Healing Hotel

Yu Qing didn't pay attention to the small movements of the old house, he was busy making a fire and cooking.Just as the chicken was cooked, He Xue and the others came back, shouting that it was too hot, while looking for a cold drink.

Yu Qing said: "Don't drink something too cold when you come back, it's not good for your stomach."

Chen Jin, an impatient person, had already gulped down half a bottle of iced Coke.

The girls were more than willing to listen to persuasion, He Xue drank the ice-free fruit juice, slumped comfortably on the sofa and said, "It's better to stay here, it's really sweltering outside today."

They had a great time, and each picked up a handful of ears of rice. Aunt Liu didn't want them, so she brought them back, saying they could be fed to chickens and ducks.

Free-range chickens and ducks in the countryside are not afraid of people as long as they have something to eat.Yu Qing prepared dinner, was free and sat on the porch with a vegetable leaf, and the ducks would flock over to peck at it, and at this time, he could pat his head and back as he pleased.

This water duck likes to take a bath all day long. After washing, it will find a shady grass to rest in the yard. Its feathers are clean and its head is simple and simple. It looks so cute that the tenants are very itchy.

Yu Qing got up and asked them to play, looked at the sky, and asked strangely: "Is it hot outside?"

There is no feeling in the old house.

"Yeah, I'm so bored, it feels like it's going to rain heavily." Chen Jin said.Today the sun is setting quietly, and there is no sunset at all.

Yu Qing reminded them to remember to put away the clothes to dry before going to bed, so as not to rain at night, the old house saw it, and couldn't help but want to do good deeds.

However, Yu Qing did not expect that the rain woke everyone up at night.

The sound insulation of the old house has always been very good, but no one expected that there will be a thunderstorm tonight!

Rumbling--

bang...

Long...

The thunder shook the whole house as if shaking.Yu Qing has never seen thunder since he came back. It is still such a violent thunderstorm, not only the lightning is frequent, but also the sound of thunder and lightning cooperate seamlessly.

The sound of thunder was first accompanied by the lightning that wandered in the air, making a prelude like a crack, and after the lightning disappeared, there was a deafening explosion like a cannonball.

Therefore, almost all the tenants woke up at night, and Li Qiuyou came down with his pillows in his arms, and knocked on his door pitifully—this little farming expert who didn't make a sound in the wind and rain was actually afraid of thunder!

Hu Er also said: "Lao Zhang, are you okay?"

Although Zhang Shu closed his eyes tightly and seemed to be asleep, every time the thunder sounded, he would suddenly open his eyes and look nervously outside the house.

However, it is quite normal for the tree to be afraid of lightning strikes during thunderstorms.Yu Qing couldn't help wondering, the old house is also a tree, is it also afraid of being struck by lightning, so the sound insulation has deteriorated?

"I'm not, I'm not afraid. I'm just worried about Zhang Shu..." Lao Zhai said tremblingly.However, another thunder came down, and the house shook.

Yu Qing comforted: "Don't worry, the hell tree is much taller than the camphor tree, and it won't be his turn to chop it up."

Lao Zhai: "Say, you're right..."

I don't know if these words comforted it, but in short, when there was another thunderstorm the next day, the old house became much calmer.

No matter how the dark clouds overwhelm the top, it will not be disturbed, but rather playfully——

Boom…

"Hoho..."

rumbling...

"Hohohoho..."

Compete with thunder like a child.

"Because the thunder in our world is very gentle." The old man shyly said, "I have never heard such a fierce thunder. My brother said that when you meet an opponent...you don't like it, you just need to roar louder than it , can drive it away. I think it is very useful, I have scared away some nasty Apiao several times like this."

Yu Qing couldn't laugh or cry.Fortunately, the tenants could not hear the sound of the old house.

The advantage of the thunderstorm is that it doesn't last long, and the old house soon gets tired of playing against the thunderstorm.

It was just raining, and it was wet everywhere outside, and the tenants began to close their doors again.But yesterday they were very tired from playing, Chen Jin was tanned, and today's rest meeting is also very good.

Yu Qing checked all the fruit trees in the yard, and found a strange thing, there were three more bamboos in the yard.

The appearance of bamboo is very different from other trees, he remembers very clearly that there is no such thing at home.

The bamboo is not high, and grows along the camphor tree side of the old house, as if very attached to the house.Cyan clean bamboo joints, slender, not as thick as an arm.There are no fallen leaves under the tree, and it looks like it has just grown.But to say that it can grow like this overnight, the only possibility is...

Yu Qing was thinking about it when a cheerful dog barked from the gate of the courtyard.As soon as I heard it, I knew it was an acquaintance.

"Xiao Yu~" The man came in cheerfully, carrying big and small bags.

"Old Tao is back!" Yu Qing was also very happy.It seems that Lao Tao's family is really recovering from their illnesses, that is...

"Then what, your rice flower fish is kept, but it may not be counted as rice flower fish anymore." Yu Qing said embarrassedly.After Lao Tao hung up the phone that day, probably because his family members kept him there, he still couldn't come back in time, so he raised the fish.

The rice has been harvested, so the rice flower fish can only be kept at home.

"Hey, don't mention it, they just dragged me to the hospital for a check-up. I told you I'm fine, but they didn't believe me. This is great. I don't know when I will be able to eat rice flower fish again." The old man Tao said sadly.

In the field where the rice flower fish is located, the rice yield is not high, and you have to pay attention to the water temperature and rain, and the water rises to run the fish on weekdays, so not many people are willing to toss.The Liu family just opened a restaurant, and only took a small piece of land to raise it as a special dish.

However, Lao Tao was quite optimistic, and was soon attracted by the bamboo behind Yu Qing, and said, "Xiao Yu planted bamboo? Is this to chop bamboo to make rice in bamboo tubes?"

Before Yu Qing could answer, Lao Zhai hurriedly reminded: "Don't chop!"

Yu Qing: "..."

Fortunately, Lao Tao only focused on the fish, and didn't worry about how he got the extra bamboo after leaving so long. He put his luggage away, and went out with the fishing rod without stopping, saying that it had just rained, and the fish had better be hooked.

Yu Qing turned around and asked the old house: "What's going on?"

"This is not an ordinary bamboo, this is a broken bamboo." Lao Zhai said, "Touch it and you will understand."

Yu Qing did as it said, just touched it lightly, and the bamboo made a hollow and crisp sound.If he held it for a longer time, the bamboo would crack, so he quickly withdrew his hand.

"Hohohoho...don't worry, it's just a sound, it won't really crack." Lao Zhai said cheerfully.

Yu Qing understood, and asked, "What kind of emotion is this?"

"The thunderstorm last night scared many guests." The old man said slowly. "This bamboo is very useful. When there is a thunderstorm, with it, everyone will not panic."

Yu Qing looked at the sky, "Can't it see the sun?"

"It's ok, but after seeing the sun, it will turn into an ordinary bamboo." The old man explained patiently, "These guys grow by the sound of thunder. The louder the thunder, the faster they grow."

Yu Qing looked at the three weak bamboos, and they made the sound of breaking bamboos when touched, which really looked frightening.

"Why three trees..." Yu Qing was quite puzzled.The bamboos he had seen were all in clusters, and the three trees were not alone, but they were also a bit strange.

"Everyone who is afraid of thunder will give birth to a broken bamboo..." the old man said halfway, and suddenly fell silent again.

Yu Qing thinks about it, Li Qiuyou must be one, Zhang Shu?Who else?

The old house hurriedly said again: "The guest who is typing on the computer in the room and never going out is also afraid of thunder."

Yu Qing was quite surprised: "See Zhang?"

However, this person was quite honest, and when Yu Qing asked, he simply admitted it.

But Zhang Shu refused to admit it, saying that he had lived for hundreds of years, how could he be afraid of that little lightning strike?

Yu Qing didn't intend to find out, anyway, after the broken bamboo, everyone's mentality was much more stable, and Li Qiuyou was even able to kowtow melon seeds under the eaves to appreciate the lightning without changing his face.

Xiao Xiao was even more daring, and became obsessed with shooting lightning.

But Yu Qing still reminded them, lest they forget the danger when they go out after getting used to it.

Thunderstorms are frequent these days, and Yu Qing unexpectedly discovered that there was a...

"Bamboo shoots?" Chen Jin also noticed it, his eyes were particularly bright. "Can I eat it?"

Yu Qing asked about the old house.

"It's ok, this is a very useful thing. In our world, because the voices of the little people are very small, what they say is always easily ignored by everyone, but after eating broken bamboo shoots, they can make a thunderous voice. It can communicate with huge creatures, and it can also scare away natural enemies, so we call this kind of bamboo shoot "Thunder Roar." Lao Zhai said happily.

"Although the people in your world are all the same size, there is no such trouble. However, Leihou is also a very delicious bamboo shoot."

Yu Qing let Chen Jin dig it, but told him not to touch the bamboo as much as possible.

Actually, needless to say, Chen Jin didn't dare to touch it.Not to mention touching, but when there was a slight gust of wind, the bamboo made a "squeaky" sound, as if saying "I'm going to break, I'm going to break", so he dug very carefully.

The bamboo shoots are not big, and the shells are peeled to reveal the white and tender meat. It is fried with pork belly and is especially suitable for rice.The bamboo shoots are very tender, and when chewed in the mouth, there is a coolness in the mouth, which is particularly refreshing in summer.

Li Qiuyou was also puzzled: "There is also a bamboo forest in our village, but the bamboo shoots are very bitter."

Old Tao Le said, "The varieties are different."

Chen Jin said where he dug it, and Lao Tao saw three bamboos, which is a pity that there are too few.

"It doesn't matter, if there is more thunder, it will grow. This bamboo will sprout as soon as it hears thunder. Some villains will specially invite timid people to visit their homes during thunderstorms, so that they don't need I searched hard everywhere." Lao Zhai said calmly. "So... the fear of thunder is not, not something to be ashamed of."

"Yeah." Yu Qing also thought it was pretty good, and told him to cover the sun with the bamboo.Although the broken bamboo grows taller and is exposed to the sun, it is quite pleasing to the eye to become an ordinary bamboo, but in that case, it will not be able to help Zhang Shu overcome the thunder.

Lao Zhai agreed happily.Its bamboo, of course, must be protected!

Only 586 secretly said: "Old man, did you go to the tree hole at dawn?"

The old house: "!!"
