Chapter 608: Kneel
The Red Shield Eight traveled day and night and entered the country of Wuxian on July 6.
Wuxian Kingdom is located in the northwest of the Eastern Boundary, bordering Beihai in the north, Longquan Mountain Stream in the west, and closed in the southeast. Red Shield and the others took the risk and came from the southeast.
Red Shield and the others were not guests of Wuxian Kingdom, and the locals also knew that witches would contact them because they had saved Wugu City. And now, after being allowed to enter Wuxian Kingdom, they changed their previous direction and did not go to Wugu City because it was still far away.
"Is it really okay to go directly to the Immortal Palace?"
When Gan Suo asked Luo Tian, the latter showed a little helplessness in his eyes.
"No way, time is running out now, we have to find a whirlpool. When I was practicing in Wugu City, Master and I had discussed the resurrection of the human body, and the seven souls and six spirits and the physical body are all indispensable conditions for resurrection, and Xiaoxing is now just in the right place, and the longer it drags on, the more dangerous it becomes. ”
When he was sure that Xiao Fu's seven souls and six spirits were all there, and there was still hope of resurrection, Luo Tian wanted to let Qian Ling bring everyone directly to Wu Xian Country, but Qi Ling's strength was exhausted at that time, so he followed the Gade Army all the way, and now he has entered Wu Xian Country, of course, he can't delay time.
"Brother Ganso is worried about Xuanxuan. ”
Qian Ling sat next to Ganso, and with him, he didn't need to drive with manpower, just a sense of his own.
"I'm also worried that she's a shrine maiden, and she has supreme authority in the entire Wuxian Kingdom, and she also holds the responsibility of communicating with the Divine Tree. But only Xuan Xuan can now get close to the Sacred Tree, and resurrecting the little star requires the power of the Undead Tree. ”
The three big men sat together, Xing Zeyuan in the carriage was slightly frozen, and his face was serene as if he was taking a nap.
"Undead Tree ......"
Qian Ling murmured slightly, there are not many sacred trees in the world, and there is a sacred tree called "Fusang" in Yanggu, which provides a habitat for the sun's candles and brings them the benefit of gathering the essence of the sun. And this immortal tree is rumored to have a lifespan comparable to that of a god.
"Let's go check it out first, hopefully. ”
Ganso was actually a little worried, and even though a position equivalent to a king like a shrine maiden was very powerful, it was also subject to many constraints. After not seeing each other for so long, Jiang Xuan should have helped them, because Luo Tian had said before that when he was in Wugu City, Jiang Xuan had secretly run back, but now she must be restrained.
Two horse-drawn carriages slowly moved along the tranquil Wuxian Trail, flanked by plains and steep peaks ahead. At the end of the road, you can see several peaks, tall and towering, in a circle, like enclosing the earth into a valley. These secluded landscapes are completely isolated from the world, and seem to be eternal life, immortalized in the precipitation of history.
"It's beautiful. ”
Duan Qin opened another window, attracted by the dark mountains and rivers, here is like a fairyland, not far away from the immortal palace under the green vine burst out of the green light, like a sky-high gem, giving people not extravagant, but beautiful touch.
This seems to be the place of life elves, Duan Qin has only read about it in books, if the Fertile Country is far away from the noisy rural scenery, this is the place of intersection with the divine realm.
Xiao Fu leaned over to Duan Qin, and when he looked out the window, he quickly immersed himself in it. Having just experienced war, they need this kind of solace in their hearts. Duan Qin soon had an urge to play the piano, the feeling given to her here was too strong, her beautiful eyes were occupied by green mountains and rivers, and spring flowers seemed to bloom in them.
"Uh-huh. ”
Ying and Duan Qin, who are young and stupid, are really beautiful, but ...... She wanted to watch it with Xiaoxing.
With his palm on the back of her head, Van'ao touched Youyou's head and took it into his arms.
In front of the god-like peak, two carriages are about to enter the Immortal Palace.
The horses stopped, and the seven got out of the car.
"Don't say disrespectful words, don't do impulsive things, don't make it difficult for you!"
As Brother Ganso spoke, the six of them nodded in unison.
The immortal palace did not have a layer after another, standing in front of the palace, and you couldn't even see behind it. In front of the pillars full of vines, the seven men prepared to step up the steps.
There was no hindrance to come here, because the shrine maiden had given the order, and the portrait of the red shield was known to everyone, and that was the biggest decision she had ever made. But now it was different, a male voice made the soles of the feet of the seven people hang in the air.
"Everyone, stop. ”
Gan Suo stretched out his arm and motioned for everyone to step back, and at the same time, a rickety old man walked out of the immortal palace and entered the square on the three steps and appeared in front of the seven people. He was dressed in sackcloth, with a round bun, only two teeth left in his mouth, and his face was full of wrinkles, but he did not have the demeanor of an old man, and his eyes were bright.
Among the seven Red Shield Members, only Luo Tian knew Wu Xianguo the best, and at this time, he stepped forward and folded his hands and bent down slightly.
"Hello Elder, we are the Red Shield Mercenary Regiment, and we want to meet the witch. ”
"Red Shield, I've heard of you, my companions. I am the second elder of the ten elders of this immortal palace, just call me that. ”
The second elder was not as rigid and pedantic as they thought, and there was even a lot of humor in his words, and there was a smile on his face, which seemed to be very easy to speak.
"Hello Second Elder, can we see Xuanxuan?"
The seven people watched, and Youyou looked at the second elder with a blank eye, hoping that he would nod. But the kind old man did not shake his head slightly, as they thought.
"You can't see her. ”
Youyou frowned and preemptively said:
"Why?"
This seemed to be the time when she reacted the fastest, and the second elder did not answer immediately, but looked at Luo Tian.
"You're Senyun Emperor Luo Tian?"
"Yes, Second Elder!"
"You stayed in Wugu City, and the witch once returned to the city in violation of the law, just because of you, remember?"
"Yes. ”
Luo Tian could hear the point of the elder's words, and he said...... Violations!
"Since you remember, go away, don't embarrass her. Although she is your companion, you should think about her, she violates the law twice for you, and if she violates the law again, the position of this witch will not be guaranteed! The Immortal Palace is not a one-person's palace, and she is not a one-person witch, her responsibility is heavier than you think, because Wu Xianguo has the way to the divine realm, understand?"
The second elder expressed his position directly, which made the Red Shield Seven a little embarrassed, Luo Tian looked at the people around him, it seemed that he couldn't make sense, because there was something before, and it had to depend on everyone!
As the oldest man in the group, Ganso spoke directly.
"Elder, what we are doing is to resurrect one person, and if she can help us, we can not see her, and we will never even disturb your peace again. ”
"Grandpa, please, is it okay?"
The eyes of the young treasure were full of pleading, but the expression of the second elder did not change.
"The resurrection is too important, even if Xing Zeyuan's soul is still in existence and his body is intact, he still needs the power of the Immortal Tree, you can find this, it should be the path you lead, right?"
"Yes!"
Luo Tian nodded, and then said:
"Please also rest assured that the junior knows that Wuxian Country is a closed country, so he has never told outsiders the mystery of the immortal tree. ”
"Yes, it's clever, but I'm sorry, the use of the Undead Tree requires the approval of all the Elders, and even if I approve it alone, it won't help. I know that Xing Zeyuan is the one who makes the witch think about it at night......"
Youyou's expression moved, and he said this...... Sister Xuanxuan likes Xiaoxing.
"I really like that girl, you are her companions, Xing Zeyuan is the person she loves, and I want to help her, so now I am talking to you in this tone, but the decision of the ten elders will definitely disappoint you. We are all very rational in the matter of the Immortal Tree, and its power cannot be used at will. ”
"Love ......"
As he muttered, he suddenly approached the second elder who had just finished speaking. She bent her knees and knelt down the steps with a thud.
"Infant ......"
Duan Qin didn't expect that Youyou's reaction today was too fast, and she didn't know what to say, so she knelt like this. As long as Xing Zeyuan can live, she is willing to do whatever she does!
Kneeling is a sign of weakness, can elicit pity and sympathy from others, is a way to ask for help, and is an expression of determination. Seeing Youyou kneeling, the two elders had nothing to say, and the other six people had the same posture.
Ganso is old, but he kneels naturally, for the sake of Xiaoxing, he is willing to pay even his life, let alone kneel. Qian Ling was a divine beast, and kneeling down was a shame for him, but he knelt quickly this time, and all the pride on his face was collected. Duan Qin knelt down directly regardless of the pleated skirt of the dust, and Xiao Fu too, what princess of a country, what dignity, not as important as the head of the regiment!
Fan Ao was by Poor Ling's side, and he was not slower than the others in the slightest.
On the side of the mountain, in front of the Immortal Palace, facing the indomitable Red Shield Mercenary Regiment of tens of thousands of troops, in order to resurrect Xing Zeyuan, knelt directly on the steps.
"You ......"
The second elder was dumbfounded, in the Eastern Regions Realm, people kneeling always have a servile performance, while in the Western Regions Realm, kneeling is more about life. The seven people present were from the Eastern Regions and the Western Regions. But in front of Xing Zeyuan's life, these are nothing.
"Everything for us is guarded by Xing Zeyuan, it is he who gives us a home, and it is he who allows us to meet. Today, we're here to protect him!"
What Ganso said was not particularly touching, perhaps because he was dead, but everyone was extremely determined. They used to understand the kind of people who kneel down and beg for help, kneeling doesn't solve the problem, and it's annoying to kneel all the time, until they actually experience something like this, and they don't know how much determination this action requires.
In the palace, Jiang Xuan, who was wearing a white shirt on his upper body and a red dress on his lower body, knelt on the ground. She is nearly two meters tall and looks tall on her knees.
"Great Elder, let me go. ”
There was a lot of pleading in Xuanxuan's voice, and his tone was soft. After staying in the Immortal Palace for so long, she knew what kind of person the Great Elder was, and if he was hard and disrespectful to her, it would increase her anger, so she could only be soft, stick to her, and make her agree.
As the witch of Wuxian Country, Jiang Xuan knew that Red Shield had come to her country two days ago, and she had been waiting, and she finally came today! There must be something wrong with them when they came to find her, the elders of the Immortal Palace would not let them in, she only hoped that they would not leave until she went out.
"Look at the way you look now, as a glorious shrine maiden, since you kneel here, what is your dignity as a shrine maiden?"
"Great Elder, I know that there is something wrong with me doing this, but they are very important people to me, I am going out to find them, I hope you agree, I do not want to disobey you. ”
"What do you mean by being a witch now? What do you mean by being a shrine maiden? The witch is in charge of the immortal tree, and if you connect with it, you will gain power, and you will have a chance to become a god. In the country of Wuxian, countless people are fighting for the status of the witch and the chance to become a god, you are good, you have become a witch, you have violated the rules three times and twice, and now you still want to meet outsiders! This is the first time?"
The crutches in the Great Elder's hand kept hitting the ground with a loud sound. Her wrinkles trembled with anger, and she couldn't figure out why she was so stubborn.
"The third time!"
"You also know that this is the third time, a few outsiders, more important than the identity of the shrine maid?"
"Great Elder, they are not outsiders, they have saved me, protected me, and saved Wugu City, I haven't repaid the favor yet!"
Xuan Xuan pleaded, but the Great Elder wouldn't let him go.
