Chapter 123: The Saint of Fanwai Mountain (2)
A young man shuttled quickly through the green woods, his blue clothes brushing the leaves, looking very chic and easy, and not easy for people to notice. The young man looked vigorous, with clear eyebrows and an agile body, and while skimming the top of the tree, he laughed loudly behind him: "Qingxuan!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a white crane responded in a high-pitched voice in the air, swooped down, and suddenly turned into a teenager, but he looked younger, but he was also handsome and extraordinary, and somehow it had a sense of fairy wind and bones.
"Where are you going?" Qing Xuan only had time to say this, and when he saw that he was about to be unable to keep up with Zhedan, he turned into a white crane and flew into the sky, shook his wings three or two times, and came to his side without much effort.
The two of them have spent an interesting few hundred years in Juling Mountain, but they are carefree. But recently, I don't know what's going on, there have been some unquiet sounds in the northwest, and even the clouds on the horizon are faintly red, which looks weird and abnormal, like a precursor to something big about to happen. So the two teenagers stopped at the branch of one of the tallest trees and looked into the distance, trying to see what was really going on in the northwest.
"What the hell are you going to do there?"
There was a faint yearning in Zhi Dan's voice, as if he wanted to go over there to take a look, he had always been a person who couldn't sit still, but he didn't know for what reason, he never passed. He turned his head to look at Qing Xuan, as if he wanted to see some support on his face, so the young man smiled and shook his head.
"Maybe there's some kind of war, it seems that there are two tribes at war - what are you going to do with the fun?"
As soon as his words landed, suddenly there was a sound of the sky cracking from the northwest, which had been abnormal, and they were terrified. They had never heard such a terrible sound, and the tremor spread rapidly, and the earth began to collapse, and the mountains seemed to be turned over by someone, and large cracks appeared. The tree where the two of them were located sank rapidly, and the desperate roars of all kinds of creatures in the mountains and forests were endless, and this vibration seemed to destroy the heaven and earth opened by Pangu himself!
"Zhedan, look up at this day!"
The sky that had been blue was now red as far as the eye could see, as if it had been splashed with blood. The northwest sky was torn open with a huge rift, and endless floods poured down from the rift, accompanied by rolling fireballs, threatening to swallow up all the land!
It was the first time for these two teenagers to see such a terrifying scene, and for a while, apart from ensuring each other's safety, they were speechless, and they seemed to be unable to think of any other words except for the collapse of the sky. After a long time, Zhi Dan said with a solemn face: "The pillar of heaven is broken. ”
At this time, the monstrous flood had swept over without hesitation, as if nothing could stop it, and Juling Mountain was already devastated. Without hesitation, Zhedan jumped down from the height, allowing all the creatures in the mountain to escape the flood. But as long as the eye can see, there are corpses. In addition, there were wildfires in places that were not affected by the flood, and it was like a hell on earth.
Although Zhe Dan is young, he already has most of the qualities that a mountain saint should have, at least he can calm down now, just like Shennong predicted when he was a child. Qing Xuan didn't dare to hesitate, and hurriedly followed, using one of his few spells to lure the flood over and extinguish the mountain fire. But it was too late to destroy one place and raise another.
"Zhedan, this won't work at all, sooner or later they will all die! It won't be long before those fierce beasts sleeping in the mountains will wake up, and the Eastern Wilderness will be destroyed in one fell swoop!"
"You're right," he turned his head, his face already a little pale from the excessive consumption of spells, "we have to think of a remedy, let's go find those immortals!"
Both of them were young and vigorous, they didn't want anything else, and they never worried about their safety.
He settled down all those demon clans and the human races who lived in Juling and survived, adjusted his panicked mood in a very short time, and rushed to the place where the heavenly pillar collapsed with Qing Xuan. At this time, he didn't know about Gonggong and Zhuan, and he didn't know that Tianzhu was called Zhou Mountain, but he only knew that as a little immortal who still had some mana, he must take on his own mission.
The disaster continues, with floods and wildfires intertwined everywhere, and screams are heard incessantly. The ghosts who had been lurking underground had all climbed to the ground to eat the powerless people. It was in such a chaotic scene that they met Nuwa.
She dragged a snake tail behind her, looking a little tired, her brow furrowed deeply, looking at the fallen Buzhou Mountain. Even so, she gave people the impression of being gentle and amiable, like a loving mother, worried about her children, and a tear of compassion fell from the corner of her eye.
Zhedan recognized her, this was the person he saw as soon as he opened his eyes, so he called: "Niangniang." ”
Qing Xuan also knew who she was, and couldn't help but look at her twice, and a sense of closeness arose in her heart for no reason.
Nuwa recognized him, she knew all the living beings in the world, especially the people that Shennong had specially mentioned, so she nodded, and her frowning brows stretched a little: "You are Zhedan," she looked at the other teenager again: "You are Qingxuan." ”
Zhedan was glad that she still remembered herself, but she didn't have time to say any more greeting nonsense, and asked bluntly: "Niangniang, what the hell is going on?"
As he spoke, he took a deep look at the torn earth, and he actually knew very well in his heart that the woman in front of him was the least happy to see this scene, and he couldn't help but feel a little sad for her.
"I did it wrong......" she muttered, "I thought a new order would be established, but I didn't expect it to be like this......"
She lowered her head, tears sliding down her cheeks, dripping onto the crimson earth. A new seedling suddenly sprouted on the ground, but it soon withered.
"I've got to make up for it, kids. She stretched out her hand and gently touched their hair, her eyes full of determination, even a sense of determination.
"Niangniang!" Zhi Dan was worried in his heart, and couldn't help but scream, and at the same time made an extremely bold move - he reached out and grabbed Nuwa's hand, his eyes were full of worry, but he knew that he couldn't stop it, so he could only hold back the reluctance in his heart and slowly let go of his hand.
"Mother, please let us go with you. ”
Qing Xuan also nodded hurriedly. As long as Zhedan is, he will also be there. After all, he saved his own life, and this is an undoubted thing.
Nuwa sighed, but her gaze gently passed through Qing Xuan and penetrated behind him. She said softly, "Shennong, you're here." ”
When they turned around, they saw the old man standing behind him, still dressed in the same attire, still in good spirits, with a wooden cane and a medicine basket on his back, but there were more and more silver threads on his head.
The weather-beaten old man bowed slightly. Looking at these two young offspring with kind eyes, I admired their courage a little.
"Grandpa!" Zhe Dan and Qing Xuan's eyes lit up, they hadn't seen each other since they parted that year, they were both grateful to this old man in their hearts, but they couldn't find a chance to repay them. Especially Qing Xuan, the injury on his wings was healed by Shennong, not only that, but he also infused a spiritual power into Qing Xuan's body to help him transform into a human form as soon as possible, this kindness, he will not forget again.
He nodded at the two children, but his eyes looked at Nuwa, and he walked towards her step by step with a cane.
"We were all wrong...... I didn't expect it to become what it is today. Shennong sighed, and there was a bit of old age on his face. He turned his head to look at the two children who were still standing respectfully, and said to Nuwa, "We are old, and this world will be theirs sooner or later." Just leave that to them. ”
A trace of unbearability flashed in Nuwa's eyes, but she finally nodded and said to the two of them: "Now that the lives are in misery, we can't take care of so much...... You will be the youngest group of immortals. For example, if the earth is in turmoil today, although the ghost clan has produced two ghost kings, they have not yet been civilized, causing them to cruelly devour the human race, the witch clan and the demon clan, you are willing to ......"
Halfway through her speech, she seemed to realize how dangerous this matter was, and could not bear to say any more, but stepped forward and straightened their clothes. But they didn't expect Zhe Dan and Qing Xuan to nod again and again. Nuwa is the goddess of creation, and being willing to give them this task shows that she attaches great importance to them, so how can she refuse because of the difficult process?
Zhe Dan hurriedly asked again: "No?"
A crack suddenly appeared on Shennong's wrinkled face, and it was because he laughed. He admired these two young men very much, but he was also worried that they were too impatient and demanding, so he said, "If you two help the ghost king to civilize, it's not too late to come to us again?"
If only you could find it.
The old man looked calmly at the devastated land with a pair of discerning eyes that saw through the world, as if he had anticipated what would happen next. He stretched out his hand and patted the two teenagers on the shoulder, and slowly turned around and walked towards the place where the pillar had collapsed, really like an old man walking towards the twilight.
They realized from this tap how heavy the weight was, and at the same time felt a warm current rush from their shoulders to their limbs, and knew that it was the old man who was silently helping them, and they watched him go away gratefully.
"The Classic of Mountains and Seas: The Great Wilderness of the West": "In the corner of the Great Wilderness, there are mountains but they don't fit, and the name is not Zhou." ”
In the past, Gonggong and Zhuan fought for the emperor, and the anger did not touch the mountain of Zhouzhou, the heavenly pillar was broken, and the earth was destroyed. The sky is tilted to the northwest, so the sun, moon and stars are shifting, and the earth is not satisfied with the southeast, so the water and dust return.
