The fairy is fierce

Chapter 17: The Lost Realm

"grumble!"

Amidst the frightened chirping of birds, the two figures hugging each other fell into the mist between the cracks in the earth, and kept falling, as if they were going directly to the Nine Netherworld of Underworld. Ba Shu 69 new

There was so much mist all around that it was hard to tell whether it was rising or falling.

Even Shangguan Lingye's mind showed nervousness in the void where he couldn't see anything and couldn't escape. He pulled Zuo Lingquan behind him, with his body in front, facing the incalculable danger ahead.

Zuo Lingquan used his left hand to hold Shangguan Lingye in his arms, with the long sword in his hand, and he also cautiously sensed his surroundings.

Fortunately, nothing indescribable appeared in the fog; after falling for an unknown amount of time, the two finally fell through the fog, and what appeared in front of them was an even more bizarre scene.

Mountains and rivers are displaced, and the world is turned upside down.

The two fell into a crack in the earth, but when they came out they were in the clouds. Looking around, the earth and mountains and rivers turned into pieces, suspended in the sky and fell into the clouds.

Among the clouds, yellow sand and gravel also fell with the heavy rain, smashing into the land in front of them, and the sky collapsed. I am afraid this is the scene.

The shattered earth was illuminated by thousands of thunders, and the towering ancient trees on the earth could be seen. Some nameless beasts were escaping under the shaking of the earth. You could even faintly see the ancient palaces covered with vines, which collapsed as the rocks collapsed. , occasionally leaking out of the eaves.

But looking at it, there are no traces of human activity on the earth, not even large animals. It looks like a small world that has long been dead to humans and is completely collapsing.

Zuo Lingquan hugged Shangguan Lingye and fell with the heavy rain, trying to control the current to stabilize his body; but the land of Jiuzhou tore this small world apart, and in the aftermath, even the space began to be unpredictable, let alone relying on the Five Elements Bagua The spell performed.

It felt like entering a demon-sealing sword formation that was larger than the sky. It was difficult to control the magic. Even if I took action, it would become a wild horse, and it was impossible to judge where it was going.

Shangguan Lingye originally wanted to ride the wind, but after using his magical power, the two of them began to spin in the air, rising and falling almost throwing Zuo Lingquan out. In the end, he gave up controlling the world, and the two of them drifted with the current, falling freely. A river on the ground.

thump

The water splashed in the raging river.

Zuo Lingquan was worried that the bottom of the water was not safe. After falling into the water, he grabbed the suffocating dumpling and jumped up to the shore, landing on the grass where he could feel the aftershocks.

Shangguan Lingye stood next to him, his whole body soaked by the rain. He originally wanted to disperse the water vapor with a snap of his fingers, but indiscriminately using spiritual energy might cause a chain reaction in this unstable world, so he finally chose to take out a flower umbrella. , held it on top of his head, and said:

"This place is bigger than expected. It will probably take half a month to fully integrate with Central Continent."

Zuo Lingquan looked around. The sky was obscured by thunderclouds. He could only rely on electric light to identify a few feet in radius. From time to time, he could hear the roar of mountain landslides. He wiped the rain off his face, stood under the flower umbrella, and asked:

"How to get out now?"

"The world has not yet completely merged, and I can't figure out the direction. It's best not to fly around. Wait until it stabilizes before leaving. Find a safe place to stay first."

"Jiji!"

The dumplings soaked in water stood on Zuo Lingquan's shoulders, pointing in one direction with their wings, as if saying:

"Go south. Birds are the king of the mountains in the south. If the sky falls, Birds will hold up."

Although Zuo Lingquan didn't understand the meaning, he could feel the sense of security brought by confidence from Tuanzi, so he didn't say much, took the umbrella, put his arm around Shangguan Lingye's shoulders and walked south.

The movement of hugging the shoulders is natural, and combined with the scene of destruction, it really feels like a mandarin duck in the apocalypse.

Shangguan Lingye paid attention to his surroundings and noticed this small movement. He glanced at Zuo Lingquan's expression quietly and saw that Zuo Lingquan was also observing the surroundings, as if he was doing it subconsciously, so he didn't say anything and just pretended that he didn't notice it. .

Tuanzi's perception of the changes in the world was much more sensitive and intuitive than the two of them. He used his wings to guide Zuo Lingquan and walked along the nameless river for several hours before finally turning to the foot of a relatively intact mountain peak.

The peak is very high. Under the thunderstorm, the top of the mountain has penetrated the clouds, and some buildings can be seen faintly, but they are all very old and dilapidated.

The bluestone road up the mountain is still there, and although you can feel the vibrations of the heaven and earth, being on the mountain, the feeling is minimal, as if the mountain peak is the anchor of this small world, stabilizing everything around it.

"This mountain should be Zhongyue, the Optimus Prime of this world. It will not collapse under normal circumstances. It is estimated that it will emerge from the sea of ​​sand and become a new fairy mountain in the future."

Shangguan Lingye walked along the stone path in the mountain, looked at the overall Feng Shui atmosphere of the mountain, and said:

"I don't know if the mountain roots are damaged. If the mountain roots are intact and successfully integrated into the ground of Yuyao Continent, they may become geomantic treasures like Barren Mountain and Fulong Mountain in the future. It's a pity that it fell to the boundary of Zhongzhou..."

Zuo Lingquan didn't know much about Feng Shui, so he focused more on the remaining ancient buildings on the mountain.

This place has been isolated from the world for unknown years. The architectural style is very different from that of contemporary times. It can only be roughly seen that it is a practicing sect.

The name of the sect cannot be verified, but some murals and stone carvings can be seen on the stone walls beside the road up the mountain.

Zuo Lingquan used his sword to sweep away the vines on the mural. After careful inspection, he could roughly tell the meaning of the mural:

The heaven and earth were originally in chaos and emptiness. Yin and Yang were born by chance, and then gradually the five elements of heaven and earth and even all the spirits in the world were born.

When the heaven and earth first formed, the five heavenly officials, such as the green dragon and the white tiger, were born due to luck. Later, the earth collapsed and divided into nine continents, and each continent gave birth to the five heavenly official beasts. This mountain is on the mural. In the center of Yuyao Island, there is a big-antlered deer standing on it.

When Zuo Lingquan saw this, he was a little confused and said:

"Shouldn't the Lord of Middle-earth be a Qilin? How could it be a deer?"

Tuanzi was also very interested in the mural. Before Shangguan Lingye could speak, he responded by posing like a round phoenix spreading its wings, which probably meant "Aren't birds also phoenixes?"

Shangguan Lingye’s meaning is similar to that of Tuanzi, but the example he gave is from the previous Lord of the South:

"The five beasts of Xiaotianguan are all descendants of the five gods. The Pill Stealer used to be a peacock who stole the elixir. After becoming the Lord of the South, he controlled the power of the Phoenix, but he still looks like a green-headed peacock."

"oh……"

Zuo Lingquan nodded slightly and looked at Tuanzi again:

"If Tuanzi turns into a big phoenix and his appearance remains unchanged, wouldn't it be..."

"It turned into a big colorful dumpling."

"grumble?"

Tuanzi shook his head quickly, indicating that he would not grow such arrogant hair. He had always been a white dumpling and would only grow up. ♦♦  ♦♦

These trivial chats were just digressions, Zuo Lingquan continued to look at the murals.

After the big-horned deer settled on this mountain peak, a group of mortals came to worship sincerely. They were enlightened by the big-horned deer and established this sect.

The murals at the back depict the major events that the sect has experienced. Most of them are about slaying demons and purging the world. There are even traces of the soul-gathering flags. At that time, there were "divine messengers" on them. Four words.

The sect has experienced ups and downs for countless years. Then one day, a crack appeared in the sky of Jiuzhou, and an indescribable demon fell into the world. In an instant, the water in Jiuzhou boiled and there were thousands of corpses everywhere.

This sect united with the people on the land of Jiuzhou to drive away these alien visitors at the cost of one hundred and one hundred, but soon a new enemy came, tearing open space and descending on Jiuzhou.

It is unknown how long this bloody and dark history lasted. Almost all the murals showed reincarnations in this environment of foreign invasion again and again, until a Taoist priest appeared in Huajunzhou, holding a sword and cutting off the sky and the earth.

The time-honored murals ended here, and the two of them walked to the mountain gate.

The majestic mountain gate that originally housed a Kirin statue in the mural has long since collapsed, leaving only a base covered with moss and dead vines.

While Zuo Lingquan was still pondering the meaning of the mural, he saw a painting carved on the base of the statue. The painting style was different from the murals on the mountain path. It should be closer to the current era. There were only a few sects on it. My children, standing under the statue of the big-horned deer, looking at the land where the grass grows and the orioles fly.

On this land, there are no longer those demons who brought trouble to the Nine Continents, but there are also no peak immortals who can control the Nine Continents.

The tombs on the earth seem to indicate that the immortal guardians of the Nine Continents all died in these peaceful years after the world was cut off. The glorious sects that lasted for countless years have also died. Gradually withered away, leaving only two or three children.

But there is no sadness or regret in the portraits. The red sun setting on the horizon has the meaning of writing the end for this ancient sect, but it also seems to be telling future generations who see these murals:

Although we are all dead, we have left behind a world that continues to live on. Knowing that when you see the sky from now on, the only thing that sets will always be the sun, and not another demon wreaking havoc on the world, so you can die without worries and in a worthy way.

Zuo Lingquan stood in front of the base of the collapsed statue. After a long silence, he sighed:

"If what is said on the mural is true, then the current land of Jiuzhou can indeed be regarded as a fairyland on earth where everything is safe."

Shangguan Lingye felt more and said softly:

"There are many seniors in history who sacrificed their lives for the sake of the common people. Not to mention the distant past, countless seniors were killed in the battle of stealing pills alone. Many of them don't even know their names. Of course, what these seniors want is not Let us remember the name, but hope that we understand where the current Nine Sects come from, and like Master, use our lives to maintain this hard-won stability. "

Having said this, Shangguan Lingye shook his head and sighed again, and walked into the interior of the long-dead ancient sect:

"It's a pity that we only know this truth. Without Master's experience, it will be difficult to maintain Master's great perseverance that has lasted for thousands of years. Just like you, if you choose one between me and the common people, , which one will you choose?” ?

Zuo Lingquan was lamenting the experience of this ancient sect when he suddenly heard this proposition. He hesitated obviously and wanted to answer, but found that no matter how he answered, he could only say:

"Only children make choices, and I want to protect them all."

"Hmph~"

Shangguan Lingye shook his head:

"You and I can't make a choice, and we can't be cruel. But if she is the master, she will stand on the side of the people, die with you afterwards, and even send you away with her own hands if necessary. I also want to be a master Such a person, but unfortunately, the closer I get to you, the further I find that I am far away from my previous ambitions. It is indeed no joke that Wenwen Township is a Tomb of Heroes. "

"..."

Zuo Lingquan knew that this topic was very serious, and Shangguan Lingye also opened up his heart, revealed his true feelings, and made it clear that he valued him more than all living things.

But the last sentence still sounds very weird. It seems that who is the gentle country and who is the hero is reversed.

Zuo Lingquan thought for a while, put his hands around Shangguan Lingye's waist, pulled her into his arms, looked back at the cracked earth on the horizon, and said:

"These are things that a man should consider. When the time comes, I will know how to choose. You are a daughter's house, and you will be my gentle home. If one day, I need you to be in a dilemma between me and the common people. If I make a choice, it means that my sword practice has been in vain and I don’t deserve to live until then.”

This sentence was very domineering. Although the gap between realms was a bit large, Shangguan Lingye heard it a little funny, but she still cooperated and acted like a little girl. She hugged her chest, tilted her head slightly and leaned on Zuo Lingquan's shoulder, whispering softly road:

"As long as you have this ambition. If it were me, I guess I would choose you. Life and death of the people have nothing to do with me. This idea is already showing signs of being possessed. I want to rein in the precipice, but I can't."? ?

Zuo Lingquan was originally very moved, but the last sentence made him feel something was wrong. He held a flower umbrella, covering Shangguan Lingye's head, and looked at her profile:

"How can this be considered possessed? This is human nature. How do you plan to rein in the situation? You can't have any relationship with me."

"Even if we break up with each other, we will still miss each other in our hearts. If we want to completely cut off the relationship but still have ties to each other, we have to kill our husbands to prove the truth."

"grumble?!"

Zuo Lingquan's expression was stunned.

Shangguan Lingye laughed "chi~", his smile was bright and bright:

"This is the cruelest way to completely cut off ties. Anyone who can do it will become a devil if he can't become an immortal. I'm not kidding. Are you afraid?"

Zuo Lingquan was definitely not afraid, but he just felt that Shangguan Lingye's joke was not easy to take. He thought about it, spread his hands and said:

"You have such a high level of cultivation. I will definitely not be able to stop you from killing your husband to attain enlightenment. But at least there is a marriage, so I should be able to choose a decent way to die, right?"

Shangguan Lingye thought for a moment and nodded slightly: "Of course this request is acceptable. How do you want to die?"

Zuo Lingquan looked around and made sure that there were no outsiders here. He pretended to die generously and leaned into Shangguan Lingye's ear:

"How about...exhaust yourself..."

The small words were obscured by the heavy rain and could not be heard clearly.

Shangguan Lingye gradually frowned, moved his cheek slightly, and stared at Zuo Lingquan strangely:

"You can imagine such a painful and embarrassing way to die?"

"I think it's okay." Zuo Lingquan said half-jokingly: "Since I can't resist, I can only enjoy it before I die. If your heart is determined, go ahead and do it. I will never beg for mercy and I promise to die with dignity."

"..."

Shangguan Lingye was speechless. He wanted to scold Zuo Lingquan for being shameless, but her acting style prevented her from acting like a shy little woman. In the end, she chose to mock:

"This palace is just a half-step away from me. We may have to stay here for half a month. Are you sure that with your meager skills, you dare to fight with me?"

Fighting?

Zuo Lingquan thought this word was quite interesting. He and Qingwan had practiced for two years and had become proficient in various techniques. He responded proudly:

"Why don't you dare?"

He was still eager to give it a try.

But no matter how strong and assertive Shangguan Lingye is, facing this kind of free-for-nothing fight, it is impossible for her to get carried away as soon as her head heats up. She blinked her beautiful eyes and turned her gaze to the outside of the mountain:

"The sky is falling. It's not appropriate to fight today. Let's try another day. When we get out..."

Zuo Lingquan's fighting spirit was aroused. How could he allow his opponent to escape in the face of the battle? He said: "It's better to choose a day than to hit the sun. Let's do it today. I'm a young man who is shallow. It's respectful to strike first. Please don't blame me."

As he spoke, he raised his hand and used the dragon-drawing hand. The skirt of his clothes suddenly deformed, almost ejecting the ball that was squatting on the skirt watching the show.

Shangguan Lingye was caught off guard, and his body trembled. He turned around and wanted to scold Zuo Lingquan, but he didn't expect that Zuo Lingquan had no martial ethics at all and blocked her words with a set of combos.

"Woo~"

Shangguan Lingye leaned back to dodge, but couldn't get away until she bent back and half-lyed on Zuo Lingquan's arm. She wanted to beat Zuo Lingquan, but when she raised her hand, it was still the adult who ignored the villain. , it’s okay to stay here anyway.

If we really wanted to fight here, Shangguan Lingye had read "The Jade Tree in the Spring Palace" for a long time, and had mastered some theories. He thought he could give Zuo Lingquan some color to see, but the surrounding world was shaking, and the sky collapsed during the fight. Running away with your butt is obviously unworthy of a fairy.

Therefore, after embracing each other for a long time, Shangguan Lingye still held the hand that wanted to untie his clothes, turned his head and said softly:

"Okay, let's get down to business. Lao Lu fought for his life with Lin Zifeng from Sword Emperor City, and penetrated the ground with one sword. His life and death are unknown at the moment. Do you still have the intention to be frivolous with women here?"

Zuo Lingquan hugged Shangguan Lingye. Once reminded, he withdrew his mind and looked at the vast world outside:

"When the sword came down just now, I saw a peach tree, which looks a bit like the ancestral tree in Peach Blossom Pond. I guess an expert took action. Maybe Lao Lu will be fine."

"It may be Lord Peach Blossom, but I'm not sure. Even if Lord Peach Blossom takes action, just a small peach tree can't stop the power of the fairy sword. At most, it only allows two people to breathe. I don't know if they will also fall. Come in."

Seeing this, Zuo Lingquan straightened Shangguan Lingye who was lying in his arms and looked around:

"The world is unstable and it is dangerous to leave here without authorization. How can we go out to explore?"

"grumble!"

Tuanzi felt that he was getting in the way between the two of them, so he stood up and said "jijiji..." a few times, which should be saying:

"Niaoniao goes to explore the way. You can continue without any delay."

Then he opened his beak and asked for a reward.

Shangguan Lingye thought this was a good idea, so he took out a small dried fish from his sleeve and fed it to Tuanzi:

"Tuanzi, be good."

"Ji!"

Tuanzi held the small dried fish in his mouth and flew into the rain...
