Chapter 18: Unwarranted Imprisonment (1)
In the blink of an eye, the drunkard and the others fell, Changsheng hugged the little monkey, looked around, and said in his heart: "Did you arrive at the Xuanjian Sect so quickly? How can it be such a small village? It looks like there are only one hundred and ten households? Is the Xuanjian Sect, one of the Eight Great Immortal Sects, like this?"
The wine madman took Changsheng into the village, and went around to a courtyard, Changsheng raised his eyes and saw three big characters hanging above the courtyard gate: "Baixiao Building". Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"It turned out to be Bai Xiaolou!" Changsheng smiled dumbly, "I thought I had arrived at the Xuanjian Sect." ”
"Xuanjian Sect?" the wine madman glared at Changsheng and said, "The Xuanjian Sect is tens of thousands of miles away from here, and I will fly for many years, of course you are not tired, but you can be tired for the teacher! ”
Changsheng hung his head and went to drink, and the drunkard said to Yuan Yiyi: "Little girl, we are going back to the Xuanjian Sect, are you planning to go back to the Emei Sect, or go to the Xuanjian Sect with us?" Yuan Yiyi hesitated for a while, unable to make up her mind.
The wine mad said: "Let's go to the Xuanjian Sect with me, what's the point of facing the broken face of the old woman who has broken water all day long? ”
"Both the master and the master are very good ......" Yuan Yiyi hurriedly explained, and the drunkard waved his sleeves and said: "I'm used to arguing with the broken water, even if I say this to her face-to-face, she won't blame me." You follow me to the Xuanjian Sect!
It's just that the little monkey is a little troublesome, but Senior Brother can't even let go of the demon beast that hasn't transformed and throw it into the Demon Suppression Tower, right?"
There was nothing to say all the way, and the drunkard took the immortal Yuan Yiyi all the way to the foot of Cangming Mountain through the Baixiaolou teleportation array, and opened the teleportation array that bit of Pei Yuan Dan, which was not a matter for the drunkard.
The wine madness pointed to Cangming Mountain and said, "My Xuanjian Sect is located in the Iron Sword Peak in this Cangming Mountain. Cangming Mountain is located in the easternmost part of the Middle-earth Continent, and further east is the vast East China Sea. One of the tasks of my Xuanjian Sect is to defend against the invading krakens in this vast sea. ”
He smiled again, took the gourd, took a big sip of wine, and said, "But over the years, the Sea Clan in the East China Sea has been very peaceful, and there are very few big demons invading the mainland, and my Xuanjian Sect doesn't have much to do!"
Changsheng Qi said: "The Xuanjian Sect is also responsible for the garrison in the east, do the other sects also have their own tasks?"
Yuan Yiyi nodded and said: "As far as I know, that's the case, at least my Eight Great Immortal Sects have a clear defensive area, such as the Emei Sect, which is to defend the southwest and target the demon clan in the southwest."
Another example is the Kunlun Sect, which is to guard against the west, to prevent the demon clan in the west and the demon sect in the desert.
There is also the Xuanwu Sect, which is also defending the Demon Sect on the grasslands in the northwest.
The Three Holy Palaces are the northern part of the defense of the Outer Yin Mountain Sect.
Penglai Pavilion, located on the sea in the northeast, is mainly to defend the Yinshan Sect and the Sea Clan of the East China Sea.
Yandang Sect, defending the sea tribe in the southeast, the East China Sea and the South China Sea.
The Holy Fire Temple in the Southern Sea is responsible for guarding against the sea clans in the South China Sea, and at the same time, it also has to monitor the demon clans in the south, especially the demon clans in the 100,000 mountains. ”
Only then did Changsheng know that the Eight Great Immortal Sects were not cultivating outside the world as he imagined, and they were not involved in red dust, but they actually had their own priorities, surrounding the entire area where the Middle-earth people lived.
"Except for the eight great immortal sects that have their own defensive areas, in fact, the other large and small sects have corresponding tasks. It's just that some of them know, and some of which they don't.
For example, around these 100,000 mountains, there are thousands of small and medium-sized sects, and their task is to prevent the demon clan of the 100,000 mountains from breaking into the Central Plains. The drunken maniac then explained, "But since more than 10,000 years ago, the nine-tailed green fox of the heavenly demon in the 100,000 mountains, united with the demons in the southwest, and failed to attack Kunlun Guangming Peak, most of the powerful monsters in the 100,000 mountains have been eliminated, and their strength has been greatly damaged, even if there are some remnants, they are three-legged cats and twos, there is no big threat, these small and medium-sized sects defend them, it is enough!"
These Yuan Yiyi obviously didn't know yet, and asked, "If some of these sects are destroyed, won't it leave a loophole?"
The drunkard laughed and said: "If a sect is destroyed, there will be other forces to fill it, these 100,000 mountains are within the control of the Holy Fire Temple, and they have them to worry about, we can't control it."
Don't say that the small and medium-sized sects will be destroyed, even the Eight Great Immortal Sects will be destroyed.
More than 10,000 years ago, the Eight Great Immortal Sects did not have a Holy Fire Temple, and the Taiyi Sect was originally in charge of that part, but as a result, the nine-tailed green fox led the demons to destroy the Taiyi Sect and attacked it until the foot of Kunlun Mountain, only to be destroyed by the remaining Seven Great Immortal Sects.
After that, the Holy Fire Hall was elected by the remaining Seven Great Immortal Sects to become the Eighth Great Immortal Sect, which led to the current South China Sea Holy Fire Temple. ”
Yuan Yiyi said with palpitations: "I heard that the master said that the demons attacked Kunlun, and we Emei also went to support, and many people died, dozens of predecessors in the Mahayana realm died, and even the masters of the catastrophe and scattered immortals also died. ”
Hearing the two of them talk about the past of the nine-tailed green fox, Changsheng's face was a little unnatural, he had seen some stone paintings in the Qingyang Cave Mansion, one of the paintings showed the green fox standing on the roof of the Taiyi Palace, the demons cheered, and the ground was covered with the corpses of the cultivators, presumably to describe the situation when the green fox destroyed the Tai. At that time, he was still speculating about what sect the Taiyi Hall was.
Thinking of the little fox who was good friends with him, he couldn't help but be a little worried, if the little fox was strong, the Eight Great Immortal Sects would not let her go.
Seeing that Changsheng's face was a little ugly, the wine madman said with a smile: "Don't be afraid, this kind of thing is rare to encounter once in tens of thousands of years, and it is generally just some small-scale conflicts, and one Immortal Sect is enough to deal with it."
Alas, from ancient times to the present, the original Eight Great Immortal Sects, the only ones that really survived were Kunlun, Emei and my Xuanjian Sect, which are also the so-called upper three sects.
Although my Xuanjian Sect is named one of the Upper Three Sects, in terms of strength, it ranks in the bottom few of the Eight Great Immortal Sects, which is a sigh, a sigh!" The wine maniac seemed to remember the old things, staring at the layers of Dai Qingluan in the mist in the distance, like ink paintings, and stopped talking.
Changsheng and Yuan Yiyi glanced at each other, not knowing what the story was.
After being silent for a long time, the wine madness woke up, poured a large sip of wine, and threw the big red gourd into the air, the gourd rose when it saw the wind, turned into a huge gourd three zhang long, and said madly: "Let's go, I'll take you to the Iron Sword Peak." ”
Tiejian Peak is more than 3,000 zhang high, most of it is not in the clouds, it is extremely steep and precipitous, there are cliffs everywhere, and it is difficult for apes to climb.
The gourd of the wine madness hovered in the air, pointed to the Iron Sword Peak and said with a smile: "The sky is three thousand three high, reach out and touch the sky, only three inches and three, it is said that this Iron Sword Peak, compared to your Emei Golden Peak, is half a section higher, only shorter than Kunlun Guangming Peak." ”
As he spoke, he took out a token and shook it twice, a ripple flashed in the air, breaking a big hole, it turned out that this Xuanjian Sect was still guarded by a magic circle.
Changsheng was very surprised, the Xuanwu Sect also had a mountain protection array, but Ping Suli did not open it, the consumption was too great, and the Xuanwu Sect could not support it.
Jiu laughed wildly: "Don't be surprised, the upper three sects always have the proud capital of the upper three sects, although this mountain protection array is extremely powerful and the defense is amazing, but the consumption is very small, and the spirit gathering array is enough to support it, and no one needs to take care of it." My Xuanjian Sect has been able to stretch from ancient times to the present, and it has never been broken by anyone, and this mountain protection array has contributed a lot. ”
The three of them drilled into the cave, and there were countless platforms up and down this Iron Sword Peak, ranging in size from a few zhang to thousands of zhang, and there were countless caves, and cultivators like ants shuttled through it.
The drunken maniac landed on a stone platform of dozens of feet near the peak, put away the gourd, and asked a boy who was sweeping the floor: "Qingfeng, is the senior brother in charge?"
Qingfeng looked up and saw that he was a drunkard, and said happily: "Uncle Shi is back, the head of the family is resting in the hall, you can go in directly!"
The wine madness led Changsheng and Yuan Yiyi into a large hall built by the mountain, called the Jingxin Palace, said to be the main hall, but it is not big at all, but it is a few zhang in size, half of it is still in the belly of the mountain, and the main hall of Tiejian Peak is mostly like this.
The hall is empty, the furnishings are very simple, there are only a few pieces of household goods, more than a dozen futons, spread in the hall, there is only a bronze ancient sword in the hall, the patina is mottled, but it is wiped clean, and there are two words engraved on it, "Zhu Xian".
