In this small town, the most people are not people, but the proud beauty red lotus blossoms. Every family will use a large tank to plant a few flowers on the balcony.
The name of this town is Honglian Town. There is a Honglian Lake in the town. There is a little red ripple in the lake, which is Honglian.
Most of the lotus flowers here are very compact, only the size of the fist of a newborn baby, the petals are pink, but the stamens are deep red, like blood, shining in the sun With rainbow light.
And in the middle of the lake, there is a lotus flower that is very different. Not only is the whole flower bright red, but its branches are also red, like human blood vessels. Moreover, its hugeness is countless times that of those miniature lotus, like a bathtub.
This naturally attracted countless people to visit Honglian Town. Yang Yang is one of them. His companions are Yuxin and Tong Qing.
Yang Yang met two girls in the town, Qing Lian and Lian Xin. The children in this town are named after lotus.
“Qinglian, how did the town grow such a big lotus?” Yuxin was very curious, standing on the boat, looking at the lotus in the middle of the lake .
“I don’t know either.” Qinglian slowly paddled the paddle, smiled softly, and answered the question that the other two wanted to know.
“The lotus here, don’t pick it, otherwise…” Lian Xin said mysteriously.
“Otherwise, how about it?” Yu Xin is a lively and naughty girl. As soon as she finished asking this sentence, she picked up a delicate pocket lotus and admired it in her palm. “I have never seen such a small lotus. The world is really wonderful.”
“You have picked them all, otherwise it will be useless.” Lian Xin smiled and rowed the boat. When facing those lotus flowers, his eyes were full of tenderness but a little disgust.
There are many people taking pictures by the lake. There are also a few leaf boats on the lake. Many lotus pickers are there.
In the lively crowd, under the shroud of feasting, a silent death came.
Early in the morning, “Tongtong, Yuxin.” Yang Yang knocked on Tong Qing and Yuxin’s doors, but none of them were in the room.
When Yang Yang called them, they all showed shut down. “What’s the matter, where did everyone go?” Yang Yang was a little anxious. Those who came together must go back together, but don’t let anything happen.
“What’s wrong?” Qinglian yawned and came out of the room.
“Tongtong and her two are gone. Have you seen them?”
Qinglian was startled, and quickly awakened Lianxin.
“Aren’t they becoming one of the lotus flowers?!” Lian Xin covered her mouth, as if she was afraid of missing her mouth.
Yang Yang was startled, realizing that there was a problem, and staring at Lianxin: “What do you mean? Tell me clearly!”
Qing Lian lit the bed sheet with a lighter, and saw a red lotus blooming its petals on the bed in the light of the fire, showing several people a strange phenomenon from full bloom to withering.
“Remember what Lianxin told you yesterday, don’t pick lotus? Everyone who picks lotus will disappear the next day. There have been such incidents in our small town. “
“Didn’t you look for it?” Yang Yang asked suspiciously.

“I found it, but no one can be seen alive, no dead body is seen. I heard that every time a person disappears, a lot of lotus flowers will grow in the Red Lotus Lake, so Everyone in the town said that anyone who picks a lotus will turn into a lotus.”
Yang Yang’s eyes became cold after hearing this, and he ran to the Red Lotus Lake to take a look. Really! In the middle of the lake, quite a lot of beautiful lotus appeared overnight, surrounded by the big lotus. Swaying in the morning wind, proudly showing off their beauty.
The lake water is still clear, and the wind gently blows over, and the lake surface is filled with waves, like a light blue brocade with pleats.
There were bursts of sad crying and noise from the street, and Yang Yang ran to the source.
“What happened?” Yang Yang asked an old woman who was crying.
“I’m an old lady, but now my daughter has disappeared here. Those who are sad are also missing from family and friends. Now they are communicating with the mayor of this small town.”
Yang Yang’s face is not good, and more than one person is missing. It seems that he is going to the lake to find out tonight.
In Rumo’s night, Yang Yang quietly went to Red Lotus Lake when he was sure no one was following him.
The hazy moonlight probed the calm lake surface, and all the red lotuses glowed like a dream, as if they were in a fairyland, and even the moonlight could not help but be intoxicated. This is also a beautiful sight worth seeing in Honglian Town.
But Yang Yang was not in the mood to enjoy the scenery at this time, so he stretched out his hand to pick the lotus by the lake, to verify what Qing Lian said.
“Stop, you don’t want to die!” He screamed and stopped Yang Yang’s outstretched finger.
Yang Yang turned his head and saw Qinglian in a green dress chasing in the wind. The moonlight facing her covered her with a soft veil, as if returning from the wind. It seemed to leave by the wind. I had never noticed that she was so beautiful, and Yang Yang’s heart suddenly broke a string.
Yang Yang is still thereWithdrawing his hand, even though the beauty was in front and almost forgot the purpose of this trip, this trip cannot be fruitless.
He leaped and jumped into the lake. Under the projection of moonlight, the lake is very dreamy. Yang Yang continued to go downstream, getting darker as he went down. Yang Yang secretly scolded himself for not bringing equipment, and he couldn’t see anything in the water.
At this time, a pocket lotus was floating beside Yang Yang, the whole lotus exuding a gentle light, illuminating Yang Yang’s surroundings.
One person and one lotus float with the water, and the darkness outside the light seems to hide countless unknown creatures.
Yang Yang used this lotus lantern to swim deep, so he saw many things that he shouldn’t see and understand.
Yang Yang’s breath was about to die, he hurried out of the water, took a few breaths of fresh air, and then went into the water again.

Approaching the silt at the bottom of the lake at the fastest speed, what is the looming white bone? Yang Yang gently and slowly moved the silt away…
Yang Yang struggled up and coughed several times. On the surface of the water, sparkling, the water lily has closed its petals and is nourishing energy. It’s too quiet, not even frogs or insects. Beauty is still so beautiful, but Yang Yang seemed to hear the shivering laughter under each water lily.
His whole body was cold, his goose bumps were crunching in the water, and he almost drowned in the water with just a glance. This time I have to go down again to confirm, who will know this secret?
When he returned to his residence, Yang Yang didn’t even feel his clothes wet.
This small town is antique, no matter where it is, it is full of classics. There is no electricity in this town, all oil lamps are lit. Now that I think about it, the people in this small town are too cold, even if there are more tourists, it will not reduce the coldness of the people in this town.
“Oh! You still know it after all.” A sigh echoed in the room, and the lights on the table were constantly swaying, possibly extinguished at any time.
“Come out!” Yang Yang roared, “This small town does not exist at all. It is an empty town, and those of us who travel are just our own radio waves and town. The same frequency, so I came in.”
A picture appeared on the wall. It was a huge lotus with a person sitting on the lotus. Her cold face was familiar to Yang Yang. That is Qinglian!
“Please tell me the story.” Yang Yang looked at Qing Lian with a heartache. He saw her in a red dress and her body under the big lotus flower at the bottom of the lake. Uncorrupted, the thick stems of the lotus flower rooted in her heart, and she was sleeping so beautifully.
“That’s aA long-standing story…”
The lotus in Honglian Town is famous far and wide. The mayor’s daughter Honglian likes lotus very much. Demon…”
Honglian looked at the lotus in the lake and read poems happily. The little one was not satisfied that the lotus flowers were so big, and the color was not unique. . Over time, I get tired of reading it.
She consulted ancient books and tried to cultivate new varieties of lotus, but all failed.
As he grows older, Honglian has gradually lost hope for cultivating new varieties, but when there is no hope, a book appeared, telling how to cultivate new plants by humans.
< br/>
The book says that if you plant a lotus on a man under the age of twelve, you can get a pocket lotus; if you use an adult woman’s body as a container to cultivate the lotus, you can plant a large red lotus with the same body.
“For the sake of experimentation, I killed my brother and planted lotus flowers, and I happened to be an adult at that time, so I used myself as a vessel to cultivate red lotus. At that time, I was too excited and happy. Because I was young and ignorant, I killed all the people in the town and became Lotus’s nourishment. You can see that this is how the beautiful and peculiar lotus flower came from. “Qing Lian has tears and sadness in her eyes. “But the soul of this small town can no longer get out of the town. “
“What about the person who went missing this day?” Why can’t you pick lotus flowers? “
“They have become lotus fertilizers.” The lotus is the soul of all people in this town. Once it is picked, the soul entrusted in it has no place to settle down, and it needs to find someone to become a nourishment and bloom again. “
Yang Yang listened carefully, without interrupting her.
“I am Red Lotus, and Lianxin is the one I made with Lianrui. Connect with me. Don’t worry, as long as you don’t pick the lotus, you can go out safely. “Qinglian looked into the distance, her eyes were deep, and she disappeared into the light.
Yang Yang remembered that at the bottom of the lake, he saw the lotus roots with moss-covered white bones, and Some fresh corpses, seeing Tong Qing and Yuxin, felt a chill in my heart. I still remember the gloomy eyes with the holes in the bones of the eyes.
