Chapter 1420: Taohuaji outside Taohua Town
Jinshan County, Yingtian Prefecture, is surrounded by mountains on three sides, making it easy to defend and difficult to attack; Taohuaji, Taohua Town, with mountains on its back and water on its side, is a holy place for garrisoning.
In the morning, before the rising sun reached three poles, a sound of horseshoe ruts broke the tranquility of Taohua Town. Carriages loaded with luggage passed through Peach Blossom Town in an endless stream, rushing non-stop to the Peach Blossom Market outside the town.
“I heard the day before yesterday that a high-ranking official was going to train and garrison troops in Taohuaji. Who are these carriages pulling baggage?”
“Yes, they are. Someone came up and asked just now. Mouth, they went to the Peach Blossom Market outside the town.”
"Well, things are unpredictable. I don't know if the garrison in Taohuaji will be a good thing or a bad thing for us."
"It's a good thing. Those officials just bought a whole pork from Zhang Tu's. I bought 20 piglets from my place, and a total of 500 chickens and chickens from Grandma Lin’s place. As for the five hundred ducklings, Grandma Lin found three households that hatched chicken and ducklings. She made at least half a year's worth of money."
"What a small profit. Are you attracted by this? In recent years, these soldiers have become less and less decent. They are not so much soldiers. They are said to be thieves in official guise, dominating the market, bullying men and women, haven't they done enough? They have also done a lot of such heinous things as killing people and setting fires."
" It also depends on who leads the troops. I heard that the officer leading the troops is not bad. What is his name? He used to be. The magistrate of Jingnan County, my second aunt is from Jingnan, and said that Mr. Zhu is a real parent officer. He should be good at training troops and garrisoning."
"Hearing is believing, seeing is believing. How about this man. , we will see the result after a while, go home and wish everyone good luck.”
The people of Taohua Town looked at the carriages pulling baggage and started discussing with complicated emotions. They didn't know whether the garrison in Taohua Town was a blessing or a curse for them, and whether it brought them good luck or misfortune.
Ten miles outside Peach Blossom Town is Peach Blossom Collection.
Amidst the discussion among the people of Taohua Town, the endless convoy of luggage was getting closer and closer to Taohuaji.
"Sir, there is a peach blossom market one mile ahead." Liu Mu rode his horse to a carriage and reported.
"Okay, let me tell you, after arriving at Peach Blossom Ji, rest for a while before setting up camp." Zhu Pingan replied.
"Follow your orders." Liu Mu went to deliver the order.
“There is a Peach Blossom Collection in front of you, but you haven’t seen any peach trees yet?” Hua’er heard that there was a Peach Blossom Collection in front of her, and she couldn’t help but curiously opened the curtains to observe the surrounding environment, and was surprised that she didn’t find any peach trees.
"There are many peach trees planted on the mountains over there. By March and May next year, peach blossoms will be blooming all over the mountains and plains."
Zhu Pingan pointed to the hillside not far away and said to Hua'er .
"Okay, let's go see the peach blossoms with the lady then." Hua'er was as happy as a ninety-pound child.
"Oh, what's so beautiful about flowers? You can't eat or drink them. It only looks good when the branches are covered with peaches."
The voice of the witch Ruonan came from the side.
"Of course flowers are beautiful. How can a girl not love flowers?" Hua'er retorted with her little mouth pouted.
"I don't like it." The demon girl Ruonan replied matter-of-factly, and then said with a look of disgust, "Beyond their beauty, flowers are useless. Not only can they not be eaten or drunk, but they are also picked and harvested by others. Picked by bees, picked by butterflies, picked by moths, no matter whether they are miscellaneous or miscellaneous If you can pick flowers, you are a weakling who will let others bully you and only use colors to please others!"
"You think too much, flowers are just for people to see." Hua'er listened. If the enchantress were a man, Baozi's face could not help but wrinkle into a ball. He was just looking at the beautiful flowers. Who would think about all this mess.
"You think too little," the demon girl Ruonan glanced at Hua'er and said leisurely.
"You obviously think too much." Hua'er puffed out her cheeks and said.
"Then tell me if what I said is true. Can the flowers be eaten? Can they be drank? Have they been picked by people, have they been picked by bees, have they been picked by butterflies, have they been picked by moths? "Cai?" The demon Ruonan blinked.
"." Hua'er's cheeks bulged very high, and she wanted to refute, but when she opened her mouth, she realized that what she said was true. However, she still felt in her heart that what she said was wrong, but she couldn't react. Come on, I don’t know how to refute, just like the dumplings cooked in a teapot are not poured out, so in the end I can only get angry.
“You see, right, so you think too little.” The demon Ruonan said. He smiled victoriously.
Just when the demon girl Ruonan was proud, Zhu Pingan turned around and looked at the demon girl Ruonan with a smile, and said with a wicked look, "Haha, actually you think too little."
"What? ! I didn’t think too much!” The demon Ruo Nan sneered when she heard this, “I don’t know, you nerd. Any advice?"
Zhu Pingan smiled and shook his head, "Do you think that flowers are picked by bees, picked by butterflies, and picked by moths? They are weak and can be bullied."
"Otherwise?! If someone picks you up, will you become a strong person?" The demon Ruonan retorted with a sneer.
"So you think too little and your vision is too short-sighted." Zhu Pingan said with a smile.
"You are short-sighted!" The demon girl Ruonan gritted her teeth and said, "If you don't tell me why today, you will look good."
"You think that flowers picked by bees and butterflies are the weak ones being bullied by them. Oh, you are wrong. Butterflies, bees and the like are actually workers enslaved by flowers, um, that is, they work. "
Zhu Pingan said with a smile.
"Giggles, you readers are liars. Those who pick flowers are slaves, and those who are picked are masters?! With these words, you are just deceiving Hua'er." The demon girl Ruonan rolled her eyes, giggling and sneered again and again. .
"If only boys and girls knew the truth of flowers and fruits." Zhu Ping'an still smiled.
"Of course I know." The demon Ruonan said calmly.
"To put it simply, humans are divided into male and female, but plants are still the same. Only the combination of yin and yang can reproduce offspring. Flowers are in full bloom, colorful, emitting various sweet and exciting smells, attracting butterflies, bees and the like, and pollen is also It spreads to other flowers through butterflies and bees, completes the combination, and then reproduces. Therefore, flowers use bees and butterflies to spread pollen and reproduce."
Zhu Pingan explained with a smile. road.
When the demon girl Ruonan heard this, her face immediately turned red, and she frowned and glanced at Zhu Pingan, "That's nonsense."
"This is a fact, isn't it." Zhu Pingan used the word demon girl Ruonan. In the same tone as before, he replied with a smile.
"Bah! According to what you said, those flowers are not, aren't they..." The demon girl Ruonan's face turned red and she couldn't continue.
"Of course, from this perspective, flowers are indeed the organs for plant reproduction." Zhu Pingan shrugged.
“Shameless, dirty, and obscene.” When the witch Ruonan heard this, she felt goosebumps all over her body when she thought of the blossoming flowers. She felt that she would never be able to look directly at the flowers again. (End of this chapter)
