Chapter Twelve Yuruyi
Chapter 12 Jade Ruyi()
After finally waiting until the weather cleared up, Le Lang picked up his hoe and walked up the mountain. He hadn't taken a good look at the mountain even after coming back for so long. The bananas, bamboo shoots and other things that his grandfather had grown before were probably almost abandoned.
Over the years, the trees on the mountain have become denser. Next to it, a stream swayes downwards, and the fresh and natural atmosphere is wafting in the mountain air.
When I came to my homeland, I saw that the banana field was already overgrown with weeds, which were almost as tall as a person. Some of the bananas had died and fell on the ground, and some had just sprouted, and there were still water drops on the leaves. Only some
Millet bananas are growing well. They have not been cleaned for many years and have grown into clumps. The ground is not only overgrown with weeds, but also some trees growing in it. Some have even grown into big trees with thick legs. Lelangjia
The bananas are all of relatively common varieties, but occasionally some millet bananas are planted. Millet bananas, as the name suggests, are very small, no more than a finger long, but very plump, soft and waxy in the mouth, and can be used as medicine.
"No way..." Le Lang glanced around and saw a few banana trees in the banana field. They were very strong, five or six meters high, and could be held by one person. There were bunches of bananas hanging from the trees.
The bunch of bananas was almost two meters long, and each banana was as thick as an arm. Each one seemed to weigh about a pound or two. Looking at these bananas, Le Lang was stunned. Can these be eaten? What?
What the hell? He has never heard of such a banana since he was a child. Can it still be called a banana?
Shaking his head, Le Lang tried his best to stop thinking about this strange banana. Looking at the dark weeds in this banana field, he couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart. It seemed that he was busy again this time. At the moment
Working hard. The weather was still cool. Lelang used a hoe and a hatchet at the same time, and a piece of weeds was removed in one go.
There was a "click" sound. Lelang was working hard to weed weeds. He didn't know what he was picking up, but he made a "click" sound. He thought it was a stone and didn't care much. He went down with the hoe again and brought up the weeds.
A piece of soil, and suddenly, I saw a white light flashing through the soil.
"Hey, this is..." He dug open the soil curiously, only to see a snow-white jade Ruyi wrapped in the soil. He didn't know if he had just hoeed it, so there was an agate-like stripe in the middle of the jade Ruyi.
Macula.
He picked up the jade Ruyi and washed it carefully in the ditch next to it, wiped it clean with his clothes, and held it in his hand. The snow-white Ruyi shone in the sun, and it was warm, smooth and delicate. There were carvings on the head of the jade Ruyi.
The word "Ruyi" is faintly visible on the cloud pattern. The jade Ruyi is engraved with inexplicable and mysterious lines all over its body, and there is a golden tassel tied at the end of the handle.
Le Lang gently stroked Yu Ruyi with his hand. His whole body was smooth, as soft and delicate as virgin skin. Suddenly, his finger was pricked with a wound for some reason, and blood flowed out. Unintentionally, a drop of blood fell from his hand to Yu Ruyi.
On the road, accidents happened one after another, and a dazzling light emitted from the jade Ruyi. Lelang closed his eyes subconsciously, but the light disappeared instantly, and he was in a trance, really mysterious and unpredictable.
After the light passed, Le Lang slowly opened his eyes, only to find that there was nothing in his hands. He couldn't help but be surprised.
"This...this...this..."
Jade Ruyixiu came and went suddenly, and Lelang was happy and lost. He was extremely depressed for a while. The treasure he had clearly got suddenly disappeared. Everyone would feel this way, but fortunately, at least he had touched it.
After calming down, Le Lang started hoeing again. Alas, he just didn't have the chance to make a fortune, he thought in his heart. Didn't novels always say that those pig's feet would get some kind of treasure as soon as they appeared on the scene, and they could wave to the gods casually? Ordinary sisters would lean on each other desperately, and even stepping on a pile of dog shit could turn it into gold. Why didn't he have that fate? Lelang thought in annoyance, and the more he thought about it, the more depressed he became. The hoe in his hand used to hoe the ground once. Comparing strength and cruelty every time, it seems that even if any golden treasure appears now, it will be smashed by his hoe.
After hoeing all morning, Lelang sadly discovered that he had only hoeed a small piece of grass so far, and there was still a large piece of grass left. This did not include the bamboos and green bamboos behind. When will this day come to an end? .
In addition to the three acres of land in the old house, Grandpa Lelang's land consists of a large area of hillside land here. These were cleared by his grandfather before, and his grandfather's fertile land was divided between his two sons. These hillside lands The ground has not been planted for several years, and the ground is as hard as stone, with a pit forming in one fell swoop.
The bananas on one of the big banana trees over there have turned yellow. I don’t know if the top bananas were eaten by mice or birds, leaving only an empty shell. So Le Lang cut off the bunch of bananas. , because he didn’t bring a knife to cut bananas when he came, he had to use a hoe to hoe, which was very laborious. He was careful when hoeing, mainly because the banana tree was too tall. If he accidentally hit it, he would definitely be hit. It's bearable, and it's difficult to wash off the banana tree sap once it's on your body. Although the clothes on your body are for work, you still have to wash them yourself. It's better to be careful if you can. Although he bought a washing machine for convenience. I came back, but this washing machine is obviously not as good as the one on TV. Lelang bought it and tried it once. After washing it, there were still stains where there should be stains. It was obviously useless. In the end, I had to use my own hands. Just wipe it clean. Obviously this washing machine is not suitable for rural soil and water, it is only suitable for washing dust in cities.
Lelang put the banana on his back. As soon as he put it on his back, he couldn't help but cursed bitterly: "You banana guava." This banana weighed at least four to five hundred kilograms and almost crushed him. If it hadn't been in recent years, I have built up a good body by wandering around, now I have to have some fun.
Le Lang slowly carried the bananas home, even leaving the hoe on the ground. As soon as he arrived at the door, he saw Sanlang rushing out. It turned out that he had been sitting in the front yard waiting for Le Lang.
"Don't come here, be careful of getting your clothes." Seeing Sanlang coming, Le Lang said quickly.
"Yeah, yeah." Sanlang nodded hurriedly, but his eyes were entirely focused on the huge banana on Le Lang's shoulder.
Lelang put the bananas in the house. After cutting the big bunch of bananas from the tree, they had to be divided into pens, then placed on the ground to dry the water, then placed in a large water tank or sealed in a large plastic bag, and then It will ripen automatically after a few days. If you want it to be faster, you can also add some apples or pick some cattail leaves from the mountain, which will make it ripe faster.
"Uncle Alang, is this a banana?" Sanlang looked at the banana and asked curiously. He had eaten a lot of bananas, but he had never seen one so big.
"Of course, my uncle picked this on the mountain?" Le Lang said to Saburo a little showily.
"Is there such a big banana on the mountain? Then I will go up to see it in the afternoon. Uncle Alang, I will also go to the mountain in the afternoon." Sanlang stayed at home playing with the puppy all morning, and now he heard that there are good things on the mountain.
, his eyes immediately shone, and he shouted to go.
