126. Beautiful legends
The chain was thrown to the ground and a "Dang Chang!" Wu Zheng rubbed his red, swollen and broken barley and said to Ram with a smile: "Thank you, Sister Ram." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info" Ram said: "Brother Wu is welcome, I don't want you to be a slave, of course I won't lock you with chains anymore." The key to the shackles was lost during the journey, so it was only when Ram found a blacksmith shop that Wu Zheng's shackles were opened.
Basang snorted and said, "This kid is scheming, be careful to let him escape!" Ram pulled Wu Zheng and said, "Brother Wu is not that kind of person. Wu Zheng said: "What Ram said is right, I won't run away!" But there was a feeling of helplessness in his heart, Yi Yue stood behind him and stared at him coldly, with this woman who knows martial arts here, she still had no idea of escaping.
After a short rest for a few days, Yi Yue urged everyone to set off for Qilian Mountain, where the Tianhou Temple was located. Wu Zheng knew that the elevation of this famous Qilian Mountain Range is as high as 4,000 to 6,000 meters, and the summit is covered with snow all year round, so it is not an exaggeration to call it a snow-capped mountain.
That Qilian Mountain is currently in the territory of the Western Xia Kingdom, and Wu Zheng always thought that the Tianhou Temple was in the territory of the Dahua Kingdom, but he didn't expect it to be in the Western Xia Kingdom. No wonder he felt that the costumes of the people in the Tianhou Temple were not quite the same as those of the Great Chinese people.
Out of Qingtang City all the way to the north, the sand gradually appeared green, the grassland forest replaced the desert, looking from afar, Qilian Mountain stands like a giant on the distant horizon, the snow-capped peaks are hidden between the blue sky and white clouds, this mountain named after the Xiongnu language, still maintains the appearance of thousands of years ago, still so majestic, so magnificent.
"Legend has it that Qilian Mountain was originally a blue lake, and on the east bank of this lake there is a gem of the town, and it is said that if anyone moves this gem, it will bring great disaster to this place.
There is a small island in the lake, and there is a family living on the island, and the old couple got a son in their old age and named it Niu'er. The cow was born with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and was extremely powerful, and often cast a net to fish alone on the edge of the island.
One day, the weather was fine, and the microwave on the surface of the lake was as beautiful as fish scales, and the cows went to the island to cast their nets to catch fish as usual. Suddenly, a column of water rose from the surface of the lake, and a huge animal swam towards him, with its long beard and feet, and its scales glittering in the sun, and the cow had never seen such a large animal, and immediately fainted with fright.
I don't know how long it took, but the cow woke up, and when he opened his eyes, he saw a huge palace in front of him. The tables and chairs are of jade, and the beds are of amber, which is magnificent. It turned out that this was the palace of the dragon king in the lake, and the dragon king was sitting on a high crystal chair, pondering something, and when he saw the cow waking up, he said happily: "Xiao'er is reckless, you are frightened, please use tea." Then he said slowly: "I have lived here for many years, and I have given birth to a son and a daughter, especially that daughter, who loves the industrious and brave people of the world very much, and vows to marry someone like you. ā
Niu Er lived here for a few days in a row, and the dragon king invited the shrimp male turtle wife, Luo brother and Beng Mei and other pro-water tribes, held a wedding for his daughter and son-in-law, greatly celebrated, and gave his daughter and son-in-law a lot of gold and silver treasures, so that the old turtle and the little turtle carried the sedan chair, separated the waterway, and sent the two to the island.
Niu Er and Sister Long came to the island, but they were happy to be busy with this and that all day long, because the daughter-in-law was ingenious, there was no need for the old couple to do it, and the people on several neighboring islands were very envious when they saw this loving couple.
If you don't have legs, you can travel thousands of miles. There was a ruthless rich man in the fishing village on the shore of the lake, and when he heard that Niu Er had married a good daughter-in-law, he got on a big boat. As soon as he saw Sister Long, he was already fascinated by her, and his eyes were rolling around on Sister Long.
When he returned home, the rich man had a bad idea: "Such a beautiful beauty, I will definitely get her." He sent the dogleg to rob the dragon sister. Sister Long has an embroidery needle, and her mana is boundless, and whoever sees it is afraid. Unable to get Sister Long, the rich man came up with a poisonous plan and secretly sent someone to move away from the gem on the east bank of the lake.
The docile waters of the lake were enraged, like a man-eating beast, and brought great calamity to the people, and the waves of the lake were so great that they flooded the farmland on the shore, devoured countless villages and people, and the rich men were drowned, and the great water rushed unstoppably to the east.
Sister Dragon, in order to prevent the cow from being swept away by the water, revealed her true body, and she let the cow ride on her back to avoid the raging lake. Eventually, the lake dried up. The huge body of the dragon sister lies at the bottom of the lake, and she can no longer become a beautiful dragon sister. The cow knelt beside her and was very sad, and the tears of sadness could not be exhausted, and the result was a black river. People said they were too pitiful and desolate. Eventually, their bodies gradually became a series of mountain peaks. They stood with their heads held high, looking at one at the other, and then they became two human-shaped stones. After a long, long time, this story has been passed down from generation to generation, and "desolate" has also become his homonym "Qilian", people call those two human-like stones Rentou Mountain, and this continuous group of mountains is called Qilian Mountain. ā
Wu Zheng finished telling the legend of Qilian Mountain, and took a sip of cool stream water to moisten his throat, while Ram, who had listened attentively just now, looked at the mountain peaks in the distance in a daze, and savored it in his heart. After a while, she turned her head to Wu Zheng and said, "Brother Wu, the stories you tell are always so good, you are so powerful!" ā
Wu Zheng smiled and said in his heart: "This is all the credit of Du Niang......
Although Yi Yue has lived on Qilian Mountain for many years, she has never heard of this legend, although the story is very beautiful, and Wu Zheng tells it is also very attractive, but the ending is not happy, so she snorted coldly and expressed her dissatisfaction.
Near the foot of Qilian Mountain, a turquoise lake appears in front of everyone's eyes, surrounded by mountains and cypresses, the lake reflects the sun's rays like a smooth mirror, and occasionally a few gray cranes skim the water, rippling, such a beautiful scenery is simply a beautiful picture.
Ram jumped off her horse and ran happily along the edge of the lake, a beautiful lake that reminded her of the fairy lake next to her village. Wu Zheng and the others rode horses and slowly followed her, and Ram's gentle singing was faintly heard in the sky.
"O white clouds on the horizon, I ask you.
When will my brave brother return to his hometown?
I tell you, beautiful girl.
When the spring flowers bloom and the earth returns to spring, he will return to his hometown.
O eternal sun, I ask you.
When will my brother and I be together?
I tell you, beautiful girl.
The snow melts and everything recovers, and you will be together.
Beautiful crescent moon, I ask you.
