Chapter 212 The Strange Peach Forest
Huang Fu acted very quickly. After receiving a deposit of fifty oceans with Uncle Wang, he hurried home and told his wife and children some things, and then came to the Yin Yang Medical Center to meet Henry Zhang.

When going out this time, Henry Zhang did not take the crazy old man with him. Although he is a villager, he is always crazy. Taking him there may not be helpful, let alone he is five or sixty years old. Very inconvenient.

So Henry Zhang asked Ren Tingting and Uncle Wang to take care of the crazy old man, and then he and Huang Fu hurried to Fengxia Village.

Fengxia Village has high mountains and far roads. According to Huang Fu, the roads in that place are too small, and it is really difficult to drive a car, so the two had to go on foot. Fortunately, one is a salesman and the other is a cultivation base. It's not slow to get up.

The two of them are dressed as literati, and the other shoulders the goods and still does the business of the salesman. This outfit was requested by Henry Zhang. After all, no one knows what is going on in this village. If you go there for no reason, people may not believe you let it go. You stay here, after all, there are many people who rob villages these days.

The two walked for a day and a night, and spent the night in this small village along the way. Huang Fu gradually relaxed, and he really regarded himself as a shopkeeper, and peddled for a while in the village where he stayed overnight.

Now that the two were walking on the road, they chatted, and Henry Zhang asked: "Brother Huang, you sell enough things here, and you have everything."

Henry Zhang glanced at it before, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, and needlework were all available, and he saw some Western gadgets faintly. Huang Fu smiled and said: "Remote villages lack everything, and bring a little of everything. The business is really good. Easy to do."

Henry Zhang nodded, this is true, but he remembered that when he glanced at yesterday, he seemed to see some paintings in the box of Huang Fu's goods, and he couldn't help laughing when he chatted: "Brother Huang, I saw that there seemed to be some paintings in your basket yesterday." Painting scrolls, could it be that this mountain village can’t buy paintings?”

Huang Fu said: "Ha, Mr. Zhang is joking, I dare not sell those two pictures, they are the statues I invited to protect myself."

"Oh, what idol?"

Huang Fu was a little embarrassed, and said, "Second Master Guan and the God of Wealth."

Henry Zhang smiled knowingly when he heard this, but this is the God of Wealth and the God of Wealth.

Just as he was about to continue chatting, Huang Fu suddenly pointed to a mountain in front of him and said, "Look, Mr. Zhang, there is Xiaotao Mountain in front of you. Once you go up that mountain, you will find Fengxia Village in the depths of the peach forest."

Henry Zhang took a look, the hill was not high, but it was full of peach trees with sparse branches and twisted branches, which looked like dead branches, standing one by one looked very weird from a distance, no wonder the peach trees on this mountain No one cares.

When the two of them saw this little Peach Mountain, they couldn't help speeding up their pace. Although this meeting was only in the morning, there was a saying that was true, that is Wangshan ran a dead horse.

The two rushed over quickly, but when they reached the foot of Xiaotao Mountain, the sun had already started to set.

Huang Fu looked at the sky, and said to Henry Zhang; "Master Zhang, we have to hurry, otherwise it will be difficult to find Fengxia Village when it gets dark." "

Henry Zhang nodded and said: “Let’s lead the way ahead.”

After he finished speaking, he couldn't help but look at this peach grove composed of strange peach trees. It has not bloomed, and the branches and leaves are very sparse. There are only twisted branches stretching out like hands. It is really a bit strange. weird.

The peach tree is originally a spiritual tree for exorcising evil spirits. The peach blossoms are warm in color and the peach branches are enchanting. They can make people feel comfortable when they look at them, but this peach forest makes people feel faintly depressed and uncomfortable to look at. , it was faintly dark in the depths of the peach forest, with a sense of uncertainty about the future.

It's no wonder why Huang Fu was so impatient. After all, he was flustered and didn't dare to wait for long.

However, this person was afraid of something. He wanted to go through the peach forest quickly and find Fengxia Village in the mountain, but before he knew it, when the sun was about to set, the two of them hadn't gone out yet. .

In Henry Zhang’s heart, he couldn’t help becoming vigilant. If it is said that the peach forest is difficult to walk, that’s for sure. The branches stretch out randomly, and they look similar, and it is easy to go wrong.But with all his concentration, he still managed to catch the Tao unknowingly, maybe it has something to do with the gradually rising fog.

Henry Zhang asked: "Brother Huang, was there such a big fog last time you came?"

Huang Fu looked a little anxious, he said: "No, last time I arrived at noon, there is no fog in this big sun, but I also turned around several times before I found it."

The inquiry was fruitless. Seeing that the sun was about to set, Henry Zhang had no choice but to release the Gu worms to explore the way. Who knew that the Gu worms had not been released yet, and suddenly the sound of "tapping" footsteps came from the forest in front of him.

The two searched for their reputation, and saw a hunched white-headed old man walking out from the depths of the peach grove, with bags under his eyes and wrinkles on his face, probably 70 years old.

Before the person arrived, the voice came first. His voice was low, and he could even be said to be a little depressed. He asked, "Who are the two over there? go?"

Henry Zhang stopped the action of releasing Gu worms, looked at the old man, and echoed: "A student and a salesman lost their way in this forest."

The old man stopped for a while after hearing what Henry Zhang said, as if he was looking at the two of them, and when he saw Huang Fu who was carrying the burden, he said: "Sellers are rare these days, but students have never seen them. "

He said and walked in front of the two of them, about three steps away, he looked up at Henry Zhang carefully, unable to tell whether it was a curious look or a strange look.

Henry Zhang replied with a smile: "I also heard that Brother Huang, who sells goods, said that there is a peach forest here, so I wanted to come and have a look, but I didn't expect it to be like this."

Henry Zhang pretended to be very similar with a wry smile. This excuse was agreed with Huang Fu.

Huang Fu chimed in and said, "Hmph, these young people are stubborn asses. I've already said that there's nothing to see if the peach grove doesn't bloom. You just have to dare to come here."

The old man smiled coldly, "Hey, to enjoy the flowers, the ghost peach grove is just about the same. If it doesn't bear fruit or bloom, it's useless to occupy this mountain. Younger, you know you're wrong now."

Henry Zhangdao: "Seeing is believing, but old man, do you know where this Fengxia Village is? Brother Huang said that he can only stay there for one night tonight."

The old man glanced at Huang Fu, and then said: "Oh, you know that there is a Fengxia Village in Xiaotao Mountain."

Huang Fu smiled and said: "Old man, I don't recognize me anymore, I was here to sell goods half a year ago."

"Oh, is that so? I can't remember it clearly. I won't remember it after living for a long time."

The old man shook his head as he spoke, and then said: "Come on, the forest is difficult to walk, and it is easy to be charming. At night, people from our village dare not come in. You two should follow closely."

Henry Zhang and Huang Fu followed the old man, turned left and right in the peach forest, and walked forward for about a few hundred meters. They didn't see any marks made by the old man, and walked out of the peach forest easily.

A village suddenly appeared in front of the three of them. There were hundreds of households. People in twos and threes stood in front of the door and behind the house, finishing their day's work. ,washbasin.

In short, this small village will look peaceful at dusk, with smoke from the kitchen.
