Kunlun one millet

More than ten years ago, Zhao Mi went to the altar in Jianjia Pass to practice the law and cure the plague. As a result, he aroused the hatred of the demon gods of the southern land.

However, at that time, Zhao Shu's merits in Buddhist rituals had reached the realm of selflessness and oblivion, and the blessings of the surviving Tianxia Dynasty's laws and regulations, even if the heavens descended from the stars, could make them rebel and return.

In fact, if you really want to calculate it, the damage caused by the fall of the Bo star may be greater than the drastic change in Dongshengdu, but the people in the depths of the southern soil are almost extinct, and almost all of them are lairs occupied by demon gods, full of blood and foul air. , so there were no large numbers of civilian casualties.

But it is impossible for such a star to fall to the ground without any impact.The spies sent by He Qingchen to Jiuli Kingdom sent back news that after the fall of the Bo star, the mountains and rivers in the south shook, and a large area was directly turned into scorched earth. tribes had to move elsewhere.

But now that Zhao Mi came here in person, he found that it was not dilapidated and scorched earth in front of him. He leaned over and fiddled with it, and there was a thick layer of charcoal gray and black mud under the weeds. Burned, turned into charcoal ash and black mud, spread on the ground.

Looking into the distance, Zhao Mi seemed to spread his eyes along the earth. Because of the fall of the star Bo, the surrounding terrain changed drastically. In addition to the complete destruction of the demon god's lair, it also greatly changed the harsh and filthy mountains, rivers, water and soil. .

This result was not in Zhao Mi's expectation, or in other words, who would have thought that the fall of the Bo star would form such a flat and fertile land?The so-called blessing and misfortune depend on each other, which is roughly the case.

Suddenly, Zhao Mi turned to the west and walked for a hundred miles, and saw a village located on the edge of the wilderness, surrounded by a piece of newly cultivated farmland.

But as long as you look closely, you can see that the rice and grass in this farmland are sparse and scattered, the surrounding weeds have not been hoed out, the growth of the rice is not strong, and the tribal natives don't have many iron tools in their hands.

When some natives saw Zhao Mi coming, they couldn't help becoming vigilant. When the tribal leader learned about it, he immediately led a few strong men to intercept him, babbling in Nanman dialect.

Zhao Mi didn't understand at first, but he silently channeled the true spirit and heard it sympathetically, so he naturally understood what the dialect said.

"...outsiders are not welcome here, you leave quickly!" the tribe leader scolded.

"I'm a healer, and I gather medicine in the mountains. I got here because I lost my way, and I can't find my way back." Zhao Mi didn't speak the tribal language, but what these natives heard were ordinary words.

The tribal leader didn't want to pay attention, and was about to order the expulsion, when a strong man beside him persuaded: "Abba, he said he is a doctor, maybe he can treat my mother!"

"Don't make trouble! As long as your mother is sincere enough, Master Tianlong will naturally protect her!" the headman scolded.

The strong man was a little anxious: "But what if Grandma's illness doesn't get better?"

The headman justifiably said: "That's because Master Tianlong asked your mother to take care of her. You should be happy for her."

Listening to the conversation between the father and son, Zhao Mi already knew that this was another settlement heavily poisoned by ghosts and spirits.It's just that this headman is cold and ruthless, and he has no mercy for his wife's illness, and completely entrusts her life and death to ghosts and gods.

"Let's go! If you don't go, don't blame us for being rude!" The headman waved his hands away again and again.

Zhao Mi didn't force it, so he turned around and left, leaving a series of footprints, and spent the night on a high slope in the distance.

……

As the sky was getting dark, Zhao Mi was sitting idle, when he saw a figure approaching quietly.

"What's the matter with you?" Zhao Mi looked ordinary, and turned to see the strong man, showing a shameful expression.

"I, my name is Yanqiu, please don't bear any grudges about Father Baitian's words." The young man asked, "What's your name? Where did you come from?"

Zhao Mi looked at the rice fields in the distance, and made up a casual saying, "My name is Xiansui, and I come from Wuyangzhai."

"Wuyangzhai? I haven't heard of it. It should be far away from us, right?" Yanqiu asked.

"There are many mountains to climb." Seeing that the other party hesitated to speak, Zhao Mi took the initiative to ask, "Did you come to see me because your mother is sick?"

Yanqiu nodded quickly: "That's right! I, my mother is very sick, my whole body is skinny, my face is so pale and blue, please help my mother."

Seeing Yan Qiu burst into tears, Zhao Shu glanced at the village, and roughly guessed that Yan Qiu's mother had an ordinary illness, which could be alleviated with a little medicine, and more care in the future is the key.

But Yan Qiu has been bewitched by ghosts and gods for a long time, and these words may not be trustworthy, so Zhao Mi asked: "Just now I saw your father talking about Master Tianlong, is that the god that your village worships?"

Yan Qiuban doesn't understand: "Master Tianlong is Master Tianlong. During the dry and rainy seasons, the village will offer offerings, begging Master Tianlong to protect our village."

"Have you seen Master Tianlong?" Zhao Mi asked.

Yan Qiu shook his head, Zhao Mi asked again: "Then why does your father think that as long as your mother is sincere enough, Master Tianlong will protect her?"

"Because Dad has met and talked to Master Tianlong." Yan Qiu replied.

In this way, the headman is equivalent to Wu Zhu in the village, but Zhao Mi didn't sense any divine power attached to him, so it can be seen that he is an ordinary person who is not favored by ghosts, gods and evil spirits.

"Since your father can talk to Master Tianlong, why won't you beg for your mother?" Zhao Mi asked again.

Yan Qiu lowered his head: "Abba, he doesn't like Aunt anymore, live with other people."

Zhao Mi nodded slightly. In this wild and remote village, a tribal leader recognized by ghosts, gods and evil spirits can almost take away the women in the village, and there are not many rules of marriage and human relations.

And once the headman gets bored with a certain woman, he naturally won't bother to take care of it, and it's not surprising that he even skimps on food and clothing.Therefore, in this situation, Yanqiu's mother would not be rescued no matter how sincerely she wished to "Master Tianlong".

Ignorance of people's hearts, this is where ghosts, gods and evil spirits do the most harm, not just relying on mana and magic to kill and injure people.

Zhao Mi wanted to test Yanqiu, so he asked again: "But as your father said, if your mother dies, even if you are picked up by Master Tianlong, maybe the soul will fly to a place where there is no worries, food Great place to be rich."

"I, I don't understand." Yan Qiu shook his head and said, "Master Tianlong is so powerful, why does grandma need to serve him? Mother is thinking about Master Tianlong every day, why can't she be saved?"

"Maybe Master Tianlong doesn't care about your mother's life or death." Zhao Mi approached step by step.

Yan Qiu's expression changed, and he blurted out, "If that's the case, why do you have to make an offering to him?"

"Yes, why?" Zhao Mi asked back.

But Yanqiu soon realized that what he said was very wrong, he waved his hands and said, "No, no, I didn't mean that! Master Tianlong, that is, that is..."

Yan Qiu couldn't tell for a long time, Zhao Mi smiled lightly and said, "Okay, take me to see your mother."

"Then you have to follow me closely. If someone finds out, not only will I be punished, but you will probably be fed to the children and grandchildren of Master Tianlong." Yan Qiu was very nervous.

"Do the descendants of Master Tianlong like to eat human flesh?" Zhao Mi asked as he walked.

Yan Qiu showed a look of fear: "Master Tianlong is in charge of dozens of villages around him. If he is disobedient, he will let his children and grandchildren punish us. I have seen people who were gnawed until only a piece of skin was left, which was hung on a pole. No one rushed to collect it until it was pecked by birds."

"Chew? Master Tianlong's children and grandchildren are a bunch of bugs?" Zhao Mi asked.

"Don't! Don't say that... Uh, you can't say that anyway!" Yan Qiu was taken aback, wondering if all the people in the distant village were so bold?

Zhao Mi has already guessed roughly three to five points. This master Tianlong is probably one of the demon gods of the southern land. His original body should be a genus of insects, and he is good at eating viscera.

When it was completely dark, Zhao Mi followed Yan Qiu over the wall of the village and came home in the dark.Zhao Mi's night vision was unobstructed, and as soon as he entered the house, he saw Yanqiu's mother lying on the haystack, moaning in pain.

Zhao Mi took out some herbs from the basket on his back, and he went deep into the southern soil road to collect herbs and identify them. Originally, he just did it casually, but he didn't expect it to be really useful at this moment.

After a little processing, he boiled a bowl of blackened medicinal soup on the stove, and Zhao Mi secretly added a little magic power.Carefully feed Yanqiu's mother, and after a while, she heard soft snoring and fell into a deep sleep.

"Auntie fell asleep. I haven't seen her sleep so soundly." Yan Qiu was very excited, but she didn't dare to speak loudly: "I, I don't know how to thank you, if you don't mind, you can come to me Stay at home for a while, as long as you don't get discovered by others."

"I'm used to walking in the wilderness, so it's okay." Zhao Mi said.

Yanqiu scratched his head, and asked again: "You said you were lost? I don't know how to get to Wuyangzhai, but I can take you to Laoye Mountain."

"What's that place?"

Yanqiu replied, "It's the altar for Lord Tianlong. There is also a big fair near there. Every month, every village in the surrounding area will go to Laoye Mountain to exchange things. The people on the big fair are well-informed. The important people will come here occasionally, and they must be able to find out the way back to Wuyangzhai."

"Oh? A big shot in Yongcui Temple?" Zhao Mi became interested.

"I heard that they are subordinates of the great witch Zhu. Every time they come to Laoye Mountain, everyone will kneel on both sides of the road and dare not lift their heads." Yanqiu explained.

Zhao Mi knew that the great witch Zhu was the goddess of Yongcui Temple, and his subordinates were naturally other witches from Yongcui Temple. When he came to such a remote place, his status was like an imperial envoy.

Ordinarily, the southern land demon god like Master Tianlong is not a subordinate of Yongcui Temple.And the move of Yongcui Temple Wu Zhu to come to Laoye Mountain may indicate that the Nantu demon god has clearly pledged allegiance to the high priest and the big witch Zhu.

"Okay then, let's go to Laoye Mountain." Zhao Mi said.

"Don't worry, the next big fair will be in three days, and I will take you there." Yan Qiu made a promise with a sincere expression.

……

"Laoye Mountain? This name is really rough."

Goddess Yongcui sat on her chariot and listened to Wu Zhu's narration, she couldn't help laughing and said: "It's just a bare-footed golden-backed centipede raised by the Gu ancestors of the South Earth. But he is called Master Tianlong, don't you think this title is a bit silly?"

The young Wu Zhu next to him also smiled and said: "Master Tianlong is located in a remote place, and the tribe that enshrines him is also the most ignorant. Even though he has developed his wisdom early and has been enshrined for a long time, his knowledge and experience are limited after all. But he doesn't like to move. Thousands of years of growth are superficial."

Goddess Yongcui sat reclined, playing with the ends of her hair with her hands: "Although you don't say anything, you all yearn for the prosperity and prosperity of Middle-earth, don't you?"

On both sides of the chariot were young shrine witches who covered their mouths and said with a smile: "In the future, the high priest will rule the world. Is the goddess planning to go to Middle Earth with her?"

"As for me, it depends on how the sacred tree is." The goddess said: "As for you, are you all looking forward to leaving Yongcui Temple? Do you think I don't take you away on weekdays?"

"The goddess said this, as if we are all doing nothing."

"I still don't understand you?" The goddess rolled her eyes, and then looked at a strange mountain not far away, covered with colorful rocks, the color stacks lacked decoration, and it was completely an unsightly mass of mixed rocks.

"It's really ugly." The goddess cursed inwardly. At this time, the chariot had arrived at the market town under Laoye Mountain. The soldiers had already opened the way ahead. The witches on the left and right chanted and sang songs. Countless emerald green leaves fell in midair and spread in front of the chariot. All the way to Laoye Mountain.

On both sides of the road, the soldiers stopped the people from the nearby tribes who came to the market. They all bowed their heads and bowed down. No one dared to look up at the Goddess Yongcui.

In the impression of the goddesses, the goddesses of the Yongcui Temple in the past have always walked among the people of the southern lands, and never showed their noble status.But after being granted the title of Great Witch Zhu, Li Chun said that the ranks and ranks are in an orderly manner, if the high and the low are not determined by etiquette, people's hearts will be chaotic, and it will be difficult for Jiuli Kingdom to change.

Afterwards, when the Goddess travels, it is natural that there must be enough pomp and circumstance, and the witches and blessings of the Yongcui Temple below her also have their own ranks of artifacts, which cannot be overridden.

Seeing the people kneeling down on both sides of the road now, the Goddess felt a little complacent in her heart, perhaps those emperors of Middle Earth enjoyed this kind of enjoyment every day.

Suddenly, out of the corner of the goddess's eyes, she caught a glimpse of a straight figure, and she was shocked to realize that he was an extraordinary person, and he was definitely not an ignorant villager.

The goddess immediately stopped the chariot, turned her head to focus her eyes, but she couldn't see the figure, as if it was just her own illusion.

"What's wrong?" Wu Zhu approached and asked in a low voice.

"I suspect that someone is spying in the dark." The goddess said.

Wu Zhu explained: "Perhaps it is the master Tianlong, who rarely shows up in person. When the nine gods gathered together, it was rumored that they sent worm puppets to pass the news on their behalf."

"I know, it was because of this that it escaped the catastrophe of the Porcupine star falling to the ground." The goddess frowned and scanned the surroundings, but did not find anything unusual, and said: "It's just that the situation is unclear at the moment. I am worried that these spies are lurking nearby."

"This place is far away from the battlefield, wouldn't Xizuo come so far away?" Wu Zhu was puzzled.

"I hope it's just that I'm worrying too much." The goddess waved her hand, "Don't worry, just keep going."
