Chapter 4: Sunken Pool
Since the opening of Lingshan, after tens of thousands of years, there are only two people who have been punished to Shenbi Pond and think about it, one is the patriarch of the sect, Dongfang Tian, and the other is Mo Xiao.
Ten thousand years ago, Dongfang Tianshu realized the Nine Heavens Immortal Formula, because it was difficult to control the powerful mana for a while, he slaughtered many birds and beasts, and the mountains were stained with blood. He felt deeply guilty and punished himself for facing the wall for a hundred years to comfort the dead birds and beasts.
Shenbi Lake is located in the deepest part of Lingshan, the mountains are closed, to the yin to the cold, the cold is incomparable. What's even more terrifying is that the sinking pool is connected to the ground, which is bottomless, and there are often hurricanes and terrifying waves, which is very terrifying.
Mo Xiao hurried from Tianji Pavilion, climbed the mountain for a long time, and arrived at Shenbi Lake in the evening. A chill hit, which made him shiver when he was originally thinly dressed, and no one mentioned the extreme cold here when he came, so he only brought a thin quilt and a small amount of clothing.
Looking at the cave covered with moss and weeds, as well as the stone beds and stone benches soaked by the pool water, Mo Xiao was stunned for a moment, took off his shoes, rolled up the sleeves of his trousers, and began to clean the cave.
After more than ten years of cleaning, the cleaning skills have been perfected, and in less than an hour, the cave ** has a new look, and there is no trace of desolation.
As night fell, the cave ** gradually brightened, which surprised Mo Xiao. After searching for a while, I found that on the top of the cave, there was a huge night pearl, which should be the masterpiece of the ancestor of the Kai sect ten thousand years ago.
At this time, his abdomen began to haunt and scream vigorously, Mo Xiao thought that he had not eaten food for a day, and opened his backpack, which contained the pastries and steamed buns that his senior brother stuffed in before leaving.
At night in Shenbitan, there was a strong wind, which blew his face painfully, coupled with the invasion of the cold air, Mo Xiao, who had cultivated to a relatively shallow level, shivered, wrapped in a thin quilt and curled up in the corner, while gnawing on the cold steamed buns, while thinking about how to keep out the cold.
Here, sunlight is scarce, trees are withered, and mountain weeds are soaked in water droplets from the damp ground, which cannot be ignited.
Mo Xiao smiled bitterly, and said in his heart: I'm afraid I'm going to freeze to death here, haha, sad, ridiculous...... If you don't care, a cheap life, just die like this, but you can't bear the expectations of the master, the hope of Senior Sister Qing, and you can't contribute to Lingshan, and you are really unwilling in your heart!
The wind outside the cave seemed to be deliberately against it, blowing even more fiercely, mixed with the pool water blowing into the cave, causing a layer of frost on the already frozen Mo Xiao's body.
Gradually, it seemed that the surroundings quieted down, the wind became quieter and quieter, the cold gradually disappeared, and the body began to warm up and become more and more comfortable. Mo Xiao's eyes appeared in front of the scene where his master taught him to walk when he was a child, the scene of Yan Siqing chasing and playing with him, and the scene of the sun shining in Lingshan...... Gradually, everything began to blur again, and he gradually lost consciousness, like an ice sculpture, silently frozen.
ยท
"Mo Xiao, Mo Xiao, where are you?" Yan Siqing's voice came from afar, "It's too windy here, I can see everything, come and pick me up!"
After calling for a moment, but Mo Xiao didn't respond, Yan Siqing's heart tightened and she quickened her pace. Soon, she came to the cave, and when she saw Mo Xiao frozen in the corner like an ice sculpture, she stumbled and fell to the ground, shouting as she crawled: "Mo Xiao! Mo Xiao! You can't die!
Holding Mo Xiao's body, an extremely cold breath hit, Yan Siqing's heart almost jumped out of his chest, so cold, don't say that Mo Xiao, who is still shallow in cultivation, can't even last half a moment himself.
She held back her tears, put her hands on Mo Xiao's chest, poured strands of heat into his body, and kept silently saying in her heart: Mo Xiao, I don't allow you to die! I won't allow you to die! If you die, I will split this mountain and sink this pool!
The frost around Mo Xiao turned into water droplets and flowed down, soaking the ground, the original purple lips gradually returned to blood, and he opened his eyes in a trance, and when he saw Yan Siqing, he took a deep breath, "Senior Sister Qing, are you here to save me?"
At this time, Yan Siqing's tears fell big drops, hugged Mo Xiao tightly, and cried loudly: "Dead Mo Xiao, stinky Mo Xiao, if I don't arrive in time, you and I will be separated by yin and yang! How can you fulfill your promise to me? You pig head, why are you so stupid, you don't bring warm clothes when you come!"
Mo Xiao breathed a sigh of relief and smiled faintly, "If Mo Xiao dies, he will definitely turn into a soul and come to the Heavenly Rank to accompany Senior Sister......"
Yan Siqingyu covered his mouth with her hand, her face full of anger, "You can't die without my consent! If one day danger comes, endangering my life, you will also take me to die......"
Speaking of this, Yan Siqing's cheeks flushed, she pushed Mo Xiao away, quickly retreated, and stood up, "I...... I mean...... You...... You have to keep your promise and not die before me!"
Mo Xiao slowly stood up, moved his stiff steps, and walked in front of Yan Siqing, "Mo Xiao has received the favor of Senior Sister Qing, and there is nothing to repay in this life, and he must do his best to promise things!"
Yan Siqing smiled, and her words were gentle, "No, you promised it yourself, I didn't force you!" As she spoke, she looked around and frowned, "It's so cold here that you can't live at all, you come back to Tianji Pavilion with me, and we'll find a way to intercede with the head master!"
Mo Xiao shook his head, "I made such a big mistake, I should have abolished my cultivation and expelled from Lingshan, the head master is so gracious, Mo Xiao is naturally grateful, where is there any luxury? Senior Sister Qing, you don't have to worry about me, I will find a way to keep out the cold!"
"Think of a way?way to be frozen into an ice sculpture?" Yan Siqing was disgusted for a while, "In this case, I can only survive tonight, and bring you more warm clothes tomorrow!"
Mo Xiao was stunned, "You...... You're not going back to the Tianluan Hall tonight?"
Yan Siqing shook her head, "Stay and spend the cold night with you, the pig's head!" I have a spirit sword to add to my body, and the sword qi is hot, which can resist the cold in the cave, so you can rest assured!"
Mo Xiao replied with a worried face: "However, if you don't return to the Tianluan Palace, won't Tianzun blame?
Yan Siqing knocked Mo Xiao's head and smiled smartly, "Say you're stupid, you're really stupid." Today, you will stay in the Tianluan Palace, and you will be able to cultivate for a few days before you can practice with a clear mind. Moreover, the Heavenly Venerable retreats and cultivates, and does not come in person, but only teaches by illusions. โ
Mo Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, "I see, I'm worried!" he said, pointing to Yan Siqing's palm, "How is the spirit sword used?"
Yan Siqing glared at him, "Tianzun's magic weapon is naturally extremely powerful, but it's a pity that the heart sword was inexplicably taken away by Chu Jun, it's really hateful!"
Mo Xiao was worried that Yan Siqing would mention that he had lost his heart sword again, so he immediately changed the topic: "Senior Sister Qing, I'm tired for a day, let's be sleepy, rest early!"
Yan Siqing looked at the damp ground, and then at the thin bedding, raised her jade hand, and used the spirit sword, and the sword body turned into a wall of air, blocking the mouth of the cave, emitting bursts of heat.
Suddenly, the cold cave** was as warm as bathing in the sun.
Mo Xiao was delighted, pointing to the bed, "Senior sister, you sleep on the bed, I sleep on the ground!" said as he went up to clean up the bed and sweep away the dust on it.
Yan Siqing's cheeks were slightly red, she wrung the corners of her clothes, and stood up, "This...... This bed is pretty ...... Big, I sleep ...... Sleep on this head, you ...... Sleep on that end...... No...... Out of the way!"
Mo Xiao was stunned and shook his head embarrassedly, "This...... I'm afraid it's not appropriate, Senior Sister Qing, you...... You don't have to worry about me, the cave is already hot, and it won't freeze anymore!"
Yan Siqing paused, bit her lips, stomped her foot, and pushed Mo Xiao onto the bed, "There's a lot of nonsense, go inside, go to sleep!"
Mo Xiao lay inside obediently, his body straight, his eyes closed, and he didn't dare to come out.
Although the bed is spacious, the two are not far away, and they can faintly feel each other's body temperature. Yan Siqing's body came with bursts of body fragrance, like an orchid and musk, which made Mo Xiao's heart feel relaxed and happy, and the situation when he hugged her that day kept coming to his mind, his body was hot and dry, but he didn't dare to move a bit.
The cave ** was suddenly surprisingly quiet.
After a while, Yan Siqing asked softly, "Mo Xiao, are you asleep?"
Mo Xiao was beating a drum in his heart, and he didn't know how to respond for a while, so he froze there, pretending to be asleep.
Yan Siqing turned her head and saw that Mo Xiao closed his eyes tightly, as if he was asleep, "Fell asleep so soon, bastard, I'm really tired today!" As she spoke, the slender jade hand reached out, landed on Mo Xiao's cheek, and stroked it gently, "If you cultivate the immortal method in the future, how can I protect you from time to time?" Mo Xiao, Mo Xiao, how should you deal with the two years in the sinking wall pool?"
Mo Xiao was caressed by Yan Siqing's soft and warm palm, which was extremely comfortable, and her body was very close, she could almost feel the heat of her body, and a tingling sensation hit her, and her heart was extremely hot.
Yan Siqing leaned close to Mo Xiao, leaned her head on his shoulder, gently stroked his cheek, and kept murmuring: "Mo Xiao, Mo Xiao, when will you be smarter? If you were smarter, Senior Sister wouldn't be so hard......"
Yan Siqing's soft body was next to Mo Xiao, which made his originally hot heart ripple, and secretly screamed: Senior Sister Qing, you have made Mo Xiao very hard......
After a moment of stalemate, suddenly, a warm whisper came into his ears, and the extremely beautiful woman who appeared when he was in the devil resurfaced in Mo Xiao's mind, the pair of sad, complaining, helpless eyes, and the dead gaze made him instantly sober and his body cooled.
After experiencing snatching the sword, abandoning the sword, and freezing, Mo Xiao's energy was almost exhausted, at this time, the hot body cooled down, and he instantly felt extremely heavy, and the feeling of sleepiness spread rapidly, and he heard Yan Siqing's gentle murmur in his ears, and gradually became sleepy.
Soon he fell into a deep sleep.
ยท
Early in the morning, Mo Xiao was awakened by a scolding sound. When I opened my eyes, I saw the master standing at the entrance of the cave with heavy clothes, looking at the two people on the bed with an angry face.
Mo Xiao got up in a panic, rolled off the bed, and knelt on the ground, "Master, you...... Why are you here?"
"Lonely men and widows, sleeping in the same bed, what kind of body will they become!" Yue Gu waved his hand, and his heavy clothes were heavily slammed into the hole, "Do you want to be angry to death as a teacher?"
Yan Siqing opened her eyes at this time, and when she saw Master's angry face, she immediately jumped out of bed, "Master, Senior Brother Mo Xiao was frozen last night and almost died, I arrived overnight to help him drive away the cold, and there was no deviance!"
Yue Guyang pointed to the spirit sword at the entrance of the cave, and his voice was sharp, "There is a spirit sword to seal the mouth to ward off the cold, why do you sleep on the same bed? Mo Xiao is not sensible, is your senior sister also ignorant?"
Mo Xiao hurriedly explained, "Master, it's all my fault, it has nothing to do with Senior Sister, you punish me!"
Yan Siqing also hurriedly defended: "Master, it was my senior brother Nian Moxiao who was overworked, and forced him to fall asleep on the bed, if you want to punish, you will also punish me!"
Yue Gu waved his sleeves indignantly and snorted coldly, "If it weren't for the two of you stealing the sword privately, how could there be such an incident?" After a pause, he pointed to Yan Siqing, "Qing'er, you have now entered the Tianluan Hall to follow Tianzun to cultivate the Nine Heavens Immortal Technique, and shoulder the mission of resisting demons, how can you go down to the palace at will? If it is really good for Xiao Er, you should diligently cultivate the immortal method, eliminate the demon and defend the Dao, and if you have achievements in the future, you can also help Xiao Er!
"But ......" Yan Siqing was about to say more, but was interrupted by Yue Gu, "Okay, don't say more, go back quickly!"
Knowing that the master's firmness could not be changed, Yan Siqing nodded, "Yes!" turned to Mo Xiao and chuckled: "Senior Brother Mo Xiao, you must take good care of yourself, when it is cold, block the hole with a quilt, don't be frozen into ice sculptures again......" As he spoke, tears flashed in his eyes, he took the spirit sword, stomped his feet, and left quickly.
Yue Gu looked at Mo Xiao and sighed lightly, "Xiao Er, I suffered last night, because I expected that your senior sister would come here to visit last night, so I will send warm clothes in the future!"
Mo Xiao said in his heart: It turns out that the master had already expected that Senior Sister Qing would come to me last night, and the scolding just now just made Senior Sister Qing devote herself to cultivation in the future and no longer come to Shenbi Pond, right? Thinking like this, his heart was sour, and he nodded, "Thank you, master!"
Yue Gu looked around, and found that there was a cool breeze from time to time, and it was very cold, "I will teach you a set of cold heart methods for the teacher, if you encounter the invasion of cold, you can cast a spell to resist the ......" As he spoke, he waved his right hand, and a breath of fresh air struck, and Mo Xiao had a mental mantra in his mind, and he followed the master's guidance to recite silently for a while, feeling that his body was hot and the cold disappeared.
At the end, Yue Gu sighed lightly: "Xiao Er, your senior sister is very smart and has excellent qualifications, and now she has entered the Tianzun Sect to practice, and in the future, she will become a great weapon to eliminate demons and defend the Dao." You should focus on the overall situation, and you should not covet the affection of your children, hinder your senior sister's cultivation, and waste your own progress. โ
Mo Xiao nodded slightly, "Master, Mo Xiao understands!"
Yue Gu patted him on the shoulder, "Practice here well, be quiet, or have a deeper understanding!" With that, he waved his sleeves and flew away.
Mo Xiao looked at the pool outside the cave and sighed to himself: On this spiritual mountain, tens of thousands of disciples, either double or third cultivators, are all accompanied. Now, I am the only one left here to practice, and I am much purer. As the master said, if you can realize something, it will not be in vain to be lonely for two years......
