Chapter 634: Cooking Endgame 5
It's not that they haven't heard of the name of the Great Priest, but they have only heard of it. It is rumored that this divine monarch with the supreme power of the heavenly realm is cold and ruthless, and few people have seen him.
In the human world, wherever there is a place to worship the great priest's order, its statues or portraits are full of thick eyebrows and big eyes, beards like halberds, and full of ferocity like door gods.
As a result, Ti Zhen and a few people around him were fortunate to see the deity today, but they were stunned to find that this rumored extremely difficult to approach Da Si Ming was actually born so handsome and elegant, if it weren't for the aura that permeated his body was too cold and strong, this could really be a jade-faced Langjun who could make countless women fall for him.
And the most unexpected thing is that this ruthless big priest actually claims to be Qingci and a friend. What is the concept of a friend? Since they are friends, it means that they can share weal and woe together. Although Qing Ci is also a natural god race, in terms of his qualifications, he is tens of thousands of years later than the Great Si Ming.
Ti Zhen has known Qingci since he was a child, but he never knew that he actually had the ability to talk to the elders of the Great Priest.
After a short period of distraction, Ti Zhen hurriedly removed the stunned look on his face, and respectfully bowed to the air, "I don't know if the Divine Monarch is coming, Xiao Wang has many rudeness and negligence, and I hope the Divine Monarch will forgive me." ”
Kong Li shook his head indifferently, "These false gifts will be waived, and please ask the Shark King to lead the way, settle the Qing Ci first, and later this monarch will have something to discuss with the Shark King." ”
Ti Zhen nodded and glanced at the Golden Shark Saint Venerable. The Venerable immediately understood, and gestured to the three Dharma Protectors behind him, and the three Dharma Protectors immediately submerged their bodies into the sea.
Within a moment, the surface of the sea shone slightly, and the surging of the sea water suddenly became violent, making a "whooshing" sound.
Immediately afterward, the water of the sea was split in half and spread out on both sides, and a seashell staircase leading to the deep sea appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
Ti Zhen and Jin Shark Shengzun led the way in front, and Kong Li followed without saying a word.
All the way to the golden shark palace at the bottom of the sea, Ti Zhen personally took the empty space to an elegant room that looked a little inconsistent with the style of the whole palace.
Qing Ci was properly placed on a good clams bed, and the golden shark doctor with the best medicine skills in the palace was summoned to treat Qing Ci's external injuries, and when Qing Ci drank the soothing decoction and fell asleep in a daze, Ti Zhen's solemn queen posture that had been tense was finally unable to hold it.
Her eyes were red, and she felt as if she was about to cry again, and she hurriedly ran out of Qingci's room.
When he came to the backyard, Kong Li seemed to have been waiting there for a long time, and when he saw Ti Zhen come out, he only glanced at her slightly, and then quickly turned his gaze elsewhere.
What is this woman's thoughts about Qingci, Kongli sees it very clearly, a woman can only show such vulnerability if she is a man who is deeply affectionate to herself, and even with her identity as the king of her family, it is difficult to hide it in front of people.
"I've kept the Divine Monarch waiting. Ti Zhen took a deep breath and stepped forward to greet Kong Li.
Except for the time when Ti Zhen first appeared in this backyard, he had been staring at a pavilion in the deepest part of the courtyard that seemed to be a little out of place with the surrounding atmosphere.
It's not that there are no pavilions in the Golden Shark Palace, but the form and style are definitely different from this pavilion, and this pavilion should be from the human world.
But it's not just this pavilion that cares about the empty place, but also a guqin on the stone table in the pavilion. If he hadn't miscalculated, the previous owner of the room where Qing Ci was living now should have been a woman, and it was definitely not Ti Zhen.
It's just that I don't know what the relationship between this woman and Qing Ci is, Ti Zhen will actually let Qing Ci stay in this room.
"It looks like it's been uninhabited for a long time, but everything is very well preserved and cleaned. I wonder what the original owner of this house has to do with Qing Ci?" asked Kong Li lightly.
Ti Zhen followed the empty gaze, and when she saw the guqin in the pavilion, her eyes also became slightly confused, and after a long time, she said softly: "The original owner of this house is the last golden shark king of my merman clan, and her name is Suqin. ”
"Suqin?" Kong Li frowned slightly, he seemed to feel that the name was somewhat familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had heard it for a while.
"Hmm. Ti Zhen nodded, and continued: "When I was a child, I called her Aunt Qin. And she is Ah Qi's biological mother. ”
"It turned out to be her...... I didn't expect Qingci's mother to be the previous Golden Shark King. A look of surprise flashed in Kongli's cold eyes.
Seeing this, Ti Zhen smiled lightly, and then showed a little melancholy, "In my impression, Aunt Qin is a very gentle and easy-going woman, but fate treats her too cruelly. She fell in love with a man she shouldn't have fallen in love with and gave birth to a child for that man. Originally, she thought that she could stay with the man she loved for the rest of her life, but in the end, she lost to fate, stripped off her golden scales for the sake of the child, and transformed into a mortal. ”
Kongli's eyes flashed slightly, and he found that after walking in this mortal world, he became more and more unable to calmly face the infatuated men and women in the world. These infatuated women were nothing special to him in the past like any other creature in the Three Realms, but for him now, it seemed that each of them was full of Li Ji's shadow.
After being silent for a long time, Kong Li spoke: "If I remember correctly, Qing Ci's fate is a great murderer, and his father, the Qinglong King, is a serious fate. So Yan Zheng didn't like him since he was born, and even expelled him and his mother to the human world for a time, and ignored him for many years. ”
Ti Zhen sighed, "The rumors are true. ”
Kong Li turned his head and looked at her lightly, "I wonder if Benjun is lucky enough to hear the truth of the matter from the mouth of the shark king?"
Ti Zhen nodded, and a bitter smile appeared on her beautiful face, "Ah Qi's life is a big murderer, and it is indeed true that he and his uncle are destined to restrain each other." But in fact, the uncle's feelings for Ah Qi and Aunt Qin exceeded everyone's imagination. Ah Qi has completely inherited the noblest bloodline of the Qinglong clan, and is the purest bloodline that the Qinglong clan has ever seen in hundreds of thousands of years.
When Ah Qi was still in Aunt Qin's womb, his uncle knew that this unusual child might bring him disaster in the future, and this disaster might be something he was willing to bear. The reason why he snubbed Ah Qi and Aunt Qin was actually a kind of helpless protection.
In order for this child with the purest blood to spend his relatively long life safely, my uncle chose to be a wicked person, ignoring Ah Qi, and letting him grow up like a mortal.
"There are only two purposes for doing this, one is to let Ah Qi go through the tribulation in advance, in case he still has to experience the tribulation in the end, it can be regarded as washing his karma in advance, so that he can have more chances of winning when he crosses the tribulation. As for the other purpose, it is to hope that he will never experience this calamity, as long as he does not pursue strength, he naturally does not need to go through the tribulation. ”
Hearing this, Kong Li sighed silently, "What's the trouble with this? If you want to change your life against the sky, you often have to pay a very painful price." It's enough for such a madman to have wind and annihilation in this world, and everyone thinks that if they see through the heavenly machine, they can change the heavenly machine?"
Ti Zhen was slightly stunned, and said a little stunned: "Feng Annihilation, the one that the Divine Monarch said, but the Mi Ling Divine Maiden of Luohe?"
Kongli nodded, "That's right, except for her, there is no one in this world who can peep into the heavens like this, and in order to turn things around, she also set up a huge gamble." ”
Although Ti Zhen didn't know what the "gamble" meant, she also knew in her heart that what these powerful gods and goddesses wanted to do, it was not something she could ask.
Ti Zhen sighed helplessly, and said leisurely: "All beings in the Three Realms know that the destiny of heaven cannot be violated. But it's one thing to know, and it's another thing to do what you do when things do fall on you. Just like Ah Qi's father, in the face of his most distressed child, he would rather exchange the greatest pain for a glimmer of possible vitality for him.
"After all, not everyone is as indifferent as you, Divine Monarch, ruthless and desireless, and just a cold observer of the cycle of life and death. There is a lot of pain and helplessness that the Divine Monarch cannot personally experience. ”
Ti Zhen's words did not mean any sarcasm or disrespect, but the hands that were hidden under the cloak were unconsciously clenched.
The other party is right, he is indeed ruthless and desireless, cold and decisive. However, that was him in the past.
From the moment he met Li Ji more than a thousand years ago, all that began to change, and he could no longer be the same as he had been in the past.
After a long silence, Kongli finally slowly released his clenched fist. After thinking about it, he still spoke: "Forgive Benjun for taking the liberty of asking, the Shark King mentioned Qingci's mother Su Qin, saying that she peeled off her golden scales back then and transformed into a mortal. That...... Where are Suqin's golden scales now?"
Ti Zhen's eyes flashed slightly, and he asked with some vigilance: "Why did the Divine Monarch suddenly ask such a question?" Could it be that the Divine Monarch didn't know that the golden scales shed from each Golden Shark King would be woven into armor and worn on the next Golden Shark King's body. ”
"In this way, Su Qin's golden scale armor has been worn by the Shark King?" Kongli's face was as usual, but a trace of worry flashed in his eyes that was not easy for others to detect.
"Look at what the Divine Monarch means, this Golden Scale Armor is useful to the Divine Monarch? If Xiao Wang has already put Aunt Qin's Golden Scale Armor on his body, I don't know what the Divine Monarch plans to do with Xiao Wang?"
