Chapter 33: The Gift of Fire
Once on the gold roster, it turned into smoke and dust overnight.
This sentence has been circulated in the Three Realms, and Rao is a little fox like Lishuyu, who grew up in the ravine of Lingyuan, has heard of it.
The Golden Register is a golden brocade book, made by the ancient god Bai Ze, and is kept by the various Shangxian families in turn, and the current custodian is Qi Feng, the next owner of the pilgrimage palace.
The golden roster is the will of heaven, with the cloud as the pen and the immortal power as the ink, if the name can be displayed on the roster, it is the person who will eventually fall into the demon and must be eradicated. There are ten leaders of the silver wolf clan that can be traced, in addition to the five who have become ancient and the seven madmen who have turned into ordinary silver wolves, there are still four who are still alive, and these four can all be engraved on the golden roster.
One of the four is in the demon world, two are in the human world, and one is missing. After discussing with Ao Qi and Luo Qi, Qi Feng decided to divide the troops into three routes, Ao Qi went to the demon world, Qi Feng went to the north of the world, and Luo Qi went to the south of the world, striving to completely eradicate the three wolf kings who were about to fall into the devil in the shortest possible time.
Li Shuyu wanted to go with Qi Feng, but was directly blocked by a sentence of "getting in the way".
"I'll hide as soon as I fight, where will I cause trouble for him. ”
Next to the mountain waterfall in Camel Mountain, Li Shuyu used a makeshift horsehair brush to help Qimad scrub his body, and complained indignantly: "Xuehua'er, do you say?"
I haven't been served like this for a long time, and the Seven Mad is so comfortable that he wants to sleep, so he only squints and answers her lazily: "The immortals or monsters who are about to fall into the devil are all bloodthirsty and crazy people who don't recognize their relatives, and the outbreak of demonic qi may spread to dozens or hundreds of miles, so it's useless for you to hide it." ”
"So powerful?" Li Shuyu suddenly became worried, and asked him nervously: "Isn't Ah Feng very dangerous, if he can't beat him, he won't even have anyone to help him?"
Qimad raised his eyelids and comforted her: "This phoenix has also seen the wind and waves, and it is still a nine-feather phoenix, he is the second in mana, and no one in the pilgrimage palace dares to call it the first, so you should sink your heart into your stomach as a scale." ”
This comfort was quite effective, Li Shuyu gradually calmed down, applied the juice ground with insect repellent herbs to the hair of the Seven Mad and rubbed it carefully, and said to himself: "It's true, he has to shake the Heavenly Palace all his life, and it shouldn't be a problem to beat a demon." ”
A fox and a wolf took a comfortable bath in the waterfall, lay on the big rock and basked in the sun for a while, swallowed a lot of fresh and sweet mountain fruits, and then leisurely returned to the cave on the top of the mountain.
Lilan Jing was sitting with Luo Xi Yuanjun at the entrance of the cave picking out herbs, and when she saw Li Shuyu with her wet hair and a basket of mountain fruits riding on the Seven Mad back, she couldn't help but smile helplessly at the same time.
"Have you been in Huoshan for a long time?" Lilanjing took the mountain fruit in her arms, frowned, and said: "You are now the apprentice of Zixiao Zhenjun, and you are a little immortal with an immortal position, and it is too unruly not to go back for so long." ”
There are many rules and restrictions in the Heavenly Palace, where is it comfortable to run around in the Camel Mountain every day, Li Shuyu doesn't want to go back to the Heavenly Palace as soon as she arrives in the Camel Mountain, and she can't wait to live for several months in one breath. But what Lilanjing said was right, although Zixiao Zhenjun didn't urge her, but it was impossible to say that she didn't return to Zixiao Palace for a long time, so she had to change back to the appearance of a little Taoist child, change into a loose and cumbersome Taoist robe, carry a large basket of camel mountain specialties, and reluctantly return to the Heavenly Palace.
When passing by the gate of heaven, Li Shuyu gave some fruits to the little fairy officials guarding the door, I just wanted to thank them for their care and tea all the time, but I didn't expect that the little fairy officials were extremely moved after receiving the fruits, so they pulled her to sit down at the gate of heaven and chat for a while and drink tea.
"It turns out that Shuyu is a relative of the god of Huoshan Mountain, and we always thought that you were from the pilgrimage palace. Qingluo took a big bite of the fruit and said vaguely: "Now I see that you always feel more kind than before." ”
"What do you mean?" Li Shuyu raised her eyebrows, "Look down on Camel Mountain?"
"Don't dare, I didn't mean that. Qing Luo shook his head again and again, and explained: "The pilgrimage palace is too noble, even the emperor and queen of heaven have to be in awe for three points, not to mention us janitors." I often saw you with Qifeng Shangxian before, and I thought you were a pilgrim palace person, so I didn't dare to talk to you at will, for fear that I would offend the big man if I said something wrong. ”
Qishan Pilgrimage Palace, located above the clouds at the peak of Qishan, is the settlement of the Feng clan, and the current patriarch is Qifeng's father, Qikuan. Qi Kuan's vision is high, and he doesn't like to interact with people and immortals and the demon world, so he rarely appears, and everything in the clan is basically handed over to the young master Qi Feng, and after a long time, people in the Three Realms regard Qi Feng as the patriarch, and his status is slightly higher than that of other immortals of the same generation, such as Ao Qi Luoqi.
"I'm not a phoenix, how can I come out of the Pilgrimage Palace, besides, if I am an immortal of the Pilgrimage Palace, why do I come to the Heavenly Palace to burn the fire. Li Shuyu took a sip of tea, raised her eyebrows and warned them, "Don't bully me just because you know that I am not from the Pilgrimage Palace!"
"What are you talking about!" Qingluo glared at her, and said a little angrily: "Shuyu, how can you think of us as despicable villains who see the wind and rudder!"
"I was wrong, I was wrong. Li Shuyu hurriedly poured him a cup of tea, apologized and said: "It's me who spends the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, don't be angry." Because Ah ...... Qifeng Shangxian always said that I lacked heart and eyes, and asked me to be cautious in everything, so I would say this. But I promise, it's definitely not my truth. ”
"I believe it. Another soldier named Mu Gui played a round and said: "Although the immortals are all noble and powerful, they are all cautious and cautious when they do things, I saw Ao Qi Shangxian reproaching Prince Huanyi, saying that he is not calm and alert enough, if he can't do things well, he will go back to Penglai to practice for another hundred years, otherwise he will only harm the immortals if he takes over the Heavenly Palace in the future." ”
"So strict?"
Li Shuyu was a little surprised, in her opinion, in addition to Huan Yi's unpleasant speech, his temperament was the most calm among the many immortal officials she had ever seen, even Zixiao Zhenjun was sometimes at a loss Six gods and no masters, but she couldn't imagine what Huan Yi was like when he was at a loss. She can identify Huan Yi as a qualified prince, otherwise she would not be respected by Luo Xi Yuanjun and Zixiao Zhenjun like this, and she would not have condescended to eat with these little shrimps in Camel Mountain just for the newlywed heads of the two subordinates, and also put down the shelf and accompanied her, a fire-burning child, to Qingpu River to ask for Wang Ba.
"Don't you know? Ao Qi, the crown prince of the Eastern Dragon King, is a powerful figure, and many martial immortals have to take a detour when they see him. Qingluo wiped his mouth stained with juice with his sleeve, leaned in front of Li Shuyu and lowered his voice and said, "Even the Emperor of Heaven was once his defeated general. ”
"There are many prosperous descendants of the dragon clan, if you don't have any real skills, how can you sit firmly on the throne of this prince for so many years. Mu Hui couldn't help but sigh: "Born in the Shangxian family, it is true that he will become a master as soon as he lands, but he must prosper the clan and protect the Three Realms, and the burden on his shoulders is indeed as heavy as Mount Tai." ”
"Yes. Li Shuyu lowered his eyes and whispered: "I have never heard Qi Feng Shangxian mention it." ”
"That's because the Phoenix Clan is different from the Dragon Clan. Mu Gui stretched out five fingers with his left hand and one finger with his right hand, and explained with Li Shuyu: "The people of the Feng clan are less than one-fifth of the dragon clan, and the bloodline can directly determine the next patriarch, so there is no trouble for many princes of the dragon clan to compete for the crown prince." ”
One fifth? Li Shuyu frowned: "Why is there so much less?"
"You don't know this?" Qingluo was extremely shocked, "Don't you know that the Feng Clan, regardless of male or female, must go through the fire ritual when they become adults?"
Li Shuyu became more and more confused: "Fire bathing ceremony?"
"But isn't it, the adulthood of the dragon clan is a crown ceremony, the adulthood of the unicorn is a horn grinding ceremony, only the phoenix clan, the day of adulthood has to jump the volcano. Those who have insufficient cultivation and impure blood, almost all of them only enter but do not leave, and even if they are lucky enough to come out alive, they are basically seriously injured, and they will not recover if they do not cultivate for hundreds of years. ”
Li Shuyu's heart jumped when she heard this, and she stammered and asked, "That...... And their dependents ......"
"This fire bathing ceremony is like a sieve, in order to screen the purest bloodline of the clan, so Qishan Phoenix never accepts dependents, and does not intermarry with foreign clans. The only marriage in thousands of years, the object is still the same golden unicorn that is rare for thousands of years, do you say that there are many people in his clan...... Oh, by the way, I heard that there is also a marriage with a foreign race, and the marriage object is the princess of the East China Sea, who is also a fairy with a noble bloodline, which is comparable to an ordinary fairy. ”
"That's right!" At the mention of Qilin, Mu Qi suddenly thought of a question, and asked the other soldiers very curiously: "You say, what will happen to the children of Qifeng Shangxian and Luolin Shangxian when they become adults?"
"This eighty percent depends on whose body the child is, if you are lucky, you will follow your mother, of course, you will go to Penglai to be a free fairy in the world, how comfortable you are. If you are lucky enough to almost follow your father, it will be miserable. Qingluo shook his head and said with some sympathy: "Although the identity is noble, the bloodline is not pure, and I don't know if I can come out if I jump into the volcano." ”
After speaking, he probably wanted to be recognized, and he turned his head and asked Li Shuyu: "Shuyu, did you say it?"
Li Shuyu was in a very bad mood, although she didn't expect to marry into the pilgrimage palace, she still hoped that she could be with Qi Feng all the time, and even thought about having children with him in the future. As a result, when I heard these little soldiers say today, she gave birth to a baby, whether it was with her or with Qifeng, it didn't end well. Let her be, the bloodline is low, the mana is not strong, and you have to endure a lot of hardships in the matter of cultivation;
"I don't know. She put the teacup back on the table, got up and said angrily, "I'm going back to Zixiao Palace." ”
Seeing that her face was not good, the soldiers immediately stopped gossiping about the mouth of the immortal and respectfully sent her away.
Seeing her figure disappear in the Heavenly Gate, Qingluo asked Mu Qi with a puzzled face: "Why is she suddenly angry?"
Mu Qi couldn't figure it out, so he had to comfort himself and said, "Maybe I feel that I know too little, and I'm a little embarrassed." ”
The soul peep beast that had been eavesdropping on the conversation in the soul speculum mirror couldn't help it, and rolled its eyes at the two of them.
