Chapter 12: The Gate to Heaven
As soon as it was dawn the next day, Nie Chen was woken up by the sound of noisy footsteps outside. Nie Chen, www.biquge.info Pen Fun Pavilion, probed out his spiritual sense and found that nearly 100 villagers had gathered in front of and behind the house, besieging the courtyard where he lived.
Xiao Jiu woke up early, saw Nie Chen open his eyes, and hurriedly stepped forward and asked in a low voice, "Master, are they trying to murder us?"
Nie Chen gave him a roll of the eyes, stretched out his hand and slapped it on his head: "When I have time, I will definitely knock your head open to see if it is paste inside." Murder you, murder you still have to wait until dawn?
Look at what they're holding in their hands. Are they, the common people, going to smash you to death with wine, berries, and eggs?"
"Uh, it seems to be the same. Xiao Jiu scratched his head.
"They must have come to thank you for killing them last night. You go out and have a look, don't take their stuff. Of course, those berries look quite tempting, they should be picked in the wild, so you can help me collect them. Nie Chen instructed, as for herself not being able to go out, suddenly there is a big living person, it will always feel a little weird.
Xiao Jiu pushed the door and walked out, and a voice of gratitude instantly sounded outside. Then those big girls and little daughters-in-law rushed forward and stuffed all kinds of things and items in their hands into Xiao Jiu's arms. Xiao Jiu remembered that time, and took those berries into his arms, wanting to return the rest of the things. But the crowd dispersed in a hurry, and their master was still found.
A quarter of an hour later, the crowd slowly dispersed, and Xiao Jiu walked in with a pile of things and a bitter face.
"Master, it's not that Xiao Jiu doesn't listen to your orders, it's that they are too enthusiastic, I can't push them off. ”
"Forget it, since it's their will, then you can take it. Nie Chen smiled and waved his hand casually.
Xiao Jiu sighed, took out the berries that Nie Chen asked for, and handed them to the master. Nie Chen picked one up, sniffed it, and then stuffed it into his mouth.
"En, it's delicious, it's so sweet! Xiao Jiu, you can taste it too. Nie Chen exclaimed. The taste of this berry is somewhat similar to that of modern cantaloupe, juicy and delicious, and the tongue is full of relish.
Xiao Jiu didn't move, standing aside with a bunch of things, his face was a little red. This made Nie Chen very strange, he stood up and took two steps closer and looked carefully.
"Lord, master, what's wrong with you... Seeing Nie Chen approaching, Xiao Jiu actually stumbled.
Nie Chen felt more and more that there was not much to do, and his gaze swept over his face, and finally fell on the pile of things in his hand.
"Is there something else mixed in here?" said as Nie Chen stretched out his hand to pull it twice.
Xiao Jiu's face turned even redder, and he hurriedly hid to the side: "No... ”
"Xiao Jiu, take it out yourself!" Nie Chen's face turned pale.
The corners of Xiao Jiu's mouth trembled, and he let go as if he was resigned to his fate. A bunch of things hula fell to the ground, scattering into a ball. Nie Chen glanced at it, but didn't find anything abnormal, and raised his eyes to look at Xiao Jiu with a puzzled expression.
"Did I say I didn't have anything a long time ago!" Xiao Jiu smiled and subconsciously rubbed his nose.
"Really?" Nie Chen's eyes flashed, and then he looked into his arms, "You took it out yourself, that's for your master and me to do it yourself?"
"Eh, me?" Xiao Jiu's face turned red directly. After hesitating for a while, he knew that he couldn't dodge it, so he had to reach into his arms and take out the contents of it.
Nie Chen was watching with interest, and dropped a berry in his mouth. But after seeing the object that Xiao Jiu took out, Nie Chen squirted out with a pop.
"Hahahaha・・・・・・ no wonder you are struggling, you just refuse to take things out, it turns out that there is a big girl who has taken a fancy to our family's Xiao Jiu. Hahaha・・・・・・. ”
Xiao Jiu took out something else, it was a girl's red belly pocket. Obviously, there are girls who have fallen in love with this handsome appearance and can get rid of demons.
Xiao Jiu's face turned red, and he looked a little helpless when he stood there. After a while, he came back to his senses and threw his belly pocket aside: "This is what she forced into me, and I didn't promise to accept it." ”
"Don't you want this, people are all in their hearts. Xiao Jiu, do you like her or not, do you want me, the master, to keep a matchmaker?" Nie Chen quipped.
Xiao Jiu shook his head: "I don't want it." My ambition is to cultivate immortals and attain the Tao and achieve the supreme path to immortals. One day, I will stand at the edge of the world, push open the giant gate to the sky, and become a god and ascend!"
"Well, the ambition is not small!" Nie Chen sighed, and then paused, "Tongtian Giant Gate, what is that?"
"The master doesn't know?" Xiao Jiu blinked.
Nie Chen threw him an eye knife: "Your master and I have just come to this world, where would you know so many twists and turns." Tell me, what is the Giant Gate?"
"Whether it is immortal cultivation, demon cultivation, or demon cultivation, there will eventually be a common end, that is, to become a god and ascend. And if you want to become a god, in addition to cultivating to break through, you also need to go through another baptism, that is, the gate to heaven. According to legend, the Gate of Heaven will automatically appear after cultivating to break through the Golden Immortal. If the monk cultivates enough, he can open the gate to heaven, and he can become a god in an instant.
If it fails, the Gate of Heaven will hide itself, and if you want to find it again, you will have to go through a lot of difficulties. Therefore, regardless of whether it is an immortal cultivator or a demon cultivator, after cultivating to reach the Golden Immortal, he will deliberately suppress his own realm. In order to strengthen his foundation, when the Gate of Heaven appears, he can make contributions in one fell swoop. ”
"I see, you have a lot of knowledge!" Nie Chen complimented.
Xiao Jiu shook his head: "This matter, as long as a cultivator knows a little, but there are only a handful of people in the whole world who can really see it." ”
"Forget it, that's too far away for us to consider. Nie Chen shook his head, retracted his thoughts, and ordered, "It's not too early, we should be on our way." ”
"Master, there is one more thing that needs to be mastered. Xiao Jiu hurriedly spoke.
"What?"
Xiao Jiu rubbed his hands: "The village chief also came just now, and he said that he thanked me for helping them get rid of the demons, and saw that I was going to go on a long trip, so he gave us a carriage." But don't worry, I didn't say yes right away. ”
Nie Chen snorted: "Your careful thoughts, you think I don't know." But you have just done a good deed, and this carriage should be your reward, and you can accept it. But you can't ask for other people's things in vain, you just see if there is a method suitable for mortal cultivation, or a recipe that can prolong life, and give him one or two in exchange. ”
"I know the master, I'll arrange it. While speaking, Xiao Jiuyi ran out.
With the carriage, the speed was much faster, and after half a month, it had come to the foot of the Tianyun Gate. Looking at the majestic mountain in front of him, Nie Chen suddenly felt a sense of inferiority. It seems that before this mountain, he is an insignificant ant, an inconspicuous dust.
Shaking his head, Nie Chen put these negative emotions behind him and took Xiao Jiu to step up the mountain. This half-month of cultivation has made her cultivation go to another level, and she has already reached the fifth level of qi refining. Correspondingly, the time for the Transformation Decision to last has reached nearly seven days. And the interval has been shortened to six hours.
Casting it once every seven days, with an interval of six hours in between, didn't have much impact on Nie Chen.
After walking back and forth on the mountain road for half a day, the two barely walked half the way, and they were already tired and out of breath. The location of the Cloud Gate is very strange this day, there seems to be the power to suppress cultivation here, and the two of them are completely supported by physical strength when they move forward.
Nie Chen held his waist, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and pointed to a big stone in front of him: "Xiao Jiu, let's rest and then go." ”
Xiao Jiu nodded, and just as he was about to step closer, he heard a cold female voice not far away.
"Anyone trespassing on Tianyun Gate, you know that this is a capital crime. ”
