Chapter 197: Rumors

Mu Zhaoling raised his head and observed the canopy of the large banyan tree.

It's really very big, it should be close to 400 years old.

There are not many dead branches and leaves under the tree, and I think it is usually taken care of.

"How long has this mountain god lived?"

"Four hundred and twenty-seven years. "Light Feather gives a clear number.

"Eh......" Mu Zhaoling tilted his head sideways and sold cute, "It's so big....... someone must have planted it, who is it?"

"I don't know~ Maybe it's our ancestors. ”

"Okay......" he looked disappointed, and then continued, "Then why call it the mountain god?"

"Hehehe......" Light Feather Clothes chuckled, "Because, according to my grandfather's grandfather, it was my great-grandfather, when he was young, he was very naughty, once he walked into the mountain alone to play, but was accidentally bitten by a poisonous snake, and after being poisoned, he wanted to go down the mountain for help, but when he walked here, he had a poisonous attack and fell to the ground and couldn't move." ”

It was at this moment that he heard the big banyan tree speak. ”

"What are you doing lying here, little one. ”

"Grandfather heard strange noises, but he was so weak that it was difficult for him to breathe, let alone talk to people. But that's it, he still tried to make a cry for help. ”

"Help... Help ......"

After Grandfather Gao finished saying this sentence with all his might, his consciousness was completely blurred. ”

In the midst of his confusion, something very rough and twig-like seemed to lift him up and feed him something like spring water. ”

That same night, his family, fearing for his safety, called the rest of the village, who were about to go into the mountain to look for him with torches, but found him lying on a large rock at the foot of the mountain, and asleep. ”

"It is said that when they found my great-grandfather, he had a very nice smell of fruit all over his body. ”

After saying the story, Kazukata looked at everyone and blinked, as if she was expecting the thoughts of the listener.

This story has long been familiar to the locals, and it was only the first time Mu Zhaoling heard it.

He raised his eyebrows, "Why is it a big banyan tree? I haven't seen it with my own eyes, maybe it's a monster in the mountain that has become a spirit?"

That seems to make sense.

"Because my great-grandfather was not the only one who encountered the big banyan tree. ”

Liu Yin seemed to remember something, and a flash of inspiration, "Oh! I remember, it seems that I also encountered very strange things when I was young. ”

"That day I got lost in the mountains, and I couldn't go back, but then a kind man in a mask kept showing me the way, and wherever I went, he pointed me until I got to the door. ”

"When I looked at him again, he was gone. ”

Qing Yushang was a little distrustful of her daughter, "Hey, I also remember this incident, I also personally changed Nan Nan's diapers that night." ”

After speaking, they also looked at each other with contemptuous eyes.

The implication is that this happened just a few years ago, and there is no 'childhood' at all.

Liu Yin felt this malicious gaze, her back stiffened a lot all of a sudden, and an embarrassed but polite smile appeared on her face, just pretend to be stupid at this time......

Aunt Lin, who had been standing silently behind, also accosted, "Is it true? I always thought you were making it up funny for the sake of your indifferent face." ”

Liu Yin's face is unhappy now, but this is happy for the other two women.

"Hahaha~"

"It's true. She barely kept a serious face, "He still accosted me." ”

Light Feather said: "What are you talking about?"

"He said, 'Have you eaten?'. ”

"And how did you answer?"

"I said, 'Not yet'. ”

After a pause, I thought that Liu Yin still had something to say, but it didn't follow.

Light Yushang trembled her long hair slightly, this costume beauty looked even more beautiful than a real beautiful girl.

"What's next?"

"It's gone. ”

"Gone?"

Liu Yin nodded seriously, "It's gone." ”

Light Yushang clasped her hands to her chest, and the expression on her face was like looking at the 'daughter who was not angry', a little resentful, but also a lot of love.

stared at his daughter so much that he let her go.

"Heh~" Wan Er smiled, she showed the aura of a mature big sister, "Modern young people basically don't believe in gods and Buddhas. ”

"I grew up in this mountain since I was a child, and I can say that I grew up with the gift of the mountain...... People who live in the mountains are like this, grateful to the mountains, it doesn't matter if there is really a mountain god, I just hope that there can be such a thing, and some emotions can be sustened. ”

"Meaning is greater than form, truth is not important. That's probably it. ”

"Does the gift of the mountain say food?" Those words Mu Zhaoling went in and out of the left ear and the right ear, and he was now enriching his own image setting.

"Food, and usefulness, like these trees, can be used as wood, or as firewood. "I'd like to say something more complicated, but ...... She felt that people here should not be able to understand something too obscure.

At this time, the night had quietly fallen, and although there was still some light in the sky, it could not last long.

"It's getting dark, let's go home. ”

This is the end of the matter about the 'mountain god' big banyan tree.

After dinner, Mu Zhaoling sat alone on the stone steps in a certain garden.

I have to say that the night sky in the mountains is really vast and beautiful, especially when the night is clear.

The stars were shining brightly on the night cloth, the sky was like a dome, with stars overhead, and the sky farther away converged into the horizon, stretching to the point where it could not be seen.

I stayed quietly for a long time.

"Kitten. ”

The silence was broken by the voice of the light feather dress, and she placed a plate of watermelons in her hand on the stone steps, and sat down next to her.

There was something teasing in his tone, "You can't really be a cat, are you?"

Mu Zhaoling is now wearing a hood again, wearing a black black cat suit, mixed in the night, ordinary people may not be able to find him if they don't pay attention to it.

It's a joke to say he's a cat, but it's hard to say 'black cat spirit'.

"Oh, did you find out that I was a black cat seme?"

Under the darkness, there was a little more mystery in his clear eyes, and it seemed that a little night was infected with them.

Like a drop of water falling into an ethereal and mirror-like lake, Light Feather's heart rippled slightly.

What a clear soul it takes to have such eyes.

She stretched out her left hand, "Come, give me the paws." ”

Mu Zhaoling stared at it in a daze for a few seconds, thinking about how to respond.

He knows very well how lethal his skin is, so he needs to think more comprehensively when facing the abnormal favorability of others.

He doesn't want to be flirtatious.

The four fingers were retracted into the palm of the hand, like a cat's claw, and then gently placed on the palm of the other's hand.

"So?"

At that moment, the sweetness of Light Feather's heart blossomed.

"Ah~ how can you be so cute. "Fall into bliss.

Mu Zhaoling's face turned cold, and he retracted his hand, wanting to say something vicious, but no matter what, he couldn't combine suitable words.

With a straight face, "What the hell do you want to do?"

His instincts told him that he might be faced with very difficult questions to answer next.

Unlike when he first came to this world, although they are all in the form of Zhengtai, and their appearance has not changed in the slightest, but at the level of 'distorted world', it is obviously weaker now than it was then.

There is a high chance that you will ask about things like 'origin', 'origin', 'name', and so on.

And the truth was exactly what he had guessed.

After being happy for a while, Light Feather suddenly straightened up, staring straight at the person in front of her with sharp eyes.

"Cat, can you tell me where you came from?"
