Chapter 154: Barbarians
After Zhang Yu dealt with some matters in his residence, the next day, he left the school palace with Xia Jian in his hand, ready to go to the island to check.
However, when he came back before, he had seen an inconspicuous code on a tree not far from the school palace, so he had to see one more person before he officially set off.
He rode out of Ruiguang City in a carriage from Nancheng, all the way to the seaside, he looked at the surging waves in front of him, and under the blue sky, the free gulls flew there, making a cheerful chirping.
After waiting for a long time, the sound of footsteps could be heard in the distance.
He looked sideways and saw Cai Hui coming over. I haven't seen it for many days, but the chaotic aura on the latter's body has calmed down a little compared to before, and it seems that the spiritual organization of the snail horn white bull that I took last time was used by his people.
After Cai Hui approached, he clasped his hands together, saluted him heavily, and said with a little red eyes: "Senior Brother Zhang, thank you for avenging my daughter." ”
Zhang Yu raised his hand and saluted, "Senior Brother Cai doesn't have to be like this, Shu Tong is my adoptive father's friend and my guarantor, I must seek justice for their family in this matter." ”
Cai Hui restrained her emotions and said solemnly: "No matter what, without Senior Brother Zhang, I don't know when my daughter's enmity will have to wait." Speaking of this, he gritted his teeth and said, "It's a pity that Yan Xulun hasn't subjugated the law yet!"
Zhang Yudao: "Yan Xulun has a lot of things to do, he has hidden a lot of secrets, and the capital still needs to find a way to dig it out of his mouth, but he has been given up by the Divine Captain Army, and now he has been convicted again, so don't think about coming out again, and there are a lot of tortures waiting for him every day." ”
Cai Hui said hatefully: "Yes! Killing him with a knife will inevitably cheapen him, I heard that Yan Xulun's health is very good, and he knows how to take care of it, I hope he can enjoy more torture in the dungeon of the government office." ”
Zhang Yu didn't discuss this matter any further, but said, "Senior Brother Cai, have you been there since then?"
Cai Yu knew what Zhang Yu knew, he sighed, and said: "I can't go back anyway, so be it, although some people there are not very good, but there is no one to control them, everyone will not ask about other people's affairs, and my current grudge is almost over, and I don't have so many ideas." ”
He raised his head and said, "Senior Brother Zhang, if you need my help, please just say it, I will definitely try to do it." ”
Zhang Yudao: "I don't need Senior Brother Cai's help now, but there is one thing I want to ask, last year, Ying Yuan appeared in Ruiguang City and killed a strange god, some people in the mansion judged that he came to buy the supernatural organization at the auction market, but some people said that he had another purpose for this trip, I don't know if Senior Brother Cai knew about it?"
Cai Ying said: "I know about this matter, I was outside the city at the time, and Senior Brother Ying's entry into the city was also received by me, Senior Brother Ying really only came for those two supernatural organs, and he didn't have any other plans." ”
He hesitated for a moment and said, "Senior Brother Zhang, there is a sentence, although I think it is a little inappropriate, I still feel that I want to talk to you, I hope you don't blame." ”
Zhang Yudao: "Senior Brother Cai, but it's okay to talk about it. ”
Cai Hui said: "Actually, after I got over there, I found that there were many untruths in what the Xuanfu said about Hun Xiu before, it seems that Senior Brother Ying, Senior Brother Xu said that he was heinous, but after I contacted him, I found that this was not the case, Senior Brother Ying is a very arrogant person, and he never disdains to do those small things." ”
Next, he successively said some old things he had heard about Ying Yuan and Xuanfu.
For example, Xu Ying is now the person who hates Ying Yuan the most in the Xuan Mansion, but in fact, he used to be an admirer of Ying Yuan, and even when Xu Ying first cultivated Xuan, Ying Yuan was in charge of guiding, and his attitude changed because of something later.
And about Xuanfu, Cai Wan recently overheard a news that I don't know if it's true or not, saying that during the battle of Honghe Pass that year, there was a Xuanxiu in Xuanfu who suddenly disappeared, and a few years later, he appeared as a Hun Xiu, and tried to seize the position of Xuanshou in the hands of Qi Yu, after the two fought a big battle, this person was completely out of news, and Qi Yu has rarely appeared since then.
After listening to this, Zhang Yu was also thoughtful.
If this matter is true, then the hostility of the Xuanfu to Hun Xiu can be understood.
However, in the matter of Yingyuan, he did not immediately accept Cai Ying's statement, he knew very well that different positions, different angles of looking at problems, and different views on a person or a thing.
And the human heart is very complex, and it is impossible to make judgments without having been in contact with it.
After talking to Cai Hui, he said goodbye to the others, and then walked to the edge of the beach, glanced at the distant sky, raised his head slightly, and as soon as the light on his body was released, he took off into the air, and then walked towards the west.
He sped along the surface of the sea alone, staring at the undulating sea below.
Just a year ago, he had to rely on sea ships to traverse this sea, but now he can fly through the air on his own, and at this moment, he can't help but feel at ease in his heart.
He relied on the islands that originally existed in Tenghai to identify the direction, but after half a day, he saw the island that Zhao Xiangcheng said from a distance.
The island is very recognizable, with a grayish-white appearance and a bulge above the sea, with no vegetation on the island.
After getting closer, he circled along the island, and then pulled it high into the air, looking down from above, and found that the island was indeed a huge statue of a god, as Dou Chang said. The facial features are very recognizable, but the eyes are closed, as if they are asleep.
He cultivated all six seals, and his perception was more acute than Dou Chang's, and he could clearly see that the part of the exposed water was only half of the head of this statue, and part of the shoulders, which were tilted to one side as a whole, and under the sea, the statue also had a huge body, but the further down it became, the rougher it became, and it was obviously not able to be carved and chiseled.
And this idol and the small statue he saw can be called exactly the same, typical of the style of the Yidians, as for which period, it needs to be carefully distinguished.
After a moment's notice, his mind moved, and his body fell in the light, and he stood on a sloping stone platform that had not yet completely collapsed.
The highest point of the island is the remains of a half-collapsed temple on the north side of the island, and from the layout and specifications, it is clear that the original place where the island's craftsmen worshipped foreign gods, but now there is nothing left but collapsed stone pillars and broken statues.
The rest of the place was filled with hand-hewn stone platforms like the ones he had beneath his feet, each of which contained thousands of statues of gods.
It's just that the shape of the statue is the same, and it seems that there are some strict rules that bind the craftsman from making any changes.
He walked forward, and after only a dozen steps, he could feel a faint stream of heat drifting towards him from all directions, and converging into his body.
He couldn't help but pause slightly.
It's just that the feeling came and went as fast as it came, but after a few breaths, it disappeared again, and as he walked forward again, after another hundred steps, the feeling reappeared.
At this time, he also discovered that some of the gods on this island can indeed provide themselves with source energy, but the heat flow comes from those gods that are still complete, those that have not been carved, or those that have been destroyed after completion, there is no source energy on them.
He took a closer look and found that most of the idols were not damaged by natural causes, but by a large-scale organized destruction of the temple, and that the temple had collapsed, but even so, many of the statues had been preserved.
He thought to himself, the scope of this island is quite large, although it won't take much time to fly, but if the speed is too fast, the source energy will not have time to absorb it, if you want to get all the source energy here, you must stay on the island for a few more days.
And just as he was walking on the island, in the southwest of the island, three ships came out of the fog, suddenly appeared on the surface of the sea, and headed towards the island.
Although the person standing above was wearing the leather armor of the hired hunters of the Togofu people, his face was rough, he was short, his skin was grayish-white, and his exposed muscles were painted with colored oil paint.
On the top deck, there stood an old priest, wearing a hat woven with colored feathers and gold thread, a blue and yellow hanging dress, and a gold-sealed scepter in his hand, he looked at the island in front of him with a hint of anticipation and excitement, and opened his hands and said, "That's right, that's the body, that's the body of God Ita!"
Beside him, a man wearing a white mask, said in Tianxia language: "It seems that this is indeed your god, I have brought you here, I hope you can also fulfill your promises." ”
The old priest said, "Yes." He looked at the island, took the scepter, and said fanatically, "As long as the god Ita returns to his body, and when the light of the gods shines again on the sea, nothing will be able to stop us!"
