130. Three villages
It feels good to be put in the same place with the elder brother open and closed.
Xuan Yu shook his head, closed the wooden door, and walked into the small courtyard, the courtyard was cleaned in advance, the overall layout was unexpectedly simple, but the workmanship of the tables and chairs was very exquisite, and there was some connotation in the simplicity, and it was a very exquisite small courtyard in general.
On the third day, Xuan Yu was taken by Li Yangyang to participate in the procession to the altar.
In the past few days, Xuan Yu has a general understanding of the current world through Li Yangyang. The three villages are made up of three surnames, but it does not mean that the people in one village are related by blood, but they are all given the same surname.
Each of the three villages has a series of altars, and it is rumored that the main reason why the village can survive among the demons is to rely on its own village's altar. At this time, the largest altar except for the altars in the three villages, the Sun and Moon Altar, will be headed.
On weekdays, the altar of the sun and moon is generally shrouded in morning mist, and if you walk in, you will get lost, and you will come out of another place in a daze, and if you use your divine sense to explore the way, you will even have a hallucination, lose your mind, and it is even more dangerous.
Sun Moon Lake is not far away, after walking for a day and a night, Xuan Yu and everyone saw the huge altar, the high platform is more than ten meters, the center of the altar is very wide, and it has been blocked at present, except for specific people, do not step on it in order. Below the altar were mostly monks walking around, and compared to the magnificent altar, these monks seemed much smaller.
"The Chu family has already arrived."
Xuan Yu listened to Li Yangyang's sigh, and his understanding of the Chu family in the past few days appeared in his mind. The village chief of the Chu family is the person who was envied by the village chief Li during this time, according to the words of the village chief Li, it is the daughter of the family who got married early, not to mention the first child, that is, the second child has landed, Li Sui is still an old bachelor, they all grew up with the same bare buttocks, why is the gap so big?
Li Sui was annoyed when he heard it, but now when he saw the Chu family, he subconsciously looked at him with a blank eye, and he didn't want to see it.
The three villages survive among the demon clans, and the biggest threat and enemy is always the alien demon clan, and because of some inexplicable checks and balances, the three villages have constant small frictions, but they have never really fallen out.
Now in the Chu family, it is Guan Mulei and some disciples of other sects. After the Chu family and the village chief of the Li family met, they went to greet each other, and Xuan Yu also saw Guan Mulei behind the village chief of Chu, pondered for a moment, and walked over with his feet raised, "Second senior brother!" ”
Guan Mulei looked at Xuan Yu, who was bending down to salute him, and didn't let him get up or say anything else.
Seeing that the atmosphere of the two of them was a little wrong, the disciple of the Heavenly Furnace Sect next to him hurriedly spoke: "Xuanyu Daoist is amazing, he actually came here!" There was no disdain in this person's eyes, but full of amazement and admiration.
Xuan Yu also naturally got up and smiled: "Otherwise, in fact, there is no danger in following the senior brother before, and the tests encountered after separating from the senior brother are relatively simple, so I got here."
"Haha, Xuanyu Daoyou is modest, speaking of which, a few of us are full, Guan Mulei Daoyou opened our eyes this time, I only knew about puppet masters in the past, but I have never seen such a strong puppet master, I want to come out this time, the name of the second senior brother of Qihua Sect will also be famous."
Because of this person's speech, Xuan Yu glanced at Guan Mulei, who was silent. Guan Mulei's strength was expected to be strong, it stands to reason that there is a strong man in his sect, and he should be very proud as a disciple of the sect, Xuan Yu felt a deep sense of crisis at this time. It's as if you were born to touch each other, and you can't get together.
Xuan Yu saw that there were few familiar with these people, and Chen Fatzi Yu'er and they were even more silent.
In any case, he is also a disciple of the Qihua Sect, and now that he has seen the brothers and sisters of the sect, he has to thank the right guard, Li Yangyang and the others to thank him and leave.
"Xuanyu Daoyou can go with confidence, I don't think it will be long before Peng Yansheng Daoyou arrives."
Xuan Yu sometimes thinks that in fact, the senior brother doesn't show anything in front of everyone, most of the time he doesn't do as much as Right Wei Yi or Sun Hao, but in the eyes of people who know him and have heard of him, he should be the best kind of person, others may be trapped in the test, but Peng Yansheng will not.
The third village is belated, surnamed Ji, Xuan Yu was still a little puzzled when he first knew, the Li family and the Chu family represented Li Bai Sage and the royal family of Chu State, what does this Ji represent? When I was free, I kept thinking about it in my head, and in a trance, I suddenly found out that the queen, the queen mother, the queen mother who was named by the Chu Emperor, isn't her real name the surname Ji.
The village chief of the Ji family village is also a woman, about in her early forties, the green silk behind her head is fixed with a wooden hairpin, wearing an ink-colored robe, although there are no extra ornaments on her body, she looks up and raises her hand to reveal full of luxury.
In the crowd of the Ji family, Xuan Yu saw Yu'er and Chen Fatzi at a glance, as well as some monks he didn't know, who looked more mixed.
"Xuan Yu!!" Yu'er's eyes lit up, and he also saw Xuan Yu, who was already standing in the crowd of the Chu family, and pulled Chen Fatzi, who still didn't know the situation, to say hello to Village Chief Ji and ran over.
Xuan Yu watched the fish holding Chen Fatzi's hand, a little blank, Chen Fatzi looked at the honest man, and actually took the fish silently? You must know that Yu'er is not only outstanding in appearance, but also has to be sought after by a lot of excellent disciples because of its name as a know-it-all.
Seeing the banter in Xuan Yu's eyes, Yu'er's face turned slightly red, and he pulled Chen Fatzi and hurriedly greeted the second senior brother and others, and then walked over with some twists.
Fat Chen's guy was a little nervous, and he didn't notice the small movements of the two, looked at Xuan Yu's side, and asked suspiciously: "Senior sister Xuan Yu, where is the senior brother?" Not with you? ”
"Yes, the three villages have arrived, and all of us who can enter the immortal tomb have come, right?"
Yu'er said with some regret: "I heard that Li Gui and they folded together in the previous level, but fortunately, they were only injured and did not worry about their lives."
Xuan Yu and the two of them understood the situation, and Yu'er obviously knew a lot, and it was mostly unclear to Xuan Yu.
The altar has been transformed by the arrangement of the three villages, and the various offerings are placed in a certain order.
The altar is scheduled to be held at midnight, and many tables and chairs are placed around the altar, and the food such as flowers and fruits is prepared very exquisitely, and the lanterns are lit one by one when night falls, and everyone talks and laughs under the red lanterns, which is as lively as the Spring Festival in the mortal world.
"I heard that someone has seen Senior Brother?"
Xuan Yu listened to it, and his eyes motioned for the fish to go over and inquire.
Without saying a few words, Yu'er hurriedly looked around to ask someone, and when he came back, he looked at Xuan Yu and opened his mouth and hesitated.
Xuan Yu opened his mouth and asked, "What's wrong?"
"It's said that someone saw the senior brother in the last level... The elder brother had a fight with a powerful demon cultivator and was injured... ”
"How can there be a demon cultivator?!" Fat Chen was shocked.
Almost everyone present already knew that this was the immortal tomb of Li Bai Sheng, Li Bai Sheng had a great achievement in his life, but he participated in the immortal and demon war at that time and killed a lot of demon cultivators, how could there be a demon cultivator in his immortal tomb who could hurt Peng Yansheng?!
Too much time has passed, and there is no way to know at this time, maybe it is because of what has happened in the long river of time, or maybe it is the test left by Li Shengren, Xuan Yu now just wants to know how the senior brother is now?
Yu'er obviously thought the same way, and hurriedly said: "Actually, a few of them don't know where they heard the gossip, I asked several people in a row, but I couldn't tell where it came from."
"According to what they said, the world in Senior Brother's level is extremely dilapidated because of the existence of demon cultivators, there are no monks there, they are all mortals, and even the monks who have been teleported there can't use a trace of aura. The world is full of disasters, plagues, and droughts brought about by demon cultivators, and their mission is to kill demon cultivators and restore order in that world. ”
"Isn't that the messianic mission?" Fat Chen said in surprise.
Xuan Yu glanced at the fish and motioned to continue.
Yu'er nodded, "According to their information, I can't be sure how many foreign monks were teleported to that world at that time, but the rumors say that the process of the senior brother fighting that demon cultivator is very vivid. ”
"Has the demon cultivator also been suppressed into a mortal?"
Hearing Xuan Yu's inquiry, Yu'er said angrily: "If the demon cultivator is a mortal, where can he be the opponent of the senior brother?!"
Fat Chen slapped his thigh violently, "I'll go!" It's too bad! Seal the aura of the senior brother, and let the senior brother get rid of the demon! ”
Xuan Yu suddenly understood something, and sighed: "Didn't Li Bai Sage also kill demon cultivators with mortal bodies back then?"
"At that time, the senior brother killed that demon cultivator, and he was also seriously injured. But the other monks in that world have come out, so should the senior brother also come out? ”
Xuan Yu listened to the chat between Yu'er and Chen Fatzi, his eyes searched the crowd, and finally stopped quietly in the dark outside.
What is the reason why Peng Yansheng is still reluctant to appear after being injured? Someone wants to be against him, and he can't be identified.
Xuan Yu squinted at the crowd around him, no matter what, after the sacrificial ceremony began, Peng Yansheng would show up. This festival is not only a traditional custom of the three villages, but also an annual treasure hunt, which is said to be left by the common ancestors of the three families, and every year, after the festival, each village can choose ten monks to enter it. If people from the outside world come, there is no longer a limit on the number of people who can enter.
This is the main reason why the three villages do not reject outsiders.
"Every time someone enters and comes out, they forget what they have inside, and what everyone gets can't explain where it came from."
Yu'er rubbed her eyebrows, "They can't break through Yuanying, and they can't leave this place, what's the use of asking for those things?" ”
"Against the demon beasts and demon cultivators of this world, you must know that there are no other human beings here except for these three villages, and the rest are all the territory of the demon clan. And during the period when Li Bai Sage lived, the human race and demon clan often fought! ”
