Chapter 757: Divine Tower
Quiet, dead quiet.
"Still won't say it?" I turned my head to look at Chen Jinghao, a little disappointed.
Chen Jinghao also spoke: "It's not that you don't want to say it, it's that it's not the time yet." ”
I raised my head and looked at the sky, the silent night, the endless night rain drifting down, I was used to this continuous rain, and said, "Isn't it time, after today, I only have three days left to live." ”
Hearing my words, Chen Jinghao's body was slightly stunned, turned his head to look at me, and asked, "Orange, what's the matter?" ”
I didn't answer him, it didn't matter anymore. Instead, he said, "You still won't tell me?" ”
"Orange ...... I ......" Chen Jinghao looked embarrassed.
Seeing Chen Jinghao's appearance, I also understood, nodded and said, "I know." ”
Time fell silent again, and then I went straight to the point and said, "Mouse." I'm here to ask you something, not about Yu Tong. ”
Chen Jinghao was relieved, looked at me and said, "What's the matter?" ”
"I want you to help me make a decision." Saying that, I told Chen Jinghao everything, and Chen Jinghao fell into deep thought after hearing it.
It's been a long time. Chen Jinghao raised his head and looked at me and asked, "What do you think?" ”
"I don't want to make things so big, I'll go to Poyang Lake tomorrow and reseal Jiaolong into the demon realm, or just beat him to death." After I'm done. looked at Chen Jinghao quietly. Of course, this is not what I thought in my heart, and I deliberately used these words to test Chen Jinghao's thoughts.
Sure enough, after Chen Jinghao heard my words, he immediately became nervous and hurriedly said, "Oranges, absolutely not." You can't seal the dragon back. ”
"Why?" I asked.
Chen Jinghao hesitated for a long time, as if he was making some important decision himself, and finally only heard Chen Jinghao speak: "Do you believe Yu Tong?" ”
I said, "Faith." ”
Immediately afterwards, Chen Jinghao asked again: "Then do you believe me?" ”
Without any hesitation, I said, "Yes." ”
Only then did Chen Jinghao speak: "Okay, I'll help you make this decision, you need to do three things, the first thing is to lift the seal on the corpse of the dragon in the Rope Gold Pagoda." ”
I looked at Chen Jinghao curiously, I didn't tell Chen Jinghao about the corpse of the dragon in the Shengjin Pagoda, since he knew it.
"What about the second and third things?" I already knew what I was knowing, but I asked.
Chen Jinghao said: "The second thing requires you to lift the heavenly lock in the gossip, and the last thing you have to do is to knock down the Zhenlong Monument in Poyang Lake." ”
The three things Chen Jinghao said were exactly the same as the old lady we heard the tanuki in the stilted building that day, plus the mysterious old lady in the medicine shop yesterday and the words I said, if they didn't get along well, I can believe one thing, that is, Jiaolong can be trusted.
Chen Jinghao said: "Help Jiaolong return to his heyday, Jiaolong will let you know a lot of things." ”
"Good!" Here is my answer.
At this time, there was a strange sound in the Sanqing Temple, and after hearing the sound, Chen Jinghao and I glanced at each other and walked towards the Sanqing Temple.
I saw that under the dim candlelight, the six children actually fell asleep on the table, and the pen and ink were spilled on the ground. The little girl named Coral also had some ink on her face.
And the strange sound that Chen Jinghao and I heard was the snoring of these six children.
Chen Jinghao and I glanced at each other, Chen Jinghao smiled bitterly, stretched out his hand and picked up the two children and walked towards the back hall of the Sanqing Temple, and said in a low voice: "Orange, help me carry them into the room." ”
I nodded. Stretched out his hand and picked up Coral and a little boy walked towards the room, when I came to the room I put the little boy down, and when I was about to put Coral down, Coral grabbed my arm tightly and shouted, "Mom and Dad." Don't leave me, I'll be good. ”
"Help, someone come to save my dad." Coral cried out loudly.
I was curious about the little girl's dream, and I stretched out my hand and gently put it on the little girl's forehead to feel the little girl's dream. It was a post-flood village with all the houses submerged in water. After a while, the corpses were blown away by the water, and it was a mess.
And on a big tree, a couple is raising their hands to hold the little girl desperately towards the tree, letting the water continue to wash over their bodies.
Seeing this scene, my heart sank suddenly. This must have been the flood that happened not long ago.
The woman began to hold on, and when her physical strength was exhausted, she squeezed out a smile and gently touched Coral's face, saying; "Child, live well, remember. Mommy loves you. After saying this, a big wave came, drowning the young mother and disappearing into the vast river.
"Daddy, Daddy. Mom is gone. Coral cried out to the man below who was also in the water.
"Child, Dad can't be with you anymore, the flood is coming again, you climb up the tree, the higher you climb, the better, Dad loves your mom and loves you." After speaking, before the water could rush, the young man let go of his hands holding the big tree, and the water washed away.
"Don't. Don't go, don't go! "In the boundless flood there was only the lonely little girl, and only the desperate cries of the little girl.
There was still hope, and at this time, a middle-aged Edgeworth wearing a Taoist robe flew to the edge of the tree and looked at the little girl on the tree.
The girl also looked at him in a daze and asked, "You, are you a god?" ”
"My name is Chen Jinghao...... I'm here to save you, would you like to go to Maoshan with me? Chen Jinghao looked at the little girl and said.
After hesitating for a long time, the little girl hugged Chen Jinghao: "Uncle Fairy, save my parents." ”
"Ouch......" I sighed softly. He removed his hand from Sango's head, and all the images of Sango's dream disappeared at this moment.
Chen Jinghao walked up to me and asked puzzledly, "Orange, what's wrong?" ”
"I thought that if we had made the wrong decision, thousands of families would have been torn apart because of us. It's a great responsibility. I said.
Chen Jinghao was silent and said, "I have to take this step no matter what, I believe that Yu Tong will not lie to me." ”
"I believe it too!" I turned my head to look at Chen Jinghao and spoke.
Night rain Mao Mountain. The lights are dim.
As the last candle of the night went out, the entire Dao Palace in the mountains fell into darkness, and tonight's sleep was the most restful I had slept in all these days, although the mountain breeze was still slightly cool.
When the new day came, I was woken up by the chirping of a group of children, and when I looked up at the window, I saw that the six Maoshan children had woken up early and were running in the drizzle.
After breakfast and dinner, I set off for the Shengjin Pagoda.
Chen Jinghao sent the three of us to the bottom of the mountain, and when we parted, Chen Jinghao looked at me quietly and said reluctantly: "Oranges." Just let me go with you. ”
I looked at the six children behind Chen Jinghao and said, "You are gone, who will take care of your six apprentices, don't worry, didn't you say that Jiaolong is credible." There will be no problem. ”
Chen Jinghao took his six apprentices and sent me to a small town ten miles away from Maoshan before I reluctantly walked back under my persuasion. Before parting, Chen Jinghao looked at me and said, "Orange, if you want to know about Yu Tong, remember to come to me three days later." ”
I said "um", and Liu Qingqian and they returned to Nanchang City and came to the foot of the Shengjin Pagoda.
It's very strange, it's raining heavily all around, but the area where Shenjin is located, there is no rain at all, and even the ground is still dry, so it can be seen that there is no rain here these days.
I looked up at the ancient tower, and saw that the ancient tower towered into the clouds, and it looked majestic in the gloomy sky.
Both water and fire, sitting in Jiangcheng.
Xu Xun is the guardian god of Nanchang City, and this quaint and beautiful ancient tower with the same name as Wanshou Palace is called the treasure of the town.
"Ye Cheng ......" when we approached the front of the Shengjin Pagoda. A hint of worry flashed on Liu Qingqian's face, and he said, "Are you sure you want to release the dragon corpse in this divine tower?" ”
Standing at the foot of the tower, I looked at Liu Qingqian puzzled and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
Liu Qingqian said worriedly: "The aura of this divine tower gathers, the rivers below converge, there should be treasures in the Shengjin Pagoda to suppress the dragon corpse, I am afraid that the dragon corpse will be let go when the time comes." Disasters will happen. ”
Xu Promise also said: "I also feel that this tower is not an ordinary god tower. ”
Without any consideration, I said, "I have made a decision last night, and now there are only three days left, and it is not time to hesitate, let's go and enter the tower." With that, I walked up the steps to the gate of the Shengjin Pagoda.
The tower door was locked, and it seemed impossible to get in.
I took a closer look around, and I could vaguely see a looming Taiji diagram in front of the door, and the breath on this Taiji diagram was very familiar to me, which I had left for more than a thousand years.
Under the gaze of Liu Qingqian and promise, I stretched out my palm and put it on the Taiji diagram in front of the door of the Shengjin Pagoda, the Taiji image felt something, and slowly released bursts of blue light, and the Taiji diagram on the door became clear.
I turned the Taiji diagram clockwise, as if I had woken up from a thousand years of sleep, and the wooden door that had been closed for more than a thousand years creaked slowly to both sides, and a smell of old wooden boards wafted out of the room.
"Let's go!" Looking at the dark rope pagoda inside, I shouted and walked in.
Xu Promise and Liu Qingqian walked in with me, and after lighting the candlelight, everything in the tower became clear. There are many relics on each floor of the tower, and perhaps because of the passage of time, these relics have been eclipsed.
Other than that, there didn't seem to be anything strange about this Rope Gold Pagoda, and the corpse of the dragon was nowhere to be found.
"Is there a mistake in the legend, where is the body of the dragon here?" After glancing around, Xu Promise said strangely.
I also looked carefully, but I felt that the age of this tower was relatively old, and the breath was relatively old, and I didn't find the figure of the dragon.
I turned my head to look at Liu Qingqian and said, "Qingqian, can you feel the breath of the dragon?" ”
Liu Qingqian shook his head and said, "I don't feel it at all." ”
"Go to the top of the tower!" With that, I walked quickly to the highest floor, and saw that in the attic of the highest floor, there was a statue of a god enshrined. This is a kind old lady, when I saw this old lady, I took a long breath, and said in a trembling voice: "How is it possible, how is it possible?" ”
"What's wrong with junior brother?" After seeing me like this, the senior sister asked puzzled. ,
"I've seen this person, it's the old woman who went to the medicine shop to find me the night before." I said.
After hearing my words, Liu Qingqian's brows also furrowed, and he looked at the statue carefully, and then said, "There is a spirit tablet here." ”
I looked in the direction that Liu Qingqian pointed to, and saw that there was a god card in front of the statue, which was already covered with dust, so we didn't notice it at first, and after Liu Qingqian gently brushed away the dust, the words on the spirit card became clear......
