During the meal that day, Huwa told Ayuan about Fanbo's visit to him just now, and told Miss Ayuan that she was going to participate in the pilgrimage to the fairy city. In addition to the secrets about Mr. Shenliao's Chiwangqiu, Huwa would learn from Fanbo.
I told A Yuan the truth about what I heard. Many of the inside stories were beyond the reach of ordinary people.
This is of course a "good thing" for Huwa, which means that Cuizhen Village has completely regarded him as a member of the tribe and has given him such a rare opportunity. And Huwa's purpose is to see Miss Ayuan.
Attitude - do you want him to go?
Huwa did not ask directly, and Miss Ayuan did not express her position directly. She just looked at Huwa with a look in her eyes and said, "Do you want to go?"
Huwa scratched the back of his ears: "I actually want to broaden my horizons, but I won't be in the village this winter. You have to take good care of yourself."
Miss A Yuan's expression was a little serious, but when she heard Hu Wa's last words, she softened and said with a smile: "There is nothing going on in the village in winter. You don't have to worry about me. You should worry more about yourself. The pilgrimage to the fairy city is very long."
It’s not easy to leave. I heard that almost one-third of people will be injured or seriously ill every year, and it will take a long time to recover, and some people can’t even recover.”
Huwa: "Oh? I heard from Uncle Fan that the pilgrimage to the fairy city is very difficult and dangerous, but it didn't say how dangerous it is. Could there be any accidental casualties?"
Ayuan glanced at Huwa: "The long and difficult journey is inherently dangerous. Although we are escorted by Chi Wangqiu disciples, we will not encounter any bandits or beasts, but we still have to drive the car and transport the goods through the rugged and steep road.
Traveling in the mountains and wilds, experiencing severe cold winds and snow that are not seen in Ba Yuan, slipping and falling, or being weak and contracting diseases, all of which may lead to casualties.
In fact, even if you live in a village, there will be accidental injuries and various diseases on weekdays. Of course, it is unavoidable on the pilgrimage to the fairy city. That's why Chiwangqiu requires that those who participate in the pilgrimage to the fairy city must be from every tribe.
Or the strongest and healthiest person in the village, and the age must not be more than thirty years old."
Huwa: “Since there are such requirements, why are there so many injuries?”
Miss Ayuan glanced at Huwa again, as if to say - don't you even understand this kind of thing? She rarely looked at people like this, but today she seemed to particularly like to look at Huwa like this, and she was still very patient.
He explained: "Strong people will also have injuries and illnesses. After all, the pilgrims who participate in the fairy city are ordinary people.
Since you have spent a winter alone in the mountains, you should also know that people are easily injured and sick in that environment. The environment on the pilgrimage road to the fairy city is much worse than the mountains and wilderness in this area. Although injuries are not uncommon,
They will receive treatment. Very few people die, but there will inevitably be three or five accidents every year."
The situations that Miss Ayuan introduced to Huwa are not big secrets among the Bai'e clan, but she told them in more detail than Fan Bo. Every year, about one-third of the pilgrims who participate in the fairy city will be injured or sick.
There are also monks from Chiwangqiu in the team, so injuries and illnesses are basically treated. However, monks are not omnipotent. A few people lose their lives every year, about one percent.
Huwa asked again: "I heard from Uncle Fan that pilgrimage to the fairy city is also an opportunity to seek immortality. So among so many people, how many people can seek immortality every year?"
Miss A Yuan glanced at him again and replied calmly: "You should already know that the so-called immortal fate is just embarking on the path to heaven and becoming a monk. Nowadays, it is mostly called cultivation in Ba Yuan.
The monks in Chiwangqiu are not real immortals. Fan Bo also entered the first level and practiced. Now he has cultivated in the second level, but he is still the leader of the village."
Huwa: "What I want to ask is not why the immortal fate is there, but how many people have such an opportunity?"
Miss Ayuan: "I heard that this is similar to the number of people who die accidentally every year. There are always probably three or five... In fact, if each tribe and village follows the requirements of Chiwangqiu and selects the most suitable person, then this will
There doesn’t have to be so many injuries or accidents.”
Huwa: "Are there many villages that do not select the most suitable people? If they do this, won't Chiwangqiu hold them accountable?"
Miss Ayuan said sarcastically: "What are you pursuing? Those people have already reaped the consequences!"
Miss Ayuan believes that if a tribesman is selected to participate in the pilgrimage to the fairy city in the current Cuizhen Village, he is indeed the most suitable, regardless of Huwa's status as a foreigner. The annual pilgrimage to the fairy city not only symbolizes the participation of the participants in the village or tribe
His position is also an opportunity to seek immortality, so those who know the inside story want to secretly arrange for their trusted disciples to participate.
In a place like Cuizhen Village, only one person can participate in the pilgrimage to the fairy city every year, and no one has been blessed with immortality for a long time. If the patriarch Fan Bo does not inform him in private, even the pilgrims who participate in the fairy city will not know some of the inside information.
I just followed the team and performed a very honorable mission.
As a second-level monk, Fan Bo was a registered disciple of Chiwangqiu. Not everyone could know the situation he introduced to Huwa. There were many participants who followed Chiwangqiu's requirements since ancient times.
He was chosen in a daze. But the pilgrimage to the Immortal City has a long history, and all the factions belonging to the Bai'e clan will send people to participate. Of course, there are still people who know the inside story.
Who doesn’t want their children to be blessed with immortality? Even if there is only a one percent chance, they should try to arrange for “one of their own” rather than the most qualified person in the village or tribe. Some young people, such as a certain big shot
The son-nephew learned about the pilgrimage to the fairy city from his father, and of course he hoped to be elected through the power of his father.
As for the so-called hardships and dangers, you cannot experience them firsthand, and most young people are full of self-confidence and will not admit that they are weak. They are more willing to believe that they are the lucky ones who can seek immortal fate. Therefore, many villages and tribes have rules
The most suitable people are dispatched in a disciplined manner, but in some places it is a different situation.
Therefore, most of the people who are injured, sick, or even die accidentally on the pilgrimage to Fairy City every year are those who do not meet the requirements of Chiwangqiu. Chiwangqiu has made requirements, but some villages or tribes do not comply. As a holy place for outsider cultivation,
Chiwangqiu, I would not be bored enough to explore why they did not comply one by one. Those people's own experiences are the best punishment.
Of course, those who can be installed are not actually very powerful. Real big shots, such as Fan Chong back then, do not need to participate in any pilgrimage to the fairy city.
No one will speak out about these situations publicly, and ordinary villagers will not even think about it. It is all analyzed by Miss A Yuan for Huwa. After hearing what Miss A Yuan said, Huwa felt that she was more extraordinary the more he looked at her. At the same time,
I also feel that I am really discerning! Not only is he beautiful, dignified and intelligent, but his knowledge is far beyond that of ordinary village girls.
Miss Ayuan talked for a long time, and when she saw Huwa just looking at her in a daze, she lowered her head and coughed softly and said: "Ignore others, you must be careful when you go... At least bring warm clothes, I
I’ll prepare two sets for you.”
Huwa became the hunting captain of Cuizhen Village during these days, and he harvested a lot of prey. He had already saved several complete animal skins. He could use half of them to exchange for thick felt cloth to keep out the cold, and the animal skins themselves were also
It can be made into a fur coat to withstand the wind and snow. It was Miss Ayuan who took the initiative and made two sets of clothing for Huwa to wear in the severe winter and let him put them in his backpack and take them away.
It was finally time to set off from Cuizhen Village. A total of more than a dozen villagers were traveling together, led by the patriarch Fan Bo, driving a car loaded with the Immortal Valley just harvested this year. Of course, these people were not all going on pilgrimage to the Immortal City.
You have to go to the nearest market to pay the Fairy Valley, buy some supplies needed for the winter, and then come back and give Huwa a ride.
The autumn wind was bleak that day, and there were many fallen leaves floating down along the way. The clothes Huwa was wearing and the clothes he carried in his bag were all made by Miss Ayuan. For some reason, Huwa felt like a wanderer traveling far away from home. This kind of
He had this feeling before, when he had to leave the wilderness and come to Bayuan.
But at that time, he was still young and did not have deep feelings. He was just a child who was at a loss when facing the unknown world. But today, Huwa has grown up and is famous in Bayuan. He has even reached the Seventh Realm. He is just
When I came to Cuizhen Village by accident, this feeling at this moment was inexplicably so strong.
Huwa glanced back from a distance, not intending to see Miss A Yuan, because according to A Yuan's usual temperament, he probably wouldn't go out of his way to say goodbye to anyone. As expected, A Yuan did not stand at the entrance of the village or the courtyard gate.
In front of her, Huwa was surprised to find her. Ayuan was standing on the hillside full of stamen flowers and looking at this place from a distance. Only Huwa could see clearly from such a distance.
At this glance, Huwa suddenly felt that there was spring in the autumn wind.
After arriving at the nearest market, a middle-aged man named Meng Guang had been waiting for Uncle Fan and had prepared two carriages. One of the carriages was used to transport people to the Immortal Valley, while the other carriage
It contains other things dedicated to Chiwangqiu. Among the villages in this area, only Cuizhen Village has planted Immortal Valley. Today, people from six villages will gather here and then set off to participate in the pilgrimage to the Immortal Palace.
The market itself is also a large-scale village. Meng Guang is not a disciple of Chiwangqiu. He is the patriarch of this village and helps Chiwangqiu. Fan Bo introduced Huwa to Meng Guang. Meng Guang’s attitude towards Fan Bo
He was very polite and asked with a smile: "Why did your village change its people this year? In the past few years, wasn't it the young man named Hongyuan?"
Fan Bo replied: "Hongyuan has joined the army and left. This child's name is Huwa, and he is the most suitable candidate for Cuizhen Village now."
Meng Guang patted Huwa on the shoulder and said, "It's your blessing that Cuizhen Village can send you here. You must be careful and polite when you go. You must not offend the immortal family on Chiwang Hill, and you must pay attention to a safe journey."
Huwa lowered his head and saluted, saying nothing, acting like a young man from the village who had seen such a big world for the first time. After Fanbo handed Huwa and the Immortal Valley to Meng Guang, he received another three thousand from Meng Guang.
Jinmaigu - this was a reward from Chiwangqiu. Then he borrowed a few cars to load the things, and then left with the clan members. Only Huwa was left alone. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, novels
