6.2 Arcana of the Holy City (1)
With a light wind blowing, Shi Shiran, the big bird in the sky, landed in front of their gang's eyes, with an elegant smile on his face.
When they saw the figure in front of them clearly, everyone was shocked, and they all pointed to the majestic blue feather silver feather bird, and their faces were full of incredulity.
"You...... You...... You ......"
Before the bird could speak, Ke Zhenshi pushed the bird and shouted, "Why did you nasty guy appear again?" It's ghostly! ”
"Huh? The haunting spirit? The smile of the big bird with blue feathers and silver feathers froze instantly, and he frowned slightly, "What this little brother said is below?" ”
"Who calls you a brother!" Ke Zhenshi impatiently shook his face to the bird, "You are desperately squeezing us on Ninghe Island, I can't forget this!" ”
The big bird fell into thought, "Ninghe Island? ”
"Hmph, you've been acting like a man all day long, one thing in front of the elders, and another set behind your back," Hu Sang also joined the ranks of denunciation, and snorted coldly, "You still pretend to say that you have a face for your son and bloodline!" ”
The big bird was frank, "This little brother of the spirit fox, I'm afraid it's a misunderstanding!" I guess you mistook me for another chick, right? ”
"Elder Yongyan's right protector, the eldest son of the fifty-sixth generation of the Elder Yong clan, was born with a blue feather and a silver feather; Enlightened at the age of three, a rare genius in the world," Rui Gong sneered, "With your blue feathers and silver tail, where do we dare to admit our mistakes!" ”
Hearing this, the big bird arched his hand and said, "When we meet for the first time, I'd better introduce myself." Below is the steward of the Temple of the Sun and Moon Goddess, whose name is Yi Jie. ”
"Huh?!" Everyone is a little confused.
"That's right. Yi Jie has been in this holy city to manage the affairs of the temple for four years, and he has never left the holy city during this period. Seeing everyone's confused expressions, Na Yi Jie explained, "The person you met on Ninghe Island should be my twin brother Yi Fang. Because it is hatched from the same egg, it looks more similar and is easy to be mistaken. ”
"Tsk, even if you're not Yi Fang," Ke Zhenshi pouted, looked Yi Jie up and down a few times, "He looks exactly like him, and he doesn't look like a good bird!" ”
When Yi Jie heard this, he didn't get angry, but said with a smile, "Well, this brother's way of judging people is somewhat similar to my brother's. Did you learn from him? ”
"You ......" Ke Zhenshi blushed, "Who learns from him!" ”
Yi Jie laughed, walked past several teenagers, and came to Dai. Facing the little Phoenix Emperor in front of him, whose fur was dark red, but who looked extraordinary, he respectfully saluted, "You are the Phoenix Emperor?" ”
Dai nodded, "Exactly." ”
Yi Jie exclaimed, "The Dudao Phoenix and the Phoenix are auspicious divine birds transformed by the Taiyi Divine Light. Today, I can see that Lord Fenghuang is young but has an extraordinary bearing, which is really extraordinary. ”
Seeing that Yi Jie's words were respectful, not as rude and arrogant and sneering as he was in Yi Fang on Ninghe Island, Dai Cheng also let down his guard, and returned the salute with a pleasant face, "Where, where." I've heard that the chick is also a sacred bird in the spirit world. ”
"No, no, no," Yi Jie hurriedly said, "Although our Crane Chick and Luan Bird, Jinpeng and Phoenix Bird are called the four auspicious rays of the Yu Clan, they are not born with the God of Light after all, they are all mortals of the flesh and mortals of the flesh. ”
"Brother Yi Jie, I was offended just now," Hu Sang replied, "Please Haihan." I just don't know how you recognized Xiaofenghuang? ”
Yi Jie laughed and said, "Under the order of the Great Witch Rite Master, I came here to welcome the new era phoenix bird Emperor Dai into the Holy City. ”
Dai was a little uncomfortable listening to this crepe words, and asked, "I...... Me? ”
"Exactly." Yi Jie said, "The Great Witch Rite Master told me before that the newborn Feng Huang was almost at the gate of the city, and ordered me to come to greet him. ”
Husang muttered to himself on the side, "This...... How did the Great Witch Master know that Dai was coming? ”
After hearing this, Yi Jie smiled and said, "The Great Witch Rite is the Holy Spirit that can communicate with God, and its spiritual power is extraordinary; He prayed in the temple ten days ago, saying that it was the birth of the Phoenix Emperor and the opening of a new era, and we were all skeptical at the time. Two days ago, Ninghe Island sent a messenger to the Holy City to deliver the message, and only then did he know that it was true. ”
"I see," Husang nodded, "The Great Witch Rite is the most powerful archmage in the spirit world, and I have heard of this for a long time; But he never thought that he could count the birth of the Phoenix Emperor, and he could also count the Phoenix Emperor's visit to the Sun and Moon Holy City. What an eye-opener, eye-opening. ”
Yi Jie continued, "The master instructed that as soon as the Feng Emperor arrived, he would be led into the city to rest. It is also said that the Phoenix Emperor will stay here for a few days, and he will not leave until the Jewel Festival. ”
"Jewel Christmas!" Husang's eyes lit up and said, "Yes, yes, it's almost this festival!" The Holy City is probably bustling, right? ”
"It's really going to be a very lively time," Yi Jie said, "But Brother Linghu, please rest assured, you won't disturb the Feng Emperor, and we will make sure that Lord Feng Huang has a safe and happy time here." ”
Ke Zhenshi secretly asked Husang, "What is the Gem Festival?" ”
"The most important festival in our spiritual world," said Husang's fox beak at the thought of the Jewel Festival, and his face was full of joy, "a festival related to the Gem of Light!" I'll tell you more about it! ”
Ke Zhenshi was about to ask, but he heard Yi Jie ask, "Brother Linghu, take the liberty of asking, how many of you are the entourage of the Phoenix Emperor?" ”
It turned out that Yi Jie Fang Shi noticed that several Terran teenagers were different, and they didn't look like creatures in the mountains and seas at all, so he was a little confused.
"What retinue?" Ke Zhenshi put his arms around Xiao Fenghuang's neck and shouted dissatisfiedly, "It's buddy!" Buddies who live and die together! ”
Xiao Fenghuang chirped and nodded vigorously in agreement.
"I see," Yi Jie said as he looked at them with a smile on his face, "I think you have suffered a little in the desert as well. ”
Only then did a few teenagers realize that they had been walking in the desert for several days, and they were all gray-faced. They rubbed their faces with their hands in embarrassment, and arranged their hair and clothes well.
Yi Jie paced, glancing at the large and small spirit beasts stationed at the gate of the siege and at the foot of the city wall, "The Sun and Moon Kingdom is heavily guarded, and there is also an enchantment to protect each other, if you don't lead the way, I'm afraid you won't be able to enter; Except for Lord Fenghuang. ”
At this moment, Yi Jie showed a rare look of pride on his face. He led the people to the gates.
I saw a spirit beast in the shape of a goat trying to enter the city. I saw him show a token-like thing to the guards of the city gate, a group of spirit beasts with four-horned deer heads and ape-like horses' hooves. The one at the head carefully examined the token, and then gestured a few times, and a stream of spiritual brilliance came out of the token, and it was enveloped in the goat in an instant. Seeing this, the leading guard returned the token to the goat, out of the way. The goat, wrapped in Linghua, hurried into the city.
There was a long centipede next to it, waiting for an opportunity to move, trying to hide in the wool and enter the city together, but when it entered the city gate, it was beaten out by the barrier, gathered into a ball, flew down in the sinking quicksand far away from the city gate, and soon disappeared.
Fox Sang looked at the spirit stone on the city wall, shining under the last ray of sunlight, and it was starry in his eyes, "Since the adults have said so, then let's follow Lord Yi Jie." ”
Ke Zhenshi smiled and put his arm around Husang's shoulders and said, "Brother Husang, take a companion!" ”
Rui Gong shrugged his shoulders and said in Ke Zhenshi's tone, "Brother Husang, take a companion!" ”
Di Qingchuan said, "I ...... me too I'll have a companion too! ”
Xiao Fenghuang said, "Then thank you Lord Yi Jie." ”
Yi Jie waved his hand and hurriedly said, "Don't don't, don't call me 'adult', I can't afford it, just call me Yi Jie." Let's go, go into the city, go into the city!"
After that, as soon as the wings were spread, everyone was shrouded in blue spirits. "Everyone, please." With that, Yi Jie turned around and walked towards the city gate, and everyone followed behind.
The team of guards at the door saw that it was Yi Jie, and hurriedly saluted respectfully. Yi Jie said a few words to them, and they divided into two rows and stood by the city gate, allowing them to pass through.
Hu Sang and Ke Zhenshi were so happy that they followed closely behind Yi Jie, and when they passed by two rows of guards, Hu Sang hugged his paws, and the corners of his mouth were full of uncontrollable smiles, "Everyone, Lord Xuanru has worked hard!" ”
These Xuan Ru didn't respond, but when the Little Phoenix Emperor flew in front of him, they lowered their heads to show respect.
Everyone swaggered into the city, and the moment they stepped into the city gate, they felt like a spring breeze, as if something had penetrated through their skin and into their bodies with the wind, filling them with strength, and this familiar feeling reminded them of the holy land they had once set foot on. Before I could be surprised, I was attracted by the noise ahead. When I looked up, I found that there was another world in this city.
As soon as you enter the city gate, you will step on the central avenue of the Sun and Moon Holy City, and at the end of the avenue there seem to be two small peaks, which become two delicate silhouettes in the setting sun.
Looking down further, unlike the vast and rough and uninhabited desert outside, although it was already hazy moonlight at this time, there was a lively and prosperous scene in the Sun and Moon Holy City: as soon as you entered the city gate, there was a road more than ten zhang wide extending straight forward, and the stones paved on this avenue were the same as the stones of the city wall, black and yellow, even though there were dozens of tons of spirit beasts coming and going on it, it was still smooth and delicate. On the avenue, the large and small spirit beasts rubbed shoulders, and there were all kinds of beautiful spirit birds and flying beasts, dancing with bright light hovering in the air, making bursts of pleasant chirps.
On both sides of the avenue are big trees with no end in sight, and under the trees are small stalls and simple tents made of grass and leaves. Through the bright aura and some fireworks from the various exotic flowers and plants that decorate the stalls, you can see piles of strange objects placed on them, and the people who sell these objects are also spirit animals.
Seeing a winged rabbit-headed rat-body spirit beast take something out of its body after some conversation, and exchange a few seven-colored flowers and plants with the white-haired wild boar in a stall, Rui Gong smacked his tongue and said, "My God, you even know about the 'deal'." ”
"Of course." Hu Sang said proudly, "There are some things in our mountain and sea realm that are no worse than those in the human world. ”
Ke Zhenshi looked at the bustling bazaar with bright eyes and asked, "Do you also use money?" Buy these things? ”
Hu Sang said, "Money, no, but there are a lot of spirit stones that can buy things." ”
"What do you mean?" Do you exchange spirit stones? ”
Hu Sang said, "That's right, and different regions will use different kinds of spirit stones as 'money' according to the actual local situation." ”
Di Qingchuan pondered, "Why are there different spirit stones?" Isn't that troublesome? ”
"There is no way to do it, there are great differences in different regions of the mountain and sea realm." "For example, as far as I know, in your Terran world, gold and silver are very rare minerals, so you use them to make 'money' in exchange for items, but in our mountain and sea realm, the gold and silver in many mountains are as worthless as the sand and stones in the desert outside the Sun and Moon Holy City. So if you exchange the gold and silver of the Terrans for the things of these places, how can they be? ”
Listening to Hu Sang's words, Yi Jie nodded approvingly, he didn't expect this nine-tailed little white fox with no spiritual power to be so clever in his words, which made him a little impressed.
"Oh...... If I use sand, then I won't change it. Ke Zhenshi nodded as if he didn't understand, and said hurriedly, "Then what does the Sun Moon Holy City use as money?" ”
Yi Jie said, "Langji, in the Sun and Moon Holy City, all spirit beasts exchange Langji for objects. ”
"We don't have Lang Ji ......" Ke Zhenshi sneered, looked at Yi Jie and said, "Respected Lord Bird...... No, Lord Yi Jie, aren't you here to entertain us, can you ...... Well...... Can you ......?"
"It's nature." Yi Jie said heartily, "But now I don't have Langji, please go to my house to rest first, and tomorrow I will take you to visit the Sun and Moon Holy City and buy some things." ”
Seeing that Yi Jie said this, Ke Zhenshi couldn't say anything, so he could only follow behind everyone step by step, looking at the lively market that was gradually moving away.
