Volume 3 People in the Rivers and Lakes Chapter 49 Make a Wish
The farther north we went, the colder it became, almost to the point that the air turned into ice, and even the dry food in the package was frozen and hard enough to eat.
A group of four people endured the cold and starved, hurried in the night, Zhao Lingxue and the big porcelain bowl grew up in the palace master since childhood, where did they suffer this kind of living crime, they had already reached the point of difficulty.
Fortunately, Tu Tielin has been practicing in this area for several years, and he has long been familiar with this place, and he has rich experience in dealing with this kind of extremely cold weather, he taught several people how to resist the increasingly biting cold in the most effortless way, and at the same time, Xiao Jiansheng grabbed Zhao Lingxue's hand along the way, and used his own body temperature to warm up this Zhao Lingxue's body temperature.
Even so, after the group walked out for more than ten miles, Zhao Lingxue's hands were as piercing as ice cubes, and the large porcelain bowl was difficult to open his eyes.
Xiao Jiansheng glanced at Tu Tielin, who received his gaze, but did not respond.
Tu Tielin seemed to deliberately test the concentration of several people, and walked leisurely in front of a person silently, until he sensed that the breath of Zhao Lingxue and the big porcelain bowl was getting weaker and weaker, and then he distributed a half-yellow and half-purple pill the size of a grain of rice to each person, according to Tu Tielin, this pill looks inconspicuous, but the effect is not bad, it can effectively block the cold of the outside world, as if wearing an extra warm clothes for the body.
Sure enough, after Zhao Lingxue and the big porcelain bowl were served, after a few breaths, the faces of the two of them improved a lot, and they finally began to talk and laugh.
A group of four people finally saw the nine icicles when the sky was about to light up, and they were very tall and abnormal, as if they were straight to the legendary heavenly court, the nine pillars were not the same height, they were scattered like mountains, and the thickness was different, the thickest one needed more than a dozen people to hug it, and the thinnest one was comparable to a towering tree that had grown for a thousand years.
Nine icicles were scattered on a round platform according to a certain position, and when everyone got closer, they found that the round platform resembled a nine-petaled flower.
Why is it a nine-petal strange flower, Xiao Jiansheng guessed that it should be taken from the legendary meaning of nine-petal rebirth.
And the green lantern is suspended between the nine icicles, about a dozen feet from the round platform, the green lantern seems to burn and goes out, you don't look at the blue flame dim, if you look at it, it seems to be able to sense your state of mind, the green flame is moving in a curling way, it is very wonderful.
The green lantern is supported by a lotus flower, no core and no oil, and it is always burning and undefeated, and it has been burning for more than a thousand years, which may be the legendary ever-bright lamp.
Before the sun had risen, Tu Tielin didn't let everyone approach the teleportation array.
So everyone has been waiting not far away for the sun to rise and the light to spread over the earth.
When he had nothing to do, Tu Tielin had nothing to do with the teleportation array.
Although this teleportation array has gone through thousands of years, it is still intact as before, because it is located in an extremely cold place, except for Tu Tielin who has regarded this place as his home in recent years, basically no one cares, and many people do not know that there is such a teleportation array here.
According to Tu Tielin, this is not the real Dark Corner Domain, but only the entrance to the Dark Corner Domain, which led to many people in the know later mistakenly thinking that this teleportation array was part of the Dark Corner Domain, which is no wonder, after all, the war has ended for thousands of years, and many things have become memories, treating that bloody history as a shame in the history of cultivation, and few people have recorded it in the book for future generations to read.
However, who would have thought that after thousands of years, the remnants of the Spirit Lord would be ready to move again?
And that was the battle between the cultivators and the spirit lord forces back then
It didn't affect here, so that the teleportation array could be preserved to this day, as for how to reach the dark corner domain through the teleportation array, Tu Tielin didn't say, Xiao Jiansheng asked, Tu Tielin also deliberately avoided talking.
In fact, Tu Tielin was consciously protecting Xiao Jiansheng, and when Xiao Jiansheng had not grown to a certain height, it was not a good thing to know it.
Half an hour later, the warm red sun rose, completely dispelling the darkness, as if the dazzling light could be seen like a huge wave pushing the night towards the north, and further north it seemed that even the light could not reach, and it was still pitch black.
The light converged, shooting diagonally towards the teleportation array, the nine icicles that reached the sky were like people who had been hungry all night, and began to absorb the sunlight frantically, after about a stick of incense, the nine icicles began to refract the bright light, and the halo on the icicles flowed, gradually becoming transparent, and the strange minerals under the ice could be faintly seen.
At this moment, Zhao Lingxue suddenly looked pious, staring at the green lantern quietly, kneeling on her knees like a Buddha, clasping her hands together, and closing her eyes gently.
Tu Tielin suddenly cast a surprised glance.
Xiao Jiansheng glanced at Tu Tielin and asked, "What is the origin of this lamp, and what support does it rely on to burn?" ”
Tu Tielin came back to his senses and replied: "Naturally, it depends on absorbing the vitality of heaven and earth and the aura of the sun, and when I first came, I also made a wish. ”
Xiao Jiansheng asked with a smile: "What wish did the seniors make, can you allow the juniors to guess it." ”
Tu Tielin glared at Xiao Jiansheng.
Xiao Jiansheng smiled and said, "I guess I hope no one can meet Senior Su......"
Before Xiao Jiansheng finished speaking, Tu Tielin pretended to be displeased and said, "That's your mother, don't talk nonsense." ”
Xiao Jiansheng smiled embarrassedly, even he didn't know what he was embarrassed about, maybe the word mother appeared on him for the first time, a little surprised, a little uncomfortable.
Xiao Jiansheng smiled: "I guessed it, right?"
Tu Tielin sighed and said, "Do you want to have one too, sincerity is spiritual." ”
Xiao Jiansheng shook his head, pointed at Zhao Lingxue, who was very serious, and said, "She has already made a promise for me, and if there are more, it won't work." ”
Tu Tielin didn't pay attention to it, and began to pay attention to Zhao Lingxue very seriously, his eyes were full of joy, and unconsciously, his face was filled with indescribable pride, and he secretly praised himself a few words, really has his father and his son, and his father's majesty back then, while being chased and killed by Zhao Mingying, he also got someone's daughter back in his hands, how can he, a father, not be glorious?
Xiao Jiansheng only knew that Tu Tielin was secretly happy, naturally he didn't know what he was happy about, he looked at Zhao Lingxue quietly, and when Zhao Lingxue slowly opened his eyes, he quickly helped the person up, and asked the same question without paying attention.
Zhao Lingxue covered her mouth and chuckled lightly, and slowly shook her head.
The big porcelain bowl suddenly said in surprise: "I guess the princess must hope to have a ...... in the future."
Zhao Lingxue suddenly reprimanded: "Big porcelain bowl, if you talk nonsense again, you will return with Senior Tu in a while." ”
The big porcelain bowl said aggrievedly: "It's not okay to tell the truth." ”
At this moment, Xiao Jiansheng asked: "Do you know where this teleportation array can lead, when I was in Daliang Kingdom, an underground teleportation array was also built there, and it was destroyed. ”
Tu Tielin thought for a moment and said
"As far as we know, this teleportation array can safely lead to four places, one is the coastline of the southern country, one is the deep mountains of the Great Liang Kingdom, and one is close to the Donggao wharf, it is possible that the original purpose was to approach the Sage Domain, and the last place should be west of Guirou. ”
Xiao Jiansheng nodded with satisfaction.
Tu Tielin continued: "I tried the first three places, and they were absolutely safe, but I was interrupted when I tried the last place. ”
Xiao Jiansheng subconsciously asked who.
Tu Tielin said with a smile: "It's the old guy who sent you ten miles of spring breeze, he suddenly came again that day, he had to pester me to drink with him, and after drinking too much, he forgot about it, in fact, after he woke up, he thought about it, it was the drunkard who did it on purpose." ”
Xiao Jiansheng asked: "It seems that Senior Ning often comes over, and this time we are here, which is also what he meant, saying that he wants to burn the tail behind him." ”
Tu Tielin suddenly smiled heartily: "I came here, and it is also what the old guy meant, saying that he borrowed ten catties of grain from me at the beginning, and he will return me a mountain of rice when he comes today." ”
Zhao Lingxue suddenly had an epiphany and said with a smile: "It seems that all this is arranged by Senior Ning, and he intends to let the two of you get together here." ”
Xiao Jiansheng and Tu Tielin, father and son, looked at each other, both frowning.
Seeing this, Zhao Lingxue was extremely pleased.
This scene is a bit like looking in the mirror, how similar the two in the mirror are, especially the way the two laugh at the same time, almost the same, no wonder they are called father and son, but this mirror has a time difference of more than ten years.
Xiao Jiansheng sighed and said, "When did Senior Ning borrow grain from Senior Tu?"
Tu Tielin thought back for a while, and said: "I just sent you away that year, and on the way back, I wanted to find a few enemies to kill in the dark, but I met the old guy on the way, and I had to ask me to borrow ten catties of grain, saying that I would return a mountain of rice after seventeen years, so I lent him all the rations." ”
Zhao Lingxue looked at Xiao Jiansheng and said with a smile: "Aren't you just a rice mountain, they all say that raising children to prevent old age, gold and silver mountains are not as good as a rice mountain, in this way, Senior Ning should have known your life experience a long time ago, but it was only today that it was thoroughly understood." ”
Xiao Jiansheng and Tu Tielin nodded at the same time, especially Tu Tielin, his face looked strangely ruddy under the sun, at this moment he completely figured out many things, from seventeen years ago to today, the bits and pieces of the past ten years poured into his mind.
Before you know it, it's been three poles in the day.
Tu Tielin waved his hand and said, "Let's go, I should also go to the appointment in advance, and clean up the place in general, otherwise your mother may use something to get angry." ”
Xiao Jiansheng laughed in a low voice: "It's really a thing to drop a thing, brine to tofu." ”
Tu Tielin glanced at Zhao Lingxue and said with a playful smile: "No, you'll know when the time comes." ”
The three of them bid farewell to Tu Tielin and stepped onto the teleportation array.
......
At this time, a wharf thousands of miles away is in the cold season, few people go to sea, but there are a lot of pedestrians near the wharf, these people seem to be idle, swaying, in fact, they are always vigilant to look at the movements around them, in addition to the bright side, those idle ferries are also hiding a lot of people, at this moment, suddenly someone vigilantly looked at the distance, and whispered to the companions not far away: "They are coming, copy guys,"
