Chapter 31 The Poor Mulberry of the West Sea Descends to the Stars
A cry came from afar, breaking the wind and lighting up the heavens and the earth. A bird flutters its wings, its body is smooth, its posture is elegant, its long tail wings are colorful, gorgeous and graceful, and the colorful clouds around it turn into ribbons, accompanied by a clear chirping and flying.
Yueming felt very strange and asked, "What kind of bird is this?" ”
Yun Wangwu looked at the sky, and before he could answer, in the blink of an eye, the bird had already arrived in front of the two of them, folded its huge multicolored wings, and turned into a person.
The colorful clothes are fluttering, the skin is smooth and fair, and there is a young male and female face, "Hey, how can you be human?" ”
Yueming said in surprise.
"Bold! Who are you to dare to trespass on Kunlun Mountain! Do you know that the Western Emperor Shaohao came to visit the Queen Mother of the West and rested here? ”
The man shouted, sounding like a man.
"Western Emperor Shaohao?"
Yueming was confused for a while, who is the Western Emperor Shaohao?
The scroll slowly opened, and the white fingertips lightly touched the scroll.
It was in the vast West Sea, and the blue water was surging, as if it could be swept away.
However, on the shore of the West Sea, there is a large mulberry tree that stands still, called "Poor Mulberry"
。
This is where the story begins.
The peach blossoms outside the window dissipated, and the idle clouds curled, shooting out golden light through the clouds and smoke, sprinkled on the Divine Pavilion, as if plated with a layer of gold.
The Xuan Palace at the top of the Tianshan Mountains is surrounded by white ice and snow, and the four seasons remain unchanged.
In the Xuan Palace, there was the sound of weaving, and a little girl was sitting in front of the loom and weaving non-stop.
The little girl was born with pink carvings, and although she looked young, her hands were dexterous and she skillfully weaved cloth.
The cloth is made of the collection of the heavenly caixia as raw materials, decorated with ice and snow on the mountain, and decorated with morning dew and starlight, which is exquisite and gorgeous, and is used to make clothes for the superior immortal emperors and even gods.
The little girl looked out the window and saw that it was the same white.
"Humph!"
The little girl threw the cloth in her hand, waved her sleeves, and the Caixia that had not yet been used was brushed aside, "Every day is weaving and weaving, every day is facing this white piece, it's really boring!" ”
At this moment, a verdant bird flew over, stopped at the window, and stared at the little girl with two dark eyes.
"Who's lazy and doesn't work?"
Bluebird said.
The little girl's eyes widened and she said, "Sister Weaver Girl, why are you here?" ”
The bluebird jumped off the windowsill and landed in the form of a young woman in a verdant dress.
"I've said it several times, and now I'm no longer in the position of Weaver Girl. Don't call me Sister Weaver Girl. I'm ** now. ”
The young beauty said.
"Yes, Master Xuansu."
The little girl bowed her head.
"My good boy, I heard what you said just now. Why, do you still want to do the opposite? You must know that Master and I can't do it, and now I can only be guarded by the Queen Mother of the West by the side of the good student, let alone think about you. ”
Xuan Su said, tapping the little girl's little head with his finger.
"Master, how dare you ...... apprentice?"
The little girl muttered.
"Come, I'll see how our little Huang'e's cloth is being woven."
Xuan Su said and picked up the woven cloth to look at, then nodded and said, "It's not bad, the emperor is hungry, so I can rest assured that I will hand over the task of weaving this cloth to you." ”
"Thank you, Master, for the compliment!"
The little girl named Huang'e said happily.
"Master should go, don't be greedy, you have to weave well, don't make mistakes."
Xuan Su explained.
"Master! Are you still coming back to see Huang'e? ”
Huang'e blushed and asked in a low voice.
"No, it won't,"
Xuan Su said, "This is the last time I will come to see you, and after that, I will concentrate on cultivating by the side of the Queen Mother of the West and repay her kindness to me." ”
Huang'e's eyes were filled with tears, and she said, "Then Huang'e misses her master, how can she be good?" ”
Xuan Su put his hand on Huang'e's little head, his eyes were full of pity: "We will always encounter separation, we have met inevitably, and it is better to see each other in the future, or it is better not to see each other." ”
Huang'e didn't quite understand what Xuan Su meant, but felt that there was no deep meaning in what he said.
Xuan Su spun in a circle, turned into a blue bird, then flapped his wings and flew away, and finally disappeared into the white of the vast Tianshan Mountain.
"It's so boring!"
Huang'e said to herself, "The cloth to be woven today has been finished, or I will secretly go down the mountain to the West Sea to play, and come back before dark." ”
At the age of a little girl, Huang'e naturally couldn't change her playfulness, just like her master, she didn't think about what would happen in the future at first.
Huang'e flew down the mountain, made a small boat out of driftwood, and then took the boat to play in the West Sea.
Her boat floated and stopped on the edge of a small island in the sea where the poor mulberry tree was.
The size of the small island is only a small circle larger than the poor mulberry tree, and you can stand on it and walk around the big tree.
Huang'e jumped out of the boat and circled around the tree.
The poor mulberry tree is extremely tall and luxuriant, hundreds of miles above the sea, and its leaves are red, and its trunk is purple.
Huang'e was tired of walking, so she sat down against the big tree to watch the sky.
She noticed that there was a star in the western sky that was particularly bright, and she could see it clearly even in the daytime, so she said, "This star is so beautiful, if only I could live there." ”
Suddenly, something fell from one of the stars, heading straight in the direction of the poor mulberry tree.
Suddenly radiant, Huang'e narrowed her eyes for a while.
When the light dissipated, she saw a little boy about her age standing in front of her, with a very vulgar appearance.
"Who are you?"
Huang'e asked.
"I am Chang Gung, who came down from the apocalyptic star in the sky."
The little boy said and pointed to the sky.
"You came up from the brightest star?"
Huang'e's eyes widened.
"yes, who are you?"
Chang Gung asked.
"My name is Huang'e, and I came from the Tianshan Mountains."
Huang'e said.
"I live in the White House."
Chang Gung said.
"I live in the Xuan Palace."
Huang'e also said, "Hey, what are you doing in the White House?" ”
"I hold the position of Tai Bai Xing, and the other immortals all respect me as Tai Bai Xing Jun, in fact, I am bored all day."
Chang Geng sighed and said.
Huang'e seemed to have found a bosom friend, and hurriedly said: "I am weaving cloth in the sky after the Weaver Girl, and I am so bored in front of the white Tianshan all day long!" ”
The two children laughed.
Since then, the two have often met under the poor mulberry tree, and then went to play together.
In the evening, they each went back to finish their work.
Under the poor mulberry tree, Chang Gung and Huang'e held hands.
"The two of us make a covenant here, and we will never leave each other in the future."
Chang Gung said: "In the future, I will marry you as my wife." ”
Huang'e asked, "Why?" ”
"Because then we can always play together."
Chang Gung replied.
"Okay then."
Huang'e thought about it and agreed.
Until one day, the poor mulberry tree glowed purple-red and enveloped the whole tree, and the tree continued to flow as if it had turned into liquid, and finally produced purple-red fruit between the red leaves and purple branches.
"Look, what's going on? What happened to the poor mulberry tree? ”
Huang'e asked.
"Don't be afraid,"
Chang Geng's face was smiling, "This is the fruit of a poor mulberry tree." It bears a fruit in a hundred years, gathers the energy of the seawater, and can grow quickly after eating. ”
"I see."
Huang'e suddenly realized.
"I'll take it off."
Chang Gung said that he was going up the tree.
Huang'e hurriedly shouted under the tree: "Be careful! ”
Chang Gung flew up and found the poor mulberry fruit among the branches and leaves, but this fruit was two twin fruits connected together.
Chang Geng happily took it off and showed it to Huang'e.
