The origin of the Desolate Moon Continent is that the moon here is completely different from the moons on other continents. The moon in the sky here is huge and desolate. Its area is five to six times that of the moons on other continents, making it look even more...
Clear, bright...
Every clear night, the mountain peaks shown in the moon are so clear and desolate. The rolling mountains above, the ravines of different depths, and the criss-cross paths are deeply engraved on every place on this continent.
The hearts of ordinary people are like the marks of time stamped on the bluestones of the creek in my hometown.
The New Year's Eve is a festival that grows in the hearts of every mortal in the Desolate Moon Continent. It is a reunion, warm and solemn festival.
It is held in the middle of the twelfth month of each year, on the fullest day of the moon. People sing and dance under the full moon, bringing out the best monsters they hunt in the year, the best wine they have collected at home, or
The whole city celebrates together, or the whole family rejoices.
They stayed drunk under the bright moonlight and talked about their lofty sentiments and ambitions.
The talented men drank wine, composed poems and criticized Fang Qiu, while the beauties played drums and expressed their love for each other under the moonlight.
…………
At this time, the sky was already slightly dark, and a huge full moon appeared in the sky. Li Yan sat on the platform and looked at the hazy blue mountains in the distance. He looked into the distance with confused eyes, as if he was traveling thousands of miles away.
, back to the foot of the familiar green mountain.
Li Yan came out today not just to practice magic. When he saw the giant moon in the courtyard at night a few days ago, it already aroused nostalgia in his heart. He calculated that it was already the end of the year and the new year was about to arrive.
It has been more than a year since he came out of the mountain village, and he spent last year's New Year in exile. Although he was homesick at that time, he did not dare to slack off in the slightest.
Today, looking at the full moon in the distance like in previous years, all kinds of thoughts come to my mind.
Early this morning, he had no intention of meditating, so he came to the platform early to practice his magic while waiting for the bright moon to rise.
Li Yan stared blankly into the distance. Firecrackers should have been blasting in the village now. The golden butter and fragrant monster tributes should have been placed under the old locust tree at the head of the village. The children in the village
It was time for them to chase and fight around these tributes for a few times, and then run to the end of the village amidst the shouts and scolds of the adults. After a while, they ran back to the end of the village amid the frolic and frolicking, and from time to time they ran back to the village.
I took a few glances at the full moon in the sky, hoping that it would rise to the top of the old willow tree soon, so that I could start worshiping my ancestors and then have a big feast.
The village chief would hold a wine bowl and have sex with every man in the village. He would also give each child a heavy slap on the head to make them grow up quickly. In the middle of the night, he would fall asleep hugging the old willow tree, holding his head against his head.
The huge moon sleeps until dawn.
The father rarely smiled, took a few puffs of cigarettes, drank a few sips of spirits with a group of old friends, and pointed at his children with his pipe from time to time.
The third brother would limp to sit next to his father, look at him with a smile, and occasionally whisper a few words to ask him to drink less.
mother and four
My sister, like other women in the village, kept serving delicious meat and steamed buns, and occasionally met young people in the village. My mother and the aunts laughed loudly, pointed, and looked at their girls again.
Say a few words in their ears.
The fourth sister, like the other young girls in the village, always blushed after hearing those words, and then continued to bring the food away after being embarrassed.
The young people in the village blushed and looked at the fourth sister and the others amidst the cheers.
…………
Li Yan just stared into the distance blankly, tears streaming down his face unknowingly.
After a long time, Li Yan withdrew his gaze and looked up at the huge bright moon above his head, which seemed to be filled with familiar faces.
He raised his hand to wipe away the tears, stood up facing the moon, straightened his clothes, knelt down, and murmured, "Dad, mother, happy new year, happy new year," and then respectfully said
He kowtowed several times.
Just when he was about to stand up, a cold but hesitant voice came from behind him, "You...among you mortals, is there really such a thing as old age?"
When Li Yan heard this, he stood up in excitement and turned around, "Who?"
He looked back and saw a slender, graceful woman in white standing on the edge of the platform behind him, looking at him with a hesitant expression.
"Is it you?" Li Yan's thoughts were revealed, and his heart suddenly became angry. There was a hint of questioning in his words.
At this time, the moonlight filled the platform like silver, and the light was very good. Li Yan could see clearly the person coming at a glance. It was none other than the senior sister from Buli Feng whom he had met a few months ago, Zhao Min!
At this time, Zhao Min was standing on the edge of the bamboo forest from where he came from the platform. His white clothes were fluttering in the wind. Under the moonlight, his handsome face was like a white jade carving, which added a bit of holy white light. His black and white eyes under his thick eyebrows still looked a bit cold.
He looked at Li Yan with interest.
"What? Can't I come here?" Seeing Li Yan's stern tone, she couldn't help but frown slightly.
Li Yan also frowned after hearing this, and thought to himself, "Yes, this is not his little bamboo courtyard, why can't the other party come?", but he still asked the next moment, but his tone had softened.
"This is Xiaozhu Peak. It seems that the other Four Peaks disciples only go to the middle of the mountain for business. The other peak disciples don't come here on weekdays."
In the past few months, he has only met a few other peak disciples halfway up the mountain, but it seems that except for the few paths he saw, those people never stay in the rest of Xiaozhu Peak, as if there are restrictions.
.Therefore, when he was receiving the spirit stone, he asked the second senior brother in the main hall and knew the paths, just as he guessed.
They are the same places where Xiaozhufeng went on missions. Those disciples were obviously here to do missions.
"You know a little bit, but can't I come to the back mountain?" Apparently the girl in white was a little dissatisfied with Li Yan's previous attitude.
"This? Not really...it's just that there are very few disciples from other peaks coming here in the back mountain." Li Yan never really asked his senior brother whether disciples from other peaks were not allowed here, but he had never seen any disciples from other peaks before.
My thoughts were revealed, and I blurted out out of desperation. Now I feel that I was wrong, and I couldn't help scratching the back of my head with my hand.
Zhao Min couldn't get angry anymore when she saw him like this. Moreover, she followed her heart today and came here involuntarily. After hearing what Li Yan said, she felt a little curious. She had heard about mortals since she was a child.
There is a saying about "New Year's Eve", which seems to be very grand, lively and taken seriously, but I have never seen it before.
"Oh, this is a place I used to come often, but it's no longer at Xiaozhu Peak, so I come less often. You're right, disciples from Houshanbie Peak are not allowed to come here." Although Zhao Min's tone was gentle,
But she still looked cold. As she spoke, she walked lightly to the platform, and slowly walked to the edge of the platform, facing the huge full moon.
Li Yan was stunned for a while and thought to himself, "From what she said, it seemed like she was a disciple of Xiaozhu Peak before. Could it be that she is one of those disciples who left Xiaozhu Peak? In this way, it is not surprising that she can come here."
Yes, and she seems to come here very often."
The beautiful woman in front of Li Yan stood on the edge of the cliff, looking at the giant moon with somewhat blurred eyes. After a while, she looked at the rolling mountains in the distance under the night. The silver moon shone on her body, like a sculpture carved from white jade.
His face glowed with a delicate white light, and he stood facing the wind. His clothes were fluttering backwards in the mountain wind, making the clothes tightly wrap around his body, wrapping the two peaks on his chest more and more straight, and his slender and straight legs became even more straight.
It was a sudden event, as the Fairy Ruyue Palace came down to earth, and Li Yan couldn't help but be stunned.
After Zhao Min asked, she immediately fell into her own thoughts. After a while, when she withdrew her blurred gaze, she didn't hear any movement behind her. She couldn't help but frowned and looked sideways to the back. She looked
What he saw was Li Yan looking like a pig brother, staring at him blankly, his face turned pale, and he spat softly.
Li Yan woke up as if from a dream when he heard this spitting sound. His face turned red and he coughed twice. He quickly answered to divert his attention.
"Zhao...Senior Sister Zhao, there is some 'New Year's Eve' in our place. I have never been to other places that are too far away, but I heard from people in the village who have traveled far away that there are some, but? But it seems that in this sect
It’s not like New Year’s Eve. I didn’t see any New Year’s Eve decorations or atmosphere when I came out today.” .??.
"Zongmen? Nianguan? Huh, in addition to cultivation, there is also cultivation. What kind of human relationships can there be... Can you tell me about Nianguan in the mortal world?" Zhao
After Min heard this, a trace of disdain appeared on his jade-like face, and he snorted softly in his pretty nose. After a pause, he asked again.
After hearing this, Li Yan felt a little confused, "Senior Sister Zhao actually said such disrespectful words to the sect. She is so brave, and she is not afraid of being heard by others in the sect. If the elders and the Law Enforcement Hall find out, it would be bad."
of."
"Hasn't Senior Sister Zhao ever been to a mortal town? She has grown up in the Immortal Sect since she was a child?" Li Yan had many questions, but he just thought about it. He thought to himself, "It seems that this Senior Sister entered the profession earlier than the Seventh Senior Brother.
The Seventh Senior Brother was discovered by the Immortal Sect when he was twelve years old. This senior sister may have entered the Immortal Sect since she was a child or was ignorant."
After listening to Li Yan's words, Zhao Min was silent for a while, and then she sat down on the edge of the platform. She hung her long legs in the air outside the platform, swaying gently, and raised her face to look into the distance.
In the night where the silver light shines, he murmured, "I have never stayed in a mortal town, but I heard from some senior brothers and sisters that it is very peaceful and lively there, and it is peaceful at sunrise and at sunset."
, day after day, year after year; relatives and friends often gather together, children play around the knees of their parents, holding lanterns and chasing and playing with their peers of the same age, the whole family can often gather around the table happily
Talking...but I have only heard of it, never experienced it."
Li Yan stood behind Zhao Min, looking at her pretty back and listening to her whispers, and couldn't help but think of his hometown, his sister and his playmates in the village.
Unknowingly, he took a few steps forward and came to the edge of the platform. He also sat down on the other edge of the platform some distance away from the girl in white. He sighed. Seeing the girl's back, he felt that she
Feeling a little lonely, he suddenly calmed down. After thinking about it, she was just asking about folk customs that almost everyone knew. Besides, he didn't want to go back early today, so he spoke softly.
"The mortal world has the fun of the mortal world, but it also has the joys and sorrows of life. My hometown is at the foot of Daqing Mountain, a million miles away from here. The village is not big, with dozens of households. The village is surrounded by terraces, and there are several
An old locust tree. Every time when the New Year comes, it is spring. The rapeseed fields outside the village are blooming in layers, and all kinds of wild flowers are scattered among them. On the day of the New Year, every family starts early in the morning to prepare the most abundant food of the year.
The children were playing in the village. My mother, my sister, and the aunts from the same village took out monster meat and flour from their homes and started cooking or frying various delicacies. The smoke curled up and the aroma filled the village; while my father and third brother
Then work with other villagers to tidy up the ancestral temple, place tributes, clean the house..."
Under a bright full moon, the surroundings were quiet except for the gentle breeze blowing quietly. A pair of boys and girls were sitting on the edge of the platform, looking up at the bright moon and talking.
The huge moon seemed to include the two figures in the white halo circle. Occasionally, the girl asked softly, while Li Yan slowly told about the ordinary life of the mortal world...
