Chapter 402 How can you believe what the fox says?
Song You stood on the top of Yeshan Mountain and looked into the distance.
Different from Yeshan where the heavy yin and ghost qi caused the sky to be filled with haze before, this time the world is filled with bright spring light, the sun is bright but not burning, and it feels very comfortable when it hits the body.
The scenery around us is completely different.
The original barren mountain has long been broken into pieces, and there are some strange dangers added to the brokenness - there are stone pillars standing on the ground pointing slantingly towards the sky, like the spears and swords left by the giants in ancient myths, and there are also some flying from nowhere.
There are irregular boulders that fell abruptly on the ground and were covered with moss in just a year. There are also mountains with semicircular gaps. The gaps are perfectly round and look nothing like natural formations.
The earth opened into an abyss, filled with river water, as green as jade. In addition, there were lakes of various sizes all over the ground. The small ones were only a few feet wide, or even smaller, and the large ones were more than ten feet or even dozens of feet wide.
They were all depressions made by giants, and now they are all filled with water, either as green as jade or as blue as the sky, with different shades of color, like gems covering the earth.
Like a battlefield of ancient gods.
Song You also saw a human-shaped lake behind Ye Mountain, which was hundreds of feet long and took a long time to circle around. It was also full of water and reflected the blue sky and white clouds.
Farther away, there is a mountain-protecting river that surrounds the entire Yeshan Mountain, with only a stone bridge across the river.
As far as the eye can see, the ground is covered with greenery, and the fruit trees on the mountains are blooming. Where is there any trace of the desolate feeling that once was barren of grass?
"You planted these trees too?" Song You asked the swallow beside him.
"Mr. Hui, the trees I planted have just sprouted. Only these weeds are the seeds I brought, and the trees that grew into trees were planted by the Aoki Immortal." The swallow answered honestly, "One time the Aoki Immortal
Weng came here to deliver a message. Before he left, he said that there was only green grass but no trees, and it was really boring. So he waved his hand, and within a few days, the place was full of trees."
"The Aoki Immortal has great magical powers."
"Yan An often came here to comprehend the wonderful teachings in the tree, and he gained a lot from it."
"You are smart too."
"It's a pity that Yan An is not capable enough and still cannot completely eliminate the influence of Yin Qi and ghost Qi." Yan Zi said, "Other places are already full of flowers, but these grasses grow very slowly."
"I just owe you a spring breeze."
After Song Yu finished speaking, he took a breath and the spring breeze blew across the earth.
"call……"
The greenery in the mountains for tens of miles suddenly became thicker.
"Let's go."
The Taoist took steps forward, retracted his gaze, and walked down the mountain.
This place is already a wonderful scenery, but I don’t know what future generations will see when they come here again thousands of years later. If it is roughly the same as what Song You sees today, I don’t know if people at that time stood there.
How would you imagine this landscape before and how would you answer it?
The Taoist and the bay horse walked slowly down the slope of the mountain, almost walking with the thick white clouds behind the mountain. The calico cat was covered by the grass, and the swallows flew in front of the white clouds.
Wild flowers bloom one after another.
Cats can't help but be attracted to the grass when they walk through it, and swallows are flying in the sky, watching the grass gradually turn into a sea of flowers.
There are two temples in the sea of flowers, located in two places on the mountain.
One is the Temple of the God King Yue, with only one god sitting inside.
The couplet on the door reads:
You seek fame and fortune, but he predicts good or bad luck. I am so heartless, so how can I come up with any ideas?
The palace is filled with smoke and clouds, and the halls are lined with bells and cauldrons. It makes people laugh at the offering of mud and wood, and a lot of money has been wasted.
One was a small, low temple with no name or sign, and inside it was just a rough wooden statue with no mouth, nose, or ears.
There is also a couplet written on the door:
Hell is right in front of you, don't realize it until you commit a crime;
Even though the mirror of karma hangs on the platform, I am still willing to be merciful as long as I can get by.
Yeshan Mountain is huge and the ground is covered with flowers. From a distance, the two temples are really small. There is only a small dot in the sea of flowers, but it is level with the white clouds behind the mountain.
The Taoist led the calico cat and bay horse farther and farther, passing through the lakes and gems all over the ground, and also walked through the wild flowers all over the ground, watching the ripples in the lakes, watching the flying insects shuttle among the flowers, and watching
Seeing the occasional movement of small animals in the originally desolate land, I felt an indescribable sense of satisfaction.
The calico cat came and went, busy with its own affairs, and sometimes returned to the Taoist to talk to him.
"This is the small lake that Sanhua Empress told you about. There are many fish, but they are all small fish and can be caught with a pole. There are many big fish in that lake over there, but they are not so easy to catch."
"I see."
"There are a lot of loaches in this pond. The dried loaches made by Sanhua Empress were caught here. They haven't finished eating yet. They are packed in their pockets."
"Miss Sanhua can also fish."
"They all talked about the loach coming..."
"After all, I'm not as smart as Empress Sanhua."
"right……"
After the cat finished speaking, she jumped out and ran quite far in the grass. However, she didn't find another small animal and wanted to go there to get to know it. Instead, she had already crossed the stone bridge and gradually moved away from Yeshan. She pointed at different animals.
He told him in the direction where he picked mushrooms in the summer, where he caught rabbits, and where he broke branches to use as sticks or fishing rods...
Over the past year or so, she has really worked hard.
Not only did he catch fish by himself, but he also grilled fish for him to eat. He couldn't bear to spend money to buy sugar, so he asked bees to borrow honey. He felt that dried meat was expensive, so he caught rabbits and wild boar to make it himself. Thinking that Taoist priests usually eat meat besides eating meat.
After eating some other random things, I went to pick wild fruits and vegetables for him, pick up mushrooms, and cook gruel, for fear that he would starve.
Even so, the Taoist priest often went without eating or drinking for a long time, which made her very worried.
Song You turned around and took a look, Yeshan was already far away.
When she looked away, the cat turned into a human again and broke off a branch to play with grass. It seemed that she had grown taller, at least this year, she had grown taller than in previous years.
Mostly sad.
…
The only hotel in Zijun County.
It was the same family that the fox had lived with before. There was a hill next to it, and the fox and his maid were waiting for him in the pavilion on the mountain.
Interestingly, the store owner could still recognize him at a glance.
"Sir, here you go again!?"
"The store still remembers me?"
"Remember, of course I remember, it is very rare for an outstanding Taoist priest like Mr. to come from out of town." The store owner looked cheerfully and looked behind him again, "Hey, by the way, Mr.
Aren’t there two fairies traveling with us this time?”
"I came alone this time."
Song You smiled at him. It seemed that he was not impressed by himself, but by the fox and the maid who had extraordinary looks.
"I need a room for the horses and hay."
"okay!"
"Does the store sell wine here?"
"Our small shop here does not sell alcohol, but if your husband wants to drink, I can go to the wine shop and buy it for him. It doesn't matter how much, just give me one or two cents for running errands."
"I don't want to drink. I just want to buy half a bottle of wine and take it with me when I leave. If I meet an old friend along the way, I can treat him to a drink."
"The little man will point you in the direction."
The store owner immediately went out and pointed him in the direction: "Sir, keep walking along this street. There is an alley on the right, which is the wine shop. When you get closer, you can smell the aroma of wine."
"Thank you."
Song You thanked him, then picked up his luggage and went upstairs.
A very simple room, far inferior to the small building in Changjing.
Fortunately, it can be considered a serious house.
Song You put down his luggage, blew on the table and chairs to blow off the dust, and took out "Yu Di Ji Sheng" from his quilt bag.
Unknowingly, this book I bought at Yidu has turned yellow. Even though I took good care of it, the paper inevitably became brittle and the corners were missing.
Song You carefully opened it.
The cat also jumped on the desk, poked its head out from his shoulder, and stared at the book with him.
Not far outside the county town is Yinjiang River, and along the Yinjiang River downstream is Yaozhou. This is a round trip. Song You can skip Zhengxi and take another road. If appropriate, you can also
You can go visit Princess Changping. Although there is no friendship between the two parties, after not seeing each other for a year, you feel a bit like old friends.
I don't know if this person is still alive.
The border between Yaozhou and Langzhou is Zunzhe Mountain, which, like Tianzhu Mountain, is a path for gods to ascend to heaven. Gods who have just become gods have to go to these mountains to report to the heavenly palace.
It is said that there is a piece of land five square meters offshore of Langzhou.
Song You turned his head and glanced at Sanhua Empress. His nose was itchy when her hair poked him. Seeing that she was taking it seriously, he drew lines on the map with his fingers and discussed with her.
"How about we go this way?"
"Can!"
Empress Sanhua looked serious and answered seriously.
"When you get to the beach, you can take Sanhua Empress to catch fish in the sea. I heard that you can also pick up fish on the beach."
"Then people who live by the sea don't eat fish every day?"
"It is said to be so."
"very nice!"
"Ah……"
After passing Langzhou, you will reach Yangzhou.
Yangzhou is prosperous and ranks first in the world.
Song You still drew lines with his fingers and discussed with her.
Empress Sanhua listened especially carefully.
Only after a while, she tilted her head, rubbed her forehead against Song You's ear, and whispered: "Taoist, Sanhua Empress seems to miss the fox and the fox's tail."
"..."
Song You paused for a moment before asking: "Which tail is it?"
“Each one is fun.”
"Which one is more fun than Sanhua Empress's own tail?"
"It's better to have fun on your own!"
"That's it..."
Song You paused again, not knowing what to think. After a while, he smiled slightly and said to her: "It seems that Empress Sanhua has grown a lot this year, and she already knows clearly what missing is."
"It was a Taoist priest who taught me."
"It's also the Sanhua Empress who is smart."
"Really?"
"nature."
"The fox said you were coaxing me!"
"How can you believe what the fox says?"
"Yes..."
The calico cat nodded seriously, then shook his head, jumped down, and continued to take out his ball and play with it.
Early the next morning, he took his horse to sell wine.
There is good wine in this remote town. As soon as you reach the alley, you can already smell the strong aroma of the wine.
Song You bought half a pot of good wine and headed north with him, sat down on the edge of the Yinjiang River, and waited quietly for the arrival of the boatman.
