Chapter 10 Proverbs, Spiritual Roots and Rock Sugar Gourds

The elimination of the demon clan, the conclusion of the Heavenly Wolf Agreement, and the wedding of Sun Jiyu, the eldest grandson of King Yan, and Nangong Xian, the first beauty of Great Chu...... All this seems to mean that the people of Kyushu no longer have to be afraid of flying disasters, and they can live and work happily ever after. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

For at least the entire fifteen years, Kyushu was like Xingchen Lake on the outskirts of Suzhou and Hangzhou, calm and peaceful.

The happy prince and princess also enjoyed such a dull and comfortable day.

What's even more pleasing is that with the blessing of the people of the Northern Three Kingdoms, on a snowy day in December, Nangong Xian gave birth to a chubby little boy.

The three northern kingdoms, from the magnates of the kingdom to the common people, all sent sincere congratulatory gifts or congratulatory letters to the Wuhui Mansion. Even King Yan, who seemed to have only the friendship of a monarch and a minister with Ji Yu, came to the Wuhui Mansion in person, happily picked up this little great-grandson who dared to pee on him, and named this child who was not yet a month old as the Marquis of Chengping on the spot.

After all, today's peace of the Three Kingdoms was not only fought by Wu Huigong, but also laid by Ji Yu after sacrificing his own huge interests. Moreover, there is a provision in the peace oath that as long as Ji Yu's bloodline exists, such a situation will be maintained.

And this little baby boy is the first continuator of Ji Yu's bloodline, he is a veritable son of peace.

In the sixteenth year, with the arrival of this child in the world, the three northern countries spent another year in peace, and the magnates of the central and southern countries also stopped eating big fish and small fish, and only used their energy on the power struggle in the court.

Since the 1,900th anniversary of the Lingyuan Era, Kyushu has ushered in a rare and brief peace.

Fast forward to 17 years.

There is a rumor that I don't know when it started and I don't know where it spread. In short, rumors spread more and more, and instead of people's exchanges of various anecdotes, they became a hot topic of discussion on the streets and alleys.

"400,000 unjust souls, too yin swallows the sun. The wicked disturb the world, and the saints die in battle. The evil breaks through the domain, and the demons are crazy. Tianshu Road is complete, where is the road to Kyushu? ”

It is said that this is the last scene interpreted by the current Taoist leader, the Heavenly Providence Sect, from the World Words Boundary Monument, and it was compiled as a bad rumor after it was transmitted.

According to the calculations of the Heavenly Time Pavilion, some people learned that the next time the Taiyin swallowed the sun would occur in the 49th year of the Twentieth Era. The spread of this news undoubtedly provoked an uproar and caused a great deal of panic to spread. Even though many righteous sects and princes and magnates denounced this proverb as just a lie, it still could not calm those who were not accustomed to living a peaceful life.

Some radicals even argued that Kyushu had to establish a unified dynasty in order to effectively concentrate the most powerful forces in response to the impending crisis.

The pacifists reacted violently to this, denouncing such ideas as absurd and vicious. Not to mention whether the demons will break through the domain and descend on Kyushu to cause a crisis of the human race, if Kyushu launches a unified war in advance, it will be the real end of the world.

The controversy between the two factions was extremely fierce, but no matter what the outcome, the seeds of the idea of reunifying Kyushu had been inexorably sown throughout the Kyushu countries and took root in the hearts of those militants. Especially those who are extremely dissatisfied with the Heavenly Wolf Oath and the careerists in the court.

Those who have a heart even think that the Book of Heaven mentioned in the proverb is actually aimed at Ji Yu, the reincarnation of the Book of Heaven. In addition, in the second Heavenly Wolf Oath, Ji Yu's important position ...... People with a keen sense of smell seem to be aware of the undercurrents behind the proverbs.

Ji Yu, as the party concerned, didn't know that he had already laid down an arrow. After marrying Nangong Xian, he resigned from all positions in the army and returned to his fiefdom Wuhui Prefecture.

However, as the ninth reincarnation of Canglong, it seems that even the thief God can't get used to seeing his life too chic......

………………………………

The children of the Kyushu human race have not yet dissipated their innate qi at the age of three, and the children in this period have a certain cognitive ability as long as they are normal, and it is the best period to start cultivating the innate realm to attract spirits into the body.

Therefore, in the Yan Kingdom, on the seventh day of the seventh month of July every year, all children who have reached the age of two go to Dingjing City to determine the type, attributes and potential of the spiritual root.

This year's Spiritual Root Test has clearly received more attention than ever. Because there is a name on the test list, it is called Ji Xuetian.

His father's name is Ji Yu, and his mother's name is Nangong Xian.

There is no need to ask anything else, the names of the parents already speak for themselves. This child, who was already destined to be ordinary in his life when he was born, was the youngest marquis of Kyushu - Marquis Chengping. He has a title that symbolizes many expectations and hopes - the Son of Peace.

Today is the day he measures the spiritual root. Everyone was curious about what his talent really was.

Outside the Lingshi Dao Hall in Dingjing City, it was guarded by a hundred Yan Dingtie cavalry, and ordinary people couldn't know the situation inside at all. The other children who wanted to test the spiritual root could only enter after the privileged classes had finished testing.

On the avenue in the square in front of the hall, an ordinary carriage slowly drove and stopped at the white jade steps of the Spirit Measuring Hall. A man and a woman who looked like fairy couples stepped out of the carriage and were stared at by countless pairs of eyes, including reverence, admiration, blessing, envy, jealousy, resentment and curse......

The two don't care what the people around them think. Duke Ji Yu of Wuhui turned around, picked up a child holding a rock sugar gourd from the carriage, put it on the ground, rubbed his head, and motioned for the child to walk up the steps by himself.

The child who licked the rock sugar gourd may be very well-behaved and obedient because he has candy to eat.

I saw the little boy step up the stairs steadily and dexterously, and instantly reached the gate and ran into the hall. It's not like a child who is just two and a half years old, and the onlookers can't help but sigh, it's really a dragon giving birth to a dragon and a phoenix!

Ji Yu at the bottom of the steps shook his head helplessly, he just told the child that the above is the Spirit Palace, and he can go home to eat delicious food after the test. It didn't make him run so fast.

Nangong Xian smiled slightly, expressed relief to Ji Yu, and walked up with him.

In the hall, a little kid holding a rock sugar gourd suddenly broke into without a report, and a word attracted the attention of the bigwigs. He shouted in a milky voice, "Tell me quickly, where is the spirit stone?" I'm going to go home and eat sweet milk pastries after the test! ”

After that, the person who knew the inside story reacted and said, "It's him." ”

Looking around, he noticed that there was a huge transparent stone in the middle of the huge white jade hall, and he said in a milky voice: "Oh, really, everyone present is blind and dumb, and the stone is in front." ”

I don't know where the two-and-a-half-year-old boy learned the language style, and the accumulation of words is quite rich.

I saw that the bear child was about to move forward quickly, and a man as rich as jade stood in front of him, holding his hand against his forehead, and even if his feet were like the wind, he could not advance half a step.

The child who reacted looked up at Ji Yu and said, "Xiao Yu, what are you doing?" ”

Ji Yu said funny and angry: "There are others who are trying to call Daddy, besides, I asked you what you are doing?" ”

"Really, Soul Measuring Root, didn't Xiao Yu call me here?" The little kid said in a tone.

The audience couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Call Daddy!" Ji Yu pinched his chubby cheek.

The grinning child noticed that his mother was also coming, and ran up to complain: "Mother, mother, Xiaoyu, he bullied me!" ”

Nangong Xian naturally wants to behave in front of outsiders. She touched the little fat man's head and said, "Be good, listen to Daddy." ”

Seeing that his mother was also on his father's side, the little fat man compromised: "Okay, Daddy Xiaoyu, what do you want me to do?" ”

Ji Yu breathed a sigh of relief: "Give me the sugar gourd, go to the priest's sister, give her the name tag, and after getting her confirmation and permission, walk into the formation, and reverently press your hands on the spirit stone." ”

"It's a nuisance." The child graciously handed the sugar gourd to his father, "Now, you can eat it, but you have to give me back two sticks." ”

Ji Yu smiled and reached out to pinch his face, and when he saw that the situation was not good, he immediately turned around and walked towards the spirit stone.

Ji Xuetian handed over the name tag to the priest and said, "Auntie, do you still need to confirm that I'm so cute?" ”

The young, unmarried priest resisted the urge to flatten him, smiled and made a gesture of please.

So, he pretended to be very reverent and walked up to the transparent spirit stone, and pressed his fat little hand stained with syrup on the stone.

The priest girl looked solemn, her right hand knotted her fingerprints, her left hand pinched the fingerprints, and she shouted "open" lightly, and the formation hidden in the ground rose with nine-colored light, enveloping the child and the spirit stone, making it impossible to see the situation inside.

After about a quarter of an hour, after the light dissipated, there was no change in the fieldβ€”the spirit stone was still transparent, and the child was still a child.

The magnates of the Yan Kingdom and the famous people of the Daomen who were staring at each other with wide eyes were shocked! What's the situation? Even if it is the worst Xuan Ling Waste Vein, the spirit stone will also display the attribute and potential level, how can there be nothing! There was a lot of talking.

The bear kid didn't care, and he asked, "Is it over?" Can you go home? ”

The sharp-eyed goddess official seemed to see two small palm prints on the spirit stone.

Turning her head, she saw the little fat man licking his palms and saying, "The syrup is sticky on the hands, it's really uncomfortable." ”

Then everyone present also understood the situation - the spirit stone had to come into contact with the tester's flesh and blood to determine the spirit root......

Ji Yu and Nangong Xian covered their eyebrows, indicating that they hadn't seen anything.

The others were full of black lines, and then they didn't need to look to know that this kid was a talent.

The goddess had no choice but to take out a handkerchief and wipe his hands clean again......

In the square outside the hall, both children and curious people were very puzzled. It seems that Wu Huigong and his wife are the last to come from the Yan royal family, why haven't they finished the test for almost an hour? Even the sky was unconsciously condensed with black oppressive clouds. It depends on the situation, if those big people don't come out again, the small people will be drenched in the rain.

In the hall, people looked at the nine-colored light that was still flashing in the field, and they were very looking forward to and wondering.

According to their understanding, this should be the longest time for the spirit stone to be judged since the Lingyuan era. Although the length of time for the spirit stone to be judged is not necessarily related to the level of the spirit root attribute and talent, there will definitely be a different result, such as Ji Yu twenty-six years ago...... So they're looking forward to what the outcome will be.

As for the doubts, the celebrities and bigwigs present all felt that the celestial phenomena outside were changing, and a huge energy was condensing, but there was obviously no artificial spiritual power fluctuation.

It's probably going to be a thunderstorm......

Nangong Xian asked worriedly, "Every day, he will be fine, right?" ”

Ji Yu squeezed her little hand and smiled to let her relax.

Finally, the nine-colored light dissipated. The spirit stone in the middle was still bright, but Ji Xuetian was no longer as lively as before, and looked up at the dome blankly.

"Come here every day......" Nangong Xian called softly.

"Click-boom!" A thunderous explosion sounded, and even a Heavenly Realm powerhouse like Ji Yu was caught off guard, let alone others, and they quickly noticed it in shockβ€”the dome of the thousand-year-old Dao Hall guarded by the formation had a hole in diameter of one zhang.

Through the hole, I saw that the black and oppressive clouds on the sky dome were centered directly above the hole, and were spinning into a terrifying whirlpool, in which purple thunder flickered.

The center of the jet-black vortex gradually revealed a bright light, "Boom-"

A thick purple light scattered the clouds and went straight to where Ji Xuetian was standing.

Accompanied by Nangong Xian's exclamation. Ji Yu rushed towards Ji Xuetian at the extreme speed, but it was still slow, except for the immortals, no matter how fast anyone was, he couldn't speed up the light, he could only watch the light envelop the child. Just when he didn't have time to blame himself, he was shocked to see a purple-black book enter Ji Xuetian's body......

The light dissipated, and everything returned to normal except for the hole in the ceiling. Ji Xuetian looked at his father's strange expression, and said heartlessly: "Daddy Xiaoyu, this time the test is over, right?" ”

Ji Yu visited the child's physical condition and found no abnormalities. He breathed a sigh of relief, nodded and smiled: "Well, let's go, go home and eat something delicious." As he spoke, he was about to take the child's hand, but the boy was very shameless, and he ran forward with a shout of joy, and took his mother's hand and went outside......

Ignoring the shocked representatives of all forces in the hall and the people outside the hall who did not know the truth, the family returned to the carriage and embarked on the way home.

………………………………

On the way, Ji Xuetian seemed to remember something, left her mother's arms, and threw herself on her father, startling Ji Yu, who was doubting and pondering.

"Daddy!" The child said coquettishly.

"Well, what's the matter?" Ji Yu rubbed the child's head affectionately.

"You owe me two rock sugar gourds?"

Inside the carriage, Xian'er chuckled, Ji Yu looked helpless, took out two of the sugar gourds that had been prepared earlier, and said, "Take it." ”

However, the child did not snatch the sugar gourd as quickly as before.

Because, just a sentence in time, he seemed to be asleep......

Both realized that something was not quite right - that the child could not have fallen asleep in front of the candy......

Ji Yu pinched his face and said a little worriedly: "Don't pretend to be asleep every day, there is candy to eat." ”

But the child still didn't react, although his breath was steady and normal.

Ji Yu shook the child vigorously again, but the child was still unconscious. The husband and wife glanced at each other, and they both saw the panic on each other's faces......
