I am a fairy

Chapter 12: The Fairy Under the Lamp

Precarious.

Dappled shadows.

Several figures were holding extinguished lanterns and walking along a mountain path that had been opened up and walked by countless generations of people. Although they couldn't see too far, they didn't lose their way along the way.

The cold wind and icy rain hit their bodies, and several people were shivering with cold.

But at this moment, sounds and movements came from the mountains behind him.

The sound was originally suppressed by the wind and rain, but then it became more and more obvious and was noticed by several people.

First there was a sound as if a huge object hit a stone wall, and the earth shook.

“Boom boom…”

That was the sound of a mudslide turning and hitting the mountain.

Then, the sound of a rushing river approached.

“Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle, sizzle!”

Although they couldn't see it, they felt their hearts tighten when they heard the sound.

The young man from the Jia family turned around and made a frightened sound.

"coming."

"There really is a dragon. I heard the dragon roaring."

No need to rush.

Their speed immediately increased.

Everyone stumbled forward, completely ignoring the wind and rain blowing towards them.

The road was not far and did not take too long, but the group felt that it was particularly long.

Fortunately, they were not far from the exit of the mountain. They passed through the shade of trees and arrived at the riverside.

but.

When we got here, we could already see the traces of the "mud dragon" behind us.

The terrifying "dragon head" rose high in the dark night.

It roared, sweeping up all kinds of debris.

The leading girl led them and continued to run forward, looking back and pointing at the ferry in the distance.

"To the ferry!"

"There is a boat at the ferry, let's get on it!"

They also didn't know where the mud dragon was going or which direction it would flood.

Several people ran towards the ferry, where there were black-sailed boats and ferrymen. The ferrymen on the boats often lived on the boats and regarded the boats as their home.

When I crossed the wooden ferry, the ferryman on the boat had already woken up.

Of course, he also heard the "dragon roar" in the mountains, and saw the person running towards him and shouting while standing on the boat.

"quick!"

"Come up quickly."

The group of five people did not delay at all and got on the boat one after another, hand in hand.
-
In the cabin.

Jiang Chao was packing up his things. He inserted a light tube into a glass cover, twisted it on and closed it, making a portable lantern.

Jiang Chao turned on the switch and the light came on.

At this time, the big screen in the cabin also lit up, and the artificial intelligence Wangshu appeared in front of Jiang Chao. Wangshu's clothes were fluttering, and the scenery behind him turned into a scene of raindrops passing by, as if foreshadowing that it would rain today.

Wangshu: "Do you want to go out and take a look?"

Jiang Chao: "Well, go out and take a look."

Wangshu: "You can watch it at home."

Jiang Chao: "That's different."

Wangshu said: "The mudslide will flow out from here and into the Yangtze River. You can see it at the door, but it may be dangerous to go out, and you are not fully recovered yet."

Jiang Chao nodded: "I know, just look at the door."

Jiang Chao set out with a lamp in hand, walking all the way outside. The heavy cabin door automatically rotated and opened little by little, and then he passed through the dark passage.

Press the switch and the stone wall will start to flip.

What greeted us was the cold wind and icy rain at night.

Lifting the lantern, the light reflected in the wind, you can see the raindrops dancing in the wind, like countless strands of golden threads swimming.

Jiang Chao then walked forward and hung the lantern on the wall.

then.

Sat down in the cave.

After a while, a loud noise was heard in the distance, and the ground was shaking slightly.

The noise was getting louder and louder. Jiang Chao leaned forward slightly and looked towards the other side of the cave.

Then, a "mud dragon" was seen gushing out from the canyon on the mountain road, having swallowed up rocks, jungles, wild beasts and villages.

“Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle, sizzle!”

Accompanied by the sound of water that was amplified countless times, the "mud dragon" turned a corner in the mountain and rushed into the Yangtze River just in front of Jiang Chao. Jiang Chao sat deep in the cave and watched quietly.

The seemingly unstoppable dragon that was wreaking havoc in the mountains and rivers was truly like a mud dragon entering the river in front of the mighty Yangtze River. No matter how much of it surged out, it would instantly melt into the river water without a trace.

And the other side.

The black-sailed boat also left the ferry and entered the river in the wind and rain.

Although the river was extremely dangerous at this moment, they finally avoided the most terrifying first wave of impact when the mud dragon entered the river.

However, as the mud dragon crossed the mountains and entered the river, and with the incessant wind and rain, the river water began to rise and fall continuously.

The small black-sailed boat was swaying in the river.

It could capsize at any time as long as a wave hits it.

The people on the boat, whose souls had just calmed down, were frightened out of their wits by the waves that kept rising.

The boatman fell against the side of the boat and said, "It's over. Today we will all be buried at the bottom of the river and become food for the fish."

The servants also seemed at a loss: "It seems that God wants to take us away. What can we do?"

The maid was so frightened that she was trembling with fear. She just hugged her feet and huddled under the black sail and cried. However, her sobs were completely drowned out by the sound of wind, rain and waves, and could not be heard at all.

The young man with a golden lock around his neck tightly grasped his sister's hand and said with a pale face.

"Sister, we won't die here, right?"

The girl's clothes were soaked. She hadn't noticed it when she was running for her life, but now she sat down in fear. The chill that had been pierced into her body by the icy rain and cold wind seemed to surge up all at once.

You can see that her face is pale but with a hint of red, and her body is shaking constantly, but she is still comforting her brother.

"No, it's okay, we'll be fine..."

But under such power and disaster of heaven and earth, such comfort seems more fragile than the raindrops and thinner than the wind.

At this moment, it is not themselves who decides their life or death, but the illusory will of heaven.

But at this moment, they noticed a light appearing on the river bank.

In the dark night.

The light was so conspicuous.

"Look over there, there's light."

Everyone looked over.

The boat is rocking, the river is rocking, the wind and rain are rocking,
A strong sense of uneasiness surrounded them from all directions, wrapping around them like a snake, trying to drag them to the shaking bottom of the river.

At this moment, only the light was shining steadily and unwaveringly from the other side of the river bank.

The boatman stood up and exclaimed, "There really is light. Where does the light come from in this pitch-black darkness?"

Servant: "What is that light? How can it be so bright?"

Another servant: "Like the full moon."

The boatman also looked over carefully: "See? There is someone sitting under the light."

The girl heard the shouts of others and looked towards the other side of the river in a daze.

She also saw the figure.

The other person was sitting upright in the depths of the cave, and the light was emanating from behind him, like a halo reflected behind him.

The light is white, soft and quiet, making people feel at ease.

It seems that even if you die in a river, as long as you can see the light, you can be saved and escape from suffering.

It will also guide you to the underworld for reincarnation, and you will not become a wandering ghost in the world.

The young man from the Jia family also stood up. He had better eyesight and saw more clearly.

At first glance, he recognized who it was.

"God...immortal..."

"The gods have appeared!"

"Sister, this is the deity we met last time. The deity has appeared again."

The light continued to spread, shining on the shore and on the river.

The endlessly surging mud dragon passed under the cave and merged into the river, but the figure sitting in the cave remained motionless even as such a ferocious dragon passed in front of it.

just like.

He was sitting on a dragon, subduing the opponent and sending it into the river little by little.

This moment.

Many images came to mind for everyone except the boatman.

That person said it was going to snow, and then it really snowed.

The man said there was a dragon, and the dragon really came out.

A wheel-like light was reflected behind him, and just like when they first met, they looked at each other again from the river, without any trace of worldly air.

All that is left is the ethereal and transcendental thing that can only be seen from afar but not approached.

Like the celestial beings descending to the mortal world.

Like a real immortal descending to the earth.
