"A long time ago, it is said that a salesman from out of town accidentally broke into Heqing Village one day and found the green water and green mountains here. He immediately begged the village chief to stay here for a while. The villagers in Heqing Village had never seen outsiders. , he agreed and invited the salesman to his home in turn. "

"One night, the salesman drank too much at someone else's house. For some reason, he ended up on the mountain behind the village. It happened that there was a girl who was wasting time collecting medicine on the mountain that night. The two fell in love. After going back and forth and flirting with each other, the salesman and the girl would meet each other on the back mountain every night. "

"But the good times did not last long. The salesman was not from Heqing Village, and there was no banquet in the world that lasted forever. Just when the girl was about to formally introduce the salesman to her elders, he ran away in the dark and windy night. After that, there were everywhere on the mountain. They were all wild beasts, and without any locals to lead the way, the salesman died tragically in the mouths of wild beasts."

"But the girl was so sad that she ran to the place where the two had a tryst on the back mountain every day to wash her face with tears. The tears gathered and turned into a lake - this is the origin of Yawei Lake."

Xiaomi walked ahead and introduced Yawei Lake to Shen Xia.

The lake is not big, only about 1 acre (666 square meters). However, the lake is surrounded by trees, and the source of the lake cannot be found at all. The sunlight shines on the lake through the dense branches and leaves, coating Yawei Lake with a layer of colorful light.

Xiaomi took the lead to walk on the plank bridge that crossed the entire Yawei Lake. As he walked, he joked to himself: "I think this is a story made up by the villagers to prevent us from contacting people outside. I just I don’t believe it. Sister Shen! Can you tell me what it’s like outside? "

Shen Xia smiled and followed Xiaomi onto the wooden bridge. The water level gets higher as you walk toward the center of the lake. The wooden bridge in front is almost hidden into the lake. Xiaomi is wearing straw sandals, so she is not afraid of getting wet. Naturally, the water could not soak Shen Xia's shoes and socks.

"Outside? What's different outside? Aren't they all covered with mountains, woods, grass, and flowers? In my opinion, it's not as nice as Heqing Village. There's also Yawei Lake here, and there's such a story attached to it. There is none outside." Shen Xia replied with a smile.

Xiaomi's words were stuck in Shen Xia's throat, and she said with a pinched neck, "I don't believe it. Sister Shen, you are just as good at lying as the village chief and others."

"Why did I lie to you?" Shen Xia had already reached the middle of Yasu Lake, but she was not walking on the wooden bridge at all, but on the lake.

"Xiaomi, since you told me a story, how about I give you a story too?" Shen Xia suddenly said.

Xiaomi had never seen someone like Shen Xia, and she didn't know how to react for a moment, so she could only nod.

"Once upon a time, there was a traveler. When she passed a certain place, she found that it was extremely prosperous with singing and dancing. She walked in out of curiosity, and found that everyone inside was very enthusiastic and invited the traveler to stay overnight."

"The traveler couldn't refuse his kindness, so he agreed. However, in the middle of the night, after the traveler got extremely drunk, the locals all turned against him, stripped him clean, and even carried him to the sacrificial platform, saying What they hate most is outsiders. Who would have thought that when they wanted to set fire to the travelers, the travelers on the stage turned into monkeys, and the things they had collected from the travelers turned into stones. "

"It turns out that the travelers have long discovered that they have evil intentions, and these people are not people at all, but are played by monkeys. The monkeys think that there is no flaw in imitating humans when they put on clothes and makeup, but they don't know that they are exposed There are too many tricks, and the greedy light in their eyes cannot be concealed. "

"In the end, of course the travelers killed all the monkeys. It was another day of doing good deeds and accumulating virtue." Speaking of monkeys, Shen Xia thought of a person and suddenly became a little distracted.

Shen Xia said it calmly, but Xiaomi on the side was frightened. She didn't dare to raise her head when she said "the travelers killed all the monkeys".

"Xiaomi, what do you think of the story I told?" Shen Xia asked again at this time.

Why hasn't the mechanism started yet? Xiaomi stared at Shen Xia's feet. She shouldn't have, she was clearly standing at the trigger point.

"Oh? Xiaomi, why don't you answer me? I don't like disobedient children." Shen Xia took a few steps forward, and there were no ripples on the lake.

"Or...are you waiting for the mechanism at the bottom of the lake to be triggered?" Shen Xia asked with a smile.

Xiaomi secretly thought something was wrong, turned around and wanted to run away, but he was no match for Shen Xia. Before he could run far, he was tied up by ropes formed by the lake and thrown in front of Shen Xia.

"Take me to Miss Zhuzi, and I can consider saving your life." Shen Xia looked down at Xiaomi lying on the lake.

"What bead girl? Sister Shen, what are you kidding again? Why do you want to tie me up all of a sudden? Did I offend you in some way? Sister Shen, please have a lot of money and don't argue with me." Xiaomi was lying on the lake, The lake surface suddenly became as hard as stone ground. I had never encountered this situation before.

Shen Xia was too lazy to continue playing tricks with Xiaomi. She waved her hand and the rope lifted Xiaomi high. Then suddenly it was released. Xiaomi fell straight into the lake like a stone. Before Xiaomi could find herself in the lake, The rhythm of the body was lifted high by the rope again, and then released, lifted again, and released again.

After repeating this several times, Xiaomi was choked by the water and couldn't open her eyes. Shen Xia stopped: "Xiaomi, I will give you one last chance. You can either tell me about Miss Zhuzi, which is what the story you told me said. Where is that girl? Or you have to watch me kill everyone in Heqing Village. Of course, you will be the one killed in the end."

Xiaomi was breathing heavily to balance her body. After listening to Shen Xia's words, she wished that she should have passed out just after being in the water. After hesitating for a long time, Nono said: "Okay... I will take you to find Aunt Zhu."

Shen Xia raised her eyebrows and said, "Can't you just be so obedient earlier?" Don't bother with this.

Even so, Shen Xia still did not put Xiaomi down, but hung it on the upper right side of Shen Xia to act as a navigator.

"Turn right at the intersection ahead, then count five apple trees, continue to turn right at the fifth apple tree, and then walk forward along the path, and you will see Aunt Zhu's residence."

Shen Xia followed Xiaomi navigation around and around, and finally saw the legendary bead.

Zhuzi is a little chubby, with black hair tied up high. He is wearing emerald green clothes and is drying medicinal materials outside. Since Zhuzi's back was facing Shen Xia and Xiaomi, Shen Xia couldn't see her face clearly, but just by looking at her back, she knew she was a sunny girl.

"Bead Girl."

"Aunt Zhu."
