Chapter 148: Xianglan Mountain
Moonlit night, west shore of Taihu Lake, Xianglan Mountain.
A death battle in the Valley of Flowers, the fall of the spirit clan, the blue butterfly luckily rescued the frost moon fairy, the two hid in the Luxi River for two days, heard that Bu Nanbei brought the floating snow fairy back to Taihu Lake, hurriedly chased all the way to the east, and finally arrived at the shore of Taihu Lake, two peaks in front of him, towering on the lakeside, looking left and right, the green trees in the valley are verdant, the locals call it the big and small orchid mountain, the mountain is full of tea trees, the tea produced is called white tea, the tea flavor is with chestnut and orchid fragrance, popular in the Taihu Lake area, so these two mountains are also called Xianglan Valley.
The two took advantage of the moonlight to climb to the top of Xianglan Mountain, and saw the different shades of the mountain shadows like ink marks from a distance, the water surface of Taihu Lake was glowing with silver light, the smoke waves were vast, boundless, and they wanted to find the traces of the floating snow fairy, it was really like looking for a needle in a haystack, and the two couldn't help but look at the lake and sigh.
"This Taihu Lake is so big, I don't know where the purple crab monster is hiding, and where is Sister Fuxue?" Frost Moon Xianlang was injured and not healed, his face was pale, and Frost Moon Xiao was pinned to his waist, "It's good to think of a way to explore the reality in the lake, but when we enter the water, it is inconvenient for us to cast spells, and the mana can only be sixty percent of the mana." “
Blue Butterfly rubbed the blue silk satin back and forth in her hand, and said after a while: "Brother Shuangyue, I once entered Taihu Lake with Master and stayed in Zhenze Palace for two nights, and I probably know a little about the situation inside. “
Frost Moon Xianlang hurriedly said: "Is Zhenze Palace the lair of the purple crab monster? Since you know the path, take me into the lake quickly, I have to rescue Sister Fuxue quickly, in case she has three longs and two shorts, how can I explain to Sister Lone Butterfly, and how can I comfort the spirits of Sister Jinhua and Brother Sieve Jin in the sky." “
"Don't worry, Brother Shuangyue, although it is important to save people, but-" Blue Butterfly's hand rubbed back and forth on the silk satin, "This Zhenze Palace is in the depths of the bottomless cold pool under the Taihu Lake, not only is the Taihu Lake full of stones, and there are many mechanisms, but also the lake soldiers guard the pass, and he should have been careful in dealing with things in the north and south, he should have been wary of us a long time ago, we rushed into the water like this, not only can we not save people, but also invite death." “
"So, how is this good?" Frost Moon Fairy Lang pulled out the Frost Moon Flute and held it in his hand.
The two were hesitating, and suddenly heard a bell ringing, and then a low singing voice floated into their ears, listen carefully, the song came from the depths of the valley near the shore of Taihu Lake, endlessly, like silk, the two felt a little puzzled, this place is deserted, not to say, who will still sing on the mountain in the middle of the night? The two jumped down the mountain together without discussion, fell on a big tree under the cliff, leaned on the branches and looked down, only to see that in the valley not far away, the moonlight was like water, sprinkling a piece of clear light, under the white moonlight, dozens of acres of tea trees were lush and lush, the lake breeze was blowing, the branches and leaves were like waves, it was the early winter season, the spring tea was still early, but there were dozens of young girls in the tea bushes carrying bamboo baskets to pick tea, they were all dressed in cyan brocade clothes, they looked like they were only fourteen or fifteen years old, the height was different, or walking slowly among the tea trees, or doing the orchid whirlwind dance on the bushes, and there was a bowl of black drum hanging from the girl's waistBehind them stood an old woman with a fish-tailed face, who was the young lady of the fish, the old fishwoman had a serious face, holding a black leather whip in her hand, constantly urging them to pick tea all the time, and if they were a little slack, the whip fell on them and made a whip sound.
The girls picked tea while gently singing a song, Frost Moon Xianlang knew the rhythm, listened to it for a while, and recognized the song as "Will Enter the Wine", and the lyrics were also very good:
The ancient temple bell is cool, and the world is not seen to fall red.
Crying secretly in the twilight of life, there is a fairy wind in the cold pool of Taihu Lake.
Pick green tea and play fish drums.
Whispering, whirling.
Soaked through the gauze and blue dew, sweating and raining under the moon.
For the descaling of the armor to work hard, do not learn from the East China Sea Bochen to be dust!
Frost Moon Xianlang suddenly realized: "These people are by no means mortals, listening to the song "Will Enter the Wine", it is clear that they are fish monsters seeking truth from immortals, but they are driven by people, picking tea here and being slaves, and they do not forget to take off the scale armor and cultivate their human bodies." “
The steps of the tea picker are sometimes slow, sometimes light, and the song also rises and falls, ethereal in the valley.
"Yes, I heard the senior brother Bu Nanbei said, he likes to drink white tea here, so he has the idea of occupying Taihu Lake, this ghost way to drink tea, and the mortal world, the mortal tea is in early spring, but the ghost road is better in the middle of winter green leaves, because of its extremely heavy yin qi, these people must be the herring slaves who picked tea for him in Taihu Lake. Blue Butterfly put away the blue satin, "Let's mix in with the herring fish slaves and go into Taihu Lake with them to find the floating snow fairy." “
Anyway, the two flew down the tree, under the cover of the shadow of the tree, quietly approached the tea picking team, they have become two tea picking girls, the figure and appearance are no different from them, also carrying a bamboo basket, picking tea slow song, first followed at the end of the team, after a while, they walked together, did not attract anyone's attention, it turned out that these herring fish slaves were new to adulthood, not good at memory, seeing that the appearance of the two was no different from them, they were not wary at all, the young lady only urged them to pick tea, and did not find two more uninvited guests.
The singing of the herring slave gradually stopped, the crescent moon drooped in the west, seeing that the eastern dawn was approaching, the young lady waved the whip in her hand, "Girls, it's almost dawn, we should go back!"
The herring slave stopped the work in his hand, followed behind the green lady one after another, and walked towards the shore of Taihu Lake, to the shore, the water was vast, the tide was surging, the frost moon fairy lang and the blue butterfly were mixed in the crowd, and they didn't know how they wanted to enter the water, and the green lady threw the whip, where the whip fell into the water, like cutting tofu to cut a gap, the herring slave jumped in turn, and the two of them also jumped in boldly, after the last Qing Niang entered, the gap on the lake closed as before, and the waves rolled again.
Green Sky Temple.
"Godmother, I haven't seen you for a few days, I see that you have lost a lot of weight, what are your concerns, can you let your daughter share it for you?" Shengyu stood on the bed and saluted, and the banana tail lady was half lying and half sitting, lazy as a sheep.
"Good daughter, I'm just a little tired for my mother, when it comes to my heart, do you have anything to tell my mother?"
"Godmother, I have been dead for thousands of years, and the reason why I have not entered reincarnation is only because I have a relationship with Pan Lang, and now he is a human being for ten lifetimes, and I am separated from him by yin and yang-" Tears rolled in his eyes at first, and finally rolled down Shengyu's cheeks, drawing two bright tear stains, "Do I see him or not?"
"Silly daughter, you've been waiting for so many years, don't you just want to see him?"
"However, after all, he has a hatred with me for killing my father, for my family and for my country, and if I meet him, I will definitely take his life. ”
"The fate of the world is really boundless, but the past has long passed, you can't let go of the fear of that relationship, why bother to be cocooned, it is better to end this bad fate, and forget each other in the rivers and lakes. ”
Shengyu's hand stopped, and his eyes became hollow, "A thousand years of grievances, can you really forget each other in the rivers and lakes?"
"You are also a ghost and a demon now, if you don't suffer from the curse of heaven, you can also secretly settle in the Three Realms and settle at ease, why bother because he committed a killing ring, if you are a mother, think about it. ”
"My daughter knows that my godmother is taught. Shengyu continued to serve, bowing his head and saying nothing. Love Net
"That step north and south the day before yesterday in the Valley of Hundred Flowers, ruined the cultivation of many spirits, I think he should be added sooner or later, you have to do it yourself, don't go with him. ”
Shengyu nodded in agreement.
Jiaowei Niangniang sat up, looked at her goddaughter's handsome appearance, felt a little regretful, and finally said: "There is one more thing for my mother, recently a young man named Shi will appear in Taihu Lake, for my mother is entrusted by his master Wu Toad, to protect him, you pay attention to your mother." ”
The godmother instructed, and the daughter should do her best to do so. ”
The Palace of the Hidden Sea.
"Fairy, Princess Katsuyu has arrived. The young lady who led the way in front led the way into the door and saluted the snow fairy.
"Ask her to meet. The floating snow fairy has been equipped with tea to treat her, she is wearing a white purple-edged brocade dress today, with a crested golden hairpin on her head, eyebrows and lips, and a graceful and luxurious demeanor.
Princess Shengyu entered the door, she was dressed in a cyan da, wearing a pink women's dress, and wearing a gold-inlaid jade hibiscus wreath between her necks, shining brightly.
When the two saw each other, they looked at each other and had an inexplicable sense of pity for each other.
"Thanks to the invitation of the fairy, Shengyu is polite. The guest gave a salute first, and the floating snow fairy hurriedly returned the salute, "Princess Shengyu, please sit down, I have heard the name of Princess Shengyu of Taihu Lake for a long time, and I took the liberty to invite me to see her, and I also looked at Haihan." “
"Where did the fairy say, you are a guest of Taihu Lake, I should welcome you, I am late today, and I ask the fairy to forgive my sins." “
The Floating Snow Fairy ordered the fish woman to look at the tea, and she also picked up the teacup, "Tang suddenly asked, what kind of princess body does it belong to in the ghost path?"
"Don't hide it from the fairy, I have been a human demon who has cultivated for thousands of years. Princess Katsuyu's face was as pale as paper, and there was no change. "Humans and demons are the evil species abandoned by reincarnation, they are disgusted by the Three Realms, and they suffer from the qi of the Yin every day, once the five thunder tribulations fall, they will be wiped out at any time, they can't compare to the spirit body of the spirit, there is a little elixir in the body, it only takes some effort, take off the skin, and fly to the heavens, it is easy. “
The Floating Snow Fairy nodded and said: "That being said, only the spirits in the ghost path are not bloodthirsty, so the people of the Cai clan are scattered, and the power is the weakest, they covet our elixir to enhance the Dao, and I am just a prisoner in the north and south, I heard the name of the princess, and wanted to meet the princess before I died, and I died without regrets." ”
When Princess Shengyu heard this, she said lightly: "The matter of the Valley of Hundred Flowers, I also know that it is difficult for the righteous brother to convince the public, but the fairy should also know that in the ghost road, the strong bully the weak, the tyrannical widows, since ancient times, the Golden Flower Lady is fair and fair, for the benefit of one party, it is a pity to suffer from this great disaster, but the matter has come to this point, the fairy should judge the situation and save his life." ”
The Floating Snow Fairy asked, "According to the princess, how can I save my life?"
"My brother-in-law, although he acted a little recklessly, but he is also a tyrant in the ghost road, the day before yesterday in the Valley of Hundred Flowers, the fairy must have seen his overlord roar, even if your sister Jinhua fights with all her might, he may not be able to win him, now he has a deep love for you, and intends to marry you as a wife, if he is the father-in-law, the fairy not only survives without worry, but also can continue to carry forward the legacy of the Golden Flower Lady, and do good deeds and self-cultivation in Taihu Lake. ”
"He killed Sister Jinhua and Brother Siejin, and you still want me to marry him as a wife?" said the Floating Snow Fairy in a daze, I must not marry him.
Shengyu sighed and said, "It's human nature for a fairy to be difficult to accept for a while, I'm just saying what I mean from my heart, and the fairy should consider it." ”
The two of them were speechless, silently drank a cup of tea, the tea of the ghost road, not boiled or fried, only soaked in water, cool and refreshing, Qingniang poured it full for the two of them, she saw that Princess Shengyu was going to run for nothing, not only was she a little disappointed in her heart, who knew that the next words of the floating snow fairy made her overjoyed.
"Come on, it's come to this, I may be destined to marry him. "The snow fairy threw the teacup on the ground, and the teacup fell on the carpet with a muffled sound, and I could only do so for revenge.
"Then Shengyu will congratulate the fairy and the righteous brother first. Shengyu glanced at Qing Niang, and Qing Niang's fish tail swayed proudly a few times.
The Floating Snow Fairy stood up and turned her back to the two, "If you want me to marry Bu Nanbei, he must promise me three conditions, otherwise, I will not marry!"
"Don't hide it, when I came, Brother Yi had already confessed, if the fairy asked, as long as he didn't let him violate the morality of the rivers and lakes, he could agree. "Princess Shengyu is also prepared.
The Floating Snow Fairy let out a sneer, "He should be afraid that I will ask him to kill the wasp with his own hands to take revenge, don't worry, I won't be so shameless, my first condition is that on the day of marriage, I want the wasp to come to congratulate and toast three glasses to me in person." ”
"They are originally from the same family, and they are in harmony with reason, this is naturally possible, but what about the second condition?"
"I want him to promise me that if I hadn't killed the wasp on the wedding day, he wouldn't be able to help out the siege, and the wasp had done a lot of evil, and it was natural for others to take revenge, and he couldn't help the abuse. ”
Shengyu secretly thought, who would dare to kill the wasp in the Taihu Lake? This is almost impossible, so he agreed to the floating snow fairy, and asked, "What is the last condition?" ”
"I was originally a winter plum, with the guidance of Sister Jinhua to cultivate the spirit of the day, I want to repay her great kindness, on the day of the wedding, Bu Nanbei will drum the cold wind for me, rain heavy snow, freeze Taihu Lake, ingest the blood of 100 people, in order to pay tribute to Sister Jinhua!"
"This is the easiest to do, borrowing the wind and snow, it is the righteous brother's housekeeping skills, as for the blood and food of hundreds of people, although this move violates the rules of heaven, the righteous brother is not afraid, the fairy is waiting for the wind and snow night, on the Taihu Lake, red makeup and high candles to welcome the newlywed!" Shengyu said confidently, although she did not approve of the blood food of a hundred people, she was helpless, only a hundred people, in the ghost road is just a small blood sacrifice, the floating snow fairy turned around, her eyes were staring at Shengyu, and you said: "I have one more thing to ask the princess to help." “
"Oh, fairy, but it doesn't hurt to speak. Shengyu was no longer afraid of her asking too much, but the Floating Snow Fairy motioned for her to come up with her ear, and after whispering a few words to her, Shengyu instinctively took a step back, taken aback, she couldn't believe her ears, and confirmed with her eyes that they intended to avoid the surveillance of Qingniang, the Floating Snow Fairy nodded secretly, Princess Shengyu straightened her clothes, and said in a low voice: "Fairy rest assured, on the day of the wedding, I will definitely be there and give you a big gift with my own hands." “
