Chapter 7 Chapter 5: Coming to Miao Borderlands Again

Bai Su also thought of this, and her voice trembled a little: "It seems that the aliens are encouraging the earthlings to join them: Raging Fire Girl, the old Twelve Heavenly Officials, have all been transformed into immortals by them." My thoughts were disturbed, and I responded with a diffuse voice: "It seems to be." In the confusion, what I suddenly thought of was: Was the process of the old Twelve Heavenly Officials becoming immortals also written in that record? I thought of this, but didn't express it, because Bai Su was very dissatisfied with Tie Tianyin, if I said it, wouldn't it add fuel to the flames──but it didn't take long for me to know that it would be the same whether I said it or not, what I thought of, Bai Su Is there anything unexpected?

Seeing our solemn expressions, Lansi wanted to ask but dared not.Bai Su suddenly changed the subject: "Did you find your father?" Lansi looked sad, and shook her head: "Brother Meng is already in Miaojiang, spread the news widely, but no one found him——I really want to find him, because I know he is living in extreme pain among." When Lan Si said this, she meant to comfort Bai Su, because although Bai Su's mother was also missing, if she "became a fairy", there would be no pain. Painful torment is different. Wen Baoyu said with a smile: "It was originally a happy island, why all of a sudden, everyone sighed and became frowning?"

Lansi pointed at him: "Invite your father Lingtang back again, and let him frown alone." Wen Baoyu shook his hands wildly: "Is this a joke?" I stretched out again. Spending my days in the water on a small and beautiful island is certainly not suitable for me.I am a person who needs to be constantly on the move, and new things are constantly happening around me.Occasionally, a day or two, as a rest in life, can naturally be adjusted, but if life is so static, life is probably over. I asked Wen Baoyu: "We will leave tomorrow, and we will take Hong Ling away, how is your itinerary?"

Wen Baoyu stuck out his tongue: "Borrowing Boss Tao's name, we want to stay for a few more days, and then Lansi will go back to Lanjiadong. Originally, she wanted to meet Ma Xian, but it's a pity that the King of Witches went on an expedition to the universe gone." Both Wen Baoyu and Lansi showed extremely yearning expressions at this moment—they were young, so they naturally had extraordinary ambitions.I smiled wryly, and what I thought in my heart was that it would be great to be able to find out as much as possible about the things on Earth. Wen Baoyu said again: "That Aunt Xiuzhen seems to have something on her mind, didn't she tell you?"

Bai Su said: "No, and I didn't ask." Wen Baoyu said loudly: "I didn't ask, she is so open-minded, if she could tell others, she would definitely tell." I am very glad that Wen Baoyu can think so. Wen Baoyu scratched his head: "There is another problem. Mom met Lansi, as if meeting honey. She taught me a lot of things, saying that it is a long night with many dreams. Why don't you marry her quickly?" I came to be the daughter-in-law of the Wen family, so that she would not be worried. What do you think I should do?" I didn't think about it for half a second: "Tell Ling Tang that even if you get married, if you change your mind, you will still get divorced."

Wen Baoyu thought about it for a while, and then said: "It has to be like this." That night, Bai Su and I stayed in the hammock with Hong Ling.Early the next morning, she was awakened by Hong Ling's long howling.Hong Ling opened her arms, facing the sea, the whistle was clear and loud enough to spread throughout the island. Bai Su and I came to her side, as soon as Bai Su waited for her to stop, he said: "Auntie Xiuzhen has to leave beforehand." Hong Ling was startled, and then said, "I can dive by myself." I said seriously: "We have something to do, we have to leave too, you want to go with us──"

When Hong Ling heard this, her expression was dark. I went on to say: "Go to Miaojiang, there is something important for you to do." One advantage of Hong Ling is that she can quickly forget the unhappiness and disappointment of losing something, and quickly put herself into a new situation and joy. At this time, she was even more happy when she heard that there was something important to do. She clapped her hands and said, "Okay, I can go back to Miaojiang again. What can I do?" Bai Su and I looked at each other, Bai Su nodded, and I said: "As soon as we arrive, you will find those two silver apes."

It is said that among the creatures on earth, only human beings can express their inner feelings with facial muscles.Call it an "expression".If this statement is true, then I dare say that Hong Ling is the person who is the least able to hide his expression among human beings. She laughed out loud when she was happy in her heart, and immediately showed it on her face when she was unhappy. At this moment, as soon as she heard what I said, she straightened her face immediately, and even took three steps back, staring at me with wide eyes. I shook my hand at her first, and then pointed to my head: "I'm looking for those two silver apes, not to break their heads—you should know by now that it's called 'surgery', but to want the glowing Clothes, that may be something left by the 'fairy'."

I couldn't explain it in detail, but Hong Ling's feelings for the two silver apes are really extraordinary, she still didn't believe it, and looked at Bai Su again.Bai Su nodded: "Yes, with that luminous dress, it is possible to meet the gods... and know the whereabouts of my mother. You have a mother, and I have a mother." Hong Ling nodded her head: "Everyone has a mother." Thinking of seeing the silver ape again soon, she was already happy, and under the rising sun, she was extremely happy again. Hong Ling's whistling sound woke up Wen Baoyu and Lan Si, and they walked towards the rising sun.

I asked Lansi about the Twelve Heavenly Officials, but she didn't know much, so I decided to go to Lanjiadong and ask the Twelve Heavenly Officials directly. On the same day, we left together with Tao Qiquan. Tao Qiquan was going to New York. I discussed it with Bai Su. Anyway, there is no rush in a day or two. Let Hong Ling see the world's largest city. So, we took Hong Ling and played in New York for three days. In the evening, we asked Hong Ling about her impressions. The answer was unexpected. She didn’t think it was special. She said: “It’s all the same, just like the forest.

Both Bai Su and I laughed, knowing that we don't need to take her to see other big cities in the future, in her opinion, they are all the same. Go home first, and then contact Chen Er——When Lansi left, she drove the helicopter and stopped at the airport, so it was convenient for us to go to Lanjiadong. Everything went well. When the helicopter hovered over Lanjiadong, many people could be seen jumping below with their hands raised. They might think that Lansi had returned. When they landed, a large group of people came up and saw us. Although they were surprised, they were still welcome. Hong Ling jumped down and hugged several girls. I was impatient, and I didn't see the twelve heavenly officials, so I asked, "Where are the heavenly officials?" The master of the cave looked solemn, and pointed to the distance: "In two days, it will be the day when the old twelve heavenly officials ascend to heaven, and they have all gone to the top of the mountain." If you follow where he is pointing, you will see mountains overlapping one another, and I don't know which one he is pointing at. I still wanted to ask this question, but was blocked by Bai Su. I also felt amused by my impatience. The Miao people have lived a leisurely life here for generations, so they naturally do things slowly, so there is no such thing as urgent. So, there was a grand welcome with singing, dancing, good wine and good meat. Hong Ling got her place, and under the eyes of everyone, she drank a bamboo tube of wine and announced loudly: "All other wines are not as good as the wine here." drink." The owner of the cave smiled: "Okay, I will send you twenty tubes." Hong Ling Dale, wiping the wine from the corner of her mouth, looked at Bai Su and me, fearing that Bai Su would not agree, I hurriedly nodded her head first, and then secretly glanced at Bai Su, seeing that she and I nodded almost at the same time. Also great joy. I am happy because Hong Ling actually knew to ask for our consent before accepting the gift—I believe Bai Su is also happy for this, which is a natural reaction of normal parents all over the world.As for parents with abnormal mentality, it cannot be judged by common sense. The wine was hot, so I mentioned it to the owner of the cave: "Do you still remember the time when the old twelve heavenly officials entered Lanjiadong?" Dongzhu asked, he stayed for a while, and then nodded: "Remember, at that time, I was ready to go hunting." Males are fourteen years old and can go hunting. The owner of the cave at that time was already a young man, so of course he has memories.But his demeanor indicated that he was not very willing to bring up the matter of the Twelve Heavenly Officials. When I asked some more questions, he not only hesitated a bit, but also seemed restless. Bai Su signaled that I don't need to ask any more questions, and I asked another question: "Which mountain is it? We have something urgent to discuss with the Twelve Heavenly Officials, and we want to go to them." The owner of the cave shook his hands repeatedly: "The Twelve Heavenly Officials don't allow people to approach the mountain...you...even if you want to go, you will have to walk for several days, why don't you wait for them to come back." I insisted: "We can fly and be there soon." Dongzhu's expression was even more hesitant: "It's not good...they are waiting for the gods to appear...your plane flew over, if it collides with the gods, then...it's not very good." Dongzhu's concerns, although ridiculous, but in terms of his level of knowledge, he had no choice but to think so. I asked again: "The old Twelve Heavenly Officials saw immortals back then, and they later ascended to heaven and became immortals. Tell me about it." The cave master sighed, drank a few sips of wine, and then said: "I don't know very much about the Tianguan, even if I know, I can't talk nonsense, they will be back in a few days." He spoke so clearly that I naturally couldn't ask any more questions. The position of the Twelve Heavenly Officials in the Miaodong is very special, and they are also associated with magic, gods and other mysterious phenomena, so people respect ghosts and gods and stay away from them, so they dare not talk about them lightly. up.I didn't say anything more, drank three glasses of wine with Dongzhu, and never mentioned the matter of the Twelve Heavenly Officials. That night, I discussed with Bai Su, and I said: "Do you think Dongzhu knows but doesn't say anything, or does he not know anything?" Bai Su took a breath: "He doesn't know that the Tianguan Gate is always a body of twelve people, and the contact with other people retains its mystery." I thought for a while: "It's very good for us." That's it." Bai Su agreed: "Even gave us that record." The discussion was futile, Hong Ling had already fallen asleep, and everything was quiet. I looked in the direction the cave master had pointed, hoping to find some firelight, so I could know which mountain the Twelve Heavenly Officials were waiting for the gods. But looking out, it was just pitch black, and the whole wilderness was in a deep sleep, so mysterious that it made one's heart palpitate. We had nothing to say all night, and the next morning, Hong Ling led us to set off. Along the way, she kept making various noises, sometimes screaming, sometimes roaring, sometimes short, sometimes long, which attracted at least a hundred people. There are various monkeys, but the two silver apes are missing. When we set off, we had an "expedition" plan, so we didn't use the helicopter.Our destination is the cave where many bones of the Fire Lady are stored, because the silver ape used to haunt there.It is estimated that the journey will take about three or four days, but in the end, it took a full six days—the reason is that the three of us regarded this trip as a family excursion. In the mountains and jungles of Miaojiang, although there are many dangers, but with Hong Ling, any danger can be saved.Of course, Bai Su and I are not idle people, it really is a lot of fun, the process of it.If it is written in detail, it can be written into a book, and that book can be the natural history of Miao Jiang. During those seven days, I had a lot of experience, but I also experienced a lot of "first time to solve the problem", such as gathering ants the size of a finger into a pile, burning them half-burnt and chewing them. The second half is crispy and delicious, but the first half is sour and astringent, making it hard to eat.I didn't believe what Hong Ling said, I took a bite, couldn't spit it out, and laughed until Hong Ling fell down. One evening, I passed a rotten mud pond. If the surface of this rotten mud pond is covered with aquatic plants, duckweed and other plants, it is a dangerous animal trap. Even if it is a bird, if you accidentally step on it, you will be killed. It must sink deeper and deeper until it is swallowed by the mire. This rotten mud pond is about 20 meters square, but not a single blade of grass grows there. The mud glows purple in the afterglow of the setting sun, which looks extremely strange. Although such a swamp is rare, it is by no means a rare sight, but when Hong Ling saw it, she was overjoyed.She jumped around the pond for a while, and let out a cry that sounded meaningless to us.The group of monkeys following us also seemed inexplicably excited, jumping high and chirping. Hong Ling first ran around the mud pond, and Bai Su and I called "be careful" at least ten times, and at the same time, I don't know why she is so interested in this mud pond. We asked her, and she said, "If you're lucky, you'll find out after a while. If you're not lucky, you won't understand even if you tell me." It was so irritating and funny that she could play tricks, so we stopped asking and saw what she was up to. I saw him calling out to the group of monkeys. Two apes seemed to be running away, and the rest of the monkeys scattered, looking for stones everywhere, some big and some small, the smallest one was as big as a fist, and the big one Two monkeys were asked to move together, and the stones were moved and placed by the pond. I couldn't help asking Bai Su: "Hey, what is our baby girl doing?" Bai Su was not impatient at all: "Didn't you listen to what she said? If you're lucky, you'll understand after reading it." I glared at Bai Su, picked a tree stump by the pond, sat down, and Bai Su was walking around. This time I came out, because I had already planned for a long-distance trip, so I was well prepared, Hong Ling was very strong, and I brought three tubes of wine in thick bamboo tubes, and I took one tube to drink slowly. At that time, the setting sun was fiery red, and seeing that it was getting dark, I sighed: "The whole family is at the edge of the swamp, and we haven't prepared dinner tonight." Bai Su listened and smiled: "In my opinion, our precious daughter is trying to catch something alive in the mud for dinner." I was taken aback: "What delicious food can be found in the rotten mud pond." Bai Su said: "I don't know, but just seeing her work so hard and focus on one thing is also a pleasure." Bai Su's words touched my heart, if Hong Ling was very busy, she would make a gesture to us from time to time, and after a while, she would quickly come to us and stop for a while, it was very refreshing. After a while, there were dozens of stones by the pond.The two old monkeys who had left before also turned around and caught a fawn each, and the fawn was still barking. Both Bai Su and I were taken aback, not knowing what Hong Ling wanted to do.I took a sip of the wine and said loudly, "Let's roast these two deer and eat them." Hong Ling replied by the pond: "No, there will be better ones later." Upon hearing Hong Ling's answer, I couldn't help but admire Bai Suda, she already knew Hong Ling's purpose. I saw that Hong Ling stretched out her hand and picked up a fawn, twisted her hands, and broke the deer's neck, and sprinkled all the deer's blood on the rocks, her technique was extremely neat and neat.The expression is calm -- the people from the Society for the Protection of Animals have seen her, and at least they will put her in shackles for public display for three days. The blood of two deer was released, and dozens of stones were already stained with blood. She broke off a branch, took out a knife, and cut one end of the branch until it failed, turning it into a weapon. Hong Ling has always been very keen on all kinds of sharp knives, she has collected quite a few, and always has a few by her side. She finished sharpening the stick, tried the tip, and looked dissatisfied. (I wrote this passage in detail because the passage was very interesting and the result was unexpected.) Seeing this situation, Bai Su reminded her: "Why don't you tie the knife to the branch?" Hong Ling thought for a while with her head sideways, and adopted Bai Su's suggestion. After she tied up the knife, she looked very satisfied, and ran over quickly, hugged Bai Su tightly, and then returned to the pond. At this time, the sky was already dark, but luckily it was the color of the moon, which was particularly bright in this barren mountain (due to the clean air). Hong Ling started to move. She commanded the group of monkeys to throw the stones stained with deer blood (dried) one by one into the mud. After throwing seven or eight stones, we noticed that the big stones were thrown first, and then the small ones. I discussed with Bai Su, and I said: "What are you doing throwing the stone down? Could it be that the living thing below eats the stone?" Bai Su said: "I think it's the blood on the stone, the living creatures below are probably addicted to deer blood, and will lick the blood off the stone." I nodded: "Yes, throw the big one first, sink it deep, and then throw the small one, you can gradually attract the living things at the bottom of the pond to float up, and then—" When I said this, I made a gesture of stabbing forward with the stick——At this moment, Hong Ling was holding on to the branch with the knife tied on it, concentrating on it by the pond. Moreover, the surface of the mud pond was originally very calm. At this time, as the stones were thrown down and the mud splashed, the mud on the surface of the pond undulated, and there was a lot of undercurrents. It can be seen that the living creature below is not small. Bai Su suddenly became nervous: "I don't know what kind of monster it is, is it dangerous?" I laughed and said, "If you want to catch it and eat it, are you still afraid of it?" Bai Su shook his head: "Otherwise, tigers and crocodiles have all been caught and eaten. They are all cannibals." I spread my hands: "Look at this battle, it's more dangerous to disturb her." At this time, the stones were almost thrown away, but the undercurrents in the mud became even more heaving, and Hong Ling's expression became more tense. When the last stone was thrown down, suddenly a strange head popped up from the mud, at that moment Hong Ling also yelled, aimed at the strange head, and stabbed straight down, her attack was about to die. After stabbing, he immediately picked it up, and with a "huh", he picked out a large group of things from the mud. The thing was in a parabola, falling behind her, and fell to the ground not far from us. We haven't seen what it is yet, but we can only see that it is about the size of an adult. As soon as the thing hit the ground, it twisted its body and wanted to rush back to the mud pond very quickly.But Hong Ling yelled, seventeen or eighteen monkeys rushed up together, pressed on top of the thing, preventing it from escaping. Hong Ling cheered loudly, amidst Hong Ling's cheers, suddenly there was the sound of a baby crying one after another, "Wow", "Wow", clear and clear.I was taken aback for a moment, and the first thing I thought of was, could it be that another woman was giving birth nearby, just like when Brother Meng discovered Second Miss Chen. That thought lasted at most half a second, and I immediately understood what was going on.And Bai Su obviously understood what was going on half a second earlier than me, because she had already called out: "Put it back." As soon as Bai Su called out, Hong Ling immediately looked at us with a puzzled expression.I was afraid that she would stab it again, so I also yelled, "Put it back." Hong Ling's expression was even more puzzled, but she still called out.As soon as she cried, the monkeys that had piled up in a pile suddenly dispersed. Under the moonlight, we also saw clearly the thing that Hong Ling picked up from the mud—it was it, making a cry like a baby. It was a giant salamander—an extremely rare giant salamander. It is one and a half meters long. This kind of giant salamander, Manhuang Daze, is its original place. It is unexpected that there is such a big one. At this time, it twisted its body and quickly slid towards the mud pond. Along the way, it still uttered "woowa", "wuwa", with its head held up, and its appearance was terrifying, which was in no way commensurate with the sound it made. In a blink of an eye, there was a "plop" and fell into the mud. Hong Ling listened to our words, but her expression was puzzled, and she looked at us.I spoke first: "This thing is called salamander, and it is a rare animal. We should not kill rare animals, but protect them." Hong Ling obviously didn't understand: "It's rare just because it's rare, that meat is extremely delicious." Bai Su said: "If there are few, we must protect them. We can roast deer to eat. There are too many deer to eat." Hong Ling still didn't understand: "There are too many people, they don't need to be protected, they can be killed and eaten." It seems that it is really not easy for her to understand why rare creatures should be protected. That night, I ate a roast deer and explained it to her for a long time. Before going to sleep, she still smacked her mouth: "You guys haven't eaten it, so you will put him back." Both Bai Su and I laughed, but halfway through the laugh, I suddenly remembered that the process of getting that giant salamander out of the mud pond was not simple, it was very complicated, how did Hong Ling learn it?
