Rouqing said: "Brother Ruogu, how is your great-grandfather doing now?"
"Hey, he was gone when I was seven years old..."
"Ah? Seven years old..." Rouqing was afraid of mentioning his sadness again, so she didn't ask any more questions!
"Girl, this Hanyu Mountain is freezing to the bone. It is inaccessible all year round. You came here alone. Could it be that you encountered something urgent?" Ruogu said.
"I want to come to collect herbs. Brother Ruogu grew up in Hanyu Mountain and must be very familiar with this place. Are there any fairy herbs growing on this mountain?" Rouqing asked.
"Ah, jelly grass. There are a lot of jelly grass here. I wonder if the jelly grass the girl mentioned is famous?"
After hearing this, Rouqing was pleasantly surprised and said hurriedly: "Have you ever seen the thousand-year-old purple ganoderma, the hundred-year-old agrimony, and the ten-thousand-year-old rhubarb?"
"Thousand-year-old Purple Lingzhi?"
"Yes, Millennium Purple Ganoderma!"
"There are quite a lot of Ganoderma lucidum growing here, but I have never seen the thousand-year-old purple Ganoderma lucidum you mentioned..."
“What about the century-old agrimony and the ten thousand-year-old rhubarb?”
"Century Agrimony, I heard my great-grandfather said during his lifetime that this kind of immortal grass is relatively common. Most of them grow in the cracks of bluestones on the mountainside in the southwest. Their growth period is not too long, at most one or two hundred years..."
"Wow, one or two hundred years? Isn't that long?" Rouqing asked in surprise!
"Haha, the fairy grass on Hanyu Mountain can grow for more than a thousand years at least. One or two hundred years is a short time. As for the ten thousand-year-old rhubarb essence, it can only be found on the top of the thousand-year snow peak. It cannot be found in ordinary places. Growing!”
"Oh, you know a lot!"
"It's natural to run on the road all the time!"
Ruogu asked: "Did the girl come here to find these three kinds of fairy grass?"
"Yes!" Rouqing replied.
"What are you doing looking for these fairy grasses?" Ruogu asked curiously.
"Treating my father..."
"Cure?"
"Well, my father was poisoned, and the miraculous doctor Gu Mu said that the only way to detoxify him is to find these three kinds of fairy grass!"
"Oh, that's it..." Ruogu thought for a moment and said, "Don't worry, girl, Ruogu will definitely help you, but whether you can really meet him in this vast mountain depends on luck!"
"Brother Lao Ruogu!" Tenderness saluted with both hands.
"You're welcome, let's go, I'll take you to find the century-old agrimony first!"
"Hmm..." Rouqing smiled and nodded!
So, the two of them climbed up the cliff and ran all the way to the southwest!
"These century-old Agrimony grows on the cliffs. If you don't look carefully, you will never find it. It's too dangerous ahead. Girl, just wait for me here!" After Ruogu said that, he jumped off the cliff!
"Ruogu, be careful!"
A breeze blew by, rolling up the dead leaves. On a huge blue stone wall, there were countless red leaves stacked in layers. Under the leaves, there seemed to be green light shining, and the breeze rippled together. Ruogu's eyes lit up, and then With his feet a little bit, his clothes were fluttering, and he flew up several feet in an instant. His upper body was lightly pressed against the stone cliff. He peeled off the leaves with his right hand and looked for them. He saw a fairy grass with a root as thick as an arm and leaves as big as a blue plate. Under his eyes, he hurriedly stretched out his hand to pick it, but as soon as his palm touched the root leaf, he suddenly felt pain like being pierced by a silver needle. He pulled it out hard and lifted it up by the root. Then he jumped down from the stone wall and saw an immortal. The grass was intact and I was relieved!
"girl……"
Rouqing looked down the cliff and saw Ruogu waving to her with the fairy grass: "Look, girl, the fairy grass is here!"
"Ruogu, be careful!" Rouqing shouted!
"This agrimony is round in color and its roots are purple. It has been growing for more than a hundred years. I'll pass the agrimony up to you. You can take it!" Ruogu climbed along the cliff and held an agrimony in his hand. Rouqing was secretly happy when she saw the sparkling blue waves of the agrimony and its delicate beauty, so she took it with both hands and said to him: "Ruogu, come up quickly!"
"Girl, wait a minute, I'm going to pick some wild fruits!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the person disappeared again.
Tender hands holding agrimony, eyes shining!
Suddenly, a strange cry of "Gah" came from the cliff, and a huge red bird flew from mid-air. It had a pair of big golden eyes reflecting a pair of black eyes. It opened its big mouth and flapped its wings and screamed at her, tenderly. Look, she couldn't help but break into a cold sweat. The long golden claws of the red bird picked up the agrimony in her hand and flew high into the sky!
"Oops, agrimony!" Rouqing didn't expect this red bird to be so powerful, so she said angrily: "Damn bird, give me the agrimony now!" At the same time, there was only a "clang" sound, and the red bird on its back was The Rui Yang Sword is already in hand!
"I didn't want to kill you, but you took my agrimony!" Rouqing said and raised her sword... "Girl, don't hurt it!" Ruogu suddenly jumped onto the cliff!
"Ruogu, the agrimony was snatched away by birds!" Rouqing said!
"Don't hurt it!" Ruogu stepped forward to block her sword and said: "This is just an innocent bird. It is still a stranger when it meets you for the first time. It must regard you as an enemy. Let me slowly tame it! "After that, he took out the bamboo flute from his arms and blew it gently. The sound of the flute came out leisurely, and the red bird circled twice in the air, and suddenly flew slowly to his chest, opened its big mouth, and heard the agrimony. Falling down, the red bird gave a long cry and flew into the distance!
Seeing this, Rouqing was very surprised and said: "This bird can really understand the music?"
Ruogu laughed and said: "Haha, this is nothing. Maybe it's because I have been accompanying the birds for a long time, but it has made them understand each other!"
Ruogu picked up the agrimony and said: "Actually, this is a very magical bird. Legend has it that after their feathers are full, they will fly southward, flying and flying, just to give way to Nanyan Mountain. The sky fire ignited its own feathers, and then brought the fire back to the ancient country of Loulan and turned it into ashes in Tianyi Mountain, so the people of Loulan called it flamingo!"
"Flamingo?" Yes, flamingos, they have only one partner in their life, they stay together through thick and thin, go through life and death, go through the fire and then be reborn! "
"This is truly a magical bird!"
After listening to Rouqing, she couldn't help but feel deep sympathy for the flamingos, and then became in awe of nature!
Like falling flowers chasing the autumn water, like the sunset reflecting the blue sky...
Rouqing looked up and saw the flamingo galloping through the clouds again, drawing a graceful curve and adding some autumn colors to the empty valley!
"Girl, don't worry, just let it go!"
Ruogu held the agrimony in his hand and said: "When I was a child, I heard from my great grandfather that this agrimony has a touching story: a long time ago, there lived an old man with white hair in the Parrot Island with lush grass. The old man practiced medicine and cultivated immortality at the same time. One day, a big bird fell in front of the building and made a mournful cry. The old man heard the sound and went out of the building, only to see a bleeding yellow crane. So the old man went to the mountains to collect a handful of herbs and crushed them. The concoction was applied to Huang He's wound, and Huang He's injury soon healed. In the early morning of the next day, everyone saw the old man leaving leisurely on the Yellow Crane! Later, people called the old man a fairy, and he lived there The building is called Yellow Crane Tower, and the healing herb is called Agrimony!"
Looking into the distance tenderly, listening to his detailed words... Maybe, no one in this world has heard his story again!
As for the beautiful legend about agrimony, later generations have poems to prove it:
People in the past have gone away on the Yellow Crane, and the Yellow Crane Tower is empty here. Once the Yellow Crane is gone, it will never return, and the white clouds will remain empty for thousands of years! There are Hanyang trees in Qingchuan, luxuriant grass and Parrot Island. Where is the hometown at dusk? The Yanbo River makes people sad!
