Cultivation of Immortals Begins with Drilling Wood To Make Fire

Most people in the mountain village are not very optimistic about Shen Aniu's continued survival. There is only one person left who is still looking for a way out.

"Paoshan" is a rural slang term, which means to go to the mountains to seek a living.

When Lin Hai was not farming, he would always go in with an axe, chop some firewood, sell it in the town down the mountain, and get a few pennies to buy oil, salt, needles and thread.

The mountain village is remote and closed, and foreign exchanges mainly rely on pedestrians passing by on the official road not far away, who occasionally come to stay overnight, or the two peddlers who go from village to town.

Because of the places he has traveled and the people he has met, in the eyes of the villagers, Lin Hai has always been a very "knowledgeable" person.

He has never been reconciled to the illness of his friend Shen Aniu.

Knowing that medicinal materials are difficult to find, Lin Hai asked the doctor about the appearance and habits of various medicinal materials. After learning that there are all kinds of medicinal materials in Yunzhong Mountain, even the fields are a bit deserted, and he goes up the mountain to search all day long.

Everyone is still not optimistic about this behavior.

"The medicinal materials are so easy to find, besides, can A Niu survive until he finds the medicine, alas..." Whenever this matter is mentioned, the villagers always shake their heads and sigh.

Only Lin Hai tirelessly goes into the mountains to search for it all day long.

That day, in the eyes of the people working and chatting at the entrance of the village, Lin Hai almost came back floating.

"What's the matter, Haizi, did you get rich? Or did you find a wife?" The exaggerated elder next to him asked with a smile:

"There is medicine! Ah Niu is saved!"

Lin Hai's words caused everyone to be restless: "Have you found everything?"

"It's too late to go into details. I'll send the medicine to Doctor Zhang first, and I'll share it with you when I get back." After he finished speaking, he led the yellow dog and walked down the mountain.

The place where Dr. Zhang practices medicine is quite far away. You need to walk to the official road and pass through the small town down the mountain along the official road to reach Dr. Zhang in Lijia Village.

The doctor finished processing the medicinal materials and asked Lin Hai to boil a few pieces for Shen A Niu. After A Niu started taking the medicine, his condition improved greatly.

The extra medicinal materials were left to the doctor, which pleased Doctor Zhang who was always short of medicine.

The process of Lin Hai obtaining medicinal materials gradually began to spread.

This lucky kid got a gift from a fairy!

At the same time, the saying that there are real immortals on the fairy cliff has gradually become a rumor and a story in the mouth of the villagers.

As for the immortals themselves, the simple mountain people don't care too much. Everyone's thinking is as simple as the life in the mountain village: immortals are immortals, and it is a good thing to have immortals.

Lin Hai would often come to Shen Aniu's house to take care of him. Seeing his friend's complexion getting better day by day, he was really happy from the bottom of his heart, and at the same time, he was even more grateful to that "Fang Immortal".

While Shen Aniu's condition was getting better, the villagers who were relieved by this often came to visit.

One day, when Lin Hai was taking care of A Niu's house, the little doll Lin Ergou next door came in:

"Brother A Niu, my mother asked me to bring you two eggs."

Ergou's name was obviously given by his family. Although it is not as nice as Lin Hai's name, it is very practical, because it can be easily heard from it - he also has an older brother, Lin Gouzi.

A Niu was embarrassed to refuse on the couch, but Lin Hai stepped forward and took it directly: "Go back and thank my aunt for A Niu... Hey Er Gouzi, why are you leaving in such a hurry, are you in a hurry to go down the mountain to play?"

"No, Brother Haizi." Lin Ergou stopped, "I guess you don't know yet, something happened to Xiaoxi."

"Ah? What's the matter?"

"Cut off."

Hearing this, Lin Hai hurriedly put the eggs away properly, talked to A Niu, and took Er Gouzi to the stream outside the village.

The word Xi in Linxi Village comes from this stream.

The person who named Lin Hai in the village was a "learned person" in the eyes of the villagers. He once suspected that the real name of the village was "Linxi Village", but when the ancestors registered in the county, they might have made a typo. , but this has long been untestable, which made that person always regret it.

Walking to the stream, Lin Hai saw that the stream had dried up, exposing patches of pebbles. Under the sunlight, the pebbles that had been soaked in water all year round gradually began to turn white.

"how so?"

Lin Hai asked Ergou next to him, and then learned that the incident happened suddenly.

The people washing by the stream first realized that something was wrong. The water level of the stream dropped and then became smelly, so they quickly took out their clothes.

Surprised and uncertain, the stream stopped flowing in front of everyone's eyes.

For Linxi Village, this is bad news.

The stream outside the mountain village is the source of water for everyone's daily life. They are used for cooking, drinking, washing, washing and feeding livestock. But the most deadly thing is that the terraced fields at the foot of the mountain are also irrigated by this water.

People and animals have no water to use, and they can still walk several miles to the mountains and rivers to carry it. If there is no water in the fields, the seedlings will die and the harvest will not be a disaster.

Very worried about this phenomenon, the villagers spontaneously organized a few people to go upstream along the valley.

When they reached the source above, they found that the spring water had dried up to the bottom, and there was no dripping water from the outlet, leaving a stone cave, which looked unfathomable. Faced with this scene, the villagers were frowning.

The news brought back by several explorers made the village miserable.

When Lin Hai came here with Ergou, most of the people in the village happened to gather here to discuss, and everyone even began to seriously consider whether to move or flee famine in the face of such a natural disaster.

With a heavy heart, he put down the two dogs and returned to Shen A Niu's residence.

After talking about this matter with Ah Niu, Ah Niu also became silent, and the two were relatively speechless.

"I don't want to, I'll boil the medicine first. Doctor Zhang said before that after drinking the last medicine, you can go to the ground after a day of rest. The water in the tank is still full, and there will always be a way." Lin Hai sighed No matter what, life has to go on.

Shen A Niu who was behind suddenly stopped Lin Hai:

"Haizi, you got this medicine from a fairy, tell me, can the fairy... have a way?"

Hearing what his friend said, Lin Hai continued to remain silent. He started the stove, carefully took out the medicinal materials from the paper bag, put them into jars, and added water to boil.

The water in the jar was tumbling, and the dense mist filled the small courtyard with the fragrance of medicine.

The flames reflected on Lin Hai's face.

Gritting his teeth, he made up his mind.

In the past, for the life and death of Shen Aniu, he could ask Immortal Fang, but now it is the life and death of the whole village, so why not fight it out!

Walking to the bed with the medicine in hand, Lin Hai said to Shen A Niu: "I'll go and ask the fairy head, if the request fails, everyone can only move away or flee from famine."

Hearing this, Shen A Niu suddenly got up from the collapsed bed and looked at Lin Hai. After a few breaths, Ah Niu realized that his appearance would not be of much help, so he sighed and lay down again, and said to his friend:

"be safe……"

…………

...

When turning up the fairy habitat cliff from the side, Lin Hai was full of apprehension. He didn't know whether he would offend Fang Xianchang if he came here rashly.

Seeing Fang Xianchang standing up and smiling towards this side, as if waiting for him to pass, Lin Hai felt relieved, and then he was overjoyed.

So he ran over quickly, not even noticing that the yellow dog that came up with him was being driven down the mountain by the monkey monster he had seen before.

After listening to Lin Hai's narration, Fang Chang helped him up to stand upright, and said, "Follow me." Then he glanced at the pottery blanks drying, and walked down the mountain with the woodcutter behind him.

Regarding the update: The old book will be finished on Sunday, and then it will be accelerated here, I hope everyone will bear with me...
