Legend of Shi’En - C107
Shi En and Shang Qian never expected that other than the two of them, there were other people who would also be coming up the mountain. Shi En and Shang Qian looked at the two sides vigilantly. Under the light of the lantern in their hands, they could vaguely see some flowers and plants.
On the way, Shi En had noticed that there were a lot of dirty plants growing within the forest on the mountain. It gave off a very depressing feeling, and the higher they went, the stronger the feeling became. Even the surrounding air started to change gradually, the smell of the grass and leaves started to become stronger as well, Shi En sniffed the air, and discovered that there was an unusual smell mixed within.
Shi En raised his head and looked at the sky. The trees on the mountain grew very tall, the cold and beautiful moonlight seeped through the gaps between the leaves, as though the moonlight on the mountain was causing a few degrees of coldness. In this gloomy and gloomy environment, countless creatures were hibernating in their nests, quietly waiting for the arrival of spring, or perhaps they were waiting for death.
In an instant, the entire place became silent. After a while, Shang Qian said to Shi En in a soft voice: “Brother Shi En. “This …”
“Shh, I don’t think that person left just now.”
As expected, they heard the sound of shoes trampling on snow. A Elder Farmer walked out from the depths of their backs, lit a cigarette for himself, raised his head and blew a smoke ring. He lightly glanced at Shi En and Shang Qian who were still on guard, and then coldly muttered to himself.
Shi En raised the lantern in his hand, and the soft light illuminated Elder Farmer’s face. The old man was in his fifties, had a black beard, was wrapped in a thick beast skin coat, and was wearing a bamboo hat.
Shang Qian saw that the Elder Farmer did not look like a bad person, and asked: “Elder Farmer, we are here to look for someone, have you seen anyone else on the mountain?”
Elder Farmer shook his head, and said: “I should be going up the mountain at the same time as you, but the road up the mountain is different, I have never seen anyone else.”
Shi En rubbed his smooth chin, and asked doubtfully: “Uncle, what are you doing up the mountain?”
“Mmm, I came here without knowing why.” Elder Farmer extinguished his cigarette, then took the water bottle from his waist and opened its lid, just as he was about to drink a few mouthfuls of water to quench his thirst, the water bottle was empty, Elder Farmer frowned and could only give up, since he knew that if he took a few more steps, there would be a spring in front of him, and he would probably have some sweet spring water to quench his thirst, but he did not know if it was completely frozen or not.
After putting away the kettle, he turned around and continued on his way, “If the two of you find someone, then quickly leave this mountain. Otherwise, something bad will happen.” After saying these words of warning, Elder Farmer walked into the deep forest, leaving the two of them staring at each other.
“Who is the Elder Farmer? Was that some kind of warning? ”
“Who knows? “Looks like he’s from the nearby village, let’s not bother about him.”
Shi En kept his gaze on Elder Farmer until he could no longer be seen, then heaved a sigh of relief. When Elder Farmer was holding onto the water bottle on his waist, his sharp eyes had noticed that there were two guns on his waist. It seemed like Elder Farmer had some unspeakable secrets.
“Seems like this mountain is not safe. We need to hurry and see if we can find Shu Xiaoxiao and Zhu Xiaochang.”
As a result, Shi En and Shang Qian continued to anxiously walk up the mountain to look for the person. Shang Qian was carrying a small talker with him, calling out the names of Shu Xiaoxiao and Zhu Xiaochang as he walked. Originally, Shi En was a little worried that Shang Qian would attract the jackals and tigers from the mountains over, but he thought that in this snow, even if there were dregs with a fighting strength of less than two hundred, who had starved for several days, he would still not waste any time, so he didn’t have any intention of stopping Shang Qian.
After entering the forest, the smell of grass and wood became even stronger. Fortunately, they found a shortcut to the mountain. Although the blizzard had passed for a few days, it still brought many disasters to the forest.
Along the way, a familiar feeling came from Shi En’s crotch. He slowly stopped and looked all around to find a convenient place. Shi En found a place to hide in the deep forest. He clamped his legs tight and walked until he was in front of Shang Qian. Then he said to him, “White-haired Boy, wait here for me.
Brother Shi En, don’t go too far. I’ll wait here for you to come back. ” Shang Qian was a man of reason and understanding, if it was him, Zhu Xiaochang would definitely complain impatiently, Shi En’s face was full of gratitude as he said: “Alright, I will go over there, it will only be a short period of time.”
After saying that, his movements became awkward, but his speed was not slow at all, as though he was running away. Shang Qian shook his head, and laughed as he said softly: “I told you not to drink too much water since long ago.”
Shi En went to the concealed place and immediately untied his belt, and took out the work he had prepared. A warm feeling rushed out of his dantian, then flowed out of his body from his crotch, and it was real, moving like a dragon spitting fireball or a turtle spitting water. When he felt a burst of comfort and finished shaking his body, he lowered his head to discover that he was actually at the entrance of a spring that had been frozen solid.
However, his magnificent feat just now had already turned into a pool of spring water.
After Shi En arranged his clothes, he left the spring. Unfortunately, just as he left, a figure appeared from another direction.
“Eh, I didn’t think that this spring wouldn’t freeze. It’s really amazing.”
The person who came was Elder Farmer, who had parted ways with Shi En and Su Yun halfway up the mountain. Elder Farmer contentedly held onto a handful of spring water and drank two big gulps of water to quench his thirst, he even took out a water bottle to fill the spring water in the mouth of the water bottle, which was mixed with Shi En’s excrement, and left.
In the end, the two of them decided to split up and search. Shang Qian gave Shi En a walkie-talkie and even installed a locating device on the walkie-talkie, if anyone found Shu Xiaoxiao and the others, they would call that person and use the locator to find the location of that person. In that case, no one would be afraid that someone would lose their way.
“Sister Shu, Xiaochang, did you hear that? Answer me if you hear me. ” Shang Qian shouted into his microphone as he opened his walkie-talkie to communicate with Shi En.
“White-haired Boy, Shi En is calling White-haired Boy. Please answer.
Suddenly, Shi En’s nervous call came out from the walkie-talkie, Shang Qian immediately picked up the walkie-talkie and said: “I am Shang Qian, I am Shang Qian, Brother Shi En, please speak.”
“White-haired Boy, I’ve found it!”
Hearing that, Shang Qian asked excitedly: “Brother Shi En, you found the Sister Shu and Xiaochang?”
“Not yet. Guess what I found and guessed that I gave you a ginseng I just found.”
“…” Shang Qian was a little speechless looking at the walkie-talkie. “Brother Shi En, you found the ginseng?”
“Yeah, there’s more than one. There’s a whole piece here, and it’s still quite big. It looks like it’s about to mature. Let’s not talk about that now, let me try and taste it first.”
Then, the walkie-talkie heard the sound of chewing. Shang Qian, on the side, was a bit puzzled, why is it that this ginseng that had just been unearthed was directly placed in his mouth and chewed? Is it hard? ”
“It can’t be. It’s a bit spicy, but the gravy is good enough. It’s pretty thirsty. I’ll bring two back for each of you to have a taste.”
“No need, Brother Shi En, I will go look for you. Since you found the ginseng, Sister Shu and Xiaochang should be nearby too, don’t wander around, wait for me to go over to your side first.”
After about fifteen minutes, he finally arrived at the location of the red dot on the display, and saw Shi En holding onto a thick, white, epidermis plant as he gnawed on it, “Brother Shi En, what you’re going to eat might not be what you told me on the walkie-talkie … Ginseng? ”
“Creak, creak, creak. Ah, White-haired Boy, you’ve come. You’re so slow, I’ve already taken two. Here, this is for you.”
Looking at the two “ginseng” that Shi En handed over, Shang Qian covered his face, and did not know whether to laugh or cry. He laughed bitterly: “Brother Shi En, this is actually not called ginseng.”
“Oh? “Then what’s its name? It’s very tasty, I think it can be used to make soup.”
“Ehh, this can indeed be used to make soup, ah, this is a white radish, Brother Shi En, you have never seen a ginseng before, you should have seen a white radish before right?”
What? A white radish?
Shi En was stunned. He did not even realise that the half of the “ginseng” in his hand had fallen onto the ground.
“Cough cough, Brother Shi En, although this white radish cannot be considered a medicine, it still has the effects of clearing away the heat and generating vital energy, cooling the blood, stopping the bleeding, being short and wide in breath, eating and removing stagnation, opening the stomach and strengthening the spleen, and dissipating the qi and phlegm, so you don’t have to be so disappointed.”
Shang Qian tried to comfort Shi En, but it was clear that the results weren’t very good.
said dejectedly: “You don’t have to comfort me, White-haired Boy, I still know how much a kilogram of carrots are in the market, and how much a hundred taels of ginseng is in the pharmacy. I guess I’ll forget about it, I will just continue to look for Shu Xiaoxiao and Zhu Xiaochang.”
“Eh, okay, then you be careful, Brother Shi En.” After Shang Qian saw this scene, he could not help but feel sympathy for him.
Shang Qian also continued to advance in another direction. After walking for around twenty minutes, he finally found a place to rest after perspiring profusely, he sat down on a large rock, picked up the kettle and drank a few mouthfuls of water. It was almost five o’clock, but it was still pitch black in the surroundings.
“Eh, Xiao Shangzi?”
