Chapter 103: Tower of Babel
Before entering the Qinghuang Secret Realm, she asked her senior brother to find the map of the secret realm, and found all the maps she could find, which was as many as ten.
These maps were drawn by the surviving monks after the last time the Secret Realm was opened.
Coupled with the part of Qingzhou's own family, there are a total of eleven maps, but there is no way to find out the location of the bamboo forest, as if the bamboo forest has never appeared.
Since the father's dreams have come true one by one, then the bamboo forest must be preserved, but it may need to meet the needs of the right time and place at the same time to be able to appear in the world.
Before, she felt that the place where the spiritual treasure was hidden was probably the place where the bamboo forest was located, but after four months of wandering, more than a dozen treasure hunts, although sometimes it would fail, but it also gained a lot, but the bamboo forest was still nowhere to be found, so this way of looking may be wrong.
Assuming it's wrong, look for it differently! But what is the best way to succeed?
Out of the underwater cave and standing on the shore of the Red Lake, Huang Luoxue has been thinking about this problem and is puzzled.
Suddenly, she caught a glimpse of a beautiful woman in white in the lake, which was her own reflection, and suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed through her mind.
The time and place are favorable, she is the 'person', and since the rest of the time and place are unknowable, then she will follow her heart and will definitely find the bamboo forest.
Since then, Huang Luoxue has rejected Xiao Gray's treasure hunt many times, and only followed the guidance of his heart and went all the way to the west.
Walk through the woods, cross the grassland, climb a snow-capped mountain, just reach the top, a green bamboo forest appears in front of you, with an area of 100 acres, but before reaching the top, you can't find any trace of the bamboo forest.
Huang Luoxue's heart was very excited, this is the bamboo forest, sure enough, the time and place are right, and all of them are indispensable!
She took off the jade ring from her wrist and placed it on the palm of her hand, rubbing her fingertips gently. Long.
He closed his eyes, opened them again, and then a finger of light slashed across his wrist, and blood gushed out. Dripping on the jade ring.
The jade ring was dyed with a trace of red, slowly, more and more red silk, forming a mysterious pattern, suddenly the red light bloomed, straight into the sky, only to hear a whoosh, the jade ring came out of his hand, and flew into the green bamboo forest.
The jade ring is like a red stone, thrown into the blue waves. Layers of ripples were stirred, the bamboo forest slowly blurred, and the phantom of a pagoda loomed, slowly becoming clear??????
When the bamboo forest disappeared completely, the pagoda turned from virtual to real. Standing in mid-air.
The body of the tower is black and simple, but it seems to have been slashed by someone, and the top of the tower has been cut off, making the magnificent and solemn tower reveal a bit of weirdness.
The jade ring shook lightly and flew into the Xuan Pagoda like a tired bird returning to the forest.
The three big characters of 'Babel Tower' slowly appeared above the tower, and a dull sound came, and the black gate slowly opened. A huge suction erupted.
"The Tower of Babel? It's a familiar name??????" As soon as the thought came to mind, Huang Luoxue was sucked into the Xuan Pagoda.
A moment later, dozens of unidentified objects flew from the top of the snowy mountain, swishing, and all of them were sucked into the gate.
The dark gate slowly turned, and it was about to close. At this time, a loud roar came from afar: "Wait, there is still me!" â
The door seemed to feel it, and there was a slight pause.
At the top of the snow-capped mountain flew a female cultivator in Tsing Yi, tall and tall. The body is on the fat side, like a cannonball, and rushes into the tower through the crack in the door.
Bang dang! The gate is closed, and the tower body is integrated, seamless, as if the gate has never existed zĂ i.
It's dangerous! I almost couldn't get in, and sure enough, the original work couldn't be trusted, Luo Yu sighed secretly.
A quarter of an hour ago, her right foot had just stepped into the inner circle, and she felt that the aura was suddenly thick and half-formed, and her left foot was still on the periphery, and suddenly, a suction force came, but she was a little hesitant, and the suction force was ready to retreat.
Luo Yu, who had read the original text, still didn't understand what was going on, she hurriedly raised her feet and pounced, the suction instantly increased, supporting her to rush out of the woods, all the way through the clouds and the sky, as fast as lightning, hunting with sleeves, the wind blowing in her face, like a knife cutting a sword, Luo Yu held up the spiritual power cover, which was a little better.
In the distance, she saw a tall and majestic tower on the top of the snow, but the top of the tower was missing, and the words 'Babel Tower' were shining.
"Babel Tower, I'm Huang Luoyu here!" She shouted excitedly, not as panicked as the other monks were wrapped in suction.
Suffered, the Xuanhei gate was turning, and seeing that it was about to be closed, Luo Yu, who was anxious, hurriedly roared, and the scene in front of him appeared.
??????
The summer is scorching, the water is murmuring, the stone bridge is crossing, and the three or five laurel trees on the right bank are luxuriant, covering a piece of coolness.
Seven or eight villagers under the tree were chatting in the cool air, and a white-haired old lady stood up and waved at the left bank.
"Xiaoyu, come and eat watermelon!"
"Hey, it's coming!" Luo Yu nodded happily, wiped a handful of sweat, stepped on the stone bridge, came to the laurel tree, said hello to the uncles around him, and then walked to the old lady, took a piece of red soil watermelon, and took a bite, sweet and cold.
"Grandma, has this melon been soaked in well water?"
"yes, I've been soaking all morning!" The old lady patted the blue-brown stone bench beside her, "Come, sit on the stool and eat slowly." â
"Okay." Luo Yu promised.
The stone bench, to be exact, is an irregular stone, with sharp edges on the sides and smooth and shiny front, but it is the result of the villagers sitting for a long time and has not been cut and trimmed.
There are sixteen such stone benches, which are placed under the laurel tree.
It is said that many people sat on these stones, and like the hundred-year-old laurel tree, they quietly watched the villagers multiply from generation to generation.
Luo Yu said while nibbling on the melon: "Grandma, in two months, the laurel tree will bloom, and I will pick it and make moon cakes for you when the time comes." â
"What stupid thing is Xiaoyu talking about? Ten days later, you will leave home and go to T City for your junior year, how can you come back to pick osmanthus flowers for your grandmother? â
"Hehe, I forgot." Luo Yu smirked twice, but she was wondering in her heart, she remembered that she had graduated from college for a long time, why was she still in school at this time?
"After eating the melon, go back and help me choose the vegetables."
"Okay!" Luo Yu shook off her doubts, followed her grandmother, and walked into the house next to the laurel tree, with black tile stone walls, green moss and wild grass growing at the foot of the wall, and ants shuttling between them, looking for food everywhere.
In the dead of night, insects chirping and frogs chirping, Luo Yu sat under the laurel tree, reached out and touched the rough bark, and looked up at the full moon in the sky.
She felt that she hadn't been back for many years, but her grandmother said that she would return to the village every winter and summer vacation, and would not take the train to leave until two days before school started.
The train has to run for a day and a night to get to the capital, and then change trains to go to T City, so she needs to leave two days in advance, otherwise she won't be able to start school in time.
