Chapter 03: The Dounan Mountains
"This time, let the little sixth brother go first, and I'll run over slowly with you. Haruka said.
"Whatever you say, whatever, ouch. Yuan Cheng sat on the stone bench in the courtyard and suddenly jumped up holding his knees.
"Haha, look at you, you are still in good shape, you can touch this. Yao'er suddenly laughed, and even the maids in the yard laughed, this little master, he is very good-looking and has a good temper, but sometimes he is rough and rough, and he usually makes jokes.
"Little Sixth Brother, don't worry about the matter of the silver two, just go to the house to find the housekeeper to mention it when you get to the city, and return the account book, I will talk about it when I get to the house." If you're ready to prepare, go over first. After Yao'er finished speaking, she took Yuan Cheng to the kitchen, wrapped a few pieces of cake, and asked the maid to pack a few clothes, make two bags, and throw a bag to Yuan Cheng.
"Sister Yao'er, we just run forty miles, do we need to carry so many things?" asked Yuan Cheng.
"The two of us are going to the house of Dounan City, but I plan to take you along the Dounan Mountain Range, so that we can see if there are any mountain treasures and medicinal materials along the way, recently Aunt Yuan has been unwell, and the medicinal herb shop in the city has just run out of this medicine, and this medicine is available at the foot of the Dounan Mountain Range.
"Mother, is she sick? I don't even know. Did you get sick recently? Yuan Cheng asked with concern.
"Aunt Yuan is fine, but she has some headaches and discomforts, she has an old problem, and she has an occasional seizure, it doesn't matter. ”
After Yao'er finished speaking, he stepped on his baggage, picked up his sword, and walked towards the gate.
"Wait for me, Sister Yao'er, you have a sword, what do I use, I'll just have a bamboo sword, this weapon can't even kill a rabbit." After saying that, he stepped on his baggage, shook his hands, and went out.
"Just follow me, watch more, ask more questions, and say less irrelevant things. It is estimated that it has been a time to go to Yuan Mansion in Dounan City all the way. When the time comes, we will eat fish if we can catch fish, eat rabbits if we have hares, and keep dry food for now. And the baking stuff is left to you. Sister Yao'er looked like an eldest sister, and after going out, she spread out her body and ran quickly.
"Sister Yao'er, wait for me, you are running so fast now, you won't be able to run for a while. Yuan Cheng also unfolded his body and ran with it.
"Hey, you're not bad, you've made a lot of progress lately, and you can keep up with me running so fast. Half a year ago, it was like a soft-footed shrimp, forcing you to run, and you couldn't run. Yao'er cast an approving glance as she ran, and then secretly quickened her pace.
An hour later, "Sister, slow down, I'm already the fastest, no matter how fast the pace is, it will be unstable, and when the time comes, it's not good to drop a dog and eat, and break my handsome face, ah!" Yuan Cheng This kid is really a crow's mouth, and as soon as he finished speaking, he stumbled and flew out. Yao'er quickly stopped.
"Fuck, who's so immoral to throw something round in the grass. It caused me to slip and fall to my death. Yuan Cheng scolded and grinned, grinning at his knees.
"Xiaocheng is fine, blame me for being too fast. How can there be round things in this grass, what is it?" Yao'er first helped Yuan Cheng look at his knee, and was relieved to find that it was only a skin injury, and then turned around and went to the grass to check.
"Hey, it's actually scattered Buddha beads, and there are many of them. Haruka said.
"Sister Yao'er, there is not a single temple on this Dounan Mountain Range. Although this is the foot of the mountain, if a monk is passing by, it is impossible to throw Buddhist beads everywhere, there must be a problem. Although Yuan Cheng was unhappy in his heart, he did say it well, how could there be scattered Buddha beads in the grass at the foot of the mountain.
"Sister Yao'er, you see that there are also here, and there are also other ones. Yuan Cheng picked up these Buddha beads and looked at them, the surface of the Buddha beads was gloomy, and there was no aura at all.
"Xiao Cheng, do you think there will be a monk and someone else fighting here, and then the monk will use the Buddha beads as a weapon to pop out?"
"Yes, yes, Sister Yao'er, you are smart, this must be someone fighting here. You can see there's blood on the rocks over there. Yuan Cheng said to Sister Yao'er.
Sure enough, following Yuan Cheng's gaze, there were mottled blood stains on the stone, and scattered Buddha beads were embedded in it.
"Doesn't this bloodstain have dried yet? It looks like it's still around, we need to be careful, and it's better not to cause trouble. You see, one of these Buddha beads is the size of the chestnut, such a big Buddha bead, then its owner must be very powerful, and such a powerful person is injured. Yao'er said with a stern face.
"Sister Yao'er, what are you afraid of, they all say that the people of the Buddhist family are universal to all sentient beings and have mercy on the world, can they still eat me. I'm going to go and see, in case we get hurt or something, don't we still have some hemostatic medicine and bone-setting medicine on our bodies? Didn't they all say that saving people's lives would be better than building a seventh-level floating slaughter? Amitabha. Yuan Cheng said with a grin.
"Alright, alright, let's go check it out. Yao'er was a little relieved, and also looked for the bloodstains.
"There's a lot of bushes, hey, sister, see if that's the herb we're looking for." Yuan Cheng's eyes were sharp, and he saw the herbs to be picked this time at a glance.
"Yes, that's exactly the kind of herb we need. Yo, Xiaocheng, you're good, you still know herbal medicine, I thought you knew how to be idle and bully other people's little girls. Yao'er couldn't hide the joy on her face, but she still took the opportunity to hit him.
"Sister Yao'er, how do you speak, I am handsome and chic, with great ambitions, and I will show my ambitions in the future, go up the mountain to cultivate immortals, and become a great immortal, and the beauties in the world are mine, hahaha. Yuan Cheng crossed his hands on his hips, raised his head and laughed, looking triumphant.
"You just dream, go and dig it out. Yao'er patted Yuan Cheng's head and handed over a medicine shovel.
"Dig and dig, every time I am asked to do this kind of rough work. Yuan Cheng looked dissatisfied.
"Be careful not to dig it up, don't hurt the roots, that's where the essence is. Hurry up, don't you still want to find that injured monk? Yao'er said while commanding Yuan Cheng.
"yes, yes, how did I forget about it. Save someone's life, Amitabha. Okay, just four herbs can't stump me. Yuan Cheng wrapped the four herbs in paper.
"This bloodstain is getting less and less, it is estimated that it is not far away, Sister Yao'er, look at me, when I was chasing wild meat in the mountains, I never escaped. Yuan Cheng stood up with a smile that couldn't help me, then sniffed the oncoming breeze and looked at a big tree.
"You also said that as a young master, you know all day long that you are like a wild man, going to the mountains every day to drill grass and dig birds' nests. As soon as Yao'er heard this, she became angry, it was because this kid didn't do her job, so she wanted to be a housekeeper, but she was relieved when she thought that this kid was too young.
"Shhhh ”
"Who is it?" Before Yuan Cheng could pass, a voice came from behind the tree, the voice was sonorous and powerful, and it shook people's ears a little.
"Master, we are passers-by who collect medicines. Yao'er was also taken aback, and then hurriedly said.
"Since you are a medicine picker, you have something like gold sore medicine on you, can you lend me a chance to return it to you in the future." The man behind the tree said.
"Yes, we only found it when we saw blood, and we wanted to save people. Yuan Cheng walked around behind the tree as he spoke, and Yao'er didn't have time to hold him.
What caught his eye was a tall monk leaning on the trunk of a tree, his robe was broken at this time, Yuan Cheng could see a variety of wounds on the monk's body at a glance with his experience in the mountains and forests, and almost all of his upper body were sword marks, knife marks, and claw marks. Although the bleeding had stopped from those wounds, the monk's face was pale at this time, and it was estimated that he had lost too much blood.
"Master, we have hemostatic dispersion here, as well as qi dispersion, you can use it first. Yao'er took out the medicine wrapped in kraft paper from the baggage and handed it over.
The monk was not polite, and after taking it, he took a look at the two brothers and sisters, and after finding that there was nothing abnormal, he swallowed the powder. Then he sat up cross-legged and meditated, and there was a faint golden light overflowing from his body.
Yuan Cheng felt curious, and after watching it for a while, Yao'er pulled away. "Why do you keep staring at people, don't you want someone to teach you how to behave? ”
"I do have this idea, but I see that he is full of golden light, he must have cultivated the immortal law, it is better to ask for an immortal law, which is much stronger than the body method. Yuan Cheng rolled his eyes and said.
"What you think is beauty, can something like immortal law be accessible to a kid like you? You also want to learn the cultivation of a three-legged cat, it is better to teach it to you, and then teach you when I learn it." Yao'er nodded his forehead and said with a grin.
