(I looked out from the mountains and saw the sparks lighting up the dawn)

It is a beautiful scene in the world. It is midsummer morning. By the Tongtian River, the smoke from the scattered houses is gradually rising. The mist is slowly rising, blending with the white fish belly on the horizon.

This was originally Chenjiazhuang, but since the Inspiration King was subdued by Guanyin five hundred years ago, there has been a locust plague for no reason. The crops have been gnawed clean, and there is no way to feed this area...

So they walked away and dispersed, leaving only a dozen or so families guarding this small fishing village and refusing to leave.

The morning breeze was blowing, and a house in the fishing village lit up a lamp. A woman's screams and a man's anxious voice came from inside.

"Madam, don't be impatient for a moment. I'll call the second aunt right away." The man comforted the woman on the bed. The woman had a big belly, veins on her forehead were protruding and she was sweating like rain. She was obviously about to give birth.

After that, the man put on his clothes and went out.

"Dong dong dong..."

"Second Aunt! Open the door quickly!" The man quickly walked to another thatched cottage.

"Who is this, so early in the morning?" shouted a middle-aged woman inside.

The man said: "Second aunt, it's me, Ye Heng. My wife is about to give birth, and I don't know how to deliver the baby."

After hearing this, the second aunt in the room quickly got up, opened the door and said: "Hurry up, you can't delay the birth of the baby, take me to see it quickly."

Although it was just dawn and no one wanted to be disturbed from their sleep so early in the morning, the folk customs in this small fishing village were quite simple and everyone was very helpful to anyone who had something to do. The second aunt heard Ye Heng say that he

The wife was about to give birth, so she hurriedly moved her chubby body out of the door, grabbed Ye Heng and ran towards his house.

The two of them entered the room. The second aunt looked at the woman on the bed and said to Ye Heng: "Go get some hot water and make a brazier. Hurry."

"Hey, okay." Ye Heng nodded and didn't dare to neglect. He went out to fetch water and collected firewood in the kitchen, but he heard birdsong outside the window. He didn't find it strange at all. Originally, there were birdsong in the village by the river.

It was normal for the dawn to break. So he boiled water, picked up a brazier and went to the bedroom. But as soon as he left the kitchen door, Ye Heng was dumbfounded. There were more than a dozen different birds parked on several small huts in his house, and they were chirping.

cried.

He felt strange in his heart, but he didn't think much about it and hurriedly sent the hot water and brazier to his second aunt.

"Second Aunt, the water and the brazier are here." Ye Heng said.

The second aunt didn't say anything and used a towel dipped in hot water to protect the woman on the bed.

At this time, Ye Heng said: "Second Aunt, is my wife okay?"

The second aunt said: "It's like this when giving birth, so why is it so noisy outside the window?"

Ye Heng shook his head: "I don't know either. I just came out to fetch water and saw a dozen birds parked on the house. I don't know why..."

The two people were waiting for the arrival of new life together with the woman on the bed in the house. On the top of the mountain in the distance, an old man also saw a vision by the river.

He was wearing a bamboo hat and leaning on a wooden cane, with a wisteria gourd and a piece of luminous jade hanging on it.

This person was Feng Yi who came to look for Bifang. He followed the red star in the sky and suddenly saw birds flying around in the forest, gathering towards the fishing village. He thought that this was the scene of hundreds of birds paying homage to the phoenix, so he

Arrive quickly.

He looked at the fishing village from a distance, and saw that the jade on the wooden crutches became more and more bright, and he reached the front of the house in a short step.

Feng Yizheng was about to knock on the door, but unexpectedly, the red star passed through the thatched roof facing the rising sun. With a bang, Ye Heng and his second aunt exploded out of the house, and the birds on the roof scattered in all directions, hovering in the air.

He refused to leave. But when Feng Yi looked at the thatched cottage again, it was already filled with fire!

"Madam!!!" Ye Heng reluctantly got up from the ground, and the second aunt next to him fainted. Ye Heng got up and rushed into the house, but Feng Yi blocked him with a wooden crutch.

Ye Hengxin said in shock and anger: "Who are you?!"

Feng Yi stared at the fire in the house and said, "Wait here!" After saying that, he picked up the wooden cane and rushed into the house while the fire was burning. He saw that the woman was unconscious, and the child in her belly was not yet born, and that

A red star is resting on the woman's belly and beating...

"Is Chixing Yinghuo also greedy for this phoenix fire?" Feng Yi murmured, "Then use your demon fire to cover the phoenix fire!"

This Yinghuo is a demon fire from outside the sky. It was once sealed on the red star. Whenever it comes to the world, the world will be in chaos. When Feng Yi was Yang Jian, he had the intention to cast it down but was stopped by the Jade Emperor. Although the Jade Emperor did not say it, Yang Jian knew that the war would happen.

This is the perfect time for the gods to gain the power of faith.

Yinghuo is warlike by nature, but with this red star seal, he can only rely on his body to cause wars. Now he is in front of

Come here, you must want to annex Fenghuo and break through the shackles of the three realms of cholera!

Feng Yi took off the jade stone on the wooden crutch and sealed it with a seal to lock the red star. The red star roared: "Old guy! Who are you to ruin my good deeds!"

Feng Yi said nothing, beckoned and turned the red star into light and shot it into the woman's belly!

"Snapped!..."

A ball of light rolled out of the woman's belly. Feng Yi picked up a quilt and picked up the ball. He saw a baby lying quietly inside...

The baby opened his little mouth, and the flames on the room were immediately sucked into his mouth, "It's really you..." Feng Yi felt mixed emotions as he looked at the child in his arms.

"Wow...wow..."

Ye Heng, who was outside the house, saw that the fire was extinguished and heard crying inside the house, so he quickly entered the house and saw Feng Yi holding a child.

When Feng Yi saw Ye Heng come in, he handed the child into Ye Heng's hands. Ye Heng took the child tremblingly and said, "Old sir...Oh no, old god...Thank you for your help." Ye Heng

After a pause, he looked at the unconscious woman beside him, "My wife, she..."

Feng Yi stepped forward and looked at the unconscious woman on the bed and said, "It's nothing serious. I just spent too much energy and fell asleep." As he said that, he put a stream of Qi on the woman's forehead with his hand, and then she fell asleep.

The woman's pale face turned rosy.

Seeing this, Ye Heng quickly knelt down on the ground: "Thank you, old immortal, thank you, old immortal!"

Feng Yi helped Ye Heng up and said, "I'm not a god, I'm just a wandering alchemist who knows some magic. My surname is Feng. Oh, by the way, let's see if it's a boy or a girl."

Only then did Ye Heng smile awkwardly. He opened the quilt and looked at it and said, "Boy, it's a boy, hehe..."

At this time, the door was opened, and it turned out that the second aunt came in from outside the house: "What's going on, Ye Heng? Why am I lying outside? Have I given birth?"

Ye Heng scratched his head and said: "I don't know, maybe the brazier exploded and burned half of the house. But fortunately, Mr. Feng came to help and saved the mother and son. It's a son, haha..."

The second aunt looked at Feng Yi and said with a smile: "You must have accumulated good deeds in your last life. Your son will meet a noble person when he is born. I hope mother and son are safe! I will go back first."

Feng Yi nodded and smiled, and sent away the second aunt. Ye Heng placed the child next to the woman, and the child's cry also woke up the unconscious woman. After the woman woke up, she looked at the child beside her dreamily, and she turned

When he caught a glimpse of Feng Yi, he asked: "Ms. sir... who is this..."

Ye Heng told the woman what happened, and the woman quickly thanked him.

She picked up the child and suddenly found a fire feather mark on the child's left shoulder, so she called Ye Heng over. After looking at it, Ye Heng said: "This is probably just a birthmark. It doesn't matter. It will be easy to identify if you get lost in the future. Haha...

"

Feng Yi saw it and knew that it was the traces left by the bloodline of Red Star Yinghuo and Feng Yi...

"Old sir," Ye Heng's words disrupted Feng Yi's thoughts, "Let's talk somewhere else."

Seeing that the mother and son had fallen asleep, Feng Yi and Ye Heng went out of the room. At this time, the morning sun had risen and the morning fog had dispersed. The villagers outside also began to work for the day, but many villagers had already learned from their second aunt.

Zhang Mou learned about Ye Heng's family and congratulated Ye Heng many times when passing by.

The two set up tables and chairs in the courtyard. Ye Heng poured tea and chatted with Feng Yi about home affairs.

"Mr. Feng, thank you very much for today. If it weren't for you, my family would be doomed." Ye Heng picked up the tea bowl and took a sip, rubbing his trousers with his other hand. He was an honest man and didn't know how to talk.

Feng Yi also picked up the tea and took a sip. He looked around. The yard was not big, surrounded by three or four small huts. There were a few salted fish drying on the fence in front of the yard, and firewood was piled at the door of the kitchen.

There were hanging peppers, garlic and a few pieces of dried corn. It seemed that there were also poor families in this village.

Feng Yi squinted his eyes, looked at the sun in the sky and said: "I heard that your place was originally Chenjiazhuang. At that time, Master Sanzang still stayed here. Why are there only these ten families left now?

?”

Ye Hengting and Feng Yi were shocked when they talked about Chenjiazhuang, and said: "Oh, Mr. Feng. Do you still know about Chenjiazhuang? That happened a long time ago. I only heard my grandfather say that his grandfather told him

It's up to you, you..." Ye Heng said this and looked at Feng Yi. He saw that Feng Yi was only in his seventies.

"Who did you hear this from?" Ye Heng asked.

"Isn't that what storytellers say?" Feng Yi said casually,

"Said that Sun Hou saved two children in Chenjiazhuang and asked Master Guanyin to collect the monsters in the Tongtian River."

Ye Heng felt embarrassed when Feng Yi said this: "Mr. Feng, you are ridiculous. We have been living in this fishing village for several generations. We only occasionally take some river goods to the market to exchange for rice and salt. How can we have money?"

Books, hey hey..."

Feng Yi smiled and said, "Then do you know why Chenjiazhuang became the small fishing village it is today?"

"This..." Ye Heng said, "I heard from my grandfather that since Master Tripitaka collected the demons and left, people have made fish basket statues for Guanyin Bodhisattva and visited them day and night. It was really good weather at the beginning.

"

"Isn't this a good thing?" Feng Yi said.

Ye Heng shook his head: "But for some reason, after three consecutive years of locust plagues, all the surrounding crops were eaten away, and only the fish in this river could feed this group of people. When it comes to my father's generation, even

It was hard to see any fish in the river...so the man wandered away. Those people said that Guanyin was no longer effective, and even the Fish Basket Guanyin statue was ruined..."

"Then why didn't you leave?" Feng Yi asked again.

Ye Heng picked up the teapot and poured another bowl. He said: "My parents have asked us to worship Guanyin in the Fish Basket since we were young. They said that as long as we are sincere, Guanyin will not ignore us. No," he said.

, Ye Heng pointed to the salted fish drying by the wall, "You can always catch fish...
