Shao Xi didn't know if he was stimulated by Lao Wu. He tossed and turned like a child looking forward to the New Year that night and couldn't sleep well. All he could think about was the weapons and weapons Baili Yingxue left for Feng Yuyan. What exactly is swordsmanship?
According to what Old Wu said, those were the weapons and swordsmanship tailor-made for Baili Yingxue and Baili Ningshuang by the ancestor Tianqiong. Without asking, he knew that they must be shocking magical weapons and martial arts!
He stayed up until dawn full of random thoughts. As soon as some light came into the room outside the window, Shao Xi jumped out of bed.
After getting dressed and washing up, I ran to Lao Wu's bedroom.
The door was smashed with "dong dong dong", which made Old Wu chatter for a while. After Shao Xi's repeated urging, they finally packed up, and the two went to the backyard to take the horses out of the house.
The housekeeper Liu Fu saw that the two people were leaving early in the morning. He knew that there was something important, but he didn't dare to ask. He just asked if he would be back for dinner at noon.
Shao Xi waved his hand and said not to worry about them, it was not certain when they would come back! The two of them left the south gate of Daliang City again and headed south.
Back then, Jingci Temple was located twelve miles south of Daliang City. It was not far away, but if there were no horses, it would not be considered close at all.
The two of them walked all the way south. Although Shao Xi was a little impatient, Lao Wu was dragging his feet as if he hadn't woken up, walking slowly and unhurriedly.
Although Shao Xi was complaining in his heart, he was embarrassed to urge her again and again. After all, there was nothing else to do all day today, but no wonder he was not happy to pull Old Wu out of bed so early in the morning.
Fortunately, the two of them were not walking too slowly. They set off at Mao Shi, and as soon as they arrived at Chen Shi, they had already arrived at the foot of the hill where Jingci Temple was originally located.
Although the mountain is not big, it is not suitable for riding horses up the mountain, so Shao Xi and Lao Wu found a farmer at the foot of the mountain to store their horses here.
Shao Xi stuffed a bunch of copper coins into the farmer's owners and told them to take good care of the horses and thank them later when they came to pick up the horses.
The owner of the family seemed to be an honest and responsible farmer. Seeing that Shao Xi had given so much money, he was surprised and grateful, and repeatedly promised Shao Xi that he would take good care of their horses.
After the horses were arranged, Shao Xi and Lao Wu walked up the hill. This mountain was originally not big, so it didn't have a decent name. At that time, it was just because Jingci Temple was built on this mountain, so the local people casually named this mountain Nun Mountain.
Back then, there were a lot of pilgrims at Jingci Nunnery, and it was quite lively up and down the mountain. Now that Jingci Nunnery is gone, the surrounding area looks a little desolate.
Originally, long weeds grew in the gaps between the stone steps going up the mountain, but after ten years, everything has become full of confusion.
Shao Xi and Lao Wu walked all the way to the top of the mountain on the stone steps covered with weeds. Although the mountain was not high, the stone steps were still quite steep. When they reached the top of the mountain, they were already out of breath.
No matter how good your body skills are, you will still be tired when climbing a mountain that requires you to climb step by step. When they reached the top of the mountain, they still saw desolation in front of them. The only thing that looked different was the ruins in front of them.
Due to the fire ten years ago, it seems that there are ruins, broken bricks and tiles everywhere, and there is no decent frame, only a low broken wall.
However, after getting closer, you can still see the general layout of the house in Jingci'an. You can still distinguish where is the main hall, where is the back hall, where are the bedrooms, and where is the kitchen.
The two of them went straight to the backyard as Pu Jing said. When they arrived in the backyard, the two of them were a little dumbfounded.
What about the willow tree? Where is the big willow tree Pu Jing mentioned? The backyard was completely bare. Where were the willow trees?
Let alone willow trees, there were only a few decent bushes. Now Shao Xi and Lao Wu were completely confused.
"Damn it! Where is the willow tree here? The little nun must have remembered it wrong, right? She said that the things were buried under the willow tree, but where is the willow tree? If there is no willow tree, where can we find the things? "Shao Xi, who was originally full of expectations, felt very disappointed at this moment. He rushed here with great interest, but found that the situation was different from what he imagined. In an instant, there was a huge psychological gap in his heart.
He looked at Old Wu next to him with a dazed expression on his face. At this time, Old Wu also looked confused. His eyes kept glancing around, looking as if he was still looking for the location of the willow tree. .
"Maybe the fire that year was so intense that even the willow tree in the backyard was burned by the fire. The burned trees are different from the trees that were cut down. Even the roots of the trees may have died. Lost.
"It should be because of this that no new willow trees will grow again. That little nun shouldn't tell lies, and she saw it with her own eyes, so she shouldn't have remembered it wrong. I think the two of us can still be good friends. Let's search the ground!" Thinking about what Lao Wu said, Shao Xi and Lao Wu split up and searched everywhere in the backyard. I believe that no matter how the fire burns, there will be a section of the willow tree left in the end. A tree stump outside the ground.
However, after searching a lot, the two of them still didn't find anything similar to a tree stump, which made them feel a little strange. Pu Jing obviously said that there was a big willow tree in the backyard, but now the willow tree seemed to have disappeared out of thin air.
The two searched several times, but still had no results. Finally, Shao Xi felt a little frustrated, sat down on a stone slab and complained.
"No more searching, no more searching! It's like a blind man lighting a lamp in vain. Where did the willow tree come from? I didn't even see a single willow tree hair! That little nun's memory was from her childhood, so maybe she remembered it wrong.
"The same goes for the two of us! Just based on some impressions from his memory when he was a few years old, the two of us came here like fools and stuck our butts out to look for things." Old Wu didn't say anything and also sat down. She stood on the stone slab, twirling the beard on her chin, as if recalling the scene in her memory when Pu Jing told herself and Shao Xi.
Old Wu believed that the little nun did not remember wrongly, but at the moment he could not explain why they could not find the willow tree.
Shao Xi suddenly became impatient when he saw that Lao Wu had been pondering for a long time but still couldn't come up with a result.
He stood up suddenly. He muttered: "I traveled thousands of miles to Yujiang County to find someone. I went back and forth for half a year, but it was useless! Forget it, let's not look for it anymore! Go back to eat, I'm hungry." After that, Shao Xi Just as he turned around to leave, he heard Old Wu calling him from behind.
"Bad boy, wait a minute!" Shao Xi turned around impatiently and asked, "Old guy, what are you going to do again?"
"Come here, sit where you were."
"What are you doing? I'm already going back, why are you asking me to sit down? Is it because you're too old to walk, and you still want me to sit with you for a while?"
"Why are you talking so much nonsense? Just sit down when I ask you to come over and sit down!" Shao Xi saw that Old Wu was a little anxious, and he was still wondering why this old guy was so anxious for no reason.
Don't you just want to sit with him for a while longer? Just sit down! Why are you so excited?
"Old guy, did you take the wrong medicine today?" Shao Xi muttered in a low voice. If you don't like it, you won't like it, but since Old Wu doesn't want to leave right now, then just sit with him for a while longer!
Anyway, today's trip was in vain. It doesn't make any difference to go back early or late. Thinking of this, Shao Xi reluctantly walked to the stone slab and sat down again. But the moment he sat down, he clearly felt the stone slab under his butt shake.
It felt as if there was something underneath the stone slabs that was padding them, preventing them from being laid flat on the ground.
Shao Xi looked up at Old Wu in surprise and saw Old Wu looking down at the stone slab. He raised his buttocks and sat down on the stone slab a few times, but the stone slab stopped moving again.
Old Wu looked at Shao Xi with a strange expression, and suddenly said again
"Stand up." Shao Xi seemed to realize something at this time. He did not make any rebuttal to Old Wu, but stood up again according to Old Wu's instructions.
The moment he stood up, the stone slab on Old Wu's side obviously fell downwards. Old Wu also stood up immediately, and saw that the side where Old Wu was sitting on just now tilted up again.
Old Wu glanced at Shao Xi and asked Shao Xi to sit down again. Shao Xi obediently walked over and sat on the stone slab again, and then Old Wu sat down in his original position again.
Then came the sentence
"You seem to have gained weight now!" Old Wu's words made Shao Xi so angry that he almost scolded his mother on the spot. This old guy had been tossing himself for a long time, but he finally came to this conclusion. He was so full!
Shao Xi discovered for the first time that this old guy has become so boring now!
"Are you idle, old guy? I thought you discovered something. You've been playing with me on the seesaw for a long time. It seems I'll have to find something for you to do in the future. You're not tired just chopping firewood in the woodshed. It's up to you, why don't I leave the fetching of water and feeding the horses to you from now on, so that you won't be so bored again." Old Wu didn't even pay attention to Shao Xi, and instead stared at the stone slab.
When Shao Xi saw that Old Wu was ignoring him, he couldn't help but feel angry. He cursed and said: "Damn it, you don't have Alzheimer's disease, do you? What's so good about just such a stone slab? Is it possible that you can still figure it out?" What new way to play?"
"What a joke! Come here and lift this stone slab for me."
"Damn it, have you had enough trouble? Why are you trying to compete with this slate? If you think I'm fatter than you and you don't push me, just eat more when you go back. Why are you using this slate to vent your anger?" "Who knew that Old Wu would become anxious now, and said to Shao Xi with a stern look: "Little bastard, who is making trouble with you? The willow tree should be under this stone slab, please open it for me."
"Huh? You said that tree is under here?"
