Chapter 12: The Legend of the Foggy Hidden Mountain

After waiting for two more days, the rain was a little lighter, so the car was loaded, and the two big cars headed for my aunt's house.

The car in front is Leng Lie and the three children, as well as the housekeeper Chunze, and the herb car in the back.

Although there was a light rain along the way, Ning Yue still raised the curtain high, and faintly there was rain floating in, and she didn't care about it. I just pestered my father and kept asking, where is this? What is the name of this mountain? What is the name of that river? Is there any beautiful legend?

Leng Lie didn't have anything else to do, so he slowly told the three children about the names of places, the rivers and rivers, mountains and ridges here, and the folk legends. Others only treat it as a story, but Ning Yue is fascinated by it.

"There is a mountain here, called Wuyin Mountain, and I heard that the fog is thick all year round, and if you are not careful, you will get lost in the mountain. Originally, this mountain was not called that, but it was just a beautiful mountain. But legend has it that one year, there was a young lady who fell in love with a poor scholar, and because her family did not agree to their marriage, the young lady fled to the mountains to avoid the marriage arranged for her by her parents, and waited for the poor scholar who went to Beijing to take the exam to come back and marry her. The family has been sending people up the mountain to look for her, but she has not been seen several times. Slowly, there will be heavy fog on the mountain, surrounding the whole mountain, and no one dares to go up the mountain again, and if you go up the mountain, you will not find the way back. ”

Leng Lie said slowly: "After a few more years, the poor scholar really came back with fame, and when he heard about the young lady, he went up the mountain alone. The first time he was lost in the mountain, and it took several days for everyone to find him at the foot of the mountain. He was very emaciated, saying that he was trapped in the fog, without eating or drinking, just like a fly without a head, he kept walking, kept walking, and he didn't know how to get out. After a few days, when he recovered, he brought some food, ropes, and other things up the mountain, saying that he would go to the young lady. He said that in the fog, he faintly heard a woman's cry, and the voice seemed to be that of the young lady. He had wondered if the young lady had died on the mountain, and that the cry was the ghost cry after her death. Despite this, he also has to go up the mountain, at least to find her body back, and bury her well, so that she will not be a lonely ghost again, and he will not let them fall in love with each other. Everyone couldn't stop him, and he went up the mountain again. After that, there was no news of him for a long time. Everyone suspected that the scholar had died on the mountain, and like the young lady who had died hiding on the mountain, he would never be able to go down the mountain again. ”

Hearing this, Ning Yue couldn't help but sniffle and said with tears in her eyes: "This story is too sad, it's not good!

Leng Lie smiled: "I haven't finished yet!

"Oh, is there a future?Will the two of them have a good result?Will they be together?Aren't they both ghosts?" Ning Yue took Leng Lie's hand and asked urgently.

"Yue'er, don't worry, listen to me slowly!" Leng Lie said with a smile.

"Okay, I'm not in a hurry, Daddy continues. Ning Yue let go of her hand and sat up straight.

Later, just when everyone thought that this incident ended in tragedy, one day, the fog on the mountain suddenly dissipated, and it was completely scattered, and you could see the lush trees and strange rocks on the mountain. They saw a red glow staining half of the mountain, and then they saw an auspicious cloud rise, dragging a man and a woman, slowly rising to the sky, and disappearing. The pair of men and women are scholars and young ladies who have not been seen for a long time, they have interlocked their fingers and leaned on each other. Everyone said that they became immortals and went to heaven. ”

"Great, they rode the auspicious clouds and slowly ascended to the sky. Ning Yue stretched out her hand made of small jade, slowly lifted it up, and looked out the window. "If only I could be like them!"

"Yue'er, that's a legend, don't take it seriously. Leng Lie smiled. "This is not the end of the story, do you want to listen to it?"

Only then did Ning Yue withdraw her gaze from the sky and nodded.

After the scholar and the young lady left, the mountain was surrounded by heavy fog again, and it returned to its original appearance. Everyone has a legend that there is a secret in it, and ordinary people are not allowed to trespass, so they are protected by a heavy fog. Some people also say that there are demons and monsters that are crushed on the mountain. There are also people who say that there is too much grievance, so the yin qi is heavy, and the fog is heavy all year round. ”

"Hissβ€”β€”!" Ning Yue couldn't help but clasp her arms around her shoulders, and her body trembled. "The story is bad again. ”

Leng Lie smiled: "So it's called a legend, there are many theories, but the mountain is a little different, otherwise it won't be foggy and will not disperse all year round." ”

"Oh!" Ning Yue responded, although she was a little afraid, she also wanted to go up the mountain to see for herself.

Wu thought to himself: 'Surrounded by mist, the mountains are also like dreams! Although they are not made of clouds in the sky, they are made of fog in the world, and they have a different taste!'

After another day, I arrived at my aunt's town, and the sun was scorching and a little hot.

This line of work is also sad, first it was a damp and cold rainy day, and then it was basking under the sun.

According to Ningyue's words, it is called: A worm just began to soak in the water, and it was all soaked and floated, and finally someone fished out the water bowl and put it under the sun to dry, and the insects became dry.

"Don't complain, you insisted on coming along, and you shouldn't be the last thing you should say. Leng Lie smiled.

Ning Yue pursed her lips, but finally didn't say anything. Dad is not bad, he insisted on running out, and if he was bumpy on the road, he didn't say anything else.

I followed my father into my aunt's house - the Red Mansion is also a big mansion, and it is very magnificent. My aunt's family came out, and everyone stepped forward to salute, and let them enter the lobby for another round of greetings, and then there were things like feasting and drinking.

The children didn't like this, so they found their favorite playmates and ran out of the lobby.

Ning Yue was strange, why didn't these little cousins of my aunt's family like to play with her, but they looked for her brother and Qianjie to talk and laugh!

Sitting in the study with my eldest cousin, I heard that this study was specially prepared for him by my uncle. A large room with all kinds of books in it, many of which Ning Yue had never even heard.

At first, she was attracted by books, Ning Yue was taught by her mother since she was a child, and she was quite interested in poetry and books. But children have a lot of playfulness, especially when they hear the cousins outside the window pulling Junyan and Qianjie to play and play, and the laughter and laughter come from, they can't sit still.

I wanted to take my eldest cousin to play with him, but he shook his head and said, "That's a game played by a girl, how can a man do it." No, no!"

In a word, Ning Yue was annoyed.

I thought to myself, 'What's the matter, girls' games?' they're playing pitcher now. What does he mean by that? Does it mean that my brother and Qianjie are not men anymore?"

"Hmph!" Bai glanced at him, and said unceremoniously: "I'm a girl's family, it's okay to play girls' games! You're a man, hold the book and nibble on it yourself! I'm not going to accompany you, I'm going to play." With that, he shook his long hair, turned around and went out.

Seeing Ning Yue go out, the eldest cousin was full of disdain, and said softly: "I thought you were a different girl, but it turned out to be a vulgar thing!"
