48 Saint Maiden 41
The birds chirped in unison, the fish belly appeared white in the sky, and Chen Qinghuan, who woke up, had no idea what happened last night and was doing his daily washing.
Uncle Yu brought breakfast to the table, he didn't have to go up the mountain to collect medicine today, he could have a good rest at home, there were two more people in the family, and both of them would help him do some work within their ability, which made him a lot easier.
"The meal is ready, come and eat. ”
"Here comes Uncle Yu. After Chen Qinghuan washed his face, he wrung out Xiao Lun's handkerchief and handed it to him, and Xiao Lun naturally took it over to wash.
The three of them are as harmonious as a mountain village idyll, if it weren't for the two of them being too expensive, they would really be like a family of three in the mountains.
Yu Bo drank porridge, squinting his eyes as if he was recalling something, "Did you hear a strange sound last night?" The old man's sleep was shallow, and he was not as unaware as Chen Qinghuan.
Hearing Uncle Yu's question, Xiao Lun frowned slightly, the kind of thing in his heart that shouldn't be said polluted her ears, "There were rats in the room last night, but they have been driven away by me." ”
Chen Qinghuan was eating breakfast quickly, looking forward to it from yesterday to today, just wanting to go up the mountain to the holy spring quickly, and didn't care about what happened last night, "Mouse? I'm not afraid of mice, but be careful of the food at home, don't let the rats and beasts steal it." ”
"Then I'll make a few fences today, and there will be no wild beasts in the village, so you can rest assured. Yu Bo knew that it was definitely not a mouse, and judging from the traces left in the house, someone should have sneaked into their room, but was kicked out by the little boy.
Chen Qinghuan had already eaten seven points full, and she was a little worried that she ran into the two people yesterday again, so she asked Uncle Yu, "Uncle Yu, did those two people on the mountain go to the top of the mountain every day to collect medicine?"
"Which two?" interjected, "Did anything happen yesterday?"
Chen Qinghuan was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that Xiao Lun didn't know about it, "Yesterday, when I picked medicine, there were two people who wanted to snatch Yu Bo's Ganoderma lucidum, but then they got out by themselves." ”
Xiao Lun's face became ugly, and he said sincerely to Uncle Yu: "Uncle Yu, in the future, I will bring two more self-defense items for medicine, and when my eyes are better, I will accompany you." Speaking of which, there is no magistrate in this village, can he let others run rampant. ”
How could the royal family in the palace know about the suffering and chaos of the people, there are many places like this that have no law and discipline and are not managed, as soon as these words came out, Yu Bo was sure in his heart that they must be among the nobles.
Yu Bo replied: "Don't worry, little boy, I and the other two people in the village are doctors, and no one usually bullies me, an old man." ”
"As for the two brothers whom the girl asked, they are the sons of one of the doctors in the village, and as far as I know, they take medicine once every three days. ”
Two brothers, hearing this, Xiao Lun always felt that he was talking about the two people last night.
Hearing that they would not appear, Chen Qinghuan relieved his heart, got up and said, "I want to go to the top of the mountain again to have a look, and I will come back before noon." ”
After speaking, she didn't need to bring anything, she just left and walked out, and Yu Bo and Xiao Lun told her to be careful.
said that he would not meet, just in case, Chen Qinghuan directly led the black horse up the mountain today, walking slowly with one person and one horse, the early morning was wet, and the ground under his feet became soft.
When she came to the top of the mountain, there was no one around, and after tying up her horse, she couldn't wait to walk to the holy spring.
The surface of the holy spring is as calm as a mirror, and when the fish scales enter the water, a layer of ripples is formed. Just like yesterday's situation, the fish scales emitted a subtle light as soon as they touched the holy spring, and a circle of words formed by waves appeared on the wall of the well, which was the script of the Western Regions, which made it a little difficult for her to read.
After being speechless for a long time, reading from top to bottom, Chen Qinghuan's expression could no longer be described as dumbfounded, with sadness and anger in her eyes, she couldn't imagine that there was such a story behind the noble Ningxia saintess.
The scales were withdrawn from her hand, and she couldn't come back to her senses, and her heart was too shocked.
Hundreds of years ago, Ningxia drought for many years, almost relying on the relief of other countries barely supported, at that time the village of the Holy Maiden was not a village of the Holy Maiden, just a barren land full of dry grass, one day, on the top of the mountain actually came out of a pool of clear water, with this gurgling stream, the whole dead mountain just a few days of grass warbler flying, a new look.
From this newborn mountain, a peerless and beautiful woman slowly walked out, she was dressed in white, and a huge pearl hung on her chest, like an immortal.
She walked all the way from here to Ningxia, where thunderstorms fell and clear springs came out, and when she traveled all over Ningxia, Ningxia was reborn.
These are the legends that most people have heard, and they are indeed true.
Soon, the lord of the country found the woman who saved the country and invited her to come to the palace to respect her as a saint who protects the country and protects the people, and then the woman said that she is not a mortal, but a dragon girl.
She was originally a carp born in the mountains and wilderness, and after hundreds of years of cultivation, she became a refinement, and after hundreds of years, she jumped over the dragon gate and evolved into a dragon girl.
Although she can't call the wind and rain like the son of the orthodox dragon king, it is enough to make the wind and rain in this place, so when she learned that the place where she was born was in a great drought, she returned to that place, which is now the village of saints.
The lord of the kingdom begged her to stay in Ningxia, otherwise as soon as she left, Ningxia would soon suffer from a great drought, and the dragon girl relented, and this was her hometown, so she agreed.
This is the origin of the first Yongan Holy Maiden.
The dragon girl stayed in the Ningxia Palace, and there was no natural disaster in Ningxia, and after a long time, she fell in love with a guard in the palace for a long time, married in private, and gave birth to a daughter.
After understanding love, the dragon girl wanted to leave Ningxia with the guards, but the lord refused, so the dragon girl told him that her descendants had the blood of the dragon girl, and as long as her daughter took over as the next saint, she could still protect Ningxia from wind and rain.
Hearing this, the lord of the country agreed to let the dragon girl leave, but at the inheritance ceremony of the holy maiden, the dragon girl recognized at a glance that the baby girl was not her daughter, so it was originally just a ceremony to go through the motions, but the dragon girl suddenly set the rules, enter the spring with blood, and drink the holy water in order to become a real saint.
Therefore, the baby girl died, suffered cardiac arrest on the spot, and died silently.
How can mortals drink the blood of immortals?
Seeing this, Chen Qinghuan's heart fluctuated violently, it turned out that Dao Ruoshui actually died like this. No one had any intention of harming her from the beginning, and she was like the baby girl in the story, because she was a substitute, so she died innocently.
It's really ridiculous, Dao Ruoshui died unjustly, and no one in Ao Yu Ningxia is at fault, which makes her defense of Ao Yu seem particularly funny, and Emperor Yanguo, who really wants to harm her all these years, she didn't notice it at all, and she sighed with relief.
I don't know if she didn't replace Dao Ruoshui, Sheng An's plan would be exposed, and what the situation would be now.
The story is not over, the baby girl died, the lord of the country learned that the matter was revealed, so he had to hand over the real baby dragon girl, it turned out that he was fascinated by the ghost, and planned to hide the baby dragon girl privately, so that she would grow up to obey her words and spread the branches for Ningxia.
The dragon girl was angry, originally pity Ningxia to leave her daughter, and now vow to take her daughter to leave together, the lord of the country threatens the life of the guard, and wants her to inherit it again, the holy woman is already the belief in the hearts of the people, if this matter is revealed to the world, then Ningxia is no different from destroying the country.
The dragon girl was in a dilemma for a while, but finally chose her husband, and the inheritance ceremony ended, and Ningxia had a new saint, and it will be passed on forever.
The matter is finally over, and the dragon girl thinks that she can finally leave with her lover, but after returning to the palace, all her dreams and longings are shattered.
There was only a cold corpse in front of him.
The lord of the kingdom did not intend to let them go at all, the guard died, she was also ambushed by the lord of the kingdom, and finally, she rushed to her daughter with a serious injury, she imprinted these deeds in one of her dragon scales, stuffed it into her daughter's hand, and died of anger.
Naturally, the lord of the country will not leave any evidence for such dirty things, and those who know about this matter will be killed one by one.
A hundred years have passed, people have long been unaware of what happened back then, and over time, the saint has not been as valued by the royal family as it was back then, but the people are in awe of the saint in their hearts, and they have carried out this inheritance ceremony.
The truth ended here, Chen Qinghuan was extremely shocked, there were countless ugly things in the palace, compared to this matter, she even felt that Yan Xici framed herself was not so serious.
Of course, if she hadn't escaped from Yeonkoku, then her fate would be no different from that of the Dragon Maiden now.
The dragon girl is dedicated to goodness, helping others for pleasure, but there is no good ending, the world wants good people to always be good people, but how do you treat their goodness?
Chen Qinghuan knelt down in front of the holy spring, solemnly kowtowed three times, and buried this beautiful silver dragon scale next to the spring.
Ears are refreshing mountain breeze, it seems to be mixed with the sound of the stream, in this beautiful mountain and clear water, in front of her eyes appeared a moving picture, it is a dragon girl dressed in white, she smiled, stepping on the clear spring.
The sinister world is not worthy of her kindness.
Chen Qinghuan suddenly ignited his fighting spirit, he thought that the saint was a noble person who was admired, but he didn't expect that even Ningxia itself only used them as a tool to use them, and the title of the saint was time to disappear.
