Chapter Ninety-Three: The Illustrated Book of Mountains and Seas

Ye Mengfei, who suddenly appeared at the door, frightened Yanagi Buhui and almost threw away the book in his hand.

Ye Mengfei, who was scattered in a cloak, looked at the stunned Yanagi Buhui fiercely, and couldn't take her eyes off it.

Yanagi Buhui was stared at a little hairy.

There was also some anxiety in my heart.

"You're awake?!"

He asked with a smiling face.

Ye Mengfei looked at him silently.

Suddenly, she grabbed Yanagishita's collar, pulled him into the room at once, turned around and kicked the door shut.

"Bang...

A muffled sound!

The door slammed behind the back.

Yanagishita is a little confused.

"What's wrong? Meng Fei?! Why is there such a big fire all of a sudden?! ”

He took Ye Mengfei's arm, looked at her carefully, and asked, "Did someone make you angry?!" ”

Ye Mengfei shook her hand, turned around, sat on the big bed, and ignored Liu Xia anymore.

Seeing this scene, Yanagi Buhui was a little anxious.

He hurriedly walked over, sat beside Ye Mengfei, and hugged half of her body, "Say, what's going on?!" ”

Ye Mengfei was silent.

"Oh, I see! Are you hungry?! Don't worry, I'll ask someone to bring something to eat right away! ”

Yanagishita Fuhui pretended to be suddenly enlightened, stood up, and was about to walk to the phone.

"I'm not hungry!"

Ye Mengfei said angrily.

As soon as Ye Mengfei spoke, Yanagi Buhui's heart let go of a lot.

He knew that as long as Ye Mengfei spoke, this matter could basically be said to have been solved for the most part.

"Huh?! You're not hungry?! ”

Yanagi Buhui looked at her suspiciously, "That... You.... ”

"As soon as I woke up, I heard you flirting with that vixen outside, and I don't know if I'm ashamed to avoid someone?!"

Ye Mengfei's voice became louder.

She shouted loudly as she slapped her hand on the bed.

"Don't make a noise! Heard it next door! ”

Yanagishita Buhui hurriedly walked over, covered her mouth and said, "What are you talking nonsense?!" Things are not what you think! ”

"Go aside!"

Ye Mengfei shook him off vigorously, twisted his head, and shook his long hair, "You think I didn't see it?!" I've been looking through the eyes of cats for a long time! The wink that tossed it... It's beautiful! Come, show me, your soul is still gone?! ”

She made a gesture to hold Yanagishita's unfavorable head and study it seriously.

"It doesn't matter if the soul is there! As long as you have this thing, you'll be fine! ”

Yanagishita Buhui raised the book in his hand and said in his struggle.

He knew that as long as Ye Mengfei's curiosity remained, she would transfer her interest to the book.

Sure enough, the strength in Ye Mengfei's hands suddenly became much smaller.

Yanagi Buhui peeked in, only to see that Ye Mengfei's eyes were already fixed on the book that looked very ancient and full of mysteries.

"What kind of book is this?! Where did you get it?! Show me! ”

Then, Ye Mengfei let go of her hands and snatched them from Liu Shita Buhui's hand.

"Be careful, don't be frizzy, it'll break!"

Yanagishita does not let go of his hand.

Ye Mengfei took the book in her hand, looked at the strange cover, and looked up at Yanagi Buhui.

Yanagishita Fue pretended to smile embarrassedly.

Ye Mengfei lowered her head and turned a page casually.

Suddenly, her face changed dramatically, her expression was very focused, and she became very nervous.

Yanagishita was surprised when he saw her expression, and hurried over to see what she saw, and was so surprised.

I saw that on the left half of this page of the book, there is a pattern like a mountain and a river, which looks like a map but not a map, and looks like a picture but not a picture.

Its lines are rough and clumsy, not at all like today's maps, nor like today's pictures, but rather like scribbles made by children.

There are several series of strange characters under it, and if you carefully identify it, you can probably see that it is a text similar to a running account.

The text says:

Three hundred miles to the west, it is said that the mountain of Zhongqu, its yang is more jade, and its yin is more male yellow, white jade and gold. There is a beast, its shape is like a horse and the white body and black tail, a horn, tiger teeth and claws, the sound is like a drum, its name is called barge, it is a tiger and leopard, and it can be a soldier. There is wood, its shape is like a tang, and the leaves are red, really big as papaya, the name is called cup wood, and the food is more powerful.

Two hundred and sixty miles to the west, it is called Tai Mountain. There is a beast on it, its shape is like a cow, the moth hair, the name is poor, the sound is like a dog, it is a cannibal. Mengshui comes out of Yan, and the south flow is injected into the ocean water, which has many yellow shellfish; Yingyu, the body of the fish and the wings of the bird, the sound is like a mandarin duck, and the water is big when you see it.

Two hundred and twenty miles to the west, it is said that the mountain of birds and mice is the same hole, and there are many white tigers and white jade on it. The Wei water flows out of the Yan Yan, and the east flows into the river. Among them, there are many eels, which are like turtles, and there are soldiers in their towns when they move. The flooded water comes out of its west, and the west flows into the Han River, and there are many fish of the fish, which are like covered with a cho, a bird's head and fish wings, and the sound is like the sound of chime stones, which is a raw pearl and jade.

On the right half of this page, an even more bizarre picture is drawn.

An animal that looks like a cow, like a cow but not a cow, like a tiger but not a tiger, with wings, hair like a hedgehog, sharp teeth and fangs, eyes showing fierce light, stepping on two clouds, and there are faint dragon scales shining in the clouds.

In this painting, the lines are extremely simple, and the brushes are a little clumsy and immature, but with just a few brushstrokes, the form and momentum of this monster are depicted vividly and vividly.

The monster on the paper was eager to try, menacing, and vicious, as if it was about to jump out of the book.

Even across the paper, Yanagi Buhui was frightened, and his eyelids trembled.

However, he always felt a little familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.

Could it be that it's a dream again?!

Yanagishita shook his head.

"Look! This one! ”

Ye Mengfei pointed at the monster and said with a little trembling, as if he was extremely frightened.

"It's scary!"

Yanagi Buhui was a little weak-hearted, "What kind of thing is the painting?" How can there be such a thing in the world? Ancient Divine Beasts, right?! It seems that this book should be a book of myths and legends! ”

"Look again!"

Ye Mengfei raised her head and looked at Liu Shita Buhui, "Think about it again, isn't that monster we saw last time in the Pishan Valley like this?!" ”

Hearing Ye Mengfei say this, Yanagi Buhui was shocked.

It seems like yes!

No wonder it looks familiar!

"That's right! It seems to be this! ”

At first glance, it was an old acquaintance, and Yanagi Buhui immediately lost a lot of fear.

After all, he and this monster have not only faced each other, but also, fought each other.

Not only have they been handed, but they have also been swallowed.

And, in the end, the monster was driven away by him with the Dream Seeker.

"Who the hell is this monster?!"

Yanagishita asked anxiously, "Since there is a portrait of it on it, there should be a description of its personal profile and living habits, maybe there will be any taboos or something, and it is very likely that there will even be a record of the method of subduing it, right?!" ”

The more he talked, the more excited he became, the more excited he became, "When we find a way to subdue it, let's go grab it and play with it as our pet!" Hey, hey, hey! ”

Ye Mengfei ignored him, and looked at the text description next to him.

Maybe it's a little old, and a lot of words are blurred.

Ye Mengfei tried her best to study for a long time, her eyes were a little sore, and her neck was almost unable to lift.

Finally, she raised her head excitedly, pointed to a passage in the book, looked at Yanagi Buhui, and shouted happily: "Look at this paragraph, I found it!" I found it! ”

Following the place pointed by Ye Mengfei's finger, Yanagi Buhui looked over.

"Two hundred and sixty miles to the west, it is called Tai Mountain. There is a beast on it, its shape is like a cow, the moth hair, the name is poor, the sound is like a dog, it is a cannibal. ”

"You say, this monster is called Qiqi?!"

"I didn't say it, it was in the book!"

Ye Mengfei pointed to the text and tapped it a few times with her fingers.

"Well, according to the book, that monster is very similar to this textual description, and it is also a bit similar to this picture, but, to be honest, the painting is too bad!"

"It's alright! Look at this book, it's so shabby, it must be an old book. In ancient times, it was amazing that people could paint this thing like this! ”

Ye Mengfei glanced at him, "Why don't you draw a picture and try it?!" You've already seen that monster anyway! ”

"This 。。。。。 I'm just talking! ”

Yanagi Buhui was bored and a little ridiculous.

"Say, where did you get this book?!"

Ye Mengfei stared at him, "Did the vixen give it to you?!" ”

"How is that possible?! Why did she give me this? How many words can she know in total, don't you know?! ”

Yanagi Buhui looked extremely wronged.

"Oh yes!"

Ye Mengfei thought for a moment, "Who gave it to you?!" ”

"It's Xiaozhi!"

Yanagi Buhui looked at Ye Mengfei, "Just now, when you were asleep, Xiao Zhi called and said to let me go over and tell me something." ”

"Then how did I not know? You didn't call me either?! ”

"Didn't you just fall asleep, what do you call it?! I didn't want you to sleep a little longer! ”

"Okay, okay, keep talking!"

Then, as I passed, he gave me the book and said he had been collecting it for years. So, I got it back! ”

"So, what's the matter with you and the vixen?!"

"What's going on?! I just came out of Oshi's room, and she just came back from outside, and I met her in the hallway. ”

"I wanted to have a dinner tonight, after all, it was the first time that so many of us got together, which was a happy event, but later, I thought that you were all asleep, and if you had a dinner, I had to wake you up, wouldn't it disturb your rest? So, I asked Sister Yujiao to tell everyone that there will be no dinner tonight, and I'll talk about it later. And then... You're going to get me back! ”

"That's all?!"

Night Dream Fei looked suspiciously at Yanagishita's unfavorable face.

"That's all!"

The willow does not benefit the face, does not change color, and does not pant.

"Okay!"

Ye Mengfei breathed a sigh of relief and collapsed on the bed all of a sudden, "I'm a little hungry!" It's all by you! What do you see?! ”

"No problem, my fault, I'll correct it! Hahahaha! ”

Yanagi Buhui was completely relieved, picked up the phone, and dialed the front desk of the hotel.

"Bang bang bang..."

Before Yanagishita's phone could be dialed, there was a knock on the door outside.

"Hello, you ordered a late night snack!"

Yanagishita Buhui quickly put down the phone, walked to the door, and opened the door.

A waiter in a hotel uniform, pushing a small food truck, was standing respectfully at the door, smiling at Yanagi Buhui.

"Thank you! Can I push myself in?! ”

Yanagishita asked, he didn't want the waiter to enter the room.

"No problem, sir! When you're done eating, stay in your room or call me to say hello! Please use it slowly! ”

The waiter smiled and bowed, waiting for Yanashita Buhui to push the dining cart into the room and close the door before turning to leave.

"This young lady! Excuse me, do you need a meal?! ”

Yanagi Buhui pushed the dining cart, pretending to be a waiter, and said in a very amiable tone.

"Wow! So much to eat! ”

As soon as she saw the dim sum full of the dining car, the soft Ye Mengfei suddenly bounced off the bed like a compressed spring, and before she even had time to put on her shoes, she went straight to the dining car.

"Don't bother, uncle! The little girl can do it herself! ”

Ye Mengfei snatched the small dining cart from Yanagi Buhui's hand and pushed the small dining cart straight to the side of the big bed.

Then, as soon as she rolled over, she sat on the big bed again, and got into the bed.

This operation almost stunned Yanagi Buhui!

"Meng Fei! You're so handsome! What a treat! The emperor is nothing more than that, right?! ”

"Hey, hey, do you want to come too?!"

Ye Mengfei picked up a piece of cantaloupe and chewed it while putting it in her mouth while saying vaguely to Yanagi Buhui.

"No need! I'm not hungry! ”

Yanagishita Buhui looked at Ye Mengfei's feasting appearance, and shook his head, "Don't eat too much, beware of not being able to sleep at night!" ”

"Looking at so many delicious foods, if I don't finish eating, I won't be able to sleep!"

Ye Mengfei enjoyed it while flipping through the book.

Suddenly, she screamed!

"Wow, it turns out that this book is "The Book of Mountains and Seas"?!"

"The Book of Mountains and Seas?!"

"Yes! You see, although the writing is crooked, like an earthworm crawling out, I can probably still see it. ”

Ye Mengfei's mouth was full of food, and she muttered, "Or, look at it, what are these words?!" ”

She closed the book and pointed to a long faint mark on the cover.

"! How can you see such a light handwriting!? ”

Yanagishita Fuhui's eyes widened and he watched carefully.

Sure enough, those intermittent faint traces were connected together, and it was indeed a bit like a few words.

Carefully identify and identify, the more you look at it, the more it looks like the words "The Book of Mountains and Seas" that Ye Mengfei said.

"Or you are careful, admire and admire!"

Yanagishita Buhui sincerely admired, "However, I have heard that the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" is the "Classic of Mountains and Seas", which is said to be an important ancient book in the pre-Qin period of China, and it is also the oldest strange book rich in myths and legends. ”

"Yes! I've only heard of such a book, but I never thought I'd see it with my own eyes! ”

Ye Mengfei is a little excited!

Even the speed at which the hand puts food in the mouth has slowed down a lot.

Yanagi Buhui opened his laptop and searched the Internet for the relevant knowledge of "The Classic of Mountains and Seas".

While searching, read it to Ye Mengfei.

"The Classic of Mountains and Seas" is also a work full of magical colors, the content is all strange, all-encompassing, contains a wealth of geography, mythology, folklore, history of science, religion, ethnology, medicine and other disciplines of valuable information, its academic value involves a number of disciplines, it is a large number, orderly record of China's physical geographical elements and human geography content, such as mountains, hydrology, animals, plants, minerals, national geography, economy, social and cultural customs, etc."

"In addition, the Classic of Mountains and Seas is also an ancient Chinese book that describes ancient legends, and is often regarded as an absurd book."

"The book includes many well-known ancient myths, legends and fables such as Kuafu's day-by-day, Nuwa's mending the sky, Jingwei reclamation, and Dayu's water control."

"The Classic of Mountains and Seas can be called a strange book, its status is equivalent to the "Book of Changes" in metaphysics, and the "Yellow Emperor's Neijing" in the medical book, although there are not many people who can understand it, but it does not affect everyone's worship of them."

"In terms of literature, almost all of China's nearly 5,000-meter culture has been influenced by the Classic of Mountains and Seas. Especially in recent years, various popular and popular TV series and movies, which are very popular and set in oriental history, are very popular online novels with oriental history as the background. ”

“。。。。。。。。。。”

Yanagi's unfavorable introduction to the "Atlas of Mountains and Seas" really surprised Ye Mengfei.

"Oh, I underestimate you, Yanagishita, you actually know so much about the "Atlas of Mountains and Seas"?! I really didn't see it! ”

Ye Mengfei stopped her chewing mouth in surprise, her eyes wide open and stared at Yanagi Buhui, with a look of reverence and worship!

"Haha...

Yanagishita was stunned for a moment, and then understood, "Little fool, how can I know so much?!" It's not ... Check and sell now! Hahahahaha! ”

Looking at Ye Mengfei's extremely adoring gaze, he smiled and leaned back, unable to support his joy.

"Whew! I see! ”

Ye Mengfei glanced at Yanagi Buhui with disdain, "I thought you knew everything?!" It turns out that it's all searched?! ”

After saying that, he stuffed half a banana into his mouth.

"However, Meng Fei, according to the information I searched, "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" seems to be an extremely mysterious book, it seems that many experts and scholars at home and abroad are doing research and research on it, and there are many papers published on the Internet!"

"Well, the more unanswered questions there are, or the more uncertain the answers, the more people are studied. This also shows from another aspect that "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" is a book that is not easy to study thoroughly, or rather, at present, no one has really deciphered this book, right?! ”

Ye Mengfei said while chewing a banana.

"So, are we going to crack this book all of a sudden?!"

Yanagishita Buhui said on a whim.

"Come on, you! Wash and sleep! Just you?! ”

Ye Mengfei's cold water was unceremoniously splashed over.

"I'm definitely not going to be able to do it alone, but isn't there still you?! Hey, hey, hey! ”

"Just you, just me?!"

Ye Mengfei was stunned, "That's not reliable!" No matter how I say it, I'm still a little self-aware of myself! ”

"That's right! Meng Fei! ”

Seeing that Ye Mengfei didn't pick up his stubble, Yanagi Buhui had to change the topic, "You see if there is anything like the monster we saw on the Peach Blossom Mountain, if two monsters appear here in a row, then maybe it can show that this book is the clue for us to solve these problems." You say, right?! ”

"I've seen this monster on the mountain, and you've seen it, so you can find it from here."

Ye Mengfei stopped what she was doing and looked at Liu Buhui, "Excuse me, this big brother, what does that monster on Peach Blossom Mountain look like?!" ”

After speaking, he didn't raise his head, and continued to look at the "Illustrated Book of Mountains and Seas".

Isn't it!?

Yanagi was stunned for a moment, and then understood!

Although I still remember that experience, I didn't see what the monster looked like at all.

They don't even know anything about the size, shape, skin color, hair, minds, minions, etc. of the monsters.

The only thing I remember for sure is probably the monster's roar that it let out twice!

According to this clue, it is almost an impossible task to find this monster in such a thick book of "The Book of Mountains and Seas".

"That's right, Meng Fei! What did you say about that monster in Taishan just now? ! ”

He suddenly remembered that the monster of Qishan was coming, so he raised his head and asked Ye Mengfei.

"What poor?! That's called Poor Odd! ”

"Oh, then, did you say how to deal with it?!"

"Nope! I read this passage, and it seems that it only says that Qiqi likes to eat people! It's disgusting! ”

Ye Mengfei said while flipping through the book.

Listening to what she said, it was as if she was about to lose her appetite for supper.

But judging from the coordination of her hand and mouth movements, it doesn't seem to affect her appetite at all.

"Then I'll search the Internet to see if there is any relevant information about Qiqi!"

"Like a tiger, with a mous hair, wings, and a strange beast. The shape is very ugly, galloping away demons and evils, and they are all running, and they are called gods and dogs. ”

It seems that Qiqi is not just a monster that harms people, but also expels demons.

"Everyone in the world says that the poor Qi likes and dislikes and destroys the good, but they don't know that the poor Qi also eats Gu and helps people, and all Gu poisons cannot hurt the poor Qi, so the poor Qi is not invaded by all kinds of poisons; In addition to people, they often feed on poisons, and the more poisonous things they are, the more they like to eat them. ”

likes to eat people, which may also be related to "people's hearts are the most poisonous", Yanagi Buhui thought to himself.

"Poor Qi stepped on the two dragons, with wings on his back, is the fastest moving monster among the four fierce beasts, the legend is that the Gonggong died after the death, can control the world of the water tribe, although the name of the beast, but similar to the dragon family, can replace the four seas dragon king Xingyun rain, can also replace the dragon king of the world to rule the dragon clan."

No wonder, I seem to have seen it, that guy does have two dragons on his feet, and he moves like flying.

After checking the information for half a day, Yanagi Buhui was sure that the monster of Qishan must be the legendary beast, and it was strange!

To know is to know.

But as for how to deal with this fierce beast, or how to subdue it, Yanagi Buhui checked for a long time, but still found nothing.

Is it true that people have never had a way to deal with this innate fierce beast?

Does that mean that as soon as they appear, many living beings will only be obediently killed? Are they all obediently lining up for it to eat?!

How can that be?!

If it really lives by eating people, then it must be removed!

However, if it is really as said on the Internet, Qi Qi also eats Gu and helps people, and all Gu poisons cannot hurt Qi Qi, so Qi Qi will not invade with poison. often feed on poisons...

In this way, it seems that Qiqi is not a heinous villain.

Otherwise, in the Qishan Valley, he wouldn't have been hit by Liu Xia Buhui driving the Dream Seeker a few times, and then he would have fled, right?!

However, it did swallow people.

For example, it once swallowed Yanagi Buhui.

So, is this poor strange good or bad?!

Yanagishita scratched the back of his head, and after thinking about it for a long time, he still couldn't come to any reliable conclusions.

"Meng Fei, do you think this poor Qi is good or bad?!"

"If you want me to say, if it is really an ancient beast, whether it is good or bad, we should protect it."

Hearing Yanagi Buhui ask this question, Ye Mengfei closed the book, tilted her head and thought for a while, and said seriously: "Look, many rare animals are extinct now, how deplorable!" If this poor strange man has really lived for so many years, we must protect it and not be harmed by human beings again! ”

"And what if it has to eat people every day?! What about mutilating living beings?! ”

Yanagishita asked again.

"This 。。。。。"

Ye Mengfei was a little stunned, hesitated, and said, "If we kill living beings, let's see if we can lock it up and prevent it from harming living beings?!" ”

"You really have a bodhisattva's heart!"

Yanagishita sighed, "Actually, I don't know how to deal with it!" ”

"I always feel that as long as it is an item left over from ancient times, whether it is alive or dead, it is worth protecting!"

"Well, indeed!"

"Forget it, no matter what! We don't have a good way to deal with it at the moment, so let's think about what to do next! ”

"That's what I intended! Tomorrow, I will communicate with Sun Yujiao and them to see the current progress of the project, and then make plans! ”

"Okay, you're the project manager, and you have the final say on the work!"

"By the way, there's one more thing I haven't told you all along! Don't be angry! ”

Yanagi Buhui thought for a long time, looked at Ye Mengfei hesitantly, and said extremely hesitantly.

"What's the matter?!"

Seeing that Liu Xia Buhui wanted to speak and stopped, Ye Mengfei immediately became vigilant, "Oh?!" I understand! Did you go behind my back and do something sorry for me with other women?! ”

"Isn't it?! Say it! ”

As she spoke, she stood up with angry eyes, holding a chicken leg in her hand that had not yet been gnawed.

"Where do you want to go?!"

Yanagi Buhui said helplessly, "It's something that Ying Feitian entrusted me with by my eldest brother!" ”

"Should you fly to the sky?!"

Ye Mengfei was stunned, "It's the one we met when we went to Peach Blossom Spring?!" ”

"yes!"

"He seems to have given you a jade plaque?!"

"That's right!"

"I also helped you wear a red rope?!"

"Absolutely!"

"Didn't we break up with him at Peach Blossom Spring, when will you two meet again?!"

Ye Mengfei asked in surprise.

"Alas! I don't know what to say about this, anyway, it's just that we met inexplicably! ”

Yanagishita shook his head, and couldn't say why, "And, it seems like I've seen it more than once, I want to think about it, it seems like at least twice." ”

"It's all in a dream?!"

Ye Mengfei stared into his eyes and asked seriously.

"I don't know if it's in a dream or in reality!"

Yanagishita Fuhui smiled bitterly!
