Mountain ghost is not a wild ghost or ghost in the mountains, but refers to a certain female mountain god in ancient times. She is also known to the world because of her beautiful appearance, stunning beauty and ethereal appearance.
However, as time goes by, this term is no longer known and understood by the public. Only some remote places in the mountains still retain the ancient heritage and still call it this.
The newlyweds looked at the girl curiously. Although they had never seen the legendary mountain goddess in ancient times, the girl's temperament was indeed very similar to the legend.
Fortunately, after Bai Qiu explained for a while, the two of them gradually gave up their previous conjectures.
"It seems that this young lady may have been sleeping in the realm of Taoyuan a long time ago. It was only when the changes in the world in recent years broke the silence that she gradually woke up." One of the Xi Niang put forward her own conjecture.
"My husband and I have also grown up in this mountain. In the past ten years or so, we have never seen any of our aristocratic children come here to travel with us. I'm afraid we can't provide any useful clues." The groom beside him also shook his head slightly.
Although the two have just gotten married, they have known each other since childhood and are relatively familiar with each other. These are the only families in the nearby cottage villages. After spending decades together, everyone knows each other very well. If there are strangers coming, they will basically know about them.
"Thank you two for your explanation. Actually, you don't have to worry too much about me." The girl shook her head slightly. After she woke up, she had begun to think of past deeds in her sleep for the past two days. Although it was only part of it, it was not like at the beginning.
So panicked.
As long as you give it time, complete recovery is not a problem, but you will occasionally feel a little anxious and missing.
The newlyweds looked at the young girl under the candlelight. Her beautiful face showed a bit of peace and serenity. They really didn't want to look timid and panicked, and they secretly praised her.
"Then we don't have to worry too much about inquiring. If you are not in a hurry, you can stay here for a few days. When the merchants come, it will be much safer for you to go out with them. Otherwise, if you go alone, you will be poisoned by snakes and insects along the way.
Ze, monster attacks are always unsettling."
The girl had a brief chat with Yu Baichou and nodded.
"Then I won't bother you." She stood up, folded her hands in front of her, and bowed slightly.
I am away from home and I have no one, so it is indeed a blessing to be taken in and entertained by others with kindness.
"It doesn't matter, I'll go and see if the rooms are clean first. Just because of the wedding, we have recently freed up a few guest rooms." After saying that, the hostess opened the door and went out.
Unlike matchmakers outside the mountains who say parents make a marriage contract, the Yeyu clan in the mountains still retains the simple tradition of free love. The two gradually informed their parents after falling in love naturally. Before getting married, the woman
I have been to the groom's house several times, so I am no stranger to her. Now that the wedding is complete, she has become the new hostess.
After dark, most of the guests who came to celebrate went home, but a few uncles and cousins who were particularly close would stay and stay with them for the night.
After waiting for a while, the hostess also walked into the room again and waved to the girl.
"The room is ready. It's on the Qionglou next door. Come with me."
Qionglou is a local building made of stacked stones, shaped like a square tower, with a small window around each floor that allows you to see outside.
The hostess held an orange lamp to lead the way, and then climbed up the wooden ladder.
"I haven't asked your name yet? My name is Bai Zao." She suddenly remembered something and then turned her head. The red and white headdress on her head still looked very beautiful in the candlelight.
"As for the name, it seems to be Lancier. My memory is a little fuzzy." The girl replied. In fact, she had already remembered her full name, which was Luo Lancier, but now that Luo is the royal surname, she couldn't say it directly.
"It's a very nice name, with a strange rhythm." The bride smiled slightly. Although she was not a stunning beauty, her appearance was extremely rare in the nearby cottage villages.
"We Ye Yu don't have much contact with the outside world, and we don't have that much etiquette, so if you come to me for a few days here and have something to do, just call me Bai Zao."
"Okay, thank you Sister Bai." The girl nodded obediently.
Different from the world in my memory where lights were everywhere, in this ancient and mysterious world, because there were no lights, the whole world would be extremely dark at night.
In the secluded mountains and forests, there is no moonlight. It can be said that you can't see anything at all. Faced with such endless darkness, mountain residents rarely go out at night. Even if they have to go into the mountains, they usually stay in a group of people.
Holding torches to embolden each other.
The lantern in Bai Zao's hand swayed in the dark night, dividing the stairs and figure into two parts, dark and bright. As the position of the lantern changed, some places entered the darkness, while other places were illuminated and exposed.
Parts I haven't seen before.
Sometimes there is a person very close in front of you, even if you can hold her hand, but once the light turns away and does not shine on the face, when you look up, you can only see a pair of vague black eyes, and the entire face cannot be seen.
Missing.
Scenes like this often scare children, afraid of the unknown and strange things in the dark.
However, what surprised Bai Zao was that even in such a dark environment, the girl still had a calm face, light steps, and no hesitation, as if she was walking on a flat road.
Perhaps, this person might really be the reincarnation of the mountain goddess with an extraordinary origin. Such thoughts came to her mind, and she continued walking forward.
There have been various kinds of immortals and beasts in this world since ancient times, with humans and gods living together. It would not be a surprise if we really encountered them.
After turning the corner of the stairs again, Bai Zao stopped with a light, took off the hanging door lock, pushed the door leaf, and entered the room with Lorraine Hill behind him.
After entering the room, she first lit the oil lamp candlestick in the room, letting soft light fill the room, and then turned around to introduce.
"This is in the west corner of the fourth floor. It's relatively quiet. Let's sleep here today."
The girl briefly looked around and took a look at the room. There was a wooden bed placed against the wall. It was covered with a blue bedding and had local indigo printing on it. It looked a bit rustic and beautiful.
In addition, there is a red lacquered dressing table with a bronze mirror on it next to the wooden bed.
"The upper floor is the attic where sundries are stored, and the lower floor is my sister-in-law's room. She will probably sleep late tonight because she will have a night watch with her sisters."
"If anything happens, you can come downstairs and find me in the yard. There will be people in the yard all night today." After Bai Zao explained, he left a lantern and waved downstairs.
After Bai Zao left, Lorraine Hill sat on the edge of the bed and carefully looked at the ceiling above his head and everything around him.
The bottom floor of this kind of local building is generally not occupied by people. It is used for tying livestock or stacking fodder and firewood. Only the second and third floors are occupied by people. The top floor is usually used for storing uncommon sundries. The entire building is made of stones.
It is in the shape of a tower. From the outside, it looks like earth and rocks. It is very simple. However, the inside is much more exquisite, and there is no shortage of some daily utensils.
After walking back and forth in the house for a few steps, the girl came to the window and looked out the dark window.
Everything in the field of vision is almost completely dark. The hills and world in the distance can only be seen as extremely vague curves in the starlight above. The world in the mountains is a darkness that sucks everything in, making people feel a sense of darkness unconsciously.
A kind of fear.
The mountains at night are still so scary. The girl whispered, remembering the picture that came to her mind. It seemed that she was like this when she was a child. She stood in front of the window and looked at the dark mountains, and sometimes she would be so scared that she would have nightmares.
Finally, I remembered something. I had the experience of living in the mountains when I was a child in my previous life.
Based on this calculation, is this her third life? She closed the window and sat back on the bed. She looked at the warm and flickering candlelight and lamented the evanescence and changes of time.
