Chapter 304: The story is poignant

Liang Diqing: "Let's all drink this fairy water." ”

Huineng put Liang Diqing down, took a breath, pointed to the spring water under the impact of Bai Lian, and asked, "You just said that this mountain stream is called fairy water?" ”

"Yes," Liang Diqing introduced, "We mountain people have a customary habit, whenever we enter and exit the mountain, we like to drink a few sips of fairy water here." ”

Huineng pondered: "Immortal water? Listening to this name and looking at this mountain stream, does this stream have a miraculous effect? ”

Liang Diqing said seriously: "I don't know if it's magical or not, but it's true that drinking it makes people feel more spiritual."

Liang Diqing pointed to the peak when he spoke, and said, "You see that this fairy water has a great origin. ”

"Oh?" Huineng's mother and son looked at Liang Diqing.

Liang Diqing saw that Huineng's mother and son were looking at him with curious eyes, and he didn't believe it, so he told Huineng's mother and son about the origin of Tianlu Mountain fairy water seriously:

Legend has it that in ancient times, there was a big mountain called Tianlu Mountain. There is a natural stone cave halfway up the mountain. The cave is divided into two parts: front and back. The spring water flows out from the mouth of the cave all year round, and is known as the "source of heavenly dew immortals".

The Heavenly Dew Immortal Source contains a beautiful legend. Legend has it that a long time ago, due to the lack of water, the land was barren, and the plague spread, and the life of the people was very bleak.

One day, the Jade Emperor ordered the heavenly soldiers to patrol, and when they arrived at the gate of heaven, they heard the complaints of the people here. So, he told the Jade Emperor.

When the Jade Emperor found out, he sent the minister in charge of water and the minister in charge of medicine to visit the people.

After the two ministers figured out the reason, they returned to the heavenly court to hand over the order to the Jade Emperor.

The Jade Emperor immediately issued a decree that the heavenly generals would build a high mountain that stretched for miles here and built a beautiful fairy cave.

Then, the Bodhisattva of the World who rescued the suffering brought the dragon ball, personally led the fairy, and went down to the fairy cave, where she embedded the dragon ball in the depths of the cave. Since then, the spring water in the cave has been continuous, flowing into a stream, flowing into a small stream, flowing to the dry fields in this area.

Since then, there is no shortage of water here, and it is strange to say that after drinking this spring water, the people here have lived a long and healthy life, and the plague has also disappeared, and the five grains have been abundant year after year.

Bathe in the springs of all the people, so that the people may be well-being.

This magical legend is deeply imprinted in the hearts of future generations, so it is known as the "source of heavenly dew immortals".

Li: "When I was in Longshan, I often heard people say that people on this side of Tianlu Mountain are rarely sick and live long. ”

"The mountains and rivers are good, and the people are naturally good." When Liang Diqing spoke, he pointed to the big stone in the stone cave by the spring and said, "You see that this big stone weighs at least 100,000 catties, and its shape doesn't look like a turtle?" ”

Li Shi looked at the big stone and said, "After you reminded me like this, this big stone really looks like a big turtle lying by the spring drinking water. Turtles are long-lived creatures! ”

Huineng smiled and said: "Ah, the name of this spring water must be a great talent who has read poetry and books." ”

Liang Diqing: "We can't verify whether the name of this Tianlu Xianyuan was given by Da Xiu, but it must have been given by a person of great wisdom." ”

"You are right," Huineng turned around and said to the Li family, "Mother, this immortal source can live a long life if you drink it, you drink it first." ”

Liang Diqing praised: "Ah Neng, you are really a filial son, and good things always let your mother come first." ”

Li Shi walked crutches, very tired, sweating a lot, very thirsty at this time, came to the mouth of the stone cave, put down the crutches, bent down with both hands to drink the spring water, a cool with sweetness straight through the heart. After Li Shi drank it, he suddenly felt refreshed, stretched his tongue out of his mouth, licked it back and forth, and shouted: "This immortal source is cold and sweet!" Yes, you can also take a few more sips. ”

Huineng carried Liang Diqing up the mountain on his back, sweating more, and being thirsty like fire, so he and Liang Diqing successively drank water at the mouth of the stone cave.

The hunting dog Ah Wang usually follows Liang Diqing up and down the mountain and will come to this immortal source to drink. At this time, he seemed to understand what people were saying, and after everyone had drunk water, he threw himself at the mouth of the stone cave and drank the water violently.

After drinking the immortal source, they sat down under the boulder by the spring to rest.

The mountain breeze was blowing in the face, and everyone felt that the fatigue had been reduced a lot.

Not far from the entrance of the cave, a wooden plank bridge flies over the lake.

Huineng stood up and looked at it: the bridge was about five zhang long, the middle piers were natural boulders, and the bridge deck was composed of three long thick wooden planks.

Liang Diqing pointed to the other side of the lake and said, "After crossing this Huluo Bridge, there is a mountain path that leads to our Wenyang Tianzhai. ”

"Golo Bridge?" Huineng's heart was touched, "The name of this bridge is a bit strange, why is it called Huluo Bridge?" ”

Liang Diqing explained: "As the name suggests, because this bridge is to protect the people who pass through Luodong, and also to protect the safety and security of the people around Luodong Village. ”

Huineng was puzzled: "You speak in detail. ”

Liang Diqingyang pointed to the bridge: "Don't look at the bridge deck is not wide, it is seven or eight feet high from the water, and there are big stones bulging on it, but there is no danger when you walk across this bridge." ”

Huineng didn't believe it: "No. The bridge deck is so narrow, what if people accidentally fall off the bridge deck while walking? ”

Liang Diqing's tone was full of seriousness: "Over the years, someone has accidentally fallen down across the bridge with a big buffalo, but they were all unscathed. ”

Huineng and Li exclaimed, "There is such a miraculous thing. ”

"We don't know why, but it's true! That's why we call this bridge the Golo Bridge. There are many miles of magical east on Tianlu Mountain. ”

Liang Diqing looked up at the mountain, "Okay, the sun is gradually rising, let's hurry." ”

"Okay." Huineng carried Liang Diqing on his back again, and Li was on crutches. Everyone easily crossed the Goroku Bridge and walked up the winding mountain road.

The ancient trees in the mountains are towering, and the vines hang down from the tall trees, covering the sky and the sun. White plum blossoms dot the green mountains in the distance, and wildflowers are in full bloom. The waterfall is noisy, and there are countless stones of different sizes in the stream beside the path, and there are many smooth stone mortars that are well abrased and distributed in groups on the rocks, and the gurgling stream flows happily from the side. Deep in the mountains and dense forests, there were bursts of bird calls of "brother, brother".

"Why is this bird chirping alone?" Li asked curiously.

When Liang Diqing inquired, he told Li's mother and son about the story of this bird in the local area:

Legend has it that a long time ago, in a remote mountain village, there lived a pair of poor brothers and sisters, the eldest brother is called Yacha, the younger sister is called Cha Mei, the elder brother has a good character, kind-hearted, and is a good worker, the younger sister, not only born very handsome, but also ingenious.

Due to the early death of their parents, the two siblings live on a tea plantation left by their parents. My brother is very good at growing tea, and my sister has a good way of making tea, no matter who drinks the tea made by their brother and sister, they will applaud.

There is a bully in the local area who has seized a lot of land and rented it to other people to cultivate. This bully does all kinds of evil, and I don't know how much blood and sweat of the poor have been sucked up.

Once, my sister paid tea rent to Diba, and when Diba saw the tea girl, she was fascinated by her appearance, and an evil idea immediately sprouted in her heart, wanting to take the tea girl as her own.

The land tyrant immediately walked up to the tea girl with a smile on his face, coaxing and deceiving, and then hugged the tea girl with his hands and dances.

Who knew that the tea girl was upright, didn't buy his account, and scolded this land bully for being an old fox with a human face and a beast heart, and scolded the land bully dumbfounded.

This land tyrant not only couldn't take advantage, but was also scolded bitterly, full of anger, and when he left, he yelled viciously at the tea girl: "Stinky sister Ding, you don't know how to lift, let you taste the power of Uncle Ben!" ”

The next day, the landlord sent a group of lackeys to forcibly occupy the tea plantation of the two siblings. Since then, the life of the brother and sister has become more and more difficult, often eating morning meals without dinner, and relying on digging yakam in the mountains every day to satisfy their hunger.

The land tyrant was ruthless and poisonous, and he personally brought a group of family members to the door to rob people. On this day, my brother went up the mountain to dig yams, and my sister fell ill in bed due to hunger. As soon as the land tyrant saw her, he smiled and said, "Your brother has mortgaged you as the rent of the tea garden to me, and you are the master today." He laughed wildly.

The words of the land tyrant were like a thunderbolt from the sky, which stunned the tea girl. She scolded the landlord for being a man-eating jackal, and while scolding, she fiercely threw the potatoes that her brother dug up from the mountains at the landlord.

The voice was hoarse, and the tears were dry. The land tyrant gave an order: "Take it away!" A group of lackeys rushed up, tied up the tea girl and forcibly dragged her away.

The tea girl was dragged to the house of the land tyrant. At night, she desperately escaped from the overlord's mansion, she hated the land tyrant so much, and she also hated her brother for not having brother and sister love. So, she ran away from home overnight.

A month later, when the tea girl learned that her brother had set fire to the Bafu and was looking for herself, she came to her senses. She hated herself for being ignorant and falling for the land tyrant, causing her brother and sister to be separated.

Since then, the siblings have been searching for their loved ones. Brother is looking for sister, sister is looking for brother, but because of her illness, Chamei can't withstand the wind and rain, and finally starves to death on the barren mountains and mountains.

Since then, the tea girl has become a bird. She loves her hometown and tea plantation very much, and misses her brother even more. So, she chirped thousands of times in the deep mountains and mountains, "Hello! Hello brother! Hello brother! In this way, he expressed his nostalgia for his good brother.

Later, the local people called this bird "Brother Good Bird".

After listening to this story, Li and Huineng also sighed deeply for the misfortune suffered by the tea girl.

Liang Diqing looked at the wailing bird flying from afar, and talked about another folk legend of "Brother Hao Bird" with infinite emotion:

, see Li and Hui Neng are interested in these stories,

In Tianlu Mountain, where "there are many trees and few people", there are many birds. In the evening, all kinds of birds will hold a "music competition", squeaking and chirping, among which there is a dark gray bird, which is very desolate and sad, "Brother, brother, brother......" This is the legendary Brother Bird.

Legend has it that a long time ago, there were only a few families in Tianlu Mountain, among which there were two brothers and sisters and a ruthless old woman.

When the old woman saw that her brother and sister-in-law had died, she was bent on occupying their only remaining tiled house, so she abused the brother and sister in every possible way. At that time, the village was very poor, and people lived by digging yams. The old woman did nothing, and snatched the yams, which the brother and sister had dug up, leaving only one for them to eat.

Those potatoes are very deep, you have to dig deep holes to get them, and they are sour and sweet. My brother eats that sour part every time, and lets that sweet one eat for my sister.

The old lady was bent on killing the brother and sister, so she came up with an idea.

One day, when her nephew was not at home, she said to her niece: "You are so stupid, the sweet potato you eat is not very sweet, and the one your brother eats is the sweetest, he wants to starve you to death in this way!" ”

The naΓ―ve sister believed it and said, "Then how can I swap food with my brother?" ”

The old woman said, "There is a solution, that is, tomorrow when your brother digs deepest, you just need to push his ass hard with both hands, and he will give you that sweet potato to eat when he comes up." ”

The ignorant sister did as the old lady said. When the elder brother leaned over to dig the yamyana, the younger sister pushed his buttocks, and the elder brother fell into the pit.

My sister thought that there was a sweet potato to eat this time, so she called her brother loudly.

However, no matter how much she shouted, the kind brother could no longer come up.

Later, she woke up and knew that she had been deceived by her old aunt, but it was too late to regret it. Eventually, she fainted from hunger and fell into the pit and died.

After her death, she turned into a bird and spent her days around the mountains crying sadly, "Hello! Hello brother! ”
