There is a quiet and peaceful Taoyuan village at the foot of Qingyan Mountain, which is shrouded in mist and resembles a fairyland. The village is not big, and dozens of families are scattered among the mountains and rivers. They have lived by farming for generations, and their lives are simple and satisfying. There is an ancient ginkgo tree at the head of the village. Its trunk is so thick that it needs three or four people to hug it, and it is flourishing. It is said that it has a thousand years old. The villagers regard it as a tree of the town and village and are in awe of it.
There is a boy named Afu in the village, who is kind, clever and intelligent, and especially likes to shuttle between the mountains and forests. His parents died early, and he grew up with the help of his neighbors, and he has deep feelings for this landscape that raised him. This spring, Ah Fu went to the mountain to collect herbs as usual, and prepared to exchange some money to subsidize his family. When he passed by a hidden mountain valley, he suddenly smelled a strange fragrance of flowers, which was sweet and elegant, but with a mysterious force, which attracted him to find fragrance involuntarily.
Deep in the ravine, Ah Fu was stunned. I saw a cluster of strange flowers that I had never seen before swaying gently in the wind. The petals were pale pink, and the edge was smudged with a soft layer of Phnom Penh. The stamens flashed like stars, and there seemed to be a glimmer of light among the flowers, which was obviously extraordinary. Alfred was filled with joy and approached carefully, trying to see more clearly. Just as his fingers were about to touch the petals, a soft voice sounded in his ear: "Don't pick me, ok?"
Alfred shivered with fear and looked around, but there was no one there. He asked in a trembling voice, "Who is it? Who is talking? " The voice rang again, as if floating out of a flower: "It's me, I'm the spirit in this flower, and my name is Linger. Thanks to the aura of heaven and earth, I have been practicing here for many years, and it is a fate to meet you today. " Ah Fu stared at the flower and stammered, "You … are you really a flower fairy? I am not dreaming? " Linger smiled gently, and the laughter was as sweet as a silver bell: "Of course you didn't dream. Thank you for being merciful and not picking me."
Ah Fu soon came to his senses, with a bright smile on his face: "There are really flower elves in this world! Linger, you are so beautiful, how can I choose you? Don't worry, I will protect you from others. " Linger's heart warmed up and said, "Ah Fu, you are a kind child. If you have any difficulties in the future, you can come here to find me."
Since then, Ah Fu often secretly went up the mountain to visit Linger, to share the interesting things in the village with her, or to talk about his troubles. Linger will also use some small spells to change sweet wild fruits for Ah Fu, or help him find precious herbs. The friendship between the two people is getting deeper and deeper. Before you know it, Ah Fu has grown into a handsome and tall young man, and Shine is becoming more and more charming and moving, but her figure is still trapped in the flowers and she can't walk freely.
However, the calm days were finally broken. The place where Taoyuan Village is located was taken a fancy to by a greedy county official. He heard that there are many rare treasures in Qingyan Mountain, so he wanted to take this place for himself, develop mines and make huge profits. For a time, people in the village were worried, and the villagers were worried, but they were unable to resist. Alfred was worried when he learned about this. He ran to the mountain at the first time and told Linger about it.
Linger Xiumei frowned and looked worried: "What can I do? Once the mountain is dug, the aura of this Qingyan Mountain will be destroyed, not only will our practice be blocked, but the villagers will also lose their homes. Ah Fu, we must find a way to stop it. " Ah Fu clenched his fist and his eyes were firm: "Linger, don't worry, even if I fight for this life, I won't let the county magistrate succeed." It's just that the county magistrate is guarded by many officials, and we are weak. Where should we start? " Linger pondered for a moment and said, "I heard that there is a tree fairy in the depths of Qingyan Mountain. He has great powers and has been guarding this mountain for hundreds of years. If we can get his help, there may be a turn for the better. It's just that the tree fairy lives in seclusion all the year round, and it's not easy to find him. "
Ah Fu didn't hesitate: "No matter how difficult it is, I will try. For the village, for you, I am not afraid. " Linger was deeply moved. She took out a crystal-clear petal from the stamen and handed it to Ah Fu: "Take this petal, it contains my spiritual power, and it may help you at a critical moment. Go north along the mountain path, through the misty forest, and you can reach the residence of Shuxian. But there are many dangers on the way, so you must be careful. " Ah Fu took the petals, carefully put them away, said goodbye to Linger, and resolutely embarked on a journey to find the tree fairy.
Along the way, Ah Fu encountered many difficulties. The foggy forest is filled with thick fog. If you can't see your fingers, you will lose your way if you are not careful. Strange noises were heard from time to time in the forest, which was creepy. Ah Fu clutched the herb picking hoe in his hand and groped forward step by step with tenacious will and keen intuition. Suddenly, a huge panther jumped out of the shadows and ran towards him. Alfred was terrified, but thinking of the village behind him and Shine, he summoned up his courage and waved a hoe to deal with the panther. After several rounds, Ah Fu's physical strength gradually faded, and he also had several scratches on his body. At a critical moment, he remembered the petals that Shine gave him, and quickly took them out. The petals instantly burst into a bright light, and the panther seemed to be afraid of this light. With a whimper, he turned and fled into the forest.
After hardships, Ah Fu finally walked out of the misty forest, and a quiet valley appeared in front of him. In the middle of the valley, a giant tree rose from the ground, its trunk was engraved with mysterious runes, its branches stretched like dragons, and its leaves shone like jade. Alfred's heart moved and he knew that he had found the residence of the tree fairy. He quickly stepped forward, came to the tree, and bowed down respectfully: "Please show up, save Taoyuan Village, and save Qingyan Mountain!"
For a long time, a deep and dignified voice came from the tree: "Why did you come, young man?" Ah Fu raised his head and told the story of the county magistrate's desire to start a mountain and dig a mine in detail. His words were sincere and his eyes were full of anxiety and expectation. The tree fairy was silent for a moment and said, "I already know this. The county magistrate is greedy. If he doesn't stop it, it will lead to great disaster. It's just that although I am willing to help, I am bound by the rules of heaven and can't directly intervene in worldly affairs. " Hearing this, Ah Fu's heart cooled and tears swirled in his eyes: "Is there no other way?" Ask the tree fairy to point out the maze. "
Tree fairy sighed slightly: "there is one way, but it is too dangerous for you." There is a kind of fairy grass called Lingyun Grass on Qingyan Mountain, which embodies the aura of mountains and rivers. If it can be made into an elixir, people who take it will gain extraordinary strength, which is enough to compete with county officials. However, the Lingyun grass grows on the top of the mountain, surrounded by powerful forbidden guards, and often haunted by fierce beasts. For thousands of years, no one has succeeded in picking it. " A flash of determination flashed in Ah Fu's eyes: "Master Shu Xian, as long as I can save the village, I am not afraid of any danger. Please tell me how to find Lingyun grass. "
Seeing that Alfred had made up his mind, the tree fairy told him in detail how to find Lingyun grass. Alfred kept it in mind, kowtowed again and turned to climb to the top of the mountain. The mountain road became steeper and more rugged, the cold wind cut his face like a knife, and the thin air made it difficult for him to breathe. Halfway up the hill, a group of fierce vultures stared at him and roared down. Ah Fu dodged left and right, and used rocks to deal with vultures, adding several wounds to his body. I finally got rid of the vultures, but there was a bottomless canyon ahead, and there was only a rickety rattan bridge above the canyon. Ah Fu gritted his teeth, set foot on the rattan bridge and walked slowly step by step. The bridge shook violently, and several times he almost slipped and fell to the bottom.
Finally, Ah Fu came to the top of the mountain and under the cliff. Looking up, I saw that Lingyun grass grew in a narrow crevice, emitting a faint blue light, like a dream. But there is a strange black fog around, and there is a faint roar of fierce beasts. Ah Fu took a deep breath, holding a herb picking hoe, and approached carefully. Just as he was about to touch Lingyun grass, a three-headed python jumped out of the fog, and three of them spewed flames at the same time and came at him. Ah Fu couldn't escape, his arm was burned by the flame, and the pain came, but he just fought back and waved a hoe to fight with the python.
At the critical moment, Alfred remembered a few spells that Linger had taught him, which were the ancient art of bending the spirit of the Flower Elves. He murmured, and the petals in his hand shone brightly, which connected with him and turned into a shield, temporarily resisting the python's attack. Taking this opportunity, Ah Fu seized the opportunity, jumped hard, and reached for Lingyun Grass. In an instant, a powerful force poured into his body, and he felt full of power.
Ah Fu quickly went down the mountain with Lingyun grass and returned to the village. He found the old pharmacist in the village, and with the help of the pharmacist, he made Lingyun grass into Dan medicine. At this point, the county magistrate has entered Qingyan Mountain with a large number of troops and started to break ground. Afu swallowed Dan medicine, and suddenly his whole body shone with light and his strength exploded. He led the villagers to the construction site and confronted the magistrates.
Seeing that Ah Fu and others dared to resist, the county magistrate became angry from embarrassment and ordered the magistrates to start work. Alfred did not fear, and exerted his newly acquired divine power. With three fists and two feet, he knocked down the chief who rushed in front. Encouraged, the villagers picked up farm tools and fought side by side with Ah Fu. At that time, the dust on the construction site, shout ShaSheng blasting.
However, when the county magistrate saw that the situation was not good, he secretly offered an evil spell, which he bought from the black market at a high price and could summon the power of evil. In an instant, the sky was overcast with lightning and thunder, and a group of evil spirits gushed out of the ground and pounced on the villagers. Ah Fu was frightened to disgrace. Although he has the power to accumulate grass, he is somewhat powerless in the face of this strange evil thing.
At a critical moment, a brilliant light fell from the sky and Shine appeared. It turned out that she felt that Alfred was in trouble, and despite her own incomplete practice, she broke through the bondage of flowers and came to help. Shine and Ah Fu have the same heart, and they fight side by side, and Shine exerts the purification power of the flower elves to dispel evil spirits, while Ah Fu relies on divine power to resist the chief. With the tacit cooperation of the two people, the situation gradually turned around.
The county magistrate still didn't give up. He tried to put all his eggs in one basket and rushed to Ah Fu, trying to rob him of the remaining pills. Alfred was on guard, and joined hands with Shine to cast a powerful converging attack spell. The light flashed, and the county magistrate was shot out, and he fell heavily on the ground, spitting blood and losing his fighting capacity.
With the defeat of the county magistrate, the power of yin and evil dissipated, and the chief officers saw that the tide was gone, and they dropped their weapons and fled in various directions. Taoyuan village has been saved, and Qingyan Mountain has also restored its former tranquility.
After this battle, the feelings between Alfred and Linger became deeper and deeper. Under the witness of Shu Xian, the two married. Linger nourishes Qingyan Mountain with her spiritual power, making this land more vibrant; Afu led the villagers, guarded their homes and lived a happy life. The old ginkgo tree still stands at the head of the village, witnessing the changes of the years and telling the legendary story of flowers with spirits and trees with immortals.
Many years later, when children sat around the tree and listened to the old people telling this story, their eyes were full of longing and longing, as if the magical world was in front of them. The story of Afu and Linger, like a clear spring in the mountains, has been passed down from generation to generation in Taoyuan Village and never stops.
