25. Unexpected Visitors(1/2)
From Chongming Island, it goes out of the East China Sea, goes to the intersection of Middle Earth, Japan, and the three Koreans, and goes back and forth for 800 miles. At the center of the vast waters, it is the Penglai Fairy Mountain.
More than a thousand years ago, this fairy mountain stood on the sea area, but with the arrival of the Dharma-Ending Heavenly Tribulation, the fairy mountain also dissipated like the age of the fairy spirits. But it is still there, but I don’t know where it was hidden.
Zhang Moye told Chen Qiu that he had found it in the East China Sea and had also found traces of Penglai, but with the protection of the mountain protection formation, even if he was as good as Zhang Moye's martial arts, he could not enter Penglai.
In other words, as long as the thief of Penglai is always slaughtering, no matter how angry the people in the martial arts world are, they will not be able to kill the immortal mountain and seek justice.
However, there is no way out.
Zhuanshanjun also revealed to Chen Qiu that Penglai can certainly hide under the deep sea for a long time, but if you want to activate the All Spirit Formation, the fairy mountain must reappear.
The formation covering the world of Zhongdi has a very precise design and cannot tolerate any mistakes. As the eyes of the world formation, this fairy mountain needs to be moved to a specific position.
Then, the world veins are used as spiritual energy carriers to finally descend the spiritual realm.
Yes.
This fairy mountain can move freely.
In the waters of the East China Sea, the huge black iron boat was pulled by four strange snakes like dragons, and was rushing rapidly on the sea surface, just like surfing, without any bumps in the heavy hull.
Penglai used spiritual energy to drive the floating formation on this ancient iron boat, making the iron boat nearly ten inches away from the water surface, as if flying close to the water surface, pulling out a long white water mark on the sea surface, if you want to separate the sea.
Overall it looks like a large hovercraft, but not that much noise.
These strange snakes that were pulling the boat, like the strange snake spirit beasts that were killed by mountain ghosts in Qilu at that time, had the ability to control water. Wherever they went, the sea with waves would become calm.
Very fast.
Although it is not as fast as the speed of sound, it is far beyond ordinary sea ships.
The long journey of more than 800 miles is probably enough to be completed in one day. This scene has amazed the tourists from the world. They are as wandering as Zhang Lan and still have the intention to wander back and forth in the iron boat, just like looking at the foreign things in a diorama.
In the martial arts world, even the Mo family, who are the most skillful, cannot make such furnishings.
But more people are not as heartless as Zhang Lan. Most of them stay in their cabins, either closing their eyes to rest or thinking about what is coming.
“The show is very big.”
On the upper floor of the iron boat, Yang Tao was carrying an ancient piano case and leaning on a peach wooden stick. She stood at the edge of the cabin, looking out from the window, looking ahead like a dragon playing in the water, and occasionally fighting with each other.
He told the others in the cabin:
"As soon as I took action, I used this immortal creation to appear with a spirit beast, and gave me a warning to the warriors. Not to mention others, even I was shocked when I saw this big iron ship being pulled up from the bottom of the sea by a strange snake.
What do you think?"
The others in the cabin had no opinion. Wujiu Juzi was not here now. As a Mozhe, he was already happy about the iron ship. As soon as he got on the ship, he went around to check the principles of the mechanism.
And the rest, those who are left here, are either calm and ignoring these fancy bells and whistles.
Or they are knowledgeable, such as Chen Qiu, sitting steadily on the chair and drinking the best tea with A Qing on the opposite side.
He was a little surprised at the posture of the iron ship when it first came out, but he soon felt relieved.
Such creation is indeed a Western scene for the people in the martial arts world, but for him, it is a bit not very tasty, just a few thousand kilograms of iron floating on the water.
He has also seen nearly 100,000 kilograms of iron blocks, and can fly thousands of miles at an altitude of ten thousand meters without any immortal formations.
Not only have I seen it, but also experienced it myself.
Compared with that kind of experience, this big iron ship that was pulled by the dragon snake was like this.
Chen Qiu was more concerned about at this time, another issue.
He took a sip of tea, looked at Yang Tao, and said:
"Master, I have something unknown. Your Holy Fire Cult has been very low-key over the years. After taking my family's Shiyin, I have been doing my best to make the Holy Fire prosperous. With the letter from Shiyin, I said that under her control, the Holy Fire was nearly a hundred years ago.
It's almost the most prosperous.
Chen once thought that the head sect would use this holy fire to do something big, but he didn't expect that today, the head sect came to join the fun of Penglai for the first time.
Also stand with us to fight against the Penglai thieves.
I thank the head teacher for his help, but before I arrived at Xianshan, I hope the head teacher will help me solve my doubts. Why do you do this? We are far from friends, right?"
"Haha, Shiyin tells me, Chen Qiu likes to think more, now it seems that this is true."
Yang Tao was angry because of Chen Qiu's doubts.
He still maintained his slow posture, leaning on peach sticks in his hands, looking at the distant sea view, and said in a gentle tone:
"To be honest, I really don't care about the Penglai people. They will bring about a kind of change.
I welcome the arrival of change.
If the things in the world remain unchanged, how should I and the Holy Fire Sect expect a thousand-year-old bright world?
Any change is an opportunity.
Unfortunately, when we look at what Penglai does and does, and see what they think and think, their actions are not like the new world revealed by the bright prophecy in our religion.
You are right. I am not a friend, and I still have some conflicts.
But if you rebels can really bring the arrival of a bright world, then don’t say that you want me to abandon past grudges and be friends with you, even if you want me to commit suicide before you, it is not impossible to discuss it.”
Speaking of this, Yang Tao stopped.
He looked back at Chen Qiu and said seriously:
"I have never wanted to harm you. What I do in this life has nothing to do with good and evil. There is always only one reason to drive me to do things.
If something can advance the arrival of the bright world, then I must do it.
If some people will hinder the arrival of the light world, then I will get rid of them even if I try my best!
This is why, I will go to Suzhou, I will go to Jinling, I will stay dormant for several years and suddenly appear here... You can't understand my thoughts when you wait for these people without faith.
There is no need to try to understand these things. Do you think I will help you this time?
Wrong.
I don’t help anyone, I just walk with you, so that what I’m looking forward to will come.”
Chen Qiu pursed his lips.
This speech made him feel uncomfortable. Although Yang Tao's face was calm and she spoke ordinary words, the meaning was really something that ordinary people could not understand.
However, he also understood the rules of conduct of this crazy believer.
After a few breaths, he asked again:
"Then, Zhang Moye asked you to be a demon sect back then, and you agreed so readily..."
"The leader promised me that if he could see the world of light, he would see the world of light."
Yang Tao completed the second half of Chen Qiu's words, and his eyes also fell on Chen Qiu's sword jade on his wrist. He said:
"I was skeptical about the leader at that time, but I finally believed him because I had never seen such a strange thing in my life, and was not afraid of the burning of the holy fire.
Perhaps, this is what I have been waiting for, which can bring the key to the bright world."
The conversation between Chen Qiu and Yang Tao was also heard by the others in the cabin. Ah Qing looked at Yang Tao more and more strange. She had just seen the conversation between Yang Tao and Yaoqin, and she thought this old man was a gentleman.
But now it seems that this old man is a complete madman, but he just looks like a normal person.
Huang Wusan said:
"But Master, you come here to seek the arrival of the world of light. Unfortunately, this trip is dangerous. With just one move, you may die. If you die here, then what's the use of the world of light you are looking forward to finally arrive?"
"Just as long as it comes!"
Yang Tao stretched out her left hand, placed it on her right shoulder, and said softly:
"My Holy Fire Cult has been going on for thousands of years, and its original intention has not changed. Generations of leaders and believers have paid all to continue the Holy Fire. What our predecessors do is like a glorious way, guiding me to move forward.
As long as it comes, then I will die if I die. What's the point?
As long as the world of light descends, all I believers in the Holy Fire can obtain pure Pure Land forever, bathe in the glory without being stained with dust.
The holy fire is beating, burning my body, the holy fire is brilliant, and it gives me shining."
This answer made everyone, including Chen Qiu, feel a little silent. No matter how Yang Tao acts, it seems that she is really a pure person now.
In this situation, he had to lie completely.
This is what he thought.
"The head teacher is particular, I admire him."
Chen Qiu and this crazy believer had nothing to say, so they could only hold their fists and say perfunctory.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, A Qing stood up suddenly, raised the green jade bamboo in his hand, and pointed it straight in front of him. The next moment, a purple light suddenly appeared. As everyone was stunned, a rotating purple light curtain lit up in the cabin.
It was like a door being pushed open.
With the sound of light footsteps, Mrs. Tongtang wrapped her body with a white bear cloak. She walked out of the light curtain, holding a big shiny orange cat in her hand.
The moment the cat appeared, Bai Ling'er, who was parading down the cabin, was suddenly excited and jumped out of Zhang Lan's arms, rushing up the cabin with the wind, so anxious that Zhang Lan followed behind him, not knowing what had happened.
"lady?"
Except for Chen Qiu, everyone else stood up one after another, and A Qing spoke in shock.
To be continued...
