Under the quantitative expansion method, the result of further identification is that some of the small fish in the lake can regulate yin and yang, and some can replenish qi and nourish the energy.
"It's just an ordinary small fish, not a spiritual fish." Xu Guangling made a basic or overall grading evaluation, and then said: "Their effect of regulating yin and yang is likely to come from their long-term food. The fish in the lake
Water plants. And its effect of replenishing qi and nourishing vitality..."
"Red fruit tree!" Ji Feiyan said, "Red fruit tree seedlings floating from upstream!"
"There may also be fruits from red fruit trees." Ji Feiyan added.
According to this direction, the three of them continued to explore, and then, Tai Cang Yue indeed observed a very light red color in a small amount of small fish.
This small fish is only as big as a finger long and as wide as a finger. It is slightly transparent. It looks a bit transparent in the water, but after you pick it up, its surface will soon turn white, with a white color.
Green, so it’s okay to call it white fish, and there doesn’t seem to be anything wrong with calling it blue fish.
"I didn't see any waterfowl." Tai Cangyue looked around.
Ji Feiyan instantly understood what she meant, and then quickly added: "But the number of fish is wrong. It shouldn't be so small, especially the number of big fish, which is very small."
"There may be people living nearby!"
Xu Guangling gave a brief summary of the two people’s opinions.
So, the itinerary changed again.
Crossing the water from the edge, and circling the lake, the three of them made widening circles, and just as they turned to the opposite side, the three of them discovered a large depression further away.
Where the depression is, that is where the target is.
After spending about a cup of tea, the three of them arrived at the depression, and then they saw...
remains.
Or rather ruins.
The obvious village-style layout is all made of adobe houses or walls. However, it has been abandoned for a long time. Some houses have been completely covered by the grass, while some houses have been destroyed by the grass, showing various fractures and collapses.
"This was an original village that, for some reason, was abandoned."
Xu Guangling looked at the pictures and said, "The reason for giving up may be the earthquake or the disaster, but there are no signs of either, so the more likely reason is that they have a better place to live elsewhere.
.So, Yanyan, tell me, where should we go next?”
Ji Feiyan gave him a roll of her eyes.
Because while they were talking, the three of them had already discovered a less obvious trail behind the abandoned village at almost the same time.
Follow the path and continue walking.
This time, after walking for less than half a day, more than a wisp of smoke appeared on the horizon.
"After such a long time, I finally met someone!" Ji Feiyan said with a slight sigh.
It's just like a normal village outside.
There are more than a dozen households arranged in a chaotic manner with no unified layout.
At this moment, smoke was rising from four or five houses.
And at the head of the village, well, let's call it the head of the village, there were five or six children playing and playing there.
The three of them moved forward without stopping.
When they came closer, the children's play stopped, as if they had been frightened. But their biggest fright was probably not their appearance, but the small baskets they were carrying.
To be precise, they are red fruits in a small basket.
"Mangrove fruit!" One of the eight or nine-year-old children shouted, then turned around and ran like a family!
The remaining children stood there in a daze. Some stared at the fruits carried by the three of them with wide eyes, while others stared at the three of them with wide eyes.
"Little sister, come, tell me, where is this place?" Xu Guangling squatted down and used the Little Red Riding Hood Capturing Technique.
The child's exclamation just now shows that the languages are similar.
His capture technique was very effective. The little girl of four or five who was waved by him walked to his knees with hesitation but without any resistance, and then his big hand gently touched her small hand.
The owner of the little hand was a little surprised.
But after being slightly startled, Xu Guangling successfully held his hand.
However, not all of the people's eyes were on Xu Guangling, only one-third at most, and two-thirds of their eyes were still on the small basket he was holding just now and which was now on the ground.
"Do you know this fruit?" Xu Guangling raised his head slightly and chuckled.
"Honghongguo!" The little girl was a little shy.
"Here, eat one!" Xu Guangling took out a fruit from the basket and handed it to the little girl.
The little girl became a little dull again, not reaching out at all, and even her little body began to look a little stiff, so Xu Guangling started feeding her directly.
"Come on, open your mouth."
The small fruit was put to her mouth.
The little girl opened her mouth unconsciously, and even obvious saliva overflowed to her mouth.
The fragrance of this fruit is indeed something that such a young girl cannot resist.
This move seemed to be something earth-shattering. The children who were still staring blankly at the side had extremely frightened expressions in their eyes. Then, they looked at the little girl with helpless eyes.
describe!
Then, with a crash, they all gathered around Xu Guangling.
"Brother, brother, I know, this is the red fairy fruit!"
"Sir, this is a mangrove fruit!"
"Red treasure fruit!"
Well, mangrove fruit, red fairy fruit, red treasure fruit, red red fruit, I can’t believe that this fruit is so famous and has so many confusing names among these children.
"Have you all eaten this fruit?" Xu Guangling asked.
Shake his head.
Shake his head.
Shake his head.
Still shaking his head.
All the children shook their heads, even the little girl who had just been fed one, but after shaking her head, she seemed to remember something, and then lowered her head with a little red face, and at the same time, she gave Xu Guangling
His big hands held him tighter.
Sure enough, most human babies are very cute.
Xu Guangling directly pulled her to lean on his knees, but asked the other children: "None of you have eaten this fruit?"
"Sir, these mangrove fruits are very precious and we are not qualified to eat them!" one of the older children said.
"Brother, we can't afford Hongbao fruit!"
Before other children could start chirping, the footsteps of adults could be heard not far away.
The big kid who ran back just now appears again.
Following him were three adults, and behind them dozens of steps away, two more adults followed.
One of the three adults is actually an old man, in his sixties or seventies.
"this……"
Coming to the front with caution, the wind, frost and turbidity in the old man's eyes could not conceal the great shock that had just risen. He spoke for a while and then said formally: "Three adults, I don't know where you come from.
?”
The latecomers gradually stopped, and they all stood carefully or respectfully behind the old man.
It can be seen that their respect is directed towards the three of them, Xu Guangling.
"Why do you call us adults?"
Xu Guangling slowly stood up and said with a smile.
The old man's eyes casually glanced at his hand that was still holding the little girl, and then he still said respectfully: "Sir, are you all cultivators?"
Xu Guangling nodded, and then asked: "How do you know this?"
"Sir, there is no one around here for thousands of miles, and you..."
The old man said, and then his eyes glanced at the three baskets of fruits, and the respect in his expression became even heavier, "There are so many mangrove fruits, even the adults in the town can hardly come up with so many at once!
"
"Sir, could you please go home and make some arrangements? If you have any questions, I will definitely tell you everything!"
"Okay!" Xu Guangling nodded.
The plot that follows is probably a bit similar to "I invite you back home, set up wine and kill chickens for food."
It was lunch time now, but the lunch at the old man's house was interrupted.
So do other people.
In a small courtyard, Xu Guangling and three others were sitting on a long bench.
This family may only have this long bench. The old man is sitting awkwardly on a small stool. There are two other middle-aged people with stools, and everyone else is standing.
Including adults and children.
Including this family, as well as people from other families, in this small village, it is estimated that everyone has gathered here at this moment, some came to the yard, and some simply stayed outside the yard.
"Where is this place?" Xu Guangling asked.
"Sir, this is Qingcao Zidian. It is covered with grassland for thousands of miles. Our small village has no name. There is a town a hundred miles east of us called Sanshu Town." The old man replied.
"Are they three more famous trees, or are there only three trees in and around the entire town?"
"There are only three trees in the whole town."
"Three red fruit trees?" Xu Guangling asked again.
"No way! Sir, you are joking!" The old man didn't know how to express his emotions to Xu Guangling's words just now, and then said: "However, among the three trees, one is indeed a red fruit tree."
"How high?" Xu Guangling asked further.
"The corner of that house is high."
The corner of the room is half the height of Xu Guangling and the other three.
In other words, the tree was slightly shorter than the one Xu Guangling had grown before.
"How thick?"
The old man made two horoscope signs with his hands. It was about as thick as a small bowl, um, about ten centimeters.
"How often does the tree bear fruit?"
"Every year."
"Old man, have you ever eaten that fruit?"
Under Xu Guangling's question, a bitter smile appeared on the old man's face, "Sir, mangrove fruits are so precious, how can ordinary people like us have the right to enjoy them!"
"Only cultivators can?"
"yes!"
Then the question comes, "Has there ever been a cultivator in this small village of yours?"
"To be honest, my lord, my eldest grandson was spotted by the town's defense team, summoned over, and taught the art of spiritual practice!" When he said this, the old man looked proud and proud.
"Defense team? To protect against something?" Xu Guangling asked again.
"Rat! Rat on the ground!" the old man almost blurted out!
Okay, whack-a-mole squad?
Xu Guangling was a little suspicious that all the defense teams were children, because if they were children, they wouldn't be paid at all.
And even if no salary is paid, the work enthusiasm will be extremely high!
