Where did the heart-eating insect spirit go? After the bats rescued it, it was shocked. Then it thought that being with a large group of bats would be too big a target and would surely lead to constant pursuit by humans. After entering the cave, he immediately used a magical power.
Find another cave to heal.
If the evil is not eliminated, there will be future troubles. The human race and the water race searched over and over again like sieves, but to no avail. If it is injured, it will definitely not be able to run far, and its combat effectiveness will not be very strong. Yu assigned his disciples
Team up with two people to expand the search scope. A month has passed, but there is still no result.
It turns out that the heart-eating insect Jing'er remembered that it lived on peach husk and tree heart in the peach orchard, and suddenly had an idea. It revealed its original body, hid in the trunk of the peach forest, sucked the juice of peach branches for food, and came out late at night.
When the human race went deep into the mountains to practice martial arts to heal their injuries, the smartest human race could not imagine that it would be hiding in the branches. In this way, the human race searched for it for more than a month to no avail.
On the winter solstice, it is a day to worship ancestors. Incense is lit in every village, and the smoke floats to the peach grove. Er stretches his nose and inhales wildly. Life in the world is really difficult. He has not inhaled incense for many days, although he smokes it every day.
You don't have to go hungry to suck the sap, but how can the peach trees in the world compare with the peach trees in the sky? Moreover, you don't have to be so frightened in the peach orchard. For a moment, Er was filled with emotions and shed a few words.
Tears.
"The fragrance of lychees is approaching·Winter Solstice"
Hiding in the heart of the tree, I heard the voice of jackdaws in the forest. The voice was hoarse and unpleasant, and I woke up from my dream. Fireworks were used to worship ancestors in the world, and the fragrance filled the peach orchard. I screamed wildly, but I felt even more hungry in my belly.
Recalling those days in the peach orchard, my mouth watered. Once ripe, it took ten thousand years for me to pick and pick it by myself. The kernels were as big as walnuts, and they were just what I wanted. My tears wet and chilled the peach trees.
It doesn't matter that Er sheds tears. It has stayed in the peach orchard for hundreds of thousands of years, and its tears contain the aura of the peach. When one drop falls on the peach tree, even though it is the coldest time of the winter solstice, with the injection of this aura,
The peach trees sprouted green buds and bloomed peach blossoms one after another. The peach blossoms bloomed in the cold weather. Is this a rare event? Is it a good sign or a bad sign? The villagers who discovered this phenomenon talked a lot.
Are the peach blossoms blooming in the winter solstice? After Yu pondered for a while, he recalled that Tianmu once mentioned the origin of the heart-eating insect essence. It was the heart-eating insect in the peach garden that was bitten by the Taibai Venus at the Peach Festival, and escaped to the human world. He deduced that this strange thing was transformed into the human world.
The elephant is related to Er. He immediately ordered not to alert others, and secretly made arrangements with his disciples.
While everyone was listening carefully, a voice suddenly came from outside the door: "Old Ke, pick up the shotgun quickly, the car is already outside."
"What are you doing with a gun? It's broad daylight now. Why are you hunting?" Lao Ke asked while changing his clothes: "It was Xiao Han and the others who lured the prey into the valley."
"That's right, the encirclement has been encircled. Now it's time to catch the enemy." A strong middle-aged man came in and helped him pack his luggage.
"Let's get to know Lao Hantou from the hunting team. If you want to hunt for songs, go to him." Lao Ke pushed him with his hand and introduced him to boss Jin Huabin and Ouyang, "How about you guys go and meet him together?"
It was a rare opportunity, so Jin Huabin and Boss Ouyang immediately followed. They drove to the vicinity of Baolong Village, walked into the mountains, and came to a prominent platform. Two hunters were already waiting on the platform. At the mouth of the box, there were two other hunters holding hands.
Dozens of Chinese pastoral dogs were guarding below, barking constantly. I heard them coming to collect news, and several hunters fired their shotguns into the sky and sang at the top of their lungs:
"Dianjiangtai"
Ho ho ho, Zhu Shi, Zhu Shi
In the past, Qin lost its deer,
There are endless disputes in the world,
Chu River and Han Dynasty Xiang Liu,
Check the name of Han Xin.
Ho ho ho, Zhu Shi, Zhu Shi
I ascend to the high platform and gaze upon it,
Pigs and rabbits rush in the valley,
Zhuge trapped Sima,
Above the name of the Three Kingdoms Valley
Ho ho ho, Zhu Shi, Zhu Shi
The high platform is known as the Point Commander,
I feel so complacent,
Look up to the sky and whistle,
Hundreds of dogs barking and hoofing
Ho ho ho, Zhu Shi, Zhu Shi
We hunted dozens of foxes and rabbits,
It’s a good time to sell wine and surround the fire,
Green ants are newly established in the home,
Is it okay for the distinguished guests to get drunk together?
Ho ho ho, Zhu Shi, Zhu Shi
The sound of the gun was an order. The hunter at the bottom of the valley opened the mouth of the box and released the hound. The hunter on the stage raised his gun and took aim. The prey had been trapped for a day and a night, and was disturbed by the hunter. It was already exhausted. In less than an hour, the hunt was over, and four wild boars were hunted.
There were more than ten rabbits and two civet cats. On the way back, Boss Ouyang asked in a low voice: "My dad has a bad stomach and wants a wild boar belly. What's the price?"
"The price depends on the snake spots. One spot is 200 yuan. If there are no spots, it's free." Old Hantou shouted loudly: "The price depends on luck. Which one do you choose?"
The stomach of a wild boar is called wild boar belly. There is a saying among the immortals that if a wild boar eats snakes, every time it eats a poisonous snake, there will be an extra spot in the stomach, and the nourishing effect is better, so the belly with more spots is more expensive. Boss Ouyang pointed out
Pointing at the largest wild boar, Lao Hantou raised his knife and dug out the belly and said, "Twenty-one spots. The boss is so lucky to have found a belly king. Let's do this. I'll give you one. That's four thousand yuan."
.”
The market price of wild boar belly is generally around 700 to 800. Is this a killing of pigs or is this really happening? Boss Ouyang’s expression changed.
Upon seeing this, Jin Huabin said: "The other three tripes are also priced at the same price. One snake spot is two hundred yuan. Can I take a bet?"
Once again, he raised the knife and dropped the knife. The examination revealed that only one of the three tripes had spots. Old Hantou smiled and said: "Two hundred yuan for three. These tripes can only be used as vegetables and cannot be used as medicine."
Jin Huabin handed several tripes together to Boss Ouyang. Only then did he realize that hunters really had this habit, so he iced the tripes with great care and paid the money happily.
After returning to his residence, he stewed a large pot of wild boar meat. Surrounded by fellow travellers, Lao Ke continued the story: "In the middle of the night, Er came out of the heart of the peach tree and came to the cave to use his magical powers to heal his wounds, but his mind could not be calmed.
Without coming down, I look back on my life. I have eaten all the peaches in the peach orchard for hundreds of thousands of years, but I hide every day for fear that the gods and warriors will find out. When I came to the world, I thought I could establish a clan with my own ability, but instead
It also made everyone shout and beat him.
"Quiet Night Song"
How hard fate is for me
Does anyone know?
Let me taste the Queen Mother's flat peaches first
Being chased by gods
It is the nature of insects to feed on peaches
Just like a wolf trying to eat a sheep
Run away, run away, run away, run away
Hide under the mortal mountain
Thinking of starting a sect and receiving incense
Encountered Yu again and chased him
While he was thinking about it, he heard a noisy sound outside the cave. Could it be that Yu found out that he was following him again? Er concentrated his mind and focused on the outside. Suddenly, he felt a heartbreaking pain in his body...
The human race surrounded the Taolin, put up a barrier around it, and began to search for the heart-eating insect spirit. Soon, a villager found it curled up into a ball in the cave, dead. It was said that eating its meat would make people live longer.
They all took out their copper knives and soon divided its body, leaving a large piece of meat for Yu and his disciples.
Yesterday's arrow wound was not a fatal wound, so how could it die? But its flesh was torn apart, and it was impossible to find out the cause of its death. Tuo came to Master Yu with the meat and shook his head helplessly
.Although the cause of death is unknown, it is always a happy event when a monster is destroyed, and everyone started celebrating with gongs and drums.
It is always a strange thing for the peach forest to bloom in the twelfth lunar month. Later generations called the cave where Er hid, the Taoyuan Cave. What makes this cave even more famous is that it is related to Li Bai.
Note: Taoyuan Cave is located on Chicheng Mountain, Hengxi Town, Xianju.
