Chapter 10: The Patriarch
The sun is rising, the warm sun is shining on the earth, the night is receding, and everything is beginning to recover.
Among the 100,000 mountains, the environment is quiet and terrible, and it has not changed at all because of the sunshine, this is the forbidden land of the human race, and it is the highest and most dangerous place in the Northern Wilderness.
The mountains were not as calm as they seemed, and the hungry beasts had already begun to hunt for their food, but none of them dared to act arrogantly, and they were all vigilant.
In the midst of these 100,000 mountains, there are many dangers, and it is likely that you were a powerful predator one moment, and the next moment you will become a meal for other beasts.
But all the fierce beasts that survive in the 100,000 mountains are extremely careful, and it is very difficult to survive in this mountain.
In the mountains, looking from afar, there is a wisp of green smoke floating out, in this hundred thousand mountains.
This is an extremely strange phenomenon, after all, this is a forbidden place for the Terrans, although occasionally the Terran powers will come here to temporarily settle and seek a breakthrough, but normal people will never make a fire here.
Although the light of fire can drive away weak beasts, it can also easily attract more powerful beasts.
The source of the green smoke is a grass house, and the dead grass on the grass house has been completely evaporated by the sun, and it has dried up to the extreme.
What's even more strange is that there is smoke curling on the grass house, but there are only some bees and butterflies pollinating and collecting nectar among the flowers, not to mention those ferocious beasts, they are some ordinary mice, and the green snake has not been recruited.
The willow tree outside the grass house was drooping, and an old man was sitting on the bluestone under the weeping willow, with white hair and eyebrows, and his hands were behind his back, looking at the mountains in the distance, as if he was thinking about something, it was Qi Xiuyuan.
"Amount"
With a soft snort, Ye Qing's eyes opened, he felt that his body was very painful and tired, but he didn't want to fall asleep.
Ye Qing slowly sat up and looked around, this was a grass house, and some simple tea sets were placed on the chair beside him.
The grass house is not well repaired, it can only barely block the wind and rain after a long time, but it can't block the sun, the sun is dazzling, Ye Qing just looked around roughly, then stood up and walked to the dilapidated gate of the grass house.
Outside the door, catkins fluttered in the wind, and an old man in white sat under the tree.
"Master. Ye Qing snorted lightly, and Qi Xiuyuan looked back.
At this time, Ye Qing was not wearing the clothes made of green silk and satin when he came out of the General's Mansion, Qi Xiuyuan had already changed into a simple cloth dress for him, which was very rough and far less comfortable than the silk satin.
But Ye Qing liked it very much, he had worn such a cloth before, and he was still more accustomed to the feeling of coarse cloth and sturdy cloth than the silkiness of the satin.
"Ye Qing, wake up. ”
"Well, master, where are we now?"
"This is the Immortal Mansion, in the midst of the 100,000 mountains, if it is a sect, it can be regarded as the place of our master. ”
"Changshenglu?" Ye Qing looked around, the grass house was very ordinary, no different from the grass house where ordinary people lived.
But there is a kind of artistic conception here, this artistic conception is very ethereal, Ye Qing can barely perceive a trace after experiencing the danger of near-death and survival several times, and in the grass, he can feel a kind of dusty charm, a feeling of being far away from the world.
"How is it, Ye Qing, are you feeling better?" Qi Xiuyuan left the willow tree and walked to Ye Qing's side.
It has been three days since Ye Qing slept this time, and after Ye Qing fell asleep that day, Qi Xiuyuan took Ye Qing back here, since Ye Qing had already worshiped him as a teacher, he naturally wanted to return to the Immortal Mansion, which could be regarded as a visit to the teacher.
"Master, I'm much better, it's just... Ye Qing was also puzzled, after all, this place was still very strange to Ye Qing.
"Ye Qing, you have now worshipped me as a teacher, although you have not practiced any method, you can be regarded as my immortal sect person, you already know that the inheritance of our immortal lineage is very difficult, we are almost all a single lineage, good luck for the teacher, you can find such a successor as you at the age of a thousand years, you know, your ancestor found me at the age of nearly five thousand, and almost broke the inheritance, so we attach great importance to the inheritance of this lineage, before you officially embark on the path of cultivation, you still need to meet the ancestor. ”
"Meet the Patriarch?"
"Yes, meet the Patriarch, this is also very important to you, come with me. After speaking, Qi Xiuyuan led Ye Qing towards the grass house.
As before, the grass house is very dilapidated, but there is an extremely deep road inside the grass house, the road is very long, you can't see the end at a glance, the more you go inside, the more the aura in the grass house will be full, time passes slowly, the grass house is not big, but Ye Qing feels that they have been walking for a long time.
Finally, about half a stick of incense had passed, Qi Xiuyuan was still leading Ye Qing in front, but his expression had changed, and he seemed to be very surprised.
After another half of the incense burn, Ye Qing finally saw a tomb, a lonely grave, there was a burning candle in front of the lonely grave, the candle was only half burned, and a faint green smoke floated out of the candle.
Ye Qing pulled Qi Xiuyuan, who was still leading him in front.
"Master. ”
Qi Xiuyuan turned around and looked at Ye Qing in surprise,
"Did you see that?"
"Well, a tomb, is it the patriarch's tomb?" Ye Qing wondered, but Qi Xiuyuan smiled with relief at this time.
"Now that you've seen it, let's bow down. ”
"Good. Ye Qing agreed, without hesitation, knelt down directly, and bowed to the lonely grave.
As Ye Qing's head got closer and closer to the ground, Ye Qing's head became heavier and heavier, and his eyes became more and more unclear, and gradually, the figure of Qi Xiuyuan in front of Ye Qing's eyes became blurred.
When Ye Qing saw it clearly, he had returned to the grass house for some reason, but Qi Xiuyuan had disappeared, and in front of him was a strange woman.
This is a very beautiful woman, saying that she is beautiful is not only how beautiful her appearance is, but that she has a temperament on her body, a feeling of being close to heaven and earth, and being one with heaven and earth, it is easy for people to have a good impression, she is in her twenties, and she is the most beautiful age for a woman.
The woman walked slowly towards Ye Qing, she was really beautiful, wearing red clothes, and she was even more charming, Rao is Ye Qing was still young, and she was still fascinated by her.
She walked towards Ye Qing, every step of her was as if the earth was playing the piano and drums for her, with rhythm, everything about her was so harmonious, every move was like this, Ye Qing was also fascinated for a while.
"Am I beautiful?" I don't know when, the woman had already walked to Ye Qing's side, and her white index finger like a green onion gently touched Ye Qing's eyebrows, and she seemed to be very satisfied with Ye Qing's performance.
"Beautiful. Ye Qing replied in a daze, she was completely fascinated by the woman, and replied subconsciously.
"Hehe, I didn't learn well at a young age, but I learned to make girls happy first. I don't know how much harm will be caused when I grow up; ”
The woman's silver bell-like laughter sounded in Ye Qing's ears, and Ye Qing realized that the fairy-like woman had arrived by his side at some point, and even leaned her mouth against his ear, her eyes full of teasing.
Ye Qing blushed and heartbeat for a moment, and left the woman's side in a panic, looking at the woman vigilantly.
"Little one, how did you get here?" The woman's seductive voice reached Ye Qing's ears, although it was far away, it could still make Ye Qing's face red.
"I... It was the master who brought me to meet the patriarch, and somehow I ended up with you. I hope that the fairy will be strange and send me back. ”
Ye Qing blushed, he was seven or eight years old, and his delicate face was already red at this time, and he was very shy.
"Huh. Where do you want to go back?" the woman teased.
"Back to the grass... Go back to the Immortal Mansion and ask the fairy to send me back. Ye Qing said solemnly, but unfortunately he didn't know that his crimson face at this time and that serious tone could only make others laugh.
"Isn't this the Eternal Mansion? Are you still going to enter my boudoir?"
The woman said with a smile, Ye Qing only remembered at this time that this was indeed the Immortal Mansion, although Qi Xiu was far from here, but the surrounding furnishings and even the aura had not changed. For a while, he blushed and had nothing to say.
"Little one, didn't your master ask you to meet the ancestor?"
"Hmm. Ye Qing nodded and replied subconsciously.
"Then you saw the ancestor, why didn't you come over to say hello?" The woman's tone suddenly became serious, and the red clothes on her body fluttered in the wind, as if she had suddenly changed into a person.
"Ancestor?" Ye Qing raised his head in surprise, to be honest, he really couldn't connect the woman in front of him with the ancestor.
The ancestor in his imagination should be a great and unparalleled emperor, who is invincible when he stands on the ground.
Although the woman in front of him had become serious at this time, his flirtatious appearance before made him really unable to accept that this was his ancestor, Ye Qing stayed in place and didn't speak, just looked at the woman like that, even with a scrutinizing gaze.
"Wow, little one, you can't believe it, right. The woman returned to her previous frivolous appearance, and her red clothes were against the background, looking extremely charming.
She ran to Ye Qing's side and pinched Ye Qing's little face with both hands, but Ye Qing still didn't speak, but her eyes were full of affirmation.
The woman was also dumbfounded, helplessly supporting her forehead, and a peculiar breath slowly flowed from her white fingertips.
This aura Ye Qing is very familiar with, it is the kind of aura on Qi Xiuyuan's body, but the one in the woman's hand is even stronger.
Ye Qing felt this breath, and suddenly he was confused, and he carefully identified it, Qi Xiuyuan and the woman's aura were really similar, almost identical.
After Ye Qing was resurrected, he felt very keenly about this aura.
Moreover, the breath in Qi Xiuyuan's hands with this woman was not ordinary, it was extremely close to the breath in the deep pit when he was resurrected.
At the beginning, he easily believed Qi Xiuyuan, in addition to feeling that Qi Xiuyuan had no ill will towards him, the most important thing was this aura of the same root and origin as him.
Thinking of this, Ye Qing also understood that even if the woman in front of him was not his ancestor, she should have a great relationship with Changsheng, but thinking about the frivolous appearance of the woman before, he still couldn't believe it.
"What's the matter, you still don't believe it. The woman laughed. Ye Qing didn't respond, but subconsciously he really didn't believe it.
"Okay, let's take a look. ”
