Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Snake Plague
One hundred and twenty miles to the south of Sanwei Mountain, there is a spiritual mountain called Daxian, I read the "Chronicles of the Six Realms" in the library of Yaochi Province, this ancient book records that Daxian Mountain is rich in spiritual snakes, the mountain is square, the mountain peaks are majestic and steep, and people can never climb up.
Rong He and I only stayed for one night in Sanwei Mountain, and he told me that in the past few hundred years, people have prospered along the Sanwei Mountain, and towns have risen along this mountain range to the bottom of Daxian Mountain.
Although I also went down to earth with Rong He last time, I have not seen what this mortal realm is like, Rong He knows that I am curious, so he wants to take me to travel.
We came out of the bamboo forest and set off to go down the mountain, the Sanwei Mountain is very high, Rong He took me but in the blink of an eye to the bottom of the mountain, I was pleasantly surprised to find that the stream in the thatched hut actually flowed all the way to the bottom of the mountain, far away from us there were a few women on the edge of the stream.
Seeing that there were people not far from the bottom of this mountain, there were also a few strong men carrying two buckets to carry water home to drink, they picked up water a little upstream, and returned home satisfied, the stream was not deep, and even a few children stepped into the water barefoot, and had a lot of fun.
I've only seen the life in this book, but now I feel that I have taken a step forward, as if I have lived a fireworks life, and I yearn for it.
Rong He told me that he wanted to change into this worldly dress, so he nodded my head gently, and I saw the light flowing, and in an instant the green shirt on my body was changed into a dress woven of plain silk, and even the hair bun became very simple.
I looked up again, Rong He also faded the cold white clothes, wearing a blue robe, I always feel too beautiful when I look at him on weekdays, so that there is a sense of unreality, except for the court meeting, Rong He's casual clothes are always mostly white, now a blue robe, less cold, more handsome, I am very satisfied.
It was only here that the hundred birds that had been drawn away by my cry, and as soon as we had changed our clothes, the hundred or so birds cried and dispersed, and for a time the sound of the birds mingled with the flapping of their wings, and attracted the eyes of those who lingered by the stream.
I didn't know how to react for a while, but Rong He was very normal, took my hand and left.
Rong He has also been in this mortal dust for the first time in these two thousand years, and we gradually walked to many places, wanting to inquire about how to enter the city, because of the movement of the birds dispersing, these people basically watched us go all the way down. I wanted to find someone to ask for directions, but those children came up and asked me curiously, is it a fairy?
I didn't know how to react for a moment, but Rong He smiled and pulled me back and asked the children for directions.
The children chattered and talked about each other, and I pieced together from their childish words, and the entrance to the town was about two miles to the south.
Rong He smiled and said goodbye to them, although I was a little timid, but before leaving, I took out a few candied fruits from my small bag for a long time.
When I got to no one, Rong He laughed at me: "It turns out that there is also a place where you little young bird can't eat." ”
I'm a little unconvinced, I haven't seen mortals before, in the books I read before, although they are stories of talented and beautiful women, but there are a lot of wind and moon and tricks written there, my impression of mortals is that in order to court, it seems that they will do something touching, or terrible things.
Besides, those children just now could tell at a glance that I was a fairy, and I didn't know how to react to it or not!
Rong He said to me: "Ah Yu, in fact, they may mean that you are good-looking?"
Originally, I was a little angry, but I didn't get angry for a moment when I heard this, Rong He is much older than me, what he said must be right! Then I smiled and said to Rong He: "Rong Hexian, I also think you are very good-looking." ”
Although I always thought that Rong He was the best-looking immortal in the Six Realms, it seemed that I had never told him. He didn't want me to say it so bluntly, and he blushed a little and coughed unnaturally.
I was a little puzzled, and said to him: "Rong Hexian, there's nothing to be embarrassed about, it's not your fault that you are good-looking, or is it a great benefit to you!"
We walked and talked at the same time, and the road was bustling with people, and after a while, we saw a city tower, and looked up to see that the city tower was written on it: Yi Cheng.
When I asked the children for directions, they said that there would be a fireworks display in the city tonight, and that it was not a festival or a festival, and that I was glad that there was a lively scene to see.
When Si Ming sent me the book of words at the bottom of the box before, he said that it was to help me chase Rong He, so that I could learn the bridge between the young lady and the son, this Fengyue thing, it is nothing more than the first time I met under the moon, and it was best to have a fireworks assist, although I don't know what fireworks are, I just want to learn and ask for advice today.
We found a restaurant in the city to sit down, waiting to see the fireworks at night, seeing that I was greedy, Rong He ordered a table of food in this Yicheng, I took a bite to eat, but I felt mediocre, only this tea made me feel a little interesting, the little two of this restaurant said that this tea is a unique white tea in Yicheng, the color of the tea soup is clear, the taste is very light, but after drinking, the lips and teeth are fragrant.
It's the first time I've tasted this mortal tea, but I don't know when I feel like I've drunk it once, and I'm a little strange. It was only noon, and suddenly there were many more people on the streets, and from the gate in the south of the city, a large number of mortals suddenly poured in, looking at all the embarrassed looks, some of them were still in rags, as if they had not eaten for a long time.
Rong He and I took a look and listened carefully, and learned from the mouths of the mortals who poured into the city that the town under the Great Xian Mountain was suddenly plagued by snakes, and a few days ago, thousands of poisonous snakes silently poured into the city, biting people when they saw them, and the threshold of the medical hall in the city was worn out.
Who knew that this person was not cured, but the snakes came in an endless stream, countless dead and wounded, and the rest of the people fled, and the town suddenly became a dead city, and the fleeing people fled to Yicheng along the hundred miles of mountains, and for a time there were more and more people on the streets, and they were crowded.
I was a little surprised for a while, this Daxian Mountain is rich in spirit snakes, but I didn't expect that the spiritual creatures would also make trouble, raised his eyes to look at Rong He, he said to me: "Today's fireworks can't be seen, Ah Yan, let's go to this Daxian Mountain to see what is causing trouble." ”
I nodded, it should be like this, my Rong He is the Heavenly Emperor Sovereign, he has the Six Realms in his heart, how can he ignore the safety of the common people because of his little love with me.
Yes, Rong He waved his hand, and the time around him seemed to freeze, and he left the meal money on the table, leading me into a beam of light and leaving.
After we left, this frozen time flowed instantly, and Xiao Er, who was still talking to us about this tea, was a little confused, I don't know why these two people disappeared for a while, but when they saw the lot of money on the table, they happily held it.
