Chapter 5 The origin of the gourd

After listening to the gourd babies talk about it, the grandfather first highly praised the hard work spirit of the second baby, and severely criticized several other gourd babies who did not want to make progress, and finally expressed great regret to the unlucky big bird who fell to death.

That night, a pot was erected in the yard.

Of course, the gourd babies can only watch their grandfather handle the ingredients in an orderly manner, and the pangolin, who is usually quiet, can't help but be moved at this moment, from the moment the pot is ready, the pangolin squatted motionless in front of the pot, especially when the grandfather threw the plucked bird into the pot, the pangolin's eyes never left for a moment.

I have to say that grandpa's craftsmanship is extraordinary.

As the soup gradually became golden, a tempting fragrance wafted out of the pot leisurely, the gourd babies could see and smell, but they couldn't eat it, they could only wilt and hang on the vine, and seven pairs of envious, jealous and hateful eyes fell on the pangolin's body.

The latter was unaware of it, still snorting at the cauldron, unaware of the resentful eyes of the six and a half reincarnated gods behind him.

Seven gourds and one beast, quietly and obediently watching grandpa cook soup, grandpa who had been busy for a long time suddenly turned around and shouted: "Four babies." ā€

When the four babies heard this, they immediately became energetic, and responded very enthusiastically: "Grandpa, grandpa, the four babies are here." ā€

"Good boy, come and add to the fire," shouted Grandpa, "just three points of fire, don't burn the pot." ā€

"......" Siwa suddenly wilted when she heard this, and she had to reluctantly exert her strength towards the firewood at the bottom of the pot.

The light of the fire was extinguished, and it made Grandpa's face flicker.

No one spoke, and the scene suddenly fell silent again, except for the crackling sound of firewood.

After being silent for a long time, the grandfather suddenly spoke again: "Count the days, the children are almost a year old." ā€

"Grandpa, grandpa, I'll be a year old in two days! I remember it all!" said the second baby hurriedly as if she was invited.

"Life flies so fast. Grandpa seemed to sigh and said, "The children have grown up too." ā€

The gourds have said that they will always be grandpa's good baby, but the witty Qi Ming has already seen through everything, and always feels that there is something wrong with grandpa today.

"When you grow up, you have to learn to be self-reliant, after all, grandpa is old and can't take care of you all the time. Grandpa said to himself, stirring the soup in the pot by the way.

Although the gourd babies are young and ignorant, they are actually very smart, and they understand that their grandfather has something to say, so they all quiet down and wait quietly for their grandfather to finish.

Grandpa continued: "You guys grew up under Grandpa's watch, and Grandpa knows your personality very well. I'm not afraid to let you know that grandpa originally raised you with the intention of letting you grow up and help grandpa deal with that snake demon. It's just that now grandpa has also figured it out, take a step back and open the sky, that snake demon is too powerful, and grandpa can't bear to let the children get hurt......" Speaking of this, grandpa also wiped his tears.

Seeing this, the gourds were very sad, and they all said that the little snake demon was not a problem.

Grandpa waved his hand and said with a happy look: "It's not in the way, the dolls are almost a year old, and when you grow up, grandpa will take you away from home and live an ordinary child's life." Grandpa knows that children are ancient strange things and are born with high skills, but grandpa also hopes to give you a happy childhood......"

When Qi Ming heard this, he suddenly asked: "Grandpa, our brothers have been born for a long time, and we don't know our origins, I heard grandpa say that we are ancient treasures, what is this?"

The other gourd babies also felt curious when they heard Qi Ming ask, and couldn't help but ask.

Grandpa glanced at Qi Ming inexplicably, and then said with a smile: "Since the children are curious, grandpa will simply tell everyone......"

In short, in a very distant place, there is a magical treasure called the Seven Treasure Gourd. According to legend, the gourd seeds of this seven treasure gourd, born when they land, live when they enter the soil, and the gourd that grows after maturity is born with magical powers, and has all kinds of extraordinary uses. If you use it, it is a natural spiritual treasure, and if you refine it into a pill, you can eat it for nothing.

The idle Seven Treasure Gourd, one vine only bears one fruit. The higher the grade of gourd seeds, the more fruit. Legend has it that if a five-colored gourd is produced, eating it can make people soar in the daytime, but it is mostly a rumor and no one has ever seen it.

But legend has it that if the seeds have seven colors, the vines will bloom with seven flowers, and the seven-colored gourd will be born of its own wisdom and turn into a human to walk the world. This is a god of heaven and earth, and if anyone disturbs the foundation, he will be punished by heaven.

It's just that the Seven Treasure Gourd is a strange thing in heaven and earth, which is rare in the world. The seven colors of flowers are just legends, and no one has ever taken them seriously.

Beyond the Northwest Sea, in the corner of the great wilderness, there are mountains that do not match, and the name is not good.

Grandpa didn't know where he heard the rumor that there were seven-colored gourd seeds in Buzhou Mountain, so he wanted to go to Buzhou Mountain to try his luck, find the seven-colored gourd and cultivate it, and use the power of the gourd babies to subdue demons and defeat the snake demon.

As a result, good luck fell from heaven, and grandpa really found the seven-colored gourd seeds, so he happily took them home and planted the field.

The above is what grandpa dictated, and it has generally passed.

The gourds seemed to understand whether they understood or not, probably in addition to understanding the words that are rare in the world, legends and other words, and found that although they had always been very good but so good, they didn't understand anything else.

What's that?

Qi Ming understood everything, but he didn't dare to believe his grandfather's reserved statement.

But what Grandpa said, one thing can be certain, the so-called Seven Treasure Gourd is indeed something, and Grandpa will not deceive on this point.

So here's the problem.

First, Qi Ming knew that the gourd babies were reincarnated as gods, but why did they reincarnate into gourd babies? Moreover, the seven gods were reincarnated in the same gourd seed at the same time, which made no sense or reason.

Second, grandpa said that the gourd babies are the spiritual incarnation of the seven-colored gourd, and obviously he doesn't know the true face of the gourd babies, but he doesn't rule out the possibility that grandpa lied.

Third, Buzhou Mountain is the Optimus Pillar both in this world and in the myths and stories that Qi Ming is familiar with. Moreover, as far as Qi Ming knew, although the Buzhou Mountain in this world was not a fierce place of the level of the Heavenly God Forbidden Land, it was also very dangerous. Grandpa can enter Buzhou Mountain to successfully retrieve the seven-colored gourd seeds, and his strength can be imagined.

The more Qi Ming thought about it, the more he felt that his head was big, and the more he looked at his grandfather, the more he felt that the latter was mysterious.

Grandpa naturally didn't notice Qi Ming's little thoughts, he was originally just telling a story, and place names such as Buzhou Mountain in the Northwest Sea were told casually, and the gourd babies didn't have much knowledge, so naturally they wouldn't have any associations.

He could never have imagined that there would be a freak like Qi Ming, who was not only familiar with the general geography of the mountains and rivers in this world, but even lived the soul of a modern man, looking at him with an outsider's gaze.
