......
On the afternoon of this day, two figures, one tall and one short, came from afar in the west of the earth.
The tall figure is a middle-aged man, dressed in an old cyan robe, with black and white hair, and his face reveals the vicissitudes of wind and rain, but he is kind and kind-eyed. But if you look closely, you can see that its steps are heavy, and it does not seem to have a profound cultivation.
The short figure is a little girl, about eleven or twelve years old, dressed in purple, bright eyes and pink lips, delicate eyebrows, a small cloud bun on her head, and the rest of the black silk naturally pours on her back, walking briskly, very smart, and endearing.
"Daddy, how long will it take for us to reach Tiangangmen?" the little girl asked with a pout, looking at the stretch of land.
The middle-aged man's cloudy eyes, staring at the sky, were silent, letting the wind blow his long scattered hair, as if immersed in some kind of thought.
"Daddy, did you hear me?" Seeing that the middle-aged man did not reply, the little girl shook the hand he was holding.
The middle-aged man looked at the little girl beside him with pity, smiled lovingly, and said, "Yi'er, here is more than 10,000 miles away from Tiangangmen!"
"More than 10,000 miles?" the little girl's name was Ziyi, and when she heard the middle-aged man's words, she exclaimed, and her wide eyes were even more watery.
"Daddy, if you go on like this, even if you walk for a year, you won't be able to go to Tiangangmen. Why don't you fly with me, it will be faster. Ziyi said with a smile.
The middle-aged man shook his head with a smile, and said in a voiced voice: "Now that there are all kinds of killings, flying in the sky, showing people's eyes and ears, it is tantamount to seeking a strong enemy." We still pretend to be mortals and walk on foot, slower, but much safer. ”
After saying that, an imperceptible trace of anxiety flashed in his eyes.
"Oh. Ziyi blinked, stuffed her head, pursed her lips, and said no more.
Coughing lightly, the middle-aged man continued: "Yi'er, we don't want to walk to Tiangang Gate on foot, we only need to go to Guiwu Post City a hundred miles away, and from Guiwu Post City, we can use the teleportation circle to reach Tiangang Gate immediately. ”
There was a hint of excitement in the middle-aged man's eyes. The original impulse made him leave Tiangangmen for more than ten years, and almost everyone thought he was dead.
People are tired of returning to their hometowns, the leaves fall back to their roots, they have been wandering for too long, and they can return to their hometowns, how can their emotions be unwavering?
After several days of trekking, it is getting closer and closer to Guiwu Post City. If you go on like this, it is estimated that you will be able to arrive at Guiwu Post City in a day or two. If he can return to the sect he belongs to, he will no longer have to wander and hide in the wind and rain, and he can also give the little girl who has been wandering with him for many years a stable place to grow up.
Ziyi's eyes lit up, and she clapped her hands happily and said, "Okay, I'm about to reach the place where the immortals live, and I will be able to fly around in the sky like my father in the future." ”
Ziyi looks at the sky, full of expectations.
The middle-aged man looked at the lively and lovely Ziyi, smiled lovingly, and held her hand a little tighter.
"Daddy, is there really an immortal living in Tiangangmen, are you also an immortal in it?" Ziyi suddenly raised her eyebrows and asked.
The middle-aged man smiled, stroked his beard in his right hand and said, "In the past, my father was a half-immortal, but now that he is old, he has to be a mortal." After speaking, there was a hint of loneliness in his eyes, and his steps became even heavier.
Ziyi lowered her head and pondered for a few steps, then raised her head and said, "Daddy, it's so boring to walk slowly like this, you can tell me something interesting!"
The middle-aged man hid the faint loneliness, raised the corners of his mouth, and said: "Okay, the legends and mysteries of this world, even if I talk about it for a year and a half, I can't tell a dime of the nine." Well, let's start with some simple ones. ”
Ziyi pricked up her ears, her steps were no longer so hurried, and she listened intently to the middle-aged man's words. For more than ten years, she has been living with middle-aged men. Just a few months ago, the middle-aged man said that he would take her back to the Daomen, which made her excited for a long time. What she saw and heard made her even more curious.
The middle-aged man's clumsy and desolate voice sounded, like a preacher, telling the magic of the world.
"There are many things that I have not personally experienced or seen, but I have learned from ancient texts. Now I tell you that it will seem mysterious, but in the future, you may experience it for yourself. ”
"Legend has it that the world is round. In the center of the earth, there is a pillar called Tianshu, with a diameter of 108,000 miles, piercing through the heavens and the earth, infinite and endless, and cannot be seen by non-cultivators. But those who can see have to take a detour. The person who can't be seen, but he can go from one end to the other without hindrance, only one step away, which is wonderful. ”
"With Tianshu as the center, there is a vast land, the earth is so big, it is said that there are hundreds of millions of miles, this is the central source continent, and we are now located in the central source continent. The specific location is located in the southeast area of the central source continent. Tiangang Gate is in front of us, more than 10,000 miles to the east, on the top of Wuyuan Mountain. ”
The middle-aged man pointed to the east, but there were no man-made structures in the east except for the vast land and the faint mountains. But Ziyi felt that her sight was being pulled beyond time and space, reaching the top of the ethereal and mysterious Abyss Mountain.
The middle-aged man put down his hand and continued: "Legend has it that there are four heavenly pillars, which are located in the southeast, southwest, northeast, and northwest directions, and these four heavenly pillars are also far, far away from the central source continent where we are. I haven't been able to go there because it's so far away. The world is big, unimaginably big. Even if it's a huge central source continent, it's just a small pebble on the giant peak......"
Ziyi listened quietly, one moment her eyes opened her mouth in surprise, one moment she clenched her fists in excitement, and the other she looked forward to nine days of fugue...... The casual and flexible temperament of the youngest daughter's family is vividly displayed.
"Daddy, look, there seems to be a big pit in front of you! It's so strange, all the way, the terrain has been very flat, how can there be a big pit here? It seems that something has just smashed out of the pit......
Ziyi struggled to stand on her tiptoes and stared at it. The pit was still a hundred feet away from her, and tiptoeing to look at it was of no avail, but out of curiosity, Ziyi still tiptoed to look at it.
The middle-aged man frowned, and his spiritual sense probed, and there was a faint breath of life hidden in the pit, and he couldn't help frowning even tighter.
"Within a radius of thousands of miles, birds and beasts are extinct, and there is no grass, where is the breath of life?"
Ziyi has always been under the protection of a middle-aged man, has not been deeply involved in the world, is almost unsuspecting of danger, and her pure heart is completely occupied by curiosity. She let go of the middle-aged man's hand and trotted all the way in the direction of the big pit.
The middle-aged man shook his head and smiled bitterly, and also quickened his pace, keeping up with it, and the spiritual power of his right hand was running, secretly protecting Ziyi.
"Daddy, there seems to be a person lying at the bottom of the pit, motionless, as if there is no breath!" Zi Yi stood outside the pit and said in a condensed voice, not feeling scared at all, but showing a look of pity.
Because the pit was surrounded by dusty dust, Ziyi's delicate body, wrapped in not very thick spiritual power, was quietly suspended three inches above the ground. This kind of strength is the limit that she can reach after exerting her strength with all her might.
