Chapter 122 120 II: Story (thanks to sen_tiger lord)

Xiao Lingsu secretly scolded Li Chan for his appetite, but the two sparrow masters obviously didn't know that people's hearts were sinister, so they grabbed the gourd and flew away from Zhongyu Cliff, as if they were afraid that Li Chan would die of thirst.

There are twelve famous springs on Fuyu Mountain. It is said that drinking the spring water from this fairy mountain can improve hearing and eyesight and prolong life.The homes of high-ranking officials and nobles occasionally get spring water from the mountains, which are often stored in glass bottles, and they are only willing to take it out to make tea when entertaining guests.But to the people on Fuyu Mountain, these famous springs are just slightly sweeter water.

Shuyuquan is the most famous among the twelve springs. In the stele pavilion beside the spring, there is a sentence written by Liu Shandao, the governor of Lizhou in the previous dynasty, "the spring hits Shuyu, the cloud drips and looks at the hanging pearl".Gou Ming and Yin Xing flew over this famous spring, but they didn't stop, they went straight into the towering forest in the shade of the mountain.

The two sparrows knew every plant and tree on Fuyu Mountain like the back of their hands, and after a while, they flew into a deep valley several miles away.

Hidden by branches and leaves in the valley, there is only a thousand-year-old oak tree growing, and there is a tree hole like a small pond at the waist of the tree, which is guarded by a green-faced mandrill.

What is stored in this tree hole is the mince that the mandrills have collected since last autumn.Seeing the unexpected visitor, the mandrill bared its teeth and showed a fierce look.But before the mandrill could growl, it was pecked on the forehead.

The mandrill was furious and waved away the two sparrows, only to eat a few more pecks.The roar stopped abruptly, and the mandrill shrank its neck, clasped its hands together, and begged for mercy.

The two sparrows landed on a branch, and the two gourds were thrown to the mandrill's feet.

The mandrill was taken aback for a moment, not knowing what it meant.Erqing spread his wings and wanted to fly, but the mandrill shrank into a ball in fright, and quickly picked up the gourd and entered the tree hole.The juice from the mince that has been fermented over the winter accumulates at the bottom of the cave, which is light amber in color.The mandrill filled two gourds with mixed fruit and gave them to Erque.

When the two sparrows grabbed the gourd and flew away, the ferocious green-faced mandrill squatted on the branch, hunched its neck, and sighed in distress.

……

In Zhongyuya's cave, Li Chan took the gourd from Qingque and weighed it, it was full.The surface of the gourd was sticky to the touch, and when I took it to the nose and smelled it, the fruity fragrance was rich and the alcohol smell was faint.He unplugged the plug, saw the amber pulp, and said cheerfully, "Which company did you steal the mincemeat from?"

Yin Xing raised his head and chirped a few times triumphantly.

"Oh, the mandrill in Shanyin." Li Chan uncorked the gourd and raised her head to drink. This time, she drank more sparingly, put down the gourd after only a few sips, and sighed contentedly.

Most people in Qingque Palace have heard of Baiguo Niang in the mountains, but few people have found it.Xiao Lingsu originally thought that it would be a blessing to be able to fill a pot of spring water, but at this moment, holding a gourd of Baiguo Niang, he suddenly felt that life on this wall was not too difficult.He took a sip of sweet and sour fruit syrup and asked, "What about the charcoal seller?"

Li Chan sat on the edge of the cave, cleared his throat, and looked at the sky, "It was very cold at that time, many people froze to death, and the whole Longwu Pass was alarmed. A passing Taoist found out the reason and found the snow doll. "

According to the storytelling routine in the winery and tea shop, the next step is to talk about the plot of slaying demons and demons.Xiao Lingsu subconsciously did not want to hear such a result.Although Dongsheng harmed people, he had no intention of doing so. If it died, what would happen to the charcoal seller?But thinking about it again, if Dongsheng didn't die, would the people who froze to death in Guanzhong die in vain?

But I heard Li Chan say: "After the Taoist found Xuewa, he originally wanted to kill it and give an explanation to those who died in vain. But he also thought that the charcoal seller and Xuewa were dependent on each other, and when they had feelings, the Taoist used supernatural powers. Let this snow doll be reincarnated as a fetus, and it is still called Dongsheng. After that, the charcoal seller and Dongsheng left Longwuguan, went to live in seclusion in the mountains, and lived a happy life."

Li Chan stopped here, and the other Er Que was still waiting quietly. Li Chan said: "This story is over here."

Yin Xing groaned and applauded, while Gou Ming tilted his head and yelled twice in doubt.

Li Chan said: "Later? What happened later is another story."

Li Chan didn't talk anymore, and the two sparrows didn't bother, they chattered again, talking about something with Li Chan.Xiao Lingsu was listening on the sidelines, and from Li Chan's response, he probably talked about the fact that in the past half a year, Erque bullied a snake bird in a certain forest in Fuyu Mountain, and played tricks on tigers and leopards in a certain stream.

After talking for a long time, Erque left Zhongyuya.

Xiao Lingsu tasted the Baiguo brew in the gourd with great cherishment, and then asked: "The thing about the charcoal seller is not true, is it?"

Li Chan asked, "What?"

Xiao Lingsu said: "Even the orthodoxy of Qingque Palace has to be cultivated to enter the country to be reincarnated. If the Taoist priest's supernatural powers can easily enlighten monsters and reincarnate into adults, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a contribution to good fortune."

"It's a story, just listen to it. In fact, the story is half-truth and half-false. It's made up better. It's for the two sparrows. The original situation is much more miserable."

"What is the real thing?"

"Then Dongsheng felt that as long as the snow never melts, the charcoal business will be better and better, and he and the charcoal seller will be able to stay together forever. The result not only missed the farmers' spring plowing, but also harmed the poor. The charcoal seller also fell ill with cold. The charcoal seller was old, and he closed his eyes within three days of being ill."

"What about Dongsheng?"

"That Dongsheng knew that he had done something wrong, so he accepted the demon method. When the sun shines and the snow melts, it also melts."

Xiao Lingsu took a sip of the marinated stuffed fruit, wanting to say nothing, finally only sighed.

……

Xiao Lingsu originally thought that a gourd and stuffed with a hundred fruits is a rare delicacy that can't be found on the jade cliff, but he didn't expect that after three days, Que Jun came several times, not only accompanied by him to relieve the suffocation in this square inch , also caught a fat hare, a grouse, and even a piece of dead tree at the invitation of Li Chan.

Li Chan peeled and removed the internal organs with the Xuanxin sword, washed them briefly with the saved drinking water, and roasted two wild animals with Xiao Lingsu's fire technique.Wild animals are not as delicious as domestic animals, and a chicken and a rabbit are not enough to feed their hunger, but after eating, they lie down in the cave, the mountain breeze around them is cool, the sky is clear in their eyes, and there is nothing in their hearts. It's a fairy day.

Early in the morning, Wang Chaozong, who was carrying two gourds of water, came to the bottom of Zhongyu Cliff, his eyes fell on the broken bones at the bottom of the cliff, and he couldn't help being very puzzled.Until I climbed Jade Cliff and came outside the cave, I didn't realize what kind of beast could eat the bones so clean that there was no meat left.

When he opened the door, he saw the traces of fire in the cave, and Li Chan and Xiao Lingsu, who had not washed for three days, had oily hands and faces, Wang Chaozong's doubts turned into astonishment.

A wave of anger welled up in Wang Chaozong's chest, but he endured it, did not explode, but said coldly to Li Chan: "Come out!"

Xiao Lingsu hurriedly stepped forward to take the gourd, "Lingdezi, the trace in this hole is me..."

"Lingsu misunderstood." Wang Chaozong spoke to Xiao Lingsu, and his attitude eased a lot.

He turned to Li Chan again, his face dropped: "Someone wants to see you, come with me."
