Chapter 280: The Miracle of Ice and Fire
Have you ever seen the rolling lava flowing into the frozen earth?
Standing on the deck, looking at the strange and magnificent scene from afar, Gu Chuanxia felt as if he was dreaming. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
If it weren't for Zhang Yongsi's guidance, it would have been impossible to pass through the dense and frequent time wave area and enter such a strange scene.
The ship glided rapidly on the ice. The sky cracked, and the lava flowed down like a waterfall. Then the surrounding ice sheet melted, turning into a circle of water ripples.
At the intersection of ice and fire, there is always smoke, steam, and rainbows, and many large and small rainbows are intertwined, rendering the entire world of ice and fire in a dreamy color.
In the middle of this world where ice and fire meet, there is an island that looks like a fairyland.
The island is covered with green vegetation and is home to a variety of strange creatures.
The boat arrived on the shore, and Gu Chuanxia followed Zhang Yongsi to the land of Ice and Fire Island.
The ground was green, but there was a goose-feather snow overhead, and when it fell to the ground, it quickly melted, moistening the ground with constant heat.
There is both the romance of winter and the vitality of summer, and people have to sigh at the miracle of the Creator, who gave birth to such a magical land.
Zhang Wuji's family is not the only one on Ice and Fire Island.
Behind the forests and hills is a basin that is like spring all year round, and in the vast waves of golden wheat, many people are diligently harvesting the fruits of their hard work in the fields, with smiles on their faces. If there is any difference between them and real farmers, it is that these people are more or less proficient in martial arts, maybe not very strong, and much stronger than ordinary farmers.
These people were originally some Mingjiao members who were willing to follow Zhang Wuji to retreat, some of the domestic slaves who belonged to Zhao Min, and many disciples of the Emei faction who returned to seclusion lived here, they multiplied here, and they had passed several generations, and then gradually opened up the barriers, merged into a whole, and no longer separated from each other.
Zhang Yongsi summoned an old man who was once a disciple of the Emei faction and asked, "Are there guests on the island?"
The old man saw Zhang Yongsi and hurriedly saluted, and then said, "Yes!"
Zhang Yongsi's complexion remained unchanged, but his breath changed slightly, obviously a little nervous.
"But from Wudang Mountain?" Zhang Yongsi asked.
The old man said: "No, they are all guests entertained by the eldest prince, listening to the language they speak, and the accent of Chinese dialect, it should be Mongolian, but those people are menacing, and they open their mouths and say that they want the second lady to come out and confess, and the second miss... ”
"Got it!, let's get busy!" Zhang Yongsi nodded, his breath stabilized, and his expression was thoughtful.
"Why! I see that you have more than one problem, can you ask me to help you?" asked Gu Chuanxia.
Zhang Yongsi said lightly: "No need! If a little thing can repay the favor, what you think is too simple." ”
Gu Chuanxia said: "The people sent by the Yuan Dynasty court to trouble you shouldn't be a simple thing, are you sure this is a trivial matter?"
The court of the Yuan Dynasty was not the court of the Ming Dynasty, with a vast territory, deep roots and full heritage. If it weren't for the fact that Zhang Wuji still had the Wudang faction behind him and Zhang Laodao to support him, I am afraid that he would not only send people to ask for the guilt, but directly send troops to attack Ice and Fire Island.
"It's also strange! You killed the eldest prince of Yuanting, that was a few years ago. I'm only here to ask for the guilt now... Gu Chuanxia muttered that the deceased was testing Zhang Yongsi.
Zhang Yongsi said: "The current Yuan Emperor is the third prince of the previous Yuan Emperor, and I killed the eldest prince, which is actually equivalent to doing him a big favor and solving the competitors." In the past few years, he has been fighting for power and profit, and now he has sat a little more stable, but he doesn't know what to use this excuse to provoke. Let's go and take a look, this is the island of ice and fire, and they don't dare to make a mistake. ”
Passing through the wheat field, there is a strange mountain that shows the two colors of ice and fire, the mountain stone is hard, like a whole, and from a distance, it looks more like a huge two-color jade.
On top of this strange mountain, a huge stone gate was excavated, and on both sides of the stone gate were eight small doors, only two people high.
Outside the huge stone gate, there is a deep arc-shaped scratch on the ground, and the color is very new.
"It is really strange that Zhang Dagongzi actually opened the main gate for those Mongolians. Sure enough, blood is thicker than water!" Zhang Yongsi said with a sneer.
"Someone, open the front door for me!" Zhang Yongsi scolded.
A window opened in the rock wall, and two men in earth-gray robes poked their heads out.
"It's Miss Two! Miss Two is back!"
"Second Miss, do you really want to open the main door?"
"Less nonsense! Hurry up and open the door. ”
"Okay! I'll wait until I turn on the mechanism. ”
The two of them shrank back at the same time, and then after a few breaths, a loud roar was heard. It's like the whole mountain has exploded.
And a flash of light appeared, and the huge main door opened violently to both sides.
Inside the gate is a huge passage that leads to the belly of the mountain.
The fiery red rock walls on both sides naturally emit light and heat, illuminating the entire corridor.
The ground was paved with a hint of cold masonry, neutralizing the heat in the passage.
Following Zhang Yongsi into the passage, Gu Chuanxia actually smelled a trace of freshness from the passage, and the air was not dull at all, obviously there was something else in the belly of the mountain.
At the end of the passage is a hall full of alien flavors.
The hall is surrounded by flowers and plants, while the dome is arc-shaped and translucent. There was a faint glimmer of light shining through the translucent dome, enveloping the entire hall in light. Although you are in the middle of the mountain, it does not give people a gloomy feeling.
And in the middle of the hall, on both sides of the long table, about twenty rough men dressed in strange clothes, with large and small braids tied on their heads, and huge gems of various colors were hung on the braids. At this moment, the big men were drinking and eating, the cups and plates on the table were in a mess, and the chairs around them were all overturned. Food scraps and waste are thrown everywhere.
A strange smell mixed with body odor and mutton smell came from afar, and what was even more uncomfortable was that this strange smell was forcibly covered by this group of big men with a strong aromatherapy smell, and the strange smell and fragrance were mixed together, and the smell was really ********.
With the rise of eating, a few big men simply climbed directly onto the table, abandoning chopsticks, spoons, knives and forks, and directly grabbed the food on the table with their hands, and their mouths were full of oil.
Zhang Yongsi frowned, and Gu Chuanxia also felt incredible.
"These people should have some status in the Yuan Court, how can they be so unbearable?" said Gu Chuanxia.
Zhang Yongsi said: "This is not unusual, if you know that the emperor of the Yuan Court still likes to live in a splendid tent, and then roast mutton at the door of the tent to eat, it will not be unusual." This is their characteristic, they are also alien rulers, which is different from the gradual integration of Chinese culture in the Qing Dynasty. The people of the Yuan Dynasty preferred to destroy all civilizations that did not belong to them in a barbaric way, and then bring everything more advanced back to the same level as them. ”
"Turn farmland into pasture, turn fixed villages into mobile tents, and make the whole world their pasture... ”
