Chapter 8 (2/2)
Fortunately, elder martial brother Jiang is such a warm-hearted person. In his opinion, the younger martial brother is still a half grown child. How can he manage such a big thing? Besides, he is now a disciple of backflow mountain. The elder martial brother can't stand idly by.
”Some of these things are on the mountain, and some have to go down the mountain.” Elder martial brother Jiang looked at the sky outside: ”it may not be possible these two days. The wind is too strong. I'm afraid it will snow. When the weather gets better, I'll accompany you down the mountain to buy in the town. Don't worry. Although the town is not big enough, you can buy all these things, and you can't miss your big business. ”
Looking at his younger martial brother's thin appearance, Jiang Fan poured a large cup of hot tea and took a bag of willow leaf candy from the cupboard. I don't know when to bring him the willow leaf candy: ”eat it, eat more, I have more sugar in winter. You are no better than us. Don't get sick againXiaodong nodded and warmed his hands with a cup of tea in his hands. Reed leaf candy is actually a kind of candy sold in the town on the mountain. The sugar is not very good, it is not too sweet, and it can't be cut into shape. It's like willow leaves. But it's very sweet and fragrant to eat with hot tea.
Jiang Fan searched the room for something.
”By the way, elder martial brother, why haven't I seen any birds and beasts on the mountain these days?”
The place where Xiaodong lived before was almost on the mountain. In the early morning, he always woke up in the chirping birds. But Huihui mountain is not like this. Xiaodong was not in the mood to pay attention to other things at first, but now he feels strange.
Why didn't you hear the birds all the time? Don't you see any birds moving around? Not to mention that there must be rabbits, Caragana, roe and deer in such a deep mountain.
”You just want to ask?” Jiang fan is not tall, and is standing on tiptoe to reach a box on the shelf: ”we have arrays on the mountain that can expel wild animals and birds of prey, making them difficult to get close to. After all, there are many disciples of other schools who don't have much Kung Fu. They have learned the three moves and two moves. It's really hard to say who ate the tiger when they meet a tiger.”
Xiaodong is a little embarrassed by this. He can't say that he can defeat the tiger with his kung fu.
”Array? Is it set by the master? ”
It turns out that the master is so powerful.
”It seems that the formation was set by the grandmaster? For many years, I haven't seen any birds or wild animals around our mountain since I remember. There are no flies or mosquitoes in the summer
When the elder martial brother said this, Xiaodong remembered: ”I remember. In summer, there is no need to smoke or spray medicine. There are no mosquitoes to bite. ”
But it wasn't long before his uncle died. He was so depressed and absent-minded that he didn't notice these things at all.
”It's amazing. I've heard of the formation before, but I've never seen it with my own eyes. I didn't expect that there would be array on the mountain. Elder martial brother, do you know how to set up the array? ”
Jiang Fan laughed: ”I can't. It seems that the master has only learned a little, but the elder martial brother seems to know a little bit. If you want to learn, you can ask him. Shifu also has some old books. I don't know which generation they were handed down. They are all incomplete. The array above is also about. If you want to read them, you can ask them when the master comes back. ”
”Well, I'll certainly go.” After drinking the hot water, he warmed a lot. Xiaodong asked curiously, ”what are you looking for, elder martial brother?”
After a long time of searching, he didn't find him, and his head was full of sweat.
”I only used a box of hand polish oil that my elder martial brother brought back for me when he came back the other day. I don't know where I can find it.”
Xiaodong stood up and said, ”is it in a small box like a peach stone? You seem to have put your hands by the well after practicing
By the well platform? Jiang Fan thought for a moment, as if he had let go of swords and handkerchiefs. He had no impression whether he had let go of the box of oil.
”Then I'll go and find it. Younger martial brother, you can sit down for a while. There is still hot water in the pot. Remember to pour water for yourself.”
Xiaodong also stood up: ”elder martial brother, I will go back.”
As soon as he got out of the house, he was very popular. Fortunately, the elder martial brothers lived close to each other. Crossing the hanging mountain corridor was where he lived. Xiaodong is really afraid of being blown down by the wind, so he moves back step by step with the railing of the Stone Gallery.
The corridor bridge is in the air, facing the abyss below. Usually, even when the weather is clear, I can't see the bottom when I look down from the bridge. The wind whirled up from the soles of the feet, and the wind was like crying and howling.
He didn't dare to let go of the Bridgeman. If he fell down, the immortal couldn't save him.
After walking two steps across the bridge, Xiaodong breathed a long sigh of relief.
His face was numb, and his face was frozen.
I heard elder martial brother say that the winter of Huihui mountain is very cold, but I didn't expect it to be so cold. He hurried into the inner room and took the warm wood specially prepared by the elder martial brother into his arms. It is said that it is produced in the far southwest of China. It is an island called Linzhou. There is nothing strange about it. It is warm. The piece that master brother brought back was two feet long. Xiaodong held it in his arms and pasted his face.
”Hoo...” Holding warm wood Wu for a long time, I finally feel alive again.
It's said that it's not the coldest time yet. He has wrapped everything he can wear on his body. If it gets colder this day, Xiaodong doubts whether he will be frozen into a man.
