu Mo was very moved, in his previous life, he had always heard that the people in the mountains were simple, but he didn't know what kind of simple method it was, he had seen it today, the thoughts of the people in the mountains were straight, and their likes and dislikes were written on their faces, and if something happened to each family, those who could help would definitely try their best to help.
Chu Mo was not hypocritical, and accepted a few skins that looked pretty good, after all, when he arrived in the city, whether it was accommodation or food, it would cost money, so make more plans and be prepared.
Liu Dapang got a fishing boat, put Uncle Liu away, and the three of them set off. From the foot of Qiyun Mountain to the city, you can only take the waterway of the big river at the bottom of the mountain, row a boat for a day, and then you can see the market town.
Saying goodbye to Chu Li's family, Chu Mo got on the boat, but saw that Xiaobai was also on the boat, looking at him with teary eyes, looking like he was going to go with you even if he was killed.
Chu Mo couldn't cry or laugh, the little thing started this morning, like a child who hadn't grown up, it had to stick everywhere it went, and now it was put on like this, and there was really nothing to do with it.
The boat opened, Chu Mo and Liu Dapang took turns paddling, it is now the dry season, the water flow speed is not fast, but it is easy to row, at the end of the day, most of the trip has gone.
This is the first time Chu Mo has left home since coming to this world, everything is very novel, both sides of the river, most of them are cliffs, deep mountains and dense forests, Rao is he has seen too many beautiful scenery on TV in his previous life, and he can't help but think of Li Daoyuan's "Three Gorges", which is really layered with mountains and mountains, hidden from the sky.
In the middle of the night, Chu Mo did not leave his cultivation behind, since he successfully came out of his body last night, his control over the Yin God has been able to do whatever he wants.
But this time, he didn't dare to leave the Yin God, the river was already cold, and the wind blowing over was even more chilly, and the Yin God forcibly left the body, I am afraid that he would be scattered in a few breaths!
Gradually, he entered a wonderful realm, with him as the center, the heaven and earth essence in a radius of ten zhang was like a life, constantly integrating into his yin god.
This is a way for the Yin God to cultivate, by absorbing the essence and constantly growing, to reach the realm of immaculateness, and then to transform the physical body and open up the Purple Mansion.
Seeing Chu Mo meditating on the bow of the boat, Liu Dapang felt strange in his heart, thinking that this was the way the scholar slept, and he didn't care much about it, concentrating on paddling.
However, after a while, he realized that something was wrong! No matter how much he paddled, the boat did not move!
What's going on? I met a ghost? Liu Da Fat was sweating profusely on his forehead, and in the middle of the night, it was on the water again, and it was said that the water ghost liked to come out at this time to harm people!
"Go call the milk baby!" Liu Dapang suddenly remembered that he had heard the elders say that the scholar is a god in the sky, and the ghost has to be afraid when he sees it!
"Baby, wake up, wake up!" he called out twice anxiously.
Chu Mo didn't react.
He grabbed Chu Mo's hand and shook it vigorously a few times, and then saw that Chu Mo had lost his soul, completely motionless!
"It's over, something happened to the milk baby!" Liu Dapang retreated in fright, and his whole body was paralyzed.
