206 Empty roar
The roar was screaming and piercing the ear drums, even though it was thousands of miles away, but it was also unabated. In the midst of the beast's roar, there was a bell. The length of the bell is orderly, and although the roar is like thunder, it can't hide the jingle of the bell.
Bai Shaoqing's face changed, and even Qin Yue's expression suddenly straightened up, and the two of them said at the same time: "The goods are here." ”
Cheng Jun was stunned, the screaming sound of this beast was also familiar, carefully recognized, shook his head, and said: "Why does it sound like an empty roar? Presumably I didn't hear it really, it was a demon beast of the Kunlun Dao system, and there should be no one in the local area." ”
Qin Yue glanced at Cheng Jun and was slightly surprised, Bai Shaoqing said, "Senior Brother Cheng actually knows about the empty roar? Yes, this is the second time I have heard the cry of this evil beast." It was this beast who came today. ”
Cheng Jun was surprised: "There is such a different species ...... in the local area."
After saying a word, I already knew that it was wrong, and a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in my mind, and I thought of a possibility-
Monsters cross the border!
There are demon beasts coming from the Kunlun Realm!
Is it possible?
Not to mention the deep-rooted cognition in the previous life, that is, in this life, he saw with his own eyes the sword of the broken void of the Boye Daoist, and even the space was distorted, how complete the seal was, at this time, the Dao Palace did not take the initiative to let go of the seal, could it be that there would also be demon beasts crossing the border?
Immediately after, he thought of the unusual aura in the Jiufang Valley, the exaggerated defense of the villages in the valley, the inheritance of Kunlun's Taoism from the pavilions of Jiuyan Mountain, and the Ziyang Jilan seeds blown by the wind......
Could it be that the seals of the two realms of Jiuyan Mountain have long been cracked?
Qin Yue laughed and said, "Senior Brother Cheng, you came by coincidence. On the first day of Jiuyan Mountain, you can see our special scenery. Let's go and see it together. Although you are already from Jiuyan Mountain, only after seeing that scene can you know what we are doing. ”
Cheng Jun smiled, the demon beast crossed the line, it was he who relied on his various knowledge, firstly, it was not necessarily right, and secondly, an ordinary foundation-building monk should not be able to guess it, so he didn't say much, hugged his fists and said: "There are two senior brothers." ”
As he was talking, he only heard a beast roar on the mountain, and a thunderbolt flew through the sky, and in the blink of an eye, it was Fu Zhiyu, who was dressed all over, riding a thunder leopard to the front. When she saw the three of them, she pointed her spear and shouted angrily, "What are you guys doing? Senior Brother Bai should be enough, right? If there is anything wrong with the Nine Directions Valley, we will die together without a place to be buried. ”
Bai Shaoqing's face turned red. Qin Yue arched his hand and said, "I'm waiting for it today." In other words, he should make amends to all his fellow disciples and brothers. Now that the enemy is present, let's step forward first. As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and summoned his magic weapon.
Only then did Cheng Jun see clearly that the magic weapon that Qin Yue flew was a round chess piece.
Bai Shaoqing rose up with his sword, and Cheng Jun naturally followed them on the flying sword, Fu Zhiyu was stunned, pointed at Cheng Jun and said, "Cheng Jiangge is also going?
Cheng Jun was surprised, Qin Yue said: "Senior Brother Cheng has not guarded the Sword Pavilion yet, nor has the Qilin Pavilion explained the duties of the Sword Pavilion, and many things are not known yet, so he cannot take on the responsibility of staying behind." Now he will fight side by side with us first. It's not too late to do the responsibility of the Sword Pavilion in the future. ”
Fu Zhiyu nodded and said, "That's fine." In this case, I have no choice but to kill them with all my might. But an empty roar, it doesn't hurt. ”
The four of them descended the mountain together at great speed. Four rays of light streaked across the night sky and headed straight for the Nine Directions Valley.
Halfway through, Qin Yue sent a message to Bai Shaoqing: "You go and explain to Senior Brother Cheng the reason for our trip." ”
Bai Shaoqing pursed his lips and replied: "This kind of thing is usually explained by you." ”
Qin Yue rolled his eyes and said, "He's your junior brother, isn't he?" Do you still want to be a senior brother?"
Bai Shaoqing knew that he was giving himself a chance to truly reconcile with Cheng Jun, although he was very proud, but he was not a stubborn person, his face was slightly red, but he still made up his mind, the sword light turned around, approached Cheng Jun, and said softly: "Senior Brother Cheng?"
Cheng Jun was not short of etiquette, and said with a smile: "Yes." Why did Senior Brother Bai teach me?"
Seeing that he was so upright, Bai Shaoqing saved a lot of embarrassing prefaces, and said, "Senior Brother Cheng, do you know where we are going?"
Cheng Jun said: "I just heard the roar of the demon beast, but there is an invasion of the demon beast?"
Bai Shaoqing nodded and said, "That's right." But do you know where that monster came from?"
Cheng Jun deliberately said: "From the Western Wasteland?"
Bai Shaoqing shook his head and said, "The west is remote, except for the Jiufang Valley, there is no water source within three thousand miles. Not to mention demon beasts, even wild beasts are starving to death. The beast came from across the mountain. ”
Cheng Jun's eyes jumped, and he said: "That's so!" said in his heart: Sure enough!
Bai Shaoqing said: "Since the Sword Ancestor taught you, can I show you the origin of Jiuyan Mountain?"
Cheng Jun nodded and said, "I already know about it." ”
Bai Shaoqing said: "Well, then I will also spend less time on lips and tongues." As the gateway between the two worlds of Kunshan, Jiuyan Mountain was actually not tightly closed more than a thousand years ago. ”
Cheng Jun was taken aback and said, "Has it been so long?"
Bai Shaoqing said: "According to the chronicle of Jiuyan Mountain, as early as 1,600 years ago, Jiuyan Mountain discovered that the demon beast had crossed the boundary. At that time, those who crossed the realm could not be said to be demon beasts, at most they were alien beasts in the Kunlun realm, and they couldn't even reach the Dao entry period. But it's a different species over there. At that time, Jiuyan Mountain reported to the Shangqing Palace. The reply of the Shangqing Palace was that except for Jiuyan Mountain, no one was allowed to enter the Jiuyan Mountain for a hundred miles, which was the rule set by the old man of the Dao Palace, and others could not do anything. Therefore, the troubles of Jiuyan Mountain must be resolved within Jiuyan Mountain. Speaking of this, a cold light flashed in Bai Shaoqing's eyes, and he said word by word: "If Jiuyan Mountain can't resist, once the door is opened, there will be no Jiuyan Mountain in the world." ”
Cheng Jun's eyes jumped, this decision was quite decisive, it could be regarded as pushing everyone in Jiuyan Mountain to a desperate situation, but it was also in line with the Shangqing Palace's style of not treating others as people, and said: "Is that a solution?"
Bai Shaoqing said: "If it doesn't work, it has to work." At that time, it was nothing, it was just a few evil animals, and everyone reached out and solved it. No other xenospecies were found for decades after that, so I didn't care. Knowing that decades later, another demon beast crossed the line, and finally aroused vigilance. ”
Cheng Jun said: "Could it be that the level of demon beasts is getting higher and higher?"
Bai Shaoqing said: "That's right. At first, it was just a wild species, and then there were demon beasts, and then there were all kinds of high-level demon beasts. Now it has become a small-scale beast tide. And the seizures are becoming more and more frequent, once in the past few decades, and then more than ten years later. In the next few years, it will come, and now there will be a year and a half of demon beasts crossing the border. Each and every one of us had to be determined to go to the challenge and face it. We have also developed from a non-existent sect to a fighting sect that is vigilant all the time and fights on the front line. ”
He showed a sneer, as if mocking, and said, "Of course, although the Shangqing Palace does not send people, there is always a lot of support for resources and wealth, and people outside don't understand us, only how we are happy." In fact, people don't know that we are always ready to die in battle. I'm afraid that only when all of them die in battle and the Kunlun realm demon beasts pour in, will our mission be known. ”
Cheng Jun secretly said in his heart: It's a pity, even if you all die in battle, you will not be known by outsiders. At least in my previous life, I only heard people talk about how tragic the battle for unification was, and the fall of the sect was commonplace, and no one ever mentioned how Jiuyan Mountain fought in this thousand years. I remember just shouting in the air, at least equivalent to a monk who turns qi into essence. ”
There are no monks above the foundation building period in Jiuyan Mountain, and even if there are only nine foundation building monks. Even if they are all very human and have the help of the treasures of the Town Pavilion, but their cultivation and number are so inferior, how can they have been stubbornly resisting for more than a thousand years?
Bai Shaoqing said: "Yes, I couldn't resist it, but fortunately, Jiuyan Mountain, Jiufang Valley, is a treasure of feng shui." In the Nine Directions Valley, the cultivation of any beast that came from the Kunlun Realm would be suppressed. The highest is not the foundation building period, and those demon beasts in the initiation period are directly beaten back to the prototype of the beast, so there is no need to worry. And the demon beasts that can pass at one time are no more than three or two, and the rest of the little beasts, not to mention us, even the villages in the Nine Directions Valley can resist one or two. ”
Cheng Jun said: "No wonder I came to the foot of Jiuyan Mountain and saw the fortress built in the village, which was originally to resist the attack of the beast tide. And a few of the little friars, did you put them there to help the villagers defend against the monsters?"
Bai Shaoqing said: "Those are the descendants of our Jiuyan Mountain. All of our descendants are identified by their imprints. All orphans under the age of 15 who have lost their lives and inherited the status of re-disciples will be brought here to be raised, and when they reach a certain age, they will be sent back to the Central Plains. First, it will not cut off the first line of the disciples, and secondly, it will also help the villagers resist the tide of beasts. Of course, if they can directly go to the Nine Pavilion and become the people of the Nine Wild Goose Mountain Gate, it will naturally be a good thing. But this kind of thing is too rare, and for hundreds of years, only Senior Sister Lu Dange Lu came from that village. She was very lucky, in the years she lived in the Nine Directions Valley, she had never encountered a beast tide once. ”
Cheng Jun nodded, no wonder Lu Lingxuan was so ignorant of the world, it turned out that she grew up in the west and had not joined the WTO. It's a pity that Cheng Zheng was over fifteen years old at the time, otherwise he would not have had to come forward by himself if he was protected by Jiuyan Mountain. After thinking about it, he asked again, "Since there are beasts crossing the border, can the Kunlun monks come over?"
Bai Shaoqing said: "This ...... I haven't seen it for more than a thousand years, and I think that people are not allowed to approach Jiuyan Mountain in Lingshan Daotong, and there are the same regulations there. ”
Cheng Jun asked, "My Sword Pavilion is generally left behind in Jiuyan Mountain, what is the reason?"
Bai Shaoqing said: "This ...... I only know that the Sword Pavilion is the last line of defense of Jiuyan Mountain, and it seems that the Sword Pavilion can seal Jiuyan Mountain twice, so even if we die, the Sword Pavilion will not be able to take a step out of the Thunder Pool. But how exactly ......"
Qin Yue said beside him: "Cheng Jiange, don't ask, Bai Wanxiang doesn't know." The responsibilities of the Sword Pavilion will be explained to you in detail after you are in the position in the future. Fu Rakshasa, in the period when I left, did you write down the time when the beast tide occurred? ”
Fu Zhiyu didn't make a sound, and casually threw a jade slip over.
Qin Yue took the jade slip, swept his senses, moved his eyebrows slightly, pursed his lips, pinched his fingers, and said in a low voice: "It's getting closer and closer." It's coming, it's coming soon......"
Bai Shaoqing was stunned and said, "What?"
Qin Yue's brows immediately relaxed, he smiled, and said, "I said I'm about to see those beasts." Look, isn't that the Nine Directions Valley?"
Follow his fingers, in the night, only listen to the neighing of beasts!
