Chapter 40 Dragon Son Ancestral Hall 3
"Zhuangzi."
In "Xiaoyaoyou", there is a story about Emperor Yao coming to Gushe Mountain and meeting four gods.
Chuxiu said: "I only heard about Taotang Jincheng in my dream, but not Pingyang. The boy saw that the people who built the city were miserable, so he insisted on going to help build the Jincheng. I stopped him and refused to let him go. He was disobedient.
He sneaked away to apply for the recruitment. Who would have known that overnight, he would build a majestic and Cui Tao Tang Golden City!"
Pharmacist Li smiled and said: "This kid has great magical powers and is very good!"
In his heart, he regarded this child as the child in Xiu's womb.
Chuxiu shook his head and said: "The king didn't think so. He was jealous of the child's ability and ordered him to be killed. The child fled into the mountains, and the majestic king actually led an army to chase and kill a seven or eight-year-old child.
!”
She had a look of disapproval on her face.
Pharmacist Li couldn't help but ask: "Did the child escape?"
Chuxiu said: "The child fled to Gushe Mountain late at night. I saw the moon in the sky was round and big, just like... just like the moonlit night of the Zhongyuan Festival that year."
She actually thought of the moonlit night of the Zhongyuan Dynasty that she had spent with Pharmacist Li for the first time.
Pharmacist Li wanted to know whether the child could escape, so he didn't answer and waited for Chu Xiu to continue talking.
Chuxiu said: "The child fled here, and the king had already caught up with him. The child turned into a golden dragon and burrowed into the cracks in the rocks. The king slashed it with his sword, but the dragon's tail was not able to sink into the stone, and was actually killed.
Cut it off and drop it into the mountains, and it will turn into a spring of living water; when the dragon's blood splashes everywhere, it will turn into a waterway as complex as a honeycomb and as dense as a spider's web."
When Medicine Master Li heard that the child turned into a golden dragon and burrowed into the rocks, but still had its tail cut off, he felt uncomfortable and remained silent for the moment.
He only gently pulled up the bedding for Chu Xiu.
Chuxiu suddenly held Yaoshi Li's hands, with fear in his eyes: "Yakashi, that king...that king is born like the Duke of Tang Dynasty."
Her slender fingers holding Medicine Master Li were wet and cold.
Li Yaoshi smiled faintly and comforted Xiu Xiu: "We escaped from Tang Guogong's pursuit during the day, but we still couldn't rest peacefully at night. You are pregnant and too exhausted, so you are in a trance. You see the pursuers in your dreams.
Soldier."
He put Chuxiu's hands into the bedding and caressed the beautiful woman: "There are many side roads in the mountains around here. The mother-in-law of the mountain village said that even the villagers in her village who are accustomed to walking on mountain roads will get lost. Where can the pursuers find us easily? Later
As soon as it gets light, I will arrange the surroundings a little so that no one can find this place."
Chu Xiu knew that Li Yaoshi intended to comfort him, but although he did not completely believe his words at this time, he was very tired after all, so he turned around and fell asleep again.
After listening to the dream about Xiu, Pharmacist Li found it difficult to fall asleep again.
He could no longer tell whether the boy in the dream was a dragon or a child in Chuxiu's womb. The child was chased by the king who looked like the Duke of Tang Dynasty and fled to Gushe Mountain, but he looked like himself.
The most embarrassing thing is that he couldn't escape!
Pharmacist Li was upset and reluctantly closed his eyes for a while. The sky was already dimming.
He went to the forest outside the ancestral hall and cut down some trees to cover the mountain road leading to the ancestral hall. He also made some clues on the side roads to create suspicion.
There are so many waterways in this area that it is already extremely difficult to find the way. After Li Yaoshi's arrangement, the mountains and rivers become even more complicated. There seem to be many paths for birds, but there seems to be no feasible path.
When Medicine Master Li returned to Longzi Temple, Chuxiu had already stood up.
Seeing that she looked very happy, Medicine Master Li asked, "I don't have any more dreams this time. Do you sleep better?"
Chuxiu smiled and said, "I slept better, but I dreamed about that dragon son again."
Li Yaoshi wondered: "Oh, could it be that the golden dragon turned into a boy again?"
Chuxiu nodded and said, "Exactly. He placed a bronze mirror on the road leading to the ancestral hall. The bronze mirror sparkled in the sun, so that the pursuers could not see the ancestral hall."
Chu Xiu's words reminded Li Yaoshi, but he had forgotten that there was an ancient Xuanyuan mirror in his luggage.
Since this ancient mirror was given by a stranger like Xu Hongke, there must be something mysterious about it. Perhaps it is just like Xiu Xiu's dream, and it can hide the pursuers?
Pharmacist Li immediately took out the ancient mirror and was about to leave the temple to arrange it, but was stopped by Chu Xiu: "Pharmacist, Long Zi also said that pheasants can be hunted in the eastern forest behind the temple."
Pharmacist Li knew that the dry food donated by the farmers in the mountain village was about to be used up, and he wanted to hunt some game.
At this time, Chuxiu said that there were pheasants in the forest. After setting up the Xuanyuan ancient mirror, he went hunting in the forest to the east behind the temple.
He was dubious about Chuxiu's dream, but he also wanted to see if what Longzi said was true, so as to clarify his doubts.
When I came to the forest, I saw several mountain pheasants gathered in one place. They did not run away when he appeared, but seemed to be waiting for him to come and catch them.
Pharmacist Li has enjoyed hunting for many years, but he has never seen anything like this.
At this time, he had already believed eighty percent of Chuxiu's dream and Longzi's words.
After Li Yaoshi caught the pheasant, he chose a spring and waterway beside the fork in front of the temple to kill and wash the prey.
He let the blood flow down the fork, spread feathers on the far side of the fork, and set a fire upwind of the fork to grill the pheasants.
He made every effort to lead his pursuers astray.
He roasted the pheasant, buried the remaining charcoal for a while, but deliberately left some traces, and then walked to the ancestral hall with the fragrant roasted pheasant.
Unexpectedly, the surroundings of the ancestral hall were so secretive that even he himself could not find a way back.
He searched for half a day, only to see the sun rising to the middle and then gradually turning westward, and he couldn't help but become anxious.
He searched for a long time and finally heard Chihua's hissing and Chuxiu's call.
However, the ancestral hall was nowhere to be seen, let alone Chuxiu and Chihua.
Pharmacist Li knew that although the barrier he had set up could disturb the sight of visitors, it would never be so magical that no one could be seen even if he heard the human voice.
He knew in his heart that it was the Xuanyuan Ancient Mirror that completely blocked the ancestral hall from sight, so he called out in the direction of Chuxiu's call: "Chuxiu, my sight is blocked by the Xuanyuan Ancient Mirror and I cannot see the path clearly."
I could only hear Xiu anxiously saying: "What should we do?"
When Li Yaoshi heard Chu Xiu's reply, he stood still and stopped moving, and asked at the same time: "Can you see the Xuanyuan ancient mirror?"
Chu Xiu shouted: "You can see it, it's not far in front of you."
Knowing that Chu Xiu was pregnant and could not climb the rock to get the ancient mirror, Li Yaoshi took a few steps forward and asked, "Is it possible that I am walking in this direction to return to the ancestral hall?"
Chu Xiu said: "No, you have to go further to the right."
Pharmacist Li saw that to the right were mountains, rocks, trees, and no roads.
But since Chuxiu asked him to go to the right, he took a few steps to the right and asked again: "Is this the right direction?"
Chuxiu said: "The direction is good, but you have to be careful, there is a mountain stream ahead."
Pharmacist Li walked and asked again and again, regardless of what he saw in his eyes, he just followed Chuxiu's instructions.
Later on, he saw a mountain wall directly in front of him, covered with old trees and vines. He was asked to walk towards the mountain wall when he came out.
He simply closed his eyes and rushed straight into the mountain wall.
