Chapter 40: Lord of the Hall of Eagles

It is a long way to go from Yuqiao Village to Eagle Peak, Uncle Ghost and Porcelain are only in the daytime, they must rest after the sun goes down, even if people are not tired, the pterosaur can not stand it, fortunately, there are occasionally a few lonely villas found on the way, although it is a poor country, it is also a place to rest and avoid the corpse. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

As soon as Uncle Ghost settled, he gave the villagers a little silver, and the villagers hurriedly prepared food and bed, and soon they were fine. Uncle Ghost went to rest when he was full, and at the same time instructed Porcelain to rest early and continue to hurry tomorrow. Porcelain is naturally unhappy in his heart, he has always liked to go wherever to play, and now there is so much time for a month, there is no need to rush to hurry, but he knows that Uncle Ghost's temperament has always been like this, and he doesn't like to delay everything, and he thought about this remote village, in addition to the native earth house, it is poultry and livestock, and the language is not understood, not to mention playing, it is difficult to even find someone to chat a few words, so he also followed the ghost uncle to sleep early after filling his stomach, and got up before dawn the next day.

After six or seven days of traveling, the mountains are now gradually turning from emerald green to tan. There were no villages to be seen for a long time, and the sun was about to set at this time, but neither Porcelain nor Uncle Oni was disturbed by this, because they knew that they were about to arrive just by looking at the change in the color of the forest on the ground. Sure enough, it didn't take long to see in the distance that was dyed red by the setting sun, and there were vaguely three or four mountain peaks standing majestically, piercing the clouds, and sitting in the undulating mountains, just like standing tall and flocky.

That's Eagle Peak!

When he saw this, he immediately became excited, and slapped the back of the pterodactyl's neck sharply, and flew away, and when he got closer, he could see that there were four peaks, each of different heights, the shortest one was less than a third of the highest one, and the cliffs in the upper part of the peaks were full of buildings.

At this time, there are more than a dozen pterosaurs circling and patrolling around the peaks, these pterosaurs are not small, and there is a bed crossbow on each side of the shoulder, and there is a person standing in each bed crossbow, who is responsible for archery; There is also a person riding on the dragon's head, who is responsible for driving, and these eagles are all patrolling.

Seeing that someone had broken in at this time, they drove the dragon to intercept it, and when they saw that it was the deputy hall master, they all squatted down and shouted, "Welcome back to the deputy hall master!" Porcelain stretched out his hands and lifted them up, and the patrol stabbed flattened, and then flew to his left and right escorts.

The porcelain flew towards the highest peak and landed in the square near the peak. This square is next to a vertical cliff, in the shape of an irregular bow, at a glance it is clear that the peak has been chiseled off a third of the formation, and the cliff is embossed with huge figures, all of them holding weapons, but each face has a different expression, different joy, anger and sorrow; The middle of the cliff is about three zhang wide, it is a straight up staircase, and there is a large stone tablet in the center of the square where the staircase is facing, and the three characters of Eagle Xiaotai are engraved on it; On the other side of the square opposite the cliff is the Peak Cliff, which is flanked by several watchtowers. Although this square is inferiorly arc-shaped, it is as large as a porcelain pterosaur, and it is only like a butterfly landing on a plantain leaf.

The eagle disciples who were guarding around the eagle platform saw the return of the deputy hall master, and they all immediately knelt down to greet them, the porcelain had been flying for a day, and they were exhausted, and they were not in the mood to let them calm down, so they just turned around and said to the ghost uncle: "I'm so tired, I won't go to see her." Then he mounted the pterodactyl and flew down to another mountain.

Uncle Ghost knew that he was pampered, and the relationship between the brother and sister had not been good, so he didn't say anything, raised his hand to let the eagle disciple flatten, and then walked around the stone tablet and walked towards the stairs, he looked up, and there was a pair of hundred-character couplets engraved on the cliffs on both sides of the staircase, and the right side was: Heaven and earth change, rise and fall, follow nothing more than the sunset, the full moon, the lack of stars, the stars and the stars, the mountains are easy to mess, the sun is clear, the clouds are mixed, the darkness is mixed, and the wind blows a thousand rains, how to go to the desolation and ambition? On the left is: good and evil kill, victory and defeat, all the power, the right to gain power, the loss of wealth, the gathering of wealth, the reputation of the clear reputation, the turbidity of the years, the years are difficult to look back, love and hate, envy, revenge, a sword rust, two fists, how to come, three cups of wine, and pride?

He couldn't remember exactly how he felt when he wrote this couplet, but every time he passed by, a flood of fragmentary memories would flood him up. He quickened his pace, walked quickly through the couplet, and after a dozen or so steps inside, he stepped up the stairs and walked up, looking at the sky at this time, the scene was truly a ray of sky. Although the sky is dyed red by the sunset, the cliff is too high for the light to shine on the stairs, so even if there are torches on both sides of the stairs, it still feels extremely cold.

At regular intervals, a pair of eagle disciples stood on both sides of the stairs, and when they saw Uncle Ghost, they all bowed their heads to show respect. Because he was in a hurry all day, and there was no rest on the way to fill his stomach and fill his water, at this time Uncle Ghost was tired, thirsty and hungry, and after walking for a long time, he was even more out of breath, he couldn't help but feel dizzy, his body shook a little, his feet were not steady, and he almost fell. The eagle apprentice next to him saw it, and hurriedly walked over to support it, Uncle Ghost gently pushed his palm to signal that he didn't need to help, and then continued to walk up, he couldn't help but sigh, he had used that spell many times before, and every time he got old for three years, he didn't feel any changes in his body, and now he obviously felt that his body had changed, he had climbed this long ladder so many times, and he had never felt so powerless.

After climbing for a long time, I finally reached the top of this long ladder, and a small lake appeared in front of me, and there was a golden statue in the center of the lake, which was cast by a bald eagle with its wings soaring. Both sides of the small lake are squares, much wider than the eagle platform, and behind the small lake is a staircase, leading to the high platform, much higher than the lake, there is a heavy eaves hall built on the platform, behind the palace, there is a hill, there are buildings on the mountain.

Uncle Ghost walked around the small lake to the heavy eaves hall behind. As soon as he bypassed, an eagle disciple came up to receive him, and when he saw Uncle Ghost, he first bowed, and then turned around and shouted to the palace: "Ghost--begging to see-" As soon as the words fell, the same shout sounded in the hall: "Ghost--begging to see--" Uncle Ghost asked, "Has the twilight discussion passed?" The man turned around and bowed his head and replied, "The twilight discussion has long passed, and the hall master has returned to the Eagle Palace." Uncle Ghost was a little disappointed when he heard this, he knew that after the hall master returned to the palace, it would be difficult to ask to see him.

After a while, suddenly a shout came from the palace: "See-" Uncle Ghost immediately walked to the palace, and after climbing a number of steps, he finally came to the front of the hall, and looked up, the forehead of the hall was inlaid with the word Eagle Palace. He rested for a moment, and then walked in, nodding in honor when the eagle disciples saw him along the way.

Out of the Eagle Palace, it didn't take long to arrive at the gate of the Eagle Palace, and a maid came up to receive her, and after she bowed, she led the ghost uncle in.

Uncle Ghost followed for a long time, and came to the door of a tower by the pool in the middle of the mountainside, which was closed at this time. The maid turned around and said to Uncle Ghost, "The hall master is practicing inside. She said this and stepped back gently. Uncle Ghost coughed lightly, and then said, "Ghost see the hall master." He said and listened carefully, and after a while, a female voice came from inside: "What's the urgency?" Uncle Ghost hurriedly replied: "It's the Soul Shifting Venerable, I'm afraid he won't be able to live, his subordinates are incompetent, and he can't protect his life, so I beg the hall master to forgive him." ”

After a little silence, words came from inside: "Uncle Ghost, this is not the Eagle Palace, there is no need to be restrained, it is better for us to talk with the feelings of uncle and nephew." Uncle Ghost listened and said, "Okay." Only then did he raise his head, and then said, "That's right, I was about to bring the Soul Shifting Venerable back, but unexpectedly, he was seriously injured and his life was hanging by a thread, and by the time I sent him to the Lady of the Medicine Immortal Xue Chu, he had already lost his breath. However, Xue Chu's mother-in-law said that she could still save him, and asked me to pick him up in a month, and when it happened suddenly, I will come back to report to you first, and then I will go to ...... him again" Before the words were finished, an angry voice came from inside the tower: "Who told you to take him back?" I'm just letting you find him! ”

Uncle Ghost was anxious when he heard this, and asked, "But he is almost running out of oil, and we have to ...... it as soon as possible." If he is saved, you can send him back to the Iron City. Uncle Ghost was shocked and asked, "What?" Send him back again? But ......before he could finish speaking, a hurried word came from inside: "Send it back!" I've got my own arrangement! ”
