Chapter 65 Exploring the Island
"secret?"
Gui Ling looked as if he had done something wrong, and he said, "I...I will become an adult."
Xu Huo was very curious: "What kind? Show my brother?"
"En..." Jiu Ling hesitated to speak.
This little guy has many scruples about his appearance at a young age?
Xu Huo encouraged: "Our Gui Ling is so obedient, he must be good-looking when he grows up, show him to brother."
".."
Seeing that Gui Ling was still hesitating, Xu Huo asked in confusion: "Are you disabled or disfigured, and you don't want to show it to brother?"
"No—" Gui Ling pursed his lips, rolled his round eyes, and said quickly: "Brother, I'll show you later." After speaking, he seemed to be running away, and ran into the cave.
"If you don't watch it, don't watch it, why be ashamed?" Xu Huo laughed.
In the coastal area, there is a place called Jumu Village, which is famous for seeing mirages.
Especially this month, mirages appear frequently, causing tourists to be full.
Although the locals are familiar with mirages, outsiders are very curious. For example, two people, one large and one small, sitting on the iron plate squid food stall are eating and asking the food stall owner about the common spectacle here.
"No, mirages are quite frequent recently, so our small business is also booming." The owner of the food stall was chatting with an older handsome boy.
The young man asked curiously, "Boss, I want to ask you, where do the mirages in the village usually appear?"
"Jumu Village is near the sea, and most of the mirages are above the sea, which is in the direction of Wuming Island." The boss said vividly, "Wuming Island is full of fog all year round. You students must have learned in school that when there is a lot of fog, it is easy to form. Mirage, don’t tell me, those pictures are quite mysterious, sometimes they are people in strange costumes, sometimes they are mythical beasts, sometimes there is nothing, just landscapes, haha, I have seen it several times this month. "
The young man didn't say anything about the mirage that appeared due to the fog, and pointed to the distance and asked, "Is the nameless island in that direction?"
The boss glanced at his fingers and nodded, "That's the direction. There are boats on the beach that can go directly to the island." The boss looked at the well-behaved fat doll next to the boy, and said in a low voice: "Look, you are all student dolls. Let me be honest, in fact, there is nothing on that island, I really don’t recommend you to go to the island specially, the boat ticket is not cheap, people just point to the gimmick of the mirage to make money.”
With his mouth full, the chubby boy raised his oily chubby finger and smiled to express his gratitude, "Thank you, boss."
"You're welcome, you guys are delicious." Seeing a guest coming, the boss went to greet other guests.
Of course the handsome boy is Xu Huo, and the little fat boy is of course Gui Ling.
They've been wandering around Jumu Village for a day, and they haven't found any signs of the entrance to Wuman Valley.
Because the map given by Teacher Zhiwan only hooked up to Jumu Village, so Xu Huo had to look for the details, which is called fate.
Gui Ling ate so much that his mouth was full of oil, and his fat face was covered with chili and cumin grains. He smacked his lips and asked, "Brother, is the witch very powerful? Is the witch a god or a ghost?"
"It doesn't belong, it's its own system." Xu Huo took advantage of the surroundings and passed a small piece of octopus meat under the table.
The dog tail under the table happily opened its mouth in brackets, trying hard to fill the octopus into the brackets, and its eyes turned crooked, "It's delicious."
Gui Ling continued the question just now, "Brother, what kind of system is Wu?"
Xu Huo dipped his chopsticks in water to write a word for witches on the table, and explained with a smile: "Look, witches are horizontal from top to bottom, and a vertical bridge in the middle, so witches are the ones in charge of bridges. In ancient times, witches were connected The middle manager of heaven and earth."
His voice may have been a little louder, causing an aunt at the next table to turn her head. The aunt is in her fifties, with a kind face and plain clothes. Little teacher, you just said what a witch is, do you know the difference between a witch and a god?"
Xu Huan panicked when he was overheard and called a little teacher when he didn't want to speak, "Auntie, you're being polite."
"I'm not being polite, little teacher, I want to hear it, so you just talk about it." Auntie smiled kindly.
Xu Huo smiled embarrassedly, and then said: "I also read it from the book, because of the importance of witches, in ancient times, witches were as famous as gods, and human beings worshiped witches more, because they are a group of people who are in charge of the elixir. .”
"Wow, that sounds good, little teacher, please tell me more." Auntie listened with high spirits, it seemed that no matter what age she was, she was full of curiosity.
Seeing the elder's question, Xu Huo stopped being too modest, and continued to explain the contents of the book: "Pangu Nirvana deified Sanqing, iron and blood transformed the witch clan, so the witch clan does not cultivate the primordial spirit, but only trains the body, and the witch clan uses Cultivate the body and enter the Tao."
"Cultivating the body?" Gui Ling became curious, "Is that witch very fierce?"
Hearing the question of Gui Ling, Auntie laughed dumbly, "The little guy really knows how to think."
Xu Huo also shook his head with a smile, "I don't think so. On the contrary, they should be very gentle, because...they are all women."
"Ah—" Gui Ling tilted his head in surprise.
You Qian under the table rolled his eyes, "I don't even remember such basic common sense, my lord's memory is really eaten by dogs."
Xu Huo at the table was still explaining: "It's a male village and a female witch, so Wuman Village should be a women's village."
After Gui Ling finished eating the octopus, he grabbed another ice cream and licked it, "So it's the country of daughters?"
"Maybe." Xu Huo was not sure, after all, he had never been inside.
"You two are really interesting." Auntie smiled into a chrysanthemum, showing more kindness, "In return, I know a legend is related to this place, do you want to hear it?"
Xu Huo replied politely: "Auntie, tell me."
"Yes, yes—" Gui Ling also shouted from the side.
The aunt began to tell: "There is a legend in ancient times that this place got its name because of a giant tree..."
According to legend, the name of this village is Jumu, because there are many mirages here, and in the mirage scenes here, a big tree has appeared many times, but the big tree in the illusion has a real source, according to the memories of the old people in the nearby village On the opposite side of Wuming Island, there used to be a huge old tree, which was the one in the mirage. However, that old tree was destroyed by wildfire, leaving only the name of Jumu Village, which is rarely known to the world. .
After the aunt finished speaking, she smiled and looked at the two of them.
"The thing in the mirage appeared on the opposite side?" Xu Huo was thoughtful.
Gui Ling's eyes also brightened up, "On the other side, brother."
Xu Huo had a flash of inspiration: "Could it be that the mirage may also be a mirror effect?"
"Who knows, I just think that legend is a bit interesting." The aunt stood up with a smile, holding the baked egg in her hand, "I'm very happy talking with you today, I'm going back early to cook for my grandson."
"Goodbye, Auntie—"
After the aunt left, Xu Huo was still thinking about the legend, and murmured: "If the real thing has been found on the opposite side of the nameless island, then will the place we are looking for be also on the opposite side of the island?"
"Brother, that aunt..." Gui Ling pointed at the distance with an ice cream stick.
"Huh?" Xu Huo looked in the direction he pointed, and there was nothing unusual about the people coming and going on the road.
Gui Ling explained: "She was walking in the middle of the road and suddenly disappeared."
"It's gone?" Xu Huo was startled for a moment, then suddenly became excited, "Could it be that people from Wuman Valley are helping us?"
"That's great—" Gui Ling also smiled, and now, when he sees Xu Huo happy, he will be happy with him for no reason.
Xu Huo looked at the misty nameless island in the distance, his eyes sparkled: "Then we should study the opposite side of the nameless island."
Although he was looking for the opposite side of the Unnamed Island, Xu Huo also felt a little difficult when he saw the map.
The mirage seems to be above the nameless island, but when it appears, it is said that it will occupy a piece of the sky. Isn't the range on the opposite side too big?
Xu Huo looked at the map around him and frowned.
"Brother, Wuming Island is round, does it look like the sun?" Gui Ling suddenly asked.
Xu Huo took a closer look, and found that Wuming Island was really a perfect circle on the sea.
round?sun?
Xu Huo's heart moved, and he said excitedly: "I see..." He pointed to the map and explained to Gui Ling, "The circle should be similar to the sun. We know that the sun belongs to yang, and the people in Wuman Valley are mostly women, which belong to yin."
He pointed to another place on the map not far from Unnamed Island, "Here, south of Unnamed Island, there is a small crescent-shaped island."
"Brother, I know, the moon is Yin—" Gui Ling answered happily.
"But..." Xu Huo frowned again, "This Crescent Island is a scenic spot, if there is really something, it should have been discovered long ago, right?"
"Brother, go, let's go and have a look." Gui Ling was optimistic.
Afterwards, Xu Huo bought a half-price ticket for adults, took Gui Ling and followed a group of tourists on the ferry to Crescent Island.
The double-decker ferry was full of people upstairs and downstairs, and it was a vast area. They found a corner with few people and stood there, just in time to hear the tour guide of a nearby tour group advocating Nameless Island and Crescent Island.
The tour guide exaggerated the various legends of Unnamed Island, and finally talked about the Crescent Island next to the Unnamed Island, and concluded: "The Nameless Island is famous now, but before, the Crescent Island to the south of the Unnamed Island was even more famous. Today we are going to see the Crescent Island. Let me talk about the four scenic spots on the island separately."
Xu Huo and Gui Ling's ears perked up when they heard the description of the attractions on Crescent Island.
The tour guide said loudly, "There are four scenic spots on Crescent Island, namely, one cliff, two stones, three wells and four shores. This cliff is the mirror cliff. This mirror cliff has something to see. Let’s say it’s amazing or not. Tourists and friends can go there to take pictures to see if they look good on the camera. It is recommended that any good-looking girl can try it. If the young man likes it, then it will be a romantic relationship on the mirror cliff. A thousand miles of marriage will lead by a thread. , Ershi is talking about the Sun Observation Stone. There is a huge black rock in the north of Crescent Island. Watching the sunrise on it in the morning, it is simply magnificent and beautiful. Mitsui may have to be called Sanshu now. , that is, there is an ancient well on the island, which is said to be 30 to [-] meters deep, but it has been dry for many years. It is said that in the last century, a rich man hired someone to dig it down, but no water came out no matter how hard he dug it. The possibility is great, right? But this well is not willing to flatter you. Not only does it not produce water, but it deliberately opposes you. Just a few dozen years ago, a banyan tree grew in the well, and now the well has become a well tree. We all know it, there is an old saying - a tree grows in a well, and its roots are old and deep. How deep is the root for such a thick tree? What about the four shores? It is the east of Crescent Island, and there is a Jinshi shore. Legend has it that Jinshi The stones on the shore contain gold, which will glow in the sun. It’s strange, right? Unfortunately, I don’t have that ability. If I can extract it, I can make a fortune. Tourists and friends, don’t tell me, you are here, Seeing is believing these miraculous things.”
What he told was vivid and humorous, which made the tourists laugh.
Seeing what the tour guide said so miraculously, Gui Ling Xiaopang also showed longing on his face: "Brother, I want to see Gujing and Jingya."
"Look, brother will watch with you, everyone is here, just looking around." As for Gui Ling, Xu Huo naturally wanted to pamper him.
After going to the island, walk east through the crowded Qingshi street. Although there are simple houses on both sides, they are full of all kinds of shouts.
"There doesn't seem to be anything special about this island?" Xu Huodong couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.
"Brother, go over there." Gui Ling squeezed wherever there were many people, pulled Xu Huo into a small road, squeezed for a long time, and finally came to an open space at the end of the small road, where weeds were everywhere and thorns were overgrown. An octagonal well.
