Chapter 974
Legend has it that in ancient times, the heavens and the earth were in chaos. The two gases of turbidity turned into gods and demons, because the gods were pure and self-appreciative, adhering to the meaning of respecting the heavens and worshiping the earth, leading by example, turning all the spirits in the world into all things, and reproducing all things.
And the demons are extremely vicious, coveting the essence of all things, in order to strengthen their own strength, they devour weak creatures, causing the anger of people and gods.
The gods threw the living souls together to fight the demons, and the dead were injured and wounded, and the undead wandered everywhere and had no fixed residence. Therefore, the gods elected the Netherworld Ghost King, ruled the undead, and formed the Ghost Realm.
The battle between gods and demons took a long time. caused the collapse of heaven and earth, the loss of Hongmeng's qi, and gradually turned the world into three. They are the realm of immortals and demons, the realm of reincarnation and the realm of chaos.
Now the world where Ning Zhe is located is the realm of immortals and demons, and this world is still ruled by both gods and demons. Ning Zhe's original world was the realm of reincarnation, the most regular and stable of the three worlds.
The other chaotic world is a dead world, where there is no life, only endless chaotic energy.
Nowadays, although there are immortals and gods in the realm of immortals and demons, it is not common anymore. There is a forbidden place in the realm of immortals and demons, called the Valley of Gods and Demons, and there is a strange book hidden in the Valley of Gods and Demons, called Hongmeng Extreme Dao.
It is recorded in the Hongmeng Extreme Path that the last large-scale appearance of the gods and Buddhas of the heavens was 10,000 years ago, because they came to the world in pursuit of an evil god called the poison god.
Later, the poison god was sealed by the gods and imprisoned in the Valley of Gods and Demons, and could not be escaped forever. But the poison god was unwilling to be captured, and threw his magic weapon colorful spirit stone into the world.
Although this colorful spirit stone is the treasure of heaven and earth, it is also a forbidden thing. Because every thousand years, this treasure will emit a poison that is difficult for gods and demons to dissolve, and every time it emits poisonous gas, it will fall from the sky with colorful light.
This seven-colored light is exactly what Bingqing said about the seven-colored aura. Because thousands of years ago, the founder of the Antarctic Immortal Palace, Nangong Fairy, was once poisoned by the seven-colored Xuanguang, and when she was dying, she suddenly had an epiphany, not only dissolving the poison, but also realizing a set of techniques to resolve all poisons.
Therefore, Nangong Fairy believes that this colorful Xuanguang is not harmful and not beneficial, as long as people know how to use it, they can find the endless mysteries, so she privately called the colorful Xuanguang as the colorful spiritual light. Not only because this light is spiritual, but also because it represents her epiphany, so as to inspire future disciples and grandchildren not to be easily discouraged no matter what difficulties they encounter, and to keep their sanity.
This set of detoxification techniques is called Ice Spirit Gu, and this set of spells needs to be cultivated in an extremely cold place, so Nangong Fairy built the land of creation in the extreme south ice field.
In fact, this set of detoxification techniques can be cultivated by ordinary people, but they must go through the test of cold, because there is this threshold, so very few people cultivate. Moreover, immortal cultivators generally believe that the art of poison transformation is a chicken rib on the way to cultivating immortals, and there is no need to spend time cultivating this set of spells.
Originally, any disciple of the Antarctic Immortal Palace could cultivate the Ice Spirit Gu, but two thousand years ago, a disciple went to the world to kill himself because he relied on this technique, which caused the anger of the palace master of the year, and established a new rule, only the palace masters of the past dynasties could practice this technique, and they also needed to be people of high moral character. If the palace master has the heart of greed and harming others, then the elders of the sect are qualified to kill the palace master.
Since then, the palace masters of the Antarctic Immortal Palace have all been pure and good people.
At this time, Ning Zhe was listening carefully to Bingqing's ancient legends and stories about the Antarctic Immortal Palace, and after listening to it for a long time, he showed a puzzled look, and asked, "Having said so much, I still don't understand what that colorful aura has to do with me?"
Bingqing glanced at him and said, "What are you anxious about, I was about to say this." My ancestor left a last word, saying that he must find the next person who survives the poison of the Colorful Aura, and if the descendants of the Antarctic Immortal Palace meet such a person, they will definitely encounter a great opportunity, and they must not miss it. ”
Speaking of this, Bingqing set his gaze on Shi Xian's body. Shi Xian dodged Bingqing's gaze and said hesitantly: "Don't look at me, there are some things I won't tell you." But rest assured, I have no ill will towards you. All I care about now is this kid. ”
Seeing Shi Xian pointing at him, Ning Zhe said speechlessly: "When I have a daughter-in-law in the future, will you always follow me like this?"
Shi Xian grinned and said, "The person I am with is you, not your daughter-in-law, what are you afraid of?"
Ning Zhe was just about to speak, but he was choked by Shi Xian's words. Ning Zhe didn't bother to argue with Shi Xian, so he ignored him.
"Little girl, you have also found this opportunity, what are you going to do next?" Shi Xian saw that Ning Zhe ignored him, and took the initiative to talk to Bingqing.
Bingqing glanced at the nearby Wolf Head Mountain and said, "I will go to the capital and wait for the elders of the sect to arrive, because we have already said that we will meet there, but we have not said a specific time, it seems that we will have to stay in the capital for a while longer." ”
Shi Xian said: "The ice field is a long way from here, you don't have a penny this way, how did you survive?"
Yue'er stood beside Bingqing, Bingqing touched Yue'er's head, and said: "From Bingyuan to the Central Plains, Yue'er and I mainly walked the mountain road and lived by eating some mountain delicacies. Now that I think about going to the capital, I really don't know how to support myself, and I have no ability but nowhere to show it. ”
Shi Xian stretched out his hand and touched his nose, and said proudly: "You are lucky to have met this great immortal." I have many acquaintances in the capital, and this time I will accompany you, and all your food, drink and Lazar will be under my control, don't worry. ”
"Thank you so much. Bingqing changed his previous lukewarm attitude and became polite.
Ning Zhe looked at the sun in the sky and said lazily: "It's so hot now, let's wait for the evening to be cooler before we leave." ”
Bingqing nodded and said, "Okay, there is still half a day left, we will have a good rest, recharge our energy and prepare to set off." ”
"I've just gotten this skin, but I'm always feeling sleepy. I'll sleep a little more and call me when I set off. Ning Zhe lay lazily on a big rock, chirping, and soon fell asleep.
It's early summer, and the villagers who live in the mountains are plowing their fields under the sun.
Wu Axiu's family also has half an acre of land, he is plowing the field at this time, and his younger brother Wu Ergou is herding cattle in the mountains. Originally, these field jobs were all done by his younger brother, but Wu Axiu returned to his hometown this time, and Wu Ergou had the idea of being idle, saying that he was going to herd cattle, but in fact, he was hiding from his leisure.
Wu Axiu's body is thin, how can he endure the scorching sun?
He is now sweating profusely, dizzy and already showing signs of heat stroke.
Therefore, Wu Axiu couldn't help but sigh, wiped the sweat on his face, and recited a poem:
"There is a big kiln in heaven and earth, and the sun charcoal cooks in June.
All things are clay, why do people complain about the heat.
You look at the autumn of the hundred grains, and it is also knotted in the summer.
The water in the fields is boiling like soup, and the back is wet with sweat.
Farmer Fang Xiayun, sit down and dare to eat!"
——————————————
Qianzhang is ashamed to go away, and the piccolo and green cow chase the sun.
The sound of the lonely goose stays at dusk, and the willow smoke is drunk and catches the fishing boat.
——————————————
The sun is setting, and it is dusk. A group of four people walked on the mountain road, Yue'er ran in front like a little rabbit, sometimes turning around and making grimaces at the three of them, that look of tiger head and tiger brain, which really aroused the love of the three of them.
Even Shi Xian, he has a special love for Yue'er, but Yue'er dislikes him as a stone demon and doesn't let him get close to him, which also makes Shi Xian sad for a long time. Don't look at Shi Xian's tall and big-shouldered appearance, but he also has the heart of a child, and sometimes he can't help but reveal his innocence.
Bingqing is usually not good at talking, and walks quietly in the team. However, Ning Zhe always accosted her, and Bingqing, who was already a little introverted, seemed annoyed, and now he only listened to Ning Zhe talking alone, Bingqing simply treated him as air.
Even though it's evening, the weather is still very hot and muggy, and people can't get up.
"It's been surprisingly hot these days, and in previous years, even in the hot summer, there was no such hot weather, which is not a good sign. Shi Xian picked up the gourd and took a sip of water, and said to Ning Zhe and Bingqing.
Bingqing's clothes were almost soaked with sweat, she was very uncomfortable now, and what she wanted to do most now was to take a cold shower. She wiped her sweat from her head, frowned and said, "My master once said that there will be visions or strange things in the world in the half year before and after the arrival of the Colorful Spiritual Light. ”
Ning Zhe didn't have the heart to think about these things now, he was now full of curiosity and confusion about this world, but also full of sorrow. He was now very worried about his parents, and had heard that the town had been infected with the plague, but fortunately some people had left the town early. But his parents didn't call him, which made him uneasy and anxious.
By the time the four of them crossed Wolf's Head Mountain to the foot of the mountain, the sun had completely set. In front of her is a wide avenue, the road is lined with wild flowers and grasses, Yue'er likes these wild flowers and grasses very much, but she can't bear to pick them, her eyes have never left these flowers and plants when she walks on the road, and her little face is full of carefree smiles.
Before arriving in the capital, night had already fallen.
The four of them walked all the way, and they were also a little tired, so they stopped on the road to rest temporarily.
Yue'er looked at the starry night sky, suddenly stretched out her finger to the sky, and shouted: "Look, there is a red star next to the moon!"
All three looked up at the sky and saw a red star on one side of the moon.
Shi Xian stretched out his hand and pinched the beads hanging around his neck, and said in a deep voice: "Glowing firelight, away from chaos." This is the Luminous Ancient Star, does its appearance indicate that some calamity is coming?"
"Glowing Ancient Star, isn't that Mars. I've seen it many times in my house, and I haven't seen any disasters happen. Ning Zhe muttered to himself, he felt that Shi Xian was alarmist.
"Look, the light of the Glowing Star is getting brighter and brighter!" Bing Qing suddenly exclaimed.
Ning Zhe and Shi Xian were also observing the Glowing Star at the moment, and found that the red light of this star was getting brighter and brighter, which was extremely strange.
At this moment, the entire glowing star turned into a fiery red, and when the four of them stared at it, it suddenly dimmed, and the star slowly disappeared in the night sky.
"Master, was that star burned by the fire?" Yue'er asked innocently with a look on her little face, holding Bingqing's hand.
Before Bingqing could answer, Shi Xian preemptively said, "It's not that star that was burned by the fire, but that star that swallowed the fire." It seems that this sweltering weather will continue for a long time, and it is really torturous. ”
Yue'er looked at Shi Xian in confusion and asked, "Why did it swallow the fire?"
Ning Zhe and Bingqing also looked at Shi Xian with curiosity.
Shi Xian scratched his head, glanced at Ning Zhe and Bingqing, and said speechlessly: "Why are you two like children, what do you mix with me coaxing children?"
"Big Stone, I'm not a child, I'm six years old!" Yue'er was very displeased, rolled her eyes, snorted lightly, and turned her head to ignore Shi Xian.
In this way, the four of them stopped and made noise all the way, and entered the capital in the dead of night.
The capital was the royal city of the Zhou Kingdom, and the royal palace was built in the city. The gates were guarded by a guard, who searched the clothes of the four men and allowed them to enter the city.
The four of them entered the capital, Ning Zhe looked at the scenery in the city, the willows on both sides of the street hung down, and there was an arch bridge not far away, and the sound of flowing water came from under the bridge. The buildings in this city are also full of ancient charm, and Ning Zhe walks in it, and has a feeling of dreaming back to ancient times.
The four of them walked out of this street and came to the most prosperous night market in the capital.
The street is brightly lit and bustling.
Walking in the crowd, the four of them did not feel a trace of sleepiness now. Ning Zhe was not sleepy, because he had already slept enough during the day, and now that he came to this lively street market, he was even less sleepy.
Yue'er saw such a lively scene in the street market, a pair of eyes were not enough, and she ran around in the crowd, extremely happy.
Even Bingqing was infected by this atmosphere, and followed Yue'er with a smile.
Looking at the two girls in front of him, one big and one small, Shi Xian, a rough man, also showed a gentle smile, stood beside Ning Zhe, and said: "Life is rare and happy, I will invite you to eat and drink tonight, we will not get drunk and return!"
"Where did you get the money, do you have the money to entertain?" Ning Zhe asked curiously.
"Ahem, you don't care how I got the money, it's enough for food and wine anyway. Shi Xian was a little displeased, he hated Ning Zhe's suspicious appearance now.
Ning Zhe smiled and said, "Okay, someone invited a fool to refuse." Here you are familiar, you take us to the bar. ”
Hearing Ning Zhe say this, Shi Xian suddenly laughed, and shouted to Bingqing who was running in front: "Little girl, take the little girl and go with me, I will invite you to eat and drink!"
Shi Xian called Bingqing a little girl, and Guan Yue'er called a little girl. Bingqing heard Shi Xian's shout, so he took Yue'er back to the two.
In this way, under the leadership of Shi Xian, the four of them walked towards a restaurant called Drunken Immortal Residence.
The four of them had just entered the Drunken Immortal Residence, and the two brothers Wu Axiu and Wu Ergou happened to have just passed by in front of the restaurant. As soon as he walked through the restaurant, Wu Ergou stopped, looked back at the plaque on the restaurant, sniffed hard, and said intoxicatedly: "It's so strong that my saliva comes out." ”
Wu Axiu shook her head and said to her younger brother: "This kind of place is not suitable for us to come, my mother is home alone now, we have to rush back before dawn, so as not to worry about her old man." ”
"Hey, I see, I didn't say I wanted to go in. Wu Ergou reluctantly followed his brother and left here.
