Chapter VII: The Assembly of the Ancient Building
Dongliu Town is located in the mountains, not too developed town, cicadas buzzing in the summer night, frogs croaking, the night breeze is slightly but with a hint of coolness, Su Ling couldn't help but shiver, rubbed his arms, and knew that he would bring a piece of clothes out. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Looking up at the moon, which had remained unchanged in the shape of a silver platter, the stars around her were obscured by the gray night clouds, revealing only the moon, and she glanced at Shizuji, who was walking in front.
"Haven't you arrived yet?"
When this person heard this, he turned around and saw Su Ling holding his shoulders with his hands, his expression was slightly tight, and he took off his coat and threw it away!
"If you keep going, it's coming soon."
Su Ling took the black coat that drew a graceful arc from the air, and he was also stunned, but he didn't expect this person to be a real gentleman, so he put it on politely and directly, muttering in his mouth: "That's what you said twenty minutes ago..."
Xu was because the night was too quiet, this soft murmur was captured by the latter, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a faint smile, very shallow and charming, but he didn't look back.
"This assembly is held once every three years, each time the location is different, and the personnel are not necessarily, the only unified condition is that it is selected in the place where the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is most concentrated, and the time and place are needed. This year, the place where the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is most concentrated is the Moonstone Valley, and today of this month is its most vigorous day. It's far away, but the opportunity is rare, and it's worth it to be patient. ”
After listening to Jingji's explanation, Su Ling realized that there was still so much attention to this assembly. The young man in front of him is not much older than himself, and he knows so much, and he swears every day that he wants to become a psychic, but he lost at the starting line at the beginning.
"Hey! How do you know so much? When they said this, the two of them walked to a big uphill slope, the mountain road was already difficult to walk, and the slope was really big enough, and it was full of gravel depressions, so it was even more difficult to walk, so that Su Ling's tone was also unstable.
"My name is Shizuji, not Hey."
However, the tone of the other party was steady and full of energy, and there was no trace of being affected by this harsh terrain at all!
Nima, this guy can't help but have a lot of illusions, and his physical strength is not ordinarily good!
Su Ling's heart is broken, it seems that he didn't just lose at the starting line...
"I'm also from a psychic family, so I know a little bit about fur, but I'm not proficient, let alone much."
Su Ling: ......
If that's just scratching the surface, then what does she know... Hair?!
Thinking about it, the two of them climbed to the top of the slope. However, this steep slope is not only powerful, but the distance is not short, and the two of them walked for nearly five minutes before reaching the top of the slope.
Shizuji said okay, with an indifferent face, looking ahead, the world has nothing to do with me. But Su Ling was different, she supported her legs with both hands, her breathing was slightly short, her brows were slightly furrowed, and she looked condescendingly at the high slope she had climbed, "This slope is too steep!" ”
Turning around, he said, "How to choose a ...... for this assembly?"
"Wow!! What is the situation! ”
Su Ling's sanity is offline...
Shizuji smiled at the fool next to him whose chin was about to fall to the ground, and seemed quite satisfied with the other party's reaction, and said in a pleasant tone: "Welcome to the rally." ”
This is the rally?!
It turned out that below the steep slope was the Moonstone Valley, a low valley in a mountain stream. And at this moment, the silver disk of the moon seems to concentrate all its light on this place, which is extraordinarily bright. The air, gray, grassy, silvery, has a hazy beauty.
And in the center of the valley bottom is a peculiar structure of the quaint attic, the edges and corners of the eaves are hung with delicate silver bells, the breeze blows and floats out of the ethereal sound, the dim candlelight shines through the paper window of the attic, from time to time you can also see the figure walking on the plank road outside the corridor, a group of elegant and chic scene, it is really not in vain!
But...
From the top of the slope where the two of them stood to the valley, the relative height was at least thirty meters, she had neither light work nor wings, how to go down was indeed a problem, even if Jing Si could do light work, it would be difficult to bring Su Ling's oil bottle...
Seeing Su Ling looking at the bottom of the cliff with a sad expression, Jingji guessed what she thought.
He took Su Ling's hand, and the latter was full of suspicion.
Don't... The purpose of this guy who brought me here...!
Thinking of this, she hurriedly withdrew her hand and exclaimed, "What do you want to do!" I'm a principled person! ”
If you look handsome, you can't hold hands casually, you have to confirm the relationship first, and then... Ha ha~~
What about your principles!?
Jingji looked at the latter with a cold face, and the corners of his forehead couldn't help but pull the black line, and then said lightly: "I am also principled..."
Who, do you dare to say it again, what do you mean!
He pointed to the bottom of the valley and began to explain: "This Moon Stone Valley has been set up by people to set up an enchantment earlier, and it is impossible to enter from the normal mountain path, and only those with inspiration can enter from the air, but normal people cannot enter. ”
Su Ling sighed, and sighed in his heart that the ingenious design not only prevented the incursions of non-assembly personnel, but also allowed other psychics to save their foot strength on the downhill slope, which was really a double win!
"You mean we're just going to jump right from here?"
Shizuji nodded.
Hiss...
At this height, it was not a little bit that made Su Ling's liver tremble, it was really a test of courage, but there was no way, if she could, she would rather go down from the normal mountain road.
At this time, someone next to him suddenly stretched out his hand towards Su Ling, "Let's go." ”
And the latter saw this gentleman's posture, and took the initiative to hold hands, and his face turned red.
"Go down, go down, why do you have to hold hands..."
Shizuji withdrew his hand, but his face was calm: "Ah, yes, since you don't like it, forget it, but if you fall somewhere else and get lost for a while, don't blame me..."
Su Ling: "What is a big man shy, give me your hand!" ”
Shizuji: Hehe, it's all my fault.
The two of them stood on the edge of the cliff, kicked their hind feet, and jumped up suddenly, and with the acceleration of gravity, they could even feel the heavy air whistling heavily in their ears.
When the body touches the enchantment, you can see that the radius with the ancient building as the center is surrounded by dark purple balls of light, and the contact points between the body and the ball of light are even more touching lotus patterns.
- Maggi!
After entering the ball of light, they were blocked by a dazzling white light, but it was only fleeting, and then the two of them landed on the stone road in front of the ancient building, as if everything that happened just now was a dream.
Su Ling turned around incredulously and looked around, the cliff was still the same cliff, and the silver moon was still the silver moon, but the dark purple ball of light had disappeared, and they all returned to normal.
The two hands were quietly released, and after a while, Shizuji suddenly pointed to a tall pine tree in the distance and said, "Su Ling, can you see the Luo skirt hanging on that tree?" What's that color? ”
Su Ling looked in the direction of his finger, only to see that there was really a Luo skirt hanging on the top of the pine tree, swayed by the wind, she looked at it fixedly, "Crimson..."
"Ah, that's it..." The man looked profound, as if Su Ling was sorry for the other party's emoji without asking anything.
Helpless.
Su Ling: "What's wrong with Crimson?" Is there anything strange? ”
Shizuji: "So-so, I really shouldn't be curious about you..."
Your uncle!
I shouldn't have owed!
"Hey, Shizuji, didn't I tell you that children can't come here!"
At this time, an uncle in a gray robe with a familiar accent walked over from the trestle bridge on the side of the ancient building towards Su Ling, with a serious face.
When Jing Si heard this, he greeted him, and it seemed that he should be an acquaintance, so Su Ling also followed.
"Mr. Ma Tuo, this time I was ordered by the family to come over." Shizuji smiled indifferently, but he was proud.
Ma Tuo sighed lightly, shook his head and muttered, "Mr. Situ again..." Then he saw Su Ling who was following Jing Si, and asked suspiciously: "Huh? Is she your friend? ”
"Ah, sort of, but this guy is so-so."
Su Ling didn't want to say this, so he clenched his fists and got angry: "What do you say, what do you mean by so-so, you make your words clear!" ”
Ma Tuo saw that the atmosphere was not right, and it was not good if something happened outside the assembly, so he hurriedly stopped it, "Hey, you two don't quarrel!" ”
Are these two really friends?!
"Master Shizuji! Young master, here! ”
In the distance, a man stood under a tree and waved his hand in this direction, perhaps because the moonlight in this place was too full, and he could see the other person's figure clearly.
"Then I'll leave first, Qingyu is still waiting for me, goodbye."
With that, Shizuji disappeared into the moonlight.
Looking at the back of the other party leaving, for a while, Su Ling was a little flustered.
What was the purpose of bringing himself here?
Just bring her over, and... And then there was no more?!
"What, that guy!" Su Ling was annoyed, isn't this a trick!
At this time, Ma Tuo, who was standing aside, suddenly spoke: "He is the young master of the Situ clan, Situ Jingsi." ”
"The Situ family..."Su Ling suddenly, speaking of which, she seemed to have seen it in the information in the treasury at home...
Ma Tuo looked at Situ Jingsi's distant back, and his tone was heavy, "The Situ clan is a first-class family in the psychic world, not only unifying the ten prosperous psychic families, but also the heads of the previous generations have made great achievements, and the spirit beasts that have signed contracts with them are also amazing. ”
Not only that, according to the information recorded in the Su family's warehouse, one of the four ancient divine beasts once appeared in the Situ clan, and the times were chaotic at that time, and the major psychic factions were deceitful and wars were frequent. And the Situ family only single-handedly conquered the divine beasts, thus unifying the ten major families, and so far the major families have been led by it and have never resisted.
The Su family used to be one of them, but because there were fewer and fewer people with inspiration, they had to abandon their business, and the position among the top ten families was also replaced by the new family.
However, one thing that Su Ling was very concerned about was that when the Su family withdrew from the control of the Situ family, they were not lonely, and the information only said that because of the differences of opinion between the two families, it was difficult to achieve reunification and finally split. A few strokes, even a little hasty, she had a feeling that there must be some secret behind this...
"So, who are you...?"
The voice on the side made Su Ling temporarily withdraw from thinking, turned his face, and saw that the other party was staring at him suspiciously, so he hurriedly explained: "Ah, my name is Su Ling, and I was brought here by Jingji." ”
"Su Ling..."Ma Tuo frowned and muttered the name, and then suddenly, as if he had discovered something, "You are the one, the second miss of the Su family?!" ”
"Hmm... It's me..."
Then in the bright moonlight, Su Ling also began to seriously look at the face in front of him.
This familiar voice...
This isn't too unfamiliar with a face...
There is also the voice of Situ Jingji, "Mr. Ma Tuo." ”…
"Ahh Su Ling was also stunned, "It turns out that you are the psychic who was scolded by Su Guofeng in my house that day!" ”
Ma Tuo: ......
Can you pay attention to the wording...
Su Ling pondered, it seems that the monster that day should have said it casually.
