Chapter 342: Seventeen Years of Waiting for Jiang Feng's Return
Blue Moon Star, in the palace of the capital of the Tang Dynasty in the Eastern Soil, in a certain palace, a gray-haired, skinny old man was sitting in this empty palace. Two meters in front of him, an oval light door suspended thirty or forty centimeters above the ground was opening.
This old man's name is Jiang Daotian, and he was originally a monk with a strong cultivation. But in a catastrophe thirty-seven years ago, the old man not only lost his family, but also lost his cultivation. Now he is just an ordinary old man, an old man who is already dying and about to enter the earth.
Jiang Daotian has been in this palace for seventeen years. For seventeen years, in front of Jiang Daotian, the oval-shaped light gate has been open. In order to support this light gate, Jiang Daotian spent a large amount of spirit stones. These spirit stones were almost all of his net worth when he was a monk.
Now, there are not many spirit stones left in Jiang Daotian. And after losing his cultivation, he has no ability to obtain spirit stones again. I believe that it will not be long before the light door in front of him will close.
The reason why he stayed here and supported this light gate for seventeen years was because seventeen years ago, Jiang Daotian's only grandson and the only bloodline of the Jiang family entered the dark underworld through this light gate. From that moment on, it never came back.
People who only need to know a little bit about the Black Underworld know the Dao, and those who are weak in cultivation are basically sent to death. And once you get lost in it, you are dead. Seventeen years ago, Jiang Daotian's grandson not only did not have any cultivation, but was also a mentally incomplete person. In this situation, no one believes that he can still live.
In fact, even Jiang Daotian himself didn't believe that his grandson was still alive. But he has nothing left, and perhaps holding up this door of light can bring a glimmer of hope. Even if it was a glimmer of unreal hope, Jiang Daotian was willing to persist in his lifetime.
Someone once persuaded Jiang Daotian, but he didn't listen. For seventeen years, he has set up his home in this palace, guarding this door of light day and night. In order to just light a lamp for his grandson who disappeared into the dark underworld.
Jiang Daotian, who was dying of old age, slowly raised his head, he looked at the light gate, and there were no tears in his eyes. His tears have long since dried up, and it can be said that his heart has long since died.
Suddenly, a dull voice came from the door of light. Jiang Daotian's whole person was shocked, and he tried his best to open his eyes and look towards the light gate.
The noise continued, and it grew louder. Jiang Daotian heard it clearly, it should be footsteps, and it was not the footsteps of one person, it sounded like there should be two people.
In seventeen years, nothing has appeared in this light gate, not even a sound. This time there was a voice, and Jiang Daotian was not much excited. Because he hasn't gotten so confused that he deceives himself. Especially when he heard that the footsteps were two people, Jiang Daotian would not think that it was his grandson who came back.
Inside the light gate, two figures appeared. It was two people who were supporting each other. Under Jiang Daotian's gaze, the two men walked out of the darkness in the light gate. When their faces passed through the light gate, Jiang Daotian's whole person was shocked. His body trembled, and his face was full of disbelief.
Walking out of the light gate were two people, a man and a woman. On the man's shoulder, there was a small white beast. These two people and one beast are Jiang Feng and Lan Wu, as well as the little bell. The two of them found the door of light in the dark space and walked out. After coming out, they saw Jiang Daotian standing up tremblingly.
"Master...... Grandpa, you're grandpa. Jiang Feng, who walked out of the light gate, said in great surprise. In the next second, as soon as Jiang Feng's eyes were closed, the whole person passed out.
"Xiao Feng, Xiao Feng, is it you?" Jiang Daotian, who had already stood up, trembled and threw himself towards Jiang Feng.
Lan Wu, who was holding Jiang Feng who had passed out, stretched out a hand to block Jiang Daotian, who had not yet approached. Her eyes were full of wariness. She had never heard Jiang Feng say that he had a grandfather, in fact, she had never heard Jiang Feng say anything about his family. I didn't expect to meet Jiang Feng's grandfather in this situation.
"It's Xiao Feng, it's really Xiao Feng. It's my little maple that's back. Under the stop of Lan Wu, Jiang Daotian did not approach. He looked at Jiang Feng carefully and determined that this was Jiang Feng who disappeared seventeen years ago. Jiang Daotian cried with joy, and tears flowed down his eyes again.
Although Lan Wu was seriously injured, she could easily see that Jiang Daotian did not have any cultivation. After discovering that Jiang Daotian did not pose any threat, Lan Wu looked around and found that this was a palace.
"Is this your home?" Lan Wu asked.
Jiang Daotian, who was crying with joy, reacted after a few seconds. He hurriedly shook his head and said, "No, this is a palace in the palace of the Tang Dynasty. My home is not here. Who are you, and how could my grandson be hurt like this?"
"Take me back to your own home. He needed a place to heal. Lan Wu said. She didn't answer Jiang Daotian's question.
"Okay, okay, come with me, I have pills at home. Jiang Daotian began to turn around as he spoke, and walked towards the door tremblingly.
At this moment, the closed door was suddenly opened, and two soldiers in armor and long knives appeared at the door. When they saw that there were two more people in the palace, they immediately drew the long knives at their waists and greeted them.
"Who are you, and why are you here?" asked one of the two soldiers.
"It's my grandson who came back, and it's Jiang Feng who came back. I'm going to take him home, please let me go. Jiang Daotian said.
The two soldiers were stunned. The two of them are guarding the gate of the palace, and they are usually responsible for delivering food to Jiang Daotian. They also know what Jiang Daotian is doing here. But he never thought that Jiang Feng would come back one day.
The soldier was stunned and didn't get out of the way, and the knife in his hand was still pointing at Jiang Feng. Lan Wu was helping Jiang Feng to walk forward, and when she saw that the two soldiers didn't get out of the way, she stretched out her hand, and the two soldiers flew to the side. Then Lan Wu grabbed Jiang Daotian, and flew out of the palace with Jiang Daotian and flew into the air outside.
"Show the way. Lan Wu said.
Jiang Daotian hurriedly showed Lan Wu the way, and Lan Wu took Jiang Feng and Jiang Daotian and flew towards Jiang Daotian's home. Jiang Daotian's home, just outside the imperial city, was originally a very large mansion, but after all these years, this mansion has long been abandoned, and it is overgrown with weeds. Not even a decent house can be found.
After flying to this abandoned mansion, Lan Wu took a look in the air, looked for a fairly complete house, and took Jiang Feng and Jiang Daotian down. Then he entered the room and put Jiang Feng on the dusty bed. Jiang Daotian also hurriedly ran out of the house and entered another house. A moment later, he returned with a wooden box stained with dirt.
"There's an elixir in it, give it to him. Jiang Daotian took out a storage ring from the wooden box and handed it to Lan Wu as he said.
Lan Wu just glanced at the ring, only said no, and reached out to touch Jiang Feng's hand, and then a handful of pills appeared in his hand. She directly stuffed the pill into Jiang Feng's mouth, and then took out the purple jade wine jug and poured Jiang Feng a few sips of wine. After that, he also took the pill and drank a few sips of ice and fire wine. Then, Lan Wu leaned directly on the bed and did it to the ground.
"How is Xiao Feng, will there be anything?" Jiang Daotian asked very nervously.
"It's okay, he can't die. Your body is weak, sit back and rest. Lan Wu lowered her head and said.
Although Jiang Daotian had no cultivation, he could still see that Lan Wu was also seriously injured. He helped Jiang Feng all the way from Lan Wu to come over, and gave Jiang Feng the pill first, and then ate it himself. After settling Jiang Feng, she rested, and Jiang Daotian could see that the relationship between Lan Wu and Jiang Feng must be very good.
"What is this place?" asked Lan Wu after a moment's rest.
"Blue Moon, this is Blue Moon. Jiang Daotian said.
"Blue Moon, is it the Blue Moon of the Foggy North Star?" Lan Wu said with a shocked expression.
Hearing Lan Wu say this, Jiang Daotian also showed a hint of surprise. Because now there are not many people who know the North Star of the Dao Fog. He nodded slightly, and replied to Lan Wu. Then Lan Wu stopped talking. She sat down cross-legged and began to heal.
In the imperial palace of the capital, a middle-aged man wearing a purple gold dragon robe stood up with a shocked face. He looked surprised and said, "What, someone has come out of the passage to the Black Netherworld. Do you really see clearly?"
In front of this man, two soldiers stood, and on either side stood several minister-like people. Those two soldiers were the soldiers guarding the palace where Jiang Daotian was. One of the soldiers hurriedly said, "Back to Your Majesty, we didn't see the process. At that time, we were guarding outside, and when we heard movement inside, we went in to look, but who knew that Lu Dao saw that in addition to Jiang Daotian, there were two more men, a woman and two more. Jiang Daotian also said that his grandson had returned. Then we were opened by the woman, and they left. ”
"Come back, how is this possible. The middle-aged man in the purple gold dragon robe said softly, and sat back little by little.
At the same time, in another place within the palace, a young woman in a phoenix robe also heard the news of Jiang Feng's return. The look on her face was even more astonishing than that of the middle-aged man.
"He's not dead, how could he not be dead. It's been seventeen years, and he can come back for nothing. It must not be true, it must not be. The phoenix-robed woman said in disbelief.
After being surprised, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty left the palace and went to the place where Jiang Dingtian lived. Many important people in the palace also heard about the return of Jiang Feng, who had disappeared for seventeen years, at this moment. It's just that not many people really believe it. And the news that someone blatantly flew out of the palace soon spread throughout the palace.
