Dark green moss covered the stones surrounding the pond, and the old voice of the spirit turtle shook ripples in circles until they reached the feet of Ning Chang and Si Ming.

"Dinghai Spirit Object?" Ning Chang was puzzled and asked, "What kind of spirit object?"

Zhenhai Spirit Turtle lay on the wanderer, a beam of light fell on its back, the densely entangled lines on the turtle shell were like ancient fossils, the skin scale armor on its neck became wrinkled with the movement of his head, and on both sides of the conical head, the pair of cloudy pupils gradually became clear under the washing of the instantaneous membrane.

Zhenhai Spirit Turtle looked at them, his gaze fell on Si Ming, and said, "You are very powerful. ”

Si Ming bowed his head proudly: "Well, your breath is not weak." ”

Zhenhai Spirit Turtle glanced at Ning Changjiu and said, "This young man should be your slave, right?"

Si Ming was silent for a moment and smiled: "Well, he is my waiter." ”

Ning kept holding back for a long time.

Zhenhai Spirit Turtle stared at Si Ming and asked, "Where did you come from?"

Si Ming said: "You have just woken up, you don't know how to converge, the demonic aura here is almost soaring, and it is difficult not to find out." ”

The Zhenhai Spirit Turtle looked at its reflection in the pool water, was silent for a moment, and withdrew the demonic energy that had reached the sky.

"Will they notice?" asked the Tortoise.

"They?" asked the priest, "you mean the kingdom of God?"

The Spirit Turtle nodded, and said in a somewhat stiff voice, "Well, they are our enemies. ”

Si Ming thought for a while and said, "I'm afraid it's been detected, but the demon is not evil, and the kingdom of God will not punish it for no reason." ”

The spirit turtle was silent for a while, then it raised its head again, looked at the densely covered leaves above, and said, "It seems that the rules of the Heavenly Dao have been re-established......"

Si Ming said: "Since the death of the six gods of the primordial world, the rules set by the Heavenly Dao have never changed, so how can we rebuild?"

"Hmm......" The spirit turtle did not refute, "The saint is about to become an ancient, and it is difficult to have a second savior in the world." It seems that from now on, no one will be able to change the fate of the world. ”

Si Ming asked, "What is the final decision?"

"Perish. The spirit turtle slowly spoke: "This world is dying at an accelerated pace. It's like people getting old a little bit and going to death, which is the end of knowing, but in the process of life, few people will fight death. ”

"Because it doesn't make sense. Si Ming said. Death is bound to come, this is a thing known to the whole world, and those emperors who ask for medicine have never died well.

Spirit Turtle said: "Perhaps, this is also the end of helplessness for this world." ”

Ning Changjiu heard the clue in the words and asked, "You mean to say that this world is accelerating destruction?"

The turtle thought to himself, a slave is a slave, and such a well-known thing is unknown. It said slowly: "The gods who guarded this world have long since died, and those outer gods are all devils who vainly try to usurp the world's spiritual objects, the original six gods are like this, and now they are ......."

"Shut up!" shouted Si Ming.

If it is allowed to continue, there should be a heavenly thunder that will descend and directly split its tortoise shell, what about the great demon of the Five Dao Realms? Under the power of Huanghuang Tianwei, it can still only end up with a body destroyed and a remnant soul.

The spirit turtle was already insensitive to death, but since the other party was kind, it didn't say much.

Ning Changjiu lightly touched his boss with his elbow.

Si Ming asked, "What exactly is the spiritual creature you mentioned earlier?"

The spirit turtle said: "Dinghaizhu." ”

"Dinghaizhu?" Si Ming had never heard of it.

Spirit Turtle said: "This is the pearl of the crown of the Dragon King of the North Hades, the saint entered the North Hades, turned the river and the sea, broke the Dragon Palace, turned the Shanhai into ashes, and beat the ten thousand dragons to the rest of the four oceans, the Kun people even turned their wings and escaped from the Styx, and the North Hades Dragon King was nailed to death by the saint in the land of the Hades, stretching white bones around the old peaks of the seabed, and also turned into mountains. The prison of the Siren, which had been locked for a thousand years, was also broken, and the great demon who had been trapped and oppressed by the dragons for thousands of years poured out of the nest. ”

The spirit turtle tells the history of the past, like a living history book.

Ning Changjiu asked, "You were also a demon in the sea dungeon?"

Spirit Turtle said: "No, I was ...... In fact, he was a money turtle in a temple by the sea, and he ate with his mouth. ”

Ning was silent for a long time and said, "All living beings are suffering. ”

Si Ming did not rush to ask about Ding Haizhu, but continued to talk about this spirit turtle.

When the spirit turtle first woke up from a dream, he was also happy to recall the past: "When the torture lock was cut, the dragon clan was imprisoned, and the saint was on the sea cliff platform, the white clothes fluttering, and the picture of thousands of sailors was unique, I still remember it vividly...... After that, there were decades of catastrophe, the ancient gods oppressed the world for thousands of years, the demon gods were everywhere, and the humans and demons finally united to strike at the invincible behemoths of the past. ”

"It's a pity that the kingdom of God is too strong. Si Ming sighed and expressed comfort.

The spirit turtle sighed, looked around at the small pond where it was, and said, "Yes, five hundred years in the blink of an eye...... The sea is gone, what is the use of Dinghaizhu? What use do I have?"

Si Ming glanced at Ning Changjiu, and stopped talking.

Spirit Turtle said: "Do you want to kill me to take the treasure?"

Si Ming shook his head and said, "To fight with you, it will take at least one day and one night, and I don't have that spare time." ”

"One day and one night? You are strong, but you are also great. The spirit turtle asked slowly, "Where are you going?"

Si Ming said bluntly: "Ten Thousand Demon City." ”

"Ten Thousand Demon City?" the spirit tortoise's voice changed, and it asked, "Where is that?"

Ning Chang said: "Now the gathering place of monsters is sheltered by the shadow of the saint. ”

Si Ming looked at Ning Changchang and said lightly: "I am talking to this big demon, how can you have the right to intervene as a little slave?"

Ning Chang exhaled, suppressed the emotions in his heart, and said with a smile: "I transgressed." ”

Si Ming smiled slightly, slightly proud

。

"How far is Ten Thousand Demon City from here?" asked the Spirit Tortoise.

"There are still a million miles. Si Ming said.

The spirit turtle asked again, "Where are all the remaining monsters back then?"

Si Ming said: "It should be so, maybe there is your old friend among them." ”

"If there is an old man...... "After thinking slowly, the spirit turtle said, "You went to the Ten Thousand Demon City, if you see a nine-headed green lion, can you pass on a thing for me?"

"Nine green lions?" Si Ming had a vague impression.

Spirit Turtle said: "That is my best friend in the past, when we cultivated the Ten Thousand Demon Recipe together, what I cultivated was to swallow the sea, and what he cultivated was to devour demons." ”

Si Ming said: "Why can't you go yourself?"

The spirit turtle said: "Because I have cultivated the Ten Thousand Demon Technique...... The Ten Thousand Demon Recipe is powerful, but it makes the demon must follow its nature and cannot be crossed, for example, I can't fly through the clouds and fog, I can only do it on land and sea, and I am afraid that it will be difficult for me to go to the Ten Thousand Demon City. ”

Ning Changjiu was a little interested in this Ten Thousand Demon City, and the power of such a big spell was terrifying.

Si Ming asked, "What do you want to convey?"

The spirit turtle stretched out its claws, took out a faded copper bell from the turtle shell, and said, "This is it." ”

Si Ming glanced at Ning Changchang and ordered, "Little slave, go and get it." ”

Ning Chang took a deep breath and went to retrieve the bell while keeping an account in his heart. Ning Changchang was very careful when he took the bell, and Si Ming also deliberately set aside a heart to protect him.

The spirit turtle had no desire to attack, and after passing the bell, it closed its eyes, as if it was tired.

Ning Changjiu took the bell, he looked at it, and found that the bell had been 'tongue pulled' and could not be shaken.

"When the green lion was trapped with a bell around his neck, it took me several days to break the tongue of the bell so that he would not make a sound when he fled...... Alas, it's all old anyway. ”

Si Ming looked at Ning Changchang and said, "This is much more clever than your covering your ears and stealing bells." ”

Ning Changjiu smiled awkwardly, thinking to himself, what did he say to you?

Ning Chang held the bell, looked at the old turtle, and asked simply, "What is the reward for sending this thing for you?"

Si Ming also wanted to ask this, after all, a five-way demon also had a lot of amazing magic weapons hidden on his body. But because of her identity, it was inconvenient for her to ask, but after Ning Chang's 'doing it for her', she still said coldly: "Vulgar." ”

The spirit turtle thought for a while and said, "Except for Dinghaizhu, I have nothing else on me, and after I die, this Dinghaizhu will be given to you." ”

Ning Chang looked at the old turtle and said distrustfully: "Are you a Great Demon of the Five Dao or a turtle, it's hard for me to determine which of us will die first." ”

Spirit Turtle said: "Although the turtle is long, there is still an end of time, I ...... The days are numbered, and on the day when the soul returns to heaven, I will return here, and you will come to find me. ”

"Come back here?" Ning Chang asked, "Where are you going?"

Linggui said: "Find a temple to live in and return to your old business." ”

Si Ming glanced at Ning Changchang, nodded slightly, and signaled to leave.

This place is full of demonic spirits, and if she stays for a long time, she will always attract the peeps of the gods, and she does not want to expose herself too much to the eyes of the gods.

Ning Changjiu was obviously not satisfied.

Encountering the awakening of the five great demons should have been a chance, but not only did he not get anything at this moment, but he was also used as a messenger......

Si Ming saw through his mind and sneered, "What? You still want to grab it and stew it?"

The adult laughed. Ning Chang said helplessly.

Then he waved goodbye to the old turtle behind him.

Si Ming and Ning left for a long time.

The old turtle basked in the sun motionlessly.

Ning Chang played with the bell in his hand and said, "I don't know if this bell will be useful." ”

Si Ming said lightly: "Easy opportunities are not necessarily a good thing, you must know that our lives are likely to follow a certain trajectory in the dark, and there is no idle chess, and there may be foreshadowing everywhere." ”

"That's true. Ning Changjiu put away the bell as he spoke, and said, "By the way, the previous Lord Divine Officer's command seemed to be very majestic." ”

Si Ming'e frowned lightly and said, "It's just acting, why are you so careful...... Well, what do you want to do?"

Ning Chang took her wrist and led her to a small forest.

The forest bird flew in fright.

When the two walked out of the forest, Si Ming was much more docile, but there was always an unruly temperament hidden in his ice eyes.

"Harness your sword and hurry. Ning Chang said.

Si Ming's cold voice revealed some grievances, and his tone was long: "Yes...... Master. ”

Si Ming stepped on the virtual sword and carried people.

In the blink of an eye, it was nearly dusk again, and the twilight was sinking in the west.

Ning Chang fell from the sword with her.

The two of them stood on the top of a lonely peak.

In the twilight, the peaks and stones shone in the slanting sun, and their skin was dyed a faint gold.

Si ordered to take the hand on the lonely peak, looking at the rivers from afar, and his bearing was like that.

The rushing river winds between the peaks and flows to the north.

"Where do you rest tonight?" asked Si Ming.

The two of them controlled the sword for a long time, but they only saw the barren mountains and lonely mountains, and they did not find the scenery of the city tower.

Ning Chang said: "The peaks here stretch, I don't know 100,000,000, if you want to find a small city, I'm afraid it will be as difficult as climbing to the sky." ”

Si Ming said: "Drinking the moon is food, and it is not impossible to eat the wind and stay with dew." Don't worry, I'm not that delicate, and you don't pretend to be a hypocrite. ”

Ning Changchang said curiously: "I heard that some women can get some pleasure from it when they are punished, you ...... Wouldn't it be one of them?"

Si Ming's heart froze, his pretty face was slightly red, and he shouted angrily: "What nonsense! I'm a priest!"

Ning Chang said: "You are obviously not my opponent, but why do you always provoke me with your words these days? ”

"It's not because you're too hateful!" Si Ming said coldly, turning his body slightly to the side of the sun, not looking at him.

"I see. Ning Chang was not angry.

He leaned down, looked at the rushing river between the peaks, and said, "You have worked hard all day, let me come at night." ”

"What do you want to do?!" Si Ming immediately turned back and said vigilantly.

"Don't think about it. Ning Chang said a word, then jumped off the peak, through the sea of clouds, and came to a bamboo forest surrounded by cold mist, he used his fingers as a sword, cut down several bamboos in a row, and pierced them with flexible and thin rattan bundles.

Si Ming slowly fell behind him and asked, "What are you doing here?"

Ning Changchang said: "The river flows to the north, and we also happen to go north, which is the same road." ”

Si Ming snorted coldly: "You really have a sense of leisure. ”

"There is always something remarkable about hateful people. Ning Changchang said with a smile.

Si Ming said: "Waste of time. ”

Ning Chang said: "The river is turbulent, and it is not much slower than our sword. ”

As he spoke, Ning Changjiu had neatly tied out a bamboo raft, which was very wide and just right for Si Ming to lie down.

"Come on. Ning Chang said.

Si Ming hesitated slightly, tapped his toes, and landed on the bamboo raft.

It was her first time riding on a bamboo raft.

The river held up the bamboo raft steadily, the water flow was within reach, and the waves splashed lightly, gently beating on the body, with the expected coolness. Ning sat in front for a long time, using her spiritual power to adjust the direction of the bamboo raft to prevent it from capsizing or hitting the reef, while Si Ming sat down cross-legged in the back, her fingers stretched out into the water, her thin, mother-of-pearl nails lightly touching the water, and the high-speed water rushed between her fingers, and the tightness brought by it was pleasant.

The river led them through the winding course between the peaks and into the distance.

Peaks swept by his side.

Si Ming looked up, the dangerous peaks were towering, and there was no end in sight, but the night sky was like a wash, and the stars were distinct, and he seemed to be closer to himself.

"The angry waves are rolling, stirring people's dreams, how can you sleep like this?" Si Ming's words expressed his dissatisfaction flatly.

Ning Changchang said: "It shouldn't be difficult for you to abandon the noise and forget about things and me, right?" Si Ming said: "That's just a false peace, sitting on the heaven and earth, and forgetting one's mind is the real peace of mind." ”

Ning was used to her difficulty in serving for a long time, and didn't bother to read her words, just said, "Whatever you want." ”

Si Ming smiled lightly and did not pursue it.

The moon came out from the east, the water surface was like silver, flowing into the depths of the mountains, Si Ming sat cross-legged, silver hair blowing, the robe was in the wind, the tiredness between the eyebrows turned into a lazy smile in the breeze, she suddenly raised her sleeves, cut off a thin bamboo on the side cliff, held it on her fingertips, and her fingers were strongly buckled on it, and where the fingers fell, the hole was orderly.

Si Ming holds a bamboo flute, sticks it to his lips, and between his fingers, the sound of the flute floats out, and the sound of pine waves and water, like a fairy riding a crane leisurely in the clouds, and also like a deep beauty going to an empty building alone, and the ethereal and resentful in between.

Ning Chang listened to the sound of the flute, his mind was calm, and he couldn't help but recall the time when Liantian Town and Lu were marrying and boating.

It's just that Si Ming's flute voice has a contagious power, and Ning Changchang suddenly realized that the face of Lu Marrying in his memory was actually replaced by Si Ming's beautiful silver-haired ice eyes.

He came back to his senses and smiled as he dismissed the thoughts.

The sound of the flute crossed thousands of rivers with the state, and the clouds in the sky slowly opened, sprinkling starlight on their clothes.

The raft came to the most turbulent river.

The river under the bamboo raft arches abruptly.

A vicious dragon raised its head from under the water, its fins wide open, its teeth sharp between its bloody mouths, and it roared angrily and pounced on the bamboo raft.

Ning was silent for a long time, and pushed out a sword with his fingers.

A line of white light streaked from top to bottom.

The whistling sound turned terrible, and the evil Jiao was cut in two in an instant, like two whips whipping towards the water. The mist of blood dispersed in the wind.

Si Ming closed his eyes from beginning to end, forgetting to stroke the flute, and the natural sound between heaven and earth, gradually becoming grandiose, as if this voice did not come from the flute, but from thousands of mountains.

After a long time, the sound of the flute gradually stopped.

Si Ming casually threw the flute into the water.

Ning Chang said: "This song should be sung through the ages, and it is a pity to discard it like this." ”

Si Mingyun said lightly: "The and the abandonment of the flute are all because of the interest to come and go, and it is not a pity to have this good night to remember." ”

Ning Chang listened to her words and laughed softly, but he rowed a line on the boat with his finger sword.

Si Ming asked, "What is this?"

Ning Chang said: "I think it's a pity, so I carved the mark, and when I revisit this place in the future, I can find this bamboo flute." ”

Si Ming looked at the nicks on the boat, smiled indifferently, and said, "Pretend to be crazy and stupid." ”

Ning Changchang asked: "You have been traveling in the world for nearly a year, what have you seen and heard, and how do you feel?"

Si Ming said: "It is completely different from what I saw when I first ascended the throne of God. ”

Ning Chang asked, "What did you see when you were on the throne?"

Si Ming said: "It's all dust." ”

Ning Chang said: "It has always been like this, the gods of this world call it the world, and the people call it the world. ”

Si Ming thought for a moment and said, "No matter what, one day I will return to my kingdom of God." ”

Ning Changjiu nodded lightly and said, "Everything depends on your decision." ”

Si Ming looked at the sky and said, "See you later, we should be looking at each other across the night sky." ”

Ning Changjiu smiled faintly, and he said softly: "Then it will be all up to Miss Si to protect at that time." ”

"I'll shelter the marriage, Xiaoling, you...... Ask for more blessings. Si Ming's words were as cold as ever.

She sat alone, looking at the mountains and water that flew by, they flickered in her sight, if you didn't look closely, they were just black shadows, but for some reason, Si Ming suddenly had a feeling that the world accepted me.

She shook her head slightly.

Ning Chang said: "By the way, if you find that your kingdom of God is not there in the future, you can come to me." ”

"What's the use of looking for you?" asked Si Ming.

Ning Changchang said: "Don't I also have a kingdom of God? Although it is a little tattered, it is still a country, and the position of the priest will always be reserved for you, how about it?"

"Who is rare!" Si Ming replied coldly.

She heard Ning Changjiu's words clearly, but she didn't hear the extraneous voice in his heart.

The bamboo raft went down the river.

The starry sky flips overhead.

When Ning Changjiu turned back again, Si Ming was already resting on the raft, and the night wind and water lapped her face, but it failed to wake her up.

Sit in the world and forget yourself.

Ning looked at her quiet, unreal face for a long time, and the peaks all faded out of sight, leaving only the most beautiful pair, he looked at it for a long time, and was out of his mind for a long time.

The sky was full of stars like water, and he sat alone all night at the head of the boat.

Si Ming woke up slowly, it was already white in the east, and the light boat had crossed the Ten Thousand Mountains.

She stretched her body lazily, looked at Ning Changjiu's slightly tired eyes, and said, "It's hard work." ”

Ning Changjiu smiled lightly.

The two got off the raft, but they still ran farther away with the current.

The mountains and rivers had passed, and the world in front of them was open and prosperous, and the two of them were not in a hurry, but tacitly entered several cities and walked leisurely.

This time, Si Ming seemed to think of his hard work on the night boat, and instead of cold words, he turned to laugh softly, just like his old friend for many years.

Ning Changchang put his hands on his sleeves and walked with her on the street.

Si Ming took a fancy to many rare things in the world, but he didn't buy them. Because she knew that she would leave sooner or later, these big or small ties would be lost sooner or later, so it was better not to have them at first.

It was nearly noon.

Si Ming suddenly asked curiously: "Won't you feel guilty about spending the money that Lu married you all day long?"

Ning Chang asked, "Why do you feel guilty?"

Si Ming sighed, feeling that he was less human than himself.

She was about to make another sarcastic remark, but she passed by a mysterious shop, and when she glanced at it, she saw that there were many fox tails hanging from the shop. Si Ming's expression immediately softened a lot, and he called Ning Changjiu softly, and pulled him out of the street quickly.

The two had eaten and continued on their way.

"Your sword heart seems to be a little clearer again. Ning Changchang said.

After last night, Si Ming had another wonderful understanding, and his realm climbed even higher.

Si Ming said: "There is still a long way to go from the peak, and it is not enough. ”

But although her words were cold, as if there was nothing to be proud of, the sword under her was a little faster, and she secretly showed her strength to Ning for a long time.

In the next million-mile trek, they did not encounter any real difficulties and obstacles, even if they met by chance, they were only robbers and bandits, and they belonged to the ghosts, which was not surprising, and it was not as lethal as their quarrels.

In this way, Ning Chang stood behind Si Ming, and watched the sunset several times with her sword.

Soon, the majestic Ten Thousand Demon City will unveil its huge and mysterious face before their eyes.
