(7) Dripping blood Bodhisattva
At the head of the city, there are fierce battles and brutal battles;
In the lake, there is the melodious sound of flutes and innocent laughter;
It is also in the Wanqiu region, but between the distance of ninety miles, there is a heavenly difference in the region.
The boys and girls on the bamboo raft will surely mature in this tempering of blood and fire;
In the ever-changing world of Jiuzhou, welcome the baptism of fate and achieve an extraordinary life.
"Sister Yue, look!"
Xuanyuan Xing on the bamboo raft looked at the sky and exclaimed loudly.
Yan Yue and Lu Zisong looked at the same time in the direction that Xuanyuan Xing was pointing.
Vaguely, I can see a large flock of birds, flying fast at a height of about ten miles away.
Because the distance was too far, only a large area of black pressure could be seen.
They couldn't identify it at all, it was the Bird Silver Armor Army led by General Gao Qing of Lanling.
Although nearly one-third of the losses in the battle of Wanqiu were lost, more than 2,000 birds crossed the sky, which was still spectacular.
"Little uncle, is that Uncle Heng's army? Could it be that they have come back from Luoshen Peak?"
Yu Yue was also surprised.
"It's not Daddy's troops!"
Regulus's tone was affirmative.
"Daddy's bird army never flies next to each other, they will be divided into several groups, there are three echelons in the front, middle and back, and the march is arranged according to the upper, middle and lower levels, and there are many single or double flying generals around the queue, Daddy said that this is called strategy. Besides, it's not flying in the right direction!"
Xuanyuan Xing has loved to read military books since he was a child, and often listens to Xuanyuan Heng and his generals talking about military formations, and quickly denied Yu Yue's speculation.
"Xing'er is right, they are heading in the direction of Luoshen Peak, if the prince returns to the city, it should be the opposite direction. ”
Lu Zisong was also full of doubts.
"As far as I know, Wanqiu City's bird army has been all dispatched, they shouldn't be Xuanyuan's army, are they ······?"
At this time, the air team was far away, and only black dots the size of rice grains could be seen.
At the end of the lotus leaf, a navy blue flying bird gliding quickly interrupted Lu Zisong's thoughts.
"Xing'er, Yue'er, you found a good place, and you didn't call me!"
But in the blink of an eye, the navy blue bird was hovering over the bamboo raft.
The breeze with its wings flapping blows up layers of waves on the surface of the lake.
The woman standing on the back of the bird has slender eyebrows, lightly drawn into the temples, and her eyes are like pearls, like water and tender.
Although he is slightly thin, his chest is convex and his hips are curvy, and his curves are perfect.
The clothes are similar to those of the moon, and the short tops and skirts are hand-sewn with silk threads of different colors to form a patch of fabric of different colors, which is very exotic.
She is the beautiful woman next to Gongsun Eying before the Wanqiu War.
Entrusted by Gongsun Eying, he came here to pick up Xuanyuan Xing and others back to the city.
And her spirit beast mount, named Blue Bird.
Because of its gorgeous navy blue feathers and extremely fast speed, it is famous in Jiuzhou.
The blue bird is a mild type of spirit animal, herbivorous and insectivory, and has no offensive power;
But the flight speed exceeds that of the swift.
If no one sits on it, it can fly at full strength, and it can reach 300 kilometers in half an hour.
"Auntie, you're here too!"
Yu Yue jumped to say hello.
"Aunt Susu, is there something wrong with our Wanqiu City?
The smart Xuanyuan Xing thought the same as Lu Zisong, worried that the troops just now were likely to pass through Wanqiu, or more likely, to raid Wanqiu.
"Aunt Susu, Aunt Susu, you kid, you have said that you can be the same as Yue'er, call me aunt, anyway, we are all the same ······"
Su Su suddenly felt that something was wrong, and she didn't finish her words, and avoided the topic with a smile.
"Your mother is fine, but your father told me to take good care of your mother, she has something to do, how dare I run away. I'm here to see your Uncle Lu to discuss some things in the clan. ”
Su Su knew that Xuanyuan Star was weird and didn't want him to see through it.
Hurriedly gave Lu Zisong a look.
"Yes, Xing'er and Yue'er, you play by yourself, and I'll discuss some things with your aunt. The ship is also going to dock, and we will return to Wanqiu in a while!"
Lu Zisong knew that there was a change in the city, and after tacitly taking over the conversation, he flew lightly to the stone bridge not far ahead.
Su Su deliberately made a relaxed appearance to the two children, smiled and nodded, and then fell to the bridge.
Xuanyuan Xing is indeed smart and quick-witted, but after all, he is only a ten-year-old child.
Listening to Su Susu's words, he quickly dispelled his doubts and started having fun again.
"How's Wanqiu doing?"
Lu Zisong had already seen the clue, and he didn't go around the corner, took Su Su's hand, and asked eagerly.
"Brother Lu, rest assured, Lanling's 50,000 troops have retreated, and Wanqiu is safe and sound!"
Su Su described Wanqiu's battle situation in detail, and Lu Zisong was amazed when he heard it.
While Su Su and Lu Zisong were talking, the two children on the bamboo raft were also having a lot of fun.
They sat on a bamboo raft together, barefoot on all fours, and slapped the water to their heart's content.
Water splashed all over the body and face, and cheerful laughter echoed through the mountains.
"Xing'er, let's give this lake a name! ”
Yu Yue looked at the endless lotus flowers, pouted, thoughtful.
"What's the name, Sister Yue?"
Xuanyuan Xing scratched his cheeks and scratched his head, and followed Yue'er to think, there was something wrong.
"Then let's call it 'Xingyue Lake'!"
Yue'er's big eyes flashed, and she clapped her hands and smiled.
"There is a 'Jingyue Lake' in my clan, and the scenery is also very beautiful; there is a 'star' in your name, and I have a 'moon'; so it's called 'Xingyue Lake'. ”
"Good name! Good name!" 'Xingyue Lake' is the lake of Xing'er and Sister Yue'er, and every time I celebrate my birthday in June, I invite Sister Yue to come here to row boats and see lotus flowers, and I will play the best flute music for Sister Yue!"
Xuanyuan Xing danced happily.
At this point,
Yu Yue took off a necklace from her neck and stared at Xuanyuan Xing's handsome face.
"Xing'er, Sister Yue gave this to you as a gift for your tenth birthday. ”
Xuanyuan Xing curiously took the object in Yue'er's hand and looked at it carefully.
I saw that on the chain woven with purple silk threads, there was a warm jade like a green leaf.
In the middle of the jadeite jade, a thumb-sized, crimson gemstone is inlay.
The most peculiar thing is that the red gemstone is not connected with the jadeite jade.
It's like there's somehow, magical power that will be a ruby, suspended in the center of the jadeite.
It's like a bright red dew on a green leaf.
"Wow!"
Xing'er was dumbfounded, delighted, and surprised.
"Sister Yue, what a beautiful gemstone necklace, this glowing gem hangs in the middle, it won't fall off!"
"Come, Sister Yue will bring it to Xing'er. ”
Carefully and solemnly, she tied the necklace.
"This is called 'Dripping Blood Bodhisattva', the most precious gem of our Miao Sang clan, I picked it when I was six years old, and it is the only one in the whole of Jiuzhou, and my brother Xing'er has to carry it all the time. ”
Yu Yue's tone was serious, and she put on a serious look.
"Sister Yue, I promise, I will always carry this 'Blood Bodhisattva'. ”
Xuanyuan didn't know what was so peculiar about this blood ruby.
But from the look in the eyes of the concubine, he understood how valuable this gift was.
He also felt how much she cared.
"I was originally going to give it to you tonight when I celebrated my birthday, but I don't know when Uncle Heng and they will come back, it's too late, and there are so many people, I'm afraid I'll forget it." ”
Yan Yue rubbed it with her hand, and the "blood Bodhisattva" on Xing'er's neck;
continued: "You see, the jade and jade around this drop of blood bodhisattva were polished by my own hands not long ago according to the shape of the leaves of our bodhisattva tree.
I also pestered my father to use Yuan Force to refine and open the space-time realm in it, which can be used as a reservoir;
At present, there is only one room for a hu, and if you cultivate in the future, you can continue to expand its capacity······"
Xuanyuan Xing's mouth opened wide in surprise and swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
"And whatever!"
Looking at Xing'er's stunned appearance, Yue'er pursed her lips and chuckled.
"Xing'er, you haven't noticed it yet! inside this leaf-shaped jadeite, there is also a purple auspicious knot. ”
Xing'er's eyes widened, and she looked carefully at the place where Yue'er was fingering.
"Really, really! I thought it was the texture of the jade itself!"
"I knitted the auspicious knot with ten of my own hair, but it took a lot of effort to quench it;
Because the blood-dripping Bodhisattva only has a sense with me, so dipping my hair in the jade will produce the power of induction and summoning with the Bodhisattva in the middle;
So, he won't fall, so you don't have to worry;
And, as long as you carry it, I can sense my little brother Xing'er even from a long distance. ”
After listening to Yue'er's explanation, Xuanyuan Xing was silent.
Just press the blood-dripping Bodhisattva tightly to his chest.
A wave of warmth welled up in my heart.
At the same time, he also developed a belief: he would carry this magical necklace for the rest of his life, protect it for the rest of his life, and not let it be damaged in the slightest.
"Yue'er, she ......"
Yue'er's actions were seen by her uncle Lu Zisong.
He was about to stop it, but he was dragged back by Su Susu.
"Su Su, you see, Yue'er seems to have given the blood Bodhisattva to Xing'er, how is this good!"
Lu Zisong was a little worried.
Su Su naturally knew that this "Blood Bodhisattva" was a rare treasure, and it was the dream of the people of the whole Jiuzhou Cultivation Yuan, and it was a divine elixir.
She naturally knew what it meant to the Miao Sang clan as a sacred relic of the clan.
But she knew that this was her own choice and decision.
"Brother Lu. ”
Su Su looked at Lu Zisong affectionately.
"The Bodhisattva tree of our Miao Sang tribe 'blooms once every ten years, blooms for a hundred years, bears thousands of seeds in a hundred years, and one of them is a divine product', this 'one' means that in addition to the nine hundred and ninety-nine purple Bodhisattva seeds, this red 'blood Bodhisattva seed';
Legend has it that it is invulnerable, can bring the dead back to life, and can allow cultivators to instantly improve their Yuan Force cultivation for more than ten years, however, these are the legends of the ancestors in the clan!"
Lu Zisong looked at Su Su with a serious look, did not argue, just nodded silently.
"You also know that our Miao Sang people respect their mothers, and their children follow their mother's surnames, and in the eyes of foreign people, our Miao Sang women are very strong;
But Brother Lu, others don't know, but you know very well that the women of our Miao Sang tribe are loyal and affectionate to men;
As long as you identify the person in your heart, you will give him everything you have, even if it is your own life!"
At this point, Su Su's voice began to tremble and choke, and her eyes were filled with tears.
At this time, Lu Zisong hugged Su Su's thin waist tightly, stroked her soft long hair, and sighed deeply.
He understands very well that it is precisely because of Susu's simplicity and warmth, and because of Susu's steadfastness and persistence in love;
Only then did they break through the barriers and get together today.
Su Su adjusted her mood, leaned on Lu Zisong's shoulder, and smiled at the two children on the lake.
"Although Yue'er is not yet thirteen years old, she already has the thoughts of her daughter's family, and as her aunt, I know best;
The blood Bodhisattva is a sacred relic of my Miao Sang tribe, but it is only available to Yue'er, and it has been worn on her for more than six years;
If you want to say reluctant, she is more reluctant than anyone else;
But she can give it to Xing'er today, this is providence, and it is fate;
We should only respect her choice and support her decision;
I think even if Sister Chief were here, she would probably agree. ”
"Okay, good, good! I just want to say hello to the children, look at you, a bunch of big truths, as if I was a wicked person who beats mandarin ducks. ”
Lu Zisong prevaricated with a smile and quickly changed the topic.
"By the way, Su Su, when Wanqiu was fighting, did you make a move?"
"That's not true, Madam is worried about Xing'er, she told me to leave before the war, but I still don't feel at ease, I stayed in the back mountain for a while, and when I saw that the battle was decided, I came to look for you. It is not early in the morning, and we should go back, so as not to worry Madame. ”
Su Su looked at the moon and stars frolicking in the lake, full of relief.
"Madame called you here before the war?"
After listening to Su Su's words, Lu Zisong hurriedly asked.
Madame also specially instructed me to take a detour to the back mountain, otherwise Wanqiu is less than a hundred miles away from here, and at my speed, I would have already arrived here. What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"
Su Su didn't understand what it meant.
"Madame is not afraid of danger, the war is imminent, but her mind is so meticulous, she is worthy of the name of a talented woman. ”
Lu Zisong sighed.
continued: "I see that Madame called you, not only to pick up Xing'er back to the city, but I am afraid that Wanqiu will not be able to protect and it will be difficult for me to get out, so I will entrust Xing'er to us, she knows that you and I spirit beasts fly very fast, if you encounter a strong enemy, although you can't win, but you have no problem with the children to retreat." ”
"I see, no wonder ······"
Su Su listened to Lu Zisong's explanation and nodded again and again.
"That's not all, my stupid Susu, even if there is no such danger, Madam will not let you interfere, the battle of Wanqiu. ”
Lu Zisong pulled Su Su to sit on the railing of the stone bridge, and continued with a smile.
"Susu, don't forget, you are the elder of our Miao Sang clan, if the Lanling army finds out that you help Xuanyuan, no matter what the victory or defeat of this siege is, then the Lanling army will inevitably hold a grudge and burn the war to my Miao Sang, Madame is already disgusted with battlefield fighting, and also knows that our Miao Sang has not participated in the struggle between various ethnic countries for many years, and has always remained neutral, how can she hope to harm the innocent Miao Sang people because of your participation. ”
"Oh! Madame is really well-intentioned. ”
Su Su's admiration is beyond words. "It seems that my sister asked me to come to Wanqiu to talk to Mrs. Wang Ye about Xing'er and Yue'er, and I came to the right place. ”
"Yes! Our Miao Sang people do not rely on force to prosper the country, the tribe to silkworm handicraft, jade mining industry, so abundant food and clothing, the treasury is abundant, in the Jiuzhou nationality is the richest, coveted people are not a few, if you want to long-term stability, marriage is also a helpless move, I originally did not agree very much, but as far as today's events are concerned, I have to admire the vision of the chief's sister, I only hope that Xing'er Yue'er will live up to our intentions. ”
Lu Zisong sighed a lot.
"Alright! Alright! Nag, you think too much, think too far. Nag again and the sun is setting!"
Su Su was full of joy, pulled Lu Zisong, and walked down the stone bridge together.
Then he shouted in the direction of the bamboo raft: "Children, it's not too early, it's time to go back!"
Lu Zisong also smiled and beckoned.
When the two children heard the cry of the concubine, they got up and prepared to go ashore.
Then
Xing'er was cold, put her lips on Yue'er's pink cheeks, and kissed them gently.
Then he flew up in the air with Yue'er's steps and ran towards the stone bridge.
The sudden kiss made Yu Yue's cheeks suddenly smeared with crimson.
"Sister Yue, when I grow up, I will definitely marry you as my wife. ”
When Xuanyuan Star leaped, he turned back and shouted to the moon.
"Okay, you Xuanyuan Xing, stop for me, you not only steal my 'Phantom Streamer', but also bully me, I'm your sister Yue!"
The shy face of the concubine, with a swollen face, followed closely.
"Sister Yue, you know that I can't forget it! This month, you have often practiced 'lame cat walking' in front of my eyes, and I have already learned it!"
Looking at Xuanyuan Xing's agile steps on the surface of the lake, Su Susu's face was full of astonishment.
Silently recited in his heart: "Yue'er began to practice 'Phantom Streamer' at the age of eleven, and broke through the first realm 'Chasing the Wind' in a year, and has now initially dabbled in the second realm 'Stasis', which is already a rare genius, and now, Xing'er has learned the essentials of 'Chasing the Wind' in less than a month without opening the cultivation yuan, and the future creation is unlimited, but Mrs. Eying doesn't like to kill, and she has never taught Xing'er the method of cultivating the yuan, which is really a pity!"
While Su Su was pondering, Xing'er had already flown to the shore and hid behind her.
"Aunt Susu...... Youngest maternal aunt...... Help me!"
"I don't care, who told you to bully Yue'er. ”
Susu deliberately makes it bad.
"Xing'er doesn't dare to bully her, I want to marry Sister Yue'er when I grow up. Xing'er knows that Aunt Su Su and Uncle Zisong came to Wanqiu this time to give us an engagement!"
The Xuanyuan star people are big ghosts, and they said seriously.
After Su Su and Lu Zisong heard this, they couldn't help laughing.
"What kind of marriage is engaged, you are just bullying me, see if I don't kick your little ass!"
Yu Yue also flew ashore and kicked Xuanyuan Star again.
"Save the star, save the star, auntie, Uncle Zisong......"
There was another burst of fighting and laughter on Xingyue Lake.
