Chapter 060: Ancient Formation
After the aftershock, when the local fire stopped erupting magma, Fu Shiyi and his party carefully fell from the cliff to the fire island.
There is nothing else on the Fire Island except for the Yanjing persimmon tree and the palace covering an area of more than 30 acres.
When Fu Shiyi passed by the shoulder-high weeds with her, she found that there was no trace of magma on the island, and it seemed that this fire island should have been arranged with a formation to isolate the earth fire.
The palace on the island faces north and south, and directly opposite them is an outer wall and two iron gates.
The iron gate has long been rusted and cobwebbed.
"Squeak"
The iron door was unlocked and opened with a push.
The palace shrouded in mist slowly emerged:
The phoenix on the sandalwood carved cornices spreads its wings, the floating windows carved from green tiles are stacked with jade, a huge square at the end of a straight road slowly sinks with the jade steps, and a straight pillar on the huge altar in the center is carved with lifelike dragon patterns, which is far away from the phoenix on the palace.
"Qionglou Yuyu, it's simply the reappearance of the fairy palace!"
Fu Shiyi was sighing, when a breeze poured in from outside the door, and then the cornices, green tiles, floating windows and other breathing spaces in front of her turned into dust.
A palace vanished in an instant, leaving only a dusty patch.
"It's ....... Is this weathered?"
Fu Shiyi was dumbfounded.
Uncle Ba was not surprised, but just sighed regretfully:
"It seems that this palace should have been around for a certain number of years, and the reason why it has been able to stand all the way is thanks to the protection of this outer wall. ”
When Fu Shiyi heard this, he stepped forward and carefully inspected the mottled and old stone wall, and saw that there were indeed traces of runes on it.
After entering the iron gate, Fu Shiyi and the others searched around the palace, but found nothing, leaving only footprints in one place. The people who originally came on the way were inevitably a little discouraged.
"Uncle Ba, why don't we clean up the dust on the ground and inspect the floor?"
You can't go home empty-handed.
Ba Bo and the others naturally agreed, and they all showed their talents, but it took the five of them two hours to clean up the more than 30 acres of dust.
The fine white marble paved floor was revealed, and a warm glow shone on it.
Fu Shiyi was in charge of searching the floor to the north.
"Well, the floor here seems to be a lot warmer than in other places. ”
Fu Shiyi stopped, waved his sleeves, and blew away the ashes covering the floor, only to see intricate runes carved on it. Fu Shiyi didn't recognize it, but the third uncle felt a little familiar:
"It's a bit like a golden flame array that isolates the fire poison of the earth's fire, but it's not quite like it. ”
Together with the formation, the third grandfather and the fourth grandfather in the clan are the best. They didn't find anything else, so the eighth uncle planned to go back to the clan and ask the third grandfather to go down the mountain.
The twelfth uncle also returned to Yanyang Mulin.
Fu Shiyi felt that her grandfather was going to refine the Blood Spirit Pill next, and she should be able to teach on the spot at that time, so she would not be free for a while, so she thought about building the residence of Termite Mountain first.
Fu Da was supposed to arrive at Guyaju from Nanshan County a month ago, but he replied that he was seriously ill halfway, so he delayed it.
I guess I'm going home in the next few days.
Fu Shiyi and Sanniang had built a small courtyard in Yanyang before, so they were much more proficient in building houses, but she was going to build a stone wall to enclose the six acres of rime forest and bamboo.
More than two years. Under the watering of the spiritual spring, the bamboo has grown to the waist-height of Fu Shiyi.
It is much shorter than ordinary bamboo, but there are many slender branches growing on the poles, and its blade-like leaves are said to be used to make musical instruments.
On top of that, six acres of bamboo soil have begun to breed bellworms.
At least she didn't have to worry about the feed for the turkey chickens.
Fu Shiyi and Sanniang surrounded the wall for less than two days, and Fu Da, who had lost a lot of weight, finally came back, and at the same time brought back the Lingmi grain bran that Feng Qiqi had prepared for her.
"Thank you for your hard work, Fu Da, I'll just move the things, you are seriously ill, and your body is weak. Let's go back and wash up and rest. ”
Fu Shiyi originally wanted to mention to him the matter of letting Sheng Yi come over to take care of the bamboo forest, but seeing that he was depressed, he thought about waiting for his body to recover.
After moving the things in, Fu Shiyi handed Fu Da's daughter-in-law a small bottle of phantom jade honey and asked her to make a cup for Fu Da to nourish her body in the morning and evening.
After dinner, Fu Shiyi saw that Sanniang had returned to the Yanyang courtyard, so he gave Sanbo a look, and the two of them walked towards the red pith Mi Lingtian one after the other.
After the third uncle cast a soundproof spell, Fu Shiyi told the other party the thoughts he had sorted out in the past two days. After hearing this, the third uncle was slightly excited:
"Eleven, what you mean by this is that you want to tell the old man about our silkworm raising in the abandoned village?"
"Right"
Fu Shiyi nodded and said:
"Third uncle, I thought about it, and I felt that I still had to tell the old man about the dojo we found, although the magic stone had been taken back by Nan Wu Thousand Hands Guanyin, but the coffin in the ear room of the broken temple was too weird, and we didn't dare to guarantee that something would come out of it in the future. ”
As soon as the matter of the dojo is said, the old man will definitely go down to check, and then the matter of the mulberry leaves of the Lingmulberry tree being picked will not be hidden.
The third uncle's face changed for a while, and he shook his head and smiled bitterly:
"Since I got that pair of golden silkworm eggs, I have been thinking about using them to breed in exchange for spirit stones, and decades have passed, but it has become a knot in my heart. When you are old, you almost made a big mistake, Eleven, you are thinking about this very right. ”
The third uncle looked at Fu Shiyi with satisfaction:
"The strange incident of the soul harvesting tree in the ancestral tomb of the Wu family is a lesson from the past, we must not ignore the family's hundreds of years of foundation for our own selfish desires. ”
Fu Shiyi saw that the third uncle had no objections, so he put his mind at ease.
Regarding the matter of him and Sanbo raising spirit silkworms, no matter what her grandfather did, she also gladly accepted it.
At this time, the moon had climbed up the treetops, Fu Shiyi and the third uncle went back to the Yanyang courtyard, and when they were close to the bamboo house, they heard a quarrel coming from the room of Fu Da and his wife on the first floor:
In the room, Fu Da was walking around impatiently, and Fu Da's daughter-in-law was lying on the bedpost crying breathlessly:
"You have no conscience, I finally got such an errand back for my son from my eleventh aunt, you don't praise me for two sentences, just give me a meal, why is my life so bitter, married to you who kills a thousand knives....... Woowoo"
"You still have the face to cry! When I was about to leave a few years ago, I told you not to mention this matter to Aunt Eleven, you are good, cut first and then play, you still have a reason for you! If you do this, do you know the consequences, in the future, the whole clan will poke our backbone, scold us for greedy glory, and ignore filial piety, you say, in the future, you let me and Sheng Yi still have a foothold in the clan. ”
Fu Da's daughter-in-law cried, and Huo Ran stood up:
"Others talk about it, that's because they can't grab such a beauty difference, besides, this day is our own life, as long as we have a clear conscience, no matter what others say. Let Sheng Yi enter the ancient cliff house on an errand, during the New Year, father-in-law, uncle, younger siblings and your sister-in-law, brother-in-law are also full of promises, the family has one heart, and the days can be better and better, we are not those sour talents, why stick to those red tape. ”
The argument in the house continues.
Fu Shiyi listened for a while and left.
She didn't expect that the gentle and courteous daughter-in-law of Fu Da on weekdays had an idea.
On the second day, Fu Shiyi had just finished breakfast, but he didn't want to, his grandfather, third grandfather and fourth grandfather arrived at the ancient cliff residence in advance.
