Antiquity

Chapter 61 The reason
"The catastrophe of chaos? 6 years ago? Apocalypse, you mean it's already 6 years ago?"

The woman on the throne crossed her legs lazily, and there was a faint surprise in her eyes when she glanced down, but sinking in her heroic and silent black pupils, she felt that this surprise was too insignificant, and could not even be aroused. There was a ripple.

The hands tapping on the throne formed a semicircle, and Qingyue's voice echoed in the hall, indifferent and harsh.

Feng Ran raised her head and looked at the woman in black clothes sitting on the throne with a complex expression, her lips moved but she didn't make a sound.

She had known for a long time that Houchi would never be the same after awakening, but she never thought that Houchi would disappear completely. The true god is ancient.

Tian Qi sat not far from the ancient world, resting his chin on his right hand, with purple hair hanging on his waist, with a relaxed expression, nodded and said: "Naturally, it will be 6 years later, when the catastrophe of chaos came, and the gods in the ancient world fell. The fall of the world, the escape from the world, there is not much left, and in the end it was up to you to resolve the disaster with the power of the source. After that, the ancient world was covered with dust, and you slept for tens of thousands of years. Before awakening, your identity was Qingchi Houchi, the little god of the palace, but the news of your awakening was a bit loud 100 years ago, and now your identity is known in the Three Realms, so there is nothing to shy away from."

Feng Ran raised her head abruptly and looked at Tian Qi with an ambiguous look in her eyes, such a few simple words wiped out the existence of what happened back then.

"Oh, is that so?" Shang Gu touched his chin and said softly, "Since you are here, what about Bai Jue and Zhi Yang?"

There was a moment of silence in the hall, the leaning purple figure froze, and then quickly raised his eyes, his voice was a little heavy: "Before you were robbed, you appointed Twilight as the Lord of the Three Realms, and he was to lead the Immortal Realm, but the Ancient Realm was covered in dust. Afterwards, Optimus Prime, who possessed the power of the ancestor god, came to the world, and Sen Jian, the lord of the demon world, was established. , Later, in the battle between immortals and demons, the demon emperor died in battle, and because of the great disparity between the great prince Sen Hong and Twilight's divine power, Bai Jue took over the demon world, and for nearly a hundred years, there has been no incident between the two worlds."

"Bai Jue is now in the realm of the sky, which is the wild swamp back then. As for the burning sun... I don't know."

Tian Qi's voice settled down, and the ancient phoenix raised his eyes slightly, and said suspiciously: "What is this saying? The four true gods are connected with each other, and for 3000 years, even if he sleeps like you, it is enough for you to find his trace."

The four true gods have existed for tens of millions of years, and reincarnation from deep sleep is nothing more than a trivial matter, but there has never been a reason why they can't be found as they are now.

"If you can't find it, you can't find it. What can I do?" Tian Qi rolled his eyes, turned his face and stopped talking, but his hands hidden under the sleeves were slightly bent.

"Okay, let's talk about this matter later. You said that my previous identity was Houchi, the god of Qingchi Palace. That's the case. Does Houchi have relatives and friends?" Shang Gu interrupted Tianqi's muttering and asked.

When she regains her divine power at its peak, finding Zhiyang will only be a simple matter. Tian Qi has always been the most tempered among the four, so it's better for her not to pursue it.

"Naturally."

Fengran thought that Tianqi would not mention it, and was worried, but he didn't think he would answer simply, so she couldn't help being startled.

"She is the one who brought you up." Tianqi pointed at Fengran, calmly: "The Shangshen Gujun of Qingchi Palace failed a long time ago and has fallen. Fengran is now in charge of Qingchi Palace."

Fengran stood up abruptly, looked at Tianqi, her eyes were burning: "Shenjun Tianqi..."

"I know you miss Gu Jun, I'm just mentioning it, why do you care about it." Tian Qi raised his eyes and looked at Feng Ran, where the ancients couldn't see, his pupils were deep and cold, with a chilling look.

Fengran's heart suddenly felt cold, seeing the ancient looking at her suspiciously, he sat down slowly, and said in a low voice: "The ancient god, after the ancient emperor Shangshen falls, I will be in charge of the Qingchi Palace."

"Are you from the ancient phoenix family? Hey, is it just an uncommon fire phoenix?" The ancient dynasty looked at Fengran, then suddenly turned to Tianqi and said, "What happened to Wuhuan? Did he fall in the chaos?"

"No." Tian Qi wrote lightly: "After the ancient world was dusty, she married Twilight as his wife and had three sons and one daughter. Feng Ran was born as a fire phoenix, and was abandoned by the tribe in the Yuanling swamp. The tree demon who took care of Fengran died at the hands of the third prince of the demon world, Sen Yun, and the eldest prince of the fairy world, Jing Jing. I stayed in Qingchi Palace to be raised by you."

"So that's how it is." Shang Gu looked at Feng Ran with some surprise in his eyes, with faint admiration: "Your temper suits my appetite, since you are the one who raises my body, you can call me Shang Gu from now on. As for If they are still dissatisfied with the entanglement with the immortal and demon realms, just tell me."

After she finished speaking, she waved her hand, and a faint silver light fell on Feng Ran's body: "This divine power can protect you well, if it is not for the God, it will not be able to hurt you."

The voice of the ancients settled down, and before Fengran could react, he stood up and said to Tianqi: "It is enough to know so much about the lower realm, but the ancient realm is still closed now?"

"Well, it was turned on briefly when you woke up, but you turned it off after you fell asleep. Why, you want to go and see." Seeing the ancients walking towards the entrance of the hall, Tianqi stood up, with fleeting hesitation in his eyes.

"Of course, the lower realm is not a place to stay for a long time after all. Why, I am so happy here? Could it be that there is a female fairy who attracted you?" And Bai Jue was able to stay in such a lower realm for so long."

Tian Qi paused, followed up calmly, and said with a smile, "It's just that it's fresh. You should ask Bai Jue about this sentence, maybe he will give you the answer."

"Oh, really? Don't tell me, when I wake up, all of you will be full of children and grandchildren!"

The chatting and laughing gradually faded away, and the two disappeared at the entrance of the main hall. Feng Ran, who was sitting on the wooden chair, was stiff and hadn't moved for a long time.

Fengran gave a wry smile, stood up, looked towards the entrance of the hall, and said in a low voice: "Sure enough, he is an ancient true god. Even the short guard is so domineering, which is the same as Houchi."

"It's just... God of Apocalypse, how much can you hide from 100 years ago?"

At the boundary between the fairy and the demon, under the thousand-meter gap, the scorching fire was burning endlessly, and Optimus Prime stood in midair.

The soldiers of the two worlds are all in full battle, separated by a thousand-mile gap, they are killing each other.

Ever since the Demon Emperor died in battle a hundred years ago, even though Bai Jue and Tianqi suppressed and mediated, the big war has not yet been fought, but the blood feud can be forgotten in just a hundred years. , Small frictions and disputes have never been broken.

It's just that the ancient world gate was opened here back then, so the burning place, the hundreds of miles around Optimus Prime, has never been visited by immortal soldiers or demon soldiers. This has almost become an unwritten rule. .

On this day, under the eyes of everyone, two floating shadows suddenly flashed beside Optimus Prime, one silver and one purple, appearing in the center of this hundred-mile distance.

Before the soldiers of the two armies came back to their senses, a powerful divine power emerged from the purple light, enveloping the two men a hundred meters away.

The surge of divine power made the tens of thousands of soldiers on both sides tremble for a while, as if they had guessed who was coming, the generals of the two armies calmly ordered to retreat ten meters.

"Why are there so many people in this place?" Glancing at the immortal soldiers and demon soldiers not far away, Shang Gu frowned and said, "Besides, the evil spirit here is too strong. How could there be so many people in the lower realm under Twilight's control?" resentment?"

"The place of war has been like this since ancient times, why should you care about it." Tian Qi said, and muttered: "It's not the Lord of the Three Realms you have chosen."

"Sure enough, it was transformed by the divine power left by the Father God." Shang Gu calmed down, didn't talk about this topic again, glanced at the top of Optimus Prime, and wondered: "Zhaoyang hasn't awakened yet?"

"Tianqi, just now I wanted to ask you, what happened after I was robbed? Why didn't the three of you protect the ancient world, but instead fell asleep one after another, leaving the ancient world dusty?" Shang Gu turned his head, his pupils were cold, and there was Undeniable majesty.

The true god is in charge of the supernatural power of heaven and earth. If it is not a catastrophe, otherwise there is no need to sleep for so long. Since she handed over the Three Realms to Twilight, it means that she had already expected that she was definitely more than just a simple deep sleep. She should be Prepared to fall, was the catastrophe of chaos 6 years ago really so terrible?
"After you fell into a deep sleep, we couldn't find where your original essence fell, and the ancient world was too boring, so the three of us decided to close the ancient world and sleep one after another until you returned. You also know that time is too long It's not a good thing to live a long time." Tian Qi said in a deep voice, a rare sense of vicissitudes and exhaustion in his charming voice.

Shang Gu paused, his eyes moved slightly, he stopped asking, and walked towards the empty space on Optimus Prime.

"The gate of the ancient world is closed." Shang Gu waved his hand, and a silver gate loomed in the air, but there was no trace.

"It was only with the three of us that it was completely closed back then. It appeared when you awakened a hundred years ago, but it was still closed for some reason."

"Because of the ancient emperor's sword." Looking at the bottomless gap under Optimus Prime, the ancients said indifferently: "There is a part of the ancient origin in the ancient emperor's sword. Open it, do you know why the ancient emperor sword fell here?"

"It was originally in the Sword Tomb of Daze Mountain. When you awakened 100 years ago, your divine power was chaotic, and the immortal foundation in Houchi was too weak to control the sudden surge of divine power, so Houchi threw the ancient emperor's sword here before he fell asleep. , The fire has never been extinguished for a hundred years, can you let it go out?"

There is no power in the world that can extinguish the scorching fire formed by the true god, otherwise he and Bai Jue wouldn't make this place uneasy for a hundred years.

"I can't." Shang Gu shook his head, with a hint of surprise in his eyes: "If I was in my heyday, maybe I could, but now I have just awakened, and the ancient origin has consumed too much, so it can't be done. According to what you said, Houchi only has immortals. Unexpectedly, the power of the king can cause such terrible damage. But the fire will only go out in a year at most, and after a year, I can take out the ancient emperor sword and open the ancient world."

"One year?" Tian Qi's voice was a little ethereal, and after a pause, he said: "Then this year..."

"Staying in Qingchi Palace, for us, gathers divine power, and a year will pass in the blink of an eye, go, go back." Shang Gu waved his hand, and just about to turn around, he seemed to think of something, and said: "The demon world is weak, I can understand that Bai Jue protects the demon world, but why does Twilight have the guts to confront him? Why, did you intervene?"

"Well, it's best to balance the power of the two worlds, but Bai Jue won't help the demon world, so Twilight is just borrowing my name."

Shang Gu nodded, and flew towards Qingchi Palace with auspicious clouds and Tianqi. The dazzling purple and silver light suddenly disappeared beside Optimus Prime, just as abruptly as when he came. Discussed too much.

That purple light must be the True God of Apocalypse, and as for the other person... Who in the Three Realms does not know that the True God awakened a hundred years ago in the ancient times, and the silver divine power breaks through everything in the world, so you don't need to guess to know who is coming.

The ancient true god lived in seclusion in the Qingchi Palace for a hundred years after awakening, and only now appeared in the world. How could he not attract the attention of the Three Realms.

Seeing that the Qingchi Palace was approaching, Shang Gu remembered the scene of the two armies being silent just now, laughed, and teased: "By the way, you still haven't said, when I was awakened, why was there such a commotion?"

"Of course there is a lot of noise. The place where you awaken is Bai Jue's residence in the lower realm, the realm of the sky. As for the time of awakening..." Tian Qi paused, his voice was unclear, but with a faint and unpredictable laziness: "Yes The day of Bai Jue's wedding."

The person walking in front suddenly looked back, the indifference in her expression was broken for the first time since waking up, she looked at Tian Qi with a strange expression, and repeated in disbelief: "What did you say? Bai Jue married? With whom?"

Tian Qi stood one step away from her, with an inexplicably distant expression, and a very soft voice.

"Shang Gu, I forgot to tell you that the person Bai Jue was going to marry 100 years ago was the daughter of Twilight and Wu Huan, named Jing Zhao."

There was a moment of silence on Xiangyun, Tian Qi clenched his hands slightly behind his back, and looked at the expression on Shang Gu's face with wide eyes without blinking.

The woman on the opposite side raised her eyebrows for a long time, and glanced in the direction of Tiangong. After a while, her voice changed: "Tian Qi, Bai Jue married Twilight's daughter, so why should I call Twilight 'uncle'?" ', Wu Huan said 'Auntie'? What kind of reasoning is this?"

Tian Qi's nervousness disappeared from the aggrieved "uncle" and "aunt" in the ancient times, a smile appeared in his eyes, he shrugged, and said: "Then I don't know, but you don't know now. You need to worry, the divine power you awakened 100 years ago has a large scope, and the wedding has not been carried out, and it has been delayed for 100 years, but Jing Zhao is now in charge of the realm of the sky, so she can be regarded as half a hostess."

Shang Gu waved his hand, looked at the Qingchi Palace which was close at hand, and said slowly: "It's fine if you don't go through the gate, you tell Bai Jue, don't let that Jing Zhao wander around this year, when I return to the ancient world, Let him do whatever he wants in the lower realm."

The two said that they had already approached the gate of Qingchi Palace, and Tian Qi said casually, "Why don't you let Jing Zhao hang around outside?"

Shang Gu turned his head, his eyes were clear, and he said as a matter of course: "I always have to go out, don't let her avoid it, do you want me to avoid it? She is just a fairy, let me avoid it, wouldn't it be a shame for her?" I will not do such a wicked thing if I lose her longevity, let alone my godly monarch's tens of millions of years of pure name, how can I ruin it on her!"

Tian Qi's footsteps paused, the corners of his mouth couldn't be restrained, and he finally raised his voice, saying, "I understand."

Satisfied with his obedience, Shang Gu waved his hand and said: "Don't follow me, after all, there is only such a big place, even my feet are not enough, so I won't get lost." Then he disappeared at the gate of Qingchi Palace. Gu Zi walked towards the inner hall.

The black figure gradually disappeared, and Tian Qi's sloppy expression slowly disappeared. He looked at the Huajing Pool, raised his eyebrows, and said, "Fengran, come out."

Fengran walked out from behind the rockery by the pool, and said, "I don't expect to be able to hide it from you, how about it, the ancient world can be opened?"

"It will be fine in one year, Fengran, go to the heavenly realm and tell Twilight that no one in the three realms will mention what happened to Houchi back then, including the existence of Qing Mu and Gu Jun."

"He can only manage the fairy world now, he can't interfere with the affairs of the demon world." Feng Ran shrugged and said.

"You don't have to worry about the demon world, as long as the people in Qingchi Palace don't talk nonsense, I will go to the realm of the sky myself." Tian Qi rubbed the corners of his eyebrows and said lightly.

"You just want to bury everything in Houchi so much. Don't forget, even if she is ancient, she is also Houchi." Seeing Tian Qi's indifferent face, Feng Ran lowered her eyes, and her voice suddenly became agitated.

"Feng Ran, it was Hou Chi who chose to give up that memory, not Shang Gu. Do you know why Shang Gu didn't even ask about Gu Jun and Hou Chi after waking up?" Tian Qi raised his eyes and looked at Feng Ran, deeply There was a deepness in Zi's pupils.

Feng Ran was slightly taken aback, then pursed her lips and stopped making a sound.Above the main hall, the ancients asked about the ancient world, the four true gods, and even the Queen of Heaven, Wu Huan, mentioned it, but they did not mention anything about the original owner of Qingchi Palace, Gu Jun, or his former host, Houchi. .

"You can see it too, can't you? She is an ancient person. To her, matters in the lower realm are not worth mentioning. Whether it is Qingmu, Baixuan, or Gu Jun, they are all just Houchi's dearest relatives and loved ones." She is an ancient true god, and if she doesn't want to, she will never stop for anyone in this world, and Houchi's memory is insignificant to her."

Feng Ran paused in place, seeing that Tian Qi's back was no longer visible, so she closed her eyes.

"What about Aqi? Why did you tamper with everything, but you didn't tell her that Aqi didn't exist? You are a true god. As long as you want to, it is not difficult to hide Aqi. As long as there is no Aqi, she will It is the real ancient, the ancient who has nothing to do with Houchi, isn't it?"

The figure who stepped into the gate of the palace paused slightly, did not answer, and disappeared at the gate of the palace.

Tianqi, how do you explain...the existence of Aqi?

Feng Ran lowered her eyes, slumped against the rockery, and did not leave for a long time.

There are not many immortals in Qingchi Palace, but there are not many. In just half a day, the news of the ancient true god's awakening spread. The originally extremely quiet palace was like a boiling furnace for a while.

Shang Gu soaked in the Houshan Hot Spring for a while, lamenting that Tian Qi hadn't made much progress in 6 years, and only cared about enjoying himself, while secretly slandering that this place would belong to her in the future.

The serving Xian'e carefully put down the replaced ancient robe, her face was flushed, and she said softly in the antiquity's expectant eyes, "Gods use it slowly" and ran away.

All the goddesses in ancient times lived for tens of thousands of years, and they were all showy and arrogant. I had never seen such a soft fairy in ancient times, and I was surprised for a while.Not long ago, when she saw Fengran's domineering temperament, she thought that the current female fairies hadn't changed much, but she didn't expect that all of them would become so weak and flamboyant.

As expected, the lower realm is not a place to stay for a long time, it's nothing more than a lack of spiritual energy, and they all look like a whole body, the ancients muttered and closed their eyes.

The hot spring is hidden in the mountains, surrounded by trails, and it is extremely quiet. Shang Gu, who was closing his eyes and resting his mind, heard a burst of sobbing, intermittently, obviously a child's voice, and frowned involuntarily.

I wanted to ignore it, but then I thought that she is also a guest after all. As the saying goes, she eats people with a soft mouth and short hands. Her upbringing of hundreds of thousands of years is not in vain. He glanced at the ancient robe, sighed, put on his robe and walked deep into the path.

Behind a large bamboo grove, a small red figure was squatting by the pond, the bun on his head swayed with the movement of his body, and a fat bird was flying up and down near him, with its mouth jumping up and down. Know what to mutter.

Could it be the little ghost that Houshan just took shape?
Shang Gu approached suspiciously, and finally heard the words of the little baby whose back was facing her, and stopped with a strange expression.

"Little cabbage, yellow in the ground, two or three years old, no mother..."

The ancients swear that in her thousands of years of life, she has never heard such a sad tone from the mouth of a child who is only a few years old.

This scene is even more frightening than snowstorm in June and thunder in winter.

Could it be that, in only 6 years, not only the heroic and mighty female fairy monarchs have disappeared, but even the vigorous little spirits have become extinct?
