Lost Narrative Poetry

After some conversation, everyone learned that the scholar in front of them was named Xia Yuanchen, and he was also a local living in Jimo.

As for the excitement in Jimo today, the lanterns and festoons are held because of the Fox Fairy’s birthday. There is a legend about a Fox Fairy named Mr. Hu San. It is said that the Fox Fairy was born decades ago. Came to Jimo.

After appearing several times, the locals knew about the existence of such a fox spirit. Because he protected Jimo, the weather was smooth and the locals lived and worked in peace and contentment more than 20 years ago. Therefore, the people of Jimo built it for him more than 20 years ago. He built a fox fairy temple in the center of the village.

Even now that the village has become a small town, this has not changed. The expansion is still centered on the Fox Fairy Temple. The Fox Fairy Temple itself has also expanded in size. After several repairs, the incense has become more prosperous.

Congratulations to the Fox Fairy on their birthdays only became popular a few years ago, but after doing this once, if you don’t continue to do it the next year, you always feel bad, and subconsciously worry that the Fox Fairy will blame... Obviously You've been rushing to congratulate others on their birthdays all year, but this year you're pretending not to know?

So even if it’s just for peace of mind, you have to keep doing it. Moreover, it is not just peace of mind, because Mr. Hu San is relatively vain. Although the arrival of a certain person has changed his original behavior and behavior, his character of wanting to be noticed by others has not changed.

Therefore, the local people in Jimo found that even before celebrating the Fox Fairy's birthday, the local area had always had good weather year after year. But after celebrating the Fox Fairy's birthday, the town's development was obviously better.

It feels like the previous leaders only did their duty and did their share of the responsibilities, but the current leaders are doing their best, even on matters that are not within their responsibilities, they will work hard to help the people in their jurisdiction...

——The difference is very big.

Therefore, this program to celebrate the birthday of the Fox Fairy has been retained. In recent years, it has developed into a local celebration temple fair. The locals are also very interested in this, and there is also the concept of competing for the first prize. They all feel that on this day, the first A person who burns incense will definitely be favored by the fox fairy and can realize his wish.

Everyone thinks so, and since there is only one stick of incense, everyone is scrambling for it, scrambling for time, lest they fall behind others. Even if it's no good, if you can't grab the incense stick, you can still grab a front row seat. Maybe the old fox fairy will also fulfill his wish when he is happy?

Get a wife and have children.

Gold list title.

Get promoted and make a fortune.

Everyone's wishes are very simple. Although they all know that this requires their own efforts to complete the accumulation, but if they can get the help of ghosts and gods and skip the difficult accumulation process, why not do it?

It is precisely because of this that the locals are so anxious today and ignore the Qionghua faction. How can they have this time!

"Is this actually the case?" After listening to Xia Shusheng's explanation, Han Lingsha covered her mouth in surprise, "So, the fox fairy really exists? Can it really be so effective? The local people's request May all your wishes come true?"

"The fox fairy naturally exists. Many local people have seen it and know that the fox fairy lives deep in the Hidden Fragrance Mountain. In the past, many people would go to the mountain to seek immortality. If they were able to come out safely, they all said that they were lucky enough to get the fox. Thanks to the blessing of the immortal, I was not snatched away by the big insects and beasts in the mountains..."

Xia Yuanchen shook his head.

"It's just that the fox fairy won't say that everything is granted and all wishes come true. If it is a woman at home who is about to give birth and she wishes for the safety of mother and child, that is fine, and her wish will usually come true. But if she wishes to be promoted and make a fortune, Those who wish to bless their children to be top picks in high school will definitely not say that they will get what they wish for..."

"Ha, this is also the case. The imperial examination is held every three years. There is only one champion, but there must be more than one person who makes a wish. Even if Fox Fairy can really help, who should he help?" Han Lingsha couldn't bear it either. He laughed out loud, "There is also promotion and wealth. How could such a thing happen for no reason?"

"What the girl said is true..." Scholar Xia sighed, looking at the crowd of people not far away with some melancholy, "The local people are indeed a little impetuous, and there are some signs of greed, delusion and anger, which may not be a good thing... …”

He should have persuaded Fox San to stop him at first, but there was nothing he could do about it. It was the first time that so many people helped him celebrate his birthday. The fox was surprised and happy. He was so happy that he couldn't calm down at all, so his mind became hot. , and also happily went to help the locals do a few good things.

It just so happened that they all showed up to rescue them, with the intention of showing off. Maybe Mr. Hu didn’t think so much at the time, but simply felt that he had to respond. After all, so many people congratulated him on his birthday, so what did he do? It seems unreasonable not to do anything.

But in doing so, it was equivalent to creating a wave of advertising for himself, and the result became what it is now.

Many people have become utilitarian in their mentality. In previous temple fairs, they only offered sacrifices to the Fox Fairy, praying that the Fox Fairy would continue to bless the Jimo people in the coming year and pray for a good harvest in the coming year. But now they are all scrambling to grab the incense stick and other false claims, thinking that this way the old fox fairy can realize his wish.

People who have not read much hope to be promoted and make a fortune;

Obviously his son is just an honest fisherman, but he begs for a good father who hopes that his son will be the top scorer in high school;

There are also elderly people who say they want to live a long life, and even old people have ambitions for thousands of miles, hoping to borrow another five hundred years from heaven...

——These are naturally delusions of greed, delusion, and anger, but they have a feeling that affects all Jimo people. If things go on like this, it will not be a good thing, so Xia Yuanchen feels a little worried.

He and Mr. Hu San were also friends, and they had gotten along fairly well over the past few decades, so they were a little hesitant about this matter and could not directly point out what Hu San had done wrong.

However, the group of people in front of me seemed to be Taoist cultivators from the Kunlun Mountains in the northwest, and their cultivation levels were not bad. Xia Yuanchen is not said to be proficient in the art of fortune-telling, but after living for thousands of years, he still has some discernment.

Among this group of people, the two young men were either upright and awe-inspiring, or their breath was as fresh as the mountains and forests, while the two girls were soft and charming with a hint of heroism, and neither of them were treacherous or evil people in terms of temperament. .

So when Xia Yuanchen saw that this group of people were actually very interested in the local Fox Fairy under the guise of asking about Jimo, he simply followed the flow and told the clues about Master Hu, and during the conversation It explains in detail the reasons for today's celebration and festival, and how it developed to this point.

At the same time, he also implicitly expressed his concerns about the utilitarian mentality of Jimo people, and also expressed part of the responsibility of Mr. Hu San in this matter... In this way, when this group of people really found Hu San, No matter what they were visiting, they would probably mention it eventually.

In this case, there is no need for Xia Yuanchen to express his opinions on that naughty kid Hu San. It will easily stimulate the latter's vanity and self-esteem, causing him to get into trouble, but it should also be able to solve the problem.

"Thank you sir for clarifying my doubts. Sorry for bothering you..."

At this time, Murong Ziying really felt that she and others had obtained enough clues and were ready to enter Hidden Fragrance Mountain directly. She saluted Scholar Xia again and expressed her farewell.

Xia Shusheng smiled and cupped his hands, then looked at Liu Mengli with some doubts, and found that this beautiful girl had been staring thoughtfully at the timid daughter beside him from just now until now.

"This is my daughter, Lian Bao..." he introduced her.

"Sir, don't be offended. I just think... your daughter seems a bit... a bit..." Liu Mengli reacted and waved her hands repeatedly, but when she explained her behavior, she was rarely embarrassed. She didn't know why. Go on.

I feel like I can't find an adjective. No matter how I say it in front of my father, it seems a little inappropriate.

"I know this, but Lian Bao was born with dementia, and she is actually not very good at talking yet..."

Scholar Xia sighed and touched the little girl's head with pity.

"Ah! Is that so? I thought...I'm sorry, it seems that life here is not easy for you and your daughter." The girl in red covered her mouth in surprise. She had actually noticed the little girl's face before. Some abnormalities just didn't show up.

"It's not hard at all. Everyone is actually very helpful..." Scholar Xia smiled and said, "And I have a friend who already knows about Lian Bao and promised me to help with the treatment..."

In this matter, it seemed that because he was very happy, Scholar Xia couldn't help but reveal some secrets.

"Can this kind of situation be cured?" Han Lingsha's eyes widened. She didn't mean to be sarcastic, but simply thought it was quite incredible. "Is there any miracle doctor here in Jimo?"

Judging from Shusheng Xia's look, he seems to be convinced that being born with dementia is nothing. As long as his friend is willing to take action, it can be easily solved?

"Ahem, I'm just a friend who is good at medicine..." Shusheng Xia restrained his expression and realized that he had made some mistakes. He quickly responded vaguely, "Okay, I still have some things to do, please do it yourself..."

Looking at the back of the scholar leading the little girl away quickly, Yun Tianhe reached out and touched his head: "Strange, why does this person want to leave so soon?"

"It seems like he is hiding something..." Han Lingsha was also a little strange. She was keenly aware of this, and at the same time she reacted with hindsight, "It's really strange to say that he didn't join in the fun like those people. But he knows so much about the Fox Fairy that he can answer whatever we ask..."

"Perhaps, but this gentleman is not a bad person and has no evil aura about him." Murong Ziying nodded and turned to look at a mist-shrouded mountain outside the town. "Without further ado, let's go up the mountain now. Go and have a look, Guangji Hantu only appeared once in Jimo hundreds of years ago, and if anyone knows its clues, it’s probably the fox fairy."

According to the two elders, there are very few cold spiritual objects in the world, and there are only three or five traces of them that can be found. Therefore, it is really difficult for them to find three at once. They can only see Is God willing to fulfill it?

The two elders also only knew the clues of three cold weapons just now, but they were all very vague clues. For example, the Guangji Han Picture appeared in Jimo, East China Sea hundreds of years ago, and there was also a cold weapon hidden in the Shennong Cave of Emperor Yan. It is a spiritual creature, but no one knows what it is because there is only one legend.

These clues are extremely blurred. Over the hundreds of years, the world has changed, and no one knows what the situation was like back then, how the things in the past have changed, and where they have ended up.

But the last cold weapon, Kun Scale, has the latest and clearest clue. It is said that those are the scales of a big fish in the north, and that ancient giant swam near Chao Lake a few years ago. If any of the scales fall off, it will inevitably become a cold spiritual object...

…

"When using Soul Resurrection Immortal Dream, one thing to note is that it also needs to be combined with various illusion annihilation spells, so that the old friends in the past cannot remember anything, so as not to cause catastrophe... However, the spell may not be suitable for people with advanced cultivation levels. Too useful."

In the deep mountains shrouded in clouds and mist, Zixuan was explaining to the people behind her while raising her hands lightly and constantly spreading some powder to disperse the surrounding miasma and poisonous snakes, insects and ants.

"So the best way is not to meet old friends when you go back in time and avoid people we are familiar with, so as to ensure that history will not change too much... So you Brother Xu has no way to go back to the Shushan Sect at this time to ask for help. .”

"Regardless of whether the Shushan sect members at this time believe it or not, they are all elders of your brother Xu's sect. The more people know about it, the more likely it is to cause a catastrophe... and I have no way to find him at this time. My mother is like this."

"That's it..." Tang Xuejian followed the team, kicked the pebbles on the road, nodded in understanding, and looked around again, "But why do we come to Hidden Fragrance Mountain?"

"This is because at this time, our Shushan sect had a senior who lived in seclusion here..." Xu Changqing explained, "That senior got married to a flower demon, but unexpectedly gave birth to a child who was born poisonous. Only I The sect’s most precious treasure, the Red Snow Flowing Pearl Pill, can be solved, but our sect’s views on monsters are quite radical at this time, so naturally it is impossible to give such a treasure.”

"That senior failed to steal the elixir, and later escaped from the sect with his wife and children and became an abandoned disciple. Then his brother and his master took desperate risks for him, took the opportunity to steal the elixir, and went down the mountain to capture the elixir. The medicine is delivered here, and then you return to the door to receive the punishment..."

"But the senior is ignorant of this and has no face to return to the sect for the rest of his life, so we can start here and ask him about the whereabouts of other spirit beads without worrying about our identity being exposed."
