Chapter 45: Figured it out
This place is classified as a forbidden land, of course, this "forbidden land" is not demarcated by the government, but by the mouth of countless practitioners, the legend is that it is forbidden to fly here, but anyone who walks in the sky from above is either dead or injured, as for whether it is true, the fish peep river can only be said to be suspicious, so she wants to come and see.
Once this place belonged to the fertile land, the grass grew and the warbler flew, there was a river to pass through, there were several quiet small villages distributed on the riverside, to the catastrophe of heaven and earth more than ten years ago, it became a no-man's land completely, there were countless deaths and injuries, there was no grass within a radius of 100 miles, if you stand on a high place and look down, it is like a huge eyeball, the middle is pitch black, not even a trace of light enters, the color is slightly lighter around, it is narrow and long.
To this day, remembering the incident more than ten years ago, the fish still has palpitations in his heart.
More than ten years have passed, and the original scene is still vivid.
It was the beginning of spring, and it was supposed to be the season of revival of all things, when there was a sudden loud noise in the northern land, and then, the sky cracked, and a pillar of purple light penetrated through the crack, and fell on the land.
Afterwards, the government of the Fengtian Dynasty gave a rough figure, destroying countless fertile fields, the number of deaths could not be counted, and the livestock were even more numerous, characterizing this catastrophe as a natural disaster.
But Yupee River does not think that it is a natural disaster, in her opinion, it is likely to be a man-made disaster, someone deliberately did it, or someone was involved.
Yu Peep River didn't think deeply, she looked at the woman in her arms, and her mood was a little complicated.
She is familiar with this woman, she has always been with Xue'er, she is a maid, but in fact she is like a sister, Xue'er likes to call her a big porcelain bowl, in fact, her real name is Hu Wan'er.
Yu Peehe had a bloody fight with the ancestor of the Yan family, although his strength was inferior, but with his own serious injury, he also made the other party's blood stain his clothes, which was worth it, otherwise the old ghost would be a hindrance from it, and Xue'er's life would naturally be difficult to protect.
After she got rid of the ancestor of the Yan family, she searched for the clues left by Xue'er, but no one found it, but she found the big porcelain bowl, when she found the big porcelain bowl, the big porcelain bowl had only one breath left, and it seemed to hold back a sentence.
When the large porcelain bowl whose breath was about to dissipate was picked up by Yupehe, she saw the old man's face clearly, and only said one word, Her Royal Highness the princess had fled, and then died.
The reason why Yu Peehe wanted to come to this no man's land was just a reason to convince herself, her real idea was to come to find Zhao Lingxue, she felt that Zhao Lingxue did not escape too far, and it was very likely that she had also entered here, otherwise it would be difficult for her to escape from the sight of Yan Huichun and those two.
Gradually, the physical strength of the fish peeping river became more and more exhausted, and it was getting closer and closer to the barren place, and the road ahead may be dangerous, she did not take this hard-working child again, and hastily buried her in the vast night, and then sped up without hesitation.
......
On a certain road leading to Tianfu City, the ox cart made a melodious sound, and in the carriage, Meng Lingxiao closed his eyes leisurely, playing with two stones picked up from nowhere, and occasionally lifted the curtain to look out.
Xiao Jiansheng sat outside the carriage with a straw hat, holding a book in his hand, but his eyes were not on the words, he didn't know where to look, he felt very bored, so he looked up at the blue sky, there were clouds in the sky, white like cotton, and occasionally chirping birds flew by, but the idleness and poetic scenery still could not eliminate the restlessness in his heart.
At this moment, Xiao Jian
Sheng raised his body and said to the carriage: "Master, how many people can open the sky today?"
After a long time, Meng Lingxiao reluctantly said, "Why do you want to learn the art of opening the heavens?"
Xiao Jiansheng said seriously: "I just feel that the sky is a little strange that day, and it feels like artificial." ”
Meng Lingxiao said lightly: "How can you see it?"
Xiao Jiansheng said: "The last time the sky was opened, the crack lasted for a long time that day, but this time it was less than half a pillar of incense. ”
Meng Lingxiao nodded, as if he felt reasonable, and said: "You can count it with one pair of hands, such as who and who, and then so-and-so, and that old guy, it should be that old immortal can also do it." ”
Xiao Jiansheng frowned, extremely dissatisfied with the answer given by Meng Lingxiao, so he said a little angrily: "Speaking of which, there is no old man with you, in fact, before I met my master, I thought that your old man could do everything from heaven to earth." ”
Suddenly, the ox cart came to an abrupt halt, and no matter how hard the big black bull tried, he couldn't move forward.
Xiao Jiansheng secretly laughed, and heard Meng Lingxiao say angrily: "Who said that I, Meng Lingxiao, can't open the sky?"
Xiao Jiansheng smiled: "Then you should open my eyes, anyone can say big things, and I can still split the ground with your disciples." ”
Soon, Meng Lingxiao in the carriage felt deceived, so he said with a smile: "Actually, there are really not many people who can open the sky, first, cultivators have a sense of awe for the sky, and second, even if the strength is reached, the opportunity is also the same thing, but it is not just a casual handshake." ”
Xiao Jiansheng said: "For example, the drunkard Ning Ties?"
Meng Lingxiao said: "The old man Ning Tieshoe doesn't know much about this person, after all, he belongs to people who wander outside the world, but the old man knows that there is one person who can easily do it." ”
Xiao Jiansheng hurriedly asked, "What is a person who wanders outside the world?"
Meng Lingxiao shook his head and said, "It's hard to say, I feel that he is a very strange person, and he often does things that are difficult for others to understand." ”
Xiao Jiansheng said: "Isn't it weirder than Shigong?"
Meng Lingxiao glared at Xiao Jiansheng, thought for a moment and said: "Tong Lao Wei, that old immortal should be able to do it, when the old man encountered a fight, he definitely has this strength." ”
The ox cart finally moved, and as he continued along the road, he could already see the general outline of Tianfu City in the distance.
Xiao Jiansheng smiled: "It must be Shigong who lost." ”
Meng Lingxiao was not angry, and asked with a smile: "How do you know, don't say it's a guess." ”
Xiao Jiansheng said: "I was injured when I was in Chaotian Mountain, and I was fortunate to be rescued by Tong Xinmi's predecessors once, and I stayed there for a few days, and he said that there are five or six people in this world that he can't beat, and it shouldn't include Shigong." ”
There was a long sigh from inside the carriage, and Meng Lingxiao said with slight displeasure: "It's indeed a fact, but when your master goes back this time, it should be about the same, even if you can't beat that old monster, you won't lose too badly." ”
It was noon, the temperature was extremely hot, and the carriage was steaming, Meng Lingxiao had no choice but to get out of the carriage, and then looked forward, and found that there was a small river a few miles away, so he ordered Xiao Jiansheng to hurry up and drive the ox cart over.
After about a stick of incense, the big black bull struggled to pull the car down to the river, and then completely struck.
The creek is not wide, and it leads to the distance in a twist and turn, Meng Ling
Xiao jumped off the ox cart, rushed to the river, took off his shoes and put his steaming feet into the river, and let out a comfortable sigh from his mouth, and soon, Xiao Jiansheng also came to the river, and quickly threw off his shoes and ran to the upstream of Meng Lingxiao and sat down.
Soon, Meng Lingxiao quickly got up and sat down again in the upper reaches of Xiao Jiansheng.
Xiao Jiansheng didn't fight anymore, he was worried that his master would turn his face, after a period of getting along, he slowly found that his master's personality was a little weird, but it was actually very easy to get along with, but it was a bit similar to the big black bull, easy to play temper, and love a sour face.
Meng Lingxiao casually dragged a handful of grass over his face, and soon let out a low sound.
But Xiao Jiansheng couldn't do this good mood, staring at the sky with his eyes, his feet splashing, his mind fluctuated, and he was still thinking about that incident, who opened the sky and what happened.
I don't know how long it took, Meng Lingxiao woke up, glanced at Xiao Jiansheng who was in a hurry, and said, "Boy, just now the old man wandered once and found two things related to you, do you want to hear about it?"
Xiao Jiansheng hurriedly said: "Naturally, Shigong, please say." ”
Meng Lingxiao rubbed his stomach and said with a smile: "Fill your stomach first, anyway, whether things are good or bad has already happened, don't rush for a while." ”
Xiao Jiansheng had no choice but to absent-mindedly start to play wild game.
About half an hour later, the sky gradually darkened, an old man and a young man sat on a piece of sand by the river, Meng Lingxiao said while eating golden grilled fish: "The old man went to Chaotian Mountain and chatted with Tong Xinyu for a while, and he really did what opened the sky?"
Xiao Jiansheng slowly put down the fish in his hand, poured a sip of wine, and asked, "Why does Tong Xinyu want to open the sky?"
Meng Lingxiao said in a low voice: "For your uncompetitive woman." ”
Xiao Jiansheng was surprised: "Zhao Lingxue?"
Meng Lingxiao rolled his eyes and said, "How many women do you have?"
Xiao Jiansheng's face suddenly changed drastically, and he began to become restless.
Meng Lingxiao said lightly: "There is another thing that the Yan family has issued a letter of resignation in front of Zhao Lingxue, so that you will be justified, and you will no longer have to fall into the notorious thing of robbing other people's women, the fly in the ointment, Zhao Lingxue was seriously injured, and I don't know if she is dead or alive." ”
Xiao Jiansheng got up suddenly, and said angrily: "Master, I'm going to go back to find her......"
Meng Lingxiao blew his beard and glared: "It's up to you, it's still too tender now, the ancestors of the Yan family have come forward, you go back and send it to death, not to mention what if you find it, she is no longer that Zhao Lingxue, she has become a spirit master, will she still throw herself into her arms?"
Xiao Jiansheng hurriedly said: "In the opinion of the master, what should I do?"
Meng Lingxiao shook his head and didn't say anything.
Xiao Jiansheng walked towards the big black bull with a solemn expression.
Meng Lingxiao looked at Xiao Jiansheng who was walking away, and then said with a smile: "It is said that dogs will jump off the wall when they are in a hurry, and rabbits will bite people when they are in a hurry, I wonder if this kid will be like this." ”
......
In Tianfu City, in an inn with wine in the famous Xu family, Xiao Jiansheng continued to read to a lamp until the oil lamp ran out of fuel and went out by itself, but he still held the book in his hand and kept one action unchanged.
Early in the morning, Meng Lingxiao got up early, patted Xiao Jiansheng on the shoulder, and said, "Have you figured it out?"
Xiao Jiansheng closed the book and said with a smile: "I figured it out." ”
