Chapter 207: The Tomb of the Ancient Capital
It's winter, but I haven't seen much snow.
Originally, the more you go north, the easier it is to see snow. What’s interesting is that the winter in Shanghai is high and airy, but in Hangzhou, there is a little snow. The snowflakes fall in this paradise-like city, and the decoration is even more white and charming.
Mo Fan also understands why Xinxia came here. It is different from the country boy who is only thinking of going to the big city. What she wants is just this kind of tranquility and beauty. One mountain, one water, one place. A bridge, a city.
Xinxia's school is also very close to the West Lake, Mo Fan didn't rush to pick her up when she arrived in Hangzhou, and took her for a stroll with great interest.
Slowly walking through the long Su Causeway, there are willows and willows on both sides, and further away are sparkling mountains, and further away are scattered mountains, with peaks, temples, and pavilions, and on the other side is a forest of high-rise buildings, reflecting in the lake.
After crossing the Su Causeway and arriving at the Leifeng Pagoda scenic spot, Mo Fan looked up at the new tower and the old site, and was thinking about something when a man who looked like a local was beside him and said mysteriously: "Brother, come here for the first time. Hehe, the one you saw is the base of the former site of Leifeng Pagoda. I heard from the old man that a white snake was dug out here!"
"White Snake, how big is it?" Mo Fan asked with interest.
"It must be so thick." As he said that, the dark-faced local made a gesture of hugging.
"So big???" Mo Fan was also taken aback.
A snake as big as Nima is a demon, okay?
"Isn't it? At that time, no one could kill it. In the end, a certain master at that time almost exhausted his life force and sealed it..." The locals looked around, as if they were talking about some big secret.
"I can't even kill him, so awesome, where is the final seal?" Mo Fan asked along the way.
"Well, it may be inside the New Leifeng Pagoda, or it may be under the Broken Bridge, it may be in the Three Pools Reflecting the Moon, or it may be near the Bai Causeway. You see, I have a guidebook here, which not only contains the introduction of this legend, There are also guides for other scenic spots, and they sell for five yuan. I saw that my brother is a person who likes to explore and seek the truth. Seeing that you may be a destined person, I will sell you one for four yuan. said the swarthy native.
"Four dollars, it's quite cheap. But, big brother, I don't think the story you said about this big snake is particularly attractive. If you say that this big snake is a human being, it turns into a woman who looks like a fairy , and then met a son on the Broken Bridge, the two were lingering, and finally a certain master couldn't see him, and sealed the female snake spirit under the Leifeng Pagoda... Print out the booklet of this story,
Ask someone to draw some beautiful bubbling pictures. Many girls and young people will buy them. I will sell you the copyright of this story at a lower price for 9 yuan because of your predestined relationship with you! "Mo Fan raised his eyebrows and said.
The dark-skinned local man was stunned for a moment, and felt that what the young man said was quite reasonable. The question is, why do you have to pay for it yourself when you sell things yourself?
Xinxia, who was sitting in a wheelchair, couldn't stop laughing when she heard Mo Fan and the man selling maps talking serious nonsense.
Flickering back and forth, in the end, neither of them sold anything and ended hastily.
After seeing the person selling the map leave, Mo Fan continued to push Xinxia around the tower, and said, "This person has no common sense, he has never heard of the legend of the new white lady."
"I haven't heard of it either." Xinxia said.
"Oh, isn't it here? I thought the history here is completely consistent, and this kind of myth and legend should be the same." Mo Fan was a little surprised.
"I don't understand what you said?" Xinxia said with a confused face.
"Didn't I tell you that I'm a man from another world, where people don't learn magic. Although there are Qin, Sui, and Tang dynasties there, it seems that because animals become demons, Some fairy tales are inconsistent," Mo Fan said.
Xinxia couldn't help muttering: "I'm not a child anymore, how could I believe your words."
"Even you don't believe me, it seems that I will never try to prove that I am an alien." Mo Fan said with a wry smile.
"But you are still you." Xinxia said.
Mo Fan was slightly stunned. Originally, he just wanted to use this method to laugh at himself, but suddenly Xinxia's words made Mo Fan think deeply and feel relieved.
Seeing that Mo Fan fell silent, Xinxia thought she had said something wrong, and changed the topic in a low voice: "Brother Mo Fan, one of my history teachers said that we people in Bo City are very special."
"How to say?" Mo Fan asked.
"Do you remember the Holy Spring? It has a very long history, dating back to more than 200 AD." Xinxia said.
"That's right. After nearly two thousand years, there must have been many stories surrounding this holy spring... Then why do you say that the people in Bo City are special?" Mo Fan said.
"The teacher said that we people in Bo City may actually be the guardians of the Holy Earth Spring. Bo City was just a small village in the past. Over time, the guardians continued to reproduce, turning a village into a town, and after many years, the town became a city. The entry of outsiders, the change of ownership of the city, the overthrow of the feudal society... Bo City It has become what it is now, and the so-called guardians have already disappeared in these long years, or, the entire Bo City is a guardian..." Xinxia said seriously.
Mo Fan listened attentively, and couldn't help but think of those people from the Black Vatican.
Those Black Vatican are obviously destroying Bo City with some kind of purpose. Could it be that the Bo City disaster is related to this so-called guardian history? ?
However, this probably happened two thousand years ago. Is it really that important whether the guardian is not the guardian?
Their goal is the Holy Spring? ?
The holy spring of the earth is in my hands now, so the things that the people of the Black Vatican want are actually held by me all the time?
I rely on, that itself is not very dangerous.
A beast like the Black Vatican can do anything, the massacre of a city, and the days of Scarlet Alert are still vivid in Mo Fan's memory.
"Did your history teacher say anything else?" Mo Fan asked.
"He also speculated based on some historical records. He said that if he wanted to know the truth, he might have to find it in a tomb. However, the undead creatures in that tomb were quite terrifying. Up to now, no magician has dared to step into that mysterious tomb. "Xin Xia said.
"Tomb, what tomb?" Mo Fan continued to ask.
"There is a mausoleum in the ancient capital, which is the most famous place of the dead in our country. Brother Mo Fan, don't you usually listen carefully in class?"
