However, it was said that Ma Fan and the others crossed Jindou Mountain, and traveled westward for food and lodging, and did not go out for a few days, when they suddenly encountered a small river.

If you only look at this small river from a distance, it is only a little clearer than usual, which is quite ordinary, but if you get closer, you can feel that the river water is extremely cold.

As soon as Ma Fan and the others approached the river, several people suddenly changed color slightly, and Zhu Bajie couldn't help but say: "Strange, strange, how can there be a river flowing with dark and clear water here." ”

At this time, Tang Seng said: "Hundreds of years ago, when I was still in Lingshan, I heard about the Lich War, and the ancestor of the Wu clan, Xuan Ming, died in Xiniu Hezhou and turned into a river, it seems that this river is being said." ”

"And such a thing, why haven't I heard of it before?" Zhu Bajie couldn't help asking.

Tang Seng said: "This kind of thing is too long, the witch clan has also declined, naturally there are few rumors, and the Buddhism is only because Lingshan is in Xiniuhezhou, and in the Lich War, there are non-demon clans who have invested in the Western religion and know the details, so there are some accounts, and it is not surprising that you have not heard of it." ”

Zhu Bajie said: "This dark and blue water is a good thing, since there are so many here, we will collect some of them, and they will be used to refine magic weapons in the future." ”

Tang Seng said with a smile: "The dark blue water here is just ordinary, it's just that it can refine some harmful things, but it is the vibrant thing in front of you that is a good thing, you have this leisure, it is better to collect more treasures in front." ”

As soon as Zhu Bajie heard this, he immediately opened his eyes and looked ahead, and sure enough, he saw that the opposite half of the river was really vibrant, and knew that Tang Seng's words were true, so he said: "Strange, strange." It is strange that half of this river is contaminated with the dark blue water that can kill the immortals, but the other side is so vibrant, it seems to be holy water that can save people's lives. ”

After a pause, Zhu Bajie suddenly glanced around, and then whispered: "I don't think this river is big." Otherwise, we just rushed to collect it, and go back to the whole river to refine it into a treasure, and it will be very powerful. ”

Tang Seng smiled and said: "Hehehe, this river is placed here, you think that the great powers who passed by in the past are stupid people, especially the Buddhism, there is a direct description here, and there are many masters in the Buddhism, do you think they don't know the benefits of this river? You don't want to think about why they don't take this river." The river has been placed here for so many years. ”

Zhu Bajie smiled: "Haha, I haven't thought about it, but I don't know what else I can't say?"

Tang Seng said: "At that time, the Xuan Ming and the thick soil were the most intimate in the Wu clan, so the Xuan Ming was the body, but the river turned into a channel in the Netherworld, and the six reincarnations of the thick earth were combined together, turning into a yellow spring, making up for some deficiencies in the six reincarnations.

This river looks small though. But because it's connected to the Netherworld and the Six Realms of Reincarnation, if you want to forcibly take it. Then you must have the mana that collects the entire Netherworld and the six reincarnations, otherwise you can't collect them, and you will be counterattacked by the six reincarnations, with serious injuries and scattered souls.

And if you don't take the whole river, just take some of the river's water. You can only fill a few bowls with ordinary means at a time, and you can't have more than one bucket at most, if you take advantage of the means to collect a large amount of monks such as magic spells or magic weapons, you will also be attacked by the six reincarnations after you are alarmed. ”

Zhu Bajie said: "Damn, it turns out that there is such a reason." The river's reputation is not obvious, and I am afraid that the main reason is that the water in this river cannot be seized. Thank you Master for reminding me, if it weren't for your timely reminder, maybe my old pig would have been planted here. ”

Tang Seng smiled and said, "You and I don't have to be like this. ”

A few people were talking, and suddenly they saw a dumb person in the willow yin opposite, holding out a colorful boat.

This big ship is taller than any warship that Ma Fan has ever seen in the Eastern Wu Army, like a city, and this ship has obviously been sacrificed by people, and it has reached the magic weapon level.

Ma Fan waited to see the boat appear, and after a while, the boat came not far in front of Ma Fan and others, and saw a woman standing at the bow of the boat and asked loudly, "Are you waiting to cross the river?"

didn't wait for others to answer, but Zhu Bajie had already preemptively gone over and smiled: "Exactly, exactly, can you take us for a ride?"

The woman smiled and said, "I have made a living from this on this river, where is there a reason for business to come to play extrapolation, you can go to bed quickly." ”

Although Ma Fan and others can fly now, it is not difficult to leap across the river, but no one of them showed their intention to fly, and they all showed joy on this colorful boat.

After a few people got on the big boat, Zhu Bajie looked around, and then said with a smile: "Are you the ferryman, why is it a woman, what about your boatman?"

The woman smiled and didn't answer, but used her magic to steer the colorful boat and head towards the opposite side.

Zhu Bajie replied with a smile: "I said that this eldest sister, seeing that your cultivation is not weak, you have already turned into a god in the late stage, as long as your cultivation is revealed, I am afraid that you will be worshiped by the imperial court, why do you operate a boat here for a living, is this your special cultivation method or is it not what is the benefit of operating a boat ferryman here?"

The woman smiled and said: "Don't make fun of me, you master, here is not a special cultivation method, nor is there any benefit, it is really my low skills, I can only make a living from it, as for what you said about being worshipped, it is a bigger joke, in our country, it is many underage babies who are better than me in cultivation, which officials in the court do not have the level of immortals, there are a few offerings in the imperial court, but they are all Da Luo Jin Xian or above the strength, we can get an errand to cross the river is already extremely good." ”

Zhu Bajie smiled: "Your eldest sister doesn't want to say it, forget it, just coax me with those words, do you really think that your court is a heavenly court?"

The woman smiled and said, "Haha, if you don't want to believe me when I tell you the truth, when you get to our country, you can go and see for yourself to see if I have lied to you." ”

Zhu Bajie saw that this woman swore with a sworn face, and she didn't have the slightest shy appearance of being knocked through the cowhide, and couldn't help but wonder: "Could it be that there is really such a country, why haven't you heard of it before?"

Seeing that Zhu Bajie stopped talking, the woman took the initiative to smile and said, "I don't think a few masters are ordinary people, I don't know what happened to you when you came to our Xiliang Women's Country?"

Tang Seng said, "Amitabha, poor monks and others are from the Tang Dynasty in the eastern region, and they want to go to the west to worship the Buddha and ask for scriptures, and your country is just passing by, not having something to do." By the way, is your country called Xiliang Women's Country, why did we inquire all the way before, but we never heard anyone talk about this country. ”

The woman smiled and said: "Our Xiliang Women's Country is separated from the outside world by this Zimu River outside, and ordinary people can't come to our country, and we can't leave the Xiliang Women's Country because we are prohibited, and it's not surprising that the ordinary people of those countries around us don't know about the existence of our Xiliang Women's Country." ”

"Hey, what are you for, what are you forbidden to be, and you can't leave your country?" Tang Seng couldn't help asking.

The woman said, "None of you are ordinary people, but you don't know if you know the Ancient Heavenly Court?"

Tang Seng said: "Ancient Heavenly Court, we have naturally heard of it, but I don't know what it has to do with the prohibition you are subjected to?"

The woman said: "In ancient times, the immortals in heaven and earth were all under the jurisdiction of the demon clan, the prince of the east was in charge of the male immortals, and the queen mother of the west was in charge of the female immortals.

And the ancestors of our Xiliang Female Kingdom were all fairies in ancient times, under the control of the Queen Mother of the West, so during the Lich War, they had to obey the orders of the Queen Mother of the West and follow the Queen Mother of the West to besiege and kill the Xuanming ancestor of the Wu Clan.

At the moment of death, the Xuanming Ancestor of the Wu Clan performed a curse of the Wu Clan, which was extremely vicious and had a lot of content, one of which was that all the people who participated in that battle and their descendants could not step out of the river of the Xuanming Ancestor for the rest of their lives, and once they stepped out, the curse broke out, and their souls were immediately scattered.

Except for the Queen Mother of the West, who participated in that battle and resisted the curse, the rest of the people were unable to exorcise the curse, so since the Lich War, our ancestors had no choice but to build a country here and pass it on to this day.

The people of our country are unable to go out, and most of the people outside cannot come in because of the isolation of the Zimu River, so the Xiliang Women's Kingdom has been living a life of isolation from the world. ”

Tang Seng said: "It turns out that your country has such a background, and the cultivation that can follow the Queen Mother of the West to besiege and kill the ancestor Wu Xuanming must be extraordinary figures, no wonder you will say that your cultivation is just ordinary in your country." ”

At this time, Zhu Bajie interjected and asked: "Although you can't go out, but with you ferrying here, people from outside can still enter your country, you shouldn't have no contact with the outside world, how can you say that you live a life of isolation, and those countries outside don't know the existence of such a Xiliang female country as you?"

The woman smiled and said, "Master, the curse technique used by the Xuanming Ancestor Witch back then was extremely powerful, and if you want to isolate us people, it will naturally not be so easy for outsiders to discover us, you are all extraordinary people, so you can naturally see me and my ferry, but if there are mortals here, I will occupy in front of them, and they will not be able to see me and my ferry."

I'm ferrying here, in fact, the ferries are just some monks, in the past it was better, there are often monks here, and there are several people a day, but over the years, I heard that there is a lot of chaos outside, especially what immeasurable Taoists, so that a large number of monks outside die, there are not many monks outside, and even fewer people go to our Xiliang women's country, and sometimes I have no guests here for several years, and the days are almost over, so I will stay here early in the morning, and when I see you, I will quickly come up to answer and cross the river. ”

Hearing this, Ma Fan and the others couldn't help but show strange expressions. (To be continued......)
