Chapter 1151 - Cutting the grass to remove the roots
Phoenix?!
Hao Mengzhun gave this answer, which shocked everyone, and the surroundings were suddenly silent, and no one spoke. It wasn't until a long time later that the people who came back to their senses let out bursts of exclamations and questions.
"What did you see? Phoenix? This can't be!"
"Isn't the phoenix a fictitious artifact?"
"In this world, how can there really be a phoenix?"
"Did you misread it at the time?"
Even Li Sichen was wondering if Hao Mengzhun had read or remembered it wrongly, and frowned and asked, "Are you sure it's a phoenix?"
"I'm sure, it's definitely a phoenix!"
Hao Mengzhun's tone was quite affirmative, and his expression was extremely serious, almost without swearing.
"In fact, when we first saw the phoenix, we didn't believe it, it was a legendary artifact. Although there are relevant records in the book left by Peng Zu, we all suspect that the book was made up by the ancients to fool people. Especially the appearance of the phoenix at the beginning, there is no legendary artifact at all, like a pheasant that has lost its hair and dried up into a specimen shape......"
Hearing this, a strong sense of curiosity rose in everyone's hearts. However, they didn't speak, not because they didn't want to ask, but because they were afraid that as soon as they opened their mouths, they would affect Hao Mengzhun's memories, so they all held their breath and listened honestly.
Hao Mengzhun did not disappoint them, and quickly got to the point: "In our group of people, Wu Qiuyu's temperament is the most high-flying. After seeing the phoenix in the shape of a pheasant, she teased and reached out to grab the phoenix from the sarcophagus. As a result, at the moment when her hand just touched the phoenix, we were stunned on the spot, and a scene that we will never forget appeared.
The bare and withered phoenix actually bloomed with a cluster of flames, and the sarcophagus where it was located was instantly burned. If it weren't for Li Huaiyuan's quick reaction on the side, dragging Wu Qiuyu back quickly, I am afraid that Wu Qiuyu would also be like a sarcophagus, covered in flames and burned to ashes in an instant!
However, although the sarcophagus was burned to ashes, the phoenix, which was in a withered state, was not burned, but regained its vitality in the flames! Not only did it grow a dazzling feather in a few minutes, but its withered body also regained its blood color and elasticity. Even, the phoenix, which had no signs of life, began to flutter its wings and move its head......"
"Reborn from the fire!
Hearing this, many people felt that if Hao Mengzhun didn't lie and told the truth, then what he met was probably really a phoenix!
After all, only the phoenix has the magical ability to be reborn from the ashes!
Hao Mengzhun ignored everyone's exclamations and continued: "We were all stunned at the time, and we didn't wake up until we saw the phoenix fluttering its wings and flying away. We wanted to chase after us, but we were completely too late, so we could only watch the phoenix fly out of the tomb at the speed of a meteor and disappear in an instant. Missing the phoenix not only made us chagrin for a long time, but also made us believe in the contents of that book......"
Li Sichen frowned and asked, "So, my father is looking for Bai Yujing, looking for a way to bring people back from the dead, so as to resurrect my mother and me?"
"That's right. Hao Mengzhun nodded in response.
Li Sichen didn't know if Li Huaiyuan had found Bai Yujing, but he probably didn't find it.
Shaking his head, a new question popped up in his head: "You just said that that ancient tomb belongs to Peng Zu? Since Peng Zu has been to Bai Yujing, even if he has not become an immortal, he should have obtained the secret technique of immortality, right? Why did he still die?"
Hao Mengzhun replied: "There is no corpse in that ancient tomb. ”
"Clothed mound?" asked Li Sichen.
Hao Mengzhun thought for a moment and replied, "It's not so much a mound of clothes, but rather an ancient tomb specially built to store the book and the phoenix ......."
"Peng Zu, why did he do this?" Li Sichen wondered.
Hao Mengzhun couldn't figure it out: "Who knows? Perhaps, he just wants to tell future generations that Bai Yujing is not a fictional legend, but a real one." ”
"Where is Bai Yujing?" asked Li Sichen. He made up his mind, and after killing Xu Fu and regaining the Ziwei Emperor Star Destiny that should have belonged to him, he went to Bai Yujing to find traces of his father.
"According to our research and speculation over the years, Bai Yujing is likely to be in Luofu Mountain. Hao Mengzhun replied.
"Luofu Mountain, that Luofu Mountain in Guangdong Province?" Ma Yuanhao interjected: "I have been to that place, the scenery is good, but I have not seen any trace of Bai Yujing." ”
Hao Mengzhun smiled and said: "Bai Yujing's traces, how can it be so easy to be discovered? Let's just say that here in the medicine house, if no one tells you, can you imagine that there is such an existence hidden under the heavenly pool of Cuihua Mountain? Bai Yujing, as a legendary immortal city, is much more mysterious than the medicine house, and the difficulty of finding it is naturally higher. ”
"Yes, Immortal City Bai Yujing, how can it be easy to find?" Li Sichen sighed faintly, but did not lose confidence, but clenched his fists and secretly swore: "No matter how difficult it is, I will find it out!"
I finally got the news of my parents, how could I not look for it? But before I could do this, I still had to kill Xu Fu first!
So Li Sichen asked again: "Do you know where Xu Fu is hiding?"
"I don't know. Hao Mengzhun shook his head and said, "Xu Fu doesn't trust us at all, and the same goes for the people of the Immortal Dao, they don't say anything about Xu Fu to us at all." ”
This answer disappointed Li Sichen, and then he asked a few more questions, and Hao Mengzhun was very cooperative and gave answers one by one. In the end, Li Sichen let go of Hao Mengzhun and waved his hand: "I'm done asking, thank you for your cooperation, you can go." ”
"Let's go?" Hao Mengzhun showed a miserable smile: "I have become a zombie, where can I go? Anyway, I've lived for so many decades, and I've already lived enough!"
As he spoke, Hao Mengzhun stood up and walked towards the raging flames next to him step by step.
Li Sichen wanted to stop Hao Mengzhun, but the words came to his lips, but he swallowed them back.
Standing in the raging flames, Hao Mengzhun opened his arms, and instead of crying out in pain, he was laughing loudly.
"What is the joy of life, and what is the pain of death? The flames are blazing, burning my evil body, washing away my grievances, and making me a human again, hahaha......"
Hao Mengzhun's laughter was full of relief, and after a few minutes, his laughter died down, and the person was burned to ashes.
