3 The legend of the relics
We're even more confused.
More than a thousand years ago, the saintess of the Tang Dynasty told us this secret to the current head of the altar, how did she tell it? Do you want to dream?
Shu Lan saw our question, "It's not a dream, it's a face-to-face statement." That saint's soul is immortal, and she has sealed herself in the world for a thousand years, for this mission......"
Miao Yi and I shook our heads in unison, we didn't believe it, we couldn't figure it out, or we couldn't explain it. A person seals himself for a thousand years, in order to tell future generations that there is a big secret? Does it need to be so troublesome? There are many ways to pass on secrets, but as for sealing yourself?
"Okay", Shu Lan was speechless, "That's what Master said, our current head altar sect leader is the daughter of the Dharma Protector of the Northern Sect and the Holy Maiden of the Southern Sect. They gave birth to twins and two girls, so this generation was originally two holy daughters, the eldest lady and the second lady in the mouths of the elders. The eldest lady is the saintess of the Northern Sect, and the second miss is the saintess of the Southern Sect, and these two girls are also in love with the same man. Later, when they went on a secret mission together, the eldest lady died and the second lady returned safely, and she obeyed the order of the eldest lady to reunite the two sects in the north and south. The master said that the second lady could not have left that place, but she saw the saint of the Tang Dynasty, and it was the saint who took her out of that nightmarish place and told her the secret......"
There was silence in the living room.
She looked at the two of us, "Do you understand?" ”
Miao Yi sighed, "The more I listen, the more confused I become, forget the captain, I won't ask more, and if I ask again, I will force you to say what you shouldn't say." ”
Shu Lan breathed a sigh of relief and looked at me, "What about you?" ”
I pondered for a moment, "That eldest lady, who lived here, gave my aunt an order before she set out on that mission, saying that she should be loyal to the second lady in the future and unify the tritheistic religion. ”
"How do you know?" The two girls asked in unison.
I looked at the two of them, "On the first night of our visit to the Eagle's Nest, we accidentally saw it when we broke the barrier. Captain, I don't think you can hear the truth at the beginning, and those of us who are disciples can only hear legends. But that's enough, I believe there is a factual basis behind this legend, so I won't ask, you just say what to do next! ”
"Hmm", Miao Yi also nodded and looked at Shu Lan, "What should I do next?" ”
Shu Lan smiled with relief and looked at the two of us, "Do you know why I didn't wait for Zhao Sichen to come back and tell you this?" Because he can't listen to this, and he doesn't have to listen to this. Master said that our Trigod Sect has a total of four holy relics, namely the Moon God Crown, the Dragon Soul Secret Talisman, the Yin and Yang Bracelet, and the Ling Tian Sword. They don't leave the Tritheistic Cult at the same time, but they will definitely return to the Tritheistic Cult together. In other words, the Moon God Crown has been found, and the others will appear soon, and the next one is the Dragon Soul Secret Talisman! ”
My heart moved, and I subconsciously bit my lip.
"This is our new mission?" Miao Yi's eyes lit up.
Shu Lan nodded, "There are a total of three pieces of this Dragon Gate Order, except for this one, which is kept in the Water Ghost Gate, the other two pieces are in Beijing." As I said, this object is not worth much in the market, but the real connoisseur will find it valuable. We have two days to find out the other two pieces before Zhao Sichen comes back. No matter who they are in their hands or what the cost is, the Tritheistic Cult is determined to win. ”
"Understood", Miao Yi looked at me, "I cooperate with the pony, and it shouldn't be difficult to find the other two." Just know where they are, and the rest will be easy. ”
Shuran looked at me, "Pony, what's the problem?" ”
"Huh?" I came back to my senses, "Uh...... No, no problem! ”
Shu Lan obviously didn't believe it, "If you have something on your mind, don't keep it in your heart." ”
I hesitated for a moment, looked at Miao Yi, and breathed a sigh of relief, "Captain, if these four holy relics return to the Tritheistic Sect, what will happen after that?" ”
"After that?" Shu Lan didn't understand, "What do you mean?" ”
"I know that these four sacred relics contain the tremendous power left by the Trigod Niangniang," I paused, "If we find them, it will definitely be of great help in improving the strength of our Trigod Sect." I just don't know, what will the general altar do when it gets this power? ”
Shu Lan nodded, "Pony, this matter is not something we should worry about as disciples, don't think about it so much, okay?" ”
I smiled lightly, "Okay, I'm thinking too much." Let's prepare, and start locating after dark, and strive to find the whereabouts of the other two Dragon Gate Orders as soon as possible. ”
Shu Lan smiled slightly, "Okay! Miao Yi was also tired along the way, so he took a break, and we started in the evening! ”
Miao Yi glanced at me, didn't say anything, and nodded slightly.
She knew what I was thinking, she just couldn't ask me.
Shu Lan confessed a few more words, got up and went to my aunt's, saying that she would come back before eight o'clock in the evening. After sending her away, Miao Yi returned to me and sat down, and said what was in her heart, "Xiaoma, are you worried that we and Ninth Sister Zhu will have conflicts in the future, right?" ”
I glanced at her and smiled.
She looked at me for a moment and sighed softly, "Don't be bored, let's talk, it's just the two of us now." ”
"I'm just a little worried", I looked at the copper plate on the table, "Xiao Yi, it is said that the appearance of the holy relic is a major event of our tritheistic religion, I should be happy, but I don't know why...... I'm particularly worried. ”
"Are you worried about Bai Yiyi?" She looked at me.
"No", I shook my head, "I'm worried that the balance of power between the Three Gods Sect and the Ninth Sister Zhu will be broken, the strength of the two families is not weak, once something really goes wrong, it won't be a small move." ”
"That...... You shouldn't have said it", she paused, "I'll be done when I'm done, don't think about it anymore, it's taboo to think about it again." ”
I understood what she meant, and smiled slightly, "Okay, thank you Xiaoyi." ”
She stood up, "Come up with me and show you something." ”
I was stunned for a moment, then got up, followed her, and walked into her bedroom.
She took out a long wooden box from the box, and when she opened it, there was a painting inside. She handed me the painting and gently unfolded it, revealing a graceful ancient woman.
"Remember the holy woman I told you about?" She said, "This painting is that the legendary holy objects are all on her body." ”
I nodded, and looked closely at the painting, which showed her wearing a crown of the moon god on her head, an irregular rectangular ruby the size of a palm, a bracelet on each wrist, white on the left and black on the right, a shield in her left hand, a sharp dagger in her right hand, a red cloak on her shoulder, and a bronze drum pinned to her waist......
My eyes lit up, "Zheng Tiangu!" ”
Miao Yi nodded silently, "It's the copper drum you used in Xinjiang." ”
"What do you mean by showing me this picture?" I asked.
She didn't look at me, "You take a closer look at this painting and see what you can find?" ”
I looked carefully for a long time, and the saint on this painting not only has a beautiful appearance, but also has a noble air between her eyebrows and eyes, as for the rest, I really can't see anything.
"The saint is very beautiful and has a good temperament", I said, "what else?" ”
The girl was speechless and sighed, "How many treasures do you have on the holy woman?" ”
I counted, "The Moon God Crown, the Dragon Soul Secret Talisman, the Ling Tian Sword, the Yin and Yang Bracelet, the Zheng Tian Drum, and ...... And this shield? That's a total of six treasures? ”
She nodded, "No, there are seven holy relics in total, but when the Tritheistic Sect split, the Southern Tritheistic Sect only got one of them, which was the Moon God Crown; The Northern Tritheistic Sect is divided into three pieces, namely the Fire Emblem Shield, the Zhurong Cloak and the Zhengtian Drum; The whereabouts of the Dragon Soul Secret Talisman, Ling Tian Sword and Yin Yang Bracelet are unknown. During the Ming Dynasty, the Nine Sisters Zhu Nine Girl Axia became a witch spirit, and one of the protectors of the Northern Sect was serving in the shogunate of a general at that time. The imperial court sent the general to lead the troops to exterminate the Nine Girls' troops, but the soldiers were defeated. The Nine Girls vowed to take the general's life, and the head of the Northern Sect had no choice but to use the Fire Emblem Shield against her. ”
"And then?" I asked.
"The Nine Girls have strong mana, and the protector of the Northern Sect is not her opponent, and she barely saved her life, but the Fire Emblem Shield was taken away by the disciples of the Ninth Sister Zhu and used as a trophy", she paused, "Now the token Fire Emblem Shield that the Nine Sisters Zhu Qingwu hangs is based on our Fire Emblem Shield, and the master said that this is the common shame of the two sects in the north and the south." ”
I swallowed, "No one has told me this. ”
She looked at me, "Pony, the Zhengtian Drum is a sacred relic of the Tritheistic Sect, but it has always been used by you, and no one has ever asked about it, don't you understand the purpose of this?" ”
"What's the point?" I'm a little confused.
"You, the one chosen by the head of the altar sect", she stared at me and said lightly, "Or rather, you have the hope of the Tritheistic Sect condensed in you, although ...... Although you are now in love with the disciple of Jiumei Zhu, you must not forget your duty, we are disciples of the Three Gods Sect, and we have vowed to maintain the legal system of the Three Gods Sect. ”
I understood, "Are you worried that I have two hearts for the Tritheistic Religion?" ”
She shook her head, "You're not that kind of person, I just hope you don't say those sensitive things in the future." Although the current Tritheistic Sect is unified, there are many things ......" she sighed and shook her head, "You also know that Elder Lu is under a lot of pressure, and not all the elders in the sect are sensible, so let's not think about what we shouldn't think, in that way, it is easy to leave a handle for people with ulterior motives." ”
I nodded, "Understood, don't worry, I don't think much about it." ”
Miao Yi smiled slightly, "That's good." ”
I subconsciously took her hand, "Seeing this painting, I began to understand why you were so excited just now." ”
She was stunned, "What? ”
I smiled, "You Southern Sect disciples are very religious, and your beliefs are established on the legends and miracles of the Tritheistic Sect. What Master said will not deviate in your hearts, so when you hear different legends, you will touch the sensitivity of your heart...... Xiao Yi, you are really simple, it is precisely because you are simple that your faith is indestructible, so you can cultivate Qi Spiritual Technique at such a young age, I compare with you, there are too many shortcomings......"
Miao Yi looked at me calmly for a while, gently pulled out his hand, and put away the scroll, "It's not early, you're hungry too, let's go eat something......"
