This day should be the Dragon Boat Festival. The sky is gray and it doesn't look cloudy, but there is no blue sky and no sunlight. Suddenly, a golden carp that had been practicing for three thousand years jumped up from the Black Abyss Pond in the northeast and flew to Yunnan.
As long as this golden carp can jump over the Longmen Mountain on the south bank of the Bailong River, it can transform into a dragon and enter the South China Sea. In the clouds and fog, the golden carp gradually transformed into dragon scales, claws, body, and head in the sky...
Before flying over the Longmen Mountain on the south bank of the Bailong River, the golden carp suddenly turned into a soaring dragon. That writhing figure, the shining golden body, and the proud and arrogant dragon momentum were all over the world. Ripples between.
But just when the golden carp was complacent, the sky suddenly became dense with dark clouds, and a black mist barrier burst out from Bali City on the north bank of the Bailong River, blocking the way for the golden carp to ascend, and thunder erupted from the black mist barrier.
The golden carp, which had transformed into the shape of a dragon, was caught off guard and fell on the Pingchuan a few miles away from Bali City. In anger, it transformed into a mound and ran towards the Bailong River with its head held high. Later generations called this hillock Duanlonggang, and the village under it got its name.
"Get up quickly, don't sleep, and lead the dragon soul back to its place..."
Haizi was woken up in a hazy state. He stood up in horror. He opened his eyes wide and saw that the two Taoist priests and heavenly masters had entered the tomb. However, they were still holding Buddha dust in their hands, shaking their spiritual flags, and muttering words in their mouths, showing their profoundness. Measurement.
Haizi knew that he was sleeping deeply and had a dream. It was a dream about the legend of Duanlonggang. The elders often told it. Of course Haizi knew it by heart. But having such a dream here and now, Haizi still felt a little scared. and chagrin.
It was the two long-term workers who came in who woke up Haizi. They told Haizi to go over and take the divine bowl from the hands of the Taoist and Heavenly Master. Inside was the soul of Duan Long who had been summoned back. Haizi needed to go over and introduce the dragon soul into the water tank. among.
The water tank has been placed in the hole Haizi dug, and two buckets of water have been poured into it. Haizi was completely unaware of all this, which shows how deeply Haizi slept at that time.
Haizi was a little confused after being called up, his eyes were dull and sluggish, and even his movements were clumsy and mechanical, giving the impression that his soul had been lost. It seemed that Haizi was indeed frightened.
Haizi may not have fallen asleep, but was frightened and fainted. But it is indeed not easy for a fifteen-year-old boy to stay alone in the tomb for such a long time. If it were anyone else, he would have been paralyzed by fear.
As if he had no apparent consciousness, Haizi was pulled to the Taoist priest's side. He knelt down and took the sacred bowl from the Taoist priest's hand. It was also filled with water, but he could see a fish swimming in the water, which seemed to be A loach.
Haizi didn't care about this. He followed the instructions, walked over and poured the loach into the water tank. Then someone continued to bring in water and pour it into the water tank until the water tank was full.
Haizi had completed his mission and was helped out of the tomb by a long-term worker. At this time, the east of the sky was just getting a little brighter. Haizi didn't know what was going to happen in the tomb next, and of course he wouldn't care anymore.
I just heard that after the Taoist priests and heavenly masters complete the rituals, the tomb will be sealed forever, but it will not just seal the tomb door, but the entire tomb will be filled with soil, so it is for the Yun family to do the work. All the long-term and short-term workers came.
It is said that at dawn, other people from the village will also come, and together they will fill up this tomb that has only existed since I don’t know when, and completely restore Duanlonggang, a geomantic treasure land, so that the people of Duanlonggang can enjoy the beauty of Duanlong for generations to come. Favor.
Haizi, who was scared out of his mind, didn't want to pay attention to this at the moment. He wanted to go back to the Yun Family Courtyard to sleep as soon as possible, and the long-term worker who was supporting Haizi agreed to send Haizi back to the Yun Family Courtyard first.
Everyone was still waiting outside the tomb, whispering about what had happened, and expressing concern and sympathy for Haizi's experience. Haizi looked back at Duanlonggang, which was still lying in the haze, and was still frightened by the tomb with its bloody mouth open.
This end of Longgang is surrounded by flat black land, rich in products, and is a famous Feng Shui treasure land with a radius of dozens of miles. The village is built on the hills to the south of Longshen, and is home to hundreds of households of villagers.
The place Haizi was going to was the Yun family compound at the east end of the village, and the Yun family was also the largest wealthy family in the village. The Yun Family Courtyard is more than 80 feet long from north to south and more than 30 feet wide from east to west. It is the largest and most impressive residential building in this area.
All this shows the wealth and arrogance of the owner, and the owner who dominates this compound is named Yun Fugui, known as Mr. Yun. He is already a northern man in his fifties and approaching sixty.
Mr. Yun, his current wife Yun Erniang, and their seven-year-old daughter occupy the west four rooms of the brick house at the back of the Yun family compound. His first wife He passed away when she was in her forties, and they had two sons and one daughter.
Yun Erye's eldest son Yun Mengze served as an adjutant in Zhang Dashuai's army and studied in Japan in his early years. The second son Yun Mengyu heard that he was studying business in the south. The eldest daughter, Yun Menglu, who is sixteen years old, has already become a beautiful girl and is waiting to be married.
The three brick and tile landlords in the last courtyard are occupied by the old lady, Yun Menglu and Aunt Yun respectively. The fourth room on the east side is the small kitchen and the dining area of the Yun family. In the middle is the place where the Yun family discusses, receives guests and works, and is of course also occupied by Mr. Yun.
The uncle of the Yun family died early, and his eldest son led his wife and children to do business in Harbin. The daughter has already been married, leaving the aunt alone in the Yun family compound to help take care of Mrs. Yun.
There are also five bungalows in the courtyard, where the third youngest of the Yun family lives. Yun Laosan had been ill when he was young. He had tuberculosis. He kept coughing in winter and could not go to the fields to do heavy work.
But this third child has a particularly strong reproductive capacity. She now has five children, two boys and three girls. The eldest daughter and the second daughter are married and now live with their two sons and one daughter. However, the third wife, who is nearly fifty years old, has I am pregnant with a child and will give birth in the fall.
It is said that the Yun family moved here from the Yunnan and Guizhou areas, and it has been eight generations now. Exactly why they came here from all over the world is unknown to outsiders, and the Yun family has never mentioned it.
However, the land here in Duanlonggang is fertile, the water and grass are abundant, and the dark soil oozes oil when you squeeze it. It is very nurturing. As long as you are willing to work, you will have no worries about food and clothing. However, the Yun family's fortune of more than 200 xiangs cannot be earned through hard work alone.
As the saying goes, a horse will not be fat without night grass, and a man will not be rich without external wealth. What kind of foreign wealth did the Yun family get? People don't know, they only know that since the time of Mr. Yun's grandfather, the Yun family has become extremely wealthy and has become a well-known large family.
In addition to leasing outlying land, most of the Yun family's more than 200 acres of land rely on hiring long-term workers for cultivation. It is now the busy season for spring sowing. Before dawn, Mr. Yun dressed up early and called the long-term workers to get up and start work.
When more than thirty long-term workers were still gathering sleepily in the yard, Mr. Yun held a teapot in one hand, took a sip, and made a strong gesture with the other hand to arrange the tea for the long-term workers. manual labor.
"You have to finish working on the remaining plots today. I will personally deliver food to you in the morning. Black Sky will also finish the work later, and we have to finish it. In the past two days, the work of recruiting dragon souls has been delayed. Everyone, please You have to hold on tight!
Brother, take two pairs of rakes and go to the Nanda Pai field to till the millet. The seeds should be denser. This year's grain germination rate is not good. For those of you who start with two, you take two pairs of pear sticks and go to the ground to raise corns with eighteen rings.
Silly Jiuzi, you still lead people to raise dung. Remember to spread evenly, don't get any lumps here or there. Everyone needs to serve snacks and catch up on the progress. The spring planting is waiting for no one. I will ask the kitchen to cook something good for you these days. "
Second Master Yun was sipping tea while arranging the work in an orderly manner, like a general who was sure of victory. However, Second Master Congyun's current family background and the land wealth he owns are also worthy of such momentum.
"Haizi, wake up Si Xizi later and ask him to go and press the roller as fast as they can on the ground. You have to press it twice. You are not in serious condition. Just go to Beizhuan Mountain and press the roller. , also press it twice.”
After a day and night of rest, Haizi's body seemed to have returned to normal, so Master Yun also assigned him a job. However, the work of pressing the roller was relatively easy, and it was considered Master Yun's care for Haizi.
