"Hey, Dugu, why do I feel like I'm going on the wrong path?" Xiao Qinxuan tilted her head, a little confused.

After deciding to go to Wuyun Mountain to see, Dugu Ju and the others did not set off immediately. Instead, they stayed in Yunzhong County for a day and wandered around. They drove to Wuyun Mountain in the morning of the next day.

Yunzhong County is full of clouds and fog, which is really not to deceive people! The thick white fog covers Yunzhong County, and its visibility is only a few feet square. Only those tall buildings can barely expose the tiles on the eaves, and the rest of the low buildings are all flooded by heavy fog. If you look down from the air at this moment, Yunzhong County is like being in a sea of ​​clouds, with thick fog rolling and clouds connected together. This is why the word "Cloud" in Yunzhong County comes.

The more the two drove towards Wuyun Mountain, the fog became thicker and thicker, almost to the point where they could only hear the sound and no one could see him. Xiao Qinxuan suddenly became a little scared and hurriedly sat closer to Dugu Jue. Dugu Jue looked down at the little girl and touched her head. Xiao Qinxuan squinted her eyes and smiled at him, leaning tighter.

"My mother-in-law, can you ask about something?" Dugu Juele stopped the carriage and asked in the fog.

Xiao Qinxuan was shocked. At this moment, the fog was everywhere. Where did the old lady come from? Could it be that Dugu Jue deliberately pretended to be a ghost and scared him? But seeing Dugu Jue's sincere look, it was a little different, so he followed the direction Dugu Jue looked over. Xiao Qinxuan narrowed her eyes and looked hard. He heard the subtle footsteps. After a while, she saw a simple white-haired old woman wearing a simple dress walking slowly with a crutch.

"Please say this young master!" the old woman said slowly.

"Grandma, we are going to worship on the mountain. Can you tell me where to go?" Xiao Qinxuan asked first without waiting for Dugu Jue to answer.

"What a cute little girl!" My wife looked kind and liked it very much. "Where is the worship, there is a fork in front of you. Walk to the left, walk for a while, and then climb up the mountain and you will arrive!"

"Thank you, grandma!" Xiao Qinxuan smiled sweetly.

After Dugu Jue thanked the old woman, he drove his carriage and horses and walked in the direction pointed by the old man for nearly an hour. As the morning sun rose in the east, the morning light began to slowly dispel the thick fog, and his vision finally became wider, but what he saw was confusing.

"Didn't it mean that the incense is soaring on Wuyun Mountain? Why didn't anyone see it all the way?" Xiao Qinxuan began to complain, "Dugu, have you gone to the opposite direction!"

"Well, why can I tell you clearly what I am!" Dugu Jue said.

"Why did that old lady point us wrong?" Xiao Qinxuan tilted her head and thought for a while, "Is there a bandit's nest in front of me? That old lady is also theirs. She specializes in kidnapping us outsiders. As soon as we get to the place, they will attack us and take us down. Dugu, you will probably be cut into eight pieces by them and throw them into the mountains to feed the wolf. I am like a flower and jade, and I am unparalleled. Maybe I will be caught as the wife of the village. Hey, it's so miserable!"

"What are you thinking about all day long?" Dugu Jue pointed at Xiao Qinxuan's forehead.

"Just kidding, stingy!" Xiao Qinxuan muttered, "Hey, Dugu, aren't you a cultivator? Aren't you a clerk? A cultivator has the ability to see it with a thousand-mile eye? Can't you see it with your skills?"

"Since you come, you will be at ease!" Dugu Jue smiled, "It's not necessary to use these skills. Sometimes you will feel different when you experience them in this ordinary identity!"

"I don't understand!" Xiao Qinxuan shook her head and said.

"I will understand naturally in the future!" Dugu Jue said with a smile, "Continue to go! Let's see what you will encounter!"

The two of them walked along the road for a long time before they arrived at the foot of a green mountain, settled their cars and horses, and decided to climb the mountain.

After passing through a Lingxing Gate at the foot of the mountain, which was eroded by wind and rain, and was full of vicissitudes of life, there were stone steps covered with fallen leaves. Many of the stone steps were covered with cracks, some were even half broken, or were separated by huge rocks washed down from the mountain. The forest was heavy in moisture and the fog dissipated slowly. You could see some towering ancient trees around. If you were far away, you would be slim and you could not see clearly.

"Dugu!" Xiao Qinxuan swallowed her saliva, walked closer to Dugujue, and reached out to hold his hand, "I always feel that someone is staring at us! This place is not a place that is so popular. I must have taken the wrong path!"

"Not afraid, there is Lingxing Gate at the foot of the mountain, and there is also a manual staircase. Although it has been disrepair for so many years, it proves that this place was indeed a place of sacrifice before. It may have been abandoned for some reason. There are more gods worshipping, and it is also good to have a more blessing. There is no loss when you worship it once!"

"Well, I didn't expect that you actually believe in these things. Are you not a cultivator?"

"The cultivator is also a flesh and blood body, and he also has seven emotions and six desires!"

"God-talking!"

"Oh!"

"Wow!" Before we reached the top of the mountain, the stone steps had reached the end, the fog had dissipated a lot, and Xiao Qinxuan couldn't help but be amazed by the scenery in front of her.

In front of me is an endless sea of ​​bamboo, lush and lush, overlapping, the scenery is picturesque and beautiful.

"Hey, what kind of bamboo is this? So many dots are on it!" Xiao Qinxuan asked.

"Um!" Dugu Jue approached, gently stroked the bamboo body with his hand, and explained, "Xiang Fei Zhu!"

The bamboo body is spotted with spots, purple-brown, like a beauty crying blood and tears. It is Xiangfei Zhu with a sad and beautiful love background story.

At the end of the stone steps, the bamboo forest was followed by the next one, and the next became a dirt road. Xiangfei bamboo was born on both sides. The road was covered with yellow bamboo leaves, extending to a very far place. At the beginning, it continued to climb up and then became smooth. When I thought I was about to reach the top of the mountain, I took a sharp turn and went to the foot of the mountain. If it weren't for this road, it would really make people think that I was going in the wrong direction. Walking in the forest, there was a breeze whispering, and the bamboo forest rustled, like a whispering, or crying, which was quite commensurate with the Xiangfei bamboo, which made people feel sad.

After walking for a while, I walked out of the bamboo sea, and my eyes suddenly became clear. The mountains were surrounded by green green, and the eyes were filled with quietness. I never thought that there was a small lake in this mountain, surrounded by mountains on three sides, with clear and transparent surfaces, and water surrounded by mountains. There was a bamboo house in the middle of the lake, which was simple and simple in shape, and a bamboo bridge connected the bamboo house to the shore.

Xiao Qinxuan was about to step onto the bamboo bridge, and suddenly heard the music, as if it was coming from the bamboo house. It turned out that there was someone living in this place. Just as Xiao Qinxuan was about to turn around and said something to Dugu Jue, she saw Dugu Jue making a ban gesture. She had to swallow the words and retreat to Dugu Jue, and stood by the lake with him, listening to the melodious music of the people.

When the song fell, a woman chanted quietly:

"The rain in Shu Mountains is green and tearful, and the jade branches are graceful and cool in the heart. The shadows of the mountain light and pond are clear and common, and the winding paths are clear and distant dust. Thousands of threads produce cloudy air, and the branches are lush and leaves are rippling with sunlight. The breeze blows thousands of leaves dance, and the silk and bamboo are still fragrant after the ears."

After the chanting, the music continued and it stopped for a moment. However, the lingering sound surrounds the beams and echoes in the forest, and refuses to disperse for a long time.

Dugu Jue clapped his hands gently and sighed, "A pure land nourishes the mind, and the sound of the bamboo sea is more intoxicating. The free gods ride on the blue waves, and the peaceful and peaceful chanting brushes against the world. Good!"

"Thank you, Young Master Shengyu. If you don't dislike me, please go to Xiaozhu, Lake to have a cup of tea!" The woman in the room invited.

"I'm disturbing!" Dugu Jue bowed his fists and raised his feet to the bamboo bridge. Xiao Qinxuan hurriedly grabbed Dugu Jue's hand and followed his steps.

When the two walked to the door, the bamboo door of Xiaozhu was opened. The person who opened the door was a boy about seven or eight years old, but he looked a little scary. The child had only one right eye, his left eye was sunken, his nose was cut off, leaving two holes, his ears were crooked, his mouth was oblique, his fingers were sticky, and his body was completely covered. Only one leg was normal, and the other leg was wrapped in a strange posture on a wooden stick, as if it was used to support it.

Dugu Jue frowned, and Xiao Qinxuan was so scared that she covered her mouth and did not dare to scream, for fear of hurting him.

"Please sit down, two of you!" Perhaps they were so surprised that they both forgot that there were two other people in the room.

One of them is a beautiful woman, not a peerless appearance, but fresh and refined. Her black and shiny hair is tied around her head, fixed with a wooden hairpin, which has more mature charm. It may be inconspicuous when you see it at first sight, but if you look at it again, it will definitely be deeply imprinted in your heart and will not be forgotten for a long time. A thin girl next to the woman, because she is too thin and cannot judge her age. Her big eyes are looking at Dugu Ju and the other two vigilantly, and her body is trembling in fear, leaning tightly in the woman's arms.

Dugu Jue frowned deeper, his eyes were deep, and he was confused, but he still pulled Xiao Qinxuan and walked in and sat opposite the woman. As soon as he sat down, the disabled boy brought the tea up just now. Although he was inconvenient, his movements were extremely virtuous. After serving the tea, he stepped behind the woman.

Xiao Qinxuan felt uncomfortable all over, and she was absent-minded. She picked up the teacup and drank it. The tea was in her mouth, which made her stick her tongue out, looking very funny. Dugu Jue and the woman shook their heads and chuckled, and the boy laughed, but there was no sound. If it weren't for this strange appearance, she might have been very handsome when she smiled. The nervous little girl smiled quietly. Xiao Qinxuan stuck out her tongue at her and blinked her eyes. She was so scared that she crawled into the woman's arms. The woman gently touched her head, as loving as a mother.

"I'm downstairs Dugu Jue, this little girl's name is Su Qinxuan. I walked here and went up the mountain to have a trip. But I didn't expect that it would disturb the girl. Please forgive me!" Dugu Jue said.

"Young Master Dugu is kind to you. I am Shuyu in the clouds, just call me Shuyu." As he said that, Shuyu pointed to the boy and girl beside him, "They are brothers and sisters, and the brother is Jinglong and the younger sister Jingfeng. I usually call them Xiaolong and Xiaofenger. Their parents died early, and they live here temporarily without any relatives or reasons."

"Miss Shu Yu is kind!" Dugu Jue said.

"Yeah, my mother said that Sister Shu Yu is such a kind-hearted person, and she is called Guanyin's rebirth!" Xiao Qinxuan also said.

Shu Yu shook his head and smiled slightly, "They are young and have a bad life. No one with a little love will ignore it."

Jing Feng hugged Shu Yu's arm tightly, and Jing Long said silently. Dugu Jue frowned, Xiao Qinxuan wanted to speak but stopped, and the room suddenly became quiet.

"Miss Shu Yu, I dare to ask where this place is. Qin Xuan and I set foot in Yunzhong County for the first time. I don't know much about it. I originally intended to go to Wuyun Mountain. After an old woman's guidance, I came here!" Dugu Jue broke his calm and said.

I never thought that when I heard the three words "Wu Yunshan", Jing Long trembled unconsciously, his eyes also had fierce red lights, and his teeth were clattering, as if he had an irreconcilable hatred. He wanted to kill him and then quickly. Jing Feng also showed a terrified expression and tears flowed.

Xiao Qinxuan was a little scared and moved her body slightly closer to Dugu Jue. Her little hand quietly held Dugu Jue's hand under the table. She felt the warmth coming from Dugu Jue's palm and felt at ease.

Shu Yu pulled both children to him, hugged them gently, humming an unknown melody, gentle and warm, and made people feel calm. Jing Long calmed down and realized that he had lost his composure. He quickly gave Dugu Jue and Xiao Qinxuan an apology smile. Jing Feng slowly fell asleep. Shu Yu got up, carried her to the inner room, put her on the bed, covered her with a quilt, and confirmed that she had a stable sleep, so she walked out again.

"Sorry!" Shu Yu bowed to apologize, and Dugu Jue and the others said it was okay. Shu Yu then said, "This is Shuyu Mountain, Wuyun Mountain is far away from this place, in another direction. The old woman you met is probably Grandma Lin. She often goes up the mountain to visit these two children."

"Well? Shuyushan, isn't that the same name as my sister?" Xiao Qinxuan asked.

"Well, that's true, it's also a coincidence!" Shu Yu smiled slightly, as gentle as the wind.

"We asked the old lady at that time and said we were going to worship, so the old lady pointed here!" Xiao Qinxuan tried hard to recall the conversation she had met the old lady, and confirmed that she had remembered correctly, then she said.

"Worship!" Shu Yu said with a smile, "Well, there was a shrine in Shu Yu Mountain in the past, just on the top of the mountain. After no one came, it was abandoned. Now there is no road left. The shrine is probably too dilapidated. Grandma Lin is old and has a little bit of a good memory. She often comes here when she is young. It is probably because her memory stays at that time, so she has pointed you this way!"

"Hey, that's how it is!" Xiao Qinxuan was shocked.

"But by chance, you can only appreciate the Xiangfei forest, which is worth the trip." Dugu Jue said.

"Well, it's better for me to tell the story of this mountain as Mr. Dugu and sister Qin Xuan," Shu Yu said with a smile.

"Well, okay! I like listening to stories the most." Xiao Qinxuan clapped her hands and said.

"Well, a great writer who is known as a poet ghost once wrote a poem called "Xiang Concubine", which reads:

Yun Zhu is immortal for thousands of years and will always accompany Qin E to the Xiang River.

The Man Niang sang the cold sky, and the nine mountains were quiet and the tears were red.

The phoenix is ​​farewell to the phoenix and smoke in the wu wu, and the witch clouds and the rain in Shu are connected from afar.

The sad autumn air is filled with green maples, and the ancient dragon chants in the cool night waves.

The names of Wuyun Mountain and Shuyu Mountain are taken from the poem "Wuyun and Shuyu are connected from a distance". The two mountains are smooth, like a gentle woman. The poet compared the two mountains to Ehuang Nuying. The county in the clouds is full of fog, and there is a feeling of melancholy and sadness, just like the souls of the two concubines and Emperor Shun are interacting with each other in the misty clouds."

"Wow! What a beautiful artistic conception, I think it's a bit weird to listen to 'Wu Yun' alone. It turns out that you have to be with Shu Yu to have a taste. Wu Yun Shu Yu, well, it's not bad!" Xiao Qinxuan said.

"Well, right, Wu Yun and Shu Yu are originally Sister Mountain!" Something flashed in Shu Yu's eyes. Although it was well concealed, it was still captured by Dugu Jue.

"Well, since it's Sister Mountain and there is such a beautiful love story as a support, why are you so arrogant now? Wuyun Mountain is incense and Shuyu Mountain is so lonely?" Dugu Jue asked.

"Young Master asked well!" Shu Yu smiled slightly.

"It was Miss Shu Yu who guided her well!" Dugu Jue also responded with a smile.

"Young Master is indeed not an ordinary person!" Shu Yu continued to smile.

"Each of each other!" Dugu Jue continued to respond with a smile.

"Oh, what are you two fighting for the puzzle?" Xiao Qinxuan was listening to the story well, but the two of them suddenly confused themselves through the question and answer.

"I am helpless, I hope you don't blame me!" Shu Yu looked ashamed, and then said, "If the young master must hold you accountable, please only target me, don't make things difficult for Xiaolong and Xiaofenger!"

Jing Long had already stood up. When he was in front of Shu Yu, his already terrifying face became even more ferocious and could not speak, but a low voice came from his throat, as if a beast was roaring.

"Ha!" Dugu suddenly smiled, "Am I so scary? I am a good person!"

"Uh... Dugu, how can a good person say he is a good person? Generally, only bad people say it!" Xiao Qinxuan immediately reminded next to her.

"Well, is that?" Dugu Jue raised his eyebrows, shook his head, and turned to Shu Yu, "Well, then you can talk about it!"
