Dow and Carbon-Based Monkey Breeding Guidelines

Chapter 273

In the morning of the next day, while Jing Shi was still asleep, he heard continuous bangs and bangs outside, which was extremely noisy.He didn't wash up last night, he just put his clothes on and lay down. When he woke up now, he just held up the hair scarf and got up to open the door.

There were three people standing outside the door.The one at the head is the Gu'er Bowl, and there are two Yan Xun people behind him. Judging from the appearance of their clothes, they are vaguely peach blossoms.The two hid behind Gu'erwan, their faces were still cheerful, and they kept biting each other's ears, not knowing what kind of private things they could talk about endlessly.Seeing Jing Shi's gaze at this moment, they immediately yelled in unison, turned around and fled into the distance.

Jing Shi watched the two brothers run away, not knowing how to react, so he turned his eyes to Gu'er Wan.Gu'er Wan snorted and said, "The two little things are ignorant, what is there to be afraid of?" He threw a flower stick and said, "Is it convenient for the new official today? I will lead you to the old man of the waste boat." Go around and let everyone know each other."

Yesterday Jing Shi talked with Huo Zhou, and it is known that there are two other village gathering points on this island, and other important places such as water sources, fields, and pastures are also scattered along the edge of the island.At this moment, as soon as he was invited by the bone bowl, he immediately nodded and said: "I have nothing to do today, so let's go."

Gu'erwan was happy when he heard the words, and suddenly looked at Jing Shi and said, "Xinguaner, I heard that people on land are the most troublesome. They put on a big air, but they are very clumsy and impatient. Now it seems , although you are a strange person, you are quite straightforward in doing things, and you are not troublesome."

Jing Shi didn't expect that he had become a "weird person" in the eyes of Guerwan when he just arrived here, and he didn't know whether to be happy or worried, so he nodded and said, "Have you seen other people from the inland before?"

Gu'er Wan said: "In the past, there were two or three big sacrifices. The old man Huozhou brought me into the city to do business. Occasionally, I saw a few big brats. But those people are less talkative and have a high temper. They are indifferent , only willing to talk to the priests. I think if everyone in Lu is like this, it would be boring, but luckily you, Xinguan, are fine."

Listening to what he said, Jing Shi knew that the Yanyi country was located on the coast, so there would be no common people coming and going.The "big air" mentioned by Gu'erwan, either officials from various countries came to make good friends with orders, or they could only be the monks from Qingdu in person, and they would not be relatives in vain.

While the two were talking, their feet didn't stop for a moment, and in a blink of an eye they left the narrow fence at the village boundary and walked towards the sparse forest to the east.After walking for a short time, I saw a huge tree in the center, the skin was as black as iron, covered with moss, and it was old for a long time.Iron cables are hung from the high branches, and more than a dozen iron rings are strung together to hang down to the ground, but the top is hidden deep in the leaf cover, so it is difficult to see what is going on inside.

Gu'erwan walked to the tree, jumped up, flitted up the iron chain, stepped on the iron ring with both feet, and swayed back and forth like a swing, shouting: "Old woman, the new official is here!"

Listening to his yelling, Jing Shi immediately thought of the medical official Shuihua he met yesterday.Sure enough, not long after Gu'er Wan yelled, he saw a thin monkey face protruding from the top branches shaking leaves.

Jing Shi originally had an excellent memory, but recently he saw some lucky people, at least hundreds of them, and he gradually discerned the details of their facial features.Now when he looked at the monkey face on the tree top, he immediately felt that his cheeks were a little skinny, his eyes were drooping and his nose was thin, it was Shuihua, the pharmacist who happened to meet yesterday, he cupped his hands and said: "Mr. Shuihua, sorry for bothering you."

Hearing the sound, the fluky man on the top of the tree poked his head, leaned the upper half of his body out of the crown of the tree, and looked at the grass rings on his clothes, it really was a splash of water.She ignored the bone bowl hanging on the rope, and said to Jing Shi, "Your Excellency, you are welcome. Do you have any orders for coming today?"

Jing Shi shook his head and said, "Today, I'm patrolling the island to find out the way, so I stopped by to say hello to Mr.

Gu'er Wan also interjected: "Old woman, Xinguaner and I are going to Dongquan later. If you have medicine, give it to me as soon as possible, and send it along with you."

Shuihua nodded slightly to Jingshi first, bowed her body as a salute, and then said coldly to the hanging bone bowl: "Pu'er, if you break another branch, you will have to build this house from scratch one by one. "

The Gu'er Bowl was dangling on the rope, but when he heard this, he immediately let go of his hands, turned back on the ground with a somersault, and said, "You're so long-winded, I just don't want to play anymore."

Shui Hua glanced at him, as if about to sigh, but in the end she just shook her head, and retracted her body behind Ye Gai.When I was young, the leaf clusters moved slightly, and a small cloth bag fell out of it.Gu'erwan stretched out his stick to pick it up, hooked the cloth bag on the head of the stick, shook it and said, "That's all?"

The voice of the water splashing on the tree said coldly: "Pingye gets three, and Qiaoxi green gets two. You won't give anything beside it, and you are not allowed to steal it."

Gu'erwan immediately raised his head and chest when he heard the words, and said loudly: "I haven't eaten it!"

Shui Hua snorted, then poked her head out and said to Jing Shi: "Recently, I have been busy with business, so I have no time to entertain you. I will see you again in the future. You are new to this place, and you don't know the water and soil. Do not eat wild fruits on the island, as they may be poisonous. If necessary , tell Gu Erwan to do it."

Jing Shi nodded and said, "I can save it."

Shuihua looked at him, and without saying a word, she turned her head and went back into the leaves.Seeing her like this, Jing Shi was about to walk away, but he heard two fist-sized red balls falling from the top of the tree with rustling sounds.Gu'erwan reacted very quickly, when he saw the red ball, he immediately jumped up high, took one with each hand, and held it in front of Jingshi.

Jing Shi took one and put it in his hand, only then did he realize that the red ball was some kind of melon and fruit.Its color is red and bright, just like a tomato, but with round stalks and a tasteless smell. I don't know what kind of fruit it is.While inspecting, the water splash on the tree probed again: "This is red eggplant. Although it is bright in color, it is actually non-toxic. You can eat it with peace of mind. I guess this kid is used to wild things, so he probably won't remember to offer food and water. You don't have to be polite, just eat it." Talk to him."

When Guerwan heard this, he immediately jumped on the ground non-stop, wanting to argue, but didn't seem to dare to talk back to Shui Hua, so he had to use his stick to poke the ground randomly.Jing Shi just ignored this, accepted Zhu Qi and said, "Thank you, Mr. Shuihua, for your concern."

Shuihua said: "Your Excellency, you are very polite." She retracted her body into the leaves and didn't hear the slightest sound.When Jing Shi was staring under the tree for a while, he lowered his head and patted the bone bowl: "Let's go, go to the Dongquan you just mentioned."

Gu'er Wan pointed at the tree house since the water splash disappeared, and made a gesture of swearing.However, he was full of posture, but he didn't make any sound from his throat, as if he was a mute singing an opera.He was enjoying his performance when he was slapped on the top of the head by Jing Shi. He was shocked and waved his stick and said, "Go, go. Don't stay in this unlucky place." After speaking, he stuffed the vermilion eggplant in his hand into his mouth, and then swaggered forward , continue to go east.

Jing Shi walked slowly behind him, took out the vermillion tomato and took a look, then peeled off the outer thin skin, and saw that the inner flesh was also bright red and juicy, the quality of peach and plum.

He had just peeled off three pieces of skin, and the skull bowl in front of him had already chewed the fruit in his mouth clean. When he turned around and saw the slow work in his hand, he couldn't help but roll his eyes in surprise, and turned around and said, "Xin Guaner, what's the matter with you?" The fruit skin doesn't hinder your mouth, so why are you tearing it?"

Jing Shi kept his hands on his hands, and said in his mouth: "I'm used to it." As soon as he finished speaking, he had already peeled off the vermilion eggplant in his hand, took a small bite, and felt that the fruit was soft and delicate, sweet and slightly sour, but it was considered a delicacy.Since he landed on the island yesterday, all he has been thinking about is the strangeness of the country, so that he didn't even touch a drop of water or rice, and he didn't realize it until the sweet syrup entered his throat at this moment, and he felt a bit hungry. .

Seeing that he was eating slowly, Gu'erwan scratched his ears and scratched his cheeks and said, "Xinguaner, I heard that you people in mainland China are very greedy and you have to eat three meals a day. But I brought you to meet people yesterday, and I didn't hear your voice, so I will eat it." Forgot about this matter. If you feel hungry next time, just say it directly, so that I won’t have to remember it.”

After eating the fruit in his hand, Jing Shi replied, "It's okay, I live alone, and I don't eat according to the time. How do you usually do?"

Gu'er Wan said: "I also live alone, and I eat when I'm hungry. Those little boys in the village don't learn how to do it well, and they insist on eating on time, which is too boring." After speaking, he suddenly jumped up, snatched the peel from Jing Shi's hand, Zhang took a look in his hand and saw that the skin had been peeled very neatly. It was divided into six petals from the top to the pedicle, which were even and smooth, as straight as a ruler to measure a knife cut. ?”

Jing Shi said: "It's not a magic spell, I was used to it when I was a child."

Gu'erwan played with the flap of skin in his hand for a while, then raised his hand to throw it away, but felt that it was rare and reluctant to part with it, after thinking about it, he simply put it on his head as a six-flowered hat , and said to Jing Shi: "The new official is so particular about what he eats. Could it be that he came from the emperor's house?"

Jing Shi watched him do all kinds of mischief, and only smiled lightly: "I think only the servants of the emperor's family learn this."

Gu'er Wan said: "Then it's fun to be a servant." He was still jumping up and down, he didn't take it seriously.Jing Shi watched his actions quietly behind him, and felt that even though he was a hundred years old, he still thought and acted like a naughty boy, not only him, but among the lucky people I have seen so far, except for the white-robed people in the city, the abandoned boat, and the water splash Waiting for an official to respond, the rest of the people behaved more and more out of character. It is not so much a country of small people as it is a country of urchins.It is really strange to think that such a land with no army and no king can survive for thousands of years.

The two chatted all the way, and they had walked three or four miles before they knew it.Walking to a depression, I saw that the water was clear and the reeds were green.There is a shallow stone pile in the middle of the depression, on which water waves bulge and gurgle out, as if a dark underground spring is gushing out, which is the so-called East Spring.

Yesterday Jing Shi talked with the official Fei Zhou, and asked about the source of water. He learned that there are three main sources of fresh water on the island, and the East Spring is especially clean. More than a hundred people live next to the water, forming a village.

Although Yanke people are good at enduring hunger and thirst, they are not like diamonds. They cherish the drinking springs very much, and only keep them for drinking, and they cannot be washed or polluted.Even with the stubbornness of the bone bowl, when he saw this spring, he became a little more honest. He ran to pick two big leaves to draw water, drank a handful with the jingshi each, and went on the road again.

A hundred steps from the spring is Dongquan Village.The layout and appearance are not very different from Zhongcun where Jingshi lives, except that there are a little more houses.When the villagers in the village saw the two of them visiting, they all called out their friends and companions, and a crowd gathered to watch. For a while, the houses were empty and the alleys were cleared, and the village was crowded.

Jingshi was blocked by these Yan people, it was difficult to advance or retreat, he was about to ask to make way, but he heard them chattering, they were all talking in the local dialect, maybe they couldn't understand the official language on land.Fortunately, Gu'erwan was familiar with the people in this village. He jumped forward, screaming loudly, sometimes pointing at himself, sometimes tapping thorns, and dancing a few times with a wooden stick.The people below seemed to be fascinated by what they heard, their eyes didn't even blink, they stared straight at him dancing with sticks and feet.

After he had finished talking in local language, Yan Min was amazed several times, his eyes showed admiration, and they all went towards the bone bowl.Jing Shi didn't know what he said, but when he observed the words and expressions, he already felt something strange.Gently patted the head of the Gu'er bowl and said, "What did you tell them just now?"

Gu'erwan looked away and said: "What can I say? I just told them that the new official is here, and if there is any trouble in the future, I will come to you."

Jing Shi smiled and said, "Then why do they always look at you?"

Seeing his expression, Gu'erwan even shifted his eyes, his speed was really suspicious.Seeing this, Jing Shi knew that there must be a flower head in it, but Gu'er Wan refused to let go, he had nothing to do, he was not in a hurry to pursue it, he just said: "I don't understand your local dialect, since you can speak official dialect, it's just right to teach you I'm a fluke." After saying that, he walked towards the village with big strides.

All the people at the entrance of the village knew that he was going to appoint a new official, and they didn't dare to stop him from doing things. When they saw him coming, they all stepped aside and followed behind.Gu'erwan jumped up and said, "Xinguaner, I learned the language of you people on land, but it took me a few years, and I was beaten by the old lady Splash a lot. If you want to learn my language, it will take five or six years at least." In the next month, when you have learned the language, you have to go back to land. Why bother? Anyway, I have been ordered, you have to go with you on any day. If you have anything to say, I will convey it to you. Waste Old man Zhou is soft-hearted, this Dongquan land is reserved for fools, they don’t know much, and they will be dumbfounded when they say it, and it’s useless to listen to it.”

Jing Shi walked and said, "Really? It turns out that your Mandarin was taught by Shui Hua. Why do I hear you speak differently?"

Gu'erwan scratched his head and said, "I don't think it's very different."

Jing Shi glanced at him, smiled lightly again, didn't bother to delve into it, and then said: "I have some experience in learning the dialect, you just teach me. At the latest one month, I can always understand what you say, and don't bother you Always follow."

Guerwan didn't quite believe what he heard, he turned his head quickly, and shook his head about ten times before he stopped and said, "New official, don't you feel that you have a good head, so you brag about it. The old official back then I also want to learn to speak from the old man Huo Zhou, but you people in mainland China have poor ears. There are two distinct tunes, but he can't hear it anyway, and he didn't learn it in the end. I see that your ears are as big as his, and you probably won't be able to learn it. .”

Jing Shi said: "Try it and you will know."

Between the two of you talking, they have already walked around the village.The villagers were surprised at first, but after following them for a few steps, they gradually lost interest when they saw that they were just wandering around.Seeing this, Gu'erwan said, "Wait here for the new official. I will deliver the medicine for the old woman of Shuihua first, and I will go back when I go." Draw a circle on the ground with a wooden stick, which is surrounding Jingshi , just jumped on the roof

Jing Shi had previously talked with Fei Zhou, and had also asked about the position of a medical officer.Because there is no real government in the country, except for the sacrifices in the half-underworld city, the rest are the three officials. Among them, life and death are both great ceremonies, which can be ignored, but the "pharmaceutical officials" who heard that they are similar to medical professions can be listed side by side. The position of the third official feels rather strange.He questioned Fei Zhou about this, and his answer was very ominous, he only said that Yan Ji was born with a hidden disease, most of them never develop it for life, but once it occurs, it is enough to kill him.This disease was passed down by the ancestors of Yanke, and there is no cure, but the damage can be delayed by medicine. Therefore, the post of "pharmaceutical official" is specially set up to take care of this matter.

Although there are many doubts in this answer, but Jingshi is new here, he knows that this place is abnormal, he can't deduce it from conventional knowledge, so he has no choice but to leave it alone.Thinking about this at this time, I saw the wind and scenery today, the fine waves rising and falling in the distance, and a black line faintly showing at the end of Bi Tao, which should be the place where Zhang Duan lived.But thinking that this country has no country name, it is actually close to the barbarian wilderness, and its people are monkey-like, and it is by no means tameable by article education.As for Zhang Duangui, a famous lady from a family, this time entering the island as a test, I am afraid that it is a bit more difficult than the other men, and it is also worrying to think about it.

Just as his mood was fluctuating, he suddenly heard a light rattling sound on his head, but it was the bone bowl coming back from the eaves. He turned over and landed in front of his eyes, and said, "Is the new official homesick?"

Jing Shi said: "No." Then he moved forward.Gu'erwan followed beside him, asking questions endlessly, Jing Shi was so entangled with him, he said casually, "Have you ever seen wild cats in the village?"

He didn't mean to ask, but when Gu'erwan heard this, he immediately showed distaste, shook his head and said, "How could you let that kind of thing in? New official, old man Huozhou said that some of your mainlanders have homes Cats, I can tell you in advance that you mainlanders have poor ears and are not afraid of disasters. I can't stand that thing screaming, and my head hurts when I hear it. If you live bored, you can raise chickens and pigs. It's up to you, but you can't raise that ghost, or I will definitely catch it."

Jing Shi didn't expect Gu'erwan to be strong and strong, flying over eaves and walls is easy, but he couldn't help meowing, so he smiled and said: "I don't plan to raise livestock."

Gu'erwan was still worried, and kept talking to him about how ugly and terrifying the cat was.If you don't know what it means and just listen to what it says, it's not like you're talking about a wild cat, it's more like talking about a bird of prey. Jing Shi is also surprised when he hears it.However, he knows that there is a folk custom of worshiping cats and fearing cats. It is often said that cats, dogs and livestock have keen senses, and their eyes can communicate yin and yang.Although this is a rumor among the people, it is groundless, and there must be a reason for it. It is also reasonable that Yan fluke has a peculiar physique and can detect what ordinary people don't realize.

The two talked while walking, leaving the boundary of Dongquan all the way, and then went to the top of the mountain.Although Hamusuo Island is not a vast area, it is not possible to travel all over it in one day. However, because most of the island is mountainous from the center to the north, the three settlements are all located on the southern flat land of the island, with pastures and water sources. In the southern part of the mountain peaks, you don't need to travel all over the island to travel between them. If you hurry up in a day, it will be enough.

Although the country of Yanyue is lonely and hanging in the secluded sea, it is still a state under the emperor in name, and it also respects the laws of the country of Bin.In Banming City, there is a special person to teach the Xuanyin of bird characters and promote the education of Luzhong.But all the priests, who have been taught all kinds of learning since childhood, can speak the language of Luzhong. The high priest sent someone to translate before, which is also limited by the number of etiquette.However, the situation in the archipelago is different. The people living on the island live their whole life on their own land, and they don’t know the world outside the island.Even if there are three officials who work part-time to educate, but the islanders have no intention of imitating, there is nothing they can do.However, the native language is natural, almost born, and it is easy to learn. As time goes by, most of them use the native language.

Jing Shi talked with Huo Zhou first, and then visited the village in person. Although the time was short, he already had a rough idea of ​​the situation.Considering my tenure here, if I want to do something, I really have to learn this dialect.As soon as he left Dongquan Village, he brought up the matter with Gu'erwan again.Although Gu'erwan didn't believe that he could learn, but he was very excited to be a teacher. He immediately pointed fingers and chirped strangely, wishing to show all the abilities in his belly.

He did it on a whim, purely on the basis of his own thoughts, for a moment he wanted to teach Jing Shi the names of places and people on the island, but then he found it boring to learn, so he wanted to teach him how to drink and swear, but he didn't say anything doorway.Hearing his high and low barking, Jing Shi also knew that this person was definitely not a good teacher, so he immediately cut off the other person's conversation, and asked questions one by one according to his own thoughts, only then did he sort it out a little.

It turns out that the native language of Yanfu is different from that of Luzhong Mandarin. There are very few phonological changes.Xuanyue Zhengyue has only four main tones, which is extremely difficult to learn, while the single tone of Yanjiu Mandarin has as few as six tones, as many as [-] tones. Can tell the difference.

Jing Shi originally wanted to learn the local dialect, but he didn't have a complete grasp of it, now he knows the difficulty, but he has a plan in mind, he no longer makes it difficult, he just asked Gu'erwan to recite the fifteen tones back and forth, and listened to the common words one by one.After an hour or two like this, you will know that these fifteen tones seem to be complicated, but in fact they are high-key expressing joy, low-key expressing sadness, flat tones are good, and melodies are dangerous. memorize.

He memorized it silently in his heart, and then classified the words and sentences he knew into categories to find the secret.So my mind was overturned, but my face didn't show at all.Gu'erwan didn't know what was going on in his mind. Seeing him walking silently and muffled, he felt very bored. He stabbed his calf with a stick and said, "Xin Guaner, when I imitated you mainlanders, I couldn't remember those strange words." , the old lady Splash forced me to speak Lu dialect every day. I spoke a lot, so I naturally memorized it. I think you just listen to it like this. When will you be able to use it? Just say a few words and let me listen to the tune. Yes." After saying that, he squeaked and poked Jingshi's calf with a stick, asking him to follow suit.

Jing Shi pulled his foot back slightly, avoiding the blow from the wooden stick, and then smiled and said: "No need. Since you have been walking with me these days, you don't need me to speak, I just want to understand what you just said. I understand, if you want me to repeat it, I’m afraid I won’t be able to pronounce that sound.”

But Gu'er Wan didn't believe his words, he squinted at him and said, "Xin Guan'er understood what I just said?"

Jing Shi nodded and said: "I probably understand. You said that I look stupid when I walk, like a newborn wild boar."

Gu'erwan didn't speak any more when he heard the sound, just shook his head, picked up the stick as if nothing had happened, cut grass to open the way ahead, swept the thorns to the left, and swayed the wild irrigation to the right, busy and busy.Jing Shi followed behind, didn't say a word, just looked at him and smiled.
