Chapter 315: Myths and Legends
After several days of rainfall, the Gaoshan people rarely went out. For several days in a row, Dayu brought food to Shen Mei, and the relationship between the two became a lot closer. Shen Mei asked him about the clansmen. Dayu was also happy to answer for him.
However, about what happened that night, Shen Mei did not ask Dayu abruptly, and the man in the iron mask seemed to have disappeared in the past few days and did not appear.
Shen Mei held her chin with one hand and looked into the distance with a dull expression, Dayu beside her didn't know what was wrong with Shen Mei, so he asked her, "What's wrong with you, you've been so listless these days?"
The young man's immature voice was mixed with the sound of the rain, and the crystal water curtain outside the cave entrance splashed on the two of them from time to time, reflecting the greenery with haze, time seemed to stand still, and Dayu followed Shen Mei's eyebrows and eyes gradually calmed down. Time is silent and does not want to disturb them.
Dayu began to habitually come to Shen Mei, at first because of Brother Liang's instructions, but now he likes to get along with Shen Mei when he is together, Shen Mei is very interesting, and it is a special existence for Dayu.
Unconsciously turned her eyes to Shen Mei, quietly looking at her white side face, fine eyelashes, like a feather, soft fluttering from time to time, small nose, and pink thin lips, such a woman is like a clear spring, pure and with unexpected agitation, but Dayu can still feel the difference in Shen Mei's bones, sometimes like clouds and mist in high places, people can not easily contact, sometimes like a hazy crescent moon, beautiful and holy people yearn for.
Shen Mei said to the people around her with a calm expression, "Dayu, you Gaoshan people have always lived here and have never gone out, haven't you seen everything outside?" ”
Da Yu was stunned, and retracted his involuntary emotions just now, "Well, the people of the clan have never gone out, and we have lived here for generations, because everything here is a gift from the mountain god for us, and we have to guard these two grottoes for the mountain spirit because we have inherited the blessing of the mountain spirit." ”
Shen Mei didn't expect that the people here would get along harmoniously and happily with nature, and the awe of nature carried the original simplicity and piety. It turns out that a long time ago, people's worship of the gods was a sincere reverence for nature.
"So, this is a spiritual mountain?" Shen Mei pretended to be innocent and looked curious.
"Yes, when I was very young, I heard my grandfather tell a story that has been passed down from our clan, do you want to hear it?" Da Yu looked at Shen Mei's expression profoundly, wanting to arouse Shen Mei's curiosity.
Following Da Yu's words, Shen Mei really wanted to know more things about the Gao Shan Clan, since there was no way to open her mouth to ask about what happened that night, she didn't know if she would know something related to it from Da Yu's mouth.
Shen Mei looked at Dayu suspiciously, "There is really a mysterious story." ”
"Well, tell me about it."
satisfied the young man's careful thinking, Da Yu pretended to be profound and began to tell Shen Mei the stories he heard when he was a child. "From the generation of my great-grandfather's great-grandfather, it is said that some people in our Gaoshan clan have seen the divine dragon, and then this is the place where the divine dragon must pass when it flies into the sky, but a long time ago, when a seven-clawed golden dragon flew to the gods, it was unexpectedly hit by the heavenly catastrophe, and the two keels on the body were cut off by the heavenly thunder and turned into these two mountains." As she spoke, she was attracted by Shen Mei's expression.
Shen Mei didn't expect that this story was not only bizarre but also too magical, her eyes widened, but she felt that it was unexpected, and there was even something to do with Shenlong here.
"This place has become a treasure land because of the perennial absorption of divine power, and it is natural to give birth to such a place, these grottoes are not man-made, they are all bone cracks on the keel, and the lake below is the essence of the keel." The more Da Yu spoke, the more energetic he became, he never doubted what his grandfather said since he was a child, they were able to survive and reproduce because of these two spiritual mountains, and at the same time, they were also the guardians of the spiritual mountains for generations.
"Don't believe it, these are all things that my wife and grandfather told the family, passed down from generation to generation, and everyone in the clan knows it." Dayu saw that Shen Mei didn't react at all, and was inexplicably a little anxious.
What I didn't expect was that before Shen Mei turned around, Dayu had already walked straight to the edge of the lookout, leaned over and looked down, Shen Mei followed behind Dayu, and the rain gradually decreased, but the water vapor was still in the air, and she couldn't see it clearly when she looked down, but seeing Dayu like this, Dayu's originally relaxed expression couldn't help frowning at the moment, making Shen Mei faintly aware that something seemed to have happened.
Dayu turned around, "I heard the patriarch's horn just now. Something happens, I'm going to go down and see, you don't want to run around, you know. "It's like an adult telling a child.
Shen Mei felt that what was happening at this time was absolutely unusual, and she keenly smelled something strange.
Earnest little eyes looked at Dayu, "Take me to see." "Whispered a plea for Dayu.
But Dayu didn't have the right to let her go, when Brother A Liang left, he just asked him to send food to Shen Mei on time, and he didn't allow himself to take her down the mountain, if something went wrong, Brother A Liang would be angry, he didn't want Brother A Liang to be disappointed in him.
He shook his head at Shen Mei firmly and refused, did not give Shen Mei a chance to speak again, and ran towards the stone steps quickly.
Shen Mei looked at the young man's dexterous body, jumped up the stone steps, jumped lightly, and disappeared into the clouds and mist after a while.
"Why is this man like this?" I sighed in disappointment.
When Dayu rushed to the mountain, he found that the lake had surrounded several circles of people, several elders and patriarchs standing in the innermost place, Dayu squeezed in from the crowd, and suddenly was stunned and motionless when he saw the things in the lake.
The voices of the people around him drowned out Dayu's thoughts, looked at the things in the lake, and leaned over to the people next to him, "Daddy, what is in the lake?" “
Da Yu asked his father, now the patriarch of the Gaoshan clan, Da Yu's father looked at Da Yu, "Don't ask nonsense about things that shouldn't be asked." The patriarch's eyes widened, and there seemed to be anger in his eyes, and he didn't want his children to ask too much about such things.
But the things in the lake gradually floated up, and they couldn't just let it go, and the elders looked at each other, waiting for someone to make a decision.
"It's a blessing or a curse, it's a curse that can't be avoided." A white-bearded old man stroked his gray beard and said slowly.
So, the patriarch ordered, "Come on, pull the white jade coffin ashore." “
