I see You Lian is the ally

Di Ji walked over and said, "This painting was painted by Shufa. Since Jiang Ruyan specifically mentioned this painting, I guess there must be a message for you in it."

He glanced at the corner of the painting and suddenly saw that she looked wrong and her body seemed to be shaking uncontrollably.

"The person in this painting is someone you know?"

Huajiao nodded, formed a seal with her hands, and with a flash of light, she disappeared from the tomb.

At the same time, in the picture of thousands of miles of mountains and rivers, a graceful figure appears on the winding mountain road like a sheep intestine.

Huajiao understood that he had entered the painting at this time.

There are mountains on both sides of the mountain road, lush forests and beautiful mountain flowers. Several exquisite small courtyards were built on the mountainside by the river. When the women and girls washing their clothes by the river saw her, they all smiled and greeted her: "Ah Jiao, you are finally here."

"Go home quickly. Your mother-in-law is looking for you and says she has something important to talk about."

Huajiao looked at the familiar smiling faces in front of him and felt a sore heart.

Over the years, her impression of her clansmen has always been on the corpses with broken arms and limbs. When she saw these familiar and friendly smiling faces, even though she knew that these were not real clansmen, but just magic phantoms, she still had tears in her eyes. Laughed out loud.

Several girls in the clan who grew up with her dropped their work and came forward. The group of people surrounded her and walked towards her home.

My grandfather was pruning the branches of the flowers and trees in the courtyard, and my grandmother was sitting on the porch making tea. From time to time, the two of them smiled and looked at the grandmother and aunt who were playing chess in the courtyard. They were quarreling over a penny.

Such a scene was not common in Huajiao before.

Grandma and aunt used to be busy practicing magic. Grandfather and the men in the clan would either go out to slay demons or get together to discuss something. Even the women we just saw at the entrance of the village rarely gathered together by the river to wash their clothes.

In the Zhuangzi of the Puyi people, the time is rarely as peaceful as that depicted in the painting. They play chess, drink tea, admire flowers and talk about Taoism, embroider clothes, and do the trivial things in life.

They have all had great responsibilities since birth, and perhaps the life in the painting is what they have always longed for.

When several people saw Huajiao coming in, they all stopped what they were doing.

"Ah Jiao, come here quickly." Grandma waved to her.

Huajiao threw herself into her grandmother's arms, burying her whole head in her arms and rubbing her like she had done a few years ago.

Grandma smiled and touched her head and said, "Girl, get up. We have something important to tell you."

Huajiao jumped off his grandmother, sat on the stool next to him, picked up a grape and put it into his mouth, and said in a rogue manner: "Can I live here without going out?"

Aniang stretched out her finger and tapped her forehead, and said seriously: "You have a beautiful idea, you are a living person, do you want to live in a painting all the time? Now that you have found this place, we must have all suffered, and time is running out. , we will inform you about the heaven and earth overturning the formation."

Huajiao understood that although they were not real people, these words were left to him by A Niang and others using their magic, so he sat up straight and asked: "Now, the great demon Que Sheng is trying to activate this formation, what should I do?" Stop him?"

A-niang sighed softly and said: "Nuwa Empress only sealed the gap between Yunxu and the human world with a barrier. However, if there are more than ninety-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine resentful spirits in the world, the barrier will be unstable. It will slowly merge with Yunxu."

Huajiao frowned and asked: "What will happen after the fusion?" Aniang said: "Just imagine, the place where you are now is a mountain, but in Yunxu, this place is the sea. Once merged, there will be no mountains or seas. What will happen if the sea, mountains and sea merge?”

"The mountains fell and the seas overflowed."

Aniang nodded: "What will happen to the beasts in the mountains, the fish in the sea, and the people on the mountain and seaside?"

"Of course most of them have no way out." Huajiao was a little puzzled and asked, "But why are there 99 resentful spirits when there are [-] thousand?"

The aunt felt pity in her heart and said: "Nuwa's divine power was limited at that time. If there were too many resentful spirits in the world, the barrier would be broken. Most importantly, Nuwa believed that it was impossible for the resentful spirits in the world to approach one hundred thousand. She thought this number was very large. Safety."

Huajiao was surprised: "There are so many people in the world, how come there are more than 9 resentful spirits..."

Aniang smiled bitterly and said: "Ah Jiao, think about it, how many people were there in the human world in ancient times? God Nuwa naturally did not expect that our human race would multiply, and now there are tens of millions of people."

The aunt said again: "Ah Jiao, don't worry. In fact, among the more than 9 vengeful spirits, the vengeful spirits of the royal family must be collected into hundreds, and the vengeful spirits of father and son, brother and brother are fighting each other, but this is not so It’s easy to put together. Also, even if there is a big demon who has accumulated more than 9 resentful spirits, as long as there is no blood from you, the formation cannot be activated."

Huajiao was stunned: "My blood?"

She instantly remembered that she had seen the "saint's blood" in the incense recipe left by her mother, so she asked: "Aunt, you are not talking about the blood of the saint, but I am not a saint, my cousin is. "

Grandma sighed softly and said: "Ah Jiao, back then, the great goddess Nuwa bestowed divine blood on Jiang Yan, the ancestor of our Puyi tribe. This divine blood would be inherited by a baby every few generations, and this generation is you. Tribesman I pretended to call Ruyan a saint to protect you."

Therefore, when something happened to the Puyi clan that day, the reason why my sister Jiang Ruyan was captured by the snake was because Que Sheng and the others thought that Jiang Ruyan was a saint in the clan. She had been imprisoned for so long, so they were bound to let her blood go. She was Suffering for oneself. In the end, she was killed by Que Sheng on her behalf.

Huajiao's heart was shaken, he took a breath and asked: "If, I mean if, Que Sheng has accumulated enough resentful spirits, what should I do?"

Grandma and aunt looked at each other, and at the same time looked at grandfather, and said: "Dad, give the drinking pearl to Ah Jiao."

*
In the tomb, the coldness penetrated to the bones.

Di Ji stared at the "Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains" and saw Huajiao sitting in the courtyard, talking to her relatives.

After a while, the green mountains, green waters, green trees and flowers on the picture seemed to have been soaked in water, and the ink slowly blurred and disappeared.

The picture of thousands of miles of mountains and rivers suddenly turned into a piece of white paper. At the same time, a blue light flashed, and the corner of the picture jumped out of the picture.

She leaned over and looked at the picture that had become a blank piece of paper, knowing that once she went to the picture, the magic in the picture would be ineffective, and she would never see her relatives again.

A crushing pain suddenly exploded in her heart.

Di Ji saw Hua Jiao's face pale and whispered: "The air in the tomb is dull and cold. We shouldn't stay here for a long time. Let's leave here."

Huajiao clenched the poison-drinking beads in his hand and whispered: "Okay." (End of this chapter)
