Chapter 14: Six States and Eight Famines
"Legend has it that the six major states of the Illusory Realm have their own guardian beasts, so can you tell me about the guardian beasts of other states?" Ling Feng became even more interested when he heard Ling Xuan talk about Qinglong.
"The entire Phantom Domain, in fact, is not only divided into six states, but the six states occupy a relatively wide area and have great influence, while other places that do not belong to the six states are called 'waste'. According to the history books of Longzhou, there are eight wildernesses outside the phantom domain, and there are nine wildernesses in the phantom domain. These two desolations are very different, outside the phantom realm is another dimensional plane, and within the phantom realm, the nine desolations are small places except for the six states. Ling Xuan seemed very excited about this issue, and said, "As for the guardian beasts of the six major states, they are: Longzhou Qinglong in the east, Gou Chen in Yuzhou in the middle, Xuanwu in the northwest, Yanzhou Vermilion Bird in the south, Jingzhou White Tiger in the west, and Teng Snake in Ningzhou in the northeast. ”
Ling Feng listened very seriously, and after Ling Xuan finished speaking, he said silently in his heart: Yuzhou Gou Chen, Manzhou Xuanwu, Yanzhou Vermilion Bird......
"For these things in the six states, in fact, they are recorded in most historical books, but there are only a few books about the Eight Wildernesses, because most people think that the Eight Wildernesses do not exist. Ling Xuan was excited and continued to preach.
"Isn't the Eight Desolations on the continent of Six States?" Ling Feng asked curiously.
"The Eight Desolations are outside the Six States. It has been accurately recorded that in this spatial plane, the Eight Desolations do not exist, and to enter the Eight Desolations, you have to pass through the spatial rift and go to the space where the Eight Desolations are located. Ling Xuan was happy to answer his questions.
"I heard from my grandfather that there is a place called the Sacred Realm in the legend, so what is it?" Ling Feng asked.
Ling Xuan was very patient, or he was very excited, and continued to answer Ling Xuan's questions:
"Legend has it that the Holy Domain is also located in another dimensional plane, and only when you reach the Great Perfection of the Sage Realm can you enter from the Divine Island of the Phantom Domain, and the Demon Domain, which is opposed to the Holy Domain, is located in the same spatial plane, and you also need to pass through the Fengshen Island to enter from the Illusory Domain. And the Sealing God Island was sealed by the God of Space a thousand years ago. ”
Ling Feng was puzzled, why did the God of Space want to seal the Sealing God Island?
"Fengshen Island, legend has it that you can become a god by entering the Sanctuary through Fengshen Island, and Fengshen Island doesn't know if it really exists or is sealed by the god of space. In the entire Illusory Realm, there are hundreds of strong people in the Holy Realm alone, and there are more than a dozen people who are perfect, and they cannot enter the Holy Realm, they cannot become gods, and they cannot live forever. ”
"Can you become a god and live forever?" Ling Feng was excited, and his voice became louder.
"Legend has it that it can, otherwise there wouldn't be so many Sage Realm masters looking for Fengshen Island. But after all, it is a legend, and it is said that the god of space is still alive, but who has seen it? Therefore, these cannot be fully believed. Ling Xuan said, and at the same time warned Ling Feng that he couldn't forget more precious things in order to find eternal life.
Only then did Ling Xuan realize that he was too excited, as if he had pulled away.
"By the way, what you asked me was what was on my badge, how did I say that I became a god. Ling Xuan said.
Ling Feng also reacted at this time, the question he asked at the beginning had not been solved, how could he run far.
"This badge is unique to state-level internal officials, and above the badge, it is roughly a green dragon hovering, with dragon scales in the middle. Ling Xuan's voice was very low, and even Ling Feng could barely hear clearly.
"Then what are the symbolic meanings of these?" Ling Feng also asked in a low voice.
"This ......" Ling Xuan hesitated for a moment, then said, "The green dragon symbolizes Longzhou, and the dragon scales represent the position of this holder. ”
After all, it's about identity, and it can't be exposed casually. After revealing her badge at the auction house before, the deacons didn't say a word in front of everyone, and the lady who led the way after only knew that they were extremely high, but did not know their true identity. The identity of the internal officials in Longzhou is kept secret by all Longzhou people and cannot be disclosed to others.
"Oh. Ling Feng seemed to know something, answered a word, and didn't ask any more questions.
It was late at night, the moonlight was shining on the earth, and the buildings on the side of the road blocked the moonlight, and it was sometimes dark as we went.
After another period of time, he finally arrived at the Ling Mansion.
As soon as the two of them dismounted, Ling Yuntian ran out of the gate and threw himself into Ling Feng's arms. Ling Xuan was on the side, looking at the two brothers and smiling.
Ling Nuo walked around the yard, very uneasy.
"No, you better go and rest first, there are many things to do tomorrow. Ling Nuo's wife persuaded.
"If they don't come back, how can I sleep!" Ling Nuo was very impatient, and continued to walk around the yard very impatiently.
"It's so late, maybe they're staying at the market?" Ling Nuo's wife continued to persuade.
Ling Nuo was very impatient, his steps did not stop, and his face was full of worry.
"Impossible, Xuan Ming is going back to Tianmu City in the morning, he won't go back without saying goodbye. Ling Nuo said impatiently.
Ling Nuo's wife was angry on the spot and roared angrily, "What's the point of you being in such a hurry?
Ling Nuo was also furious and said, "Leave me alone, you go and rest by yourself first, and I will take care of tomorrow's affairs!"
Ling Nuo's wife turned around to leave, but someone ran in and said, "Sir, Mr. Ling Xuan is back, right at the main gate of Ling Mansion." ”
When Ling Nuo and his wife heard this, they forgot everything that had just happened and ran towards the main entrance.
As soon as Ling Xuan ascended the stone steps, Ling Nuo had already run to the gate and shouted, "Xuan!
Ling Xuan replied and approached Ling Nuo.
"Talk inside. Ling Xuan spoke.
Ling Nuo smiled, and with a gesture of please, the two of them left here and went back to Ling Nuo's room.
Ling Nuo's wife was also very happy and smiled, went down the stone steps and grabbed Ling Feng's shoulders, and said:
"Feng'er, you're not hurt!"
Ling Feng hurriedly broke free and said, "Oh mother, how old I am, you still treat me like a child." ”
Ling Feng's mother also felt a little embarrassed, Ling Feng was already eighteen years old and had already become an adult, so it was really indecent to pull it like this.
"Mother isn't worried about you? Ling Feng's mother explained.
"Feng'er, are you okay!" Ling Yuntian repeated his mother's previous words on the side, and after speaking, he saw that his brother wanted to beat him, so he ran into the gate.
Ling Feng didn't chase after him, and said to his mother: "Mother, I'm already so old, don't worry about it." The outside world is really exciting, and this time I went to the market with my uncle to actually gain a lot, and I hope to be able to see more of the outside world. ”
Ling Feng's mother had always felt sad, but she didn't expect that her concern was restraining her son. The son wanted to see the outside world, and he ignored his feelings for his safety. This time Ling Feng and Ling Xuan went to the market, Ling Nuo only told her that she was going to the market, and she didn't know the real purpose.
"Well, it seems that my mother is in charge of too much. She was silent for a long time before she spoke. The eyes are moist, but they look bright.
Ling Yuntian leaned on the gate and peeked at his brother and mother, Ling Feng looked at him, and he made a grimace again. Ling Feng glanced at his mother and chased after Ling Yuntian.
The mother walked up the stone steps and watched her two sons frolicking in the front yard, and a harmonious picture came into her mind, and a smile appeared on her face again.
In Ling Nuo's room, the two sat opposite each other, Ling Nuo picked up the kettle and poured water, handed it to Ling Xuan, Ling Xuan took it without hesitation.
Ling Nuo used a secret technique to cover the entire room, and the room was extremely quiet, and no sound outside the window could be heard.
"Then tell me about your judgment now!" Ling Nuo asked.
