Volume 2 Outside the Mountains Chapter 163 Chen Zi'an
On the way, Xu Changsheng also asked who had kidnapped Li Yucong.
Hong Nanlan just said lightly, not a human, but a god, and never said anything else.
It's just that you'll know when you meet it.
There is a small town at the junction of Zi'an, Queqiao and Zhehua counties, called Miliang Town. Since the establishment of the state of Darui, it has been under the control of Queqiao County. There is also a tributary of the Quansai River, so it is also a good place for feng shui.
And this rice grain town, I don't know when it started, it moved from a family, saying that it was a family, but in fact, it was a bit too much, because there was only one person in that family, surnamed Chen, and known as Chen Gongzi.
As soon as this Chen Gongzi came to this rice grain town, he spent a lot of money to buy a big mansion from a profiteer who wanted to move out of the rice grain town, and renamed it Chen Mansion.
There are no friends, no visitors, and no housekeepers or maids, and it has always been a person living in a huge mansion.
Some people say that he had some strange disease that forced him to come to this rice grain town. Others say he's a monster.
But more people still think that he is a monk, an immortal who can fly to the sky.
this day.
A woman and two men came to Miliang Town, and after coming, it didn't look like they were passing by, so they went straight to Chen's mansion.
The townspeople were surprised, and only a few idle men who had eaten enough and had nothing to do followed the three of them from a distance, wanting to see what was going on.
These three people are the three Xu Changsheng who came here after looking for Li Yucong's traces.
Although he walked over the mountains and mountains for two days, Xu Changsheng also heard many unknown things from Hong Nanlan's mouth, about cultivation, about magic weapons, and about immortals.
"This is it. ”
Hong Nanlan closed his eyes and felt it carefully, and said.
"I'm going to knock on the door. ”
Xue Nan wanted to step forward, but was held by Xu Changsheng with one hand.
At this moment, the door opened from the inside out.
The door was opened by a young man, dressed in white and haired, with a handsome appearance and a smile, as if he had known that the three of them were coming.
The man walked out of the courtyard and bowed to the three of them: "Chen Zi'an has seen three Taoist friends. ”
Xu Changsheng hurriedly pulled Xue Nan to return the salute.
After seeing the ceremony, Chen Xiuming asked Hong Nanlan alone: "Daoyou, but you are from the dark stream?"
Hong Nanlan didn't nod or shake his head, just stretched out his hand a little further.
The void raised clouds, and a small compass flashed.
Chen Zi'an saluted again, and only then welcomed the three of them in.
As soon as I stepped into the door, I saw a young woman walking out of the back hall, wearing a lilac embroidered pear blossom breast-length skirt, reflecting the lovely face, and the most common one was pulled up on her head...... The woman wore her hair in a bun.
Seeing the woman come out, Chen Zi'an's face immediately became gentle, and he stepped forward quickly to support her, and it was difficult to hide her admiration in his eyes.
The three people who came from afar naturally saw Li Yucong's portrait in the Li Mansion.
Naturally, everyone knows that the woman who appeared here is the eldest lady of the Li family who is easy for everyone to find...... Li Yucong.
I don't know what Chen Zi'an said to her.
I saw Li Yucong glance at the three of them with a slight suspicion, and then turned around and went back to the back hall.
It wasn't until he couldn't see her anymore that Chen Zi'an turned around and laughed apologetically, "Let you laugh, it's better not to let Yu Cong know about some things." ”
Hong Nanlan looked at the back hall where Li Yu went back, and said lightly: "Lord Water God is too worried, my Secret Stream Dock is already difficult to protect itself, and I have no intention of planning the matter of Lord Water God." This time, it's just that my two friends are quite curious about the water god, which is a lot of trouble. ”
Hearing this, Xu Changsheng and the two of them gave up their hands again, "I've seen Lord Water God!"
On the surface, he is at ease, but on the inside, he is naturally alive.
The god of water?
Could it be that this is the last water god of the Quansai River that came from the inquiry?
If not, where are the two water gods from a county?
But it is impossible to ask a deity directly about the roots, after all, this is a taboo for monks.
Chen Zi'an smiled bitterly: "Don't bother the little gods, now it's just a wild god of incense and fire who is still in the world, where did the water god come from." ”
Seeing that Xu Changsheng still wanted to speak, Chen Zi'an immediately raised his hand, "Everyone, please." ”
In the end, the four did not enter the house.
was led by Chen Zi'an to a pavilion in a lake.
After everyone was seated, the former water god of Quansai River waved his hand to summon tea, and then asked Xu Changsheng: "This fellow Daoist has had contact with an existence like ours? ”
Xu Changsheng picked up the teacup, and his heart moved slightly, "There is a slight intersection." ”
Two figures flashed by in my heart.
One is standing on the top of the Book Mountain, holding a book of sage books, and smiling to send himself away to the little book saint.
One is standing on a boulder by the river, waving his little fist, shouting to protect his white-clothed immortal.
Saying it plainly, Chen Zi'an on the other side nodded slightly, but he was quite shocked in his heart, as a real old immortal, he could naturally feel the terrifying divine aura on Xu Changsheng's body, which made him can't help but feel a sense of closeness.
Seeing that he was still staring at himself, Xu Changsheng coughed.
"This time I came here for the matter of Lord Water God and the eldest lady of the Li family. ”
"Huh?"
Chen Zi'an's face instantly became cold when he heard this, and the aura and spiritual power around him faintly began to converge, and even the teacup in his hand faintly began to freeze.
"No, don't, we're just here to inquire, nothing else. Xue Nan hurriedly spoke.
Chen Zi'an pinched the teacup and glanced at him, then looked at Hong Nanlan, and saw that he nodded lightly before dissipating his breath.
Xu Changsheng also wiped the sweat from his forehead, and by the way, he let go of his right hand that was pressed on Fu Lu.
"What do you want to know?"
Chen Zi'an's tone was much colder, obviously not wanting others to take care of their affairs.
Xu Changsheng could also see it, but asked lightly, "How long has the fate of Lord Water God and Miss Li Family?"
"Millennium. ”
Chen Zi'an took a sip of tea, as if he was not talking about himself.
Hong Nanlan had a flat expression, looking like he had nothing to do with himself, and closed his eyes to recuperate.
Xue Nan just wanted to refute, but Xu Changsheng stretched out his hand to stop him, stared at him seriously, and said, "The water god is the water god of a thousand years ago, is she the one she was a thousand years ago?"
The teacup in Chen Zi'an's hand instantly turned into powder, and the space around him seemed to become solidified.
"You're going to teach me how to do things?"
Without waiting for Xu Changsheng to reply, Hong Nanlan on the side reached out and knocked on the stone table, and the surrounding aura coercion quietly dissipated.
"Lord Water God himself is already difficult to protect, so why bother himself?"
The disciples of the Great Sect have the eyes of the disciples of the Great Sect, and Hong Nanlan can see the crux of his problem at a glance.
If the merit is not there, the golden body will collapse.
And Xu Changsheng, who was carrying the Nameless Pupil Technique, had already discovered it at the first glance, in his Pupil Technique.
At this moment, the person sitting in front of him is not an ordinary person, but a meritorious golden body, but this golden body is cracked inch by inch, and the original golden light is also dim, as if it will be shattered in the next moment.
Dust to dust, dust to dust.
Looking at the hidden vein disciple of the Dark Stream Dock in front of him and the martial artist who didn't know what to follow, Chen Zi'an smiled bitterly and shrank back in his chair, and the originally high-spirited young man instantly turned into an old man.
"I also want to, I want to continue to watch her fall to the ground on the bank of the Qingli River, watch her marry a wife and have children, and watch her enter reincarnation. But I can't see it......"
The old man leaned back in his chair and looked at the roof, tears streaming down his face.
"I've watched her for a thousand years, looked forward to her for a thousand years, and wished her a thousand years, but I really can't wait. The golden body is already close to crumbling...... I can't wait for her to come to life any longer...... I can no longer see her on the banks of the Qingli River, looking at the river and looking at the water...... I'm just a remnant of the previous dynasty, if it weren't for the mercy of Lord Fengxiang, I would have fallen into reincarnation and never seen me again. ”
"A thousand years ago, I was the son of a county lieutenant, and she was the daughter of a county warden. The two fell in love and became husband and wife. Later, I recruited Mobei, and she waited for me to return at home, but I was mourned, and she was left at home to be widowed for me...... Later, when Mobei was pacified, I was able to become a god with military merits, but I never saw her again......"
"Later, Dafeng perished, and there was chaos in various places, and I was sheltered by incense, which can be regarded as opening up a clear and protective way in that troubled world. ”
"Later, Da Rui founded the country again and re-established the mountains and rivers, and I should have broken the golden body. But she was protected by Lord Fengxiang, and Brother Kong De understood, so he was able to continue to watch her laugh and watch her run......"
"It's a pity that there is no more ...... later"
Chen Zi'an said a lot in one breath, no one interrupted him, and watched the former god of mountains and rivers silently confide in his heart.
After listening, there was a long silence.
Xu Changsheng felt bitter in his heart, and took off Fulu, but found that there was no wine.
Some things are difficult to understand if you don't empathize with them.
But there are some things that just listening to are sad enough.
And this kind of thing is mostly love.
Most of it is the love of men and women.
Xue Nan on the side unconsciously left two lines of tears, seeing Xu Changsheng looking at him, he hurriedly used his spiritual power, and his tears were instantly evaporated, and he sat down as if nothing had happened.
"Does Mizujin-sama mind if we drink?"
Xu Changsheng asked.
Xue Nan on the side nodded frantically, this kind of thing, without any old wine, is not like words.
Chen Zi'an, who was still talking eloquently just now, lost his life in an instant.
"That's not right!"
Hong Nanlan snorted lightly, and casually took out a spirit pill and didn't put it in his mouth, but he didn't react at all.
He sat slumped in his chair like a statue.
The three of them got up.
If it weren't for their arrival, Chen Zi'an wouldn't say that he would be able to live a few more years, but at least he could make this thousand-year-old love continue a little, not now.
And after listening to this story, they couldn't bear to watch this infatuated water god disappear.
But what can be saved?
The gods of mountains and rivers are either born and raised, or they are canonized by the lord of mountains and rivers, and they also cultivate the merits of heaven and earth. These are two completely different systems from ordinary monks.
And the three people present.
They are all monks.
Seeing that the golden body on Chen Zi'an's body began to collapse, two water columns began to rise in the lake around the pavilion, and the divine light surged in the middle.
After the water column rose, it landed in the open space between the three of them and Chen Zi'an, turning into a middle-aged man with golden light.
