Prequel: Secrets of Clear Water Castle Chapter 7: The Biography of the Turtle
"In order to get close to you, I will not hesitate to pass your brother, as long as I can watch you quietly from a distance, and if you die, I will also chase you to the ends of the earth until I find your body. ”
The brightly lit mansion, the dim candlelight flickering, illuminating the skin of the girl Saixue, through the turquoise ancient mirror on the dresser, the watery eyes, tender and sweet, but the exquisite face under this shallow smile, with hideous jealousy.
She gently flicked her sleeves, looking at the portrait placed on the stage in front of her, her green jade hand swept through every angular corner around him, her hand was so white and flawless, as if it was as pure as a beautiful work of art. The pair of slender and unadulterated hands were slightly cold, as if they had no temperature, which was chilling.
"Since you know my love, where am I worse than that Tang Wan?"
The man in the portrait saw that the man was extremely handsome, with a carved face with distinct facial features, and an angular face that was unusually handsome. The fair skin sets off the slightly ruddy lips, the handsome and prominent facial features, a pair of smiling faces, and a pure white, which is even more magnificent. staring at it, and not wanting to let go, it was Zhou Tianyuan.
A cold wind blew, and the faces of the people were cold and painful, and the soft light in the room was extinguished with a snort, and the girl was startled, and took out another candle from the drawer, and lit it again.
"Son, come with me. ”
Walking out of the hall, Zhou Yusheng wandered all the way and followed the footsteps of the middle-aged man.
The Dragon Palace of the West Sea is far less big than imagined, the whole Dragon Palace is like a huge labyrinth, connecting each area is a circular arch bridge that is not long, the arch bridge is blue throughout, and you can see the whole picture outside the Dragon Palace under your feet, there are no trees, no palace, only lanterns made of pearl foam are hung high.
Everything looks extremely bleak, the sea surface is moving and the sea is quiet, the bottom of the sea is dark but there is light, the bottom of the sea is still and there is the sound of fish, the eyes are full of tall and different shapes of the coral sea, because of the special natural environment, these coral reefs should be blue, but they are continuous dark brown, and the size is extremely large, lush, vibrant, like the sky trees on land.
There are all kinds of strange swimming fish slowly flowing under your feet, and among them is a group of strange pink fish that look fierce and abnormal, and the pink tail is particularly recognizable, swimming leisurely in the water like a black pancake. Feeds on invertebrates such as corals, anemones, starfish, sea urchins, etc. But unexpectedly, it didn't look as fierce as the fierce light in his eyes, and when he encountered danger, he quickly burrowed into the cave and erected his first dorsal fin.
"That's the glass cannonball fish, a fish species unique to our West Sea, but it was supposed to be silver, and when the West Sea moved here, with the influence of the Abyssal Land, it became the pink color it is today. Don't look at it as cowardly and abnormal now, when it appeared in groups, it was the killer weapon of other foreign races in the abyssal land of our Western Sea. The middle-aged man looked at Zhou Yusheng in a trance, laughed, and explained.
Zhou Yusheng came back to his senses and nodded, but his thoughts were attracted by those black strange fish hiding in the sand cave.
With towering cliffs and shallows on one side and an endless abyss on the other, these black monsters look fearless.
"This is a piranha, it usually does not appear here, but in the air layer below the Dragon Palace, and only when they reach the abyssal land when the season changes, they will come up and look for food for the winter. ”
"Are there any other races in this abyssal land?" Zhou Yusheng's face changed, and he asked a little breathlessly.
"Of course, this abyssal land is known as the place where the fallen races have refuge, and there are three or four hundred different races in this Western Sea alone, and these are still known, and there must be thousands of races large and small. When we came to this place, we were still the boss here, but with the passage of so many years, there are now seven clans, three places, and one place to stand in the abyssal land. Similarly, the middle-aged man's face was not good-looking, but he still replied without hesitation.
"What the hell is this abyssal place?" he watched as half of the sky was hidden in the gloom, and doubts poured out like bubbles.
Staring into the sky, the world covered in fog in my heart seems to slowly unveil its own.
"It's hard to say, when the old dragon king came here, he once said that this abyss land may be something similar to the Xuantian Spirit Treasure, a huge huge melting pot that can't be found, he has been looking for a way to balance this furnace for so many years, but in the past few years, with the abyss's mutations, our clans have found that the energy in the abyss has begun to be unbalanced. Some of the smaller races may not have discovered anything yet, but for those of us who know the secrets of the Abyss, the change is real. ”
He seemed to be talking to himself, but the footsteps he had left behind slowed more and more, and he suddenly looked into the sky, a place where no sunlight could be seen.
"That's why in the past few years, we have the idea of wanting to leave the abyssal land, and with the treasures of our clan, divination and gossip, we found that there is a trace of the Great Dao in your Qingshui territory, and everything can be moved. ”
He looked at Zhou Yusheng, and it was obvious that the obscure avenue he was talking about, the method that everything can move, was talking about him.
"If you still don't understand what's going on, I'll tell you again, the next devouring of the Abyssal Land will be a full hundred years later, and after this hundred years, maybe this Abyssal Land will no longer exist, of course, without the Abyssal Land, we can't do without it, we can only perish with the destruction of the Abyssal Land. ”
When it came to exterminating the clan, there was a momentary suddenness in his expression, but that understatement glance was just a blink of an eye, but there was not much sadness on his face, but he was very light and light, and he said lightly like seeing through life and death.
"And the person who is prophesied by the stupid mother-in-law is you, and the person who prophesied last time is indeed capable of taking on this responsibility, but he can certainly pass this hurdle, but with a normal man who is contaminated with seven emotions and six desires, how can he really put life and death and responsibility in the future. ”
Speaking of this, he glanced at Zhou Yusheng inexplicably with too many eyes, as if he wanted to see the shadow of the person back then through his appearance.
Zhou Yusheng still didn't speak, just looked down at the children who couldn't return home, in the mysterious deep sea, anxiously looking for the direction of home, they hid in the sand cave, it seemed that they were just trying to be peaceful for a while, to protect themselves, but they knew better than anyone that as long as the sea was no longer calm, their comfortable home would disappear with the sand and lose their home.
"In fact, before you came, the prophecy was already very bleak, if you didn't come, maybe this would be the last time you came here, and the Qingshui Realm, which has no Abyss Land vein, will be completely overthrown by the Great Jin after three years. ”
"If you've decided, turn right and you'll be in the library. He said calmly, and his footsteps continued to increase a few more times.
He glanced thoughtfully at the middle-aged man, then at the fish at his feet, and found a school of glass cannonball fish looking at him through the glass, staring at him with eyes like light bulbs.
He still didn't hesitate, and followed the middle-aged man through the last end of the Dragon Palace, turning to the inconspicuous hall on the side.
On the plaque, the dragon flies and the phoenix dances, the pen is exquisite and wonderful, and the vigorous and powerful "Library Pavilion" four characters are like dragons walking and snakes, soaring through the trees, and getting water.
There was an old man in front of the library pavilion, looking at the person who was about to die at his age, his cloudy eyes did not even have a little vitality, and he sat in front of the library in a daze, looking at Zhou Yusheng in front of him in a daze.
But the feeling he gave Zhou Yusheng was as calm as the sea, but in fact there was an undercurrent.
"Yu Wenwu, don't you know that this is the forbidden land of the West Sea? Bring a human race, are you not afraid that those old things will be angry with you, we elected you to become the new palace master of the West Sea, but we don't want you to do the thing of elbowing outward. ”
The old man who looked like a wooden man suddenly spoke, looking at the middle-aged man's eyes and weak body, his voice was full of energy.
He squirmed the drooping dead skin again, turned his head, and his eyes fell on Zhou Yusheng's body, seeing his body gradually rising up, but Mu Ne's body did not move, and there was a hint of instinctive vigilance in his eyes.
Zhou Yusheng only felt that his body was tight, his limbs seemed to be clamped by life, his internal organs were all tumbling, every pore on his body was erected, his immature face was distorted, and there were a few muffled sounds from time to time.
He felt that it was dark in front of him, and the whole person could no longer feel the strength of his limbs and collapsed to the ground.
"Midnight-sama, he's the one in the mouth of a stupid mother-in-law. The middle-aged man naturally knew how inhuman Zhou Yusheng was suffering at this time, but even if he was displeased, he didn't dare to say it.
He let go of the strength, and the middle-aged man without the restraint of strength quickly helped Zhou Yusheng up, pinched his hands together, and then quickly closed them, supported his soft body with both palms, pushed forward, and stuck it on Zhou Yusheng's back.
"You said that he was the prophecy person in the mouth of the stupid mother-in-law, hum, there is nothing special, the root bone is not bad, it seems that the spiritual vein has not been opened yet, if it is not a person from the human race, I really want to open his heavenly spirit cover to see, what is his spiritual vein. The old man took a deep look at Zhou Yusheng, then stopped looking at Zhou Yusheng, returned to his previous boring state, and said to himself.
"My lord, what if this child had the prophesied Soul White Pupil. The middle-aged man said coldly.
"What are you talking about!" his eyes burst into light, and he looked at Zhou Yusheng again in disbelief, and the next moment, there was only a disappearing figure and the old body that reappeared in front of him.
He stretched out his dry palm, trembling and stretched out to Zhou Yusheng's eyes, one hand swirling in front of Zhou Yusheng, and then, he opened the heavy eyelids, and saw the white pupils that made him unable to calm down anymore, white like a dead fish, but quietly flowing with a mysterious vitality.
"Soul White Pupil, I didn't expect that after so many years, I will finally see you again!" He looked at the pair of cold pupils, his body trembling violently, and his cloudy eyes actually had unstoppable tears falling, but the tears were as red as the sun, and when they fell to the ground, they turned into white smoke and dissipated like evaporation.
"Saved, saved!"
He laughed maniacally, and then ran out almost madly, and a burst of laughter that could not be dissipated in the sky for a long time disappeared in place.
After Zhou Yusheng gradually regained consciousness, his hands were unhurriedly withdrawn, looking at Zhou Yusheng in front of him, he took out a bottle of jade bottle from between his sleeves, and turned it over with one hand, and the things in the jade bottle slid down with a "bang" and fell on the palm of the middle-aged man.
The "thing" is round, the volume is very small, the whole body is pure white, there are several cracks on it that cannot be seen traces, and the blue light rises around the small and delicate body, just looking at it from a distance, you can feel a majestic vitality from the "thing".
He pinched the magic trick, his eyes suddenly flashed, the pill that was originally stationary, suddenly a wisp of clear qi crossed from above, he suddenly slapped his palm and grabbed the wisp of clear qi in his hand, and slowly lifted it in the air, and sent it to Zhou Yusheng's mouth against the backdrop of a light blue cyclone.
He continued to change the magic technique in his hand, and forcibly slapped the position of Zhou Yusheng's Ren Du second vein with an even more violent spiritual power fluctuation, Zhou Yusheng only felt a shock in his body, and the pill that had just been integrated into the internal organs and six internal organs was just touching the blood flowing in the meridians in his body, and it was easily covered with a faint frost.
When the blood in his limbs seemed to be coagulated, the middle-aged man's spiritual power also followed, a fiery and violent spiritual power, lawless and lawless from outside the spiritual veins of Zhou Yusheng, invading wildly, delaying the situation of the pill freezing for thousands of miles, and there was a faint feeling of snow melting and releasing ice, and the scenery and wind were restored.
The body is like two heavens of ice and fire, two forces that Zhou Yusheng can't bear to fight in his body, like a self-cooked person, he didn't feel any rejection in Zhou Yusheng's body, but as the other grows, the power in the pill is almost completely absorbed, and the middle-aged man felt through Zhou Yusheng's body that the power of the pill he was fighting for was gradually reduced, and he withdrew the endless spiritual power, sat aside, and waited for Zhou Yusheng to wake up with peace of mind.
"It seems that in the future, it will be on the children who have not opened the spiritual vein, and the power that can be adjusted seems to be a little smaller. The middle-aged man looked at Zhou Yusheng, who was unconscious, but his face was as ruddy as the sunset, and said with a smile.
"You're awake!"
I don't know how long it took, but a gentle sound came from my ears.
Zhou Yusheng suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the place where the sound was sounded, and in this magnificent hall, what caught his eye was a dazzling array of secret scrolls of exercises, jade slips, magic weapons.
The huge cabinets on both sides of the towering sky, each layer is placed with different colors of exercises and jade slips, lying there quietly, as if filled with various colors of light that will never dissipate.
At the top of the cabinet, he saw the deep sea reflected at his feet on the horizon, and the glass cannonball fish, piranhas, and different kinds of deep-sea fish he had seen before seemed to hang high in the sky, and even the scales and fish under him could be seen clearly through the sparkling waves reflected in the sky.
"These are all Sea Clan exercises, just like your Terran exercises, exercises that only Sea Clan monks can cultivate. But these exercises are not unusual, and almost every Sea Clan monk has dabbled in some degree. Only the exercises above the seventh level that you see are the true core of our West Sea. He looked at Zhou Yusheng, whose eyes were shining, and coughed a little funny, interrupting Zhou Yusheng's thoughts immersed in his own world.
"I'm sure you haven't seen those things yet. He suddenly pointed to the weapons outside the two cabinets, some of the eighteen types of weapons that were commonly found in the Terran territory, and the same was obviously used in the Sea Clan world.
For example, knives, spears, swords, halberds, axes, hooks, forks, whips, maces, hammers, grasps, borings, sticks, lances, sticks, crutches, and shooting stars.
It's just that compared to those monotonous workmanship, these weapons are more sophisticated and extremely beautiful, even if you don't use them, you can feel different from those elm heads outside, on the contrary, there is a lot of spirituality permeated.
"These things can't be seen in a small place like your Qingshui Realm, even if there are many monks who may have several different types of magic weapons, but magic weapons are very critical to the stimulation of spiritual power, and the manufacture of each magic weapon is very cumbersome, not just ordinary people can make it casually. ”
"Magic weapon?" Zhou Yusheng looked at him, but he didn't have too much puzzlement, after all, this kind of thing that can defend himself and be able to defeat the monk's body is recorded in great detail in the historical classics of the human race.
"But you have to know that what I want to show you is not comparable to these ordinary things, only this thing is the foundation for our West Sea to gain a foothold in this abyssal land. ”
He raised his chin slightly, his thin lips slightly opened, and his eyes were confused, not knowing what could focus it, as if heaven and earth seemed to him nothing more than that.
Zhou Yusheng followed the middle-aged man over, seeing that everything behind him was like a transparent mist, turning into countless bubbles behind him and blending into the blue deep sea, but he didn't have too much infatuation.
"Do you know the origin of the West Sea?" he asked with a solemn look in his eyes, walking in the deep blue sea.
"The West Sea, was founded by a genuine dragon three thousand years ago, and the other four palaces of Xuanyuan were in charge of every direction in the field of the Sea Clan, because you are located in the south of the Great Qi, so there will be the name of the West Sea, the Sea Clan Imperial Palace that should have been built under the Senseless Sea of the Great Qi, three hundred years ago, it suddenly changed, and the Terran was driven out of the senseless sea, and since then, Xuanyuan has no news of the West Sea. Zhou Yusheng replied.
"You know a lot. The middle-aged man looked at him meaningfully.
"I like to read the historical classics left by my predecessors when I have nothing to do, and in the chapter on the sea area, there are a few special ones written about the West Sea. Zhou Yusheng scratched his head and said embarrassedly.
"But the real dragon, I didn't expect that after so many years, there are still people who think that the old palace master is the head dragon. He laughed self-deprecatingly.
"In fact, the dragon should have been extinct as early as 30,000 years ago, the good thing that the old palace lord said was the collateral bloodline of the dragon clan, but after so many years, the bloodline has been diluted enough to prove that it is a new race, the body of the old palace master is Jiao, and there was indeed the bloodline of the dragon clan three thousand years ago, and it is precisely because of this that the East China Sea will promise us to be in charge of the West Sea. His face sank, and he said a little weakly.
"If it was as he said, the phantom of the dragon clan that the people saw back then, should the correct time be three thousand years ago!" he naturally didn't dare to say anything in front of him, so he could only muttered in his heart.
"But you have to know that the real dragon clan, whether it is ruins or ruins, after all, there are traces to follow, although we have never seen the whole picture of the real dragon back then, but we still found a treasure from a sea clan ruins back then, something that can be related to the future fate of our West Sea. ”
"An essay of the Xuanyuan Dragon Turtle that followed the side of the real dragon back then, claiming to live with heaven and earth. ”
He walked in front of him, a steep deep-sea cliff in front of him, a huge mountain with no end in sight, and the boundless deep sea seemed to have come to an end, where there was no sign of living creatures ever surviving.
It's just that the moment his voice suddenly amplified, the deep sea was like a volcanic eruption, and the mouths of the volcanic caves in the corals that were not easy to see were "poof" one after another, as if the bottle cap at the mouth of the cave could no longer withstand the pressure of boiling, and even spewed out several hot water columns, smashed on the mountain in front of them, and actually pierced out at a speed visible to the naked eye.
In an instant, the deep-sea wind and clouds changed and surged at an almost visible speed, and the water vapor rushed in, layer by layer like roaring and rushing waves, hitting the knife-like hill, picking up a few wisps of milky white mist, and a slender line was faintly visible in the mist.
Zhou Yusheng was taken aback
I only felt that this voice was like an awl piercing into my head, and it was unstable.
At the same time as the middle-aged man's eyes were blazing, in the depths of the distant darkness, a dazzling golden light suddenly rose up, gradually brightening, gradually thickening, and turning into an incomparably huge pillar of golden light behind it, roaring, straight into the sky, piercing into the abyss!
I saw that on the back of the abyss, accompanied by the splashing of mountain rocks, the hole that was pierced into a line, it seemed that something was fiercely formed inside, constantly hitting the stones inside, and from time to time there were several earth-shattering low and dull sounds like a wild bull.
From a distance, a golden light shot from the source, shooting into a long line at a very alarming speed, and at the moment when the thunder flashed and flickered, the darkness that covered the sky and the sun finally cleared the clouds, in which the thunderclouds rolled, and there was something faintly about to appear.
"Kid, take this piece of turtle biography. Wait for the day you open up the spiritual vein, and then open him!"
"You have to remember that when you hold the Xuanyuan Inheritance, your fate has also changed, and you are not only in charge of the secret of the last dragon of Xuanyuan, but the entire Western Sea is all up to you. ”
"If fate doesn't choose you, your fate and mine's fate will come to an end. You have to remember that since you have made up your mind to take this path, even if you give your life for the ideal, you will not hesitate to do it!"
That apocalyptic scene, as the middle-aged man's voice faded away, seeing the surrounding water vapor evaporating and rising, on the verge of boiling point, and the entire West Sea seemed to be unable to support this layer of turmoil, Zhou Yusheng sat there, and a clock line called "fate" behind him pulled out of the doomsday.
"If one day we are still destined to meet, I will definitely take you all over the West Sea. The biography of the turtle contains all the secrets of the founding of the West Sea, and if you die, destroy it. ”
"Turtle Biography!"
At the last moment when the abyss came, Zhou Yusheng stared at the black air mass that finally rolled into a ball, and at the end of the abyss's disappearance, like a flash in the pan, it was frozen in the golden pupils like the sun.
A black air mass enveloped a page of scrolls, and the cyan streamer hovered in mid-air like a waning moon.
"I promise you!"
Looking at the huge abyss in front of me, in an instant, thick smoke appeared in the low ground, cracks appeared in the line between water and sky in the sea level, a large amount of lava gushed out, and rushed out of the West Sea, the whole abyss seemed to have turned into a blazing fireball, and the insects, birds and beasts hiding in the abyss were screaming in despair.
