Chapter 446: Sanhua Niangniang's Mountain Treasure
"You're polite."
"Ouch! It's a Taoist! The woodcutter immediately stopped singing, looked at Song You curiously, and asked, "Where are you going?" Could it be that you are here to visit this mountain? Why do you still have a cat? ”
"It's pretty much the same." Song You saluted him, "Under the surname Song Mingyou, from Yizhou, originally traveled the world, I heard that there is a mountain here, there is a rare good scenery in Yangzhou, and I heard that there is a hedonistic god at the foot of the mountain is quite special, so come to visit." It's just that the temple of the god of pleasure seems to have been dilapidated for a long time. ”
"It's broken! It was broken last year! Hearing this, the woodcutter put down a large bundle of firewood on his shoulder, and looked Song You up and down, "Listening to the self-proclaimed Taoist chief, doesn't it look like a Taoist chief?" ”
"Habit." Song You smiled slightly, "The words you sing at your feet are not like woodcutters." ”
"The villain is a firewood gatherer." The woodcutter waved his hand to wipe his sweat, "It's just that when I was young, there lived a Taoist chief from the county town in the temple under the mountain, and the Taoist lived here alone, and there was no one to talk to, and the villain passed by this temple every day and said a few words to him, and after a long time, he also learned a few words." ”
"That Taoist still loves poetry?"
"That Taoist is very literate!" The woodcutter glared when he heard this, and then sighed a little, "It's just that I haven't seen him for many years, and I don't know how he is doing......"
"I just went to Qingyun Palace yesterday, and I heard the Qinghuaizi Daoist of Qingyun Palace, that is, the junior brother of the Daoist in his mouth, say that the Daoist is now profound, and he is faintly going to take over Qingyun Palace, so I think it's also a good life." Song You said with a smile.
"That's good!"
The woodcutter immediately laughed, waved his hand and said, "When I was chopping wood on the mountain, I didn't suffer much from him. ”
"Oh? What grace? ”
"What more grace could there be? Those of us who are hard-working and laborious suffer in the mountains every day, and it is not easy to have a place to beg for water. Sometimes he was bitten by snakes and insects, or accidentally fell down the mountain and twisted his muscles and bones, and the Taoist chief also knew some herbal medicine, if it weren't for him, the villain would not have been able to go up the mountain now. ”
"What a good man."
"Who's to say it isn't? If he can really be a viewer, he deserves it! ”
"Hehe......"
Song You laughed twice in response, withdrew his gaze from the woodcutter's face, and then asked, "I go up the mountain every day to chop wood, I don't know if you know, when did the idol in the temple under the mountain break?" ”
"Temple idols?"
"Exactly."
"That's a long ......"
The woodcutter took advantage of this to rest and chatted with him: "In the past, the government suddenly built a temple here, saying that a god was sealed here, and we will be blessed in the future." However, no one was blessed, but sometimes the people who entered the mountain were frightened by the gods, and the villain did not dare to go up the mountain to chop wood for several years. Especially in the first few years, whenever the people under the mountain are not diligent enough to make incense offerings, the gods will have to rely on dreams to urge, and sometimes even intimidate people. So last year or the year before last, the government sent someone again, saying that it was to belittle the gods and tell us not to worship in the future. ”
The woodcutter said and looked Song You up and down again: "Wouldn't the Taoist also come to find that immortal?" ”
"Sounds like someone else has been looking for you?"
"Huh! You're pretty smart! ”
"......" Song You didn't say anything, but continued to ask gently, "Can you tell me about it?" ”
The three-flowered cat under his feet also raised his head, turned his head to stare at his Taoist priest for a while, and then twisted his head to the other side, staring straight at the woodcutter's face.
"That is, not long after the government degraded the immortals, the villain went up the mountain to chop wood, and an old Taoist chief came over and asked the villain about the way up the mountain, and asked where the immortal appeared most often." When the woodcutter said this, his voice became significantly smaller, but his expression revealed a little excitement, "That night, someone saw the golden light on the mountain here, and when the villain came to the mountain to cut wood the next day, he found that the statue of the god in the temple under the mountain had been broken into pieces, and many trees on the mountain were broken. ”
"I see."
"In my opinion! That old Taoist must be an immortal, the nether realm to get rid of the evil gods on the mountain! ”
"Mostly ......"
"Daoist, why are you looking for that evil god?"
"It's just curiosity in my heart, and I look far away by the way."
"It's ...... to be idle and have nothing to do"
"Haha, thank you so much."
Song You smiled and bowed his hand.
Then he continued to walk up the mountain.
The dense forest in front of him was deep, and so was the forest behind him, and after a while, the woodcutter's song came out, and the song shook the forest.
"Stop talking about everything......
"Dreams are ...... when you don't turn your head"
The Taoist looked calm and kept walking.
There are mountain springs that turn into streams and gurgle down.
When the Taoist was tired and felt thirsty, he stretched out his hand and put it in his mouth, and his mouth was full of crispness and sweetness.
"Young sprouts!"
“……”
Song You followed the sound and saw that the cat was also leaning over to the stream, but turned his head to look at him.
The stream reflected her delicate countenance, and the look of doubt mixed with novelty, and her eyes were as pure as amber.
"Why does he call you Young Sprouts?"
"Maybe it's because of my young face, the local dialect." Song You replied in a low voice, "There's no need to worry about that. ”
"Huh! This young sprout is long, and it's quite smart! ”
"Sanhua Niangniang doesn't need to learn these ......"
"Sanhua Niangniang wants to learn this!"
“……”
"Today, the immortals on this mountain were all killed by that old Taoist leader, do we still want to go to the mountain?" Sanhua Cat asked solemnly.
"Naturally, I'm going."
"I'm idle and have nothing to do~"
"Sanhua Niangniang ......"
"Huh?"
The cat turned its head, but stared at him in confusion.
"Alas......"
Song You shook his head helplessly, sighed, and said to her: "Sanhua Niangniang, hurry up and finish drinking water, let's go." ”
"Okay!"
Only then did the three-flowered cat be honest, leaned down a little more, lowered his head, and licked the water in the stream.
I seem to have some doubts, but I can't remember it.
So I quickly forgot about it.
"Sanhua Niangniang is almost finished drinking water!" The cat raised her body and walked back from the stream, and at the same time looked up at the Taoist, "Let's go, young sprouts, Dao Chief!" ”
“……”
A man and a cat continued upward, and the swallow swept through the air.
Overlooking the rivers under the mountain, overlooking Yinhua County, all the way up to the heights, the autumn is high and refreshing, and you have seen the scenery.
Gradually reached the deep mountains, where the spiritual power was the strongest.
There is a waterfall in front of this place, there is a fruit forest in the back, you can listen to the sound of the water quietly, you can sit and watch the river, the clouds and mist are swirling, the aura is rich, the birds are constantly singing, the fragrance is endless, it is really a fairy place.
"Hiss ......"
The cat began to sniff around in the grass again.
Song You also took a casual walk and looked around.
Among some of the gravel, there are gnawed kernels, which have not been buried by the soil, nor have they rotted, let alone taken root and sprouted, but have turned black and rotten, and it is estimated that at least they were left over from last year. This seems to indicate that the god of pleasure once lived and practiced here.
A year and a half is not enough time to erase all traces of the fighting method.
At least the broken tree next to it has not grown back, at most it has only grown new shoots from the fracture, but it is just judging the time of breaking from the length of the new shoots.
Song You stretched out his hand to touch the broken wound, and also touched the new branches and sprouts.
It was probably last spring and summer.
The fractures were broken, smashed, and severed, and some of the trunks had pierced wounds, most of which had grown into scars.
"Golden Needle Talisman ......"
Song You touched the scar on the tree and guessed in his heart.
Then he turned his head and looked into the distance.
There are faint scratches on the bottom of the cliffs, which have not yet faded, and some of the stones are also covered with bloodstained monkey hair, which have not yet been washed away by the rain.
"Meow~"
The cat found two treasures.
It is also a spiritual plant in the mountains, bearing spiritual fruits, which are ripe at this time and exude an attractive fragrance, and even in the eyes of cultivators and demons, there is still a faint spiritual light.
The same is the corpse of the god of pleasure.
It was a huge mandrill sitting against a tree.
The mandrill itself has a Taoist practice, and it is a god who is sealed here, and the entire mountain is its jurisdiction, and the natural corpse in this mountain is not rotten.
But not being corrupt does not mean that it will last forever.
Song You walked in front of it a foot away and looked at it, only to see this mandrill sitting against a tree, looking like a human, and in addition to the scaly wounds on its body, the color began to slowly fade. At first glance, I thought it was a body of mud and sand accumulated by the wind and sun, but when I looked closely, I realized that it was on the way to turn into a stone statue.
It may not take a few years, and if no one moves it out of the mountain, it will soon turn to a stone.
At that time, maybe future generations will come here and see this stone, and they will also be surprised that it looks like a human and a monkey, and then give it a name as one of the wonders of this mountain.
It seems that this god of pleasure does not have the ability of the god of comfort, and the master sent by the national teacher to destroy it is killed here, and the national teacher is still good at calculation after all, and the person sent this time did not miss again.
Song You stared at it, but he was very emotional.
At the beginning, the national teacher sealed it as a god in this place, Qingyun Palace sent a Taoist person to make a temple blessing for it, help it gather incense, consolidate the god position, it is a dream to thank you, and it is to send spiritual fruit, which can be described as a thankful retribution, and it can be regarded as a simple monster who talks about etiquette. I heard that in the following years, it has also been keeping to itself and has not made trouble.
The rebellion was years later.
Mandrills are gods, and they will fall in a few years.
Could the gods of the Heavenly Palace also be so depraved?
Song You thought about this question and was silent for a long time.
"Daoist, look at this!"
A soft, thin voice pulled him out.
Song You turned his gaze away from the mandrill, looked at the cat and the spirit plant not far away, and explained: "It's just that the wild fruit in the mountains is rich in spiritual energy and deep luck, and it has absorbed spiritual energy and become a spiritual plant, which is what the world under the mountain often says about the spiritual fruit, it is a treasure of heaven and earth, and it is rare." If Sanhua Niangniang likes it, you can pick a few to taste, maybe it will also help with cultivation. ”
"It's helpful for cultivation!"
"Then let's pick a few and taste them."
"It's a lot!"
"Just pick a few fruit stomachs, the spirit fruit is precious, just let it stay here and wait for someone who is destined."
"Precious!!"
"Such a treasure should not be exchanged for money, but it is a waste of money to exchange it." Song You said patiently, "In comparison, it is better to leave it here and wait for someone who is destined to come, which is very wonderful." ”
"Destined people!"
"Sanhua Niangniang is also destined, but Sanhua Niangniang can't eat it alone."
"Cat!"
"Yes......"
"How many do you pick?"
"It's enough for Sanhua Niangniang to eat three, and eating more will only have the effect of quenching thirst and satisfying the stomach."
"Three!"
"Yes......"
"One, two, three, three flower girls, three horses, three swallows, three sprouts......"
The cat turned into a little girl, but she could not help but be greedy, pulling her clothes as a pocket, stretching out her hands on tiptoe, picking fruit from a small tree not much taller than her, and putting it all into her pocket.
There were probably more than twenty fruits on this tree.
It's all red, the fist is so big, it's already ripe, and when you pick it, it's still cloudy, and it's extraordinary at a glance.
In this way, half of the tree is gone.
……
Golden Jasmine has launched a plan to save you from expired monthly passes-
It's the last day! Don't waste it!
