Too Reckless

Vol 14 Chapter 4: under-smoked peach

woohoo-

The waves crashed against the rocks, and a few seagulls were enjoying the summer evening under the coconut trees. The young birds, covered in black fluff, peeked out from behind the trees and looked curiously at the faces that were walking slowly.

Shangguan Yutang stood quietly on the stone cliff, facing the sea with his back to the breeze. The snow-blue skirt and hair were blown in front of him, and the silky fabric outlined a perfect waist and hip curve.

Shangguan Yutang has a solitary and cold temperament, but He Jingshen's figure is too soft. Standing on the beach without a smile, just looking at the back, she looks like a daze alone.

Zuo Lingquan walked through the forest path unhurriedly, trying his best to maintain a calm expression, but when he saw the back of the ancestor, his footsteps slowed down involuntarily, and when he walked outside the stone cliff, he straightened his clothes slightly:

"Well... Senior Shangguan..."

"I'll give you dignity, let's do it yourself."

"...?"

Zuo Lingquan opened his mouth, a little dazed, looked left and right and said:

"What do seniors ask me to do?"

Shangguan Yutang turned around on the stone cliff, his face still indifferent to the common people, looking down at Zuo Lingquan:

"You forgot what the deity said when he was in Zuo's house?"

Zuo Lingquan recalled: "Uh... If you find out that I'm thinking nonsense again, you will kill me..."

"Do you think this deity is joking?" Shangguan Yutang's eyes were cold, with a determination to kill his relatives.

Zuo Lingquan's heart was stunned, his eyes showed a bit of innocence, and he explained seriously:

"Senior, don't get me wrong, I'm not thinking about it. Hmm... I didn't know the details of the osmanthus tree just now. Qiu Tao was pulling it to look at it, and I didn't know what I was looking at..."

Shangguan Yutang's face was sinking like water: "This tree can help people see the dirty thoughts in their hearts. Do you explain the meaning now?"

Zuo Lingquan shook his head quickly: "How can it be called dirty. This tree can help people see into their hearts. I have seniors in my heart, is there any problem?"

"no problem?"

"Yeah, seniors are so kind to me as a mountain. If I don't have seniors in my heart, I'll be a wolf-hearted dog. Didn't I say before that between people, there is not only love, but also family and friendship. I don't know this tree. If you see people around you, you will naturally associate with people you haven't seen, and then you will see seniors..."

"…"

This explanation, theoretically speaking, is really not too wrong.

After all, Zuo Lingquan didn't know beforehand that this tree was for his sweetheart, and he could barely make sense if something went wrong.

"You mean, what you see are the people you cherish around you?"

Zuo Lingquan nodded sincerely: "That's right."

"Then have you seen your father and mother?"

"…"

Zuo Lingquan blinked and said seriously:

"There are a lot of people I cherish. Ling Ye and the others are all there. Before I could see my parents, I was interrupted by the seniors... If the seniors didn't interrupt, I would definitely wonder why my parents were not there, and then I would see... "

After Shangguan Yutang looked at Zuo Lingquan for a long time, his expression gradually softened, and he said calmly:

"You can take care of the people around you in the future. You don't have to take this deity to heart. This deity can erase some of your memories at any time, but I don't want to do that. I hope you can do it yourself, and don't make me a mother-in-law."

When Zuo Lingquan heard his mother-in-law, he inevitably thought of the scene where his tongue was bitten, and felt very strange in his heart. But this weirdness is definitely not dare to show, can only smile and divert the topic:

"Then what... can you get useful information from Xuan Ye?"

Shangguan Yutang has already seen through the world, and knows everything well, but some things can't be held, so she didn't talk in detail.

"Ask something..."

Shangguan Yutang used a Jingshen body. Jingshen was not tall. He just stood on the stone cliff to speak, but also to be more oppressive.

At this moment, after losing his temper, he jumped down, and he was half a head shorter than Zuo Lingquan in an instant.

But Zuo Lingquan finally flicked the past, but he didn't dare to laugh, and he honestly followed behind and listened carefully.

"Xuan Ye's stance is not firm. The head of the alien race has seen it long ago, and he didn't tell him important information; but with his Taoism, he has seen some clues over the years."

Shangguan Yutang looked to the west of the sea:

"According to Xuan Ye, the area of ​​Cangsha Ancient River in Kuibingzhou has always been listed as a forbidden area, and even Xun Mingzhang has kept it a secret; Cangsha Ancient River is rumored to be the 'Longxing Land' of an immortal emperor in ancient times. The Immortal Emperor did not ascend, and disappeared after the battle with the extraterrestrial demons..."

Hearing this, Zuo Lingquan asked curiously, "Could it be that the Immortal Emperor still exists in the world?"

Shangguan Yutang shook his head: "No. Immortal Emperor is Jiugai Realm, which means to unite Jiuzhou and monopolize the luck of heaven and earth; at this realm, the spiritual energy of Jiuzhou can no longer be supplied to monks for cultivation, and the only way out is to fly out of the sky and force it. Staying will deplete the lifespan; therefore, every immortal emperor in ancient times will not be in charge of the world for more than a thousand years, which is shorter than the time I have been in charge of the Nine Sects."

Zuo Lingquan nodded in understanding but asked again:

"Those immortal emperors have gone out, can't they come back?"

"When you step on the cultivation path, you are no longer a human being; it should be the same when you fly into the sky. The existence of immortality and immortality, looking at our reincarnations, should be similar to how we look at mortals, old, sick and dead. Even if we are destroyed by extraterrestrial demons, in their eyes I will be reborn in another world in the next moment, and if I don’t come back, it may be because I don’t want to interfere with the reincarnation of the heavenly realm with selfishness…”

Shangguan Yutang is in the Five Elements and the Three Realms, and he has never been outside. He is just guessing about these things.

"The plan of the alien race in the ancient Cangsha River must be inseparable from the opening of the Longevity Dao; since you have learned the news, you must know the general situation in order to prepare in advance. You have already arrived here, so let's drop by."

Zuo Lingquan knew that this trip was quite risky, but he had no intention of rejecting it. After all, if he didn't do it, he couldn't let the ancestors go there in person. He just asked:

"I won't bring Xuan Ye with me? I can't trust a snake..."

"No, this deity has already informed Huang Yuhe, and asked him to come and pick up Xuan Ye and **** him back to Dongzhou for custody. The deity will keep in touch with you at any time, and you don't have to worry about its tricks and lies behind its back."

Zuo Lingquan nodded slightly: "Should I go alone?"

"Going to Kui Bingzhou's deity has to be weighed, it's not a child's play, the old witch can't protect you at all, and bringing too many people around is harmful and useless... You and Ling Ye and the others should act separately. It's bright and dark, if something happens to Ling Ye, you Make a move and sacrifice yourself to cover her evacuation, as for you..."

Having said this, Shangguan Yutang turned around, raised his cheeks to look at the handsome man in front of him, and returned the green sheathed sword around his waist to his hand:

"The deity always has a day to escape into reincarnation. I hope that before this day comes, I can see your true independent side. Don't let me down."

The words are very deep, like Tuogu.

Zuo Lingquan took the green sheathed sword and panicked:

"Don't talk about these unlucky things, um... How long does the senior live? I feel a little flustered when I hear this."

Shangguan Yutang calculated it carefully and sighed softly:

"Seven thousand years, but no one in the realm of the deity died of old age, and most of them won't live to the end of their lives."

"Seven...seven...?"

Zuo Lingquan looked stunned and was a little speechless.

The lifespan is determined by the life and soul. Zuo Lingquan's Taoism in the early stage of the secluded spirit has just begun to refine his soul, and the lifespan is not much different from that of Lao Lu at the peak of Youhuang; Lao Lu is a bad old man at three or four hundred years old. If he stops Not before, it is estimated that it is similar.

According to the analogy of mortal life expectancy, the ancestor is only in his early twenties, which is the age of pink, tender and tight. He said that his life is not long in the spring and sad autumn. Zuo Lingquan felt that he and the rich woman looked at the wallet and said, 'Oh, just There are hundreds of millions left, how can I live this day! ' Almost, there is really no empathy.

When Shangguan Yutang saw Zuo Lingquan's expression, he also felt that his words were a little floating, and he put on a solemn look again, and said seriously:

"Only you know this matter, don't tell outsiders. People in power are seen as deep and shallow, and people below are prone to rebellion; even if they don't dare to rebel, Cui Yingying finds out, and has a lump in her heart, for fear that she will die in front of the deity..."

Zuo Lingquan really didn't want to talk about life and death matters, so he changed the subject and said:

"Who is the oldest person in the world?"

"It should be Mei Jinshui. She is the envoy of Qinglong, the master of Qinglong grows, and it is not surprising that she can live the same life as heaven and earth, but I don't know how old she is; Shang Yin is not too young, and there is also a demon clan. That nine-tailed fox…”

"Nine-tailed fox?"

"?" Shangguan Yutang narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Uh... just curious..."

"You'd better restrain your filthy thoughts, the real nine-tailed fox doesn't have tails on women..."

The ancestor of Shangguan remembered Jiang Yi's fox tail and said it smoothly, his expression rarely stiffened.

Zuo Lingquan coughed lightly and made a simple appearance that he didn't understand:

"Those are all nonsense from Mr. Storyteller. I've seen the portraits of fox demons, and they all have terrifying fangs and claws..."

"It's not too scary, Yaozu and Langhao are actually similar in appearance, but they are dozens of times larger and have eight more tails..."

"Nine-tailed Samoyed?!"

"Um?"

------

Lone Leaf Island is a hidden world sect. It does not interfere with world affairs. It is impolite to rashly keep the prisoners on the island, even if they do not make Lone Leaf Island annoyed.

Xuan Ye, who was tied back for this reason, was chained under the reef on the edge of the island by the ancestors using the phoenix fire as a prison.

Miss Qiu originally wanted to guard by the side, but the Valkyrie was chatting with Zuo Lingquan nearby. She was not good at listening, so she quietly retired and wandered on the island.

The monks on the island can live in seclusion overseas, and their personalities are relatively withdrawn. Miss Qiu did not take the initiative to speak up when she saw no one to greet her. She walked along the forest path, thinking about Valkyrie's analysis just now.

The Valkyrie had just finished interrogating Xuan Ye, and told her the allusion of the 'Cangsha Ancient River', which meant that she was going to send someone to investigate.

Miss Qiu wants to ask for her life, but she is a member of the old sword **** and sun god, and she is not a monk under the Valkyrie, so it's not easy to say this.

If Zuo Lingquan and the others went over, she would have to ask the elders for instructions, and as long as the elders had no problem with their minds, they would not agree to such a reckless idea. It was a bit of a headache to think about it.

After walking alone for a while, Miss Qiu gradually came to the center of the island, and a whispered conversation entered her ears:

"You know and I know about this, but don't dare to tell Sister Lingye..."

"grumble."

"If Young Master Zuo limps back later, please comfort him, we can't gloat at misfortune..."

"grumble?"

Miss Qiu was a little puzzled, and came to the vicinity to take a look, but saw Xie Qiutao standing on the stone bridge with her arms folded, her brows furrowed and she taught seriously.

The dumplings rolled around on the stone bridge railing, looking so bored.

"Autumn peach."

Miss Qiu restrained her thoughts, came to the front slowly, and asked:

"What are you talking to Tuanzi? Is there anything you can't tell Shangguan Lingye?"

"…"

Xie Qiutao's expression froze, how could she dare to reveal such a big shocking gossip, she said with a smile:

"It's nothing, it's just the matter of Senior Sister Chou and Zuo Gongzi going out alone for one night. I'm afraid that the group will talk nonsense and make Sister Ling Ye think wrong."

"grumble?"

Miss Qiu couldn't understand what Tuantuan meant, so naturally she didn't notice anything unusual, she shook her head when she heard the words:

"I'm with Zuo Jianxian to fight demons. What can't be known to Shangguan Lingye? If she can overturn the vinegar jar for this, it can only be said that the more she lives, the more she goes back."

"Ha ha…"

Xie Qiutao smiled sweetly. Although she just got into a big disaster, she still couldn't hold back her heart to die. She glanced at the old osmanthus and started again:

"By the way, Senior Sister Qiu, this tree is quite interesting, why don't you come and have a look?"

Miss Qiu was unprepared, and came directly to the old osmanthus tree and looked up:

"It's beautiful, is there anything special about it?"

"Look carefully."

"…"

Miss Qiu frowned slightly and carefully looked at the big tree in front of her. There was nothing unusual in front of her, but an inexplicable feeling emerged in her heart:

Don't bully the poor girl...

Why can't I compare to Shangguan Lingye...

Why did she find such a good husband...

A mess of distracting thoughts lingered in my mind, as if something very special was caught in it, but I couldn't hold it.

But to see these things clearly, the tree seems to be guiding her, go west, and the answer is there.

West...

Miss Qiu turned her head to look west, her eyes puzzled.

Xie Qiutao thief stood behind, waited for a long time, and asked:

"Senior Sister Qiu, who did you see?"

"What see who?"

"It's just people, um... impressive people..."

Miss Qiu didn't know why, she shook her head and smiled:

"I think of Shangguan Lingye, what does this tree do?"

"What (squeak)?!"

Xie Qiutao was struck by lightning, and felt that this sentence was even more powerful than Zuo Lingquan's.

After all, Zuo Lingquan can still count as opposite-sex attraction, what is this?

The dumplings were also full of incredulousness, and they were probably thinking: Nanny and Nanny are sleeping together, where is Quanquan sleeping...

Miss Qiu noticed that Xie Qiutao looked strange and frowned:

"Qiu Tao?"

"Oh..." Xie Qiutao looked strange, and even subconsciously moved away from Miss Qiu, hooked the hair hanging down from her ear:

"Well... This osmanthus tree is used by the monks on the island to see their sweethearts, so what..."

Miss Qiu's face darkened.

Then Miss Qiu flipped her wrist lightly, took out a ruler for teaching disciples, and patted Xie Qiutao's buttocks.

clap clap —

"Ah! Senior Sister Qiu, I was wrong, I was joking, this tree is not allowed at all... Ah, I was wrong, I was wrong..."

Under the setting sun, the tall and slender fairy in white clothes like snow, holding a ring ruler, fiercely chased and beat the round-faced little girl.

The fluffy white dumplings trotted after schadenfreude and cheered with 'jijiji', but in a short while, the two disappeared between the tree-lined paths...

------

Bosuozhou, the city of frost and flowers.

In the city, construction and construction were carried out to reconstruct various formations, smoke and dust were everywhere, and sometimes people from the right path came from the east, and there were no shortage of monks patrolling in the wilderness.

Next to the Linhai Port, there is a mountain ridge with a seven-story Guanlan Building, which is the lighthouse of the Frost Flower City Port and where the mother formation of the Alien Sky Escape Tower is located.

At dusk, Wu Qingwan and Jiang Yi stood side by side by the fence outside the Guanlan Building.

Jiang Yi and Xiao Lengzhu looked at the endless sea with a bit of worry in their eyes. Although they didn't say it clearly, they were definitely worried about the safety of Zuo Lingquan and others.

Wu Qingwan was also worried, but she didn't want Jiang Yi to look anxious, so instead of looking at the sea, she set her sights on the seven-story building behind her.

The Tiandun Pagoda is expensive to build, and its technical conditions are also very high. It is considered a strategic material.

When the two sects are at war, as long as the other side is occupied or destroyed by the Tiandun Tower, it can basically declare the end of the war; because there is no contact with the Tiandun Tower, the cultivators in the sect cannot ask for help, and the outside disciples are smeared, and they dare not come back at all.

The same is true for the war between the righteous and the evil. After the Frost Flower City is taken down, the first thing to do is to crack the mother formation of the Tiandun Pagoda and replace it with the formation of the righteous path, so that the eyes of the alien race can be pulled out and at the same time, it can establish contact with Wangchuan City.

The Tiandun Pagoda is one of the masterpieces of the art of refining, and each of them has been created by everyone. It was only knocked down yesterday. It is not so easy to crack it in a short time. to the ultimate array.

And the high-level cultivators who need to contact the sect can only wait under the tower at this time when there is no signal, and help make plans so that the communication can be restored as soon as possible.

Cui Yingying stood below and said from time to time:

"Little Lu, do you see the seven dots under the eaves? They represent the seven stars of Betelgeuse. You can deduce from the constellation map to see if you can find the magic door..."

Shangguan Lingye is not an artifact refiner, so he does not dare to give pointers on these things. Seeing that Cui Yingying volunteered to give instructions, but it didn't work for a long time, he reminded in a low voice:

"Senior Peach Blossom, you are a doctor. If you are not sure, don't interfere with the work of the formation master..."

"Ling Ye, I am about the same age as your master. I have already studied these things thoroughly, but I just need to spend some time trying them out. I must know more than them..."

Wu Qingwan watched from a distance, shook her head secretly, and agreed with Ling Ye's statement that everyone has their own strengths, and the art of refining is not much simpler than martial arts and kendo. , It is difficult for those who are fine.

No matter how powerful an ordinary cultivator is, they are only perfect in refining techniques, but a real refining master requires 'inferring other things from one case'. They can use the knowledge they have learned to create things that did not exist before, and be ingenious; the layman directs the expert, and it is easy to interfere with the refining process. The trainer's thinking.

Wu Qingwan is also a half-baked craftsman. When she was a child, she often discussed with her second uncle, and remembered a truth - the magic tools and arrays in the world exist between heaven and earth, and there are traces to follow; all people have to do is to excavate, It's not an invention, so you can't just copy the ideas of predecessors, you have to explore and adapt yourself.

To put it simply, it is to learn and apply it, and not stick to the dogma.

Wu Qingwan was watching from below. In fact, she could see a little bit of doorway, but the refiners at the Immortal Venerable level did not dare to mess around. Sister Yingying was trained by Ling Ye when she spoke. Naturally, she did not dare to speak indiscriminately. The fairy long trial and error.

After watching it for a while, I don't know if the refiner accidentally touched the tower formation method, or something else. The plaque on the top floor of Guanlan Building suddenly flashed a stream of light.

The craftsmen on the periphery of the high-rise responded very quickly. The cultivator Lu, who was headed by him, raised his hand and waved his sleeves.

"Who touched the organ?"

The craftsmen inside and outside the high-rise buildings responded innocently:

"I didn't mess around with..."

"Yeah, it's all in accordance with the rules, the array on the top of the tower seems to be activated by itself..."

"What a joke, how can no one touch the array map to stimulate itself?"

Hearing the movement, Jiang Yi turned around and asked curiously:

"Auntie, what's wrong?"

Wu Qingwan didn't know what to do, looked at the broken plaque, and whispered:

"That plaque should be an object similar to the moon in the water. It can monitor the movement of the entire Frost Flower City from a long distance. It was stimulated just now. It is possible for aliens to judge the deployment of combat power in Frost Flower City through this."

"Oh...why are you so careless?"

"The time is very short, it is so, and I can't see anything..."

----

On the other side of the sky, in a harbor.

The nine-storey tower shone faintly under the sky.

In the star-gazing platform at the top of the tower, eight water curtains are suspended according to their orientation.

Lei Hongliang stood in the center, looked at the frozen picture on the water curtain, and said:

"I've said it all, the righteous path refiner is not stupid, how can you be stalked thousands of miles away... There are quite a lot of people, this mustache and scolding, seems to be Lu Zhixing from Tiandi City, I have seen it once before, and he is the best at it. What is unique, is to create 'thousands of machine tools'.

"It is rumored that this bed can allow men and women to operate seven, seven and forty-nine dual-cultivation methods without moving on their own. It is very powerful, but it is too damaging to the essence, and it is nicknamed 'dregs bed', 'juicer' 'fairy "Happy Bed', the stubborn man on the mountain went in and the soft-footed loach came out. It is said that the Emperor Di Zhao didn't resist for a round, and he almost expelled Lu Zhixing from his teacher's door afterward..."

This person is Lei Hongliang's sect master. Although Lei Hongliang has long since been expelled from his sect, he is still very familiar with the secret skills of these refiners.

It's a pity that Lei Hongliang talked to himself for a long time, but there was no response from the side. He turned to look at Wu Zunyi and asked:

"Respect?"

Wu Zunyi looked at the hundreds of men and women below the tower. After a moment of silence, he raised his hand and swept away the screen in the water curtain, and said plainly:

"What is a thousand machine tools, it's just a trick to dig insects."

"Oh? Can you still build a '10,000 machine tool'? You have the ability, but no one dares to use it. Even the old demons may not be able to bear it."

"That's not necessarily true. Go and say hello to the old demon Shang, saying that I want to make him a big guy, and ask him if he dares to let go of his hands and feet and let me toss."

"Old Demon Shang wants you to build something to clean him up, because he is afraid you won't move, so I'll go say hello; after the construction of the Star Observatory, I'm worried that I have nothing to do, so let's let Old Demon Shang open his eyes this time, see Our 'Double Saint Hands of Dongzhou' are amazing!"

"…"

Wu Zunyi hesitated, nodding his head...
