Chapter 2, Haoyuan Spring
As soon as Xu Ke returned to the mansion, he saw a white-haired old man standing in front of the hall, looking at him with a slight smile.
Xu Ke hurriedly clasped his fists and saluted: "Old man, are you here to find me?"
"Come with me!" the old man had just finished speaking, and the man had already floated out and walked straight to the front door......
"Old man, it's raining heavily outside!" Xu Ke exclaimed. But he forgot that he didn't have rain gear with him at this time, and he was covered in wet clothes.
Xu Ke saw that the old man had reached the gate, he looked into the back garden of his house, and vaguely heard the voices of Shu Hetian and Hu Yiyi. They seem to be busy packing their bags, waiting to go with them to the island of Bibo to live in seclusion. Xu Ke wanted to enter and let him know, but when he saw that the old man was far away, he didn't dare to hesitate at the moment, so he had to turn around and follow quickly......
At this time, the rain gradually slowed down, and Xu Ke followed the old man all the way. He saw that the white-haired old man was still a little rickety, and at this time his waist was straight, and he walked with his hands in his hands, without touching the ground, as if he was riding the wind. No matter how Xu Ke chased after him, the old man was always about ten steps ahead of him.
After all, Xu Ke is a young man's heart, and at this time, he is competitive, so he uses his magic skills to raise his qi and move quickly, and the two of them have been running south for about a moment. The old man's footsteps suddenly stopped, Xu Ke couldn't stop his running momentum for a while, and almost hit the old man's body headlong.
"Kunlun Divine Skill really lives up to its reputation! Your internal strength foundation is very good, but there is a demonic force mixed in the pure yang internal force, and the two forces cannot be fused, but it is damaged!" The old man looked at Xu Ke and sighed.
Xu Ke remembered that he had borrowed the power of the "Jingxing Pot" to absorb the essence of the white wolf monster, but the situation at that time, his heart was already ignorant, and when he heard the old man's words, his mind was even more chaotic, and he immediately asked: "I don't know what the old man meant? In the past, he had unintentionally absorbed the demonic power of a white wolf monster, how to crack it in the future?"
The old man shook his head and said, "I'll just bring you here, and you can take care of the rest by yourself, right?"
At this time, the two of them were already standing under a gatehouse, and there was no plaque on the door, surrounded by an ordinary gray wall. The old man pushed open the door with his hand and said to Xu Ke, "Go in!"
Xu Ke saw that the old man had been walking in the rain for more than a moment, and his clothes were not wet at all, and he couldn't help but be surprised. At this time, the old man pushed open the door and made a "please come in" gesture, he looked into the door, only to feel that the inside was plain, like an ordinary farm yard. Xu Ke hurriedly asked:
"Old man, haven't you asked for the name of Gao? What is this place? Why did you bring me here? What is the piece of Divine King Decree that King Zhao gave me before?"
The old man smiled and motioned with his hand for Xu Ke to take out the Divine King Order. He took the Divine King Order from Xu Ke's hand, looked at it, and returned it to Xu Ke, saying: "After you go in, no matter what you see, don't be afraid!
Before Xu Ke could ask each other, the old man waved his hand, showing a rather impatient expression, and said, "Why do you have so many questions, the person before is much happier than you! I have no name or surname, just a janitor!"
Xu Ke had no choice but to hold the Divine King Order in his hand and slowly walked into the door. Hearing only a "bang", the old man then closed the door again.
"This is the Divine King's Pavilion!" just go inside, someone will come looking for you......" The old man's muffled voice came from outside the door again, and gradually disappeared from being heard.
Xu Ke turned around and looked back, and couldn't help but be surprised, the two gates that he had just walked through had somehow disappeared, leaving only a whole tall wall, towering behind him. That wall looks ordinary from the outside, no more than two feet high, but at this time it is towering into the sky, and you can't fly over it even if you have wings.
This means that as long as he enters this door, Xu Ke has no turning back.
"Then let's go in and talk about it!I want to see, what is the mystery of this God King Pavilion?" Xu Ke had to turn his heart sideways and go straight inside.
It is also strange to say that outside the wall, the world that was still raining heavily just now, when I got to the wall, there was not a single rain falling, and I couldn't even hear the slightest sound of rain.
"Has the rain stopped?" Xu Ke thought as he walked inside.
Xu Ke looked up, except for the towering walls around him, there was nothing inside, no house corridors, no pavilions, not even a little flowers and trees, just a slightly larger courtyard.
It's just a slightly larger yard, Xu Ke keeps walking forward, but it seems to keep walking in place. He originally thought that he would be able to cross the courtyard and walk to the opposite side in a few dozen steps. He had a faint feeling that a figure was drawn on the wall opposite. He was anxious to walk over to see what was going on, but he didn't expect that after walking for a while, he was still walking, and the wall on the opposite side was still on the opposite side......
Xu Ke suddenly felt strange, he looked at the ground, and at some point, on the ground originally paved with bluestone and gray bricks, there were bursts of water vapor, and the water vapor steamed up, and turned into wisps of light smoke. The light smoke was misty and endless, and suddenly the courtyard was already a cloud of mist.
Xu Ke was in a cloud of mist, suddenly did not know where he was, and when he was wandering and hesitating, he suddenly heard a lion's roar, two giant lions, one left and one right, the lion's mouth was wide open, and they had pounced towards him......
Xu Ke couldn't retreat, remembered the command of the white-haired old man, and in a hurry, he raised the Divine King Order and headed towards the giant lion.
Xu Ke only felt that the Xuantie token in his hand was slightly hot, and the concave hole engraved with the sun and moon pattern suddenly shot out two purple lights, which shone neatly in the eyes of the two giant lions.
The two giant lions immediately let out a muffled roar and fell to the ground together, but turned into two stone lions with high lion heads. Between the two stone lions, a large iron gate also appeared in front of the clouds and mist.
Xu Ke walked
In front of the iron door, the luck pushed forward, and the iron door was extremely heavy, and it didn't move at all. He stepped forward and groped carefully, but could not find any notched machines, and the two iron doors were like two huge pieces of iron that were smooth and flat, and there was not even a knocker on them.
At this time, Xu Ke's body was full of clouds and mist, and the clouds and mist were like cotton wool, accumulating thicker and thicker, and they were about to cover Xu Ke's eyes.
Xu Ke pondered, if he didn't break this door, it would be difficult to move forward, and if he turned back, there was no way out. He rushed to the big iron gate again, and used the Divine King Decree in his hand to knock on the iron gate, pressing and rubbing, but the iron gate still did not move at all.
"What a strange door, it's so difficult to break through!" Xu Ke couldn't help but feel angry in his heart, and kicked at the iron door, no, the huge iron casting door was really thick and abnormal, not only did it still not move, but it hurt Xu Ke's right foot......
Xu Ke gasped in pain, hurriedly sat down on the ground, and rubbed his right foot.
When Xu Ke sat down, he suddenly noticed that the tall stone lion on the right side, between the thumbs and toes of his right foot, seemed to have a gap. He hurriedly got up and walked over to the stone lion to take a closer look, and found that the space between the toes of the stone lion was about the same width as the Divine King's order.
Xu Ke hurriedly took out the Divine King Order and inserted it into the space between the toes of the stone lion, twisted it hard, and vaguely heard the sound of the machine turning. He walked over to the stone lion on his left, and sure enough, there was a gap between his toes.
Xu Ke inserted the Xuantie token, and then twisted it hard, only to hear the sound of "rolling", and the two extremely heavy iron doors finally opened slowly from the middle.
"It turns out that the real machine is in Shishi!" Xu Ke couldn't help but scratch his forehead and walked quickly into the iron gate. Previously, the two stone lions in the town house were transformed from two fierce and fierce giant lions, but Xu Ke did not expect that there was a hidden switch of the iron door in the stone lions.
After stepping into the iron gate, Xu Ke heard a sound of "rolling" again, and the two iron doors were reunited. At this time, the clouds and mist had gone, the light smoke was gone, and what appeared in front of Xu Ke's eyes was another world.
Xu Ke raised his eyes and looked around, only to see that the surroundings were full of Qihua Yao grass, jade tree pavilions, the fragrance of grass and trees came in bursts, there were pavilions and water pavilions in the distance, rockery gravel, small bridges and flowing water, winding paths and secluded paths, and he seemed to be in a huge back garden. This garden is dozens of times larger than its own back garden.
Xu Ke walked in the garden, only to feel that the sky was clear, and there was no wind and rain at this time, and there was no wind and rain at this time, and the surrounding grass and trees were verdant, and the scenery was lush, and the season seemed to be spring. However, Xu Kewu was surprised, and always felt that there seemed to be something wrong here. After thinking about it, I realized that although along the way, the water was flowing, the flowers were blooming, the grass was blooming, and the trees were separated, but there were no fish in the water, no butterflies among the flowers, no insects on the grass, no birds under the trees, and there was no living creature in the whole garden except for myself!
"What kind of place is this?" Xu Ke walked all the way, thinking all the way, and suddenly heard a shout in the distance: "Here!"
Xu Ke couldn't help but shake his spirits, strode forward, he walked through the pebble path among the flowers and plants, walked over the winding bridge on the flowing water, walked through the green bamboo house under the camphor tree, but saw a small hill in front of him, a waterfall on the top of the mountain flowed down, but there was a cave in the mountainside, and the sound came from the hole.
"This friend, are you in there?" Xu Ke couldn't help but shout into the cave.
"Come in" There was really someone in the cave, and Xu Ke could hear it clearly at this time, the voice was clear and long, like a teenager.
Xu Ke secretly used his internal strength, took a breath of true qi, crossed his feet to the ground, and rushed up to the cave. After running for more than ten zhang, he found a boulder protruding from the waterfall, borrowed his feet with strength, and moved forward, and his slender body was like a crane in the sky, jumping over the waterfall and jumping into the cave.
Xu Ke walked into the cave, only to see that there was a cave inside, the cave was very wide, like a natural stone room. A small stream meanders past him and merges into the waterfall, and beside the small stream, the mountain and rocks are level, and there are stone tables, stone chairs, stone benches, and stone beds. At this time, there was an old man sitting next to the stone table, he was dressed in a white shirt, full of white hair, his face was furrowed, and his face was full of wind and dust, and he couldn't tell how old he was.
Xu Ke walked up to the old man, bowed down and said, "Old man, what kind of place is this?"
The old man in the white shirt looked at Xu Ke, picked up a stone bowl on the table, took a sip of tea, and said indifferently to Xu Ke on a stone bench opposite his fingers: "Sit down, taste the Huayu tea I brewed" Although his face was old, the voice of a teenager came out of his mouth.
Xu Ke saw that the old man's voice and appearance were so different, although he was surprised, he was not surprised. He went to the stone table and sat down, took a large sip of tea from the stone bowl, and found that the tea was still warm.
"Good tea, more fragrant than the flowers and rain in my home!" After Xu Ke drank the tea, he suddenly felt a warm feeling, which penetrated into his heart, and he was extremely comfortable.
"This mountain is called 'Huaguo Mountain', and this cave also has a name, called 'Water Curtain Cave'!" The old man in white shirt looked at Xu Ke, smiled on his face, and said slowly.
"Huaguo Mountain, Water Curtain Cave?" Xu Ke couldn't help but wonder.
"Do you have any impressions?" asked the old man in the white shirt.
Xu Ke shook his head, looking confused.
"Hahaha! This is not a Huaguo Mountain Water Curtain Cave, this place is my spiritual platform building, and it is the place where my divine consciousness is sustenance, and I like to sit here when I have nothing to do. I also gave her a name, called 'Hao Yuan'......" The old man in the white shirt smiled. The more he laughed, the more he showed a childlike state, and he looked old, and suddenly became different.
"Haoyuan?" Xu Ke scratched his forehead and couldn't help asking, "Isn't this ...... God-King Pavilion?"
"God King Pavilion, it's there, come with me!" The white-shirted old man got up and led Xu Ke to the mountain
Go in the other direction of the cave.
The further Xu Ke walked, the brighter he saw ahead, this cave seemed to run through the entire hill, and there might be another exit ahead.
The two walked straight to the place in front that was already dazzling, and Xu Ke saw that the old man in white suddenly stopped, so he walked forward and asked himself:
"Old man, haven't you asked for your name?"
Xu Ke suddenly realized that he was kicked on the back and hips, and a strong force attacked, he couldn't hold it, his body leaned forward two steps, his feet suddenly emptied, and his body fell straight down.
"My surname is Bai, and my name is Wulife," the old man in white replied, but he said this sentence a little late, and Xu Ke was afraid that he would not be able to hear it. At this time, Xu Ke was in a rapid decline, he only felt the wind whistling on both sides, his mind was blank, he seemed to have fallen into an abyss, the abyss was bottomless, he had been falling, falling faster and faster......
Bai Wuming in the cave, looking at the abyss that Xu Ke fell into, showed a knowing smile on his face. He muttered in his mouth, as if he was secretly sighing: "Senior brother, I was beaten by you a lot in the ass at that time, and now I kick you, and the two of us are even!"
......
I don't know how much time passed, Xu Ke finally fell to the ground, he hurriedly jumped up and touched his body, and found that he was not injured at all. He rubbed his eyes and looked around, wondering where he had fallen.
But time didn't allow him to think about it, Xu Ke hadn't seen what kind of world Zhou was in the end, and suddenly heard a tiger roar, and a big tiger with black hair all over his body had pounced on him.
Xu Ke hurriedly fell to the ground and rolled over, avoiding the sneak attack of the black tiger. The black tiger turned around, and in a pair of tiger eyes, the fierce light was in full bloom, and he stared at himself tightly.
"Black Tiger Spirit, didn't you escape, how did you get here again!" Xu Ke was startled, and hurriedly subconsciously drew his sword from his back, he had forgotten that his Kunwu sword had already been taken back by the order of the Son of Heaven.
Unexpectedly, with a "cang" sound, Xu Ke had already drawn his sword in his hand, and this time, even he couldn't help but be shocked, the "Kunwu Sword" was back in Xu Ke's hands at this moment.
Xu Ke couldn't think about it, and saw that the black tiger spirit roared in a low voice, and pounced again, hurriedly turned to the side slightly, pointed obliquely at the tip of the sword, and shouted "Breaking the gold potential!" The intention turned at will, the qi arrived at will, and a true qi came out with the sword body, stirring up gusts of wind and stabbing straight towards the black tiger.
The black tiger slapped its front paws and opened Xu Ke's long sword, and the side of the tiger's body swept past Xu Ke, and he was not injured in either blow.
"Swing the fire!" Before the black tiger landed, Xu Ke hurriedly poured the true qi into his right arm, and the sword moved with the air, and a Kunwu sword drew a heavy overlapping sword shadow, and then swept towards the black tiger.
Seeing that the sword was powerful, the black tiger turned around and avoided it.
"The water is cut off...... Kaimushi ...... Ripping the earth!" Xu Ke stabbed out three swords one after another, and the black tiger jumped left and right, all of which could be avoided.
The sword move given by Yu Lu Weng that day was a total of these five potentials. Xu Ke saw that the five potentials had been exhausted, and he couldn't hurt the black tiger in the slightest, at this time, the black tiger was prostrate on his side, waiting for the opportunity to pounce, he had to put the sword horizontally, and still shouted in his mouth, "Break the gold potential!" True qi swam with the sword body, and a long sword stabbed at the black tiger again. The black tiger just leaned over and avoided it again.
"Swing the fire...... Potential ...... water break Ripping momentum!"
......
The black tiger seemed to have seen through Xu Ke's sword moves, and it was only five potentials when he swung it around. He kept flashing and moving around with Xu Ke, as soon as Xu Ke stopped, he jumped up, Xu Ke took out his sword, and he avoided it sideways. After Xu Ke used these five potential swords dozens of times, he was already tired and sweating profusely and panting. The black tiger was so good that he was lying quietly in front of Xu Ke's right.
Seeing that the black tiger did not jump up and pounce at this time, Xu Ke had time to look around. He didn't look at it, and when he saw it, he was shocked. It turned out that the place where he settled at this time was the halfway point of Jinding Mountain, which was located in the southern suburbs of Chang'an City.
"Didn't you say that the Divine King Pavilion, how did you come to Jinding Mountain?" Xu Ke was wondering in his heart, but he saw that the black tiger's front feet were slightly bent and its hind legs were standing, just like that night, it had gone crazy after being hit by a sword in its back, and it had already slowly stood up.
Xu Ke had to use his last strength to concentrate on preparing for battle, and at this time, his right hand holding the hilt of the sword was already trembling slightly, and he was really powerless to fight the enemy. He said in his heart, it's over! With the help of Brother Murong before, I was lucky not to die, but today I met you again, a vicious beast, it seems that my life is at rest!
At this moment, three figures quickly flashed in his mind: Murong Yan, Hu Yiyi, and Zhao Yu.
Strange, how can there be Zhao Yu!
Yan'er, what is she doing now?
Sister Hu is still waiting for me to go to the island with her to live in seclusion.
However, even if we do get to Bibo Island, will I be able to live happily ever after?
At this time, Xu Ke's mind was like lightning, and several thoughts had flashed through him. The giant beast in front of him had already stood up straight, and let out a few long howls from the sky.
"Hahahaha!" The troll raised its head to the sky, but instead of a tiger's roar, it was a human laugh. The hearty laughter through the mountains, rocks, grass and trees, resounding in the sky with the wind, is extremely comfortable to hear.
"How can the black tiger spirit make a human laugh!" Xu Ke was suddenly surprised in his heart, he looked intently, but saw that huge fierce beast, at this time, its body had gradually shrunk, and slowly turned into a human body, and it was a beautiful man with a handsome face and a clear spirit.
The man who was refreshed and tall was slowly walking towards him at this time......
"Brother Junxian!" Xu Ke exclaimed happily.
