Chapter 621: The Death of the Old Moon, the Strange Red Rope
In the heavenly court, it seems that he can't feel the passage of time at all, Li Daoxuan doesn't know how long he has been gone, at this moment, he finally understands what it means to run a dead horse in Wangshan.
Those fairy palaces seemed to be not far away, but after flying away for a long time, they were still so far away, like a mirage.
Heavenly Court is not a courtyard, but a realm of land, it is said that there are thirty-six heavens and seventy-two immortal palaces, and the scale is so large that even if all the kingdoms in the world are combined, they cannot be compared.
That is, the immortals can soar through the clouds and fog and turn into rainbows, otherwise Li Daoxuan is really worried about whether they will be late when they go to the court in the Lingxiao Treasure Palace.
After flying for a long time, just when the originally nervous little flower god was about to fall asleep, Li Daoxuan finally came to a fairy palace.
The vermilion hall pillars, the mandarin duck lanterns, a round of bright moon in the sky, hanging down thousands of starlight, appear quiet and deep.
Li Daoxuan's eyes showed a different color, as soon as he came to the fairy palace, the scene in front of him suddenly changed, no longer immortal, but starry, bright moon.
It seems to have stepped into another world. The immortals live in a world of their own.
Each fairy palace is equivalent to a country in the nether realm, each with its own style, and the visions are varied, which is amazing. "Suzaku Third Palace—Moon Tower."
Li Daoxuan looked at the plaque and continued to read out the two lines of couplets next to him.
"Be kind, and a lover will eventually become a family; As soon as the red rope is pulled, you can't escape the fate of the third world." His heart moved, this seemed to be the place where the old man lived?
Looking closely at the mandarin duck lantern in front of the door, there is still firelight beating in it, and the mandarin duck is lifelike, and his eyes are slightly turning, looking at Li Daoxuan.
In a trance, he even heard the cry of the mandarin duck, and his heart inexplicably gave birth to feelings of longing, and a series of shadows appeared.
As if he felt the affection in Li Daoxuan's heart, the mandarin duck lantern instantly became brighter, and the red candle burned more vigorously.
Love as fire?
Li Daoxuan noticed this anomaly, he shook his head, no longer looked at the mandarin duck lantern, but walked to the vermilion gate and gently pushed it hard.
The door is slowly opened, not strenuous, and there is no enchantment, and the breeze behind the door hits, and it is a beautiful rockery courtyard.
Li Daoxuan lingered outside the door for a moment, and finally chose to enter the Moon Tower.
It's all here, so that he doesn't even dare to enter the door, compared to the Four Heavenly Kings, Yue Lao's combat power is undoubtedly lower, even if there is anything abnormal, he won't be unable to deal with it.
Persimmon always has to pick a soft pinch, if this is the Lingxiao Treasure Hall or the Taishang Laojun's Tushi Palace, then he may not dare to break in.
Li Daoxuan continued to walk forward, carefully observing his surroundings.
I have to say that the land of the immortal family is really wonderful, just a courtyard, it is extraordinary, far better than the palace on earth.
Strange rocks, strange trees like clouds, there are evergreen embroidery grass for thousands of years, and undefeated flowers all year round.
Even the stone road under his feet is also made of a kind of crystal clear jade, and as soon as the stars and moon shine, a hazy jade smoke will come out, like a silk veil clothes.
Li Daoxuan walked along this road all the way, and there was nothing abnormal on the road, and he gradually breathed a sigh of relief. It seems like it's really empty.
Maybe there are only a few like the Four Heavenly Kings.
Out of this mentality, he began to search around for what he could get, such as the jade stones under his feet, the evergreen flowers and plants on both sides, and the sweet and clear spring water.....
Heavenly Court is worthy of being a sacred place of immortals, it can really be described as a treasure in five steps, any thing, it is a rare treasure in the world.
He is not ashamed, he is not a bastard, he has a cheap advantage, this time he came to Heaven, his body was so badly damaged, he naturally had to take more things to make up for it.
And he had a hunch that the reason why Heavenly Court was so calm this time was related to the bloody battle of Chiyou last time.
At that time, Chi You came to Heaven, the existence that was hiding behind the scenes, but he did not hesitate to summon the imprints of countless immortals from the long river of time and space to block Chi You.
Now it seems that Chiyou's battle really hurt the existence behind the scenes, and even fell into a deep sleep, which is why it was so quiet this time.
Continuing to walk forward, after a turn, Li Daoxuan finally saw a different scenery.
Under the bright moon, which symbolizes reunion, a huge ancient tree stands quietly, with branches and vines slanting, covering the sky and the sun, and circulating with a faint moonlight.
There are many jade plaques hanging on it, which are connected in pairs with red threads, gently swaying in the breeze. Acacia trees!
Li Daoxuan's pupils froze, his body suddenly tensed, and he subconsciously took a step back.
As for the little flower god, he was so frightened that he almost screamed, his petite body trembled, and his little face turned pale. Just because under the acacia tree, which originally symbolized a good marriage, there was a corpse hanging.
It was an old man with gray hair, with his back to Li Daoxuan, with a long robe and wide sleeves, tied with a red thread around his neck, and he was hanged under the acacia tree, and his body swayed gently with the breeze, and the white hair fluttered endlessly.
However, even though he became a corpse, his body still shone with a layer of reddish light, which was somewhat similar to the mandarin duck lantern in front of the door.
And the moon-shaped ring around his waist and the book of "Marriage Book" that he still holds after his death all tell the identity of this old man.
The lord of the Moon Tower, and at the same time, the immortal who is in charge of the marriage of the world - Yue Lao! A chill arose behind Li Daoxuan's back, and his scalp was numb.
This scene is really weird, the legendary Yue Lao actually hanged himself under the acacia tree, and what he used to hang himself seemed to be the red rope he used to bind his marriage.....
It's hard to imagine what happened to the old man?
No wonder Heavenly Court is so quiet, could there be a corpse in every immortal palace? That Sky Treasure Palace......
Hiss, don't dare to think, don't dare to think, Li Daoxuan stared at this strange scene and did not step forward for the time being.
He has some covetousness for the "Book of Marriage" in the hands of the old man, this thing is the same as the "Book of Life and Death", it belongs to the immortal weapon transformed by the rules of Shinto, and it has infinite mysteries.
For example, Sun Wukong swiped on the book of life and death, and the monkeys and monkeys of Huaguo Mountain were all immortal, and their longevity was endless
If he can get the "Marriage Book", he will be equivalent to getting a big killing weapon.
For example, with a casual hook of his hand, he connected an arrogant enemy with Roaring Sky..... I'm afraid that the other party wants to die.
After hesitating for a moment, Li Daoxuan still decided to give it a try, after all, the immortal weapon is in front of him, and it is still a symbol of authority, and it is fake to say that he is not greedy.
But he was cautious, and he didn't use his real body, but with a movement of his hair, he conjured up a clone and walked towards the old man's corpse.
One-step, two-step, three-step.....
The doppelganger is getting closer and closer to Yue Lao, and there is nothing abnormal, it seems that the other party is really just a corpse. Finally, the doppelganger's hand grabbed the marriage book and pulled it hard, tearing it off from Yue Lao's hand. There was a hint of excitement in his eyes, he didn't expect to obtain an immortal weapon so easily.
And yet the next moment.
Poof!
Yue Lao's body suddenly fell, fell to the ground, and turned into ashes and dissipated.
And the red rope that hanged him seemed to have life, and instantly wrapped around the neck of the doppelganger, hanging it from the acacia tree.
The doppelganger has mana and all kinds of magical powers, but at this time, he seems to have forgotten all of them, clutching his throat like an ordinary person, his face turned purple, and his eyes showed a look of despair.
In a few moments, he was hanged under the acacia tree, still holding the marriage book tightly in his hand, and his body fluttered gently in the breeze.
As if waiting for the next prey to take the bait.
