Chapter 10 Buzhou Mountain
The white moonlight fell like a milky way, sprinkled all over the earth, and reflected in the hundred thousand mountains.
And in these 100,000 mountains, the roars of terrifying beasts and the screams of sharp birds are endless. They occupy the mountains here as kings, and they vent their ferocity at will in the jungle of ten thousand mountains. It makes people stop listening to it, and they feel cold.
In the stone village, flames more than three meters high burned in the village, illuminating half of the village, and the rising temperature around the village hit the faces of the villagers.
But now Ye Chen can't feel any warmth, the village that was originally full of laughter and laughter now seems so quiet, the atmosphere is dull, and it looks very depressing.
Especially Ye Chen, his heart was tense, and he didn't dare to take a breath. The whole thing was as if I was choking, and it was extremely unnatural.
Quartz's cold, emotionless words still floated in his heart. In it, Ye Chen even felt a trace of killing intent flowing through.
"What's going on? Is she trying to kill me? I just looked at her a few times, and she's..."
Ye Chen's heart fluctuated in his heart, and he was extremely uncalm.
"Quartz, don't bully Xiao Yue'er. She's still that young. ”
At this time, a voice broke Ye Chen's thoughts. Ye Chen came back to his senses, looked up, and it was Aunt Wang who spoke.
I saw that Aunt Wang looked at the quartz blamedly, but more helplessly.
Ye Chen said strangely, and observed with doubts.
Xiao Yue'er, who was originally happy, had moist eyes at this time, a pair of big eyes filled with tears, a small face was aggrieved, and she looked at Quartz pitifully.
Seeing this, Ye Chen also had a little clue in his heart. It turned out that the quartz was not aimed at himself just now, but Xiao Yue'er. Seeing that it was not him, Ye Chen suddenly breathed a sigh of relief for some reason, and felt like he was living for the rest of his life after the catastrophe.
"Why did you have this kind of thought?" Ye Chen thought.
"Maybe it's because the quartz aura is too powerful, right? ”
Ye Chen thought about it, and looked at it, Quartz's entire beautiful face was covered with frost, and he felt that his eyes were emitting a terrible cold light, as if he hadn't heard Aunt Wang's words, and his eyes pierced Xiao Yue'er's eyes like the tip of a needle.
"Sister Quartz!"
Xiao Yue'er took a step back in fear. His eyes were full of tears, and he looked pitiful. looked at Quartz aggrievedly.
Everyone on the side was silent, and no one spoke. Because they know that even if they speak, it is useless. They didn't make any moves, although Quartz was terrible like this, they knew that Quartz would not really hurt Xiao Yue'er. Obviously, they are used to quartz and Xiao Yue'er. Although I can't bear it, there is no way to do it.
Ye Chen on the side had an indescribable feeling in his heart, looking at Chu Chu's poor Xiao Yue'er, Ye Chen felt like something was holding on to his heart. But he couldn't speak, after all, he was just an outsider.
This time was different from the situation of saving the little girl on the earth, after all, the situation was critical at that time, and I didn't even think about it, and my body moved involuntarily. In this situation, the other villagers didn't open their mouths, and they did something on their own, which would make things worse.
Big eyes, pink little face, delicate like a porcelain doll, cute is Xiao Yue'er's exclusive. For this kind of little girl, it should usually be the type that everyone loves. He couldn't figure out why quartz was doing this to Xiao Yue'er, there was definitely something going on in this, but Ye Chen didn't know.
Suddenly, there was a brief silence.
"Sister, you!"
Xiaoman couldn't help but speak first. It's just that before he finished speaking, Quartz's cold eyes fell on him, so frightened that he suddenly choked his mouth, his face was flushed, and the words came to his mouth, but he couldn't say it It felt very uncomfortable.
"Hey!"
The old man sitting next to him sighed slightly. Ye Chen felt that this sigh seemed to gather a thousand words. Helpless, guilty, but powerless.
"Alright, don't make a fuss!"
Then, the old man's hoarse voice came out, not loud but revealing a majesty.
Sure enough, after Quartz heard the old man's words, his frost-covered face gradually receded. Later, he gave Xiao Yue'er a warning look, meaning to say, don't come near me. Xiao Yue'er pouted aggrievedly.
"Grandpa!"
Xiao Yue'er stumbled aggrievedly and trotted all the way, and threw herself into the old man's arms. With tears in his eyes, he looked pitiful.
"Hehehe!"
The old man touched Xiao Yue'er's head and showed a kind smile, like a warm sun in winter, which made people feel very warm. It seems that all the hearts that are not at peace have been quieted.
"Grandpa!"
Xiao Yue'er flashed tears, threw herself into the old man's arms, and cautiously turned her head to look at the quartz. only to find that Quartz had already looked away, and he was not looking at her at all. The little face was aggrieved for a while, and it looked like she would cry immediately. It's pitiful.
Suddenly, as if remembering something, his big eyes flashed, as if he was looking for something. Suddenly, the tears disappeared, and the little face was happy, as if something had been discovered. Leaving the arms of the old man, running like in the crowd...
In this regard, the old man only showed a kind smile and watched Xiao Yue'er leave.
"Little brother, what's your name?"
"Huh?"
Ye Chen turned around, and the old man was looking at him with a smile. The eyes are sunken and the eyes are deep, and you can see the passage of time.
"That's right!"
Only then did everyone remember that they had forgotten to ask their names just now. At this time, the old man asked, and they came back to their senses.
"Old man, my name is Ye Chen. Ye Chen replied truthfully.
"Is your surname Ye?" the old man lowered his head and pondered for a while. Then he shook his head and found that he didn't know anyone surnamed Ye.
"I don't know what little brother Ye Chen, where his family is. The old man pondered for a moment and then asked, "Why did you come to this 100,000 mountain?" You must know that in these 100,000 mountains, there are many fierce birds and birds of prey. How did an ordinary person, a little brother, get to the depths of the mountains?"
Speaking of this, the old man's face suddenly changed, and his eyes pierced Ye Chen's heart.
Groov!
Ye Chen's heart was like being struck by lightning, and he didn't dare to take a breath. At this moment, Ye Chen seemed to feel as if he was transparent, and everything was hidden in the old man's eyes. There are no secrets.
The old man's eyes were like a terrifying beast, and Ye Chen was a little lamb, he only trembled in front of the terrifying beast, and he couldn't even raise the courage to escape.
The old man also noticed Ye Chen's abnormality, and immediately withdrew his eyes.
"Whew!"
Ye Chen exhaled loudly, feeling that he would be left behind in the aftermath. At that moment, Ye Chen seemed to have walked on the edge of death again, and now that he was relaxed, Ye Chen found that his back had been soaked with cold sweat.
The people around were just quietly waiting for Ye Chen to give them a solution, and they didn't feel too much.
"It seems that the old man is just targeting himself. Ye Chen thought.
Stop!
When he looked up, Ye Chen looked at the old man again, opened his mouth, and stopped talking.
It's not that Ye Chen doesn't want to say it. As for what happened just now, Ye Chen didn't have the slightest idea of blaming and hating the old man. After all, he was just an outsider, and it was natural for him to be wary of himself on the first day he came to this village. It's just that he doesn't know where to start, and although this world is very strange, he really wants to say that he has crossed over? That would be too unrealistic.
The old man also seemed to see Ye Chen's embarrassment, and asked slowly, "Is there anything unspeakable about Ye Chen's little brother?"
"Huh?"
Ye Chen was awakened by the old man's words, and then settled down and said: "It's not such an old man! I, I'm just, I don't know where to speak." ”
"Hehehe, then little brother, you can start from the beginning. To be honest, my old man has seen a lot of the world outside, but I really haven't seen you dressed like this. The old man laughed.
The old man's hoarse, withered voice always reassures people.
"Yes, Brother Ye Chen, you can tell me about the outside world. ”
Just when Ye Chen didn't know what to do, Xiao Man came to Ye Chen, hugged Ye Chen's shoulder like an acquaintance and said, "I haven't been out of this mountain forest a few times when I'm so old, even if I can't stay for a day every time I go out." ”
Xiao Man looked into the distance, and the wooden stick was full of yearning. Ye Chen's heart was touched, he didn't know what it was like, he just felt very unsettled in his heart.
Suddenly, Xiao Man turned his head and asked excitedly, "Brother Ye Chen, do you know the lion dance?"
"Lion dance?" Ye Chen hesitated.
He is no stranger to lion dance, which is used by the people in China during festivals or celebrations, especially in ancient times. It's just that in modern times, it has begun to become less and less, and everyone has long been accustomed to the bright lights and bustling cities. For the heavy culture and art left over from ancient China, they have begun to look at it as "novelty". I have long forgotten that this is the most common art in China. I remember that it seems to have a name called "Fenyi", and the specific Ye Chen is not too clear.
But what really made Ye Chen hesitate was, why did Xiaoman know about the lion dance? If it was on the earth, Ye Chen would not be too surprised, but now Ye Chen couldn't help but be surprised. After Ye Chen's exploration, he is definitely in another world now. But why did the lion dance, which only exists on earth, appear in Xiao Man's mouth? Is it a coincidence? Is there still any connection? Ye Chen was excited, as if he had found a bright light, a bright light on the way home.
He couldn't wait to ask Xiaoman, and he didn't know why Xiaoman, the person who asked the question. However, seeing Ye Chen's excited expression, he still spoke patiently for Ye Chen.
Ten minutes later, Ye Chen sat at the stone table in a depressed mood, looking very distressed.
It's like heaven has fallen into hell, I thought I had found the light, but when I walked there, I realized that it was an illusion. The history that Xiaoman talked about has no connection with what he wants to know at all, and the lion dance has been developed here for tens of thousands of years, and it has existed ten thousand years ago. In the history of China, the lion dance is only more than a thousand years old.
Ye Chen was suddenly disheartened.
Although the villagers didn't know what happened to Ye Chen, looking at his appearance, they also knew that Ye Chen was in a bad mood now.
"Xiaoman, did you say something that made Ye Chen unhappy?, or did you bully others?" Aunt Lin on the side took the lead in accusing Xiaoman.
"What?"
Xiao Man looked stunned when he heard Aunt Lin's words.
Hurriedly his face changed, and explained in a panic: "Aunt Lin, don't wronged me, you all watched it just now, I didn't do anything." ”
Aunt Lin suddenly glanced at Xiaoman and ignored him. She was just talking, they all saw what happened just now, and they knew that it had nothing to do with Xiaoman.
"Whew!"
Xiao Man breathed a heavy sigh of relief. He didn't care too much about what Aunt Lin thought, but what he really cared about was the murderous aura just now, which was unique to Xiao Yue'er. Just kidding, after so many times of abuse by Xiao Yue'er, this murderous aura has long been buried deep in Xiao Man's heart. That's why he was in such a hurry to explain just now, otherwise, Xiao Yue'er's little fist would fly over again
Feeling that Xiao Yue'er's murderous aura disappeared, Xiao Man turned around again and looked at Ye Chen.
"Brother Ye Chen, are you okay?" Xiao Man comforted Ye Chen.
"Brother Xiaoman, I'm fine, I just thought of something unhappy. ”
Just now, Ye Chen thought a lot, his parents, younger brothers, and friends. Many. At that moment, he felt so helpless and lost. A person, who came to this place inexplicably, has no relatives or friends, and doesn't know how to go back, his mood is really heavy. Perhaps, it will be a little better to say it!
He thought of that older sister of his, Li Mei.
"People, you can't live too hard, but when you encounter troubles, you can speak up, and when you say them, your heart will feel better. This sentence was told to Ye Chen by Li Mei. I remember that Ye Chen didn't care much about it at that time, and agreed that Li Mei was going to snatch the chicken feet in her hands, and she desperately protected the chicken feet in her hands, and finally Li Mei was beaten up, the reason was that Ye Chen didn't listen to her well. This is nothing, the most important thing is that the chicken feet were also confiscated, and Ye Chen spent that day in a loss.
"Huh!"
Thinking of this, Ye Chen couldn't help but chuckle.
The villagers looked at Ye Chen in disbelief. Ye Chen was sad for a while, and laughed again for a while, which was really unpredictable.
Ye Chen figured everything out, looked up at the night sky and slowly spoke, and began to tell everything he had on Earth, including how he came here. And the crowd listened so quietly...
After a long time, Ye Chen's words fell. Looking up at everyone, they all looked surprised, just like he had at the beginning.
However, when I said it, my mood changed. Ye Chen sighed.
"No, Zhoushan!" the old man said suddenly.
At the same time, everyone's eyes were focused on the old man because of these three words.
