Chapter 20: The Departure of the Heavenly Machine
Xiao Yun's worst fears finally happened.
Tianjizi's departure should have happened half a month later, after he broke through to the drunkard realm, and the plot in the book came to an abrupt end. But now it's half a month ahead of schedule, and the eighth stage of the wine is still the smell of wine has happened!
So what's going to happen next?
Is the plot over today, or will it be over in the first half of a month until I enter the drunkard realm?
At this time, Tianjizi sighed: "I originally wanted to stay a little longer, and wait for you to break through to the drunkard realm before leaving, but now I can't wait." These days, the old ailments in my body are getting worse and worse. ”
Hearing this, Xiao Yun did not have a look of surprise on his face. He had known about Tianjizi's secret illness from the book for a long time.
Tianjizi coughed violently a few times: "I originally wanted to find some herbs to suppress, but I have not been able to find them." While the injury was still not fully affected, I had to leave early to do a few unfinished things. ”
After a pause, he said slowly, "Before leaving, I will give you two things. As he spoke, Tianjizi reached into his arms and slowly took out two things.
One of them was an inconspicuous black flask the size of a child's fist, and the other was a neatly folded black animal skin.
"This Qiankun pot is something I've been carrying with me for 30 years. Tianjizi first handed the black wine pot to Xiao Yun, "I named it the three-petal pot, because the space in this Qiankun pot is divided into three parts, each part has a zhang Xu Fangyuan, which can hold three different war wines. ”
"Before I came, I filled two of them with Daigo wine and drunken immortal wine for your cultivation, and the remaining part can be kept for other purposes in the future. Tianjizi's face became solemn, and he instructed, "You must take care of this Qiankun pot carefully, and it must not fall into the hands of others." ”
Tianjizi's words seemed to have a deep meaning, but Xiao Yun was in a state of confusion at this time, and he didn't understand it.
Xiao Yun seemed to want to excuse himself, but after thinking about it, he still hung the three-petal pot on his waist, nodded and said, "Master, don't worry, I will definitely cherish this Qiankun pot." ”
Tianjizi nodded with satisfaction, handed the black animal skin to Xiao Yun again, and said, "You unfold this animal skin." ”
Xiao Yun was curious, carefully unfolded the animal skin, looked at it fixedly, and blurted out: "This is a map!"
When the skin is unfolded, it is not large, only a square foot, but on it is painted with red paint on the three peaks, although it is only a few brushstrokes, but it is lifelike.
The three peaks are close to each other in a strange fret, but at the base of the middle peak, there is a red dot that is specially accentuated with paint.
"These three mountains are located in the Fuling Mountains of the Ghost Yuan Dynasty in the southern region of Zhennan. Tianjizi pointed to the red dot and said, "This marked red dot is the location of the cave where I have practiced for many years. ”
Xiao Yun frowned and said, "Zhennan Region?"
With the deviation of the plot, Xiao Yun found that more and more unfamiliar concepts began to appear one after another, after the blood-eyed fox and the drunken corpse, and now there are Zhennan Regions and the Ghost Yuan Dynasty, which have not been mentioned in the book.
"The entire world of sake is divided into nine domains. Tianjizi explained with a smile, "The Dachang Dynasty like here belongs to the Eastern Scenic Domain. However, compared to the Zhennan Domain, the Dongjing Domain can be said to be pitifully small, and the Ghost Yuan Dynasty is the largest dynasty in the Zhennan Domain, with an area at least five times that of the Dachang Dynasty. ”
Xiao Yun gasped.
He had never heard of this knowledge, so how big would the whole world of wine be in the world?
At the same time, Xiao Yun secretly complained in his heart, he had a strange feeling, as if there was a strange force, which was slowly forcibly integrating him into this wine world that was still unfamiliar to him.
"In this cave, there is my lifelong knowledge of the way of wine. These insights are too advanced for you to be of much use right now. Tianjizi looked at Xiao Yun and said slowly, "But when you break through to the Innate Wine Dao in the future, if you encounter unsolvable problems, you might as well go and find this cave mansion, the contents will be of great help to you." ”
"Thank you, Master. Xiao Yun subconsciously responded.
At this moment, Xiao Yun couldn't help but be a little moved.
For Tianjizi, this black Qiankun pot and the animal skin map with his lifelong experience hidden are undoubtedly his most precious things, and now they are all handed over to him! He is so considerate and cared for himself, even compared with his parents, I am afraid that it is not too much.
"There's one more thing," Tianjizi muttered, seemingly a little unspeakable.
Xiao Yun immediately said, "Master, please speak." ”
"This matter is about your senior brother Huo Jie. Tianjizi sighed, "Huo Jie is arrogant, but narrow-minded, I wanted to use you to hone his heart, but I didn't expect it to backfire." Now that these things have happened, he and you are already on the same page, and if you meet in the future, the consequences may be unpredictable. ”
Xiao Yun was silent.
He knew that Tianjizi wanted to say "cannibalism", but he couldn't bear to change his words to "unpredictable".
"Your talent far surpasses Huo Jie, with your cultivation speed, within two years, Huo Jie will no longer be your opponent. Tianjizi sighed, "If you really meet in the future, and he provokes you again, I hope you can spare him once." After a pause, he added, "But if Huo Jie doesn't give up afterwards and still wants to be unfavorable to you, then you can do it yourself then." ”
Xiao Yun sighed in his heart. He can understand Tianjizi's complicated feelings very well.
"Master, don't worry, I will try to avoid Senior Brother Huo. Xiao Yun sighed.
A relieved smile appeared on Tianjizi's face, as if he breathed a sigh of relief: "I have left a letter in the cave mansion, and it will not be long before Huo Jie finds out, and then he will leave here and return to the capital." ”
He sighed again, looked far away, and said reminiscingly: "Huo Jie is actually the son of Shangshu of the Criminal Department of the capital, firstly, his father begged very much, and secondly, his father was very kind to me, so that I got a clue of an important herb, plus for the sake of Huo Jie's outstanding physique, so I accepted Huo Jie as a personal apprentice." It's been two years now, and Huo Jie has done his best to serve me."
He paused, looked at Xiao Yun again, and instructed: "In the next two years, if you have to enter the capital, then you must be very careful not to let Huo Jie find out your whereabouts. Then he smiled and said: "But with Huo Jie's temperament, after returning to the capital, he will definitely try his best to camp in the court." With your current status, it will be difficult to meet him for a while. ”
Xiao Yun nodded silently.
His face was pale, because there was no mention of Huo Jie's detailed background in the book.
"Alright, that's all I have to say, and it's time for me to go. Tianjizi looked at Xiao Yun kindly, stretched out his hand and stroked the top of Xiao Yun's head softly a few times, "From today on, you can do it yourself." ”
After saying that, he slowly rose into the air, turned around, and quickly flew into the distance, and soon became a small dot in the sky.
Xiao Yun raised his head and looked in the direction where Tianjizi flew, motionless.
After a long time, he suddenly knelt down lightly on the gravel-covered ground, and according to the etiquette in this world, he respectfully bowed to the distant Tianjizi three times.
Since coming to this wine world, Xiao Yun has been thinking about returning to reality to reunite with his parents all the time. Apprentice to Tianjizi and practice hard, all in order to survive until three months later, after breaking through to the drunkard realm, the plot will be terminated. But at this time, he suddenly found that Tianjizi's departure, a kind of reluctance and parting sentimentality suddenly spread irrepressibly in his heart.
Perhaps after meeting Tianjizi, in the face of Tianjizi's love and care, he has already subconsciously regarded Tianjizi as his parents who he misses all the time but is in the real world.
Xiao Yun slowly stood up.
At this moment, Xiao Yun was suddenly stunned.
He suddenly felt a sudden darkness around him, and then a neon-like colored light suddenly appeared on the ground in front of him, as if projected from the sky behind him.
"This is?" Xiao Yun's eyes widened suddenly, his body shook suddenly, and Huo Di turned his head and looked upward.
At this time, I saw that in the sky above the entire Gobi, a huge and incomparably colorful vortex appeared at some point. This whirlpool is so large, thousands of feet wide, slowly rotating endlessly, reflecting the entire vast Gobi and the entire sky into a piece of color, which is extremely spectacular.
Then the wind began to rage, and for a while gravel flew and yellow sand flew, and Xiao Yun's clothes, which were still far away from the whirlpool, hunted backwards, and he could hardly open his eyes.
Just as the wind became more and more violent, from the center of the colored vortex, a white light several feet square suddenly fell straight to the ground.
From a distance, it was as if a slender white pillar had suddenly appeared between heaven and earth.
"This is the space-time tunnel!" Xiao Yun was stunned at first, then he jumped up violently and ran down the hill in a frenzied manner.
