Chapter 10: The Ancestor of Heaven
Qingfeng gradually woke up in bed, and at this time she felt that her body was much better, but she couldn't remember why she fainted in the first place, but she vaguely remembered that it was Han Shengchen who jumped out in Tianshan, and it was a flame later, and that's it. Qingfeng stroked her head, she didn't know where it was, and she didn't see Han Shengchen, it seemed strange, at this time, the door was opened, and it was a maid who came in, holding a square plate in her hand, and a bowl of medicine on it.
At this time, Han Shengchen was boiling medicine in the pharmacy, and when he saw the maid hurriedly running, he asked what was the matter.
"That Qingfeng girl is gone!" the maid said hurriedly, and then ran to the Qingfeng house with Han Shengchen, and Qingfeng had already left at this time.
Han Shengchen looked around and found the token on the table, it was a jade pendant, which seemed to be ingenious, and there was a letter next to it, Han Shengchen hurriedly opened it, only to see that it was said inside: "My feelings are so good, I am not a master, don't worry about me, don't read it."
After reading the letter, Han Shengchen unconsciously expressed sadness, Han Shengchen didn't know who Qingfeng was, but he felt inexplicable pain at her parting, and now he couldn't extricate himself, and what could he do?
"What! are you married?" came the cry of surprise from the Void Hundred Words in the Organ Cheng Technique, and in this vast hall, in addition to the ornately decorated objects, there were only two people, Void Baiyan and Void Truth.
"No, no," Xuzhen was always like a child in front of his father, "just a wife who has not passed through the door."
"Nonsense! You don't understand the world, if you are deceived by those fox spirits outside, how can it be good!"
"I'm not a child anymore, and she's not a vixen either!" said Xuzhen, unconvinced when he heard his father say this.
"You" Xubaiyan was helpless, and patted Xuzhen's head, "Anyway, you have to go to Baihuamen for me to marry Miss Baihuaer!"
Xuan Zhen didn't understand why his father forced him to marry Miss Baihuaer, so he said: "Why do you always force me to go to Baihuamen!"
"Alas, what's wrong with this Baihua Second Lady, she is beautiful and kind-hearted, she knows everything about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and besides, this is also your mother" Xu Baiyan said this, and paused.
When Xu Zhen heard Xu Baiyan talk about his mother, he began to be a little serious: "Just because my mother was a person from Baihuamen, you forced me to marry someone from Baihuamen?
Speaking of this, he provoked the sadness of Xu Baiyan, he sighed and said: "Your mother paid so much price for the two factions of the agency, you can't live up to her" Xu Baiyan became more and more sad, "If your father is not there one day, you will have a place to go."
After hearing this, he stopped talking, and ran out of the door, and was stopped by his father: "Where are you going!"
"I'm going to make it clear to that Miss Baihuaer!" said Xuzhen, and continued to run out of the door, leaving Xubaiyan alone in the main hall.
After a night, Han Shengchen found Baihuaqin, at this time she was dressing up for Baihuaqin in the boudoir, and at first glance, she knew that it was for marriage, Baihuaqin saw Han Shengchen, and talked to him at the door.
"Thank you for taking in Miss Baihua these days, I am leaving today, so I will come here to say goodbye," Han Shengchen said.
"Xiangning is about to get married this day, if it is convenient, you can stay for the wedding banquet" Baihuaqin smiled, obviously happy for Baihua Xiangning's upcoming marriage.
"Thank you Miss Baihua for your kindness, but there is something important in the future, so I would like to congratulate the second lady first!" Han Shengchen knew that he had something to do, so the matter of the phoenix could not be postponed any longer.
Baihuaqin nodded, and was about to send Han Shengchen to the door of the faction, the two chatted all the way and soon sent the door, and were about to say goodbye, when suddenly a disciple came to Baihuaqin and said something in Baihuaqin's ear, Baihuaqin nodded, signaling the disciple to retreat, with some worry on his face.
"I wonder what happened to the Hundred Flowers Girl again?" Han Shengchen suddenly asked.
"It's okay, it's just that the groom is here, and he is seeing me coming to greet him," Baihuaqin said with a smile.
Han Shengchen listened to it, it had nothing to do with him, so he arched his hand and said: "Well, thank you Miss Baihua for sending you off, I'll leave now!"
"Then please be careful on the road!" Bai Huaqin also replied, and the two parted here.
At this time, Xuzhen was in the lobby of Baihuamen, yelling to see Baihua Xiangning, and was held down by everyone, as well as the woman who tied him.
At this time, Baihuaqin walked in, saw such a scene, and asked the woman: "Assertion, what is going on?"
When he saw Baihuaqin asking, he replied: "Miss, this kid is clamoring to see the second miss, so let's hold him down!"
"If he wants to see it, why don't you let him see it?".
"But this kid is not here to get married, but to make trouble."
After listening to the assertion, Baihuaqin walked in front of the void who was held down by everyone, and he was still clamoring for Baihua Xiangning to come out, and Baihuaqin said: "Bold and false! Dare to come to Baihuamen to make trouble! Believe it or not, Miss Ben destroyed you!".
"You call your second lady out! I want to make it clear to her!"
"Hmph, what's wrong with our family Xiangning, if you don't marry, tell me!" Baihuaqin exclaimed.
"I just won't marry! I wish her never married!" Xuzhen used the loudest voice in his life, echoing in the lobby.
When Baihuaqin heard this, he immediately became angry: "Shut up! You can scold me, but you can't scold Xiangning!"
"What's wrong with me scolding her! I not only want to scold her! I also want to scold you for the entire Baihuamen!" After Xuzhen said, Baihuaqin was even more angry, and was about to step forward to fan him, but at this time, Baihuaxiang Ning outside the door walked in, already dressed in red, enchanting and moving.
"Don't make any noise" After Baihua Xiangning walked in, everyone was shocked, and even Xuzhen was stunned.
"Xiangning, don't pay attention to him, he must marry you today!" Baihuaqin persuaded when he saw Baihua Xiangning coming in.
Baihua Xiangning ignored everyone, insisted on walking in front of Xuzhen, and motioned for those disciples to let go of him: "Don't you have something to say to me?"
"I" Xuzhen saw Baihua Xiangning for the first time, and I couldn't speak.
"Say it, I'm willing to listen."
"I'm here today to quit this business," he said, not yelling like he had just now.
"What are you talking about!" Baihuaqin was on the side, and couldn't help but want to come up to catch the truth, but was stopped by Baihuaxiangning.
"I know," Baihua Xiangning said softly, with loss and sadness, "then you go, I won't force you to come again in the future."
"I'm sorry".
"You're not wrong, it's just that I'm too willful and don't love, it's just a sentence, if you don't like me, I won't be strong" When the two were talking, there was no sound in the lobby, only a gentle wind, like a sad song.
"I hope you find a better home," Xuzhen said, and walked out, leaving behind the confused crowd, and Baihua Xiangning was already silently crying at this time
The breeze walked lightly between the mountains, and soon came to a hidden waterfall, when a person was waiting for her in the dark, and when she came to the person, she half-knelt down, and presented the scroll that had been snatched from Han Shengchen's body with both hands.
The man took the scroll, touched it in his hand, and said with a smile: "Okay, I finally got it" After that, he opened it and found the riddle on it, "Hmph, there is really a fresh breeze."
"The subordinates are here!".
"You go and follow that Han Shengchen again, wait for him to find the real "Phoenix Ci", kill him and grab it!"
"This".
"Hmm, what's the problem!".
"It's not that my subordinates think it's better to just grab it and kill him."
"Qingfeng, when did you become so soft-hearted, you won't fall in love with him."
After hearing this, Qingfeng immediately bowed his head: "Disciple doesn't dare!".
"Well, then I'll let you kill him with your own hands!
"It's the subordinates who understand."
Han Shengchen was walking on the avenue at the moment, and he was heading south, preparing to reach the place under the jurisdiction of Fengxiang Mansion. Han Shengchen was tired and didn't know where to go, he wanted to go to Tianshan to find the truth, but he felt that instead of letting him suffer with him, it was better to let him stay in Tianshan and be safe. Han Shengchen kept reading the riddle on the scroll in his mouth, I don't know why, and when he arrived in Weizhou, he vaguely felt that someone was following him, he deliberately walked into the alley, and the person who was following him also came in, only to see Han Shengchen quickly jump on the wall, and quickly pulled out that person, how to look, it turned out to be Qiao Shi and a few hundred poisonous disciples, they saw Han Shengchen found that they did not run away, but just stepped forward to fight with him, but it was quickly solved by Han Shengchen.
"Why don't you give up!" Han Shengchen said as he stepped forward to beat them again.
"Hey, don't don't, we're not here to fight today!" Qiao Shi stood up, no big problem, and looked distressed, "Our boss said, we must get the "Phoenix Speech", otherwise we will be punished for staying in the Viper Cave for three days."
"That's right, you don't know how many snakes there are in that poisonous snake cave, all of them are highly poisonous, and we are also forced to be helpless" The disciple beside Qiao Shi also complained, looking worried.
"That's what you deserve, you poisonous sects do a lot of evil, hoping to be killed by your own poison one day!"
"Let's have something to discuss, let's do it, I'll give you five hundred taels, and you can give me "Phoenix Ci"!" Qiao Shi said, Han Shengchen didn't pay attention, he just wanted to turn around and leave, "Hey, don't go, or six hundred taels, seven hundred taels, one thousand taels"
Han Shengchen walked on the street again, because he had been reading the riddle, he didn't care about the bustle of the street at all, then he came to the inn, found a corner, sat down hastily, asked Xiao Er to serve wine and food, and ate, at this time the table next to him said something he was interested in. To the effect that there is a person named Tianguang Ancestor in Tianguang Mountain, not far from the eastern suburbs, he often designs a lot of topics, so that the major thieves in the rivers and lakes take it for him, and the person who gets everything will answer any of his questions, but what he answered is true, there is nothing he knows in the world, and this person has high internal strength, and all his subordinates are martial arts masters, so no one in the rivers and lakes dares to blackmail him. After hearing this, Han Shengchen suddenly had an idea, if he asked the Heavenly Light Ancestor about the riddle, wouldn't he be able to find the "Phoenix Ci"? He immediately came to the table and asked, "Two, is this person really so powerful?"
The two people at the table saw Han Shengchen coming over suddenly, and they were a little confused: "Of course, but the questions he came up with are all more difficult, and ordinary masters and thieves are helpless."
"Oh, it's harder?".
"Yes, I heard that there were eight masters in the first two years, and only one came back alive in the end, you say, how terrible is this?".
After hearing this, Han Shengchen thanked him, and headed east with curiosity and tasks. At this time, he came to the foot of a mountain and erected a monument "everything in the world is here, and all the difficulties in the world are here-Tianguang Mountain."
There is a post station there, there are a lot of horses parked outside, and there are people from the rivers and lakes inside and outside the post station, Han Shengchen also tied up the horse, entered the post station, and found a place to sit down.
This post station was full of noisy discussions, all of them were discussing the ancestor of Tianguang, Han Shengchen immediately stopped a handsome man sitting next to him, all dressed in brocade clothes, and hanging a dagger with golden scales around his waist, Han Shengchen patted him, and asked: "Dare to ask this little brother, why hasn't anyone gone up to Tianguang Mountain yet?"
"Hey, you just haven't seen the world, this day the Lord of Light is very particular, he said that if you can go up the mountain, people can go up" The man said arrogantly.
Han Shengchen nodded, indicating that he understood, and then the man said again: "What's the matter, you turtle also want to find the Tianguang Ancestor?"
"Ah, it's a little trivial here, I heard that it can be solved here, so I came," Han Shengchen said politely.
"Oh, you also want to complete the topic of the Origin of the Heavenly Light, don't think about it, you don't look at the martial arts at all, and if you go, you will be sent to death" The man shouted arrogantly, "But I'm different, do you know who my father is?"
Han Shengchen nodded pretendedly, unwilling to listen to him next to the man again, so he had to come out to breathe, at this moment, a person grabbed Han Shengchen and dragged him to the back of the post station, Han Shengchen was just about to fight back, and when he looked closely, it turned out to be Chu Xiang.
"Chu Xiang, what are you doing here?" Han Shengchen was surprised.
"I'm looking for you!" Chu Xiang still looked at it with a smile, "I heard that Tianguang Ancestor here is very powerful and knows everything, so I want to ask him where you are, who knew that you were here."
"Do you know how dangerous it is here" Han Shengchen didn't know what to say, "By the way, what are you looking for me?"
"I'm bored with Brother Li, so I want to come to you."
After hearing this, Han Shengchen was suddenly helpless, and suddenly remembered something, so he asked: "By the way, last time I asked a teenager to go to Brother Li, I don't know how he is now."
"Oh, you said that Tang Zhenqin, Brother Li likes him very much, and he teaches him martial arts every day!" Chu Xiang smiled cutely.
Just as the two were discussing, at this time a man walked down from Tianguang Mountain, looking at a man in his twenties, looking ordinary, wearing strange clothes, the group of people in the post station saw him, and immediately surrounded him, the man said: "The ancestor of Tianguang has issued an order, those who need to go up the mountain, please follow me."
"Hey, are you going up the mountain?" Chu Xiang asked when he saw that Han Shengchen seemed to be about to step forward.
"Well, you are waiting for me here," Han Shengchen said, and was about to go up, when he was pulled by Chu Xiang.
"No, no, no, I'm going too!".
"By all means, the situation on the mountain is unknown, it may be dangerous, I am afraid that your life will be lost if you go up" Han Shengchen excused himself and persuaded Chu Xiang to stay.
Chu Xiang naturally didn't give up, and said arrogantly: "If you don't let me go up with you, what if there are bad people in the post station, I can't protect myself!"
Han Shengchen was helpless and thought for a while: "Then can you go up and participate in the topic?"
Chu Xiang smiled and nodded, took Han Shengchen's hand, and followed the team, at this moment, Han Shengchen felt familiar, Chu Xiang pulled him, making him think of Qingfeng again, he looked at the back in front of him, and suddenly couldn't help but always say to grab those hands, at this moment Chu Xiang was surprised, stopped, looked back at Han Shengchen blankly, there was a hint of redness on his face, and paused: "Brother Han, what's wrong with you"
Only then did Han Shengchen come back to his senses, and only then did he know that this person was Chu Xiang, so he said slowly: "I'm fine, let's continue to go up the mountain."
Soon they passed through a secluded stone forest, and soon came to a gloomy valley, around which crows flew in unison, making strange noises, and on the tip of the valley was a black palace, very large, and it was obvious that it was the place where the Lord of the Light of Heaven was.
"Brother Han, what kind of person do you say the Ancestor of Tianguang is, living in such a terrible place" Chu Xiang hugged Han Shengchen's arm, already terrified in his heart.
"I don't know this, but I heard that he is a man with great powers and knows everything in the world."
"Everyone follow, the palace in front of you is the [Palace of Life and Death], and the Origin Master of Tianguang has been waiting for everyone for a long time!" the strange-dressed man who led the team spoke, and took the lead in stepping forward.
"Living in such an ugly place, I don't think this Tianguang Ancestor is not a god," said the handsome man who was already the second to follow in Fengxiang Mansion.
At this time, everyone had come to the open space not far from the palace, and they could reach the gate of the palace with a diameter of about a hundred steps, and the team followed the guide and walked forward, and suddenly came to a front yard full of bones, which startled Chu Xiang, who was accompanying him.
"These are the people who have died in the past after failing to challenge, and now which of you is afraid, it's not too late to leave!" The guide smiled evilly, and many people were also frightened because of it, and after thinking about it, they ran back the same way, and there were only about twenty people left
The remaining people followed the guide to continue walking, and soon came to the gate of the big palace, only to see that the whole palace is built of agarwood, this wood is also called ebony, very expensive, and 10,000 years immortal, not afraid of insects, natural, called "Oriental Sacred Wood" by the Western Regions, it can be seen that the ancestor of this day is not small.
"It's actually agarwood, who is this Tianguang Ancestor!" Everyone was talking chaotically about this Tianguang Ancestor who had never seen it, and at this time, the official young master on the side couldn't see it, so he said: "What are you excited about! If I call my father a whole palace, it will definitely be more magnificent than this!"
"Hey, Brother Han, look at that person, he is so good at talking big!" Chu Xiang laughed, and Han Shengchen also laughed lightly, but he was unexpectedly discovered by the young master official.
He looked embarrassed, and when he saw them in front of Han Shengchen, he discovered Chu Xiang's face, and his face became softer: "Oh, there is another beauty here" was about to touch Chu Xiang's cheek with her hand, but she slapped it away, and at this time a lewd smile leaked out, "Dare to ask the girl's name?"
"Why should I tell you, I'll only tell Brother Han" Chu Xiang showed a proud face, hugged Han Shengchen's arm tightly, and ignored the man.
When the man heard this, he was immediately unconvinced, so he said to Han Shengchen: "Boy! Yanfu is not shallow, but you will not be so lucky later!" The man said, and suddenly, the gate of the palace opened.
There was a gust of wind inside, and everyone stared blankly, and soon the doors were all opened, and at this time, a child also dressed in strange clothes appeared in front of everyone.
"Welcome to this deity, the Ancestor of the Light," the child said, with an undeserved maturity in his words.
