Chapter 35: The Temporal Storm
Early the next morning, Ye Xiu, who was immersed in cultivation, was awakened by Bao'er's voice.
When I opened the door, Bao'er at this time actually changed into a pair of shopkeeper's clothes, and after inquiry, I learned that she had been promoted to the shopkeeper of the hall on the first floor by Jin Mantang last night.
After Ye Xiu congratulated Bao'er, he was taken to a carriage that had been prepared a long time ago, and the carriage was similar to Chen Ping's carriage before, but it was more spacious and luxurious.
A few of the servants in charge of the carriage waited in front of the carriage to open the door for Ye Xiu early, obviously they had already been ordered, and after Bao'er and the servants gave a few more instructions, the carriage drove quickly towards the outside of the city.
I have to say that the carriage of this Wanbao Pavilion is indeed extraordinary, under the blessing of the magic circle, it is not only stable and stable, but also extremely fast, and it takes less than half an hour to come to a dock-like place outside the city.
When Ye Xiu arrived, there were a lot of workers busy carrying goods to a huge building ship, which looked like an ordinary sailboat on the surface, but the place where the sails should have been placed was empty.
Ye Xiu's divine sense probed and found that the entire hull was engraved with a formation similar to that on the flying boat, to be precise, the formation group, dozens of small formations were staggered together to form a formation group, so that even if some of the formations or formation eyes were destroyed, the entire formation group could still continue to work, ensuring the safety of this spaceship.
Seeing Ye Xiu's carriage coming, a shopkeeper-like person walked out of the crowd, and politely arched his hand towards Ye Xiuyi:
"Compared to this, this is Ye Xiu--Ye Gongzi, right? In Xia Lu Buwei, it is the shipkeeper of this spaceship, Ye Gongzi's affairs, Jin Da's shopkeeper has told me, you can rest assured that the merchant ship is ready, we can set off now!"
After Ye Xiu thanked the shopkeeper Lu, he followed him on the spaceship, and he didn't feel anything when he watched the carriage in the distance just now, but when he came to the ship, he realized that the spaceship was huge, and the deck alone was probably a thousand feet long, and several ten-story small buildings were built on the deck, which was extremely spectacular.
It's just that just as Ye Xiu was exploring the layout on the spaceship, there was a strange voice of yin and yang next to him:
"Whew, I'm a big man, it's just a stinky boy, and Miss Ben has been waiting for so long. ”
At this time, in order to act conveniently, Ye Xiu had already put the Heavenly Dao clothes that represented his true disciples of the Heavenly Dao Sect into the storage ring, and changed them into an extremely ordinary gray-white Dao robe, coupled with his young age, he was instantly identified as a stinky boy by the owner of this voice.
And Ye Xiu at this time, he also looked at the owner of the voice, and found that it was a girl who was eighteen or nineteen years old, the girl looked quite a little beautiful, with a slender figure and a handsome face, giving people a sense of slimness, even if she was not as good as Yue Ling'er, but she was also a super beauty of the same level as Xia Randie, but she looked like the pearl of a certain family, she was spoiled since she was a child, and her temperament and temperament were more than a few points worse than the two!
The girl saw Ye Xiu looking for a voice, and the gaze that looked at her was so unabashed, she couldn't help but feel embarrassed again, but was interrupted by a voice beside her:
"Mengqi, dissipate your anger, presumably this little brother should not know the time of departure of this merchant ship, so he came late. ”
The owner of the voice is a handsome young man, about the age of his early twenties, wearing the robe of the core disciple of the Heavenly Dao Sect, and his cultivation is not weak, and he is faintly about to break through to the realm of the third-grade Taoist, this person looks like a righteous gentleman and a handsome son at first glance, but Ye Xiu, whose divine sense is different from ordinary people, faintly felt a cold aura from this person, but this aura was extremely weak, so that Ye Xiu could not judge for a while.
Just as Ye Xiu wanted to use his Dao technique to further investigate, a little girl's excited shout came from a distance:
"Sister, sister, come and see, the spaceship is about to take off!"
Hearing this voice, the girl named Mengqi also had a big head, and she originally wanted to complain to Ye Xiu, but at this time, she had to run over and grab a little girl who wanted to climb to the bow of the boat, and the young man also hurriedly followed.
At this time, Lu Buwei, who was beside Ye Xiu, naturally knew the identity of Ye Xiu's true disciple of the Heavenly Dao Sect, and he also listened to the girl's sarcastic words about Ye Xiu just now, he didn't want a few people to make something happen on his boat, so he hurriedly said that he would play a round:
"Ye Gongzi, the girl just now is the eldest lady of the Shen family in Fengdu City, called Shen Mengqi, his father is the current head of the Shen family is my friend, and this time I specially asked me to bring her back to Fengdu City. This little girl has been spoiled in Fengdu City since she was a child, and she hopes that Ye Gongzi will sell her husband a face, but don't be like her. ”
"Shopkeeper Lu is serious, I, Ye Xiu, am not a stingy person, so I naturally won't take this kind of trivial matter to heart. ”
Ye Xiu naturally wouldn't have trouble getting along with a woman, but when he heard that the shopkeeper Lu in front of him seemed to know Fengdu City very well, he asked curiously:
"I just heard Shopkeeper Lu mention Fengdu City, compared to the fact that I know a lot about it, can I tell you about it in detail?"
At this time, the huge merchant ship has been slowly lifted into the air under the urging of countless magic circles, and the specific operation is in charge of the crew members on its own ship, and the shopkeeper Lu and Ye Xiu introduced the information of Fengdu City:
It turns out that this Fengdu City is an ancient city with a very long history, and I heard the legend that it was called Xudu City a long time ago, as for why it is called this name, it is because the time is too long, and even the shopkeeper Lu himself is not clear.
Unlike Wuling City, the entire Fengdu City is completely within the strength of the Heavenly Dao Sect, and there are two major families in the city, namely the Shen family mentioned earlier, and another family called the Xiao family.
The relationship between the two families is naturally extremely delicate, although it has always been an open and secret fight, but on the surface it has maintained a balance, until the former head of the Shen family, Shen Yuehai, disappeared mysteriously twenty years ago, this balance began to be gradually broken.
At that time, Shen Yuehai was the first genius of the Shen family for hundreds of years, and his cultivation talent was different from ordinary people, and he became the first master of the Shen family at a young age, and took over the position of the head of the family, but he suddenly disappeared when he went out to search, and the Shen family sent people to search everywhere to no avail, and only then did they elect a new head of the family, that is, Shen Mengqi's father, Shen Yuefeng, as the new head of the family.
Although Shen Yuefeng is upright and has a wide range of friends, it is a pity that his cultivation talent is mediocre, and he is stuck at the peak of the third-grade Taoist realm and cannot break through, while on the other hand, Xiao Yuanshan, the head of the Xiao family, has already entered the first-grade Taoist realm more than ten years ago, although the two families have hidden the Taishang elders of the first-grade Taoist realm, but these elders are all very old, and there is no strong person in the Daoist realm on the surface, and the Shen family is naturally a head shorter than the Xiao family everywhere, and there are gradually signs of being annexed by the other party.
Although Shopkeeper Lu and Shen Yuefeng, the head of the Shen family, were close friends, they couldn't help because of the rules of Wanbao Pavilion.
And the young man in white who spoke before was Xiao Jian, the son of the Xiao family, who was also extremely talented since he was a child, and became the core disciple of the Heavenly Dao Sect in his early twenties, and the Xiao family saw that Shen Yuefeng only had two daughters under his knees, so he intended to let Xiao Jian marry Shen Mengqi, and take advantage of the marriage between the two families to annex the Shen family.
Therefore, when Xiao Jian heard that Shen Mengqi came to Tiandao City to investigate the Shen family's property in Tiandao City, he was very enthusiastic to accompany him, and after the survey was over, he also escorted the two daughters home on the pretext of going home to visit relatives together.
As for the other young lady of the Shen family, it was the little girl who was shouting at the bow of the boat just now, called Shen Qiqi, who was only less than five years old, and she was extremely cute when she was bouncing.
After having a general understanding of the strength of Fengdu City, Ye Xiu didn't ask about other things, and after thanking the ship's shopkeeper Lu Buwei, he started his cultivation in the quiet room arranged by the Wanbao Pavilion, before his breakthrough was too fast, and there were many aspects that needed to be consolidated.
After cultivating like this for a few days, Ye Xiu suddenly felt that the whole room shook violently, and after walking out of the quiet room, he found that the surrounding heaven and earth had changed color, and the entire spaceship was driving in a black cloud at this time, and there was a huge whirlwind that could be seen by the naked eye around him hitting the spaceship where Ye Xiu was, even if the defensive circle of the merchant ship was fully opened at this time, there were already many places damaged.
At this time, the people on the ship were already in a mess, Ye Xiu's quick sense of consciousness probed out, and found the location of the ship's shopkeeper Lu Buwei, fortunately, at this time, this old shopkeeper can be regarded as having been tempered for a long time, and he is still not alarmed, and is directing the crew to maintain the magic circle on the bow deck.
Ye Xiu dodged a few times and came to the side of the ship's shopkeeper and asked:
"Shopkeeper Lu, I don't know what's going on?"
At this time, the face of the old cabinet was also oozing fine sweat, and he said with some worry:
"This voyage old man has been driving for many years, and it is the first time he has encountered this situation, judging by the situation, we should have encountered the legendary space storm!"
As soon as he finished speaking, before Ye Xiu could continue to ask, a terrifying huge mouth was cracked in the sky deep in the black clouds in front of him, and an endless suction force came out from this huge rift, and countless black clouds and whirlwinds were sucked into it, and the spaceship where Ye Xiu was was also pulled by this huge suction force, and was sucked into that rift.
For a while, the entire spaceship shook even more violently, and after passing through the rift, Ye Xiu felt as if he had entered another world, where there was endless yellow sand everywhere, huge hills composed of yellow sand, undulating, extending into the distance, with no end in sight.
The spaceship seemed to have completely lost control at this point, and fell straight downward, with a loud bang, and plunged headlong into a huge sand dune...
