Chapter 2 Soaring Biliao, or the road to immortality can be expected
Lingyi'er's cowardly state is only fleeting. After settling down, she said in a normal tone as much as possible: "Wake up, have you heard of the South China Sea Water Marquis?"
"yes. β
Xingyan thought about it, but he was not sure, so he said to confirm: "Is it the water god of the South China Sea who painted your portrait and observed it from time to time?"
β...... yes!"
Ling Yi'er smacked lightly when she heard this, and then said seriously: "Well, it's this boring third prince of the South China Sea, Meng Zhang, who sent someone to invite him a few days ago, saying that the sea in his Lingrui Palace is blooming, and he wants to invite all kinds of immortal friends to enjoy the flowers." The period of cherry blossom viewing is set for tomorrow night, and we have also got two invitations to the Dragon Palace. β
"Originally, I had been escorted by General Floating to escort me in this way, but this time, I would like to ask you to accompany me, so that you, the master of the Daomen Hall, can open your eyes and see what Haitan, which has only bloomed for half a decade in five hundred years, looks like. β
"I see!"
After listening to Lingyi's words, Xingyan was also very excited. You must know that the South China Sea Dragon Palace, compared with the Four Desecration Dragon Palace, must be a different atmosphere, and it is natural to be able to see and hear about it.
It's just that in addition to being excited, he suddenly thought of a question, so he asked Lingyi: "Then we will go tomorrow night, when will we come back?"
It turned out that he was thinking about the South China Sea Dragon Palace, which was thousands of miles away from here, and he didn't know how many months it would take. When he was worried, Ling Yi'er seemed to see his thoughts, so she smiled and said: "Don't worry about it, the South China Sea Flower Banquet is scheduled for tomorrow night, and we can take the dragon and horse to go, and we can come to the morning and evening." β
At this time, Lingyi seemed to have arrived at the banquet that attracted everyone's attention, and his words and demeanor became extremely elegant and dignified.
Seeing that she said this, it didn't seem like she was joking, so she put her mind at ease and agreed: "Okay, then the hall master is better to be respectful than to obey." If you can go back the day after tomorrow, you can still catch up with Qiong Wei Xueyi to enjoy the moon in the Mid-Autumn Festival. β
Seeing him agree, Lingyi'er was overjoyed, and hurriedly handed a silver-shining invitation to Xingyan. When Xingyan looked at the invitation carefully, Ling Yi'er turned her face and spoke to the two good sisters: "Qiong Wei, Xue Yi, come here, this time, I brought a small gift for each of you!"
So, Qiong Wei got a pair of dragon Jin Chuan from her, and Xue Yi got a crested pearl hairpin. When accepting the gift, Qiong Wei took it first and then thanked him sweetly, while Xue Yi put it off for a while, and only accepted it after the awakening words agreed. So the three girls began to help each other wear jewelry and discuss the experience of clothing.
The pair of shining gold chuan that Qiong Wei obtained seemed to be too large, but when she put on her wrist, the golden dragon that turned into a bracelet automatically shrank, just in line with her jade arm. And Xueyi's pearl hairpin, the pearl grains are round and smooth, and the dark light is dark, which is obviously not taken from ordinary pearl mussels.
Seeing that Lingyi was talking lively, after Xingyan read the invitation, he also came over to joke: "Sister Qiong Wei, you see how partial your sister Lingyi is; β
After that, Xingyan pretended to be heartbroken.
Who knows, as soon as he finished saying this, the Lingyi'er immediately turned around and said happily: "I know that you want to say this!"
"Oh, this purse is for you!"
As she spoke, Ling Yi'er took off a sachet from her waist and handed it to Xingyan generously.
"It's ......"
Xingyan took the sachet handed by Lingyi, put it in his hand and looked at it, and found that the bright yellow sachet was silky and soft, and it was very light. Raise it to your nose and sniff it, and you will smell a faint fragrance. And on the mouth of this sachet, there are two pearls, which are shining brightly.
Seeing these two pearls, Xingyan felt that they seemed to be similar to the ones adorned on the Xue Yi bead hairpin, but they were slightly larger. After asking Lingyi, I learned that the pearl on this pearl hairpin sachet is the pearl of the merman of the South China Sea. According to Lingyi, the merman who lives in the South China Sea is usually very difficult to get emotional, and once he cries, his tears will condense into beads. Not only does the pearl come from the shark people, but the silk of this sachet is also woven by the shark people in the South China Sea, named "Jiao silk yarn". In the Dragon Domain of the South China Sea where they will go tomorrow night, there is a palace called "Dragon Silk Palace", which is the place where the mermaids weave dragon yarn.
After listening to the origin of the silk yarn shark beads, he smelled the fragrant fragrance in the sachet again, which was not like the fragrance of lavender leaves and dried jasmine flowers in the ordinary purse, so he asked Lingyi what was filled in it. After listening to his questioning, Lingyi'er praised his nose spirit, and then told him that the sachet was filled with "dragon grass".
Hearing the name of the dragon grass, Xingyan immediately thought that this grass seemed to be the legendary fairy grass, if it was eaten by a horse, it could make it a thousand miles a day; in particular, it is said that this dragon grass is an ordinary herb that has been transformed by the dragon's saliva - thinking of this allusion, although Xingyan wanted to ask Lingyi if this was really the case; however, he secretly glanced at the dragon princess's sandalwood lips, and after weighing it, he still pressed this curiosity.
However, this observation made him find that Ling Yi'er's face was a little angry. Seeing this, Xingyan thought in a panic: "Could it be that Lingyi has a mind-reading technique, do you know that I am pondering her saliva?"
Just as he was thinking nonsense, the dragon girl finally couldn't help but remind him: "Wake up, how about you look at the embroidered patterns on the sachet!"
Hearing her say this, the master of the Four Seas Hall, who had been only looking at the material of the purse, noticed that there was a pattern on the surface of the sachet.
After taking a closer look, Xingyan found that unlike Luo Pa last time, this time the Lingyi sachet was embroidered with a few touches of clouds and distant mountains, and there were a few fluttering birds in the middle, which were also vivid. It seems that Lingyi girl has learned the lesson of the last time, and instead of embroidering mandarin duck lotuses, she went to embroider the lake scenery she is familiar with.
However, despite this, the patterns on the sachet are still a bit freehand. So Xingyan sincerely thanked Lingyi for giving her the first purse she embroidered.
Hearing him say this, Lingyi was a little surprised, pursed her lips and smiled, and told him a little embarrassed that in fact, this sachet was not the first one she sewed, and she had made two or three before, but either the stitches were sparse or the embroidery was not satisfactory, and they were all reamed.
Hearing her say this, it was a pity to wake up. Seeing his regretful appearance, Lingyi was embarrassed to tell him anyway, it turned out that at the beginning, she also wanted to hide the few failed sachets as a souvenir. But after thinking about it, I felt that it was not safe to hide anywhere, and if there was a chance to be turned over by the awakening in the future, I would use it to make fun of her......
Thinking about his thoughts at that time, Ze Rao is Lingyi has a hearty temperament, and he can't help but be full of Xia Fei!
Seeing that she suddenly blushed, she didn't know why, but she was embarrassed to ask her. chatted for a while, and saw Xingyan looking at the sachet over and over again, obviously liking it very much, so Lingyier decided to make him a female red next time to consolidate his skills. After soliciting some opinions, Lingyi took Qiong Wei's little sister's suggestion and prepared to embroider a money bag for Xingyan.
"Hey, that's how he will cherish it the most!"
Hearing their decision, the Four Seas Hall Master, who usually cherishes money, was a little embarrassed. So when Lingyi asked him what logos to embroider on the money bag, Xingyan solemnly suggested that he hoped to embroider such a line on the money bag: "In the field of fame and fortune, the hometown of morality"
It's just that although this sentence is good, it is a little longer, and it makes it difficult for the dragon princess who is strong in spells and weak in female red for a while - these two sentences add up, there are as many as twelve words, I'm afraid she won't be able to embroider it for a while. So in the end, it was decided to simply embroider the words "Zhang Xingyan".
Such a trivial matter, Xingyan and Lingyi talked about it with great relish. Before you know it, it's time to do it. Suddenly, the night outside the window was thick, and after Lingyi told a few words, he reluctantly disappeared.
Nothing was said all night.
The next day, not long after the sun rose, a cloud suddenly covered the originally sparse sky.
After a while, the master of the Four Seas Hall, who was explaining matters with the second daughter in the small courtyard of the inn, saw the dragon girl from last night dressed up, falling from the sky, and stood in front of him in an instant. At this time, Xingyan had already told the owner that all the wings in the courtyard would be chartered, so as not to be peeped at by idlers.
When he saw Lingyi again, he realized that today was the first time he had seen her wear such a beautiful palace dress. The dazzling dress embroidered with the pattern of the cloud bird is enveloping her slender figure, and the snow-white silk skirt is like a flowing cloud. Outside her gorgeous skirt, she was covered with an ice silver veil, almost transparent, like a cloud of smoke shrouded outside her skirt. On her shoulders, she was wearing a silver cloud brocade shawl, and when she moved, two long pink and green skirts danced in the wind, floating in opposite patterns beside her. And the bright red gemstone on her forehead sets off a bit of unique luxury for her in addition to her fairy appearance.
When he was watching in a daze, he didn't expect the girl who was like a fairy and a saint, lightly opened her lips, and said with a smile: "Hall Master Zhang, can you take the clouds and swim with me?"
So in the silent atrium, the white clouds suddenly surged like steam, and the girl with misty temples stretched out her slender hand to hold the master of the hall like a dream, and in a moment the two of them had risen to the sky in a white cloud.
Before ascending into the clouds, Ling Yi'er, who was already dressed in Xianli Palace clothes, still did not forget to make a grimace and say goodbye to the second girl on the ground: "Qiong Wei, Xue Yi, we are leaving, and after a day, I will return the hall master to you." β
When she and Xingyan ascended into the misty white clouds in the sky together, the little Qiong Wei, who was looking forward to say goodbye on the ground, pulled her sister's sleeve and said, "Sister Xueyi, let's go into the house and read the scriptures arranged by my brother." β
As soon as Qiong Wei said this, the Meixue elf woke up like a dream, took her sister's hand, and went back to the house together.
Speaking of awakening again, he was pulled by Lingyi and flew into the clouds, and then saw that in the smoky white clouds, there was a beautiful carriage with silver glittering light half-hidden. The richly decorated silver horse resembles a luxurious seat, and it is just right to sit in it with Lingyi, unobstructed in all directions, just for the view. In front of the carriage's clouds, there were four very white horses, with manes like snow, and there was no trace of variegation on their bodies.
Different from ordinary horses, the white horse in front of him is covered with fine silver scale armor on all four legs, as if it is a common dragon scale in paintings. Waiting for Lingyi to scream, these divine horses became clouds on all fours, pulling the two of them in the cloud void towards the south.
When the dragon horse flew, Lingyi saw that Xingyan was still staring at the horses, so he told him with a smile: "Xingyan, these horses are the dragon horses raised by my family." β
"Oh? Ryoma?"
Hearing Lingyi speak, he woke up like waking up from a dream.
Seeing his curiosity, Lingyi introduced him with great interest: "Awakening, you don't know, in the depths of that Yunmeng Daze, there is a ranch of our Siyun Dragon Palace, called 'Liuyun Mu'. In the Liuyun herding, there are many rare birds and beasts. These dragon horses are the war horses of our four dragon clans in the Liuyun Pasture. β
"These dragon horses, if used as war horses, are extremely brave, and they are very famous among the gods and demons!"
In fact, there is no need for Lingyi to praise too much, seeing these galloping horses in front of him like lightning and flying without wings, Xingyan has long been speechless.
By the time his amazement had subsided, the dragon horse had broken through the clouds and galloped above the clouds. At this time, Xingyan realized that the ethereal clouds that he had seen on the ground now seemed to be real. Looking around, I saw that the white clouds under the car were like snowfields stretching for thousands of miles, with white lights flashing everywhere and snow hills stretching. The dragon horse is like a thunderbolt, and the scaly hooves fly through the clouds, as if galloping on the snowfield, and the hooves and feet splash with bursts of smoke.
However, this seemingly endless cloud and snow plain was rushed to the end by the galloping dragon horse in a short time. Before stepping onto another cloud and snow hill, in the endless void, a cloud of ice and snow dust rose from under Ryoma's feet, and he trampled towards the distance and continued to gallop away.
Seeing such a scene, the young man who was being blown by the long wind of the sky suddenly realized it for a while!
Seeing him like this, but half-convinced, Lingyi, whose heart was like a spirit of ice and snow, smiled and whispered in his ear, "You should be able to." β
ββThis whisper, like a thunderclap, exploded the stagnant thoughts, and suddenly made Xingyan suddenly realize! The water came naturally, and the mind was there, and the surroundings of Xingyan were immediately filled with ice, snow and smoke clouds condensed by the Dragon Palace's divine technique "Ice Heart Knot".
It's just that, although he is blessed to his soul and has an epiphany in an instant, after all, he is now in a cold high place, and he still doesn't dare to leave the car easily and try the art of driving clouds.
"Well, let's wait until we get to the ground and try slowly. β
Although it can't be used rashly, once I figured out the art of flying clouds and fog, I was in a very comfortable mood. When I was relaxed, I and the girl in the same car concentrated on enjoying the beautiful scenery around me.
At this time, Lingyi had already slowed down Long Si, and the car under the two of them was slowly moving forward in the boundless Biliao.
Soaring above this cloudy sky, looking around, it is the silence of the universe, and the eight winds do not fly. The blue that used to be seen on the ground has now settled under the white clouds, and the sky above the sky is showing a faint clear color. In the vast and boundless sky, only the two of them remained, four horses, and one cart. Suddenly, a strange feeling rose in Xingyan's heart: being in the extremely wide, extremely clear and extremely wide sky, looking at the ever-changing white clouds and dogs, in an instant, it seemed that he could see through the fog that had covered him for thousands of years, and see the distant time that spanned the present and the ancient. Those never-ending years seem to pass away without a trace in front of their eyes with those unpredictable clouds.
In a trance, this young man who was only born in the mountains of Raozhou seemed to see something he had never seen before.
At the time when he was concentrating on such a state of mind and being as vast as Feihan, the young man who soared Yuyu for the first time suddenly seemed to be unable to bear such an illusion of seeing through the vicissitudes of life, and he was unstable and fell to his side. So I only heard a soft snort, and the goddess, who was also unconscious, silently hugged the young man with her soft shoulders after the initial shock.
After some time, when Xingyan came to his senses and found the embarrassment in front of him, he apologized and sat up again.
It's just that after a while, the girl beside him leaned quietly and gently leaned her head on the shoulder of the young man who was sitting precariously......
When the red sun in the western sky sinks to the clouds, and the fiery clouds reflect the sky as red as blood for half a day, the dragon horse of Lingyi comes to the sky over the sparkling South China Sea. At this time, Lingyi had already lowered the cart and let the dragon pull Xingyan and himself, running together on the waves of the South China Sea.
For Xingyan, this is the first time he has seen the vastness of the ocean. When he saw the ocean for the first time, he knew that in this world, there are also water pools that can be as vast as the sky. The watery Poyang Lake is no longer windless and waves, and the boundless ocean under this foot is like a horse and the waves are like a wall.
Looking down, the strong-minded Four Seas Hall Master actually felt a little dizzy.
And in the midst of these stormy waves, I occasionally see that on the surface of the sea hundreds of miles round, it is like a pot of boiling water, the stormy waves are swept like a rush, and the huge water columns stand upright like mountains, rushing like beasts, as if they want to break free from the shackles of the ocean, and want to crash straight into the car in the clouds.
In a trance, the young man who was high in the sky felt as if there were wet droplets of water spilling on his face.
Just as Xingyan saw the hurricane waves of the ocean and sighed at the miracle of creation, the Lingyi said softly to himself: "Hmm...... Could it be that Sister Xi is casting a spell?"
In this way, after flying over the vast South China Sea for more than half an hour, the sunset that fell from the clouds fell on the surface of the sea, reflecting the blue water like dyeing Danwo.
Looking at the surrounding scenery, Lingyi told Xingyan that they were almost at the domain of the Dragon God of the South China Sea.
At this time, the young man who was looking around greedily in the sea breeze suddenly pointed to the distance and asked in surprise: "Lingyi, what is that?!ββ is it a mirage?"
It turned out that at the place where the water and the sky met and the light met, in the hazy waves of twilight, a majestic building suddenly appeared, with full shadows and shadows, and the eaves were faint, half-sinking and half-floating in the distant waves.
Hearing Xingyan's startled question, Lingyi turned his face to take a glance in the direction of his finger, and told him that the city tower was not a mirage, but one of the eight floating cities of the Dragon God of the South China Sea.
"Eight Floating Cities?"
The first time I heard about it, Xingyan looked curious. I only heard the four desecrated dragon girls continue to answer him: "Yes, these eight floating cities were built by the grandfather of the dragon god of the South China Sea to guard the sea frontier. Unlike my family's Sishui Mansion, this South China Sea Dragon Domain is not very peaceful. β
"Maybe you haven't heard of it, in the depths of the waves of the South China Sea, there is a mysterious ghost domain, called the Candle Ghost Fang, among which there is the Candle Ghost Mother, and there are countless ghosts under her hands. The ghost mother and ghosts often intrude on the creatures of the South China Sea, so in order to ensure the safety of the waters, the dragon god grandfather built eight floating cities thousands of years ago, which can quickly drift in the South China Sea;
Obviously, as a princess of the dragon clan, Lingyi is more familiar with these dragon anecdotes, and she is familiar with these dragon anecdotes. As for Xingyan, although his previous experience was extraordinary, he now strongly felt that all his previous experiences seemed to be less abundant than what he had seen in one day today.
Looking at the magnificent castle floating in the waves in the distance, Xingyan secretly thought in his heart: "Yo, when I can fight the sword thousands of miles in the future, I will also bring Qiong Wei Xueyi and them to open their eyes!"
When he changed his mind, this Shangqing Dao Sect Master didn't notice that just as their dragon horse was getting closer and closer to the floating city, the "Si You" Underworld Ring between his left hand suddenly swam with a burst of ghostly light.
"It's here!"
The girl, who was unaware, screamed happily, and drove the dragon horse to fly down from the sky, and she was about to split into waves.
It's just that at this moment, the two of them suddenly heard two "chirps", and suddenly two things fell from the sky and fell into the waves beside them.
And the turmoil around them has been soaked in the sunset at this moment, and it is peaceful, and there is no sinister appearance.
