Chapter 128: Why
"The Mountains and Rivers Diagram and the Four Elephant Tripods are the two great treasures of the Tianque Realm. ”
"Much of its power is still a secret to the world. ”
"However, I have heard from Master Venerable that the reason why the Tianque Realm is able to suppress the Nine Lotus Golden Temple and the Guiyuan Palace, and sit firmly in the position of the No. 1 Divine Sect in the Northern Realm, is largely because of the existence of these two supreme treasures. ”
In the Gathering Spirit Pagoda of the White Horse Academy, Xu Yue said softly.
"Since the Nine Lotus Golden Temple and the Guiyuan Palace are both afraid of these two things, then they should know more or less about their power, how can they be ignorant and fearful?" Wei Lai asked with a frown, he keenly caught the logical error in Xu Yue's words.
Xu Yue glared at Wei Lai reproachfully, and said, "Of course I know some, but I don't know much, and it is difficult to determine what fraction of his true power is the efficacy and power he has revealed." ”
Speaking of this, Xu Yue frowned slightly, as if she was recalling the records she knew about the two: "The Four Elephant Ding can suppress the mountains and rivers, even if the Tianque Realm has not established a country, but it also has the right to canonize the righteous gods in its own territory, and it is relying on these Four Elephant Ding." It is even rumored that this tripod can refine demons, ghosts, and even yin gods. But whoever is included in this tripod will be involuntarily unable to help himself, and will become a puppet driven by this tripod. For thousands of years, there have been countless big demons and yin gods contained in the Four Elephant Ding, and it is rumored that once it is fully urged, this Ding alone will be enough to destroy any country in the north except for the Great Chu. ”
As I just said, these are the functions that have been known so far, and the power of this tripod is far more than that, as for the remaining role, there are many kinds of remarks circulating in the market, but the authenticity of them can no longer be examined, and there is no need to study deeply. ”
When Wei Lai heard this, he frowned and nodded. His mood was not easy, just the divine power that the Four Elephant Tripods had already determined was already extremely shocking, and it was no wonder that for so many years, no one in the northern realm of the Tianque Realm could shake it.
"What about the mountains and rivers?" Wei Lai asked again.
"In contrast, the mountains and rivers are even more mysterious. Xu Yue continued: "I think you should also hear the story of the eleven countries in the north, right?"
"Tianque Immortal Kingdom, Weishui Divine Kingdom. ”
"The two are like countries but not countries, and non-countries are like countries. ”
"The Weishui Dragon King has been dominating the northern territory for three thousand years, although as early as a hundred years ago, there were rumors in the north that the Weishui Dragon King was about to fall, and just a few months ago, there was a lot of noise about the Weishui Dragon King's death within three months. Whether these statements are true or not, but you see Qi, Yan, and Ghost Rong, which of the flashes next to Weishui is not trying his best to mobilize all the forces that can be mobilized to support his own water righteousness, hoping that after this incident really happens, he can enter Weishui and snatch the huge luck accumulated in the Weishui Divine Kingdom for three thousand years. ”
"Like the Weishui Divine Kingdom, the Tianque Immortal Kingdom also has such troubles. They have a country, but they have no name, and once the person at the helm of the fortune suppresses the luck dies, the system will collapse, and this collapse will come from both the internal dragons and the wolves outside. Under the embarrassing situation of being disapproved by the Brilliant Heavenly Dao, their accumulated luck was easily eaten away by outsiders in the change of power. However, compared to the Weishui Divine Kingdom, which was in the midst of the first change of power and was in danger at this moment, the Tianque Realm, which had gone through several generations for thousands of years, was very handy in this regard. ”
"Do you mean that the reason why the Tianque Realm has been able to survive the changes of power again and again is because of the supreme treasure called the Mountain and River Diagram?" Wei Lai asked with an eyebrow.
It's just that instead of being appreciated by Xu Yue, these words provoked a displeased look from the other party, and the look of anger seemed to say, "Just you are smart." ”
But soon, Xu Yue still regained his mind and continued: "For behemoths like the Tianque Realm and Weishui that gather abundant luck, in the process of power change, it is particularly important for the new ruler to be able to suppress a few points of luck left by his predecessors. For both, the ideal way is naturally for later generations to fully inherit the strength of their predecessors, so as to ensure that luck will not be taken away by outsiders throughout the process of power change. ”
But such an idea is too idealistic, even the Weishui Dragon King has not cultivated a successor who can completely take over the great Weishui Divine Kingdom in his hands in these three thousand years. However, the Tianque Realm has completed several such changes of power in the span of thousands of years, and no one has ...... the whole process Even if it was Da Chu, he didn't dare to covet the huge fortune in the Tianque Realm. And the root of this is in the mountains and rivers map......"
"There are also many speculations and rhetoric about the mountains and rivers. This point is a bit ambiguous even in the records in the Guiyuan Palace......"
"Some people say that the mountains and rivers map links the real fairy palace in the east, and some people say that he leads to the ancient secret realm that ordinary people can't imagine, all in all, there is a world in this mountain and river map, and there are countless unimaginable opportunities in that world, every time the old and new power changes, the Tianque realm will open the mountains and rivers map to select the Daozi and the future protector of this Daozi, that is, the so-called star on the star list, into this mountain and river map. After returning, the cultivation of Daozi and those generals will undergo earth-shaking changes, growing at a speed that is incomprehensible to ordinary people, and perfectly resolving the crisis caused by each change of power. ”
"And the operation of the mountain and river map is not without a cost, every time the mountain and river map is in existence, it needs to consume a huge amount of luck, if it is not for the outstanding people of the Tianque Realm, called other regions, the loss of such a huge amount of qi luck in an instant is enough to make most of the earth realms in the next few decades or even hundreds of years, difficult to recover. And even for an immortal kingdom like the Tianque Realm, it will only operate once after a new Dao appears and the star list is established......"
"Oh. Hearing these secrets that he had never heard of before, Wei Lai nodded, with a serious face: "So that's the case, or Yue'er is well-informed, which really makes me ......."
This kind of "cheering" to the extreme did not make Xu Yue give Wei Lai a good look, the girl in the wheelchair gave Wei Lai a vicious look again, and there was a sudden murderous intent in her clear eyes, she lowered her voice, and asked in a cold voice: "So...... These meals aren't to your liking, are they?"
Wei Lai's body trembled, and he looked down at the things in front of him—two food boxes made of mahogany were opened, and dishes with expensive and attractive appearances almost filled the ground in front of Wei Lai. Looking at such a sumptuous meal, the corners of Wei Lai's mouth twitched, and only after a while did he look at Xu Yue, and said with a smile: "What...... How so?"
"Then eat quickly, I'll have something to do when I'm done." Xu Yue said again.
Wei Lai glanced at the "delicacies" in front of him again, his heart was crossed, and he took out the determination not to lose to the old snake in Wupan City, picked up the chopsticks, and started the most painful "wind and clouds" in his life - it has been three days since Xiao Meng was bewitched by others and led the troops to kidnap Hu Le, and Wei Lai also enjoyed this "gentleness" that others envied for three days. Every day at noon, Xu Yue would arrive as scheduled with two lunch boxes to deliver Wei Lai a sumptuous dish that looked completely contrary to the actual taste.
Sometimes Wei Lai really wondered how Xu Yue managed to do a little bit - to peel off the taste of each meal from the tempting sales so much that it fell apart.
After eating this meal again, Wei Lai forcibly suppressed the overturning of the river and the sea in his stomach, and finally after some brewing, he held back his words for three days and said them to Xu Yue.
"Yue'er. Wei Lai called, his voice surprisingly gentle.
"Huh?" Xu Yue, who put the food box on his lap and was about to leave, looked up at Wei Lai with a somewhat puzzled expression.
"What's that...... I think it......" Wei Lai rubbed his hands, looking embarrassed, and only after a while did he speak again: "You have inconvenient legs and feet, it is really too hard to prepare so many dishes for me every day, it is better to ...... later." Forget it later......"
Wei Lai put forward his opinion as tactfully as possible, but as soon as the words fell, Xu Yue's eyes suddenly became cold: "Isn't it delicious?"
Wei Lai was excited, hurriedly shook his head, and said firmly: "There is no matter!"
Then the conversation changed: "I just think it's too hard Yue'er......"
"That's right. The expression on Xu Yue's face softened slightly.
"So, or ......," Wei Lai said again, carefully worded.
"It's okay, it's not troublesome, as long as you like it, I'll let Xu Yunian continue to do it for you tomorrow." Xu Yue said with a smile.
"Xu Yunian, didn't you say that you made all these meals?" the expression on Wei Lai's face became a little strange.
"I did it. Xu Yue glanced at Wei Lai strangely: "But I didn't do it myself, I was just in charge of commanding, and the details were handed over to Yu Nian." Don't tell me, I didn't know he had the ability before. ”
The muscles at the corners of Wei Lai's mouth began to twitch again, and he didn't know if he hadn't learned the words well, or if Xu Yue had misunderstood. After all, this is the first time in Wei Lai's life that he knows that there can be such a completely different difference between the words "made by himself" and "made by himself".
Of course, Wei Lai didn't dare to question Miss Xu's literary skills, so he could only secretly write down the name Xu Yunian in his heart.
He felt that the three-day "gluttonous feast" must have something to do with the fact that the kid surnamed Xu wanted to announce his personal vendetta, and when he thought of this, Wei Lai hated it so much.
"What's wrong?" Seeing that Wei Lai suddenly fell silent, and the expression on his face changed for a while, Xu Yue secretly felt a little strange, so he asked in confusion at that time.
Wei Lai, who came back to his senses, shook his head again and again, and said with a smile: "It's nothing." ”
Xu Yue didn't doubt him, she packed up everything and prepared to leave, but when she came, she seemed to suddenly think of something, and she turned her head to look at Wei Lai again: "By the way, after today's practice, you can go directly to Xu's mansion." ”
"Why?" Wei Lai asked with a frown.
Xu Yue's face turned red, and he said angrily: "We're all like this! Don't you have to give my father an explanation?!"
"How do we ......" Wei Lai said again puzzled, but before he finished speaking, a chill suddenly hit - Xu Yue's gaze became cold again.
Wei Lai was extremely silent and silent, and then replied in a muffled voice: "Oh." ”
Xu Yue smiled at this time, humming a little song and leaving the Gathering Spirit Tower.
......
Wei Lai was very sure that nothing serious had happened between him and Xu Yue that required Xu to be trapped.
Well...... Probably not.
Although they did, lived in the same yard...... In the same room, due to some force majeure in Xu Yue's words, he slept in the same bed for three days.
But other than that, they should be able to count innocent between them...... Right?
Thinking of this, Wei Lai felt a little weak-hearted, and even because he needed to see Xu Trap at night, such a weakness of heart tended to intensify.
He didn't feel a little upset, and his cultivation became less calm.
"My master said that when the mind is in turmoil, it is easy to go mad in practice. At this time, the lazy voice of Chu Qi suddenly came from outside the spirit tower.
Wei Lai was stunned when he heard this, so he simply put away his thoughts of continuing to practice, and used the method granted to him by Xu Trap Array to temporarily close the operation of the Spirit Gathering Array, and walked out of the Spirit Gathering Pagoda.
There was light snow outside the tower, and Chu Qi, who was wearing an exaggerated blue velvet sweater, crossed Erlang's legs, sat on the branch of a big tree, and caught a glimpse of Wei Lai, the man jumped lightly, and fell in front of Wei Lai.
Chu Qi, who got up from the snow, smiled a little awkwardly, and then hurriedly took care of the snow stains on the valuable fleece sweater with a distressed face, and only stopped after a while.
"The seniors are really idle. Wei Lai rolled his eyes, a little helpless at Chu Qi, who was sticking to him like a dog skin plaster.
"It's okay, it's okay. Chu Qi didn't seem to hear Wei Lai's words, and said with a haha.
After saying this, Chu Qi suddenly patted his head and said, "By the way, let me hand over this thing to you when Lao Cao leaves." ”
Chu Qi said and took out a crumpled book from his arms and handed it to Wei Lai: "I was busy a few days ago, don't go and sue that old guy." ”
Wei Lai was a little strange, but he still reached out and took the book from Chu Qi's hand that was so crumpled that it could almost be used as toilet paper, and looked at it, but saw that there were four big characters on the title page of the book, "Tiangang Zhengzheng".
Wei Lai's eyes froze, he hadn't heard Sun Daren complain in the past few days, Cao Tongyun said that he wanted to teach them the way of cultivation, but after throwing them a copy of Lao Shizi's "Tiangang Zhengjing", it disappeared. Sun Daren and several people have been carrying this thing vigorously in the past few days, but this morning when Long Xiu asked Sun Daren to get up, it is said that this guy was still muttering the content of this "Tiangang Zheng" mountain when he was talking in his sleep.
"Just take a look if it's okay, if you understand it, it's a huge benefit." Chu Qi also understood Wei Lai's doubts at the moment from Wei Lai's strange face, he squinted his eyes and smiled, pretending to be a profound and strange appearance.
Wei Lai was accustomed to this, so he simply put the crumpled book in his arms and said, "Thank you, senior." ”
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say. Chu Qi waved his hand and smiled, then his eyes rolled, he put his head in front of Wei Lai, and asked teasingly: "Anyway, you kid, since that girl came, her breath has been disordered, what's the matter?"
Wei Lai would pay attention to the obvious ridicule in Chu Qi's tone, he glanced at Chu Qi strangely, and asked rhetorically: "Isn't the senior already sealing the sword, how can you still gain insight into the situation of the junior?"
"Boy, this skinny camel is bigger than a horse, your seventh uncle is a peerless genius known as the sword race in the north, speaking of which, your father and mother were still my fan brothers and sisters back then!" Chu Qi said with an arrogant face.
"Since the senior has such a skill, then who hurt you to such an extent?" Wei Lai frowned when he heard this, and the question that had been bothering him for several days finally blurted out at this time.
"Hurt me, who can hurt me?" Chu Qi asked, staring at Wei Lai with wide eyes when he heard this.
"No one hurt the seniors, so why did the seniors seal the sword?" Wei Lai's face was strange, Tiangang Mountain's sword sealing method has always been a method that is only used when the practitioner is about to die, in order to let his sword dao perception in this life be passed on. If there is no embarrassment of dying, who will attribute all of his cultivation to the sword?
"Because ......" Chu Qi opened his mouth to speak, but before the words came out, he felt that it was wrong, and looked at Wei Laiyan and said: "Boy, there is a first come and first come in everything, besides, I am also your elder, before asking me questions, do you have to answer my questions first?"
Wei Lai was puzzled: "What's the problem?"
"I ask you, why is your heart in turmoil?" asked Chu Qi.
Wei Lai didn't want Chu Qi to still linger on his ridicule, Wei Lai rolled his eyes, and secretly felt that this guy was using this to change the topic, so he simply avoided saying nothing.
"Don't you say, then let me guess?" Chu Qi made it clear that he wanted to break the casserole and asked in the end, he said with a smile: "Is it because of that little girl named the Xu family?"
Wei Lai was still silent.
"Do you like her?" the smile on Chu Qi's face teased, even a little obscene......
"If the seniors have something unspeakable, the juniors will not ask more, and please don't mention the jokes at will. Wei Lai's heart jumped when he heard this, and he said immediately.
"Your seventh uncle and I sit upright, there is nothing unspeakable, just tell you about the first come, then come, you see, your kid is still anxious. Chu Qi still had a playful look on his face, and he sighed as he spoke: "If you want to say this, it's really not as good as your nerdy dad, when he chased your mother, it was called a stalking, soft grinding and hard bubble." This is not a matter of shame, your seventh uncle is from the past, where will you laugh at you......"
Looking at the posture of the first seven mouths, Wei Lai secretly felt that if he was allowed to say this, it was estimated that right and wrong would have to be reversed. He simply turned around and was about to leave after the seventh day of the first month.
Seeing this, Chu Qi hurriedly said, "Hey, hey, don't go." ”
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and grabbed Wei Lai, licked his face and asked, "So, tell your seventh uncle, do you hate that girl?"
Wei Lai was a little upset by him, and when he stopped, he said, "How can you hate it?"
"Hehe, that's right. Chu Qi was immediately satisfied when he got such an answer, and he grinned: "I don't hate it, I just like it." ”
Wei Lai rolled his eyes and said impatiently: "What does the senior think, that is, ......"
But before he finished speaking, Chu Qi, who was still smiling, suddenly turned pale and whispered.
"If so. ”
"Then you'll soon understand why. ”
