Chapter 283: Not Growing Up From the various words of Black Tiger Vine...
From what Black Tiger Vine said, it can be seen that those strange little birds should be quite powerful.
Ye Lu didn't want to agree at first, but Black Tiger Vine's reasons really convinced him. Those strange birds could help fight the enemy. The location of Ercheng Mountain was too coincidental. It was at the outermost part of the mountain range, closest to those strange creatures. It must be said that Black Tiger Vine's move helped Ye Lu and others relieve a lot of pressure.
The ghost scholar looked at Ye Lu, and he also thought of this.
Ye Lu pondered for a moment, then said, "You can take care of it for a while."
Ye Lu decided to take a step back. The Black Tiger Vine had done nothing wrong. It was rare for it to be willing to stay in the mountains. Ye Lu was willing to satisfy its little hobby.
"Good?!" Before Heihu Teng could be happy, Ye Lu's words came to him the next second.
"But----" Ye Lu paused, his tone drawn out.
"But what?" Black Tiger Vine was hooked.
"You have to promise me that you will restrain those birds, and then we can slowly increase the number of birds depending on the situation." Ye Lu said slowly, with a very serious attitude. The fact that he values the Black Tiger Vine does not mean that he does not value He Village. He just strikes a balance between the two sides.
What's more important is that Ye Lu didn't agree at first. Instead, the ghost scholar, who was the head of He Village, looked like he agreed and tried hard to convey it to Ye Lu through his eyes.
Ye Lu considered it again and again and finally chose to agree.
"That's good." The Black Tiger Vine agreed without hesitation. Seeing that Lord Chongshan was reluctant to agree, it knew that if he hesitated any longer, he might not even agree to this.
Ye Lu was helpless and sighed slowly. It seemed that the Black Tiger Vine also had a restless personality.
That's right, this world is weird? With this kind of attribute, what kind of weird plant is he expecting to have a good personality?
Black Tiger Vine's mood was even better. Apart from the fact that Lord Chongshan was too cautious and had a neutral attitude towards strange birds, Chongshan was a good person and it was happy to be there. Now it could even raise birds, so Black Tiger Vine's mood was even better.
Ye Lu and the Ghost Scholar left Ercheng Mountain, one in front and one behind. The Ghost Scholar followed Ye Lu slowly, still holding the two little rabbits in his hands. At present, the Ghost Scholar was not ready to put the two little rabbits back. They made a mistake. They would go down to He Village with him later. Along the way, the little rabbits struggled many times but could not escape from his hands.
"Ah Gui, why did you agree to Black Tiger Vine's proposal?" Halfway through the walk, Ye Lu frowned and asked the Ghost Scholar. That's right, Ye Lu chose to change his mind halfway, and a large part of it was because the Ghost Scholar agreed.
"The situation in He Village is getting better year by year, and the children's cultivation is much better than ours back then. But they are not yet old enough to join the guard team. If there really are some strange birds coming down the mountain, we can give them some training." The ghost scholar said his plan slowly.
"Even if these little birds don't come down the mountain, when the kids grow up a little, I will take them up the mountain to pair up with the strange birds." The ghost scholar said with a smile.
Ye Lu paused. Is he going to focus on capturing the little kids' strength again?
It has to be said that this reason successfully made Ye Lu hesitate.
Ye Lu might not agree to other things, but since it concerns the future of the children, Ye Lu has to consider it again and again. The resources in the Forbidden Stone Mountains must be much more than before, and there are naturally more dangers. It requires higher martial arts skills for the children. They dare not let the children get close to the weirdness in the back mountain, but this kind of semi-domesticated weirdness is not impossible.
"Do fourth uncle and the others agree as well?" Ye Lu chose not to express his opinion. He didn't know how to raise a child, so of course he would ask someone who knew how to do so.
"This matter was brought up by Fourth Uncle He." The ghost scholar blinked and said, "In the beginning, it was proposed that the guard team should capture as many living weirdos as possible and bring them back to the village for the children to practice. The guard team was also worried, because how could a weirdo be easy to capture? This would also reduce a lot of pressure on the guard team."
Ye Lu was completely defeated and said, "Since you all have your own ideas, I won't interfere. I will just take care of the kids more."
"Don't worry, Helan is watching nearby, nothing serious will happen." The ghost scholar waved his hand and walked towards the direction of He Village not far away. He still had a lot of things to do, so it was enough now that it was done.
Ye Lu watched the ghost scholar's back disappear into He Village, then turned around and climbed up the mountain.
Since the bird Axi returned to its ancestral home, it has not grown very fast, and it can even be said to be growing very slowly.
"Chirp..." Ye Lu sat behind the stone table, looking at the beautiful scenery of the mountains leisurely, with the lively and crisp sound of birds singing beside his ears, which meant, so boring, can it fight?
Ye Lu: “…” Where can he go to fight with it? Find a similar birdie to fight with. It has become a birdie ball. Can you be more obedient?
The Golden-Winged Roc's bloodline loves fighting, is it engraved in their bones?
Ye Lu turned his head speechlessly and slowly put down the teacup. As soon as he turned his head, he saw the little bird A Xi lying on the stone table. The chirping sound just now was made by it.
Ye Lu looked at it for a moment, then reached out and pinched the furry red ball, feeling its extremely delicate and fleshy touch, as well as the touch of a frightened bird flapping its little wings desperately, and then he withdrew his hand without changing his expression.
Who did the little bird think it was? As soon as he saw it was Ye Lu, he stopped struggling and looked at the culprit speechlessly: ".......Chirp." So childish, he is so old and still plays this trick.
Ye Lu ignored Ah Xi's eyes, twisted his fingers, and said calmly: "Ah Xi, have you not grown up yet?"
The feel is about the same as before, and almost ten days have passed.
Ah Xi the bird turned and became confused: "Chirp?" It seemed to be true.
The little bird Ah Xi has been having a great time these days. In the past, it was not allowed to stick too close to the Taoist priest. If it stuck around for too long, the Taoist priest would tell it to go away. But now Brother Lu is unwilling to let it go. He takes it with him when he eats, practices, and sleeps. Isn't it just to make it happy?
Now when Ye Lu asked, Ah Xi the bird woke up from this happy life, and its mind took the upper hand again. It said hesitantly, "Chirp!" It was true that it had not grown up for a while.
Ye Lu frowned imperceptibly. The Ximing people were just regressing to their ancestral state, not really returning to their childhood. Logically speaking, their growth rate should be very fast, and it is impossible for them not to grow for several days in a row.
"Come here, let me see." Ye Lu stretched out his hand and motioned A Xi the bird to come up.
After Ah Xi's bird really came up, Ye Lu stopped. He closed his eyes and felt it for a moment, then he breathed a sigh of relief. Everything was normal, there was no problem with his blood, the only thing was that it was too calm.
Ye Lu's mind was filled with thoughts. He paused and said, "I can't see any problem for the time being. Is there something you are still missing? Weird food?" Ye Lu guessed.
Ye Lu was inclined to believe that his guess was correct. Indeed, after the Ximing people successfully returned to their ancestral state, they ate very little strange food. This might really be the reason.
"Wait until Zhu Hui and his caravan come over next time." Ye Lu thought for a moment and came up with a solution, and said, "See what they can do." There are a lot of strange foods in the mountains, but most of them are not something that Ah Xi bird can eat now. Ye Lu wants to change to some more professional and suitable strange foods.
"Chirp~" The little bird Ah Xi lay in Lu Ge's hand, chirping lazily.
He actually felt that this was not bad. Although his strength was not as strong as when he was an adult, his mind was much clearer than it was then. He could still play with Brother Lu, so there was nothing wrong with it.
"You can't do this? Fight." Ye Lu said lightly.
"Chirp!" The bird's cry suddenly became serious. The matter cannot be delayed! !
Ye Lu laughed in his heart, you little bird, I can’t cure you.
That being said, it will take some time for the caravan to arrive. It is only summer now and many strange plants are still growing. The caravan will not reach Chongshan until the end of summer at the latest, which means there is still more than a month left.
The Ximing people were in good condition at the moment, so Ye Lu didn't plan to urge Zhu Hui and the others to speed up.
Of course, in the next few days, Ye Lu still fed some strange food to the Ximing people. It didn’t matter whether they ate it or not. It would help replenish more strange power as much as possible and make the little bird happy. But they couldn’t fly out to fight.
The years pass slowly in the mountains.
While Ye Lu was taking care of Ah Xi bird, he remembered this scene very well. If he wanted to see such a scene again in the future, it would only be in his memory.
On the mountain, an unexpected guest arrived.
Ye Lu was practicing with his eyes closed, absorbing and exhaling strange energy, and his hands on his knees. After circulating the energy several times, he slowly opened his eyes and looked towards the hillside where he saw a figure.
"!" When Ye Lu saw the true face of the person who came, he was subconsciously shocked. He didn't expect it to be the other party.
The visitor smiled playfully and looked at Ye Lu with satisfaction.
"Seventh Uncle?" Ye Lu called out the man's identity, his tone unable to conceal his happiness, and said: "How come you have time to go up the mountain today?" Ye Lu stood up, watched Uncle He Seventh take a seat, and poured tea for his uncle.
After arriving at Jinshi Mountains from He Village, He Qishu Uncle came to help his nephew. After everything was on track, He Qishu Uncle reduced the number of times he went up the mountain. In the later period, He Sishu Uncle went up the mountain more often than him.
Unless Ye Lu goes down the mountain to find him.
Ye Lu didn't have much time either, so he could only take time out to visit him, but he was busy most of the time.
Uncle He Qi leisurely picked up the tea poured by his nephew and took a sip. Hmm, it tasted similar to the one at home. Lu Wazi also sent a portion of the same tea to the He family.
"You have taken good care of the plants on the mountain." Uncle He Qi's talent lies in the strange plants. He thought that since it was a rare trip to the mountain, he would help his nephew look at the strange plants on the mountain.
Unexpectedly, the result was beyond his expectations. The condition of the strange plants on the entire mountain was very good. He had not checked the other two mountains yet, but they should be similar.
Uncle He Qi was even more satisfied.
Ye Lu was praised by his respected elders. Even though he was always steady, he couldn't help but smile and said modestly: "No, no, it's all the work of the medicine rabbits."
"Don't be modest. I can see that you have also made contributions." Uncle He Qi waved his hand and said bluntly.
The uncle and nephew exchanged a few polite words.
Then the two of them made eye contact.
Ye Lu narrowed his eyes and looked at his seventh uncle without saying a word. Something was wrong. When did his seventh uncle become so polite?
Uncle He Qi felt guilty when he was looked at, and his eyes couldn't help but wander. Lu Wazi was too perceptive.
"Seventh Uncle, you didn't do anything wrong, did you?" Ye Lu spoke very cautiously. To be honest, he and Seventh Uncle hit it off immediately, and their uncle-nephew relationship was indestructible.
The premise is that my fourth uncle cannot be involved.
Ye Lu had not learned his lesson before. When Uncle He Qi got into trouble, he helped to cover it up. Uncle He Si directly treated him as an accomplice and taught him a lot of lessons.
Uncle He Seventh behaved out of character, and past memories came flooding back to Ye Lu's mind. He had to be cautious, wondering if his Uncle Seventh was trying to trick him again.
"Did you offend your fourth uncle?"
"What are you talking about?!" Uncle He Qi held on for a breath and said stubbornly: "How did I offend my brother?!" What are you talking about? What are you talking about? It has been a long time since he made his brother angry!
Uncle He Qi looked at the suspicious look of his nephew opposite him and almost got angry and turned around and left.
Seeing that there was really no problem, Ye Lu quickly gave in and said, "Okay? Okay? Okay? It's my fault. My nephew misunderstood."
"Uncle Seventh, don't be angry." Ye Lu soothed him in a gentle voice.
Uncle He Qi then returned to his original leisurely look and coughed in a serious manner.
Ye Lu paused, a smile in his eyes. His seventh uncle really had a good personality, just like he had in the past. Although he didn't know what his seventh uncle had been busy with in recent years, and he refused to tell him when asked, Ye Lu always doted on his uncle and secretly gave him gifts.
"But I do have something to talk to you about." Uncle He Qi took a sip of tea, put down the teacup, hesitated for a while, and said.
