After washing off the dirt on his hands, Xiaodong scooped up water from a bamboo tube, handed it to Mo Chen to drink first, and drank the remaining half by himself after he drank it.
"Eldest brother, don't we go back?"
"Wait a little longer."
What are you waiting for
Xiaodong didn't ask out loud, but the meaning was clearly in his eyes.
But then he opened his eyes wide, and couldn't care less about asking Mo Chen what he was waiting for.
The place where the green grass he planted just now has sprouted!
He started planting from the northeast corner of the field, planting one row full and then planting the next row.
But now these small green seedlings seem to be grabbed by an invisible hand, one after another emerges from the soil, and after a short effort, the entire field is already full.
"This, this is..."
Xiaodong was stunned, tongue-tied, turned to look at Mo Chen, trying to get an answer from him.
Green oil grass is a kind of medicinal herb that is easy to plant and has many uses. It can be used when refining several kinds of elixirs. Generally speaking, if it is planted today, it may germinate the next day, and it will take less than two months. Kung fu can be harvested once. But... But even if it germinates quickly, it can't be so fast.
Mo Chen stood up and said leisurely: "Make a mark, let's go back first, and come back in the evening."
Xiaodong was full of doubts, so he went to mark a seedling and came back.
"Brother, what's going on here?"
"I've always had a guess in my heart, and I verified it just now." Mo Chen said softly, "Do you still remember the herbs that were planted in the Beifu City medicine garden?"
"Remember… "
At that time, the herbal medicine germinated faster than expected. At that time, I thought the reason might be that the seeds given by Ji Zhenren were different. But these green oil grass seeds are from their mountain, there is no adventure at all, and these are planted one by one by Xiaodong himself, without the hands of others.
So... it's not the seed, it's his own reason
Xiaodong looked at his hands wonderingly: "I really don't know."
Mo Chen pointed to the ground for him to see for himself.
Under the comparison of a piece of small seedlings, there are several omissions in the last line, and the seeds here have not germinated.
"These are the ones I planted."
The plants that Xiaodong planted all sprouted without exception, but the few trees that Mo Chen helped him plant later did not move at all. The same seeds, the one he planted will germinate, but the one planted by the elder brother will not.
The reason must be him.
"Elder brother, why is this?"
Obviously it was her own fault, but Xiaodong instinctively wanted to seek the answer from Mo Chen.
"Have you ever wondered why this vine follows you?"
Xiaodong looked down.
The vine was originally wrapped around his wrist, but now it poked its head out from the sleeve, and the end swayed towards him twice, as if nodding.
Is it because of the vines
No no, I didn't have any vines when I was in Beifu City, and I only met this guy in Tianjian City. Before he met the vines, he already had this special ability.
"But I, I don't know..."
"En." Mo Chen patted his head: "It doesn't matter, it will be clear in the future."
It's just that this matter can't be known to everyone, of course the master can report it truthfully, as for the others... It's not that Mo Chen can't trust his fellow students, but that when there are too many people, it is inevitable that there will be slip-ups. What's more, there are still a group of Tianji Mountain disciples who want to go up the mountain to stay.
In the afternoon, dozens of disciples from Tianji Mountain braved the rain and went up the mountain. The leader was Shi Lusong, the second apprentice of Hu Zhenren. He had met all the disciples of Huiliu Mountain before, and some of them had some friendship. Talking in greeting doesn't feel unreasonable at all. Huiliu Mountain has no other advantages, that is, it is a big place. Especially the guest courtyard, which is divided into three parts. One is behind Shen Yunjian, where it is quiet. But because of the commotion on the mountain two days ago, Li Fulin didn't plan to put people there. The other two places are very close, and they are both next to the Immortal Lake, facing the water, and leaning against the mountain.
The guest house had been empty for a long time, so Jiang Fan and the others tidied it up, and took some things from the library to bring them there. Hu Zhenren also said to him: "There is no need to clean up. When they come, let them do it themselves. One or two are not here to be uncles."
That's what I said, but how can I let people live without doing anything
The mountain was originally deserted, but suddenly dozens of people came, and it suddenly became lively. These people have different levels of cultivation, some have already fasted, and some still eat three times a day without the fireworks in the world. Get up and read books aloud, and some practice morning exercises with swords and swords. Xiaodong found that the disciples taught by Master Hu were different from those taught by others. The disciples of other sects are like being poured out of the same mold. They learn the same and practice the same, but the realm is different. However, Master Hu's disciples are of all kinds. If you don't know that they are from the same sect, you may think that they are disciples from different sects.
Tianji Mountain is not good at swordsmanship. Their reputation in the world has nothing to do with the level of kung fu. Therefore, kung fu is also practiced, but it is not the most important thing. Hu Zhenren teaches his disciples to be different from others. To develop with the different interests and strengths of each person, it can be regarded as a thorough use of the four words of teaching students in accordance with their aptitude.
Xiaodong also heard Shao Jinming and the others whispering that among the disciples of Master Hu, there was one who was particularly interested in the dead. I heard that this person was originally rescued by Hu Zhenren from the pile of dead people. He was a child who was less than ten years old at the time. He is particularly interested in all kinds of dead bodies, especially dead people. Later, he dug out a tattered so-called secret book from the pile of old books in Tianji Mountain. At first, many people laughed at him, thinking that this person was purely obsessed with ghosts, but he didn't expect that this person really learned and mastered that book. Created a method of divination with dead bodies. Everyone in the world says that a dead person cannot speak, but this person's unique ability is to get all the answers he needs from a dead person.
This unorthodox ability sounds like a chill, if it weren't for the protection of Hu Zhenren, it might have been eradicated as a crooked evil spirit.
Xiaodong had heard of this person before, but he hadn't seen him when he went to Tianji Mountain last time. This time they went up the mountain together, and this disciple surnamed Wei was also there. This person is easy to recognize, his face is pale and expressionless, and he looks like... just breath more than a dead person.
Although they knew that he was not a bad person, everyone instinctively didn't want to get too close to him. Duan Ping said quietly: "It's probably because his surname is not good in the first place. You think, half of Wei's characters are ghosts, so this person looks half-human and half-ghost."
Shao Jinming gave him an elbow: "Don't talk nonsense, there are so many people surnamed Wei in the world, is it possible that half of them are ghosts?" (To be continued)
