Section 10 The Legend of the Enchantress

When Mo Yao mentioned her deceased father, her face showed a look of longing and sadness, Ye Lan knew her intentions, reached out to hold her palm, and did not say anything to comfort, after a while, seeing the pain on her face gradually receding, he asked: "Uncle Mo usually dresses up as a scholar, does he love to read?"

Mo Yao shook his head slightly, and said slowly: "Daddy only likes to paint, and he doesn't often read, but most of the people who buy paintings are gentlemen, and most of the words are sage articles. ”

Ye Lan doesn't like to read either, but he has known a lot of scholars in his life, not only his father and uncles on Willow Leaf Island are all dressed as scholars, but he is also his eldest brother Yan Zhuoran, who is also a genuine scholar, because he has always had a good impression of scholars, and when he heard Mo Yao's father hate scholars so much, he couldn't help but be puzzled, and frowned and asked: "Why does Uncle Mo hate scholars so much?"

Mo Yao sighed lightly, shook his head and said, "Daddy doesn't hate scholars, he just looks down on them......

"Despise?"

Mo Yao nodded and continued softly: "Although Daddy is just a down-and-out person who makes a living by selling paintings, his breath is very tight, and his eyes are empty all over the world, looking at the northern Xinjiang...... , No, looking at the whole of China, there is no character in the past and present who can make him look down, regardless of whether it is a former saint sage or a holy immortal Buddha, in his opinion, none of them are eye-catching, none of them are in the stream, and I don't know where he is only a painter who has no power to restrain chickens, but where he has such great courage. ”

Ye Lan heard her say this, and said secretly: "Daddy once told me that the more incapable people in the world, the more they love to brag, Uncle Mo has no beloved wife, he is down-and-out on the streets, and he makes a living by selling paintings, which is extremely difficult, and he has to take a daughter with him, so he is naturally physically and mentally exhausted, his situation is so unsatisfactory, he is naturally more prone to cynicism, pointing at the sky and scolding the sky, scolding the immortals and scolding the Buddha are all common, this is just a frustrated person's resentment, but it is not really bold...... ”

He knew that this thought could only be thought about in his heart, if he told Mo Yao, she would be extremely unhappy, and smiled at Mo Yao at the moment, and said: "Although I have never met Uncle Mo, but I know his father by looking at his daughter, the person who can give birth to a daughter like you must not be an ordinary person, maybe Uncle Mo is really an extraordinary person, but the dragon is trapped in the shallows, and he has fallen into the rivers and lakes. ”

Mo Yao nodded, and said faintly: "Since I learned that I am the blood of the Feng clan, I often think of my father, although I don't remember the appearance of my mother, but she belongs to the Feng clan, she must be a woman with great skills, but my father is indeed just an ordinary painter, except for the strange tone, there is no peculiarity, I really don't understand why people like my mother and mother would commit themselves to marrying my father......?

Ye Lan frowned slightly, puzzled: "What's wrong with this? If the two are in love, they will be together even after all difficulties, how can they care about their status and status, Taoism and magical powers? Your mother likes your father, since it is their marriage, what's so strange?"

Mo Yao snorted lightly and said, "The Feng clan is the royal family of the Demon Sect, and all of them are above the top, so they don't even look at the ordinary demon clan, how can they look down on an ordinary person who has no way at all? ”

Ye Lan smiled: " Ah Yao, you don't know, I'm bored on Willow Leaf Island, I've seen a lot of words, among all kinds of myths and legends, there are all kinds of beautiful banshees marrying poor scholars, among which the fox demon is the most amorous, how many people can't pull out their legs when they see poor scholars, either secretly cook and fold quilts, or cry and shout to give birth to children, and conjure up countless gold and silver as dowry, in addition to the fox demon, the rest of the snake demon, rat demon, scorpion demon is also everything, inexhaustible, although I haven't seen the story of a phoenix turning into a woman and falling in love with a poor scholar, I think it's just because the phoenix clan is too few in the world, your mother can take a fancy to your father, it's just another drama of a beautiful fairy falling in love with a poor scholar, which is not so unusual. ”

Mo Yao smiled and asked softly, "Brother Lan, then you said that such beautiful female goblins fell in love with poor scholars, who wrote them?"

Ye Lan was stunned, scratched his head and said, "Probably, it was probably written by poor scholars, right?"

Mo Yao clapped his hands and said: "Ah, these poor scholars can't pass the imperial examination, they have read a belly of books, except for mistaking people in private schools, there is no half-difference in the children, the income from teaching is not thick, that little silver, it is not easy to fill the stomach, if you want to buy a house, buy a land, marry a wife and have children, it is tantamount to a fool's dream." The wishes of these poor scholars in their lives, one is that they are the top students in high school, and the other is that there are beautiful ladies from large families who take a fancy to their full stomach of poetry and books, and when the time comes, their wives are hugging, and they also send thousands of family wealth, so everything is enough. But they themselves also know that they have no other ability than a few sour articles, not to mention any big beautiful young lady, even the middle widow Yaksha can't look down on them, so they can only hope that there are beautiful banshees who can take a fancy to them, banshees are not only beautiful, but also have boundless mana, want gold and gold, silver and silver, and have whatever they want, which is thousands of times stronger than the beautiful ladies who are not particular about what the big families are not paying attention to. But these scholars waited left and right, and they were willing to close the door even in the middle of the night, but they couldn't wait for half a beautiful banshee, and in their loneliness, they had to put their thoughts into writing and write them into a book, so that they could enjoy themselves and others.

Ye Lan heard that she was reasonable, and remembered that most of the countless talented and beautiful dramas he had watched were fake, and he couldn't help but be disappointed, and he was distracted for a while, and said sneeringly: "Isn't there a beautiful banshee who really takes a fancy to a poor scholar?" The world is vast, and there are no wonders, maybe there are such infatuated banshees......

Mo Yao smiled slightly, and said slowly: "As far as I know, there are also such banshees with broken brains, but think about it, even if you are overseas cultivators like Liuye Island, there are island rules that monks are not allowed to intermarry with mortals, so the factions in the northern Xinjiang, regardless of good and evil, are they human monks or demon cultivators, and which faction can let the disciples in the sect marry a mortal?" If there is such a confused female disciple in the door, eighty percent will be severely punished by the elders in her door, and it will be closed for one or two hundred years first, and then this banshee will think about it for a hundred years, and her lover will have already turned into a pile of dry bones, and how deep the infatuation will be gone. ”

After Ye Lan heard what she said, he felt a lot of bad feelings in his heart, and he was stunned for a while, and sighed lightly: "According to you, your mother and your father are not boring dramas of a beautiful fairy marrying a poor scholar, so, in other words, your father is not an ordinary person?"

Mo Yao nodded and said: "I also guess like this, but I keep thinking about it these days, but I can't remember that my father is half unusual, now he has been dead for a long time, and my mother doesn't know whether he is dead or alive, and I naturally can't solve the secret of my father's life experience." ”

Every time Mo Yao mentions his deceased father, he will be in a big mood, after saying this, he will drink a cup of stuffy wine, until he is drunk, Ye Lan has been remembering Mo Yao's words these days, "You can do whatever you want!" These days, I wanted to take the opportunity to go further, but Mo Yao's mind is now full of the mystery of his father's life experience, and his brows are tightly locked all day long, although Ye Lan's heart is itching and unbearable, he naturally will not find himself bored at this time, so he has to continue to endure it.

The two slowly walked south, and after half a moon, they finally came to the shore of the Fenlong Sea. Ye Lan grew up in the sea since he was a child, and since he came to the northern Xinjiang, he has never heard the sound of the tide, and then he saw an ocean, and he suddenly felt a sense of cordiality in his heart, and then he thought of the people on Liuye Island, and only muttered secretly in his heart: " I have been in northern Xinjiang for five years, according to the Bing'er qualifications, should have been cultivated to the realm of the wind, according to the rules of the island left Liuye Island to travel to northern Xinjiang, when I left the island, I told her not to play crazy after coming to northern Xinjiang, to come to Ningdu to find me, how come after this long time, she has not arrived at Ye Xiangju, is it ...... Could it be that there were some twists and turns on the road, so it was delayed?"

Remembering that since he came to Northern Xinjiang, he has experienced strong winds and waves along the way, and has survived several near-deaths, if Ye Bing also encounters such wind and rain, I don't know if she can safely wade through the danger, thinking of this, I can't help but be worried, but Northern Xinjiang is too vast, if Ye Bing doesn't come to Ye Xiangju by himself, he will not be able to find Ye Bing's trace in this huge northern Xinjiang no matter how high his means are. Thinking of this, I had to sigh lightly and read silently: "Ice girl, when you come to Northern Xinjiang, you will honestly go to Ningdu, but don't learn from me as a brother, you will cause ......trouble along the way."

Mo Yao had never set foot in the sea frontier in his life, and when he saw that the Fenlong Sea was so vast, he couldn't help but be very interested, so he was not in a hurry, so the two stayed in an inn near the sea on the coast of Fenlong, and enjoyed the sea view nearby.

At noon on this day, the two left the inn, wandering along the coast, the waves on the shore undulated, bringing the fish and shrimp in the sea to the shore, there are countless seabirds soaring on the shore, constantly diving into the waves to peck small fish and shrimp for food, today the sea breeze is very strong, the waves are rolling, some seabirds can not dodge, they will be swept into the sea by the waves, but there is a way that the birds are killed for food, and the rest of the seabirds see this situation, but they still keep flying up and down, preying on prey in the surging waves. Mo Yao relied on the wind to face the sea, his clothes fluttered in the wind, he only felt that the sky was high and the sea was wide, and he was full of color, and he suddenly saw countless fish and shrimp in the sea jumping up, several feet above the water surface, and countless seabirds saw the prey sent to the mouth, all of them were overjoyed, and they kept shuttling in the air at high speed, swallowing these small fish and shrimp into their stomachs, and no longer had to worry about being swept into the sea by the surging waves.

Seeing this, Mo Yao knew that a monk had cast a spell to force out the fish and shrimp in the sea to help the birds hunt, so he stared around to see who had made the move. At this time, there are many tourists on the beach, and there are monks passing by in the air from time to time, and it is not easy to see who did it. After looking at it for a while, suddenly my eyes lit up, and I saw a pair of men and women facing the sea not far away, talking and laughing, the man's eyes were like stars, and the aura was extraordinary, the woman's face was like a spring, her skin was better than snow, and the sea breeze was hunting, blowing her neon clothes dancing wildly, floating like a fairy.
