Outside the city of Yundu, on the shore of Yunchi Lake.

A certain justice is fishing.

The sky is also green, the lake is also green, the white clouds on the head are small and condensed, a small group, lined up by the wind, reflected in the lake, the wind blows the grass, very beautiful.

But it doesn't seem to be a good weather place for fishing, this male has been sitting for a long time, the fishing line is rippling, the lake is moving, but the fish are not on it.

However, after half a day, someone suddenly came.

The visitor was also a fisherman, but he looked very strange.

looks like a teenager, his face is tender, his face is delicate, his facial features are delicate, and his eyes are smart, even if he is afraid that the daughter of the Zhizhou Mansion will not be able to raise it so well.

And she was dressed in three-color clothes, slightly faded and faded, embroidered cloth shoes, very fit, took a small fishing rod about the same length as hers, and caught a bug by the lake as bait, and the whole person sat down on the rocks by the lake very casually, and threw the hook bait into the water.

And chatted with this public.

Nowadays, the world is very unstable, even the imperial court has chaos, there are many legends of demons and ghosts inside and outside the city of Yundu, and those stories that have been circulated among the people and come from hundreds of years ago have begun to be staged today.

This duke has also heard a lot of rumors about demons and ghosts, and when he saw this little lady, he felt that she was not an ordinary person. What's more, this place is quiet and uninhabited, far away from the village, and no one usually comes, let alone such a young lady who does not look simple, it must be unusual to come here. I have also heard that evil demons often pretend to be old and weak women and children and murder people, so it is absolutely impossible to judge whether good or evil is based on appearance alone, so my heart became more and more worried.

It's just that the little lady was the first to speak and talk to him, he was afraid of angering her, so he didn't dare not answer, and he didn't dare to leave easily, so he had to deal with it while thinking about a way to get out.

The little lady first chatted with him, talking about the stone pot boiled fish that has become popular in Yundu City in the past two years, it sounds like she likes it very much, this prince did not let down her vigilance, and only told her truthfully that it was brought by a merchant who came to Yundu Tea and Horse Market from the west, because it was cheap and easy to use, many fishermen in fishing villages by the lake followed suit, and gradually spread to Yundu City.

The little lady was very interested and asked him where to sell stone pots, and he mustered up the courage to reply, there are many ones sold in the West Market, and the prices vary because of the material and carving skills of the stone pots.

The little lady was overjoyed, and planned to carve a few and sell them in the West Market.

Normal people rarely talk like this.

At the time of the conversation, the little lady had three fish, two large and one small, and the male fishing rod was still calm.

After that, the little lady asked him again, where is there a kind of sugarcane to sell sugarcane, the practice of delicate rice noodles and hot and sour fish can be passed here, speaking strangely, like very organized, at least normal teenagers are not as good as her, but the words are very jumpy, not like ordinary people's thinking, plus she is young, suddenly appeared, and has been to the city and has been to the condensation, and has not been accompanied by adults, which makes this man feel that she is by no means a normal person, on the surface with her casual answers, but in fact, she is secretly vigilant, and refuses to relax easily.

But the little lady told him not to be afraid.

This man denied it: Why is he afraid of coming here to fish?

The little lady replied solemnly: When people are afraid, they have a smell, and some animals are good at smelling this smell.

The man was so shocked that he almost dropped his fishing rod.

But the little lady told him that she was not a bad person, and she had no malice, but she also liked fishing, and she had come here to fish a few years ago, and now she had revisited the old place, and she saw that there was also a fisherman, so she came to talk to him and asked him some questions, and if he was afraid, he could leave now.

This general will be suspicious and dare not believe it all.

Then the little lady told him that the height of his bait was wrong, some of it was too low, and that the group of fish in the lake now swam higher and swam over his bait, so that the fish in the lake kept coming and going, but they could not see his bait, and naturally they could not catch fish.

In recent years, algae have grown, and the lake is green, how can you see fish?

This public knew that she was extraordinary, so she took back the fishing rod, adjusted the float, and soon after dropping it, it was already black and floating, and the lever looked at it, and sure enough, it was on the fish.

Under the great joy, the sorrow is gone.

Immediately, the two talked happily.

The little lady's tone was innocent, her eyes were ignorant, and her expression was very serious, claiming that she had come from afar, touring the world, and asking him about the demons and ghosts in Yundu.

In recent years, there have been more and more demons and ghosts in Yundu, some are harmful, some are not harmful, it is said that in some places, demons and ghosts are frequent, but because they are not harmful, after the locals confirm this, they are slowly even accustomed to it.

And if it is a demon that is harmful to people, there are naturally people who eliminate demons.

There are one hundred and eighty exorcists inside and outside the city of Yundu City, some of whom are masters of cultivation in the palace temple, some are strange people of the people, some are family heirlooms, some are learned from teachers, and some are taught by passing immortals. If you say the most diligent, it is a person in the city, a few years ago from the passing by the gods to get the ability, since then by the demon to get rid of the demon for a living, a few years of fame, in the folk word of mouth is considered to be excellent, and even sometimes there are evil demons and ghosts to make trouble, the local people have no money, he is willing to go.

The two had a good conversation.

It wasn't until a long time later that the little lady got up with a lot of fish and told him that she was leaving.

The man asked her name.

Answer: Cat Dao people.

When the little lady left, this man sat alone by the lake, still feeling strange, looking back on today's experience, I only felt like the stories I heard when I was young and recorded in the strange ancient books, but the world changed, and this kind of story began to really happen around me.

It wasn't until the wind by the lake became more and more noisy that the man felt a little cool, and saw that his fish basket was enough to exchange for a drink, so he got up and walked back.

Halfway through, I suddenly remembered-

It is rumored that the young man in the city got the ability from the passing gods, and was told by the gods to subdue demons and eliminate demons and eliminate harm for the people.

Could it be that the gods came back to watch?

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was, and he couldn't help but be surprised.

And what is happening now, who knows, will not become a long-term story in people's ears in a few hundred years?

……

Summer grass forests are lush by the lake.

Far away from the lake, the grass was flattened, and a bed of old felt was laid on it, and a Taoist lay on it, staring at the white clouds in the sky, staring intently.

The lake breeze can be blown here, it is very pleasant to cross the face, the grass and forest are disturbed by the wind, the sound of rustling also makes people calm, and at the same time there is a distance from the lake, and it will not be disturbed by mosquitoes at the water's edge, lying down here leisurely and watching the clouds, it is really a fairy-like day.

Suddenly, the grass shook.

The girl with the fishing rod and the fish walked back, and when she saw the Taoist, she looked at him a few more times, and then asked:

"What are you thinking?"

This kind of thing is usually asked by Song You.

"Didn't think about anything."

"What meow didn't think about either?"

"It's just a little weird, a little unreal."

"How can Meow not be real?"

"Yesterday morning, we were still in the Western Regions, the snow-capped mountains at the foot of Tianwan Mountain are vast, and today we arrived in Yunzhou Yundu, thousands of miles away, the mountains and rivers are endless, and we will cross it all at once."

"Hmm......"

The girl was still holding the fishing rod, carrying the fish, tilting her head to stare at him, as if she wanted to say something, and it seemed that because of his words, she could also experience a little wonderful trance, and after a while, she turned her head to the other side, and said to him in a serious tone:

"Sanhua Niangniang's crane is very powerful!"

"Nature." Song You said to her, "Ten thousand miles of heaven and earth will be returned in one day." Sanhua Niangniang's mana is getting more and more refined. ”

"Thousands of miles of heaven and earth will be returned in one day!"

"yes......"

The Taoist turned his head to her and smiled: "Ordinary monsters, except for those with wings, before cultivating into a big demon and proficient in the art of retreat, even if they have practiced much longer than Sanhua Niangniang and their Taoism is much higher, they can't be like Sanhua Niangniang, spanning thousands of miles in one day." ”

"It's a crane!"

"The Crane ...... of the Three Flower Girls"

“……”

Sanhua Niangniang stared at him for a while, her eyes flickered, and then she changed the topic: "Sanhua Niangniang just went to find someone to ask according to what you said, that person, the person in Yundu before, is still often in this place to subdue demons and eliminate demons, only beating demons and monsters that harm people, very obedient, it seems to have become more powerful, well, it must have become richer." ”

"Thank you, Sanhua Niang."

"You're welcome!"

Sanhua Niangniang came over and put the fish down, looked at the swallow standing on the reed, stretched her neck again, looked at the movement in the grass and forest, and then sat down at the feet of the Taoist, and began to tell him that she had just gone to the lake to fish and met the fisherman, and the fisherman's worried and scared appearance and the interesting things in the conversation, and waited for the sunset together.

The Taoist stayed here for a few days.

On the one hand, it satisfies the fun of fishing for Sanhua Niangniang, and on the other hand, it also goes to the nearby mountains and rivers to take a turn.

A few days later—

Bujun Luchuan, there is a cloud pond above the dam tree.

It's just that the cloud pond where Sanhua Niangniang fished refers to the big lake outside the Yundu City of Yunzhou, and this cloud pond is a deep pit accumulated by white clouds on the high mountains and surrounded by mountains, which was once the residence of the real dragon.

Originally, the real dragon had said to him, "Lend you some strength between heaven and earth", Song You thought that he was only referring to the wood line spirit rhyme that had turned into the dragon's heart, and when he left the Bashu Cloud Pool, he also felt that the real dragon left a lot of spiritual rhyme in the cloud pool dragon pool, as if it spit out a mouthful of dragon breath back then, and the vitality is infinite, which can make thousands of mountains green and the earth spring. However, at that time, he only felt that this was just something that the real dragon naturally left after living in the pool for a long time, and even if the real dragon specially left it, it was probably left to this piece of heaven and earth for the benefit of the local people.

Now that I think about it, most of it was specially left for him.

It is left to the mountains and rivers of heaven and earth, but it is left to a broader piece of heaven and earth, and it is for the benefit of the people, but it is for the benefit of more people.

The real dragon comes from ancient times, and it has a long history, so it will not be unaware that there is an ancient god in the Heavenly Palace, named the ancient god of Tianzhong, also known as the Emperor of Tianzhong, the Emperor of Tianzhong, and has a dead air clock.

This is also the bit of strength he lent to the Taoist.
