Chapter 2: The Flaming Bird
…………
The Wuyin Mountain Range, tens of thousands of miles long, almost crosses the two states of the north and central of the Han Dynasty. For the outside world, the Wuyin Mountain Range is very mysterious and known as a fierce place, but for the people who live in this mountain range, it is just a secluded peach orchard away from the war, where they can still gather in the form of villages and tribes, and live a hard life.
Of course, there are also some dangerous and mysterious areas in the depths of the mountains, or some monsters. However, as long as you don't provoke it, it's generally fine......
Blue Stone Mountain, located on the periphery of the eastern vein of Wuyin, is not a high mountain range, but in the periphery, it is also a large mountain. Among them, the ancient forest and old vines, the trees are towering, there is a faint mountain fog everywhere, and there are some poisonous insect swamps, which constitute a natural protective barrier for the whole mountain range and seven or eight large and small villages.
At night, the sky grew darker and darker, and in the blink of an eye, a crimson blood moon flipped over the serene mountain tops and hung in the dim night sky......
Blue Rock Mountain, not that the stones on the mountain are blue.
According to legend, there was a mountain god in this blue stone mountain, and the mountain god held a gemstone that emitted blue light.
Thousands of years ago, there were several very powerful villains from outside the mountain, when they first entered the Fog Hidden Mountain Range and came to the Blue Stone Mountain, they actually enslaved the people living here by forceful means, and then went deep into the Fog Hidden Mountain Range. In order to stop them, the mountain god did not hesitate to fight to seriously injure them, which expelled those outsiders. Later, the mountain god, who was seriously injured and died, was rescued by a young man.
In order to repay the young man, the mountain god passed on his cultivation as a inheritance. And the young man is the builder of today's Sanshen Village.
In order to prevent any more invasion by outsiders, the mountain god village began to practice spiritual martial arts, and even taught other villages......
On the blue stone mountain, outside a village, a huge stone statue of the mountain god holding a stone bead and several zhang high is engraved with the three big characters of 'mountain god village'. And the stone bead is emitting a dim blue light at the moment, and the blue light forms a light curtain, enveloping the stone elephant behind dozens of houses and huts.
At this time, the torches of Sanjin Village burned, and the flames shone brightly. Under the stone elephant of the mountain god, there are many men and women, dressed in linen and coarse clothes, all of them are heavy and panicked, and they are discussing in private.
"Is there really a magic bird coming to attack our village?"
"The Guru said that he was born with a vision, and the demons were dancing wildly. There shouldn't be anything wrong, otherwise how could you open the enchantment in the village. ”
"If that's true, what are we going to do? Can you resist it? ”
"Yes, that's a magic bird, not a lion or a tiger, I heard that it can spit water and spit fire, and eat people without spitting out bones......"
"Aren't we all going to die, it's over......"
"This ...... Let's hope the enchantment can resist it, alas......"
In front of the panicked villagers, three old men stood side by side, and the white-faced old man in Tsing Yi on the far left frowned tightly.
may have been annoyed by the chatter of the villagers behind him, the old man in Tsing Yi turned around and shouted: "Shut up for me, there are three of us old men here, what are you panicking about."
Don't look at the old man in Tsing Yi who is weak and weak, but his momentum is very tough. Sure enough, as soon as he drank, the panicked villagers suddenly became submissive.
The old man in Tsing Yi turned around and asked the black-robed old man beside him, "Big brother, is what the second brother said accurate?" Although the flaming bird is ferocious, it is also a very spiritual bird on the mainland. It stands to reason that it is impossible to be affected by the violent atmosphere and become a demon bird, right? ”
The black-robed old man in the middle has a long beard and white hair, and a fairy wind and bones. At this moment, he is looking into the night sky with his hands behind his back and his eyes full of wisdom. The words of the old man in Tsing Yi were still unheard of by him.
The old man in Tsing Yi was anxious, "Second brother, look at this ......"
The gray-clothed old man on the far right smiled, "Third brother, you are so impatient, you are old, can't you change it." ”
The old man in Tsing Yi said anxiously: "Can I not be in a hurry!" If what you said is true, that girl has been out for a day and a night, and she hasn't come back yet, if something happens, how can I be worthy of her dead mother! With a shake of his hand, the old man in Tsing Yi should not turn his head.
"Hehe......" The old man in gray smiled and looked at the eldest brother.
After a moment, the black-robed old man shook his head bitterly, turned around and glanced at the gray-robed old man, and said with a smile: "You have given most of the pills I refined to your little apprentice, what can happen to her?"
The old man in Tsing Yi was a little embarrassed, coughed, turned around and said, "However, the second brother is also too serious."
The black-robed old man nodded, looked into the distance again, and said with a little worry: "What your second brother said is not serious, otherwise he would not let the mountains send people." This time, I only hope that the Blue Stone Mountain will continue to be inherited, even if the sky will protect it. ”
"This ......" Seeing that the second brother also had such a look on his face, the old man in Tsing Yi stomped his feet, "No, I have to find that girl." "Let's just lift our feet and go.
"Third brother......" The old man in gray called out helplessly, but the old man in Tsing Yi still did not slow down.
"Third brother, stop!" As soon as he stepped out of the blue light cover, the black-robed old man suddenly shouted. Then, the villagers behind him exclaimed.
"Look, what's that......"
"Fire! It's a heavenly fire! ”
"It's not Skyfire, it's it, it's Firebird...... It's a firebird, look! ”
"Firebird? Could it be that the magic bird? Oh my God......"
As the panicked voices of the villagers came again, the old man in Tsing Yi paused in a hurry. Looking up at the horizon, he was shocked from time to time, and hurriedly retreated into the enchantment......
Outside the Blue Stone Mountain, on a winding mountain road, the night wind blew the branches on both sides of the trees, and a woman was holding a comatose boy with difficulty, and was walking along the mountain road towards the Blue Stone Mountain. She muttered to herself as she walked.
"How can this kid be like an ice cube, cold and cold, and won't freeze to death...... No, no, if she died, wouldn't that girl be a big loss? As he spoke, he put the boy down and examined it.
"Hey......" may be tired, the woman didn't take a step firm, and the boy fell to the ground. At the same time, she also fell down because she didn't hold on.
With a bang, the woman fell on the young man's slightly thin chest, and before she could pay attention, her pale red lips touched the young man's delicate and white cheeks.
"Ahh The woman screamed, jumped up, pointed to the boy who had passed out on the ground, and said, "You, you, you...... You rascal, son of a disciple! You, this girl is kind enough to save you, you, you dare to belittle me......"
The more I thought about it, the more angry I became, and the more I thought about it, the more ashamed I became, "You are a disciple......" The woman couldn't help but kick the young man a few times, and her mouth was still chattering.
After a while, seeing that the young man was still motionless, she may have lost some anger in her heart. He wriggled his lips and gritted his teeth, and seeing that he was still breathing, he reluctantly helped him up.
"It looks so thin, but it weighs as much as a pig, and it doesn't know what to eat......" pouted, and the woman walked forward step by step.
At the end of the mountain road, there is a small hill, and the big mountain on the opposite side of the small hill is the Blue Rock Mountain.
"It's finally here, ha...... Little rascal, wait until you get to the village, see that this girl doesn't wake you up, and then torture you, hum. The woman stood on the hill and glanced at the boy leaning on her right shoulder.
"Huh...... Why did the enchantment in the village open? Could something have happened? He turned his head to look at the village in the mountains, and saw a scene of blue light that was particularly conspicuous. In doubt, he looked around.
"This? …… What is it? Fire clouds? You can fly......"
In the west of the Blue Rock Mountain, the night sky under the blood moon lit up with a fire point in the sky, and a wave of heat slowly followed, and the cool night became very warm. However, in less than a cup of tea, the fire turned into a cloud of fire, getting bigger and bigger, getting closer and closer to the Blue Stone Mountain, and the hot romantic sky was rolling. The originally dim heaven and earth were reflected in the burning of the fire clouds.
The fire cloud approached, and I looked closely, but I saw that the raging fire was actually brought up by a half-human-sized bird, and I vaguely heard that the flock of firebirds let out an angry and fierce scream, and swept towards the blue stone mountain.
"Oh my God...... They didn't want to attack the village......" In the firelight, the woman was a little shocked at first, and then worried: "You have to go back quickly, otherwise there is no blue stone crystal in the enchantment, I'm afraid it won't last long."
took out a small bamboo bottle, poured out a pill and ate it, and she immediately felt much refreshed. Putting the unconscious boy on her weak back, the woman jumped into the woods, leaped over the swamp, avoided the entangled vines, and headed into the mountains......
