307 self-confidence
When Meng Xiuyuan woke up again, he saw darkness in front of him, and it was endless.
In the surrounding space, there seems to be no glimmer of light, and it is still not enough to describe it if you can't see your fingers.
If it weren't for Meng Xiuyuan tearing off a corner of his clothes and burning it with his fingers, he could see a precious flame, he even had some doubts about whether there was something wrong with his eyes.
In the blink of an eye, the flame was extinguished. Meng Xiuyuan was about to tear off a few more pieces of fabric and light them to explore the surrounding environment, but suddenly saw a figure appear in the dark void in front of him, emitting a glimmer of light from his body.
"Meng Xiuyuan ......"
A soft call came, and Meng Xiuyuan followed the sound to look up, and couldn't help but stagnate.
The woman in front of her is about 20 years old, dressed as a Miao person, with a delicate face and a gentle and dignified temperament, which is unforgettable at first sight.
What's more, this woman has an indescribable momentum on her body, as warm as the sun and as benevolent and heavy as the earth in Meng Xiuyuan's primordial sense.
Even if she didn't show the slightest means at the moment, Meng Xiuyuan was still shocked in her heart, vaguely seeing her half-human and half-god nature, and confirming her identity.
"Just now, in order to save a few companions, I was forced to offend the holy body of my predecessors, please forgive me.
The seniors saved their lives, Meng Xiuyuan thanked them for a few of them......"
As he spoke, Meng Xiuyuan bowed and saluted Lin Qing'er, the witch queen in front of him.
Although several generations have passed and many years have passed, Meng Xiuyuan can still remember the general story of the fairy sword world.
At this moment, it should be ten years before the beginning of the plot, the Moon Worship Sect Master controlled the Water Demon Beast to set off a monstrous flood, and Lin Qing'er, the Southern Zhao Witch Queen, died with the Water Demon Beast in order to save the people of the world.
For this descendant of Nuwa, who is willing to sacrifice himself and save the world, Meng Xiuyuan has a lot of respect in his heart. Although it is difficult to say much because of the child's body at this moment, this worship is sincere.
The witch queen Lin Qing'er saw that Meng Xiuyuan, an eight or nine-year-old child, could still change without being surprised after this magical change, and couldn't help nodding secretly.
She stared at Meng Xiuyuan for a long time before she slowly said softly:
"You are really not an ordinary person, you are already so good at a young age, no wonder you will have such a heavenly ability in the future, and you can use your strength to suppress the ancient demonic beasts.
Nanzhao can have your help, it is really Nuwa Niangniang's blessing......"
At this point, before Meng Xiuyuan could speak, the witch queen Lin Qing'er waved the snake staff in her hand again and nodded towards Meng Xiuyuan's forehead unhurriedly.
Meng Xiuyuan knew that this witch queen was kind-natured, and it was impossible to hurt him for no reason, and he didn't perceive the slightest danger warning in his primordial spirit, so he forcibly suppressed his instinct to dodge and wait to see what Lin Qing'er's intentions were.
Sure enough, the moment the snake staff gently touched the center of Meng Xiuyuan's eyebrows, he only felt that his eyes lit up, and he saw that in this originally dark and boundless space, there were suddenly five more faint lights of purple, green, blue, red, and yellow, which slowly seeped into the depths of his sea of consciousness from the center of his eyebrows.
"I only have a few remnants left at the moment, and I can't help you much.
These five spirit spells are counted as my last bit of mind.
Although not everyone has the talent to chant mantras and cast spells, all cultivation in this world is inseparable from the five spiritual aura.
Even if you can't practice this spell, it will definitely be of some use.
It's a pity that time is limited, and it's up to you to get a few points......"
Lin Qing'er's voice sounded gentle and soothing, but in Meng Xiuyuan's sea of knowledge, there was a turbulent sea at the moment.
The five-colored aura contains a huge amount of information, all of which are related to the five spirit spells, and the content is mysterious and profound. At this moment, it was poured into Meng Xiuyuan's mind in one go, which was really difficult for a strong man.
If it weren't for Meng Xiuyuan's previous life, he had sung the "Shangqing Huangting Exterior Scene Sutra" for many years, and the Yuan Shen had been tempered and his soul was solid and strong, I am afraid that he would not be able to fully accept this precious gift.
In a few breaths, those five spiritual rays completely penetrated into Meng Xiuyuan's eyebrows, as if snow met the warm sun, and they all quickly turned into invisible flowing water in his sea of consciousness, merging with his divine soul.
When Meng Xiuyuan roughly stabilized his spirit and opened his eyes again, he saw that Lin Qing'er's figure in front of him had dimmed a little, as if it would dissipate in an instant, merging with this boundless darkness.
Obviously, the consumption just now is so great that it can no longer be sustained.
However, the witch queen did not have regrets on her face, but looked at Meng Xiuyuan with a little more joy in her eyes, and opened her mouth and said with a little emotion:
"Meng Shaoxia, Nuwa Niangniang really has a lot of preference for you, I believe you will not live up to this talent.
Take care and we'll see you in the future......"
……
A white light suddenly lit up, and Meng Xiuyuan flashed out from the stone statue of Lin Qing'er, the witch queen.
Scanning around, he was still in the place where he had landed before and did not move, but the seven children were missing around him, but there was a circle of Bai Miao people, who were surrounding him and the stone statue in the middle.
"Gai Luojiao is right, someone really entered the stone statue of Nuwa Niangniang, and she is still a Han boy......"
Seeing Meng Xiuyuan suddenly appear, the Bai Miao warriors present couldn't help but be in an uproar, looking at Meng Xiuyuan's eyes was very complicated.
Among them, the leader was a richly dressed Miao girl, who was only in her early twenties, but her face already had a bit of the solemn demeanor of a superior person, and she immediately took a step forward and said to Meng Xiuyuan:
"Little doll, who are you?
Why are you, a Han Chinese, actually called by Nuwa Niangniang?
Can you tell us why? ”
Meng Xiuyuan knew that this matter was related to the belief of the Bai Miao people and Nuwa, and it was normal for them to be so anxious. Looking at the face of the witch queen Lin Qing'er, he felt that there was no need to cover it up after the matter had come to this point, and immediately responded calmly:
"In Xia Meng Xiuyuan, he was originally a rural orphan around Dali City.
The reason for this encounter is quite a coincidence, and it has to start with this great flood......"
Immediately, Meng Xiuyuan briefly explained how the eight of them were kidnapped by the Black Miao people, how they encountered floods, and how they survived in the torrent by helping the other seven children.
Bai Miao and the others couldn't help but be amazed when they heard this, although they had roughly inquired about the matter from the mouths of the seven children before, but at this moment, they still felt very shocked when they heard Meng Xiuyuan say it in person.
This flood can be called a natural disaster that destroys the country, if it were not for the Bai Miao Holy Aunt who sensed it in advance and notified the patriarch to lead the inside and outside of Dali City to go up the mountain to take refuge, most of them would never have survived it.
Meng Xiuyuan, a doll who was only eight or nine years old, was able to kill the Black Miao spies first, and then protect the lives of seven companions in the flood. Such skills are unimaginable.
However, the young Bai Miao patriarch was quite polite, waved his hand to stop the gossip of the people behind him, and he did not ask about Meng Xiuyuan's roots, but said in a strong and powerful voice:
"Thank you little brother for your frank confession, the reason why Nuwa Niangniang summoned you is because of your benevolence and righteousness of sacrificing your life to save others.
But could you please tell me more about where you went during the time you disappeared......
Of course, if it's inconvenient to talk about it, it doesn't hurt. ”
It is about Nuwa Niangniang, the leader of the Miao people said it more tactfully, but Meng Xiuyuan did not want to let the deeds of Lin Qing'er, the witch queen who sacrificed for the people of Nanzhao, be buried, and immediately said seriously:
"There's nothing wrong with it, I just saw a white light and was led to an extremely dark place.
There, I met a senior dressed as a Hmong ......"
Immediately, Meng Xiuyuan deliberately described the appearance of the witch queen Lin Qing'er in detail, and briefly talked about the process of Lin Qing'er teaching his five spirit spells, and only hid some specific conversations between the two.
Lin Qing'er was the high priest of the Bai Miao clan before marrying the Nanzhao Wu King, and when Meng Xiuyuan said this, naturally many Bai Miao people heard her identity and couldn't help but talk about it again.
The few people in the know looked at the heavy rain in the sky that had gradually stopped, and then looked at the stone statue of the snake girl with exquisite details, but the face could not be seen clearly, and they had a general guess in their hearts, and they couldn't help but kneel down and bow to the stone statue.
At this time, there was only one pretty girl in the crowd with frowning brows, and immediately flashed out, pointed at Meng Xiuyuan and said:
"You're saying so bizarre, who knows if it's true or not.
You said that you are a Han orphan in the countryside outside Dali, so why do you have such a powerful ability out of thin air, even more clever than the warriors of my Bai Miao tribe who have worked hard for decades?
If you want to prove yourself, explain it clearly.
Otherwise, who knows if you are a spy sent by the Lunatic Cult to deliberately build a statue of Nuwa Niangniang and fake a miracle with a spell......"
"Gai Luojiao, shut up, don't be rude to this little brother......"
When the female leader of the Bai clan heard this, she stopped the girl's words as soon as possible. However, in the eyes of the Miao people present looking at Meng Xiuyuan, they couldn't help but have a little more doubt.
After all, as the girl named Ge Luojiao said, Meng Xiuyuan is young and from an ordinary background, and it is a major doubt that this unreasonable fact cannot be explained.
Meng Xiu shook his head when he saw this, and he didn't want to explain any more, even if he wanted to leave. But at this moment, a kind voice was heard from behind the crowd:
"Luo Jiao, don't always think about people in the worst way.
This little brother is not an enemy, he did not lie......"
"Holy Aunt?!" "Holy Aunt, why did your old man come......"
When Bai Miao and the others heard the prestige, their faces couldn't help but change suddenly, and they hurriedly got out of the way, and slowly walked in front of Meng Xiuyuan to greet an old woman wearing a robe and a kind face.
The old woman looked at Meng Xiuyuan for a moment with her slightly cloudy eyes, then nodded again, and said softly to Meng Xiuyuan:
"Little brother, I felt the divine power of Nuwa Niangniang in you.
You must be an unusual character, that's why she cares so much about the witch queen......"
The Holy Aunt has a transcendent status among the Bai Miao clan, and as soon as she said this, the eyes of the Bai Miao people looking at Meng Xiuyuan immediately became very soft and kind. Among them, there are many straight people who directly apologize to Meng Xiuyuan, asking Meng Xiuyuan to forgive them for their rudeness just now.
The patriarch of Bai Miao took a step forward and said earnestly towards Meng Xiuyuan:
"Meng Shaoxia, all the offenses just now are all due to our ignorance, please forgive me.
Since you are a person approved by the witch queen, you are a friend of my Bai Miao clan.
If you need anything in the future, please say it directly, and we will do our best to help. ”
Meng Xiuyuan nodded when he heard this, and smiled at the matriarch in response. Although he didn't think that he would have anything to ask Bai Miao people to help with, he admired the other party's straightforward character.
……
On the same day, Meng Xiuyuan was retained on this mountain peak by Bai Miao on the grounds that the flood had not receded. Although there was a shortage of materials on the mountain, the enthusiastic Bai Miao people still tried their best to entertain him.
Not only did he eat water and food first, but when he stayed overnight, Meng Xiuyuan was invited by the holy aunt to live at her house.
You must know that this mountain peak was originally the hermitage of the Holy Aunt, and there was no other building except for one of her large bamboo houses.
The escape was urgent, and the Bai Miao people were not prepared, even the Bai Miao patriarch had to sleep in the wild with the clansmen.
Meng Xiuyuan was accustomed to the cultivation life in the mountains and wilderness, and he didn't want to accept such generous treatment, but Bai Miao was so kind that he could not resist in the end.
Late at night, Meng Xiuyuan lay on a bamboo bed in the side room, recalling the short and intense day since the crossing, and couldn't help but have thoughts rolling in his heart.
Among them, what made Meng Xiuyuan think about the most was the conversation between Lin Qinger and him in the stone statue.
Obviously, this witch queen should have had contact with Meng Xiuyuan, who had traveled through the "Soul Returning Immortal Dream" for many years, so she would have such a friendly attitude towards Meng Xiuyuan at this moment.
And listening to what he said, the two should have teamed up together to deal with the fierce water monster.
But what made Meng Xiuyuan jealous was that even if the witch queen praised him very highly in the future, the result still did not change.
The witch queen Lin Qing'er still died because of the sealing of the water demonic beast, and the entire Nanzhao Kingdom was still invaded by the flood.
Extrapolating like this, Meng Xiuyuan was a little concerned in his heart, how powerful the water demonic beasts and the mysterious Moon Worship Sect Master that had existed since ancient times were.
For a while, Meng Xiuyuan couldn't help but feel a little pressure in his heart.
But such emotions come and go quickly. Vertical and horizontal III, defeating countless strong enemies, Meng Xiuyuan was no longer the newcomer in the rivers and lakes who faced the two elders of Xuanming on Wudang Mountain back then.
Even if he came to this world of gods and demons, he still had some confidence in himself.
……
After a peaceful night's sleep, Meng Xiuyuan was afraid of disturbing the two masters and apprentices in the next room, Shenggu and Gai Luojiao, so he did not cultivate.
At this moment, as soon as the sky was bright, Meng Xiuyuan was anxious to say goodbye and leave, so as to start his cultivation path in the Immortal Sword World as soon as possible.
It's just that as soon as he got up, he heard a clear voice from outside the small courtyard:
"Holy aunt senior, take the liberty to disturb.
Li Sansi, a person from the Central Plains, has something important to ask for, and implores his seniors to see ......"
Meng Xiuyuan frowned deeply when he heard this, and when he heard the name "Li Sansi", he only felt that there seemed to be something wrong.
