There is a mountain in the south that runs through the east and west, and those who know it call it a mortal, and if you want to step on it, unless an immortal comes to the world.

A sentence of immortals is in the south, and Qingshi Village is the closest place to it.

Red Bean is now in the clouds, she doesn't know how long she has climbed, but after coming out of the ice and snow, she doesn't feel hungry and tired, her body has become lighter, her skin is no longer injured, and the most surprising thing for her is that even her clothes have become indestructible, of course, when the wind blows, the skirt will still flutter with the wind.

There are a lot of strange stones on the mountain, strange flowers and plants are also very, and the scenery seen under the mountain is completely different, the green butterflies that stop bleeding and reduce swelling are like weeds all over the place, this flower can detoxify snake venom, that flower can cure strain, full of dazzling, even if it is an old man who has practiced medicine for a hundred years, he will not help but marvel again and again. And the higher up, the more beautiful the red grass is behold, it is indeed beautiful, as if a carpet is draped over this steep, it is already a little cold here, but they are still competing with each other, better than many beautiful and pleasant in the world.

Walking up a mountain, you can know spring, summer, autumn and winter.

I don't know when, the mountain was covered with a layer of white frost, and gradually the snow rose again, more like a white coat, and the snow lotus stood proudly in it.

There's wind, it's the kind of breeze that makes the snow lotus dance.

"Dispel wind and win dampness, and invigorate menstruation and blood." Red beans chatter. Pieces of snow lotus are like jade, like a woman's skin is crystal clear, and the purity of this place has already penetrated the thoughts of mortals.

Walking further up, Hongdou has gradually ignored the moat under his feet, because the clouds have caused isolation, the difference between heaven and man, and the difference between man and immortal.

Not to mention that it is easy to go up the mountain and difficult to go down

The red bean has forgotten the time, and the body has also forgotten the nostalgia, a long hair, ten fingers, never changed, the summer heat, the winter cold, and no longer noticed.

I don't know how long it will be, suddenly there is a white light sprinkled, like the stars and moons can be seen with the naked eye, and it falls between the peaks and mountains, as if it is like this for eternity.

This is the top of Nanshan, mortal difficulty has reached the highest place, the scenery here, perhaps except for the birds that flew and died earlier, few people have seen it.

We all know that it is difficult for mortals to climb it, but I don't know that even immortals are difficult to fly.

Looking behind him, the height of Nanshan Mountain makes even the red beans standing on it feel like they can't see the mountains at a glance. Only by stepping on the mountain boulder, can you feel a little pleasure, Hongdou knows, this stone is a stepping stone, a stumbling block, is a whetstone.

Taking a deep breath of fresh air, no longer nostalgic, she turned around and stretched out her hands to touch the white light in front of her, at this moment, she is the most fearless person in the world.

There was no imaginary danger, not even a hint of touch, and when Azuki's body completely crossed the white light, a completely different world appeared before her eyes.

Hongdou stood on a huge altar, she was standing in front of the offering table in astonishment, accepting the kneeling of nearly a thousand people, and under her feet, all the herbs turned into sand and fell to the ground.

Looking at the mountains behind him, there is only a stone statue of a woman behind the offering table, and behind the stone statue is the vast sea.

Before the red bean could react, the men, women and children below suddenly let out enthusiastic cheers.

"It's the Dragon Maiden! The dragon lady has appeared! ”

"I knew the dragon lady wouldn't leave us alone."

"Great, I don't have to worry about this year's food."

Almost all of them were elated, but of course some questioned that the dragon maiden's stone statue did not have a single fang.

And the result was in exchange for a punch and kick from the people around them, and their reason was also very convincing, that is, the appearance in front of them was the real body of the dragon girl.

Dragons naturally have longer teeth than humans.

But gradually, doubts arose in the hearts of the red beans, at that time a wisp of cooking smoke had risen, the taste was good, and I don't know which one made a fish in the early morning, the taste was strange and familiar.

After a while, an old man struck the stone slab under him with a cane, and a dull sound came out, and the silent atmosphere spread like a wave, and soon the audience was silent, as if there was such a respected old man in each ethnic group, who became the core and led everyone.

"Welcome to the Dragon Maiden."

The old man's voice was loud, and after him, the same voice came from the mouths of thousands of people: "Welcome to the Dragon Girl." ”

"Me, Dragon Lady?" Hongdou was stunned for a while, and hurriedly explained: "No, no, no, everyone misunderstood, but there is no dragon girl like me." ”

It's just that her words are so pale and weak, there is no way, earlier there would be some people who were regarded as messengers of God because of their looks.

In Bluestone Village, the dragon is also a legendary existence and a symbol of worship by everyone.

Seeing that everyone raised their heads and looked at them suspiciously, Hongdou hurriedly ran down the steps, first helped the old man up, and everyone slowly stood up, so that most of her impression of being a dragon girl would be erased, and the dragon was noble, how could she come into contact with their filth.

The old man seemed to be more willing to believe, he still looked at the red beans, the dragon girl did not come, this land would continue to be barren, although they lived by the sea, they were not fishermen, although this ocean was free of wind and waves, but not a single fish survived.

"I said it a long time ago."

The one who had been beaten before straightened his back, his eyes moving from side to side, full of disdain.

"Little girl, aren't you really a dragon girl?" The old man asked sincerely.

Red Bean nodded.

"But we all just saw you suddenly appear on the altar......"

On the side, a little girl raised her face and whispered: "Yes, isn't this kind of ability only available to dragon girls?" ”

Red Beans were speechless for a while, and I really didn't know how to explain it.

At this time, someone suddenly exclaimed: "Look, everyone, look at the stone statue!" ”

The red bean was stunned for a moment, and looked back with his eyes, only to see that the dragon girl's mouth gradually opened, and the teeth slowly became sharp, and then there were still red bean teeth, the original teeth fell off one by one, and at the same time, new teeth continued to grow, it seems that the medicinal effect of tiger mouth grass has been changed.

When the change stopped, everyone's eyes moved back and forth between the stone statue and the red bean, and their faces were full of shock.

At this time, if the red bean does not open its mouth, only the canine teeth are slightly exposed on both sides of the mouth, and the whole person looks delicate and cute, and when the mouth is opened, the sharp teeth like a fierce beast are intertwined, fierce and cruel.

"Dragon Maiden! Dragon Lady! I don't know who shouted like that, and everyone's enthusiasm ignited to a climax again.

Hongdou was even more confused, could he really be a dragon girl, thinking of this, Hongdou shook his head vigorously, this is impossible, but the change of teeth is indeed the happiest thing these days.

The old man's eyes were moist, and he knelt in front of the red bean again, "Please ask the dragon girl to rain down for us." ”

In the midst of another shout from the crowd, Hongdou half-pushed and half-walked up to the altar, picked up the order flag on the offering table, symbolically raised it and shouted: "The wind comes." ”

Hongdou smiled bitterly, what is this called, but the next moment, the hair on his forehead began to rise, and then there was a rustling sound, and the wind really came.

"The rain is coming." Seeing this, Hongdou didn't dare to slack off, no matter what the truth was, the rain would fall first.

Black clouds drifted from the sea, thunder roared, and when the first drops of rain fell on people's faces, everyone boiled.

"It's raining! It's raining! ”

"Thanks to the Dragon Maiden."

"yes, yes, the dragon lady saved us all."

More than one person cried, and another was beaten again.

The rain gradually became heavier, but everyone refused to leave, their eyes became extremely hot, and the same was true of Hongdou's eyes, not because she suddenly changed from being unpopular to being the object of worship of others, but because she didn't believe that all this was accidental, there was really a different existence here, that might be the real dragon girl, and she was just a tool to exert her power.

I don't know how long the heavy rain will last, some of the frail people have already shrugged their shoulders, and Hongdou knows that as long as she doesn't speak, these people won't leave.

"Let's all go home." Hongdou said weakly, and finally the old man spoke, and told everyone that the dragon girl would continue to stay here, and everyone left excitedly.

Hongdou decided to follow this old man, firstly, she had just come here, and she was unfamiliar with the place, and following such an old man could save her a lot of trouble, and secondly, as an elder in charge of the sacrifice, she must know more about the dragon girl.

All the way to the country road, all the way to the local people.

The old grandfather's surname is Xu, in addition to him, there are eight brothers and sisters, but they are all gone, he ranks ninth, familiar people call him Xu Lao Jiu or Lao Jiu, unfamiliar people, juniors respect a ninth grandfather, the people in the village are surnamed Xu, passed in a lineage, and call themselves Xujia Village.

There are also four seasons here, but it is not easy to notice, and there are births, old ages, sickness and death, but the years are long.

In short, this place is not absolutely different from the outside world. The mountains are steep and the water is cool.

About the dragon girl, Xu Laojiu always smiled, and then told Hongdou in a serious tone that people have never descended from the sky, immortals rise from the earth, and they have become immortals after living for a long time.

"I can't say if there were immortals earlier, but now it's really gone, and the dragon girl is the last chess player."

Xu Laojiu explained that the legend says that every 10,000 years, two chess players will be born, and they play against each other and distinguish between high and low in their lifetimes, but the funny thing is that although there is a difference between the two of them, there is no difference between victory and defeat, and their origin and disappearance seem to be just a joke made by God because of boredom.

But it is believed that the power of each player will be passed on.

And this time is the first inheritance of the dragon girl, and I think teeth are her characteristics.

Hongdou felt happy, now that he has this power, the day of revenge is not far off.

About himself, Hongdou really doesn't want to mention it, so he can only say that he came from outside.

Xu Laojiu looked at his eyebrows and asked what kind of world was outside the red beans.

There are many dynasties, tyranny and brutality, continuous conquests, the people are not able to make a living, and those who suffer are always those who do not know hardship.

Xu Laojiu and Hongdou sighed one after another, and the people who died in vain became ghosts who died unjustly, but they seemed to have changed, but it was just because the living crime was inescapable.

The path is very long, the walk is very short, and gradually the atmosphere of people is stronger.

A few wisps of cooking smoke rose, and the red beans smelled the aroma of fish.

Several rows of thatched houses are scattered, clean and simple, the old people chatting and children playing, everything seems so beautiful.

"Grandpa Nine, is this sister new here? I haven't seen it before. ”

Soon after entering the village, several children were not afraid of the rain, ran around the two of them, casting curious eyes, they did not go to the altar, they did not know that the dragon girl was the girl in front of them, and even their age did not understand what the dragon girl represented.

Xu Laojiu smiled and said that he had picked up a sister for them to play with her.

"I don't want it, my sister is a tiger and can eat people." Then he grimaced, opened his mouth, and ran away.

"This stinky boy." Xu Laojiu was embarrassed, not to lose, Hongdou shook his head, not angry but laughing, really not strange, I really don't care.

Xu Laojiu's home is still in the east.

At a fork in the road, the two elderly people slowly moved their legs and slowly moved forward, for a while, the old men separated from each other, and after a while, the old man found that there was no one around him, and his smile was still the same, and he walked to the side and pulled the old woman back. said, "Old woman, go this way." ”

Xu Laojiu smiled, and told Hongdou not to be surprised, the two are old, and the grandmother no longer remembers her home, but fortunately, the people around her have not been forgotten.

Hongdou was stunned, envious in his heart, it was too difficult to be called an old woman in troubled times.

One mountain apart, two lives.

Only then did Hongdou understand that there was a difference here.

Xu Laojiu's thatched house is larger, and there is a flag outside the door: bruises.

When I entered the door, a smell of medicinal wine came.

"It's shabby, don't dislike it."

"No, no, no." It's really a lot better than Bluestone Village.

After a few conversations, Hongdou knows the old man in front of him better, and he knows more about this family, there are not many people, the people are simple, and of course, the children are naughty.

In other places, Xujia Village and Qingshi Village are similar, both of them are free, confined to the freedom of the mountain nest.

But Xujia Village is much better, at least there is no dynasty here, no harsh government, no displacement, no separation of children and wives.

"When the rain stops, I'd like to go to the statue again."

Xu Laojiu nodded, saying that he would go out for a while, and soon, meat dishes were quickly brought from all over the house, and the red beans were surprised, and it seemed that the fish fragrance she smelled was also like this.

"There is a big drought these days, and there are really no vegetables, I don't know if a girl in the dragon girl is used to eating it."

I'm not hungry, and I can't bear to refuse hospitality.

Hongdou nodded hurriedly and asked everyone to sit, in the year of the great drought, everyone is very poor, so that it will not be wasted, eating and eating, Hongdou suddenly raised his head, everyone was stunned, and thought that the dragon girl had something displeased, but Hongdou then said: "Is there wine?" ”
