51. Huanxi Village Girl(1/2)
The next morning, on Hutou Rock, Qingqing followed his senior brother to worship the incense for his ancestors in the already dilapidated Fan Li Temple.
This is the first ray of incense that has been in full swing in this ancient temple, which has mostly collapsed in more than a hundred years.
Seeing that the ancestor's ancestral hall was destroyed, Qingqing was also a little sad. When she was born, the Great Chu Dynasty had already been destroyed and she had never enjoyed the rich and elegant food as a princess.
I don't even know my own life experience.
But now, her biological father became a monk and was invincible. The originally prosperous Fan family has also disappeared in the war. The bloodline that lasted for thousands of years between heaven and earth is the only one left.
It's like being independent in the world. The loneliness born from blood makes the young junior sister, who has always been full of vitality, lose her smile on her face.
"Don't think too much."
Yaoqin was carrying the Luoyueqin box on her back and reached out to hold Qingqing's shoulders, and she said softly:
"That's true in the world, but you are still here, and the Great Chu Zhong is in good condition, and the Fan family still has hope of prosperity."
"But, can I really defeat the world?"
Qingqing raised her head and looked at her sister, she said:
"I'm just an ordinary girl with some martial arts skills, but I'm not strong enough. I've never seen General Li Shouguo, so Li Baoguo is also stupid.
When he was loyal to me, I was at a loss and didn't know what to do.
The struggle for dominance of the world is too far away. Now, thinking about it, it was a whim when I met the Li family’s request. Although I promised my senior brother that I also wanted to return the world to a peaceful and prosperous era.
But I can't even take good care of myself.
How to take care of the world?”
"You don't need your care in this world, you're a silly girl."
Shen Qiu turned his head and said to Qingqing:
"The Southern Dynasty was in chaos, the northern country was barbaric, and the people of the world had passed more than twenty years of chaos. They all looked forward to the end of the troubled times. What you have to do is gather those who are dissatisfied and want to change the situation.
You don't even need to do anything, just stand in front of them, give them a promise and a hope, with only a thousand hands, which will follow you and hold you to the throne of the supreme world.
Qingqing, you have seen the Bodhisattva in the temple, and you just need to be a symbol like her.
It is impossible to do things in the world by relying on only one person.
Since it is a matter for all people in the world, they have to do it themselves. You are like the outline on the ship, just lead them in a good direction."
“Is it that simple?”
Qingqing looked at her senior brother.
Shen Qiu shrugged, threw the white monkey in his hand onto his shoulder, and said:
"Anyway, it's definitely not as difficult as you think."
"Squeak squeak"
The white monkey screamed twice, with the round square hole hanging around its neck, which was also unbound. He grabbed a purple wild fruit in his hand and pointed to the deep mountains surrounded by clouds and mist in the morning ahead, and screamed twice.
After seeing the Fan Family Emblem, it seemed to have put aside its guard against this group of outsiders.
This monkey must have seen the same pattern emblem where he was and was quite intimate with the emblem, so he had such a reaction.
"Let's go."
Shen Qiu walked forward a few steps.
Next, the mountain road was difficult to move, and the carriage could not enter, so they could only move forward with their feet.
Fortunately, everyone who comes has martial arts skills. Even Yaoqin, the weakest body, is easy to lift and has a powerful husband. When he is tired, he lets his husband fly around, which is also very relaxed and comfortable.
Everyone was traveling through the mountains and forests, leaning against the little white cat like a tiger on the street, and no wild beasts dared to block the road along the way.
"There are monkeys again!"
Qingqing had sharp eyes. After entering the deep mountains and forests, she could see that there were white monkeys similar to those of the guide monkeys in the forest, running around them, with a large number.
"It's a group of monkeys."
Zhang Lan, who was carrying the black fish on his back, said:
"Monkeys live in groups. When I was traveling around the world, I encountered such a group of monkeys in Mount Emei. Those monkeys were very wild.
I was not good at it back then, and they even snatched some dry food from them."
"The monkeys here are also very powerful."
Xuanyu shook his head and said to his close brother Zhang Lan:
"You see, they all carry bamboo sticks, they are all monkeys who know martial arts. Ordinary people come to this deep mountain, and they will be beaten out by sticks.
If you are not lucky, you will lose your life.
This Tao Zhu Immortal is really interesting. He has a lot of ideas for taming monkeys to protect the mountain."
"Ordinary monkeys are good at martial arts. If there is a monkey king in the monkey group, it will be even more powerful."
Xiao Tie walked in the forest like a monster with a heavy sword on his back, and he said in a muffled voice:
"That little monkey swung his stick speed only slightly slower than Zhang Lan. The Monkey King in the Mountain is probably a martial art comparable to the Earth List. It is said that monkeys look the most like humans, and this is indeed true.
They are limited by their talents and cannot cultivate internal strength. If they have true energy to protect their bodies, Tao Zhushan will really be the world's sect."
"Shhh, stop the sound."
Shen Qiu, who was walking in front of him, suddenly stopped, raised his left hand, and signaled to stop behind him.
In front of everyone, there was white mist floating in the bamboo forest, gathering but not dispersing, as if it was the entrance of a valley, but the shadows were everywhere, and it was impossible to see the way ahead. There were also groups of monkeys screaming in the white mist.
The guide monkey lying on Shen Qiu's shoulder also squeaked, as if calling for answering.
Soon, a big man swayed out of the bamboo forest lightly, rolling in the air like a mountain of apes, landing steadily in front of everyone.
It's a big monkey.
When I stood up, it was as tall as the green one.
The most peculiar thing is that it is wearing shabby clothes, just like a real person.
A pair of eyes, with a dark blue, a sensual halo flowing in it. Behind the mane, there is a long bamboo stick on it. It is simple in style and has copper-edged patterns, which looks very beautiful.
This is obviously not a weapon that groups of monkeys can make.
Everyone looked at each other and knew in their hearts that they had probably arrived at their destination.
"Squeak"
The guide Xiaohou stood up from Shen Qiu's shoulder, threw the round square hole emblem hanging around his neck to the Monkey King in front of him, and then shouted twice with his hands and feet.
The big monkey then looked at the emblem that he threw over and over again, and then looked at everyone.
It seemed a little irritable, grabbed its neck, sat cross-legged on the ground and thought for a while, then roared again, turned around and walked back to the bamboo forest, took a few steps, turned around and waved to the people behind it.
The meaning is very obvious, keep up.
Shen Qiu walked forward, Xiao Tie and Zhang Lan followed behind, vaguely protecting Yaoqin and the other two. Stepping into the white mist, Shen Qiu touched the sword jade, but the strange thing did not shake.
There is no spiritual energy here, and there is no immortal soul.
This reassuring him.
After walking in the white mist, everyone's eyes suddenly became clear. A small valley thousands of feet wide was seen in front of them, like a village with a flat terrain and some buildings.
At the edge of the valley, there are some abandoned stone tablets. Standing at this high place, you can see the stone tablets staggered in an orderly manner, faintly forming a certain formation. Unfortunately, the spiritual energy does not exist, and the formation loses its magic and cannot be hidden here anymore.
But since there is a formation, it means that this is indeed a place for seclusion.
There are also small waterfalls flowing along the mountain walls in the valley, spanning the valley like a stream.
"This should be the real Huanxi."
Chen Qiu said to Qingqing beside him:
"Your ancestor, the Yue girl Xi Shi, should have been born here.
It seems that my senior brother is right. Fan Li is indeed an ordinary person. The ancestral hall is built outside the mountain, but Xi Shi is not small, so he is probably a person from the Immortal Sect."
The monkey king didn't say anything, jumped onto the branches, swung around the trees in the valley with flexibly movements, leading everyone to the valley. When he arrived at the outer building, Zhang Lan, with sharp eyes, saw some tombstones.
Just next to the stream, there are many tombstones, like a family cemetery.
Qingqing wanted to check it out, but was pulled by Chen Qiu.
Without the permission of the owner here, he rashly checked the cemetery of his ancestors. Even if Qingqing's surname is Fan, he is considered his own family with the owner in the valley, but it is a taboo thing.
“It’s very quiet.”
Yaoqin looked at the well-renovated buildings around her, and she said with some concern:
"It seems that no one lives there at all. Could it be that the Tao Zhu Xian Family has also had blood withered?"
"Someone."
The Xuanyu, who was lying behind Zhang Lan, pointed to the bamboo house in front of her and said:
"There is a medicinal field there, and someone must have cultivated it. There is at least one in this valley. Oh, I saw it! There is a person over there, like a girl."
