Chapter 756: Rat Immortal Marrying
Yun Yangzi was young and vigorous at that time, how could he be frightened by the old man's words, but because of the old man's words, he became curious about the rat's marriage.
Under some inquiry, the old man had to answer truthfully, it turned out that this place was called Rat Xian'an, these villagers were fleeing into the Xing'an Mountains in the early years, when the ice and snow, the climate was cold, they could not live to the beginning of spring, it was a white mouse here who took them to find a cave full of grain, which made them lucky to survive the winter until the beginning of spring.
Since then, these villagers have lived here, built houses and multiplied, in order to repay the kindness of the mouse, the villagers decided to listen to what the white mouse said, build a mouse fairy temple for it, and worship it with the specifications of the family fairy, after that, the villagers named the village the mouse fairy pass, in order to commemorate the kindness of the mouse fairy.
However, in the past hundred years, this village has bred thousands of people, one day, the village chief dreamed in his sleep that an old lady covered in snow-white silk told him, saying that he was the white mouse who led them to find the grain hole, and that he had been able to turn into a dream by relying on their incense over the years, and had come to propose marriage to them.
The gray fairy bluntly said that his family had also accumulated a lot of property, and he specially hired a good son-in-law for his daughter, so as to spread the branches of the white mouse family.
After the village chief woke up, he really saw a few more golden beans under the pillow, and the marks were clear under a bite, indicating that this was indeed real gold, and no one was deceiving him.
The village chief was surprised, so he had no choice but to call the villagers and the village elders to discuss the matter and convey Mrs. Gray's meaning to the clansmen.
Mrs. Gray said that he did not specify who the good son-in-law was, but only chose a man with good facial features and a strong body, and in exchange he would give the villagers a bucket of gold and a bucket of pearls, and after that, the man had nothing to do with the family.
These dowries are indeed impeccable for the countrymen, and the value of a bucket of gold alone is enough for them to be reborn and become wealthy squires, but there is one thing they are not very satisfied with, that is, as long as their children are rich, they will no longer have contact with their own family, and then they will be completely cut off.
In the face of these dowry gifts, some families coveted, some families were worried, and in the end, the village chief made a rule that those who are single in the family do not participate in the selection, and there are more than two men to select a good son-in-law.
After some tossing, the villagers with many men in the village were all gathered in the courtyard of the village chief, and then he took out the basket and poured soybeans into it, only putting a red bean, if anyone can get the red bean, even if he is selected as a good son-in-law, these silver coins will belong to the family of the good son-in-law.
After a lot of lots, the youngest son of the Zhao family finally became a son-in-law, and the money naturally fell into the hands of the Zhao family.
A few days after the village chief selected a good son-in-law, he saw Mrs. Gray in a dream one after another, and explained the situation of the Zhao family to the gray fairy clearly, and after obtaining the consent of the gray fairy, he began to prepare for the wedding, only to wait for the gray fairy to marry three days later.
The Zhao family got the news, gave their youngest son a haircut, bathed and manicure, and bought another set of satin clothes, just waiting for the gray fairy to pick up their relatives.
Three days later, there was a heavy fog outside the village, first the sky was chaotic and dark, and then there was the sound of gongs and drums beating around, and in the clouds and mist, I really saw a team of relatives sedan chair walking towards the village and stopping in front of Zhao's house.
The neighbors went out to see the excitement under curiosity, most of these sedan chairmen are thieves and rat brains, even if it is a human face, it can be seen from the appearance of the sharp-beaked monkey's gills that it is an animal pretending, as for the matchmaker headed by her, her body is round and jade, and her simple appearance is festive.
After the Zhao family opened the door, they came to the door with their little son dressed in red, and sent the sedan chair in the beating of gongs and drums, and then saw the servants behind them carrying a bucket of gold beans and pearls into the Zhao family, as well as two boxes of silk and antique jade, and stuffed the courtyard to the brim. 33
Seeing that the matter was over, the matchmaker motioned to the sedan chair man to lift the sedan chair and disappear into the clouds and mist, until the clouds completely subsided and the sky returned to normal.
Subsequently, the youngest son of the Zhao family seemed to have lost the news and never appeared in front of people again, and the old lady Zhao later thought that she missed her youngest son, and she also burned incense for the gray fairy, but the gray fairy never responded.
Over the years, there have been several young people of the clan who have been selected as good sons-in-law by the rat fairy, although they have also got money, but they will never see each other again in this life, which is somewhat uncomfortable.
After listening to this story, Yun Yangzi has realized the strangeness, taking advantage of the villagers to sleep at night, and really saw that the rat fairy came to marry again, and after the family sent the son Lang to the sedan chair, he carefully followed behind the greeting team, until these people came out of the rat fairy pass, and then turned into a gray mouse.
He wiped off all the traces and followed behind the big rats carrying the sedan chair, after they walked into the deep mountains and old forests, they crooked in it and walked to a thousand-year-old pine tree before stopping, and then, the bodies of these mice and the sedan chair became smaller and smaller, and finally they were the size of a palm, walked into the hole under the pine tree, and disappeared.
Yun Yangzi chased under the pine tree, and it was difficult to look forward, this mouse hole was smaller than his hand, and it was difficult to go down, and he was suddenly hit by the pine needles on the tree under his impatience, and the back of his head became more and more chaotic, and he gradually fell asleep, and when he woke up, his body also shrunk thousands of times, becoming the same size as the mouse hole, seeing this magical situation, he didn't have time to think about it, and immediately entered the mouse hole, wanting to see where the cave was.
Yunyangzi entered the pine hole and kept rushing down, waiting for the roots of the tree to be exhausted, no more weeds, had already walked to a bridge, he looked up carefully, the gatehouse in front of the bridge was towering, the pine roots were no longer seen here, only to see the gatehouse plaque written "rat fairy country" ancient text.
Then, an old man with a long beard and wide sleeves walked out of the bridge and smiled at him: "There are friends from afar, I am very happy, the distinguished guests have a fate to the rat fairy country, then it is fate, the princess of my rat fairy country is marrying, it is better to go to the rat fairy country to drink a glass of wine." ”
Yunyangzi also came to find out the truth, and let himself be welcomed into the gatehouse by the gray-robed old man, and when he went out again, he had already come to the Rat Immortal Kingdom.
Although it is said that it is underground, it can be regarded as very magnificent, the city tower is majestic, the houses are magnificent, countless dwellings surround the imperial city, the water flows through the city, the grass and trees are prosperous, and it can be seen that the sunlight is sprinkled with the tree holes everywhere, shining into the city.
Yun Yangzi followed the gray-robed old man into the palace, and really saw the villager who was sent into the sedan chair, at this time, the villager was pulling the gray fairy princess, toasting and greeting in front of the guests, which was extremely lively.
After entering the table, the old man of the gray fairy bluntly said that he was the lord of the rat fairy country, this rat fairy country under the pine tree, it was he who founded it, and it has been founded for more than 100 years.
Some people died, but not completely......
