Chapter 12: The Winter Solstice
"Fetch a big rock." Li naturally commanded the little pig on the ground. This pig is not stupid at all.
The little pig's eyes lit up when he heard this, yes, he was willing to go far. After kowtowing two more times, he hurriedly got up and ran away.
Gu Qingying and Zhang Ruyue looked at what had just happened blankly, and after the two looked at each other, they saw doubts in each other's eyes, what was going on?
The little boar came back with a large stone more than half a man high. Put it in front of Li Nature.
Li Daochang grabbed the sword trick in his hand and waved it at the boulder in the air, and then saw that the boulder was carved into a tombstone like tofu. Then he used the Xuan Qi, and the boulder rose from the ground, flew to the front of the grave and fell with a bang. A burst of stone chips peeled from above, revealing a text on it.
The tomb of Brother Crow, next to it is a line of small letters, the fifth day of November in 1310
After explaining to the little wild boar, it was illiterate and smiled. Rubbing the stele, it was like touching the shoulder of a good brother. Stood for a long time.
Li naturally walked over and said leisurely: "Do you know what day it is?" ”
Stretched out his hand and patted the little wild boar's shoulder, and continued without waiting for the other party to answer: "Today is the winter solstice, the solstice, and the polar night intersects, and it has grown since then." ”
With that, a faint burst of golden light shrouded the small grave.
"The beginning of the heroic spirit is growing day by day, and the origin of Guiyang is just the road"
A circle of invisible fluctuations obscured the circle, and it was invisible.
"Let's go"
A group of three people, and a pig demon, gradually disappeared in the falling wind and snow. From time to time, there was a lot of noise.
"Eh, little wild boar, you said that Buddha, can you really live forever if you eat it? I don't believe it. ”
"Definitely can, the Great Sage won't lie to me."
"It's a fart, we cultivators, it's ourselves who cultivate, and if you eat other people's flesh, you can live forever, so you can deceive the little girl."
"Little Taoist, what do you mean, I don't believe it if I don't know, that monk is not like your Taoist, who cultivates in the square, and people cultivate it to call an afterlife, otherwise where will the Buddha come from...
"Nonsense,"
"Don't believe it!"
"By the way, little boar, do you have a name?"
"I don't have a name, Michijo"
"The surname is Zhu, the name is Shunyi, I hope you will do well in the future, how about it."
。。。。。
Above the Sword Pavilion, in a majestic hall, the atmosphere was gloomy. Everyone looked at the old man who was sitting in the first place, the old man who rarely spoke, Qing Ce.
Since Zhang Wendao reversed the big array and sealed the mountain gate, he has been at a loss here for several days.
"Send 300 disciples below Zhenxuan, contact the elders who are outside the gods, find Li Tiantian, snatch back Mai, and kill."
Everyone present breathed a sigh of relief, bowed down, and then withdrew from the hall one after another. No one questioned what the Great Xuan Master said, because it was a wisp of heaven grabbed from the long river of numerology, and there would be no mistakes.
"This son, a great disaster"
After all the disciples had withdrawn, Qing Ce spit out four words at the remaining Qingzi junior brothers in the hall. Then everyone's brows furrowed one after another, and they didn't disperse for a long time.
Dangyang City. Located in the pass on the west side of the Langdang Mountains, stuck in the throat, the purpose of building this city was to lock up the demons of the three thousand miles in the mountains, so as not to bring disaster to the world.
Now, however, it has become the best place for monks to go into the mountains to seek opportunities.
Originally, Li Nature, who was still a little unable to find the direction, now has Zhang Ruyue's leadership, and he is not in a hurry. The group stopped and stopped, and three days later came to Dangyang City.
It was the first time he had come to this remote western realm, and it was also a square city shrouded in formations, with openings at the city gates. A uniformly dressed group of monks inspected and collected fees for entering the city. It's no different from other places, after all, everyone in the city will be conveniently protected accordingly.
It's just that there is one point, he didn't see ordinary mortals here, whether high or low, they actually have some cultivation in their bodies.
Moreover, in the north where the old man was stationed before, it seems that there are more warriors and Taoists. Although there are still many warriors here, you can also see a lot of big bald heads holding wheels, with a sad and compassionate face. There are also cultivators with hooded robes of various colors, bells and whistles on their faces, and a slender wooden stick in their hands, and they don't know what sect they are.
Of course, under the observation of this meeting, it is not that there is no Taoist sword cultivation and the like. It's just a little less.
"Shunyi, you can teach the four of us the fee in a moment." Li naturally said to Zhu Shunyi, who was wearing a straw hat and covering his pig's face, and took out a large piece of silver ingot and handed it to him.
Zhang Ruyue stopped her voice and explained to Li Nature
"Daochang Li, don't you know, this Dangyang City guards Langdang Mountain, and the nearest mortal city is more than a thousand miles, and there are no towns along the way. Except for the aboriginal mountain people scattered around here. There are almost no ordinary people. Therefore, the city gate did not collect worldly gold and silver, but spiritual beads. ”
Li naturally felt fresh, as mentioned in the book, the western border is vast and desolate, not as densely populated as the eastern border, but the two cities are separated by more than a thousand miles, and the middle is deserted. Moreover, there were only cultivators in a huge city. couldn't help but amaze him:
"I know this spirit stone, what is the spirit bead?"
In the past few days, he wanted to learn about the various sects in the Western Realm from Zhang Ruyue and Gu Qingying. However, the two of them are also fledgling sect disciples, and they only know very little about the others, only some common sense things.
"I know this!" Gu Qingying grabbed a handful of oval beans with a faint silver light in the white and rushed to say.
"You see, this is the spirit beads, they are processed from spirit stones, each one is so big, and one spirit stone produces a hundred. It is convenient to get change when buying some mundane things in the city. As he spoke, Bai Shengsheng's little hand pinched a spirit bead that was several circles larger than a soybean and handed it to Li Tiantian.
Stretching out his hand to take it, this thing was no different from the spirit stone, and he couldn't help but ask again: "The restaurants and inns in the city are also all cultivators to operate services?" ”
"Oh, other Taoist priests are all silent, and the secret of heaven cannot be revealed, why are you so verbose, don't you know when you go in!" Gu Qingying was a little impatient and dragged Li Tiantian's sleeve towards the city gate, and said with a big bag:
"This is the girl who enters the city. You don't have to pay for it, I will take you back to the Xiaoyao Building in a while, see the world, and I will be the east. ”
In the past few days, Gu Qingying has become Li Nature's follower, roasted hare, truffle chicken soup, pan-fried matsutake mushrooms, tree chicken hot pot, if it weren't for the feelings of some pigs, Li Nature's honey zhi ham is indispensable.
In order to be able to eat a variety of delicious food, as long as Li naturally has a dispatch, and before Zhu Shunyi can make a move, this little girl will do it first. The little boar felt that his position as a follower was severely challenged.
The little wild boar followed with a smoke, and Zhang Ruyue behind looked at the backs of the two meaningfully, with a trace of worry in her eyes, and she didn't know whether it was good or bad.
Entering the city and looking at the bustling and endless stream of cultivators on the street, Li naturally felt that this Dangyang City was really interesting. Under the perception of his divine sense, he found that the shops lined up on the side of the street were all run by monks, and only the busy little ones were mostly mortals, but they were also full of energy, much stronger than ordinary mortals.
Gu Qingying chattered endlessly, introducing Li Tiantian and Zhu Shunyi to the special food and some interesting shops here, and the little wild boar looked east as if he had entered the Grand View Garden. Everything is new to see, and everything is amazing.
Li naturally lacked interest after the initial freshness had passed, and the most important thing for him at this time was to find a quiet place to settle down. Then sort out what Master has left for you so that you can make a plan.
Regardless of Li Nature's absent-mindedness, Gu Qingying arranged it on her own: "Let's go to Xiaoyao Tower to eat and listen to books first, and then find a place for the two of you to stay, and I will also go back with my senior sister to resume my life, how about it!" ”
This little girl doesn't seem to be an ordinary attachment to the rivers and lakes in the book.
Li naturally thought that it was not too late, so he nodded in agreement, and couldn't help but have some expectations for this Xiaoyao Building that Gu Qingying was thinking about.
Seeing that he had no opinion, the corners of Fairy Gu's lips fluttered, and he led the way in front of him with his hands behind his back.
