Chapter 4 Platinum City

There is a branch vein thousands of miles east of the Broken Soul Mountain Range, although it is a branch vein, it is tens of thousands of miles long, it is a north-south direction, parallel to the main vein, and it is the natural barrier of the Jinling Empire to resist the spirit beasts of the Broken Soul Mountain Range. There is a gap of hundreds of zhang wide in the center of the www.biquge.info branch vein of the pen %fun %pavilion, looking down from the extremely high place, the gap is embedded in the branch vein like a line, and the branch vein is divided into two, which is named after the gap by the imperial people. Every few decades, the Broken Soul Mountain Range will break out a beast tide, the beast tide enters the empire through a line of heaven and wreaks havoc, resulting in the destruction of life, in order to resist the beast tide, thousands of years ago, the empire built a platinum city in a line of heaven, and sent heavy troops to eliminate the beast plague.

There are countless spirit beasts in the Broken Soul Mountain Range, and there is a spirit pill in the spirit beast's body, the spirit pill can not only be used for medicinal purposes, but also some special spirit pills can also be directly swallowed to improve the cultivation of spiritual cultivation, so the spirit pill is expensive, and the spirit medicine is everywhere in the mountains, and there are countless teams willing to enter the adventure, as time goes by, the platinum city is becoming more and more prosperous, and now, it is the first male city in the western part of the empire, and even the largest sect in the empire has a branch here.

There was a carriage driving on the official road from the Broken Soul Mountain Range into the Platinum City, and the black horse pulling the carriage was tall, with thick and powerful limbs, and a black fur with dark and shiny skin, and a divine horse, but when he got closer, the black horse's legs were like chaff, and his mouth was foaming at the mouth, as if he had been greatly frightened, and it took half a day to take a small step. The old man who was driving the car had gray hair, cloudy eyes, and leaned weakly on the carriage with a leather whip in his hand.

In the car, a **** was sitting in a precarious position, dressed in dark blue clothes, with fair skin, especially a pair of Danfeng eyes that were bright and dignified, and obviously had an extraordinary identity. Next to the beautiful woman sat a teenage little girl, the little girl was dressed in red, her facial features were exquisite, her face was fifty percent similar to the beauty, but it was more beautiful, and the same attractive pair of big Danfeng eyes looked left and right, revealing a bit of eccentric color.

"Mother, why don't you let Grandpa Hua take us directly to Platinum City, we have to take a carriage, we have walked for more than a month to walk such a small distance, this is already the tenth horse, the other horses can't hold out for a few days, I'm afraid this one won't last long!" The little girl muttered and said boredly.

looked at her daughter kindly, and **** said softly: "Jiu'er, hold on a little longer, it's coming soon!" ”

Suddenly, the two men in the carriage felt the carriage stop. "Uncle Hua, what's wrong?" The middle-aged beauty showed a puzzled look and asked the old man who was driving. "Madame, there is a child lying in the middle of the road, blocking the carriage," replied the old man. "I'll come out and have a look" **** pulled the curtain, walked out of the car, and saw a child lying face down in the middle of the road.

After getting out of the carriage, **** slowly came to the child's side. "Huh!" With a soft sigh, the child actually gave her a familiar feeling.

"Mother, what's wrong?" Jiu'er didn't know when she came to ****'s side.

"It's fine!" said, but with doubts in his heart, he picked up the little boy on the ground. The little boy looked to be eleven or twelve years old, with a delicate face and a thin figure, and a necklace around his neck, which had a small white ball at one end, and a small black hole in the middle of the ball, and the whole small round ball was like an eye, and it was very eye-catching. Although the little boy had his eyes closed, he was breathing evenly, and his body should be fine, but he passed out for some unknown reason.

This little boy is naturally Gu Chen, and after the remnant soul of the phoenix spirit passed the Phoenix Nirvana Sutra to him, he used his great magical powers to send him here from inside Wushan.

Jiu'er's eyes had been staring at Gu Chen curiously, and she secretly said in her heart: "This little boy is so beautiful!" Immediately seeing her mother staring at her with a smile, Jiu'er's face turned red and she hurriedly turned her head, but Yu Guang still glanced at the little boy from time to time, "It shouldn't be as beautiful as me!" Jiu'er thought beautifully.

After picking up Gu Chen, the familiar feeling became stronger and stronger, and the doubts in her heart were even worse, but she didn't say anything and returned to the car with Gu Chen in her arms. "Let's wait until Platinum City," **** thought to himself.

Qizong is the largest sect in the Jinling Empire, with a long heritage, huge power, and strong people under the sect, it is a holy place in the minds of the imperial people, and countless imperial people take it as the highest honor to enter the Qizong sect. And five days later, it is the day when the Platinum City Branch of the Instrument Sect recruits disciples once a year, and countless people come from all directions, hoping to worship under the Instrument Sect, **** to come to the Platinum City with her daughter, and also let Jiu'er sign up for the entrance assessment of the Instrument Sect.

Two days later, **** took Jiu'er and Gu Chen to the outside of the platinum city, looked up, the city wall was about fifty or sixty zhang high, hundreds of zhang long, the whole body was piled up by a kind of white stone, and the stone also showed a faint golden light, as if it was hard metal, giving people a sense of indestructibility. This stone is called platinum stone, which is harder than ordinary black iron, in order to resist the impact of the beast tide, hence the name of platinum city. On both sides of the hundreds of zhang long city wall are the stone walls of a line of sky, and if the spirit beast wants to pass a line of sky, it must destroy the city wall.

Platinum City has four city gates in the southeast, northwest and northwest, facing the direction of the first line of heaven is the west gate, only to see the west gate five zhang high, ten zhang wide, although it has not been attacked by the beast tide for more than ten years, the west gate is guarded by heavy soldiers, and the city gate that enters the city is guarded very strictly.

When the carriage reached the city gate, it was stopped by the generals defending the city. "Get out of the car and accept the inspection" The general guarding the city held his spear and shouted in a commanding tone, and the old man who was driving Uncle Hua raised his head, and his cloudy eyes glanced at the general guarding the city lightly, and the aura was put away. Others can't feel it, but the general feels it, he feels that the person standing in front of him is not an old man, but a fierce beast, a terrible beast that chooses people to eat, that majestic spiritual power makes the general who guards the city feel like a boat in the ocean, as long as the old man is willing, he will be drowned by the huge waves at any time, the heart of the general defending the city trembles, what a terrible old man!

The face of the general defending the city showed a respectful look: "Senior, please come in!" Then he got out of the way, and at the same time secretly said in his heart: "Such a strong person is just driving for people, where is the sacredness in the car?" The old man regained his languid appearance, leaned back on the carriage, flicked the leather whip in his hand, and slapped it on the horse's hips, and the black horse, whose legs were like chaff, stepped into the city with trembling steps.

There are all kinds of tall buildings on both sides of the road dozens of zhang wide in the city, and the materials used in both roads and buildings are platinum stones, and the faint metallic luster shining in the white makes the platinum city have a sense of solemnity in the magnificent and solemn, so that all the people who enter the city for the first time will have a sigh in their hearts, "this momentum alone is worthy of being the largest city in the west."

The branch of the Qizong is located in the north of the city, and the old man drove for five hours, and did not arrive in the north of the city until dark, which shows the size of the platinum city. The further north you go, the more people there are, and most of them are elders with one or two children, obviously, they are all people who come from all over the world to sign up for the entrance examination of the Instrument Sect.

Since there were still three days to go before the registration time, **** took Jiu'er, holding Gu Chen, who was still in a coma, and found a luxurious inn with the old man who was driving, and stayed temporarily.

A pair of eyes looked at Gu Chen lying on the bed, Jiu'er asked, "Mother, it's been two days, why hasn't he woken up yet?" **** eyebrows frowned slightly: "Mother is not sure, although he is a little emaciated, but breathing evenly, this situation is not like being sick, but like falling into some kind of sleep, it should be fine", at the same time, I was puzzled, that familiar feeling has been haunting my heart, but I don't know where it came from.

The sleeping Gu Chen naturally didn't know that he had come to the Platinum City, he only felt that he had a dream, the dream was full of flames, he was in the flames, but the flames did not burn him, but made him feel warm and comfortable, there were two pages of scriptures floating in the flames, shining with a dazzling golden light, Gu Chen stared at the scriptures for a while, only to feel that his eyes hurt, as if he was going blind, so frightened that he quickly turned his head.

An old voice suddenly sounded in Gu Chen's mind: "This is a fragment of the Phoenix Nirvana Sutra of my clan, one page is the nine turns of the practice of Nirvana, and the other page is the body method of leisurely travel. All the spirits in the world can be cultivated, but the cultivation is different, and my Phoenix Holy Beast clan, thanks to the grace of God, cultivates the law of immortality, and is reborn in Nirvana. Then, the ancestors created the Phoenix Nirvana Sutra, one death and one life for one turn, nine turns full, immortal and indestructible. How much you can comprehend these two pages depends on your own creation......"

The ethereal voice spread farther and farther until it disappeared, and then, Gu Chen opened his eyes. There was darkness in front of him, Gu Chen felt that his head was confused, and he opened his mouth and shouted softly, "Mother......s".

Squeak!

The door slowly opened, a figure holding a candle, slowly walked in, the candle light was dim, only a woman's figure could be vaguely seen, the figure used the candle in his hand to light the other candles in the room one after another, and waited until the light slowly brightened, Gu Chen saw clearly that the person who came was a middle-aged woman, dressed in dark blue clothes, with fair skin, especially a pair of Danfeng eyes. I saw the woman with a gentle smile on her face and light steps, walking towards him.

"Who are you?" Gu Chen asked curiously. "You can call me Aunt Feng, you were unconscious on the side of the road two days ago, I brought you here, what's your name?" "My name is Gu Chen, where is this?" "This is Platinum City, Gu Chen, how old are you? What about your parents? Why did you faint on the side of the road" "I'm eleven years old this year, and I haven't seen my father since I was a child, as for my mother's ......" Thinking of his mother, Gu Chen's eyes began to redden, and tears swirled in his eyes, but Gu Chen held back, his small mouth kept trembling, because he was too hard, and his teeth bit his lips and bled and he still didn't know. Gu Chen was in a coma for a year, but he was actually twelve years old.

Looking at his painful appearance, Aunt Feng only felt a sour heart, it seemed that she was also a child with a hard life, and at the same time, the familiarity with the cordial feeling became stronger and stronger, and she said distressedly, "Don't be afraid, child, Aunt Feng will be your mother in the future, cry if you want to cry, don't hold it in your heart." "I don't cry, I want to avenge my mother." said that he didn't cry, but there was already a cry in his voice, after all, he was just a teenager.

"You've been in a coma for two days, you must be hungry, you lie down first, Aunt Feng will get you some porridge" said, and the **** called Aunt Feng got up and left.

Gu Chen's head was full of the scene of his mother's self-deprivation, tears swirled in his eyes, his body kept trembling, but he didn't let himself cry, his two hands were clenched into fists, because he was too hard, his nails sank into the flesh, and blood flowed out, dyeing the quilt under him red.
