Dragon Fate of Shan Hai Ji

Zhao Yuan suddenly felt a strange feeling all over his body, and the dragon scales on the back of his neck had the urge to stand up.At this moment, it found that there was a girl in white sitting in this room that looked like the back hall of Leqing Palace.

She looked about thirteen or fourteen years old, with an unusually beautiful and delicate appearance, but she was expressionless, like a cold white jade statue, looking at them coldly with black crystal-like eyes.

Zhao Yuan could not help but pause.

Because, the girl on the roof is a phoenix.

Le Yue at the side also stopped, and calmly grabbed Zhao Yuan's wrist.

Zhike's assistant asked in surprise, "You two, what's the matter?"

Qing Yao smiled and said: "Oh, these two friends probably think that this house is different from other places."

The younger generation led Le Yue and the others to the front of the house. An old man with long beard stood on the porch, smiled and bowed to them: "There are guests coming from a long way, and you can't meet them in time, so don't blame them."

Le Yue traveled all the way, and the only person he saw in Linggu Village was wearing a long gown, so he knew that his identity must be above everyone else.Sure enough, the junior who led the way for them said: "This is the head of our village."

Le Yue and Qing Yao hurriedly expressed their disrespect.

The village chief said: "It's just a few years older, so I reluctantly take on this responsibility. In our village, there is no distinction between high and low. Guests are welcome. Please have tea in the house." Let them go to the side room.

Le Yue secretly glanced at the main hall, wondering if there is a well inside.

The girl on the roof was watching them from beginning to end.Zhao Yuan was on guard secretly until entering the house, the gaze of the Phoenix girl seemed to be still glued to their backs.

The furnishings in the wing room are very simple, just an old table and a few wooden chairs.

The village head personally holds a white porcelain teapot twisted into a handle with iron wire to serve tea to guests.

After seated in Luo, they exchanged names, the village chief's surname is Le Mingsong, and upon hearing Le Yue's name, he immediately smiled and said, "It's such a coincidence that all the people in our village are named Le, so some people outside also call our village Lejiazhuang. Qing Yao said: "Then maybe brother Yue and senior were still of the same clan 500 years ago. "

Le Yue hurriedly said: "That's not true. The younger generation is from the Xuan Dao sect and belongs to the Lezi generation. In fact, the younger generation's original surname is Li."

Le Song smiled and said: "I see."

Zhao Yuan looked at the village head carefully, but he didn't find immortality in him.Qing Yao talked with him about the places of interest and customs in various places. The village chief knew a lot, and he had a great time chatting with Qing Yao. Le Yue occasionally interjected a word or two. Through the roof, still staring at himself.

Zhao Yuan moved uncomfortably, and looked at a bamboo curtain in the corner of the room, which led to the next room. There was another mortal's breath in the room, which seemed to be a woman too.

While chatting, a young young man walked to the door and cupped his fists respectfully.Le Song stood up and said apologetically, "The three of you, please sit here. I won't accompany you for a while, I will come as soon as you go." He walked to the corner of the room with the young man, opened the bamboo curtain, and entered the inner room.

Their voices were very low, but naturally they couldn't escape Zhao Yuan's ears. Since Le Yue ate Lin Jing's scales, his eyesight and hearing were extraordinary, and he could hear clearly.

The younger generation said: "Song Weng, those two people have been settled in the guest room."

The village head sighed: "Forget it, it's just that their family members may be seriously ill. If they can't be saved, what should they do?"

A weak female voice said softly: "Even if we can't save them, we always try our best. Since the gods are willing to use our hands to save sentient beings, why don't they do more meritorious deeds?"

The younger generation interjected: "Yes, Song Weng, the two of them this time are poor people, and there is another young master who came with them, a young master from a rich family, so we didn't let him in."

The village chief sighed and said: "Qing'er, you are saving more and more people, and I am always uneasy. Our family worships the gods and keeps here for generations. This is the destiny. Don't ask too much about secular matters. People in the world are greedy, and it may lead to catastrophe."

The woman said: "Grandpa, don't worry, I know how to measure. Birds and beasts will mourn when they see their own people in trouble, let alone humans? Helping those in need is also our merit."

The younger generation immediately followed up and said: "Song Weng, it doesn't matter if you save one or two people occasionally, right? The people who came to rescue are really pitiful... I heard when I came here just now, that we didn't let the rich young man who entered the village, Still kneeling at the entrance of the village, alas."

The village chief said solemnly: "It is too much to let two people into the village today, that young master... well, please leave immediately."

The young man hurriedly said: "I know."

Le Yue and Zhao Yuan looked at each other in surprise. They thought that the people of Linggu Village were deliberately putting on airs and refusing to save people, but after listening to the words of the class, they realized that the villagers had difficulties.

Qing Yao compared to the direction of the door, and said in a low voice: "Have you heard that, you two?"

Le Yue and Zhao Yuan nodded.

Holding the tea bowl, Qing Yao showed a thoughtful expression: "This Linggu Village seems to be getting more and more interesting."

Zhao Yuan was about to speak when he suddenly shivered.The phoenix girl in white who was standing on the roof was standing in front of the door, looking at them coldly.

The girl walked into the room step by step, and Zhao Yuan tensed up on guard.The girl glanced at Le Yue and Qing Yao, locked on it, and raised her chin: "Hey dragon, where did you come from?"

This is in a dream, or it may have been more than 400 years ago. The dragon and the wind have not yet had their enemies. This girl is not the Maid God, but another phoenix.So, maybe she didn't mean anything?Zhao Yuan was confused.

The girl stared at Zhao Yuan, and asked, "Why didn't you answer? I've been here for many years, and I've never seen a fairy clan. Could it be that you were sent by the Heavenly Court? What are you doing here?"

Qing Yao said, "This girl..."

As soon as he spoke, the bamboo curtain in the corner of the room was lifted, and the village chief and the young man walked in together, looked at them in surprise and said, "Why are you all standing?"

Qing Yaole drank more and Zhao Yuan didn't know how to answer for a while.

The young man said his farewell, turned to leave, and the village head said with a smile: "I'm being negligent, are you a little anxious? It's a sin." He cupped his hands and asked Le Yue to sit down again. From the beginning to the end, he looked like the phoenix girl It doesn't exist.

Zhao Yuan looked at the village head in amazement, then at the young girl, the young girl snorted, "Ordinary people can't see me." She looked at Le Yue and Qingyao, "But these two ordinary people seem to be able to see me? "It's really strange.

Zhao Yuan scratched his head, and the village chief looked at it suspiciously: "This young master?"

Qing Yao immediately said with a smile: "After traveling so much, this is the first time I saw such a leisurely paradise scene. I was a little lost in thought for a while, senior." Then he used this as a topic, and started chatting with the village chief again.

After Qing Yao attracted the attention of the village chief, Zhao Yuan used spells to quietly chat with the girl: "We were passing by."

The girl simply sat down on the chair opposite Zhao Yuan, stared at Zhao Yuan, with a look of disbelief on her face: "Passing by? Which fairy are you, Long, why are you passing by here?"

Zhao Yuan replied: "I'm not a fairy, I'm just an ordinary dragon, I haven't been to heaven, they are my friends."

The girl frowned: "Being friends with mortals? You are so strange."

Zhao Yuan took the opportunity to ask her: "Why are you here?"

The girl sighed old-fashionedly: "It's hard to say. I have been here many, many years ago. I will probably stay here forever."

Zhao Yuan couldn't help asking: "Why?"

The girl glanced at it: "The secret must not be revealed. What if you have ulterior motives?"

Zhao Yuan let out an oh, and honestly stopped asking.The girl looked at it with her chin resting for a moment, then frowned impatiently: "Why don't you talk anymore?"

Zhao Yuan said helplessly: "You told me not to ask more questions."

The girl looked at it bitterly: "Then you can say something else, by the way, Long, what's your name?"

Zhao Yuan reported his name, and then asked the girl's name, the girl said, "My name is Bai Zhi. This name was chosen by Nv Jiutianxuan for me. How about it, it sounds nice."

Zhao Yuan hurriedly praised her very nicely, Le Yue secretly glanced at Bai Zhi, thinking to herself, no wonder she is so arrogant and has such a big background.

Zhao Yuan then asked: "Is the holy lady in this village you?"

Bai Zhi said: "I don't like old-fashioned names like Shenggu, of course it's not me. These mortals can't see me, but it can also be said to be me."

Baizhi nodded lightly: "Your Majesty said, one day, when it completely disappears and never appears again, I can return to the Heavenly Court, but it has been like this for so many years. I think, Maybe I'll never go back."

She looked a little sad, looking at the sky outside the door.

Zhao Yuan looked at her sympathetically: "You can't even go out to play secretly? Didn't Tianting send anyone to accompany you?"

Bai Zhi raised her wrist, silver chains were tied on her hands and ankles: "The people in this village are guarding here with me during the times." She looked at Zhao Yuan with clear eyes, "When are you leaving? "

Zhaoyuan was a little hard to answer, he didn't know how long Qingyao planned to stay here, nor when he would leave the dream with Le Yue.

Bai Zhi straightened her face: "When you are here, I will keep an eye on you to prevent you from acting abnormally. I warn you, don't make any wrong thoughts, otherwise I will definitely make you look bad. Zhao Yuan suffers from being in the village Under the long eyelids, you can't make strange actions or expressions, you can only promise repeatedly. The girl stood up, and walked out with a cold attitude like when she first came. When she walked to the door, she suddenly turned her head: " Hey, dragon, if you are bored, I allow you to come and chat with me. "

The village head and Qing Yao had a very happy chat, and they stayed in the village, and asked the young man who had just brought them here to take them to the guest room to settle down, and then prepare dinner.

When leaving the house, Zhao Yuan looked back, Bai Zhi was still sitting on the ridge, hugging his knees, staring at it quietly.

The young man was very reticent, Le Yue chatted with him, and only asked his name was Le Yong, according to his seniority, he was the nephew of the village chief, Le Yong, who led them to a small courtyard surrounded by a bamboo fence, and pushed the bamboo fence away. The door of the courtyard, and said loudly: "Aunt Nine, I brought the guests here. A middle-aged woman hurried out of the hut in the courtyard, wiped her hands on her apron, and said: "We are preparing dinner, and the guests have come up. "Laughing to Qingyao Leyue Zhao Yuan blessed himself, "The place is small, please bear with me. "

Qing Yao Le Yue and Zhao Yuan did not dare to speak together.

Le Yongdao: "Aunt Nine, these three are distinguished guests, Song Weng will host a banquet tonight, so you don't need to prepare dinner for the three of them."

Ninth Aunt agreed and let them into the house.The hut is small, but the inside is very clean.Next to the inner wall is a brick bunk, covered with clean old bamboo mats, with three pillows and three thin quilts arranged in a row.

Le Yue pulled a stool and sat down at the table next to the big shop. A fat three-colored cat entered the room in a big way, rubbed against Zhao Yuan's feet, and jumped onto its lap familiarly.

Bai Lichen's burly figure appeared in front of the door, and he laughed loudly: "When I heard three more people coming, I guessed whether it was three or not, and sure enough."

Bai Lichen and the old man surnamed He were brought here to live here early in the morning.Qing Yao asked them if they had seen the holy aunt and got the medicine, and Bai Lichen shook his head: "It is said that the holy aunt will ask the gods at night to know if she can save people. Let us wait here first. Forget it, just wait, it's better than That Mr. Mu who can't even enter the door is much stronger."

Not long after, Elder He also sighed: "When we met on the road, Mr. Mu looked confident, and I thought he had figured it out and figured it out. But I didn't expect... oh, what is it? Young man. Elder He knows a lot about Linggu Village. Qing Yao and Le Yue talked about meeting the village chief just now. Qing Yao said: "Look at Song Weng's age is only fifty, and he already has many grandchildren . "

Mr. He coughed twice, laughed hoarsely and said, "Pentary?"The village head is at least eighty years old.The Le Jiuniang who entertained us was also his grand-niece, and the younger generation who brought us into the village were the youngest among his grandchildren.

Le Yue was surprised. The village head, Le Song, had black beard and hair, few wrinkles on his face, and a brisk walk. No matter how he looked at it, he was not sticky to his 80-year-old age.

Bai Lichen sighed: "Longevity Village is really unusual. Could it be that the saint is hundreds of years old?"

He Lao half closed his eyes: "That's not true. Anyway, since I have entered the village, I might as well tell everyone what I know."

He Lao said: "The saints in Linggu Village are all women who never marry, and their life expectancy is the same as that of ordinary Linggu villagers. Aunt named Nvfeng. After the last recognition of Nvfeng's death, the village head and village elders will jointly select girls aged three to six in the village and send them to the shrine for verification. Those who can sense the divine will will be It's the successor girl. This girl looks like the granddaughter of the village chief. Le Yue and Zhao Yuan glanced at each other, thinking of the woman in the room behind the bamboo curtain. I'm afraid she's a holy lady. Feeling the spirit, Could it be that he could perceive Baizhi's existence? When it was dark, Le Yong came to pick up Le Yue and the others with a lantern. When he came to a fork in the road, he heard a noise from afar, and Le Yong stopped a passerby to ask. : "Mu Lun, who didn't enter the village, tried to climb over the wall and enter the village, but when he was discovered, the younger generations were throwing him out of the village.Qing Yao said: "I would like to say more, saving one is saving, saving two is also saving, that Mr. Mu was on the same road as us, he has a mellow character, he is a gentleman, his heart to save his mother is sincere, and his filial piety is commendable. Why can't we make an exception and let him enter the village?"

Le Yong said bluntly: "Our village has its own rules."

Qing Yao sighed and said no more.

When I went to the village chief's house, the meals had already been prepared. Because Qingyao came from a sect of preaching, there was a table of plain seats.The food is unique and delicious, and the wine is also home-brewed rice wine in the village, which is mellow and sweet.

During the dinner, Yue Yue couldn't help but bring up Mu Lun's matter again, interceding for him, the village chief blurted it out with a few words, and finally said: "The guests don't know, when we were in the village when we were in the village, It is to act according to the will of the heavens, and not to interfere with the strange things outside the village, otherwise it will cause disaster, and I hope the guests will understand."

It's not good for Le Yue to say anything more.Zhao Yuan has never found any trace of Bai Zhi, so he ate silently.

In the evening, they went back to Aunt Nine to rest. The people in Linggu Village went to work at sunrise and rest at sunset. It was just the beginning of the watch, and the whole village was closed, with no lights, and fell asleep.

Le Yue lay on the big bunk and closed his eyes. This was the first time he slept in a dream, and he found it quite novel. He didn't know whether he would return to the reality 400 years later after closing his eyes, or enter a dream within a dream.

In the haze, Le Yue heard the sound of noisy fighting, and Lin Jing's voice shouting: "Le Yue, Le Yue!" There seemed to be another voice, he struggled to open his eyes, and his left chest was burning and tingling , the body seemed to be tightly entangled by something, and when he was struggling endlessly, someone suddenly patted his shoulder.

Le Yue jumped up in a jerk, someone pressed her shoulder and hissed, and Qingyao's voice whispered in his ear: "Brother Yue, listen."

Le Yue regained his composure, only to find that he was still in the thatched hut in Linggu Village, with the desolate sound of the flute and the cold moonlight, sneaking into the house through the gaps in the windows and doors, weeping.

Le Yue and Zhao Yuangen got up gently behind Qing Yao, quietly opened the door and walked out of the small courtyard.The whole Linggu Village is as silent as a tomb, as if the only sound of the sad flute is alive in the world.

They followed the sound of the flute all the way, walked along the winding brick road to the entrance of the village, and suddenly heard a faint sigh, vaguely a woman's voice.
