Chapter 19: The Nine Heavens Mystery Maiden
A thousand years ago, Xiao Yang went through the test of three calamities, and finally turned into a Taoist human form, and after retreating and cultivating for a few years, he immediately decided to go out to travel. He thinks that this time is the best time to travel to the flood wilderness, because the great powers have gone to Zixiao Palace to listen to the sermon, and the twelve ancestors of the Wu clan, he also specially asked the white tiger, according to the white tiger, after the first battle of the twelve ancestors of the witch and the lich, he has been staying in the Pangu Palace for retreat, I don't know what to do. In this way, Xiao Yang left Mount Meru boldly and went out to hunt for treasures.
In the past thousand years, he has been walking for a while, driving the clouds for a while, and stopping for a while, and the goal is the Tang Valley in the East China Sea. After all, it was the place where he first came to this world, and after more than 2,000 years of being away from there, he suddenly wanted to go and see, even if he knew that there were no more golden crows flying and chattering childish quarrels and complaints, now it must be silent, touching the scene, and inevitably causing himself to be sad. But this heart is uncontrollable eagerly thinking there, maybe Yuya is the home he recognizes in this world.
He was not in a hurry to rush towards Yuya, and still approached the East China Sea and Tanggu unhurriedly.
Along the way, he met the fox clan, the tiger clan, the horse clan, and the cow clan, none of them had cultivated any great powers, did not turn into human form, lived in the desolate land, and were still hunted by the Wu clan. Xiao Yang can't see it, if it is an ordinary creature without spiritual intelligence, it will be fine, but if a goblin with spiritual wisdom is chased and killed by the Wu clan, Xiao Yang will show up and save the demon clan, and he will not provoke the Wu clan, turn around and leave.
But the reckless man of the Wu clan is the most brave and ruthless person, how can he be willing to watch the prey in his hand being rescued by others? Unwilling, he naturally keeps chasing and killing Xiao Yang, Xiao Yang is not a soft persimmon, and he thinks to himself, I don't want to provoke you because I am afraid of provoking a big witch like Liu Jiufeng, the queen of punishment, do you really think I'm afraid? Hmph, let you see my methods.
As a result, a real fire of the sun passed, and the Wu clan suffered countless casualties. In this way, after a few times, they finally alarmed Liu Jiufeng and others, who personally attacked Xiao Yang a few times, but Xiao Yang escaped, and now Xiao Yang has arrived on the east coast.
He was blowing the sea breeze, hunting in a white robe, his long black hair was fluttering, his eyes were shining, his face was soft and gentle, his skin was fair, and he looked like a son of a family in ancient times, very handsome and elegant.
Xiao Yang took a deep breath of fresh air, stood on a reef by the sea, and couldn't help but smile: "The East China Sea is here, and Tanggu is not far away." ”
He was looking at the sea and sighed, and not far away, a woman and aunt who were washing clothes in fur were looking at him from time to time and discussing enthusiastically.
"Look at that person, he looks so white, whiter than us, and so good-looking, better than the witch clan adults in the tribe and the warriors in the tribe, but I don't know which tribe he is, not far from our tribe?"
The aunt next to her glanced at Xiao Yang and teased: "Xuannu, do you want to go with him? Look at the clothes he wears, which are worn by poor and lowly families in tribes like us, and only Chang'e, the woman of Houyi Dawu, who is said to be the most beautiful woman in all tribes, wears white silk clothes. That man must also be a well-off member of the family, and he can't say that he is the son of the leader of a certain tribe, so he can dress so well. How could he take a fancy to you?"
Xuannu bit her lip, secretly glanced at Xiao Yang again, and said unconvinced: "How can Chang'e have the face to say that she is the most beautiful woman in all tribes? She is in her thirties, right? She is only a few years younger than you, auntie, how beautiful can she be? Can she be more beautiful than Sister Chunhu and ** sister? Even now, I am not worse than her, why do all the people in the tribe say that Chang'e is beautiful? Are they all blind?"
The aunt hurriedly opened her mouth to stop her and whispered: "Don't say it, Xuannu, although what you said is the truth, you can't say it." Everyone in our tribe knows that Chang'e is no longer as beautiful as when she was young, and the corners of her eyes, mouth, and forehead are wrinkled, which one still praises her for her beauty when she sees her now, not in the face of Hou Yi Dawu, how can anyone really think that she is still very beautiful, she is about the same age as me, where is the beauty?"
"Hmph. Xuannu snorted lightly and said, "I said, Sister Chunhu is such a beautiful person, and she can't compare to an old woman like Chang'e, I'm just not convinced, so that's the case." ”
"Who's to say it isn't. Whoever made our tribe attach to the adults of the Wu Clan, Chang'e also married the Great Witch Hou Yi of the Wu Clan, naturally they all praised her one by one. ”
The aunt shook off the washed clothes and blew them off, then twisted the water droplets, cleaned up, and was about to get up and leave, but she didn't know what to think, she turned her head and glanced at Xiao Yang secretly, and said to the Xuannu: "Xuannu, if you take a fancy to him and follow him, hurry up and ask him if he wants you, although you are not as good as a pure fox, but you are still very beautiful, he will definitely agree to accept you." Otherwise, if you miss this opportunity, you will be ready to meet that Houyi Dawu's apprentice. He had taken a fancy to you early in the morning, and was asking the chief for you. I think that with his identity as the apprentice of Houyi Dawu, ** is not far from ten, the leader will agree, if you don't want to, you can quickly think of a way by yourself. ”
After speaking, the aunt carried the washed clothes and left, but the Xuannu was sad, depressed, and had no heart to wash the clothes, she was alone with her chin in a daze, looking at the sea from time to time, looking at Xiao Yang, and even the clothes were washed away by the waves.
Xiao Yang, who was standing on the reef, naturally heard the words of the Xuannu and the aunt in his ears, and when he heard Hou Yi Chang'e, Xiao Yang's eyes rose with anger, and then he heard that Chang'e was already half an old, and her face was no longer there, Xiao Yang's eyes rolled, and he guessed that the time had come for Hou Yi to go to West Kunlun to seek the elixir of life, so what could he do with this? Is it to poison Chang'e and make Hou Yi grief-stricken? Or to torture Hou Yi to death, so that the two lich clans can't tolerate him?
For a while, Xiao Yang had mixed thoughts in his heart, thinking about how to make Hou Yi's life worse than death, so as to avenge the blood feud of the year.
Suddenly, his eyes lit up, he had an idea, turned to look at the Xuannu in a daze, and saw that the clothes around the Xuannu were washed away by the waves, he smiled and shouted: "Hey, that woman, don't be in a daze, your clothes were washed away by the waves, wake up quickly, otherwise you go back, without clothes, the tribe will not give you food." ”
The Xuannu who was in a daze woke up all of a sudden, and saw that the clothes had been washed far away, she couldn't care much for a while, and went to the sea barefoot to fish, which was just a few pieces, and a few pieces had been washed far away by the sea.
Xuannu couldn't, so she had to go back to the shore, threw the clothes she had fished up onto the shore, looked at the clothes that had drifted away, and couldn't help but sob, and said to herself: "What can I do about this? ”
Seeing this, Xiao Yang chuckled, white clouds were born under his feet, and under the stunned eyes of the Xuannu, he turned around the sea, picked up the clothes that drifted away, and then returned to the Xuannu, handed them to her, and said with a smile: "Here, in the future, you will be in a daze and not on the beach, what if you are eaten by a monster on the sea?" Besides, you look so delicate and lovely, what if the Dragon Prince snatches it?"
His voice was so gentle, his smile was so good-looking, and he was like a god, Xuannu couldn't listen to what Xiao Yang said at all, she took the clothes stupidly, stared at Xiao Yang, her face was flushed and she didn't hang her head, and finally Xiao Yang finished speaking, she didn't say thank you or anything, her first sentence was: "I'll go with you." ”
After listening, Xiao Yang stumbled, almost couldn't control the clouds, and fell into the sea. He stabilized his figure, touched his face speechlessly, and said in his heart, I want to break into the enemy, but not to seduce the girl, hey, besides, are the women now so open and fierce? I'll go with you at every turn.
Seeing him in such a situation, Xuannu couldn't help but purse her lips and said angrily: "Why, you don't look down on me? Or are you cultivators so disdainful of marrying a mortal?"
Xiao Yang was stunned for a moment, his face was stunned, and he recovered in an instant, and said with a smile: "Yes, I am a Taoist cultivator, and it's not that I look down on you mortals, it's just that you mortals are too weak and have a short life." However, we cultivators can fly into the heavens and the earth, move mountains and seas, and live a long life, so how can we live together with mortals like you?"
Xuannu argued in disbelief: "Isn't the Houyi Great Witch in the tribe living with Chang'e, and now he is also happy with Mei?"
Xiao Yang shook his head and smiled: "Hou Yi will be sad sooner or later, after all, Chang'e has a limited lifespan, and when Chang'e goes, what can Hou Yi do? It's just sad, it's not conducive to cultivation." ”
Hearing this, Xuannu used her brains to think of other ways for a while, and asked Xiao Yang to accept her, anyway, she didn't want to go back to the clan and be with Fengmeng, Fengmeng looked good, but in fact, she was very jealous, and people were paranoid and very suspicious, she didn't want to live with a suspicious person every day.
In the end, her beautiful eyes lit up, and her eyes said with a hint of expectation: "Is it feasible for me to cultivate with you?
Hearing this, Xiao Yang couldn't help squinting his eyes, looked at Xuannu carefully, and found that her qualifications were really good, exquisite, and she was a good seedling for cultivating immortals, so she couldn't say that she would be a good assistant in the future. So, after pondering for a while, he nodded and sighed: "I will accept you, but I don't want you to be a Taoist couple for the time being, if you succeed in cultivation in the future, it is okay for you and me to become a Taoist couple." But if you don't have that opportunity and go early, then wouldn't it seem that I am ruthless and unrighteous when I find a Taoist companion again?"
"Well, it doesn't matter if you're a Taoist or not. Xuannu smiled: "As long as I worship under the Taoist door, the patriarch will not embarrass me, let me and Fengmeng be reconciled." ”
Kouhu, although Xuannu originally had a good impression of Xiao Yang, she was not obsessed with Xiao Yang, it was not that he did not marry, but that Xiao Yang could solve her troubles, which was why she was so open and bold.
For a while, Xiao Yang was depressed again, thinking for the first time that he was fascinated by a beautiful woman, but he didn't expect that he was self-inflicted.
Xuannu didn't care what he thought, she wrung out her clothes directly, and then called Xiao Yang back to her tribe. Xiao Yang was depressed and depressed, but the first step to penetrate the enemy was completed, and he was still in a good mood if it went so smoothly.
On the way, the Xuannu asked Xiao Yang, "Daoist, what is your Dao number, and what will my Dao number be in the future?"
"Master Qingyang. Xiao Yang thought for a while before he said, "You can take your Dao number yourself, I won't interfere." ”
"That's good. She stroked her hair happily and said with a smile: "My real name is Xuannu, and I heard that there are thirty-three heavens in the sky, among which there are nine blue heavens, and I must travel all over the nine heavens in the future, I will call it the Nine Heavens Xuannu." ”
Xiao Yang is another stumbling girl, sister, this is really shocking him, he can't help but be shocked, the name of the Nine Heavens Xuannu is too big in later generations, and the status of Taoism is comparable to the Buddhist Guanyin, but Guanyin practices the universal way, and the Xuannu practices the way of punishing evil and killing, and is even called the female god of war.
He couldn't help but look carefully at the Xuannu at this time, the Xuannu was still delicate and cute, Xiao Yang couldn't help muttering in his heart, this is the female god of war in the future, is it wrong for herself, she is thinking nonsense, otherwise, why is there no sonorous and resolute at all, just an ordinary delicate woman.
ps: Chang'e Houyi is destined to be more tragic than the original tragedy.
