Chapter 510: The So-Called Legend

"It's so interesting!" Li Ling looked very excited, she grew up in Chongqing City, she had seen too many lively scenes, but this kind of ancient temple fair had never been experienced.

"Later, there will be a visit to the master, and the mutton will be divided, whether you are from the town or not, you can go over and get a piece of mutton. When he said this, Ye Huang couldn't help but show a smile.

"What are you laughing at?" Li Ling asked.

"I just remembered that when I was a child, I and Uncle Xiao came over to eat mutton at this point, and after eating one serving, we were at the end of the line, and the uncle who divided the mutton at the back knew the two of us. Ye Huang said.

"You always mention Uncle Xiao, Uncle Xiao, I'm a little curious about what kind of person your Uncle Xiao is. Li Ling asked, "This time I went to Shaolin Temple with you, can I see your little uncle?"

Ye Huang's expression suddenly became lonely, he shook his head and said helplessly: "I can't see it." ”

"Eh? ”

"Uncle Xiao, he has been away from Shaolin Temple for more than three years. ”

"Like you, going down the mountain to practice?"

"I don't know, Uncle Xiao disappeared for no reason, didn't leave any news, didn't tell us where he went, and how long it would take to come back. Ye Huang said.

Li Ling rarely saw the look of missing someone so much from Ye Huang's eyes, and she asked, "Are you worried about your junior uncle?"

"It's not worrying about worrying. "Just kidding, I'm worried about Uncle Xiaoshi!? Uncle Xiao is the person in this world who admires Ye Huang the most, and even the master has to be photographed behind Uncle Xiao. With Uncle Xiao's strength, he can go anywhere in this world, and any danger is not dangerous to Uncle Xiao, so Ye Huang is not worried about Uncle Xiao at all, it's just ...... I just miss it.

"It's a pity, I thought I would be able to see the little uncle who was chattering in your mouth this time?"

"It's not like Uncle Xiao is not coming back, I believe Uncle Xiao will come back one day. Ye Huang said very firmly: "Maybe he just has his own things to do now, and he hasn't done it yet, so he hasn't come back." ”

"Are you so sure?"

"Of course, because Uncle Xiao promised me that he would take me to eat all the roast chicken in the world. Ye Huang said: "So, he will definitely come back." ”

Fortunately, Li Ling was sure that Ye Huang was a man, and he was definitely not gay, otherwise, when she saw Ye Huang mention the little uncle, the look of worship in her eyes, she would definitely think that Ye Huang was in love with her little uncle, and she felt terrible when she thought about it, two bald monks or something...... It's not aesthetic at all.

While Ye Huang and Li Ling were gossiping, the procession carrying the golden body of the old man had already reached the entrance of the town, and all the residents who were silent around the bonfire instantly became active.

At this time, Li Ling finally knew why the sedan chair was four or five meters wide, because at this time, these residents didn't know where to take out all kinds of tributes and threw them on the sedan chair.

While throwing it, he was still praying loudly.

"Sir, bless next year will be a good harvest!"

"Sir, bless my family with a safe and sound next year. ”

The sedan chair carrying the golden body of the old man walked around the bonfire a few times, and the sedan chair was already full of tributes.

Seeing that Li Ling was eager to try, Ye Huang asked the townspeople next to him for a few corns, handed them to Li Ling and said, "If you want to throw it away, just throw it away." ”

After taking the corn, Li Ling threw it on the sedan chair, one of them accidentally smashed the strong man who carried the sedan chair, the strong man glared back at Li Ling, Li Ling made an apologetic gesture, made a grimace and stuck out his tongue, the strong man did not get angry when he saw this, and gave Li Ling a smile.

"Why don't you try it yourself?" Li Ling shook the two remaining corns in his hand and said to Ye Huang.

Ye Huang waved his hand and said, "Have you ever seen a monk go to worship Sanqing?"

"Like...... I really haven't seen it, but didn't you say that you yourself are not a monk?" Li Ling said.

"Uh, why are you drilling my horns at this time? ”

"It's clear that you're slapping yourself in the face. Li Ling shrugged his shoulders and said, "The sedan chair is already full of tribute, what do you have to do next?"

"See for yourself. ”

After the palanquin was filled with tribute, the golden body of the old man was carried to a high platform built at the entrance of the town. After the old man's golden body landed, more than a dozen strings of firecrackers were lit around the high platform at the same time, and all the fireworks around him also bloomed.

For a moment, the whole town was covered with the sound of firecrackers and fireworks, and in the flickering light, the townspeople showed happy smiles.

"Eh, why is it that after the old man's golden body landed, these people seemed to be relieved?" In the midst of the hustle and bustle, Li Ling leaned into Ye Huang's ear and asked.

"Well, that's a long story......"

Because it was a long story, Ye Huang roughly told Li Ling about the legend of the lord in this town. Of course, the legend that Ye Huang knew also learned from Uncle Xiaoshi.

Legend has it that a long time ago, this town would be invaded by a white-haired monster every winter, and the white-haired monster would eat the town's cattle and sheep, and even eat people! The people of the town could not solve the problem by many means, until a mysterious man came to the town and promised the townspeople that the white-haired monster would be solved. After that, the mysterious man stayed alone at the entrance of the town for seven days and seven nights. It wasn't until the snowy night of the seventh day that the white-haired monster finally came to the town, and in the presence of everyone, the mysterious man defeated the white-haired monster and killed him on the spot!

The mysterious man became the hero of the town, and in order to prevent other white-haired monsters from invading the town, someone made a statue of the mysterious man and placed it at the entrance to the town.

Later, as time passed, the statue of the mysterious man was worshipped as a patron saint by the people of the town, and a temple was built on a small hill two kilometers from the town. Every winter, they have to welcome back to the town, and why did it gradually evolve into the day before the New Year's Day...... It is because at this time, many young people who went out in the town have returned, and it is the most crowded and lively thing in the town, so this day was chosen.

"All legends of gods and demons are formed through people's legends. The so-called white-haired monster may just be a white ape on the mountain, or a white wolf, and that mysterious person may be a chivalrous warrior. Ye Huang said: "It's just that in the passage of time, it has slowly become what it is now." ”

"Poof......" Li Ling suddenly laughed. Sure enough, covering her mouth and smiling was not suitable for her, she immediately laughed exaggeratedly, even in the sound of firecrackers, it was particularly obvious, "Hahahahahaha......"

"What are you laughing at? What I said, is it funny?"
