Kyushu, the former territory of Zheng State, in the outskirts of Qinghe County, a few children who looked no more than four or five years old were digging up the soil inch by inch in the deserted fields, trying to dig out something that could fill their stomachs .
"Children." The woman came over and waved at these children, "Do you want to eat candy?"
After she finished speaking, these shabby-dressed children were timid and did not dare to come forward. When they heard the word eating candy, their expressions were still a little timid, but they couldn't help but ran to the place. In front of the woman, the woman lowered her head and found that these children were all barefoot, without even shoes.
She tried her best to soften the expression on her face, softened her voice and asked these children: "I'll ask you a few questions, and after you answer them, I'll give you these candies, okay?"
As she spoke, she waved her hand weakly, took out a small kit from the storage bag, unwrapped the knot, and there were five or six pieces of caramel in it. The little devils swallowed their saliva immediately, and the bolder ones took a step forward. Periodically, Ai Ai looked at the neatly dressed woman in front of her: "Sister, if you have any questions, we will tell you when we know."
As long as you give us the sugar.
"Do you know which country is the garrison in the city now?"
"It's from Chu State!" A child replied first. When the woman heard this, she had a smile on her face, and she continued to ask with this smile: "After the Chu State garrisoned troops, do you know who is the Taoist leader who will accompany you?" group?"
After asking this question, the children all looked at each other in blank dismay. At this time, the woman also felt that the question asked was too difficult for the children, so she sighed. At this time, the girl who seemed to be the oldest among the children said cautiously : "When the Chu army called, I heard someone shouting 'Tiandaolou'."
When she said this, a smile appeared on the woman's face. She seemed to be thinking about the chaos of war, and she didn't pay attention to the candy. She divided the candy equally among the children, and walked towards the city. go.
The gate of the city was strictly guarded by the garrison, and the woman had a token engraved with "Heaven" in her hand. With this token, she could go all the way to the city lord's mansion, and the leader of the garrison also respected her when she saw her.
The leader was twenty-two years old, a majestic and mighty man named Liang Zhuo. When he saw this girl who looked like she was only in her twenties, he first greeted her with a few polite words and revealed their names and identities to each other. The girl's name was Chao. Wu is exactly a disciple of Tiandaolou.
After Liang Zhuo was polite, he tried to ask her: "The Immortal Elder is here, but what is the important thing?"
"Don't be so polite to me, my great-grandfather is Liang Feng." Zhao Wu smiled, "Is the immortal chief Xie Jinzhou Xie who accompanied you on the march?"
When she said that her great-grandfather was Liang Feng, Liang Zhuo knew that this girl belonged to his family. Immediately, he felt a little closer, so he told Chaowu that Xie Xianchang took the disciples of Tiandaolou to inspect the border of the station.
When Chao Wu heard this, she pondered for a while, and knew that Xie Jinzhou was going to set up an formation. After thinking about it, she wanted to learn from the past, and was about to do so when she suddenly heard the sound of drums, and Liang Zhuo His expression changed, and at this moment he saw smoke rising from the city wall again, Liang Zhuo was in a hurry, at this time the other side also had an accompanying immortal master.
Chaowu also knew how to recognize the orders in the army, she was taken aback, Liang Zhuo didn't care about 21, and said to Chaowu: "Miss Chaowu! Thankfully you are here! Come with me to the city wall to defend against the enemy! "
Zhao Wu opened his eyes wide, but before he could react, he waited for someone to stand on the city wall. Below were dense soldiers holding weapons, and a few "immortal elders" who looked "evil and crooked" looked up.
"I have no experience in defending against the enemy." Zhao Wu said loudly, but there was already a fight below, Liang Zhuo was in command, and there was a lot of noise in his ears, he didn't hear what Zhao Wu said at all.
Seeing that a few evil spirits above the head had already formed a formation, and seeing something about to fall, Liang Zhuo shouted at Chaowu: "Miss Chaowu! It's up to you! Is there any enchantment or barrier? Hurry up and block it!"
A drop of sweat emerged from Chao Wu's forehead, she reached into the storage bag, first raised it, and a handful of thin pointed objects like shuttles flew towards the people in the air, and they didn't hide, Chao Wu only heard Jie Jie's strange laughter, and saw that his magic weapon rushed over and those people turned into black smoke, Chao Wu's heart tightened, and he was shocked: "Demon Race!"
The black mist is like a deep pool of water. Once the magic weapon enters it, it will be devoured no longer. A few clouds of black mist have dispersed and gathered, and they have already rushed towards Chaowu. .
And the black mist had already arrived in front of her in a blink of an eye, and it was about to engulf her. A fan lay between the girl and the black mist. The owner of the fan turned his thin wrist, and the fan came out. When it reaches people's ears, there is a burst of trance—I feel desolate, and the joy in this world is gone.
"Master!" Chaowu shouted excitedly.
Xie Jinzhou turned his head and glanced at her, feeling a little toothache: "What are you yelling?"
Seeing that there were several things missing at Chaowu's feet, they were all too impatient when they just turned over the storage bag, so they pointed at Chaowu's feet, bowed their heads, and quickly bent down to pick them up. They just picked up a jade talisman , Xie Jinzhou suddenly stood in front of Chao Wu, dark clouds suddenly gathered in the sky, and something came from afar!
And the black mist that had just been slapped by Xie Jinzhou suddenly screamed. If the scream that just hit the ear made people feel desolate, then this time it made people have a splitting headache. This scream is against us Regardless, both the enemy and us stopped fighting below, and they all clutched their heads and turned dizzy.
Xie Jinzhou's eyebrows were already tightly frowned, and he said, "It's really strange, what wind brought him here?"
Zhao Wu was holding the hand of the jade talisman and was about to put the jade talisman into the storage bag. Hearing this, he asked Xie Jinzhou curiously: "Who? Who brought it here?"
As soon as the words were finished, dragons chanted everywhere, opened their eyes wide towards the fog, and then quickly backed away. The black dragon was flying all the way, covered in lightning, surrounded by black fog, and came straight towards the city wall. The black mist of the demons turned into human figures one after another, kneeling on the ground in the air and shouting "Demon Venerable".
Xie Jinzhou shook his sleeves and held a fan. As the saying goes, you don’t hit a smiling face with your hands. As soon as he grinned, he saw the black dragon attacking with a flick of his tail. With one blow, they were beaten to pieces, and this time they couldn't get together at all.
Xie Jinzhou raised his eyebrows. It was rumored that the real dragon Demon Lord that Hua Qianhuan had retrieved had a bad temper. With the reincarnation of the demon dragon Ao Chi, Chu Heng, who has re-entered the demonic way, is the "head of all demons".
Xie Jinzhou was not nervous either, relying on the fact that he and Chu Heng were two points stronger in the past, he opened his mouth and said in a loud voice: "Farewell for a hundred years, brother Chu has not seen for a long time—"
But he wanted to talk to him, but he didn't want to have such hypocrisy with him. Xie Jinzhou saw that Chu Heng's speed hadn't slowed down, and his momentum was heading straight towards the morning mist behind him. Now he finally closed his eyes. mouth, holding a fan and drinking: "Chu Heng, what are you going to do!"
From the beginning to the end, the black giant dragon seemed to be surrounded by nothing, and the only thing in its eyes was the girl Chaowu. Chaowu was so frightened that she retreated to the city wall, and looked up at the black dragon's eyes. Suddenly, a strange idea popped up from the bottom of my heart.
Inexplicably, I actually felt that the black dragon seemed a little pitiful.
Xie Jinzhou has already met Chu Heng, and is about to make a big fight, but who knows that Chu Heng is about to collide with him, and unexpectedly bypasses Xie Jinzhou with a very flexible body. Fog, never waste time on others.
Xie Jinzhou jumped into the air, turned around and jumped on the black dragon. Chu Heng seemed to have eyes on his body, and the dragon's body without looking back swung around. It was thrown out with a "bass", and Xie Jinzhou's roar came from the air: "Chu Heng——!"
Chao Wu over there also shouted: "Master! Help!"
But at this moment, the soldiers on both sides of the city, who had been slowed down by God, looked up in amazement.
Chaowu was caught in the claws of the black dragon, and he could only look down through the cracks in the claws along the way. The black dragon flew extremely fast, and only an afterimage could be seen in the scenery below. Sitting in the claws of the dragon, Chaowu felt anxious. Anxiety, the wind whispered in her ears, and the wind blowing through the dragon's claws made her hair disheveled.
"Where are you taking me?" Zhao Wu endured her fear and asked Hei Long loudly, but Hei Long ignored her, so Zhao Wu bravely asked, "Why did you arrest me?"
"I have no grievances or enmities with you!"
"Can you let me go? Tiandaolou is more powerful than you imagined!"
But no matter how much Zhao Wu yelled, the black dragon ignored her. After shouting for a long time, Chao Wu also gave up on asking questions. There are too many mistakes, just like ants and people, she can't even run out of the dragon's claws.
Thinking desperately like this, the girl is also big-hearted. After a while, she fell asleep. The shiny things almost blinded my eyes.
The flying speed of the black dragon slowed down a lot. Looking carefully towards the fog, most of the glittering things are corals as tall as a person. There are various ornaments made of oriental beads and gold hanging on the corals. These things are covered by the cave wall. The light from the luminous pearl inlaid on the top reflects the bright light, which immediately reflects the richness and honor in the cave.
But within a few breaths, the sparkling things disappeared, and the light in the cave went dark again, only the light of the Ye Mingzhu was faintly bright, especially after the morning fog was put down, there were statues of a person all around, and all kinds of people. With the scattered paintings hanging, against the gloomy light, I feel chills all over my body, as if I have been trapped by some ghost.
After she was put down, the black dragon's body was much smaller than when he first saw her. Her waist was brushed by the dragon's tail. Before Zhao Wu could react, the storage bag at her waist was taken away by the black dragon. Zhao Wu was in a hurry: " what are you up to?!"
As soon as she finished yelling, she saw the black dragon land two or three feet in front of her. As soon as it landed, Chao Wu rubbed her eyes. There was no black dragon in front of her, only a man in plain clothes was standing there .
The man lowered his head, but the hair tied with a headband hangs down, blocking his face, and he can't see clearly in the fog, but it seems that the black dragon has turned into a human form. She also lost a little fear and walked forward boldly. After taking two steps, the man had already taken out a jade talisman from the storage bag.
"You..." Chao Wu opened his mouth. Just as he spoke, the person on the opposite side lowered his head and stroked the jade talisman, and also spoke. The voice was as indifferent as a handful of snow in winter, without any temperature at all. He asked Chao Wu Wu: "Where did you get this jade talisman?"
At this moment, the man raised his face and looked towards Chaowu.
Zhao Wu met his face and was stunned. What kind of man is this? He is clearly a boy who does not look more than seventeen or eighteen years old. His face is not as sharp and angular as that of an adult man. with the teenager.
What made Chaogiri even more distracted was that the young man's brows were perfectly formed. Although those eyebrows and eyes were full of dark eyes that seemed to have passed through the years, it couldn't stop him from having a handsome, almost beautiful face. .
"Where did this jade talisman come from?" Chaowu was in a daze, Chu Heng touched the jade talisman with his fingertips, felt the familiar aura in the jade talisman, his eyes clearly showed a trace of tenderness, but he asked Chaowu's tone aloud It was already cold with a bit of evil spirit.
Chao Wu trembled, and silently took a few steps back before returning to Chu Heng: "This is passed down from my great-grandmother, and it is what was left behind by the person my great-grandmother served before she left."
"Who is your great-grandmother?" A name came to Chu Heng's mind.
Chaowu replied honestly: "My great-grandmother's name is Wang Chunniang, but her real name is Chaowu."
After a pause, Chaowu said again: "My great-grandfather's branch, as long as a girl is born, there will be a person who will inherit the name of Chaowu. It is said that the great-grandmother was afraid that she would not be alive when the owner of the jade talisman wanted to find her. There are rules like this."
"Your great-grandfather is Liang Feng." After hearing this, Chu Heng understood Chao Wu's identity in his heart, and he was the descendant of the maid who was next to Xu Nian and the officer of Chu State.
His eyes dimmed, and he turned into a black dragon while holding the jade talisman. He circled to the table at the end of the cave and then fell. He seemed a little sleepy, and yawned. The jade talisman was pressed under his belly, and the dragon's head and tail formed a circle , with his head resting on his tail...and fell asleep.
Chao Wu saw the man and turned into a dragon again, and stood there tremblingly for a long time before he tentatively asked, "You...can you let me go?"
She asked in a very low voice, but Heilong ignored her, as if she didn't hear it, Zhao Wu raised her voice a little bit, but after several rounds, no one responded to her, she turned around and ran away, who knew that she came to the "wealthy and overpowering" place in her eyes. For a while, there was an enchantment blocking the way.
Chao Wu had no choice but to go back the same way, the black dragon was sleeping, she walked over to pick up the storage bag dropped by the black dragon, don't go back to her waist, the whole person was doing nothing, seeing that the black dragon really didn't care about her, she turned around the cave.
This cave should be in a big mountain, and the ground is flat. I don’t know if it was leveled by the black dragon himself. The surrounding mountain walls are also dry. Although the whole cave is not exposed to the sun, it is ventilated. The whole cave looks like a small square.
When Zhao Wu first came in, he was taken aback by dozens of statues. Now that he was free, he went to look at the stone statues of various colors standing in the cave. After looking at them one by one, he realized that they were all one person.
It was a boy who looked to be only about 15 years old. Looking carefully at the mist, he thought to himself, the person who made this statue is either a very skilled sculptor, or...he has a very deep relationship with this young boy.
It's just a statue, but the young boy's delicate facial features are clearly visible, not only his facial features, but also his clothes, hair, and tied headbands are all handled with great detail.
In the cave, the statue of the boy counted towards the fog. Some of the boy was standing, some were posing with a sword, and some were sitting there with a smile on their face. Next, exactly seven or nine and 63 seats.
At the same time, she also saw that there were paintings next to each other on the mountain wall, those paintings were reflected by the light of the night pearl, and the paintings inside were all of this young man.Just like the stone statue, some of the teenagers in the painting are standing and looking into the distance, some are leaning against the window with a smile on their faces, and some are sitting under the eaves with wind chimes, quietly looking ahead.
This painting is several times more than that of the stone statue. Some of them are just a turning and a back view, or a single painting. Chaowu counted it this time, but he couldn't count how many.
She was bored with counting, and finally sat in an open space, meditating cross-legged. When she opened her eyes, she first felt a wave of demon energy, and then she was so frightened that she hid back in front of a stone statue. Someone entered the cave, so she poked her head out. Seeing a person with long hair hanging loose in a black robe, he probably saw her but ignored her and walked straight to the black dragon.
The man clasped his hands and shouted: "Demon Venerable."
Heilong raised his head, and cast a cold glance at this person. Zhao Wu was quite far away from the two of them, and they both sensed an undisguised killing intent.
Zhao Wu didn't understand the rest of the words, but saw that the man's face and mouth had collapsed into a line, and he left in a very unhappy manner. When he left, he saw the black dragon turned into a boy again, sitting in front of the desk The pen seems to be drawing something.
Zhao Wu hesitated whether he should go forward or not, when he heard the boy's gentle voice: "Little girl, come here, I have something to ask you."
She was really startled by the voice, she didn't realize who was talking for a while, but when she realized it, she stepped forward cautiously, Chu Heng looked up at her, the expression on her face was no longer the indifference or sternness before, but It is as gentle and polite as a "gentleman's rules".
The expression on this face was quite familiar to Zhao Wu, quite similar to Xie Jinzhou. She boldly stepped forward, stood still in front of Chu Heng, and swallowed: "What do you want to ask me?"
She thought in her heart, if the demon king asked about Tiandaolou, what should she say? The Kyushu Continent is now standing on two legs. , In addition, the righteous way of the comprehension world is constantly eliminating demons in Kyushu, and there are monster races fishing in troubled waters.
But as soon as Chu Heng opened his mouth, he asked: "Since your great-grandmother has established that each generation will have a girl inherit the name Chaowu, has she ever told the past about the person she was waiting for?"
Zhao Wu hesitated for a moment, Xu Guo had been destroyed for more than a hundred years, and how could those cultivators care about common things in the world, so he answered honestly: "The person my grandmother served was actually Prince Nian of the Xu State who had already perished. When she was old, she was already a little confused, but sometimes she would pull people to talk about her past in King Xu's palace."
As soon as she said this, Chu Heng's eyes lit up, and his originally gentle eyebrows instantly revealed a burst of joy, but after the joy disappeared for a few breaths, Zhao Wu saw that there was a bit of distress between his eyebrows.
Zhao Wu only felt that his eyes were dazzled, and sure enough, the next moment, he saw Chu Heng lowered his brows and eyes, still in a gentle manner, but when he spoke, his voice still showed a little bit of elusive sadness: "Then do you remember your grandmother?" Did you mention the past about Prince Nian? If you remember... can you tell me a few words?"
Zhao Wu was completely stunned, the black dragon's evil spirit was completely gone, and in front of her was just a young man with a sad and sad expression.
"I don't remember very clearly, so I can only pick some and remember to talk about it." Zhao Wu's expression was complicated, and he felt a little pity for the boy in his heart, as if he had forgotten that the real boy in front of him was the leader of all demons Demon Lord of the Black Dragon.
In the cave, the girl's voice was thin, talking about the past of the old grandmother who did not know how many years ago, the flowers that bloomed in the royal palace, the children who were spoiled... those things that seemed to have never existed because no one remembered them. People and things slowly passed through time again, echoing in the cave with the girl's voice.
I don't know how many days later, Zhao Wu only felt that her tongue seemed to be worn out. She should have been asked to repeat those vague past events so many times, but after these few days of getting along, she became more courageous. After getting up, I finally couldn't help but ask Chu Heng fawningly today: "I'm useless, can you let me go?"
Chu Heng lowered his head, a painting was half done, he looked at the forever 15-year-old boy on the painting, suddenly let out a stern and strange laugh, then tore up the painting, Zhao Wu was startled, and stepped back, Chu Heng raised her face, and she saw that the gentle expression on the young man's face had changed into an indifferent sullenness.
But the young man made a sound, still gentle and gentle. He tore up the painting, but he seemed to regret it, and slowly tried to put the painting back together: "Tell me, if Prince Nian lived to this day, what should he look like?" ?”
Chao Wu was full of doubts, and Chu Heng continued: "I always think, if Anian is still alive, what age group will his appearance stay on the road of cultivation? Is it like me, he will stop at the young man? Appearance? He will still grow up a bit, after the age of crowning, he will grow taller and his body will be stronger, but... I can only think of his appearance when he was 15 years old."
At this moment, Zhao Wu's mind moved, and she opened her mouth wide in surprise: "This painting, this stone statue... are all the crown prince's thoughts?"
Only then did Chu Heng raise his head, his eyes swept across the hanging paintings and erected stone statues, he did not look at Chaowu, and his voice was calm as if he was talking to himself: "It's really strange, sometimes I think about why my Ah Nian, my Changning...why did he die? Why didn't someone else die?"
Zhao Wu didn't know what happened to the black dragon's past, she tried her best to comfort her: "You...sorry."
Then Chu Heng laughed lightly, and he said: "Sometimes, I really wish that the whole world would be wiped out. It's right that the whole world... should be buried with my Anian."
As soon as these words came out, Chao Wu was so frightened that her legs trembled, but when she went to see Chu Heng, she saw that the young man who said this had no killing intent on his face, but saw the young man staring blankly, because he still looked like a young man. , In fact, the eyes still look clear and beautiful.
Just staring blankly at the unknown time, a bit of deep-seated sadness suddenly appeared.
"But I always think... It's better to be alive. In that case, there may always be a few people like me who still remember that there was once my Anian in this world."
After a long while, the young man's voice came out again, soft and inaudible, Zhao Wu's heart was sore, the young man's voice filled the cave, and she suddenly understood that the young man in front of her was exactly what Xie Jinzhou had told her about a hundred years ago. The man who was possessed by the Great Tribulation of the Mountain.
According to rumors of the righteous way, Chu Heng, a disciple of the Shangqing Peak of the Sanqing Sect, was bewitched by a demon, and it was the reincarnation of the demon dragon Ao Chi, so he returned to the body of the demon dragon and became the real dragon demon.
However, there are rumors in unofficial history that Chu Heng saw his junior brother disappearing in his arms, and shouted three times "Heaven deceived me". So bewitched...
But now, no matter whether it is the righteous way or unofficial rumors, there is nothing but a sad boy in front of him.
A few strokes of history books are waiting to be written... The legend turns out to be nothing more than a farewell in the end.
"Children." The woman came over and waved at these children, "Do you want to eat candy?"
After she finished speaking, these shabby-dressed children were timid and did not dare to come forward. When they heard the word eating candy, their expressions were still a little timid, but they couldn't help but ran to the place. In front of the woman, the woman lowered her head and found that these children were all barefoot, without even shoes.
She tried her best to soften the expression on her face, softened her voice and asked these children: "I'll ask you a few questions, and after you answer them, I'll give you these candies, okay?"
As she spoke, she waved her hand weakly, took out a small kit from the storage bag, unwrapped the knot, and there were five or six pieces of caramel in it. The little devils swallowed their saliva immediately, and the bolder ones took a step forward. Periodically, Ai Ai looked at the neatly dressed woman in front of her: "Sister, if you have any questions, we will tell you when we know."
As long as you give us the sugar.
"Do you know which country is the garrison in the city now?"
"It's from Chu State!" A child replied first. When the woman heard this, she had a smile on her face, and she continued to ask with this smile: "After the Chu State garrisoned troops, do you know who is the Taoist leader who will accompany you?" group?"

The leader was twenty-two years old, a majestic and mighty man named Liang Zhuo. When he saw this girl who looked like she was only in her twenties, he first greeted her with a few polite words and revealed their names and identities to each other. The girl's name was Chao. Wu is exactly a disciple of Tiandaolou.
After Liang Zhuo was polite, he tried to ask her: "The Immortal Elder is here, but what is the important thing?"
"Don't be so polite to me, my great-grandfather is Liang Feng." Zhao Wu smiled, "Is the immortal chief Xie Jinzhou Xie who accompanied you on the march?"
When she said that her great-grandfather was Liang Feng, Liang Zhuo knew that this girl belonged to his family. Immediately, he felt a little closer, so he told Chaowu that Xie Xianchang took the disciples of Tiandaolou to inspect the border of the station.

"I have no experience in defending against the enemy." Zhao Wu said loudly, but there was already a fight below, Liang Zhuo was in command, and there was a lot of noise in his ears, he didn't hear what Zhao Wu said at all.
Seeing that a few evil spirits above the head had already formed a formation, and seeing something about to fall, Liang Zhuo shouted at Chaowu: "Miss Chaowu! It's up to you! Is there any enchantment or barrier? Hurry up and block it!"
A drop of sweat emerged from Chao Wu's forehead, she reached into the storage bag, first raised it, and a handful of thin pointed objects like shuttles flew towards the people in the air, and they didn't hide, Chao Wu only heard Jie Jie's strange laughter, and saw that his magic weapon rushed over and those people turned into black smoke, Chao Wu's heart tightened, and he was shocked: "Demon Race!"
The black mist is like a deep pool of water. Once the magic weapon enters it, it will be devoured no longer. A few clouds of black mist have dispersed and gathered, and they have already rushed towards Chaowu. .
And the black mist had already arrived in front of her in a blink of an eye, and it was about to engulf her. A fan lay between the girl and the black mist.

This scream is against us Regardless, both the enemy and us stopped fighting below, and they all clutched their heads and turned dizzy.
Xie Jinzhou's eyebrows were already tightly frowned, and he said, "It's really strange, what wind brought him here?"
Zhao Wu was holding the hand of the jade talisman and was about to put the jade talisman into the storage bag. Hearing this, he asked Xie Jinzhou curiously: "Who? Who brought it here?"
As soon as the words were finished, dragons chanted everywhere, opened their eyes wide towards the fog, and then quickly backed away. The black dragon was flying all the way, covered in lightning, surrounded by black fog, and came straight towards the city wall. The black mist of the demons turned into human figures one after another, kneeling on the ground in the air and shouting "Demon Venerable".
Xie Jinzhou shook his sleeves and held a fan. As the saying goes, you don’t hit a smiling face with your hands. As soon as he grinned, he saw the black dragon attacking with a flick of his tail. With one blow, they were beaten to pieces, and this time they couldn't get together at all.

"Can you let me go? Tiandaolou is more powerful than you imagined!"
But no matter how much Zhao Wu yelled, the black dragon ignored her. After shouting for a long time, Chao Wu also gave up on asking questions. There are too many mistakes, just like ants and people, she can't even run out of the dragon's claws.
Thinking desperately like this, the girl is also big-hearted. After a while, she fell asleep. The shiny things almost blinded my eyes.
The flying speed of the black dragon slowed down a lot. Looking carefully towards the fog, most of the glittering things are corals as tall as a person. There are various ornaments made of oriental beads and gold hanging on the corals. These things are covered by the cave wall. The light from the luminous pearl inlaid on the top reflects the bright light, which immediately reflects the richness and honor in the cave.
But within a few breaths, the sparkling things disappeared, and the light in the cave went dark again, only the light of the Ye Mingzhu was faintly bright, especially after the morning fog was put down, there were statues of a person all around, and all kinds of people. With the scattered paintings hanging, against the gloomy light, I feel chills all over my body, as if I have been trapped by some ghost.
After she was put down, the black dragon's body was much smaller than when he first saw her. Her waist was brushed by the dragon's tail. Before Zhao Wu could react, the storage bag at her waist was taken away by the black dragon. Zhao Wu was in a hurry: " what are you up to?!"
As soon as she finished yelling, she saw the black dragon land two or three feet in front of her. As soon as it landed, Chao Wu rubbed her eyes. There was no black dragon in front of her, only a man in plain clothes was standing there .
The man lowered his head, but the hair tied with a headband hangs down, blocking his face, and he can't see clearly in the fog, but it seems that the black dragon has turned into a human form. She also lost a little fear and walked forward boldly. After taking two steps, the man had already taken out a jade talisman from the storage bag.
"You..." Chao Wu opened his mouth. Just as he spoke, the person on the opposite side lowered his head and stroked the jade talisman, and also spoke. The voice was as indifferent as a handful of snow in winter, without any temperature at all. He asked Chao Wu Wu: "Where did you get this jade talisman?"
At this moment, the man raised his face and looked towards Chaowu.
Zhao Wu met his face and was stunned. What kind of man is this? He is clearly a boy who does not look more than seventeen or eighteen years old. His face is not as sharp and angular as that of an adult man. with the teenager.
What made Chaogiri even more distracted was that the young man's brows were perfectly formed. Although those eyebrows and eyes were full of dark eyes that seemed to have passed through the years, it couldn't stop him from having a handsome, almost beautiful face. .
"Where did this jade talisman come from?" Chaowu was in a daze, Chu Heng touched the jade talisman with his fingertips, felt the familiar aura in the jade talisman, his eyes clearly showed a trace of tenderness, but he asked Chaowu's tone aloud It was already cold with a bit of evil spirit.
Chao Wu trembled, and silently took a few steps back before returning to Chu Heng: "This is passed down from my great-grandmother, and it is what was left behind by the person my great-grandmother served before she left."
"Who is your great-grandmother?" A name came to Chu Heng's mind.
Chaowu replied honestly: "My great-grandmother's name is Wang Chunniang, but her real name is Chaowu."
After a pause, Chaowu said again: "My great-grandfather's branch, as long as a girl is born, there will be a person who will inherit the name of Chaowu. It is said that the great-grandmother was afraid that she would not be alive when the owner of the jade talisman wanted to find her. There are rules like this."
"Your great-grandfather is Liang Feng." After hearing this, Chu Heng understood Chao Wu's identity in his heart, and he was the descendant of the maid who was next to Xu Nian and the officer of Chu State.
His eyes dimmed, and he turned into a black dragon while holding the jade talisman. He circled to the table at the end of the cave and then fell. He seemed a little sleepy, and yawned. The jade talisman was pressed under his belly, and the dragon's head and tail formed a circle , with his head resting on his tail...and fell asleep.
Chao Wu saw the man and turned into a dragon again, and stood there tremblingly for a long time before he tentatively asked, "You...can you let me go?"
She asked in a very low voice, but Heilong ignored her, as if she didn't hear it, Zhao Wu raised her voice a little bit, but after several rounds, no one responded to her, she turned around and ran away, who knew that she came to the "wealthy and overpowering" place in her eyes. For a while, there was an enchantment blocking the way.
Chao Wu had no choice but to go back the same way, the black dragon was sleeping, she walked over to pick up the storage bag dropped by the black dragon, don't go back to her waist, the whole person was doing nothing, seeing that the black dragon really didn't care about her, she turned around the cave.
This cave should be in a big mountain, and the ground is flat. I don’t know if it was leveled by the black dragon himself. The surrounding mountain walls are also dry. Although the whole cave is not exposed to the sun, it is ventilated. The whole cave looks like a small square.
When Zhao Wu first came in, he was taken aback by dozens of statues. Now that he was free, he went to look at the stone statues of various colors standing in the cave. After looking at them one by one, he realized that they were all one person.
It was a boy who looked to be only about 15 years old. Looking carefully at the mist, he thought to himself, the person who made this statue is either a very skilled sculptor, or...he has a very deep relationship with this young boy.
It's just a statue, but the young boy's delicate facial features are clearly visible, not only his facial features, but also his clothes, hair, and tied headbands are all handled with great detail.
In the cave, the statue of the boy counted towards the fog. Some of the boy was standing, some were posing with a sword, and some were sitting there with a smile on their face. Next, exactly seven or nine and 63 seats.
At the same time, she also saw that there were paintings next to each other on the mountain wall, those paintings were reflected by the light of the night pearl, and the paintings inside were all of this young man.Just like the stone statue, some of the teenagers in the painting are standing and looking into the distance, some are leaning against the window with a smile on their faces, and some are sitting under the eaves with wind chimes, quietly looking ahead.
This painting is several times more than that of the stone statue. Some of them are just a turning and a back view, or a single painting. Chaowu counted it this time, but he couldn't count how many.
She was bored with counting, and finally sat in an open space, meditating cross-legged. When she opened her eyes, she first felt a wave of demon energy, and then she was so frightened that she hid back in front of a stone statue. Someone entered the cave, so she poked her head out. Seeing a person with long hair hanging loose in a black robe, he probably saw her but ignored her and walked straight to the black dragon.
The man clasped his hands and shouted: "Demon Venerable."
Heilong raised his head, and cast a cold glance at this person. Zhao Wu was quite far away from the two of them, and they both sensed an undisguised killing intent.
Zhao Wu didn't understand the rest of the words, but saw that the man's face and mouth had collapsed into a line, and he left in a very unhappy manner. When he left, he saw the black dragon turned into a boy again, sitting in front of the desk The pen seems to be drawing something.
Zhao Wu hesitated whether he should go forward or not, when he heard the boy's gentle voice: "Little girl, come here, I have something to ask you."
She was really startled by the voice, she didn't realize who was talking for a while, but when she realized it, she stepped forward cautiously, Chu Heng looked up at her, the expression on her face was no longer the indifference or sternness before, but It is as gentle and polite as a "gentleman's rules".
The expression on this face was quite familiar to Zhao Wu, quite similar to Xie Jinzhou. She boldly stepped forward, stood still in front of Chu Heng, and swallowed: "What do you want to ask me?"
She thought in her heart, if the demon king asked about Tiandaolou, what should she say? The Kyushu Continent is now standing on two legs. , In addition, the righteous way of the comprehension world is constantly eliminating demons in Kyushu, and there are monster races fishing in troubled waters.
But as soon as Chu Heng opened his mouth, he asked: "Since your great-grandmother has established that each generation will have a girl inherit the name Chaowu, has she ever told the past about the person she was waiting for?"
Zhao Wu hesitated for a moment, Xu Guo had been destroyed for more than a hundred years, and how could those cultivators care about common things in the world, so he answered honestly: "The person my grandmother served was actually Prince Nian of the Xu State who had already perished. When she was old, she was already a little confused, but sometimes she would pull people to talk about her past in King Xu's palace."
As soon as she said this, Chu Heng's eyes lit up, and his originally gentle eyebrows instantly revealed a burst of joy, but after the joy disappeared for a few breaths, Zhao Wu saw that there was a bit of distress between his eyebrows.
Zhao Wu only felt that his eyes were dazzled, and sure enough, the next moment, he saw Chu Heng lowered his brows and eyes, still in a gentle manner, but when he spoke, his voice still showed a little bit of elusive sadness: "Then do you remember your grandmother?" Did you mention the past about Prince Nian? If you remember... can you tell me a few words?"
Zhao Wu was completely stunned, the black dragon's evil spirit was completely gone, and in front of her was just a young man with a sad and sad expression.
"I don't remember very clearly, so I can only pick some and remember to talk about it." Zhao Wu's expression was complicated, and he felt a little pity for the boy in his heart, as if he had forgotten that the real boy in front of him was the leader of all demons Demon Lord of the Black Dragon.
In the cave, the girl's voice was thin, talking about the past of the old grandmother who did not know how many years ago, the flowers that bloomed in the royal palace, the children who were spoiled... those things that seemed to have never existed because no one remembered them. People and things slowly passed through time again, echoing in the cave with the girl's voice.
I don't know how many days later, Zhao Wu only felt that her tongue seemed to be worn out. She should have been asked to repeat those vague past events so many times, but after these few days of getting along, she became more courageous. After getting up, I finally couldn't help but ask Chu Heng fawningly today: "I'm useless, can you let me go?"
Chu Heng lowered his head, a painting was half done, he looked at the forever 15-year-old boy on the painting, suddenly let out a stern and strange laugh, then tore up the painting, Zhao Wu was startled, and stepped back, Chu Heng raised her face, and she saw that the gentle expression on the young man's face had changed into an indifferent sullenness.
But the young man made a sound, still gentle and gentle. He tore up the painting, but he seemed to regret it, and slowly tried to put the painting back together: "Tell me, if Prince Nian lived to this day, what should he look like?" ?”
Chao Wu was full of doubts, and Chu Heng continued: "I always think, if Anian is still alive, what age group will his appearance stay on the road of cultivation? Is it like me, he will stop at the young man? Appearance? He will still grow up a bit, after the age of crowning, he will grow taller and his body will be stronger, but... I can only think of his appearance when he was 15 years old."
At this moment, Zhao Wu's mind moved, and she opened her mouth wide in surprise: "This painting, this stone statue... are all the crown prince's thoughts?"
Only then did Chu Heng raise his head, his eyes swept across the hanging paintings and erected stone statues, he did not look at Chaowu, and his voice was calm as if he was talking to himself: "It's really strange, sometimes I think about why my Ah Nian, my Changning...why did he die? Why didn't someone else die?"
Zhao Wu didn't know what happened to the black dragon's past, she tried her best to comfort her: "You...sorry."
Then Chu Heng laughed lightly, and he said: "Sometimes, I really wish that the whole world would be wiped out. It's right that the whole world... should be buried with my Anian."
As soon as these words came out, Chao Wu was so frightened that her legs trembled, but when she went to see Chu Heng, she saw that the young man who said this had no killing intent on his face, but saw the young man staring blankly, because he still looked like a young man. , In fact, the eyes still look clear and beautiful.
Just staring blankly at the unknown time, a bit of deep-seated sadness suddenly appeared.
"But I always think... It's better to be alive. In that case, there may always be a few people like me who still remember that there was once my Anian in this world."
After a long while, the young man's voice came out again, soft and inaudible, Zhao Wu's heart was sore, the young man's voice filled the cave, and she suddenly understood that the young man in front of her was exactly what Xie Jinzhou had told her about a hundred years ago. The man who was possessed by the Great Tribulation of the Mountain.
According to rumors of the righteous way, Chu Heng, a disciple of the Shangqing Peak of the Sanqing Sect, was bewitched by a demon, and it was the reincarnation of the demon dragon Ao Chi, so he returned to the body of the demon dragon and became the real dragon demon.
However, there are rumors in unofficial history that Chu Heng saw his junior brother disappearing in his arms, and shouted three times "Heaven deceived me". So bewitched...
But now, no matter whether it is the righteous way or unofficial rumors, there is nothing but a sad boy in front of him.
A few strokes of history books are waiting to be written... The legend turns out to be nothing more than a farewell in the end.
