Text Chapter 14 That year, at the foot of Penglai Sanshen Mountain

The sun is about to set, and the afterglow is shining on the earth. At this time, smoke rose from Qingniu Village, and families were busy preparing dinner. Although the battle just now was too shocking for them, it was quickly forgotten by them. For the simple villagers, after working hard every day, they can eat something they want to eat when they return home, which is what they look forward to the most.

At the village chief's house, Zhang Shanhe was lying on the bed with a pale face, and it was estimated that it would be difficult to survive tonight, and in front of the bed stood several respected old people in the village who were leaning over to listen to his advice. After a while, Zhang Shanhe asked them all to go out first, and invited Yin Lei and the four of them in by the way.

"The four great immortals are here to solve the difficulties of our Qingniu Village today, and the old man has thanked him in advance. After saying that, he stood up and wanted to get out of bed to thank him.

Seeing this, Lu Qiao wanted to go over and help him, but Wu Xiaoying took the lead. "Sister Lu, you are tired today, and you have important things to do tomorrow. Just sit there and rest. ”

With Wu Xiaoying's support, Zhang Shanhe sat up with difficulty. "It seems that the time has come. Several immortals must not understand why the village has reached the point of life and death, and the old body does not agree to migrate. It seems that there are some things, and it's time for me to break it!" After speaking, Zhang Shanhe closed his eyes and sorted out his thoughts, and then began to talk slowly.

Four hundred years ago, a husband and wife crossed to the east, passing through this place, coinciding with the local encounter of a once-in-a-century locust plague, the locusts passed through the realm covering the sky and the sun, not a single inch of grass grows, the kind of grain on the ground is eaten by the locusts completely, the grain is not harvested, hunger everywhere is everywhere, and there is even a tragedy of cannibalism in some places. Seeing this situation, the husband and wife could not bear it, and decided to stay and eliminate the locust plague for the victims. After the locust plague, food is still scarce, the newly planted grain has not yet been harvested, the victims are still hungry, and orphans who have lost their parents in this locust plague can be seen everywhere. The couple is definitely a good person to the end, not only to give some easy and high-yield plant seeds to the victims to cultivate, but also to teach the victims some farming skills, but also to adopt those homeless orphans, the couple has no children under their knees, so they treat those children as their own, gradually, the couple became the backbone of the victims, and their lives began to slowly change. In this way, Qingniu Village came into being, and the husband of the husband and wife was the first village chief of Qingniu Village-Zhang Chongming, and his wife Lin Lan became the teacher in the village. Everyone was grateful to the husband and wife for their reinvention and changed their surnames to Zhang. Since then, the husband and wife have begun to live this life of working at sunrise and resting at sunset. But this comfortable and peaceful life didn't last long, a group of cultivators who came from the east found Qingniu Village, no one knew where they came from this trip, only that after talking with the husband and wife, the two sides fought. It has been handed down from the ancestors that the two sides fought from the earth to the sky, and then killed from the sky back to the earth, just like the gods in the sky flew to the sky, causing the rivers to flow backwards and the sky to fall to the ground. Fortunately, this kind of fight only lasted for one day and one night, only to see that Zhang Chongming came back with an injury, but his wife Lin Lan was nowhere to be seen, when the villagers asked about Lin Lan's whereabouts, but Zhang Chongming kept silent. A few days later, Zhang Chongming was too injured and drove west. Before he died, he handed over a few tokens to the next village chief, and told him to stay here and wait for Lin Lan to return, and after he returned to the sky, the things left behind should not be revealed, otherwise it would cause a big disaster.

And after that incident, Qingniu Village returned to calm again. I don't know if Qingniu Village couldn't escape the fate of many disasters and disasters, but one day seventeen years ago, the back mountain was suddenly shrouded in a black fog floating from the sky. When the black fog dissipated, all the flowers and trees in the back mountain died, and all the cattle and sheep grazing in the mountains disappeared. After that, there was no more peace in Qingniu Village, and the black-robed people went down the mountain every month to ask for food, and every year they needed the village to offer young women as tribute. During this period, someone also organized the dead to go up the mountain to destroy the demon, and the team was also huge at that time. But on the first day, he set off with great ambition, and the next day he became a headless corpse, and he was made into a human stick and stuck in the village to show deterrence. Since then, no one has dared to resist. Seeing that the people in the village were panicking, and the girls were sent to a dead end one by one through their own hands, Zhang Shanhe felt very uncomfortable. Every night, Zhang Shanhe recalled the desperate cries of those female babies, and the sad scenes of being forced to separate flesh and blood, he felt that he should go to hell, no, he didn't even have the qualifications to go to hell. When it comes to migration, he has also wavered, but on the one hand, the ancestral teachings left by his ancestors cannot be violated, and on the other hand, it is related to the life and death of the whole village, and he does not know what to do. Until today, he finally made a choice.

Zhang Shanhe got out of bed with difficulty, and walked out of the bedroom with a trembling step by step, while Wu Xiaoying was supporting him. When he returned to the bedroom, he had an extra package made of cowhide in his hand. "This is the relics of Zhang Chongming's ancestors, which have been passed down from generation to generation in our Qingniu Village, and according to traditional practice, these relics and secret history can only be passed on to the next village head. Originally, these things should have been passed on to the iron head, but the old body has figured it out, these things must have a head, it is better for the old body to be this guilty person. Tonight, Tietou will take the whole village to migrate, hoping to recuperate elsewhere and spread its branches. ”

Yin Lei also felt a little melancholy after listening to the secret history of Qingniu Village, these simple villagers were burdened with too much bitterness and helplessness, and Sakura's eyes were wet after listening to it. "What are your plans, Mr. Zhang?" asked Yin Lei.

"The old body knows his own business, and he can finally get a good night's sleep after closing his eyes tonight. I hope that when I see my ancestors and ancestors, I will spare my little old man. After speaking, he directly handed the package in his hand to Yin Lei. "If the four great immortals have the opportunity to meet Old Ancestor Lin, or her descendants, please help tell me that at the foot of Penglai Fangcun Mountain, the children of Qingniu Village are not sorry for her. Yin Lei's mood was a little heavy, and after taking the package with both hands, he nodded solemnly to Zhang Shanhe.

Coming out of Zhang Shanhe's house, the four of them walked quickly back to the villager's house where they were staying, and then closed all the doors and windows.

"I feel that the things in here must not be simple, should you open it and take a look?" Yin Lei sought everyone's opinions.

"Open it. I think everybody wants to see what's inside. ”

When Yin Lei lifted the layer of cowhide, the four of them involuntarily took a breath!!
