Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Chapter 11219

Yang Ruoqing and Sun and her friends walked together to the small bridge over the river dam. There was an intersection there, and Sun and her friends had to go downhill to the right towards Changping Village.

Yang Ruoqing was going to walk along the river dam towards Zhengjia Village. In fact, she was not going to Zhengjia Village, but to a Taoist temple.

Regarding building a small stone house for the black snake, she found a few craftsmen and asked them to go with Taoist Yuan to the mountains to select a site for construction.

Several days had passed, and Yang Ruoqing had been busy looking for Huansheng's father, and had not asked about this matter, so today when she had some free time, Yang Ruoqing decided to go to the Taoist temple.

In the Taoist temple, Yang Ruoqing met Taoist Master Yuan.

"It has been built. It is built at the intersection where the road enters the mountain from Niu Youtui Peak."

The names such as Niu Youtui Peak, Niu Neck Peak and Niutou Peak were all given by the villagers in this area based on their observations of the geographical appearance of Mianniu Mountain. The purpose is to make it easier for everyone to identify and remember.

The name Mianniu Mountain came from the terrain of the mountain. From a distance, it looks like a cow lying on the ground.

Some older people even said that this cow was no ordinary cow, but the mount of a monk in ancient times.

The old Taoist priest with the Ox-nosed Bear rode his cow around the world, experiencing all kinds of human life. When he arrived in this area, he suddenly had an epiphany, attained the Great Dao, and ascended to heaven in broad daylight.

His cow stayed in the human world. The old cow looked up at the sky every day, hoping that its owner would appear.

Year after year, many years passed, and the old cow was too old to stand and was so weak that it could only lie down.

Even at the last moment of its life, it still kept its head raised high and looked at the sky, hoping that its owner would come back and take it away.

Others say that the old cow did not die, but was also practicing Taoism here, and finally abandoned its body, and its soul left and went to the Ninth Heaven to continue the master-servant relationship with its master...

There are many versions of the story, all passed down from generation to generation by the older generation.

And when everyone tells this story to his or her descendants, they will more or less add some of their own guesses.

Therefore, just listen to it as a myth without delving into it too deeply.

However, the unique mountains and rivers in Mianniu Mountain gave birth to some rare and bizarre birds and animals, exotic flowers and plants, and various mysterious places that are beyond the cognition of the villagers and the world...all of which cannot be compared with the outside world.

Pulling away, get back to business.

"Where is Niu Youtui Peak? I've been to that place. It's the most popular place in our mountain, but it's also the most dangerous place." Yang Ruoqing said.

The reason why it is so popular is that the mountain dwellers who go in and out of the mountains or to the outside town for market or other purposes basically have to pass through that intersection.

The road condition over there is relatively flat, which is suitable for mountain people to travel. In addition, the forest there is also lush. Villagers outside the mountain usually go into the mountain to hunt, collect firewood, etc., and they all like to go to Wangniutui Peak.

Because of its popularity, it is also the most dangerous place.

This kind of danger comes not only from ambushes and robberies by bandits, robbers, or some evil-minded people in and outside the mountains, but also from wild beasts and ferocious birds in the mountains.

Outside the mountains, wild beasts and ferocious birds dare not easily set foot in, but once they are deep in the mountains, that is their territory and they can do whatever they want. Moreover, the deeper you go into the mountains, the more unknown dangers there are, and the weaker the power of humans will become.

"I hope the black snake can accumulate merits there," Yang Ruoqing said. Only by accumulating merits can its sins be eliminated.

If it accumulates merits by doing good deeds over the years and offsets its faults, and at the same time wins the respect of the nearby villagers and mountain people, and even brings incense to worship it, then the black snake will be able to receive the incense.

  For those spiritual creatures in the world, being able to receive incense is a blessing that they cannot ask for!

The incense is abundant. Not to mention turning into a dragon and diving into the sea, if you continue to practice, it is possible that you can ascend to heaven in broad daylight and become an immortal on the spot.

But, that will take a very, very long time...

It can’t be described in one or two years, five or ten years. It will take countless springs, summers, autumns and winters, and the villagers on this piece of land may have to be replaced several times...

Anyway, Yang Ruoqing definitely can’t see it.

However, even if she couldn't see it, she was willing to do this for the peace of the people here and for the green snake's entrustment, to help the black snake and benefit the people at the same time.

If done well, it would be a win-win situation. Even though Yang Ruoqing herself could not gain any benefit from it, she was still willing to do it.

Because some of her descendants, children and grandchildren will definitely continue to live and reproduce near Mianniu Mountain.

"Master Yuan, thank you for your hard work! I always have to disturb your meditation with these mundane matters."

Yang Ruoqing bowed and sincerely thanked Master Yuan.

Taoist Priest Yuan was sitting cross-legged on a cushion, wearing a yellow Taoist robe with a black Bagua pattern embroidered on the chest. The cuffs of the robe were very wide, which made Yang Ruoqing think of the world in the sleeves in Journey to the West every time she saw the cuffs of Taoist Priest Yuan's robe...

Of course, that is a myth. Although there are some strange things in the real world, they are not as shattering as those in myth.

"By the way, Taoist Yuan, there is something I didn't want to trouble you with, but since I'm here now, I still want you to help take a look."

"What is it? But it doesn't matter."

"It's like this. There's a man named Huansheng in our village. His old man has been bedridden for almost a year..."

Yang Ruoqing told Taoist Yuan everything about how Huansheng's father had suddenly disappeared a few days ago, and about the dummy they saw thrown in the pit during their subsequent search.

"A few days ago, everyone in our village dropped their work and went to help Huansheng's family look for the old man, but in the end they came back empty-handed."

"Some elders in the village asked Huansheng to go to Lijia Village to ask Li Banxian, but there was no response."

"Master Yuan, how about you help take a look? At least, you should find the person alive or dead. If he disappears so suddenly without any result, it is inevitable that people will be panicked and cause unnecessary panic."

Similar mysterious things happened in the village a few years ago, but Yang Ruoqing could no longer remember what the incident was.

But she remembered that after that mysterious incident, a group of villagers with evil intentions came out at night to steal under the guise of a mysterious incident.

Seeing that the villagers were timid and fearful and dared not speak out, the gang of thieves succeeded in getting away with a lot of money, food and supplies during that time.

  Fortunately, he was caught later and brought to justice, otherwise who knows what kind of terrible thing the incident would have turned into!

Therefore, Yang Ruoqing vowed to find out the truth about Huansheng's father's mysterious disappearance.
