Chapter 43: The East of the East China Sea
After entering the house, Ah Gou saw that his original body was still sitting at the table, his eyes were staring directly at the spinning top, and although the spinning top on the table did not rotate, it stood on the table.
Ah Gou glanced back at Yu Qingxian and said, "Immortal, can you wake me up?"
Yu Qingxian swept over the top of Ah Gou's head with the floating dust in his hand, Ah Gou shivered, and then, his dream woke up.
The spinning top on the table fell down.
Ah Gou got up from the table and rubbed his misty eyes, looking very haggard, as if he had not slept well. However, when Ah Gou saw Yu Qingxian standing at the door, he immediately remembered what happened in his dream.
"Shangxian, let's go. Ah Gou was afraid that Yu Qingxian would regret not letting him go to the "Jade Void Palace", so he put away the spinning top, walked to Yu Qingxian's side, and urged.
Yu Qingxian naturally understood Ah Gou's worries, he smiled and said, "Don't worry, don't worry." You pack your bags first, I'll be waiting for you here. ”
The clothes that Ah Dog brought back had been lost when he was hunted down by the "Quartet Ghosts", and when he came here, Lao Qi bought him a change of clothes. Therefore, Ah Gou simply wrapped up the things he wanted to pack, the only piece of clothing.
Before leaving, Ah Gou said goodbye to Lao Qi again. Lao Qi stood at the door, looking at Ah Gou, a little reluctant.
Ah Gou felt that he had deceived Lao Qi, and he felt guilty, and his eyes did not dare to look directly at Lao Qi. Lao Qi thought that Ah Gou was too worried about his mother's condition, so he had no energy.
Lao Qi patted Ah Gou's shoulder and said, "Ah Gou, you are a filial son, your filial piety will definitely move heaven and earth, and your mother will be safe." When the time comes, you'll definitely come here again to help me work. ”
Ah Gou nodded fiercely. When he left home, Blacksmith Feng told him that the world was sinister and unpredictable. But the people that Ah Dog met basically had a kind heart.
Leaving the bazaar, we went to the wilderness.
Yu Qingxian shook off the dust, there was an extra long sword on the ground, the long sword slowly became larger, after Yu Qingxian stepped on the sword, he beckoned Ah Gou to come up too. Ah Gou came up cautiously and leaned tightly against Yu Qingxian.
"Let's go!!"
Yu Qingxian said lightly.
The long sword flew smoothly, and soon the dog went straight up to the clouds. Looking at the soft white clouds under his feet, Ah Gou was both nervous and excited. Although Feng Aya'er taught him the light skill of "stepping on the snow without a trace", it was just a martial art, compared to "Flying with Edgeworth", it was a small thing.
"Stand firm, young man. I'm going to speed up. Yu Qingxian said.
Yu Qingxian's words did not fall, the long sword was like a sword off the string, moving forward rapidly, Ah Gou only saw the white clouds on both sides passing quickly, he was dizzy for a while, Ah Gou was busy pulling Yu Qingxian's clothes with his hand, and after a while, Ah Gou adapted to the fast flight.
After Ah Gou calmed down his nervous mood, he looked down, and under the floating clouds, there were mountains one after another, undulating with each other. Before the dog could see enough, they came to the top of the sea.
"Shangxian, where are we going?" asked Ah Gou.
"Jade Void Palace. Yu Qingxian replied.
Of course, Ah Gou knew that they were going to the "Jade Void Palace", and what Ah Gou wanted to ask was where the "Jade Void Palace" was, was it on the ethereal sea?
"Yuxu Palace is one of the three overseas palaces. Yu Qingxian said, "The other two palaces are Taiqing Palace and Shangqing Palace. In that year, after Hongjun Ancestor was feathered, he established three palaces in overseas Xianshan. Except for the Jade Void Palace, the other two palaces were all destroyed by demons. Only the Jade Void Palace, under the maintenance of the ancestors, escaped the destruction of the demons. ”
After a pause, Yu Qingxian continued: "In ancient times, Chiyou rebelled and led the Wu clan to besiege Heavenly Court, and Yuxu Palace once again experienced the baptism of war. Later, Chiyou was trapped, and the ancestor moved the Yuxu Palace to the east of the East China Sea. ”
For the battle between immortals and demons, Ah Gou is not interested. He listened to Yu Qingxian's narration while watching the beautiful scenery under his feet. After they passed through three mountain peaks, they flew a stick of incense and entered an ethereal land, and the dog reached out to touch the things like clouds and fog beside him, giving the dog the feeling that these things were very slippery, like touching a loach.
Ah Gou sniffed his hands, and there was a sweet smell, like the glutinous rice cake that Mu Sheng made for him when he was at Mu Rong's house. I couldn't help it, Ah Dog grabbed some and was about to stuff it into his mouth, he hadn't eaten for several meals, and he was indeed hungry.
Yu Qingxian waved his hand and knocked the things in Ah Gou's hand off.
"It's a lot of water, you can't eat it. Yu Qingxian said.
Ah Gou didn't understand what it was, but Yu Qingxian said that he couldn't eat it, so he threw away the rest of the mist in his hand.
"Shangxian, how long will it take to get to the Jade Void Palace?" Ah Gou asked.
"That's it ahead. Before Yu Qingxian's words fell, Ah Gou faintly saw a glimmer of light.
Gradually, the light became bigger and bigger, and the irradiated dog couldn't open his eyes.
"Young man, you really can't do it, just close your eyes. Yu Qingxian said.
Ah Gou wanted to close his eyes for a long time, and after listening to Yu Qingxian's instructions, he closed his eyes, but he didn't leave a slit completely, through the slit in his eyes, Ah Gou looked at the blue water below vaguely, and Ah Gou felt that the sea breeze was getting stronger and stronger, and he even smelled the fishy smell of sea water.
When the bright light passes, the dog's eyes can be opened.
"Shangxian, what kind of light did you emit just now?" Ah Gou asked.
"The Light of the One. Yu Qingxian said lightly, he didn't explain too much to Ah Gou what the 'Light of Taiyi' was about, Ah Gou was a little puzzled in his heart, but he didn't dare to ask.
The sun is close to the water, the afterglow of the setting sun is flat on the water, the golden light is shining, and the waves in the sea are sparkling in the light of the setting sun. Just as Ah Dog was admiring the light of the sea and sky, a big bird flew from one side of the sky, and then flew away with lightning speed.
The appearance disappeared in an instant, and Ah Dog just saw the beautiful feathers and golden crown of the big bird.
"What kind of bird is that?" asked Gou.
"Phoenix. Yuqing Immortal said without replying.
"Is there really a phoenix?"
Ah Gou's mouth opened wide, for him, it was really incredible to be able to see the phoenix. Ah Gou just listened to the old man in "Taoyuan Village" say that in ancient times, there were mythical beasts phoenixes and dragons, but those were thousands of things, and no one has seen them now.
Ah Gou thought that if he returned to "Taoyuan Village" and told Mu Rong that he had seen the phoenix, Mu Rong would definitely point to his nose and say that he was lying. Even Ah Gou can think of Mu Rong's shyness.
Thinking of Mu Rong, Ah Gou's face couldn't help but show a happy smile.
"Thinking of your sweetheart?" Yu Qingxian said.
was spied on by Yu Qingxian, and Ah Gou was a little ashamed. He scratched his head and lowered his head in embarrassment.
"Don't blame me for not telling you in advance, if you become a disciple of the 'Jade Void Palace', you can't have the love of children. Yu Qingxian said, "How to choose, you have to figure it out yourself." ”
Yu Qingxian's words put Ah Gou in a dilemma. The black-robed Taoist just asked him to come to Yuqing Immortal to practice the "Mixed Yuan True Qi", but he didn't tell Ah Gou that a disciple of the "Jade Void Palace" couldn't have the love of a child. Could it be that you want to give up Mu Rong by yourself?
A dog is reluctant. However, if he didn't become a disciple of the "Jade Void Palace", Mu Rong would die. Compared with the two, Ah Gou firmly chose to save Mu Rong, as long as Mu Rong can be happy, even if she can't be with herself, she won't have any complaints.
As the dog pondered, he saw an island floating in the air in front of him. The lower part of the island is a vast expanse of white water, and those below look up and think it is a floating white cloud. They could never have imagined that above the white clouds, there would be an island.
There were flowers and trees on the island, and there was a gurgling stream, and from time to time, strange birds flew out of the forest, some with two heads, some without wings, and some with three tails.
Reaching the top of the floating island, Yu Qingxian took Ah Gou down the sword. Yu Qingxian waved the floating dust, and the long sword disappeared. Ah Dog looked left and right, it was full of flowers and trees, could it be that this is the legendary "Jade Void Palace"?
Yu Qingxian in front, with a dog not much, a dog will see the steps of Zhulan white stone, go up the steps, on both sides is the green tree clear stream, at the end of the white stone, is the floor suddenly towered, the pavilion is majestic, magnolia surrounding, splendid, colorful ibis glass head.
"What a majestic archway. Ah Gou couldn't help whispering in his heart.
But see three big characters on the archway: Yuxu Palace. On either side is a couplet: Left: Chaos begins with a clear and generous path. Right: Hongmeng has not turned into yang and yin and dark qi.
Ah Gou stood in front of the Jade Void Palace, and suddenly felt a gust of wind, he looked back, and a white tiger stood behind him. However, Ah Gou already knew that the white tiger was Xiaohua, the mount of Yu Qingxian, so he was no longer afraid.
Yu Qingxian patted Xiaohua's forehead with his hand, Xiaohua hissed, and a jump disappeared.
"Let's go. When you enter this gate, you will be in the Jade Void Palace. Yu Qingxian led the way in front, first stepped into the archway of Yuxu Palace, Ah Gou followed behind Yu Qing Xian, and was about to cross over, suddenly, Ah Gou felt an invisible force, and pulled him back. The dog flew out like an arrow off the string.
When Ah Dog got up from the ground, there was already a white-bearded old man in front of him. This person's appearance is similar to that of Yuqing Immortal, and the only difference between the two is the jade belt around their waists. Yu Qingxian's waist is a purple jade belt, and this person is a brown jade belt.
"Master, you're back. "The man clenched his fists like a jade fairy salute. Yu Qingxian bowed slightly.
After giving the salute, the man seemed to be a different person, and he lost his previous deference, and immediately became arrogant. The man pointed at Yuqing Immortal's nose and said loudly: "Senior Brother Yuqing, it's not that Senior Brother is talking about you, you are becoming less and less immortal now." How can you bring everyone to the 'Jade Void Palace'?"
"Senior brother doesn't know. There was an important reason why I brought him here. Yu Qingxian was about to continue. Yuming Zhenren waved his hand and said, "Don't talk about it, I know what you're going to talk about next." ”
