[Shen Wang] Banana deer

In normal times, a corner of a thatched roof and a wisp of green smoke are nothing more than ordinary things, but at this moment, in Wang Lianhua's eyes, there is vitality and the brilliance of hope flashing.

He almost jumped up and exclaimed: "Is there someone? How can there be someone in such a place?"

Shen Lang said with a smile: "Go and have a look, can't you know." Then he raised his feet and walked towards the hillside.

The three of them climbed up the hillside and saw a wide meadow behind the hillside, with a small thatched hut standing in it.At this moment, the owner of the hut must be cooking, and green smoke is blowing from the chimney.Beside the thatched hut, three yaks and two horses ran leisurely and chased, grazing with their heads down, snorting from time to time, and the sound came clearly.

It was actually a peaceful and peaceful pastoral scene.

It seems that they are not in the same world as the evil bugs in the magic circle before, which makes people unbelievable.

Lin Hexian wondered: "Could it be that there is really someone living here? But how did he come up here?"

I am afraid that no one can answer this question except the master here.

When I came to the hut, I felt that the hut was simple.The wooden door is narrow and dilapidated, the khaki-colored walls are full of potholes, and the eaves are low, showing an old scorched black color, as if it has experienced countless wind and rain here.

Who will be inside, is it an enemy or a friend?

Shen Lang glanced at Wang Lianhua, Wang Lianhua nodded slightly, and had already pinched three silver needles with cold light between his fingers.

Shen Lang stretched out his hand to knock on the door, and after a long while, the small broken door opened unsteadily.

The silver needle in Wang Lianhua's hand did not move.

Out of it was a young man.A thin young man, to be exact.

He looked like he was in his early thirties, and in the cold winter months, he was still wearing a thin short jacket, which was washed white and had patches sewn on it. It seemed that his life was very poor.

He gave the impression that he was thin.

His face is pale, his cheeks are sunken, his chin is pointed and thin, and his short mustache has not been trimmed, making him look even more unrefined.He is also as slender as a bamboo pole, as if he has never had enough food for decades.

Although he was mentally prepared when he heard the knock on the door, he opened his mouth wide in shock when he saw the three people, and was speechless for a while. He didn't expect that there were three people here, and each of them had a beautiful face. Handsome, dragon and phoenix among people.

One of the women, with picturesque eyebrows, bright and charming, has a shallow smile, and is very gentle, really has the appearance of a fish falling into a wild goose, and a crescent moon shy.

Standing beside her is a young man with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, handsome as a jade tree facing the wind, with a gentle face, the corners of his lips are slightly raised, and there seems to be a three-point smile when he is not smiling. The smile is lazy, as if he doesn't care about anything, but look I love it so much that I can't tell.

Beside the handsome boy, there was another handsome boy, but his feeling was totally different from him.This handsome young man is somewhat beautiful, his face is like jade, his eyes are clear, as bright as cold stars, there is a hidden glint leaking out, his lips are bright and his teeth are bright, his smile seems to be romantic.

Shen Lang saw that the owner of the hut was in a daze, and said with a bow: "The three of us passed by here, so we are bothering you."

The owner of the hut was puzzled and said, "Lao Shan asked you to come here."

Shen Lang Wang Lianhua looked at each other, knowing that he had found the right path, he couldn't help but secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

Wang Lianhua smiled and said: "It was Lao Shan who asked us to come." As he spoke, he took out Lao Shan's medicine bottle and shook it in front of the scholar.

The owner of the hut let out a calm oh, let the door open, and led the three of them into the house.

The room was cramped, with a fire burning in the middle, and a dark tea stove was hanging above the fire, and the fragrance of Chen Yun tea was wafting out. After the three of them entered, they felt quite cramped, so they had to sit close together on the floor.

The owner of the hut poured tea for the three of them. The tea was Pu'er tea, which is abundant in Yunnan. It was light red in color and was served in an earthen bowl.

Wang Lianhua said: "We have no choice but to come to Jade Dragon Snow Mountain to fetch the rare and rare flowers. If I can get help from seniors, I will be very grateful. Xiao Ke first asks seniors about Gao's surname and name."

The owner of the hut said: "Call me Amu, I am the second-generation mountain guard of this mountain. Since you have come here, Laoshan must have explained to you very clearly about the snow mountain."

Wang Lianhua didn't know what to say for a moment, she couldn't help but look at Shen Lang.

Shen Lang sighed: "To be honest with Senior Amu, although we know Senior Lao Shan, we haven't heard a single word from him. He had promised to make preparations for our trip, but before he could explain in detail, he was murdered. "

"Ah" Amu was shocked, "Who was murdered?"

Shen Lang sighed: "Senior Lao Shan was really troubled by us. The person who killed him didn't want him to tell us the situation of the snow mountain, so as to prevent us from taking the snow mountain Youtan, so he secretly murdered him."

Amu was stunned for a moment, then sighed: "Life and death are fate, and this is also his fate. He often said that he should have died 20 years ago. Now it's just a few more years of stealing." Although his words are free and easy, but The corners of his eyes were still wet, and he lowered his head and wiped them gently.

The three of them didn't know how to comfort them, so they could only sit quietly with their eyes lowered.

After a while, Amu calmed down and asked doubtfully, "Since you didn't get Laoshan's help, how did you get here?"

Shen Lang said: "We broke the nine-star situation that day, and by chance, we got a bottle of insect repellent powder from Laoshan's house, so we were able to escape from the poisonous hands of Jinhuan Liuying."

Amu Zan said: "It seems that you are not only unparalleled in resourcefulness, but also very lucky."

Amu said again in a deep voice: "Although it is the flowering period of the epiphyllum now, but in recent years, the climate has changed, and the epiphyllum growing in the crevices of the steep rocks in the fan has become increasingly rare. I hope you can still see that one after you go up. Two."

Shen Lang said: "No matter what, we have to go up to find out."

Amu nodded slightly, and said: "But the road ahead is really difficult."

Shen Lang said seriously: "I would like to hear the details."

Amu said, "This Jade Dragon Snow Mountain was originally a charming tourist attraction. At that time, there was neither the silent forest, nor the golden ring fireflies, nor a mountain guard like me. But 30 years ago , everything changed."

Seeing him stop, Wang Lianhua hurriedly asked: "How to change?"

Amu said: "It starts with the owners of Lijiang City, the Naxi people. The Naxi people are the native people of Lijiang and have ruled Lijiang for hundreds of years. This people has a strict hierarchy and many rules. There is a high priest in the family, and the status is respected. The Naxi people The family has a tradition that has been passed down for hundreds of years. If a man and a woman love each other, they need to go to the high priest for divination. The cruel punishment of burning the man and woman was carried out. The Naxi people believe that if they do not burn those couples who do not receive the blessings of the heavens, they will offend the gods."

"However, love is born from the heart, and how can it be predicted by the astronomical phenomena? Among them are some lovers who are deeply in love, but they can't get the blessing of God's will, so they have to walk together to this Yunshanping They decided that jumping off this cliff was not death, but going to the Jade Dragon Third Kingdom."

"Jade Dragon Third Kingdom" Wang Lianhua wondered: "What kind of place is that?"

A Mudao: "According to the records of the Dongba Classic, in the third country of Yulong, there are endless silks and satins, endless fresh fruits and treasures, endless wine and sweet milk, endless gold sand and silver clusters, and fiery red spotted tigers. Silver-horned deer to cultivate, broad-eared foxes to be hunting dogs, and golden pheasants to herald the dawn. Couples who die together believe that as long as they jump off the love-breaking cliff, they can go to the beautiful and happy third country of Yulong, and they can live forever. Stay together forever."

Wang Lianhua said: "This story is cruel and touching, but I don't know what it has to do with the changes in this snow mountain."

Amu said: "For hundreds of years, these lovers have flown down from the edge of the cliff, no one knows whether they have gone to the third country, but their resentment towards the world has stayed in this place. On the majestic snow mountain, the resentment attracted Jinhuanliuying. They all said that those evil insects were transformed from the ghosts of hell. Since then, those who came up to play have never returned. The priests of the Naxi tribe discovered this. , in the dense forest, the nine-star formation of the heavenly disk was set up, turning it into a silent forest, so as to prevent people from going up the mountain, so as to avoid accidents. The responsibility of the mountain guards is to protect these formations. Laoshan is the first generation of mountain guards. After guarding for more than ten years, my body is getting weaker and weaker, so I was found to take over."

Shen Lang sighed: "So that's the case, it's just that the Pan Jiuxing Formation has been destroyed by us that day."

Amu said: "It's okay, I will restore it after you go down the mountain."

Shen Lang said: "I don't know if I can ask Senior for another bottle of insect repellent powder. We have used up the bottle of Laoshan."

Amu took out a small porcelain bottle from behind and handed it over, saying: "You just need to sprinkle it on your body, and it will protect you at night from the Blue Moon Valley where the evil insects gather."

Shen Lang was about to pick it up, but Wang Lianhua put the small porcelain bottle into her sleeve first.

Shen Lang smiled lightly, and asked again: "I don't know what kind of dangers are there in the next journey?"

Amu said: "Come with me." As he spoke, he went out first.

At this moment, the sun is high and the sun is strong.

The three of them followed Amu to the depths of the meadow, turned over a small hill, and when the sun was already slanting to the west, they finally saw another wide and flat meadow in front of them.

The setting sun fell on the tip of the snow-capped mountain, and in the dim afterglow, circular stone pagodas were dotted across the meadow. The stone pagodas were made of thin stone slices, just like the nine in the silent forest.

The stone towers are arranged in a straight line along the meadow, and the tops of the towers are connected by thin ropes, like a chessboard with only horizontal lines but no vertical lines, one by one, dividing the meadow into slender yellow-green blocks.

Blue, white, red, green, and yellow prayer flags are hung on the thin ropes, which are colorful and cover the meadow.There are mysterious and strange black symbols painted on the prayer flags, which look like words and paintings, but they don't know what they mean.

The colorful prayer flags trembled in the wind, whistling, as if someone was reciting scriptures in a low voice.

After dozens of prayer flags passed by, I saw a line of cliffs, like the end of the earth.

Behind the cliff is a long and narrow abyss. On the abyss, there is a stone bridge connected by huge stones. The shape is random, and there is no trace of artificial penetration, which is obviously natural.

Behind the abyss, there are numerous glaciers born from the snow, a block of glaciers that are hacked by knives and axes, and stand thousands of feet high, like sharp knives, piercing the pure blue sky.

The white glacier rushes towards the face, crystal clear, exuding dazzling light under the blazing sun.They stand awe-inspiringly on the snow-capped mountains, like the patron saints of this world.

Looking at this majestic picture scroll carefully drawn with heaven and earth as the brush, it is both shocking and frightening.

Amu said: "To get Youtan, you need to pass through this piece of Yunshanping."

Shen Lang murmured: "I don't know what is so mysterious about this prayer flag."

Amu said: "These prayer flags are also formations set up by the Naxi people to suppress the souls of those who died in love, but since those couples have made the determination to die, it can be seen how unwavering their relationship is. After leaving, The resentment is so great. Therefore, these prayer flags cannot be completely suppressed, and if people walk into it, they will be affected by resentment."

"According to Lao Shan, if the person who walks into it has a pure mind and is ruthless and loveless, he only needs to stabilize his mind, and he can pass through safely. Madness. If a pair of people who love each other with all their heart walk into it together, they will empathize with those resentment who died for love, and both of them will walk into the situation that is beyond redemption. In fact, since the establishment of the magic circle, no one has ever entered it But, just because we are human, how can we truly be ruthless and loveless?"

"Loveless and loveless." Shen Lang muttered.

Amu said again: "However, as long as you pass the stone bridge on Duanqing Cliff, you are close to success. You only need to climb up the ice tower forest, and you will be able to reach the place where the snow mountain Youtan grows—the fan is steep, as for you Whether you have the fate to get it depends on God's will."

Shen Lang bowed his head in thought, but stopped talking, and Lin Hexian also showed worry.

Only Wang Lianhua smiled and said: "It sounds very relaxed, but I think you two seem to be worried." He sighed again on purpose, and said with a smile: "Fortunately, I, Wang Lianhua, am alone, and I can be regarded as heartless. No more love." After finishing speaking, he strode towards the meadow.

Shen Lang frowned slightly, and bowed to Amu to express his gratitude. Following Wang Lianhua walked forward, Lin Hexian hurriedly followed.

Amu watched the three figures gradually plunge into the colorful sea of ​​flags, and sighed quietly: "Loveless is not like passionate, and an inch is worth tens of thousands of strands. When there is a limit to the end of the world, there is only endless love."
