Otherworldly Merchant
Chapter 161 Disrupted Fantasy (more)
So, is the road we're taking now a road or a trail?
I suddenly stopped and took a closer look at the road under my feet. There must have been a lot of people walking down the road, they were sturdy, not even a few weeds.
Assuming it's the avenue in a skinny woman's mouth, where is the avenue hidden?
When I couldn't stop, Daoist Wong hurried over and said: "This little brother, why did he stop suddenly...”
I meditated for a moment and suddenly made up my mind. Without thinking, I gave up my footpath and walked with Uncle Niu into the grass where half the people were.
The student party in the back looked strange. Meow hugged Adu's arm and said: “What's wrong with this man's brain? Let's not follow him. ”
Adoo was still hesitating, and the man with the frost and sunglasses had accidentally followed my footsteps, followed by Taoist Wong. Doo thought about it and came with a bunch of students.
The student who crawled halfway through the tree could no longer walk, falling to the ground and shouting a string of wails!
Cold as frost gave a glance to the sunglasses man, the sunglasses man immediately went forward to carry the student, his body was tall and thin, but his strength was surprising, the student suddenly much more comfortable.
We walked forward, not knowing how long, and finally found an old iron rope bridge at the end of the forest.
Hanging between the two peaks, this iron rope bridge is very rudimentary, with a plank of wood on two rusty iron chains, some of which have decayed over the years, revealing large holes in many pits and depressions.
As soon as the wind blows, the Iron Cable Bridge makes a rare noise, it looks extremely dangerous!
At this time, the sky had turned dark and the clouds covered half the sky. Uncle Niu looked very happy. He pointed to the Iron Ribbon Bridge and said: "Brother Zhang, this must be the bridge to the old village, let's... let's hurry over. ”
“Take it easy! Now that it's here, it's not too bad for half the time.” I lowered my voice to comfort him and said to the people behind me: “I'm going to visit the situation across the street now. If you feel dangerous, don't follow me, stay where I am. ”
Dropping that sentence, he didn't go back to the Iron Ribbon.
I'm not afraid of heights, but when I wobble, I get dizzy and sweaty in my hands. I took a deep breath and took a sneak peek down to see the mountain that was so deep that it looked like a big mouthful of blood that I could swallow it at any moment.
I suddenly felt a little soft on my legs, and at this point, a cold reminder came from behind me: "Keep going, don't get distracted. ”
Although she was young, she spoke at a time when she revealed maturity incompatible with her age.
I looked back at her and saw that she and I were only a few planks apart, very close.
I smiled with gratitude at her and took a deep breath to keep moving forward.
By the time I walked across the Iron Ribbon Bridge, my clothes had all been soaked with sweat.
Immediately thereafter, Cold as Frost and others also followed. Except for Cold as Frost and sunglasses men, everyone else was shaking their white legs straight...
The roads near the Iron Ribbon Bridge, though also dilapidated, have apparently been meticulously repaired, with crushed stones stretching deep into the mountains.
Uncle Niu's eyes lit up instantly: "Found it, found it! This must be it! ”
I turned my head and looked at the crowd and found that everyone's expression was greedy.
I suddenly feel that these people in front of me do not seem easy, maybe they are like me, they are not lost in the mountains at all, the trip is to find the place of the old village!
We were all silent along the way and continued along the crushed rock road.
The legendary village is just down the hill, with cliffs all over it. The houses in the village are very quaint and are the oldest stone houses because the sky is late and only a few lights are lit sporadically.
The first thing Uncle Niu went into the village was to look everywhere for water wells, as if the water source was a magic medicine to save lives. However, the village wells were in the yard of all households. There were no common wells outside, and Uncle Niu ran all sweaty and didn't find a drop of water.
I looked around and just felt like this little village was dead water, quiet almost terrible.
Uncle Niu couldn't find the well, he had to knock on the door in a hurry. It took a long time for an old man with a limp waist to slowly open a door stitch, and his old voice howled and asked: "Who is it? ”
Uncle Niu said excitedly, "Anybody? Quick... open the door! Help! ”
The old man looked up and down at Uncle Niu: “Whose life? ”
“Come on, save my son's life!” Uncle Niu showed the calf on his back to the old man and shouted impatiently: “Quick... give us some water. ”
The old man didn't really want to either, so he turned around and came out with a bowl of water. Uncle Niu picked up Baodi and fed him to the calf's mouth without thinking: “Son, drink this water quickly, drink whatever is sick. ”
The calf was torn apart all day and in a very bad mental state, he heard the voice confused and barely opened his mouth with a stitch.
Uncle Niu carefully poured the water in, just two sips, and the calf gave a severe cough, not only spitting out all the water, but even coughing up some blood clots.
Uncle Niu panicked completely: "Son, are you okay? ”
He looked at the old man for help: "What's going on? ”
The old man winked: “How do I know?” Think about it and react immediately: “You didn't hear the legend of the old village come looking for the Fountain. ”
Uncle Mune nodded.
The old man nicely retrieved the lady: “Idiot, there are no villages and springs like that in the world, they are made up to lie to children. ”
After listening, Uncle Niu instantly felt like he had lost his soul. He looked at his son later and looked at the village later.
I guess I can understand his mood, like a mountain climber, wanting to conquer the mountain peaks just to see the beautiful landscape at the top of the mountain. But when he struggled to climb all the way up the mountain, he found that there was nothing on the top of the mountain, and that disappointment would defeat any strong man.
Uncle Niu is hopeless and completely stupid.
Adouche couldn't wait, pointing to the student who had been put down by the man with the sunglasses: “Old man, my friend is hurt, do you have any medicine? ”
“Where did you get hurt?" he asked. ”
“Legs, his legs seem to be broken!” Adu said.
The old man shouted: “My leg is broken, the usual medicine is not easy to use, you have to find the old man, he is the only one in our village who can take bones. ”
“Old man, then take us.” Adu urged.
“All right, all right.” The old man was wearing a coat, as if he hadn't found us, and he walked up to the other side of the village with Adu and others.
Looking at their backs from afar, Huang Daoist came over and asked, “What are we going to do? ”
Without waiting for me to ask, the cold frost has turned to tell the sunglasses man: “This village is not normal, let's follow it. ”
The sunglasses man, um, quickly followed her footsteps.
It's not normal?
Let me take a look around. What's wrong with this village except it's quiet?
I couldn't even think of going out the door. I simply walked to Uncle Niu. At this moment, he was carefully wiping the blood from the corner of the calf's mouth. After seeing me, he asked stubbornly: "Brother Zhang, the old village is fake, my God has collapsed. ”
I can't really tell you what it's like to see him like this. When I think of Van, and look at the calf, I feel even more sympathy for the father and son, and the comfort of the moment is: “There is no trouble in the world. I'm afraid there are people in my heart. How can you give up if you find the village after so much suffering with the calf? We also went to the old lord's house, and the old lord should know some medicine, in case there is any deviation to cure the calf's disease. ”
While I also know that this possibility is minimal, I have to give Uncle Niu some hope.
Uncle Niu listened to me and his dark eyes lit up again. Without saying anything, he walked forward with his calf on his back. He still didn't forget to thank me on the way: “Brother Zhang, you are such a wonderful man! If God bless the calf to survive, I will make him recognize you as his godfather and honor you well in the future. ”
Godfather, forget it! I laughed helplessly.
