Along the way, the three of them watched the wonders of Shu, and their moods were obviously making great progress. After the incident of the jade slip, Leng Xiaoran's mood grew again, and a steady and vast meaning spread from the depths of the soul.
Now the three of them have walked in the countryside of Western Shu. The terrain here is no longer as rugged and difficult as the Shu Road, so this place is also bustling. In the country road, people and figures appear and disappear from time to time. The arrival of Leng Xiaoran and the other two did not attract the attention of the locals. It seemed that they were already used to it.
Three people took a short break in a restaurant, but heard about the scenic spots in Shu.
The whole family sat at the table and ate side dishes. One of them seemed to be only five or six years old. He seemed to be not interested in the dishes here, and he pouted and stared at his mother. "Haha, Xiaobo will have another bite." The old man over fifty years old coaxed the child beside him, "Well! No! Grandpa, I want to look at the snails, I want to look at the snails, I want to look at the snails, I want to look at the - I want to look at the -" The little boy seemed not to buy the old man's account at all.
The young woman opposite the old man glared at the little boy and scolded, "Don't be naughty. Have some more meals, and I'll be hungry again later." After the young woman glared at her, the little boy was a little restrained, but after looking at everyone with a weird look, he started to make trouble again.
"Okay, okay, let's go see the snail later. Now I've had a little meal a few times, so I can see more snails later." Grandpa is still the old man's spicy, and he was very tempted to the little boy, "Come on, to see the snail, take another bite, oh, so Xiaobo is so well-behaved. Well! Let's have another bite, it's good..."
Ye Lin glanced at the old man and secretly despised the old man, "Swish, the lewd old man."
After Leng Xiaoran glanced at them, she ignored them and savored the tea in her bowl by herself. She watched the green tea leaves in the tea sink in the water, and quietly thought, not knowing whether she was recalling the past or thinking about the mystery of water.
"Well... the family is so happy!" Feng Ji looked at the harmonious family with some envy, and felt a lot of emotion in his heart. He thought that his parents had already been integrated into the land of China and had been sleeping for thousands of years. His eyes suddenly dimmed, "Think about the meaning more, why bother to find trouble? Let's go!"
Standing at this moment, the two tourists behind him said, "Hey brother, do you know? The famous scenery of Western Shu!"
"Oh! Famous scenery, there are many scenic spots in Western Shu. Brother, where are you talking about?" said another young literati.
"Haha, of course it is Canglang Mountain nearest. Do you know? The colorful demon snails there are famous all over the world. There are colorful demon snails that are half-man-sized, and their shells are colorful, making tourists linger. Some tourists even stop leaving here because of this, just for colorful demon snails. At this time of year, the colorful demon snails will slowly emerge from the water cave, and then you can feast your eyes." The man who seemed to be a bit like a snail looked at the gentle young man with a dirty face.
"It turned out to be a colorful demon snail. I am ashamed. I have come here several times to enjoy the beautiful scenery on earth, but it has never been realized. I heard what my brother said this time and was fortunate to watch the colorful demon snail once. This time, I was lucky to see the colorful demon snail once. Thank you, brother." The literati casually perfunctorily, and then hurried to the Canglang Mountain Shushui Cave.
"Huh? The colorful demon snail in Canglang Mountain's water cave? When did Western Sichuan have such a beautiful scenery? Why haven't I heard of it?" Ye Lin scratched his earplugs and said.
This statement immediately attracted several contemptuous eyes, "Uh..." Ye Lin was a little stunned, "No way? This will also arouse public anger." Ye Lin seemed very unhappy, and Feng Qi next to him smiled, feeling a little gloating at Ye Lin's encounter with such a situation.
"Well, when will Canglang Mountain have colorful demon snails?" Leng Xiaoran frowned and seemed to find something interesting. Then, her brows quickly stretched out and said to the two people behind her: "Then go to Canglang Mountain. Go and see the so-called colorful demon snails." Leng Xiaoran smiled faintly.
"Yeah, that's where to go. I'll see what I can be proud of!" Ye Lin said in an atmosphere.
"That's right, just take a look. You're not afraid of not seeing it. Hehe..." Feng Qi seemed to arouse Ye Lin's competitive spirit.
The group left in the strange eyes of passers-by.
The Canglang Mountain is extremely harsh. From the foot of the mountain, it looks like looking at a ladder, straight like a pillar of heaven that reaches the sky. However, in the eyes of Leng Xiaoran and others, it is only that. In Leng Xiaoran's perception, Canglang Mountain does not suppress the Chinese fortune or the spiritual energy of the earth veins, which means that there is nothing to be praised except for the steep terrain.
However, in recent years, some strange and extremely charming colorful snails appear in the Shuishi Cave at the foot of Canglang Mountain in recent years, crawling in the stream at the foot of Canglang Mountain. This stream is accompanied by Chijiang, so the color of the stream is light red. In conjunction with the mystery and beauty of the five-colored snails, this has attracted the sightseeing of several people.
The three of them were very fast, and soon after, they directly left the rushing young scholar behind.
"Hehe, that fool is really slow!" Ye Lin seemed to have a childlike heart, so Feng Zhi whispered beside him: "It's so innocent and cute, it's still innocent and worth cultivating!"
Leng Xiaoran did not participate or pay attention to Feng Ji and the others' play, and thought silently in his heart: "There are indeed some aquariums in the Chijiang River. Is the appearance of those colorful demon snails related to them? I have heard of colorful demon snails, which are charming but not vulgar, kind but not cowardly. They are also a kind of weak demon snails. They don't appear in the crowd and splendidly themselves. I guess something is forcing them."[
On the way, on the ground by the roadside, an old man was walking with an injured young man. The old man looked at the young man next to him and felt a little afraid to look like it. "Oh, I said you just didn't listen. Now, I'm going to be harmed by the monster. You, you...ah!"
The young man lowered his head and did not dare to refute the old man's words.
At this time, Leng Xiaoran indeed paid attention to the two men, one old and one strong, with a trace of speculation in his eyes. Then, Leng Xiaoran walked forward calmly and said to the old man: "Old man, what's wrong with this person? Why is he so deeply injured?" Leng Xiaoran said in surprise, and was a little concerned about the young man.
The young man was moved to Leng Xiaoran, but then lowered his head again, as if he was a little painful. The old man suddenly appeared at Leng Xiaoran, but the old man seemed to be full of bitterness and was waiting for someone to bear it. He didn't want Leng Xiaoran to appear suddenly, which was really in line with the old man's wish.
"Young man! Are you from another place?" The old man understood very well, but he still had to say it at the beginning of this paragraph.
"That's right, I wonder if something happened nearby?" Leng Xiaoran continued the old man's words and asked the old man.
"Oh. Yes, yes. But it's a long story, but my child was hurt by Chijiang's demon." The old man said briefly.
"Chijiang Water Demon! It's true." Leng Xiaoran thought to himself. "So... why didn't such a dangerous thing happen before?" Leng Xiaoran pondered for a moment and then asked the old man again, as if he was so persistent that he had broken the cauldron and asked to the end.
"This... I don't know much. However, the monsters in Chijiang have only recently started to hurt people. In recent months, I often hear the fishermen in Chijiang often stay at night. Later I found out that they have...ah." The old man said as he said, he burst into tears, "There are my old friend who forgot his age, he...ah."
The old man felt that he was talking a little far away, so he coughed a few times, then lifted the gourd around his waist and poured two mouthfuls of water to moisten his throat. Then he said to Leng Xiaoran: "After the fisherman's disaster, the city lord of Chijiang City did not take any measures. In the short term, the fisherman's death brought panic to Chijiang City, and the city lord was also concerned about it. Two days later, the city lord sent a young and strong man to Chijiang. He thought this strange thing would be calmed down. But..."
The old man then preached the wonderful part, and the wonderful part was the most heartbreaking part of the old man. The old man was silent for a while, and two lines of tears were filled with tears, "Dad, this is my own voluntary, so don't be like this. I feel very sad for a child like this, it's the child's unfilial piety." The young man couldn't help crying, and at the same time he was safe in his father.
"I have children in my old age, so I have asked you to support me, but now you are like this, what should I do?" The old man became more and more sad as he cried. Ye Lin on the side looked at him and became more and more disgusting. He walked directly under the tree on the side...
Leng Xiaoran already fully understood the incident. Leng Xiaoran had no disagreement with the old man's selfishness. This was just a human nature after all.
Then, Leng Xiaoran looked at the old man's twilight years and looked weak, and whispered to the old man: "Old man, my family is a medical family, so I have a little understanding of medical skills. Why don't you let me see your son's injuries?"
"You...this...I'm not thanking you, my son, thank you." After being stunned, the old man felt a little suspicious, but then the old man realized that his son was unsaved, so he should treat him as a living horse, so let's try it.
Leng Xiaoran took out a light from the back of his right hand, and then, without attracting the attention of others, Leng Xiaoran took out a crystal clear blue pill like a gem from his right hand and said to the old man: "Old man, this is the best medicine for saving people and applying injuries from my family."
"You take it. You can heal internal and external injuries within a hundred days, and remove bruises within a year. If combined with jade honey, the effect will be even better." Leng Xiaoran of course could not take out the pills used by the practitioner, but this pill is not as ordinary as Leng Xiaoran said.
"Thank you, my son, thank you." The old man had never seen much of the world, so he was very happy for Leng Xiaoran's help.
Then, Leng Xiaoran and the other two left with the thanks of the old man and the young man.
