"Young man, you are looking for the Buddha and going to the western heavens! How did you find this place like a headless fly?" the tone of the little old man's voice did not match his age at all, like an old urchin. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The two little guys came up stupidly to watch the excitement, and they didn't understand the etiquette at all, as if they had never met anyone since they were born.

"Work, work. You are not allowed to eat until you finish your work. The old man urged the two little men to work, and he himself brought a bamboo to dry.

"May I ask the master Gao Shou?" Tang Linkun leaned forward and asked kindly.

"The old man is about one hundred and thirty years old, and I was one hundred and twenty-nine years old when I arrived on Manshan Island. “

Tang Linkun was taken aback, seeing that this old man's expression was only in his sixties, if what he said was true, then he was more than a hundred years older than himself, and he called himself an old man, he was really qualified, indeed old enough. But the most important thing is what kind of place he said about this Manshan Island, didn't he arrive at the boat base? It's only a few miles away, how did he come to such a strange place?

"Uncle, my master is joking with you, don't believe it. How can a person live to be more than 130 years old? Master, you brag? "A little guy slipped out of the thatched hut with two 'green pine ming', his throat was so uncomfortable that he couldn't help but interject.

"Ah Wang, how do you talk to the master?" the old man rolled his eyes at the servant, took the towel handed over by a servant, and wiped it on his face a few times.

"My grandfather Shennong Chun died in one hundred and eighty-two years, when did the master brag to you? Ah Xing, tell me, is the master a braggart person?" The little old man blushed for a while, and he was about to argue with the little guy named Ah Wang.

Ah Xing Awang usually can't be kicked by the master at every turn, Ah Xing took the opportunity to say: "The junior brother is right, the master just loves to brag, saying that when he was young, he never used to knock on the bamboo pole when he picked chestnuts, and he could jump on the tree ...... with one jump."

When the little old man heard this, he was about to have a seizure when the white beard blew high.

I heard Ngawang reveal again: "The master always says that he can capture a tiger alive, and we have never seen him catch one." ”

Tang Linkun saw that several people were arguing interestingly, so he forcibly suppressed it and didn't laugh out loud.

"You little rabbits, there are no tigers in the Manshan Valley, where do you let the old man catch them. That's it, the old man didn't show his hands today, and you really thought that the old man was playing with you. Say, what do you want to see?" the little old man pressed his ten fingers with a click, as if he were gearing up.

"Can you jump and let's see?" Ah Xing pointed to a persimmon tree three people high, and there were two frozen persimmons on a horizontal fork.

Before the words fell, the old man suddenly plucked onions on dry land, flew up to the thin branch, picked a persimmon with one hand, and gently floated back to the ground like a snowflake, the speed was unbelievably fast.

Tang Linkun immediately recognized that this was the "Soaring into the Sky" in the Flying Divine Technique, and he was speechless for a long time.

"Ah Xing, Ah Wang, one of you, it's so sweet...... No, you two also say that I brag and don't have to eat, young man, you taste the frozen persimmons of our vine mountain. The little old man was going to hand the two ugly fruits to Tang Linkun.

"Master, I want to ...... too I also want to ......" Ah Xing and Ah Wang are still children after all, and they are so anxious that they stomp their feet around the master.

"I don't usually show it to you, because I'm afraid that these side tricks will divide your heart, do you really think that the old man is an old man who can only brag?"

The two persimmons Ah Xing and Ah Wang grabbed their hands, and the two little guys frolicked together.

"The old-timers have unique skills, and I am deeply admired. Tang Linkun crossed his hands on his shoulders and respectfully bowed to the little old man.

"How dare you, how dare you. Lad, please come and sit in the house, you see, patronizing and messing with the children, it is snowing, and it is strange and cold outside......"

The three thatched huts, which look extremely simple from the outside, are warm and elegant inside, and the cedar floors on the ground look a little old, but they are wiped clean, and there are several pots of unknown flowers, each with hundreds of buds, which are about to bud. I don't know where it came from, a fragrance that smells refreshing and refreshing.

Tang Linkun sat a little effortlessly behind a low desk, saw a thick stack of books on the desk, picked up a book casually, and saw that it was full of flowers and plants, and the words below were square, and every stroke was as powerful as a knife carving, but he couldn't recognize any of them, and he was sure that he had never seen this kind of text.

"This is the text of the country of Aolai. ”

The little old man personally brought a few wooden boxes and put them on the table in front of Tang Linkun, which contained some mountain specialties such as pine nuts and cooked chestnuts. Seeing Tang Linkun flipping through the book, he introduced.

"Dare to ask the old seniors about their names?" Tang Linkun asked.

"My master's name is Shennongfeng, my name is Ah Xing, and my junior brother's name is Ah Wang......"

"Go, go, there is no etiquette at all, how do you usually teach you as a teacher?"

Ah Xing stuck out his tongue and ran away.

"Shennong senior, may I ask if this is the country of Aolai?" Tang Linkun asked.

"Exactly, it's the proud country that jumped out of the monkey. ”

"Monkey King?"

Tang Linkun didn't expect that he would come to the country of Aolai described in "Journey to the West".

"Shennong seniors, how do you get to the boat?"

Shennongfeng glanced at Tang Linkun blankly, as if he hadn't heard the question he asked, and talked about it according to his own thoughts......

"Our Shennong family, in the country of Aolai for generations as a doctor, to me is already the sixth generation, when I was eighteen years old, there was a fisherman named Suo Li encountered a storm, relying on the bird to satisfy hunger and hardships came to our country of Aolai, was rescued by my grandfather home, we know that there are many countries at the end of the sea. That Sori lived in my house for twenty years, and then he was homesick, and spent two years building a large sailboat, preparing food and fresh water for a year, and preparing to venture back to his hometown. In order to find more herbs for the world, I took Ah Xing and Ah Wang and boarded his boat. We had not been out to sea for ten days, but we encountered a big storm at sea, and the ship had been drifting at sea for more than three months, and finally got to land, but I didn't expect it to be icy and snowy, and there was no one there. We walked thousands of miles along the coastline, and we still didn't meet a single person, but Sori fell ill......"

Ah Xing came in with a mud pot and poured a cup of emerald boiling water for Tang Linkun.

"Drink, young man, this is the tea tree I found on Manshan Island, and it tastes similar to that of our Aolai country. ”

The teacup was also muddy, and it was blackened by the fire, Tang Linkun swallowed a mouthful of boiling water because of what he was thinking about in his head, so hot that he almost didn't jump, "It's a little bitter, it's good, and it's a little fragrant." ”

Tang Linkun's attention was all on the story told by Shennongfeng, who continued: "The weather was too cold, we hid in a cave for half a year, and the sun finally came out, but unfortunately Suo Li did not survive the cold and died. We walked and stopped, and it took about another year before we came here, and we stayed here for so many years. ”

"Did you write all these books?"

"Yes, over the years, I have climbed many famous mountains and rivers on Manshan Island, and tasted almost all the plants and trees, I am about to rearrange it and transcribe it again in Aolai, I am hopeless to return to Aolai Country in this life, there should be a lot of useful medicinal herbs among the mountains and rivers of Manshan Island. While there's still some time, write these down. It would be nice if Sori's family could be found, and his relics would be returned to his family, and I don't know if there was such a coincidence......?

Shennong Feng poured another cup of tea for Tang Linkun.

"These are the things called Sori. Shennongfeng entered the inner room, took out a big package, and opened it in front of Tang Linkun, there were hundreds of silver coins in the package, and there were words on it. Tang Linkun didn't know either.

"Alas, young man, how did you get to Manshan Island? Did the boat capsize, where are you from?" (To be continued.) )
