Travel through Sand Sculpture Snow Tea Plane Wandering Records

Chapter 15
Smoke rose again from the shore, and the number of people eating became six.

The girl named Ah Yan helped Ah Xue pack up her belongings.The bedding they stole was returned to the ship.There are two more bags of rice.It was put on by Chacha.

The youngest child sat on the bow of the boat, watching everyone going about their business, and burst into laughter like silver bells.The two teenagers chopped firewood and started a fire according to Chacha's method. Their faces were heavily blackened by smoke.

"The firewood will turn into charcoal if it doesn't burn completely." Chacha explained, "Take the charcoal to the city and sell it for money."

"Oh." The young man nodded half understanding.His face was scratched by Chacha, and his body was poked several holes by her. The way he looked at Chacha was like seeing a man-eating black bear.She obviously looks similar to Ah Yan, yet she is so fierce.Fortunately, all his wounds were flesh and blood, and no vital organs were stabbed, so he could barely recover after a while of recuperation.

"Don't steal anything from now on." Chacha's eldest brother, who was looking at the group of people, warned solemnly, "I'm lucky that I only hurt my leg this time, and it's not life-threatening. I'll have a chance to walk again after being stuck on crutches for a few months."

"I know." The young man replied before his brother.

"The boat will take you off too. Anyway, Axue and I don't need to get seasick." Chacha continued with a blank expression.

These guys accidentally burned the map that the young master gave her, even if they had a boat, it was useless.Chacha rarely received gifts from others, and only took out that map twice to look at it.Burned suddenly, even if she has an amazing memory, it is useless.If I had known earlier, I should have taken a backup on my phone.

"You want to leave?" Ayan felt reluctant to leave, "Aren't you coming with us?" These two strange sisters beat them to death just yesterday, but now they are sending money and ships.

"You keep walking along the river and you will reach a safe place." Chacha said.There shouldn't be any fighting there anytime soon, "It's best to find a doctor to take a good look at it. Don't leave any sequelae."

Axue and Chacha explained some precautions to them, and the four of them boarded the boat, stood at the bow and waved goodbye to them gratefully.

"You are really willing to give them the boat." A Xue teased, "That's a lot of money."

"They are children, but we are adults." Chacha said proudly, "We have a better chance of winning in this world." Taking out the camera, another photo clicked.Chacha turned around in satisfaction, "Let's go on the road too."

"Yeah." Ashue echoed.

Without a map, the two walked through the mountains and forests by feeling.

With previous experience, climbing and walking are much easier.Because of the cover of the mountains and forests, they can even release the stars as they like, and sleep beautifully at night.

Chacha's body gradually became firmer, and the flesh on her face became elastic.There are many precious animals in the mountains, and Chacha was lucky enough to meet the legendary golden monkey, which is cute and soft, with bright fur and extremely beautiful.I kept taking pictures until the camera ran out of battery, and then reluctantly left.

After leaving the mountain forest, the two embarked on the official road that they hadn't traveled for a long time.

There are more and more forked intersections, and at each intersection, Chacha strongly asks Axue for divination.It's not that I really believe in anything, but I just think that the way Axue arranges divination and divination is very handsome.These are not seen in the original world.

Later, Ah Xue got annoyed, so she simply tossed a coin to ask for directions, with the front on the left and the back on the right, randomly deciding the next direction to go.

On the fourth day after being separated from Ah Yan and the others, a huge lake appeared in front of him, reflecting green grass and green mountains like a bright mirror.The breeze blows, the water ripples, and every breath makes the mind calm and indifferent.

Of course, the happiest thing is that there are many wild pearl oysters lying sporadically by the lake, shining dark green under the sunlight.Chacha swam in the water with her bare feet, excitedly picking up a lot.Can't wait to pry open their scalloped crust.

Chacha hummed a little tune and chopped a pile of firewood, then set up a pot and boiled a large pot of boiling water.Then put all the pearl oysters into the water and count the seconds until they open their shells.

A few minutes later, the pearl oyster opened its mouth in pain, revealing the white and tender mussel meat.A strong stench spread along the wind, and Axue quickly backed away, standing far away.She even gave up the idea of ​​frying clams later.

Chacha took out the knife from Xingcha and opened all the pearl mussels one by one.

No.Not shaped.There are more than a dozen of them, all of which are leftover particles.But Chacha didn't give up, instead she became more proficient at opening the shell.

"Don't boil it." Axue couldn't help reminding, "The pearls produced in this way will affect the quality of the pearls."

"That's right." Chacha suddenly realized, "Fortunately, I didn't get a good one. Otherwise, it would be a big loss. Axue, stay away from me. I'm going to give birth to pearl oysters now." After finishing speaking, she continued to stand up, curled up He rolled up his sleeves and looked like he was doing a big job.

Ashue pinched her nose and walked away.She even felt that she didn't want to use the clam-opening knife again.

Chacha quickly picked apart the ligaments of the mussel shell, skillfully looking for pearls.

Really touched a round thing.When I cut it open, it was a full 15mm, and I happily handed it over to Ashe.A Xue also didn't care about Xuntian's smell, and gambled with Chacha on pearls.Whoever has big pearls will not wash the dishes at night.

The two of them worked hard until the sun went down before they were satisfied and opened the star.

Chacha was unlucky, so she was responsible for all the dishwashing work for the next three months.However, Pearl had gained a lot, and she was happy to accept it.

There are thirty big round and plump beads, and there are seventy or eighty small beads remaining.Some are white with a hint of rose red, and some are blue and black with metallic luster.Chacha looked at them like seeing golden coins.As for the pearl mussels that had been opened, Chacha didn't throw them away either. After repeated begging, Ah Xue finally agreed to cook them into dishes.

Chacha peeled and polished overnight to optimize the treatment of more than 100 pearls.After squinting her eyes for a while, after breakfast, she dragged Axue on the road.

There are also many palm-sized pearl mussels scattered on the shore of the lake, opening their mouths and bubbling leisurely.Chacha didn't move them, and it would be a little greedy to pry these molluscs open again.What she needs most now is to find a town with a thriving population as soon as possible, and exchange the treated pearls for real gold stones.

However, the more anxious you are, the more things go in the opposite direction.Even after driving for a week, there was no one in sight.Not even a market.

"We must be taking a detour." Chacha said impatiently, "I don't have a GPS, not even a map. Ancient times are really difficult." Of course, the reason why she looks so impatient is that she has been eating pearl clam meat for a week.There are no fresh wild vegetables to change the taste, and I almost vomit.

"Don't you know how to look at the stars?" Ashue said, "We will only walk in one direction next, and we will definitely meet people."

"Okay." Chacha said, "Let's follow Beidou." I felt a little uneasy in my heart, but was soon overwhelmed by the desire for money.If no beautiful jade has been dug up, it would be good to sell some pearls.

On the third day of traveling with Big Spoon, the two arrived outside a city.

The emerald green moat surrounds the city wall, and there is an endless stream of pedestrians at the gate of the city, with merchants driving in and out of the city from time to time.Selling pearls here should fetch a good price.But neither of them intends to enter the city in a hurry.Because they saw a Taoist temple on the hillside outside the city.

Ah Xue recalled that on the first day with Chacha Mianji, they made an appointment to go to an abandoned Taoist temple to shoot a feature film.

At that time, we chose remote mountains.On the one hand, it was because she was interested in Taoism, and on the other hand, she hoped that the gods in the Taoist temple would bless her to recover.But he didn't want to encounter a meteor falling, and as if arranged by fate, he entered Xingcha to start a plane journey.

And her wish, after traveling to another world, was actually half realized in a roundabout way.Her body has changed because of the plane travel, and she is no longer as weak as before.Now she can climb mountains for a long time with her luggage on her back.

"Let's take a photo." Chacha looked at the cloud-shrouded Taoist temple on the top of the mountain, full of emotion, "It's so strange, I traveled to this world, wearing ancient clothes every day, and didn't think about taking some photos."

"Yes." Ashue also nodded with emotion.There are obviously many scenic spots in the city, but they choose to be in remote barren mountains.After a tiring day without finding the Taoist temple, I was so fascinated that I didn’t give up and decided to continue looking the next day.Axue's expression was half-serious, and she joked: "Do you think we will encounter fireballs again?"

"No way." Chacha's complexion changed slightly, and she thought of a place.

A few words from "Shuowen Jiezi" came to her mind.

The emptiness of Chen Zhe Dahao, the place where he draws gossip, and the beginning of wood virtue. The ancient character "Chen" contains the shape and meaning of Yin and Yang in the eight trigrams, and meteorites are considered to be things that are too empty in the sky, and they have the auspiciousness of Yin and Yang when they fall to the ground.Could it be that it was named after a meteorite that fell in that place?
"What's wrong with you, Chacha?" Axue noticed the change in Chacha's expression.

"There seems to be a place where there is a possibility of a meteor falling." Chacha replied honestly, "but that should have happened earlier."

"Well, let's go hiking tomorrow morning. Maybe we can find out."
