Chapter 14: White-bearded Li Qing
In the early morning, the color of the original gray sky haze, but at this time it is already blood red, slowly flowing, like the rock of the cliff, so cold that it makes people's hearts palpitate, the bare cliff is full of small but dense scratches, it can be seen that there are many beasts here, and there is a simple house with grass and trees on the edge of the cliff, there is a small wooden fence outside the grass house in a circle, and there is a peach tree in the magnolia, and the golden monkey under the peach tree is holding the peach and eating happily.

"Hey, this is in trouble." A white-bearded old man shook his head and sighed, looking at Bai Xingyu on the bed with his eyes closed. The white-bearded old man walked back and forth, his hands kept beating each other, "It's over, those old ghosts have passed away, leaving me alone to guard this cliff, now it's okay, the town guards the town, and if you don't pay attention to this splash child, you will break in." After the white-bearded old man finished speaking, he seemed to think of something again, staring at Bai Xingyu with strange eyes, and muttered, "How did this doll enter the cave, it's even more fine." The white-bearded old man glanced at the golden monkey outside the cave, and thought to himself that there are hundreds of species of monkeys on the Haoyue Road, but there are only three kinds of monkeys that can really enter the cave without being killed by the breath of the evil sword, "Soul Eater Monkey", the Soul Eater Monkey is born with a strong demonic nature, the upper can reach the sky, the lower can reach the ground, and like to devour souls, which is an extremely rare category. The white-bearded old man couldn't help but look at the golden monkey outside the door again, and then shook his head, "Well, it's definitely not." After speaking, he lowered his head and pondered, "Lin Monkey", and then shook his head again, the whole body of the Lin Monkey was covered with hard brown scales, not to mention the infinite strength, and he could also control the power of the five elements elementally, and he could use the heaven and earth for his own use, and his temperament was uncertain. The white-bearded old man's eyes lit up immediately, and he was said to have been transformed by the power of the origin of the fire system, and he knew astronomy, geography, and was very intelligent. "But this monkey doesn't look like it, it's no different from an ordinary stone spirit monkey, but the stone spirit monkey definitely can't withstand the breath of the evil sword." After sighing, he didn't bother to think about it, and began to look Bai Xingyu up and down on the bed, "It's this doll that the old man can't figure out." After speaking, he stretched out his dry flat palm and put it on Bai Xingyu's head, only to see a cyan dark energy slowly coming from the dry flat palm, the white-bearded old man slowly closed his eyes, and the cyan dark energy swam in Bai Xingyu's body, when the cyan dark energy wanted to enter Bai Xingyu's veins to find out, but it was shocked out by a black air current. Only then did the white-bearded old man withdraw his palm, and said with a solemn face, "I see."
"Father, mother, ah, don't", Bai Xingyu closed his eyes tightly and touched his mouth, "Brother, brother, where are you, brother". The voice became quieter and quieter, and a tear welled up from the closed eyes, slowly sliding down his cheeks.
Seeing this, the white-bearded old man shook his head and sighed, "Hey, fate, but it is already destined in the dark." The white-bearded old man seems to have long looked down on worldly things.
After eating peaches outside the door, the golden monkey jumping left and right around the edge of the peach tree immediately bounced in after hearing the sound of Bai Xingyu in the house, lying on the side of Bai Xingyu's head, his eyes looked at the white-bearded old man, and then stared at Bai Xingyu's long unkempt hair, and after looking left and right, he stretched out his fluffy hands to find something in Bai Xingyu's hair.
Bai Xingyu felt his hair turn up and down, and slowly opened his eyes, and what came into view was a golden monkey with a fluffy face, and it was catching lice in Bai Xingyu's hair at this time. After Bai Xingyu pushed away the golden monkey, he looked beside him in a blink of an eye, and saw an old man wearing a bird feather hat standing, with small eyes, a big nose, and a long beard as white as his hair.
"Uncle, you are". Bai Xingyu looked dazed, he was still in the dark cave just now, and he saw a snow-red eye. Now when I wake up, I'm in this thatched hut.
"Me"! After the white-bearded old man responded, he clenched his fist and raised his hand to his mouth, "cough cough", and said proudly: "The first person in the famous imperial law of the Creation Empire, Li Qing..."! After speaking, he glanced at Bai Xingyu with a squint out of the corner of his eyes, but unexpectedly, this splash boy just said "oh", with a disappointed face, and then said seriously: "What are you doing in the cave sealed by me?"
"I, I don't want to, I was chased by some big bugs with many legs, and I ended up running in." Bai Xingyu replied like a child who had done something wrong, as if he had destroyed someone else's things.
"The bug with a lot of legs you're talking about is a centipede at the bottom of the valley, and it usually takes three to five years to break through the ground to find food, and you're really unlucky, but the rocks that you see everywhere you see at the bottom of the valley are actually the centipedes coming in and out." Li Qing touched his white beard, glared at Bai Xingyu again, and continued, "It's okay now, you broke the seal, and there will be a big mess." After speaking, Li Qing pointed to the sky outside the door.
Bai Xingyu followed Li Qing's boring hand and looked out of the door, only to see that the sky was blood-red, as if he couldn't see his head at a glance. "How, how can this be"? Bai Xingyu looked surprised, he had never seen blood red in the sky since he was a child.
"It's not that you broke the seal", Li Qing put his hands behind his back, his straight body didn't seem to be able to show his age, and he turned his back to Bai Xingyu and continued, "What is sealed is a sword, some people call it a magic sword, some people call it an evil sword, no matter what it is called, in fact, its real name is rarely known."
"Do you know what it's called, uncle?" Bai Xingyu also looked curious when he heard this.
Li Qing turned his head and smiled, "Aropers"!
"Aroleus"? Bai Xingyu shook his head.
"Aroleus, in fact, is called an evil devil in ancient texts, and simply put, a demon." Li Qing turned his head to look at the sky again, as if recalling something, and continued, "It is recorded in ancient books that at the beginning of all things, that is, more than three hundred years ago, there was a powerful empire, and at that time people and monsters were still in an era of peace and peace, but one night, a meteor appeared in the sky and fell, and people and beasts did not think so, and on the second day, people who got up early saw that the sky was blood-red, and they didn't understand what was going on, but from that day on, all humans and beasts in the empire disappeared overnight. All the buildings have been preserved intact. Later, many Eight Heavenly Masters who escaped the catastrophe gathered around to study, only to understand what was going on, it turned out that when all things were growing, our Haoyue Road was full of source energy, which was of great benefit to cultivators, so there were many, many masters at that time, but since the birth of Aroles, he frantically absorbed the source qi where it was, and even devoured it with all the creatures around him for three hundred and sixty-five days, making the source qi on the Haoyue Road dilute to one ten-ten-millionth, This also leads to the fact that the cultivation of future generations is generally difficult to cross after the second to four heavens. The damage it has brought to the past empire and the current Haoyue Road is unimaginable, and I am one of the survivors at the beginning."
After Li Qing sighed, his voice was slightly hoarse, and he continued: "At that time, we summoned one hundred and eight masters of the Eight Heavens, two masters of the Nine Heavens, and when the sword of Aropius was refining the power that was devoured, we formed the current Falling Cliff Valley after a joint blow above the sky, and the three iron bridges above the Falling Cliff Valley were actually the source power chains built by all of us, in order to seal it at the bottom of the valley."
"Oh, it turns out that the three bridges at the back door of my house are the source power chains you built, no wonder my father said that they were all made naturally." At the mention of his father, Bai Xingyu's face darkened again.
Li Qing also sensed the loss in Bai Xingyu's heart, and then changed the topic and continued, "Well, when all of us entered the valley floor and found the Aropus in the rock, just as we joined forces, it suddenly roared, and there were bursts of black light on the sword, and suddenly the black light increased hundredfold, extending to the soles of everyone's feet, and everyone felt bad, and threw the five-colored stone prepared before into the surrounding of Aropus to form a five-light array, and forcibly dragged it into the ground, that is, at this moment, The black light under everyone's feet began to greedily devour everyone's cultivation." Li Qing began to sweat on his forehead when he said this, as if everything back then was in front of him, and scenes appeared in front of him again! "Li Qing, Li Qing, what are you still stunned, hurry up and seal it", the companion's voice did not fall, and his body gradually shrank, after he screamed, his body was assimilated by the black light, and only the clothes on his body fell from the air, Li Qing looked at everything in front of him blankly, and one companion after another was assimilated by the black gas like the person just now until it dissipated.
Li Qing calmed down, pulled out of his memories, stretched out his dry hands, smiled helplessly, and said to Bai Xingyu, "Look at these hands."
Bai Xingyu looked at Li Qing with a puzzled expression, Li Qing smiled, put down his hands and said with a bitter face, "In fact, as early as after the Five Heavens, the lifespan will also increase by a hundred years, and it is not easy for my face to look old, and I, who have only been more than three hundred years, also look old."
"That, that, what's going on?" Bai Xingyu took a step back with some fear, and wanted to be tripped by the edge of the bed and sat down directly on the bed, pressing one hand on the fluffy thing, Bai Xingyu looked back, it turned out that his palm was pressed on the tail of the golden little monkey, and he saw it lying on the edge of the bed and falling asleep, without any reaction.
