Chapter 113: Chang'e Goes to the Moon
"Oh my God......"
After the six people came to the lake, they were even more stunned by the beautiful scenery in the lake, the moon in the lake, and the bright moon in the sky, no different, reflecting each other, so that the entire glade was sprinkled with moonlight, as if people had an illusion, whether the moonlight in the sky shone into the lake, or the moonlight in the lake shone into the sky?
Intrigued, Fluttershy flapps her wings and grabs the clear water of the moon-reflecting pool close to the water, creating a small wave on the calm and immaculate lake, and Fluttershy flies to the reflection of the moonlight, and can't help but touch the moonlight in the water with her hand, and holds a scoop, only to find that when the water in her hand leaves the lake, it turns into ordinary lake water, clear and clear, but there is no moonlight reflected in it.
"Silly girl, stop playing, and fall into the water again in a while. The sea of clouds called from the far lake.
"I know it!"
Fluttershy shakes her head and flies back.
"Is this really Hou Yi's residence?" Yun Hai couldn't help but understand when he saw Qingluan and the three of them begin to explore the cabin and tomb.
"Definitely, you see. ”
Qingluan pointed to the simple tomb on the ground, and Yunhai clearly saw a line of ancient seal script on it, which read, "The Tomb of Beloved Wife Chang'e".
"Chang'e?" Yunhai has naturally heard of the myth and legend of Chang'e running to the moon, but didn't the legendary Chang'e go straight to the moon and live in the Guanghan Palace?
"What the hell is going on, I'm afraid that I will only know if I go in and investigate, in the legends of our southern Xinjiang, there is no mention of Chang'e's origin and ending, but no matter what, the legend that Chang'e became an immortal and went to the moon must be bluffing, otherwise there would be no tomb. ”
Listening to Qingluan's words, Yun Hai nodded, feeling that what he said was very reasonable, and immediately asked, "Then what should we do now?"
"Just now I briefly looked at the house, and found that there are a lot of books, but on the surface there are only Hou Yi's bones, no sun shooting bow, I plan to look through these documents after dawn, if there are no clues, I can only open Chang'e's tomb, or go to the lake to rummage through it. ”
Yunhai thought about it, this is the only way at present, so he said: "Then we are also tired for a day, why don't we rest first and wait for dawn, how about it?"
"Well, just do what Yun Shaoxia said. ”
In just a quarter of an hour, a simple campsite was set up, Qingluan, Fluttershy, and Akali were methodically packing their things, while Yunhai, Kuishan, and Makino took on the responsibility of keeping watch, and the moon had moved to the southwest, that is, the time had passed, and it was already the second half of the night, and there were about three hours left until dawn, and the three of them took turns to watch each hour, while Qingluan and the other three girls had a good night's sleep.
In the first shift, Yunhai is in charge of the sentry, and when Yunhai sees that Fluttershy is already lying down, he leaves the campfire alone, and sits quietly on a rock by the lake with his sword in his arms, looking at the calm lake, and can't help but feel a sad and lonely atmosphere in his heart, and his thoughts gradually become confused.
"I don't know how Master Dao is doing, whether everything is safe in Yuhengfeng, the two senior brothers should be able to take care of him...... However, the senior sister and the senior sister are gone, and he is alone, I'm afraid he will have a hard time......"
Yunhai unconsciously remembered the bits and pieces in Tianzheng Mountain, the majestic but humorous master Yuan Ye, who has always taken good care of himself and is like a sister and brother, but in the end, because of fate, the senior sister Yuan Ying who died in her own hands, in order to protect Yuan Ye, was pierced through the chest by her daughter's sword, and has always insisted on the equivalent exchange of information, but Jiang Hao, who has a bigger mouth than anyone else, is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and Shen Mengxue, the fairy of Qinse, who is both talented and beautiful...... How can the pain and joy, bitterness and melancholy in it be said in three days and three nights?
Yun Hai raised the sword in his hand, in the moonlight, it reflected the white and flawless brilliance, reflecting Yun Hai's face was snow white, looking at this sword of love, Yun Hai couldn't help but think of the lingering story of the cadre and Mo Ye in the "Shenzhou Weapons Spectrum", Yun Hai vaguely felt that there must be some kind of unknown story between Hou Yi and Chang'e, which was buried in the rolling smoke and dust of history.
"What's the matter?
Yunhai suddenly felt a pair of slender hands hug him from behind, and at the same time, Fluttershy's voice was heard.
"Why, don't you go to sleep?"
"I can't sleep. What the hell is the stupid husband looking at?"
"It's just remembering some things from the past. The sea of clouds pulls Fluttershy over, holds her in her arms, and gazes with her at the unfazed surface of the lake. "When people are quiet, they always can't help but think about the past, and everything they have experienced is like a passing cloud, and they are replayed in front of them one by one......
"Foolish lady......" Fluttershy has a little worry in her eyes, and she is afraid that the painful memories of the sea of clouds will torture him again.
"Don't worry, I won't be controlled by the demons anymore, these are in the past, I still have you, I have to look forward. ”
The night wind is biting, but the sea of clouds is full of warmth, which warms Fluttershy's heart.
"By the way, can you tell me about the legend of Chang'e running to the moon, what is going on?"
Yun Hai smiled, she didn't expect that Fluttershy also loved to listen to stories, she had not been in China for a long time, so she naturally knew nothing about these myths and legends, and immediately told Fluttershy the story of Chang'e running to the moon.
A long, long time ago, there were ten suns in the sky, the land was cracked, the people were struggling to make a living, and the human race was about to perish, at this time, a big hero who stood up to the sky appeared, naturally it was the marksman Hou Yi, he had a magic bow, and he could even shoot the sun down, so Hou Yi used his magic skills and shot down nine suns in one go, leaving only one sun to provide light and heat for all things.
In this process, Hou Yi got acquainted with a beautiful wife, that is, Chang'e, and when the earth was restored to its original state, Hou Yi became a hero in the spotlight because of his exploits, and was rewarded with an immortal elixir by the gods.
Such a beautiful and peaceful life is always short-lived, and soon after, someone heard that the elixir of immortality was handed over to Chang'e by Hou Yi for safekeeping, so he had evil thoughts about it and wanted to snatch it.
Hou Yi went out hunting, leaving Chang'e alone at home, the gangsters took this opportunity to break in, threatening Chang'e to hand over the elixir of immortality, Chang'e refused, in order to avoid the elixir of immortality from falling into the hands of the gangsters, had to eat the elixir of immortality, and since then he has become an immortal and lives in the Guanghan Palace of the moon.
After Hou Yi returned, he learned everything, grief-stricken, he looked at the bright moon in the sky from afar, and vaguely saw a shadow dancing in it, it was clearly Chang'e, so every year on the day of Chang'e to the moon, Hou Yi would put all kinds of snacks that Chang'e loved to eat in the courtyard, and silently missed his wife in the moonlight, and this day was August 15, and over time it became a popular festival in all parts of China - Mid-Autumn Festival.
"Oh my God!
"However, as you can see, all of this is fake, or Chang'e's tombstone can't be here, and besides, I don't believe that there will be any immortal elixir, all of this, I'm afraid there is another reason. Yunhai pats Fluttershy lightly on the forehead. "It's not too early, let's go to bed quickly, we have to work tomorrow!"
"Then you have to go to bed on time!" Fluttershy breaks free from the sea of clouds and walks back in a daze.
"I'll naturally sleep when the time comes, so you should hurry. "Yun Hai didn't look back.
It is only when Fluttershy's slight snoring begins again that the sea of clouds turns its attention back to the lake.
"This girl ......" Yunhai's smile became more and more gentle. "Alright, there's still about a quarter of an hour, I'll hold on a little longer......"
The next morning, Yunhai went to the lake to wash his face and wake himself up from his half-asleep state.
At the campsite, Qingluan is already leading Fluttershy and Akali to prepare breakfast.
"The Butterfly King doesn't look like he doesn't know any survival skills, and he is much more skilled in baking things than me!" Qingluan gently stirred a pot of soup that I didn't know what it was. "Let's do more, that stupid big guy in Kuishan, he can drink this pot of soup alone. ”
"Fluttershy's barbecue skills were naturally learned from that guy in the sea of clouds. Akali said as she laid the ingredients flat on top of a piece of bluestone, raised the Mo Evil Divine Sword, and waved it with a brush, and in an instant, all the ingredients were neatly sliced.
"Beautiful!" both Qingluan and Fluttershy clapp. "How did you get it?"
"It's a small meaning, as long as you kill more people on the battlefield, it will naturally be. Akali smiled and nodded.
"Uh-huh...... the faces of the two men instantly fell.
"By the way, Sister Qingluan, how did you sleep yesterday?" Fluttershy asked quietly with a grin.
"Don't mention it, I haven't slept so badly since I learned to survive in the wild!" Qingluan rubbed his temples weakly. "In the past, you two said that this guy Yunhai was snoring loudly, and I didn't believe it, but now I finally understand it, it's really a crack!"
"Isn't it, do you think we should settle accounts with him?" Akali leaned over and suggested.
"Should!"
The three girls nodded together.
"What should it be, what are you studying?" said Yun Hai from afar. "Come, let me see if breakfast is ready?"
"After unanimous discussions between the three of us, we now have the following decision on you. ”
Akali suddenly became serious and said seriously, and Qingluan and Fluttershy also stood behind her, making Yunhai involuntarily serious.
"What are the instructions, let's talk about it after eating?" Yun Hai looked at the things in the pot with some questions. "I'm almost hungry!"
"Given that you snored too loudly yesterday, it seriously affected the sleep of the three of us, especially Sister Qingluan. ”
Fluttershy picks up the topic and scolds the sea of clouds, and Qingluan nods vigorously and looks at the sea of clouds with resentment.
"Uh, this...... You can't blame me......" Yun Hai already had a hint of foreboding in his heart.
"As the head of today's breakfast, I announce. Qingluan looked like he had a big revenge, and said slowly: "Today's breakfast, there is no share of the sea of clouds!"
As he spoke, the three of them, you look at me, and I look at you, and they all applauded.
"No!" Yunhai was completely dumbfounded, but he didn't expect to snore and lose a breakfast, and he was bitter at the moment. "The three fairy sisters are doing well, the poor and poor little ones are already starving to death, and they will starve to death if they don't eat breakfast......"
"Humph!"
The three of them snorted together, got up and left, and threw the sea of clouds in place.
