Way of Heaven Chapter 57: Aoki
As the sun rises, a mountain range stretching dozens of miles in the northeast land is shrouded in faint clouds and mist. Under the light golden brilliance, it looks extraordinarily beautiful.
At the foot of a mountain peak of several hundred meters on the edge of the mountain, there is a small mountain village called Qingshan Village. There are only more than 20 families in Qingshan Village. They have lived here for generations for hundreds of years.
This is the territory of the Tianwen Dynasty of the Tianwen tribe.
Several five or six-year-old Tianwen children played innocently in the village. The crisp and cheerful voices resounded through Qingshan Village, and people couldn't help but rejoice.
咣 When a slight door opened sounded, a dilapidated thatched hut not far from the children walked out of a Tianwen tribe teenager who was about eleven or twelve years old.
When the playful child saw the boy approaching, there was a trace of fear on his face, and his figure was also far away from the boy.
The young man couldn't help but smiled bitterly when he saw this scene, but in a blink of an eye, he adjusted his mentality and walked out of the village. This situation has long been accustomed to him.
The reason why those children fear the teenager is because of the appearance of the teenager.
As a member of the Tianwen tribe, when each tribe is born, there will be a beautiful line all over the body, and the lines on different people have different colors.
But this young man is different from the general Tianwen tribe. The lines on his body are divided by the center of the body. The left is the cyan line, and the right is the red line. On the forehead and brow, the cyan and red lines merge together to form a A flame-shaped imprint the size of a fingernail, blue on the outside and red on the inside.
The lines of the two colors appearing strangely on the same person, without any sense of contradiction, and the flame mark, which has never been heard in hundreds of years, so since the boy was born, he has been taken by Qingshan Village. The other villagers in the village are regarded as freaks and unknown people. Young children and their peers are also afraid of the appearance of a teenager and do not play with him. This makes the teenager's heart mature a lot.
The young man shook his head, his eyes were firm, and he said in his heart: "Mother is infected with wind and cold and is lying in bed. The main thing I have now is to find a red ginseng to treat my mother's disease."
Thinking of this, the teenager no longer pays attention to the fearful gaze of the child on the side, like looking at a freak.
The mountain range is big or small, and it stretches for dozens of miles in the vast Metaverse continent. It is just a drop in the ocean. For Qingshan Village, where the teenager is located, the mountain range is huge. Many villagers I have never left the range of this mountain range for decades.
The young man is able to run the strength of the first stage of the physical body in his body. After an hour of driving, he has already left the small mountain village, entered the dense mountain range, and headed for the depths, looking for the traces of the red ginseng here.
While carefully observing whether there are signs of beasts in the surroundings, the young man carefully checked whether there were any elixir on the ground, bushes, and towering trees. Although he was mainly picking red ginseng to treat his mother’s disease, But it is also very good to be able to find other elixir.
沙沙沙.
Suddenly, a sound of crossing the jungle reached the young man’s ears. With a movement in the young man’s heart, his body immediately rushed up to a towering tree next to him like a monkey, hiding his figure completely in the dense foliage. The exposed pair of bright eyes looked in the direction of the sound.
There was a bush full of height separated there, and an old figure appeared in the young boy’s eyes. It was a white face with no wrinkles, and the skin was like a newborn baby’s ruddy white hair. Old man.
The white-haired old man carried a wooden box on his shoulders, his face looked amiable, and he had a temperament that made people involuntarily want to be close and trustworthy.
The young man's cautious heart couldn't help but relax a bit. At this time, the white-haired old man who was not far away was going to leave here, pausing his feet, his eyes narrowed slightly, and his sharp eyes suddenly looked at the place where the young man was hiding above.
The old man was filled with a frightening atmosphere, covering this area, as if he was about to shoot the boy’s hiding place into pieces in the next moment. At this moment, the pale boy hurriedly shouted, and his figure was also revealed. .
"Wait a minute, wait a minute, grandpa, I am also a member of the Tianwen tribe, don't make a move."
The white-haired old man saw the boy appear, his face was stunned, and then the horror that pervaded his body disappeared, returning to his former amiable appearance.
The white-haired old man looked at the young man in front of him who was different from the ordinary Tianwen tribe, his eyes did not change at all, and he was still gentle, giving people a sense of closeness and trust.
He asked gently: "My child, how can you appear in the depths of the mountain alone. Although this mountain is small, there are still many powerful beasts."
Hearing the gentle and caring words of the white-haired old man and the lack of strange eyes, the young man’s heart warmed up. For more than ten years, he has been regarded as a freak and unknown person by the villagers in the village, except for the white-haired old man. The only person besides his mother who cared about him and didn't regard him as a freak.
The young man hesitated for a moment and replied: "Grandpa, I came here to find the red ginseng to treat my mother’s wind and cold~IndoMTL.com~Red ginseng? Haha, my old man happened to have a red ginseng here. Child, meeting is fate. Since you need it, the old man will give it to you." The white-haired old man said with a smile.
The young man heard that his face was full of ecstasy. He hadn't found the red ginseng after searching this area for a long time. He was about to venture deeper into the mountains, but he never thought that the white-haired old man actually had red ginseng.
I saw the white-haired old man opening the wooden box he was carrying on his shoulders, and looking for a moment, a red ginseng that was as red as jade and exuded a faint medicinal fragrance appeared in his hands.
"Child, take this red ginseng."
Looking at the kind-looking white-haired old man, the young man gritted his teeth and took the red ginseng and put it in his arms.
Although he is proud of his heart and does not want to be favored by others, the red ginseng is related to his mother’s condition. If he goes to find the red ginseng by himself, he doesn’t know how long it will take, but the mother’s illness cannot be delayed, so the boy accepts The red ginseng of the white-haired old man.
The young man hugged the red ginseng tightly, and saw that the white-haired old man’s clothes were stained with a lot of dust. Obviously, the latter had been in the mountains for a long time, and the young man suddenly thought about it.
"Grandpa, the Qingshan Village where my home is located is not far from here. Why don't you stay at my home for a few days."
The white-haired old man looked at the look of the young man’s expectation, smiled freely, and said: "Also, the old man has been in this wilderness for a long time without seeing people."
"Then I will show you the way." With a smile on his face, the young man hurriedly led the way in front of the white-haired old man, and walked along the road back to the village based on the memory in his mind.
Along the way, the white-haired old man talked with the young man, "My child, what is your name."
"My name is Aoki, the green of the green hill, the wood of the trees."
