Chapter 28: The Covenant Concluded Under the Fireworks ...
In the quiet room, no one opened their mouths to answer the request made by the god who had just been stunned.
The curtains, which had just been burned to the point of being torn by the blazing flames, fluttered up with the wind blowing in from the window, and the devastated floor did not spare the slightest reservation to reveal all the battles that had just taken place in the room.
There was also the dragonfly guard who had been standing silently behind the stinging god, but his hand had never left the knife at his waist. At this time, he was staring at Lin Feng with cross-eyebrows, and he couldn't wait to rush over the shame that Yixue had just been transformed back into his original appearance.
Lin Feng looked at him, and a light smile hung on his lips. He tilted his head slightly, squinting at the dragonfly guard standing behind the stunned god and not daring to act recklessly, as if with a mocking expression.
"Space, the door?"
Finally, the silence was shattered by the blazing doubts. She didn't seem to understand what the Stunned God was talking about about the Space Gate, and turned her head to look at Lin Feng with confusion.
At this time, Lin Feng also faced the blazing tide, and shook his head lightly with a slight frown, signaling her not to talk nonsense.
"Yes, in fact, the concubine entered the door of space not to change the past, or to obstruct something. Instead, if you want to trouble Miss Blazing Tide, you can help the concubine put this pendant in one place. ”
As he spoke, the stunned god slowly took out a small gourd pendant inlaid with gold and jade from his sleeve and put it on the coffee table.
The small gourd was only the size of the joints of one of Blazing Tide's fingers, and its pale green color was wrapped in a golden thread that looked like a few slender strands of hair. The lines on the gold thread are clear, but because they are a little far away, they can't see what is carved on it.
Above the gourd is a delicate knot made of thick red thread, which looks like a jade pendant or fan pendant worn around the waist in ancient times. But the red knot looked old and dark, like something left over from a long time ago.
Below are three small balls of hanging gold wires, which seem to be integrated with the gold wires inlaid around the gourd, and naturally fall down.
"This pendant is a personal object of a good friend when the concubine is not yet the god of solar terms..."
……
A thousand years ago. At that time, Lu was just one of the most common and common auras in the mountains.
"Reiki" is the gas that gradually condenses in the mountains after the wind, frost, rain and dew, and the sun and the moon, because they are formless and colorless, and they are born weak, and many demon spirits like to rely on the source of magic that devours them to strengthen their strength. On the contrary, the aura also strengthens itself by absorbing the source of magic left over from the demons who died in the wilderness for various reasons.
In this way, the "demon spirit" and the "aura" maintain a relationship of prey to each other all year round, although the reiki will always remain passive in this relationship. Therefore, they like to cling to trees or stones all year round to hide and protect themselves.
One day, Lu was resting beside a small stream, and it was early spring, and the freshly melted stream was flowing from the other end of the mountain stream into the largest and most beautiful lake in the mountain forest.
The dew clings to a tender green leaf that falls into the stream, and floats slowly in the sun, along with the river. Suddenly, a white light flashed in the sky, like a seed of light stripped from the harsh sunlight, and fell straight into the moon lake not far away.
Dew pulled out of the leaves and flew to the Lake of the Moon with a heart full of curiosity.
On the surface of the lake, fine ice slag is still floating on it, and the sun shines in front of you. The surface of the lake is clear and scattered with a few leaves, and the fine ice is like the moon god shattering his own mirror and spilling into the lake, starry and dazzling, as beautiful as its name.
Lu kept looking in around the edge of the Moon Lake, hoping to find the source of the light she had just seen. Finally, she found it in a stone at the bottom of the lake.
But it's not a rare thing, it's the same aura as yourself. The only difference is that its body is covered in various scars. And obviously, it was caused by the attack of the demon spirit, and perhaps, it took a lot of effort to escape from the predation of the demon spirit and fall here.
Lu rescued it from the lake and looked around cautiously, fearing that some demon would follow the smell, so she attached it to a leaf and dragged it back to her place in the deep forest.
It wasn't until it had fully recovered from its injuries that Lu learned its name, 'Cang'.
But unexpectedly, no spirit followed its scent during this time.
Because the aura has no home and no foundation to be stationed, Cang Ben stayed at the invitation of Lu and kept each other company.
Dew likes to enjoy the sunshine and silence when spring comes, floating quietly on the green leaves of the stream. On the other hand, Cang likes to wander the deep forests, looking for dead spirits, or looking weaker than him, to fight and devour the source of their magical power.
Time flies in the mountains, with harsh winters and scorching heat, and demons and spirits. There are fewer and fewer surviving auras in the forest, and whether the newly condensed immature auras can survive and how long they can survive depends on luck.
Cang is still competitive, and every time he returns with an injury, Lu is very angry. But whenever Lu angrily knocked Cang's head with his hand to make him have a little more memory, there was always a trace of crystal in his eyes.
In order to survive, Lu and Cang have also migrated with the passage of time, and the magic that has gradually precipitated has also given them some power to protect themselves and each other. It can also be temporarily transformed into something tangible, and go outside to take a look.
At a temple fair held by people under the mountain forest, Lu and Cang turned into human forms and went down the mountain to join in the fun.
Because the aura is an invisible existence, even if it changes into a human form, it is different from other demon spirits or ordinary humans. Their skin is white and almost transparent, and their silver hair is even more dazzling in the dark.
At that time, the gods had already balanced the life patterns of ordinary people and magic wielders like a scale, so even these two dazzling guys played in the temple fair.
They wore two large flower-faced masks bought at the temple fair, chased each other and ran through the streets and alleys until the end of the temple fair, and then returned to the top of the mountain, sitting together on the highest branch in the mountain, waiting for the last fireworks of the temple fair.
Suddenly, Lu took out a delicate gold-inlaid jade gourd from his cuffs, and said with a smile that when he saw this small gourd for the first time, he felt that it matched Cang very well, and it was clear and delicate.
Then, Lu ripped off the red band she had used to tie her hair, and her long silver hair fell like moonlight.
Lu delicately tied a cute prismatic knot on the small gourd with the torn headband, and then hung it around Cang's waist with her own hands.
Cang smiled and sat on the branch, looking at Lu's happy and satisfied side face, his hand naturally touched the small gourd on his waist, and smiled happily.
Suddenly, Cang asked Lu, do you know why she always goes to the demon spirit?
Lu just shook her head and didn't answer to that, her eyes kept staring at the sky expectantly waiting for the moment when the fireworks would take off.
Cang put the mask on his forehead, looked up at the sky with Lu and said leisurely, his dream in this life is to become a god in charge of the spring solar terms, no matter what, as long as it can melt the ice and snow and bring warmth to everyone, it is its greatest wish.
Lu asked it, "Why does it have to be spring?" ”
At this time, there was a boom, and the fireworks exploded. A ray of sunlight soars into the sky and then explodes into dazzling fireworks.
Lu shook her hands happily and said cheerfully like a child, "Look, look, it's so beautiful." ’
"Because the people I like, I like spring the most..."
Cang's gentle voice lingered in his ears, illuminating the mountain stream like sunlight with the fireworks, and then scattered in the sky like petals, and a gentle kiss suddenly fell softly on Lu's lips.
-
The god of solar terms has to be replaced every 700 years, and for the choice of the god of solar terms, the god naturally has his own set of rules and conditions for selection.
That is, from the many aura, the forty-eight sources of magic power are selected to be the strongest and survive in the world for a one-year internship as the god of solar terms. And in order to accompany Cang, Lu and his group served as an intern for the god of solar terms.
That year, there was a great drought in the sky, and as the god of solar terms for the internship, the strength of the two of them was simply not enough to sound the spring thunder and disperse the insects to rain spring on the earth. After the insects woke up, they gnawed away a large number of crops, making the already arid land even more messy.
People continue to bow down in the temple of the god of solar terms, praying for the spring rain.
Eventually, Lu and Cang heard from a passing demon that a cave in the distant mountains contained a spring that would never dry up, and decided to go and bring the spring water into the field herself.
The two of them came to the rumored cave, and the further they went, the darker it became. Cang held Lu's hand tightly until they went into the deepest part of the cavern, and the two finally discovered the "Eye of the Clear Spring" that the demons had legendary.
In a small depression stood a cylindrical fountain, and on top of it was a sphere that glowed a dull green like a pearl of the night. When the water in the depression dries up, the shiny sphere gushes out like a fountain of clean water to fill the area.
Dew was overjoyed, and broke free of her hand and ran happily towards the Eye of the Spring, taking it from its cylindrical holding.
At this moment, the glowing spring water in the depression suddenly lost its luster, and even the eye of the spring that Lu was holding in his hand lost its original faint light.
"Lu, be careful, put it back quickly!" Cang shouted when he saw this.
But apparently it was too late, and this legendary eye of the clear spring was not a sacred thing that could bring infinite sweet springs, but a seal that suppressed evil spirits. The evil spirits are constantly purified through the water oozing from the eyes of the clear spring, and the evil spirits that have not been completely purified are now liberated.
A dark purple shadow erupted from the spring, and the bright red eyes, mixed with ghostly laughter swirling from the cave, rushed towards the dew who was holding the eye of the spring......
