Chapter 8: The Road to Cloud Travel (1)
In the blink of an eye, it was time to set off for Yunxing Palace.
Jiufang Xi walked out with Fang Ping and Fang Yuan holding a rattan box in one hand.
Qi Yang was waiting for him at the gate of the Qi Mansion, and when he saw that his face was pale, he couldn't help but say, "It's another seizure?"
Jiufang Xi nodded, but he didn't deny it. He smiled bitterly, weighed the box in his hand, and said with a smile: "After all, there are still some benefits, and the strength is much greater than before." ”
"But this is not a way after all, but if you can stay in the Cloud Palace, maybe you can find a way. Qi Yang comforted.
Jiufang Xi smiled and stopped answering.
"By the way, Jiufang, how about I tell you the news of a Coke?"
As soon as he got in the car, Qi Yang diverted the topic and looked at Jiufang Xi with a smile on his face.
"Huh, what's the news?"
"Si Chengxiao was beaten the night before!" Qi Yang suddenly said: "The Si family blocked the news, but it was overheard by my people. The night before, someone broke into the Si Mansion and beat Si Chengxiao into a pig's head, seriously injuring more than 40 guards of his family, if it weren't for Xu Wenxue coming in the end, Si Chengxiao was afraid that he would be beaten to death!"
"Oh, and there is news of such a coke?" Jiufang Xi suddenly became happy, and the sadness of the night finally dissipated a lot. "Is this reliable? Who is that person?"
In any case, it was a real pleasure to hear that one's enemies had fallen.
Qi Yang was overjoyed, and said while shaking his fan: "Who knows? Si Chengxiao himself doesn't know who that person is. The person I sent replied that he saw that Si Chengxiao had a broken arm, his whole face was swollen, and his nose was crooked. ”
"Then I'm afraid he won't be able to go to Yunxing Palace today, right?" Jiufang Xi grinned.
"That's not going to happen, a character like Si Chengxiao is arrogant and can't be underestimated, if he doesn't come forward, the world will only think that he has no face, so no matter how injured he is today, he will go to Yunxing Palace. Qi Yang analyzed: "Maybe, we can meet today!"
"Just look at him like that. Jiufang sneered.
"Yes, and you seem to be cured of your cold, it seems that today is really a good day!" Qi Yangle hehe, and Jiufang Xi talked about many rumors about Yunxing Palace.
Leling private school is in the easternmost part of Leling, Yunxing Palace is in the westernmost part of Leling, the middle is the imperial palace, the south is Guanshan, and the north is the starting point of the frontier to kill the gods. There are many famous places in Leling, but these five places are the most correct and often used to point to other directions.
As an imperial city, Leling has a vast area, hundreds of miles between the east and west, and it arrived at the foot of the Yunxing Palace by relying on Qi Yang's carriage to rush until the sunset. Qi Yang had already instructed someone to find an inn and quickly checked in.
The Cloud Palace is not on earth, in the sky, in the clouds.
The westernmost part of Leling is an endless mountain forest, stretching for an unknown number of people, and no one has ever counted how many mountains there are here, how many strange beasts there are. People are only active in the outskirts, and no one has ever penetrated into it, because as long as they enter the sky, no one will come out again.
A line of heaven is the only way to enter the Yunxing Palace, it is rumored that Emperor Xuanqi split a mountain peak as high as a thousand feet with one palm, because it is too high, so there is only sunlight shining into it every day, looking at it from a distance, it seems that the heaven and the earth are connected into a line.
A line of heaven is a dangerous place, and there are twelve desolate beasts sitting in the town, as long as someone breaks in, the smell of the breath of the living will appear soul body attack, killing people and eating meat is also common. Only every winter, when the line of daylight is extremely cold all year round, the twelve fierce beasts will weaken their original strength due to the weather, and winter is also the day when Yunxing Palace recruits students. But even so, the Yunxing Palace will be arranged to face the fierce beasts to eliminate a group of students who are too weak, but there are disciples of the Yunxing Palace guarding on the side, so that nothing too bloody will happen.
The mountains gather and condense into clouds and mist, and there is a palace above the clouds, which is the cloud palace. Pavilions and pavilions, carved beams and painted buildings, high pecking of eaves teeth, corridor waist and back, fairy birds have dance, clouds linger, not like the land of the world.
The "Heavenly Palace" written by those literati refers to the Yunxing Palace.
Jiufang Xi and Qi Yang looked at the Yunxing Palace together, and from a distance, the sea of clouds was rolling, dyed golden by the setting sun, and it was extremely holy.
"It is said that Leling Private School is to educate all people, and Yunxing Palace is to practice the way of heaven, the two are not the same, and when I see it today, it is true!"
Jiufang Xi couldn't help but admire.
Qi Yang also looked longing: "Actually, before I went to Leling Private School to study, I also wanted to go to Yunxing Palace, but the king didn't allow it, so I only went in once, but I only came out in one day." ”
"It's better than me, it's the first time I've seen Yunxing Palace with my own eyes......"
As he was talking, the sound of cars and horses approached in the distance.
If it was someone else, the two of them naturally didn't care, but the sign of the Sifu was hanging right away, and it was difficult for the two of them to control their eyes not to look.
Jiufang Xi and Qi Yang glanced at each other and smiled.
The person who came was Si Chengxiao!
Qi Yang is right, Si Chengxiao will not let the world laugh at him, especially such a major event as Yunxing Palace's re-enrollment, how could he miss it?
Not only for his own future, but also for the prestige of the Si family.
Si Chengxiao was carried out of the car, his right hand was very tightly bandaged, hanging around his neck, his face was blue and purple, and his eyes became slender and narrow because of puffiness. The leg injury should not be too serious, and there are no traces of bandaging, but he still lies on the soft couch very comfortably, and allows Xu Wenxue to hold the soft couch with one hand and put him on the ground.
Ruan Hongliang also came, a womanizer like him, naturally his eyes were wandering everywhere he went, looking for the whereabouts of the beauty. So when he saw Qi Yang and Jiufang Xi looking at them, he immediately "snorted" and told Si Chengxiao.
And they came. Si Chengxiao's eyes widened, but because of the wound, those eyes looked smaller, as if they were swallowed by the flesh on his face.
With a sneer, Si Chengxiao turned over and greeted Xu Wenxue and Ruan Hongliang, and walked towards Jiufang Xi and Qi Yang.
Si Chengxiao kept staring at Jiufang Xi, and the doubts in his heart became more and more intense. He had seen the face of the man who had attacked him in the moonlight, and it looked like Jiufang Xi. But Jiufang Xi is so weak that he has no power to restrain the chicken, this is something that the entire Leling Private School knows, and he can only think about the similarity of things and people.
It's just that the more he thinks of the night attack the night before, the more he feels the burning pain on his face, and although the teeth in his mouth have been repaired by the medical officer, he is unconscious. And the more it hurts, the more he hates that person.
"If you dare to hurt me, I will definitely catch you and break you into pieces! No, no, no, I will make you extremely miserable, life is better than death!"
Si Chengxiao was ruthless in his heart. He will be rewarded!
The eyes of the people around him, in his opinion, were so vicious and vicious.
He lowered his voice and said to Xu Wenxue beside him: "Take off Jiufang Xi's two arms for me, and I will let him kneel in front of me and beg for mercy!
Xu Wenxue felt Si Chengxiao's eyes, a tremor for no reason, he seemed to have never seen Si Chengxiao use such eyes, extremely vicious.
This Yunxing Inn is not small, and it is relatively prosperous.
After all, it is the inn closest to the Yunxing Palace, and many people who come and go to the Yunxing Palace are not ordinary people, maybe the people who live in this room will be admitted and become the pride of the sky, and it is too late to be busy with stammering, let alone offended.
Yunxing Inn covers an area of several acres and is divided into three grades. The lowest grade is the suite floor, there are several rooms on the first floor; the medium is an independent courtyard, there is no noise of passers-by; the highest grade, naturally it is a palace-like attic, each attic has its own name, such as Yunmi Tower, Penglai Pavilion, Zizhuyuan, etc., you don't need to think about it to know, living is not an ordinary person. People are divided into three, six, nine and so on, no matter how politically expansive Emperor Xuanqi is, this bad habit is inevitable.
Qi Yang lived in Penglai Pavilion, which has two master bedrooms in the east and west, which just correspond to each other with Jiufang Xi.
"The baby likes the Phoenix Building, the same name as the baby, the old housekeeper, we live here!"
At this time, a small man pointed to an attic in the middle, and his tone was a little arrogant, like a princess of any country, but he couldn't get rid of the milky tone, but became cute.
This is a girl, about thirteen or fourteen years old, with a pink face and round eyes, very cute. However, this girl is well-dressed, wearing a moon-white phoenix robe full of gold threads, a ponytail on her head, and a phoenix crown trembling and swaggering in the wind.
She was holding a large cat in her arms, with golden fluff wavy in the wind, black lines on her back, and the word "king" on her head, like a tiger shrunken to the size of a cat.
There was also an old man who looked like a housekeeper behind her, eight maidservants, and twenty retinues, which was quite a pomp.
"Yes, Your Highness!" the old butler was tall, but stooping, extremely thin, and in a black cloak, with only a white, expressionless face exposed.
"Old housekeeper, send someone to clean this Phoenix Tower, the baby doesn't want this new clothes to be dusty!" the girl said, pointing to the leaves in the yard.
"Yes, Your Highness!"
"Old butler, can you not always talk like these words? baby is so annoying!" the girl glared at the old butler, and pouted.
"Yes, Your Highness!" the old butler still said these words.
"Oh yo, oh my God!" the girl put one hand on her forehead, looking helpless. "Forget it, don't talk to you...... Huh?"
The girl was about to enter the Phoenix Tower, but suddenly stopped in surprise, turned her head and looked around, as if looking for something.
Finally, she fixed her eyes on Jiufang Xi and Qi Yang.
Looking at it, she muttered to herself: "These two brothers are so familiar, as if they have met somewhere......"
So, as if she had forgotten something else, she just watched.
