Chapter 15: The Secret of the Stone Statue of the Holy Palace
Several people looked at the stone statue for a long time, and then Ouyang Jufang shook his head and said: "There is only one rule about the stone statue: you are not allowed to destroy the stone statue, but you are not allowed to move the stone statue arbitrarily. And this rule has only existed since the third generation of the head of the Yu Immortal Sect. ”
Gu Xun thought for a while, and suddenly said with a startled look: "It was the third-generation patriarch 10,000 years ago, and the head of Dong Shangxian Patriarch set it?" In other words, this stone statue only existed at that time? ”
"I guess so." Ouyang Jufang's eyes were deep, as if he remembered something, and sighed: "Alas, it's a pity that the Great War of Immortals and Demons 10,000 years ago, although the Demon Clan and Demon Sect also disappeared and fell silent, and it was not until two thousand years ago that the Witch Delusion Sect appeared again, but that war also caused our Immortal Realm to suffer heavy losses, so that until now, we can only recover a fraction of the strength of 10,000 years ago, which is really ashamed......"
Gu Xun couldn't help but sigh at the low strength of the fairy world now, but the demon world is constantly increasing in strength, and the future is really confused and slim!
Xu Liyue didn't know the origin of the stone statues when he heard these powers, and from their evaluation of the gods and demons 10,000 years ago, he started all kinds of brain supplements, maybe there was a touching story behind it. Of all the various books I read in my previous life, if there is anything about stone statues, which one doesn't have such a legendary story?! However, Xu Liyue looked at the stone statue, but suddenly felt a sense of déjà vu, as if he had seen it in a dream once upon a time. She shook her head, laughing in her heart that she was becoming more and more integrated into this world, and even seeing a stone statue had a sense of déjà vu, isn't this stone statue similar to that she had seen in those Xianxia martial arts TV movies in her previous life, and the stone statues looked almost like that!
Just as Xu Liyue and the others were looking at the stone statue and thinking wildly, several footsteps came from the stone path behind him.
Xu Liyue turned his head to look, but saw that in addition to the young man named "Fan'er", there were also three women and one man. Among the three girls, there was a lovely round-faced girl of about eleven or twelve years old, holding the hand of a beautiful woman, bouncing all the way; and the other woman was a little older than the beautiful woman, and her countenance was dignified with a little fierceness; The other man was a chubby man who looked to be in his fifties, and he was the one who led the way.
However, when they were about to reach the clearing in front of the wooden house in the forest, the girl among the five people jumped over from behind, grabbed Ouyang Jufang's arm, and looked at Ouyang Jufang with bright black eyes, and asked, "Daddy, is the sect going to add new disciples again?" ”
Ouyang Jufang grimaced, and said solemnly: "If you don't go to cultivate well, why are you here!" ”
"My daughter hasn't seen her father for a long time, her father has been in retreat, and she came to the Holy Mansion when she came out today, of course her daughter has to follow her mother to see her father first." The girl pouted, and was reprimanded by Ouyang Jufang as soon as she opened her mouth, as if she was a little aggrieved.
"Well, forget it this time!" Ouyang Jufang lowered his momentum and eased his face. I didn't want to reprimand my daughter, let alone so many people here.
Yu Fan walked up to Ouyang Jufang and saluted Ouyang Jufang: "Master." ”
Ouyang Jufang nodded in response, and Yu Fan naturally stood on the other side of Ouyang Jufang.
The other three bowed and saluted, "Meet the master." ”
Ouyang Jufang greeted one by one: "Senior Brother Zang, Senior Sister Xi, Senior Sister Qi." Then he continued: "A year ago, because I had some earthly promises with Xu Lijia in Dayu Town, that is, to test whether the descendants of Xu Lijia have spiritual veins and whether they can cultivate immortals, so today I specially invite all the brothers and sisters to come over. ”
"It's too early for the head to say this at this time, it's better to test it quickly, and it's not too late to say it later when there is really a spiritual vein." The older woman was Xi Yuehuan, the master of the Yuxian Sect Dan Fu Sect, her face was cold, and she seemed to be very unhappy to waste time casually on a little girl's test of the spiritual vein.
"What Senior Sister Xi said is, then let's ask the divine beast to open the door now." Ouyang Jufang also smiled at Xiyuehuan and didn't smile anymore.
Immediately, Ouyang Jufang turned around and moved two steps to the blue and black rock carved with "Lan Tianju", knelt down, and the others also knelt down, leaving only Xu Liyue and Xu Lixiao standing and watching.
"Ouyang Jufang, the twenty-second generation head of the Yu Immortal Sect, respectfully asks the Divine Venerable to open the door and borrow the test immortal stone, thinking that my Immortal Sect will contribute to it." After Ouyang Jufang finished speaking, he took the people of Yuxian Sect to worship on the ground.
After three prostrations, only a loud bang was heard, followed by the sound of grinding between the solid stones, coming from behind the blue and black rocks.
Xu Liyue didn't expect that there was really such a divine beast, and he still took care of this place, could he understand human words? I don't know what it looks like. Xu Liyue's mind filled up the appearance of the divine beast, and at the same time, he saw the blue and black rock engraved with the words "Lan Tianju" slowly moving to the side, and a dark secret passage gradually appeared behind the rock.
When the rock stopped moving, a passage large enough for four or five people to pass through in parallel extended down in a staircase pattern. At the same time, with the opening of the blue and black rocks, torches were lit up all the way in the tunnel, illuminating the tunnel space for a while.
But Xu Liyue stretched his neck to take a look at the appearance of the divine beast, but saw that the stairs behind the rock were neatly lined with stone walls on both sides, and he didn't see any shadow of the divine beast at all, and there was not even a sound in the tunnel.
At this time, Ouyang Jufang led everyone to stand up, turned around and stretched out his hand to Xu Lixiao, and said, "Come, follow me." ”
Xu Lixiao looked at Ouyang Jufang in a daze, and then looked at Xu Liyue, not knowing whether to follow or not, just biting his lip timidly.
Xu Liyue pulled Xu Lixiao over and said, "Don't be afraid, cousin, the head of Ouyang is an immortal and a good person." If you really want to go back to see your aunt one day, then from now on, you can't cower, you have to learn to make your own decisions! You have to be brave! ”
Of course, everyone heard Xu Liyue persuade Xu Lixiao, but they didn't want this little one to be more sensible and brave than the big one, but like she was her sister. Everyone else looked at the two sisters with interest, and some people compared the two sisters in their hearts, secretly guessing which of the two sisters would have a fairy root.
Gu Xun already knew a little bit about Xu Liyue's temperament and the big ghost, so he wasn't much surprised at this time, and only said to Xu Lixiao: "We will all go in, you just have to go with the master." ”
Xu Lixiao silently walked towards Ouyang Jufang.
The group went down with the stone steps, and turned a few more corners, all the way to the same scenery - all stone steps and stone wall torches, Xu Liyue was a little depressed in his heart, why did these immortals dig such a deep hole! Finally, after another stone staircase descended, the eyes suddenly opened up. It was a huge stone chamber as wide and high as an auditorium, with a high platform on the ground in the center of the stone chamber, and a small ravine, one meter wide, around which led to five shallower troughs, each extending in five directions, until it reached the center of the top of the vault. In addition, there is no other furnishings, only that there is a colorful round stone on the high platform, the colored stone is as big as the trunk of the thousand-year-old tree in the courtyard of Xu Liyue's house, and the colored stone is also directly below the dome roof.
