Chapter 25 Chance in the Dream
The last ray of the setting sun is hidden in the north of the mountain. Birds are singing without a trace, insects and beasts are roaring, and the trees swaying in the wind are showing their teeth and claws.
Three people fell asleep in Canglan Pavilion, and the gods finally came in their dreams.
There was a white fog around him, and he couldn't see anything clearly. Zhou Bai was surprised to find that the three of them appeared together, and they were actually connected in a dream.
I don’t know who is in charge. Zhou Bai subconsciously controls the dream. He knows that he is dreaming, and that is a lucid dream.
Disperse!
This was because Zhou Bai wanted the white fog to disperse. The next second, part of the thick white fog actually dispersed.
The dream owner can do what he wants to do in his dream.
They were still in Canglan Pavilion, but the outside of the pavilion didn't look like Zhou Bai's place of recognition.
Just then a ray of golden light floated from the distance.
Zhou Bai had a clear understanding and bowed his hands in greeting: "Pingcang Zhou Bai, I have seen your distinguished master."
The golden light transformed into an illusory human figure, but it did not show its appearance, or Zhou Bai could not see through it.
"I am the mountain god of Tingshan Mountain. You are very interesting, little guy. You actually make me feel friendly."
"Xiaosheng has always been respectful to gods and keen on the joy of mountains and rivers." Zhou Bai said, neither humble nor arrogant.
Jinguang Mountain God took a deep look at Zhou Bai, turned around and started walking around, reciting the Lang Tao Sha that had just been burned to him in the pavilion.
"Wish your wine to the east wind, and let's be calm together... This year's flowers are better than last year's. It's a pity that next year's flowers will be even better. Who do you know?"
"Good words, indeed good words, otherwise they wouldn't wake me up. I'm just curious as to why you are so sad about separation at such a young age."
When Zhou Bai raised his head, a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes. He soon regained his clarity and explained softly: "This song "Lang Tao Sha" was composed with emotion. Standing in Canglan Pavilion, I felt an inexplicable sadness and unwillingness.
.”
"What? If I'm not mistaken, you can actually detect the emotional fluctuations of the gods before you step into the path." The mountain god was a little surprised, but in front of a mortal like Zhou Bai, he was very calm and did not shy away from being seen through his emotions.
Zhou Bai was startled, as if he had suddenly realized something, and sighed: "There is empathy between mountains and rivers. Is the story of Tingshan and Canglan River true?!"
"In the past hundred years, apart from Qi Wu, you are the second mortal who has made me appear."
"I don't care which Taoist book you read about me and Canglan, but your poem "Langtaosha" really captured my emotions. I don't know if it was thousands of years ago, or tens of thousands of years ago, when she and I were at the same time.
Give birth to sanity and rely on each other as companions.”
"He is the water god, and I am the mountain god..."
Gradually, the mountain god of Tingshan, whose face was shrouded in golden light, became the teller, while Zhou Bai became the patient listener.
They sat opposite each other, one god and one mortal like a pair of old friends.
The mountain god didn't notice anything, but Zhou Bai felt cold in his heart. He was under too much pressure. He used his concentration to open the book of fortune, and the status bar favored by the mountain god was glowing slightly.
He didn't know how long he spent in this dream. Combining the memories of his previous life, Zhou Bai finally figured out the whole story from the words of the mountain god of Tingshan Mountain.
When the great catastrophe came in the previous life, the surrounding county towns of Bei'an County were lost one after another, and they were once attacked and killed by the enemy as far as the county town.
Of course, Tingshan was also hit by the disaster. In order to protect the creatures who fled into the mountain, this mountain god stepped forward and fought several battles with the outside gods.
Although the god died here in the end, it still bought Bei'an County enough time to prepare its defenses.
Therefore, the mountain god of Tingshan was officially enthroned by the imperial court in the hope of awakening his soul with the incense of humanity. His story was unearthed by future generations and widely spread.
No one thought that this god who could turn the tide was actually a god of infatuation.
He and Canglan Water God are both innate gods. They have a high mountain and a big river. They are powerful and undisturbed. They live like a couple of gods and gods.
But no matter how powerful the force is, it cannot withstand the changes of time. The mountain is still the same high mountain, but the Canglan River gradually shrinks due to the flow of water vapor in the world.
You must know that the Ningjiang River is the river that crosses Dingzhou, and the original Canglan River is the main branch of the Ningjiang River, which can support countless lives.
One day in the distant years, the Canglan River and the Ningjiang River stopped flowing, and the water flow has been decreasing. Now, it has become a stream.
And this stream may not be able to sustain itself. Now it relies on the protection of the mountain god of Tingshan Mountain, but this is just a forced survival.
Perhaps in more than ten years, or perhaps in a year or two, this "Canglan River" will disappear from the surface of the earth, and the sleeping soul of Canglan will also completely perish.
For the mountain god, the Canglan water god is both a companion and a confidant. Now that he is about to face the separation of life and death, he is naturally extremely sad and has accumulated endless melancholy.
Relying on the "prophetic" information, Zhou Bai wrote about Langtaosha at the Poetry Society, which just relieved the mountain god's affection.
At this moment, the fog outside Cangji Pavilion suddenly shook. The mountain god frowned and waved his hand to calm the turmoil.
But it was obvious that he had exhausted his conversation, and said to Zhou Bai: "I haven't spoken to outsiders for a long time, so I'd like to trouble you to listen to some gossip. Well, it's getting late, so I should give you the benefits you deserve."
"Benefits?" Zhou Bai pretended not to understand.
"Well, I have an agreement with this kid's ancestors. As long as you submit poems that suit my taste, this god will show up and show mercy." The mountain god pointed to Qi Hua, who was lying unconscious on the side.
"Let me see, what do you need, eh?..."
A pair of golden eyes glanced back and forth at Zhou Bai. Zhou Bai felt that his whole body was being seen through, but when it came to his soul and the secrets in his mind, he seemed to be covered and protected.
"It's weird. You, a mortal, have secrets in your body. Haha, that's all. I'm not one of those greedy and foolish young people in the city."
"You have a mean face and a sign of a short life. The root cause is the decline of luck. Although I can't see the reason for the decline, there are ways to save you."
After saying that, a drop of water appeared on the mountain god's flat palm. At first glance, it was just an ordinary drop of water.
However, when Zhou Bai was motioned to look closer, Zhou Bai saw a foreign object in the water droplets, which seemed to be a golden-red carp swimming inside.
"Zunshen, what is this?" Zhou Bai asked doubtfully.
In his past life memory, he knew that there were resources to increase luck here, but he didn't know what they were.
"The water-veined dragon energy intercepted by Canglan can also be called dragon soul essence. If mortals get it, they can change their lives." The mountain god looked at the water droplets, as if remembering the past, and said sadly.
Zhou Bai was shocked and said: "Like the Taoist tradition of finding dragon points, can you point out hidden dragons? But they are earth dragons."
The mountain god nodded and said, "That's right. If you accept this water-veined dragon soul from me, you can turn your mortal life into the life of a hidden dragon. You can get a glimpse of the ninety-five great positions. In the process of fighting for the dragon, your luck will naturally change."
"I'm afraid it's just a matter of death and no life." Zhou Bai naturally didn't only see the benefits, but said extremely calmly.
"With your current foundation, it's almost the same. But without mentioning these things, there is a glimmer of hope, whether you want it or not."
"of course yes!"
