Chapter 2 Gushan Mountain God
A strong force struck, Yao Qingluo felt as if someone was holding her waist, and the huge force almost crushed her.
Tap, if you don't drown, you'll be strangled. Yao Qingluo said in her heart.
Immediately, the soft touch on the lips came to the lips, and in the cold water, the warm touch on the lips was exceptionally clear. Immediately, a warm breath swept through the limbs and the whole body. Then there was chaos in her mind, and Yao Qingluo slowly closed her eyes.
On the official road of Lin'an City.
Bao'er's apricot eyes were as red as walnuts at the moment, and she squatted under the tree and sobbed with her arms around her knees. "Miss, what are we going to do, dumb uncle. Where are we going to find Miss? Will she have ...... already"
The dumb man shook his head, raised his hand and patted Bao'er to soothe him, then picked up a dead branch on the side, wrote and drew on the ground, and Bao'er wiped her tears. Let's take a look.
"Go to Mrs. Lin first, tell the truth, and then ask Mrs. Lin to send more people to find it." Bao'er muttered, a glimmer of hope burning in her eyes.
"That's right! I didn't think that if there were more people, I would definitely be able to find it. Without further ado, let's hurry up! The dumb uncle bowed his head, and the two set off along the official road again.
Miss, don't worry. I'll definitely find you. Boa rubbed her eyes and clenched her fists. Secretly.
Gushan.
"Tick-"
A puff of air suddenly poured into Yao Qingluo's lungs, and Yao Qingluo struggled to cough to get up. The buzzing in my head faded away, and the things in front of me became clear again. Yao Qingluo stroked her chest lightly and looked around panting. Like, it's a cave. The palm is soft to the touch, and when you look down, you can see that it is white fur.
How can there be a cave here? How could I be here, didn't I fall off a cliff? Yao Qingluo was puzzled, and depending on the situation, there seemed to be people living here in this cave for a long time, with beds, tables and chairs. Yao Qingluo raised her head and found that the white curtains around the bed were cascading down one after another. It is dotted with flowers and vines of various colors.
Come to think of it, this is supposed to be a woman's room.
Yao Qingluo got out of bed, grabbed her arm and suddenly realized that the wounds on her forearm were gone! The red and purple strangulation marks on the plain white arm before disappeared without a trace at this moment.
Yao Qingluo was puzzled, when suddenly a female voice sounded.
"Mountain God Niangniang! You're awake! Yao Qingluo turned her head sideways, and suddenly a black shadow rushed in front of her without saying a word, hugging her waist tightly. A grassy aroma invades the tip of the nose. The woman hugged Yao Qingluo tightly, and the strength in her hand continued to increase, and Yao Qingluo, who had just woken up, was almost strangled by her again. Hurriedly raised his hand and kept patting the woman's back, signaling to let go.
The woman didn't notice it, and buried her head in her bosom and rubbed it in. He kept shouting words such as "mountain god", "Niangniang" and "back".
"Xiaobai, if you strangle it again, Niangniang will be strangled by you." A playful male voice rang out. Yao Qingluo nodded cooperatively and said with difficulty: "Your name is Xiaobai, right?" You let go first."
"Niang Niang still remembers my name!" Xiaobai said excitedly. Then he let go of his hand and raised his head, and the two looked at each other.
At first glance, Yao Qingluo suddenly stiffened, this woman ...... There are a pair of red-eyed beast eyes! She's not human! Yao Qingluo was surprised for a long time. The little white skin is fair-skinned and can be broken by blowing, and the pair of red eyes are even more weird in comparison. Yao Qingluo subconsciously looked at the man, and saw that the man was thin and tall, dressed in a flower-colored floor-length robe, and wore a wreath made of small purple flowers on his head.
When the man saw Yao Qingluo looking at him, he also took a few steps forward. Pick up the garland with one hand, and when she comes to her, bend down and bow, put one hand behind him, and hook the wreath with the tip of one finger to hang on Yao Qingluo's arm. Said slowly and respectfully: "Welcome the mountain god lady back home." β
When the man looked down, his face was covered with dark scales. Yao Qingluo was stunned and said, "You... Are you the snake? β
"Exactly, I was so excited to meet Niangniang that I couldn't help but want to get closer, but I didn't expect that the horse was a coward, and he ran away. I followed, but I couldn't catch up. The man said.
"But fortunately, Lord Blue Wolf saved you!" Xiaobai smiled.
Yao Qingluo recalled the pair of green eyes and the figure of the giant beast on the edge of the cliff that she saw before falling off the cliff. Knowing his head, he somehow thought of the warm touch on his lips in the water. For a while, it seemed that I could accept the recognition that there were monsters in the mountains.
After a while, a layer of redness appeared on his cheeks. Coughed lightly and said: "Well, I want to thank him for saving his life, but I am not your mountain god Niangniang, my surname is Yao Qingluo, and I am the eldest daughter of Yao Xiang's mansion in Beijing." I went to celebrate my aunt's birthday and to participate in my cousin's marriage. β
The two demons looked at each other, and then Xiaobai said, "Niangniang, don't you know us?" "There was a hint of grievance in the words." I've never been here, here... I don't even know what mountain it is. Yao Qingluo was helpless.
"This is Gushan." A rich male voice sounded from behind. Xiao Bai and the snake demon looked at each other again, as if they were relieved, and the two of them bowed in the direction of Yao Qingluo and then retreated.
Yao Qingluo turned around and saw a tall man standing a few meters behind her. When did he come? And seeing that Xiaobai and the snake demon are so respectful to them, they don't think they have a low position.
The man was tall and majestic, dressed in an inky robe. Broad shoulders and narrow waist. The face is three-dimensional and the facial features are deep. The momentum of the whole body is not angry and self-threatening, and there is a faint coercion of the superior. The man's face was extremely handsome, and under the cold face, those bright green eyes looked more and more charming and dangerous. Yao Qingluo was almost stunned.
The man slowly walked forward a few steps and said, "Legend has it that a hundred years ago, a goddess descended from the Nine Heavenly Yao Pool, and when she passed by this place, it coincided with war, the people were killed and injured, and the plague was rampant. The goddess had mercy in her heart, and could not bear to suffer this kind of suffering, so she settled in Gushan, applied medicine and porridge, and ignited the wisdom of wild beasts, so that they could not hurt people if they were good. People revere her as the mountain god of Gushan. β
Yao Qingluo blinked and said, "It's the first time I've heard this story." β
"I'm telling you this to prevent you from showing your stuff later." The man said lightly. "I know you're not a mountain god, and the mountain god has never left Gushan. But now there is a need for a 'mountain god' who has returned."
Yao Qingluo was a little stunned for a while, and touched the tip of her nose.
The man continued: "I also asked him to go, you don't have to hold a grudge against him. The man turned his head sideways, and his green eyes looked at Yao Qingluo silently. As if waiting for her to respond. Yao Qingluo thought for a while and asked quietly, "When you are in the lake...... Did you save me?"
The man bowed his head. "That's... Are you... Is it not" When the words came to her lips, Yao Qingluo was ashamed, raised her hand and pointed to her lips. Blinked.
"You were almost unconscious at the time, I took a breath to support you, otherwise you wouldn't be alive now." The man raised his eyebrows, but did not deny it.
"Oh." Yao Qingluo responded stupidly. She had never been so close to the opposite sex, but now instead of hating anger, she was a little shy. Why is that?
"What's your name?"
"Langya"
"Are you the wolf?" Yao Qingluo said. The man raised his eyebrows and signaled that this still needs to be asked? I'm afraid it's not the water that breaks my brain.
"That's... Thank you."
"If you really want to thank me, promise me one thing," the man said lightly. What's up? Yao Qingluo suddenly remembered what she had seen before, in this story, after the man saved the woman, the two fell in love at first sight, and then the woman promised to achieve a good story with her body.
Isn't that a little fast. Yao Qingluo touched her hand and touched her hot cheek.
"What?"
"Be a 'mountain god' for a while, at least until I find a way to save her. In the meantime, I'll keep you safe, it's a deal. Langya said slowly, not seeming to be worried that Yao Qingluo would refuse.
Yao Qingluo thought for a while and said, "You let me think about it again." Langya nodded. Immediately, there was a vigorous bell in the mountains, layer after layer, and the aftermath was stirred up to a hundred miles, and the woods were fragrant everywhere, and the birds flew up to the bell. Wild beasts shuttled through the forest, flying in the sky, running on the ground, and swimming in the water. They all rushed to the same place.
Langya lifted his chin and turned around to signal Yao Qingluo to follow. "The ceremony has begun, you come with me."
Yao Qingluo hurriedly followed, with a puzzled expression, "Dadian?" β
"In order to welcome the return of the mountain gods, you must accept the worship of the beasts. to calm people's hearts. β
"Why do you want me to be a mountain god, I'm just a mortal."
Langya's footsteps paused, and Yao Qingluo almost hit him in the back. Langya was silent for a moment and said slowly: "Because the Hundred Mountains Theory is about to begin, Gushan can't do without a mountain god." β
"They seem to respect you very much, why don't you become this mountain god?" Yao Qingluo said curiously, in terms of qualifications, Langya should also be the big monster inside. And it's the same demon.,It's easier to govern.γ
"When the mountain god must be canonized by the heavenly court, I am not qualified yet."
Langya is not eligible? How powerful the original mountain god should be. Yao Qingluo thought about it, but since she is also a mountain god, she is also a fairy. I think it's a lot more powerful than youkai and the like.
Yao Qingluo followed Langya through the doors made of vines and vines. Suddenly, my eyes brightened, and I saw a huge solitary peak standing in the center, surrounded by a hundred-foot waterfall, and below was a huge pool, unfathomable. Four wooden bridges extend around the lonely peak to connect the four directions. On top of the lonely peak, a magnificent building stands on the top of the peak. Tens of thousands of birds flew into the building, and a steady stream of animals on the four wooden bridges almost filled the entire bridge deck. As far as the eye can see, I can see more dark shadows gathering here.
The pool below was densely packed with fish, and the light flashed at the moment they jumped out of the water, turning into men, women, and children entering the lonely peak through the copper gate below.
Yao Qingluo had never seen such a magnificent scene. Are there so many monsters in this mountain?! Yao Qingluo's eyes widened, her face full of shock and admiration.
"Hold on." Yao Qingluo didn't react yet, suddenly a strong force came from the forearm, and the whole person was hugged into the man's arms, Yao Qingluo subconsciously put her hand lightly against the man's chest, only to feel that the chest under the palm was thick and strong, the muscles were strong and full of explosiveness, and the breath was full of man's breath. Mixed with the moist freshness of the green mountains after the rain and a slight aroma of herbs.
Yao Qingluo was a little drunk. Suddenly, the wind passed by in his ears, and his body was light. Langya jumped off the edge of the cliff with Yao Qingluo in his arms, and the feeling of weightlessness came again. Yao Qingluo exclaimed. His face was full of horror.
When he was in mid-air, his chest suddenly changed, and the fabric turned into thick hair, and when he came back to his senses, Yao Qingluo sat firmly on the back of the giant wolf. Under the palms are soft, warm fur. The giant wolf stepped into the air, and in a few leaps, it flew towards the palace.
Yao Qingluo turned her head sideways, just in time to see a chubby little tit trying to flap her wings to not fall behind, staring too intently at the butt of a big bird in front of her, and ignored Yao Qingluo, a big living person beside her.
The sky is high and the earth is wide, and there is such a mysterious scene in front of him, far away from the chaos of the world. Yao Qingluo couldn't help but take a deep breath of the mountain air, refreshing people's hearts. It was as if jumping out of the luxurious cage of Beijing and entering another paradise.
Yao Qingluo raised her hand and poked her little lightly, and the looked at Yao Qingluo with a pair of round little eyes, and then screamed, flapping her wings violently and rushing forward.
Yao Qingluo laughed. The giant wolf shook his head, and reluctantly increased his speed and quickly entered the palace. As soon as it landed, the giant wolf turned around and turned into a familiar human form. led Yao Qingluo inside.
There were already a lot of monsters waiting outside the main hall, all of them turned into human forms, and they were crowded. Yao Qingluo raised her eyes and saw three big golden characters in front of the hall.
"Hall of Ten Thousand Demonsβ"
It seems to be handwritten, and the handwriting is vigorous and powerful. Yao Qingluo subconsciously turned her head to look at Langya beside her. Langya raised his eyebrows and didn't say much.
All the monsters along the way seemed to be extremely energetic, and they were very excited to see Yao Qingluo, but because of Langya's presence, they didn't pounce. Yao Qingluo lowered her head and saw a little fox in the crowd excitedly spinning in circles, occasionally jumping up, as if trying to attract her attention.
Yao Qingluo tried to say hello to the little fox: "Hello"
The little fox jumped up, rolled his eyes and fainted.
Yao Qingluo: ......
Langya glanced sideways at the little fox, and said helplessly: "You may not know how much the demons of Gushan respect the mountain god. β
"Now I know." Yao Qingluo silently glanced at the little fox.
The two men next to the little fox both had pointed ears and fox tails. A man and a woman, the woman is enchanting and charming, and the man is chic and the jade tree is in the wind. The two of them were startled when they saw the little fox fainting, and the woman hurriedly picked up the little fox and raised her hand in her arms to pat its cheek, while the man looked unbearable.
This should be the little fox's father. Yao Qingluo felt a little funny, she was worried that she wouldn't be able to get along with the demon before, although Xiaobai and Hua Mang, who she met when she first woke up, were very friendly to her, but they were based on thinking that Yao Qingluo was the so-called "mountain god", so they would be so good to her. If one day they find out that she deliberately pretended to be a mountain god to deceive them, they don't know what will happen.
But now that I see the little fox family, I only feel that the demon seems to be no different from people.
Langya took Yao Qingluo into the main hall, only to see that the main hall was resplendent with gold, the floor tiles were paved with jade, and the pillars on both sides were carved with white jade, and various gems and pearls were embedded on them.
Yao Qingluo smacked her tongue, this demon clan is too rich! To this extent, I am afraid that even the Son of Heaven in the world would not dare to cause this. But that's just a temple in the mountains!
Further up are two royal chairs, one is pure white and inlaid with gold edges. but the Lord sits. The king chair on the side is much more plain, and it is also smaller in comparison. Langya took Yao Qingluo straight up the jade steps to the king's chair, and then he sat down on the king's chair next to him, raised his chin and motioned for Yao Qingluo to sit on the main seat.
Yao Qingluo thought to herself, no. It's a lot of pressure to sit on! But she was hindered by Langya's gaze, and still slowly rubbed her ass onto the chair.
Yao Qingluo just sat down, only to see Langya snap his fingers, as if an invisible barrier had been broken. Then demons began to step into the main hall one after another.
First of all, there was the fox clan of Fangcai, an old man with white hair on crutches, followed by nearly a hundred children of the fox clan, and the fox family was also among them. And near the front row. Just behind the old man.
The old man said: "The Huang clan of the Gushan Fox Clan - I have seen the mountain god Niangniang, congratulations on the return of Niangniang." Immediately, hundreds of fox clan children behind him immediately bowed down and fell to the ground.
Yao Qingluo was taken aback, she had never seen such a battle. So many monsters worship her as a mortal! Won't this be a loss of life?
Yao Qingluo jumped up and hurriedly said, "Hurry up, get up." Don't kneel on me", he said and was about to go down and pick up the old man. Langya coughed lightly, Yao Qingluo moved, and looked at Langya with an embarrassed expression.
His Royal Highness the fox clan looked at each other, not knowing what the mountain god was doing.
Langya said: "Niang Niang should say, Gushan Huang family, I give blessings to you in the name of God." β
Yao Qingluo responded embarrassedly and repeated.
The fox clan got up one after another with joy.
"We wish my mother all the best." Then he slowly stepped aside. The next group of demons entered the temple again. The leader was a tall man dressed in gray, with a handsome face and a tall figure. Behind him is divided into two columns, one row of men, both tall and handsome. The other row of women is also an immortal.
When he came to him, the leader knelt down on one knee. Shengruo Hong Zhong said: "The Cang clan of the Gushan wolf clan - I have seen the mountain god Niangniang, congratulations on the return of Niangniang." β
This time Yao Qingluo had experience and repeated it. Immediately, the wolf clan got up. The man at the head looked sideways at Langya, who was sitting still. There was a hint of danger in his eyes.
Yao Qingluo was a little puzzled, didn't they leave after they finished speaking? Thinking about her, she turned her head sideways to look at Langya.
Langya supported his head with the king chair with one hand, and tapped the chair handle with the tip of the other finger, his momentum was not angry and self-assured, as if he was looking at the world. Yao Qingluo guessed, maybe this wolf clan is waiting for Langya to say something? After all, Langya is also a wolf. But he doesn't have the surname Cang, is there two groups of wolves? Yao Qingluo was thinking wildly.
Langya said slowly: "Cangfeng, long time no see. It seems that you are well governed. The leading man, Cang Feng smiled, raised his right hand and clenched his fist to the left chest to give another salute.
"Greetings to you instead of the wolves. You are missed by everyone. I hope you can return to the wolf clan soon. β
"I'm not going to be the second wolf king." Langya has a light and breezy appearance.
"When you come back, you are naturally still the wolf king." Cang Feng smiled.
Langya was silent for a moment, his eyes narrowed slightly, and then the corners of his lips hooked. No more talking.
Cang Feng turned his head to look at Yao Qingluo, bowed again, and led his troops to the side of the fox clan.
Next, the various tribes led the crowd to greet Yao Qingluo, from beasts to birds to water tribes. After the scene, Yao Qingluo had already repeated that sentence over and over again, and I don't know how many times. I have already known it by heart.
By the time all the demon clans had finished meeting them one by one, it was already sunset. Yao Qingluo looked at the group of demons in the main hall. Some headaches, isn't it over yet! Then she looked at Langya for help.
Langya has been closing his eyes since the birds came, and Yao Qingluo has always felt that he just fell asleep. But every time she was in a situation, Langya could remind her in time.
At this moment, Langya should have received Yao Qingluo's call for help, and slowly opened his eyes, and his green pupils seemed to be filled with a layer of mist, slowly circulating. After Yao Qingluo looked at it closely, the mist disappeared, and her eyes became clear.
Immediately, Langya got up and glanced at Yao Qingluo, and Yao Qingluo hurriedly got up. As soon as Langya stood up, the demon clan, who was still muttering, fell silent for a moment.
A moment later.
Langya said in a deep voice: "Today, everyone is here. Our mountain god has returned, and from now on, no one can bully our Gushan demons again. β
At the end of the sentence, cheers suddenly erupted below.
"But the mountain god entered the world to save all the people, and it took too much effort. Now that I have lost some of my memories, don't worry, she has always been our mountain god! β
Yao Qingluo was stunned, Langya turned around, put one hand into a fist in the left atrium, knelt down on one knee and said: "We swear allegiance to the mountain god to the death." β
"We swear allegiance to the mountain gods!" The demons said in unison.
Yao Qingluo Rao had just taken over the demons one by one, but she never thought that Langya would also visit her. For a while, there was a lot of chaos, and he hurriedly raised his hand to help Langya get up. Langya pressed her hand with her backhand and shook her head slowly. Yao Qingluo knew that this was to let her continue to follow the previous path.
"Gushan demons, I will give blessings in the name of the gods." Yao Qingluo said in a deep voice. Then spread your arms.
Langya got up, and the demons followed.
"Everyone, let's disperse, and come to meet the mountain god again on the fifteenth day in the future. Report on all parties. It's business as usual. Langya waved his hand, and then thousands of demons turned into various points of light and dissipated, leaving.
In the huge Ten Thousand Demon Palace, it was quiet for a moment at this moment, and only Langya and Yao Qingluo remained.
Yao Qingluo breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't help but raise her hand and pat her chest. Still have palpitations. When she met the demons just now, there were a few demons as if they were going to see through her. Her eyes were so burning that she could barely parry. Fortunately, Langya helped me every time.
Langya stood with his hands in his hands, quietly watching the glow outside. The crimson sunset entered the temple, and the evening breeze blew the veil and teased the sideburns of Langya's ears. Bathed in the glow, Langya's determination plummeted at this moment, leaving only shallow and gentle. The side face is extremely handsome. Yao Qingluo watched it for a long time, and suddenly felt that her heartbeat was a little faster, and she couldn't help but raise her hand and caress her chest.
Later, Langya said softly: "Are you willing to help me with this?" β
"I ......," Yao Qingluo hesitated. She still has a family that needs her help. She couldn't leave them behind.
"You come with me." Langya turned around and walked into a secret room with Yao Qingluo. A chill came over my face. Yao Qingluo shuddered. I saw that there was crystal clear ice all around, and there was an ice coffin in the center. A premonition suddenly rose in Yao Qingluo's heart.
followed Langya to the ice coffin, and sure enough.
A woman lay quietly in the coffin. The face is delicate and the demeanor is peaceful. His face was ruddy, not at all like a dead man.
"She's not dead, she's the god of the mountains." Langya said, his eyes were full of tenderness. The tone was soft and soft, as if he was afraid of disturbing the sleeping person in the coffin.
Yao Qingluo suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, and her chest tightened. She couldn't tell why.
She looked fixedly, and saw that the woman in the coffin was dressed in a xia robe and holding a flower. I think someone picked fresh flowers for her every day.
"Why is she like this?"
"She consumed too much of her inner element, and she had to fall into a deep sleep to stay alive. Her name has long been associated with the thousands of living beings in Gushan, and if she dies, Gushan will also be greatly injured. Langya said.
"Then why don't you change to a mountain god? She fell asleep day by day. If you can't even turn over, it will be very painful," Yao Qingluo asked. If you put it on her, you want her to stay in a sleeping position for a year. She's going to suffocate.
"Gushan only recognizes her as a mountain god." Langya said indifferently.
"Why?"
"Twenty years ago, there was a fire in Gushan that burned for a whole day and night, ordinary water could not extinguish it, the fire spread, and many lives died. She was a guest in Wuxia Mountain at the time. After hearing about the fire, he rushed back to Gushan overnight. But it was devastated. Langya said slowly, Yao Qingluo could already imagine the despair of the creatures at that time and the grief of the mountain gods.
"A mountain without a mountain god will die, but a mountain god without a mountain will not hurt, and you can go to another mountain."
"But she didn't go." Yao Qingluo received.
Langya nodded. She looked at the sleeping woman softly, and a smile wrapped around the corner of the woman's mouth. Sleep quietly and peacefully.
When she returned, she was devastated, and only birds and a few animals escaped from the whole Gushan. Most died in that fire. Later, she chose to rebuild Gushan with her own inner element, and when she released her inner element, the dead wood was revived, and the dry river was once again greeted with cool water. The dead beast reopened its eyes. β
"Everything went back to normal, but only she was unconscious." Langya sighed.
"So, I hope you can promise me this, the mountain god is everything to Gushan."
"I..."Yao Qingluo said slowly.
"I'm sorry, I can't promise you. I have my family. β
