Five hundred and one The legend of the Fallen Soul Cliff

When Wu Zheng politely declined Uncle Chen Liang's warm invitation to stay for dinner and left, an incredible thing was added to his heart, which was already full of doubts about the Dongshan Covenant in Lin'an City. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

From Uncle Chen Liang's mouth, Wu Zheng learned that the reason why their family had the ability to build a new house was that the money they used was actually sent by themselves. And it was sent under the banner of the King of Freedom and for reasons of gratitude. Although the number is not much, it is not a lot for a remote mountain village like Xiangshuiwan, which is five hundred taels of silver. So much so that Chen Min's marriage was all about half of the money left, and according to Uncle Chen Liang's meaning, even the coffin board money of their old husband and wife was enough.

"Who will be helping Uncle Chen Liang's family under his own banner?"

The key is what this person in the dark did, and he didn't want Wu Zheng to know at all. If it weren't for accompanying Yun Lan back by chance this time, I'm afraid I wouldn't have known about it for the rest of my life. In this regard, Wu Zheng was puzzled.

After carefully combing through all the people he could think of in his heart, Wu Zheng was stunned and did not find a suspicious object that could do so.

The methods of this secret person reminded Wu Zheng of the mystery of the Dark God Organization for a while.

What has been haunting Wu Zheng's heart for a while is all the scene that happened to the Slender Venerable Gu Qi when he went to Lin'an City's Dongshan appointment

At that time, he only cared about the body of the Thin Venerable Gu Qi who disappeared in an instant, and later Wu Zheng realized why the Thin Venerable Gu Qi did not have the slightest intention of fighting with him? Although it is not clear what the status of the so-called Venerable is in the Dark God Organization, it can be speculated according to common sense that it should be on a par with the Dharma Protector. From the speed and body of the Slender Venerable Gu Qi to the top of the mountain, Wu Zheng could also judge that the other party's skills should be quite good.

The more he thought about it, the harder it was for Wu Zheng to guess why Gu Qi didn't even have the slightest intention of making a move, but turned around and ran away.

Wu Zheng, who was thinking about his thoughts, unconsciously returned to Yun Lan's home.

As soon as he entered the door and saw the smiles on the faces of the four Yun Feng who greeted him, Wu Zheng immediately understood, they must have known the purpose of Yun Lan's return this time. Because he didn't let his father Xiao Ying come to deliver the decree, the emperor's marriage decree was left in Wu Zheng's hands, and Wu Zheng had already handed it over to Yun Lan on the way here. Needless to ask, Yun Lan must have already shown the holy decree to her mother and four brothers and sisters-in-law.

"Brother-in-law, please take a seat. ”

Yun Feng even called out his "brother-in-law", and Wu Zheng could no longer pretend. Hurriedly walked to Yun Lan's mother and knelt down, bowed as a new son-in-law, and got up to meet Yun Feng's four brothers and Yun Lan's four sisters-in-law again, and then sat down in a proper manner.

And Yun Lan and Gu Rou were not present, I don't know if they were busy in the kitchen, or they were embarrassed to come forward and hide in the room.

"I heard from my sister that my brother-in-law bought the wedding house in Lin'an Mansion, and the road is so far away, I don't know how to welcome the relatives then?"

Yun Feng's question obviously represented the meaning of the whole family. It's just a straightforward question, which makes Wu Zheng a little embarrassed.

"It's a bit far away, but if my mother-in-law goes with my brothers and sisters-in-law, I'll arrange for someone to escort you in advance. ”

"My mother is old, and I don't know if she will be able to support the long journey by then, can we discuss this matter?"

"The eldest brother laughed, we naturally have to follow the wishes of our mother-in-law and my brothers and sisters-in-law. ”

"That's fine, brother-in-law, please take a seat. ”

This time the identity was made public, but the atmosphere was not as harmonious as before. Not only Wu Zheng, but even Yun Feng and others were a little restrained.

It was still divided into two tables, and Yun Lan's four elder brothers and several older nephews accompanied Wu Zheng, just filling one table. Yun Lan, Gu Rou, four sisters-in-law and a few nieces accompanied the old mother to another table next door.

The initial restraint did not last long, and as everyone talked about the marriage of the two from time to time, the atmosphere gradually became lively again.

Wu Zheng also understood, except for Yun Feng who was worried that their mother would not be able to walk that far, the rest of Yun Lan's nephews and nieces present still hoped to go out to see the world, including Yun Lan's four sisters-in-law, who were also a little tempted.

However, he didn't come up with an accurate idea that night, and after the banquet was over, Yun Lan personally sent Wu Zheng to the room prepared for him, and at the same time settled Gu Rou in the next room, and then turned around and continued to discuss his marriage with his family.

Lying crookedly on the bed for a while, Wu Zheng, who was troubled by many problems that lingered in his heart, also had no intention of cultivating. Seeing that there were a lot of ancient books on the bookshelf opposite the bed, I stood up and looked at them. In addition to medical books, Wu Zheng inadvertently turned to a booklet introducing the customs and customs of various parts of the world. The handwriting does not look like a printed matter, but rather looks like it was written intermittently in small letters with a small handpen at different times.

Curious, Wu Zheng flipped through it from the beginning.

After reading a few pages, Wu Zheng already understood that this seemingly inconspicuous booklet should record what Yun Lan's ancestor, the so-called Yun Ziri Qinggong Gonggong, saw and heard when he practiced medicine more than 130 years ago. It is conceivable that it must also be Yun Ziri's handwriting.

Flipping through the pages, it is nothing more than about where and what patients were met, how they were treated, what special customs and habits were in the local area, and so on.

The booklet is not thick, a total of one hundred and ten pages, and it didn't take much effort for Wu Zheng to turn to the last page.

"The legend of the Fallen Soul Cliff. ”

When he saw these words on the last page, Wu Zheng didn't think much about it. However, when he read it word by word, the more he read, the more surprised he became, until he read such a few paragraphs, Wu Zheng's hand holding the booklet trembled a little.

"According to local people, the location of the Falling Soul Cliff was not originally like this, but a steep peak, dozens of feet higher than the main peak in the north of the village. Legend has it that one night in ancient times, a meteorite suddenly fell from the sky, flattening the entire mountain peak, leaving a huge crater. And the mountain village built next to the mountain was also razed to the ground, and no one in the village was spared.

Today's mountain village is a home rebuilt by the giant pit after the descendants of the village who had escaped the catastrophe returned to the village.

Later generations found that whenever the flood in the giant pit was surging, some crystal clear fine stones would always be washed out with the current, and they would shine in the dark night, and the halo it emitted would be like ripples in the water, layer by layer.

Especially in the cliff in the west of the village, that is, in the cliff of today's Falling Soul Cliff, in the dead of night, there will always be a mournful sound like a woman crying. Therefore, there is gradually a false rumor that the cliff sucks people's souls, so it is called the soul cliff by the villagers.

In the old age, there is no way to verify the theory of falling stars, and the sound of crying in the cliff is no longer heard, but after the rain, there are crystal clear pebbles overflowing in the Xiangshui Bay, which are picked up by the children in the village, and they are happy to play at night.

I moved here, not to admire its legends, but to love its tranquility. (To be continued.) )
