247 The wind rises and the clouds roll around the universe and the first revelation
"This place is so beautiful that it's unreal." Wen Zhuoyi looked up at the sky, "Look, the sky inside is different from the sky outside."
Hua Jinglan looked along and saw that because it was surrounded by mountains, the sky she could see was extremely small, but it was extremely blue without any clouds.
After a while, Hua Jinglan realized that the temperature around her was even colder than outside. When she came in, she didn't feel like she was going up a mountain. The altitude here should be higher than outside.
I looked back at the house on the waterfall. There were shadows of people inside, and some women also passed through the path beside the waterfall. They should be the family of her aunt that Qiluo mentioned.
"There are only five families living here, and there are a total of 113 young women. According to what they said, Qiluo is the 100th one of the Hundred Flowers Beauties. The thirteen people born after her have no flower pictures on them." Chunyu
Yan said: "If these flowers are really tattooed, Master Zhai should know something."
Hua Jinglan narrowed her eyes, "If you ask directly, there will be no answer. Let's go find it ourselves."
As she spoke, she turned around and said: "The trees here are extremely lush. The four of you go together separately and follow the mountain road to the top of the mountain, but don't collide with the people here."
"Yes, sir!"
"Chun Yushang and Jin'er are staying here, and Jiaoyue and Izumo are also staying here. Xuanji and Beifeng are protecting them. Yu Chiyue is following me." After Hua Jinglan finished dividing the work, Chun Yuyan said: "Master Zhai is over there.
Give it to me, feel free to go."
Hua Jinglan nodded, raised her hand, and everyone dispersed, while she and Yuchi Yue climbed up the mountain from the entrance wall.
"Lan'er, there's so much fog!" Yuchi Yue followed behind her, looking around excitedly, "The rocks here look weird too!"
It is a stone that has been eroded by the wind and has become dilapidated, with strange shapes and a large number.
Hua Jinglan brushed these stones and wiped the powder off her fingers. She was surprised. This was obviously a landform eroded by strong winds. Why did it appear in patches on the mountainside, incompatible with the surrounding lush trees? Could it have happened here before?
Strong crustal movement?
However, what kind of ferocious crustal movement could turn this area into a mountain without leaving any traces around it?
The deeper you go, the more strange you feel, and the faces of the people here are a bit too young. Could the rejuvenation be related to the terrain here?
The more she speculated, the more ridiculous Hua Jinglan felt that her idea was ridiculous. Perhaps the women in Loulan Kingdom were good at looking good, and they couldn't relate to these strange things anyway.
"Lan'er, come and see!" Yuchi Yue, who was walking in front, suddenly shouted.
Hua Jinglan hurriedly walked over and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Are these tiger footprints?" Yuchi Yue turned to look at her, "What a big footprint!"
Hua Jinglan was horrified, how could there be a tiger with footprints as big as a bucket?!
"No." She knelt down and took a closer look. The footprints were on the stone. The corners were damaged, but she could still see the whole thing. It was about a foot long and wide by visual inspection, and she could vaguely distinguish the marks made by sharp claws on the stone.
.
Yuchi Yue looked around and leaned closer to her, "Lan'er, there seems to be something in the woods!"
Hua Jinglan stood up and pulled him behind her, her sharp eyes fixed on the place where the slight sound came from in the forest, but out of the heavy fog, a graceful figure walked out, it was Qiao Lan who had just come out to pick them up!
Qiao Lan glanced at the rocks behind them, and said, "Mrs. Hua, lunch is ready, please come down the mountain!"
Hua Jinglan looked at the woman with a slight smile in front of her, and felt more and more incredible about this valley: What a light step!
After going down the mountain, I discovered that all the people who had gone out had been found and were sitting at the bamboo table set up on the lawn. The entire lawn was occupied, and more than a hundred fair-looking women surrounded them.
middle.
"Mrs. Hua, please take a seat." Mr. Zhai came forward. There were four men beside him. These five men should be the five families.
Hua Jinglan walked up to Chun Yuyan and sat down next to her. She looked at the other four men without any trace, and then returned her gaze to the food in front of her.
"In a land of mountains and plains, simple food and simple food, please don't find it objectionable to Mr. Hua and Mrs. Hua!" Mr. Zhai said with a smile as if he didn't notice anything strange at the dinner table.
"You're welcome, Mr. Zhai, please." Chunyu Yan responded.
After the meal, Hua Jinglan was about to say goodbye and go down the mountain, but Master Zhai kindly invited them to stay the night. After refusing several times, Chun Yuyan agreed.
Hua Jinglan was wondering where these hundreds of people lived. After passing the Qiaolan Waterfall, she discovered a small cave on one side. When she walked in, she discovered that there were stone houses scattered around. These stone houses seemed to be dug out of the mountain.
It seemed empty. The stone house was not small, and there were windows. When you opened the bed, you could see the bamboo house on the waterfall below. The reason why I didn't notice it just now was because the trees in the mountains were too lush and covered the windows.
"Please two good guys have a rest." After Qiao Lan said that, she left.
Hua Jinglan glanced around the stone house, then turned to look down the mountain, and couldn't help but say: "What a strange place."
"Everyone here is very young, except for those four men." Chun Yuyan muttered: "They have premature aging."
"Can people who can give birth to dozens of daughters avoid premature aging?" Hua Jinglan frowned and said: "But only four of them have premature aging. Mr. Zhai and his wife have no signs of aging at all. I'm afraid this is not the case.
Yan Youshu can be said in just four words."
Chunyu Yan suddenly smiled and said, "Is there a way to longevity?"
Hua Jinglan also laughed, "The fifth path has lived for almost two hundred years. Isn't that a long life? But I haven't seen anyone like them. There's no trace at all!"
"Indeed." Chunyu Yan touched his chin, "If there was a way to live long in the world, it would probably be coveted by those in power in various countries."
Hua Jinglan recalled the beast's palm print on the mountain. She had seen the Qilin beast in Tiannv City and could only be surprised if she encountered such a thing again, but the palm print was too big. If it were really a divine beast, its power would be so terrifying!
