015 Fishing Festival

After walking through a kilometer of secret passage, the three of them came to a new world.

The mountains and forests in front of you are lush and green, full of birds and flowers, and it is Mount Emei before it was destroyed.

Without a doubt, this is the real secret place.

The secret realm is like another time and space, and even the time is different from the outside.

At this time, it was about six or seven o'clock in the morning, the sun was soft, and the distant mountains were still covered with white fog.

The three of them felt a flower in front of them, as if they had experienced a spatial teleportation, and stood at the door of a temple.

This temple is the same ruined temple they first entered.

The difference is that the temple in the morning breeze is not broken at all, and the incense is very prosperous.

At the entrance of the temple, there is also a signboard, and three words are written on the dragon and the phoenix: Yuanfa Temple.

As soon as the three of them walked in, they heard the old voice chanting a Buddha horn: "Amitabha, good, good." If there is a fate, you can get the wonderful law; If not, why force it. ”

There was an old monk inside, knocking on the wooden fish, with his back to the three uninvited guests.

Miao Miao whispered: "Great God, we are now officially entering the dungeon." That old monk is a very critical task NPC, and he is alone in the entire temple. Later, I'll go to the old monk to trigger the task, you just watch from the side, what does the old saying come about, bystander Qing, you can help see if I have missed any details. ”

"Hmm." Bai Shixiu nodded cooperatively.

Next, he saw a wonderful drama.

When Miaomiao walked over, the old monk in his prime-old years immediately shook his body, as if he saw the daughter of the chosen one, and stood up and exclaimed: "Amitabha, female donor, you have a relationship with my Buddha." ”

"Really?" Miaomiao looked arrogant, she was wearing a hat, she hadn't shown her bald head yet, she didn't look like a monk, but she instantly activated the magical Buddhist bond.

"The monks don't say anything, there was an old man in the past, who deposited a treasure in this temple and entrusted the old man to transfer this thing to someone who is destined."

The old monk said solemnly: "Female Tan Yue, my Buddhism has six magical powers, called the Heavenly Eye Pass, the Sky Ear Pass, his Heart Pass, the Fate Pass, the Divine Realm Pass, and the Leakage Pass. ”

"Okay, then you can give me the treasure." Miao Miao unceremoniously stretched out her hand.

"This ......"

The old monk was suddenly embarrassed: "Donor, listen to the poor monk, the old man in the past had a very strange temperament, leaving three problems. If you clear the test, you can take the treasure with you. ”

"What if it doesn't pass?" Miao Miao asked deliberately.

"Ahem...... If it doesn't happen, why force it. The old monk coughed dryly.

"What are the three problems?" Miao Miao didn't rub it anymore and went straight to the point.

"Female donor, it's better for you to pass the first test first, and then talk about it later." The old monk began a tirade: "Many years ago, my old friend rescued a little carp from the hands of a naughty boy, and when he saw that the carp was dying, he put the fish into the ancient well in a hurry. ”

"Afterwards, the old man was very annoyed, saying that it was not suitable to raise fish in the well, and he ruined the opportunity for the carp to jump over the dragon gate."

"If one day, someone who is destined to come here can go to the ancient well and catch that carp, release it into the river, and return the fish to freedom."

"In this temple, there happens to be a donor who has left a fishing rod and fishing line, and the female Tanyue may wish to borrow it temporarily."

The old monk said, leading Miao Miao to fetch a bamboo fishing rod.

Then the old monk looked at the sky, handed Miaomiao a wooden barrel, and said, "Before dark, if the donor catches the fish, you can put it in the barrel and go to the river at the bottom of the mountain to release it." ”

Miao Miao's eyes rolled: "If I catch that fish, will the master accompany me to release it?" “

The old monk said: "You don't have to, you don't have to hurt the fish for nothing, and after the donor catches it, go straight to release it." ”

Miao Miao asked a fresh and refined question: "Have I released that fish into the wild, and the master can't see it, so I'm not afraid that I will lie to you?" “

The old monk smiled: "People are doing it, the Buddha is watching, and justice is in the hearts of the people." ”

Miao Miao still didn't give up: "What does the fish in the well look like, you don't know the master, if I go to the town at the foot of the mountain to buy a fish, do you recognize the master?" ”

The old monk smiled and said: "The poor monk has a word first, I know a little about the eyes of the sky, is it the fish back then, the old man can know the truth at a glance, why bother the donor to deceive the mind." ”

This time, Miao Miao died: "What if I don't catch that fish before dark?" ”

The old monk said: "When it gets dark, you can't find the fish, and the donor doesn't have to come again." There are times in life when you have to have it, and there are times in life when you don't want it. ”

After speaking, he went to the main hall, knocked on the wooden fish and recited the scriptures, and ignored people anymore.

Miao Miao deliberately ran to the old monk and had nothing to say, but she didn't get any response.

In desperation, she had to take Bai Baixiu and Jasmine to the Longmen Ancient Well behind the temple.

Along the way, Bai Xiu was very curious, just catching a fish, the difficulty was not so high, he didn't understand why Miao Miao had been grinding for so long.

It wasn't until he saw the ancient well that he began to understand.

In front of me, there is a manhole cover, which is sealed like a sewer manhole cover.

Miaomiao pointed to the manhole cover made of iron plates, and said with a wry smile: "This manhole cover is locked, and it can't be opened at all, let alone fish out." God, it's time to show your true skills. ”

Bai Tianxiu circled around the ancient well, thought for twenty seconds, and suddenly looked at Miaomiao suspiciously: "This level is not difficult, you should have cleared the level last time, don't deliberately test me like this." Time is limited, hurry to the next level. ”

"Conscience of heaven and earth, this time the poor nun definitely did not deliberately test you."

Miao Miao smiled bitterly: "Didn't you say it in advance, after passing the third level, I will immediately pay you 500,000 hardship fees." It's the third level right in front of us, and we were stuck here last time. ”

Seeing that the other party didn't seem to be joking, Bai Tianxiu was even more puzzled: "Let me confirm first, you failed last time, mainly because you couldn't open the manhole cover, or after opening it, the fish refused to take the bait?" ”

Miao Miao was also a little puzzled: "I just said, I can't open the manhole cover, and I don't have a chance to fish at all." There should be some kind of seal in this place, last time I was angry and tried to open the manhole cover with brute force, but it was counterattacked, and Teacher Jasmine and I were swept into it by a waterspout and drowned alive......"

Speaking of this, she had palpitations.

The same is true of Ms. Jasmine, who will never want to remember the experience of drowning.

During the day, Xiu couldn't cry or laugh, I really didn't expect that someone would drown if he opened a manhole cover.

At the same time, he was also very glad that he had read the book "Bashu Strange Tales" back then, otherwise he would have been stumped.

At this time, Miaomiao asked: "Great God, what you just said is not difficult, can you do it in minutes like the first two levels?" ”

Bai Tianxiu replied very steadily: "It's not difficult to open the manhole cover, whether I can catch that fish, I can't guarantee." ”

Such a steadiness has made Miao Miao see infinite hope, and her beautiful big eyes began to shine: "Open the manhole cover first, the difficulty of this level, in my opinion, is in the manhole cover, and it should not be so difficult to fish later." ”

"Wait." Teacher Jasmine spoke: "Both, listen to me first." The last time I drowned here, I saw a psychiatrist and had nightmares for a week. If we miss the pool this time, we'll probably drown...... May I ask first, Mr. Tianxiu, how are you going to open the manhole cover? ”

Bai Shixiu asked rhetorically: "You look carefully at the surrounding terrain, what does it look like?" ”

Teacher Jasmine replied, "Like an altar of an ancient Bashu witch doctor." ”

Bai Tianxiu said with a smile: "That's right, we just need to have a ceremonial "Fishing Festival" in western Sichuan, and it is not difficult to open the manhole cover." ”

"Fishing festival? I heard an old professor talk about it, as if it was a kind of mountain song. However, isn't that the tradition of the ancient Miao region? Teacher Jasmine was suspicious, and it seemed that she was really drowning out of the psychological shadow.

Bai Tianxiu nodded when he heard this: "You're right, the dialects in the Yun, Gui, and Sichuan areas before the Great Destruction are actually relatively similar." "Fishing Festival" is not only popular in the Bashu region, but also in the Miaojiang region. ”

Seeing that he was so professional, Teacher Jasmine was convinced: "Okay, you can try it." ”

Miao Miao couldn't wait for a long time, and hurriedly dodged the position to give the great god room to play.

This time, the great god lives up to its name, and it means a bit of a big god.

I saw him walking around the ancient well, stepping on strange steps.

Then he looked at the sky, confirmed his bearings, and stood still.

Immediately after that, he recited words in his mouth, like singing a mountain song, and sang the Shu version of the prayer:

"It's foggy early in the morning, and I'm a fisherman."

"Please invite the Jade Emperor in the sky, and invite the Dragon King under the water."

"Please invite the gentleman of the world on the left, and the king of Hades in the underworld on the right."

"Please go up and down, left and right, and the golden turtle koi will come to meet."

"The ferry goes back to reincarnation, and if you miss it, you have to wait for the next time."

Accompanied by a very ceremonial prayer, there is a pause in the day and night, quite an aura of "an arrow piercing the clouds, thousands of troops come to meet":

"Today I came to the river to walk, and there were big fish and small fish. I don't fish for shrimp, let's go. Today, I only caught 200 catties, please listen to the fish in the river! ”
