Chapter 240: I Want to Cut Peach Blossoms in a Pot of Wine, Youth Tour (End of this Volume)(1/2)
As the saying goes, rely on the mountains to eat the mountains and rely on the water to eat the water.
Guo Dalu and Yu Lingling spent the night in the cave, so the breakfast problem was naturally solved in the mountains.
"Eat breakfast lighter, forget about wild game, let's find some fruits to eat."
Guo Dalu said, leading the way ahead and climbed the mountain opposite the cave along an oblique mountain path.
Yu Lingling followed closely and asked, "There are fruits on this mountain?"
"Didn't you smell the fragrance of wild fruits?" Guo Dalu asked.
Yu Lingling sniffed hard, but she didn't smell any fragrance. "Where does it smell?"
Guo Dalu: "I don't know, I didn't smell it either."
Yu Lingling: "..."
Guo Dalu speeded up his journey, and the steep slope seemed to have become flat in an instant.
After a while, the two climbed to the top of the mountain, but they didn't see the shadow of a fruit tree.
Yu Lingling was about to ask a question, but Guo Dalu pointed to the mountain surrounded by morning mist and said, "See? Frost and dew fruit, one of the fruits on the verge of extinction, has extremely high nutritional value. It is said that eating one can prolong life for one second."
Yu Lingling looked at the clouds in a daze, "Where, where?"
Guo Dalu smiled and blew a breath to the other side. A strong wind blew, blowing away the clouds and mist. A blue-black fruit tree emerged from the steep cliffs, and the red wild fruits on the trees were looming in Yu Lingling's sight.
Yu Lingling didn't have time to praise Guo Dalu's "hufeng" skills, and pointed at the fruit tree from afar and asked, "How to pick it?"
The peach wood sword had been sacrificing from the other side of Guo Dalu, and flew away with the sword with a "swoosh".
"Shopkeeper, be careful!" Yu Lingling Suzhi's shop owner was limited in flight. Seeing the considerable distance between the two mountains, he blurted out and reminded him.
However, Guo Dalu's operation this time was unexpectedly stable. Even when he picked the wild fruits and returned, he deliberately shook a "z-shaped" route.
Yu Lingling sighed in her heart: "The owner is really talented and has made rapid progress, and he feels like he is a powerful person in his practice."
Thinking of this, she was about to raise her thumbs up and give the owner a thumbs up, and then she heard the owner say, "I almost didn't control it just now, so I turned it down and was scared."
Yu Lingling (sweat): "..." Haha, it's not "z-shaped shaking" at all, but "z-shaped shaking out of control", what a no-no!
After eating the frost and dew fruit, the two left the forest.
"Shopkeeper, let's sell the remaining frost and dew fruit. I want to experience the mood of the small vendor." Yu Lingling suggested, "How about letting grassroots taste the fruit that is about to extinction?"
Guo Dalu naturally agreed, "The child can teach you."
To put it bluntly, the so-called cultivation state of mind means more experience and more insights. Yu Lingling is willing to take the initiative to be a small vendor, which means that her inspiration is in a booming period and a breakthrough is imminent.
After rushing for a long time, they finally arrived at a county town. The two set up "stalls" on the side of the road and placed the remaining frosted fruits, priced at 50 yuan per piece.
After a while, an aunt passed by and spent 100 yuan to buy two. Soon a couple bought two... In the evening, there were only three frost and dew fruit left.
Yu Lingling was satisfied and was about to close the stall. At this time, a young man came over and said, "It's dark, and you can't sell this fruit anymore. Otherwise, I'll give you 15 yuan and sell these three fruits to me."
Yu Lingling shook her head and refused, "50 per person, no more or less."
The young man smiled, "You bring this fruit back, it will definitely break down overnight. You can earn 15 more dollars by selling it to me. Why not?"
Yu Lingling was about to continue to refuse, Guo Dalu continued: "Brother, I see you have been waiting by your side for two or three hours, just to buy our 150 yuan worth of fruit?"
The young man smiled slightly, "I just like to do things that are mutually beneficial."
Guo Dalu nodded, "Since that's the case, why don't we come and make a bet. I can give you these three fruits for free, but you have to promise me a condition."
The young man was overjoyed and asked, "What are the conditions?"
"Within three days, you are not allowed to speak. In three days, I will go to you. If you do it, I will turn around and leave. If you don't do it, you will pay my fruits as the original price. Do you dare to gamble?"
When the young man heard this, he was happy: "It's just an easy thing to not speak for three days!" He nodded and agreed, "Do what he said!"
Guo Dalu really gave the three fruits to the young man.
The young man quietly took away three frost fruits, and Yu Lingling looked puzzled, "Why make this bet with him?"
Guo Dalu smiled and said, "I will see you in three days."
The young man was so happy that he cursed Guo Dalu and Yu Lingling hundreds of times in his heart. He made up his mind to keep silent for three days and then mocked them in person after winning the bet.
However, his behavior scared his parents. He thought he had mute disease and asked the doctor to come and saw him. The doctor could not see any reason. He said he had some strange disease and his parents were even more anxious.
Three days later, Guo Dalu visited on time, chatted with the young man's parents for a while, and then gave in to the young man: "You win, you can speak." After that, he turned around and left.
The young man was proud and explained the whole story to his parents as soon as possible. After hearing this, his parents were stunned: "The boy said he was a pedal doctor, specializing in treating mutes for 15 years. It only costs 1,500 yuan to cure one. We have paid for the money."
When the young man heard this, he hurriedly chased him out, but where could he find the boy?
"A lifelong greed will lead to a trap."
After leaving the county town, Yu Lingling was silent for a long time, finally came to a conclusion, and then asked Guo Dalu: "Shopkeeper, are you going to tell me this?"
...
After a few more days, the two passed by a big city in the north and happened to meet a rich family holding a wedding banquet.
In order to fill the scene, the family specially invited all the people passing by to the table for dinner, so Guo Dalu took Yu Lingling to have a free meal, and the latter was a little puzzled: "We don't lack this good wine and good food."
"It's not that you can eat good wine and good food, but that you can get rid of the world."
Just as they were having dinner, a scoundrel suddenly came to the door. The scoundrel said nothing and immediately shouted loudly, with all kinds of vulgar and ugly words that were full of indifference.
After a while, the owner of the family came out, a middle-aged man with a gentle temperament. The man smiled and asked the rogue: "Does there be any hatred between us?"
"There is no grudge! I just think your family is not happy! I just want to scold you! ***! Your whole family is a bastard! Why don't you accept it and beat your father and me!"
At this time, several young people were about to rush over to attack, but were sternly stopped by the middle-aged man.
"Since you have no grudges and no grudges, I can't answer when you scold me. Well... If you wait a while and scold me, you can sit down and have a meal, and then scold me when you have enough."
After saying that, the middle-aged man turned around and entered the house, leaving behind a confused scoundrel and a guest.
Then the scoundrel actually went to have a big meal, and then started to curse after eating.
The strange guests were a little angry at this time.
But this time, the middle-aged man did not show up again.
The rogue cursed for more than an hour and left satisfied.
"Why?" Yu Lingling was completely puzzled, "They could drive him away."
"I'll know tomorrow." Guo Dalu replied.
The two stayed in the big city all night, and the next morning they heard about the scoundrel hanged himself.
"Do you know why?" Guo Dalu asked.
Yu Lingling didn't answer, and thought hard.
After leaving the city, he suddenly realized: "The owner of the family had long seen that the scoundrel had ambitions to die. In order not to cause trouble, he endured it again and again?"
Guo Dalu said: "Everyone has a devil in his heart. When he is angry, the devil will appear, and troubles and even disasters will come. You are two people when you are angry and you are calm."
Yu Lingling fell into deep thought.
After walking for a long time, she suddenly became happy to her heart: "If you don't feel angry, everything will be fine."
...
It is already mid-March, and the peach blossoms in Taolin Village are blooming in sequence.
The old lady carried a bamboo basket and a sickle, and cut a whole basket of peach blossoms.
Every year when the peach blossoms are in full bloom, she will cut three pounds of peach blossoms from her peach forest, sprinkle one pound into the river, give one pound to passers-by, and keep one pound for wine.
When Guo Dalu and Yu Lingling passed by Taolin Village, they were fortunate to get a pound of peach blossoms.
"Thank you, the old man, I have always wanted to use peach blossoms to make wine. Now my wish can finally be fulfilled." Guo Dalu said sincerely.
The old lady waved her hand, "You're welcome. If you don't dislike me, I have a jar of peach blossom wine from 1982, which I can take out for you to taste."
The two were overjoyed, "It's better to obey your orders than respect."
When the old lady took out the peach blossom wine, Guo Dalu "goes ahead" and said, "Old man, it's a good idea to have wine but no story."
The old lady smiled and said, "I have wine and stories. Are you interested?"
"Yes!" Guo Dalu and Yu Lingling replied in unison.
"This story has been around for some years. From the beginning of the story to today, it has been 58 years, 1 month and 3 days..."
So, while pouring wine for the two, the old lady began to tell a love story that was old.
The story takes place in this Taolin Village and starts with a conversation.
58 years ago, a conversation between a young man and a woman in the peach forest.
"I give someone peach blossoms, and my hands will have fragrance."
"Leave peach blossoms and the fragrance is stronger."
"You are selfish."
"You are a fake and generous."
