Chapter 002: The boy who fell into the water soaked in two siblings

To the north of the Shuchuan River, patches of rice paddies are interlaced with mottled dirt roads, and wooden houses of different heights are located from far to near.

The scorching sunlight shines through the treetops of the towering trees, and the ground reflects the mottled shadows of the trees.

In Fangtan, the fish that were originally playing were frightened back by a few fluttering waves.

A pair of straight nose bridges set off two sword eyebrows straight through the sideburns, a pair of angular lips, white teeth between the lips biting a straw, the young man drilled out of the deep pool, and behind him there was a man with rolling eyes and watery mouth.

The breeze blows through the willow treetops nearby, the branches and leaves are dancing, dressed in linen cloth, full of childishness, the girl who is about six or seven years old is looking into the distance with a pair of big watery eyes, her hands are waving, as if signaling the young man out of the water.

The boy went ashore and threw the drowning man to the ground, gasping for breath and stretching.

"Brother, he didn't drown!" The little girl looked up at the young man's slightly curved but clean face.

A few breezes blew across the clearing, and the young man took off his shirt, bare and wrung out his water-seeping clothes.

"Almost, it's lucky, silly boy, jumping into a deep pool, it's just dead." The boy turned his back to his sister and took the straw in his mouth with his hand, and muttered in his mouth.

"Strange, how did I see him flying down from the sky, it doesn't seem like he jumped down." The little girl pursed her lips, rolled her eyes, glanced at the drowning man, thought for a while, looked back at her brother, and said.

"How is it possible, Erya, you must have read it wrong, just him, still flying, he is not an immortal in the sky, how can he fly down from the sky." The young man shook his head again and again, looked at his sister, only to feel that his sister was full of nonsense, could it be that he was faint from hunger, so he stepped forward and pinched his sister's little face and questioned.

"I'm not mistaken, I just read it right, he flew down from the sky, if you don't believe me, forget it, and pinch my face, from childhood to adulthood, you have bullied me." Seeing that her brother didn't believe her, Erya raised her head, pursed her mouth, puffed out her cheeks, and said angrily.

"Okay, okay, I won't fight with you, don't be angry, I'll wait for him to wake up and ask." When the boy saw that his sister was angry, he did not want to argue anymore.

The young man approached the drowning man, squatted down, pressed his stomach, and as soon as he exerted his strength, he grunted, and a large amount of water flowed from the corner of his mouth, followed by a gasp: Ah!

"I really didn't expect it, this kid can drink more than a frog, a stomach full of water." The boy pressed his stomach back and forth seven or eight times before the drowning man vomited all the water in his abdomen, and after vomiting, he moaned on the spot, as if he was conscious.

"Brother, brother, he's awake, he's awake." Erya shook her brother's arm.

"I saw it, and I wasn't blind, he was only conscious now, and he wasn't fully awake yet, and it would take a while before he regained consciousness." The boy looked at the man in front of him who was about his own age, and waited quietly for him to wake up.

"W-where is it?" An extremely faint voice came from Qin Yue's mouth, and his eyes barely opened a slit, and he vaguely saw two strange figures, strange environment.

Slowly, my head was like a fly, and my ears were ringing, shouldn't I have been next to a dry well with Qing Shui before, why was I suddenly here, what the hell is this place, what's going on?

in memory.

A boy and a monk are sitting upright in a hilltop hut.

"Qing Shui, you called me, I don't know what it is?" Qin Yue looked at the old monk in front of him.

Qing Shui shook his white robe, stood up from the chair, looked Qin Yue up and down, and nodded slowly, as if it was a kind of recognition.

"Now that you have grown up, I will take you somewhere."

"Place! Where to? ”

"There's a dry well on the top of the mountain, do you know?"

Qin Yue nodded.

"That well has been dry for many years, and in the past few days there has been water at the bottom of the well, so you have to go and see it."

"There is such a thing." Qing Shui's words quickly attracted Qin Yue.

When I got out of the hut and down the stairs, it was already pitch black outside, and the top of the mountain was always darker than the bottom of the mountain.

Qing Shui carried a lone lamp and stepped on the stone road on the top of the mountain, followed by Qin Yue.

There was a mottled clearing not far away, and Qing Shui pointed to it and said, "The well is there." ”

"Hey, there is really water, it's so strange, and dry wells can survive!" Qin Yue stepped forward to take a look.

Qing Shui put the lone lamp by the well, tidied up his robe a little, sat down, and said, "This well also has a legend. ”

"Legends." Qin Yue was curious.

"Yes, legend has it that every three hundred years that this dry well dries up, it will come to life, and the spring water will inexplicably emerge from the well, and the first scoop of water is quite miraculous." Qing Shui took advantage of the situation to pick up the lone scoop by the well and stretched it into the well.

"It's just ordinary well water, how can it be miraculous." Qin Yue didn't believe it.

"I've heard that after drinking it, everyone gets something different."

"Got it, it's different, have you drunk it?"

Qin Yue and Qing Shui asked and answered, their eyes facing each other.

"No, do you want to try?" After Qing Shui finished speaking, he handed over the lone scoop full of well water in his hand.

Qin Yue hesitated for a while, but still took it, looking at the reflection of the clear water in the lonely scoop with a bright moon, the breeze gently stirred up a trace of waves, and simply raised her head and drank it cleanly.

The well water was slightly sweet, the wind rubbed against the tight cloth, Qin Yue put the lonely scoop back in place, only to find that Qing Shui was staring into the distance.

"What are you looking at?" Qin Yue was curious.

Qing Shui pointed his finger into the distance, but he could look in the direction of his finger, and it was pitch black, and there was no light.

"It's black like this, does it look good?" Qin Yue was puzzled.

"Is it black, is it the heart black or the scene black?" Shimizu asked.

"Is there a difference?"

"Of course, you must understand that no matter how dark this world is, your heart can't be black."

"Why?"

"Because once the heart is dark, it is destined to go on."

Qin Yue pondered, slowly looked at Qing Shui, only to feel that a lightning bolt suddenly appeared between her eyes, as if she wanted to see a different world.

"Could it really be that the scoop of water that drank the clear water had a miraculous effect and arrived in this strange place?" Qin Yue touched her head, vaguely worried.

The two siblings looked at Qin Yue, who was babbling nonsense, and they were curious.

"Who are you, and where is this?" Qin Yue stared at the two people in front of her, curiosity mixed with unease.

"This, this is Shuzhong, your brain won't be broken!"

"Wait, you still ask who we are, who are you? Come here early in the morning to play diving, it's not Lao Tzu who saved you, your life was already taken. ”

"Diving? Save me. Qin Yue's eyes were misty, looking at a young man of the same age as herself.

"Brother, brother, tell my brother quickly, you flew down from the sky, right? Tell him quickly, I was not mistaken. The second girl was stubborn and interjected to ask Qin Yue to confirm it for herself.

Flying down from the sky, Shuzhong, where is this? Could it be that it was really caused by drinking the scoop of water of the old monk, and that scoop of water really has a unique effect?

Could it be that I have crossed over, Qin Yue is unbelievable.

"It's over, I don't think I need to ask, this eighty percent really broke my brain." The boy shook his head and sighed, a look of sympathy.

"Brother, my name is Erya, this is my brother, Qianran, do you remember your name?" Erya didn't think so, still looking at Qin Yue with anticipation, and asked.

"Oh, my name is Qin Yue, although I don't know the situation yet, but I still have to thank you for saving me, thank you." Qin Yue returned to her senses, as the saying goes, when you enter the door to ask people, when you enter the temple to worship the Buddha, it is always good to show your respect first.

"It's a trivial matter, it's like this." Qianran waved his hand, full of indifference, quite a bit of momentum not to win the award after seeing righteousness and bravery.

A low wooden house, dotted furniture, a vegetable patch, green.

It was already very good that the two brothers and sisters with four walls of the family could take Qin Yue in.

"You just live here first, now there is chaos outside, and you can't figure out the situation, it's easy to have an accident, although we are not rich, but we are safe." Qianran instructed while tidying up the bed.

"This is my brother's clothes, they should fit, you are soaking wet, change quickly." Erya held the clothes in a pair of small hands and handed them to Qin Yue.

Except for Granny Feng, it was the first time that someone was so good to Qin Yue.

Life here is very peaceful, unhurried, men and women weave, happiness can be seen everywhere, the wheat in the rice fields is almost ripe, yellow and cancan, there will be a harvest season this year.

For a few days, Qin Yue slowly became familiar with this land, and gradually realized that he might not be able to go back, and he had to learn to live here.

And the land where Qin Yue lives now is called Shuzhong, which can also be called Shudi, or Shuchuan, if Shuzhong is a city, Shudi is a province, Shuchuan is a country, and the territory outside Shuchuan is called the Southern Wilderness and Linhai by the world.

Most people choose to live in Shudi, because the southern wilderness and the sea outside the Shu River are either sand dunes or jungles, rare and exotic beasts, there are many monsters, and the dangerous journey can be imagined, few people set foot in, for the Shu River, outside the Shu land is mostly a place where cult murderers are entrenched.

Only Shu is the safest in Shu, because in the mountains in Shuzhong, there are four major popes in this mountain to establish a faction, in fact, there are five reasons, only rumored that many years ago, the orthodox and the cult had launched a head-to-head confrontation, the battle was very tragic, so that the orthodox religion broke a vein, the cult has never stepped into Shu again, everyone knows that the orthodox church won, but how it won, no one knows, even why this battle was launched, no one knows, because most of the people who know died in this battle.

Among the four major sects in Shuzhong, only the Immortal Peak is the most outstanding, and the other three sects: Luoshui Pavilion, Fanyin Valley, and Burning Demon Hall are all roughly parallel, so the disciples of the Immortal Peak also take on the important task of leading the other three sects to jointly protect the safety of the people in Shu.

I heard that the fairy peak has a long history, the creation of the school has been more than 500 years, the ancestor of the founding of the mountain Xuanzhen, was a warlock, won the true transmission of the divination of the Fuxi clan, at a glance can see that this mountain gathers the river of the world, accepts the spirit of all things, is a blessed land, and finds a god plaque in the place of the dragon vein in the mountain, the name of the god plaque is called the fairy list.

Since then, this mountain has been named the Immortal Peak, and later opened the mountain here, the name of the sect is also according to the name of the mountain, and this immortal list is also rumored to be a god, the legend is that if the name is written on the immortal list, you can feather ascend the immortal, and Xuan Zhen is the first person to write the name on, it is rumored that Xuan Zhen inscribed that day, with a brilliant body, out of ten thousand golden lights, driving the green dragon to soar.

Five hundred years of ups and downs have passed, and now there are thirty-one names on the immortal list, of course, these thirty-one names are not all the disciples of the Immortal Peak, the Immortal Peak only accounts for thirteen, Luoshui Pavilion accounts for six, the Demon Burning Hall accounts for five, and the Fanyin Valley accounts for seven.

Each of these names has had a legend, but with the passage of these hundreds of years, people have forgotten so much that they can't remember a few people.

There are piles of straw in front of the house, autumn harvest farming is everywhere, Qin Yue is lying on the straw pile, looking up at the sky from this angle, it can't be more beautiful, if you can take a nap in this beautiful place, it must be a sweet dream.

There was a burst of crying, and after looking at it, it was Erya.

"Erya, why are you crying, what's the matter?" Qin Yue jumped down, approached, and comforted.

I felt that there was still a person cowering not far behind him, and the second girl pointed angrily and said, "Woo, it's him, who broke my toy." ”

Qianran walked over in embarrassment, spread his hands, and said, "I didn't mean to." ”

Looking at the doll broken in half in Qianran's hand, Erya cried even more sadly, with red eyes and a convulsive sound.

"You, you don't coax, you have to admit your mistake or something." Qin Yue looked at the crying and sad Erya, there was really no way to take Qianran.

"Coax, I can't coax, unless I compensate her, but where can I get it?" Qian Ran not only did not admit his mistake but was right, and then shrugged his shoulders as if nothing had happened.

Qin Yue is also a big head, she really owes you in her previous life, so she can only coax Erya first.

Who knew that Erya didn't buy it at all, and the more she cried, the louder she became, seeing that her sister had been crying for a long time, Qianran's heart gradually became uncomfortable, but within a moment, a thought suddenly popped up in her mind.

"Wait." Qianran remembered something.

"What's wrong?" Qin Yue asked.

"There it is." Qianran looked at Qin Yue and said, turned to Erya and said, "Erya, brother is also ・・・・・・." ”

"Hmph, ignore you." The second girl was stubborn and continued to cry.

"Really ignorant? My brother is going to take you to eat something delicious. Qianran said temptingly.

"Delicious." As soon as these three words came out, the little girl's tears came out, and the little head thought about it and said, "You didn't lie to me?" ”

"Remember that broken temple!"

As soon as Qianran's voice fell, Er Ya couldn't help but think about it, remembering the sacrifice in the broken temple last time, there was a big chicken leg, and he was hungry when he thought about it.

It seems that eating has always been the core idea, in order not to disappoint Erya, Qianran begged all the way in the hope that someone would sacrifice these days, don't fall short, otherwise I really don't know how to coax Erya.

From the outside, the small temple is dilapidated, and I don't know how many ups and downs it has experienced.

The three of them stepped over the door, fortunately there were people sacrificing and enshrined the statue of the dragon king, I am afraid that they were begging for good weather and natural disasters**.

Qianran, Erya has already regarded this place as her home, and she must have been here many times, biting the chicken leg with her small mouth, and her mouth full of oil.

was eating happily, but there was a voice not far from the door.

"Someone." Qin Yue looked at Qianran.

"It's not good, if the villagers find out that we are eating sacrifices here, we will be beaten, so hide." Qianran looked flustered, and pulled Qin Yue and Erya to drill behind the statue.

The sound went from far to near, like entering a ruined temple.

Qin Yue hid behind the statue and looked carefully: I saw a fat monk, holding a hundred catties of Zen staff, a pair of fierce eyes, a face full of meat, a thick and burly body, legs as strong as a pillar, straddling a broken bench, and the other person was thin in comparison, standing upright, like a thousand gold, the old tree was stable at the root, carefully looking at the face, the face was long and the lips were thick, and the eyes were above the eagle's nose, and he was heroic.

The two are friends and not enemies, and they talk closely.

"According to what we agreed before, shouldn't you kill that bald donkey!" The thin man in green clothes asked.

"It's not the time yet." The monk shook his head back.

"Now is not the time, when is the head?" The thin man's eyes widened, and his face turned pale.

"Do you know that you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, you have to know that if you make a mistake, you will lose all the plates." The monk said thoughtfully.

"You don't stare and see, the old bald donkey will be inscribed on the immortal list in the next few days, and when the time is ripe, the bald donkey will already become an immortal."

As soon as these words came out, Qin Yue's body trembled, and she was nominated for the immortal list, and she couldn't help but be inexplicably surprised, it seems that the immortal list is true, I remember that my mother seemed to have told me these things when I was a child, could it be that this is the colorful world, my mother has been away for more than ten years, will it be here, will we meet here, I thought for a while, my heart was happy, and I accidentally stepped on something proudly, only to hear a crisp sound.

"Who?" The monk noticed it and roared.
