Chapter 122: Dreaming?
When Tao Yao woke up again, the whole person was confused. She was back on the same path she had woken up the day before. Could it be that everything before was just a dream? It's just that this dream is too real, right? In order to verify the authenticity, Tao Yao tried his cultivation, and it was indeed nothing. I tried the purple whip in my hand again, just like in my dream, it had no power at all, only some dust was raised.
But if it wasn't a dream, what the hell would have happened, and how could I be here? She remembered that yesterday she was walking around the village to check on the situation. Then all of a sudden, I felt dizzy and passed out. It's possible that someone dragged him here after he passed out, but what was the purpose of his doing this? At that time, Yu Gong's family had gone out except for the old woman and the second girl, who would have brought him here? Could it be that there was anyone else here besides Yu Gong's family? But Tao Yao looked at the sky and the extent of the sunset, which was not long before she fainted. Who is it? To get yourself over in such a short period of time without being noticed by yourself? Is there any hermit here who is not a good one?
Thinking of the possible existence of a hermit master, Tao Yao's eyes lit up. She was going to go back to Yu Gong's house first, after all, it was getting dark, and if there were any high-ranking people in the vicinity, they might know.
Thinking like this, Tao Yao walked back according to yesterday's memory. It was only after a few steps that he heard a voice behind him. She looked back and saw that Yu Gong's family had returned, hey, they still wore yesterday's clothes when they went to work in the fields.
"Yu Gong, are you coming back from your work?" Tao Yao took a few steps back, ready to go back with them.
"Hey, girl, do you know me?" The old man's expression was very surprised, and he didn't look like he was pretending at all.
"Yu Gong, don't you know me?
"Tao Yao?" the old man repeated Tao Yao's name, frowned and thought for a long time, and shook his head helplessly, "I don't know!"
Tao Yao saw the girl behind the old man, "Xiao Tian, do you remember my sister?" ”
"Hey, sister, do you know my name too? You look so beautiful, are you a fairy?" Xiao Tian tilted her head to look at Tao Yao, blinking her watery eyes, with a serious expression.
Tao Yao looked at everyone looking at her strange expressions, could it really be a dream of her own before?
Tao Yao touched the pearls in her sleeve pocket, the number was not small, she clearly remembered that she gave the old woman two pearls, so was it really a dream yesterday?
"I'm not an immortal, but I learned from immortals, but I don't know how I got here. ”
"Then you will become a fairy in the future?" the little girl grabbed the sleeve she wanted with excitement and excitement.
"I don't know about this, the master said that my cultivation is not at home yet, hehe!" Tao Yao smiled awkwardly. Although this version is closer to the truth than the version in her dream, it's just that she has cultivated now, and it would be bad if people had something to ask for.
"Girl, are you going to go there?" the little girl wanted to ask something, but was interrupted by Yu Gong.
"I don't know where I'm going, didn't I get separated from my master, thinking about finding a place to settle down and wait for my master. Tao Yao was worried that she couldn't talk about going to his house, and when Yu Gong asked, she pretended to be worried and said her plan.
"That's it, girl, it's getting dark, it's not safe in the mountains here, if you don't dislike it, go to my house for a while, and wait for your master." Things went exactly as she had dreamed.
"Then, then bother, thank you!" After speaking, Tao Yao's stomach "gurgled". Tao Yao couldn't help but hold her forehead, "Oh my God, if you're mistaken, don't be the same as in your dream!"
"Hey, sister, I seem to hear the scream of your stomach! Do the gods also be hungry?" The little girl stared at Tao Yao's stomach with a serious and curious face. It seems to be wondering why the fairy's stomach is the same as her belly, and she gurgles when she is hungry.
"Uh......" This is even more different from the dream, "Didn't my sister say, I'm just an apprentice of an immortal, and I haven't become an immortal yet, so naturally I'll be hungry." My master is nothing if he doesn't eat for ten years and a hundred years. ”
"Wow, that's amazing!" the little girl jumped and clapped her hands.
"Okay, okay, Xiao Tian, don't chase after my sister and ask, let's go back quickly, your grandma should be cooking." ”
"Well, sister, I'll take you away. The little girl dragged Tao Yao to the front, and walked home in the direction of the smoke rising.
After a while, I arrived at the small courtyard that Tao Yao dreamed of in her dream, which was exactly the same. She was arranged to rest in the living room, and then Yu Gong ran to the back kitchen. Tao Yao sat and waited for a while, and when she thought of what happened in her dream, she rushed to the kitchen.
"Girl, why did you come here, go and sit down, you will have dinner in a while. Yu Gong saw Tao Yao go to the kitchen and hurriedly called her out.
Tao Yao walked around the two and sure enough, she saw the big that was bound. "Ah, what a beautiful big, are you going to kill it?"
"That big rooster is very noisy, and I just used it to add food today!"
Yu Gong's excuse was similar to the one in the dream, and Tao Yao resisted the urge to laugh. "That's a shame, such a beautiful big must taste good. It's a pity that I can't eat meat when I practice with my master. ”
Because of Tao Yao's words, in the end, this big rooster survived.
In the evening, Tao Yao was arranged in Erya's room, and when the old woman brought the quilt, she said that she let the old woman accept two pearls.
Erya couldn't sleep because of excitement, but Tao Yao was physically and mentally exhausted, tired and sleepy after this day this time, and fell asleep not long after lying down.
Because I went to bed early, I woke up early the next day. After a simple breakfast, Tao Yao said to go to work with them. At first, the family refused. In their eyes, Tao Yao is a disciple of the gods, how can he go to do rough work with them. Later, it was Tao Yao who insisted again and again, saying that he would only follow to take a look, and the old man agreed.
Tao Yao set off with them, and after walking for half an hour, she still didn't arrive at the place, and Tao Yao couldn't help but wonder. The people in this village have moved away, and they can have cultivated some land closer to grow some food and vegetables, so why do they have to go so far?
Just when Tao Yao was full of doubts and was about to ask, Yu Gong put down his burden, "Okay, it's here!"
"To ...... Arrived?" Tao Yao looked around, where was there any field, and there was only a mountain in front of him.
Seeing Tao Yao's puzzled look, Yu Gong said with a smile, "Yes, it's here." That's where we work. As he spoke, he pointed to the mountain in front of her.
Tao Yao noticed that there were many traces of excavation at the foot of the mountain. She still didn't understand, what the hell were they going to do?
"My grandfather said that this mountain is blocking the way out here, so we have to move it out?" Xiao Tian explained to Tao Yao next to her.
"What?" Taoyao's jaw was about to fall to the ground. She swallowed incredulously. Even if her master is here, it is not easy to move mountains. What's more, these mortals in front of them, this is simply a fool's dream. Such a behemoth can't be moved even in the Year of the Monkey. After a while, Tao Yao saw that everyone was looking at her, she smiled, in order to cover up her gaffe.
"That, that, Yu Gong, in fact, have you ever thought that it would be easier to move out like others? Why work so hard, not to mention, with your strength, it is simply ...... to finish moving this mountain" wishful thinking. Tao Yao thought about it and felt that it was a little too straightforward, so she changed her words, "How easy it is to finish moving this mountain!"
Yu Gonghun smiled nonchalantly, touched his beard, and said, "This mountain is called Wangwu Mountain, and it has been here since I was a child. At that time, there were still many people in the village, but it was inconvenient to go out every time, and they had to take a long detour to the mountains. It takes at least one day to come and go. Then I thought how nice it would be if I didn't have this mountain. So I told my family about my idea, and they all supported me, so we started the road of moving mountains. ”
Support? Tao Yao thinks that this family's brains are all watts?
"When we started moving mountains, many people came to persuade me not to do this useless work. Said I would never finish moving this mountain. But I think even if I can't finish moving, I still have my son, my son can't finish moving, and my grandson, and my grandchildren are endless, and one day they will be finished. ”
"Uh......" seems to make sense.
"So, people call me Yugong, but in fact, my surname was Lu. ”
"Huh?" Tao Yao always thought that Yu Gong was surnamed Yu, and Yu Gong was the honorific title given to him by others. It turned out to be stupid stupidity. It's embarrassing, and she's been screaming foolishly.
"Alright, we're going to get to work, you can walk around here, there's a river over there, it's called Huaishui. The river water is sweet. After saying that, Yugong began to dig the mountain, and his two daughters-in-law also helped to dig, and the two sons were responsible for picking the stones to other places. The three children would sometimes help carry some small rocks into the basket, and when they were tired, they would play around for a while.
Tao Yao looked at the busy appearance of this family, and felt weird. If this family is stupid, their perseverance is admirable. Tao Yao didn't help them move the mountain, she had more important things to do, she had to go around the neighborhood to see if there was a way for her to go back. She really remembered Mo Li's way from them in her heart. Because she knew that even if they won the battle against Fuyang Mountain, it would only be temporary, because there was a real mastermind behind the scenes. I am in the light, and the enemy is in the dark. The dangers are only a little more.
She walked to the Huaishui River, and the river reflected the shadows of the trees on both sides, looking green and bottomless. She took a handful of water with both hands, wanting to taste the sweet river water, but suddenly she became dizzy and plunged into the water.
