Chapter 153: Qi Yue is the furnace
"What's your name?"
"Season sheep. What about you. ”
"Liu Yun."
"I haven't heard of it."
"Each other."
Following behind Ji Yang, Liu Yun went down the steps and walked in the underground secret passage of the Qi Temple.
Liu Yun is not a person who has no defense, but there are always some people in the world who will make you lose your defense for no reason. It's not because they say or do something, but it's an indescribable feeling, Ji Yang is such a person. He was like a messenger who walked out of the legendary underground palace and walked in the yang world, which was incompatible with the earthly world, which made Liu Yun very relieved.
"This kind of place, you must come often."
Staring at Ji Yang's back, Liu Yun said.
"In the ancestral temples of princes and great families, there are often many secret passages, either to store gold and silver treasures, or to escape." Ji Yang did not hide it: "Sometimes the expenses are too large, and the money issued by the court is not enough to cover the travel expenses, so I will also take some gold, silver and jewelry." ”
"Yes, yes, as long as there is more oil and water, it is a good errand."
Liu Yun smiled slightly, and his gaze moved to the murals on both sides.
The mural is long and consists of many character scenes, from beginning to end, like a complete story, with a large gecko at the heart of the story.
Liu Yun watched as he walked. The big gecko came out of the sea, occupied a mountain and river, endangered the people, and was killed by the strong, after breaking the gecko's belly, a teenager came out of it, fought in the north and south, and finally became a prince of a country.
"He should be the ancestor of the Qi Yue Tang Clan." Ji Yang seemed to have eyes on the back of his head, explaining to Liu Yun.
"Donald is the son of a gecko?" Liu Yun said in a strange voice.
Ji Yang let out a crow-like laugh.
"Geckos are also known as hidden dragons in folklore. So he is also a dragon. ”
"I see, but aren't the vassal states of Tianyong all built by the heroes who are loyal to Emperor Zichen? Why did another dragon run out? ”
"The princes, like the emperor, are the kings of a country, that is, they represent the gods of heaven and earth, and naturally need all kinds of auspicious legends to set off their nobility and extraordinary."
"I see what you mean. Creating auspicious and compiling legends is a common means used by kings. ”
Before they knew it, the two of them walked to the end of the corridor.
Ji Yang paused suddenly, stopped, and there was a rare fluctuation in his voice: "However, the legend about the ancestor of the Tang clan may not be exactly a legend. ”
Liu Yun did not answer.
What appeared in front of him and Ji Yang was a lake that had sunk into the ground. The lake is endless, there are fish and shrimp, and aquatic plants, which are obviously living water, and it looks like it is connected with the Mingyue River.
In the depths of the earth without the moon and candles, I should have lost my fingers.
Now it was as bright as day.
Two rounds of the "full moon" float on the water, and the light comes from the "full moon".
Through the rippling blue lake, Liu Yun could see the huge body, and Liu Yun had seen it many times along the way, so he was no stranger.
"Great gecko?"
As soon as he spoke, those huge eyes showed fear, and he sank to the bottom of the water with a "whoosh".
Liu Yun and Ji Yang looked at each other and laughed at the same time.
"Such a big guy, it turned out to be a coward."
"Brother Ji stepped back and watched me force it out."
As he spoke, the Trident Neptune Halberd was already in his hand, and Liu Yun's arms swept across the afterimage, wielding the Trident and slashing towards the lake.
A huge force of 160,000 catties burst out from the tip of the halberd, hiding the mystery of reincarnation.
The surface of the lake, which was larger than the Three Moon Palace, shook suddenly, as if a big hand was stirring in the middle of the lake, and the water waves began to flow in a spiral shape, turning faster and faster, and a "water dragon" actually rose in the middle of the lake.
"Smack!"
The big gecko was spun out, grabbed the rock wall at the upper end of the cave, stretched out his head and shrunk his head, and watched Liu Yun and Ji Yang vigilantly.
It is huge, and with only a triangular head, it can withstand Liu Yun and Ji Yang.
"He wants to ask you for something." Ji Yang pointed at Liu Yun and said to the big gecko.
To Liu Yun's surprise, the gecko seemed to understand, turned his head to Liu Yun, and looked cautious.
"I want Don Lao Zu's Ascending Dragon Emperor Merit." Liu Yun spread his hands and said very simply.
"Hiss"
Who wants the big gecko to hissed like a snake, wag its big tail and stick out its front paws.
"It says yes. But you have to give it benefits first. Ji Yang said.
Liu Yun glanced at Ji Bu strangely: "How do you know?" Don't sue me, in addition to playing with human corpses, you also like to play with animal corpses. ”
Ji Bu rolled his eyes and said coldly: "The strange birds and beasts above the heavenly grade already understand human language, have thoughts, and can communicate with people. When I was seven years old, I began to collect corpses, traveled north and south, traveled to countless places, and came into contact with many natural beasts, so I was naturally able to understand their minds. ”
"But I've heard that most of the Heavenly Beasts have stayed away from the Tianque Continent."
"You've just heard. Take this big gecko as an example, it must be that the ancestor of the Tang clan was reluctant to displace his mount, so he secretly built this underground palace and let it hide here, while guarding the Qiyue Ancestral Temple. ”
"Mount" Thinking about the mural story he had seen earlier, Liu Yun nodded: "Ten are ** so." ”
Tang Laozu left this big gecko in the Qi Temple Underground Palace, and Feng Zhenlei also left the dragon whale to turn into an island outside Pearl Bay, in addition to some unknown reasons, there should also be reasons why they are nostalgic for the mount.
After thinking about it, Liu Yun summoned the goose with a stupid head, and did not pinch his neck and shake it as usual. Since the stupid goose successfully stole the ethereal jade bone and made great achievements, its status in Liu Yun's heart has risen. With such a loyal and clever thief under his hands, Liu Yun will naturally cherish it.
The goose stumbled a few times on the shore of the lake, raised its head, and barked at the giant gecko.
The giant gecko hisses in response.
In this way, a goose and a gecko bargained in the underground palace of Qi Temple.
Liu Yun took a step back and looked at Ji Yang.
Ji Yang stared at the dumb goose and the gecko expressionlessly, he was expressionless because he was born with a dead face, in fact, his eyes still showed a strong interest.
"What do you like to do besides collecting corpses?" Liu Yun asked.
"Curiosity." Jiyang Road.
Curious? Sure enough, a strange person.
Liu Yun said in his heart.
After a while, the goose and the giant gecko fell silent, and seemed to have talked.
The goose spat out a golden pill that smelled of decay.
The gecko hissed, flew out excitedly, as fast as lightning, and in the blink of an eye, it had already returned to its original position with the pill in its hand, and hissed towards Liu Yun.
"It says to let you pass." Jiyang Road.
"Where to go."
"Sit on its back."
Hearing this, Liu Yun glanced at the dumb-headed goose, and the idiot-headed goose nodded silently.
Liu Yun bent his knees, slammed the trident Neptune halberd, jumped high, and landed right on the back of the gecko when he fell.
Without waiting for Liu Yun to make a move, a transparent round bubble was born from under the gecko's thin scales to wrap Liu Yun, and he jumped into the lake.
"Whoa!"
Splashing waves.
As far as Liu Yun's eyes can see, there is a blue lake, this lake is just a large pool dug in the underground palace, and the two walls of the pool are faintly carved with all kinds of patterns and characters.
Because of Thunder Eye, Liu Yun is not good at learning martial arts directly, and needs to watch someone demonstrate or find someone to practice.
As for the natal exercise, since Liu Yun's eyes had problems, he hadn't practiced yet, so he didn't know if he could cultivate directly.
It wasn't long before a cavern appeared at the bottom of the water, just the right size for geckos to enter and exit.
The gecko swung its tail and "swished" into the cave, its eyes like two bright moons, illuminating the cave.
Liu Yun looked around, there was nothing in the cave, there were no imaginary statues, murals, and no exercise stone tablets, and they were bare.
Except for one large mudra.
"Hiss"
The gecko barks at the handprint several times.
Liu Yun realized, he held his breath, ejected, and reached out to press the handprint.
Suddenly, Liu Yun trembled like thunder, and a voice echoed in his ears out of thin air, as if something had been forced into his brain
"The Emperor of Shenglong"
Liu Yun heard the voice speak
This skill is created by the king to imitate Zichen, it is really a great rebellion, not to practice this exercise lightly in troubled times, only my Tang royal family can practice, with the king's atmosphere, with a mountain and river country as the furnace, gather the ministers and the people's worship thoughts, into the true qi, supplemented by practice. The details are as follows
"Wow!"
The water splashed, and Liu Yun jumped out of the lake.
The goose rubbed Liu Yun's thigh affectionately.
Liu Yun looked left and right, and the man who called himself Ji Yang was gone.
"Hell yes."
Liu Yun put away the goose, said goodbye to the big gecko in the lake, and then walked out of the underground palace along the road.
When he went to the Qi Temple, Liu Yun saw a note pressed on the Hanyu platform, but Tang Yuzhen's body was missing. Walking forward, Liu Yun picked up the note, and wrote two words on it hastily - farewell. Other than that, nothing was left.
It seems that he took Tang Yuzhen back to Middle-earth.
A corpse collector from Yongjing. Season sheep
While reciting this name silently, Liu Yun recalled the strong men in the Wu Yuan period, and after thinking about it, he didn't come up with a strong man surnamed Ji among them.
It seems that not every weirdo you meet is a celebrity in the history books. That's fine.
Striding out of the Qi Temple, Liu Yun looked at the gradually clearing sky, let go of the water-avoiding golden-eyed beast, turned over and rode on, and went straight to Qijing
Moon Palace, Tang Yuchen wrote on the desk.
Killing Tang Yuzhen and relieving her confidants does not mean that she, the eldest princess, will be at ease from now on. On the contrary, big and small troubles followed, which gave her a headache, and she did not leave the palace gate for a whole day.
Among many matters, the most troublesome thing for her is the selection of the new Qi Jun.
A country cannot be said to be without a king. Although Tang Yuchen's prestige is high, whether it is the people or the government and the opposition, it is far higher than Tang Yuzhen, but she is a woman after all, unless she dares to brave the world's disapproval to create a precedent for women to be kings, she is destined to fail to ascend the throne as a king. Therefore, she urgently needed to find a new Qi Jun to replace Tang Yuzhen.
There are many children of the Qi royal family, but in recent generations, for some reason, there are more women and fewer men, there are a lot of princesses, and the number of descendants is less than ten, most of them are still immature children.
This is also one of the reasons why she has not abolished Tang Yuzhen for a long time.
If Tang Yuzhen is deposed and the new monarch is young, not only will the princes from all walks of life bully him, but the situation in the country will also be difficult to stabilize.
At this moment, the familiar sound of footsteps sounded from outside the palace gate.
