The Prodigal Son of the Mystical Sect

Chu Tianxiao was stunned when he heard this, thinking that most mountainous villages would have names such as "Zhangjia Village", "Majia Village" or "Taiping Village", but now this seemingly isolated and peaceful place, how could it happen? Why would you choose such a special name as "Empress Village"?

Judging from the behavior of the people in the village, Chu Tianxiao can conclude that they have absolutely no cultivation, so the slightly domineering name of 'Emperor Village' is worthy of scrutiny...

Is there any allusion?

The little boy was smart and seemed to see the doubts in Chu Tianxiao's heart. He grinned and pointed to a high mountain in the distance ahead: "Big brother, look, it's called 'Cuiyun Mountain' and there is an 'Emperor's Temple' on the mountain. , I heard that it was built by the gods from heaven a long time ago! There is also a stone statue of the Emperor’s Empress in the temple!”

"Immortal... stone statue?"

Chu Tianxiao's eyes narrowed slightly.

He has traveled so long that he has never heard of legends about "gods" in the vast land of China, but... there has never been any mention of the 'emperor's empress' in any legend...

"Who is the 'emperor' you are talking about?"

Confused, Chu Tianxiao asked directly. The little boy thought for a moment and said, "I heard from the adults that it happened thousands of years ago, but I don't know... I only heard that the Emperor's Empress had an affair with a The immortal uncle lived here in seclusion...but then the immortal uncle disappeared first. , and then the Emperor's Empress also disappeared. Legend has it that they thought life here was too hard, so they returned to heaven... However, when the Emperor's Empress lived here, she helped many people and saved many people, so for In memory of her, this place was renamed 'Emperor Village'."

Hearing this weird legend, Chu Tianxiao was even more surprised. He was sure that he had never heard of this legend, but why... a sense of familiarity inexplicably emerged in his mind...

Have I heard...where?

impossible……

"Uh!" Chu Tianxiao shook his head quickly. Since time traveling, he has occasionally had a feeling of 'memory confusion', as if he had known and experienced many things before... but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that it was just Delirium and dreams.

He attributed this symptom to the memory confusion caused by two lifetimes, but he didn't take it too seriously.

Moreover, compared to this, he was more eager to know where this 'Emperor Village' was located in Zhao? And how to get to Zhaodu from here?

Three thousand prodigal troops are still waiting for me to lead them, so how can we delay here any longer?

As soon as he thought about this, Chu Tianxiao secretly cursed himself for being confused and asked quickly: "Little brother, do you know how to get out of here?"

"Get out? Why do you want to go out? Master Liokong said that the outside world is fierce and evil. If you don't harm others, they will harm you! I, we don't want to harm others, but we don't want to be harmed by others, so we can only live in this village. ..." The little boy looked at Chu Tianxiao in confusion, "Brother, you finally came to Dinu Village from the outside world, why do you still want to go out?"

"... There are so many bonds when people live in this world. How can it be possible to truly escape from this world in Peach Blossom Spring?" Chu Tianxiao couldn't help but feel something when he heard this. After sighing, he quickly grasped the key point in the little boy's words. , "From what you said, little brother, that 'Master Liao Kong' should know how to get out of here?"

Although he didn't fully understand it, Chu Tianxiao vaguely felt a hint of restriction the moment he stepped into this place... He even had an intuition that if he didn't rely on the help of the locals, he wanted to get out of this place on his own. I'm afraid that I will always be like "a ghost fighting against the wall", and I can't make any progress!

Therefore, even though Chu Tianxiao was anxious, he knew not to be rash and asked quickly.

Hearing this, the little boy thought for a while, nodded and said, "Probably..."

"Then who is this 'Master Liao Kong'? Where is he now?"

"Master Lokong is the abbot of the 'Emperor's Temple' I just mentioned. He is a good man. He often carries some precious medicinal herbs down and provides free medical treatment to everyone. Everyone in the village respects him... Well, at this time, Master Liao Kong should be practicing in the temple. "

Hearing this, Chu Tianxiao quickly closed his eyes: "Abbot of the Emperor's Temple? Is he from Buddhism? Strange... As early as hundreds of years ago, the Buddhist sect had already cut off its incense inheritance in the vast land of China. After the war to destroy Buddhism in various countries, , there are only some Buddhist treasures circulating in the world, and there are no traces of Buddhist disciples...how could they appear here..."

The more I think about it, the more strange it becomes. Obviously, this little 'Empress Village' is definitely not that simple!

On normal days, Chu Tianxiao might have broken the casserole and asked the truth, but now, he knew it was not the time to care about these things, so he just said: "Then, little brother, can you take me to the Temple of the Emperor's Lady?"

Unexpectedly, the hospitable little boy flatly refused this time: "No."

Hearing this, Chu Tianxiao was stunned: "Why?"

"Because although Master Liao Kong is very kind to people, he also has a strange rule - no one is allowed to approach the Temple of the Emperor."

"...Why is this?" Chu Tianxiao felt that things were getting weirder and weirder.

"I don't know either... This is a rule that was established a long time ago. Although everyone is very curious, everyone respects Master Kong more, so no one has ever violated it."

"Well... what should I do?" Chu Tianxiao pondered, but the little boy kept enthusiastically inviting him to go home for dinner... But with the current situation, Chu Tianxiao couldn't be in that mood and said thank you. , said goodbye to him, and looked around with his spiritual consciousness.

Yes, he decided to take a walk first.

As soon as the figure flashed, Chu Tianxiao used his spiritual consciousness to explore around, and quickly ran to the edge of the village. Then, he moved his right hand forward slightly...

clang! ——

The invisible barrier became tangible at this moment, rippling like water waves. It seemed weak, but Chu Tianxiao knew that this was a very strong restriction!

"...No, judging from the results of the test just now, this screen is very likely to rebound! If I use the star to shake the world and attack forcefully, I'm afraid I will hurt myself first before the screen is broken!"

As he had expected, Chu Tianxiao searched around and finally found that the "edges" everywhere were either blocked by barriers or made up of confusing formations, so that people could only stay in place.

However, these two restrictions were so strong that Chu Tianxiao had only seen them in his life. With his cultivation at the lower level of Tongxuan, he could not break through them at all. According to his estimation, it would take at least a great practitioner to break through them. hope!

"...What the hell is this place?"

Chu Tianxiao was extremely puzzled, wondering if this was the legendary saying 'It's easy to get in but hard to get out'?

How could something like this happen to me?

Shaking his head, he turned around again, his figure flying around, trying to find a breakthrough...

But at this moment...

Bang!

Chu Tianxiao hit a "wall" again...

"Amitabha!"
