Xia Ji never thought that he would become friends with a fish.
One year, starting in spring, he had become accustomed to loneliness and occasional visits.
He can easily obtain the fire that others have to work hard to obtain.
He can learn dozens of exercises every day that others need to work hard to learn.
He is a human being, an alien among the fire demons.
He is the Black Emperor, an alien among humans.
He is a time traveler and an alien in this world.
Everyone is destined to be unable to share all his secrets, and the only ones who can walk at the same stage as him are those ancestors who have lived for tens of thousands of years.
So, he is really lonely.
That can't be solved by just finding a pretty girl.
But the loneliness of the soul.
However, no matter how lonely he was, he never thought that he would become friends with a fish that could not speak.
The red-tailed fish became more and more familiar with him. As long as it heard his footsteps, the fish would swim to the lake in advance and wait for him in the shallow water.
And sometimes, she would naughtily hide in the deep water, and when he got close, she would suddenly jump out of the water, splashing into waves, and the water droplets would hit Xia Ji's face, which was ice cold.
Xia Ji also became accustomed to coming to the lakeside with a book in hand instead of sitting quietly in the study.
He recited various classics softly, while the fish listened curiously in the water.
One day, Xia Ji brought a recipe book and specifically turned to the areas of "Braised Fish", "Steamed Fish", and "Tofu Fish Soup", and showed it to the fish while facing the water.
The fish stared at it for a long time, and suddenly it seemed to understand. It was so scared that it lost its soul. It flicked its tail and dived into the bottom of the water. No matter how hard it was, it couldn't scream.
Xia Ji couldn't help but laugh.
There was also some joy on the island.
View peach blossoms in spring.
Look at the stars in summer.
The stars are like water, and Xia Ji is sitting by the lake, but the fish don't come out for any reason.
So he grabbed a spiritual grass picked from Abbot Island from the storage space and went to the lakeside. He shouted with a smile: "Okay, don't be angry. I'll treat you to a big meal."
The appearance of the spiritual grass immediately added a bit of freshness to the surrounding water, and this breath enveloped the lake around him.
In the sparkling moonlight, the red-tailed fish finally couldn't bear the greed, and rose up from the bottom of the water, spitting bubbles, jumped out of the water in the middle of summer, and actually took a bite of the magic grass, its mouth curled up. Enter a delicate leaf.
After eating, it swam around excitedly.
Xia Ji then raised the spiritual grass slightly, and then he saw the little red-tailed fish jumping around in the water like a puppy with its claws worshiping someone.
He looked at it with joy.
The psychic little fish suddenly woke up and felt that he was being played, so he swam away again "in anger".
Xia Ji lowered the spiritual grass slightly, and the little fish quietly dived into the water and swam back "on tiptoe".
Swimming close, the fish flicked its tail suddenly, and its small body broke out of the water. Xia Ji suddenly pulled up the spiritual grass again.
The fish bit the air with its open mouth, rose to the highest point in the air, and fell into a brief stillness, with a pair of fish eyes and Xia Da's small eyes.
Fish Eyes seemed to recognize the smile in Xia Ji's eyes, and suddenly let out a "haha" and sprayed out a water arrow, hitting Xia Ji's face.
Then the fish fell into the water again, pretending to be a ferocious water beast, quietly hiding under the water, and started a cold war with Xia Ji.
However, when Xia Ji casually threw the spiritual grass onto the water,
The Cold War ended instantly.
The fish seemed to have only seven seconds of memory. It quickly forgot about the scene it had just been played on, and happily floated up and began to eat the spiritual grass.
After eating, he obediently walked around to Xia Ji and performed a "weird" "belly dance".
Apparently, it has become somewhat intelligent and has begun to exhibit some movements that ordinary fish cannot do.
In autumn, it’s time to admire the full moon.
Xia Ji originally wanted to spend time with Xiao Su, but when he went to the Wolf Snake and Death Church for a little investigation, he found out that Xiao Su was busy outside. He estimated that there was a high probability that he was still looking for the twelve golden statues and then came back alone. .
As for Su Tian, she seemed to understand that she would not want to reproduce with her in the short term, so she did not rush her. She was just digesting the fire and working with Su Yueqing to go to Tribulation Land to practice and regain her strength.
Su Tian met all her requirements, and he gave her fire. To a certain extent, it had become a form of transaction.
As for Su Linyu, her cooking skills were getting better and better, and the dishes she cooked began to have some strange effects. Hu Xianer finally turned into a fat fox.
The four women who have a relationship with him in this world are all busy with their own affairs.
So, Xia Ji spent the full moon season alone again.
The moon is in the lake.
He once again threw a spiritual grass to Yu'er out of habit, and Yu'er stayed with him and looked at the full moon together.
The surface of the lake was like a mirror, reflecting his hair mixed with gray hair.
…
…
At this time, Xia Ji did not know that although he deliberately concealed the information about the creator of "The Scroll of Ten Thousand Dharmas", the secret was still revealed.
There is no airtight wall in the world, but somehow the news got through.
Maybe Wu Ji accidentally leaked it.
Perhaps the two building owners of Sun Moon Shanhe Building felt that such a great talent could not be concealed, so they helped him spread the word.
Or maybe it was Xia Ji's seventy-two disciples who were seen.
For a time, many high-level figures in the world of good and evil have understood that the person who destroyed underground forces such as Blood Rain Thousand and Eight Floors and Hidden Blade Twelve Phases last year and massacred the martial arts leaders and others was most likely the reclusive person. The Immortal in Mirror Lake.
But with the constraints from high-level forces, even if they knew it, they could no longer harm Xia Ji.
Over time…
When Xia Ji sat alone in the full moon with only one fish for company, his fame had already spread all over the world.
Anyone who holds "Tianxia Jinqi" or "Tianxia Image" can't help but call him teacher.
Just because these two volumes are so well written.
It is inclusive of all kinds of methods and explains things in a simple and profound way. No matter what kind of person you are, you can find a cultivation method that suits you in this book.
…
…
As late autumn passes, it snows again.
Because of the red-tailed fish, Xia Ji gave up the idea of making fish soup. This winter, he made his own mutton soup.
Light snow falls like salt particles.
A charcoal stove was burning in a small pavilion not far away.
Mutton soup is simmering in the pot above it.
The fragrance was overwhelming. Xia Ji took a deep breath and showed a satisfied look.
He held the book and read by the lake. When he got tired, he would look at the little red fish and then throw a piece of spiritual grass or spiritual flower to it.
suddenly,
If he felt something, he put down the book and walked towards the mysterious shield outside the village.
Because there is an uninvited guest outside the hood.
This was a guest that surprised Xia Ji.
The guest was slim and beautiful, with a teardrop mole on the corner of his left eye. He was free and ethereal, like a fairy on a boat parked outside the hood, waiting for the owner to open the door.
This is the original imperial concubine - Concubine Wan, or rather Lu Wan. Xia Yun and the third prince Xia Xian are her children.
Xia Ji opened the "door" and let her in.
But when I got closer and took a closer look, I found that this was not Lu Wan, but a woman who looked very similar to Lu Wan. She was more beautiful than Lu Wan, and her eyes were more compassionate than Lu Wan. Her aura was ethereal, with a strange hook. The taste of people.
"Hello, Mr. Feng, I am Lu Chan, the assistant to the head of the Lu family."
With a smile, Lu Chan glanced around the manor and asked curiously: "You have been living here alone? You don't even have a maid?"
Xia Ji said calmly: "What is Miss Lu Chan doing here?"
"Talk to you about something."
"What's up?"
"It's about the mysteries of heaven and earth, important matters about your life and death, sir." Lu Chan smiled charmingly, "Are you interested, sir?"
She sat in the pavilion, and Xia Ji sat opposite her and said, "It doesn't matter if you just tell me."
Lu Chan said: "Sir, do you know why you have been unable to break through to the eleventh realm?"
Xia Ji was stunned for a moment. He really didn't know because he was in the eleventh realm. But even though he thought so in his heart, his face still showed natural distress, and he shook his head.
Lu Chan said: "Sir, do you know the ancestors of your family?"
Xia Ji remained silent. He didn't have to answer this question at all.
Lu Chan said: "Let me tell you straight, Su Daji is the ancestor of your Su family, and she doesn't want her husband to break through the eleventh realm. Do you know why?"
Xia Ji shook his head in confusion.
Lu Chan said: "Because she is afraid of her husband's potential."
Xia Jiqi said: "I am a disciple of the Su family, why is the ancestor afraid of my potential?"
Lu Chan said slowly: "Sir, have you ever thought that the current calamity of fire is just the first calamity in the world, and there will be eleven more calamities to be lived in the future?"
Xia Ji showed just the right amount of astonishment, and at the same time he felt a deep sense of vigilance in his heart. Even if the person who could say such things was not the ancestor, he was inseparable from the ancestor.
This Lu Chan is no ordinary disciple.
Lu Chan gave a rough introduction to the catastrophe, and then said: "Each catastrophe will have a new power, which can be regarded as a new realm. The fire catastrophe is accompanied by the awakening of the bloodline, and the last catastrophe is accompanied by the union of the same blood.
Do you know what being of the same blood is? "
Xia Ji recalled what Su Tian said, "At that time, only people with the same blood could truly trust each other," but he still shook his head.
Lu Chan said: "Being of the same blood and joining the Tao means that only one person from a bloodline can reach the top. In other words, if you reach that point, Su Daji will die, and if Su Daji reaches that point, you will die.
And if you are unable to maximize the power of the Eleventh Realm, your lifespan will not last five hundred years, and you will naturally die in this small era, without worrying the head of your family. "
Xia Ji said: "If you think you can scare me by just saying a few words casually, then you really underestimate Feng."
Lu Chan smiled and said, "What if I say that I am the ancestor of the Lu family?"
As she spoke, she waved her hand, and four mysterious flying swords shot out from her sleeves. Each sword contained an aura that made Xia Ji even cautious.
Lu Chan moved her hands slightly, and the four swords suddenly turned into four hundred swords, followed by four thousand, forty thousand...
Forty thousand swords were densely packed into a mysterious array in mid-air, blocking out the sky and the sun, casting shadows full of murderous intent.
These shadows seem to contain the struggling of countless creatures, as well as the roaring waves of endless killing energy between heaven and earth.
The roaring waves came one after another, not only making the air of the manor on the lake vibrate, but also
It also made Xia Ji's energy and blood tremble slightly.
At this moment, he had already believed that this was most likely the ancestor of the Lu family.
But her explanation of "being of the same blood and joining the Tao" is completely different from Su Tian's.
As a disciple of the Su family, Xia Ji naturally did not need to bow when he saw the ancestor of the Lu family, so he bowed slightly and said, "I have met the ancestor."
Lu Chan waved her sleeve again, and all the swords in the sky turned into a trickle and returned to her sleeve.
Lu Chan didn't waste any time and said directly: "This generation of the Su family has two talents. The first is Shenwu King Xia Ji, who is now the Black Emperor. The second is you."
"Don't dare."
"There is nothing to be afraid of. I have read your two books, "The Power of the World" and "The Image of the World". They are very well written. With these two books, I can already say initially that you are qualified to work with us in the future. Parallel."
Lu Chan looked at the man in front of her seriously, "It just so happens that the Su and Zhou families have some conflicts between me and the Su and Zhou families. We don't want to be together with the ancestors of these two families after more than five thousand years, so I want to change it to you. What's wrong with you?" That’s a good thing, right?”
Xia Ji was silent when he saw him.
Lu Chan smiled and said: "I know you won't believe me, it doesn't matter, I don't ask you to believe me now, people will only believe their own eyes and what they have experienced, I just give you one more choice. "
"What choice?"
Lu Chan looked at him steadily: "Marriage."
Xia Ji's expression suddenly became strange. Isn't this the second ancestor who wants to have sex with him
Is this too weird
Su Tian knew her true identity, so she had the intention to reproduce. The ancestor of the Lu family should not have such intention.
Lu Chan saw his expression and immediately understood what he meant: "You dare to think that you can't do it now. Thousands of years later, if you are really capable, I will become a Taoist partner with you." Can.
For the current marriage, I have proposed a talented and beautiful genius from my Lu family. In a few years, she will appear in your sight. At that time, she will hide her identity from the Lu family and fall in love with you for a long time. , and then your marriage will be natural.
And once the marriage is completed, I will help you break through the eleventh realm in the future, I will help you arrange the next things, and I can even take you out of the Su family.
You are the person I value, don't let me down. The girl's name is Hua Miaoyu, and she will meet you in five years.
Don’t rush to reject me. It’s your talent that allows me to give you a choice and a different destiny. It’s a happy thing for people to have choices. Cherish the woman who appears in front of you five years later. . "
After Lu Chan finished speaking, she turned around and left without staying any longer.
Xia Ji was left looking at her back quietly, falling into silence.
One of Lu Chan and Su Tian must be lying, and the most important thing is that he cannot and cannot tell who is lying.
And the more important information is...
The ancestor of the Lu family did not panic when the Black Emperor was mentioned. It seemed that the fact that Xia Ji was the Black Emperor did not frighten her much. There were only two possibilities.
First, she has a way to deal with the Black Emperor, but even so, a Black Emperor full of revenge against the family is enough to make her nervous. After all, this is the first calamity and the beginning of a snowball.
Secondly, she knew that the Black Emperor was not something to be afraid of...
Because, as Xiao Su said, the Black Emperor, as a bad omen, is part of the Fire Tribulation. When the Fire Tribulation disappears, he will also leave with the Fire Tribulation.
What's so scary about such a black emperor
