Chapter 184: Mirrors
On the thirteenth day of the winter moon of the seventh year of the Great Moon's establishment, many people witnessed the vision that appeared in the western sky.
On a warm winter afternoon, it was a scene of blue sky.
But in the sky above the Lihuo Mountain Range in the west, a circle of white light suddenly appeared, completely enveloping the Lihuo Peak in the middle.
The white light was extremely dazzling, as if it was pouring down from the nine heavens, and then froze there, not dissipating for a long time.
In that white light, the people of Otsuki Kyoto were all hiding in their houses, under the eaves, and in the alleys, looking at the dazzling white light in the sky with fear and panic.
Even before the white light dissipated, everyone chose to watch quietly and remotely with great tacit understanding, and the atmosphere did not dare to take a breath, for fear of attracting this ominous disaster.
The hearts of the people that the Great Moon Empire had just gathered were loosened in this strange celestial phenomenon of white light.
......
In the ruins at the western foot of the Moon Mountain, I don't know when, the rushing river has resumed its flow.
In a humble hut by the river, a white-eyed old monk looked through a narrow window at the dazzling white light in the sky, and fell into a long silence.
"Alas...... Idiot!"
In the middle of the night, he suddenly cursed, picked up his chopsticks and ate two peanuts, picked up the wine glass in front of him and drank it all, and then closed his eyes and went down.
As if everything had nothing to do with him.
......
On a small island in the southern part of a distant continent.
A sloppy Taoist priest was walking in the shade of a tree, half-squinting, sipping wine on his earthy yellow wine gourd.
Suddenly, his eyelids opened suddenly, and two rays of light shot out of his cloudy eyes, looking in the direction of due north.
After staring at it for a long time, he couldn't help but sit up straight, grabbed a handful of gravel from in front of him, and slowly swayed it forward.
On the sand in front of him, he had already turned into a huge chessboard.
The grit was like a chess piece, falling all over the board.
"Hmm...... The chess game has been made, and the variables are not variables after all. ”
He exhaled slowly, leaned back into the shade, and snooze.
......
As the sun set on the horizon, the dazzling pillar of light gradually dimmed, and finally completely dissipated.
Everything on the fire peak seems to have suddenly come to life.
The fat head who was in shock was almost awakened by the arcs of electricity emitted by those spirit beasts.
"Ahh......h
He hurriedly slapped away the arc on his body and dodged to the side in a panic.
Where is there still a trace of the powerful demeanor of the world.
Speaking of which, Old Chen's departure has frightened Fat Toutuo.
Especially the process of Chen Lao being turned into a puppet, all the beauty of the fairy in his heart collapsed in an instant.
In the past half a day, although his body could not move, his mind has been fighting violently over the river and the sea.
Even countless times, he began to wonder whether this path of pursuing the path of cultivating immortals was right or wrong?
If with the continuous breakthrough of cultivation, in the end it can only be turned into a puppet, and it is taken to an unknown world by someone who pinched it casually, then what is the point of cutting all the thorns along the way?
Especially the playful gaze left by the black shadow man when he left, it almost became a lingering haze in the bottom of the fat man's heart.
In the rest of his life, I am afraid that he will become a sharp sword hanging over his head, and at some point it will be his turn to suffer that unprovoked humiliation.
So at this moment, Fat Toutuo's heart is at a loss.
He had a natural greed for that huge spirit stone mine, but as long as he remembered the look in the eyes of the black shadow when he left, he could only keep wandering around the spirit stone, and he didn't dare to pick up a piece at all.
But fortunately, his entanglement did not last long.
Because at the moment when he was hesitating, the huge spirit stone mine also quickly underwent earth-shattering changes.
For some reason, huge streams of spiritual energy continued to emerge from the spirit stones, quickly escaping towards the surroundings.
Even because these spiritual auras were too huge, after entering the surrounding woods, they were directly ignited in a series of crackling explosions.
The Lihuo Peak was the highest peak of the Lihuo Mountain Range, and in the evening, the mountain wind was strong, and these burning fires quickly spread, making the southern foot of Lihuo Peak quickly fall into a sea of red flames.
However, what made Fat Toutuo even more anxious and angry than the fire was that the abundant spiritual energy contained in the spirit stone mine seemed to be quickly depleted after this crazy escape.
Even the piles of spirit stones turned into white ash in the sky under the blowing of the mountain wind, and they were mixed with the white ash after the trees were burned, and they could no longer distinguish each other.
"Ah...... Don't!ah......h
The fat head was like a fast-flying arrow, flying rapidly above the spirit stone mine, rushing to the top of the mountain for a while, and then swooping down towards the mountainside.
At this moment, he is like a madman, with red eyes and trying to recover even one piece of spirit stone.
However, all the spirit stones escaped all the spiritual energy in a moment, turned into powder all over the sky, and there was no trace of their existence anymore.
Behind him, followed by a group of spirit beasts that had nowhere to run after being besieged by fire, roaring and roaring after him.
It looks like a dream.
A monk's most desired and favorite dream of yellow sorghum.
However, it is cruel, especially for people who wake up from dreams, it is simply maddening.
......
In the face of this fire, Han Tianyun and Xiaohua chose to return to the crescent moon space.
Especially watching those spirit stones continue to dissipate, Han Tianyun knew that the purpose of the fat head was no longer possible, and he couldn't help but feel relieved.
However, in his crescent moon, the group of spirit monkeys moved back more than 200 spirit stones, I don't know if it was the same as the outside, but it was just a mirror flower.
Sure enough, as he expected, as soon as he returned to the crescent moon with the lock spirit bow filled with small flowers, Han Tianyun saw that the two hundred or so spirit stones that were piled up by the lake were also rapidly escaping a huge amount of spiritual energy, and then turned into powder.
However, because this crescent moon space is an independent space, after merging with the small world where the red-blooded spirit monkey lives, the aura is extremely thin.
It was because these escaping auras did not cause an explosion in the crescent space, and naturally did not cause a fire.
Instead, they quickly disperse into all corners of the space, merging into the air and becoming a part of the world.
For a while, this crescent moon space was filled with majestic aura, so that those spiritual fruits and elixirs transplanted from the Lihuo Mountain Range slowly stretched out their branches and leaves, and greedily bathed in the baptism of aura.
The group of spirit monkeys gathered by the lake greedily breathed the aura in the air, wanting to inhale them into their own lungs, so as to realize the evolution of the body.
Obviously, although these spirit stones are not guaranteed, they allow the crescent space to obtain abundant spiritual energy, which adds the most critical link to the planting and breeding plan of Han Tianyun.
In the future, with the nourishment of these spiritual energy, this crescent moon space will be a spiritual field of cold clouds.
For this result, Han Tianyun is very satisfied.
......
At Xiaohua's request, Han Tianyun returned to the demon tree.
But this time, as soon as he returned, he discovered the anomaly.
The square inch god who had been lying in the tree hole actually sat at the mouth of the tree hole.
This startled the cold clouds.
"Awake?"
He took a few quick steps back, ready to duck back into the crescent space.
This Fang Cun Shenni had great malice towards him during that great flood, and he was really afraid that as soon as she woke up, she would use herself to practice herself.
However, after staring for a moment, he found that Fang Cun Shenni was motionless with his eyes closed, and he had no intention of attacking him, which couldn't help but make him slightly relieved.
"Huh, she seems to be still meditating, and she hasn't woken up. ”
Under Han Tianyun's careful perception, he found that the state of Fang Cun Shenni seemed to be the same as before, and even the breath on his body was almost none, and at first glance he couldn't tell that he was a living person.
It's exactly the same as when you're in a tree hollow.
"But how did you get to the entrance of the cave?"
Han Tian Yundong looked around for a long time, and found that the beast tide had not appeared, and there was no abnormal change in the heavens and the earth, it seemed that everything was normal, and he couldn't help but mutter.
After observing for a long time, Han Tianyun couldn't think of a reason, so he simply didn't want to, and after taking out two spirit fruits from the crescent moon and putting them next to Fang Cun Shenni, he quickly returned to the underground cave.
Everything is also business as usual for the nurse.
During this time, the generator that Han Tianyun had evacuated and reinstalled was still humming, and after the transformation of the transformer, the high-voltage electricity was transmitted to the roots of the demon tree on the edge of the terraces.
Everything was the way he left.
"Has the old nun been here?"
Han Tianyun was still worried, and couldn't help but ask the nurse.
The nurse shook her head, indicating that she had not seen it.
"That's weird. ”
Han Tianyun frowned, and told Fang Cun Shenni about sitting at the entrance of the tree cave by himself.
Hearing his words, the nurse also shook her head blankly, saying that she couldn't understand what this meant.
Han Tianyun was helpless, and by the way, he talked to the nurse about the descent of the fairy spirit from the Fire Mountain Range.
Compared to what happened to Fang Cun Shenni sitting at the entrance of the tree cave by himself, what happened in the Fire Mountain Range made him even more puzzled and shocked, because he naturally regarded the nurse as the object of confiding.
This time, however, the nurse seemed extremely calm.
This is unusual.
"What do you know, nurse?"
Looking at her ancient and waveless face, Han Tianyun's heart was full of surprise.
Even if an ordinary person hears the strange thing of such a fairy coming into the world, it should not be a calm expression, unless the nurse has seen this kind of thing a long time ago, so she is not shocked.
Hearing Han Tianyun's hurried inquiry, the nurse shook her head in confusion, as if she didn't understand what Han Tianyun wanted to ask.
"No! you must know something. ”
Han Tianyun caught the hint of dodge between her eyes, and couldn't help frowning and asked, "What is that?" Could it be that there really is a fairy envoy in this world?"
The nurse did not answer his words, but just shook her head blankly.
"You ......"
Han Tianyun couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.
After coming to this world, although the original owner of this body is an unlucky ghost, he may have been directly dissipated in the baptism of a thunderstorm and let himself occupy this body.
But since you are already the owner of this body, you should always know your background, right?
This is the first need of being human.
If you don't even know who you are, how do you know what you're going to do in the future?
If he can't figure out his life experience, he has no position, and he doesn't know whether everything he does is right or wrong.
In the final analysis, people live a lifetime not in absolute truth, but in a recognized position.
And identity is the first criterion for establishing this position.
For example, because Han Tianyun appeared in the Great Moon Empire, he would have the first impression of imagining himself as a Great Moon citizen, and in the face of the great right and wrong, he would naturally choose to stand on the position of the Great Moon.
But if you are a Sealander, then everything you do will become treason?
Although from the fact that his surname is "Han", he roughly knows that this is impossible, but isn't Xiaohua a living example?
And based on the past, he always felt that the nurse seemed to be hiding something from him.
But because he couldn't ask why, he gradually stopped asking.
I didn't expect her to react like this when she talked about the fairy envoy today.
This once again aroused the desire to explore in Han Tianyun's heart.
"When are you going to tell me who I am?"
Looking at the nurse's pale and helpless face, Han Tianyun finally held back his temper that was about to explode, sighed and asked.
Hearing his words, the nurse tore frantically at the silver threads of her head with her slender hands, her pale cheeks twisted as if she were recalling some memory that made her so painful.
"Don't ...... Don't do that!"
Han Tianyun is not a cold person.
On the contrary, he is very enthusiastic about his friends and full of attachment to his relatives.
In this world, he can call his relatives, only the nurse and the little flower.
Especially the nurse, her own body has long formed a deep attachment to her.
So seeing the nurse in such pain, his heart immediately softened.
He stepped forward and hugged the nurse to prevent her from grabbing her hair, and then soothed her thin back with his hands, as if he were caring for a hysterical child.
"Huh...... Ho Ho ......"
The nurse opened her tongueless mouth and let out a heart-rending dry howl, and the tears in her eyes flowed down the cold clouds.
For such a nurse, Han Tianyun can no longer criticize her for anything.
I couldn't ask her anything more.
After calming her for the night, Han Tianyun returned to the crescent moon space with a slight depression, and then reappeared with Xiaohua in the Lihuo Mountain Range.
The overnight fire had already burned the dense primeval forest to patches of scorched wood.
The fat head and those spirit beasts have long since disappeared, and the whole mountain is quiet, not even a single insect sounds, like a burned dead place.
"Well, let's go to the location of the cave. ”
Han Tianyun sighed and rushed towards the cave in the middle of the spirit stone mine with Xiaohua.
He wasn't very familiar with the abbot of withered bamboo, but it was embarrassing to see that he was assassinated by his eldest disciple, Fattou Tuo.
In addition, although he didn't know why the abbot of withered bamboo came here, he thought that it was inseparable from the destruction of the Lei Ling Temple.
Maybe he was looking for a spirit stone vein to regain the capital for the Lei Ling Temple to survive.
And for Lei Ling Temple, Han Tianyun still feels guilty.
If he hadn't pulled out the flagpole in the sea of thunderstorms, maybe all this would not have happened, and the Leiling Temple was still the first sect in the millennium.
The abbot of withered bamboo will not suffer from the poisonous hands of his own disciples in this cave.
So, he decided to move the cave and bury Abbot Withered Bamboo and his disciple properly.
However, as soon as he released the monkeys and ordered them to move away from the collapsed rocks, he suddenly heard a slight sound from under the rocks.
"Humph......"
It was the terrible snort of someone seriously injured and dying.
