461 Thousand Rivers Spirits
The rain was thin and sticky when it fell on the body.
When I was young, I was often hungry, and Master used to get up in the middle of the night to take me to make food, so I could walk the right way up the mountain, even with my eyes closed.
I took a long detour to the Taiqing Palace, and the several halls where I used to practice the witch array were still the same, I dragged a wooden ladder and rummaged through the witch materials in front of the huge medicine cabinet, and the order did not change at all.
More than two hours later, the sky was getting brighter, and I hid the small baggage under the green pine next to the lonely peak, set up a spirit cutting array, and then quietly returned to the house.
The candles on the desk were about to burn out, but the shadows of the tables and chairs were stretched for a long time.
I took off my wet coat, combed my hair, and lay down on the bed.
I don't dare to sleep, lest I sleep again as a few days ago.
I looked at the beam with my eyes open, and my hand habitually touched my stomach, but my lower abdomen had already flattened.
It's a hard feeling to worry about it, but you don't dare to let yourself think about it.
After lying down for a while, before the sun had set outside the window, I leaned over slightly, looked at the slightly open window, and tears finally fell out.
Stretching out my hand to wipe it off, I got up, put on my clothes, and went straight to the Quanyue Tower of my master.
Before the master woke up, I sat down under the stone steps at the door, the sea of clouds flowing past me, and the air was cold and moist.
I started to warm my hand, and when I was about to do it again, the door behind me creaked open.
I stood up and turned around, the master was wearing a middle coat, a robe was approved outside, his hair was neat and clean, there was no trace of unkemptness, and he looked at me with a slight frown: "Is there any discomfort?" ”
I shook my head: "No, I, I want to go to the Tibetan Temple." ”
"Hidden Temple?" Shizun turned his eyes and looked at the Taiqing Palace, "There has always been no lock on the mountain, if you want to go, you can ......" He paused. Then he said, "Chu Jiu, are you going to the Thousand Rivers Palace?" ”
I nodded slightly, "Hmm." ”
Wangyun Mountain is indeed not locked, people who don't know us won't come here, people who come to visit won't walk around, although the treasures in the Taiqing Palace are worth thousands of dollars, but there are almost no people who really dare to steal.
Just like the pair of sisters that Master took in. They cut off my fingers and ran away in fear. He only dared to steal the master's silver, but he definitely didn't dare to leave with the things in the Taiqing Palace.
But there is one place where the master is sealed. If you want to enter, you must get his consent, which is the Qianhe Hall in the Taiqing Palace.
Different from other famous swords in the Tibetan Palace, the noble long swords in the Thousand Rivers Hall are all sword spirit weapon spirits.
Two hundred years ago. There was once a sword spirit who had evil thoughts and came out with several swords. It almost caused a catastrophe, and since then, Shizun has collected all the spirit swords and spiritual weapons in the dark hall in the depths of the Taiqing Palace, and sealed them with the Changhe Thousand Rivers Array. That place came to be called the Thousand Rivers Temple.
Shi Zun narrowed his eyes, looked sideways at the room, and raised his arm slightly. He usually carries it with him, and the jade pendant that he puts next to his pillow after falling asleep flies into his hand in an instant.
He walked down the steps. Hand it to me: "Go ahead." ”
I stretched out my hand to take it, paused, and said, "Master, don't you ask me what I'm going to do?" ”
"Don't ask."
"Well," I lowered my head, "Thank you, Master, the ninth day of the first month has retired." ”
"Wait a minute." Shizun shouted.
I looked back at him.
He closed his eyebrows lightly, half loudly, and said: "On the ninth day of the first month, the master gate is the house, which can shelter you from the sun and rain, block the wind and drive away the cold, even if the sky is about to fall, the master will never fall, you are safe under the wing of the house, and you don't have to worry about everything else." ”
"Master ......"
He nodded indifferently and went back to the house.
The wooden door closed softly, and I paused for a long time before turning to leave.
I have been selfish and timid since I was a child, and I am not a hero of righteousness, and I have no ambition.
If someone suddenly comes out and asks me to save the world, I won't move half a step if I break ten or twenty legs.
But if there are only a few people left in the world who can do something for it, and I am one of them, I can't go.
But everybody, they'll go.
He has always been a great master who has always practiced a hundred ways in the world and acted benevolently, and he can say such things, in fact, he also loves me very much.
The morning breeze was cool, my hair hanging down my ears was gently blown, I wrapped my clothes tightly, walked through the merlin, and walked towards the side gate of Taiqing Palace.
Taiqing Palace is the largest and most spectacular building on the mountain, four hundred years ago, after the master decided to take Wangyun Mountain as a hidden place, at that time the master of Manshan City and Fuyun Sect specially selected nearly 100 immortal disciples to come here to build the Taiqing Palace, and sent it as a great gift to the master.
The Taiqing Palace has a total of six gates, thirty-eight wide windows, divided into the Qingxin Pavilion and the Tibetan Palace, and only one Qingxin Pavilion is twice as large as the Zhu Xia Dan room where I hid in the Fuyun Sect at that time.
The Tibetan Hall is larger than the Qingxin Pavilion, and there are several halls in the middle of them, and the deepest one is the Thousand Rivers Hall.
The corridor was empty and quiet, and I walked through it one by one, turned an accord, and stopped at the foot of the steps outside the door of the Thousand Rivers Temple.
I was a little scared in my heart, I lowered my eyes and looked at the jade pendant in my hand, and stepped onto the stage after hesitating slightly.
Removing the jade pendant's Qiu Ying's binding silk, I put the jade pendant into the recess on the left side of the temple door, and pressed it hard, and the aqua-green jade pendant suddenly weaved red silk.
When the seal dissipated, I took off the jade pendant, took a deep breath, and reached out to push open the temple door.
The blue light spilled out, and after a brief murmur, I stepped in and closed the door gently.
The main hall is high and open, hundreds of purple polyester stones are listed in the air, and the candlelight is discharged with the dew light of the middle sky, which is not dazzling, and the hall is clear and peaceful.
Those famous swords and utensils are presented everywhere, and the whole hall is very quiet and quiet, but it is different from the silence outside, as Master said, the silence here is the coolness of the years, the desolation of the ancients.
When I was a child, every three months, Master Venerable would take me and Yang Xiuyi to wipe them carefully, so as not to make the pearl dusty, so I am no stranger here, but I have been here so many times, and I have never been so worried as today.
I stood still in the middle of the main hall, looked around, and said, "You guys...... Can you hear me? ”
Quietly, there was no response.
"I'm here to ask a few questions." I said again.
It's still silent.
"I'm just like you, a creature, but I'm a human being."
It was quiet for a while, and it was as good as ever.
I looked at the nearest Nan Mulan Qi, walked over and removed the sword from the holder.
The scabbard is cold, the sword is blue jade, the sword is more than three feet long, and the hilt is slightly carved with Rong Yao's pattern.
I grasped the hilt of the sword and pulled it away gently, a burst of bright white light made me squint slightly, and when I was about to fix my eyes on the hook on the sword, a mellow but ethereal male voice suddenly sounded: "The spirits here have either been sealed or have been self-retreated, and there will be no reaction." ”
I gladly turned around and looked up to the north: "Who are you and where are you?" ”
"The sword in your hand is called Haunting Que, and it has been sealed for fifty-seven years."
I stroked the scabbard and put the sword back on Lan Qi.
"Thou art a human being, thou art a human being?"
I nodded, looking in the air, "Yes." ”
He chuckled and did not hide his sarcasm: "How did you know? ”
"Indeed, I am a spirit, and my fathers are all living beings."
"You've found your parents, you idiot?"
I'm stunned.
"Isn't it that someone has fooled him, he doesn't even let go of a fool, this person should be scolded."
"It's true." I'm busy.
He scoffed.
I sat down on the low stone steps on the side and said in a low voice: "I always thought that I was abducted from my father and mother by a wizard and used to test the evil array, so my body has so many strange things, but in fact, it is not, I suffered an accident in my family when I was a child, and my father and mother were both killed." I looked up, "This life of mine was bought by my aunt in exchange for her life, my aunt, and my father, they are all living beings, and now, they have disappeared. ”
He didn't speak, and I vaguely felt that he seemed to be looking at me, and after a long time, he said, "Since you are a lonely spirit, you come out and show me." ”
"That's what I'm going to ask my seniors today, and I can't get out."
He laughed: "Can't get out? ”
"I've been out three times." I said, "The first and second were in the Ancient Witch Temple, and the third time was in a tomb, but that tomb was modeled after the Ancient Witch Temple. ”
His voice sank: "Ancient Witch Palace? ”
"Yes, senior, I don't know who you are, but you call me stupid, you should have seen me before. I was stupid when I was young, but I was not born with it, but because I had turbidity in my blood and bones. ”
"It also has something to do with the accident in your family?"
"Yes." I looked down at the gray and purple complexion on the back of my hand, paused, and said, "Have you ever heard of drinking birds?" ”
"Why bring it up."
"You may not believe it," I said, raising my eyes, "my creatures are very powerful, and when I was in that tomb, I only moved my mind a little, and then I smashed a bird out of the way, and shattered it along with the jade pillar that several people were hugging together. ”
"You?"
"Yes, later, I destroyed that hall as well." I turned my eyes around and said, "That hall is a hundred times wider than this Thousand Rivers Palace." ”
"How can there be such a vast tomb hall, whose tomb is it?"
"Ten Witches."
"Them?"
"Senpai," I said earnestly, "do you know why, why I can only come out in these places?" Is there any way to get me out now? ”
He fell silent again, and after a long time, he said, "I am a sword spirit, you are a human spirit, and I don't understand the affairs of human spirits." ”
"What about your weekdays? Can you draw a sword at any time on weekdays? ”
"If you don't have a seal, you can do it, but it's not easy. Our sword spirit is rested by sword movement, and the courage of the sword-wielder is the strength of the spirit, and the sword is the easiest to use in battle. ”
"Then, senior, you are well-informed, can you help me think of a way?"
After being quiet for a while, he said, "Silly, are you afraid that your body will run out of oil and the lamp will run out?" He sighed, "But fool, your bond with your body will not disappear, and even if you can leave for a while, once your body is exhausted, you will die." ”
"I don't want to leave my body because of this, but I want to be strong."
"Do you have a long-cherished wish?"
If I mention my long-cherished wishes, I don't have more than one or two things to finish.
There was a lot of confusion in my heart, I frowned lightly, and said: "In addition to becoming stronger, I can only become conscious again when I leave this body, I am very afraid, afraid that I will be stupid again." ”
"But how can he help you?" Another male voice suddenly sounded. (To be continued.) )
