There is a hint of fish belly white on the horizon, the wind carries a faint fragrance of flowers, and there is a strong smell of earth around you.
Before he opened his eyes, his consciousness enveloped the nearby sky.
The sky has not yet opened, there are only light clouds, waiting for the first ray of sunshine to break through the heavy haze between heaven and earth.
This is a pit that is six feet deep, six feet wide, and one foot long. The soil is still wet because the fog is too thick.
Open your eyes slowly...
"Ah..." Li Xiuyuan screamed, and his immediate reaction was to jump up, but he failed because one of his hands was pressed...
There was an old man lying next to him...
"My... my body!" I moved my limbs and found that it was okay. My body was intact and there were no broken limbs or arms.
Li Xiuyuan sighed. Fortunately, it was not like the last time he came to Xuanwu Continent, where his legs were broken, and he ended up sitting on Tianhuang Mountain for two months...
This time, there was finally no danger. Even though he had seen countless storms, he couldn't help but be excited.
Taking a deep breath, he turned around and saw an old man lying next to him, still holding one of his hands.
He was so frightened that he reached out to touch the old man's breath. Fortunately, the old man was not dead.
So he took his hands out from under the old man and sat slowly in the pit.
He looked at the old man next to him and said, "My husband, if you don't sleep at home, why did you come to this mountainous place? And dug a hole?"
"I asked, which family do you belong to? Why haven't I seen you?"
The old man opened his eyes. With his yellow teeth exposed, he looked at Li Xiuyuan with a hateful and hateful look, and cursed angrily: "Son, you've ruined my big business!"
"What's the matter?
This panic? Li Xiuyuan, who gradually came to his senses, took out the kettle and drank half of it.
He stretched out his sleeves and wiped the corners of his mouth. With a flash of white light in the sky, I could clearly see the old man's dress.
I saw that the old man was wearing a Taoist robe. He was obviously a Taoist priest, and his clothes were bright and beautiful. This was a new set of clothes he had just put on.
Looking at the pieces of yellow paper in the pit, Li Xiuyuan's hair suddenly stood up...
He opened his mouth and asked, "This is the hole you dug. Is it possible that you want to bury yourself alive?" Li Xiuyuan was frightened by the old man's actions.
He has traveled to many places in the heavens, but this is the first time he saw someone trying to bury himself alive...
This is so weird and terrifying.
The old man shook his head and sighed: "Son, you ruined my good deeds..."
"Old man Zhang, you are not moral. You will be punished by God for doing this!"
Before the old man could finish his words, dozens of heads suddenly appeared on the newly dug grave. A trembling old man pointed at the old man in the pit and cursed.
The old man in the pit shook his head, sat up on the ground, stretched out his hand and said: "Old man Wang, what are you talking about? Pull me up first!"
Looking at the dozens of people who suddenly appeared, Li Xiuyuan was so frightened that he screamed: "Why is this?"
A group of people hurriedly pulled the old man and Li Xiuyuan up.
Immediately, Li Xiuyuan saw a coffin and a funeral procession not far away. Men and women were mourning not far away...
Look more carefully. There is a large lake not far in front of here, and behind it is a mountain peak that is not too high. It is surrounded by peach blossoms... No wonder the wind is full of light.
Floral.
"Old man, you are a Taoist priest, why are you lying here?" Li Xiuyuan patted the soil on his body and asked.
Another old man named Wang who was quarreling with the old man looked at Li Xiuyuan and screamed: "Young man, whose child are you? How come you are with this Taoist priest?"
Li Xiuyuan shook his head, pointed to the coffin not far away and said, "Let's talk about this old Taoist priest first."
After everyone talked and quarreled, Li Xiuyuan finally understood the whole story.
The old man's surname is Zhang, a Taoist priest who specializes in doing feng shui for people and doing simple things.
The Wang family lost their son and asked an old Taoist priest to choose a geomantic treasure place for them... Who knew that the first seven days had passed and today was the time to bury him.
When everyone went out for the funeral at Mao Shi, the old Taoist priest was nowhere to be seen...
But what the old Taoist priest meant was that this cemetery was the best dragon vein place he had ever seen. As long as he was buried here, it would make future generations prosperous...
So he would risk his life and lay down first... When the time came, he would take poison and commit suicide, and he would also fight for a descendant of Dragon Vein Fuyin.
Unexpectedly, before the time came, Li Xiuyuan fell from the sky and almost crushed him to death in this pit.
It was only then that Li Xiuyuan looked at Taoist Zhang and sighed.
He said quietly: "I have seen countless strange things, but this is the first time I have seen someone who risked his life and robbed someone of a cemetery. You are really good at it."
As for Old Man Wang and Taoist Zhang, they were all stunned when they looked at the thirteen-year-old Li Xiuyuan.
He shouted: "Who are you? Why are you here?"
Li Xiuyuan took a deep breath and looked at the two old men. After a long time, he replied: "You two, where are you?"
? tell me the story. "
"This is the Peach Blossom Land, an unknown place outside the world." Old Man Zhang smiled and sighed, looked at Li Xiuyuan and shouted: "Whose child are you from? Why haven't I seen you?"
"Unknown land? Peach Blossom Spring..."
Li Xiuyuan couldn't help but murmured. For a moment, it evoked his dusty memory. In the Taoyuan of Shura Heaven, Nangong Ruyu and Dongfang Yu'er...
Now, I should call my old friend Dongfang Ruyu.
"Is this the Shura Heaven Realm?" Li Xiuyuan came back to his senses and looked at the two people in front of him and asked.
"Don't know? Our place is a hundred miles away, and no one has ever left." Taoist Zhang sighed and said quietly.
Old Man Wang quit, turned and looked at a group of villagers and shouted: "You said, there are two people lying in this pit, can they be buried in it again?"
According to the custom of Peach Blossom Spring, if the pit dug in the selected cemetery is taken advantage of by others, no more people can be buried.
Because this feng shui has been destroyed.
Old man Zhang looked at the sun that was about to leap into the sky, counted with his fingers, and watched Li Xiuyuan's face become more and more solemn...
Finally, he sighed leisurely and smiled lightly.
"Originally, no more people can be buried in this pit, but because this kid is not from our Peach Blossom Spring... he is considered a descendant of heaven, so this cave is still a dragon's cave..."
When Old Man Wang heard this, he took Li Xiuyuan's hand and looked at it again and again, then nodded.
Then he shouted to the back: "What are you still doing? The auspicious time has come, work quickly, don't miss the time!"
"Brothers, let's do it together..."
"The village chief and Taoist Zhang said that they could continue the burial, so everyone hurried to help.
handle……"
"Let's get going, brother, it's a good trip!"
"Brother, keep going all the way, don't look back on the road to hell..."
Just when Li Xiuyuan was stunned, a group of men had already hung the coffin with white silk and lowered it into the pit.
Old man Zhang muttered something, scattered the lost sand, killed the rooster, burned the yellow paper, and directed everyone to dump the earth, while he stood aside and read the scriptures.
After everyone built the new tomb, the rising sun had just climbed halfway up the mountain, and the world returned to a clear and bright atmosphere.
Everything woke up instantly.
Li Xiuyuan looked at the scene in front of him and couldn't help but murmur to himself: "Under the Forgotten River, under the Mulberry Village; half is light, half is shadow... Have a good journey."
I sighed silently in my heart, thinking that it seemed like I had to find a time when no one was around to do this, and ask Master where he was this time.
Judging from the popular clothes and tone, this is really an unknown place.
It seems that neither the old people nor the young and strong men have ever left the Peach Blossom Spring. This is a more mysterious place than the Peach Blossom Spring in the Shura Heaven.
He stood quietly in the mountain for half an hour, watching everyone complete the burial ceremony and go down the mountain one after another.
Old man Zhang took Li Xiuyuan's hand and walked down the mountain, while saying: "No matter who you are, come back to the village with us first, have a glass of wine and chat slowly."
"Thank you so much." Li Xiuyuan thought to himself that he might have to stay here for a while.
"Boy, do you know that I have been waiting for this day all my life?" Old man Zhang, who was wearing a Taoist robe, shook his head, smiled bitterly, and complained at the same time.
Hearing such words, Li Xiuyuan couldn't help but change his face slightly, thinking that this matter
Can't you control it yourself?
One moment he was waving goodbye to Princess Yuzhen in Penglai of the Tang Dynasty, and the next moment he was here. He didn't even know how long he had been in his black hole.
If he had not returned to the Shura Heaven, how would he have gone to the wild world?
Where to find the way to heaven? At least he has to go back to Ding'an City to see his eldest sister Li Qiushui and others?
I followed a group of villagers down the mountain in a daze, bypassing the big lake in front of me, walking all the way forward, stepping on the peach blossoms on the ground, and entered the village where everyone lived.
Along the way, he rarely saw pear blossoms and apricot blossoms. Peach blossoms were planted on both sides of the road. No wonder this place was called Peach Blossom Land.
Everyone came to the village chief's house to continue drinking. After leaving, it was the villagers' turn to drink and chat.
"We've been living here for thousands of years."
Old man Zhang, who was wearing Taoist robes, looked at Li Xiuyuan and said, "We also want to see the outside world, but we can't find a way out."
"Taoist Zhang, you are so shameless!" The women in the village knew that the old man was competing for feng shui with living people, so they came over to lecture him one after another.
"What nonsense are you talking about? I'm back, aren't I?" Old Man Zhang replied unwillingly.
"The village chief has already said it. Who dares to ask you to do something for nothing in the future?" The women in the village are usually bored, and they finally found an excuse. I'm afraid they will scold them for several years.
"It's okay if you don't invite me. I'll be happy and free." Taoist Zhang waved his hand and scolded everyone.
Li Xiuyuan shook his head and sighed: "Unexpectedly, I came to an unknown place."
However, before the village chief could bring Li Xiuyuan into the house to talk, Old Man Zhang's face darkened and he sighed.
pull
Li Xiuyuan's hand said: "Let's go...Old man Wang, come to the Taoist temple to drink with me later..."
Old man Zhang's face darkened, and he pulled Li Xiuyuan away, regardless of whether the village chief would follow him. He seemed to have remembered something terrible.
This is the only village in Peach Blossom Spring, and there are very few intrusions by outsiders.
Today was a day at the village chief's house, but suddenly an outsider came. Old man Zhang didn't even know how to explain it to the women in the village.
The only way is to take Li Xiuyuan away from the village chief's house before everyone discovers him.
The two of them walked quickly and finally arrived at a small Taoist temple where Old Man Zhang was.
After entering the main hall, Old Man Zhang burned three sticks of incense at the Patriarch's Gate and muttered silently in his heart for a long time.
Then he turned around, pointed to the table next to him and said, "Sit down, kid. Let's talk about your affairs and some past events in Peach Blossom Land."
Li Xiuyuan sighed and said seriously: "I am not from your village. You don't know where I come from, and I don't know how I got here."
He reached out and pointed to the top of his head, and said with a wry smile: "If you don't understand something, you can only ask him."
Old man Zhang was stunned when he heard this. He stretched out his hand and pinched Li Xiuyuan's wrist. He searched for it quietly for a while, then sighed leisurely.
He frowned and said, "How can you, a mere mortal, cross the limits of heaven and earth and come here?"
Li Xiuyuan smiled faintly: "Senior, with all his cultivation, is he trapped here?"
