Chapter 18: Unexpected Encounters
"Eclipse Yin?" Speaking of this name, Ming Xue had a little impression, this name seemed to be deeply engraved in her mind, and after Ghost Xi mentioned it, it suddenly became clear, but some of the specific content was still too vague to remember at all. Pinshu.com
"En" Ghost Xi nodded, although this Eclipse Yin is nominally his eldest brother, but he doesn't like him, he always feels that this person has a cold atmosphere, which makes people not want to get close, plus he is a person who is only used to it, he flirts with beautiful women on weekdays, goes out to travel or something, and does not often contact this person.
"There is also a rule in the demon world, if you think your strength is outstanding, you can find someone to challenge at any time, if you win, you can take over everything from that person, if you lose, you must die, this is called life and death, a challenge that is either life or death."
"Yes!" Ming Xue said that she was very puzzled by this, if she really governed a place like this, it would not be messed up, as long as the force was strong enough, wouldn't it be windy and rainy. However, it seems understandable that an aggressive people has such a rule.
Ming Xue suddenly wanted to go to the Demon World sooner, and the yearning for the Demon World in her heart was getting stronger and stronger, she was very curious about what kind of world this was, maybe when she got there, she could remember all of her and know all the past, instead of just listening to the ghost Xi's narration like now.
"Who do you think my strength can defeat in the Demon Realm?" Mingxue suddenly became curious about this one again, and it was obvious that she couldn't even beat Ghost Xi now.
Ghost Xi smiled and said, "Just your little bit of Taoism, if you go to the demon world, you will only be abused!" ”
"Huh?" Ming Xue was disappointed for a while, thinking that even if she couldn't beat a demon king of Guixi's level, she should be able to beat other people!
Ghost Xi nodded her nose, and Ming Xue hurriedly snatched it away, "I don't think you're much taller than me?" "I'm still quite unconvinced.
"Haha, if it is true that it is not much higher in the human world, but the human world and the demon world are different after all, I have actually been suppressed a large part of my cultivation here, and now it is only one-tenth of what I have shown, Xiaoxue has reached the demon world, and she can also greatly increase her skills, and she will still be very powerful at that time!"
Ming Xue is naturally powerful, otherwise how could she be a little troublemaker in the demon world back then, everyone is afraid of her.
Hearing this, Ming Xue was childishly satisfied, and nodded proudly: "That's!" I'm almost on the Endless Island! ”
After saying that, Ming Xue turned her gaze to the front and suddenly sighed.
Who knew that the ghost Xi struck mercilessly: "It's still early, Endless Island, as the name suggests, is the end of the sea, the sea is endless, with infinity and poverty, we need to go all the way north, until the end of the barren sea." ”
"The end of the barren sea? Is the barren sea the sea against which the Tianshan Mountains rest? "It's a sea area bordering Tianli, frozen all year round.
Oni-hee nodded slightly.
"Then why don't you go from Tianli, isn't it closer?" Mingxue was puzzled.
Ghost Xi sighed, he didn't want to bring up a sad past there, and he didn't want to think of the goddess who had frozen him for nearly 10,000 years.
Mingxue stopped talking in amusement, and the two parties were speechless.
The days at sea were so dull that they had managed to survive nearly two months' journey, and when they reached an area of ice, everything ahead of them could no longer be reached by ships, but they needed to get down and walk away.
After all, Liu Ying'er and Lan Qinyan are not people who go out often, seeing such a scene, they instinctively showed a frightened expression, the weather was cold, even if they put on a thick jacket, they shivered from the cold.
"Where the hell are you taking us?" Liu Ying'er finally couldn't help but ask, how could she, a pampered eldest lady, endure such hardship, the complaints in her heart, and the previous imprisonment and grandfather's death, all broke out, and she was determined not to take a step forward. She refused to leave, and Lan Qinyan naturally refused to go on the road.
"You're still on the bar, aren't you? If you don't go, you'll freeze to death here alone! Zitong said coldly, she really can't stand this eldest lady.
Lan Qinyan was very distressed when she heard this, and protected Liu Ying'er in her arms, and warmed her by the way. "She didn't mean it, let's go together!"
"Qin Yan, when did you become so obedient?" Under her instigation, Lan Qinyan was originally a very rebellious character, but at this moment, he didn't even think about resisting at all, but was so obedient.
Lan Qinyan showed a look of displeasure on his face when he heard this, but he did not lose patience because of this, but said calmly: "Sister Mingxue, they are not bad people, they are as warm as relatives, they will not harm me!" ”
"You ......" Liu Ying'er was angry, she couldn't imagine that the person she had been ** for so many years would turn around and help others speak, what she didn't know, when she tried to stun Lan Qinyan that day, the kind of trust they had established since childhood had already cracked.
Ming Xue glanced at Liu Ying'er, sneered and said: "Let's go to the boat to get some necessary things, and then destroy the boat, if Miss Liu really doesn't want to follow, I can't help it, we won't force it!" ”
When Liu Ying'er heard that she was going to destroy the ship, she panicked, she wanted Lan Qinyan to take the ship back with her, but Mingxue's trick made it difficult for her not to want to follow!
After a while, Guixi and Zitong had already packed their things, according to Guixi's estimate, they should still have three days to travel from the Endless Island, so they prepared four days' food, and then destroyed this big ship that took so much time to build by Lan Qinyan.
Lan Qinyan watched his works burn down, and felt sad and nostalgic in his heart, but he was not distressed, now he has nothing worth feeling sorry for, no home, no restraints, free, alone.
Mingxue and the others glanced at Lan Qinyan, and saw that he still remembered that Liu Ying'er refused to step forward, so they left by themselves.
Liu Ying'er thought that the situation was like this now, and if the other party persuaded them again, she would go down the steps, but who knew that Mingxue didn't say a word, and left like this, angry in her heart, but the two of them only took a little material out, and they couldn't support it for a few days, if they didn't follow Mingxue and them, it would definitely be a dead end.
At the moment, Liu Ying'er can't care about so many face problems, so she keeps up, and since Liu Ying'er has followed, Lan Qinyan naturally has no reason to fall behind.
Although it is very cold here, the wind and snow are not big, and although a few people are a little slippery walking on the ice, since they are supported together, the chance of falling is much less.
Naturally, Liu Ying'er's complaints were indispensable along the way, and a few people listened to it as gossip.
Getting closer and closer to the Endless Island, Mingxue's mood is becoming more and more complicated, both excited and uneasy, no matter what kind of emotions prevail, even she herself can't talk about it.
On the evening of the third day, the group arrived at the rumored Endless Island.
If it weren't for Ghost Hee reminding them that they had arrived, I'm afraid no one would believe that this was the Endless Island.
A world of ice and snow seemed to be no different from the path they had walked.
"This is the Endless Island? Are you sure? Zitong asked in disbelief. How did you recognize it? ”
Ghost Xi smirked and said, "I naturally recognize it, do you see that huge ice tree?" ”
Everyone looked up and saw a huge ice tree standing upright, but what was the matter with this tree, how could the naturally formed ice be so shaped?
"That's the famous Fuso wood!"
"Huh?" Zitong was most surprised, how could she, a fanatic of plants, not hear rumors about hibiscus trees? The highest person in the world, Fusang has no branches and trees, up to the sky, winding and bending, through three springs! The legendary Fusang Mutong Three Realms Gate, how could it be like this.
Guixi smiled and said: "Originally, it didn't look like this, I remember before, it was still verdant and green, straight to the sky, it was really a great wonder of the Three Realms, this king likes to come to see the scenery when he has nothing to do, and it is really a great pleasure to sit on the Fusang tree and drink!" ”
"And then?"
"Later, like this, the road to heaven was broken, the gate to the earth was frozen, and now there is only this ghost look left, but you look crystal clear, doesn't it have a different flavor!" While talking, they approached Fusang Wood, this is the only way to lead to the Demon Realm, there must be an altar in front of it, and when the time comes, with the help of the power of the four ancient artifacts, the seal on the altar will be broken, and the gates of the three realms will definitely be reopened.
"I guess you don't know! This desolate sea is the origin of the Three Realms, and the endless island at the end of this desolate sea is naturally the gateway to the Three Realms, which was a household name in the past, but now it has gradually faded out of people's minds. I'm almost forgotten about it! ”
mentioned forgetting words, Ming Xue's heart was gloomy, and Zitong came over and held her hand very intimately.
"I've been waiting for you here for a long time!" An elegant voice suddenly came in, and it was particularly clear in the clear ice and snow.
Everyone looked up, and a person in front of them was wearing a snow-white wool cloak, standing with his back to them, like an independent handsome son.
Others may not know him, but Ming Xue has already recognized him.
"Silence? How did you get here? ”
"Xue'er, I haven't asked you about the goodbye last time, but you asked me first?" He turned around slowly, still with an infinitely beautiful, elegant and peerless face, this is a man who Ming Xue has never understood, I don't know what he means by waiting here, could it be that he knows the origin of Ming Xue?
