June 15.

The underworld, the misty forest, the small building in the middle of the lake

Xiao Yin stood up from the emerald rattan chair, stretched slightly, walked to the railing and looked up at the crimson side of the sky. Unconsciously, when her eyes were attracted by the book in her hand, the leisurely time belonging to noon had passed. Put down the pale gray volume of books in his hand, stained with black and red marks, and a corner of the book...... It's time to prepare dinner.

She skillfully folded the rattan chairs and threw away the scroll of the Legacy Scroll and printed it on the endless wheel. A limited corner of the communication wheel to acquire the knowledge you need. This can be said to be a unique secret method learned from the Star Teacher, and it can also be said to be the back door engraved for her by the Star Teacher on the Endless Roulette Wheel.

After coming to the kitchen, Xiao Yin found that there was not much rice left.

After nearly a year of not seeing, Xiao Yin looks more mature, and seems to be more slender and tall. Between words and deeds, it gives people a wonderful feeling of intellectual wisdom. It's just that...... I'm still sorry for my boobs, but I'm sorry, mmmm, it's all my fault!

"Xingyu, there is no rice, I'll go to Qingqiu to find those foxes to exchange some rice later. ”

"There are really no rules, how many times have I said it, I want to call the teacher. An annoyed voice came from the second floor of the hut.

"Teacher Chen'er~"

"Die! If you dare to be unruly like this, you're welcome!" Zhang Chen'er's unhappy voice came from the hut on the second floor, and he said in a threatening tone: "Speaking of which, Xiao Yin has never gone out except Qingqiu during these times in the Yin World, do you need me to throw you to the Dark Sky Mountain, where the sinkhole most often appears, you can go in and take a look to see what is inside." This is one of the top ten puzzles shrouded in the underworld, if Xiao Yin solves it, the teacher will reward him~"

"Please don't. "Although Xiao Yin didn't go out much, it can be seen from the name of the 'sinkhole', that is, the sub-hole that appeared near the Dark Sky Mountain, what a second thing this is, even the existence of the May Dragon Queen can only roar and vent...

Secretly comparing herself, Xiao Yin wisely chose not to continue on this issue. She walked towards the small building in the middle of the lake and the wooden bridge on the shore of the lake, and said without looking back: "Teacher Xingyu, I'll go to Qingqiu first." You can figure it out for dinner, and I won't be back tonight. ”

"Hmm. ”

In the forest, because of the sparse population, the fallen leaves and dead branches have long flooded the bluestone road.

Under the heavy fallen leaves, there is a bluestone path that is about to be buried, and the mossy path is lined with dense plants, which are not far from each other, and it does not seem very crowded. In the glade, a few low saplings were drilled out scattered, stretching the branches, and drilling up with all their strength, the branches were thin and straight, and only a cluster of green leaves was dotted on the top.

Stepping on damp dead leaves, the soft feet feel quite good...... Of course, this is to ignore the dead leaves and sludge that stick to your pants.

The spring, summer, autumn and winter of the year in the misty forest are the same, and the thick fog never dissipates, and the brilliance is as dark as usual. For the flora and fauna of the forest, the alternation of the seasons gives them a very weak feeling. The dense mist blocks out the sunlight, except for the middle of the lake, the forest is surrounded by water mist all year round, and this thick mist is like a heavy coat, keeping the temperature of the forest in a greenhouse environment.

Moist and warm.

Misty, there is not dark looking.

I can never see clearly, I can never figure it out.

This is the Hazy Forest, just like her master, the one who can't be understood.

In this environment, mushrooms and ferns are extremely vigorous, and mushrooms and ferns have sprung up from the fallen branches of old trees, decaying leaves, and even rocks. Xiao Yin carried a basket and walked towards a dead branch with strong fungi on the side of the road......

If you are good at discovering, there will always be no shortage of ingredients in the forest, but ah, as a staple food, these things in the forest are a little weak. Mushrooms, bracken, wild fruits...... I can't get enough of these things no matter how much I think about them.

......

Because mushrooms and ferns are quite abundant in the forest, Xiao Yin picked a basket without a group. She looked at the basket, nodded in satisfaction, and walked out of the forest. The green hill is actually small, basically located on the outskirts of the misty forest and in a small basin around it, and by the way, there is the hillside overgrown with forget-me-free grass, which is one of the favorite spots of those little foxes.

Half an hour later, Xiao Yin, who walked out of the misty forest, wiped off the wet moisture on her body.

After walking south of the misty forest for more than ten minutes, she came to the hillside covered with forget-me-free grass, and saw a few pure white foxes laughing and frolicking on the hillside in the distance. After discovering Xiaoyin, these little foxes all chattered in order to come up.

Walking into the area where rice grows in all seasons, Xiao Yin wanted to say hello to the foxes around her.

She has been here once a month for the year. In exchange for the rice they planted, there have never been many foxes in Qingqiu, counting the foxes who left Qingqiu, there are only a few hundred, these foxes are born with wisdom like humans, and they don't have to think about ordinary monsters.

From this point of view, what is the difference between them and humans?

Xiao Yin has her own understanding of the definition of "person", which may be a little deviant for others, but it has been formed.

Person: An individual with an independent mind, non-class.

For Xiao Yin, the human race is just a race in the big concept of [human], and it is by no means the whole of this concept.

In a casual conversation with Xingyu, Xiao Yin learned that the origin of the Fox of Qingqiu was in the early days of this era, and it was once an extremely glorious clan. Legend has it that long ago, their clan had more than a dozen clansmen who had cultivated the Perfection of Heavenly Arts, and they once ruled an era. Then, something happened, and all the people of this clan who had cultivated the art of reaching the heavens died out, and they weakened...... In order to preserve the continuation of the race, they collectively evacuated from the Yang World and settled in the eternal peace of the Yin World Qingqiu.

"Sister Xiaoyin, are you going to make something for us to eat today?"

"Yes, yes, I want to drink mushroom soup, Sister Xiaoyin's cooking is much better than that of my mother. ”

"Don't, I'm going to eat braised mushrooms!"

"Don't eat it, don't eat it, I'm tired of eating mushrooms. ”

"No, braised mushrooms are the best to eat, so you won't get tired !!"

"Do you !! want to fight!?"

"Come on, who's afraid of whom?" said that, the two little foxes rolled into a ball under Xiao Yin's wry smile.

"Okay, okay, can't I do it all for you!" Picking up a little fox in one hand, Xiao Yin promised loudly. Then she cast a resentful gaze at the old fox around her...... Ahh

Qingqiu is never short of food, and with rice fields that grow all year round, they certainly don't care about food.

The first time they came to this rice exchange, they said they wanted to give it to her. But Xiao Yin was embarrassed to accept it like this...... After thinking about it, she brought some ingredients from the forest and made something delicious for the little foxes as a reward. From then on, the little foxes were happy, and every time she came, they would circle around her.

......

"Xiao Yin, this is your rice. A fox in human form came with a bag. Looking at those happy little foxes, she also smiled: "These little guys are always so noisy, it's rare that you can like them......"

"No, these little ghosts are cute. ”

"Last time I heard Xingyu mention it, saying that you are leaving the netherworld, is it true?"

"Hmm. Xiao Yin nodded and said, "Counting the time, it's been almost a year since I left home...... It's time to go back. ”

yes, it's been almost a year since I left Xiaoli and Rin. Since I met Xiaoli, this is the longest time I have been away, a year...... It's not long, but it's so slow in her eyes. Fortunately, this is the last time! Xiaoli, I will be back to you in a short time.

No one to sort out your clothes for you, no one to prepare dinner for you, no one to clean up your room for you...... Are you alright?

Stay overnight in Qingqiu.

On the edge of the golden rice fields, one of the exquisite wooden houses scattered in a patchwork belongs to her.

This was prepared for her by the little foxes, and every time she came, the little foxes would pester her and ask her to stay overnight.

Why......

The night was clear, and the stars could be seen looming through the open wooden windows. The sky of the underworld is clear and clear, there is no pollution from modern industry, and in the deep canopy, the stars are brighter than the yang.

"Sister Yin, Sister Yin, continue to tell us the story of the last time, we haven't finished listening to it yet~"

"Yes, last time the story wasn't finished! Last time you said that the Empress ascended the green mountains and cast the Seal Sendai to anger the Heavenly Realm, and then there were villains and celestials descending from the sky...... And then then~"

"yes, what happened to that country?"

A few children with fluffy ears nestled on Xiao Yin's bed, holding their own pillows and looking at her expectantly, the tails behind them wagged one after another, and from time to time they gave their companions a look, covering their mouths and snickering in the annoyed eyes of their companions, which was really cute.

Raising the pillow, Xiao Yin grabbed a little fox lying on her chest, and after rubbing her head, her face was filled with emotion, and she whispered: "Then, that kingdom collapsed in the powerful power of heaven and man, and only three of the thirty-six cities scattered all over the earth were left in just a few years. ”

"Didn't you say last time that she was more powerful than a god? A little fox asked nervously.

"Yes, and the Burial Curtain Sage, you said last time that the Feng Xiantai she is working on, if it succeeds, it will be able to lock the path of the celestials, and they will not be disturbed by the celestials. ”

"And the Tibetan Secret Sage......"

"During these years, the Tibetan Esoteric Sages traveled through cities to help those who had lost their homes find a way to survive. The Hidden Rain Sage rushed into the passage of heaven and man alone, and he was gone for ten years. Together with the first sage, Her Majesty the Empress, the Tibetan Shogun and the three sages of the court made the Seal Sendai at the top of the green mountain......"

"Then, did you defeat the heavens and live a happy life?" a little fox looked forward to it.

"No...... Xiao Yin smiled lightly, looking out the window, and her tone was dark, as if it was also in the past.

"While the whole kingdom was working hard for it, the thirteenth sage introduced the heavenly beings into the green mountains. The Celestial Beings set a benchmark for the Heavenly Realm with themselves as the standard, and a white light that penetrated the heavens and the earth destroyed the green mountains...... Feng Xiantai, the empress, and the three sages all disappeared in the white light...... The Celestial Man died, but more Celestial Beings came, and they destroyed the last three cities. Xiao Yin said in a flat and low tone. She doesn't know much about this story, there must be a lot of secrets and sorrows hidden in it, even if it is such a long time, she still doesn't want future generations to know...... These little imps don't need to be understood.

"Woo, wouldn't that be too sad for that story. ”

"Yes, how could Her Majesty the Empress die? Didn't you say a few times ago that the Empress and the three sages of the court had endless lives?

"Little fool, endless life is never a reason not to die. After scolding with a smile, Xiao Yin continued: "In the next ten years, under the interference of the heavenly people, this clan is almost dead. Thirty-six cities were all bones, and they were covered with white ground. ”

"Then, has the Hidden Rain Sage returned from the Heavenly Realm?"

"Well, there is. ”

"The Hidden Rain Sage, who had lost his eye, returned in the eleventh year of his absence. But what awaits her is a ruined ruin, the original city has long since been destroyed, the golden crops have been replaced by lush weeds, and there is not a single one left of her people. The Hidden Rain Sage found the rest of the sages, learned about the death of the empress and the three sages, and also knew that the Hidden Curtain Sage was dying. ”

"For the sake of the clansmen, the ten sages decided to give up their long lives, take the sealing of Sendai as the material foundation, take themselves as flesh and blood, and take the endless resentment and sorrow and hatred of the dead clansmen as their will, open the fetal membranes of heaven and earth, and link the endless roulette...... Finally, they built a Tower of Babel for Eternity. ”

"Woo, I don't listen to it, I don't listen to it, I like the story of the last time the empress met the three sages. ”

"Me too, I'm going to hear the story of the First Sage who built the school. ”

"Mmmm, Sister Yin, I don't want them to die~~" A little girl pulled the corner of Xiao Yin's clothes, tears in her eyes: "Let's tell the story of them defeating the heavens and protecting their homeland." So that the empress and the three sages would not die. ”

"Stories, stories, deceased, how can there be flaws. Seeing a group of little foxes looking at her stunned, Xiao Yin continued; Rest assured, the next is the happy story. ”

“？？？”

In the expectant gaze of the little foxes, Xiao Yin continued: "After the completion of the Eternal Babel Tower, the third eye formed by the thirteen sages who practiced the art of Babel, that is, the Babel Divine Eye in the center of the eyebrows, was deprived of the tower and imprinted on the Babel Tower, and she lost her sage personality and was finally exiled. ”

"You deserve it!" said the little fox

"That's it, if she hadn't brought in the celestials, those sages wouldn't have died!!"

Xiao Yin rubbed the little girl's little head on her body and continued softly: "...... After the Eternal Tower of Babel deprived the Thirteen Sages of their divine eyes, it flew into the sky with ten colors of divine light and sealed the Celestial Tunnel. Then it left its former home with the last of its people and came to a new home that would always be carefree...... Well, after that, they went on happily with the sage's last wish. ”

"Whoa, but, but I want the sages to live...... Her Majesty the Empress and the love between the Three Sages ended before it began, I don't want it! There is also the Tibetan Sage, who said that she wanted to build the most beautiful Sky Academy, but it was not completed. And the Hidden Rain Sage, she said......"

"Woo woo woo ~ ~"

Some little foxes even pounced on Xiao Yin: "Sister Yin, let's talk about other stories." ”

"Be happy this time!"

"Okay, let's tell a story about the moon tonight. After playing with the little fox for a while, she got up from the bed, pointed to the bright moon in the distant sky and said, "Do you know, a long, long time ago, the moon did not exist, and at that time, whenever the sun set, there were only stars left in the sky......

.........

"Village Chief, is this good?" Not far away, several old people sitting around the moon tasting wine had tears on their faces, and one of them looked at the room where the story was told, and whispered to the old man on crutches: "These things buried in the long river of history, these little hairy children don't need to know." ”

"It's okay, it's been so long since you've passed, and some of the past has long been gone. The old fox on crutches smoothed his beard and calmly raised his wine glass: "Qingqiu is still there, we are alive, and we will follow the will of the sage, and this is enough......"

"Isn't this situation at this moment worth a drink? ”

"Qingqiu is still the same, it is worth having a drink. ”

“...... Cheers. ”
