Chapter 4: Falling Sunset
To the east and south of Shenzhou, the land is fertile, the mountains and rivers are vast, the wind and rain are smooth, and it is the place where human beings originated. Ancestors worked here, sowed seeds, and multiplied. Descendants mostly continue the life of their ancestors, and there are extraordinary people who open up the territory and divide the land of the human race into Kyushu, which is the foundation of the prosperity of the human race. Outside of Kyushu, there are still many vast, but compared to the land of Kyushu, there are many poor mountains and bad waters, the land is barren, the people are inaccessible, and there are many fierce beasts, but there are also large or small clans that have not been out for generations, isolated from the world.
And under the painstaking study of countless generations, the method of cultivation has gradually flourished. It's just that the path to immortality is illusory, and there is no one in ten thousand who has achieved cultivation. And people's hearts are not ancient, and there are many battles on the path of cultivation, and they are no longer simple. Gradually, according to this cultivation method and the like, there will be factional disputes, and there will be different classifications.
To the west of Kyushu, there is an endless mountain range called the Rakuka Mountains. The Luoxia Mountains connect the north and south, like a barrier, and sit on the west side. There are hundreds of peaks in the mountains, but the three largest ones are the ones to the north. These three mountains form the trend of three stars and the moon, firmly surrounding one of the inner basins.
To the west of the Luoxia Mountains, the dense forests are thick, the mountains and rocks are terrifying, and it is a desolate scene.
The terrain of the mountain range is steep, and the three mountains guard the only entrance. In addition, if you want to go to the west, you can only climb over this majestic mountain, which is extremely dangerous.
If it is not said that this mountain is famous for its steep terrain, then only the Luoxia Sect on the three mountains can be talked about.
The Luoxia Sect has been inherited since ancient times, and it is one of the four great sects in the world, and the cultivation methods in the door are all passed down from the sages of the ancient people. However, there have been many twists and turns along the way. It is rumored that Qingxiazi, the founder of the Luoxia Sect, is a wandering Fangsan who has traveled all over the land of today's Kyushu, wanting to find the cultivation method of immortality. If this ethereal chance could have been realized so easily, the human race would have already become the only one in the world. Qingxiazi searched all over Kyushu and realized something, but she still couldn't figure out where her cultivation path was. What's more, because there were very few Dharma at that time, most of the practitioners were hidden and there were no one to ask.
In desperation, Qingxiazi traveled all the way west and came to the Luoxia Mountains. Perhaps it was in the early years that he stepped on the mountains and waded through the waters, and had a faint sense of affinity for the mountains and rivers, or perhaps there was a providence in the dark, on the day when Qingxiazi came to the Luoxia Mountains, the withered grass and trees all over the mountains were actually budding and blooming in this cold winter month.
Qingxiazi was amazed, and saw the scenery of the three mountains reflecting the moon in the distance at a glance, and walked away without hesitation.
At that time, the mountain range was not well known to Kyushu, and it was sparsely populated and full of fierce beasts. But the strange thing is that the tiger and leopard in the mountains seem to ignore this Qingxiazi. Unimpeded, after three days and three nights, Qingxiazi finally stepped into these three mountains.
The three mountains are majestic and magnificent, and the strange rocks are craggy, like a stroke of genius. The mountain peaks are straight into the clouds, and the big rivers in the mountains are rushing, which is like a ghostly workmanship.
Qingxiazi thought that she had found a peerless treasure land, and she couldn't help but feel shaken at that time, and walked up the mountain along the middle mountain road.
Before we were halfway there, the mountain road came to an abrupt end. In fact, the mountain road is said to be a mountain road, but it is just a small road that has been trampled on by ordinary people for a long time and gradually formed. This is the ordinary time of the hunters in the villages below the mountain to hunt, and over time they have walked out of such a road. Further up, even those villagers did not dare to go up. It is rumored that there are immortals on the top of the mountain to meditate and enlighten the Tao, and the occasional storms, rains, lightning and thunder on weekdays are even more passed down by the villagers as Tianwei.
Qingxiazi has a strong heart, which can be known from his visit to Kyushu. At this time, when you encounter such a strange place, how can you give up.
He identified the direction of the top of the mountain, and finally set foot on the mountain five days later, overcoming all the thorns and thorns along the way, and his robe had already been torn and tattered.
Rao is this mountain looks wonderful from a distance, extremely steep and abnormal, but on the top of this peak is smooth and flat, plain, not to mention immortals, even half a beast and a bird have not been seen. In a huge area, the only thing that can be seen is a huge boulder that is a foot high.
The whole body of the boulder is blue, which is incompatible with the yellow mountain stone at the peak, and it seems to be hit by an unknown number of thunder and lightning, and a deep or shallow ravine is all over it.
Qingxiazi found a cave under the boulder, and he didn't know where it led, and his heart couldn't help but "thump", and a vague inspiration hit his heart.
After a long time, he made up his mind to be ruthless, just to be able to cultivate the method of immortality with one fight, and entered the cave.
It took half a year to enter the cave, until another night of thunderstorms, the wind on the top of the mountain was gusting, lightning and thunder, and the hole under the boulder shook with a "boom", as if there was a fog floating out of the hole.
A figure walked out slowly, with joy on his face, but with a sense of amazement, and muttered:
"Do you have only ten years of life to live......
The figure was in the heavy rain, with long hair up to his waist, and a tattered robe, he was Qingxiazi!
With that, he got up and went down the mountain, and his figure seemed much faster than before. If you look closely, it looks like an immortal volley!
After Qingxiazi descended the mountain, she passed through the Luoxia Mountains and continued to the west. Along the way, the beasts roared, the birds chirped, and Qingxiazi shouted angrily: "Just a bad beast, dare to hurt me?"
I don't know where Qingxiazi went, and it took another half a year to rush back.
When she came back, Qingxiazi had blood at the corners of her mouth, her long hair was scattered, and she looked like crazy, but her eyes were bright and the corners of her mouth were smiling. Turning his head and glancing behind him, he didn't care about the embarrassed appearance at the moment, and walked towards the top of the mountain.
Behind him, a black shadow was as tall as a mountain peak, and let out bursts of rage. Looking at the three majestic mountains, the black shadow let out a series of roars, and it retreated unwillingly.
Qingxiazi returned to the mountain peak and entered the cave again. This time, he stayed in the cave for almost three months.
Until ninety-nine eighty-one days, the sun was shining brightly, but the sky suddenly darkened, as if night had fallen. After a while, I saw a bright moon rising from the other side, echoing the scorching sun, surrounded by stars, and gray pillars of light came out from the mouth of the cave, shooting straight into the sky!
In an instant, the wind and clouds changed color, Shenzhou shook, and I don't know how many strange places, there were countless eyes looking at the sky vision, frightened.
After a long time, the sky was clear again, and the scorching sun disappeared, and it was late at night!
With a "boom", I saw the green glow floating out of the mouth of the cave, holding the dust, and the purple gas lingered, as if it had become an immortal.
After Qingxiazi came out of the mountain, she used her magic power to move the mountains and rivers on both sides for a hundred miles, leaving a passage. Then he opened the sect at the peak of his immortal enlightenment, called Luoxia Sect, opened the mountain gate widely, and left the incense of future generations. Qingxiazi is called Qingxia Sanren, and later generations are grateful for Qingxiazi's contribution and are honored as "Qingxia Zhenren".
In this way, the Luoxia Mountains are really lively. Countless people who have been unable to practice the way have worshiped under the Qingxia real person to learn the method of cultivation. The prosperity of the Luoxia Sect has made the villagers under the mountain rich. Countless villagers are grateful for the kindness of real people, erect white jade statues in the ancestral hall of the village, and worship incense day and night.
Although Qingxia Zhenren has achieved cultivation, it seems that she has not yet broken free from the shackles of life and death. He only had three disciples to serve in his life, and the rest were all from the Luoxia Sect. A hundred years later, he left a letter with a few words on it, which was passed on to his disciples, and then disappeared.
Qingxia is a real fairy, I don't know where it went, or it has become a piece of loess. However, the Luoxia Sect is still prosperous, and the three disciples have devoted themselves to cultivation, and they have also achieved success in cultivating the Tao, and they are famous all over the world, and there is a faint trend of being the head of Kyushu.
However, the Luoxia Sect is in a corner and has stricter requirements for its disciples, so it has no enemies. At this time, on Kyushu, seeing that Qingxia Zhenren built a sect to benefit future generations, many strange people came out one after another, and even more learned from Qingxia Zhenren, established a sect, and passed on the method of cultivation to future generations.
For a time, there were many sects in Kyushu, and it was inevitable that there would be chaos and fighting, revenge and fighting, and chaos. This scene lasted for ten years, countless large and small sects were destroyed, and the cultivation method was lost. But there are also sects that have risen and become powerful, and they have become prosperous holy places.
In the end, in this troubled era, three sects that rose to the hearts of the people: Xuanxin Pavilion, Wufangmen and Thunder Valley.
The three major sects are located in Kyushu, which is much better than the place where Qingxia Zhenren opened the sect at that time, and it didn't take a few years for Ding to prosper and catch up with the momentum of the Luoxia Sect. Today, these three major sects, together with the Luoxia Sect, are known as the "Four Great Sects" in the world.
......
Luoxia Sect, under the Luoxia Mountains, there is a quaint mountain village, there is a stream in the north of the village, which is a tributary of the big river "Wuding" River in the Luoxia Mountains, so it is called Wuding Village. This village has existed since the time when Luoxia Zhenren did not cultivate the Tao, and it is a small village native to Luoxia Mountain, with a population of more than 100 in the village, and generations have multiplied again.
Since Luoxia Zhenren opened the mountain gate, there has been an endless stream of people trying to practice, which has also added a lot of vitality to this uncertain village. Fortunately, there is a prosperous town not far from Wuding Village, which was opened up and built by the Luoxia Sect, and the name is naturally called Luoxia Town. Although Luoxia Town is not as good as the big cities in the interior of Kyushu, it is also a rare prosperous place in this northwest frontier and occupies the convenient location of the western pass.
In this way, Wuding Village still maintains the simple appearance of folk customs, most of the outsiders settle down in Luoxia Town, and occasionally there are three or two street foot traders to come to the village to shout and sell, but also bring a lot of convenience to the villagers.
Two years ago, three people came to Wuding Village. These three people were really a little strange, an old man in his fifties and sixties, with a wrinkled face. Behind him was a young man of less than twenty years old, and this young man was carrying a child of about five or six years old.
The three of them looked like they were in the dust, but the villagers didn't seem to be surprised. Luoxia Sect is famous, and I don't know how many people have been famous over the years, and the three people in front of them are afraid that they also want to go up the mountain to seek the method of cultivating immortals.
It's just that the old man seemed to have another intention, and asked the village chief's house with a smile on his face, and took the eldest and the younger two people over.
Then, the old man did not know what to say to the village chief, and after taking out a lot of soft things with silver patterns and handing them to the village chief, he took the young man and the boy to live in the village.
