While everyone was admiring the beauty of the sea, an old man came over.
"Young man, you are here to find the Holy Spirit Bead."
Liu Zhiheng and Xu Changqing looked at each other, wary, but did not show much expression, but asked: "Yes, old man, do you know where the Holy Spirit Bead is?"
The old man looked at them without answering, but touched his beard and said: "I didn't expect that there are still people in the world who can find the Five Spirit Pearls. This is simply a miracle."
Liu Zhiheng and the others didn't say anything, they just looked at the old man quietly.
The old man seemed to be aware of Liu Zhiheng's vigilance and smiled nonchalantly: "Since you want to find the Holy Spirit Bead, let me tell you a legend about Anxi Village."
When Jingtian heard this, he couldn't help but said: "Old man, we are here to find the Holy Spirit Bead, and we want to hear some stories."
Xu Changqing was still eager to save her daughter and was unwilling to give up any clues: "Old man, please tell me, we also want to hear this story."
The old man looked at Xu Changqing, nodded with satisfaction, and then led everyone towards Anxi Village. He said as he walked.
"A long, long time ago, we knew that seashells had sounds. Just put them to your ears and you could hear a man's beautiful singing voice."
Tang Xue heard this, picked up the shell in her hand, tried it, and found that there was no movement. She couldn't help but interrupted: "Why can't you hear anything now?"
The old man replied: "I can't hear it now. That's because the owner of the voice disappeared like the wind. According to legend, the man who sang was called Xifeng. Although he looked ugly, God gave him a good voice. His The voice is just like his name, like a gurgling stream or a breeze, refreshing people's hearts and not dissipating for a long time. "
The old man recalled: "Xifeng was the first to get up every day and wake up the villagers with his singing in the early morning. In order to let more people hear his voice, Xifeng learned to use shells to record his own voice. He only needed to pick up the shells and put them in his ears. By the way, you can hear the stream wind singing in your ears.”
"In ancient times, the lake and the sea were connected between heaven and earth. The shells that recorded the sound of the stream wind also floated along the sea water to the Tianhe River in the God Realm. The God Realm was peaceful, but also lonely, just like this calm and waveless lake. , For the goddess Shui Bi, picking up shells every day has become her most important thing. Listening to the voice of the man in the shell, Shui Bi began to feel yearning and expectation. She wanted to see this man. "
Speaking of this, they also walked to the old man's home. In the small courtyard, the old man put down his bamboo hat and let everyone sit wherever they liked, and then continued: "So Shuibi came to the world and wanted to see Xi Feng.
One night, Uncle Zhang's granddaughter had a fever. She came to Xifeng and wanted to hear him sing, even giving her shells. Xifeng didn't agree at first. He was afraid of his own appearance and scared Uncle Zhang's granddaughter. So Uncle Zhang made a A compromise was to ask Xifeng to sing for her outside the house. "
"The kind-hearted Xi Feng agreed. Xi Feng was used to hiding in the darkness and didn't want her appearance to frighten others. When she was about to leave after singing the song, Shui Bi followed the voice and came over. She saw Xi Feng seemed to be frightened by him, but still mustered up the courage to ask him. "
"Excuse me, have you seen where the person singing is?"
Xi Feng covered his ugly face with his hood and pointed forward.
Shuibi looked at Xifeng and smiled, then said: "Thank you."
She chased in the direction pointed by Xifeng, but found nothing.
"In order to find the owner of the song, Shuibi left the God Realm without permission and stayed in Anxi Village to wait. Every morning she would be awakened by the beautiful song."
"And Xi Feng never appeared in front of Shui Bi. All he could do every day was to put down the shell at Shui Bi's door. For Xi Feng, the smile on Shui Bi's face when he picked up the shell was a sign of his love for Xi Feng. Xifeng is willing to do anything for this smile."
"On a day like this, it's the first time I go to Shuibi to find out where Xifeng's family lives."
"That day, Shui Bi knocked on the door of Xi Feng's house. Xi Feng in the house knew it was her knocking, but he didn't dare to open the door because he was afraid of her seeing him.
Shuibi also knew that he was inside, but she didn't dare to open the door because she was afraid that she would disturb him, even though she wanted to see him very much. "
Xi Feng in the room hesitated for a while, but still couldn't muster the courage to meet, so he said: "You'd better go."
Outside the house, Shui Bi expressed her feelings and said: "Let me see you, okay? I'm here for you and your songs, so please don't avoid me next time."
"Shui Bi left anyway. Xi Feng, who could not face himself, fell into despair when he watched Shui Bi leave, because he knew that when Shui Bi saw him, she would leave him. "
"As long as we get rid of this appearance, we can face Shuibi and give her happiness. This idea deeply affected Xi Feng. So he made a terrible decision that cannot be changed."
On the beach, Xi Feng shouted crazily and paranoid: "Omnipotent Demon Lord in the world, come out. As long as you can change my appearance, I will agree to any conditions you have."
"Come out, I'm willing to trade everything for you. Didn't I say that the Demon Lord will show up on a full moon night? Why don't you come out?" Xifeng knelt on the ground crying in despair.
"Why do I have to carry such an ugly face? Why can't I see her."
At night, the Demon King came indeed.
He looked at Xifeng and asked coldly: "I'm here, mortal, what do you want from me?"
Xi Feng looked at the Demon Lord and was not afraid, because this was his only hope of seeing Shui Bi. He looked at the Demon Lord and said, "Are you the Demon Lord? I want a handsome face."
"That's it? But what do you want in exchange? What I want is the best." Chonglou said nonchalantly.
Xi Feng fell into deep thought, and finally said: "I am willing to use my voice in exchange."
Chonglou looked at Xifeng and suddenly said: "It's not enough, I want your time, five hundred years, to be my slave for five hundred years."
"Okay, I do." Xifeng said without hesitation.
When Chonglou saw that Xifeng had agreed, he was not afraid that he would break the promise. He first used magic to change the ugly scars on Xifeng's face. As expected, Xifeng became handsome.
"Let's go, my slave, follow me back to the Demon Realm." Chonglou said.
"Master, please give me a day. I want to say goodbye to the most important person." Xifeng knelt down and said in a hoarse and unpleasant voice.
Chonglou looked at Xi Feng and said disdainfully: "Exchanging your precious voice and five hundred years for one day? Stupid! I will come find you again tomorrow."
After that, Chonglou unfolded his magic wings and flew away.
the next day.
Xi Feng made an appointment with Shui Bi, and they finally met.
Shuibi looked at Xi Feng and said with excitement and joy: "They said your name is Xi Feng, and this name suits you very well.
You come to deliver shells every day. Thank you very much. In fact, every time I hear your voice, I wonder what kind of person a person with such a beautiful voice would be.
Now I finally see you, this time, you did not avoid me, Xi Feng, will you sing a song for me? Just for me, I want to hear you sing. "
Although Xi Feng had a handsome appearance, he also lost his precious voice. He could no longer sing. He looked at Shui Bi and shook his head.
He hugged Shuibi and just wanted to spend this last day with her.
