Lu Sang waited for a long time, but Yan Ji'an never caught up.
However, Xie Hui and Bai Zhi, the senior brothers who usually interacted with her, found her one after another and comforted her.
The little fat man was so angry at Nan Fuguang, but there was nothing he could do about it. When he kicked one away angrily, he said: "Little junior sister, don't be angry, the Immortal Lord is just confused for a moment!"
Bai Moxi nodded: "Anyone with eyes knows how Nan Fuguang is like you. You are a divine phoenix. After entering the sect, your cultivation is as fast as a divine help. Not to mention how amazing Nan Fuguang is at the golden elixir stage today. She How long have you been cultivating before you reach the golden elixir stage? I think sooner or later you will——"
Lu Sang wrung his fingers and lowered his head in silence.
With her eyes red, she whispered to them to stop talking. Senior sister and Yunshang Immortal were already a match made in heaven, so what did she have to do with them?
The disciples of the Medicine Pavilion looked at each other in disbelief.
Lu Sang looked at them, paused, and still couldn't help asking: "Where is the Immortal Lord at this moment?"
I heard that the Immortal Master Yunshang later met with the Immortal Alliance outside the sect, and then went to the residence of the sect leader Xie Cong. He disappeared after that and did not return to Taoting.
When Lu Sang heard this, she just said "Oh" without saying anything else, and returned to Tao Pavilion alone. After waiting for a long time, until dusk cut off the yin and yang, he never appeared in front of her, not even to scold her, "Why are you so worried today?" If Yu Jian leaves, no Yu Jian will be allowed to fly in the sect."
Lu Sang sat in the small palace in the side hall of Tao Pavilion. He felt that Tao Pavilion was indeed as other senior brothers and sisters said. It was one of the three main peaks. It was very cold at a high place and a little too quiet.
Tao Ting raised her eyes and looked at the peach trees outside the window. She thought of the white-clothed immortal under the peach trees, holding his natal sword in his hand, teaching swordsmanship with each move, and flowers falling on his shoulders at that time;
When she thought of the Fulong Sword being transferred from his hand to hers and immediately becoming her destiny sword, he said in a rare gentle voice, "This is your sword, it has been waiting for you for a long time;"
She thought of the high place of the marriage tree, where the marriage card with the name of her previous life was swaying in the wind, and the crown of the tree was rustling;
She thought of the man's gaze in her previous life, under the green Shatuo Sky-Splitting Sacred Tree, full of gentleness and tenderness under the moonlight...
Lu Sang sat stiffly on the edge of the bed until night fell.
From the instinctive dependence and trust at the beginning, to remembering the memory that once belonged to Shenfeng, it was too painful, and she would rather not remember anything at all.
She waited there with her eyes empty until she heard the muttering of the copper beast outside the Tao Pavilion. There was a group of light coming from far and near, and the sound of tiny footsteps came, and her eyes became focused.
Lu Sang has always been very quiet. In Taoting, she lived in seclusion. Every time she got up early and came home late, she tried hard to reduce her sense of presence. Until today, she made the most outrageous move in the Yun Tian Sect——
She stopped Immortal Yunshang who was crossing the threshold.
The latter was not surprised, and looked at him with the same gaze as he did at Qingyun Cliff today. It was as clear and quiet as the lake water. The Immortal Lord on the Cloud opened his thin lips lightly: "What's the matter?"
Lu Sang bit his lip and sat there for a long time. When he spoke, his voice was dull and hoarse: "The bond between you and Senior Sister..."
Yan Ji'an tilted his head and waited for her to continue.
Lu Sang asked with difficulty: "Is it true?"
"It's true." Yan Ji'an seemed to wonder what was worth emphasizing, "By the way, you happen to be here. At dawn tomorrow, you can call Taotao to help you pack your belongings. My teacher is already in Chiyue. Feng has arranged a place for you.”
For the first time, Lu Sang was so dazed that he thought he was hearing hallucinations.
Her pupils, which were overly focused due to nervousness a moment ago, became dilated. She raised her head suddenly and looked at the person in front of her in disbelief: "You want me to move away from Taoting?!"
Yan Ji'an thought carefully about what Nan Fuguang said today.
Then he summarized himself: "Men and women are not close to each other."
His body became weak and he took two steps back. Lu Sang never expected that this person would say such words in such a cold and plain tone. He choked for a long time and tears quickly filled his eyes.
"Did she teach you to say it?"
"No."
"She used this in exchange for letting the outsider from the sect move away from Taohua Ridge?"
No, she hasn't agreed yet.
Yan Ji'an watched the tears rolling down his little apprentice's eyes. Apart from the indifference at the beginning, his calm and handsome face was finally stained with a trace of confusion. Under the Taoist robe, his arms moved helplessly, and there was a wound on his shoulder. It hurts even more——
The confusion finally turned into impatience, and he frowned slightly.
"Lu Sang." He heard his own voice being cold and distant, "I told you, past lives and past lives don't count."
The big tears fell on the shoe surface with a "pop". Such ruthless words were like a giant sword thrust into the heart. Lu Sang's silver teeth were about to bite him into pieces. He couldn't believe why there were such inhuman creatures in the three realms and six realms——< br>
"Yan Zhenlin!" She wiped her tears fiercely, "You will definitely regret it!"
Outside the Tao Pavilion, the night wind was blowing, and the dry autumn wind was mixed with falling peach blossom petals, which was actually a bit desolate.
……
Nan Fuguang woke up in the middle of the night without warning.
She opened her sour eyes, and unexpectedly heard the chirping of insects that could only be heard when everything was completely still. The window was half-closed, allowing the cool wind to blow in, and the dreamcatcher bell hanging on the bed curtain sounded.
Amidst the clanking sound, Nan Fuguang used a spell in a daze, and the golden light that appeared in front of her eyes told her that this was the ugly moment.
She rubbed her eyes and sat up. She couldn't remember how she went from Jingtan to supervise the pig butcher's fishing and finally had dinner and returned to Taohualing. Recently, she often fell into this kind of hazy confusion, as if there was something in her head. Despite the lingering fog, sometimes when the hour comes, she will still wonder whether Duan Nan died today and where is my mining robe.
She had returned to Yuntian Sect long ago.
Nan Fuguang slipped from the bed and didn't hear any sound, but he still walked out as if he had been summoned by the night and was possessed by evil spirits. On the couch outside, the pig butcher was sleeping soundly. A corner of the blanket slipped and fell to the ground. Nan Fuguang The light picked it up for him and covered it.
When she bent over, her hair got tangled with the tassels on the edge of the blanket. Nan Fuguang couldn't see clearly in the dark. She raised her hand and silently passed through her hair, like a subtle sword energy, and the hair was neatly cut.
The pig butcher's gentle and even breaths lingered, and he slowly and half-opened his eyes.
I don't know whether this person is relaxed or alert. Nan Fuguang kept holding the blanket in his hand: "It's okay, go to sleep."
The man yawned, turned over, and let her long hair that hung down from her bend sweep over his arm.
There was a pause.
He said slowly: "The animal smell on you is gone."
Nan Fuguang recalled for no reason that she was carrying pig intestines back to the sect the day she first met the pig butcher, and was opposed by Yan Ji'an.
She asked the butcher to speak with respect.
The butcher smiled perfunctorily in reply.
Nan Fuguang was about to say that secret love is a matter of one person. You don't have to be so possessive, then it becomes a clear love.
Suddenly the man's voice rang in his ears again, still in that casual tone: "Did you hear anything?"
heard it.
It is those sticky and timid whispers heard in the dark tunnels of the Dairi Mine...
That voice was like a ghost haunting me, like a nightmare that I couldn't wake up from, and it came again after a few days.
However, the difference was that when Nan Fuguang followed those sounds carefully, she realized that she could occasionally understand what they said like before, like ancient lyrics being chanted out of tune, mechanically repeating intermittently... again It's like two people quarreling.
["The universe is chaotic and has no distinction between heaven and earth. The world was originally an ice field, with only the sacred tree covering the heaven and earth."]
This is the first sentence of the first volume of the full text of the "Shatuo Split the Sky Tree" code, which Nan Fuguang knows.
But soon, another voice sounded, full of aggression.
【Are you awake? 】
[It’s very cold under the net pool. 】
[Aren’t you being hooked by a fishhook now? 】
【snort. 】
Out? who? Who was fished out of the net pool?
[The universe is a false concept.
The tree cannot cover the world, it is just a demonic tree that appears unplanned. 】
[Oh, you discovered it? 】
[It’s hard to suffocate. Civilization has become more ridiculous and ignorant than when I was sleeping in Jingtan. Now even the people in the three realms are kept in the dark like the crimes in the earth realm, right?
Do they still believe in that demon tree?
"The three columns of horizontal, vertical and vertical arithmetic and time are the secret to mastering everything"? This statement is so outlandish!
Do they believe that these four sets of numbers will eventually lead them to break through the existing constraints?
Do they believe that because of that stupid tree, sooner or later they will be able to touch the vast, unknowable, and unimaginable wider area and obtain countless resources? 】
【……】
[There is no universe at the end of the impure sea.
There is only one wall of ice that can never be climbed.
We call it ‘Breath of Dawn’, symbolizing the place where it all began.
No one knows what lies beyond that, the sea, the desert, the sky, or something we have yet to define.
There are also intelligent races unknown to us.
Am I right? 】
【Don’t ask me. 】
【You know everything. Because you are from the other side of the ice wall. 】
It seemed that he had been holding back his words for many years. His tone was a little urgent, and his voice was low but with the crispness of a young man.
He ridiculed this and criticized that, which reminded Nan Fuguang of the old man who taught regular morning classes in Yuntian Sect. He often attacked Xie Cong personally because his students were too stupid, accusing him of being greedy and accepting all idiots as inner disciples.
Nan Fuguang thinks this is a bad habit of scholars. Because they have ink in their stomachs, they are inevitably aloof and pedantic sometimes. Fortunately, after a certain amount of nagging, the voice stopped chattering, and the sarcastic meaning subsided. When the whisper gradually became clearer, he cleared his voice heavily, as if he had something solemn to announce——
[The universe is chaotic and has no distinction between heaven and earth. The world was originally an ice sheet.
The ice sheet was shrouded in the 'Breath of Dawn', and all living things ceased to exist. Until an unforgettable day, the 'Breath of Dawn' was opened, and a being with higher wisdom came from afar, and he brought with him Give civilization and new life within the ice wall. 】
[...Then he finished the job halfway and walked away irresponsibly. 】
【Tsk. 】
[‘Tsk’ what? Why did you become the one complaining? 】
[Do you think you are the only one who has been locked up in some dark place for thousands of years? 】
Nan Fuguang: "?"
This sound did not come from the outside world. It was as if two invisible and very temperamental things were standing on Nan Fuguang's shoulders, holding her neck, and one of them stretched out half of his head to hold her chin. Quarrel——
The sound couldn't be blocked, it became clearer and louder.
Nan Fuguang had a headache from their quarrel and wanted them to shut up, but found that he didn't even know who to target when he lost his temper.
She seems to be suffering from schizophrenia.
She decided to go to the Medicine Pavilion after Chen Shi (Chen Shi again) (even the Medicine Pavilion where she swore she would not take a step even if her head was ripped off) to grab the supplementary medicine.
[How do you say "Only the sacred tree covers the heaven and earth"? Tell me about that tree. 】
【You really don’t know anything. 】
[You also said that I was dispatched by him at the end. 】
[That tree was an accident. No one knows how it came into being. If something goes wrong, there must be a monster. It won't be a good thing. 】
[Everything is out of control, right? "A divine phoenix and a true dragon were born lying down under the hollow tree in Shatuo. From then on, the heaven and earth first opened, and then divided into yin and yang." What about this paragraph? 】
[Someone shot himself in the foot. 】
【ah? 】
[Civilization originally progressed in an orderly manner at a primitive and reassuring speed, until a tree that was not part of the plan rose from the ground and penetrated the three realms.
Someone himself doesn't know what is going on with that tree.
Someone wanted to comply with the development of cause and effect, but was not happy with things that were not planned, so he made his first creation... As you can see, the clay figurine was created from a rabbit with weak hands. Being strong and disobedient is even more irritating. 】
【……】
[The creation of the divine phoenix and the true dragon was successful, but after they came to the world, they quickly coexisted with the tree, exchanged resources, and collaborated with others. 】
【What? 】
[God is isolated. 】
[A hearty car rollover. Laughing to death. 】
[So when were you dispatched? 】
[After he discovered that the divine phoenix and the real dragon did not listen to his orders and were colluding with the tree, he had to find a firm foreign aid to completely destroy the tree. 】
[Now I know what you're laughing at, it's really funny. 】
Nan Fuguang: "..."
Nan Fuguang was forced to listen to a completely unfamiliar history of the development of pheasant civilization.
"The Shatuo Sky-Splitting Tree" records: "In ancient times, the universe was chaotic and there was no distinction between heaven and earth. The world was a piece of ice, and only the sacred tree covered the heaven and earth. A divine phoenix and a true dragon were born under the Shatuo Sky-Splitting Tree. From then on, the world began Open it and divide it into yin and yang."
Now someone tells her that except for the first sentence, the rest is false?
The civilization of the Three Realms did not start from the Shatuo Sky Tree rising from the ground, but from a higher intelligent creature...
god?
The real dragon and the divine phoenix were created by him.
Created to deal with the unplanned growth of the Shatuo Skybreak Tree.
But they betrayed, so God had to bring reinforcements from the world he came from, and a war was about to break out.
This is not the first time that Nan Fuguang has heard someone question whether "Shatuo Splits the Sky Tree", the book that she grew up hearing about as a foundation for shaping the worldview, is lying——
She remains neutral on the matter.
There once was a highly intelligent creature that came to the Three Realms and Six Paths. Who was that person and what was he doing?
Where are you now?
Did he leave when the Shatuo Split Sky Tree withered?
Nowadays, no one in the world of immortality has successfully ascended for thousands of years, and countless people are stuck in the low-level stage and cannot break through. Is it related to him?
Why did the existence of the Sand Tuo Tracer Tree bother him so much that he had to get rid of it to avoid future troubles?
Were the true dragons and divine phoenixes created by him?
Nan Fuguang thought about it and was puzzled. However, at some point, the voices of those two people in his ears disappeared.
She later recalled that one of the slightly childish voices was quite similar to the voice she had heard in the tunnel of Dainri Mine.
It's a strong voice.
……
The senior sister of Yuntian Sect was in a brief void where her outlook on life was in chaos. On the other hand, she was thinking that if she had known that there was such a strange content in the mine tunnels, she would not have been so scared at that time.
She turned her head and wanted to ask the pig butcher, who was holding the quilt at the moment, if he heard what the two loud-mouthed guys were saying. Suddenly, she heard a commotion outside.
When Nan Fuguang walked out of Taohua Ridge, he found that it was dawn outside.
But it wasn't really that the sun was rising. In fact, there was an unusual phenomenon in the sky across the entire world of immortality.
Accompanied by a muffled sound of "bang", like fireworks set off at an earthly festival, they exploded in the sky. A golden and blue light without any origin appeared on a certain sand tree hidden behind the thick clouds. Up...
When the light begins to spread.
The whole night was like the opening of a drama, and gradually became brighter and brighter like day.
There are no stars in this night, only light spots scattered in all directions. If they are knocked over by the invisible hand, they will fall to the golden sand in the sky, jumping, floating and spreading in irregular ways——
Finally, from far, far away from the horizon, a sharp phoenix blast tore apart the silent night sky.
From a very far away place, the golden sand light spots gradually converged into a strange picture.
Several figures of light appeared in the sky, and the beating of light and sand gave them lifelike outlines——
The leader has long hair, a petite figure, and is obviously a woman. She has a long skirt, wide sleeves, and a flowing robe, and the huge bird-like wings behind her are spread out;
Behind her, there were many, many creatures of all kinds.
The sky-killing chaos beast with one-horned fangs was supposed to guard Beiming Xuanmen;
The last sighting was of the Spread-Winged Whale sinking into the abyss of the Impure Sea;
There are dog-like people active around the Big Sun Mine, with bald heads, less than a human knee height, and pointed ears and long noses;
Further back, there is a tall and strong warrior holding a giant ax;
The long-sword monk has his hair tied up and a high crown, with six swords of mysterious light floating in the air behind him;
There is a young man carrying a huge scythe on his back, a girl holding a spiritual hammer in her hand, and even a slender and charming woman with delicate outlines holding a long piece of paper in the shape of a talisman...
The horizon is like a sand painting displayed on a huge curtain, these lifelike people are dynamic——
Crossing the sky above Yuntian Sect, it seems as if you are skipping over the mountains and the sky. Stepping on the dead branches of the cracked tree in the sand, you are running and restless, as if you are chasing some kind of prey!
"What is that?"
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh... go and inform the sect leader!"
"Brother, this is so spectacular, have you seen it!"
"What kind of joyful tone are you talking about? Is it a good thing that the stars are out of order? Everyone has asked you to study hard - is the sect leader here!
"The stars are falling, the heaven will warn! Hurry! Go to Guixing Pavilion!"
The Yuntian Sect, which was supposed to meditate and fall into silence late at night, encountered an unprecedented commotion that night. Chiri Peak is located at an extremely high level. Standing at Taohua Ridge, Nan Fuguang can see the dormitories, practice rooms, and caves of the entire Yuntian Sect on each hilltop. Inside, disciples of all levels walked to the open space in twos and threes——
They were all sleepy-eyed and confused at first, then raised their heads and looked at the sky, dumbfounded.
They were all talking about the strange phenomenon in the sky. The younger disciples didn't know why and were so impressed by the spectacle. The older ones read more, and maybe they had some idea of what everything that was happening right now might mean, so they ran to look for the sect leader. .
Under the peach blossom tree, a cool wind blew by.
"Is your world of cultivating immortals always so lively? What is that?"
A lazy male voice sounded from behind.
Nan Fuguang didn't look back, but she was a little bit cold by the wind. She folded her arms and looked at the sky with an expressionless face until a warm blanket fell on her shoulders.
She looked down and saw the strand of broken hair tangled on the edge, and realized in a daze that this was definitely not a dream.
Lowering his eyes, he raised his hands and closed the blanket with complicated emotions: "'Wild Hunting'."
Wild Hunt.
A revelatory vision whose origin cannot be traced. According to records, this phenomenon may have first appeared on a foreign continent on the other side of the Impure Sea about five hundred years ago.
That continent was in the midst of unprecedented war and turmoil. The rulers were cruel and ruthless, and massacred several cities in succession in order to conquer land and wealth.
If you offend the gods, they will punish you.
That day, the sky was suddenly filled with bright stars, and then the stars were dancing. Humans, monsters, and evil spirits gathered into a picture scroll and appeared in the night sky. Led by Valkyrie, who was a famous female general at the time, they were like an army. , silently and magnificently passing over fields, streams, mountains and plains...
It's like a wild hunt at night.
After that, within ten days, in the king's territory, the subjects of the royal capital suddenly died for no reason, the river embankments dried up, and smelly and sticky blood randomly poured out. The blood spread into the city, an insect plague covered the dealers, and an unknown high-infection and high-fatality rate appeared in the royal capital. of plague.
On the eleventh day, the king died suddenly on the Black Iron Throne, and the kingdom was destroyed.
After a long time.
The indigenous people who had been expelled and oppressed returned to the ruined land. They rebuilt, reclaimed, and established a new order. The cracked land that was once judged unable to be cultivated ushered in new life and the possibility of abundant harvests.
"Some scholars believe that the 'Wild Hunt' phenomenon does not actually exist. It is just a female general from a foreign continent who massacred a city and led her followers to revel in the fields at night... Later, for some reason, the theory changed. People said that it was the woman who died miserably in the brutal war. The female general turned into a harvest goddess, so She would pass through the fields, followed by her loyal soldiers who died through fire and water regardless of right and wrong in order to protect her. Later, this saying became more and more widespread, and eventually became people's original way of referring to "people who are not innocent and died unexpectedly" A symbol of fear.”
Nan Fuguang's hand holding the blanket tightened: "Regarding this phenomenon, different civilizations and different continents have different records. The composition of the army or the appearance of the attendants, and whether the biological composition of the composition includes non-humanoid creatures such as Warcraft, they Is it noisy when it appears... The leader of the team is usually a woman, but her identity varies depending on the area where the wild hunting phenomenon occurs. ”
Such a huge team, with their horse hooves stepping on the clouds, silently, ran away in unity towards the west where the sun would set.
Nan Fuguang looked up and felt a little sore at the back of her neck. She raised her hand and rubbed the back of her neck: "It's just like different civilizations will use different angles to describe the Shatuo Split Sky Tree and even give it other names. For 'Crazy' As a symbol of the phenomenon of hunting, the more common saying is that the appearance of "wild hunting" means that the coming year will be a good harvest year..."
"Where are the others?"
Is there anything else?
‘Wild Hunt’ is a warning of disaster, a sign before the end.
……
Thousands of troops are about to roll over like rolling clouds.
At this time, there was something strange in the sky. In the golden light group, the leading female leader turned her head.
"Those in power are unkind, and there are dead souls who bear injustice. The truth should be completely exposed, otherwise heaven will bring disaster."
The cold voice of Senior Sister Yuntian Sect was almost covered up by the screams of other disciples echoing in the mountains below, and the hand rubbing the back of her neck stopped in surprise.
"What's wrong?" The man's voice was low and slow in the night wind.
"Have you seen it?" Nan Fuguang turned his head, his dark eyes flashing with confusion, "She has the face of Lu Sang."
