Chapter 43: The Legend of Xiangfei Bamboo

After eating on the second day, Liu Yunwen cleaned up and Luo Sangong, Liu Jingwen said hello, and took the little white rabbit to the back mountain. She was going to the bamboo sea in the back mountain to get some bamboo shoots, and at noon she made oil and poured bamboo shoots for her master and them to eat.

In this season, it is difficult to find fresh bamboo shoots in the bamboo forest where the sea is lower, so as soon as she goes out, Liu Yunwen takes the little white rabbit to live directly in the middle of the back mountain. As if he knew her thoughts, the elf jumped up and down in front of him, and looked very excited.

The mountain behind the temple is an endless sea of bamboo, standing on the mountain and looking down, except for the few looming peaks in the distance, the eyes are full of verdant green bamboo, like the waves of the sea surging in the breeze, the layers of houses are stacked, and the sound of the waves is soft.

The bamboos in Jiufeng Mountain are not big, only the thickness of people's big fingers, but the roots are straight and delicate, and the strip-shaped Ana, just like a girl in the wind, is light and swaying. Each verdant bamboo was stamped with specks like tears, as if someone had actually shed tears on the bamboo. People call these bamboos spotted bamboos, also called Xiangfei bamboos.

Speaking of this Xiangfei bamboo, it reminds people of the poignant love legend in ancient times.

A long time ago, in ancient times, there were nine fierce black dragons living on each of the nine peaks on the nine peaks. Every once in a while, they will meet to go down the mountain to the Xiangjiang River to play in the water, stir up wind and waves, and harm the people. The people on both sides of the Xiangjiang River are miserable, and their lives are very hard.

At that time, the young and handsome Emperor Renshun had only been married for a month, and in order to understand the hardships of the people of Limin, he resolutely bid farewell to his newlywed wife Huang'e and Nuying, and went south to patrol. When he came to the Jiufeng Mountain Area, he saw that the people along the Xiangjiang River had made the black dragons on the mountain miserable, so he went alone to find the nine evil black dragons, and after fierce fighting, the nine evil dragons were killed under the sword, creating a peaceful environment for the people along the Xiangjiang River.

Many years have passed since Shun's southern tour, and Huang'e and Nu Ying Sifu were heartfelt, so they decided to go south to find their husband. When they walked to Dongting Lake after two years of trekking, they got the bad news that Shun had unfortunately died in the south of Cangwu due to malaria.

The two daughters of the emperor couldn't help but be heartbroken when they heard the bad news, tears rained down, they continued south along the Xiangjiang River to Cangwu to find Shun's burial place, the wind blew their tears everywhere, and fell on the green bamboo and solidified into this sad spot. In order to miss the second daughter of Empress E, people named this bamboo Xiangfei Bamboo, a very beautiful and beautiful name.

Liu Yunwen followed the little white rabbit to the middle of the mountain, and it was already difficult to walk in front, densely covered with bamboo. The sea is already very high, and the bamboo forest is full of young bamboo shoots that have just broken through the soil. She put down the bamboo basket on her back and found a slightly flat place to rest. The ground around me is full of newborn shoots, and you can easily pull a handful.

Soon Liu Yunwen was full of half a bamboo basket of fresh and tender bamboo shoots, and she walked farther today, and she estimated that the time was almost up, and she was ready to go down the mountain.

When she got up and was about to call the little white rabbit, she didn't see its shadow, this little guy is not far from her on weekdays, where is this running today? Liu Yunwen screamed twice, and when she heard the sound of cooing in front of her, she put aside the dense bamboo in front of her with both hands and walked forward to see if the little white rabbit was there.

She walked a short distance forward, and saw that it was indeed the little family squatting there, holding a thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum in its two front paws. Where did the Ganoderma lucidum come from in this bamboo forest? Liu Yunwen was a little strange, where did this little white rabbit find Ganoderma lucidum in such a short time? She hadn't seen a thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum, but it was estimated that the age of seeing this thing in the depths of this mountain was definitely not close. The little white rabbit is a very spiritual elf, and it will not eat ordinary Lingzhi.

After a while, the little white rabbit was gnawed to the point that the little white rabbit had eaten no slag, and it wiped its mouth exaggeratedly with its front paws, raised its dumb head and erected two pointed ears, and its two increasingly red eyes looked straight at her, and its slender beard trembled with its breathing.

Liu Yunwen was so amused by its cute appearance that she couldn't help but laugh out loud. She beckoned to it and smiled, "Good little rabbit!" I'm going home with my sister! ”

The little white rabbit did not jump up to her and let her hug her, as usual, but remained crouching there motionless.

Liu Yunwen beckoned to it again: "Good, go back, come over and let my sister hug you!" ”

The little white rabbit turned around and jumped on the hill behind it, it jumped not far away and stopped and looked back at Liu Yunwen, which clearly meant to ask her to follow.

The road up the hill ahead was already very difficult and difficult to walk. Liu Yunwen didn't want to go up, but the little white rabbit was very stubborn, and she didn't move it, and she squatted there without moving.

Where is the little white rabbit going to take himself? In this inaccessible mountain wilderness, Liu Yunwen's heart was still a little scared, after all, she was still a child under the age of sixteen. The depths of this mountain are full of mysterious dangers.

Mo Sangong once told her about a mysterious incident that happened in the temple in the last years of the Qing Dynasty, which made her even more in awe of this mysterious Jiufeng Mountain.

According to the records of the temple in the courtyard, in the summer of 1879, a group of Qing soldiers suddenly came to the temple from outside the mountain.

This group of 50 officers and soldiers, five of whom were government officials, stayed in the temple for a day, saying that they had come to search for the treasures of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. When the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was in a hot state outside the mountains, a large number of Taiping soldiers lived in Wuma Town for a period of time, and they rested here to recuperate and recruit troops. But I never came to this temple hidden in the depths of the mountain, but went along the official road through Jiufeng Mountain to Jiangxi.

The next morning, the people of the temple woke up early in the morning to find that none of the officers and soldiers who had lived here last night were gone, as if they had all disappeared overnight. Later, the government sent a team of officers and soldiers into the mountains to look for it, but after looking for more than ten days, there was no trace at all, and an army of fifty people disappeared silently and out of thin air, which is also too weird.

Why this team of fifty people disappeared without a trace overnight, without a trace, is still an unsolved mystery.

Liu Yunwen saw that the little white man was not moving there, so she walked over to see where it was going to take her, although the more she went up, the greater her timidity, but with such a little life by her side, she was not so scared.

Liu Yunwen followed the little white rabbit all the way up the mountain, the more up the bamboo is more scarce, and then there is no bamboo, there is no road, there are green vines everywhere, the peaks that go straight into the clouds are blocked in front of you, on the left is the woods, wild vines crisscross the cliffs, standing here you can see the peaks of different sizes looming in the clouds and mist under the cliffs. The bamboo sea she was in just now was already under her feet.
