The green hills are continuous, surrounded by white clouds, the mountain streams and streams are murmuring, and the stone walls occasionally have clear springs tinkling.

In the mountains and forests, on both sides of the streams, on the hard rock layers, a large number of wild osmanthus trees with intertwined roots and connected roots, only rely on the shallow mud layer on the rocks, grow vigorously towards the depths of the mountain forest, and the fragrance floats thousands of miles when the flowers bloom.

The name here is "Yin Yang Mountain", across the two countries of Nanyue and Dongyu, Nanyue is named Yinshan after rainy all year round, and Dongyu has four distinct seasons that is Yangshan.

Although the perennial green trees are shady, the mountains and rivers are moving, but because of the thunder and thunder from time to time, the people are inaccessible, and the legends of ghosts and gods go far and wide.

Under the old banyan tree at the foot of the mountain, an old man dressed in gray cloth, leaning on a cane, told a group of milk dolls, telling the ancient mountain legends in the distance.

"Legend has it that thousands of years ago, Yinyang Mountain was just a lake, and it was gourd-shaped when overlooking from above, which could absorb the essence of heaven and earth, and overflowing with aura.

A mysterious tribe that can talk to heaven and earth settles near the lake.

This tribe, every hundred years, will give birth to a freelander who will serve as a future priest and act as a medium of communication between mortals and the gods.

But if you concentrate on cultivating the Tao and getting married, you will be able to have a permanent face; Those who are successful can respond to immortality by penetrating the heavenly machine; What's more, there is an immortal fate and can also be feathered and ascended to immortal.

It's just that the tribe has a taboo against Freelander......

That is, 'you can enter the mortal dust, but you can't move the mortal heart', and generations of divine walkers have taken this as a precept, and they have been safe for a hundred years, but no one can penetrate the heavens and survive the eternal life......"

"Grandpa...... And then? Where has the tribe gone?"

Listening, the little milk baby's milky question, the old man stroked his beard, smiled slightly, and said: "This fell a hundred years ago and disappeared, before that, the tribe gave birth to the tenth Freelander.

Legend has it that when he was born, he was born with a vision, and after that, he grew rapidly, and when the moon was full, he looked like a child, but when he was only a year old, he became a young man.

His immortal divine power is the peak of all dynasties, but in a few years, it has been completed, and it should have been the heyday of the tribe after he succeeded as the priest, but who knows......"

"The younger generation is presumptuous, dare to ask the old gentleman, do you know that there is a place called 'Immortal Valley' in this mountain?" A clear and hearty voice interrupted the old man's story.

When the old man heard this, he was stunned for a moment, frowned slightly, and turned his head to be stunned.

In front of him, a young man who was only weak-crowned and in his prime, dressed in a moon-white robe, tied with a jade belt around his waist, and his long shiny black hair was loosely curled up by a jade-colored bone hairpin.

The face is fair and handsome, but it does not lose its nobility, the amber eyes exude a strong warmth, and the look of concentration, as if he is expecting an answer.

"Ah......h

"Wow...... What a beautiful brother."

A group of milk dolls, as the old man looked at the comer, some were stunned, some were surprised, and they forgot to ask about the second half of the story.

"Grandpa, what do you want to say, little brother" A girl who was a little older blushed and tugged at the old man's sleeve.

The old man came back to his senses, his face was slightly embarrassed, and said, "Ahem...... Legend has it that it doesn't. ”

Xindao, this young man's breath is not like ordinary people, so his eyes were half-squinted for a moment, and after thinking about it, he said:

"However, I am not talented, and I know some ...... other than legends."

"Then I don't know the old man, can you make it convenient and give advice to the juniors, how can you find this fairy valley?"

"Old decay is presumptuous, dare to ask why Gongzi wants to enter this mountain and find the Immortal Valley?"

"Pay off your debts."

Hearing this, the old man looked at the young man with uncertain eyes and did not speak.

Seeing this, the young man smiled and raised his hand to compose.

"I have an appointment with someone, I don't dare to take it, and I hope that the old gentleman will ...... Fulfill. ”

The old man retracted his gaze, his eyelids drooped, and said quietly: "Old man, I once saw a child in his teens at night, going in and out of the stream, ......"

After speaking, the old man's expression changed, and he was amused by a group of children, and laughed: "However, maybe it is not necessary that the mountain ghost opens the way, and the old man has told mythological stories for many years...... Childe doesn't have to take it seriously.

There are often ghosts and gods in the mountain, and no one dares to enter the village, and no one knows if there are any. ”

"Thank you, old man, juniors farewell."

The speaker was unintentional, the listener was intentional, and the young man's eyes were shining, and he slowly left after thanking him.

Looking at his departing back, the old man in gray got up and patted his clothes, coaxing the children sitting around.

After no one was around, he jumped on the branch of the banyan tree, took out a palm-sized bronze mirror from the leather cloth bag, and tapped the mirror with his fingertips.

After being covered by a blue halo, the original copper color of the mirror seemed to corrode and peel off rapidly, gradually revealing a clear picture as seen by the naked eye.

What appeared in the mirror was the young man just now, and he was walking on the path to Yin Mountain at this time, and there was nothing abnormal.

The only difference from reality is that in the mirror, he exudes a dazzling halo of colorful light all over his body.

At this time, the gray-clothed old man who was still in the tree was shocked, and his eyes were full of light.

"Sure enough, hehe......"

"It's not in vain for me, I've been waiting for many years, and finally ...... It's coming. ”

As he muttered to himself, he put his right hand on his eyes, smiled at the corners of his lips, and his shoulders trembled slightly.

Mountains and forests, deep streams, osmanthus forests stretch deep to the end of the water source, there is a stone wall, the vines below are covered with dense vines, and if you don't look closely, you can't know the hidden cave.

Through the darkness, the vision suddenly opens up, the sun is pouring freely, the grass is lush, and the flowers and trees are flourishing.

The air is filled with the fragrance of flowers, plants and trees, and the scents are intertwined and intoxicating.

A mile away, osmanthus, peach blossoms, and apricot blossoms form a forest in turn, and at this time, there seems to be curling smoke drifting away in the distance between the forests.

"If you are ...... If you are ...... If you are ...... Yes............ If you are ......"

Under the pergola erected by vines, a middle-aged man in a Taoist robe lay on a bamboo chair, waving a fan to enjoy the coolness, while rhythmically shouting at the wooden house in front of him.

Back room, bed

The spread quilt went up and down slightly with the breathing of the person below.

The person in the quilt moved when he heard the sound, and gradually woke up in the endless "life talisman", and then tossed twice with some irritability.

In the end, he jumped out of bed, stepped on his mud-stained cloth shoes, and walked outside the wooden house.

staring at the little eyes that had not yet slept enough, he replied helplessly to the people under the pergola:

"Stinky old man, I only came back in the middle of the night yesterday, and I didn't go to sleep until I finished cleaning up the ingredients of the medicinal diet and stewed them, so you can't do it well, let me rest more."

Hearing this, Lao Dao sat up and looked at the girl who looked a little tired but still delicate.

Her dark apricot eyes were glowing with a light aura, her cheeks were slightly bulging at this time, and her red lips were pouting dissatisfiedly, which was so cute that she could vaguely see her bright appearance in the future.

At this time, although he couldn't bear it, he still smiled with his eyebrows, and his voice softened slightly:

"If you are ...... If you are ...... I'm hungry! ”

The little girl who was called Ruoyuan was speechless for a while in her heart, and she was defeated.

Walk to the stove outside with your head down, take a look at the simmering soup pot, then pick up hay and make the stove on the other side to boil water for cooking

She sometimes can't figure out how this old man can bear to destroy her like this every day, as a child whose body is no more than a kindergarten.

However, even so, she can still endure it, after all, the two have been dependent on each other for ten years, and they have long been like relatives.

Therefore, no matter how the stinky old man called her, she was never really angry, she just vaguely felt in her heart that she owed him in her previous life, and maybe she was here to repay the debt in this life.
