After Chu Xunyu told Mu Yuan these stories, the three of them have stepped into the range of Bashu, surrounded by vast mountains, you come and I are mostly Han people, a few famous ethnic groups are gradually few, Mu Yuan looked left and right, overjoyed, looked at the torn cloth shoes on the soles of his feet and said: "This road is far from the mountains, we enter the desert in the summer, after a few months, it is now late autumn, wear out a few pairs of good shoes, and finally come to Shudi, if it is not for the wild Langzhong to tell us war stories, it is really boring." ”

"War is not for your pastime. The forgetful element immediately criticized him, "You have to be honest and fearful, as soon as the war starts, the world is turbulent, and there will be no more peace." ”

"Well, got it. Mu Yuan put away his usual hippie smiling expression and replied seriously, "What the predecessors taught is that sometimes when I think about it, it may not be a good thing that our Buddhist disciples do not participate in wars. ”

The mountain road is winding, all sides are full of trees, because late autumn has arrived, the weather is cold, the trees are full of golden autumn color, a yellow and bright scenery, although a little bleak, but it is also a good scenery, the three of them came in from the desert all the way, how have they ever seen such a beautiful scenery, the moment is overjoyed, walking on one of the slightly large-scale dirt roads, look at the surrounding vast mountains, at a glance can not see the end of the sky, the mountains of Shudi, not only high, but also extremely steep, all of them are like knives and axes, standing between heaven and earth, looking at Mu Yuanzhi sighing ghostly workmanship, the three of them bow their heads from time to time to evaluate the flowing water of the mountain stream, the sound of the stream flowing in their ears, but also happy。

Seeing that it was getting late, Mu Yuan raised his eyes and looked around, faintly saw a house in the depths of the mountain stream, which seemed to be the color of a farmer's house, and said happily at the moment: "There seems to be a village in front, let's go and stay overnight, so as to pass a meal." ”

Forget Chen and Chu Xunyu couldn't help but laugh, and were about to speak, when they suddenly found that there were two hunters walking out of the corner in front of them, one tall and one short, carrying prey in their hands, carrying a bow and crossbow around their waists, and bags hanging on their shoulders.

So Chu Xunyu got down from the horse and said hello: "The two eldest brothers stay, we are passing through here, and I hope to ask you where to go." ”

"Well said, well said. The tall Orion replied aloud, "What does the little brother want to ask, just ask." ”

Forget Chen and Mu Yuan also dismounted to say hello, and Chu Xunyu asked, "Where is this place, and how long is it until Maoxian?"

"It's not far off. The short hunter pointed to the mountains over there with his hand, "Little brother just go all the way, this mountain is called 'Minshan', over this mountain is not far from Maoxian, and then there is water in front of it, called 'Minjiang', which leads directly to Dujiangyan." ”

"Very good. Chu Xunyu nodded happily, and then pointed to the village that Mu Yuan saw just now and asked, "The two eldest brothers are not early, we want to stay, passing by here, I saw a village not far in front of us, what is that place?"

"There?" the two Orions looked at each other, and the tall Orion said smugly, "It's not a good place to do it, so it's better not to go over and cause trouble in vain." ”

"What?" Mu Yuan asked curiously, and was particularly interested when he heard this kind of thing, "Is there a wicked person making trouble?"

"Not really. The short hunter replied, "So that the three of them know, Shuzhong since ancient times, this is before, but after the founding of the Ming Dynasty, sent troops to suppress bandits many times, no one has long been left in the grass, at most there are only some thieves and thieves left, and it is not a climate, and the village that this little brother guided, called 'Ye Village', as early as five years ago, there were some incidents, and the government moved the villagers to other counties, and they were no longer inhabited, and they have been abandoned so far, so it is better not to pass. ”

The more Mu Yuan listened, the more he tasted, and asked happily: "Oh, what's the matter?" ”

The hunters told Chu Xunyu that Bashu has the most mountains since ancient times, and the mountains must be buried deeply, so five or six years ago, a copper mine was found in this place, so the government hired people to vigorously mine, the scale is not small, there are three or four hundred people, divided into four groups, each group of 100 or so people, stationed here in four seasons day and night mining, every season to mine people will be arranged by their families, over time, the village is formed, because it is the name of mining and smelting, so the local people call it "smelting village". Three years ago, for some reason, the families of the miners in the village began to die suddenly one after another, all of them in different circumstances, but all of them were broken corpses, with broken facial features. The limbs are split, the people are talking about it, there are different opinions, some people say that it is a disease, some people say that it is alarmed by the grandfather of the mountain god, and some people say that it is a vendetta, for a time the people's hearts are in turmoil, the yamen has investigated several times to no avail, and the miners are not willing to continue mining here, the government has to give up this place, and all the families of the miners are relocated to Mao County, the village began to be deserted, after the desertion, some people lied that after entering the village at night, they could see the unjust souls of the miners' families crying at night, so the local people did not dare to go in.

Mu Yuan, who listened to these words, was an eighty-year-old urine--old problem again, and his heart was overjoyed, and he secretly said that either there were unjust souls or spirits formed, relying on his own Buddhist methods, and the "Diamond Sutra" in his hand, which evil demon dared to commit it? At the moment, he could no longer hold back his heart, but on the surface, he still did not move, thanked the two hunters, and after rushing away in a decent manner, Chu Xunyu turned his head and asked: "Bajie, what do you want to do? It is estimated that there will be an accident out of thin air." ”

"Yelangzhong, the people have suffered from unjustified disasters, how can you ignore them?" Mu Yuan's old god refuted Chu Xunyu, "You are a cultivator, and you don't even know how to help the common people, the village in front of you, judging from the experience of the little monk 'for many years' in killing demons and eliminating demons, there must be demons to haunt you, look at the poor monk's methods." After saying that, he rode his horse and ran away.

Chu Xunyu shook his head helplessly, turned around and asked Wangchen: "What do you think of the seniors?"

Wangchen frowned and looked at the village from a mountain in the distance, there seemed to be only a black shadow, Wangchen was slightly silent, and then said: "Look over there, the mountains seem to be open to the gods, the roots and jade fingers are soaring to the sky, the fingers are connected to the mountains, and the fingers are all 'blocking places'." ”

Chu Xunyu knows the meaning of forgetting the dust, which means that there is a "place to block breath", the so-called "blocked breath", which is the meaning of Taoist culture to refer to the impassability of the rhyme, and if the rhyme is not passed, it will be difficult, and if it is sleepy, it will be difficult, which is the origin of "difficulty". This is not only used in feng shui, art, military, architecture, etc. are the same, such as painting and writing, which can best reflect the charm of the painter, the words of the east slope are bold, and the majestic color is revealed, which makes people look up to the mountains and admire them; the words of the right army are fit, like a swimming dragon, pleasing to the eye; when painting, whether it is a landscape or flowers and birds, it must be left blank, which is for "ventilation", so that the picture looks vivid and lively.

Therefore, the root of all things in the world is in the rhyme, the mountains are like a barrier, blocking the breath of the village, lifeless and stagnant, for a long time, it will inevitably breed evil things, these are just some fools and fools who are mortal with the naked eye and choose a site to establish a village, of course, they will not pay attention to these, if they are replaced by Chu Xunyu to choose a site, they will definitely choose a place of ventilation and rhyme, so as to make people feel refreshed and happy.

Looking at the appearance in front of them, Chu Xunyu and Wangchen glanced at each other, and said secretly, let's go and take a look......
