Chapter 4: The Purple Sun Rises in the East and the Red Star Falls

1.

Let's go back to the beginning - a long, long time ago, at that time, there was no seven-story building.

...............

Kunlun Mountain, covered with snow, under the weak water 3,000.

The night was like ink, and the bright moon was blocked behind the thick clouds, only a few faint traces of clear light emerged from the cracks in the clouds.

Next to the Qianyuan Palace of the Ziyang Divine Sect, three figures swept by quietly and gently, avoiding the patrol route of the night patrol disciples. A black-clothed boy at the head jumped behind a stone beast, looked around, and gestured to a man and a woman behind.

The white-clothed young man behind nodded knowingly, patted the shoulder of the girl who was looking around, and the two ran towards the stone beast where the black-clothed young man was.

"Smack-"

"What people!"

"Fuck! Are you a pig!" The young man in black couldn't help but curse in a low voice, and the young man in white also turned around and rolled his eyes at the girl next to him speechlessly, and said two words with his mouth: "Stupid!" The girl had an innocent expression on her face, and stood in place at a loss, with a flower pot that had been kicked over at her feet.

I could only hear the sound of footsteps in the distance, and from far and near, the night patrol disciples had already heard the sound and rushed over. The young man in black beckoned vigorously: "Come here, you guys, why are you still standing there stupidly, do you want to wait to be caught?

The young man in white gritted his teeth, picked up the girl by the waist, jumped lightly, and quietly fell to the young man in black. A few figures had flashed in the corner, and the young man in black was a little entangled, then strode out, pretending not to know, and slowly paced to the side of the kicked over flower pot, and slowly squatted down to straighten it.

At this moment, the disciples who were watching the night had already arrived behind him, and when he turned around, he saw a row of long swords pointed at his chest in unison.

"Senior Brother?" said one of the disciples with wide eyes.

The black-clothed young man called "Senior Brother" picked up a talisman and shook it in the wind, lit a small flame, leaned in front of him, and illuminated his face: "It's me." ”

"It's so late, you're ...... here"

"Oh, I just practiced on this top - you know, it's more open on it, which is good for practicing qi and breathing. The black-clothed young man lied as he put his hands behind his back and gestured a few times, and then continued, "That...... You can see that it's so dark around here, and when you come down, you don't pay attention, and you kick something. Hehe...... I'm sorry to frighten you!"

The disciples of the night patrol looked at each other, although they felt that this reason was very far-fetched, but they could not find any evidence; besides, after all, this person in front of him was the first disciple of the Divine Sect, and this identity was placed there, so what was true or false, and they were the children of the outer sect who could not help him.

The leader immediately replied with a salute and said, "In this case, I won't disturb your cultivation, Senior Brother." It's getting late, senior brother, you also need to rest early. ”

"Got it, let's go, it's all scattered, what should I do. The black-clothed young man watched the disciples who were patrolling the night walk away, pretending to take a few steps in the direction of the dormitory, and after making sure that there was no one, he returned to the stone beast.

The young man in white and the girl who was in trouble were no longer in place, thinking that they had understood the code he had quietly typed just now. At that moment, he didn't worry about it anymore, and flew up to the roof of the Qianyuan Palace, where the young man and the girl in white were already sitting and waiting.

"Ahem...... The upper side is relatively open, which is conducive to practicing qi and breathing. When the girl saw the young man in black jump on the roof, she cleared her throat with a smile and pretended to smile, and then imitated the tone of the young man in black and repeated what he had just said.

"You still say!" the black-clothed young man glanced at the girl fiercely, "If it weren't for your clumsiness, where would you have come from so much!How many times have Ling Ying and I sneaked out, and I haven't even been caught by anyone; if it weren't for you today, would I still have to show up in front of people?"

"Okay, you Lin Xiao, how do you speak? No big or small! The big disciple is amazing, don't forget that I am still your senior sister!" the girl glared back angrily and said angrily.

The corners of Lin Xiao's mouth twitched, and he said softly: "You are the daughter of the head of the family, and you are not included in the door wall, so you are embarrassed to use your identity to pressure me! Besides, even if you are my senior sister, can you change the fact that you are clumsy?"

"You ......" The girl was countered to the army, and she couldn't find any suitable words to go back for a while, so she had to stare dryly and sulk with her eyes puffed out.

Lin Xiao also knew that his "senior sister" was faking to be angry, but he didn't have to coax her, so he moved to the white-clothed young man Ling Ying and lay down on his legs with his arms on his feet. "It's best to find Ling Ying's partner for this kind of thing like night travel, right?

"It's a fart!" Ling Ying looked at the underbeaten face and waved his hand angrily to fight, "What's the problem? Take me every time! I'll tell you you'd better give me as far as you can now, don't force me to whip you!"

"Shhhh The girl suddenly turned her head sideways, stretched out her hand and patted Lin Xiao and Ling Ying a few times in a row to signal them to be quiet, and then brushed away the long hair in her ears and listened carefully for a while. "Someone seems to have come up. ”

Lin Xiao and Ling Ying smiled suddenly, Lin Xiao leaned low and leaned closer to the girl: "Where?"

"I don't know. The girl frowned, carefully identifying the direction of the voice. At this time, all three of them tensed their minds, and they didn't even dare to take a breath of air, and under the silence around them, they did hear a small sound of footsteps coming from nowhere, intermittently, and it seemed to be not far away.

"It's definitely not a night patrol disciple, otherwise a group of people would have been called a long time ago. ”

Ling Ying listened to the footsteps from far and near, as if he was groping for the way forward, and couldn't help but whisper to Lin Xiao and the girl: "You listen to this person's footsteps, walking and stopping, is he recognizing the way—or rather, he may be looking for us somewhere." ”

"If we really arrest someone, as long as there is an open fire spell, the three of us will definitely not have to run. Lin Xiao thought for a moment and said, "It shouldn't be a person who patrols all the way, and this person may also be afraid of exposing his position directly, so he's ...... A detour?"

"What then?" asked the girl, "if he finds us unknowingly, and suddenly one more person comes out, and it is terrible to think about it." ”

"If God wants to come among us without knowing it, I am afraid that he will not expose his footsteps. Lin Xiao rolled his eyes and showed a wicked smile, "The person who can calculate the head of this son in this world has not yet been born, with him? I'm afraid it's still eight hundred years early! Look at me." After finishing speaking, he twisted a magic trick with one hand, and drew a formation talisman on the ground with the other hand.

"Heaven and Earth Net Technique?" Ling Ying felt the fluctuation of spiritual power in the center of the formation, "How many heavens have you cultivated, can you do it?"

"Just entered the Sixth Heaven, this range is definitely enough. Lin Xiao closed his eyes and felt it carefully.

This "Heaven and Earth Net Technique" is a unique skill of the Ziyang Divine Sect, the caster is centered on himself, and spreads the spiritual power like a heaven and earth net, and can sense and capture all the fluctuations around him. The range of perception is determined by the caster's own cultivation.

This technique is similar to the "Technique of Observing Micro" in other Immortal Sects, except that the "Technique of Observing Microscopic Techniques" is limited to a single targeted target, while the "Heaven and Earth Net" covers all things within a certain range that can release breath fluctuations.

Of course, the similarity lies in the fact that if the caster senses a target that is more powerful than the caster himself, it is very likely that the caster will have a backlash of spiritual power, which is needless to say.

The exertion of the "Heaven and Earth Net Technique" consumes a lot of internal force, and it has certain requirements for the strength of mental power. Although the sitting area of this Qianyuan Palace is large, with Lin Xiao's current cultivation of the Six Heavens, it is more than enough to cover the entire roof of the "Heaven and Earth Net".

"Ling Ying, pay attention, listen to me. ”

Ling Ying could hear Lin Xiao's voice ringing in his ears, but he didn't see him speak, knowing that he used the "Secret Transmission Technique" in order not to make a sound and reveal his location. nodded at him knowingly, waved his right hand lightly, and at the fluctuation of spiritual power, a snow-white jade flute was already in his hand.

"Face southeast, listen to my code, sound, take a step. ”

There was a very thin and light sound of tapping the roof tiles with his fingertips, and Ling Ying held the jade flute in his hand, leaned down, and listened to the sound of tapping and gently moving step by step.

When he had to walk about six or seven steps, he heard Lin Xiao's voice again: "One step further, it will be in front of you." Don't fall in love with the war after the fight, so that the 'green mountains faintly' turn to 'Gu Bai Sensen', and force people to this side. ”

Ling Ying took a deep breath, took another step forward, and saw a vague figure in the night;

The man didn't seem to expect his whereabouts to be discovered, let alone Ling Ying to make a sudden move. In a hurry, he hurriedly took three steps back, and at a glance, he saw the light emitted by the jade flute in Ling Ying's hand when it was flowing spiritual power: "Feixue......?

Before he could finish speaking, Ling Ying's movements were one step faster than him, and he dodged in front of him again, and the jade flute in his hand called "Feixue" slanted a move, which was transformed into a move "Gu Bai Sensen" according to Lin Xiao's words.

As the second disciple of the sect, Ling Ying only started learning art a year later than Lin Xiao, and his strength was almost the same as him, so he was naturally not bad; The man was forced by him to retreat, cursed in a low voice, turned over and jumped, and after landing on the ground, he quickly slid backwards with a kick, and distanced himself from Ling Ying.

As soon as he gained a foothold, he heard someone behind him chuckle, and the laughter could not hide the joy of some kind of conspiracy succeeding. The man seemed to think of something, and his heart suddenly skipped a beat, and the secret was not good.

The next moment, a golden glitter lit up under his feet, and a thin rope tied him like a rice dumpling in an instant.

"Fuck! Dingyun Suo!" the man couldn't help but curse, and then he felt a pain in the back of his head, and he fainted in front of his eyes.

2.

"Some people, it's really - don't fight for three days, go to the house and uncover the tiles!"

Lin Xiao staggered Erlang's legs with a wicked smile, looking at the person who was trapped in a ball and knocked unconscious by Dingyun Suo hanging on the ridged beast on the cornice, and when the person woke up slowly, he saw that he was hanging in the air, and his feet were hanging in the air a lot, as for whether he was relaxed or not, it was very debatable.

"Hey, Lin Xiao, you bastard! What are you doing!" the man spun around in the air, and when he turned around, he saw the three people lying there laughing under him. "Let me down, or I'll call someone!"

Lin Xiao wiped the tears that came out of the laughter in the corners of his eyes: "You should call me to hear it--do you dare! Let everyone take a look at your current appearance, are you still going to mix here! Besides, you are not afraid that your father will break your legs with a cane after he finds out!"

The man was immediately silent when he heard this, although he was still trembling with anger, but he didn't dare to make any more noise.

It is also said that no one in the entire Ziyang Divine Sect does not know that his father is none other than Li Zhulian, the elder of the Discipline Hall who is in charge of punishment, and he is the most ruthless in the matter of the precepts; if he really lets his father know, the possibility of breaking his leg with a cane probably accounts for more than fifty percent.

Seeing that the intimidation of Lin Xiao was fruitless, the man could only stare dryly, but this could not change the fact that he was hanging in the air like a sack. So after hanging and turning around a few more times, he finally spoke again: "Senior Sister Yunxiao, you are a good person, please let me down quickly, I will definitely help you if you have any help in the future!"

"Eh~ What do you mean?" Lin Xiao stopped Yunxiao beside him, "Senior sister is a good person, that means that Ling Ying and I are not good people?"

"I'm going to have a face!" Li Zhou spat hard, and kicked his bound feet in Lin Xiao's direction, as if he was going to kick him in the air. "What the fuck are you talking about, it's so good on this, why don't you hang yourself up and try it!"

Ling Ying watched this farce with a smile on the side, and couldn't help but say: "I said Li Zhou, why did you come to this top without sleeping in the middle of the night?

"So I said......" Lin Xiao smiled, "His head must have been caught by that door when he was reincarnated in the past life, so his brain is naturally not good!"

Li Zhou scolded: "You shut up for me! Don't you also run over here, what position do you have to say about me!"

"Don't avoid the important and light, first answer why do you still wear night clothes even if you go out for a night tour?"

"I like you to take care of me!"

"Oh, then you don't seem to have a brain caught in the door, but you don't have a brain at all!"

"Shut up, dogs can't spit ivory out of their mouths! I'll ...... when I go down."

"That's it?" Lin Xiao said with a smile, while staring at Li Zhou's angry face with straight eyes, "I said that you can change a few new words for scolding, you suffer so much like this, I don't have a sense of accomplishment - I don't use those you know since I learned to scold!"

"Okay, you, is it a glorious thing to be able to scold, how thick is your skin!" Yunxiao smiled and scolded, reaching out and flicking it on the back of Lin Xiao's head. "You better put him down quickly, you guys make a little more trouble, and if you bring all the disciples who are watching the night over later, the four of us will be finished together!"

"Don't worry, senior sister, he hasn't said what he's doing yet. ”

"What are you doing, I'm going to do it!"

"Let's ...... But there is serious business. ”

"Pull you down, what serious can you do!"

Lin Xiao wrapped his arms around his chest, smacked his lips, and then stretched out a finger and pointed at the sky: "Look at the meteors." ”

Seeing Li Zhou open his mouth to speak, Lin Xiao took the first step and said, "Eh, don't tell me that you are the same as us." This is what Ling Ying and his father just calculated in Tianji Pavilion this afternoon, and they didn't announce it to the public, how can you be so well-informed, are you a tailwind ear or a clairvoyant...... Not true!"

Lin Xiao suddenly reacted to a possibility as he spoke: "You eavesdropped, right?"

"I don't have ......"

"Okay, Elder Miaofa has said that the secret of heaven must not be revealed, and you still dare to eavesdrop!"

"Fart! I'm passing by......"

"Look, you see, admit it!"

"Alright, have you made enough trouble? Ling Ying glanced at Lin Xiao impatiently, "If you quarrel with him again, the time has not yet come, let's go to the Discipline Hall to report first!"

Lin Xiao also glanced back: "It's really ......" Yubi raised his hand and snapped his fingers, and Dingyun Suo quickly let go of Li Zhou's body and put him down from it. Li Zhou didn't expect him to take it when he said it, but he didn't react, and almost nodded his head and planted it on the roof; fortunately, Ling Ying stepped forward and took the handle, otherwise he would have fallen on the roof and made a loud noise.

"You ......"

"Okay, okay, stop for a while, and then quarrel later. ”

3.

As the hour approached, the clouds in the sky gradually dispersed, and the bright moon gradually revealed, sprinkling the cold moonlight all over the entire Kunlun Mountain. Three teenagers and a young girl sat on the roof of the Qianyuan Palace and looked at the sky, expecting the meteors to fly by.

"You say, can you really see a meteor?" asked Yunxiao, holding his chin.

"My dad said that meteors only appear at certain times and places, and they can be affected by other things. Whether you can see it or not, there is no guarantee of this kind of thing. Ling Ying said.

"Senior Uncle Ling Xiao is the most amazing Mystic Elder of the Purple Sun Divine Sect in the past hundred years, his original 'Star Calculation' is accurate, surpassing those ancestors who could only use the 'Bu Yuan Technique' to make rough guesses about the stars, and he is the first genius of the Heavenly Machine Pavilion. Lin Xiao put his arms behind his head and yawned and said, "If he said he could, then he would definitely be able to." ”

Ling Ying sighed slightly: "But my father will also have a time to look away." Astrological things are unpredictable, and no matter how subtle the algorithm is, it is incomprehensible. ”

"I said......" Li Zhou suddenly sat up straight, raising his eyes and looking into the distance. "When you're done talking nonsense, you'll be able to see the meteors. ”

Suddenly, the three people who were lying or leaning on sat up like corpses, put their hands on their foreheads, and their eyes lit up.

"What!

"Step aside, don't squeeze me!"

I saw a meteor in the night sky, crossing a graceful arc in the dark night, first a very thin and very small light, slowly falling from the distant sky, like a flying silver ribbon, drilling into the dark night sky.

There are many meteors in the summer night, and in a few moments, another meteor streaks across the sky. Yun Xiao smiled and looked very excited, if it weren't for the fear that the noise would attract the night patrol disciples, I am afraid that he would have already jumped up and clapped his hands and cheered.

"Okay, you are a good boat, your eyes are sharp enough, for the sake of you discovering the meteor, I will forgive you today"

"Shit! What do I want you to forgive!"

"Oh, don't make a noise. Yunxiao looked at the silver arcs that crossed by, and said with a smile: "I heard some junior sisters from the same door say that when you see a meteor, if you tie a knot in the belt and make a wish silently in your heart, if you tie the knot before the meteor disappears, and make a wish in time, then this wish can come true." Are you saying that's true?"

Lin Xiao smiled and picked up his belt: "Who knows, if you can't try, I'm afraid that our hands and feet are not fast enough." ”

Meteors are numerous, but they tend to be fleeting. The four of them each wore their belts, and when they saw a meteor, they often only moved their fingers, and the meteor disappeared. After a while, I saw a red meteor flying through the southern sky, dragging for a long time. Yunxiao moved quickly and quickly tied a knot.

"That's right, senior sister, it's so fast. Li Zhou couldn't help but praise, and saw that the meteor had not disappeared yet, so he hurriedly hit one: "I also beat it, this meteor is really long." ”

"It's not long, it's slow. ”

Lin Xiao's voice came from the side, and there was a hint of strangeness in his tone inexplicably.

When Yunxiao and Li Zhou looked back, they saw that he and Ling Ying both stood up, looking at the red light that slowly crossed the sky, and there was no longer a playful and playful look on their faces, but they looked a little abnormal and serious.

Ling Ying raised a hand, and the tip of his index finger traced a little along the trail of the red meteor, and then gently "tsk": "This seems to be different from the trajectory in my father's algorithm." ”

Lin Xiao touched his chin: "You see, the color of this meteor is different from the others, and the light is dim, the speed is also slow, and there is a feeling of crumbling. Ling Ying, do you have a Star Palace Disk with you?"

"Brought it. Ling Ying stretched out his hand and wiped the Qiankun bag on his waist for storage, and a bronze-textured, chessboard-style astrolabe appeared in his hand, and a few bright stars floated on the astrolabe. Lin Xiao said: "Although your algorithm is far inferior to Senior Uncle Ling Xiao, after all, you are also a dignified young master of Tianji Pavilion, so it should not be bad......"

"Talking about the ...... point"

"Count the starwaters of this thing. ”

Ling Ying stretched out his hand and fiddled with the star points on the star palace disk a few times, and rotated the bracket on the star palace disk, adjusting the direction of the astrolabe to the trajectory of the red meteor, and pinching his fingers while adjusting the direction of the astrolabe. At this moment, the red meteor had disappeared from the sky and fell to the south, with a faint sound.

Suddenly, Ling Ying's calculating fingers froze, Huo Di stood up and looked in the direction where the meteor fell, and clenched his fists tightly: "That's not a meteor, it's a life star!"

Lin Xiao and the three of them couldn't help but be stunned, and after they could react to what they were like, their faces changed.

The horoscope does not represent a personal fortune, but the fortune of a certain cultivation force. This kind of power can be a family or a sect.

The formation of the natal star is formed by the convergence of the undissipated spiritual consciousness of the ancestral heroic spirits to which the force belongs, and its star power rises and falls to represent the rise and fall of a Xiuzhen force.

And the situation that Lin Xiao and the four of them are seeing now is the most extreme one - falling stars. The fall of the life star only means one thing, that is, the sect or family to which the life star belongs has been destroyed!

Li Zhou asked: "Looking at the size of this life star, the force to which it belongs is really not weak." How could it be wiped out?Ling Ying, can you figure out that this life star belongs to that force?"

Ling Ying shook his head.

"No, I've pretty much guessed it. Lin Xiao stood up and dusted off his robe and said, "Ling Ying, although you can't figure out the belonging of the life star, but the basic attributes of the life star, I think you should still be able to calculate it." ”

Ling Ying nodded and said, "South, fire the plain." ”

"That's right—the South, the prairie fire. Lin Xiao said slowly.

The three of them had a flash of inspiration in their minds, looked at each other for a while, and said four words in unison:

"Liaoyuan Family?!"
