Chapter 202: Swallow's Gourd Seeds
After compiling the story of Nanacheng and Nan into a fairy tale, Nebula and Ryan wait for Sinas at the agreed place while eating a tender pork skewer and a delicious buckwheat konjac.
Pork skewers and buckwheat konjac are a thank you gift from Qicheng and Qinan to thank Nebula and Ryan, and if they still want to eat it next time, they can make it for Nebula and them as long as they bring them rice sticks and tiger footprints.
While waiting for Shinas, Nebula and Ryan felt as if something was wrong, but they couldn't remember anything.
After a while, Shinas returned, she seemed to be holding a thin yellow cover of fairy tale books in her hand, Shinas was very surprised to walk up to Nebula and Ryan, and said to them: "I didn't expect you to collect two fairy tale books so quickly, because I am a teacher, I can communicate with the villagers so well and obtain the material for fairy tales." ”
In fact, it is naturally not as simple as Sinas said, in order to understand the story material of Xiao Xing Hongdou, she went to Granny Lian to buy an urn for her, and the urn is generally not sold.
Fortunately, when Shinas was in the underwater world, he had met Taigong, and he was entrusted by Taigong to bring fresh shrimp meat to Granny Lian, so Granny Lian made an exception and sold an urn to Henas at a preferential price of 5,000 gold coins.
Then, it was for Xiao Xing to collect mugwort on the Wushan Mountain and find the lost hoe on the ghost ridge, and Shinas collected the complete fairy tale material.
Although the trouble is a little troublesome, but
The grain tea is quite delicious, Xinas playfully siped the tea stains on the corner of his mouth and thought secretly.
After meeting Shinas, Nebula and Ryan found out that something was wrong, two copies!! The fairy tales that the two of them should collect are two!!
Damn, how could you be so stupid!? Holding a compiled book of fairy tales and waiting for the Hiss teacher to eat so complacently? Isn't it only half done?
Faced with Shinas's question, Nebula and Ryan lowered their heads and blushed, one scratched their heads stupidly, and the other played with the staff in their hands without saying a word.
Shinas had also come over, and glancing at the thin storybook they had laid out behind her, she understood in an instant.
These two imps should have only collected one fairy tale material, and they are shy here!
It's fun to watch the two little Shota twist and look at them, but if you don't finish the task as soon as possible, the sun will set. Although it is not impossible to spend the night in this small mountain village, compared to the hard wooden plank bed, Shinas still finds the hotel's large soft bed suitable for him.
"I was also asking you to help find the benefactor of the swallow, I first accepted the commission of the injured swallow near the Wushan Pass, but then I was busy helping Xiaoxing, and the swallow asked me to give the gourd seeds to the benefactor who helped it bandage its wounds, but it seems that it can't remember the name of the benefactor, what kind of husband is called, anyway, it is one of the Xingfu or Lefu in the fairy tale village." Xinas said to Nebula and Ryan flatly.
"I'm going to find out what Koo is!"
"I'll go to Lefu's house and investigate!"
After Xingyun and Ryan finished speaking, they ran west and east one by one, it seems that they want to go to Qicheng and Qinan to inquire about Xingfu and Lefu.
Actually threw aside their own self as the recipient of the task, and they rushed to do the task!?
The self-esteem of these two children is quite high!
Shinas sat quietly under the tree, opened the fairy tale written by Nebula and Ryan, and read it carefully
★?????????????????? ★
After asking Qicheng about Xingfu's location, Xingyun asked Qicheng how Xingfu usually behaved, this is a matter related to thanksgiving gifts, if the thanksgiving gift is sent to the wrong person, wouldn't it be ridiculous?
Qicheng stroked his mustache with his fingers, and after thinking for a long time, he said to Xingyun: "Xingfu lives on the hillside above my house, and he is very poor and often does not have enough to eat. You're looking for the swallow's benefactor or something, I'm afraid you're looking for the wrong person!? In the end, Qicheng asked Nebula rhetorically, and Nebula just squeaked at Qicheng and then circled back to the foot of the hill and rushed to Xingfu's house.
Although Nanacheng thinks that the benefactor of the swallow may not be Xingfu, he always has to confirm it with his own eyes, and there is a famous saying in the Earth Defense Headquarters - seeing is believing!
Similarly, Ryan asks Nan where Lefu is and how he behaves.
Qi Nan waved his hand and replied to Ryan: "Don't go to him, although he is very rich, he is very stingy, and it doesn't seem like he did it when you think about saving the injured swallow." Well~~~? Do you have to know where he is? Alas, you just ran for nothing, his house is the brick house near my house, do you see? It's the blue brick house. ”
Even though Nan didn't think that Lefu was the benefactor of the Swallow, Ryan still decided to take a look, isn't there a famous saying circulating in the Earth Defense Headquarters? To see is to believe!
Nebula knocked on the door, and seeing that no one responded, he stepped directly into Xingfu's house.
It's not that Nebula doesn't know how to be polite, but Xingfu's house is too dilapidated, the roof has long been broken with a big hole, even the walls of the house have many cracks, and even the gate has been decayed and broken in half, Nebula is actually just a symbolic knock on the door.
"Who are you? What's the matter with me? A middle-aged man with a white turban and square face and small eyes walked out of the house slowly with a bamboo basket, as if he was going out to dry something.
Well!? This is dried bamboo shoots, what is he doing with this kind of thing?
After hearing the rumbling sound of the middle-aged man's stomach, Xingyun realized that his dinner was actually such a thing, no wonder he always couldn't eat enough.
Xingyun thought he was very witty and asked the middle-aged man, "Are you Xingfu?" It was Swallow who asked me to come to you. ”
Xingfu thought for a while, and suddenly said to Xingyun: "Yes, I am Xingfu. Are you talking about the swallow with a wounded wing? Is its injury healed now? ”
Bingo!
It seems that the benefactor who bandaged the swallow's wound was Xingo!
Nebula told Xingfu what he had heard from Shinas, and when Xingfu learned about Swallow's retribution, he asked Nebula to plant the gourd seed and bring him the contents of the gourd.
Xingfu said that the seeds of this gourd are not ordinary seeds, it only takes a while to germinate and mature, and it is best to plant them on the roof, so that the more sunlight they will be exposed to, and the faster the seeds will mature.
Nebula immediately rushed out of Xingfu's house to find Shinas and ask for the gourd's seeds.
On the other hand, Ryan didn't go as smoothly as Nebula. It may be that Lefu is not at home, and Ryan knocked on the door for a long time but no one came to open it.
Just when Ryan felt a little difficult, a middle-aged man with a broom head and a slightly chubby head was very angry and asked Ryan in front of the door, "Who are you?" What do you want to do at the door of my house? Hum! What do you want to get from me? I tell you plainly, I won't give you poor people a penny. ”
After the middle-aged man said these words, he opened the door of the house and prepared to go in directly, although Ryan's favorability towards the middle-aged man was already negative, but he still held back his anger and asked the middle-aged man gently, "Are you Lefu?" It was Swallow who asked me to come to you. ”
Ryan thinks he is very skillful in asking, and if he tells him that the swallow is here to repay the favor, then whether he is the benefactor of the swallow or not, in order to get the swallow's gift, he will admit it.
If he said something like this, if he didn't know the swallow, he would just shake his head and say that he didn't know, and if he knew about the swallow, then he must be the benefactor of the swallow.
Lefu looked at Ryan very vigilantly, and after seeing the magic robe that Ryan was wearing, Lefu was so frightened that he stammered to Ryan: "Oh~~~ You mean the swallow with injured wings?" That's really."
Before Lefu could finish speaking, Ryan turned and ran towards the tree where Shinas was.
Lef! It must be Lefu!
It must be Lefu who bandages the wounds of the swallows! Otherwise, he would never have been able to name the part of the swallow's injury.
However, Ryan may not have imagined that the person who knew the part of the swallow's injury was not only the rescuer, but also the murderer who harmed the swallow's injury.
"This magician is strange, isn't he here to avenge me for the wounded swallow?" Lefu looked at Ryan's departing back in confusion and muttered to himself.
"Hiss Mentor, I see! Xingfu is the benefactor of the swallow, let's hurry up and give the gourd seeds to Xingfu! Nebula teleported to the tree where Shinas was, and said to Shinas hurriedly.
As she reached the crucial point of reading the book, she didn't even turn her head, just casually pointed to the pale yellow gourd seed next to her.
Nebula immediately teleported to Xingo's house with the gourd seed, because he was also looking forward to what the gourd seed would grow on Xingfu's roof.
Under the house, the nebula teleported directly upwards to the roof, and almost stepped on the big hole in the roof of the house, but fortunately there was no danger.
Placing the seeds and a handful of dirt on the other side of the roof in a relatively intact place, the seeds of the gourd grew rapidly like balloons in ten seconds, turning into a huge gourd that was a man tall.
Nebula smashed the gourd with a few magic double-clicks, and the contents slid down the slope of the roof towards Xingfu's house.
Hey!? This is a treasure chest, and it is actually full of gold and silver treasures!
What the hell is going on with this gourd seed?
(This is from yesterday, and there is another chapter today.) In the future, if there is no change on the same day, two changes will be made up the next day, and at least one change a day will be maintained)
