Seeing Master's expression, Qiao Xuan's heart skipped a beat. He felt that something was wrong. Could it be that the problem was difficult
He quickly asked: "What's going on?"
Taichu was silent for a moment, his expression returned to calm, and he said lightly: "It's nothing, you don't need to worry about things here, I have other arrangements."
Is it just that
Although the master's attitude is downplaying, Qiao Xuan always feels that it is not so simple, and he wants to ask again, when a beautiful fairy suddenly flies in front of him, and the fairy bows and smiles at Taichu Yan Yan: "Dongan Shengzun learned that the respected god, you come here In the world, I specially invite you to enter the mansion for a talk."
Taichu nodded and said: "Okay."
As he spoke, he waved his hand and led Qiao Xuan and Shuchen up into the clouds.
Qiao Xuan didn't find a chance to ask any more along the way. He was absent-minded and couldn't help but think a lot. Thinking of the ruins and ruins he saw, something must have happened. Could it be related to this...
Soon they came to Donggan Shengzun's cave.
Standing under the majestic palace, Qiao Xuan thought of the ruins he saw in Nanyue Kingdom, that dark underground place buried secrets that no one knew.
At this time, Donggan Shengzun's cave was still under the sun, surrounded by countless immortals, and it was prosperous.
He followed Taichu into the main hall, and an old man with white beard and hair greeted him with a smile. The old man looked at Qiao Xuan with a kind look and said with a smile, "This is your new disciple?"
Tai Chu nodded: "Exactly."
Donggan Shengzun stroked his beard and smiled, and said: "You never accepted disciples before, which is really surprising."
Taichu glanced sideways at the young man, and slightly parted his thin lips: "It's just fate."
With all the attention at the moment, Qiao Xuan stood there a little nervous, not daring to make a sound, just acting cute.
Donggan Shengzun stopped asking questions, and said to Taichu with a smile: "I happen to have something to discuss with you."
Taichu said: "Okay."
He turned to Qiao Xuan and said, "You can walk around here, but don't run too far. I'll come and pick you up later."
Qiao Xuan nodded obediently.
Taichu and Donggan Shengzun left, and they came to a wide secret room with an astrolabe hanging in front of the secret room.
Donggan Shengzun showed a sad look, and said to Taichu: "Even if you don't come, I would have looked for you. Recently, I watched the sky at night and found something wrong..."
Tai Chu was silent for a moment, and said: "When I came here, I passed by a small town, and all the women in the town gave birth to stillborn babies. It has been a while."
Donggan Shengzun's expression turned serious when he heard the words, and he became more dignified, and said slowly: "You think it has something to do with that..."
Tai Chu nodded and said: "But I'm not sure yet, I decided to write a letter to Fu Yi, telling him to be careful about the movements in the underworld, I hope I'm worrying too much..."
Donggan Shengzun paused and sighed: "If it is really..."
Taichu shook his head: "The prosperity must decline, the reincarnation of heaven and earth... If this is the case, it cannot be reversed by our power."
... ... ...
Qiao Xuan and Shu Chen walked in the hall.
There are people coming and going in the familiar hall, including gods and mortals. This place is different from the heavens, and mortals can also come to pilgrimage, which makes it even more lively.
Everyone looked at Qiao Xuan curiously.
The ancient gods of the heavenly world never accepted disciples. It was rumored some time ago that the ancient gods of the ancient world had accepted a disciple. He was a little guy from the Feng clan. Even the mortal world was shocked. So it was this boy
What a stroke of luck.
I don't know what's extraordinary about it, so that the ancient gods of the beginning can accept disciples.
Qiao Xuan didn't care about the eyes of the crowd, but walked in the crowd in a daze. Because he didn't pay attention, he accidentally bumped into a young man, so he quickly apologized. The other party said politely, it's okay, it's okay...
Qiao Xuan pursed his lips. Unlike the illusion, the people here are real.
The scene in front of him perfectly overlaps with what he will see in the future—the lifeless ruins...
All of this will eventually disappear.
Shu Chen felt that something was wrong with Qiao Xuan, and asked strangely, "Where are you going?"
Qiao Xuan turned a deaf ear, his attention was in front of his eyes, he couldn't wait to see more, wanted to confirm some things...
Shu Chen reached out to grab Qiao Xuan, but there were too many people, Qiao Xuan ran away quickly, and they were scattered.
Qiao Xuan walked forward along the path in his memory. This place was exactly the same as the ruins. He passed through the hall and came to a wide and deep corridor with exquisite murals on both sides.
There are three realms and ten thousand races in the painting...
In the corridor, a beautiful girl wearing a taupe-coloured dress and buns walked by. Seeing Qiao Xuan approaching, she bowed respectfully and said, "Your Highness."
The girl looked at Qiao Xuan curiously with her lively eyes.
Qiao Xuan nodded and continued to move forward.
Finally came to the exit of the corridor.
He took a deep breath, stepped out of the door, and outside was a sea of beautiful flowers.
The sea of flowers in Yushu and the blue sky complement each other beautifully...
It was here that he saw his phantom, and that phantom guided him forward...
Qiao Xuan ran forward without hesitation. He remembered that there was a lake at the end of the sea of flowers, so he quickened his pace and ran forward.
Probably where outsiders were not allowed to come to the place he was walking, a few court ladies chased after him and said anxiously: "Your Highness, Your Highness, where are you going?"
"You can't run around here."
"Come back quickly, you will be worried if Zunshen can't find you later!"
Qiao Xuan ran very fast, and the court ladies couldn't catch up with him. Soon, he saw the lake in front of him. The transparent lake water was rippling with shallow ripples. He squatted by the lake, looking at his own figure reflected in it.
After a long time, he showed a wry smile.
I see.
In fact, he has been thinking about this since he went to the holy mountain and was accepted as a disciple in the early days. He began to realize that maybe what he saw in the illusion was not someone else, but himself.
That is both the past and the future.
There is no previous life, there has always been only him.
But that was always his guess, until he came here, and he was finally 100% sure of it, because he created the past again.
But it was precisely because he saw that phantom that he became curious about the past, and finally came here through the underworld. Whether the past created the future, or the future created the past, Qiao Xuan couldn't tell.
He just wanted to know, how should he go back
If he can't go back, will he disappear with all this with time
When will disaster come
today? tomorrow? a year? a hundred years? a thousand years
What is the purpose of this reincarnation
Is it just that you let yourself watch everything happen, but you can't do anything about it
These days, he seemed to be at ease with the situation, and lived a casual life, but he never let go of this matter in his heart, and occasionally thought about what would happen if he never went back.
Qiao Xuan looked at the calm lake surface in a daze...
At the beginning, I fell into this lake and saw the last illusion. The illusion turned into a long river in the underworld, and there was a mirror that could travel through time and space. This lake was also the last place he saw, where it intersected with the future...
Here, can I let myself go back
Qiao Xuan's heart suddenly beat faster, and suddenly he heard the voices around him quiet down. He turned his head and saw the man in white clothes and black hair walking towards him.
The man's cold and peerless appearance, against the background of the yushu and silver flowers, looks ethereal like smoke, with a strong sense of unreality.
At this moment, Qiao Xuan seemed to have returned to the illusion.
He looked up at the man and murmured: "Master..."
Why are you my master
Qiao Xuan had never thought about this question before, but now he had to think about it.
You chose me, or I chose you.
Taichu looked at the young man's eyes, which seemed to contain complicated emotions, a little confused, a little confused, a little helpless... Taichu's eyes softened, and he said: "What's wrong?"
Qiao Xuan shook his head.
Taichu smiled: "Let's go back..."
Qiao Xuan was silent for a moment, the current master is also very good and gentle, and the current Shu Chen... They are all real, and the life here is also very relaxed and happy. Qiao Xuan does not hate this place, but he does not belong here after all. Everything here is too good to be true, he still wants to go back, where another master is waiting for him to go home...
With everything he is familiar with...
He gritted his teeth, and suddenly jumped into the lake!
I don't know if I can go back like this, let's treat a dead horse as a living horse doctor!
The icy lake water touched his skin, and Qiao Xuan fell slowly. He opened his eyes and saw that Taichu showed an anxious expression, just like the future, jumped into the lake again, and stretched out his hand to him...
... ... ...
Qiao Xuan was in a daze, as if he was roasting in a fire.
The bone-chilling coolness wandered through the meridians, but the surging spiritual power was like a raging flame, almost burning him up. A painful sound escaped from his throat. He was almost unable to bear the pain... Suddenly a Qingliu seems to be heading down, as if there is a warm embrace to dispel all the pain...
Qiao Xuan's vision was hazy, and he raised his head to meet an extremely beautiful and familiar face. With water mist on his eyelashes, Qiao Xuan made an aggrieved and forbearing voice: "Master, I'm so sad..."
What's up with him
But the breath on Master's body was so comfortable, Qiao Xuan couldn't help approaching him, and hugged the other party's waist tightly, wishing to stick his whole body on it.
Taichu looked at the young man in his arms, his eyes darkened, and his voice seemed to be suppressed: "Don't make trouble..."
Qiao Xuan was extremely wronged, he didn't make a fuss at all, he just felt bad.
Taichu's thin lips were tightly pressed, his chest rose and fell slightly, and his eyes seemed to be struggling, but he did not push the boy away, but embraced him with one hand, and said in a hoarse voice, "I'm helping you dissolve your spiritual power, bear with it. "
The water of the lake was transformed by the spring of the earth's spirit. It takes only one drop a year, and it takes tens of thousands of years to form a lake. How can the powerful spiritual power contained in it be something that the little phoenix Qiao Xuan can bear? Dare to jump down without knowing anything, I really don't want to live!
Thinking of this, there was rarely a trace of sullenness in Taichu's eyes, but when he looked at the young man's red eyes, and his lips that seemed to be clenched because of pain, that anger finally turned into helplessness...
The little guy seemed to be very uncomfortable, and he was dishonest in his arms. He reached out to pull his clothes, and kept crawling into his arms.
A look of embarrassment rarely appeared on Taichu's face. Seeing that the boy didn't know what was serious, and even wanted to reach out to touch his lips, he finally raised his hand to hold the boy's restless hand tightly.
Qiao Xuan was hugged by the man, a powerful force was like warm water, enveloping his whole body, the uncontrollable spiritual power gradually calmed down, he didn't feel so uncomfortable, the top of his head brushed against the man's chin, His eyes fell on the man's neck...
Suddenly, he swallowed his saliva.
Messy things began to appear in his drowsy mind. Speaking of it, the master is really beautiful, so good to see that he is in awe, and even thinking about it feels like blasphemy. If he had ever faced such a beauty Are you indifferent
It's all because of the Love Tribulation of the Seventh World, which caused a sequelae of love, and almost turned himself into a monk with a heartless heart, but at this moment, the long-lost thought began to come up restlessly, but this is Master...
He is crazy to have such an idea.
Qiao Xuan finally came to his senses. He shook his head, put away the thoughts he shouldn't have, and didn't dare to look at the master's face. Nuonuo said, "I, what's wrong with me..."
Master's hair is still black, which means he didn't wear it back.
failed...
Seeing that the young man finally regained his senses in the early days, he said in a deep voice, "You can't bear the spiritual power of the earth's soul spring. I will help you refine this power. You must not be so reckless in the future, you understand?"
Qiao Xuan was startled.
Why, is this spiritual spring so powerful
But I skipped it once before, and nothing happened... Wait, what I saw that time was an illusion, and I have to put a question mark on whether the spring water is real or not...
Maybe everything is an illusion.
Qiao Xuan knew that life and death were at stake, and when he wasn't thinking about it, he nodded immediately to show that he understood.
Taichu let out a breath, and then realized that he was still holding the boy's hand, and let go as if he was electrocuted, and said without opening his eyes: "I'm teaching you now, you have to remember it well."
Qiao Xuan was also extremely embarrassed, his face was flustered, and he nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.
... ... ...
A month later, Qiao Xuan was finally out of danger, and this month, Taichu never left his side.
When Taichu finally left, Qiao Xuan breathed a sigh of relief.
He patted his face and told himself to be calm and calm, you are so courageous, you dare to fantasize about Master!
The most difficult thing is not cultivation, but...
As soon as Tai Chu came out, Shu Chen, who was waiting outside, saw that the seal was released, and immediately stepped forward anxiously and asked, "Senior brother, how is Qiao Xuan?"
Taichu didn't expect that Shu Chen had been waiting here, he was silent for a moment, and said: "It's okay, you can go in."
Shu Chen rushed in without hesitation.
Tai Chu looked at Shu Chen's back, pursed his thin lips slightly, but in the end he didn't stop, but turned and left.
Shu Chen rushed in, saw that Qiao Xuan was intact, let out a sigh of relief, and said with self-reproach: "Are you okay?"
He really regretted it. When his senior brother and Donggan Shengzun left and handed Qiao Xuan over to him, he should be optimistic about him, but he let Qiao Xuan separate from him, and accidentally fell into the spiritual spring. Fortunately, the senior brother discovered it in time, otherwise he might be burned to death by the spring water. Thinking of that possibility, Shu Chen was terrified.
Qiao Xuan saw Shuchen's worry and scratched his head, "I'm fine, don't worry."
Shu Chen squatted in front of Qiao Xuan, his eyes were full of complexities.
Qiao Xuan thought that he probably frightened Shu Chen, and said a little embarrassedly: "I'm really fine, but I can't go out with you for a while, I still have to practice..."
Although Master helped him resolve the most dangerous moment, the remaining spiritual power needs to be absorbed and digested by himself. Now is not the time to be lazy.
Shuchen nodded understandingly, and finally showed a smile: "I'll wait for you, yes... I recently read the classics and found a kind of sacred tree, called the wine god wood. It is said that the wine brewed from the wine god wood is unparalleled. , I invite you to drink the best wine!"
Qiao Xuan nodded.
Shu Chen left reluctantly.
... ... ...
Qiao Xuan concentrates on practicing in seclusion. Although he lives in the same valley as his master, close at hand, he is always careful not to leave the door, lest he bump into the master. Hmm... I still feel a little uncomfortable when I think of the day and night before...
Two months later, Qiao Xuan suddenly felt itchy and hot all over his body, which was strangely uncomfortable. Suddenly, he felt blessed in his soul, and turned into his original shape and fell to the ground.
The little white bird shook its wings impatiently, and suddenly a burst of flames burned from the inside out, and it burned him to ashes in the blink of an eye. In the handful of gray ashes, it seemed that something was breathing very lightly... Suddenly, a fierce phoenix cry resounded through the sky, and a golden phoenix flew out from the ashes.
The feathers of the phoenix are all light golden, very beautiful, and dazzling like the sun. The wings are several meters wide, and there are gusts of wind between the wings. The feathers look soft, but they are casual. With a wave of wings, the hard boulder was smashed to pieces!
He happily hovered in the sky for a while, then fell to the ground and turned into a beautiful boy.
The young man's appearance has not changed much from before, but there is a faint golden sparkle in the bottom of his eyes.
Qiao Xuan stood there giggling.
I didn't expect to become an adult so easily! It doesn't take more than ten thousand years, the feeling of being reborn from the ashes is great, Qiao Xuan clenched his fists, the level of force of the Phoenix family is different from that of humans, but he feels that he can fight with God now, and it will never be There is no way to fight back!
This is probably the happiest thing after traveling.
Qiao Xuan swept his eyes and found a corner of the golden feather faintly exposed from the pile of ashes, so he went to touch it and found a beautiful golden feather from the ashes, he couldn't help showing surprise.
He thought all his hair was burnt away, but there was one left. It seems that the hair on the top of his head is different...
Successful in cultivation, Qiao Xuan walked out excitedly, wanting to say good news to Master.
I don't know where the master is now...
Qiao Xuan walked out of the Hanging River Valley, and was about to ask someone to inquire, when he saw Luyuan Yuanjun approaching. Luyuan Yuanjun is a kind and honest man. During this time, Qiao Xuan was already familiar with him, so he greeted him politely : "Yuanjun."
Luyuan Yuanjun looked at Qiao Xuan and said in surprise: "Hey, the little guy has grown up now?"
Qiao Xuan smiled shyly and nodded.
Luyuan Yuanjun stroked his beard in satisfaction, and said with a smile: "Congratulations, yo, your plume is so beautiful, this is a treasure, you have to keep it well..."
Qiao Xuan asked suspiciously, "Oh?"
Luyuan Yuanjun saw that he didn't know anything. After all, he was sent to the holy mountain at such a young age, and he didn't live with his own ethnic group. The indestructible sharp weapon is a rare treasure whether it is used for self-defense or for refining, but the general Feng clan will not give it to others easily. people?"
Qiao Xuan's eyes lit up. It turned out to be a treasure. As for who to give it to, do you even need to think about it? Of course it was given to Master!
Thinking of this, he couldn't wait to run away.
Seeing the young man running away in the blink of an eye, Luyuan Yuanjun couldn't help but laugh dumbfounded when he thought of his bright eyes just now. It seems that he has someone in his heart that he wants to give away, but this little guy has just grown up and has a sweetheart up
By the way, he just forgot to say that the Feng Clan would usually give the most precious feathers to their sweethearts as tokens of love...
I heard that since the little guy came to the Holy Mountain, he has had a fierce fight with that guy Shuchen, and has been inseparable all day long. Maybe he likes Shuchen...
... ... ...
After running far away, Qiao Xuan realized that he wanted to ask the way, but he left without asking, but it doesn't matter, there are many gods on this holy mountain, so he asked a few other people, and learned that the master is ahead bamboo forest.
So I searched all the way.
The man sat among the bamboo forests, drinking tea and talking with God Han Yin.
Lord Hanyin saw Qiao Xuan coming, looked him up and down, and said with a smile, "Not bad, good progress."
Qiao Xuan smiled.
Hanyin Shenjun knew that the little apprentice was the most precious in the beginning, the apprentice had finally left the customs, and he had finished talking about his own affairs, so he didn't want to disturb them, so he turned around and left against the wind.
Qiao Xuan hasn't seen Master for a long time.
Speaking of which, since I crossed over, I have been under the care of my master. The master taught him to practice, gave him resources, and saved his life...but I never gave anything back. In fact, I have always felt very guilty.
He knows that the master helps him without asking for anything in return, and he also knows that he can do nothing for the master, but he is like a child. Although his parents give unconditionally, he also wants to do his best to express his heart. Since this feather is so powerful , it should be barely manageable...
Master also gave him a treasure, so of course he had to return the gift.
Qiao Xuan took a deep breath, took out the golden feather from behind, held it in front of Master with both hands, and coughed lightly: "Master, this is for you."
In the beginning, his expression was indifferent, until he saw what Qiao Xuan took out, his eyes finally showed surprise.
Shu Chen wandered around the holy mountain with a wine gourd. He has not been idle for the past few months. He went to find the wine god wood through untold hardships, and made a wine gourd with the wine god wood. He has tried the exhausted fine wine, and it is the best fine wine in the Three Realms! It is much better than the wine of the old fairy Ruibo. If such a treasure is given to Qiao Xuan, Qiao Xuan will be very happy...
And he didn't believe that the wine that Qiao Xuan drank before could be better than his own...
Shu Chen proudly thought that he would definitely surprise Qiao Xuan.
It's just that I don't know when Little Phoenix will be able to leave the level...
Shu Chen was extremely anxious, but he couldn't disturb him, so he had to take a walk on the holy mountain every day.
Strolling around, I met Luyuan Yuanjun.
Luyuan Yuanjun smiled and said: "Shuchen, do you know who I saw just now?"
Shu Chen was lazy and didn't want to pay attention to him at all.
Luyuan Yuanjun laughed and said: "Little Phoenix has left the customs."
Shu Chen paused as he was about to leave, his eyes lit up: "Really?"
Luyuan Yuanjun said: "What did I lie to you for?"
Shu Chen touched the wine gourd in his hand, showed an excited expression, and asked, "Where did he go?"
Luyuan Yuanjun pointed in a direction.
Shu Chen immediately left without looking back.
Before Luyuan Yuanjun took back his hand, Shu Chen had already run away, he could not help shaking his head and sighing, everyone is really impatient... I am old, I really can't compare with these young people...
Shuchen searched along the road, and finally came to the edge of the bamboo forest. When he saw Qiao Xuan's figure, he was about to go there in high spirits.
He saw the young man holding a golden feather, his eyes full of expectation, and he carefully handed it to Taichu.
