Chapter 14: No respect for wolves
On a snowy night in the ice field, the howling north wind swept across the vast land like a blade.
Zuo Lingquan stood on the ice with a sword at his waist and a hat on his head. The cloak behind him fluttered in the wind, making a soft sound of "Puff--".
Tuanzi also wore a small bamboo hat with leaves, and hung a small branch on his back as a sword. He stood at his feet and said in a deep voice: "Chi Chi Chi..."
Although I don't understand it, judging from the posture, it should mean something like "A lonely shadow on the cold river, old friends in the rivers and lakes, why do we have to know each other before".
Behind, the ice elephant stopped at the edge of the ice lake. Several women jumped down. Mei Jinshui came to the ice surface and felt a little:
"It's right here, go down and have a look."
Xie Qiutao and Miss Qiu came to Zuo Lingquan together. With a swing of their pipa, they made a hole in the ice several feet deep, and then threw the ball in.
"grumble?"
Tuanzi's eyes were full of shock, and he spread his wings to show that he was a firebird. As a result, he was hugged by Qiutao who jumped down and pushed him into the water.
In order to avoid suspicion, Mei Jinshui did not follow him into the water. Naturally, Shangguan Yutang and Cui Yingying couldn't leave Mei Jinshui alone, so they stayed together as a lookout.
Zuo Lingquan was determined to make a quick decision and without wasting any time, he took Miss Qiu's hand and jumped directly into the icy lake.
Plop——
After entering the water, the sound of wind and snow was blocked by the ice, and the whole world became quiet.
Xie Qiutao is like a little fish, holding a dumpling in one hand and holding a glowing lighting bead in his left hand, looking to dive into the depths of the lake.
Tuanzi was spitting bubbles like "GuluGulu~", looking like "the bird is dying".
The inland lake hidden under the ice has not seen the light of day for who knows how many years. There are no fish or shrimps in the lake, and there is no scenery at the bottom of the lake. However, it is not small in size, probably no less than a hundred miles in diameter.
Zuo Lingquan followed Qiu Tao, and after swimming for a while without seeing any clues, he turned his attention to his side.
Miss Qiu was dressed in a white dress, swimming like a mermaid around her. Her slender body movements were quite beautiful, and her iceberg-like face was very focused.
Sensing Zuo Lingquan looking over, Miss Qiu blinked her eyes, and after taking a glance, she wanted to loosen her hands, lest Zuo Lingquan would get bored and start following the clues again.
Zuo Lingquan was not in such a hurry - mainly because Mei Jinshui was on top, and there was a high probability that he could see his behavior. In order to clear his name as a 'little thief', he had to behave himself.
Zuo Lingquan just swam to the back of Miss Qiu, hugged her waist, led her to swim forward, and said softly:
"Are you tired? I'll take you away."
? ?
Before Miss Qiu could speak, Taotao, who was seriously hunting for treasures in front, turned back with a slightly strange look in her big eyes:
"Master Zuo, aren't I tired?"
"Gulu..." Tuanzi also nodded.
Zuo Lingquan swam towards Qiu Tao with a smile on his face, wanting to hold them both in his arms, but Qiu Tao got scared and swam away quickly:
"Forget it, I'm just kidding. You and Sister Guagua have a good time making out. She has missed you so much these days. She stays on the deck all day as a watcher and doesn't listen to my music anymore."
"Qiu Tao!"
Miss Qiu was hugged from behind by Zuo Lingquan. She was already embarrassed. When she saw Qiu Tao adding insult to injury, she cried out in embarrassment, then turned to look at Zuo Lingquan:
"Let go, I can walk on my own. The ancestors are watching from above, how can we hug each other properly?"
Zuo Lingquan didn't move his hands or feet, he just wanted to hug Guagua. He ignored the protest and said seriously:
"Watch the road and don't get distracted."
"you……"
Miss Qiu was helpless. After thinking about it, she said displeasedly:
"You bully the weak and shy away from the strong. You are so domineering in front of me. Once you are in front of the ancestor and Shangguan Lingye, you obey my words..."
Qiu Tao smiled and interjected: "That's not the case. Old Ancestor and Sister Lingye really dare to deal with Young Master Zuo. Senior Sister Gua is reluctant to beat him, and without Sister Lingye's skill, Young Master Zuo is naturally domineering."
"Jiji..." Tuanzi was very interested in this topic, and turned around to teach Guagua. What he meant was - mainly, nanny, you are not coquettish enough, and you are far worse than Lingye nanny. Look at Shuishui, she got so horny that A Quan was so scared that she ran away in the middle of the night, wishing she had a gentleman written all over her face...
Zuo Lingquan naturally disagreed with this evaluation. He shook his head and said:
"Who said that, in front of Ancestor and Lingye, I should still be as thick-skinned as a city wall."
"Are you still confident? A dignified swordsman should be serious and keep away from others. Only women can stick to you. How can you be so shameless as to stick to women..."
Miss Qiu was too innocent and couldn't handle Zuo Lingquan, so she could only use these big principles to express her inner protest against being frivolous. Seeing that Zuo Lingquan was just hugging him and not following the clues, his body gradually relaxed.
The three of them just chatted and walked along the bottom of the lake for several miles. Xie Qiutao judged the Feng Shui direction according to the guidance of the dream, and finally stopped at a stone beach at the bottom of the lake.
Zuo Lingquan let go of Miss Qiu's waist and used his mountain-moving powers to remove the gravel and sand at the bottom of the lake. In just a moment, the roof of an ancient palace appeared in front of several people.
The emblem of Xuanwutai hangs on the front of the stone hall. There is no seal on the door, but it is closed by a huge stone.
Xie Qiutao was very familiar with the formation theory of his ancestors. After pondering for a moment outside the stone palace, he came to an altar outside the gate and placed his painted pipa on it.
Zuo Lingquan stood aside and looked at it, and he could see that when the 'Rounding Palace Thunder' touched the base, it began to bloom with five-color streamers, turning the surrounding lake bottom into colorful colors.
Boom——
Boom——
As a few pipa sounds came out, light emerged from the door of the stone palace, and a translucent white figure slowly condensed in front of the door. He was wearing a robe and holding a pipa in his arms.
Xie Qiutao's eyes were startled, and he quickly stepped forward and bowed:
"Meet the ancestors."
But there was no response from the figure that emerged.
Zuo Lingquan had a slight perception, but did not notice the fluctuation of his soul, so he said:
"It's just an image left by the ancient ancestors. It should have something to warn future generations."
Seeing this, Xie Qiutao secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but he was still very serious and listened carefully to the oral instructions left by his ancestors.
But what the three of them never expected was that the ancestor of the Xie family appeared in front of the door, and the first thing he said was angrily:
"Damn it! I knew that these unfilial sons of the Xie family would ruin the family business..."
? !
Xie Qiutao shrank his neck when he was yelled at, and quickly bowed to apologize, but after thinking about it, he said strangely:
"Ancestor, how do you know that we have completely ruined our family business?"
The virtual image in front of the stone palace has no consciousness at all. It is just playing back recordings from ancient times. Naturally, it will not answer and continues:
"Fortunately, I had already predicted it and had a plan in advance. Now that the devil has come to the world again, Jiuzhou is in danger, and my Xuanwu Tower has protected the world for thousands of years. Even if I die and my clan is destroyed, I can't just stand by and watch. Since you have the palace-circling thunder, no matter you are If you are not a descendant of the Xie family, I will help you. No matter how powerful the demon is, I hope you will not be afraid of the enemy. Throughout the ages, the demon has come to the world nearly a hundred times and slaughtered the world for thousands of years, but the human race has never lost once..."
Although the situation deduced by the Xie family ancestors was different from the actual situation, making these words sound inappropriate, Zuo Lingquan and others could still feel the heroic spirit of the Jiuzhou ancestors from their words.
From the words of the ancestors of the Xie family, several people also understood that what was left here was the 'Xuanwu blood' that was the source of the Xie family's origins.
The first head of the Xie family was the Xuanwu Divine Envoy. The power of the Divine Envoy can be seen from Jing Xun and Mei Jinshui. Although they are in human form, they are essentially demigods and are no longer the same species as mortals. .
Natural angels are different from man-made ones like Zuo Lingquan. They have an extremely close connection with the gods.
Before the end of the day, the ancestor of the Xie family relied on his lifelong relationship with the gods to seek Xuanwu blood that could reshape his body and transform his body into a god, and sealed it here for emergencies.
When the shadow in front of the stone hall finished speaking, Zuo Lingquan saw that the stone door separated to the left and right, and a gap appeared.
Colorful streams of light poured out from it, surrounding the painted pipa, and then, guided by the thunder weapon spirit around the temple, they merged into the eyebrows of the three people, and even separated into a stream of light, floating towards the ice. It seemed that the target should be Cui Yingying.
As for Jing Xun and Mei Jinshui, they probably have extremely strong physiques, but they are not wasted. The same is naturally true for Tuanzi.
"Jiji?"
Tuanzi watched eagerly as the vast divine power floated out from the gate and flew to several people. He quickly swam up and opened his beak to catch it.
As a result, Liu Guang went around directly, not even bothering Tuan Tuan, which made Tuan Zi very angry.
Zuo Lingquan picked up the angry dumpling and carefully felt the power flowing into his eyebrows. He found that his already perfect body had not changed much, but he vaguely felt a hint of "no". Unexplained opportunity.
Boom——
It was also at this moment that the sky thundered, and a loud thunderclap came from above the ice lake...
------
The wind and snow are blowing.
Among the endless mountains and rivers, Fujisheng is walking on the knee-deep snow with a long sword on his back. Although his movements are not hurried or slow, every step he takes is a hundred miles away. The surrounding scenery seems to be floating in an illusion. Change.
Beishou Continent is vast and sparsely populated. It is not easy to find a mountain monk who may have left in Yi Continent. It can be said to be futile.
After several days of searching to no avail, Teng Sheng couldn't help but feel depressed in his heart, feeling that the world was really unfair.
Fujisheng is a wolf, and he was adopted by the sword god Huang Chao since he was a child. He regards him as his son and successor, and teaches him with all his heart, hoping that one day he will "grow up".
Teng Sheng has always been grateful to ancestor Huang Chao, but he has to live up to his master's teachings, because he was born as a wolf and was taught to become a human, forgetting his roots. The more his master taught him etiquette, justice, integrity, and shame, the more he couldn't live with this problem in his heart. Hom, wolves can't do it, and humans can't do it.
As an Immortal Lord, Fuji Sheng didn't know that the path he was on was a dead end and it was impossible to achieve it.
But it cannot openly regard itself as a human being and slaughter its former compatriots; nor can it act according to the habits of the demon clan and regard the human race that trained it as its enemy. The only thing it can do is to do its best to turn Jiuzhou into an impossible peach blossom land. , both sides are brothers to each other, so naturally neither side owes anything.
After three thousand years of ups and downs, Teng Sheng has done a lot, and worked hard to push the wild and bloodthirsty demon tribe into civilization; he also made the demon tribe understand filial piety, benevolence, righteousness, and etiquette.
As long as he gives it enough time, he is confident that he can teach it from generation to generation until the demon race completely becomes like the human race. Everyone writes the same words, speaks the same language, behaves in the same style, and talks about the same topics. The eternal blood feud that remains from the barbaric era. Naturally it gradually faded away.
But this situation is obviously not what the human race wants to see.
Ancestor Huang Chao regarded it as his own and treated it as a human being. He wanted it to fundamentally forget its origins and become a human completely, instead of respecting its origins and tolerating it even though it was a wolf. Accept it.
Even the Huangchao ancestors were like this, and the rest of the human race was self-evident; they could show mercy to the demons, but they would never treat them as their brothers. Once the dominance of the human race was threatened, the human race would immediately let the demons understand why humans could become the masters of all spirits.
The human race was wary of it, and the demons did not understand it. Now the butcher's knife fell on his head. Teng Sheng looked around and found that there was no one to rely on. He could only move forward alone in the wind and snow. Even the mind of the immortal king was a little more lonely and tired.
But Teng Sheng walked slowly and never stopped.
After all, in addition to being a wolf, it was also a swordsman.
Swordsmen have always been single-handedly with a sword, cutting through thorns and thorns, and walking on a path that has never been seen before and will never be seen again.
Even if he was pointed at by thousands of people and spurned by all races, as long as he had a sword in his hand, what was there to fear?
Teng Sheng traveled through thousands of miles of mountains and rivers, and his slightly impetuous state of mind gradually settled down.
Now that he is suspected by the demon clan, and cannot turn the tables with Mei Jinshui and besieged by Jiuzhou, he wants to stabilize the situation and win the hearts of the people. In addition to finding the culprit Zuo Lingquan and killing him as a warning to the public, there is another way:
Go to the righteous path to show off your sword and kill an immortal king. With absolute strength, let the demon clan believe that it is not necessary to eliminate dissidents, and at the same time warn the human race not to play with fire and burn themselves.
This method is very passionate, but the feasibility is very low.
Among the six immortal kings of the righteous path, only Shangguan Yutang has taken action, and the others are all unfathomable.
Shangguan Yutang mainly cultivates "shield and mace", both of which are the best solutions to deal with sword skills. Teng Sheng, a sword cultivator, ran to fight Shangguan Yutang in order to prove his strength. Obviously, it is a bit too irrational.
Among the other five people, without knowing their strength, the only one who can be killed is Xiao Qingming, a soft persimmon.
But Xiao Qingming is a casual cultivator, running all over the nine continents and four seas, and it is harder to find him than Zuo Lingquan...
Teng Sheng stopped at the top of a mountain, looked around, and just when he didn't know where to go, there was a sudden thunder and lightning in the depths of the ice field, and a vast power of heaven came.
The influence of the power of heaven is so large that it covers the entire Beishu Continent, and I'm afraid even overseas can feel it faintly.
"Forget the thunder tribulation..."
Teng Sheng frowned slightly, thinking about the cultivators in Beishu Continent who had forgotten half a step, no one or monster dared to go through the tribulation without saying hello, and just went through the tribulation like this.
But let's talk about Zuo Lingquan. When it was chasing all over the world, it was swaggering to go through the thunder tribulation in the territory of the monster clan, fearing that it couldn't find its location. I'm afraid it was a bit too arrogant.
Is it a trick...
Teng Sheng hesitated for a moment, and soon rushed towards the ice field.
After all, it is a lone wolf. No matter how deceitful it is, it has to take the trick. It has come to this point and cannot be afraid to move forward...
