Chapter 535: Spirit Creatures in the Mountains

Liu's mother in order to pray for her son and ask the whole family to go to the mountain temple outside Beiping City to show sincerity, mother-in-law is rare to have such a mind as a daughter-in-law Cai Yan naturally supports, the second day of the general's mansion travel team can be described as vast, there are hundreds of meters before and after, there are more than 20 carriages alone, plus the following people and the guards of Liu Yi's personal guard battalion, this line is afraid of thousands of people, it can be said that the battle is full, attracting many people to stop and watch.

Today Liu Yi did not ride a horse, but sat in the same car with Cai Yan, now he is not suitable to show his head in front of everyone, at this time the strong young man in the front of the horse is Liu Yi's eldest son Liu Huan, now thirteen years old, after experiencing the Jizhou War, his eyes are more calm and capable, if you look at it from the back, Liu Yi has been eight or nine points similar.

A group of people took the Suzaku Street out of the Danfeng Gate, their destination is the Yuquan Mountain ten miles outside the city, here is named after the clear mountain spring, every day the palace and the minister's mansion will have someone to go to fetch water and return, the General's Mansion is also one of them, and the hour is only after the Son of Heaven! The mountain temple was built on the other mountainside of Yuquan Mountain, at this time, although Buddhism has been introduced to the Han Dynasty but has not yet flourished in later generations, believers are far inferior, the people believe in more or those gods inherited from China, it is because this mountain temple is extremely effective will come like a tide.

The convoy of the General's Mansion occupies half of the entire official road, many people see that it is General Liu's chauffeur and consciously let it aside, Liu Yi never likes to disturb the people, so the accompanying family members did not have any reprimands, this is a kind of heartfelt respect in the hearts of ordinary people, since General Liu came their days have been better day by day, I heard that the general was sick and could not come out, and there are many ordinary people in Youzhou who spontaneously prayed for him. The only person who can make the people under his command do this is Hanzhong Zhang Lu. However, his situation is different from Liu Yi's, and he uses more of a religious belief.

After about half an hour, the convoy has come to the foot of Yuquan Mountain, where the people of the General's Mansion want to get off the car and climb the stone steps on foot, even the old lady is no exception, in her opinion, this is also a kind of sincerity, Liu's mother is so, Cai Yan wants to step forward to help each other, and Liu Huan is also on the other side to support the main mother, the soldiers of the guard battalion should be the first to open the road, and the long line will go to the middle of the mountain, these stone steps are funded by the believers in Beiping City, of which Liu Mu alone is out of half, Of course, for the wealthy Liu family, these are just small expenses, if they can make their mother-in-law happy, Cai Yan will never be stingy with money.

After all, Liu's mother is an old person, and she can be called middle-aged in her fifties in later generations, but at the end of the Han Dynasty, when the average life expectancy was only thirty years old, she was already an old man, and many women of Liu's mother's size were already four generations in the same house! Although there is a daughter-in-law and the eldest grandson to help each other, but the old lady has to stop and rest for a while from time to time, they are in the forefront, and the rest of the people in the Liu Mansion naturally dare not overpass, so although this mountain temple is not high, it also took a lot of time.

I heard that Liu's mother was going to lead the whole family to visit the gods today, and the temple Zhu got up early in the morning to arrange, and at this time, the surrounding of the mountain temple has been surrounded by the soldiers of the guard battalion, Hong Biao also personally led the army to arrive here in the middle of the night, and searched in detail within a radius of five miles, this place is quite deserted, and the safety of the general can not be ignored! This temple is the elder of a village at the foot of the mountain, it is said that there is a god who dreamed that he went up the mountain to build this temple, now the age of seventy is in good spirits, what is more surprising is that this person built the mountain temple after a white hair turned black, it can be said that he himself is the living sign of this temple, and the prosperity here has a great relationship with him.

"The old man has seen the old lady, the lady, the eldest son, I heard that the old lady is going to come with her family today, and the inside and outside of this temple are all arranged, and the old man and everyone have been waiting here for a long time." Seeing Liu Mu and others stepping onto the platform in front of the temple, Miao Zhu immediately brought everyone behind him to see it.

"Why should the old fairy be like this, the old body came here to pray for the blessing of his family, so it is just to be sincere in front of the gods, if you miss someone else's business, it is not the old body." Seeing that everyone was giving a salute, Mother Liu hurriedly asked Liu Huan to step forward to support the temple, and then spoke again.

"Of course, the old man knows the old lady's intentions in his heart, but this time I heard that the general is also coming, this place is quite deserted, and we must be cautious and vigilant, the old man has been entrusted by the gods and men to build this temple for the blessing of the people, if the general has a little bit here, the old man will not become the finger of Wanfu! But I don't know where the general is? Miao Zhu got up and replied, Hong Biao led people here in the middle of the night last night, not only around the temple, but also inside to explore in detail, if someone else, Miao Zhu may also be blocked, but Liu Yi's reputation in Youzhou is unparalleled for a while, he is also respectful on weekdays, and he is even more happy to hear that the general is also coming, so not only did not hinder Hong Biao's behavior but also showed great cooperation, at this time he also replied when he heard Liu's mother's words.

"Thank you for the bother, Yi'er, this is the temple of this mountain temple, you need to be polite!" Originally, Liu's mother had a lot of respect for this temple in her heart, and now she heard him mention her son, so she naturally didn't say more, and immediately called Liu Yi over to meet him, and Lang Sheng was firmly protected by Liu Liu, Liu Qiguanhai and others in the middle, at this time, when he heard his mother's call, he stepped forward quickly, and he heard the rumors and wanted to see the old man.

"Old decay Wang Lun, I've seen the general!" This temple Zhu lived near Beiping that day, and suffered from the tyranny of Gongsun Zhan, so the gratitude to Liu Yi in his heart was the same as that of the people around him.

"The old man can't be like this, please get up quickly." Liu Yi was also quite shocked when he saw this old man, although this person's face was old, but his eyes were bright, the skin between his hands and neck was very smooth, and with a head of black hair, it was indeed very dusty, no wonder his mother called him an old fairy, is there really a rejuvenation?

Originally, Liu Yi was not convinced of this ghost and god thing, with the old man in his seventies at the end of the Han Dynasty, this turbulent time was enough to call him a long life, the state government has special preferential treatment for people like them, Liu Yi will not let this old man give him a big gift, but when he stretched out his hand to hold the old man's arms, the shock in his heart was even worse, he could clearly feel the strong muscles and strength on his arms, and he would not lose compared with ordinary strong men. Such a phenomenon appears in a seventy-year-old man, which is extremely unreasonable! And with his cultivation, he can see at a glance that this old man is not proficient in martial arts, and then think of the rumor that he dreamed of a god, and he can't help but feel that although this ghost and god theory is ethereal, it may not have its own reason.

"If it weren't for the general who led the troops to come, the old family would have been cut off long ago, how could there be today? These believers were also farmers around Beiping, and they would take turns to come here to help the old man take care of the temple on weekdays. The old lady came to pray for the general's blessings, and she should not miss the time, and she hoped to be able to talk to the general again after the ceremony. When Wang Lun spoke, all the believers behind him nodded again and again, and there was a look of respect and admiration in their eyes when they looked at Liu Yi, at this time, everything in the temple was ready, and Wang Lun did not delay any longer, and immediately began to arrange.

Here Liu Hu led his family to begin to carry up the sacrificial things prepared yesterday, pigs, cattle and sheep are all available and are all high-quality things, those believers took it in their own hands and carried it into the temple to arrange, Liu Yi was accompanying his mother at this time, but suddenly there was an inexplicable feeling in his heart, this feeling seemed to be something he had never had.

There is no warning sign in his heart that will appear before the danger comes, but there is a familiar voice in a certain place in this Yuquan Mountain that keeps calling him, Liu Yi knows that in fact, this is not a sound at all, but a certain intuition in the depths of his mind, there must be something very close to him in the mountains and forests, could it be that the wolves of Yushan are here? Although the two places are very far apart, Liu Yi still clearly remembers how Saihu came from Yushan to Shangdang to find him.

But that feeling is not very similar, if it is really the wolves in Yushan at this time, even if they are afraid of many people and do not show up, there should always be a wolf howl, that kind of intimacy is still a little strange, if it is not for the large number of families here, Liu Yi will definitely look up to the sky and roar, he believes that the existence in the mountain will definitely give him a response, such an intuition has never been missed.

"Old man, what's unusual on this mountain lately?" Liu Yi couldn't help but ask Wang Lun at this time, this person is in the mountain temple every day, if there is any movement, he must not be able to hide it.

"Anomalous? Oh, a few months ago, there were a few hunters and old people who had seen a strange beast in this mountain, this thing was snow-white, and its hair was extremely long, but it was difficult to see it at all, but they didn't know what kind of beast it was, and they wanted to catch it several times, but the strange beast was extremely flexible, and seemed to be able to know their thoughts, often the bait was not a trap but it had no effect! The old man was afraid that they would hurt the spiritual creatures in the mountains, so he put some meat behind the temple every night, and he always disappeared in the early morning, but this thing did not hurt people, and the old man did not want to snoop. Wang Lun was slightly stunned when he heard this, and only after thinking for a while did he speak. Occasionally, he had a glimpse of it, but all he saw was a white shadow, and it was even more difficult to see in the night.
