An old friend from the past?
Jiang Sheng looked around and saw that above the sea water, a building ship of more than 100 feet was rising and falling with the waves.
The ship is very luxurious, decorated with jade and jewelry, inlaid with coral clams as the base, the deck is covered with brocade, the pavilions are covered with flowers, and there are groups of maids.
Although there is no identification mark, from the clam girl Shark Girl on the boat, we can know the identity of the owner of the boat, he must be a nobleman from the East China Sea.
On the building boat, the person shouting at Jiang Sheng was indeed an old friend of Jiang Sheng.
In the past, Ao Ke was the dragon son of the Thirteenth Palace of the East China Sea in the realm of mountains and rivers.
Although the dragon clans in the East China Sea and South China Sea were all cleaned up by Xuanmen, some less important dragons still remained.
After the merger of the three realms, these surviving dragon clans in the East China Sea and South China Sea naturally received the title of Heavenly Court and guarded the two southeastern seas for Heavenly Court.
At this time, Ao Ke was wearing a brocade robe that turned waves and clouds, and a flying dragon bead crown on his head. He looked handsome, graceful and noble.
Standing in the pavilion, Ao Ke looked at Jiang Sheng with a smile.
Looking at Ao Ke, a dark look flashed in Jiang Sheng's eyes.
Although his itinerary is not a secret, few people know when and where he will appear.
Even the Divine Lord of Eastern Earth cannot know when he will leave the Eastern Earth realm.
But as soon as he left Luzhou in the Eastern Region, he met Ao Ke, an old friend from the past.
Did we meet by chance, or have we been waiting for you here?
Thoughts were swirling in his mind, but looking at Ao Ke, Jiang Sheng still landed on the ship.
Ao Ke also breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Jiang Sheng lowering his head: "I thought that Zhenjun had forgotten this old man."
Jiang Sheng smiled and said: "Three Realms Everyone knows that Jiang Sheng is a nostalgic person, so how can he not remember his old friend?" Ao Ke's expression moved slightly when he heard this, and he stretched out his hand to signal: "True Lord, please"
Jiang Sheng happily entered the pavilion. Everywhere he looked, he saw clouds flowing with beads, copper stoves burning incense, shark maids dancing gracefully, clam girls holding beads, and dragon girls pouring wine. It looked like the luxury of a dragon palace.
Ao Ke invited Jiang Sheng to take a seat, and then poured wine for Jiang Sheng himself: "Since the farewell to the Zheng Kingdom in the past, although the True Lord had been to the Golden Elixir Ceremony, the Yuan Shen Dharma Assembly, and Xiaolong, the True Lord was surrounded by people at that time. They are all the true successors of the Holy Land, the geniuses of all sides."
"Xiaolong's meager cultivation level has made him unable to enter the main palace."
"And since the rebellion of the East China Sea Dragon Palace, Xiaolong has been hiding in hiding. Tibet is afraid of being sent to the dragon-slaying platform in Penglai. If we think about it carefully, we have not seen the true king for more than three hundred years. "
"The three realms are united, the heaven and the earth are determined, and His Majesty the Emperor of Heaven allows us and the dragon clan to guard the sea. , Xiaolong also got the position of Shepherd of the Sea Territory to guard the East Sea Territory for His Majesty."
After saying that, Ao Ke sighed, his face full of vicissitudes of life: "For more than three hundred years, the world has gone through many vicissitudes. Xiaolong is still trapped in the state of becoming a god, but Zhenjun is already a fairy."
Jiang Sheng looked at the fragrant and elegant wine in front of him, picked up the wine cup and took a sniff.
“Hundred Fruit Brewing.”
This is the spiritual brew that Ao Ke invited when he and Jiang Sheng first met in Zhengdu, Zheng State. It is brewed with one hundred and eight kinds of spiritual fruits. The wine is made with sweet and pure wine pulp and light fruity aroma.
For Jiang Sheng and Ao Ke, who were only in the Purple Mansion realm at that time, Baiguo Nong was a rare treasure.
At this time, Jiang Sheng was in the realm of refining the void, and Ao Ke had also reached the realm of spiritual transformation. This hundred-fruit wine has no effect on the two of them. Tasting it once is just to reminisce about the past. .
Is it too slow to go from Zi Mansion to Transformation God in three hundred years?
It’s not slow anymore.
The realm of Zifu has a lifespan of five hundred years, the realm of the Golden Pill has a lifespan of eight hundred years, the Nascent Soul has a lifespan of fifteen hundred years, and the monks who transform into gods have a lifespan of three thousand years, so you can just sit and watch. The world is full of vicissitudes of life.
In just three hundred years, he has traveled across three realms from the realm of Zifu to attain the cultivation of god transformation. Even among the True Dragon clan, he can be called a genius.
But, is three hundred years really not too slow?
Looking at the three realms, people of the same generation have already attained the Tao and Fruition and entered the realm to cultivate their emptiness.
Transforming into gods and refining the void are not only the difference between the third realm of the middle three realms and the first realm of the upper three realms, but also the gap between immortals and mortals.
In the middle and lower six realms, no matter how talented or dazzling you are, they are still commonplace. If you don't enter the realm of refining the void, you won't reach the realm of immortality, and your life will eventually expire.
These are only superficial, there are deeper things that have not been shown to the world
Taking a sip of the fruit wine and feeling the sweetness of the fruit wine, Jiang Sheng said: "In the past, I called you Brother Ao, and you called me Brother Jiang."
"After that, I still call you Ao. Brother, you call me Daochang Jiang.”
“Today, you even left out my last name and just called me Zhenjun.”
As he said that, Jiang Sheng looked at Ao Ke: “ Brother Ao, what is the reason why your name for Pindao keeps changing?”
“Differences in status?”
"Brother Ao, whom I know, is not someone who cares about these things. His mind and spirit can reach the sky and hold the sun and the moon in his arms."
"Why is there such a desolate mood today?"< br>
Ao Ke sighed and smiled bitterly: "Once you were the true successor of Penglai, and I was the dragon son of the East China Sea. Our identities are naturally equal."
"But the Dragon Palace of the East China Sea was destroyed by Penglai. After being destroyed, how noble is my identity as the Dragon Son of the East China Sea?”
“Right now, you are the True Lord of Yuchen Lingyuan who is famous in the three realms and is not bound by the heavens, and I, He is just a small god from a certain sea in the East China Sea.”
"Brother Jiang, there has been a barrier between you and me. Haven't you noticed that you have gone too far beyond old friends like us?"
"The barrier between you and us The gap is like a chasm, we can no longer catch up with you."
Jiang Sheng fell into silence. He had indeed not seen his old friends for a long time.
The two fairies Xiang Yao and Xiang Yu from the Chu State, the old friends from the Lu and Wei States, the Cha family from the Qi State, Fairy Xu Xiao, Fairy Li Yan from the Tang State, and the Heavenly Master Su Yajun.< br>
And Southern Xinjiang
The old friends on Continent in the Eastern Region seemed to be getting further and further away from Jiang Sheng.
Even those people encountered in Luzhou in the Southern Territory seemed to have not heard news for a long time.
Not only these people, but even the true disciples in the holy places of various places who have interacted with me countless times, haven’t they heard very little news?
Is it because I am too aloof and ignores the news from the outside world, or am I no longer a fellow traveler?
Did you walk too fast and couldn’t see them?
Jiang Sheng thought about it and took another silent sip of the fruit stuffed wine.
Above the East China Sea, the building and boat seemed to be drifting aimlessly with the current. Unknowingly, it drifted into the depths of the East China Sea.
The sky is clearing up, and the hazy mist gradually rises from the sea, rising and rippling.
And in the deep sea, there seem to be some shadows swimming and growing, spreading upward.
Above the sea surface where the sea fog is rolling, the skylight is gradually mottled, and there is a faint rustling sound in the fog.
In the building boat, the mermaid dancers were still dancing and stretching to the music played by the musicians.
Singing and dancing, the soft jade is fragrant.
Jiang Sheng and Ao Ke sat opposite each other, letting the mermaid dancer stretch her body to show off her dancing skills, and letting the musician play all kinds of sweet and moving music, but the atmosphere was always somewhat silent.
Finally, Jiang Sheng drank a cup of fruit wine and looked at Ao Ke: "Brother Ao said, poor Taoists have their own reasons for wanting to come."
"But the so-called Taoist friends, Taoist lovers are traveling on the same path. They may go their separate ways for some reason, but in the end they will definitely end up together and meet again. ”
"Pindao has made many good friends over the years, and most of my old friends have never met each other. This is because Pindao is practicing for a long time, and also because those old friends are practicing in their own ways."
"This is how cultivation is, each has its own way The paths may be different, but when we meet again, we can still be honest and honest."
"Pindao has met his old friends in other places, and they have never treated Pindao differently because of their changes in status and status. ."
"The so-called acquaintances should be like this."
"I met Brother Ao again today. Brother Ao has a difference in cultivation and identity, and even his expressions are the same. So bleak, why can’t Brother Ao be honest with Pindao? ”
"Is it the fault of a poor man, or does Brother Ao have a guilty conscience?"
As soon as he said this, it was like thunder exploding, and there was silence on the building and ship. (End of this chapter)
