I was about to go out with an umbrella, but was stopped by the old monk: "Girl, the road is slippery on a rainy day, let Fu'er send you down the mountain." ”

I stood in the rain with the handle of my umbrella in my hand and said, "No need. I walked away without looking back, the old monk's burning eyes felt pressure behind me, and I walked out a hundred steps away and didn't dare to look back, for fear that he would ask me where I was going, but who knew that I could not hide from the first fifteenth day of the new year.

As soon as I left the temple, I saw small purple-blue flowers intermittently appearing under my feet -- this is forget-me-not! I wonder how this flower can grow in such a place? I picked one up, and I carefully squatted down to look at the flowers soaked in the rain, and gradually began to fade the purple blue, and when I took it in my hand, the small flowers had turned white, and they were originally drawn on paper! Although the painting was very delicate and delicate, it was ...... Who is so boring! I was led to the side path by forget-me-not one after another, and suddenly I heard a man talking.

"This beautiful but hard-brained sister, are you going to go to Rhino Mountain alone?" I looked back, the flower whisk leaned against the rock wall of the green mountain, let the rain hit the body ragingly, but was unmoved, the soaked green shirt was half attached to his fair skin, under the slightly cold face, the lip flap of Dan Fan was even more enchanting, Rao was fading back to the form of a man, and he couldn't get rid of his daughter's bones, was it really because of Su Li?

In a trance, I wondered if the child in front of me was really the same person from 10,000 years ago? Why did these 10,000 years rush by like a surging river, but there was no trace left on him, and the young man in front of him was still so untainted and unworldly, which really made people a little jealous.

I hated this kind of cleverness that was unwilling to restrain my edge, I glanced at me and replied, "How do you know that I am going to Rhino Mountain? ”

"Sister, aren't you a dead man? After eating the eyes of Hades Jueye, you can not grow old or die, you are not sick or sick, why do you have to wait for this umbrella in the temple to hide from the rain? Are you worried about that little fox, you must see me come back, so that she has come down the mountain safely, and you didn't choose to go down the mountain by yourself to see what is going on, just because you have another place to go - Su Li's bones were buried by me and my father and mother at that time, so you really don't want to take me there?"

"You?......"

Before I could finish speaking, he grabbed me in one step, thinking that he was going to take advantage of the umbrella, but I didn't expect him to snatch the umbrella and throw it away...... and unceremoniously hooked up with me: "Sister, although you are a dead person, don't make it like an old dead, everyone is young, what kind of umbrella do you use." "This boy, I want to tear his mouth apart.

So he and I braved the boundless smoke and rain, step by step muddy to the rhinoceros mountain, the grand scene of 10,000 years ago was completely gone, and it really responded to the vicissitudes of the sea, although it was not razed to the ground, but it also became a barren mountain, and the mud and sand rolled down the mountain road, but we had to go upstream.

Perhaps those sharp eyes saw my confusion, he explained: "Actually, the rhinoceros mountain did not slowly become like this in these 10,000 years, since Su Li's death, this mountain has gradually panicked, not a single inch of grass grows, planting nothing to bear fruit, the villagers of Hongliu Village found that they could not rely on the mountain to eat, so they migrated to other places, so from the rhinoceros mountain down a radius of 100 miles, there is no trace of life." ”

I grabbed a handful of mud and sand: "This soil is sparse loess, and there is a lot of sand and gravel mixed in the middle, which is not suitable for cultivation at all!" I threw away the mud and sand in my hand, rubbed it on his sleeve, and continued, "So I suspect that it was not Su Li's death that made Rhino Mountain like this, but when she was alive, it made Rhino Mountain become like that, becoming a side of water and soil, and raising a side of people." ”

He looked at the mountain wistfully: "Anyway, she is the spiritual root of Rhino Mountain, and this thing is right." After speaking, he rolled up his sleeves to wipe the rain that fell from the corners of his eyes, and stained all the mud and sand on his face.

I finally went up to the mountain, but found that this place was unrecognizable, I looked at Hua Fu's expression a little dazed, and asked, "Is it impossible to find a place?" He replied: "At that time, my father and mother and I had to be instructed by the master to sincerely repent, so we went to bury the snake bones, and we were afraid that the tomb would be shabby, and it would be eroded by the wind and rain, and it would affect the blessings of future generations, so we specially built a snake bone with stone bricks...... But this tomb is very hidden, and I blame it on when I was young, and although I went there, I just forgot how to get there. After saying that, I scratched my head vigorously, but I couldn't remember.

"The mage you are talking about is the old monk of Xiuyuan, right! Listen to what you mean, the huge rhinoceros mountain, we have to find it inch by inch?" I didn't expect this kid to be so eye-catching, and immediately clenched his fists in front of me and said: "If I come alone, forget it, how can I use this stupid method when I come with my sister? It's just an insult to my sister's cleverness and wit." "After watching his performance, I finally believe that he really lived for 10,000 years!

In order to give this kid some color, I still have to come up with this method! But speaking of this matter, it is not without a place to start - building a tomb, burying snake bones, and not being blown by the rain and wind, but also hidden, can not be found at will to destroy feng shui, but also to leave a little clue to his own people, but this kid was too young at that time, even if there were any clues, he didn't remember, but the clue should not be easy to erase, even if it is like the current mudslide...... So what exactly is it?

"Has my sister figured it out?"

I gave him a blank look: "Was it like the heavy rain when the tomb was built and buried at that time?"

He shook his head: "No, I remember very well at the time, the mage was also present when Su Li entered the retreat, and he also took out the painting he once painted for Su Li, if it rains, the painting will not be destroyed." ”

"What painting?" I asked urgently.

"It's the picture of the green snake around the bamboo hanging in the wing, it's just very strange, there is no green snake on the painting I saw when I entered the collection, only the bleak yellow bamboo and the bamboo shoots that just reached the ankles, whether it was added by the mage is unknown. ”

I was surprised: "Don't you know what happened before?"

He smiled mischievously, "Don't say that, I was a kid at the time, and when I grew up, the mage kept silent about me, and if I knew everything, I still need to eavesdrop on your conversation outside the door?"

This kid is honest, but he will not admit himself, so the painting is indeed a little strange, it is exactly the same as the illusion I saw when I entered the temple, this is not a thing that can be resorted to pen and paper, how can the old monk's painting skills be so good? and it is completely different from the ink style of Huang Zhu, it is like sealing the snake in the ...... The old monk said that he sealed Su Li's soul in the painting, and the green snake was transformed by Su Li himself!

"What else do you know, tell me about it. ”

"Sister, I don't know more than you...... But I still know a little bit. He winked at me as he spoke, "Actually, I also listened to the villagers at that time, 10,000 years ago, the situation was like this, the monk went up this rhinoceros mountain and found Hong Zimo, but he followed Su Li's suggestion, and did not inform the villagers of the news, and has been taking care of Hong Zimo with Su Li, what is this specific situation, how the two get along, how to fall in love over time, and how to break up, why the mage can't become a Buddha, I'm afraid only they know, but sister, you know that the rumors have always been... You are welcome......

So the rumors I heard from the villagers were like this: the snake demon in order to cultivate into an immortal, to constantly suck the essence of men, so when I saw Hong Zimo working in the field, he had a bad heart, turned into a beautiful woman and seduced him, Hong Zimo lost consciousness and was taken down by the snake demon, and then the mage came and first promised the villagers to go to the mountain to find people, but after going up the mountain, it was not surprising that the snake demon was also confused, but in the end, the Buddha came forward and punished the demon, and the mage woke up, in order to make up for the merits, so the snake demon was subdued, and she was buried with my parents, but the mage had already committed the color precepts, and it was difficult to collect the water, so the Buddha failed to let him become a Buddha。 ”

"However, didn't the old monk lie to you that the snake was a mountain god? If you knew that she was a monster from the beginning, how could you be willing to bury this demon?"

"It's all said that this is a rumor, sister, you are still so serious, hahahaha......" After laughing, in fact, I can see how much cold words this child has suffered, and the so-called rumors were all cold knives and arrows from the villagers to him. Seeing him laughing out loud and untouched, I felt a little distressed.

But now things can be sorted out, and the story that the old monk didn't hear is now gradually complete: the old monk found out that Su Li was a snake demon, and regarded getting rid of this demon as the last of the three thousand merits, thinking that after getting rid of him, it would be complete, but in fact, it was not...... Although he was sincere to Su Li, so in the end, for his own future, he subdued the snake demon Su Li regardless of 3721, but all he received was Su Li's soul, so it was inferred that he still had no feelings, and in the end he should have let her live, so he left her body on the mountain, and unfortunately ran into the Liu family again, and brought her body back to eat it......

It's just that I don't understand one thing in my head: since the old monk has taken Su Li's soul, what is the use of leaving her body? As a result, when the tragedy happens, it is irreparable, and in the end she can only comfort her soul in the sky with a grave.

At this time, I have unconsciously climbed to the top of the mountain, except for a few boulders, there is still nothing bare, Hua Fu spread his hands and said: "This has already reached the top of the mountain, sister still has no choice?" I shook my head: "No, it is better to wait for the rain to stop, maybe there will be a turnaround." ”

"Why?"

"Because, you also said that it didn't rain at that time, maybe after the rain is clear, you can think of electricity again when you see this, although this place is no longer what it used to be, but there are always some things that can't be erased. "Okay, call it a day!" the kid didn't have a heart.

I glanced at him and was about to return a long way, but I didn't expect to be stopped by him: "Sister, don't worry, I vaguely remember that there was a shortcut in the opposite direction, and I often came up the mountain to play when I was a child." ”

I opened his hand: "I know that if you don't say it earlier, let me wade through the muddy waters for such a long time! Then he went down the mountain in reverse.

"Oh, sister, do the old people like to bring their own explanations when they speak...... We went up the mountain to find something, not to mention that we don't know if this shortcut is there, even if we know it clearly, we can't go!"

I raised one hand and stroked the back of his head: "The guy is good, he has grown with me for half a day." And he gave me a glaring look.

This shortcut was already steep, and in the rain, it was even more difficult to walk, but I only cared about fighting with him, and I suddenly slipped and fell without paying attention to my feet: "Oops!" My ass was about to break for me, and I sat on the ground for a long time and couldn't get up, clinging to the rock wall next to me, for fear of being washed away by the water flowing down from the mountain.

He was fine, and came to help me unhurriedly, and his eyes were about to roll to the sky: "You are always saving people some snacks! How about buying a crutch for your old man when you go back?"

"Don't talk about the cool words, help me up!" After saying that, I inadvertently glanced at the rock wall next to me, and suddenly froze, and the flower whisk pulled me forward again: "What's the matter, it's broken? Can't move at all? You should stand up first!"

I looked at him in horror and pointed to a stone carving on the rock wall with my fingertips - it was a small flower, although it had no color, but judging by its shape, it was forget-me-not! It was exactly the same as his previous technique! Seeing that his eyes were a little glazed, I asked, "Did you draw this?"

To my surprise, he shook his head firmly: "This...... It reminds me that on the day of the retreat, the master told my father and mother the way to cure my illness, but my father and mother had never seen forget-me-not grass in her life, so the master personally drew a pattern on the stone wall, which was his handwriting back then. Later, my father and mother died in order to find this herb for me, and in order to mourn them, I would imitate the mage from time to time to draw this flower, but this one was really not painted by me. ”

"I understand, you mean that the mage drew such a pattern at the time and place when Su Li was in the middle of the world, and showed it to your parents, right?"

"That's right. ”

"So this is where Su Li is buried—where the grave of her bones is!" I could barely hide my excitement and slapped the stone wall with all my might!
