Chapter 67

Qinan Prefecture, Qu County.

The red sun shines in front of the uneven houses in the early morning. Before the gates of the city are opened, excrement collection trucks pass by the gates of every household. They spend a penny or two to buy the gold juice placed at the gates, sweeping away the filth in the city. Start your day with gas.

When the red sun was slowly rising, water delivery trucks passed by the door of each house one after another. When they saw people with water signs hanging on the door, they stopped and knocked on the door to sell water to the people who had no wells in their homes.

Of course, people facing the river in the city don't need it, they drink the river water.It is rumored that the big river in Quxian County once had a Linghe River where the Dragon King flew to the sky, and the water in the river is naturally Lingshui.

And beside the river, there is a tall Dragon King Temple.

When the morning sun shines on the temple signboard of the Dragon King Temple, you will hear a "creak~", and the red lacquered gate will be pushed open, and a woman in her 30s who is still in her hair will come out.

When a naughty child sees a woman, he will run up to her with a smile on his face, and say to her, "Aunt Yue, I want candy! I want candy."

The woman will smile and take out a small basket from behind the door, which contains some small sugar pills, and she will distribute them to these children.

When the sugar pill was eaten, the sweet feeling went to the heart, and the children would leave after thanking her.

Every first and fifteenth day of the new year, Siyue would send some sugar pills to these poor children to satisfy their hunger.

She looked at the children running through the houses in the sun, and she felt full of innocence.

"Miss Siyue, good morning."

A voice woke her up, but it was the temple across the river, Zhao Banxian was calling her.

Siyue smiled lightly: "Morning, Zhao Miaozhu, you have to be free today?"

"Haha, that's for sure." Zhao Banxian is only forty years old, but he looks very young, with long hair on the temples, wearing a divine robe, quite natural and refined, many female pilgrims often secretly send their hearts to him . "Every first and fifteenth day of the lunar new year, these people all go to worship the city god's land, and our family's god is not allowed to come to worship."

Siyue smiled, "Then why doesn't Zhao Miaozhu join in the fun and watch the Town God's Temple Fair?"

"Hey, how can the Town God's Temple Fair be as lively as our Longliu Temple Fair? The children in this town know: Longliu has no family, and Longliu is a family. Next month is June [-]th, so I have to be busy. I will miss the moon by then. Girl, I'm afraid you won't be able to do it by yourself, but do you need help?"

Siyue declined politely, and said, "It's time to do your homework!"

As soon as she declined, she took the opportunity to go back to the Dragon King Temple.

Zhao Banxian always wants to get close to her at the Liuxian Temple on the other side of the river, and Siyue also understands his thoughts.

However, Zhao Banxian, as Liuxian's apprentice, must belong to the same immortal family if he wants to get married, but in this way, there will be a problem of who will be the master of the two immortal families.

Besides, Siyue has never thought of marrying a mortal again, she made up her mind not to marry in this life, but to serve the Dragon King for life!
The gates of the temples do not close until it is dark and sunset every day. As for thieves and thieves, they dare not come to these two temples to attack them.

Siyue walked back to the temple, sat cross-legged in front of the statue, and silently recited scriptures called "Dragon King Sutra".

"I am facing the heavens at Jishou today, and the treasured tripod burns pure incense. It connects the three realms to the nine heavens, and extends to the five lakes and the four seas. The five famous mountains share the water house, ten continents, three islands and fairy mountains. I wish to cast dharma rain with the light of grace, and spread nectar to help the world. Chang. Incense offerings - all the gods and other gods in the past in the void. At that time, the Taoist Lord used to be above three days to watch the world..."

With her chanting, the scriptures floated to the mountains outside the mountains accompanied by the green smoke curling up in front of the Dragon King statue.

Qingcang has a growing longing for the mountains, rivers and seas, he wants to throw himself into the rivers, lakes and seas to overturn the rivers, to swim in the sea.

The prayer scriptures of the human woman in the temple made him very pleasant to hear, like a dragon falling into a dream, and opened up the world of dragons in his mind.

Finally, one morning, Qing Cang decided to leave.

When the dragon comes out of the Black Mountain and the white clouds rise, the snake pans the ancient pool and the green miasma falls.

Qing Cang came to the Valley of the Snake King and bid farewell to Bai Jun.

Bai Jun sat cross-legged on the boulder, quietly looking at a Taoist scripture, the sun shining on his body was soft and elegant, bringing a sense of tranquility.

Qing Cang fell to the ground and turned into a young man with a green robe like black ink and a face like a crown of jade. He stood quietly behind Bai Jun and dared not speak.

After a long time, the white man on the stone turned a page of the book, and slowly read a line of poetry in the book: "Sixu Nine Layers True Dragon Comes Out, Cleansing the Void of All Ancients. You have grown up and are no longer the little snake you used to be.

You are the divine dragon that will one day occupy the sky, spread the clouds and rain, and the dragon will travel all over the world.

But always remember that you are not born a dragon, but heaven and earth create dragons, and only with the will of heaven and earth can you have your way to transform into a dragon.Therefore, always keep in mind that the dragon is born of heaven and earth, the spirit of heaven and earth, and the god of all living beings. "

Qingcang nodded and said: "Brother's teaching, Qingcang will keep it in mind!"

Bai Jun put down the book in his hand, stood up and walked in front of him, looked at the handsome young man, and said with a chuckle, "The roar of the dragon shakes all the rivers and rivers, and travels across thousands of rivers and mountains. You have survived the mortal world. You may be able to withstand the many dangers in the future?"

"I will never forget my original intention and live up to my brother's entrustment." Qing Cang said solemnly.

"Heh~" Bai Yan smiled: "It doesn't matter if you can't do it.

Just walk, looking ahead, there is light on the road.Looking back, there is me behind me. "

Qing Cang's eyes were touched, and he knelt down to Bai Jun, "Elder brother is like a father, Qing Cang travels far away, I hope you will cherish him!"

Bai Jun smiled and said, "Go, mountains and rivers are waiting for you."

Qing Cang turned into a dragon and went straight into the pool, startling a pool of water.

Standing in the sunshine, Bai Jun smiled and said to himself, "When the child grows up, he will have time to travel far."

Qing Cang swam from a small pool in the deep mountains to a big river, and went retrograde all the way north to Qu County, his starting point of transforming into a dragon.

On this day, Zhengxing Human World is June [-]th.

There are people coming and going on the street, and it is very lively.There is an endless stream of pilgrims in front of the Dragon King Temple and Liuxian Temple on the riverside. Outside the temples, hawkers from all walks of life set up stalls in the alleys.

Some old people made some dragons, willow sugar figurines, and small shadow puppets, which aroused the joy of the children.There are also all kinds of pendant jewellery, each of which is hand-woven by them, and the red thread needles are full of hard work.

Also in the river, there are dragon and willow boat shows, dragon boats and willow houses, dragon boats play in the water, willow houses sing long songs, and female singing girls stand in front of the gods.

The children carried all kinds of paper dragon fish lanterns and long willow scarves, running in the streets and alleys, singing familiar songs: "Beside the Qu River, worship the dragon and willow. The willow is in front and the dragon is behind. The fairy is safe , Wang Changxing. Liuxian is rich, and Dragon King is expensive. Longliu is not separated, and Longliu is a family."

On this day, the Longliu Temple was full of incense, and Qu Chenghuang in Dongtou was eager to see it, but few pilgrims came.

On this day, Siyue was busy until the evening, and the pilgrims had gradually dispersed. The setting sun passed through the gate of the Dragon King Temple and shone on the tall Dragon King statue.

Siyue rubbed her waist, even if there is no fortune-telling job in the Dragon King Temple, she is too busy to take in a few disciples, but the girl's family is hard to support, if there are any supernatural powers, most of them will be thrown away as evildoers buried, buried, drowned...

She was just about to close the temple door, but saw a slender hand blocking the door, and a clear voice came: "Pilgrims are coming, why doesn't the temple welcome them?"

Siyue was taken aback for a moment, since the other party said this, she had no choice but to open the door and let him burn the incense stick.

"In this case, the pilgrims should come in quickly, the Dragon King God doesn't like offering incense at night."

A young man in a green robe walked into the temple, looking at a green dragon with a dragon head, long horns and a snake body in the tall Dragon King Temple, he was a little dazed.

"Here, let's offer incense. If you come late, I won't charge you for incense, and the poor in the Dragon King Temple can afford it." Siyue handed him a stick of incense.

The young man looked at the incense handed to him for a moment, and pointed to himself in surprise, and then pointed to the incense again, "Want me to offer the incense?"

"Young master, what are you doing in the Dragon King Temple if you don't offer incense?" Siyue looked at him strangely.

"No need, I'm just curious about the Dragon King Temple, so come in and have a look."

The boy waved his hand and turned to leave.

Siyue sighed: "Which family is this young master who is so ignorant? After the incense is lit, there is no reason not to worship."

As she spoke, she raised the incense and knelt down, inserting it in the incense sandalwood.When he was about to get up, he suddenly found something in the futon where he was kneeling.

Siyue reached out to open the futon suspiciously, but it was a cyan scale.

She was taken aback, where did this come from?

By the way, that boy just now!
Siyue hurriedly ran out of the temple gate, looked around but found that the young man was no longer there, only the lights outside the gate were brightly lit, and men and women by the river lit Longliuhe lanterns to illuminate the Quhe River.

She firmly held Qing Lin in her hand, and murmured to herself: "It must be the Dragon King! It must be the Dragon King God himself!"

……

The continuous flow of lights is like the never-ending years.

Life is short for dozens of years, and it seems like a big dream.

When the morning sun rose and shone in front of some old temple gates, a gray-haired old woman opened the temple gate, and the children in front of the gate waited and shouted again: "Mother Moon, Mother Moon, I want candy! Candy!"

A smile appeared on Grandma Yue's wrinkled face, "Don't worry, don't worry. Xiaoyue, come out and get candy for the children."

"Hey, okay." A smart girl of fifteen or sixteen, carrying a small basket, went to the children and grabbed handfuls of sugar pills.

On the other side of the river, the old Zhao Banxian yelled: "Moon lady, why are you so lazy today?"

Granny Yue smiled and said, "I'm old, I'm old. From now on, I'll let Xiaoyue come out to hold incense."

"Yeah, then I should let the disciples become teachers."

Beside the Qu River, the Longliu Temple has been handed down year after year. The mother-in-law lived for 99 years, and she was just short of one hundred. It is said that such a person is blessed, because the missing last year will be counted in the next life The October of reincarnation.

A hundred generations change to a new sky, and the king of Hades doesn't keep anyone.

……

In Fengdu Country, in a big river, the water is surging, the wind and rain are pouring, at the bottom of the river, a catfish spirit is fighting for life and death with a green python that is half dragon and half snake...

In the Valley of the Snake King, the white scorpion settled in the years is almost [-] years old.

His demon power practice has also reached 600 years, but he has not attracted the catastrophe of transformation.

Bai Yan was not in a hurry either, he continued his ordinary life of cultivation like a hundred years ago.

Until, one morning, Bai Jun took down the gourd and the true sun mirror hanging in the cave and walked out of the mountain. The thick mountain fog retreated spontaneously on both sides of him, opening a clearly visible mountain road.

In the outer mountains, two herbal pickers carried bamboo baskets and climbed the steep slopes of the mountain in search of herbs.

"Brother Daheng!" One of the younger herb pickers approached the older one and whispered, "Brother Daheng, do you feel something is staring at us?"

Daheng was digging a white-bearded grass, and when he heard this, his back felt cold, the sun and shadows intertwined in the forest at noon, and the time when the yang energy was at its peak was also the time when it was most likely to have evil energy.

When peasant children want to go out to play at noon, they will be strictly ordered to stop by their parents and elders, especially in summer.There is a saying among farmers that "the head of the noon, the ghost shows its head." At this time, the yang energy is the heaviest and the yin energy is the heaviest in some places.

Because of Yusheng's words, Daheng broke into a sweat, "Yusheng, don't talk nonsense."

"No, Brother Daheng, I really feel something is staring at my back." The young Yusheng said with a trembling voice.

Daheng tried to muster up his courage after hearing this, and patted him on the shoulder: "Don't be afraid, brother is here."

As he spoke, he tried his best to yell: "Where did you come from, a filthy bastard with no conscience, call your grandpa, I caught you and stuffed you in the shit basin..."

A sound of rude and insulting shouts echoed in the mountains and forests, echoing human voices, as if gaining some popularity.

Daheng felt someone pat him on the shoulder, and he turned around and said, "What's wrong, Yusheng?"

He looked back, only to find that Yusheng behind him had disappeared.

Daheng's heart twitched suddenly, he felt that his breathing was going to be stagnant, since Yusheng was gone, who was patting him on the shoulder just now?

A burst of cold air rushed from the soles of his feet to his brain, and without thinking about it, he continued to yell and curse loudly, non-stop saying all the curse words he knew in his life, until he was so tired that his throat was smoking Just stopped to rest.

Farmers' rumors: When encountering unclean things, insulting them loudly will let those things know that they are not easy to mess with and retreat.

The echoes of his insults echoed all around, as well as the sound of Hang Seng's breathing.

"Cuckoo~"

A child's voice laughed, faintly mixed with the echo of Hang Seng's insults.

Hang Seng's hair stood on end in an instant, and the courage he had built up was finally vented.

He shouted in horror: "Yusheng! Yusheng! Where are you? Is there anyone? Help! Help!"

Even if he didn't see anything, Hang Seng was so frightened that he fled crazily in the forest.

"Huchi~hu~hu~"

After running for a long time, Hang Seng was so tired and sweated profusely that the chill on his body dissipated a lot. He thought he should run away now, right?

But when he looked up, he suddenly found that the surrounding area was still the place where Yusheng disappeared just now.

"Whoo~"

A gust of wind blew, and the collision between the branches and leaves made soft "rustling" sounds, as if something was scurrying back and forth among the forest leaves.

"Cuckoo~"

The strange voice sounded again, this time it was more clear and real. Daheng looked back around in horror, feeling that the laughter was getting closer, as if something was rushing towards him from an unknown angle of view.

People's perception is so strange, and they can always predict something even though they haven't seen it. This kind of horror is even more frightening.

"woooooooo~"

The baby's laughter turned into cries, and the sun around the forest was covered by layers of dark mist at some point, and noon turned into midnight!

"Ah~!"

A sharp and ear-piercing strange sound suddenly sounded, from far to near, a pale palm with slender fingers stretched out from behind his head, covering his eyes.

At this moment, Daheng felt his chest suddenly warm up, he hurriedly took it out, it was an amulet, his mother begged it from the Liuxian Temple a few days ago!
The yin energy around him receded a lot in an instant, and the palms protruding from the back of his head also disappeared.

Daheng was so frightened that he almost collapsed, he firmly held the last life-saving talisman, and walked out in horror.

At this moment, a sound of breathing came from behind.

"Brother Daheng, wait for me! Wait for me!"

He looked back, but saw Yusheng walking over with a limp, "Brother Daheng, I couldn't stand still just now, and I rolled down and passed out. Brother Daheng, why do you look so ugly?"

Daheng was trembling all over. Seeing that it was Yusheng, he seemed to have something to rely on. After all, one person is different from two people.

"Brother Daheng, come and help me, my leg is hurt and I can't walk."

Daheng hurriedly said: "Good! Good!"

He took two steps, then stopped suddenly, and his heart ached again.

"What's the matter? Brother Daheng?" Yu Sheng asked suspiciously, "Come here soon?"

"Yusheng." Daheng said with a trembling voice, "You...why didn't your words echo?"

"Ah? Is that so?" Yu Sheng suddenly laughed.

Daheng backed away in horror, his eyes were already bloodshot.

Yu Sheng smiled lowly and said, "After all, it's the first time I've been a human being, and I can't remember everything."

In the end, his voice had become immature, like a baby's voice.

In the mountains, Bai Yun was wearing a gourd around his waist, and the sun mirror was on his chest, and he was walking calmly in the mountains with his flute in his hands.

However, I don't know when I was walking, the clouds and mists became darker, the sky light disappeared, and it seemed to be in the middle of the night for a while.

Bai Jun remained unmoved and continued to move forward slowly.

"Cuckoo~"

The immature child's laughter came out, accompanied by the cry like a night cat's spring, the combination of crying and laughing made people feel horrified.

Suddenly, the strange sound increased a lot, and it was extremely ear-piercing, and something wrapped in the dim mist rushed towards it.

Bai Jun stopped in his tracks, and glanced sideways at the mist when he regained his composure.

The strange screams stopped in an instant, and the fog receded, but the sky was still dim like a netherworld.

On the west side of Wanshe Mountain, hundreds of miles away, there is an old locust tree, under the root of which is buried a woman's body, and there are small earthen bags, each of which is a little baby girl.

The woman under the locust tree was still pregnant with three children, and was tortured to death for nine days and nights by a Gu insect that penetrated into her body and devoured the flesh and blood of her heart.

A man covered in dirty blood let out a creepy smile, "Ghost Mother Gu, I will take you to explore the way first, don't let me down, or your three children will suffer a lot!"

The branches and leaves of the old pagoda tree swayed slightly, and a crow flew down on the branch.

 I'm sorry, I was working on internships and onboarding all day yesterday. I really didn't have time to code. I was too sleepy to code at night. I slept for a while and woke up at [-] o'clock this morning. There may be some typos. You can correct me later will be amended.
