Chapter 30 Ancestral Cave
Wang Yuandan stood up in pain, wanted to explain but didn't know how to speak, his face was flushed with embarrassment.The priest came here, she smiled and asked Anu, "Anu, how do you feel now?"

"Grandma, I'm much better, but I don't have the strength." Anu said softly.

"Just wake up. Of course you don't have the energy after sleeping for two days. I'll cook some porridge for you later, and you'll recover tomorrow after eating it!" The priest said while helping Anu to wrap the quilt Cover it.

"Qingshan, take care of Anu first. Pour some warm water for her. Brother Wang, come out with me first!" Wang Yuan responded and followed the priest out of the back room.The priest asked Wang Yuan to sit down and drink water, and went to prepare porridge for Anu himself.After a while, the priest brought a bowl of porridge into the back room and handed it to Qingshan to feed it to Anu.

The priest watched Qingshan feed Anu a few mouthfuls, then turned around and came out to greet Wang Yuan. "Brother Wang, I really troubled you this time! Without you, Anu, this child would have suffered a lot."

"Master Priest, just call me Xiao Yuan. This is all a trivial effort and nothing worth mentioning."

"Okay then, I'll call you A Yuan! I heard from Qingshan that you are looking for cloud jellyfish, right?"

"That's right, sir, do you know where there are cloud jellyfish?"

"Hey~ Speaking of which, I'm the only one in this village who knows its origin. If you don't mind my nagging, I'll tell you about the origin of this cloud jellyfish!"

"Okay, please tell me." Wang Yuan put down the tea, straightened his body, and put on a posture of listening attentively.

"Then I'll tell you something. According to the records of the sacrificial rites of the past dynasties, as early as in ancient times, this place was originally a vast ocean. Later, a fairy used fairy magic to raise the land under the sea, so a high mountain appeared. The fairy was on this mountain He chose a place to build a cave and lived in it. Later, he planted many trees on the mountain, and adopted many mortals and animals, these mortals are the ancestors of our Miao people." The priest paused here, and He picked up the cup and took a sip of tea to moisten his throat and continued. "At the beginning, the mortals were full of reverence for the immortals, and they dared not go to the cave where the immortals lived. However, after a few generations, they found that the immortals had not appeared for a long time, so the priests at that time boldly went to the mountains where the immortals lived. When he got there, he found that the immortal had already left, and nothing was left behind. He found a small water pool in the cave where the immortal lived. The pool of water is named Immortal Water. The cave has also become a forbidden place guarded by generations of Miao people. As time goes by, generations of Miao people keep guarding the legend of Immortal Water. However, the Immortal Water has already existed many years ago No more, because the pool is dry. A Miao priest found some white crystals at the bottom of the pool. He took a small piece and put it in a water tank at home. Unexpectedly, the water in the tank became sweet. Delicious, a sip can make people forget their fatigue, just like the fairy water in the legend. You will know it here, that’s right, the priest named this spar called cloud jellyfish. And that priest is my grandfather .”

"So do you still have cloud jellyfish?"

"Back then, my grandfather collected all the cloud jellyfish he could find, and he left two pieces and threw the rest into the upper reaches of the Kongque River. He said that the Miao people all over the world could drink the fairy water. And The two pieces he left behind disappeared after his death. So even today, many Miao people don’t remember cloud jellyfish and fairy water.”

"Then do you know where to find cloud jellyfish?"

"Let Qingshan take you to the Ancestral Cave to have a look, it's the fairy's cave. It's on a cliff. Go there and look for it!" The priest stood up after speaking, and walked to the inner room.Wang Yuan was left sitting there, thinking about what the priest said just now.After a while, Qingshan came out from inside.

"Brother Wang, let's go. You stay at my house tonight!"

"Is your sister all right?"

"Anu drank porridge and fell asleep. The priest said that she would recover tomorrow! By the way, did the priest tell you where to find the cloud jellyfish?"

"I told you, she asked you to take me to the ancestral cave!" Wang Yuan replied casually.

"What! Go to the Ancestor Cave! That's serious. Let's go home first and let me ask my father!" Qingshan was confused.

"Brother Qingshan, can't we go to Zudong?" Wang Yuan asked.

"Brother Wang, you misunderstood. You can go to the Ancestral Cave, but that mountain is not easy to climb. It is surrounded by cliffs, and we can only climb up with rope tools."

"Do you need rock climbing? I think I was also a rock climbing enthusiast in my previous life. This time I have the opportunity to show my talents!" Wang Yuan followed Qingshan to his house, "By the way, Brother Qingshan, do you have a village owner in your Miao Village?"

"Yes! My father is the owner of the village!"

"Hey! I really didn't see it. You are still the second generation of officials! Hahaha! Should I call you Shaozhaizhu!" Wang Yuan joked.

"We don't like to be called Master Shaozhai here, you should just call me by my name!" The two walked and chatted and soon returned to Qingshan's house. Qingshan told his parents the news that Anu was healed by Wang Yuan, and the two were very happy , thanking Wang Yuan persistently, which made Wang Yuan feel ashamed himself.

Qingshan gave Wang Yuan his room, and he lived in Anu's room. "Brother Wang, go to bed early, we have to get up early tomorrow, or we won't be able to make it back at night!"

"Okay, brother Qingshan, I'm going to sleep now." Wang Yuan said and closed the door.

"The inn, how is the girl and Susu?"

"Slave, don't worry, I left a letter on your desk. They are all fine now, so you don't have to worry about them."

"That's good!" Wang Yuan said, posing in the room, picked up the "Changchun Gong" and entered the state of meditation.
