Chapter 44 The Boat Sails on the River
Pushui Haohao Tang Tang, bypassing Puyang City through the plain down, even if this is the upper reaches of Pushui, the width is quite considerable, standing on the bank of Pushui and looking at the opposite bank, even if it is a martial artist with good eyesight, its vision will be blocked by the ethereal smoke waves. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
It's a bit like the Amazon estuary.
Pushui is one of the great rivers in the east-west direction of Shu, and the city of Yidu, the king of Shu, is in the downstream of Pushui, which can be regarded as a golden waterway.
Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to say that on the great river, thousands of sails rise and go like clouds.
However, in the middle of the river, there are very few boats.
This is because on this waterway, only the ships of the Heavenly Temple and the royal family can pass, and even the ships of the first-class family gate lords dare not enter it. If anyone doesn't understand the rules, they will become a short line of words recorded in the history books, but that line of words represents the rise and fall of the family and the lives of tens of thousands of people.
A large ship was speeding downstream in the middle of the river, not with white sails like the cargo boats on either side.
It's a rune ship.
Both inside and outside the hull of the ship are engraved with runes, forming some small rune arrays.
Some runes can reduce the weight of the ship, making all the iron thorn wood, which is heavier than steel, as light as a feather; some runes are powered by runes, which are far more reliable than wind and manpower, and their power is much stronger; and some runes eliminate the oncoming resistance due to the extremely fast speed, so that the wind rushes to the sides of the hull in a hurry......
The most important thing is that on the top of this big ship, there is a bronze statue, the bronze statue is in the shape of a human, but the face is not engraved with facial features, and behind his head, there is a silver-white circle of light floating, this circle of light comes from the rune kinetic energy.
This is the symbol of the Heavenly Temple.
The bronze statue is the Taoist ancestor.
In the Heavenly Temple, it is the statue of the Dao Ancestor that is enshrined, but no one dares to carve the facial features of the Dao Ancestor on the bronze statue.
This is a world that can be manifested, unlike on the earth, where the immortal God has not been manifested, but is just people's imagination, so it is possible to carve the portrait of God Sanqing Buddha at will.
The founding patriarch of the Rune Gate is the boy who cleaned in front of the court by the second apprentice of the Dao Ancestor, and with this origin, the Heavenly Temple can also worship the Dao Ancestor, if there is no similar origin, it is not allowed to worship the Dao Ancestor.
This world is not like the Nine Heavens.
The Nine Heavens are enlightened by incense, and the more believers there are, the stronger the divine power will be, and the wider the divine domain that can be controlled, so wherever the divine domain is located, there must be a position of the gods, and the believers must worship day and night, and there must be no mistakes.
The laws of the Heavenly Dao are different, and the paths taken by practitioners are also different.
In the central river of Pushui, you can occasionally meet big ships coming upstream, most of them are from the royal family, or the ships of the Heavenly Temple in some places, and when they see this talisman boat from a distance, they all dodge to the side.
Some even stopped and waited aside.
This is because on the bow of this rune ship, there is a sign engraved on the seal, which indicates that the person sitting on the ship is a chief priest, the first rank powerhouse of the Tianyun Realm, whether it is status or strength, they must be respected.
Gu Xiaozhao stood at the bow of the boat, holding the side of the boat with both hands, looking at the sea and sky from afar, his eyebrows jumped slightly, and his expression was no longer calm.
When he's not fighting, he still has his emotions.
There is still a little bit of parting sorrow and parting, but after all, like the wind on the river, it blows and does not hover in the bottom of my heart for a long time.
This time, he parted with Zhou Shiyu, Gu Feiyang and others, to some extent, if he wants to meet again next time, it may be many years later.
Originally, after the election of Banan County, there would be a three-day rest day for the selected teenagers to return to the family and obtain family glory, and those families would also send invitations to invite families with good or bad relationships to come to the banquet.
It's an act of boasting!
Every twenty years, there is such a reincarnation, sometimes the Gu family dominates, such as the last time and this time, sometimes it is Dongfang Weiwei, and some era has changed, maybe it is the Wei family, maybe it is the Chai family......
In short, none of these four families has ever fallen off the list in a hundred years.
It's a must!
If within a hundred years, there will not be a single disciple who can enter the final election, then most of this family will decline.
This time, though, the three-day holiday was canceled.
Yan Gongwang didn't dare to hide Gu Xiaozhao's interception and killing, and had already transmitted this information to Yidu Heavenly Temple through special channels, but he didn't know if it was known by the celestial Bai Ye.
The response from Yidu was only a short sentence, I know!
Got it?
What does that mean?
In the past, Yan Gongwang liked to play some official tones, say some specious things, and like to let his subordinates rack their brains to guess.
Now, when others did the same to him, he didn't feel how uncomfortable he was, so he decided that the next time he explained things to Luo Tianyou and the others, his words had to be even more vague.
In Yan Gongwang's opinion, the reason why the Heavenly Temple did not make a decision immediately was because Gu Xiaozhao was still alive.
It is not unrelated to Gu Xi in the Heavenly Temple.
You must know that twenty years ago, he was also successfully elected, passed the general election, entered the mountain behind the Heavenly Temple, and became a fairy child of a certain celestial.
I remember that the celestial man was called Aoba, and it was a female celestial.
The reason why Gu Xi was able to achieve the Fa at the age of 42 may be related to this experience.
During this period, what gossip there was, Yan Gongwang did not dare to speculate.
Since there is no decree passed down from above, Yan Gongwang will naturally not have much to do, he has to look for Gu Xi, you know, he knows in his heart that he really may not be able to clean up this new Faxiang real person.
However, in order to avoid long nights and dreams, Yan Gongwang still decided to set off early.
This is the scene of the boat sailing on the river.
In this way, Gu Xiaozhao had to leave Zhou Shiyu and the others, who had only been together for a long time, although there was a faint sadness in his heart, but he would not be too entangled, let alone sad.
He knew very well in his heart that he could only walk alone on the path of cultivation.
The so-called wealth and wealth law is only the beginning.
Gu Xiaozhao has already taught all kinds of secret magic powers to Gu Feiyang and others, and those exercises can be practiced all the way to the point of the law phase, even if Gu Feiyang and the others have the help of Gu Xiaozhao's left pill magic weapon, if they want to cultivate to the point of the law phase, they don't know that they will have to go to the year of the monkey.
At that time, Gu Xiaozhao was definitely no longer in a small plane like the Tianyun Realm.
Of course, with the transfer of the stone tablet world, Gu Xiaozhao can also return to the Tianyun Realm at any time, but, what's the point?
Just like a caterpillar that breaks out of its cocoon and turns into a butterfly, it will never be nostalgic for the mud pit again.
On the path of cultivation, if you can't keep up, you can only fall behind, and what kind of person can ascend to heaven is completely unrealistic in this world.
Among those people, Xiao Ling'er is his demon servant, and his fate is closely related to him, so don't mention it.
The only one who can really keep up with him in a short period of time is Zhou Shiyu.
After all, her cultivation of the Red Dust Chapter of the Hatred Heavenly Palace was an extremely domineering exercise, and if she had a little success in her cultivation, the body of the Upper Realm Leaving the Hatred Heavenly Palace would take back the distraction.
Therefore, without flying to Xiantai, Zhou Shiyu can fly to the upper realm.
However, she must engage in a silent fight to the death with that primordial god body, and if she wins, she will live, and if she loses, she will die!
At that level, she could only get through it by herself, Gu Xiaozhao had already done everything she could, and she could only rely on herself for the rest.
People, after all, can only rely on themselves!
Gu Xiaozhao exhaled softly, and spit out all the parting feelings mixed in this breath.
In this way, there is no stagnation in the heart.
Aware of this, Gu Xiaozhao turned his head to look back, Xu Dongyang turned from the other end of the cabin, and walked towards Gu Xiaozhao with a smile on his face.
"Senior Brother Xu......"
Gu Xiaozhao nodded to Xu Dongyang, that's all, there is no meaning of greetings, he is not good at chatting with people, and he doesn't like to do this, in the world of martial arts, words have no power at all.
The mind was swept away, and everything was clear.
As an art of quibbling, language is useless, so Gu Xiaozhao has always been silent.
Xu Dongyang is different, he is very eloquent, and when he comes into contact with people, he often gives people a feeling of spring breeze.
Gu Xiaozhao didn't mean to talk deeply, Xu Dongyang also felt this, however, he never left, and still said to Gu Xiaozhao with a smile.
"Senior Brother Gu, do you know anything about the general election?"
Gu Xiaozhao shook his head.
"This time, the Heavenly Chosen includes the genius boys of the forty-eight counties of Shu Kingdom, plus some children of the royal family, there are more than two hundred people, however, there are only about ten people who can really become fairy children, and it is not easy to choose one out of twenty!"
After that, Xu Dongyang restrained his smile and sighed.
"Speaking of which, Senior Brother, my luck is also good, to be able to have a touch of purple, it is a generation favored by God, however, this time the Heavenly Choice, there are too many outstanding people, there are more than 30 people with purple luck, among these people, Senior Brother I am really nothing!"
After that, he glanced at Gu Xiaozhao, with a hint of envy in his eyes.
"Only a person as amazing and brilliant as Senior Brother can dominate this Heavenly Selection, but for the sake of prudence, Senior Brother will tell you about the rules of Yidu Heavenly Selection......"
After a pause, Xu Dongyang said with a solemn expression.
"The rule of this Chosen is that there are no rules!"
After that, he explained.
"All candidates will be put into the secret realm of the mountain behind the Heavenly Temple, looking for jade talismans in the secret realm, when the time comes, all candidates who do not have jade talismans on their bodies will be eliminated, and only candidates who have obtained jade talismans can enter the next round!"
Xu Dongyang took a deep breath.
"In this round of selection, there are no rules, cannibalism is allowed, if you feel invincible, you can stimulate the talisman engraved on your clothes, so that you can get out of the secret realm, of course, this is eliminated! If you don't give up, if you are killed, then you can only sigh unlucky......
Speaking of this, Xu Dongyang chuckled.
"Isn't this level very powerful, however, what's even more bizarre is the last level, even if you get the jade talisman, you may not be able to become a fairy child, because you need to stand in front of the celestials and let them choose, if no celestial chosens you, then you can only leave in disgrace and become one of the eliminated!"
Isn't this an interview?
The examiner has a veto!
