2932. Chapter 2932 Taoyuan Dream (2)
Taoyuan Village is not big or small, with nearly seventy or eighty families.
The strong man is named A Niu, who has lived in this Taoyuan Village for generations.
Taoyuan Village has pleasant scenery and fertile land, and the villagers can live and work in peace and contentment.
When Aniu learned that Shen Lang was a martial artist, he was very envious of him.
"I didn't expect that there was such a wonderful world outside our Taoyuan Village. I always thought that our Taoyuan Village was the best." A Niu scratched his head and said with a smile.
"Living lives everywhere, Taoyuan Village is as wonderful as it is." Shen Lang smiled faintly.
This is extremely relaxed and peaceful, without fighting and killing from the outside world, and without those troubles, it is indeed refreshing.
When a person has the power and power at the peak, he will miss some things that have passed away.
"Brother Shen Lang came to us, just to find the cave of Taiyi Zhenren?" A Niu asked.
Shen Lang nodded slightly: "No, since Brother A Niu has never heard of Taiyi Zhenren, then you might as well tell me some secrets about Taoyuan Village, such as some strange events, and some legends."
"Our Taoyuan Village does not believe in immortals and gods, so there is no legend. If you have to tell me about the strange things that happened in Taoyuan Village, there is one thing..." A Niu sighed.
Shen Lang couldn't help but ask, "Please tell me!"
"There is a very strange little girl in our village. The child is named A Cai, and it is said that she has lived for hundreds of years." A Niu said in a deep voice.
"How many hundred years have you lived?" Shen Lang's eyebrows raised.
It is naturally impossible for ordinary people, but it is normal for them to be cultivators.
"We are just hearing about it, not sure if it is true. About hundreds of years ago, a family in Taoyuan Village gave birth to a girl named A Cai. There are also records in the genealogy, and this is indeed true."
"It is said that one day A Cai's child was playing in the hillside in the north of the village and got lost in the mountains. The whole village found her for ten days and ten nights but couldn't find her. By the time A Cai came back from the mountains, it was already hundreds of years later. Because of this, the villagers thought that A Cai's child was cursed by some ghost in the mountains, which was very unlucky."
A Niu said slowly.
Shen Lang's eyes lit up. This was a clue. He asked quickly: "Brother A Niu, is that child named A Cai still in the village?"
A Niu nodded: "Often A Cai often plays alone by the river at the west side of the village. That child is also very pitiful. No one in the village dares to adopt her, but we villagers often send her some food and clothes."
"Thank you for your advice!"
Shen Lang said gratefully.
After chatting for a few words, Shen Lang left Aniu's house and went to the river west of Taoyuan Village.
...
There is a small river to the west of Taoyuan Village, and the river water is clear and clear.
Shen Lang really saw a little girl swinging under the willow tree by the river, singing a crisp and pleasant song in her mouth.
The girl looks like she is eight or nine years old, wearing a goose yellow shirt and a ponytail, and her hair turns into two strands, looking very cute.
Even though he lost his cultivation, Shen Lang's eyesight was still beyond ordinary people. He could find that this girl was extraordinary and naturally exuded a completely different aura of holyness.
I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but Shen Lang always feels that the aura emitted by this little girl is quite similar to that of Zhang Daoling.
Seeing Shen Lang walking slowly, the girl grimaced at him and scared him: "Bad man, don't step forward again, otherwise A Cai will curse you!"
Shen Lang felt a little funny, and came to the little girl and said, "Little sister, I'm not a bad person, I just want to ask you about something."
"I'm not a little sister!"
The girl puffed up her mouth and said suspiciously: "Bad man, you are not afraid of A Cai's curse. Where did you come from? A Cai seems to have never seen you before."
"I am indeed not a local. But don't worry, little sister, I have no malice. I just want to know how to leave this Taoyuan Village and go deeper into the mountains." Shen Lang asked tentatively.
The girl curled her lips, as if she was unwilling to tell Shen Lang how, and snorted: "Why should I tell you unless you can bring some fun to A Cai."
Shen Lang asked patiently: "Sister A Cai, I wonder what fun do you like?"
"A Cai likes some beautiful clay figures, and more exquisite puppets are fine." The girl said with interest what she liked.
Fortunately, it was not an outrageous condition, so Shen Lang decided to coax her and said with a smile: "Okay, Sister A Cai, please wait for me here first, and I'll get you something fun right away."
"Okay, okay, as long as you can do it, A Cai will definitely wait for you!" Little stars flashed in the girl's eyes.
Shen Lang nodded, went to the mountains first, and hunted a wild boar.
There were no monsters around Taoyuan Village, but there were still some ordinary wild animals in the mountains. In less than five minutes, Shen Lang carried a huge wild boar back to the village market and sold it for a good price.
Originally, Shen Lang wanted to buy some clay men, but found that no one in the village is doing this now, so he simply bought a few carving knives and jade, and prepared to carve some gadgets himself for A Cai.
After the materials were prepared, Shen Lang came to the riverside and began to carve some gadgets himself.
He picked up the carving knife and began to carve it one by one, focusing on selflessness.
Seeing that Shen Lang was so concerned, A Cai was surprised when her pretty face was surprised. She immediately trotted over to look at Shen Lang's carving.
Shen Lang's hand speed was not fast. He carefully carved it and carved it for half a day before he completed an exquisite flying phoenix jade carving.
The carved phoenix is lifelike, gorgeous and incomparable. The phoenix spreads its wings and soars, and even every phoenix feather is clearly visible, as if it has come alive.
"Come on, I'll give you this thing."
Shen Lang pierced the jade carving, tied a small red rope, and hung it around A Cai's neck.
A Cai was surprised and repeatedly played with the flying phoenix jade carving in her hand, and couldn't let it go and said, "Wow, this is really beautiful! Big brother, this thing seems to be very expensive. Do you really want to give it to me?"
"certainly."
Shen Lang nodded.
A Cai was full of joy, even moved, and his eyes turned red: "Thank you, brother, no one has ever given A Cai such a good gift."
Shen Lang smiled and shook his head: "Sister A Cai, this is nothing to me. If you like it, I can make some for you."
"No, no, such a valuable thing is enough! By the way, before, you asked A Cai how to enter the deepest part of the mountain. In fact, A Cai couldn't answer you."
A Cai's face was red and he looked a little embarrassed.
Shen Lang couldn't help asking, "Sister A Cai, don't you know either?"
