Chapter 130: Guardian Beast
(Girls' Literature)
The relationship between Red Lotus and Jing Ke heated up rapidly. All of a sudden, it's wonderful. Every day, they would say something about the world before Red Lotus. Jing Ke will also tell Honglian about Jingjia Village.
Red Lotus also likes to say. Jing Ke loves to listen even more. The two have a common topic. Naturally close.
Kuroko watched the two men talk every day. I was so depressed that I couldn't do it. Jing Ke became more and more estranged from him. But he was powerless to stop it.
So Kuroko can only change the routine. Take the initiative to approach the Red Lotus. Want to ease the relationship.
Honglian didn't deliberately avoid him. also talked and laughed with Kuroko. Gradually. The relationship between these three people turned out to be very good. The three of them always go in and out together.
Red Lotus lives here very easily. She even felt like she could go on like this. But she also knew. He has joined the Wudan sect. She is now a disciple of the Wudan Sect. This time it came out. It's just for the sake of experience. She was going to leave here and return to the Wudan Sect after all.
After Jing Ke knew the identity of the red lotus? and made up a reason for her. said that he came to Jingjia Village to live for a long time. The people here are also welcoming. Didn't ask deeply. Treat the red lotus as if it were a member of the village. Especially look at the red lotus and Jing Ke. The relationship between the two people is very good. I don't mind anymore.
Because Red Lotus is a woman dressed as a man. So it's always not good to live in Jing Ke's room. So Jing Ke and Heizi were two. Together, they helped Honglian build a house that belonged to her in Jingjia Village.
In order not to arouse suspicion. This house is built in much the same way as the house here. Red Lotus has not changed.
Red Lotus followed Jing Ke to collect medicine every day in Jingjia Village. Chop wood and boil water for cooking.
A year flies.
Red Lotus gradually became accustomed to the lifestyle of Jingjia Village. She followed Jing Ke. Learned to zama step. Learned to sleep on wood. I also learned how to grow rice.
Unconsciously. The strength of the Red Lotus's body actually reached the twelfth layer of the Qi cultivation period. There is only one step left to break through to the foundation building period. But that's it. It's thousands of miles away.
Red Lotus is here. You can eat Lingmi twice a month. The physical strength is also getting higher and higher. Cultivation is still growing steadily.
this day. Red Lotus didn't sleep as lazy as before. Instead, I woke up early. Red Lotus has been accustomed to life here. It began to form a habit. Every night. She was going to sleep. And sleep for at least three hours.
Although the time for cultivation has become less. However, Red Lotus's cultivation speed did not slow down. I don't know if it's because I'm in a good mood. Red Lotus felt that her cultivation speed was even faster than before.
It's been a long time since Red Lotus has practiced the art of quenching the body. In fact, Honglian was also scared. Now she has cultivated to the second level of this exercise. I have already experienced the torment of life being worse than death. She even thought that it would be better to continue cultivating in peace like this. Her physical strength will also increase. It's just a little slower.
However, the red lotus is in this Jingjia Village. Unexpectedly heard a legend.
This legend. It was handed down from antiquity. Said in this place. There was once a flaming red one. A large bird with a multicolored phoenix tail. The wings of the great bird obscured the sky. It is as if it is one with heaven and earth.
Red Lotus listened to this. The first thing that comes to mind. It's Suzaku.
But how could Suzaku be in this place?
But it is associated with antiquity. It's not impossible.
If only Suzaku had ever appeared here. So does it mean that there is a good chance that there is something left by Suzaku here?
Red Lotus was curious. It seems that I still can't be lazy. She still needs to cultivate seriously. Because she has more important things to do. That is to break through the shackles of heaven and earth. Find a deeper world.
Red Lotus was curious. So I went to ask Jing Ke. But Jing Ke said that it was just a legend. Let Red Lotus not care too much.
But Red Lotus unexpectedly attaches great importance to it. So Jing Ke made an appointment with Red Lotus. Today, I went to the largest library hall in Jingjia Village.
It was the first time that Honglian had heard of such a place in Jingjia Village. Red Lotus learned from Jing Ke's mouth. The library hall is known only to the people of the village. The legend recorded in the library. All are the most comprehensive.
Red Lotus is also deeply touched. She's been here for a year. But I didn't know there was such a place. This is a testament to the secrecy of the library.
Jing Ke told Honglian. The library lobby. Except for the people of Jingjia Village. The rest of the people are not allowed to enter. Unless it's a very close relative. It may be specifically permitted.
Red Lotus also knew that it was very inappropriate for her to go. But she really wanted to know the legends recorded in the ancient books. What exactly is it like. Whatever it takes. She had to ask why. Now there is such an opportunity. Red Lotus can't let it go.
Jing Ke will help Red Lotus no matter what. Because she wants to get out of here. Follow Red Lotus to the outside to have a look. That's a little favor. She certainly wouldn't take it to heart. Besides, after a year of getting along. Jing Ke believes in the Red Lotus. She won't do anything harmful to the village. So Jing Ke decided to take the red lotus to the library to have a look.
This library is nothing to Jing Ke. After all, she is free to come and go. So I don't really care about it. Only Red Lotus is looking forward to it. Because in terms of the experience of a monk who has cultivated for hundreds of years. A library in every place. It's where the most important things are recorded.
Honglian went to Jing Ke's residence early. Jing Ke also got up early. Waiting for the red lotus.
The two of them went to the library in Jingjia Village together.
Red Lotus followed Jing Ke. Seven crutches. There are also two small woods along the way. No wonder I never found out. It turned out that this library was built so hidden. Red Lotus finally followed Jing Ke to a stone chamber underground. Only then did I find the legendary library hall.
Kuroko didn't follow them this time. He didn't know at this time. Because it's about the rules of the village. Naturally, the fewer people who know, the better.
Come to the library hall. Jing Ke chatted enthusiastically with the monk who was guarding the library. And the red lotus was introduced. Said to be a relative of his own family. I've been living in another village. This time I came with me. I want to find two exercises for quenching the body in the library.
That person and Jing Ke seemed to be old acquaintances. He didn't doubt Jing Ke's words. and let the two of them in.
Enter the library. Red Lotus was shocked in her heart. No wonder it's called the Library Hall. Here are the books. It's almost as much as a mountain. Red Lotus didn't know where to start for a while. It was the first time she had ever seen such a large collection of books. I didn't expect that there was such a place in Jingjia Village. It was a surprise. What's even more surprising is that. There wasn't a monk here. There are only two people, her and Jing Ke.
Jing Ke's expression was natural. It's like I'm used to it. Honglian didn't ask. After all, it's not a good thing to ask too much. That's a thing in someone's village. It's better for her to ask less.
"Red Lotus. Ancient books you want to see. It's all over there. You go over there and look for it. There should be. I'll take a look at other places by the way. ”
Jing Ke pointed in one direction in the library. Said to Red Lotus.
Red Lotus nodded. Follow the direction of Jing Ke's finger.
On top of the collection of books here. There is a bookmark that says "Ancient Books".
Red Lotus looked at the books. I want to find a record of Suzaku. There are so many books. Honglian watched it for a long time. In the end, it was in the back position. Found a book called "Ancient Suzaku".
Red Lotus stretched out her hand. He took out the book. Place it in the center of your eyebrows. Revealing Divine Sense. Start reading.
It is written in that book. It is nothing more than a description of the appearance of the ancient Vermilion Bird. And then there's that. There was once such a big bird in Jingjia Village. How exactly it came about. But there is no record. Red Lotus wants to know the most. Didn't see it either.
Red Lotus was a little disappointed and put the book back. She's also bored. Thinking that she had just entered this library not long ago. It's not worth it to go out so early. I finally got into this library. Let's look at the other accounts.
So Red Lotus began to quickly flip through the other books. All of them record the major events that have occurred in Jingjia Village over the past dynasties. It wasn't until a book called "Guardian Beast" was picked up by Red Lotus. Her speed was starting to slow down.
Red Lotus looked at the book. There are countless waves in my heart.
Documented. The creature known as the Guardian Beast. It turned out to be the shark with its mouth open all the time. I didn't expect the shark to live for so long. It has been there since antiquity. It's been so long. That shark was only a seventh-order. Red Lotus really wondered how it cultivated. It's stupid. It's still just a natural progression. Then its built-in lifespan is too long. It's really weird. Red Lotus couldn't figure it out. Just don't think about it. Immerse yourself in the book again.
It is stated in the book. Legendary. Outsiders have been to this village. And he has communicated with the people here about many situations in other worlds.
And then suddenly one day. These outsiders have all disappeared inexplicably. The only clue left. It's the shark. These people have said. Be sure to protect this shark with its mouth open. Because it is the only way to connect with the outside world.
That's just these words. The people in Jingjia Village didn't believe it. No one would have believed that sharks would have been the only gateway to the outside world. Such a statement is ridiculous.
But later. The people of Jingjia Village have tried countless ways to get out of here. Go and look for those who are in the mouth. Other worlds. But it was never found. They can't even get out of here.
That's when they set their sights on the shark. But nothing was found. As a result, these people have been guarding the shark, which is known as the gateway to the outside world. I hope that the younger generations will find something.
