During lunch, old man Qian said: "I heard that you went to find Huangtu, how is the situation?"

Zhang Taiping replied: "I pulled it back, and now I'm on the field."

"Where did you find it, and it took so long?"

Zhang Taiping smiled and said: "It took hundreds of miles to get it back."

After eating, Zhang Taiping and old man Qian went over to have a look at the venue.Old man Qian grabbed a piece of loess and crushed it into powder and said: "This loess is of good quality, and it will be firm when it is applied on the roof." He pointed to the thick laurel tree next to the mound and asked, "What kind of wood is this?" ? Why are the roots still on it?”

"This is a big osmanthus tree, which is hundreds of years old."

"Osmanthus wood is not suitable for building a house, but it is suitable for making coffee tables and so on." Old Man Qian shook his head and nodded again.

Zhang Taiping shook his head with a smile: "This is not brought back to be used as timber, it is still alive and ready to be planted by the pond."

"Can such a thick tree survive?" Old Man Qian asked in surprise.In mountain villages and even in the entire countryside, the trees planted are usually seeds or young saplings that have just grown up. In this way, there are often some that cannot survive, but I have never seen a situation where a tree that is hundreds of years old is planted. Most of them are greening trees on both sides of the new roads in the city. Of course, there is no need for greening in mountain villages, so this situation will naturally not happen.

"Of course I can survive." Zhang Taiping said with certainty, "Now the big trees on both sides of the road in the city are planted like this. If the tree is sick, it will be hung with a bottle for infusion."

Old man Qian stopped sending the pipe to the innermost part, and asked in surprise, "Injecting a big tree with needles? Isn't this playing the qin indiscriminately?"

Zhang Taiping denied: "This is not playing the piano randomly. From a scientific point of view, there are pipes in the body of the big tree that transport water and nutrients, just like the blood vessels in the human body. Giving the big tree an injection. Experiments have proved that it is very effective, saving many big trees that are about to die."

"Tsk tsk." Old man Qian sighed twice and stopped talking.

Zhang Taiping asked: "Is this soil enough? If not, I will contact you as soon as possible and bring a car back." There is still half of the space, it is not all poured out, only enough to pour out the amount of a car.

"It's enough, and there will definitely be more." The old man Qian said, knocking on the dry pipe, "The frame of the wooden house has been completely built in the past two days. Since the loess has not returned, I and others have not been idle. The floor of the house was paved with blue bricks, and now that the loess is back, we can start laying tiles tomorrow."

Zhang Taiping nodded. It has already been discussed to use blue bricks to pave the floor in the house. He originally planned to use a whole piece of wood to pave the floor in the wooden house. In the end, he felt that it was too extravagant. Think about it or forget it. .

After dinner and other people came, Zhang Taiping said: "Just transport the loess to the foot of the mountain in the afternoon, and then help me plant this big tree. After the work is done, everyone can rest, and we will lay the tiles tomorrow morning." .”

Zhang Taiping went to the village chief's house and Wang Peng's house to borrow a few more rack carts, and paired them up in pairs, while Zhang Taiping went directly to a group, and the group of people moved all the loess piles to the foot of the mountain in a short time.

When it came time to move the big tree, it was a little troublesome, because it couldn't fit in the rack truck, so it had to be carried by people.A big rope was tied to the head and tail, and three big ropes were tied to the middle. A few young and strong laborers from the village were called to help. The son lifted the big tree weighing several thousand catties.

The average weight of each person is only more than 200 catties. This weight is as light as nothing to Zhang Taiping, but it is not so easy for other people. This is only a strong rural man who can lift [-] catties. If people in the city were to lift heavy objects, such a piece of wood would take twenty people, and I don't know if they can lift it.Everyone shouted the chant and moved forward together with strength, so that the strength can be used in a rhythm to play a bonus role.

After walking and stopping three times, he carried the big tree back into the garden, and placed it in the middle of the lavender field at Zhang Taiping's request.This lavender field has an area of ​​nearly [-] acres. It is not small. The whole lavender looks really beautiful, but it is a little empty. If you transplant this big osmanthus tree, wait until its branches and leaves grow again. It's a nice view.

After finishing these, Zhang Taiping gave the people who came to help and the original people a pack of cigarettes worth ten yuan each. He was never stingy in this kind of thing.Everyone knew his temper, and they didn't refuse, and put the cigarettes in their pockets happily.You must know that it is very good to give away a pack of ten yuan cigarettes for such a small favor.

After resting for a while, everyone began to dig a large hole for planting trees. The large piece of soil carried by the tree roots had a diameter of two meters. If a hole was to be dug, a large hole with a diameter of at least three meters and a depth of two meters.It would take some time for one person to make such a big pit, but it would be much easier if several people swiped the shovels together.

After the hole was dug, when the tree was put into the hole, most of the people couldn't help it because it had to stand up. Only five or six people could help the tree up together.

Old man Qian shouted from the side: "I'm shouting, everyone work hard together."

"One, two, three, up!"

The six people lifted the big tree with poles and put it gently into the pit. It was more difficult to handle it than to force it. This was the result of Zhang Taiping's great efforts in it. After putting it in, the people who worked hard were relieved. While continuing to support it with their hands, other people immediately filled it with soil and patted it down.

"This big guy is quite heavy." A man wiped the sweat from his brow and said.

Zhang Taiping smiled, if a thing weighing more than 2000 jins was moved in such a small area, if he broke out, one person would be completely capable of it, but it would be a bit too shocking to do it like that.

After planting the tree, Zhang Taiping asked everyone to go back to rest and come back to work tomorrow. As for watering the trees, he left it to himself.

When he watered again, he added some space spring water in it, but the amount was very small, only to the extent that hairy roots grew on the roots below to ensure that it could survive, otherwise, if it was watered too much, it would be like this on the newly planted trunk. After a while, I found the young leaves, which were too heaven-defying to explain.

In the afternoon and even in the evening, Zhang Taiping sat in the shade under the tree to relax.The old man has already started treating Mu Hongyu's legs, and the others and Cai Yazhi went to work in the orchard, picking pumpkins, winter melons, honey, etc. There are quite a lot of trivial things to do at home.

And the two little girls moved a small table and bench, lying beside Zhang Taiping, writing pinyin letters and simple Chinese characters.Wukong looked at it for a while and felt bored, so he scratched lightly, closed his eyes and rested his mind. Seeing that he didn't respond, Zhang Taiping also ran into the orchard.

During dinner, the old man came out from the back room, he was slightly taken aback when he saw Zhang Taiping, and then said: "I'm back."

Zhang Taiping replied: "I came back around noon, and I was in a tree in the afternoon."

The old man nodded and said, "Come over to the back room after dinner."

After dinner, Zhang Taiping took out Polygonum Polygoni Multiflori, Huang Jing and the little fiery red snake from the space, and came to the room where the old man practiced medicine and lived.

After sitting down, the old man Zhang Taiping observed his face carefully for a while, then took his pulse and said, "You look not very good. What happened when you went out this time?"

Except for the existence of the space, Zhang Taiping generally did not hide other things from the old man. When the old man asked, he explained the experience in the mountain in detail: "Actually, the main reason for going out this time is not to search for loess, but Into the mountains, unintentionally walked into a mountain stream"

After patiently listening to Zhang Taiping, the old man stroked his beard and asked, "Is that snake really as thick as a bucket?"

An old man in Zhang Taiping didn't believe it, so he nodded and said: "This is what I saw with my own eyes, it's absolutely true!"

Unexpectedly, the old man said: "I saw such a big snake when I entered the mountain in the early years, but it was a bit different than what you said, it was not so thick, nor so long, but judging from the appearance you described, it was quite There is a [-]% chance that it is the same."

This time it was Zhang Taiping's turn to be surprised: "Grandpa saw it too? So how did grandpa escape in the end?"

You must know that even when the old man was at his peak, he must be incomparable to his current self in terms of physical strength and skills, and there is no space for such heaven-defying and inexplicable things to exist.So Zhang Taiping was really curious about what the old man used to escape.

The old man shook his head: "When the snake grows to such an extent, it cannot be resisted by manpower. I also thought that I confessed there that time, but I didn't expect that the big snake didn't show any hostility, so I just kept silent. It stood quietly and did not do anything that could lead to misunderstanding, it just looked at me for a while and left by itself."

Zhang Taiping recalled the situation he encountered with Ghostface at that time, the big snake didn't show any hostility at first, it wasn't until Ghostface was sent flying that he slashed at its body.All of this was caused by Grimace's impatience at the time, but it's useless to think about it now.

"So grandpa also went into that mountain stream?"

"Mountain stream?" The old man thought for a while and said, "That place is full of miasma, and I can't see the situation below clearly, and I don't know if it is a mountain stream."

"That's it." Zhang Taiping said affirmatively, "The place I went in was full of miasma, and I couldn't see the scene five meters away." During lunch, old man Qian said: "I heard that you went to find Huangtu, what's the situation? Sample?"

Zhang Taiping replied: "I pulled it back, and now I'm on the field."

"Where did you find it, and it took so long?"

Zhang Taiping smiled and said: "It took hundreds of miles to get it back."
