Chapter 37: Hundred Beasts Worship the Moon
All things are animist, and although they are not enlightened, they are approached by instinctive attraction.
Ye Qin didn't expel these creatures, because these animals had no effect on his cultivation, and when his cultivation was over, those animals would also leave on their own and go with them.
The sky showed a touch of fish belly white, and the mountains ushered in the first morning light, falling on the highest part of the terrain, soaked in the moonlight stones, and began to accept the baptism and washing of the sun.
At this moment, Ye Qin had already returned to the cave to rest, and those animals had also disappeared without a trace, completely missing the grand scene of last night.
There is a lot of white fog on the top of the mountain, between the morning light and the slight glow, the fog is swirling, the sun wheel is gradually rising, the sea of clouds is churning, reflecting the blue sky, just like the masterpiece of the master's pen, a big stroke of the pen, it is the best sunrise map.
The golden light shrouded the continuous mountains, and in the glow, like dragon scales, exuding a shining brilliance, even the villages not far away were also embellished with special colors.
Longyuan Village is 100 meters away from the foot of the mountain, there is a huge lake not far away, surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the geography and climate here are more suitable.
Although the location is relatively remote, there are many people living here, nearly 100 or so families, although not as prosperous as the metropolis, but everyone has a different way of life.
Wang Dazhu and Zhou Niu came back from eating the wedding wine in the next village, and in order to take a shortcut, they chose a trail in the mountains.
The two drank too much wine, and the journey was slow, and by the time they came to their senses, it was already dark.
It was evening, and it was evening.
Zhou Niu pulled Wang Dazhu, "We have to hurry up, if it's too late, we won't be able to see the road." β
It can be said that the villagers in this vicinity, from the time they were able to walk, ran all over the mountains and wilderness.
But the mountains at night are still more dangerous, not to mention the poisonous insects, snakes and ants, if you accidentally touch medium and large predators, it will be dangerous.
Zhou Niu burped, "Brother Wang, are you going the wrong way, how do I feel, I've been spinning here." β
Wang Dazhu scratched his head, "No, I walked through it a few months ago, so it shouldn't be a mistake, and if you go to the west, you should be able to walk out." β
As the night began, a full moon hung high in the sky, and the silver glow sprinkled illuminated the path between the mountains and fields, and the two could barely discern the direction, so that they did not look like blind men.
Zhou Niu looked at the moon above his head, "Fortunately, there is a moon today, and our mobile phones are out of battery again, otherwise it would really be a blind man walking." β
Wang Dazhu was a little strange, "Today is not August 15th, why is the moon suddenly so round, like a big cake in my pot." β
As he spoke, he wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth.
Zhou Niu couldn't help but roll his eyes, "I ate so many sauce elbows at the dinner table just now, I dare you eat it for nothing." β
Wang Dazhu smiled and touched his stomach, "I haven't walked for a long time, and I've digested everything, but the taste of that sauce elbow is really good." β
The two of them walked on the road one foot deep and one foot shallow, "But then again, have you noticed that the moon is brighter than usual today." β
Because of this, the surrounding environment does not seem to be so dim, and the mountain men are used to walking at night and do not feel afraid.
"And why is it so quiet today?"
Zhou Niu looked around, and there were usually insects and birds, especially frogs and cicadas, and occasionally night owls.
But now there is no sound, the silence is incredible, only the footsteps of the two of them, which is strange and unaccustomed.
Although many animals are resting nowadays, this is the time when some of the evening creatures are at their most active.
Hearing Zhou Niu say this, Wang Dazhu was also puzzled, and looked up at the sky, "Yes, when I used to walk at night, I always saw night owls flying by, but now I can't see any of them." β
In the countryside, it is customary to call owls night owls.
It seemed that the creatures of the whole mountain had fallen asleep, and not even a single vole that liked to be active at night could be found, as if all the animals had gone into hiding.
The environment was too quiet, but it made them a little uncomfortable, although Wang Dazhu and Zhou Niu didn't believe in any weird stories, and they felt a little unusual at the moment.
"Forget it, let's hurry up, I always feel weird in the mountains today."
Wang Dazhu had a lot of nerves, but he didn't think about it so much.
The two quickened their pace, but they did not expect that the path they had taken was getting cheaper, and they were walking in the direction of the highest ground.
Zhou Niu frowned, "It stands to reason that we should have already reached the foot of the mountain, why are we still here, could it be that we have gone in the wrong direction again." β
Wang Dazhu saw something, and beckoned to Zhou Niu, "Brother Zhou, come and take a look, there seems to be something ahead." β
There was enough shadow in front of him, Zhou Niu pushed aside the bushes in front of him, but when he saw the scene in front of him, the pupils of the two suddenly shrank, and they were immediately stunned in place.
Wang Dazhu gasped, and was about to exclaim in surprise, but Zhou Niu covered his mouth, his eyes widened at this moment, and his face changed even more.
Both of them leaned their backs against the tree, and their breathing became a little heavy.
One can't help but wonder what exactly they see?!
Wang Dazhu lowered his voice, "Brother Zhou, we shouldn't have hallucinated just now, why are so many animals gathered together." β
Zhou Niu shook his head, not sure if he had drunk too much.
He took a deep breath and pushed aside the bushes in front of him again.
Through the moonlight overhead, this time I could see more clearly.
I saw that there were dense wild animals standing not far away, and at a glance, I couldn't see the bottom at all.
It's all small animals like voles, rabbits, weasels, and foxes.
Although these animals are relatively small, they are still quite numerous.
Many of these animals are even opposites.
The fox and the rabbit stand together!
There are also weasels and voles, although they all have a mouse word, which sounds like relatives, but the eight poles can't be glimpsed, and the voles are still on the weasel recipe.
And that's not the most important thing.
Best of all, all animals are in the same position!
Wang Dazhu swallowed his saliva deeply, only to feel that his throat was smoking, and it was so dry that he said in disbelief:
"Brother Zhou, do you feel that these animals seem to be .......?"
When it came to the back, he couldn't say it anymore.
Zhou Niu's face was pale, and large drops of sweat appeared on his forehead, falling to the ground, obviously understanding what he meant.
The animals had their upper bodies upright, their forelimbs slightly bent, and from their vantage point, it looked like, likeβin moon worship!
Beasts worship the moon!
This scene is literally giving goosebumps to the table.
As soon as the mountain breeze blew at night, the two couldn't help but shiver, only to realize that their backs had been soaked in cold sweat.
