[Chapter 40] The Adventures of the King (1)

It turns out that our regiment has just received an urgent call from the summit. According to the order from the summit, we must set off immediately and rush to a predetermined location hundreds of miles away to assemble and stand by!

The military orders were overwhelming, and the regiment headquarters immediately issued an order. More than 1,000 people in the regiment immediately broke camp and geared up to set off. Our plan could only be postponed.

While walking on the road, I was still thinking about that matter. How could such a military secret be known to Boss Liu, an ordinary soldier? Moreover, it was impossible for Boss Liu to know about the order just issued by Shangfeng before the regiment commander;

After being together for such a long time, I understand that Boss Liu has nothing to do with him, otherwise he would have been a battalion commander or something like that, and he is definitely not a spy. Could it be that he is really who he said he is?

, did you learn it from the mouth of the magpie?

"Boss Liu, is what you said this morning true?" I walked a few steps quickly, caught up with him, and asked in a low voice.

"Of course, brother, will I lie to you?" Seeing Goudan, Dasha and the others following them, he said, "People have their own language, and birds have their own language! It's just that you don't understand!"

"Can birds still talk?" Dasha asked in surprise. To be honest, we have caught many birds and dug out many bird nests since we were young. We have never paid attention to the sounds of birds, let alone thought that they might have their own

language of communication.

"That's right, a little bird can't talk, so how can it call out to friends? Listen, the call of this magpie is definitely not simple!"

Listening carefully, we found that it was indeed unexpected. The call of this magpie was by no means a simple "chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp, chirp.

Shh, chirp, chirp

"Cha" and so on, as well as many complex combinations of syllables that we cannot simulate, coupled with the sound being longer or shorter, faster or slower, higher or lower, ups and downs, and ever-changing, it is indeed possible that it is a kind of human incomprehension.

Learn the language!

"Boss, can you understand the birdsong?"

"It's just superficial. I learned a little bit from our 'Ginseng King' Liu Zhiquan! That King Liu is really a strange person. He can tell where there is ginseng just by listening to the bird calls, and he can accurately identify different bird calls."

I can tell that the ginseng around me is Erjiaozi, Dengtaizi, Liupinye, etc.”

Seeing that we were very interested in these birds chirping and picking ginseng, Boss Liu told us the legendary story of King Liu Shen listening to the birds chirping and picking ginseng:

When I was in my hometown in Northeast China, we mostly hunted for a living, and half of them were herders. They went to the mountains to dig ginseng and sell it to make money to support their families. Hunting is not easy, but it is actually even more difficult! We herders in the mountains.

Most of the families who collect ginseng in the mountains are relatively poor, with the exception of one family, Liu Zhi’s family. Every time Liu Zhiquan goes to the mountains, he never comes back empty-handed, and all he brings back are century-old ginseng!

Because most of the ginseng sold by Liu Shenwang was century-old wild ginseng, which was very valuable, he gradually became famous at that time. People in the area of ​​nearly a hundred miles knew Liu Shenwang's famous name.

As the saying goes, people are afraid of being famous and pigs are afraid of being strong. In those troubled times, being famous was not necessarily a good thing. There were those who were sick, weak, poor, etc. around, and there were always people who came to Liu Shen and Wang's house to ask for some wild ginseng.

Whether it be to save people or cure diseases, King Liu Shen would always welcome anyone who came. He would give some to those who had money, and just give it away to those who had no money.

Late one night, King Liu Shen, who had just slept after a tiring day, heard three gentle knocks on the door, "Pa, Pa, Pa", so he asked loudly, "Who is it? He has already gone to bed. What's the urgent matter?"

Son?

There was no answer outside, only the whistling of the wind! When King Liu Shen saw no answer, he thought it was the wind, so he didn't take it seriously and continued to sleep.

"Pah, pah, pah" sounded the same three times as before, softly and rhythmically. "Looks like I won't be able to sleep well tonight!" King Liu Shen thought of this and shouted.

"Who is it? Come here right now", he put on his clothes and got out of bed, opened the door and

Look, there was no one in front of the door, and the knock on the door didn't sound like it was coming from the wind. It was so strange! Just when he was about to turn around and close the door, suddenly there was a person standing vaguely not far from the door.

I’m not sure, but judging from the long hair, I just know it’s a woman!

"Did you knock on the door just now? What's the matter?" King Liu Shen looked around and saw that there was no one else except the woman in front of him, so he asked.

The strange thing is that the woman didn't answer! Yes, she didn't say a word, she just stood there, facing King Liu Shen and refused to leave!

"What do you want to see me for in the middle of the night? It must be another person who wants some wild ginseng or something. Maybe he is from a poor family and is too embarrassed to speak directly!" King Liu Shen thought about this and asked the woman:

"Sister, do you want some wild ginseng?"

The woman nodded her head desperately, but kept nodding and said nothing.

"Oh, that's so sorry. All the ginseng I dug in the past few days has been sold out. I'm so sorry." King Liu Shen is indeed not talking nonsense. The ginseng he dug is old and he is very famous. Generally,

It was sold on the same day!

After hearing what Liu Shenwang said, the woman slowly turned around and left. Liu Shenwang also shook his head, sighed, and went back to the house to rest.

The next day, he went to the mountain to collect ginseng. King Liu Shen specially picked one and paid an extra 2 cents for it. He planned to give one to the woman if she came to ask for it again last night. It wouldn’t be sold for a big price anyway! Besides, this mountain

Ginseng was originally given by God to everyone in the world, and it was not grown and raised by his old Liu family. He just picked it from the mountains! What's more, the woman might have used this ginseng to save people!

But what happened was that unfortunately, Shopkeeper Yang who collected the wild ginseng must buy all the wild ginseng that King Liu Ginseng brought!

"Okay, King Liu Shen! I've run out of stock these days, so don't keep it! You can sell it all to me. I've been serving you for such a long time. When have I ever treated you badly?"

"Shopkeeper Yang, this two cents is really not for sale, it is reserved for giving away!" King Liu Shen told the story of last night in detail.

"Hahaha, I thought this was a big deal! You can give it away or not. Besides, the woman didn't say she wanted to ask you for help today, right?"

Liu Shenwang, who went to the mountains to collect ginseng all year round, naturally couldn't compete with the smooth-tongued Shopkeeper Yang. After a few exchanges, Shopkeeper Yang finally left the two cents, and Liu Shenwang had no choice but to go home.

That night, just when King Liu Shen was feeling uneasy, just like last night, three regular and gentle knocks on the door rang out again.

When I opened the door, I saw that it was the woman again. Just like yesterday, she was standing opposite, looking at King Liu Shen without saying a word!

"I, I, I'm really sorry." King Liu Shen briefly recounted what happened today and said with guilt, "How about you take this little money and buy some tomorrow?"

Just as King Liu Shen was digging into his pocket, the woman opposite fell straight backwards and fell to the ground with a thud!

King Liu Shen was startled, and he quickly went back to the house to get a lamp to see what was going on with the woman. He fainted immediately! It didn’t matter if he shined the light on her, King Liu Shen screamed and squatted down in fright.

On the ground!
