Chapter 137: The Fountain of Forgetting Worries
Lu Qianmo didn't sleep well this night, and woke up and slept many times halfway, but because he didn't rest all night last night, his body was still very sleepy.
She woke up and fell asleep, and by the time she woke up completely, it was past lunchtime. The first thing she did when she woke up was to look for traces of Yun Moxi's coming, but after looking around, no one in the room had come.
The feeling of loss crept up in her heart, she hadn't explained what happened to the other party last night, and with Yun Moxi's attitude after resting, she really wasn't sure if the other party had any intentions.
If it were her, she would inevitably feel sad. However, Yu Wenhan once saved herself, how could she watch the other party die in front of her?
She saw it clearly last night, Yun Moxi really wanted Yu Wenhan's life. She didn't blame him, she knew that if she changed to Yu Wenhan, she would not be merciful to Yun Moxi.
It's just that this time she stopped Yun Moxi's sword, so what about after that? Based on what the two of them want, they will definitely meet again in the future, so what will happen then?
In addition to being anxious to explain to Yun Moxi, Lu Qianmo always felt a faint uneasiness in her heart, perhaps because she hadn't seen Yun Moxi for most of the day.
Lu Qianmo planned to go to Master Lingxu's meditation room to have a look, but she saw Yu Wenchun coming out of a room halfway.
Yu Wenchun also saw Lu Qianmo, "Does this son know you?" ”
"On that day, the team of the Northern Desert Mission entered the city, and I was fortunate to see it below." Lu Qianmo bowed slightly and explained.
Yu Wenchun bowed slightly, "Childe has a good memory." ”
"As a prince, it's hard not to attract everyone's attention." Lu Qianmo's implication was that he was just an ordinary onlooker at that time, and it was Yu Wenchun's own identity with his own aura.
Yu Wenchun smiled and said, "The son can be called Xia Ah Chun, I don't know how Chun should call you?" ”
Su Wen Yuwenchun is modest and low-key, does not fight or grab, and Lu Qianmo is not polite, but calling Ah Chun is too intimate, and calling Yuwen is easy to expose his identity, she thought about it and said: "Under the surname Lu, I will call you Chun Gongzi." ”
Yuwen Chun bowed his head to agree, "I have long heard that Dongyue's vast mountains are majestic and the scenery is beautiful, and it just happened to catch up with the heavy snow season, and I came to enjoy the scenery when spring was empty." Meeting Lu Gongzi today can be regarded as a kind of fate, I wonder if Chun will be lucky enough to invite Lu Gongzi to enjoy the scenery together? ”
Last night, Lu Qianmo was still thinking about why Yu Wenhan suddenly appeared, and when he saw Yu Wenchun here today, he didn't know if he could find out something? Although Yu Wenchun doesn't like to participate in the court situation, he is the third prince of the Northern Desert after all, and he has been in it since he stepped on the territory of Dongyue.
Besides, Lu Qianmo didn't believe it was a coincidence.
"It's an honor to be able to enjoy the scenery with Chun Gongzi."
"The Forgotten Sorrow Spring Temple is named after the spring, why don't we go and see this Forgotten Sorrow Spring first?" Yu Wenchun suggested.
"Very good. However, I also asked Chun Gongzi to go outside the temple first and wait for me for a while, and I told my companion to come. Lu Qianmo planned to tell Yun Mo to breathe, lest he not find himself by then.
However, Lu Qianmo still couldn't see Yun Moxi, and she was blocked when she found the outside of Master Lingxu's meditation room. The little monk who blocked her just said that Master Lingxu had ordered that no one should enter casually.
Lu Qianmo went around again and again, but the little monk who blocked her didn't get in, and refused to let her in no matter what she said. Because this is a temple, Lu Qianmo didn't want to make too much trouble, so in the end he could only ask the little monk to help convey his words.
Located on the right rear of the temple, it is surrounded by heat and covered with snow.
However, what attracted Lu Qianmo the most was the towering ginkgo tree. In terms of size, it is at least a hundred years old, and it must be extremely beautiful if it is at its best. The wooden plaques hanging on the branches of the ginkgo trees record the wishes of countless men and women, due to the age, some wooden plaques have been eroded by the wind, but you can also see some brand new wooden plaques, which shows that this place has always been a place of sustenance for people.
Yu Wenhan approached a large stone tablet, and if he looked closely, he could still distinguish the outline of the words on it. "I heard that the Spring of Forgetting Worries has been a famous scene since the Xia Dynasty, and the wind-eroded words on the stone tablet can also reflect that this is a mark in the long river of history."
"I didn't expect that the Forgotten Spring has a history of so many years, and it must be not many years younger than it, and it must have its uniqueness if it can be passed down for hundreds of years." Lu Qianmo sighed.
"Definitely."
"Oh?" Lu Qianmo was puzzled, "Please also ask Gongzi Chun to solve one or two doubts for me." ”
Yu Wenchun looked at Lu Qianmo and asked, "Lu Gongzi is not from Yicheng?" ”
Lu Qianmo admits that no. "Not really."
Although Lu Qianmo admitted that he was not from Yicheng, he did not tell him where he came from, and Yu Wenchun did not ask. "No wonder, if the people of Yicheng would know the legends and stories."
"I'm interested right now."
"Legend has it that hundreds of years ago, when there were no people in the vast mountains, one day in the cold winter, a young man came here unintentionally after getting lost in the vast mountains. Here he saw a fairy-like woman sitting by the spring and weeping, but there was no trace of pain or melancholy in her expression. The boy felt strange, and after observing for a long time, he found that the woman did not pay attention to his arrival, and sat by the spring by herself, and what surprised the boy even more was that the woman's tears finally dripped into the fountain of forgetfulness. ”
"You mean that the spring of the Fountain of Forgetfulness is made up of the woman's tears?" Lu Qianmo asked.
"Legend has it so."
Lu Qianmo smiled, thinking that no matter what world there are some legends, there are always people in the world who believe in these legends, and there are always people who don't, obviously Yu Wenchun is the latter. "And after that?"
Perhaps it was the curiosity of the young man that he did not leave that day, but later he found that he did not feel a chill here in the cold winter season, and then looked at the woman's clothes very thinly, which made him even more curious. Maybe it's because he's young and fearless, maybe it's because he's ignorant, but in the face of such a scene, the boy doesn't have a trace of fear. ”
"The sun sets, the night comes, but the whole vast mountain is like day. In the middle of the night, the boy awoke from his sleep and saw the woman standing in front of him and smiling at him. The boy was attracted by the woman's beauty and shook his head. ”
The woman said to the boy, "You are the first human to come here, and my mission has been accomplished." ”
"You're a fairy?" The young man was surprised by the woman's words and hurriedly asked.
However, instead of answering the boy's question, the woman continued: "Have you ever tasted tears? ”
The boy nodded.
"Tell me what it's like."
"It's salty."
Hearing this, the woman fell into a brief contemplation, and then murmured, "It turned out to be salty." The woman then looked at the sky and said to the boy, "I should go." The ancestor said that my tears can relieve my worries, so I was sent to fill this square stone pit here, waiting for someone who is destined to come here to tell me about it, hoping to relieve one party's sorrows. ”
After that, before the young man could ask more, the woman disappeared.
After that, the young man failed to find the woman in the vast mountain, so he returned to the spring of forgetfulness, holding the half-believing heart, the young man still held a handful of spring water and drank it, but the spring water accumulated by the woman's tears did not have a trace of saltiness, but a trace of sweetness.
The young man who drank the spring water fell asleep unconsciously, and when he woke up, he felt refreshed, his consciousness was clear, his heart was free of boredom, and his memory was full of beautiful and pleasant things.
The young man believed the woman's words and believed that this clear spring could relieve his worries. So he couldn't wait to go down the mountain, wanting to tell his master about it, and only after he came down the mountain did he realize that five years had passed in the world.
It turned out that the young man was originally a cultivator, a small Taoist priest of a Taoist temple. I went up the mountain that day because I made a bet that I would be able to climb the vast mountain and make it back alive.
At that time, due to the topography, no one set foot on the vast mountain. After the boy returned, he told his master what happened on the mountain, and his master originally planned to keep the matter a secret first, and then make plans after confirming the truth, but he never thought that the matter still leaked the news.
It turned out that a Taoist priest at the Taoist temple overheard the conversation between the young man and the master that night, and then went up the mountain overnight to seek spring water. This Taoist priest can be regarded as a fateful person, and finally found the location of the spring.
After he confirmed the facts of what the young man said, he immediately set off for the capital of the Xia Dynasty, and took the trouble to buy the relationship and ask to meet the emperor at that time.
When the emperor learned of this, he immediately sent people to investigate the truth and fiction. After drinking the spring water brought back by the minister, the emperor confirmed that the Taoist priest was right, and immediately ordered the blockade of the vast mountain, which was included in the royal property, and sent people to repair the road so that he could go to see the fairy spring in person.
A month later, the road was completed, and the emperor traveled to the vast mountain, saw the spring water, and personally wrote down the three words of the spring of forgetfulness.
Afterwards, the emperor found that the spring of forgetting worries was a stagnant water, not an inexhaustible source, so he ordered someone to fill up the spring and bring it back to the palace.
Originally, the emperor secretly blocked the news of this matter, and even the Taoist priest was permanently sealed. It's a pity that in the emperor's ancient years, the people gradually had remarks about this matter, and it became more and more intense.
In order to maintain his image, the emperor did not choose to kill a hundred methods, but issued a holy decree to refute the rumors, and unsealed the vast mountain, which is no longer exclusive to the royal family, and I hope that everyone who yearns for it can see the wonders of the vast mountain.
During his reign, the country was rich and the people were strong, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, and his prestige in the hearts of the people was extremely high. Therefore, the emperor's move quickly gained everyone's trust, and they all believed that the previous statement was just a rumor from someone with a heart.
Decades after the emperor's death, people in the world gradually became willing to believe in this beautiful legend except that the emperor took the spring water for himself. ”
