Chapter 70: The King of Mizukawa
On the neatly paved blue brick streets, pedestrians are in a hurry, and traffic is busy.
Ji Fan walked unhurriedly and walked towards the inn that Yue Qing had made an appointment.
Passing by the Scorpion Gang, he looked through the open gate, and found that there were no monks going up the mountain inside, only the Scorpio Gang's men and horses, standing in a row at the moment, with a serious expression, and a man who looked like a steward was talking about something.
Ji Fan hurriedly flashed and crossed in front of his door, which was a mountain in his eyes, and he suddenly saw that in the depths of the alley next to him, a black courtyard door was tightly closed, which was the residence of the know-it-all.
So the footsteps instinctively stepped forward, but they stopped halfway.
It is said that he and Yue Qing were liquidated by the king at that time, and this person was also involved, but the other party was just a business, what could he say after he entered again?
Allowing them to calculate others, not allowing others to calculate them? Know-it-all is just a bridge that everyone can cross.
Thinking of this, he retracted his gaze and returned to the street, whether he was put on the street by the other party or not, everything is not important now, everything between him and Yue Qing in the Spirit Beast Mountain Range will be declared over today, and the relationship between all the events will have nothing to do with them after they return to the Juexin Gate.
......
It wasn't until he saw the plaque of the inn that he breathed a sigh of relief, no one around his eyes noticed it, and walked up quickly, but he stopped after only three or two steps, because at the door, there were four gold-armored guards, looking coldly in all directions, the blades were bright and eye-catching.
Ji Fan was puzzled and tried to approach, and those soldiers immediately stood with their swords horizontally, and the murderous aura in their cold eyes condensed.
"King Shuichuan is here, change an inn!"
Ji Fan was shocked, those who can be called kings in the Tianxuan Kingdom are generally members of the royal family, although he has not heard of the name of King Shuichuan, but he also knows that the identity of the person sitting inside must be quite prominent, but he did not expect that this partial place has attracted a big person.
Now that it must have been emptied, is Yue Qing still here?
He frowned slightly, thinking worriedly, when a majestic old man's voice suddenly came from upstairs: "Let him come up." ”
Ji Fan was stunned for a moment, the gold-armored soldier was quite strong, and without hesitation, he 'invited' his people in, "squeak", the door of the inn was also closed, Ji Fan entered the neatly and slightly messy clothes, looked around vigilantly, the entire inn was empty, quite deserted.
"Senior brother. ”
Yue Qing's familiar voice came from upstairs, Ji Fan looked over, and saw Yue Qing sitting by the window on the second floor, and there was an old man opposite, presumably this was the 'King of Shuichuan'.
Puzzled about how Yue Qing got acquainted with such a character, he went upstairs worriedly, and looked up to see that he was over seventy years old, with a linen robe and a plain crown, and an extraordinary temperament, but when he saw the old man's face clearly, he was stunned, this was actually the old man who fought with the black-robed man on the holy mountain of the Spirit Beast Mountain Range in the past!
Ji Fan bowed respectfully, after all, even if the sect master of Juexinmen was here, he had to be polite as the king of Shuichuan.
King Shuichuan looked kind, motioned for Ji Fan to sit down, without any royal shelf, and said with a soft smile: "Nowadays, young people don't know much about politeness." ”
Ji Fan scratched his head and gave another salute before sitting down next to Yue Qing.
"What you saw that day was actually the child of an old friend of mine, who had never gone back through the barrier of the Holy Mountain, and I really didn't want him to follow in my old friend's footsteps. King Shuichuan smiled at Yue Qing.
It seemed that the two were chatting about something before, but they were only interrupted after Ji Fan arrived.
"Where is it behind the Sacred Mountain Barricade?"
"I don't know, the Holy Mountain Barrier has existed since ancient times, and no one knows who set it up, but anyone who intends to pass through the Sacred Mountain Barrier will either die on the Holy Mountain or never come back, and no one knows what is behind the barrier. King Mizukawa sighed.
"Has no one ever succeeded?" Yue Qing frowned.
“...... Not necessarily, if you have to say it, it is rumored that the Holy King once entered the Holy Mountain Barrier and successfully returned, what is inside, it is estimated that only he knows, but now the Demon Forest is treacherous, and the Holy King has long since disappeared. ”
"The Holy King... Who is it?" Ji Fan couldn't help but interject with relish, although he joined in the middle, he gradually integrated into the topic.
"The Holy King is not a human, it is a spirit animal. King Mizukawa glanced at him and said.
"Spirit Beast, Saint King, is it the King of Spirit Beasts?" Ji Fan was startled at first, and then asked.
"Well, so to speak. King Mizukawa said.
Ji Fan smacked his lips when he heard this, he had seen the Nine Nether Snakes, if he could only be a soldier with this strength, then the strength of the Holy King would be terrifying, I am afraid it is really impossible to guess.
"But I heard that the Saint King is not a spirit beast?" Yue Qing said at this time.
"Hehe, I didn't expect you to hear it, but such news is just a rumor, it is indeed a spirit beast itself, but it is different from an ordinary spirit beast, it is an ancient relic. ”
"Ancient relics?" Ji Fan was puzzled, but Yue Qing was very stunned.
"Well, it's a descendant of the Immortal Qi of the Ancient Era. ”
"Immortal Qi!?Is it the kind of myth and legend that is called the same as Ying Long and Shenhuang?"
Ji Fan frowned, legend has it that there is a pure land above heaven and earth, called Xianting, which is immortal and lives with the sky, strange flowers and trees grow here, and rare and auspicious beasts are all present, which is the highest place for the cultivation of all souls!
Immortal Qi, the Divine Phoenix lives in this place.
Shaking his head, after coming into contact with cultivation, he knew that in fact, there was no such thing in this world, and there was no such thing in this world, such as the Immortal Court, the Divine Phoenix, and the Immortal Life, it was all the imagination of the ancestors, and it was a kind of sustenance and comfort for the cultivator's empty soul, and the simplest proof was that no one in this world had ever seen this kind of thing, and there was no living being who had ever entered this divine realm, birth, old age, sickness and death, whether it was a cultivator or an ordinary human being, it had always been a natural law that could not be escaped in this world.
"Hehe, young man, I know what you're questioning, you're trying to say that mythical artifacts don't exist, right?"
Ji Fan hesitated, but nodded anyway.
"Hehe, in fact, you're right to think so, after all, even the old man doesn't believe it... It's just that sometimes the old man also thinks about the truth of the myth, and what one person says to another person is called a rumor, but if everyone in the world has heard it, can it still be regarded as a rumor?... Myths and history have endured since ancient times, and how can a thing that is not believed in by hundreds of millions of living beings all over the world dare not forget to this day, like a brand, even if it is fake, how can this thing have such an impact? Can human beings do it?"
Ji Fan opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything, this kind of remark was a subversive impact on his heart, he suddenly remembered the huge black shadow in the dark clouds in that dream, and the huge human ...... in the Ling Void Realm
"There is a medium for any speech, maybe myths and legends exist, but not necessarily what we hear now, it may be a kind of fanatical reverence for the strong in ancient times. Yue Qing thought for a while, and then said.
"Makes sense. King Mizukawa nodded, he was not a fanatic, and there was no point in continuing to argue.
"Yo!"
After chatting a few more words, then a sharp bird cry suddenly came from outside the window, and several people looked at it, only to see that it was an eagle falcon with a size of half a foot, rushing over with billowing black smoke, Ji Fan and the two were startled, because the eagle falcon seemed to be small, but it exuded a terrifying atmosphere, the whole body was black and white, and the murderous intent in the eyes of the fierce eagle was awe-inspiring.
"Don't be nervous, this is my spirit animal, Black Flame Eagle. ”
Ji Fanwen's eyes looked at it curiously, this Black Flame Eagle is a high-grade spirit beast, with a rebellious temperament, and it is difficult to catch, but I didn't expect the King of Shuichuan to have one.
However, this body size has obviously not reached the maturity stage, in fact, they have not seen a mature high-grade spirit beast in the spirit beast mountain range for half a year, maybe the growth of the spirit beast is very difficult.
The half-foot-sized eagle falcon landed on the shoulders of the Shuichuan King, and the two of them glanced at the two of them with a fierce light in his small eyes, and the sharp eagle beak shook his wings, not knowing what message he was conveying, but the Shuichuan King with a kind face gradually became solemn.
"Something happened?" Yue Qing asked casually.
"Hmm..."King Mizukawa just nodded, apparently not wanting to tell. Ji Fan's heart moved, combined with the recent situation, nine times out of ten it was the matter of the Demon Blood Forest, what happened in this Demon Blood Forest after they left, making the official mansion go deep and the royal family arrived?
is just a pre-ancient spirit cave, I'm afraid that there is no such energy to make all parties gather.
"It seems that we can't talk anymore, and I have to thank you, otherwise I, the King of Shuichuan, will be reduced to the food of some beasts in the Spirit Beast Mountain Range......" After a moment of silence, the King of Shuichuan got up.
Ji Fan understood the relationship between the two, that day the King of Shuichuan and the man in black were shot down by the Nine Ghost Wolf Snake, and it seems that they were later rescued by Yue Qing.
"It's not enough to raise your hands. Yue Qing bowed his hand politely.
"Hehe, a young man with a heart like you, there are not many heavens left...... "King Shuichuan nodded approvingly, palmed his hand, and a gold medal fell on the table.
"The grace of saving his life cannot be repaid, if he has any trouble in the future, he can get help in any official mansion in Tianxuan with a gold medal, if he has the opportunity, he can come to the imperial capital Shuichuan Mansion to find me." King Mizukawa hurriedly said a word, said goodbye to the two of them, and left.
After he left, Ji Fan asked, "Senior brother, what's going on with the Holy Mountain Barrier?"
"It is said that the sacred mountain is actually a barricade, and it is not known who set it up or where it is behind it. ”
"Access to the outside world, perhaps?"
Ji Fan guessed, but Yue Qing shook his head.
"By the way, why did it take you so long to come out, did anything happen on the way?" Yue Qing frowned.
"Nothing ......"
Ji Fan explained the situation in general, and met Zhou Jingyuan Shanshan and a few people, he nodded slightly, and he expected the Scorpion Gang to guard the entrance of the mountain, but when he heard the news of the closure of the Demon Blood Forest, his expression changed slightly.
"Demon Blood Forest ......" Yue Qing's eyes narrowed slightly, his expression was deep, and after a moment, he shook his head.
"Forget it, with our strength, these are not ...... for us to worry about"
The conversation between the two ended with someone coming to the inn.
At the time of the meal, Yue Qing beckoned Xiao Er to serve a table of good dishes, which was regarded as Xiao Qing's successful experience, and the wine was half drunk, and the two went back to their rooms to rest.
