Imperial Legend of the Ghosts
Chapter 2506: Anecdotes of the Old Country (eighth)
According to legend, in the ancient years before countless years, the world was not the situation in which the three ancient nations were divided by one side, but the small nations were standing, and they were conquering each other and fighting continuously. At that time, there was a small country with a population of just over a thousand on the banks of the Luanhe River—named "Blue Lotus Country".
People in this country do not like war, and they live in peace and quiet. The maintenance of the livelihood of the Blue Lotus Country, besides farming and fishing, is planting lotus flowers.
Every year when the various lotus flowers bloom, it is the time for the blue lotus nation to celebrate the festival. At that time, the water monsters who like all kinds of lotus and lotus seeds will quietly arrive at night. At first, the water beasts like to eat. The lotus seeds and tents are all careful not to damage the roots of any lotus.
Later, some careful residents discovered this. Everyone knows that the monsters in the river are extremely fierce and refuse to be good to others, but they have been honest in the Blue Lotus Country, which has touched everyone's minds. .
So while the Blue Lotus people celebrated the annual Lotus Harvest Festival, they stored a large number of lotus seeds and actively fed them to the beasts who came to ask for food. Sure enough, the beasts became more and more dependent on human feeding and gradually became blue. Pets of Lotus Nationals.
In order to repay the gift of Lanlian's nationals, the monsters often drove large schools of fish to the territory of Luohe River, so that people will have a good harvest. Within a century, Lanlian has become a well-known rich country in the world.
But the good times are not long, and the sheep full of meat will eventually attract the wolves, the poor soldiers of neighboring countries, the soldiers of the country, and the madness to commit crimes. They not only burned and plundered and killed the blue lotus nationals, but the king of the other party even returned Forced the blue lotus lord to give up his most beautiful little daughter.
Coincidentally, the princess is also called "Blue Lotus". She is kind-hearted and often uses royal wealth to help people in need. She is deeply loved by the people. When she hears that the enemy will force the princess to leave, the whole country will cry for a while. Fight each other with death.
However, Princess Lan Lian refused to cause her life to be tarnished because of her own affairs, and was not willing to be humiliated by the enemy, so the tenacious princess decided to use her death to fight against fate.
That day, the princess sat on a lotus-lined bamboo raft, lit a furnace of incense made with lotus seeds, and floated towards the end of the Luohe River.
At the same time, the unbelievable invaders led the masses into the kingdom of the Blue Lotus, and the people ... were ruthlessly slaughtered and none existed.
In a short time, the wind on the river surged, the bamboo raft overturned, the blue lotus princess smelt the jade, and sank to the bottom of the water. At that moment, the sky and the earth mourned and changed color, and thunder, lightning, and hail showers deterred the enemies of neighboring invaders. The monsters in the water within a hundred miles are angry!
These monsters roared into the riverbank with a scream of horror, madly biting the invaders of the neighboring countries until the corpse swept across the wild, and there was no one standing alive.
After several days of killings, the monsters in the water dived back to Luohe River and never appeared again.
Since then, the Blue Lotus and its neighbors have perished, but the remaining Blue Lotus nationals have thrived on the banks of the river and survived hard. They are the ancestors of the residents of Huiyang Town.
And the most important thing is that the "lotus incense incense" made by Princess Blue Lotus has also passed down. By selling this incense, Huiyang Town has really prospered for many years before it has the current situation.
"Guest ..." The shop owner said here, glanced at the drowsy Guan Heng, and continued to speak helplessly: "I told the story of the incense of lotus seeds ups and downs, now all I'm so tired that I can't help but praise you, can you give me some ideas? "
"Eh ?! Are you finished?" Guan Heng yawned at this time: "Sorry, boss, this story has been heard too much before, so now I'm used to ignore it, hehe, but you're really good."
"That's right," Guan Heng asked again. "You blow incense so hard. What good is it? Where can I get it?"
"As long as you smell the real lotus seed incense, you can calm down, eliminate fatigue, and prolong your life ..." The boss said here, and could not help but shake his head: "However, there is no blue lotus in town for long. Lotus seed incense sticks. "
Upon hearing this, Guan Heng frowned slightly and asked, "Why is this?" "That was because of a great change over a decade ago."
The boss explained at this moment: "Somehow, the blue water lotus raised in the homes of all the people in the town, and the wild blue water lotuses in the river all died, and none of them were left, like humans. Got a plague, so everyone calls it 'Lianwen.'
The boss said that he paused for a moment, so he continued to say, "Since the blue water lotus is gone, the best quality incense incense will naturally not be produced, and almost all incense production workshops are closed. The door, but there are some things that can be done in town, everyone has changed their careers, and only ... "
The owner of the shop just said here. A ragged old man suddenly came by the door. He bowed his back and hugged a little boy with a bamboo basket beside him. Although this child has no disability, it is a rabbit's lips. Compassion.
"Boss Zhu, do you want to incense today?"
The hump-backed old man said with a bit of pleading, "I, I have gone to seven or eight stores, and everyone said that I don't want it, but my family has been out of cooking for a few days, and I can only ask you with a thick face, and add some incense, As long as we can provide us with some subsistence rice, please, you do n’t eat the old, but the child ca n’t carry the hungry, cough cough ... ”
"Well ... Lao Gu, didn't I say you, wouldn't you change jobs then?"
At this time, boss Zhu looked at the embarrassment of the young and old, and couldn't help but sigh: "You Gu Gu, although there is the oldest incense workshop in Huiyang Town, but after the extinction of the blue water lotus, only ordinary lotus seeds are used. No one wants the incense made. "
"Without blue lotus seeds as materials, even the best craftsmanship is useless. See, the incense piled in my shop is from you, and it won't sell at all."
Seeing the embarrassment and distress on the other side, the boss Zhu continued to say, "Even if I am old Zhu, if you are kind again, you cannot always help you, just like you said. Hungry, in my opinion, your grandpa and grandson will quickly switch to another way of living, otherwise, they will starve to the street sooner or later. "
Guan Heng was indifferent at this time, and he whispered to boss Zhu: "Hey, say a few words, people are so pitiful, can't you help me?"
"I have been helping for several years, and it is difficult to care for the poor ..." Before Mr. Zhu finished, Guan Heng pulled out a gold shell and pushed it to the other side: "Go, tell him that the incense has been accepted I can't ask you how much you can sell in your store. Is this the head office? Also, don't say what I mean. "
When boss Zhu saw his eyes open, and he was also kind, he scooped up the goods and muttered, "Well, good-hearted people like you are really rare, so I'll just talk about it."
