Chapter 160

"I don't know why, the story of Wu Gang's conquest of laurel was always familiar to us when we were young... But today, it seems that there is always a different feeling."

Ye Tian said in a deep voice, Wang Baocai also heard about the osmanthus tree in that space, so he was also very surprised by it.

From all perspectives, these seem to be all connected together, and their current encounters and experiences seem to be destined, as if they have already had results in advance.

Li Fei couldn't understand seal script, and scratched his head: "Brother, why don't you read this version of the story again, the two of us... To be honest, we don't understand at all."

Ye Tian nodded, and opened his mouth to read:

"A long time ago, there was another town called Xianning. A plague broke out in this place, and people tried various folk remedies to no avail.

But the local doctors were helpless. In ancient times, there was no medical technology as it is now. Without the prescriptions given by the doctor, people could only try various folk remedies that they tinkered with, but no matter how they tried, it was useless. The plague eventually grew bigger and bigger, and the entire town was infected, and the people wailed and couldn't survive.

At the foot of Hangbang Mountain, a brave and filial young man named Wu Gang appeared.

His mother was also sick and bedridden, and the young man went up the mountain every day to gather medicine to save his mother.One day, when Guanyin came back from his east tour, he happened to pass by, and was deeply moved when he saw the young man picking herbs on the cliff.At night, I told him in a dream that there is a tree called sweet-scented osmanthus in the moon palace, also called sweet-scented osmanthus.Soaking the small golden flowers that bloom on the tree can cure this plague. There is a ladder on Guibang Mountain until August [-] to enter the Moon Palace to pick and hang.

This night happened to be the twelfth day of the eighth month, and there were three days before the mid-autumn festival on the fifteenth day of the eighth month. "

"Time waits for no one. After August [-]th, I missed the annual flowering of sweet-scented osmanthus, and I have to wait another year. But to get to the top of Hangbang Mountain, you have to cross seven deep streams and seven cliffs and cliffs. At least Seven days and seven nights. After making up his mind, Wu Gang went through untold hardships, and finally climbed to the top of Guibang Mountain on the night of August [-]th, and caught up with the ladder leading to the Moon Palace. Wu Gang followed the fragrance to the osmanthus tree, watching The golden sweet-scented osmanthus flowers all over the tree were very happy. He picked them desperately, always wanting to pick more to go back to save his mother and fellow villagers.

But he couldn't pick too many, so he thought of a way.He shook the sweet-scented osmanthus tree, causing the sweet-scented osmanthus to fall into the river at the foot of Hangbang Mountain.Suddenly, the river surface was fragrant, and the river water was dyed golden yellow.People drink this river water, all diseases are cured

.That night was the day when the gods of Tiangong gathered on the [-]th day of the eighth lunar month and enjoyed the full moon and ate mooncakes at the meeting.At this time, the fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus rushed to the sky, alarming the gods, so they sent messengers to investigate.The official sent an official to the Moon Palace to have a look, and saw that all the osmanthus flowers on the osmanthus tree in the Moon Palace were gone, and they all fell to the world, so they reported it to the Jade Emperor.

When the Jade Emperor heard this, he was furious, and sent heavenly soldiers and generals to arrest Wu Gang.

After Wu Gang was arrested, he told Jade Emperor everything that happened that night.

Because the things in the world seemed to have something to do with the Heavenly Palace, the Jade Emperor had no choice. On the contrary, he still admired Wu Gang, a young man.

Have courage and strength.

But Wu Gang violated the rules of heaven after all, so he must be punished.

The Jade Emperor first asked Wu Gang what he wanted, and Wu Gang said that he wanted to bring the sweet-scented osmanthus tree to the world to save the suffering.So the Jade Emperor thought of an idea, which could not only punish Wu Gang, but also agree to Wu Gang's request.He said that as long as you cut down the sweet-scented osmanthus, you can bring the planning tree to the world.

In such a process, the continuous scattering of osmanthus can also solve the problem.

So Wu Gang found a big ax and started to chop down, trying to quickly cut down the big tree.Unexpectedly, the Jade Emperor cast a spell, and every cut was long, so that Wu Gang had been chopping for thousands of years.

Seeing that the tree would not fall down, Wu Gang was eager to miss his hometown and mother, so he threw an osmanthus flower on the Guibang Mountain every Mid-Autumn Festival night to express his homesickness.Year after year, Guibang Mountain is covered with sweet-scented osmanthus, and the villagers use the sweet-scented osmanthus to make tea, and there is no more disaster in Xianning. "

After reading this story, the content under the slate has become blurred, and I can't see the content clearly. I don't know what kind of story will follow, but it stops abruptly here.

The story they had heard about Wu Gang cutting laurel was just that Wu Gang's wife had an affair with Emperor Yan's son, so Wu Gang killed him in a rage, and Emperor Yan sent him to the Moon Palace to cut trees.

But Wu Gang's wife was very upset and asked his three sons to turn into animals and go to the moon palace to protect her. This is Wu Gang who is familiar with Gui'er, and I don't know what kind of connection he has with Chang'e's moon palace. This is a myth. doubts.

But today they saw a brand new version in such a secret realm. Although this version is different from all the stories circulated outside, it is not out of the scope of mythology. It is indeed the story of Wu Gang's conquest of gui, and this People seem to be real in this story.

In other words, this Wu Gang is the real Wu Gang thousands of years ago and the myth has been passed down for so long, there will naturally be deviations and changes. Who has seen the real Jade Emperor?

"So it looks like there's a continuation to the story, and we don't know what the continuation is."

There was no way, the three of them could only shake their heads.

In the Moon Palace where they were just now, they saw that the laurel tree above the ground seemed to be the one mentioned in the fairy tale, but they didn’t know what was the difference between this laurel tree and the one mentioned in the story. Specific differences without knowing what they mean?

Wu Gang is no longer there, but the tree is here. This tree is in another world, and has no connection with the earth at all. This myth seems to have no basis.

Just like any myth they have heard, there is no science to prove it, even when the three of them come to see a little connection, it is difficult to make them happy, but in such a space , He also put false myths here, what's the point?

They can only believe.

Wu Gang is a well-known man who conquered laurel. Now a festival on earth is called the Mid-Autumn Festival, which is also closely related to this story. Many festivals are like this. They are started by a historical celebrity or historical allusion, just like Qu Yuan, because He only had the Dragon Boat Festival, but his story has been proven to be real, so why can't the Mid-Autumn Festival be real?

So this rough and simple story, now they can only regard it as a real thing, a thing in ancient times.

Whether it ever happened or not.
