Chapter 436: He who can save the world is a good immortal
Chapter 436: If you can save people, you are a good immortal
It's near the autumnal equinox, and we're probably almost arriving in Yangzhou.
Songyou basically walks along the coastline, all the way to the east, which is convenient for Sanhua Empress to play on the beach and eat some seafood.
However, this road is really wild. The seaside is very barren except for rich seafood. However, if you eat too much of anything in a short period of time, it will become boring. Even if Song You has plenty of spices and rich knowledge of cooking
, I change my cooking style every day, but I still want to eat some beef, mutton, and pork, and I want to eat some home-cooked stir-fry with more smoke and smoke to enrich my diet.
It's just that Empress Sanhua was really happy at the beach. Song You thought that the road to the mainland would still be long in the future, but he might not be able to go to the beach a few more times, so he continued to walk along the coast.
However, as we walked, we could no longer reach the coast.
It’s not that we’ve reached the end of the east side, but further forward, although we still have the coast, there are no beaches anymore. Most of them are mountains, forests and cliffs. The occasional beach is gone. There are no villages, county towns, and official roads, so it is inevitable to travel to Song Dynasty.
We need to go a little further north, into the inland mountains.
Slowly, the cities and villages passing by became more prosperous, more and more people spoke Mandarin, and those who spoke dialect gradually disappeared.
Song You knew that he was going to Yangzhou.
At this time, I didn’t know which mountain it was. I only knew that there were many villages and dwellings at the foot of the mountain. They were concentrated among the mountains. Most of them were buildings with white walls and black tiles. They were continuous and well-proportioned. When Song You walked to the mountainside, he overlooked this place.
I couldn't help but stop to rest for a while due to the beautiful scenery. Now that I've reached the top of the mountain, it feels quite cool.
The Taoist walked slowly, leaning on his bamboo stick.
Suddenly, a strange crop appeared on the roadside.
This kind of crop grows as tall as a person, and each stem is as straight as a bamboo stick. At first glance, it looks like sorghum. All the stems and leaves of the crop are withered and yellow, and there are fruits on them. The thickest ones are as thick as sorghum.
The human arms are thicker, and they are also wrapped in withered yellow leaves, with black and brown whiskers on the top.
These plants grow densely, blocking the view.
"gentlemen……"
Yanzi was the first to notice something was wrong and turned to look at him.
At this time, his dark eyes flashed with strange light.
"I saw it."
Song You also turned his gaze to the field nearby and couldn't take it back for a while.
It has long been known that Lao Yanxian, in order to seek merit and become a god, ordered all the younger members of the family to go overseas to find improved seeds, and has already begun to benefit the world, but this is the first time in his life that he has seen a corn field.
"Yanmi..."
Yes, it changed its name.
Named after Swallow.
Song You and Yan Zi both turned their heads and stared for a long time, but their footsteps did not stop.
The horse also followed him.
The sound of bells echoed in the cornfield.
Suddenly there was an open space beside the road.
"..."
Song You stopped, thought for a moment, then looked up at the sky: "It seems to be noon, let's take a break here and cook a meal."
Of course no one refuted it.
The cat also stopped.
But she felt strange in her heart——
In the past, when Taoist priests stopped to rest and prepare meals on the way, they would either choose a place with a wide view and beautiful scenery to easily see the scenery, or they would choose a place that was sheltered from the wind and rain or out of the sun. This Taoist priest walked slowly.
Even if you don’t want to ride a horse, you often have to take a nap on the way.
Today, there are such small trees on both sides of the road here. You can't see them anywhere. You don't even know that there is a tiger hidden inside. Although the forest is dense, it can't block the sun. There is a small tree on the roadside. However, the small tree has no branches or branches.
The leaves are very sparse and provide no shade at all.
It's really strange.
The cat only saw that they had been looking into the small woods. For some reason, it became more and more curious, so it stopped and peered into the woods.
Of course nothing can be seen.
It wasn't until the Taoist stopped by the open space, took off the quilt from the horse's back, and took out the pots and pans that she quickly transformed into a human form and went to help.
A pot of millet porridge was cooked quickly.
On the left side of the little girl is a quilt, on the right is firewood, and in front of her is a small pot for cooking porridge, with steam rising from the pot.
The Taoist priest sat cross-legged under a small tree, motionless.
Sometimes I look at the cornfield, sometimes I look at the little girl lighting the fire.
He seemed a little guilty and thought for a while before speaking:
"Since Sanhua Empress has grown one year older, she seems to have become more diligent, and her cooking skills have also improved."
"Really?"
"Of course it is true. Sanhua Empress is becoming more and more powerful as she grows older." The Taoist said, "I used to need me to take care of Sanhua Empress. Later, I needed Sanhua Empress to help me collect firewood."
I had to make a fire to cook, but now Sanhua Empress can feed me, the horses and the swallows all by herself, which is really amazing."
"Really?"
"How can I be a person who likes to lie?" Song You pursed his lips and looked up at the branches, "If you don't believe me, you can ask Yan An."
"brush!"
The little girl turned her head instantly and looked at Yanzi.
Yanzi stood directly above Song You's head, on the branches of a small tree. He was just like Song You, looking at the field of swallows in a trance, his thoughts drifting far away. As for the following dialogue, how many times did he have such a dialogue?
I have heard it countless times over the years, and I have already achieved the state of "it seems like I am not listening even though I am listening", but I never thought that one day I would be involved in it.
Hearing what the gentleman said, he was immediately stunned.
When he faced the gaze of Empress Sanhua, his scalp was numb and he felt uncomfortable all over.
"This... is... yes..."
After Yanzi finished speaking, he turned his head away.
"!"
Sanhua Empress suddenly seemed to be affirmed, and a sense of pride arose spontaneously.
"Look, Yan An said the same thing." Song You said, shaking his head and looking at the horse next to him, "It's a pity that the horse can't speak, otherwise he would definitely feel the same way."
"But Sanhua Empress still hasn't grown much taller..."
"Hey~~" Song You trailed off in a long tone, "That's wrong! I once heard that if the mountain is not high, the immortal will be famous; if the water is not deep, the dragon will be spiritual. So what about the cat and the Sanhua Empress?
Isn’t that so?”
"Meow?"
"The most powerful cat does not lie in how handsome and beautiful it is, or it is strong and powerful. A cat that can catch mice for people is a good cat. This is undoubtedly the case with the Sanhua cat! The maturity and power of the Sanhua Empress do not lie in the three-dimensional cat.
How tall will the Flower Empress be after she transforms into a human form? If she can take on the responsibilities in the team and take good care of other members of the team, then she is a mature, responsible and responsible Sanhua Empress!"
"!"
The little girl's fair brows instantly wrinkled.
But I don’t doubt the truth of these words——
These words sound so good, and you know they are true as soon as you hear them. They are full of the sweet flavor of truth.
But just like before, I was confused for a moment. The Taoist priest had the same mouth as me and could speak human language, but why did the words spoken by the Taoist priest sound so nice? Listening to my ears was like reading a good article.
The article is the same, no, it makes the cat feel more comfortable than reading a good article.
At first she thought it was because she had not read a book, but now she has read a lot of books, but in this regard, she is still far behind the Taoist priests.
"..."
It seems that I still need to work hard.
Empress Sanhua gritted her teeth and strengthened her determination.
The swallow stood on the branch, quietly watching this scene, shaking his head secretly——
I don’t know when it will take Empress Sanhua to wake up, and I don’t know how she will feel when the day comes.
At this moment, the sound of footsteps suddenly came from the corn forest.
The little girl and Yanzi turned to look at the same time.
But I saw an old farmer with a sickle on his waist, walking slowly up the mountain along the official road. Perhaps he heard the voices here first, and seeing the lush crops here, the old farmer was a little wary.
I saw the bay-red horse first, and I became even more vigilant.
I was relieved to see the Taoist and the girl again.
"Why are you resting here, sir?"
"I'm tired from walking, so I'll cook a meal here." Song You straightened up and bowed, "That's polite."
The little girl immediately stood up and saluted.
"hey-hey……"
The old farmer just opened his mouth and smiled, not knowing how to return the favor, but he had already expressed his goodwill, and then he said: "I saw smoke in the soil on the mountain at the roof of the house, and I thought someone was burning my oatmeal field. Otherwise, it was the ones today.
A man who went up the mountain to worship God accidentally set my oatmeal field on fire. Come up and have a look."
"oh……"
Song You came to his senses and bowed again: "That means we were resting and cooking here, which caused a misunderstanding to my father-in-law and made me have to make a long trip."
The old farmer still laughed and only waved his hands.
Song You took this opportunity to ask: "Is this field of swallow rice grown by my father-in-law's family?"
"Who else could it be?"
"This is the first time I've seen Yanmi Field."
"How do you recognize it when you see it for the first time?"
"I've heard of it before and seen it before. It's just grown in the ground. This is the first time I've seen it in my life." After Song finished speaking, he asked him, "I wonder where my father-in-law introduced the improved species. Is it
Did you just start planting this year, or have you started planting before?”
"This..."
Seeing that he spoke softly and was a Taoist, the old farmer was willing to talk to him, so he stood and said to him: "The seeds were brought from Yangzhou. It is said that there is a god named Yanxian. In order to let us
The people can afford to eat, and the harvests brought back from overseas are very good. No one has planted it here yet. This is the first time our family has planted it, and we only planted these two pieces of soil. We can plant it in Yangzhou.
many."
"That's not bad."
"Oh, no matter what kind of rice it is, if it can feed the belly, it is good rice; no matter what kind of rice it is, if it can save the world, it is a good rice."
"exactly."
Song You nodded in agreement and couldn't help but smile.
The swallows on the branches also have shining eyes.
For Song You, this is not only a picture in his memory, but also a change in this land due to him. Seeing it with his own eyes at this time, he naturally feels mysterious in his heart. For Yanzi, this is the story of the Anqing Yanzi clan in their old age.
Under the instructions of the Yanxian, countless swallows flew overseas. After several years of searching, what they brought back after hard work was the merit and good fortune of the Anqing swallows. Now I see that they are truly benefiting the people in this land.
Some people remember the name Yanxian, some call them Yanmi, and some are grateful to them. As the bird in question, I naturally feel strange in my heart.
Only Sanhua Empress could not understand the emotions in their hearts at this time. She only turned to look at the small forest, her eyes full of curiosity and doubt.
