Ghosts are not evil

"Qiancao, who is that person on Lushan Mountain, who always sits under the tree and counts how many fruits he picked today, and counts for a day." Qibao sat on the chair, swinging his legs, and asked him with a small face.

"She, she is the mountain god of Lushan Mountain." Chikusa sat on a chair and embroidered the costume stitch by stitch.

"Is the mountain god like that, does she have nothing else to do?"

With a smile on his face, Qiancao said leisurely, "Mountain gods are just like people, there are all kinds of people, each busy in their own way."

Curious babies have [-] whys: "Why is she sitting there counting fruit?"

Chikusa embroidered peonies: "Let me tell you a story."

She was originally a spirit stone from Lushan Mountain. She was transformed by the spirit of heaven and earth. She is the son of heaven and earth. She was born with supernatural powers.

She doesn't understand good and evil, it is heaven and earth that endowed her with such supernatural power, she was not taught what is good and evil, so she was asked to distinguish between right and wrong.

The gods in the sky set a divine name for her, named Shulu, and named her the God of Lushan Mountain, and she was not allowed to step out of Lushan Mountain for life, so as not to cause harm to the world.

Born to be free, but because of his natural talent, he was imprisoned in Lushan Mountain. From then on, he only saw the scenery of this mountain and knew the four seasons of this mountain.

Can understand people's hearts, but have no one to accompany them, whether it is sorrow or joy, there is no way to know.

200 years ago, after the prime minister of the Northern Kingdom left, the court was full of traitors and sycophants, and the people were in dire straits. The Eastern Daqing Kingdom sent troops to capture the thirteen counties in the southern part of the Northern Kingdom. Most of the southern families moved westward. Martyrdom.

The first son of the Qiao family has only one daughter, named Qiao Yunxian, small character Sangsang, who is fifteen years old, just in her prime, her mother couldn't bear it, and ordered the servant and the young lady to go across Lushanxi to seek refuge.

Qiao Yunxian and his entourage met a bandit at the foot of Lushan Mountain. They scattered all their money but could not escape the disaster. The bandit was greedy for the lady's beauty and wanted to do something wrong. The servants tried their best to protect the lady and fled to the mountain.

It is said that there are mountain ghosts in Lushan, and the surrounding people all take a detour. The bandits first came here, and they have never heard of them. They chased into Lushan, but they disappeared.

Qiao Yunxian fled in a hurry, stumbled and fell into the valley, and met the mountain god Shulu at night.

On the ancient trees of the sky stretching across the cliff, the girl sits with her knees down, like the fragrance of orchids, which is fascinating.

Shu Lu sat on a tall tree, playing with the fairy that Qiao Yunxian couldn't see.

Qiao Yunxian didn't have psychic eyes. She was scratched by exposed rocks all the way and rolled down the valley. She was already covered in bruises and bruises. The pain almost tore her consciousness. She wanted to live, even if she pinned this glimmer of hope on illusion: "Help I…"

Shu Lu lowered his eyes and gave her a look.

Qiao Yunxian stretched out his hand to her with difficulty, moving with difficulty: "Help me..."

Shu Lu was surprised that Qiao Yunxian could see her. He stepped on the air and leapt in front of his eyes. His clothes fluttered and fell in front of Qiao Yunxian's fingertips. He stroked Qiao Yunxian's head like a young animal in the mountains. The wound on Qiao Yunxian's body healed quickly as if going back in time, and it was as good as before: "You can see me, so stay with me."

Qiao Sangsang breathed a sigh of relief, like a frightened rabbit, asked her tremblingly: "You...are you a monster in the mountains..."

"En..." Shu Lu raised his eyebrows and thought for a long time: "I am in charge of all the monsters in this mountain. What do you think I am?"

"Big monster..." Qiao Sangsang dragged her sprained leg and backed away again and again, "Don't eat me... I don't have much meat..."

Shu Lu laughed out loud when he heard it, and almost burst into tears. He recovered and asked her, "Are you delicious?"

Qiao Yunxian immediately said firmly: "I don't like it!"

"That's it, then I won't eat you." Shu Lu said seriously.

"However, if you drink my blood, you can live forever. Do you want to try it?" In a blink of an eye, Shu Lu squatted beside Qiao Yunxian again, stretched out his arm, and pointed to cut open the skin, but was stopped by Qiao Yunxian: " I won't try!"

Shu Lu was stunned. Would anyone refuse such a good offer?Questioned: "Why? Don't people want to live forever?"

"I don't know you before. If I can live forever by your favor, what will I give you back for life?" Qiao Sangsang said plausibly.

"Then you asked me to save you just now, how do you want to repay this life-saving grace?" Shu Lu was puzzled.

Qiao Yunxian said angrily, "I will pay you back this in the future!"

Shu Lu sneered very shamelessly: "Oh, how come?"

Qiao Yunxian said without confidence: "I...I will treat you like a bull or a horse..."

Shu Lu disagreed: "I neither plow nor grind, so what do I need horses and oxen for?"

"Then, then I'll stay with you..." Qiao Yunxian had no other choice.

Shu Lu grinned and approached her: "Aren't you afraid that I'll eat you?"

Qiao Yunxian said timidly, "I'm afraid..."

Shu Lu couldn't help laughing: "You are afraid of me and want to repay your kindness. I have never made things difficult for others, so I won't make it difficult for you to repay your kindness."

Qiao Yunxian watched Shulu disappear in front of his eyes, leaving only the sound of gurgling water in the valley. What is more terrifying than monsters is the fear in people's hearts.

Qiao Yunxian stood up to look for Shu Lu's figure, but slipped by the blood on the stone surface, let out an exclamation, and was lifted up by an external force before her body touched the ground, and Shu Lu's figure appeared in front of her again : "What are you doing, watch the road carefully."

Qiao Yunxian looked shocked, Shu Lu chuckled, let go of his hand and disappeared, before Qiao Yunxian could stand still, he fell to the ground, angrily grabbed a small stone and threw it into the stream, splashing There were layers of ripples: "Just read my jokes."

Qiao Yunxian picked up a branch on the hillside, which happened to be a crutch, and he limped through the forest with it.

Shu Lu let go of the dryad's arm, and followed with satisfaction, feeling that Qiao Yunxian was like a novelty doll that could be used to pass the long night.

Qiao Yunxian got lost in the mountains, as if he had strayed into a maze, and finally collapsed under a jujube tree exhausted.

The next morning, Qiao Yunxian woke up under the tree, covered her body with a lot of hay and leaves, and then sat up, and a lot of fruits fell from the tree.

Qiao Yunxian picked up a few fruits, with dewdrops on them, they looked very delicious, filled his stomach whole, his nose was sore, and he cried while eating: "Do you want to make me fat before eating it?" .”

Then Qiao Yunxian ate the fruit for several days, but felt that it was tasteless: "I really want to eat meat. I won't get fat if I just eat fruit, and it won't taste good."

Waking up the next day, Qiao Yunxian raised his head and waited. A rabbit was thrown from the tree, and he hurriedly took the dress to pick it up. on her skirt.

Qiao Yunxian looked left and right, and finally saw Shulu sitting on the tree trunk with a bamboo basket in the gaps between the leaves, and boldly said, "Can I change the fruit tomorrow."

Shu Lu put the fruit in his hand into his mouth, and said nonchalantly, "This is for me to eat, not for you."

Qiao Yunxian sat under the tree and ate fruit and asked, "Big monster, do you have a name?" Stretching out and retracting his head is also a stab, and it doesn't matter if he can live a day.

Shu Lu hesitated on the tree: "Name?"

Qiao Yunxian looked up at her: "It's what others call you."

Shu Lu threw the fruit core under the tree and lay down on the trunk, feeling very comfortable: "They all call me Goddess, and the God Lord gave me the name Shu Lu, the foot of Lushan Mountain."

Qiao Yunxian was no longer surprised by this meeting, but he still wanted Shu Lu to say it himself: "So you are a god, not a monster?"

Shu Lu lowered his head and asked her, "Is there any difference?"

Qiao Sangsang said as a matter of course: "Of course, monsters cannibalize people, and gods don't eat people."

"I eat people." Shu Lu said nonchalantly.

Qiao Yunxian choked: "You really eat people, aren't you a god?"

Shu Lu stretched his waist: "Lushan eats people, I am the mountain god of Lushan, and I am one with Lushan, regardless of you and me."

"Will Lushan eat people?" Qiao Yunxian looked up at the beautiful scenery of Lushan, and didn't realize it was as scary as she said.

"The monsters in Lushan eat people."

"That's not your fault." Qiao Yunxian retorted subconsciously.

"What's wrong with monsters? They are born to eat meat. In their eyes, humans are nothing more than meat. Monsters eat people, just like you eat fruit. Lushan gave birth to these monsters, which is equivalent to Lushan being They want to eat people." It was this soil and water that gave birth to Shulu, so she would not abandon this land.

Qiao Yunxian actually felt that Shu Lu's words were reasonable, but if it was like what Shu Lu said, in the eyes of the world, are the treacherous, evil, ghosts and ghosts wrong or right?Or good and evil are nothing but nature, follow the crowd to do good, and do evil alone.

"I haven't asked your name yet."

Qiao Yunxian recovered from his contemplation, and looked up at her: "Qiao Yunxian, you can call me Sangsang."

"Sang Sang, which Sang is it?"

Qiao Sangsang uprooted the weeds under the tree, cleaned up a flat piece of dirt, broke off a branch, and called Shu Lu to her side: "Come down, I will teach you how to write."

Qiao Yunxian asked: "Is the foot of Shulu the foot of Lushan, which Shu?"

"The bundle of bondage, written in the words of the gods..." Shu Lu took the branch from her hand, drew a vertical line, and then added a horizontal and vertical fold.

Ordinary people's lifespan is only a few dozen years. For Yu Shulu, it passed in the blink of an eye. Besides, this little thing she raised seems to be very short-lived. May you live forever?"

"Life after life, what will I give you back?" Qiao Yunxian lay in her arms, angry like a hair, still unwilling to accept her favor.I owe you too much, and if I owe you a little more, how can I still be willing to leave.

Shu Lu frowned slightly, revealing a look of pain: "You would rather die than stay with me in this mountain?"

"To you, it's just sooner or later. Your life span is as long as the sky, but even if I live forever, it's only a thousand years, a few short years, or a thousand years. What's the difference?" way.

Shu Lu caressed Qiao Yunxian's dejected eyebrows and eyes: "I'll wait for you, for as long as I want, for your return."

"In the next life, you and I are destined..."

Come from the dust, turn into dust and go.

Dust is ruthless but human beings are affectionate. When a person dies, love remains in the world, and after all, nothing can be taken away.

"Little guy, do you want to eat fruit?" Shu Lu was rarely interested in talking to someone.

"After eating your fruit, do you want to stay with you?" Qibao asked her from a distance.

"No, the person who accompanied me hasn't come back yet. I'm waiting for her."

"Don't you gods know fortune-telling? Why didn't you count yourself?"

Shu Lu lowered his brows and said softly, "Her life is counted, but not my heart."

You say that you have received favors from others, and you have to repay them. I owe you my whole life, and I will repay you for my whole life.

"Let me tell you a story." Qibao took the fruit and sat beside Shulu.

"Okay."

"Xiangshan Daoist has a big disciple who entered the house..."

"Little guy, my blood can not only make people live forever, but it can also gather souls. If he still has blood relatives in this world, even if he is reincarnated as a human, he can find a trace of soul breath from his blood essence. It's a little troublesome, but I think he's not afraid of trouble, and that's my little reward for the storyteller."

"This story was told to me by my husband."

"When will you see him again, tell me the story."

"Okay, it's getting late, I'm going back." Chikusa should be worried.

"Let's go back."

"Even if Sang Sang betrays you, don't guard me anymore." Shu Lu woke up from the dream, opened his eyes, and saw the bright starry sky, as eye-catching as Sang Sang's smile.

"I'm not guarding you, I'm just waiting for you, it doesn't matter if you come or not."

"Shulu, Shulu, come and see, there are a lot of dates here." Lushan walked through the seasons in silence, only Qiao Yunxian was her salvation.

"I will be with you, forever and ever, my eternity, I will spend it with you." Qiao Yunxian always said nice words, but slipped away from her cunningly.

In the drizzle in spring, in the cool wind in summer nights, in the fallen leaves in autumn, and in the white snow in winter, the scenery is obviously the same, but with Qiao Yunxian alone, everything is different.

Even the mountain trails that she walked side by side had her name engraved on them.

"I miss you so much."
