Chapter 20 The Flood Reigns
In the center of the inner city, five peaks are clustered like lotus flowers on a lonely peak. The mountain peak looks like a pillar from afar, and it is called **Tianzhu Peak. There is another columnar rock on the top of Tianzhu Peak that goes straight into the sky, I don't know how high it is, and the name is "Tianhang". At this time, on the side of the sky, a mat is being spread, and a small table is on the table, and there is a game of chess. The national mourning hand holds a son and will not fall. Chi Lixue took a sip from her teacup. After pondering for a long time, the national mourning finally came to fruition. Chi Liexue's eyelids raised slightly: "It's decided?" Guo Yan nodded: "After the Pan River, the remnants of the Seven Killings flowed all over the country and were suppressed. I'm really afraid that the Seven Kills and One Pulse will be annihilated. Chi Liexue put down the teacup and asked, "When are you leaving?" Oh, it's your turn!"
The summit of the five-petal peak is a plain, and the Tianzhu Peak rises from the middle. Under Tianzhu Peak, there is also a mat, and there is also a small table on the seat, but it is not a remnant chess, but a sand table model of the inner city. The sand table was shining with blue, red, white, and mysterious points of light, some of which were particularly bright. Dumu Yiqiu, who was sitting on one side, was blowing his beard and staring at the old man Konoha who was sitting on the other side smoking a cigarette pouch. The silver-haired Moonlight Mother-in-law was standing at the mountain gate with her body bent, as if she was waiting for someone. The three of them didn't know whether they were intentional or not, and their position was exactly in a triangle. In the middle of the triangle, Nangong Shuibin, who was captured by the old man of Konoha, and Nangong Fengri, who was captured by the whirlwind when he entered the inner city, sat cross-legged and stared at each other with big eyes.
Footsteps sounded, and a man climbed the stairs. The dark yang robe had already been put away, revealing the water blue robe he liked, and the smile on the corner of his mouth rippled when he saw the moonlight mother-in-law at the gate of the mountain. "Mother-in-law-" She snorted coquettishly, and threw herself into the arms of Moonlight Mother-in-law, and spoiled like a child. "Good boy. Granny Moonlight smiled and stroked the hair of the girl in her arms, and led her into the mountain gate.
Old Man Konoha and Duki Yiqiu immediately stopped arguing. The old man of Konoha smiled: "The girl is here, let grandpa see!" "Go! go!" Dumu Yiqiu stepped him aside, "Don't look at your virtue, what should you do if you scare the child!" Shui Huo giggled and came out of the arms of the moonlight mother-in-law: "Why are you still fighting like this." "Where's Auntie?" "The city lord is up there," Granny Moonlight pointed to Tianzhu Peak, "playing chess and watching the play." "What's so nice," Shui Huo wrinkled his little nose and walked to the side to look at the sand table, "It makes my eyes dazzled." The old man kowtowed his cigarette stick and said, "The city lord can naturally see it more clearly than here." By the way, how is that kid of Cold Wind doing?"
"It's okay," Shui Huo poured himself a cup of tea and held it in his hand, "I also brought my daughter-in-law back this time." "Yo--this kid has a lot of skills," the old man Konoha nodded with satisfaction, "Then what about you, Shui Huo girl, did you bring your son-in-law back this time?" "Cough-cough-" Shui Huo, who was drinking tea, almost choked, and his face turned red, "How can there be!" "If there is, just say it, what a shame!" Moonlight Mother-in-law laughed, and her originally kind face looked so treacherous at this time. Dumu Yiqiu also smiled, waiting for the water and fire to announce the good news. "I still have to leave beforehand!" the water and fire couldn't parry, and fled. Moonlight's mother-in-law's voice came from behind: "Girl, remember to go to Taohualing! Mother-in-law has prepared good things for you there!"
The figure of water and fire slowly disappeared into the sky. Dumu Yiqiu said: "Okay. Let's get to work!" the other two old men nodded and shot together. The white jade crescent wheel in the hands of the moonlight mother-in-law, the sycamore wooden stick in the hand of Dumu Yiqiu, and the cigarette pouch in the hands of the old man Konoha emitted white, blue, and black lights at the same time, intertwined into a net, surrounding the Nangong brothers. Nangong Fengri and Nangong Waterfront only felt tiredness, and they became drowsy and couldn't wake up after a while. Seeing that the two of them were asleep, the three old men put away the magic weapons in their hands and walked to the side to sit down cross-legged. Dumu Yiqiu picked up the teapot and poured the tea from the pot on the sand table model.
Suddenly, the flood was raging.
Yusugi walked on a field in a daze. The wind blowing from the inner city blew everyone to pieces, and Yusugi landed on the edge of a cliff alone. It took him a day, killing five sneak attackers halfway through, before he came down from the cliff. In fact, the time of day is only his estimate, because the sky is always gray, and the surrounding environment is constantly changing. He clearly remembered that when he climbed the cliff wall and looked down, he was still hanging in the air, but he stepped on the ground in the next step. When I looked up again, there was no cliff, and it was clearly a big tree in front of me.
Suddenly an exclamation sounded, and Yushan hurriedly looked up, and a big man not far away was being sucked into a leaf. He stopped suddenly, and with a flower in front of him and a soft foot, he fell into the water. The water is filled with huge bubbles that glow brilliantly. Yushan was so stunned that he forgot that he was in the water, and he was about to reach out and touch the bubbles. "Can't touch it!" Yusugi heard a woman's voice, and before he could react, he was pulled aside. Then, with a "boom", the two bubbles collided together where he had just been, and exploded. Blood stumps filled the waters.
"It's ......," Yusugi was stunned. "It's no ordinary bubble, anyone who touches it will be sucked in. That's how it happens when they collide. The woman's voice sounded beside her. Yushan couldn't help but take a deep breath, and suddenly remembered that it was in the water, and he was busy holding his breath, dancing and trying to float. "Don't be so exaggerated!" the woman's voice sounded again, with some teasing. Only then did Yusugi realize that there was no discomfort when he inhaled just now, just like he was on the ground. And, someone is talking here?
He turned, and behind him stood a quiet woman, presumably the one who had just pulled herself away. Seeing his puzzled face, the woman smiled lightly and said: "Little woman is in the city, I don't know my name?" Yushan hurriedly hugged her fists and said: "In Xia Yushan." Thank you for the girl's help. Allure said: "I know that Brother Yu must have doubts in his heart. However, this is not a place to stay for a long time, so please come with me. Hasugi fixed his head and nodded.
At that moment, Allure should lead the way, carefully walking through the bubble gap, but suddenly ignoring the bubble and passing straight through. Yushan followed step by step, not daring to be negligent. Allure seemed to sense his nervousness and said, "Brother Yu doesn't need to be so nervous. In fact, there are traces everywhere here, and Brother Yu will get used to it in the future. Suddenly, the topic changed: "Brother Yu, do you know that it is the most holy year now?" Yu Shan was still struggling with what it meant to "get used to it in the future", and he didn't want to answer: "The most holy? That was the name of the era hundreds of years ago." It is now the seventh year of the Great Yuan. Allure was stunned: "How many hundred years? "What, senior...... Have you been here for a long time?" Hasugi asked cautiously. "Seniors?" Allure's voice was a little lonely, "The youngest junior in the five doors back then has now become a senior?
"Senior, what is Shangwumen?" Seeing her lonely expression, Yushan carefully changed the topic. This trick seems to be effective, and Allure slightly put away the meaning of loneliness, and said: "The so-called 'Shangwumen' refers to the Xiliu Camp, Tiance Mansion, Taoyuan Paradise, Shushan Zhengzong, and Abbot Zen Forest, which represent the words of the five families of soldiers, Confucianism, witches, Taoism, and interpretation. It has a high reputation in the rivers and lakes, and is also inextricably linked with the court. I'm here because of the spy on Chixue by the Shangwumen back then. But who knows...... It's here. Allure stopped, leaning slightly sideways. Yushan saw that it was a crystal palace, and there seemed to be a woman in it, who looked very pretty. "Her name is Hua Shang, and she came at least fifty years before you. Allure said lightly.
"Yusugi has arrived at Crystal Lake?" Chi Lixue held a hand and spoke casually. "Senior Aunt, Senior Brother Yushan also saw Allure. The reply was Bi Shijing, who hadn't shown up for a long time. "Got it," the red snow fell, "and probe." Bi Shijing responded, and climbed up along the sky, very agile. "These two boys, you have to climb up. Do you think you can climb to the top?" "Then it's up to them to come out," Chi Lixue turned her head to stare in the direction of the crystal lake, "some people, it's time to come out too." The chess pieces in the hands of the national mourners fell, and the sound became louder. It seems to be complaining about the distraction of Red Snow.
Fate fell from heaven, and no one understands this sentence better than the current ghost face. Because he had just been knocked to the ground by "fate", and he hadn't had time to get up yet. Water and fire are also at a loss. Originally, she didn't fly this way, but the ghost landed here and smashed on the ghost. "Is this comfortable?" Seeing the water and fire, he didn't know where he was, but he didn't stand up, and the ghost face spoke depressedly. "Ahh looked around, but was stunned. "Really," Ghost Face muttered as he got up, "It's called Peach Blossom Ridge, but there isn't half a peach blossom." I still want to get a few peaches to eat!" Seeing that Shui Huo was still stunned, he patted her on the shoulder: "Don't look at it." No matter how much you look at it, it's all stones, and you can't bloom peach blossoms. Shui Huo ignored him, "Peach Blossom Ridge, Peach Blossom Ridge." Really...... Is it predestined!" Her mind rolled, and the ghost face pulled her towards the mountain.
The peak of the Pillar of Heaven. Chi Liexue put down the chess pieces and said with a smile: "I still haven't dodged." "That's," Guo Yan smiled and said, "You couldn't win me back then, and you can't win me now!" Chi Liexue watched him finish walking, and picked up a son: "That's not necessarily!"
When the flood came, Luo Huqiu was walking in a valley with Liu Ling and Liu Ruo, who met by chance on the middle of the road. The flood came suddenly, and the valley under the feet of the three of them suddenly turned into a cliff, and they were hanging halfway up the mountain. "What the hell is this place!" Liu Ruo, who was barely standing on a rock, gritted his teeth and said, "First a strange wind blew people dizzy, and now there is a flood again." Isn't it time for an earthquake next!" Liu Ling and Luo Huqiu were huddled on a concave mountain wall not far away. Hearing Liu Ruo's complaint, Liu Ling smiled and said, "If you come, you will be safe." Fortunately, we didn't fall straight down. Luo Huqiu just laughed, causing Liu Ruo to roll his eyes.
Liu Ruo's crow's beak really worked, and it really happened. It's just that the victims are the cold wind and the crane. I don't know how the two of them would feel if they heard Liu Ruo's words. The earth was instantly torn apart by the turbulent water, and the cold wind and the crane were caught off guard and fell straight down. The cracks were hidden in the blink of an eye by the mud and sand carried by the water. Everything happened so fast that Qiu Xue and Maizuru, who were so close at hand, didn't have time to react before they were swept away by the flood.
Listening to the roar of the flood washing over the earth, the face of the pain dragon changed, and Luo Huting, who grabbed Luo Huting beside him, turned around and ran. But as soon as I ran two steps, I felt empty under my feet. When I looked down, the two were hanging over the rough water. The Pain Dragon only had time to hug Luo Huting tightly before falling into the water. The moment they entered the water, both of them couldn't help but think of that familiar scene.
The water was very fast, and the pain dragon firmly hugged Luo Huting, drifting all the way with the turbulent current, and it didn't take long to reach the shore. The Pain Dragon, who was desperately swimming ashore, looked at the person in his arms and immediately smiled bitterly. She had fallen asleep!The Pain Dragon shook his head helplessly, picked her up, and walked to a cave not far away.
The sudden flood caught everyone off guard. Suo Yinyu was trapped on a stone pillar, Yue and Wu sat on a big tree and looked at each other and smiled bitterly, and Tie Jing looked at the water that had almost poured into the cave, secretly rejoicing in his good luck. Of course, there are people who are luckier. For example, Yushan, when the flood came, he was under the crystal lake, in the crystal palace, listening to the flood rumbling by, talking about life with beautiful women, and not thinking about it; for example, the ghost face, when the flood came, he was walking in the thick fog with water and fire, and he only faintly heard the sound of water in his ears; for example, Qin'er, when the flood came, she was in the pavilion on the mountainside on the side of the five-petal peak. The stone tablet outside the pavilion is engraved with the word "falling red", and there is a painting hanging in the pavilion, in which the person in the painting is graceful and dusty, and Qin'er is somewhat similar, but there is a shadow of water and fire in the eyebrows and eyes. "Was it here that you realized the Tao and created the Red Pulse?" Qin'er muttered to herself, looking at the person in the painting stupidly.
Outside the pavilion, it suddenly began to rain.
