Chapter 17, the dragon palace is majestic
"What else?" asked Xu Ke.
"Where are you going?" asked the Void Boy.
"Of course, I went to find my second brother, and I promised the third princess to help my second brother regain the rain magic weapon...... Xu Ke said.
"Don't you want to ask, why do you meet your second brother every time you cross?" the Void Boy asked with a smile again.
Xu Ke scratched his forehead and asked, "Yes, I passed through the Void Gate twice before, no matter what I thought, I saw the second brother, why is this?"
The Void Boy said: "Because of the rain in Chang'an City!"
"Because of the rain in Chang'an City?" Xu Ke puzzled.
The Void Boy smiled: "The rain in Chang'an City is the credit of you and your second brother. You went up to the Void Building this time for the rain, of course, it's your second brother every time you see it!"
With that, the Void Boy picked up the green brush, but instead of drawing circles on the wall, he rounded his arms into the air, opened and closed them and drew circles, and in an instant, nine circles of different sizes appeared in the air. He then raised his pen up and down, vertically and horizontally, and drew five straight lines, and an equilateral pentagonal shape was implicitly deducted in the circle.
"Alright!" the Void Boy took the green pen into his arms, clapped his hands, and smiled. He looked at the Void Gate that rippled slightly in the air, and his expression seemed to be quite proud.
"I went up to the Void Building this time to make it rain, if the rain doesn't come, I won't be able to go up to another level?" Xu Ke asked.
"Of course!" said the Void Boy.
Xu Ke secretly thought to himself, it seems that every floor of this God King Pavilion seems to have a mission. Now that I think about it, the first floor of the Water Moon Building is for me to practice and learn swords. The second floor of the mirror flower building is probably to let me realize the dreams of others and relieve the regrets in my heart. In this third-floor void building, I am here to help the second brother regain the magic weapon and bring rain water.
"Dare to ask the Void Boy, what kind of place is this God King Pavilion? Is there a task that needs to be completed on every floor of it?"
"Yes!" the Void Boy said: "This Divine King Pavilion, you can imagine that it is an extremely fun place! Of course, each floor of the Pavilion has a task waiting for you to complete, but those tasks are also very fun! Every time you complete a task, you can grow physically and mentally, and your ability is also constantly improving, so this way is not interesting? Think about those mortals in the world, how many people dream of entering the Divine King Pavilion once!"
Xu Ke asked again: "What if the task is never completed?
The Void Boy replied, "If you can't complete the mission, you will have to stay in the Divine King Pavilion forever. However, the good thing is that no matter how many years you stay in the cabinet, it is still the day you enter the cabinet when you go out. You don't have to worry about birth, old age, sickness and death, no matter how many years you stay in the cabinet, you will always be the same ...... as you are today."
"Okay!" Xu Ke faced the huge void gate that rippled in the air, took eight steps back, and was about to make a beautiful sprint, but he heard the void boy laugh again:
"This Void Gate is not in the wall, so why do you rush in?
"That's right!" Xu Ke nodded, walked forward slowly, and was about to step into the door of the void, when the boy behind him reminded again:
"This time it may be a long journey through time and space, are you ready?"
"I've already dreamed such a long time on Bibo Island, what could be longer than it?" Xu Ke smiled and stepped through the void gate.
......
After passing through, Xu Ke stood in a soft grass, but the scene in front of him made him suddenly feel like he was back in a dream. He saw that he was standing on an island at this time, with mountains and the sun in the distance, and grass and trees in the sky...... When I turned around, I saw the boundless water, and the sea breeze came in gusts, rolling up waves and lapping against the reef on the shore.
"Bibo Island?" Xu Ke scratched his forehead, unconsciously puzzled.
Could it be that I have returned to Bibo Island at this time, or have I never left Bibo Island?
Could it be that I am still in Sister Hu's dream at this time? Then her dream is too long, right?
Although Xu Ke felt that this was unlikely, since he entered the Divine King Pavilion, he had experienced all kinds of things that were impossible before. Now he only feels that everything in the world is impossible......
Xu Ke turned around to look for it, wanting to see if there was still the village on the island where he lived with Hu Yiyi, but he didn't even find a tile house. He looked around carefully, and realized that this place was quite different from the "Blue Wave Island" in his previous dream. Although it is also a seaside, and there are mountains and trees on the island, the scenery is ordinary, and it is far from the beautiful scenery in the dreamland.
At this time, Xu Ke heard a voice sounding in the distance, as if someone was shouting to him: "Big brother...... Big brother, you're here!"
Xu Ke followed the sound and walked quickly to the beach, only to see a fat man standing on the beach, carrying a three-toothed nail rake on his shoulder, which happened to be his second brother Zhu Wucang.
"Second brother, you're here too!" Xu Ke strode forward, walked to Zhu Wuneng's side, hugged his broad shoulders, and said with a smile.
He looked at his second brother intently, and saw that Zhu Wuneng at this time was no longer the sloppy appearance he had when he first met. At this time, Zhu Wuneng was wearing a scarf, foundation boots, and a dark cyan Suzhou embroidered robe, with white lips and red lips, bright eyes and bright teeth, and he looked chic and handsome. In addition to being still very obese, he is already beautiful and energetic.
Zhu Wuneng said: "I've been waiting for you for a long time!" He saw the "huge lotus leaf" on the top of Xu Ke's head, and couldn't help but be curious: "Big brother, what are you doing with a lotus leaf on your head?"
"Ahem! Don't mention it! My green hat, the second brother must not touch it!" Xu Ke waved his hand again and again.
"Oh!" Zhu Wuneng wanted to step forward, grabbed the "lotus leaf hat" and came over to take a look, but when he heard Xu Ke say this, he had to give up.
"How did the second brother know that I would come here?" Xu Ke asked again.
"It was Long Er who told me, she and the pavilion master Bai Wufang, they are the same clan. She also knows some of Bai Wuming's spells, so she can naturally sense you. Zhu said incompetently.
"The old white pavilion master and the third princess are of the same clan? Second brother, how did you and the third princess meet? After you left Chang'an that day, did you see the third princess in the Dragon King Temple outside the city? Second brother ......" Xu Ke hadn't seen Zhu Wuneng for a long time, and when he was overjoyed, he threw out many questions.
"Ahem, big brother, time is urgent!Let's go to the sea first!" Zhu Wuneng waved his hand, and then admonished: "Big brother, wait a minute, after I split the seawater, you just need to pull me tightly, you don't have to worry about being submerged by the sea, remember!"
"Okay, big brother remembered!" Xu Ke looked at the second brother in front of him and couldn't help but look approving. At this moment, Zhu Wucan, although he has only been separated from him for less than half a year, his speech is clear, his thinking is quick, his gait is calm, and his face is calm.
"That's about ...... It's all the credit of the third princess, right?" Xu Ke sighed secretly, and felt a lot of emotion about the power of love in the legend.
Zhu Wuneng raised the three-toothed nail rake, and shouted "Open!" in his mouth, "Open!" The volley slashed into the sea, and the surging sea water he saw actually parted to both sides, revealing a huge gap in the middle. Zhu Wuneng pulled Xu Ke's left hand, and the two jumped into the sea and rushed to the bottom of the sea......
Xu Ke took Zhu Wucan's hand and walked quickly through the seawater, the sea water was clear and warm, and it automatically separated every time he came to Xu Ke's side. Xu Ke saw all kinds of large and small fish constantly rushing by, the big giant whale was 100 feet long, and the small red fish was less than two inches. From time to time, various shellfish, starfish, giant tortoises, jellyfish and other sea creatures constantly swim past him. The seaweeds of different colors stretched out in the ocean current, surging up and down with the ups and downs of the sea, like the long coat of a fairy, dancing...... This colorful world in the sea makes Xu Ke's heart happy and imaginative.
As Xu Ke and Zhu Wuneng continued to go deeper into the seawater, it only took a moment for the two to enter a dark underwater world. Xu Ke saw that there were glowing jellyfish floating slowly around him, and occasionally a long eel flashed with electric light, and the bright light of the stars dotted the bottom of the sea like a dream......
"It's here!" Xu Ke suddenly felt that his feet had landed, and he had already gone down to the bottom of the sea. I saw that hundreds of feet ahead, a large piece of light suddenly flashed.
Zhu Wuneng pulled Xu Ke towards the light, where a huge palace complex stood. After Xu Ke approached, he looked up and saw a huge gold plaque at the front door, with three big characters "Crystal Palace" written on it.
Xu Ke saw that the crystal palace was towering and majestic, covering a wide area, the entire palace group seemed to be built of crystal, the beams of the houses were all glazed, and the corridors of the buildings were shining.
"Ao Guang, my old Zhu is here!" Zhu Wuneng strode into the crystal palace. Seeing Zhu Wuneng striding over, the patrol Yaksha avoided it from a distance, and the shrimp soldiers and crab generals in front of the door did not dare to stop it, so they hurriedly went inside to report.
After Xu Ke followed Zhu Wuneng into the third gatehouse in the palace, he saw a man less than four feet tall with a small head and short hands slowly stepping out.
"Return to the boss?" Xu Ke couldn't help but call. The person with short hands was the boss Gui that Xu Ke had just seen when he was crossing.
"Gui has seen Xu Gongzi!" "Gui Boss also bowed to Xu Ke.
Xu Ke hurriedly returned the salute, and he saw that the boss at this time was wearing a green jade crown and a green robe, but his back was no longer hidden, but a huge green turtle back was exposed.
At this time, the boss in front of him, who was dressed in green clothes and green back, and Xu Ke, who was wearing a green hat, faced each other, but they were also very interesting.
"Is Ao Guang inside?" Zhu Wuneng didn't wait for the boss to introduce him, so he stepped inside.
"The Dragon King is inside, Tianpeng, Xu Gongzi, please!" Boss Gui hurriedly followed Zhu Wuneng into the room. However, after all, the steps of the return were too small, no matter how hurried he went, he still fell far behind Zhu Wuneng.
Xu Ke followed into the entrance building, but saw that there was a large hall inside, with huge pillars in the hall, and coral, agate and various pearl treasures dotted next to it. In the center of the hall stands a row of jade steps, and on top of the jade steps, there is a golden dragon chair. The whole hall is resplendent and dazzling, just like the palace on earth......
At this time, there was an old man in a black robe sitting with his head held high in the dragon chair of the Golden Palace. The old man was full of white hair, his eyes were burning and shining, his face was not angry and arrogant, and the ends of his forehead were like the three princesses, with two fleshy horns. However, the flesh horns of the black-robed old man were thick and long, growing obliquely on the top of his head, adding a bit of majesty to the old man's already imposing head and face.
"You rammer! You are becoming more and more presumptuous! In the palace of this king, you dare to call this king by his name!" The old man in black robe couldn't help but say angrily when he saw Zhu Wuneng breaking into the palace.
"If you don't call you Ao Guang, then call you an old dragon, or a black dragon?" Zhu Wuneng asked rhetorically. At this moment, he stood in the middle of the main hall with a three-toothed nail rake on his shoulder, walking around at will, and not saluting.
"You, you're angry with me!" The old man in the black robe was naturally Ao Guang, and when he saw Zhu Wuneng's disrespectful words and rude manners, he couldn't help but stand up from the dragon chair Huo Ran and went straight to Zhu Wucang.
"The Dragon King is angry, the Dragon King please be angry!" Zhu Wuneng was the boss who could rush behind him, and he was anxious when he saw this
Hurriedly walked forward, stopped the angry Dragon King of the East China Sea, Ao Guang, and tried his best to persuade: "Nian lost the treasure weapon at this time in Tiancang, and his mind is not fully opened, you should spare him this time!"
"I said Ao Guang, you are not too old! Why are you still so angry? This puddle of water in the East China Sea still can't extinguish this fire in your heart! My old Zhu was in the Heavenly Court back then, and he was also a marshal of Tianpeng, in charge of 100,000 heavenly soldiers, and he was at the same level as you in terms of rank and rank! Besides, ...... Now my old Zhu has come from afar to help you recapture the magic weapon, if you don't give a sip of water to drink, forget it, and still put up a fight with me here, what kind of stinky shelf are you! If you make my old Zhu unhappy, give you a few nail rakes, and be careful to beat you, the shrimp soldiers and crab generals, to the surface of the sea......" Zhu Wuneng didn't give the old dragon king face at all, and he kept babbling there.
"You, you stinky pig!" Ao Guang was so angry that his face turned red, his beard trembled, he stretched out his fist and rushed towards Zhu Wuneng, seeing that Boss Gui couldn't stop him......
"Brother Zhu, don't be rude to my father!" walked in beside the hall a beautiful and peerless girl, who was Zhu Wucan's confidante and the third princess.
Seeing that the third princess suddenly came, Zhu Wuyi hurriedly changed his humble face, bowed to the old dragon king and said: "Yes, yes, yes!
Ao Guangwu said angrily: "Who recognizes you as a son-in-law? You stupid pig! You know how to eat and eat all day long! When you finish eating, you will sleep and sleep! I have built a nail rake for you, and I have asked you to go and snatch back the 'Shooting Bowl' for this king, not for you to come to my Dragon Palace!"
Zhu Wuneng hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, Lao Zhu's words just now are offended, and he is offended, and the Dragon King is angry!"
The third princess also stepped forward to persuade: "Daddy, Brother Zhu came here for us after all, don't be angry with him......!
Ao Guang was relieved at this time, but he did not return to the dragon chair on the jade steps to sit down, but found a chair at random and sat down, facing Zhu Wuneng and asked:
"You've fought with that Yaqi twice, and you haven't won once, this time, what good idea have you come up with?"
Zhu Wuneng hurriedly said: "This time is different, with my eldest brother to help!" After that, Zhu Wuneng turned around and beckoned to Xu Ke again: "Big brother, come and meet the Dragon King!"
Xu Ke hurriedly strode forward, bowed to Ao Guang to the end, bowed and saluted: "Under Xu Ke, I have seen the Dragon King!"
Ao Guang looked at Xu Ke coldly, waved his hand, and said, "No courtesy, you all sit down! Prime Minister Gui, go get them two chairs and two cups of tea!"
The "return to the boss" is naturally the prime minister of the turtle. Hearing the words of the Dragon King, Prime Minister Gui Cheng hurriedly agreed, he immediately walked out of the main hall, ordered the two shrimp soldiers to move the chairs, a few things, and served tea and snacks for Xu Ke and Zhu Wuneng.
"That cuckold on your head...... What is it?" Ao Guang pointed to the lotus leaf on the top of Xu Ke's head and asked.
"This ...... It's just a hat, hehe!" Xu Ke replied with a smile.
The third princess next to her whispered a few words to Lao Wang, and Ao Guang nodded and said, "Oh...... So that's what happened!" After a pause, Ao Guang asked Zhu Wuneng again:
"Tianpeng, do you think that with the addition of such a mortal, you will be able to win against Yaqi?"
Zhu Wuneng poked out the Jingxing pot from his arms and replied, "Dragon King, look at it, my old Zhu still has this treasure!"
Ao Guang saw that the demon refining pot was turquoise all over, and the whole body of the pot was glowing with clear and moist brilliance, he couldn't help but have a bright eye, and then it quickly dimmed again, he sighed: "This demon refining pot is a good treasure! It's a pity that the humane method of Kaiguang is limited, and it has not been able to recover all its spiritual power, so it only got a three-star magic weapon, and it has not reached the realm of a four-star spiritual weapon!"
Xu Ke thought to himself, and suddenly remembered the words of the Dragon King, which were exactly the same as what Yulu Weng said that day in the Yushan Grassland. However, I never thought that Yu Lu Weng was already like an old immortal, and in the mouth of today's dragon king, he actually said that he was "limited in Taoism"! Moreover, his Kunwu sword only got a "one-star grass weapon", and there are very few people who can reach the "three-star magic weapon", so why should the dragon king say a pity?
At this time, I heard Zhu Wuneng disapproving and said: "Although I fought with that Baqi twice before, it was all because my old Zhu was careless, this time, I have the help of my eldest brother, and there is another treasure in my hand, I don't believe that I can't control that monster?!"
The Dragon King shook his head, looked at Zhu Wuneng, and then at Xu Ke, and suddenly asked, "By the way, did you give my piece of jade to Li Chunfeng?"
Xu Ke knew that what the Dragon King was talking about must be the East China Sea Spirit Stone, so he replied: "Back to the Dragon King, I have already given the East China Sea Spirit Stone to Master Li Guan of Xuandu Temple." ”
Ao Guang laughed dryly twice, and said to himself: "According to today's hour, you are still on the road to Jishan!
Ao Guang looked at Zhu Wuneng again, and said impatiently: "You have a treasure, and there is one more person, what are you waiting for at the moment, why don't you hurry up and fight monsters?!"
Zhu Wuneng touched his bulging belly and said with a smile: "Uh...... This, old dragon king, you also said just now, my Jingxing pot has not been able to recover all its spiritual power, can you give another good blade to take advantage of?"
Ao Guang's eyes widened, and he said, "Didn't I already give you a three-toothed nail rake? That's a thousand-year-old cold iron! What else do you want? I can't cast your 'Shangbaoqin Golden Rake'!"
Zhu Wuneng smiled and pleaded: "My Shangbaoqin Golden Rake is made by Lao Jun with Divine Ice Iron, and I will ask him for it next time." Okay Taishan, right now, can you give us the 'Dinghai God Needle'?"
When Ao Guang heard this, he almost fell off the chair, his eyes widened, and he said in surprise:
"What? you still want to fix the Poseidon Needle!"
