As the two paper-made red dragon balls were lowered, green smoke also emerged from the incense burner and rose into the sky, gathering together and never dispersing.
Soon the place became filled with smoke, and a fairy mountain appeared in the sky like a mirage, with misty clouds and pavilions.
There is a gold and silver platform on the highest peak of the mountains, with two Taoist priests with white hair and childish faces sitting and standing on it, and a group of fairies standing beside it.
The sitting Taoist priest was playing a piece of music on the harp, and his voice was melodious and melodious. It was exactly the fairy music that had been heard before.
The standing old Taoist priest stepped on an auspicious cloud and flew up from the gold and silver platform. There were two boys on the cloud.
"Immortal chief!"
All the villagers knelt on the ground. Lan Hua pulled Lu Li, but Lu Li shook his head. Lan Hua recited a mantra, and the three of them disappeared.
Lu Li watched with his spiritual vision. This old Taoist priest was not as strong as Cui Maozhu. According to Lan Hua, he should not be able to detect them.
He wanted to see if this Yingzhou Immortal Sect was good or bad, and then decide on a communication method.
As expected, the Taoist priest never even glanced in the direction of Lu Li and the others. He rode the clouds to a place four to five feet above the villagers and chanted the Taoist slogan: "Immeasurable God who saves people!"
"Immortal, please give me medicine!"
The villagers kowtowed like crazy, including pregnant women and children.
Lu Li frowned, but saw a fairy boy take a step forward, flick his whisk, and scatter a handful of red beans to the crowd.
Lu Li originally thought that the villagers would swarm over the beans, but unexpectedly, they didn't fight for them. Instead, they picked up the beans one by one in the order they lined up.
In the end, every villager got a bean and his face was beaming with joy.
Another fairy boy stepped forward and shouted in a childish voice: "Today the fairy medicine has been distributed, and the fairy will come again tomorrow."
After saying this, he flicked his fly whisk, and the auspicious clouds carried them away. The villagers kowtowed again and thanked them. When they got up again, they each threw down their belongings and took the medicine.
There were a few blushes on everyone's face, and after a while, they all laughed and danced.
Lu Li pulled the old man over, but the old man never spoke to him again. Instead, he laughed and said, "My wife, you're back? The military disaster has passed. Look, our second child is still alive and he's already so big!"
The old man pointed to a place next to him, but there was no one there at all.
"this……"
Although Lan Hua is well-informed, he has never seen such a scene.
"It should be some kind of hallucinogenic drug. The people in Yingzhou Fairy Mountain are trying to make things mysterious. I don't know what they are doing!"
Lu Li judged.
"So, I think we should go to other villages to have a look."
Lan Hua suggested.
Lu Li nodded, and the three of them got on the Liujia Giant again, and searched for four more villages. By the time they reached the fifth village, they had visited the Liuding God several times, and it was almost evening.
What I saw along the way was that the conditions in each village were similar. They were all holding immortal ceremonies one after another, with fairy music and fairy children giving beans, and they were all the same.
In this fifth village, before the "miracle medicine" could even be released, the villagers rushed to grab it. As a result, their heads were broken and bleeding, and a little girl of five or six years old was knocked to the ground and lay on the ground "woo woo."
"Crying.
Seeing that the person next to her was about to step on her, Lu Li hurried over, helped the little girl up and asked, "What are you trying to grab?"
The little girl cried and said: "The immortal... said that after taking the fairy medicine, we will, we will... never have troubles!"
Qingshui Liuli knelt down and hugged the little girl. Her clothes were wet with tears, but she didn't wipe them away. She asked, "Where are your parents?"
Just as he was talking, a middle-aged woman came quickly, saw the little girl, and shouted: "Yao'er!"
When the little girl saw her, she broke away from Qingshui Liuli's arms and threw herself into the middle-aged woman's arms. The woman raised her hand to hit her, but finally stopped and said sadly: "Yao'er, Mom didn't grab the elixir.
Let’s go home!”
Yao'er cried twice and said, "If there is no magic medicine, what will Aye and his brother do?"
The woman sighed, and Yao'er said again: "Mom, these immortal masters helped me up just now!"
The woman looked up and saw an unfamiliar face. She wanted to ignore them, but seeing that they were wearing Taoist robes, she hesitated a little.
Lu Li saw that this woman was quite pretty with her red lips and white teeth, but her eyebrows were lowered and she didn't dare to raise her head. He didn't know how to interrupt for a while.
It had to be Lan Hua, who took a step forward and said: "We are descendants of the Zhengtao Path. We have a close relationship with the Immortal Elders of the Immortal Mountain. We are old acquaintances of the Immortal Elder who gave me medicine today. We came to the precious treasure land to ask for immortality. Please also ask Madam
Stay here for one night and I will leave tomorrow."
After that, he took out a talisman from his pocket and said, "A few silver taels will help us pay for it."
It was obviously just a yellow talisman, but the woman's eyes seemed to have really seen the silver. She waved her hand and said, "I'm sorry, you are so polite. How dare you call a country woman your wife? We have lived in Xingshu Village for a long time and we don't need this gold."
Silver thing, Immortal Chief, come with me."
After saying that, she looked enviously at the laughing and dancing villagers in front of her, gritted her teeth, took Yao'er in hand, and greeted the three of them to go to her home.
"Wait until night, and we'll go to various incense burners to see what they have to offer."
Lan Hua followed first, Lu Li nodded, and Qing Shui Liuli followed.
Qingshui Liuli was very curious about this ancient village in Dongsheng Shenzhou, and looked around.
Lu Li and Lu Li grew up watching costume TV dramas. Baiyun Temple was so poor that they did not have a TV set. They practiced hard in the mountains. When Lan Hua was a child, he would walk dozens of miles of mountain roads to watch TV in the back mountain village, and he was often beaten for this.
The two of them only felt that this village was similar to what was shown on TV, except that the colors of the bricks and tiles were not so bright, only black, white and red.
The village was not that big. After a while, the woman came to a courtyard. The door was unlocked. As soon as they walked in, maybe they heard the sound of footsteps. A middle-aged man and two little boys came up from the courtyard. These three
The man's right leg was injured and his legs and feet were lame. He limped over. The man asked: "Madam, have you got the elixir?"
But seeing the woman's expression, he sighed, slumped and slowly sat down on the threshold, and said worriedly: "Without the fairy medicine, how can I live this life!"
After a while, he felt that the woman was in a heavy mood, so he forced a smile and comforted her: "Don't worry, madam, the prosperous age will come back soon."
The woman forced her lips to agree, and the little boy ran over and took the man's hand and said, "Aye, an outsider is here!"
The woman also said: "My dear, these three immortal masters are old acquaintances of the Immortal Master of the Immortal Sect and are here to stay overnight."
The man then confessed his crime and slowly stood up to greet the three of them. Lan Hua also stated his purpose of coming. The man invited everyone to sit down in the room, but he could not hide the sadness on his face even as he spoke.
Lu Li noticed that this house was relatively shabby, with three rooms in total, and the immortal family tablets were enshrined in the living room.
After sitting down, Lan Hua tried several times and asked about the fairy medicine and the origin of the village. The man only knew that Xingshu Village was named after the almond tree at the head of the village. They came here to escape. This place is at the foot of the Fairy Mountain. He didn't know anything else.
.
After a while, the woman served twelve dishes one after another, including chicken, fish and meat. The table was very rich.
There is no hierarchy between men and women in this family. The five members of the family and Lu Li gathered around the Eight Immortals table to eat. The two boys devoured their food without stopping, but their expressions were numb. From beginning to end, they did not say a word. The host and hostess also
There were just sighs, but little Yao'er was very lively, pulling Lu Li and Qing Shui Liuli to ask questions.
When she heard Qingshui Liuli say that there was a carriage outside that could run on its own, she couldn't help but envy: "If there is one in Xingshu Village, dad and brother can go wherever they want!"
The woman tapped her head symbolically and reminded: "Eat!"
Lu Li saw how harmonious the family was, and then thought of a group of people laughing and dancing at the end of the village. He felt that everything in these villages was strange. What was the purpose of the Yingzhou Immortal Sect distributing elixirs to mortals every day?
At Lu Li's signal, the three of them didn't eat or even drink water.
Finally at night, Lu Li and Lan Hua were arranged in a guest room, and Qingshui Liuli lived with the woman. As soon as he left the family's sight, Lu Li said: "Taoist, there is something wrong with this family."
Lan Hua had been tired for a day and had used up a lot of his spiritual energy. He couldn't keep up with his thinking, so he asked, "What's wrong?"
"There is only one laborer in the family, and the income is not much. Why do you not feel any distress at all when you have twelve dishes for a meal?"
Lan Hua replenished himself and Lu Li with the effect of Six Ding Shen, and thought for a moment and said, "Maybe they have a rich family, maybe they are hospitable, maybe there are abundant products here..."
Halfway through, Lan Hua was already alert. There were no furnishings in this family's house, and they obviously had no wealth. No matter how hospitable they were, they would feel distressed. There were only some villages in this place, not even a town. Where could the products come from?
Lu Li made a decision immediately: "We don't have to wait for this family to fall asleep. Let's check the incense burner first!"
Lan Hua pointed to Qing Shui Liuli's room. The lights were still on in that room, and the voices of Xiao Yao'er and her were still being heard.
"She has not patched up the Six Ding Shen. If she goes in now, she will alert others. Ignore her for now. She can protect herself."
Lu Li and Lan Hua climbed over the courtyard wall one after another and went straight to the incense burner altar outside the village. From a distance, they saw the dragon and lion made of paper at the incense burner, and the gongs and drums were scattered on the ground, laughing and dancing.
The villagers have gone home.
Just as they were about to go there, they heard a burst of melodious fairy music coming from the incense burner again.
Lu Li pulled Lan Hua, and the two of them hid in the corner. They saw smoke rising from the incense burner again, the fairy mountain reappeared in the sky, and an auspicious cloud carried the old Taoist and the boy out of it.
The old Taoist glanced at the village and said: "This village is not yet familiar with it, go and take over another village!"
Then the Taoist boy flicked his fly whisk, and the auspicious clouds flew back to the fairy mountain. The smoke gathered and the fairy mountain was disappearing.
"Pretending to be a ghost!"
From the old Taoist's words, Lu Li was already sure that the Yingzhou Immortal Sect had an impure purpose in giving out the elixir to the villagers.
Since Lu Li was completely sure that the Yingzhou Immortal Sect was not a good person, he no longer waited. He summoned the Confucian holy book and read: "If you want to see a thousand miles away, go to the next level!"
A stone staircase slowly appeared from under Lu Li's feet, rising towards the misty clouds.
The stone steps appeared very quickly, but before they could touch the fairy mountain, the old man on Xiangyun suddenly turned around.
Immediately afterwards, the two fairy boys jumped down from the cloud together and turned into two cranes larger than humans in the air. Their target was not Lu Li and the two of them, but the small courtyard where Qingshui Liuli was.
Lu Li understood that it was because Lan Hua's Liuding God had covered the two of them, and the old Taoist could not see them. In his life of strange changes, the only outsider he saw was Qingshui Liuli.
He turned around and said to Lan Hua: "Fellow Taoist Lan, you go and protect the little unlucky guy. I'll go to this fairy mountain to have a look!"
"My surname is not Lan!"
Lan Hua didn't have time to ask the little unfortunate guy what was going on, and quickly turned around and ran in the direction of where the crane landed.
Lu Li read again: "Wear Xie Gong's clogs on your feet and climb the Qingyun Staircase!"
He put on a pair of shoes made of spiritual energy on his feet and followed the stone steps to Xiangyun in one step, directly facing the old Taoist.
At such a close distance, the old Taoist finally spotted him. He was startled and said inwardly, "Who are you? You dare to break into my fairy gate!"
What answered him was a sword and a sentence: "I want to see what kind of immortal they are ushering in with drums and gongs!"
