Chapter 21: Huang Ying Niangniang

The next morning, the heavy snow had stopped, a round of red sun hung high in the sky, and thousands of fluffy golden rays gradually swept away the morning fog after the snow. Wu Zhen and Fan Yumei simply packed up some food, and after everyone ate hastily, they wanted to leave for Fusheng Lane in Yizhou City to see Mr. Sick Mei.

Zhao Chenghuang pulled Wu Zhen and said, I am the righteous god of the netherworld, and I can't leave my post without permission, although I really want to be with my brother. The sincere words made Wu Zhen very moved, although they didn't get along for a long time, they made Wu Zhen feel that although Zhao Chenghuang had an irritable temper and low mana, he was a big brother who was really worth dating. The future is bumpy, I don't know how many dangers are waiting for him, but Zhao Chenghuang is willing to break through with him, which shows his sincerity and true temperament.

The Five Dragons Daoist also stepped forward and said goodbye to everyone, saying, I live in this deep pool, and I usually take dragon raising games as my business, and I have been abandoned for a long time. I didn't expect that this time the Qilin Emperor only sent the left and right Qilin envoys, so it was so difficult for us to parry, and the master didn't know what kind of calamity he suffered when he saved the suffering Tianzun, and I didn't know where he was now, as his disciple, I only had to work hard to cultivate and find out the whereabouts of the master. Therefore, I won't rush to Yizhou Fusheng Lane with everyone. I hope you will be careful and take care of yourself. Just because, the Qilin Emperor will definitely refuse to give up, and will definitely send more difficult opponents to deal with.

Everyone said goodbye in the sunshine, said goodbye, the five dragons stood on the top of the red dragon, the five dragons dived into the deep pool, but saw the deep pool steaming with white gas.

Wu Zhen, Fan Yumei, Prince Xiaolong, Leng Chunqiu, Liu Chengyin, and the second-hand Taoist said goodbye to the City God Temple, walked on the mountain road after the snow, stepped on the snow, and only heard the creaking sound, but the road was not slippery, just because the snow had not yet melted and frozen.

When walking, there is a tall poplar tree next to the avenue in the distance, strange to say, it is already in the middle of winter, but this big tree has full of green leaves, which makes Wu Zhen very surprised.

Second-hand Taoism, this tree does not wither in winter, there must be something strange?

Xiaolong Prince Ao Bodao, he has never seen pine trees and cypress trees that can resist freezing, didn't the master say that he would wither after the cold and then know that the pine and cypress withered. Unexpectedly, in this plain land, there is an evergreen poplar.

Wu Zhen also said, what my cousin said is that since I wandered, I have been running around all over the world, and I have also lived in monasteries and Taoist temples, and I have never seen such strange things.

Leng Chunqiu, dressed in black, stood on the snowy earth, just looked at the poplar tree in a daze, and suddenly said in a hoarse voice, I'm afraid this is not a good thing? I have also passed by this place many times, this tree is a long sight, as for its ability to not wither after the snow, it is indeed the first time I have seen it.

Suddenly, several electric cars came running from a distant village, and there were not only sturdy young men, but also white-haired aunts, three or five-year-old children, and girls wrapped in red down jackets. They parked the car under the poplar tree, but took out candles and paper money from the pockets of the car, lit them with lighters, and burned them under the poplar trees. Pray while burning, and ask for the blessing of the tree god Grandpa.

One of them was a lean old lady, neat and clean, with yellow eyes. She instructed everyone to burn paper, and said that since the beginning of winter this year, there has not been a heavy snowfall, and last night suddenly fell heavy snow, and the plains were depressed. It is He who blesses us and gives us a good harvest in the coming year.

The people who burned the paper all said yes.

Prince Xiaolong watched them burn paper and incense, as if it was a farce, and grinned, things are abnormal and are demons. Where are the gods. Just as they were about to say more, the crowd was already glaring angrily, and some even rolled up their sleeves and rushed forward to fight.

Wu Zhen hurriedly apologized, saying that his cousin was reckless, and he was still a student. Prince Xiaolong was very unconvinced.

Those people saw that Wu Zhen and his party were dressed very shabby, and they probably felt in their hearts that they didn't have to be more serious with people like flowers, so they put down their sleeves and continued to burn incense and paper.

Wu Zhen and his entourage walked away, but they heard a voice from the tree saying, "If you worship me, you must have something to ask for me." I just don't know if you're sincere. I'm not a tree god, I'm Huang Yingniang. From today on, as long as the Huangying Niangniang Temple is built here, I will bless this place with good weather and all wishes. The voice is sharp and very uncomfortable.

But the crowd bowed down and bowed their heads. The leafy aspen stands tall, and a large bird is high on the branch, with a gray-yellow back, gray-white belly, and black feathers on its tail, which is a yellow warbler.

Second-hand Taoism is humane, what Prince Xiaolong said is right, things are abnormal and are demons. is obviously a yellow warbler into a spirit, but he is falsely called a god, and he has to receive incense from the world. It seems that this place has not been peaceful since then.

Wu Zhen asked, since it is a yellow warbler, why can the aspen not wither in winter, and it is still full of green leaves?

The yellow warbler is a bird, cultivating for 500 years, and all the trees that fall do not wither in winter, and it is clear in the "Lu's Miscellaneous Sayings" that I have seen this bird, and the cultivation is more than 500 years.

Why?

Second-hand Taoist, Dao, I see that her form has grown up, can speak human language, I don't know if she can transform into a human body, if she transforms into a human body, there will be a catastrophe here.

Fan Yumei said, isn't the yellow warbler the yellow bird, the cry is crisp and pleasant, and it is the most beautiful. Why did the Taoist say that she would bring bad luck?

Have you ever heard the poem "Spring Resentment", beating the yellow warbler, and crying on the branches of Mojiao. When crying, the concubine dreamed, and did not get Liaoxi. When I heard that this bird would think of the resentful woman, there was another meaning, but it was just a guess, and I don't know if it was as I thought.

Prince Xiaolong said, let's hurry to Fusheng Lane in Yizhou City, and the matter of Huangying Niangniang Temple will be talked about later.

Leng Chunqiu said, exactly, it is a big deal to exchange the talent for the Spring and Autumn Liangyi Sword.

Wu Zhen originally wanted to see and listen more to Huang Ying's mother, so as to teach the people not to be deceived. First, it is a big matter to learn the Spring and Autumn Two Rites of Sword, so I will let it go. When I looked back, I saw that everyone was still burning incense and paper. Several more electric cars arrived, and there were many large areas of kneeling under the trees, and the snow had turned to gray-black snow. The big bird was high in the tree, but he didn't speak. It's just that from time to time, his eyes glance over and collide with Wu Zhen's eyes.

Yizhou City is an ancient city, in 2000, it was just an ordinary small county town. The cross runs through two main streets, and it takes only twenty minutes to walk through one main street. So Fusheng Lane is very easy to find.

Entering Fusheng Alley, knocking on the courtyard door, it was the boy who came out. When everyone entered the house, the second-hand Taoist saw several paintings on the wall that were very attractive. It is not a traditional Chinese landscape, but a few masterpieces of Russia.

The second-hand Taoist was very strange, so he asked, "Why is it a Russian painting that the gentleman claims to be a sick plum?"

Wu Zhen also looked carefully, and it turned out that the walls were indeed Alexander Povlovich's "Village", E. Karaneev's "Expedition", Irinykh's "Baikal", Repin's "Portrait of Montel" and "Haystack", Sakalov's "Field", and Chuvin's "Neva Bank". Although he didn't know much about oil painting, he was deeply moved by the paintings, and the poetry, struggle, and suffering in Russian oil paintings were also deeply in line with Wu Zhen's heart.

Mr. Sick Mei said, I look at Chinese paintings, there are often idlers in the landscape, most of them are the hermits that the painter thinks in his heart, but rarely see farmers and merchants, the paintings blur the light, but they are not a portrayal of the real thing, but only a display of the hills and valleys in the heart. Oil paintings, on the other hand, are created into the world, but they have a feeling of being close to the heart. Let's not talk about oil painting, let's talk about the talent fight first.

Leng Chunqiu said, it's easy to fight for talents, Mr. only needs to promise us one condition?

What conditions?

Passed the Liangyi swordsmanship to Wu Zhen.

Master, no. The boy stretched out his hand to stop it.

Pass on that you can, Mr. Sick Mei looked at Wu Zhen, and you only need to promise me one condition.

What are the conditions? The questioner was indeed Wu Zhen.

It's very simple, climb the virtual name ladder, pass through Yiguandu, and enter the Khan Qing Building.

Has anyone ever been to Khan Qing Lou before?

No.

Is it dangerous?

A narrow escape.

Prince Xiaolong said, don't talk nonsense with him, tie him up first, see if he passes it on, and if he says it, he will do it.
