Healing Hotel

"Do you know what that is and eat it?" Yu Qing obeyed.

Cheng Jing scratched his head and said, "I think it's okay to eat the chicken."

Yu Qing saw that the hell chicken had pecked a karmic fruit somewhere, and after two pecks, it was chased away by the three-headed dog with green eyes.The little chickens also chirped anxiously, seeing Chen Jin beside them and laughing.

Yu Qing: "..." He should stop doing anything today, and look for any karmic fruits that have fallen!

Finally, after he stopped, one chicken and one dog were finally stopped.Just taking advantage of Yu Qing's bending time, the hell chicken put down the karma fruit, the bean eyes flashed a cunning light, and the chicken paw quickly slashed, as if cutting with a knife, the fruit was divided into two halves.One chicken and one dog bit off half of each, and quickly ran back to the nest.

Chen Jin saw it clearly, and couldn't help: "Hahaha... hiccup?!!"

What can Yu Qing do, they can't be stewed anymore.But seeing how the two are fighting, the fruit should be a good thing for them, right?

He turned around to make sure there was nothing in the yard.

The old house opened the back door again and said: "There are here."

Yu Qing pushed the door open and found that it was actually a small courtyard.

He remembered that the last time Lao Tao and the others went in and out, the door was facing the forest, only steep rocks and weeds, it was not like this.

"This is my secret garden, the most important place in our tree house. The fruit you mentioned fell here." The old man said.

Yu Qing looked a little dazed.

It says it's a garden...but it's kind of desolate.The grassland is green and yellow, and the plants are sparse, all of which are rarely seen. The ground is full of fallen leaves, and occasionally a few unknown flowers bloom.There is a well in the middle of the yard... it looks like it should be a well.

There is a faint light on the mouth of the well.

However, when he got closer, Yu Qing found that the well was very shallow, like a small circular pit, filled with shallow water.The light is emitted by these waters.

"Because I'm old." Lao Zhai regretted, "When I was young, this place used to be very beautiful. This well is also very deep. Those waters are the essence of our tree house, the origin of everything, and all my abilities come from it .”

A butterfly flew over, tapped on the water, and flew away quickly, and the light on the water surface rippled.

It turned out that the butterflies were released from here... Yu Qing glanced around and found two karmic fruits that fell in the corner, then looked at the sky, worried: "What if it rains?"

"Hoho...I usually hide it, only occasionally take it out to bask in the sun." The old man smiled foolishly.

Yu Qing went back to the small well, hesitatingly said: "This place...can be remodeled? Artificial renovation or something. I can clean it up for you."

"I can't, man-made interference is a kind of damage to us. But don't worry, as long as there are people living here, this place will not continue to decline."

"Is there no way?"

"There is no way. This world is actually not suitable for the growth of our tree house, and it will also limit many of our abilities. Here, I will age faster, and unlike Zhang Shu, they can regenerate after many years even if they are cut down in the middle. Restore youth." Lao Zhai said enviously.

"Once the tree house loses the source of water, it will die completely, leaving only a body, which will not germinate or resurrect."

Yu Qing was stunned, he never thought that the old house would "die".Thinking about it this way, my mind went blank, my heart stopped for a few beats, and it took me a long time to calm down and said, "Don't tell anyone in the future, what if you meet someone with ulterior motives?"

"The owner of our tree house will have no problem." Lao Zhai recalled. "Your great-grandfather also knew about it. However, I couldn't find a suitable heir among his descendants at that time. According to the customs here, it is impossible for the Yu family to give the house to others, so he gave me the house before his death. Locked up so that no one can come in and vandalize."

Yu Qing understood, so the house was not locked because it was haunted, maybe my grandfather said that to deceive people.He warned: "Then you must hide the garden well, and don't open the wrong door for people to come in."

"Don't worry, I will. And Xiao Wuzhong's strange tree is now blocking the mountain road at the back door, and no one will come over."

Yu Qing looked up and saw the hell tree outside the wall.This tree looks ordinary from a distance, but it turns out to be so thick and strong at a close look, I am afraid that there are no two or three people who can't embrace it.

It seems that 586 is not a randomly planted tree, and the site is clearly chosen.

A hole was opened in the old house, and he went out to have a look, making sure that there were no other fallen fruits, so he left with confidence.

After a while, in the corner of the small courtyard, the small tree swayed, and the figure of the fox gradually appeared.

Hu Er checked the door to make sure that he hadn't returned. He went to the well and circled around a few times. He curled his lips and said, "Old man, why didn't you tell him that he needs popularity? Didn't you say that you can go back when the customers are full?" ?”

"I'm not sure, it's just my guess. And I think... at least spend the rest of my life with him, anyway, life is short. If I leave first, he might not be happy." The old man was melancholy In other words, branches protrude from the edge of the well, carefully covering the mouth of the well.

"You... well, grow up in the future, don't tell people anything. I have seen too many greedy people, always wanting to take the rare things for themselves. The tears of the merman, the fur of our fox clan, It’s what many people want at all costs. Not to mention you…” the fox muttered.

"Hu Er, is your injury fully healed?" Lao Zhai interrupted him and asked.

"Of course, I'm a big monster anyway, so what's the injury?" Hu Er said proudly.

"That's good." Lao Zhai said happily.

Hu Er wanted to say something else, but Lao Zhai said again: "Xiao Yu said what to make pig's trotters today, it sounds delicious."

Hu Er's eyes lit up, he jumped onto the fence, onto the roof, and ran away.

As soon as Yu Qing returned to the house and was about to put away the karma, he bumped into Lao Tao.

"Hey, what good things does Boss Xiaoyu have?" Lao Tao was immediately attracted by the red fruit in his hand.

"It's nothing, wild fruit. It's used to squeeze the juice for seasoning. It's used to braise pig's feet tonight." Yu Qing didn't hide it, and said calmly.

"Then you have to try it! Do you want my help?" Lao Tao rubbed his hands and said excitedly.

In fact, Yu Qing's cooking skills are average. After all, he has been busy with work and has no time to cook at all, so he only started to study recently.Maybe the ingredients themselves are good, and the taste is not bad.

Lao Tao's cooking skills are quite high, and he often shows his skills, so Yu Qing sometimes asks him for help.Later, he simply let him use the kitchen utensils as he pleases, and he can make whatever he wants to eat by himself.

But this time, Yu Qing decided to come by himself, lest Lao Tao find out that the fruit was not used and ask again.

There is still marinated beef in the refrigerator, and the pork chops have also been thawed. There are quite a lot of meat dishes tonight, and Yu Qing feels that there is still a lack of soup.

He was thinking about making some soup when he noticed some mushrooms in the kitchen basket.After asking Chen Jin, who had been teasing chickens and dogs in the yard, he found out that Aunt Liu had come and brought sauerkraut to him, saying that Lao Tao had ordered two days to make pickled fish.He decided to make mushroom soup tonight.

"Mushrooms! Chicken stewed with mushrooms is the best!" Hu Er excitedly said, and spun around his feet.

"Don't talk nonsense, be careful that people can hear you." Yu Qing reminded.

Hu Er said disdainfully: "The inch-headed boy is just a stupefied young man, so stupid, he can fool me when he hears it."

Yu Qing: "Hush!"

Speaking of people, Chen Jin suddenly ran over and said excitedly: "Boss Xiaoyu, I found a well!"

Yu Qing: "?!"

Where did the well come from?He remembered that after no one lived in the house, the original old well was filled up, fearing that naughty children would fall into it when no one was around.

But Yu Qing followed him, and found a well, just outside the small kitchen, which looked very similar to the one in the secret garden of the old house.At first glance, it is the handwriting of the old house.

It's just that the well looks very deep, and it looks black, as if it has no end.But if you listen carefully, you can hear the murmur of running water.

Yu Qing took Chen Jinzhi away, and secretly asked the old house: "What's going on?"

"Hey...do you still remember the guest who was afraid of ghosts?" the old man said. "It's his emotions. To be precise, it's not a well, it's a tree hole."

Yu Qing: "Cheng Jing's??"

The tree hole is so big, it is dedicated to the tree house!

"Really, the wells in our world are not like this." The old man said, "This is a tree hole. There are many kinds of tree holes, some are big and some are small. This is a relatively large one. We call it a tree hole of courage. It seems that the guest is not as timid as he appears on the surface, because only a person with a strong heart can give birth to this kind of tree hole. This is a very interesting tree hole, anyone who talks to it, it will give you the fear What you do will give you courage, so that you will no longer be afraid.”

Yu Qing: "Oh?"

"For example, as long as someone shouts 'I'm not afraid of ghosts' to it, if that person can hear the echo back from the tree hole, he will no longer be afraid of ghosts." The old house snickered, "You know, Although my brother is a giant, he is very afraid of caterpillars, so he has always wanted to have such a tree hole. If he knows that I have a tenant who brought me courage to the tree hole, he must be very envious."

Yu Qing thinks this hole...is really wonderful!

He really wanted to try something himself, but after searching his guts, he found that he had nothing to fear!

He now regrets that he is no longer afraid of ghosts.

"What if you don't hear the echo?" Yu Qing asked after thinking about it.

Since this is not an ordinary tree hole, and there are special instructions, there must have been a situation where there was no echo.

"That's why the tree hole doesn't recognize it. If you're not really afraid, or you want to add courage to hurt others, the tree hole won't have an echo, and it won't work." Lao Zhai said.

Yu Qing thinks this is pretty good, and it won't be used by those who want to.It's better to keep the well... the tree hole, and find something to shade it from the sun.

"It doesn't matter, it will disappear only when sunlight enters the hole. I can use some leaves to cover the top. Xiaoyu will cover it~" The old house began to move the branches quietly, just like protecting its well of life, using the branches to cover the hole. Block the hole, but leave some small gaps, so it looks a bit like a tree hole.

Yu Qing called Cheng Jing to try it.

Cheng Jing: "What? I'm afraid of ghosts? Impossible! Who said that?"

Yu Qing: "You..."

"You must have misremembered, that must not be me!" Cheng Jing adjusted his paintbrush and complained, "I want to find Ah Piao as a model now, but I can't find one!"

"..."
