Why is my master always lost and swollen? !

Along that straight road, no matter whether you are going forward or back, you will always go back to the original place.So the three of them left the right path, brushed aside the miscellaneous trees on the right hand side, and waded into the forest.After walking for a while in the roadless woodland, the three of them came across a small river with fast flowing water.Then swim down the river and come to a field.As the dusk fell, there were large paddy fields and small villages scattered with about twenty families as far as the eye could see.

"Thank God, I finally found a place to stay." Liu Zian let out a sigh of relief.

Mr. Baohe knocked on the door of a certain farmer's house and explained the reason for living here.The three were taken to the village chief's house, where they planned to spend the night there.

The village head is an old woman in her seventies who lives alone in a spacious big house. She is hunched over, her face is full of dimples, but her eyes are very clear, like the water of a lake, which becomes clearer as time goes by.

"Thanks for taking care of me, I will stay with you for one night." After Mr. Baohe said, he bowed deeply to the old woman, and Liu Zian and Aning followed his example and lowered their heads.

"The journey is tiring, you don't need to be formal, just sit down wherever you want." The old woman said kindly while returning the courtesy.

She not only provided bedding for the three of them, but also treated them to a meal.Several of her grandchildren lived next door, and at mealtime they brought steamed white rice, pickled radishes and vegetable soup.

"Little girl, come to my room to make do with one night. The two brothers also rest earlier. You have been tired all day today." The old woman said.

Liu Zian nodded in agreement, but Mr. Baohe seemed to have suddenly remembered something, stopped the pen in his hand, and asked the old woman, "I want to ask you something. Have you ever heard of blue grass?"

"Blue grass, of course I've heard of it." The old lady smiled, "I've eaten it anyway."

"Is it this?" Liu Zian asked, taking out the bluegrass that was in the package earlier.

"Isn't that it? I didn't expect it to mature so early... Just take a look, but don't touch your mouth." The old woman asked.

Aning was a little strange, and asked, "Why can't you eat it? It's obviously delicious...and you said before that it's edible."

"Hahaha, it seems that you have already tasted it." The old lady laughed, "That thing is called 'Joke Grass', as the name suggests, its medicinal effect is the same as that of a joke..."

"Are you kidding me?" Liu Zian didn't know what to say.

"Yeah, everyone has different effects after eating it. Some people eat it, and their body hair will become extra strong, looking like a savage. Some people will become as big as a thumb, Of course, some people will become taller than trees. There are also young men who eat this joke grass and become big girls..." The old woman laughed as she talked, until she burst into tears.

"You guys still keep such a dangerous thing?" Ah Ning's eyes widened, feeling inconceivable.

Liu Zian and Mr. Baohe nodded in agreement.

"Don't worry too much, the joke grass is only ripe once a year, and its medicinal effect is only for 7 days." The old woman explained, "This is also a local tradition in our country. Every April Fool's Day, young people will take Joke grass to make a joke."

"What's the matter with 'April Fool's Day'? Could you please elaborate a little bit." Mr. Baohe seems to be very interested in this April Fool's Day, and it seems that he wants to write this into his "Book of Travels" to go.

"April Fool's Day is a unique festival here. No one knows the exact origin, but some customs have been handed down. For example, when the 'joke grass' matures, people will use the joke grass as raw materials to make various All kinds of snacks, and then give it to relatives and friends to eat. People who eat joke grass will get sick on April Fool's Day and turn into all kinds of strange looks, making people laugh."

"It sounds quite interesting. When is April Fool's Day?" Aning asked, his eyes sparkling.

"It's still half a month away." The old woman said, "This joke grass has matured much earlier than in previous years."

Mr. Baohe frowned slightly when he heard it, but didn't say much.After the old lady left, he said, "I'm afraid we won't be able to stay that long."

"That's right, isn't there only half a month left before the deadline for the manuscript?" Liu Zian yawned, as if it had nothing to do with him, "But it's not a big deal, listen to that April Fool's Day It's interesting, but who knows what weird things will happen then? It's better not to get involved."

"But... we have also taken a joke." Mr. Baohe murmured.However, at this time Liu Zian had already fallen asleep and could not hear his words.Mr. Baohe sighed, and continued to sort out the notes during this period, and did not fall asleep until late at night.

The next day, as the sun rose, Mr. Baohe and Liu Zi'an climbed out of the bed and began to prepare for the road.Ah Ning also made the bed and folded the quilt, washed his face and ate.After thanking the old woman, the three set off again.

"April Fool's Day... I really want to participate." Ah Ning has gone a long way, but still misses "April Fool's Day".

Liu Zian teased: "If you want to participate so much, go back. Why are you following us?"

"I'm following my husband, not you! Besides, maybe something more interesting will happen if I follow my husband." Aning rolled his eyes at him and said.

"Then you were wrong this time, Mr. is going back to hand in the manuscript." Liu Zian smiled, wanting to see Ah Ning look deflated.

Unexpectedly, Aning didn't think so, shrugged and said: "So what, it's not like the husband won't come out in the future... Anyway, following the husband, there will always be wonderful things happening. I'm looking forward to getting lost. "

"Is there anyone still looking forward to getting lost? This is the first time I have met you." Liu Zian sarcastically said.

Originally, his original intention was to provoke Aning, so that she would not follow them all the time.As a result, the words changed in the ears of Mr. Baohe.

"I don't want to get lost, but this kind of thing can't be overcome...I'm sorry for causing trouble to Mr. Liu." Mr. Baohe muttered, feeling a little frustrated.According to the owner of the bookstore, recently, many readers reported that following the route he described, they could not find the destination at all, or they found the destination but were told that the place no longer existed... Although the sales volume of the book is still very good, Even better than before, but many places put his books in the category of ghost stories or novels, not in the category of travel notes...

"Sir, what's the matter with you?" Ah Ning noticed that something was wrong with Mr. Baohe's state, and asked.

"It's nothing... just wondering if I'm really suitable to be a travel writer." Mr. Baohe smiled wryly.

These words should not have been said to fellow travelers, but at this moment, Mr. Baohe is eager to hear what others think of him.

"Sir, you have finally realized this. I told you a long time ago that you are not suitable for this job. People who write travel notes are always lost all day long. Wouldn't it be a joke to spread the word? You should change your career as soon as possible. .” Liu Zian persuaded.He really felt in his heart that Mr. Baohe was not suitable to be a travel writer. Subconsciously, he felt that people like Mr. Baohe should live a romantic life instead of living and sleeping all day long and running around for a living.

"What are you talking about!" Ah Ning slapped Liu Zian's head hard, and said, "Of course Mr. Baohe must become a travel writer, this is his destiny."

"Fate?" Mr. Baohe stopped and asked, "Why?"

Ah Ning felt that he had made a slip of the tongue, but under the gaze of Mr. Baohe, he had no choice but to explain, so he could only vaguely say: "This... Mr.'s travel notes are so well written, and he was born to eat this bowl of rice... It's not fate but What?"

"Is that so?" Mr. Baohe smiled lightly, knowing that this was not the truth, but he did not continue to press the question.After all, instead of getting an answer that you don't want, it's better to just live in chaos like this.

Ah Ning finally breathed a sigh of relief seeing that Mr. Baohe did not continue to dwell on this topic.

"Sir, will you still do this in the future?" Liu Zian asked recklessly.

Aning hurriedly covered his mouth, and whispered in his ear: "You bastard, shut up!"

However, Mr. Baohe still heard Liu Zian's words, and said with a smile: "So what if you don't do this job, I don't know anything else. Could it be that you drink the northwest wind?"

"I can support you, and I will never let you drink the northwest wind." Liu Zi said with peace of mind.He wanted to say something, but his mouth was tightly covered by Aning, and he could only make a "woo woo" sound of unknown meaning.

"It would be great if I could change it." Mr. Baohe said suddenly, "If it's possible, I hope I can be like Zian, who doesn't have to worry about anything and can be carefree all day long..."

"Mr. actually wants to become this bastard? If I can choose my own life again, I hope I can become Mr....Mr. must not know how good he is, so he wants to become someone else." Ah Ning said.

"My words... I hope to become Ah Ning." Seeing Ah Ning looking at him with a "smelly hooligan" expression, Liu Zian hurriedly explained, "Don't get me wrong, I just want to know how to look like people are all animals. What an experience."

When saying this, I'm afraid the three of them didn't realize that one day their dreams would come true.
