Chapter 3, I heard bad news in the green cave

By the water pool, an old man and a young man sat on a boulder and talked to each other. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Little friend, don't worry, listen to me slowly, speaking of which, this is also a piece of your immortal fate, let me ask you, three years ago on Hengyun Ridge, did you save a deer?"

"Three years ago。。。。。。 Three years ago。。。。。。 By the way, when I went up to the mountain to collect mushrooms, I came across a wounded fawn, so I hid it in a cave, bandaged it, and got it some water and food every day. But sir, how do you know about this?"

"That's right, you know that it was the fawn that saved you and brought you to me this time. ”

"Xiaolu saved me?" Shangguan Yun became even more confused.

"Yes, that fawn is not an ordinary fawn, but the princess of the demon king in this mountain, three years ago the demon king went out and did not return, the subordinate leopard spirit rebelled, the princess was injured and escaped, but you were unintentionally rescued. This time she happened to be in distress, so she saved you and sent you to me. ”

"Then you are a fairy! Grandpa Fairy, what is happening to my father now, please save him too!"

"Little friend, please get up and listen to me. I don't know about your father, so let's talk about it when you meet the princess. It's just that you know why you stayed here for half a year before I came to see you. ”

"I don't know, I thought it wasn't inhabited. ”

"I waited until now to show up, in fact, it is for this fruit in your hand, this is not an ordinary fruit, it is the most famous Nine Dragons Zhu Fruit in this world, only where our descendants of the dragon clan live. This flower has nine leaves and one fruit, the fruit ripens every five hundred years, and only bears one fruit each time, mortals can be reborn when they take it, and immortals can increase Taoism and mana. If it weren't for the fairy princess pleading and agreeing to exchange it for me, I wouldn't have agreed to leave this Nine Dragons Zhuguo to you. In the past few months, I have been waiting for this vermilion fruit to ripen, so I came to see you today. ”

"Grandpa Fairy, I don't want this fairy fruit, you take me to see the princess, I want to see my father. ”

"That's not good, I've already promised the princess! Come, you take this zhu guo first, and I'll take you to the princess." ”

Hearing the old man's insistence, Shangguan Yun didn't say more, and swallowed the zhu fruit in one bite, which didn't seem to be tasting any fairy fruit at all, but like swallowing poison.

When the fruit entered his abdomen, Shangguan Yun only felt that a hot breath in his abdomen suddenly rose, and an indescribable feeling of comfort spread to his limbs, and he suddenly felt sleepy, and he had fallen asleep unconsciously.

When he woke up, Shangguan Yun found that the scenery in the valley had changed, and the original thick snow had dissipated at some point, and the old man of the Gan Tuo clan was still sitting cross-legged opposite him.

"Grandpa Fairy, how long have I been asleep here?"

"You've been sleeping for seven days, so go wash up first. Then I'll take you to the princess. ”

Shangguan Yun looked down and found that his whole body was covered with a layer of black dirt, so he hurriedly took off his clothes and jumped off the rock, but he didn't expect that he was suddenly as light as a swallow.

"This is the benefit of Zhu Guo?" Shangguan Yun was pleasantly surprised, hurriedly washed his body, returned to the rock, got dressed, and knelt down facing the old man.

"Thank you for the fairy fruit of Grandpa Fairy!"

The old man smiled faintly, and with a flick of his sleeves, a soft wind helped Shangguan Yun up.

"Don't thank me, thank the princess if you want to thank me, but maybe I will have something to do for me in the future, and you don't have to excuse yourself when the time comes, even if you eat a lot of good things in my valley to compensate." ”

"Immortal Grandpa, I, Shangguan Yun, am by no means ungrateful, but if there is something I can do, I will never give up!"

"That's good, I'm a thousand mountains, you remember! Go, I'll take you to the princess." ”

After speaking, the old man named Negative Qianshan grabbed Shangguan Yun's hand, and after only one pause, he disappeared from the valley.

Shangguan Yun only felt a flower in front of him, and the scene in front of him had completely changed, only to feel that his eyes were bright, and he was already in front of a cave. I saw a colorful gravel road in front of the door of this cave, there are dense bamboo forests on both sides, there is a plaque on the cave, the word "Qingming" is written on it, on both sides of the door of the cave, there is also a couplet engraved:

Thousands of mountains, grass and trees are my king, and I am the only one who has ten thousand demons

In front of the gate of the cave, there are two tall white spirit apes, which seem to be the guardians of the cave.

"Da Yuan, your princess is here? The old man brought the person he wanted. Negative Qianshan took a step forward and said to the spirit ape on the left.

"My princess is not here, but Lord Lingjun is here, please come in. ”

"Isn't the princess here?" Negative Qianshan's heart moved, and he turned his head to look at Shangguan Yun, "Little friend, come in with me." ”

Shangguan Yun hurriedly followed behind the Negative Thousand Mountains, walked into the cave, and when he could enter the door, he found that although the cave was not big, it had a cave, and there were several night pearls on the stone walls on both sides, which made the cave glorious, and there was a burst of strange fragrance, wafting from the mouths of the copper cranes on both sides.

The owner of the cave was sitting on a sandalwood chair, but it turned out to be a middle-aged woman with a good demeanor, only to see that she had a flying fairy bun on the top of her head, wearing a white fairy robe, willow eyebrows and phoenix eyes, and her complexion was as clear as the jade of Kunshan.

"Is this Shangguan Yun?" the woman asked.

"Yes, this is the person who Qingxi girl handed over to me. If nothing else, the old man will go back. ”

"Slow down, I won't send it!" The woman's voice was cold, and she couldn't hear the slightest emotion.

Negative Qianshan didn't say much, turned his head to look at Shangguan Yun, turned around and walked out the door.

"Shangguan Yun, do you know who I am?"

"Are you Lord Lingjun?" Shangguan Yun still remembered that Da Yuan's words.

"Well, I am the Demon King Lingjun, you saved my daughter, I thank you in advance!"

Shangguan Yungang wanted to say something, but the demon king continued, "I know what you want to ask me, I can only tell you that your father is dead. ”

"Daddy... ”

Hearing the bad news, Shangguan Yun suddenly stood for a while as if he had been struck by lightning, and then cried loudly, and the demon king Lingjun did not stop him, allowing Shangguan Yun to sobble and wither to the ground.

I don't know how long it took for Shangguan Yun to stop his grief, raise his head and ask, "Lord Lingjun, I don't know where my father's remains are?"

"Great Yuan," Lord Lingjun called.

"My subordinates are here, I don't know what the king commands?" The white ape outside the cave appeared at the door of the cave and bowed deeply to Lord Lingjun.

"Take him to his father, and bring him again. ”

"Yes!" the white ape glanced at Shangguan Yun and said in a low voice, "Come with me." ”

Shangguan Yun got up and followed the white ape and walked out, out of the cave door, through a path through the bamboo forest on the right hand, not far away, suddenly saw a cave at the cliff, there was a plaque at the entrance of the cave, on which the ancient seal was written "frost cave".

Entering the cave, Shangguan Yun only felt a burst of cold air rushing to his face, and the deeper he went, the more cold it became. On the stone walls on both sides of the cave, there are some night pearls exuding a green light every ten steps, so the cave is not dark, and there are some opposite portals on both sides of the cave, but they are all tightly locked, and I don't know what is hidden in it. That Da Yuan led Shangguan Yun around the cave, and finally stopped in front of a white jade door, only to see Da Yuan press it casually on the stone wall, and the white jade door quietly rose.

"When you arrive, come with me. Da Yuan turned his head to Shangguan Yun and said.

Shangguan Yun hurriedly stepped forward, only to see a jade bed in front of him, in which his father was lying quietly, but on his forehead, there was a bead the size of a walnut, which was emitting a faint light.

"Dad!" Shangguan Yun couldn't help but rush forward, hugged his father and cried, but no matter how he called, his father would never respond.

"Alright, come with me to meet Lord Lingjun. That Da Yuan said, no matter how Shangguan Yun struggled, he dragged him out, and then the white jade gate quietly descended.

"Let me look at my father again!" Shangguan Yun begged bitterly. That Da Yuan was unmoved, he simply held Shangguan Yun up with one hand, turned around and walked towards the outside of the frost cave.

After a while, the big Yuan carried Shangguan Yun back to the outside of the Qingying Cave, put Shangguan Yun down gently, and said to him, "Go in, Lord Lingjun still has something to tell you." ”

In desperation, Shangguan Yun walked into the cave mansion and stared blankly at Lord Lingjun on the seat, but he still couldn't help sobbing.

Lord Lingjun was still expressionless, and only said "Don't cry!", Shangguan Yun felt at a loss in his heart, and suddenly quieted down.

"Have you seen your father?" asked Lord Lingjun.

"Hmm," Shangguan Yun nodded.

"Your father is saved. Lord Lingjun said lightly.

Shangguan Yun was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then bowed his head and bowed, "King, save my father, let me be a cow and a horse for anything!"

"It's not necessary to be a cow or a horse, it's just that my princess has saved you once before, and the matter of you saving her is also settled, and if you want me to help you, you have to do one thing for me. ”

"Speak, my lord. ”

"You're in a hurry, but what I want you to do is not easy, and it may be life-threatening. ”

"Even if it's difficult, I'll do it!" Shangguan Yun said with a resolute expression.

"Well, that's good, it's just what I want you to do, and now you can't do it, so let's go to rest with Da Yuan first, come to me tomorrow morning, and I'll tell you again,"

After speaking, Lord Lingjun flicked his long sleeves, and Shangguan Yun had already arrived outside the cave.

"Come with me. That Da Yuan didn't wait for Shangguan Yun's words, turned around and left. Shangguan Yun had no choice but to follow behind Da Yuan and walk silently along the colorful stone path. After a while, he came to a wing room, and Da Yuan stopped, turned back to Shangguan Yun and said, "You go in and rest, I'll come to you tomorrow morning, remember not to run around, it's very dangerous here." Then he walked away.
