I raised monsters in the Song Dynasty

Li Banxi didn't know if this method would work, but after hearing from Sao Qingniang that Tiannv was in poor health and her eyesight and hearing had declined a lot, she remembered the shadow puppet show that her parents took him to.

The shadow puppet show was performed by an old man, and it was wonderful. It mainly played the story of a few little people resisting the Japanese army during the Anti-Japanese War.That scene was very touching, and Li Banxi still hasn't forgotten it.

Now this method is also learned from the old man, but the shadow puppet is replaced by a cut-out picture, and the white light used to illuminate it behind is replaced by a jar of fireflies.

Li Banxi heard a lot about the goddess and Yinglong from Sao Qingniang. He heard that Yinglong often appeared in the form of a dragon at that time, so he drew a few dragons with different movements, which happened to be a coherent movement. , although it may not be needed, he still drew it for a rainy day.

And that jar of fireflies was caught by Lian Shuo and the giant by the stream in the village. Ancient times are different from modern times. Fireflies are not a rare thing here. Go to the stream for a while, and the glowing little There are as many things as there are mosquitoes in the woods in the summer that hit you in the face.

The light of a firefly may be weak, but there are at least a hundred of them in this jar, gathered together like a lantern, shining brightly in this cave with a clear outline.

They radiate light and life, projecting paper-cuts in the shape of Yinglong onto the stone walls of the cave.

The shadow was vague and gentle, hazy and lingering.

"Ying Long, is that you?" The heavenly girl's voice was already very weak, but a bit of tenderness could still be heard, "You are right there, aren't you?"

Li Banxi and Lian Shuo were silent, not sure whether they should answer, their voices were different from Ying Long's, if the goddess heard the clue, all previous efforts would be wasted, if they didn't answer, it would be extremely cruel to spend so quietly.

The firefly light is like moonlight, covering the isolated island in the middle of the water with a layer of gentle white veil, and also covering the person in the center of the island with a layer of mystery and beauty.

For the goddess, Li Banxi couldn't see clearly, he could only see a slender figure from the back, but he just felt that this woman must be very beautiful, because she has love in her heart, and people in her heart. If she didn't have love, she wouldn't be like this For many years, she has only cared about Yinglong. If she hadn't had people, she would not have ruined her own happiness, abandoned her status as a fairy, and descended to become this monster that everyone despises.

I only heard that voice coming from the isolated island again, and the ethereal echoed in the cave: "You can just stand there, how can I let you see that I am neither human nor ghost?"

After a while, she talked to herself again, her tone full of nostalgia and sadness: "Actually, you can come today, which is already beyond my expectation..."

unexpected?Li Banxi and Lian Shuo stared at each other with wide eyes, didn't the goddess have hope for the dragon?

"I'm so happy that you can come..." The voice of the goddess became weaker and weaker, "When Nuwa handed me the divine fruit back then, I knew that I couldn't escape after all... cough cough... cough cough ..." Maybe it was because she was bound by the fairy for too long, the voice of the goddess became weaker and weaker, making people feel that she was about to disappear as she spoke.

"Bao..." Sao Qingniang couldn't stop crying, she knew that Ba's time was running out, and said in a hoarse voice, "Say a few words less...save your energy so that I... ...Let me take another good look at you..."

Seeing that Sao Qingniang was crying so hard, the goddess smiled and touched its round head: "Silly boy, what are you crying for... I want... I have to fulfill my last wish... It can be regarded as death without regrets, after so many years Now... I want to thank you the most... At the beginning, my mother gave you to me as a gift, but I still thought you were ugly, cough...cough...now...now...you are still so ugly when you cry... "

Sao Qingniang cried even louder: "Please...don't say it, don't say it."

Li Banxi heard the sound of heavy rain outside the cave, it was the tears of Sao Qingniang.

The celestial girl began to cough violently, her eyes met the shadow, she was tender and tender, and although her voice was weak, she still kept saying, "I too... I don't know... In this life... Is it love wrong... or love is right? I don't know...whether you love me or not, but I thank the gods, the heavens and the earth, for letting me know you...in my life, I was born to be a god, and I fought for my people, and I have no complaints or regrets , and you, no matter what is the reason for approaching me, I will not complain or hate... Also, I... I..."

Li Banxi didn't hear the last sentence, he asked Lian Shuo, Lian Shuo shook his head and said, "She should...should..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw golden light shining all over the cave, the source of the golden light was in the center of the isolated island, Li Banxi was stabbed so hard that he couldn't open his eyes, after a while, the golden light disappeared, he opened his eyes, and everything in the cave recovered Seeing her original state, Sao Qingniang was unable to cry on the celestial girl, but the celestial girl was motionless.

She died.

Li Banxi took the can of fireflies as a street lamp, and ran quickly, and Lian Shuo followed, and the two of them didn't stop until they reached the pool.

Li Banxi panted and glanced at Lian Shuo, Lian Shuo knew that he wanted to go over, and was about to fly over with him on his back when Sao Qingniang yelled hoarsely: "Don't come over!"

Both were startled.

"Don't come here!" Sao Qingniang repeated again, "This place is about to sink..."

As soon as the words fell, the two felt the ground shake for a while, and small stones began to fall from the surrounding walls from time to time, and the isolated island in the middle of the water also began to sink at an astonishing speed!

Seeing that Sao Qingniang didn't make any movement, Li Banxi's heart skipped a beat, and then he shouted anxiously: "Aren't you coming here! Come here quickly, you'll be trapped right away!"

Sao Qingniang shook her head, and suddenly took out something from her body and threw it towards Li Banxi. Li Banxi was in a hurry, but she didn't expect it to suddenly throw something over. She was unprepared, and saw the thing facing him. Hit it!

At this moment, Lian Shuo gently pulled Li Banxi towards him, and then caught the unknown object.

"What?" Li Banxi asked without realizing that she was still in Lian Shuo's arms.

"Seven Stars." Lian Shuo spread out his palms, and a piece of iron lay quietly in the center.

Li Banxi understood that Sao Qingniang didn't intend to live alone from the beginning, he took a few steps forward, squatted down, looked at Sao Qingniang in silence, and then opened the jar of fireflies.

When the jar was opened, the group of glowing little creatures flew out one by one, and then dozens of them flew out. For a while, the light in the cave gradually dimmed, and these hundreds of fireflies flew in the sky. On the surface of the water, there seemed to be little stars shining.

The scene was momentarily beautiful.

In the middle of the water, the isolated island could no longer be seen, only a white object attached to the surface of the water was faintly seen, and the object was so light that it said: "It's so beautiful! It's no regret to take a look at this before leaving, but it's a pity that I will see it later." It's not here..."

After that, there were only a few stars left on the surface of the water, which were the reflections of fireflies.

There was a moment of silence in the cave, and no one spoke.

Li Banxi lowered his head and closed the pot, only to find that there was already a large piece of moss on the ground. Looking along, the giant was crying, but covered his mouth with his hands.

"What's wrong?" Li Banxi gently took its hand away, "Why don't you dare to cry?"

The giant must have been choked up, and hiccupped, "I'm afraid it will cry when it hears me cry."

Li Banxi didn't know how to comfort it, but saw Lian Shuo, who had squatted down at some point, was touching the giant's head and said: "It won't cry, it and Tiannv are not dead! One of them is a god, the other is a spirit. They won't die, they're just tired, and they want to go down to sleep, but this sleep is a bit long."

The giant was still belching and hiccupping: "Really? When will it come out! From now on...will it stop raining?"

Li Banxi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, then stared at the water surface in a daze: "You said, did Ying Long ever love a goddess?"

Lian Shuo followed suit and looked over: "It must have been love! If it wasn't for love, how could you be so guilty that you dare not face it for thousands of years? It's just..."

"Just what?"

Li Banxi turned to look at him, and Lian Shuo also turned to him at the same time. For a while, Li Banxi seemed to be able to see his own shadow in Lian Shuo's eyes full of stars, only to hear the owner of these eyes say: "It's just that he loves you. Firm, not thorough, he loves half-heartedly. If I..."

"If I fall in love with someone and he leaves or loses him, I will find him no matter what, unless he tells me that he doesn't want me anymore and doesn't like me anymore, otherwise I will definitely find him."

Li Banxi was stunned for a moment, Lian Shuo, who usually looked like a magic stick, was so serious when he was so charming, and then he also smiled: "Well, I hope you don't have to look for him, he will take the initiative to come to you around."

Lian Shuo stopped talking, and showed Li Banxi his little tiger teeth that he usually hides. Well, he seems to be here.

Li Banxi lowered his head, picked up the giant and put it on his shoulders, stood up and said, "Let's go, it's not a bad ending."

"Yeah." Lian Shuo also picked up the monkey who hadn't spoken for a long time, and grabbed Li Banxi's sleeve with the other: "The cave is too dark, I have good eyesight, you follow behind."

Li Banxi didn't dodge, and followed him to the outside of the cave.

It was obvious that there had just been a heavy rain outside, and the air was filled with humidity. The flowers, plants and trees seemed to have been washed, exuding the original fragrance of the soil.

Li Banxi took a deep breath. The environment here is really good. Just when he was about to stretch his waist, he found a shallow mark on the ground. Although it was washed away by the heavy rain, it could be seen that it was a huge creature.

"This is..." Li Banxi squatted down to study. The footprints were huge and the front end was sharp, so it was inferred that the creature was huge and had sharp claws.

Lian Shuo also knelt down and said to the water-filled footprints that had turned into a pit: "If you guessed right, this should be Yinglong's footprints, and there is already water in the footprints, and the shape has been washed away. Almost, it should have come before the rain."

Li Banxi stared at the footprints for a moment, stood up and put the bamboo basket on his back: "Let's go! Go home."

Just as he was about to step out, he was held back by Lian Shuo, but just as Li Banxi turned around, a lotus leaf was forced into his hand.

"It has just rained. If you walked back like this, your shoes would have been dirty. I will carry you from the tree, and you will use the lotus leaf to block the rain from the leaves on the tree."

Lian Shuo said that he had already carried him on his back, and Xuan Xuan and the giant had already jumped into the bamboo basket and became uncles. Li Banxi saw that the path down the mountain had been washed into a stream by the rain, so he no longer refused.

Lian Shuo jumped lightly, and jumped down the mountain along several trees. Li Banxi saw that his red clothes were wet from the rain on the trees, and his hair was disheveled, so he put all the lotus leaves on his head.

Lian Shuo felt it too, and didn't stop, saying, "You don't have to hit me. I practiced martial arts since I was young, so it's okay. Didn't you get better a while ago? You should be frozen by the rain this time." what to do?"

"I'm not that weak, even if I don't practice martial arts, I'm still a man, and you don't treat me like a woman." Li Banxi still leaned the lotus leaf against him, "Even if you practice martial arts since childhood, you are strong and strong Like me, it is also made of bones and flesh, not iron. Even if you don’t catch cold, the rain will be cold and sticky on your body, which is very uncomfortable. You don’t have to worry about me, your back is very hot, and I can’t cool it. "

Lian Shuo was warmed by this remark. Indeed, even if he was bullied like that when he was young, if he was poured with cold water or hit with small stones, his life would not be affected.But no one cared. Although he wasn't sick, he was still in pain.The cold water poured on him, and he was shivering with only one piece of clothing, so he could only hide in the ruined temple and wear it until it dried up. Those small stones also made his body bruised and purple, and it hurt so much when he touched it. grimace in pain.

It seems that this person is really the noble person of his own destiny.

Lian Shuo suddenly remembered something, stopped on a relatively hard branch, turned his head and said: "By the way, I will go back in a few days, pack up my luggage and come back, you have to be careful these few days, don't go out Run around, be careful to recruit monsters."

Li Banxi patted his head: "Understood, you can go anyway, so you can go back and see your master, let's go, it's raining a lot on this tree."

"Really?" Lian Shuo obediently let him pat his head, and suddenly kicked hard on the tree trunk!

"Wow la la", a large piece of water poured down from the top of his head, Li Banxi hurriedly approached Lian Shuo's back desperately, and cursed: "How old are you kid, you still play this!"

And the lotus leaf was just the right size and unbiased, just covering the two of them and the bamboo basket behind them.

"Wow! It's raining again!" The giant opened his eyes wide, carefully catching the rain from the lotus leaves.

"Let's go!" Lian Shuo shouted, and started to leap among the branches again.

After the group left, the original cave gradually disappeared, and the love between the goddess and Yinglong was also buried in the cave.
