The former city lord's palace was separated from the city by water. The deep still water blocked the prying eyes of outsiders, and also hindered the rescue of everyone on the night of the incident.
Today, the mansion compound surrounded by red flowers and green trees has been demolished without leaving a trace.
On the island in the water, there is a Dragon Girl Temple.
On the water that separates the island and the city, a beautiful and majestic double-arch bridge is often erected not far away. On these bridges, there are carved animals, birds, flowers, trees, and landscapes. There is no ominous cloud foreshadowing the fairy mist, as if
The other end of the bridge is not an island but a fairyland.
The island is lined with green trees, singing birds, and fragrant flowers. There are dry, flat stone roads leading to all directions. The only building standing in the center of the island is the Dragon Girl Temple.
Hu Qing couldn't help but wonder, how could the monk worship the dragon girl when he was an enemy of the demon clan.
Other outsiders will also be curious, and locals will come to answer their questions.
"Back then, the city lord's palace was destroyed, and all the city lord's clan and close associates were slaughtered. The feng shui of Qiamu Bay fell into ruin. Many people left Qiamu Bay, but none of us old people who have lived here for generations want to leave."
The speaker was an old man who looked to be sixty years old. He was a monk, but he didn't know how old he really was.
"We stayed and lived in the lonely Qiamu Bay. In those few years, the situation in Qiamu Bay was really not good. Not a single blade of grass could bloom."
"Later, a Taoist priest came to the city and told us that it was the Dragon Girl who nourished this spiritual land, and we should be grateful and give back. No matter how we got this favor, if we are not grateful, we are violating our family relationships."
"So we built the Dragon Girl Temple. After the Dragon Girl statue was erected, everyone knelt down, rain fell from the sky, and Jiamu Bay came to life again."
The old man pinched his beard and smiled: "God is merciful and kind."
Therefore, it is not that the dragon girl appears, but that the order of cause and effect is disrupted here. If you sincerely repent and take action, God will grant you a glimmer of hope.
Punish evil and promote good.
There were a lot of people coming, and most of them dispersed along the stone road, probably going directly to see Xiaolong. Chunlie also wanted to go, but Hu Qing wanted to see the Dragon Girl statue.
Chun Lie was puzzled: "It's just a stone statue. It can't earn incense in the hands of monks."
Hu Qing said: "Men and women pay different attention. You go over first and I will go find you later."
Chun Lie thought for a moment: "That's all, I'll let you go."
Hu Qing let him go and walked straight into the temple. There was only one hall in the temple. The door of the hall was facing the main entrance. From a distance, he saw a statue of a woman standing inside.
There are incense burners right at the entrance, three along the way, but there are none in the palace. I don’t know why.
Hu Qing had no intention of offering incense. She was an outsider, and if she didn't get the cause, she wouldn't get the result. Finally, she stopped at the side of the entrance of the main hall to look at the statue of the Dragon Girl.
I was too far away that night, so no one could clearly see what the Dragon Girl was describing. The statue in front of me was carved from a piece of pure white jade. It was beautiful and graceful. I don’t know which woman I was referring to. The lush black hair was sprinkled down, and the Dragon Girl’s expression was gentle and compassionate.
, Hu Qing felt inexplicably uncomfortable when he saw it. This was Yun Jingtian’s dragon clan, not the Bodhisattva in the temple.
The dragon girl has been trapped for an unknown number of years, nourishing the soil and water of the human race with her own body. How can she really not care about it? She still cares, otherwise, why would Qiamu Bay be affected by the backlash?
However, humans and demons are both living beings in heaven and earth, and there is no difference in the eyes of heaven. Therefore, they regard all things as stupid dogs and do not carry out thunder and rain based on race or grudges.
Heaven and earth are unkind, the best thing is fairness.
Hu Qing touched Hu Huahua's smooth back and stared at the Dragon Girl statue for a long time. This statue was not the Dragon Girl, but the salvation of the people here.
She turned around and looked from the entrance of the main hall to the main door outside. There were incense sticks in the three cauldrons. The burning incense heads shook the air above like water, and the scene outside the main door became unreal in the swaying.
She stared at the changing air, not knowing what she was thinking. It took her a long time to come back to her senses. It seemed like a long time had passed, and she felt that things were different around her.
After she blinked a few times and the strangeness in her eyes dissipated, Chun Lie whispered: "Are you okay?"
Hu Qing said: "It's okay. I think the fate in this world is quite wonderful."
Chun Lie chuckled: "Have you had an epiphany?"
Hu Qing was speechless: "Do you think I have an epiphany?"
She was referring to the fact that there was no abnormal movement in the spiritual energy around her. A monk's enlightenment would be accompanied by the infusion of spiritual energy into his cultivation level. A sudden enlightenment would not only improve his state of mind but also his cultivation level. As for her - maybe it was an epiphany, but she could not directly absorb it.
Only Shui Xin and Silk Bu know clearly about spiritual energy.
As for whether Hu Nuan knew about it, he knew it at first, but then? He never cared about it anymore!
Hu Nuan: As long as my mother can practice cultivation.
As long as the result is achieved, it doesn’t matter the process.
Therefore, this shortcoming has become Hu Qing's protective color at this time. After all, the skill of sudden enlightenment can be triggered from time to time. Once it attracts spiritual energy, others can also judge the person's cultivation level through the amount of spiritual energy.
I just don’t absorb spiritual energy, I just keep you guessing. Hu Qing thought this in his heart, with regret on his face: “I also think I should have an epiphany. It’s rare for a busy person like me to have time to daze, why doesn’t God give it to me?
Where is this blessing?”
Silk cloth who knows the inside story: good disguise
Chun Lie, who didn't know the inside story, thought she was funny and just consoled her: "Then you will be in a daze more often and you will have an epiphany."
Hu Qing nodded seriously: "Hmm." He added: "I have been to Qiamu Bay. At that time, there were shops selling osmanthus nectar everywhere in Qiamu Bay. I bought a lot. At that time, the most famous
It’s the Winter Honey King. Unfortunately, it’s a specialty of the City Lord’s Mansion and outsiders can’t buy it——”
"Guest, stop talking. You can't mention those things in front of the Dragon Girl." A middle-aged woman with a serious face suddenly appeared and harshly accused her.
It's like saying: It's so uncultured to speak ill of the master in front of the master.
Hu Qing pursed his lips, flicked his tongue, and apologized hastily: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean what I said, so I didn't mention it."
He hurriedly motioned to Chunlie to go out together.
When he went outside, Hu Qing looked back and saw that the woman was still staring at her. He took Chun Lie's sleeve and quickly turned along the stone road. He was relieved when he could no longer see the door.
Chun Lie was funny: "Are you still afraid of her?"
Hu Qing: "It's all because of my rudeness. Nowadays, the people of Qiamuwan regard the Dragon Girl as their patron saint. When I tell the Dragon Girl about her past misfortunes, am I not going to slap them in the face?"
Suddenly she paused and thought deeply.
Chun Lie asked: "What?"
Hu Qing said: "I was thinking that on this island, the city lord's clan used to be on top and the dragon girl was sealed below. Now the dragon girl is enshrined on the top of the island where the bones of the city lord's clan are—"
Those who directly committed evil and benefited were the people of the city lord family. They were the real cause of this cause and effect. The people of Qiamuwan benefited indirectly and are still paying off their debts. What about the direct beneficiaries? No, what about the ghosts who directly benefited?
Chun Lie: "You mean - they might be sealed down below?"
Hu Qing said: "Let's go to the place where Dragon Girl was sealed."
Chun Lie: "That place is exactly where the little dragon appears now."
Before he came here, he must have understood what happened here, and Qianji Pavilion was the most well-informed organization in Qiyetian.
