The Moon Kingdom hangs alone overseas, and the country has existed for thousands of years. It has never participated in the chaos and disputes on the other side.The royal family of the Yue Kingdom ruled the people with benevolence and love, and the people rested and recuperated. In addition, there was no war, and the whole country was peaceful.

Due to the favorable terrain of the Yue Kingdom, there has been no war disaster for thousands of years. Confucianism and Buddhism on the island have transformed the people, and the people of the Yue Kingdom have no desire to covet them. They should live happily and peacefully, but natural disasters disturb people.The Moon Country is almost surrounded by the sea, and every time it is hit by a hurricane, it is unspeakably miserable. The violent winds and rainstorms may bring huge waves, causing great damage wherever it goes, comparable to the scourge of war.

Since every full moon night, the evil wind and waves will be extremely fierce, so the residents on the island began to pray for the bright moon in the sky, hoping to get the blessing of the moon god.Over time, a priest in charge of Qiyue appeared in the country, and was supported by all people as the king. Later, the royal family of the Yue Kingdom inherited the blood of the pure moon, and each generation gave sacrifices.

However, although priests are respected and admired by people, they cannot be the rulers of the country, because every night when the moon is full, the wind will bring waves, and the priests will go to the coast to pray for the blessing of the moon god.The priests offered sacrifices with songs, dances, or music. Even so, most of the priests would die in misfortune, which was the ultimate fate of priests other than death from illness.And if the moon is hidden and the clouds are closed, and the priest is buried in the belly of the sea again, it will be a blood sacrifice. Every time this happens, the raging wind and waves will subside, like this for thousands of years.

Yan Lan

Priests of the Moon Kingdom enjoy supreme reverence, but they also always bear the fate of being swallowed by evil waves. Therefore, for thousands of years, the priests of the Moon Kingdom often died young, and they sacrificed their blood in the last sacrifice to appease the wrath of the Moon God.If the priests of the Moon Kingdom are over forty, they will step down as priests and pass on to their descendants, because it is rumored that the Moon God likes sacrifices of pure youth, so priests must always maintain their youthful and boyish bodies.

Despite this, there are very few priests in the Moon Kingdom who have lived past the age of 40, and when they leave office, they will be conferred the title of Son of the Pure Moon God, and then they can start a family and raise children, and live a peaceful life in the palace, because the priests are all from the Moon Kingdom Royal blood.However, there was a priest in the Moon Kingdom, who was affirmed by everyone before he left office, and awarded the title of Son of the Pure Moon, and took a treasure to wear. Yan Lan was 12 years old when he received the title.

Yan Lan, the Son of the Pure Moon God, is sung by the people of the Moon Kingdom every year, but those who have seen him are astonished as heavenly beings, and those who have never seen him in the Moon Kingdom call Yan Lan the Moon The incarnation of God came to bless the Moon Kingdom.Although the rumors are miraculous, in fact Yan Lan is just a mortal, a mortal who will die. Although Yan Lan seems to have jumped out of the fate of a priest, but at the end of his life, he fulfills the fate of a priest to be buried in the sea on a moonlit night.

The surname of Yue Guo is Yan.Yan Lan is the youngest son of Empress Qingling of Yue Kingdom.The night of Yan Lan's birth coincided with a sea storm attacking the Moon Country, and it happened to be the night of the full moon, so the wind and waves raged without bounds.It has been several days since the hurricane approached the shore, and the area near the shore was already in a mess, with countless residents killed and injured. At that time, Yan Jun, the priest of the Moon Kingdom, the eldest son of Empress Qingling, resolutely went to the boarding platform on the cliff by the sea to pray, praying for the blessing of the moon god, Go to disaster at the moment.

Yan Jun brought a qin and sat alone on the edge of the cliff, playing the qin and praying, but the sound of the qin was covered by the roaring waves and could not be heard at all.Empress Qingling was pregnant with Liujia at the time and was about to give birth, but such a big storm had never been encountered for many years. Empress Qingling was reluctant to part with her son, because she knew that it was very possible that Yan Jun would use her life to calm the moon god today. anger.So Empress Qingling ignored everyone's dissuasion, and followed her to the beach, looking up at the son who was alone against the monstrous waves.

The wind was very strong that night, and the mixed rain blew away the queen's canopy.The sky was getting darker and darker, the sky was full of clouds, and there was no moonlight.Yan Jun on the cliff kept playing the piano, but it seemed that his prayers did not receive any response from the Moon God.Suddenly a gust of wind blew by, and the rolled up turbulent waves slapped on the cliff, splashing thousands of feet of frost, reaching the sky, and then receding, everyone opened their eyes wet by the wind and rain to look, and there was no one on the cliff. .

Empress Qingling watched her son being swept away by the huge waves, feeling extremely sad. At this moment, she suddenly felt severe pain in her abdomen and fell to the ground.At that time, a gust of wind was chasing after a wave of sweepers off the coast, and the servant girl who was accompanying her saw that the queen was about to give birth, so she wanted to ask for help, but the wind and rain were so jealous that it was difficult to move.Just when the empress was alone and helpless, a baby's loud laughter broke through the air.

It was laughter. Empress Qingling gave birth to her fifth child right at the seaside where the storm was raging, and the first sound that child came into this world was not crying, but laughter.The queen took off her cloak and hugged the newborn baby, and her pure laughter pierced through the wind and rain and echoed across the coast.

At that time, everyone on the shore heard the laughter that was as crisp as silver bells, and they all saw the miracle that happened next.Apart from the sound of the priest Yan Jun's sacrifice on the cliff, there are many praying people on the inner coast, including the people who lost their homes, the officials of the Moon Kingdom who came for the sacrifice, and those who came to the Moon Kingdom with Queen Qingling. monarch.They are also praying at the beach, hoping that the moon god will show up and calm down the wind and rain.

At that time, the strong wind was mixed with dense rain, making people unable to keep their eyes open. The sound of the wind and waves crashing on the shore was filled in the ears, and the sound of the priest's zither was also drowned out, and it was almost inaudible, but the baby's laughter resounded through the sky .Everyone on the beach slowly opened their eyes, only to see a ray of light leaking from layers of thick clouds, and gradually the light diffused into one piece, the moonlight was like water, and the clear light scattered over the sea and sky.

Accompanied by the baby's laughter, the clouds cleared and the rain cleared, the wind subsided and the waves died down. Everyone was shocked at first, and then overjoyed. They all thought that the moon god had finally appeared. In the sky, it reflected the newborn baby in the hands of Empress Qingling.I saw the child's face was white and black, his eyes were piercing, his laughter was resonant, his little hands were pointing, and he was facing the bright moon in the sky.The raging storm subsided in an instant, and everyone said that the son born by the queen was the descendant of the moon god.Yan Ying carefully took the smiling baby, looked up at the empty cliff, and burst into tears.

The monarch Yanying looked at the moonlight shining on the sea, and the calm waves were slightly turbulent, so he named the baby Lan.Yan Lan, from the moment she was born, assumed the fate of a priest of the Moon Kingdom, because Yan Ying had only this son.And that year, Emperor Ziye was still in Zongjiao, at the age of seven, that night when the wind blew up and the North Sea surged, Ziye, who was playing in the palace, slipped and fell into the water, almost drowning in the North Sea Lake.

Empress Qingling gave birth to five children, the eldest son Yan Jun, who sacrificed his body to the moon at the age of 22, and three daughters, the youngest son Yan Lan, who shocked the world when he was born, inherited the priesthood.Empress Qingling was nearly forty years old when Yan Lan was born, and she knew that Yan Lan was her only son.Empress Qingling saw her eldest son being swallowed by the wind and waves with her own eyes, and her younger son was bound to suffer the same fate, so she doted on Yan Lan extraordinarily.

Yan Lan was just born, and his name has been spread throughout the Moon Kingdom. The people of the Moon Kingdom love the priests who sacrificed their lives for the country very much. Therefore, in many folk temples, people spontaneously enshrine Yan Lan's longevity ranking and pray for him.Life has been peaceful for 12 years. During these 12 years, every time the moon is full, Empress Qingling will take Yan Lan to the seaside to stop and look at the empty stage, which is also regarded as a sacrificial ceremony.And for the past 12 years, the weather in the Moon Kingdom has been smooth and the sea has been smooth, and everyone in the Moon Kingdom firmly believes that Priest Yan Lan is the moon god who came to protect the people of the Moon Kingdom.

After 12 years of happy growth, Yan Lan began to emerge, showing her extraordinary talent.The Moon Kingdom has remained aloof from the world for thousands of years, and its citizens are all elegant and happy. Even the people who work in the fields can sing scriptures and poems, and are proficient in instrumental music.As a priest, Yan Lan naturally couldn't escape the fate of studying dance and music hard, because these are to be used as sacrifices to the Moon God, and they are related to the happiness of the Moon Kingdom and the people, so it cannot be sloppy at all.

This would be a boring growth process, but Yan Lan is different. It is rumored that this priest laughed when he was born, and he could hum tunes before he could speak; he could dance gracefully before he could walk; Once I went to Zanglelou, and when I saw the piano, I fiddled with it curiously. Although it was out of order, the sound was pleasant to the ear; Unpredictable.Since Yan Lan was the only son of Yan Ying, the king of the Yue Kingdom at that time, Yan Ying, who had passed her destiny, was ready to be passed on to the clan's nephews, so Yan Lan was no longer forced to learn the way of governing the country.

Later, Yan Lan grew up carefree and carefree, and when she spoke the first sentence, the leaves fell silent, the birds were silent, and everyone was intoxicated by it.Yan Lan is very talented in learning music. With a little help, she can comprehend the essence of skills. By drawing inferences from one example and practicing diligently, she is proficient in all kinds of tools before she is 20 years old.Yan Lan grew up held in the palm of her hand, and everything went well until she was 12 years old.

When Yan Lan was 12 years old, the storm came to Yue Kingdom again, and it was even more violent. It brought the tide and came ashore, urging the fields to be destroyed and the people terrified.Because Priest Yan Lan was too young before, the previous sacrifice to Priest Yan Lan was just a symbolic observation of the sea.But now Yan Lan is 12 years old, and is said to be the descendant of the moon god, with extraordinary talent, so this time Yan Lan can no longer shirk the fate of climbing the cliff to sacrifice.

But what can a 12-year-old do?Yan Ying, the ruler of the Moon Kingdom, can govern the country benevolently and love the people, but he is helpless against this natural disaster and is forced by the situation.There is no way for Yan Ying to redeem the parent-child sacrifice to the moon. After all, the thousand-year-old patriarchal clan had to be opened.
