Chapter 1 Dao Pastor
Vega.
I wish Zhishan, a generation of Weaver Girl souls to return.
Dayue stands among the 100,000 mountains, I don't know its huge, I don't know its height, the sea of clouds is swirling, but halfway up the mountain. The top of the mountain overlooks, there is a white ocean, and a golden sun hangs high on the sky, within reach.
The sun shines through the clouds like a pillar, shining on the earth, wrapped in gold.
Fairy birds frolicking in the clouds, wings and feathers are sprinkled with auspiciousness, fairy beasts are in the pillar in the sun, and the forest is wandering. The immortal void rides colorful auspicious clouds floating over thousands of mountains and rivers, dotting the slightly lonely blue.
Zhuzhi Mountain between the proud mountains, fairy sound and wonderful music, wash people's hearts and souls, fairy spirit worship, radiate 100,000 mountains and forests of Zhuzhi Mountain Range, dye the sea of clouds colorful, and the colorful bridge runs through the sky and the earth.
All beings bowed their heads reverently and thanked the mighty immortals.
Today, I wish the contemporary saint of Zhishan, once had an epiphany and felt the truth of heaven and earth, proved the road of weaving heaven, shed the mortal body, descended the immortal decree from the heavens, and achieved the god of weaving stars.
A generation of Weaver Girl souls have returned for many years and fallen into endless reincarnation, and Vega finally has another star god. The news grew wings and flew to every corner of Vega, and for a time, the whole world celebrated and jubilated.
An immortal decree descended from the sky, which means that the Zhuzhi Mountain Range will once again become a peerless immortal mansion that immortal cultivators yearn for, nourished by the immortal energy, drink the elixir of jade dew, stay away from the hustle and bustle of the mundane, and quietly pursue the mystery of heavenly principles.
All beings are looking forward to the fact that Vega, under the imbuing of fairy energy, will once again shine in the sea of stars and turn into a fairy land.
I have long forgotten that Vega has not received the immortal decree for many years, so that everyone wants to come to Zhu Zhishan to feel the legendary fairy spirit, and it will last for a long time, which is enough to smile at Jiuquan.
However, this universal joy has nothing to do with the bleak green planet in the east of the Milky Way, which is so green and vibrant, looking up at Vega, the green planet gives people six points of depression, three points of resentment, and one point of depression.
Zhu Zhishan has another Weaving Sky Fairy, and the news has been transmitted to the Muxing Mountain of Altair through the Shepherd Star Palace on Zhifa Star. Mu Xingshan announced this news to the world, whether it was an immortal cultivator or a mortal, there was a trace of unwillingness on his face.
When will Altair be able to produce another shepherd?
Maybe never will.
The story of a generation of shepherd cowherds and a generation of weaving fairies has been passed down to this day, and there have been countless versions.
Altair said it as the purest and most beautiful love story in the world, but Vega said it as a powerful teaching material that was different from mortals and immortals, and should not be stained with mud and dust, and the fairy court said that it was an ugly story of mortal greed, cunning, bad nature, and deception.
I don't know how many years have passed since that era, the Si people have passed away, and there are still a few people who know the truth of that year.
The love is as deep as the sea, and the white head is invincible.
The truth is no longer important to the Altair beings, after all, most of them are mortals. A person's life is a process of pursuit, some people pursue fame and fortune, some people pursue wealth, some people pursue vanity, and some people pursue enjoyment.
As a wave in the sea of people, running around and working hard for his own pursuit, who else would stubbornly follow the truth of a story so far away from him.
People's greatest wish is to pursue a happiness in the ordinary.
Immortals, too far away from them, just like the stars in the night, looking up, as if they can be touched, but in fact they are unattainable, far away.
Altair, an unknown herd in the world.
There is a hut at the foot of the hill, close to the mountains and rivers, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, the environment is quiet and elegant, so it is not leisurely.
Giggles......
In the crisp laughter of the child, this family gave birth to a boy, he did not cry, the sky loved to laugh, his eyes inherited the child's father, as charming as the sea of stars, big eyes blinked, melting people's hearts.
The birth of the child should have been happy, but the couple was apprehensive for a month.
The child's father often came to the small river not far in front of the house, sat on the stone bench by the river, smoked a low-quality hookah, and spit out white smoke, which filled the river, sometimes turning into a dragon tumbling on the water, sometimes turning into a flying fish jumping up and down.
When the smoke cleared, the child's father looked at his reflection in the river, his eyes flickering, and he was stunned. A naughty carp jumped out of the dragon gate to a height of one meter, and "poof" fell into the river before pulling his father back to his senses.
Looking up at the sky, there are a pair of eyes on the ordinary face that make all beings jealous, the eyes are flowing with brilliance, and the mouth is muttering, speaking an extraordinary human language.
Therefore, the child's mother often buries the child's father, who seems to have lost his mind, and often murmurs and babbles nonsense inexplicably. At this time, the father would grin, touch the back of his head, and not refute his mother's words, his teeth were so white that the moonlight flashed, and the stupid appearance made the child's mother laugh out loud.
"This place is so far away from that Taiyiyao, how can you see the starlight with the naked eye, the pig is a hundred times smarter than you. The child's mother looks ordinary, but the charm is excellent, and the child in her arms is giggling and laughing together, waving her feet, babbling, as if laughing at her father's stupidity, "Dongyang has come out, the time is not early, the child's father is not going to prepare the ingredients soon, and the guests are afraid that they are already on the way." ”
The child's father suddenly realized, slapped himself on the forehead, remembered that the boy in the family was full moon today, and after a month of worry, the child finally escaped the disaster of untimely death.
The child's father is a good herdsman in this wilderness, but he can subdue and raise the awesome tiger, although he can't get rich in the world, but he also lives a good life, although the hookah in his hand is inferior, but it is a luxury that other herdsmen dare not enjoy.
The family is not particularly wealthy, and the parents still decide to slaughter a tiger and put a full moon feast on their children. It is also the big herdsmen in the big city, the merchant families, or the big herdsmen who guard one side that they are so extravagant to kill the precious and rare tigers and hold a full moon banquet for the children.
The child's father took a big step and disappeared into the horizon in three steps, but after a while, he brought a big monster with a tiger-headed ox body, fangs like blades, and saliva flowing, it was the tiger with a vicious and hideous face, and this head was more than several times larger than an ordinary cow.
The tiger is not small, and the green cow that Taishang Laojun sat down is the emperor of the middle of the country. Immortal cultivators don't like beef, but they like this tiger meat. It is said that immortal cultivators walk on the road, care about the truth of the universe, and do not eat the fireworks of the world.
In fact, he is more picky than mortals, and he really doesn't eat the fireworks of the world, but the average person in the world can't afford to eat the food of his immortal cultivators.
In the white eyes of his friend, his father covered the tiger's eyes with a cloth, his hand was sealed, and he began to murmur again, not like a mortal's language. My father's friend was not surprised at this time, and he could afford to wait.
After a long time, he pulled out a black dagger from his sleeve, and the ghostly light flashed, and it didn't enter the tiger's heart.
There was no wail, the tiger did not show pain, and when it had exhausted its efforts, "poof!" fell to the ground, setting off a wave of dust, and the heavens and the earth trembled several times along with the house.
My father's friends were so frightened by the sudden movement that one accidentally fell to the ground one after another, looking at the embarrassed appearance of the friends around them, everyone looked at each other and laughed.
"Xiaodao, the Eight Wilderness belongs to your family, not to mention the etiquette, this full moon feast alone is not something that ordinary people can afford. Tigers can only be eaten by immortals flying in the sky. ”
"My brother has to eat tiger meat today, so aren't you also an immortal flying in the sky? This is just a matter of prejudiced concepts. ”
"The luckiest thing in this life is to know your family, and if you eat a bite of tiger meat, you can prolong your life for ten years. ”
"How can it be so exaggerated, brothers, don't listen to the rumors in the market. No matter how fierce the tiger is, it can't be called an immortal, so don't blackmail like those who do good things. What's more, what's so great about immortals. ”
The friends did not follow their father's last sentence, "What is so great about immortals", which seemed to touch their heartstrings, so they accused their father of having no faith and not fearing immortals.
Let the father spit on the ground, and then kneel on the ground and kowtow his head, begging for forgiveness from the immortals in the heavens, otherwise it will lead to unpredictable disasters.
The child's father smiled and said that if it was really that effective, he would not have allowed Altair's frequent disasters to ravage the pastures, and the demons who spit on the gods in the world should have died a long time ago.
What's more, how could the gods rain disasters on mortals, isn't the calamity caused by demons? Could it be that the gods are also the demons?
The friends realized that the child's father was not as honest as his face, and they were surprised on their faces, how could the child's father have a clever mouth and a lotus tongue, and spit out the words of rebellion.
The child's father saw that his friends were arguing more and more intensely, so he hurriedly changed the topic, no longer talked about the immortals, and started to talk about family affairs.
It is said that parents in the world are the most difficult to do, but they have to give birth. Sage Yun, "Unfilial piety has three nos, and the queen is great."
It's okay not to say it, but for a while, there were many wails, and it was difficult to raise children. When he was born, he was worried that he would die young, when he was a child, he was worried that he would disappear for no reason, and when he grew up, he was worried about when he would be able to start a family, achieve a great career, marry a beautiful girl, and glorify his ancestors.
Girls are even more heartbreaking for parents and fathers, and the shepherd's daughter is wilder than the daughter of the city, like the wind on the plain, free, and this wildness is beyond the control of ordinary men.
After all, raising children is an endless whimsit.
Annoyances naturally follow happy things, the moment the child is born, the inexplicable joy of becoming parents, babbling in childhood, the first sentence of "Daddy" and "Mom" makes people's hearts bloom, and when they grow up, the child has made meritorious deeds, proudly filled with wrinkles on the old face, and when people say how their children are now, laugh into a chrysanthemum.
The time to complain always passed quickly, and there were more and more guests, and the child's father handed over the kitchen to a friend and went to preside over the banquet process.
First of all, the "Four Directions of Heaven and Earth" ceremony is performed to convey the encouragement and encouragement of parents to their children, and at the same time, it also indicates that children will take it as their responsibility to do things above the world and under the Quartet.
Praise the recitation, the child's father cleaned his hands on the blank ancestral tablet incense, saluted, a call, the mother hugged the son, and the guests stood solemnly to welcome the arrival of the hero.
The child's father took down a piece of Tai Chi black fish jade pendant carved from the left side of the door frame and hung it on the child's neck, the child held the black fish in both hands, giggled, put it in his mouth and sucked, as if eating honey, sweet honey, pink round face flowering.
The guests all asked the child's name, and the child's father smiled at the guests, "My son's name, Daomu, means simply hope that he can inherit his father's business, be a shepherd, and live an ordinary and happy life." ”
"Good!" the guests applauded.
"Shepherds, the big are exquisite, the small ones are herding trees, herding livestock, the big ones are pasting the sky, pastures, the stars, and the people. The old man of my family, Changyun, and the decay of Muxing Mountain have made the younger generations forget what a shepherd is, and they have forgotten the pride of a shepherd.
Old man, I hope that in the future, the small pastor will regain the glory of my pastor and achieve a great pastor, instead of us being confined to the small pastor and enjoying ourselves. An old shepherd with gray hair stroked his white beard and said earnestly.
"Inherit the old man's good words. The child's father expressed his sincere gratitude.
"I also think that the little priest will grow into a great pastor, and then we can all be exposed to the light, and we will not be oppressed by the barbarian herdsmen. ”
"Hee-hee, hope, Xiaodao Mu, build a great cause in the future, marry a beautiful wife, and fulfill our childhood dream. ”
"Quack, hope, Xiao Dao Mu will marry the Weaver Girl for me in the future, destroy the majesty of the Weaver Star, and grow my Morning Glory Star Shepherd's face!"
"You two old boys, every little boy at the full moon banquet, you all said so, and now you don't know if the love story of the Cowherd and Weaver Girl is serious. ”
"Today's Vega Star has a weaving fairy, it's true!"
"However, the Weaver Girl is now two hundred and eighty years old, which is enough to be the grandmother of Xiaodao Mu. ”
"Hahaha......"
Parents in the laughter, to the child to identify relatives and friends, the four corners of the world, Xiaodao Mu blinked beautiful big eyes, twinkling stars, very happy, see those aunts are heartbroken, have to fight for the baby.
The parents couldn't cry or laugh, saying that the child's feelings were not shackled, and even laughed that everyone still wanted him to marry the Weaver Girl.
The child's father began to babble again, "buzzing" like a fly and annoying, and then as immersive as a bee, muttering words that no one could understand. Everyone thought that this was a local custom in the child's father's hometown, so it was inconvenient to ask.
The guests clasped their hands together and prayed to the immortals for their children, and the father stopped chattering, gave a speech of thanks, and the ceremony was completed, and the feast finally began.
The June sun is like the gossip furnace of Taishang Laojun, baking the earth hot, even the air is hot, the heat is steaming, visible to the naked eye, people are sweating all over when they move, sticky and upset.
In less than five months, the child's parents have grown much older, the mother has become more and more reticent, often lamenting, the father's face is terriblely dark, the hookah is smoking more and more fiercely, and the smell of smoke can be smelled on the other side of the river.
The water of the Qing River in front of the door has become shallow, and the place where the rapids used to run is now a shoal, and when the big buffalo used to feed the tigers at home walked across the other bank, the water did not even reach their calves, and they used to have to swim through.
The dead fish were scattered in the shallows, and the fishy smell emitted by the rotting dead fish permeated the yard, but fortunately, the strange floral fragrance in the yard blocked the invasion of the smell.
Every night, the dreary heat blows from the hills, and the wind blows the scent of grass into the air, drawing out the stars who love to hide in the night.
Whenever the silver sea flooded the Milky Way at night, the parents would take the little Taoist to the courtyard, insert a heavenly incense, and look at the starry sky.
Father will only smile at this time recently, but the laughter is getting weaker and weaker, the strong body is much more shriveled, the beautiful eyes are gone, these days, the mother often faints, the father is distressed, but there is no way.
The bad news came again and again, and the two friends couldn't bear the drought, and encountered the ancient beast on the way to migrate, and died with the herding animals.
But waiting for death is not the character of the shepherd, it is better to migrate in a big way to find a way to live, and friends come to persuade their parents, but for some reason they just don't follow, as if they are waiting for something, or clinging to something.
The following month.
At night, the sky was covered with black clouds, thunder rumbled and roared, thunder snakes rolled and fought in the black clouds, but there was not a single trace of it, the parents were full of anticipation at first, but after a few days, what they were looking forward to was delayed, and hope began to turn into despair.
During the day, the black clouds disappeared, and the sky was cloudless, like the upside-down sea.
Not a single drop of rain fell on the steaming earth, but the lightning could not stop in the air, dividing the sky into many sharp and dark blue modules, as if it was going to knock a few black holes in the sky before it could stop.
The ground outside the house was full of cracks, and in the cracks, there were only a few wetlands in the river in front of the door, but they could not necessarily squeeze out a few drops of water, and everywhere you could see the small fish that could not escape the doom of the river deep in the cracked river beach, they still maintained the posture of swimming, and opened their mouths as if they were trying to breathe, but they could no longer move freely in the river with light spirit.
After death, the rotten resentment turned into a thick fishy stench, and the abominable God was about to stink her, disgust her, and pollute her. The sky didn't seem to be blinded, regardless of the life or death of the creatures below.
My parents often looked at the world from green to yellow, orange and orange in a daze, the loess was flying on the arid land, the wind was whistling and raging, and the dust was suffocating.
The parents hadn't eaten for a month, but the little Daomu in his mother's arms was full of energy, his eyes were getting bigger and more beautiful, flashing with a strange light, like the brightest star in the sea of stars.
Fifteen days later.
A group of men and horses galloped wildly in the wind and sand, at first glance there were at least fifty or sixty people, and there was a large amount of food and clean water behind them, I was afraid that they were not merchants who had come to harvest grazing.
"Immortal Chief, a wooden house can be seen faintly in front of you, look at the wind and sand is getting bigger and bigger, I'm afraid I can't stop for a while, the brothers have been running around and tired for more than half a month. Do we rush through the wind and sand obstacles in front of us to take shelter in the house for a period of time, and then make plans when the wind and sand are too strong. ”
Wind and sand hunting blowing huge robes, through the gaps can be seen the angular muscles, this powerful burly man looks respectfully to the pot-bellied middle-aged man next to him, like a sheep.
The middle-aged man has a short neck, a fat head and big ears, his eyes are squinted into a slit, and his belly is round like a ball.
The middle-aged man has lived for most of his life, and he has never seen such a strange disaster, and he can't find the source of the disaster for a month and a half.
As the shepherd of the pasture, he could not escape the blame, and he was anxious to avoid the catastrophe from raging on a larger scale, how could he be in the mood to rest, and at this moment he wished that a day would be as long as a month.
Wow wow wow......
Before Mu Cang could open his mouth to refuse, the loud child's cry pierced the desolate and desperate sky, and it was transmitted to everyone's ears very clearly, making everyone look sideways.
"Rush through this obstacle!" Mu Cang no longer hesitated and shouted in a deep voice.
There was a hint of relief on the faces of the tired people, who had been running around for half a month without rest. Now there is finally a place for them to rest, and no matter how strong a person is, he can't stand half a month without sleep, and his mind and body are overworked.
Mu Cang rushed to the house where the sound came from, "Squeak!" Pushing open the door, he was startled by the scene in front of him, his round body stiffened in place, trembling.
Later, when people looked through the cracks, they were all silent and bowed deeply to the room
A man and a woman were lifeless, their hands resting in a strange way, their arms covered in knife marks, and a funnel attached to a hose that was right next to the baby's mouth.
Mu Cang stepped forward and touched it, their body temperature was still there, if Mu Cang and his group were a little faster, they might be able to save this pair of great parents. The child kept crying, as if he knew the departure of his parents, mourning, waving his unbound tender legs, complaining.
The big man beside Mu Cang couldn't help but sob, "This doll is so pitiful, it's worse than my background, woo woo......"
The corners of Mu Cang's eyes also slipped and crystalline, I don't know whether it was beads of sweat on his forehead, or tears, he untied the child's body and picked up the child, but the child struggled desperately and cried, I don't know where the ability came from, leaving a few blood marks on Mu Cang's face.
Mu Cang called a few women to take over, as if he was tired of crying before, he slowly quieted down, sucked the Taiji black fish stone sculpture hanging on his chest, and fell asleep.
"Huh?" the big man called for helpers to try to remove the two couples and put them in the coffin made temporarily, the two couples were like Mount Tai taking root in the ground, and it was useless for Mu Cang to come to help, and Mu Cang, who was a big herd, couldn't move half a bit, which was amazing.
"Pity the hearts of parents all over the world. Mu Cang couldn't help but sigh, and then saw him whisper a few words in the ears of the two couples, something strange happened, at the order of Mu Cang, when the big guys carried the bodies of the two couples again, the bodies of the two couples were as light as feathers.
The big guys seemed to understand something, and the emotional big guys burst into tears, but no one laughed at him for it. Everyone's mood became extremely heavy.
If the source of the calamity of this pasture is not removed, such tragedies will be staged every moment.
Mu Cang saw that there was only one word "Dao" on the ancestral tablet he enshrined, and he felt that the male owner might have the surname Dao, and he did not write the ancestral tablet, for fear that there was something difficult to hide, and at this moment he had decided to adopt this child.
"This child's surname will not change, I will let the child change his name to "Mu", first, Mu is my surname, and second, I hope that this child will achieve superself in the future......" Mu Cang muttered to himself in front of the ancestral tablet, so he set the child's name, "The child will be named Dao Mu ...... in the future"
Who knows, the child's real name is Daomu.
Is this just a coincidence?
