【099】The daughter of the Dragon King
On the small table are a plate of braised pig ears, a plate of peanuts, a plate of clear water tofu, a bowl of yam stewed chicken, and the small shop's own rice wine......
Mo Yan took a sip of rice wine and praised it: "Uncle, your wine is really good." ”
The old man smiled and said, "That's the wine made from mountain spring water, can it taste bad?" ”
Mo Yan used the excuse of collecting materials and invited the old man to the table, intending to find out the details of this Hulu Mountain Great Immortal.
The old man is a typical mountain man, with a hearty and simple personality, and at the same time quite talkative, and has a natural good impression of cultural people. He heard Mo Yan claim to be a writer, so he put down his work and accompanied Mo Yan to drink and chat. also asked vigorously, would he be written into the story by Mo Yan......
His question made Mo Yan, an impostor, a little embarrassed, and immediately changed the topic slightly, admiring this home-brewed rice wine.
However, the taste of this rice wine is indeed good, compared to the craftsmanship of the fourth master of Mojia Village, it is definitely not bad.
"Uncle, you just said that the great immortal in this mountain will show the way to the lost baby, right?"
"This was all a few years ago, and our forest park hadn't been established yet...... At that time, a few babies made an appointment to go into the mountains to catch eagles together, but they went deeper and deeper, and at night, they couldn't find their way back. Later, our great immortal manifested his spirit, turned into a ball of white light, and led a few babies out of the mountain. Hey, it was a few decades ago, it was a baby at the time, and now it's a bunch of old men, and one left the year before last. ”
Mo Yan asked again: "Uncle, does this great immortal often manifest his spirits?" ”
The old man said: "That's not it, it's also an immortal, how can it appear from time to time?" Not to mention that I haven't seen it for many years, let's just say that before, there were only seven or eight people in our village who had seen Daxian in total. ”
Mo Yan nodded, and asked again, "Uncle, where does this great immortal usually appear?" ”
The old man said: "Do you know the eagle's beak ditch?" There is a waterhole for ten miles from the back mountain, and the ravine directly east of the waterhole is it...... In the future, do you want to go into the mountains to find immortals? Haha, let me tell you, this great immortal is not something you can find if you want to, it depends on whether you have this opportunity. The people in our area are basically the immortals they saw near the eagle's beak ditch, and some people wanted to climb a fairy edge, but as a result, they stayed there for several days, and they didn't even see a shadow. ”
Olecranon groove?
Mo Yan immediately called up the topographic map of Hulu Mountain in his mind and searched for it according to the direction the old man said......
He quickly found the place that the old man had said, but the map was a satellite map, tangible but nameless, and it was not certain that it was the eagle's beak ditch for the time being. But a little to the right nearby, there is a blue point of light, which coincides with the waterhole that the old man said.
"Uncle, how many pools are there in this gourd mountain?"
"There is no shortage of water in our mountains, but there is just such a waterhole, and we mountain people call it Fairy Pond......"
"Are there fish in the pool?" At this time, the old man's daughter-in-law happened to serve a bowl of stewed fish, and Mo Yan asked casually.
But the old man said, "You have asked the point...... There are fish in the creek of our gourd mountain, but there are no fish in this fairy pool, don't you say strange? Also, this pool of water is not cold, and no one dares to go in and take a bath in the summer. In the early years, I had an uncle who went to the pond once, and guess what? I came back and lay down for three months! ”
Hearing this, Mo Yan's heart moved and asked, "Is the pool deep?" ”
"Deep!" The old man said: "There is no bottom...... Someone once tied a stone with a rope and lowered it, and the rope for nearly 100 meters did not go to the end, do you say it is deep? It's really strange to say, how high is our gourd mountain, a waterhole halfway up the mountain, why is it so deep? Later, I heard the old people say that the pond leads to the Dragon Palace and is a bottomless pool. He also said that the great immortal was the daughter of the Dragon King, and because she made a mistake, she was relegated to our gourd mountain to think about it for three hundred years. That waterhole is her way home, and when the time comes, Daxian will recover the dragon body and follow this bottomless pool back to the Dragon Palace......"
Mo Yan vaguely felt at this time that this fairy pool was most likely the place he was looking for.
However, in places where there is a lot of cloudy air, especially where there is water, even in summer, the water temperature will be extremely low. This low temperature is not entirely a physical phenomenon, but more due to the fact that the yin qi is too strong, but lingering. If it is as expected, the 'uncle' who went to the pool to take a bath and finally lay in bed for three months is not entirely due to the cold, but half of the reason is that the yin qi enters the body and lingers for a long time.
After collecting this information, Mo Yan was satisfied.
This dinner lasted about an hour and a half, and by the time Mo Yan said goodbye, it was already completely dark.
The village where the old man lives is at the foot of the mountain, a few miles away from Courtyard 36.
Mo Yan walked out of the mountain slowly, walked towards No. 36 Courtyard, and suddenly thought that after tonight, he would have to carry his bag and get out of No. 36 tomorrow, and his heart was somewhat depressed.
At this time, two people walked briskly past him, and looking at their direction, they should have just come out of the gourd mountain.
Mo Yan didn't care at first, but after seeing the backs of the two people, he was slightly stunned.
"Aren't these two people the followers of Mr. Liu?"
Mo Yan was a little curious in his heart, but he didn't pay too much attention to it, this season was a good season for outing, and it was not strange for these two people to go into the mountains to play.
After returning to the No. 36 courtyard, because it was the last night here, Mo Yan was not in the mood to do his homework, so after packing up his luggage, he took a shower and went to bed and fell asleep.
There was nothing to say that night.
When he got up the next day, he was about to call Su Yu and ask her if she had arranged a rental for him, but as soon as he got the mobile phone, Su Yu had already called.
"Boss, are you up?"
Mo Yan said: "I just got up, and I was about to call you......"
Su Yu smiled: "I'm just outside the door, I bought breakfast for you." ”
Mo Yan was stunned and said, "Miss Su, you are my assistant, but you are not a personal female secretary, so you don't need to help me buy breakfast." ”
Su Yu smiled and said, "Boss, if you don't mind, please open the door quickly." This fillet porridge should be drunk while it is hot......"
Mo Yan smiled bitterly and shook his head, what is going on...... I just wanted to find an assistant who could help me with my chores, not a nanny and secretary who bought me breakfast every day. If I knew this, I should have asked Zhou Xianyu to borrow a male assistant......
Thinking of this, his heart jumped, Su Yu lives nearby, and the house she found for me ...... It won't be connected to her residence, will it?
Mo Yan is not a fake Taoism, living with beauty is naturally a pleasing thing, and there is no reason to shirk and pretentious.
But the crux of the matter is that he has a lot of secrets that no one else can know......
"Probably not, right?"
He shook his head and went downstairs to open the door for Su Yu.
As soon as the door opened, I saw Su Yu standing there vividly, carrying a paper bag containing breakfast in his hand, smiling and saying good morning to him.
Today's Su Yu is exceptionally beautiful, especially her eyes, her eyes are shining, with a smile, as if she has encountered something happy.
Mo Yan smiled: "It's really bothering you......"
Su Yu smiled: "Boss, this is my business." ”
Mo Yan let Su Yu in the door and said, "Have you eaten?" ”
Su Yu said: "I didn't eat it...... I just bought the porridge, and I was afraid of the cold, so I was in a hurry to send it over. ”
She bought two breakfasts, and having breakfast with Mo Yan was originally planned by her, and the so-called fear of cold porridge was just an excuse.
Mo Yan is such a shrewd person, he naturally has long seen through Su Yu's little trick, he couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, and said secretly: "Most of my assistant young lady sees me as a rich person like Zhou Xianyu." Tsk, this eldest sister, I'm just a poor bastard......"
He thinks he is poor, but at this time, Su Yu is not just for money and power, after just two meetings, she not only has a good impression of her new boss, but also is quite curious......
Just like Mai Sui said, a man is like a book, a handsome face and a full money bag are at most the introduction on the cover, the quality of the book, you have to read it page by page, in order to taste the good and bad, taste the taste you have never tasted.
Women are like water, men are like books, for Su Yu, Mo Yan at this time is a rather mysterious book, and after inadvertently taking a look, he can't stop......
"Let's eat together......"
Mo Yan took the paper bag containing the breakfast and said to Su Yu.
Su Yu naturally didn't push back, smiled, and said, "I'll go to the kitchen to get the tableware." ”
She took the tableware, poured the porridge into the bowl, handed it to Mo Yan and said, "Boss, drink it while it's hot." ”
Mo Yan's meal was extremely uncomfortable, not because Su Yu was a beauty, but because this beauty was too thoughtful......
If someone comes in and sees this scene at this time, they will definitely mistake it for a couple of lovers or a couple.
Su Yu served Mo Yan carefully, holding buns for him for a while, and handing him napkins for a while, looking like a well-behaved little daughter-in-law.
After finally finishing breakfast, Mo Yan finally couldn't help it, and said with a wry smile: "Miss Su, you don't have to be like this...... Let me tell you this, I grew up in the countryside and am used to taking care of myself, so you don't have to do this in the future. ”
This sentence not only has the meaning of rejecting people thousands of miles away, but also points out my identity, I am a poor man from the countryside, eldest sister, you don't need to be so stubborn.
Su Yu tilted his head, thought for a while, and said with a smile: "Okay, boss, I understand." ”
Mo Yan didn't know if she really understood or pretended to understand, but this topic is not easy to talk about, otherwise she would be suspected of being sentimental.
"By the way, Miss Su, did you find a house for me?"
Su Yu took the document bag he brought and said, "I've found it, you can sign the lease agreement now." ”
After a slight pause, there was a hint of cunning in her eyes, and she said, "By the way, boss, you are absolutely satisfied with the house I helped you find." ”
Mo Yan smiled: "It's too early to say this, right?" ”
Su Yu smiled: "You know it if you see it......"
Mo Yan took the file bag and was about to open it, but he heard the doorbell ringing.
Su Yu said: "I'll open the door." ”
With that, she turned and walked out of the living room to open the door.
Mo Yan knew that most of the people who came were Luo Fatzi and Mr. Liu, who bought the house, but he was not in a hurry to read the lease agreement, and stood up and greeted him out of the living room.
Sure enough, it was Chief Luo and Mr. Liu who came.
When Luo Fatzi saw the door open, he smiled and said, "Mo Yan, I came today to be a villain, you ......"
Before he finished speaking, he saw that it was not Mo Yan standing in front of him, but a beautiful girl with a bright water, and the bold laughter immediately blocked his throat......
