Chapter 60: The Stone Stairs of the Heavenly Destiny
Qingying Mountain originates in the Weng Shen Shibo Snow Mountain, and even the peaks of Tang Sona meander down and go straight into the Yuchuan. Its peak name is "Nightmare Peak", which means "Nightmare Land", and the cliffs stand tall. At the turn of summer and autumn, the snow rises sharply, and the waterfall from the top of the nightmare goes downstream, which is extremely spectacular.
The snow-capped mountains stand tall, the scroll-shaped clouds on the horizon are like burning braziers, and the ice leaks, ice ditches, ice caves, and large ice waterfalls are displayed in front of you, which is dangerous and mysterious, and it is impossible to prevent it.
Is this the hometown of 096? What kind of person is 096 shaped by such a landscape?
While thinking about it, Sanchen and Rong Xiao Geqi quarreled. Shenchen pays attention to safety in everything, and Rong Xiao Ge Qi prefers to take risks, and the ancient coffin was offended by Rong Xiao Ge Qi and the beggars before, new hatred and old grudges, and the two had a disagreement after traveling not far away. Fortunately, Shenchen is quite tolerant, and with his extremely rich climbing experience, he has nothing to do along the way.
The harsh environment of the snow-capped mountains is still on the outside, and everyone knows that no one in the Red Letter Squad knows that the truly terrifying enemy has not yet appeared.
In order to relieve everyone's nervousness, on the road Sanchen told a beautiful legend about Qingying. Although Shen Ling and the others were not interested in listening to any stories, they asked, "If it is convenient for Grandpa, tell us about the coffin next to you last night." ”
Shen Chen sighed and said, "That coffin...... It's not that I can't say it, it's all old, and I can't remember some details. ”
Legend has it that Qingying's second royal highness fell in love with the princess of the Emperor of Heaven, and the two agreed to get married. Unexpectedly, the princess's maid also fell in love with His Royal Highness at the same time, but she didn't dare to say this love, and kept it silently in her heart.
Later, the turmoil arose, the gods and demons of the heavens were in turmoil, and the second highness was ordered to go on an expedition, and before leaving, he needed to forge a sword with the blood of a close friend. The princess is deeply in love with her lover, and is determined to forge a sword with her body, although she will not regret it. When His Royal Highness learned about it, he would rather be defeated and die than sacrifice himself for the princess, so he went to the battlefield with a naked sword.
The maid took a fancy to the lingering compassion of the two, and her heart was like a knife, and she was willing to die for the princess, in order to seek the victory of the Second Highness and the peace of Qingying. The maid crossed the seven peaks and twelve cliffs of Qingying alone with her bare feet, and sacrificed her sword at the top of the nightmare peak, and disappeared.
But the battle was eventually lost, and it was lost miserably. The Second Highness fell into the sea and died, and Qingying, along with the Seventy-two Kingdoms of Yuchuan, disappeared forever overnight.
The silvery white snow-capped peaks are accompanied by the rising morning star, and the reckless wasteland is a backdrop for this ancient and mysterious epic.
He sighed and said, "If you guess correctly, this great war is the catastrophe provoked by Phi Fu five hundred years ago, right?"
The cold mountain wind carried ice and snow, and Shenchen's eyes almost cried, "Exactly." Back then, the Emperor of Heaven sent a fleet of thirty people to the sea to look for the body of His Royal Highness, but he didn't expect to encounter a big storm, and the crew fled and died...... Second Highness, Second Highness will not be able to return to his hometown after all. ”
When He Yan heard this, his heart was cold, the grass and trees were covered with frost, and the snow peaks and white clouds were still reflected in the blue waves, could it be that the soul of the Second Highness also returned here and wept?
Shen Ling was also quite emotional: "The ancient coffin that the grandfather cherishes so much, is it the remains of His Second Highness?"
Sanchen closed his eyes and clasped his hands together in front of his chest, "If the ancestors bless me, I can finally ask me to find His Royal Highness to come back, then Sanchen is willing to spend half his life to eliminate his sins." ”
Such a sentimental old thing Rong Xiao Ge Qi obviously can't understand at this age, jumping around on the rocks and urging the people behind. He Yan also recited a few words of mantra with Shenchen, hoping that the soul of the deceased would return to his homeland as soon as possible and enjoy peace.
After walking for a while, the eyes were full of white snow-capped mountains and silver glaciers, dust-free, holy as fairies. The 10,000-year-old Xuan Ice was piled up on the peak, and everyone didn't dare to speak loudly, for fear of causing an avalanche or inviting the corpses of the snow mountains, which would be tricky.
Samchen stopped: "Next, we have to walk a long section of the snow-capped mountain plank road, which is the famous Qingying Yilifetian." That place is extremely dangerous, you must not be careless, let alone be distracted from looking at those ancient rock murals, otherwise you will not be able to take care of the cliffs under your feet, and you will be helpless. ”
Hong Yi was suspicious: "There are murals on this cliff? ”
When the immortals arrived at the foot of the Heaven of Life, they looked far away, and realized that what Shenchen said was true. Looking up from the bottom of the gorge, there are more than a thousand feet of cliffs chopped by axes, and the clouds are only on the first line, all of which are shrouded by the turbulent fog, and they are boundless.
A thin stone staircase is cut into the air and paved, rising step by step, there are tens of thousands. The hanging waterfalls on both sides are like the Milky Way hanging upside down, rushing to the stone steps to be smooth and smooth, the clouds cover the fog, and it is difficult to distinguish the road ahead within five steps.
I don't know what kind of divine power is created in this scene, and I really use the sentence of the ancients, "The universe is counting, and you can ascend to the sky in one step." ”
The immortals did not expect that there would be a flowing waterfall in this cold land of Yuchuan, and Shen Chen explained: "There is a huge hot spring under the Qingying Mountain, and the hot air is hidden by the mountain, which has not been created by the outside world for thousands of years, so it has transformed into the wonder of the snow-capped mountain waterfall. ”
Rong Xiao Ge Qi told everyone to take off their shoes and go up barefoot, which was safer on the slippery stone steps. He Yan saw that those stone steps were rounded and flawless, and they were quite jadeized, and they had been polished endlessly for many years.
The stone steps are different from the cliff plank road, and the feet rise step by step, and there is nothing to rely on on the sides, and the feet are extremely slippery, and the slightest carelessness will fall into the dark abyss.
The immortals cautiously climbed the stone steps, and after walking for a long time, they felt sweaty all over their bodies. The waterfall roars out from the caves and rock crevices on both sides like a white line, the sound of the water tumbling and boiling, and the sound of the waves shaking the sky, making people's ears buzz. At this time, everyone was engrossed in staring at the feet of the people in front of them, and from time to time they had to dodge the flying rocks and branches, and the sound of the waves was so loud that it was impossible to hear even if someone spoke.
The clouds and mist are ethereal, and the stone steps of a life are becoming more and more narrow and smooth, and only one person can walk on one foot at the worst place. About 100 steps, the surrounding clouds and mist faded, move to change the scene, slightly raise the eyes of the thousands of rock walls in front of you, the eyes are dizzy, the eyes are dizzy.
Sanchen walked in front and tried to shout something, but he couldn't hear anything. The stone steps under your feet are staggered at this time, and there are many gravel that are about to collapse, which is extremely thrilling. The colors on the rock wall gradually became gorgeous, and there were colorful paintings, all of which were colossas as large as mountains, presumably the murals that Sanchen repeatedly reminded not to see.
He Yu remembered Shenchen's advice, inhaled and closed her breath, but her eyes didn't dare to blink. I don't know how far away it is to reach the end, and she is flustered at this time, and her feet are in great pain, so she has to be hard next to each other step by step.
Suddenly, he felt a violent shock in front of him, and raised his head, but he saw that the giant spirit monarch had collapsed to the extreme, swaying left and right, and there was no strength in mid-air, and he actually fell down the stone steps. This is no small matter, everyone is in a mess, and they are also staggering. Seeing the hideous cliffs, hanging up and cutting down, I am afraid that if I fall like a giant, I am afraid that I will be sifted into powder by the turbulence.
Seeing that he couldn't save people, Hong Yijun pounced and followed, and then grabbed three fingers of Juluo five feet under the bridge. The torrent and waves hit the two of them even more, and Hong Yi's blood was insufficient, and he couldn't lift his true qi when he hung in the air for a while.
At the last moment, Shen Ling threw the long flute on his waist into the air and threw it at Hong Yi, and under the waves, he lent a subtle force. Hongyi and Juluo are both masters, and they immediately understood, and leaned on the body of the flute to lift up, and then reluctantly climbed up again.
Seeing that the two of them were fine, Sanchen immediately knelt on the stone steps and thanked the ancestors for their kindness, and the rest of them were scared into a cold sweat. At this time, the sky is hidden in the clouds and mist like a bright line, and the peak of the nightmare is only in front of you.
