Antiquity

Chapter 75 Antecedents
Needle dropping could be heard in front of the Palace of the Sky, and the guards kneeling on the floor looked at their noses, noses, noses, noses and hearts, all of them pretending to be stupid, turning a blind eye to the weird scene in front of the hall.

Bai Jue looked at the child next to Tian Qi firmly, and after a long time, he sighed softly.

The voice seemed to break the taut strings, and the emotion of breaking the embankment was overwhelming. A Qi threw off Tian Qi, turned around and ran towards the main hall with short legs.

Tian Qi was stunned for a moment, and swept towards Bai Jue sharply, but narrowed his eyes slightly - the dark blue figure in front of him disappeared in place, and instantly appeared in front of the hall to stop A Qi who was rushing in.

With a sound of 'bang', A Qi bumped into Bai Jue's body, staggered, Bai Jue grabbed A Qi who almost fell to the ground, and walked in with him by the collar.

Tian Qi watched the big and the small disappear in front of the main hall, pointed at the guards at the side casually, raised his eyebrows and said, "Take me to see the ancients."

The guard who was ordered was flattered, hurriedly got up from the ground, and respectfully led Tian Qi towards the apse.

The figure dressed in fiery red was originally idle and slow, but when he walked through the quiet and empty corridor, and passed the jade stand in the back garden, he finally stopped, and his eyes fell on the abyss under the sea of ​​clouds. When I was in the vast sandy land of the Ridge Swamp, there was only pure regret and remorse.

"Put me down! Let me go quickly..." A Qi raised his head, twisted himself into a twisted shape, his feet hanging in the air stepped on many black footprints in front of Bai Jue, and his right hand grabbed the robe on his chest squealed.

The child's voice was already high-pitched and thin, but it sounded even more resentful and panicked, adding a bit of pity.

Bai Jue looked down at Ah Qi's red eye sockets and staring round eyeballs, a look of pity quickly flashed across his eyes, he looked at his blackened robe, he put Ah Qi on the ground, his brows slightly frowned Qi Qi: "You are so young, where did you learn to be so foolish?"

A Qi got out of the bondage, ignored Bai Jue, turned around and ran out, but was blocked in the pavilion by a gentle force, unable to get out.

"Let me go out." A Qi turned his head, clenched his fists and squeezed his mouth: "I don't have any parents, so no one cares where I come from!"

Bai Jue paused with his hands behind his back, and after a while, he frowned and said, "Tian Qi knows both ancient and modern things, Feng Ran's martial arts skills are superb, and Chang Que of Qingchi Palace knows everything about the Three Realms like the palm of his hand. How come there is no one around you?"

A Qi raised his head: "Then who are you? What does it matter to you that I am uneducated! If you have the ability, you can teach me yourself, why blame others!"

Bai Jue's complexion changed slightly. When he saw the delicate and lovely child in front of him baring his teeth and claws, he tightened his voice and said, "Why can't I care, I..."

I couldn't continue these words for a long time, and at the end it seemed that I was short of breath, and my eyes lowered slightly: "There are some things, you are still young, and you will understand later..."

"I don't understand!" A Qi said loudly, "I never want to understand."

"Do you know my name? It's not Aqi, it's Aqi. Mother doesn't know me. If you don't want me, why did you let me be born back then!"

Bai Jue quietly looked at A Qi who was hoarse and had tears in his eyes, and exhausted all his strength to keep himself standing still.

"Feng Ran told me that my father is Qingmu Shangjun from the Immortal Realm a hundred years ago, and my mother is Houchi Shangshen." A Qi stepped forward suddenly with short legs, grabbed Bai Jue's clothes, and whispered Said: "Shenjun Baijue, I know you are not my father, please return my father to me, okay? Feng Ran said that when I was in the shell, he would read to me every day and talk to me, He even built a small bamboo house for me on Mount Wangwang... I don't want it for a long time, just a month..."

Looking at the silent Bai Jue, A Qi prayed nervously: "Ten days... five days..."

The voice became smaller and smaller, until it was barely audible, and even choked slightly: "One day, how about one day, Lord Baijue, let me meet my father..."

"Aqi, Fengran and Tianqi treat you wholeheartedly, and they will do so in the future. It is enough for them to be by your side. I am not Qingmu, so I cannot be your father god. The ancient is resting in the bedroom of the apse. Go find her."

An indifferent voice sounded in the pavilion, and the barrier outside the pavilion was untied, Bai Jue turned around without looking at A Qi's expression.

There was a long silence accompanied by the sound of short breaths, and the sound of messy footsteps running out of the pavilion, and there was no more sound.

Bai Jue turned his head and looked at the empty gazebo, A Qi who was alive just now seemed to be just a fantasy.His face was pale, he held the crossbar tightly with his hands, and closed his eyes.

After a hundred years, he couldn't completely eliminate the influence of Qingmu.

He almost hugged that child just now, almost... almost fell short.

You are Bai Jue, not Qing Mu.

With a long sigh, Bai Jue straightened his back and disappeared into the depths of the path.

Shang Gu opened his eyes, and met a pair of evil and bewitching phoenix eyes, which were too close together, which even made her feel a little uncomfortable.She pushed Tian Qi away and yawned: "Why did you come to the Sky Palace, where is A Qi?"

Tian Qi stared, and laughed angrily: "You still remember A Qi, just throwing him in Qingchi Palace like this, this kid is making trouble every day, it's really annoying."

Facing Tian Qi's angry shout, Shang Gu felt a little guilty unconsciously, as if it was extremely irresponsible to leave A Qi in Qingchi Palace, he coughed dryly: "I have something to do in the realm of the sky, Bai Jue go I have left the demon world, and I am waiting for his return."

"He and the monster dragon came back just now. They ran into A Qi in front of the main hall and took A Qi away."

"Oh?" After saying this, Shang Gu immediately became interested: "He saw A Qi, what's his reaction?" As she said that, there was an expectation in her heart that she didn't even know.

Tian Qi looked at her, his eyes twinkled, and he left from the soft couch, picked up the fruit wine on the table and took a sip: "No response, if he really cared about A Qi, he wouldn't have thrown him in Qingchi Palace for a hundred years Don't hear or ask."

Shang Gu frowned, sat up straight cross-legged, tapped his knees lightly, and said calmly: "Tian Qi, what happened 6 years ago? Although you and Bai Jue were not as close as you were to Zhi Yang back then, you wouldn't hate him so much."

Tian Qi knew that he had made a slip of the tongue, and snorted: "He is the true god transformed by immortal power, and my original power is transformed by demon power. Bai Jue has always been noble, so how could he like me? Our relationship was not good back then, but you didn't know that. .”

"Nonsense, the power of fairy and demon is the root of the three realms, regardless of high or low. If he is really like this, how can he help the demon world everywhere now, to be honest!" Shang Gu looked at Tian Qi with serious eyes, with a displeased expression.

Tian Qi raised his eyebrows, he never cared about the relationship between them in the ancient times, but this time he was strangely tight, did he see something...

Before he could speak in the future, fragmentary footsteps sounded outside, and a series of "little gods" couldn't stop calling. A Qi rushed into the room, paused, and saw Shang Gu and Tian Qi, who were at war, plunged into Shang Gu's arms , Howled in the dark.

"Auntie, Auntie, Auntie..." The voice was earth-shattering, and it really hurt my heart.

All the doubts in the ancient times disappeared in an instant, and he hugged him quickly: "Aqi, don't cry, what's the matter, tell aunt."

"What else can it do, Bai Jue must have provoked it." Tian Qi sneered and snorted.

Shang Gu glanced at him fiercely, and knew that Tian Qi probably guessed right, touched the little bun on A Qi's head, with a gentle expression: "Don't be afraid, aunt is here."

A Qi gradually stopped sobbing, raised his head and grabbed the hem of the ancient clothes, and asked in a low voice: "Really?"

"En." Shang Gu nodded, with soft eyes: "I love A Qi the most, and I will definitely do it if I promise."

A Qi nodded, hugged Shang Gu vigorously, buried his head on Shang Gu's shoulder, thought he was tired from crying, and fell asleep after a while.From the beginning to the end, Shang Gu carefully patted his back, pursed his lips lightly, and looked like a serious and loving mother.

Looking at such ancient times, Tian Qi stared slightly in disbelief.

"We can't stay here for a long time. If there is anything, we will ask Bai Jue tonight, and we will leave tomorrow after we solve it." Afraid that the ancients would mention what happened just now, Tian Qi raised his foot and walked outside.

The ancient eyes blinked, and the drooping head suddenly raised, looking at Tian Qi's disappearing back, with a playful expression.

Sure enough, I panicked, Tian Qi, it seems that you have hidden a lot of things.

On the coast of the Western Realm, this is the only entrance for fairy monsters other than Optimus Prime. It has always been a battleground between the two races of fairy monsters. The black sea swamp between the two realms is the land of Rakshasa. This place is shrouded in black mist all year round, miasma is rampant, and no grass grows everywhere. It is also the most barren place among the Three Realms.

It took Fengran two full days to get down from Optimus Prime to get here. When he was thousands of miles away, he could see the soaring evil spirit and bloody smell permeating hundreds of miles away.

After all, Qingchi Palace does not intervene in the dispute between the two worlds. Feng Ran silently recited an invisibility formula, approached the Rakshasa Land, but when he was ten miles away from the general camp, a white light flashed, and a huge spiral formation shone brightly above the tent , trapped Feng Ran in it.

She let out a little gasp, feeling the tight bondage on her body, she became interested, and the red spiritual power shot out from her palm, resisting the formation at the top.

There was such a commotion, the soldiers in the Immortal camp heard the sound, and stood in line with swords and halberds. They didn't see the slightest panic, but they were a little surprised to see a flash of red light in the big formation, but no one was seen.

In the formation formed by His Highness the Second Highness, he can always use spiritual power to hide his body, such a person is rare.They have been stationed in Rakshasa Land for a hundred years, and they are much stronger than ordinary immortal generals. Also curious about the next life.

Could it be that some old fairy came to Raksha Land?

In the formation, the red and white lights faintly intertwined, confronting each other, and it was difficult to distinguish between them for a moment. One person flew out from the big tent of the camp, landed in front of everyone, waved the formation, and said in a deep voice: "Where is the fairy friend, trespassing?" Brake hard?"

"I've seen the Second Highness." The immortal general put away his halberd and saluted before taking a step back.

"I haven't seen you in a hundred years, but you are quite majestic." Seeing that her whereabouts had been revealed, Feng Ran was unambiguous, removed the spiritual power surrounding her body, and appeared in midair.

Jing Jian was dressed in silver-white fairy armor, with firm eyes, a sword in his hand, and lightning-like eyes. Compared with a hundred years ago, he has really changed a lot.

The woman in the fiery red robe in mid-air had light eyebrows and was as mad as before. Jing Jian was a little dazed for a moment, and lost his voice: "Fengran, why are you here?"

"I came here because I have something to do, why, don't invite me in and sit down." Feng Ran fell from the sky and stopped in front of Jingjian.

"You are willing to come here, I am lost." Jing Jian's voice was a little low, and he waved his hands forward: "Let's go, although this place is barren, there are some good things that are not available outside."

The two disappeared in front of the tent, and the surrounding immortal generals only realized that the powerful female immortal was Feng Ranshang from Qingchi Palace, and their hearts jumped for a moment.

In the camp, Jing Jian took off his fairy armor, dressed in a dark blue Confucian uniform, neatly wrapped his black hair with cloth strips behind his head, if it weren't for the fighting spirit that has been fighting all the year round, Feng Ran would have thought that the person in front of him was just a He is just a teacher in the mortal world. Compared with the noble and gentle atmosphere a hundred years ago, Jingjian today seems to have been completely reborn, with the murderous spirit of a general.

The large tent is very plainly furnished, with a few wooden chairs, a wooden table, and a bed, all of which are empty.Fengran walked in, and leaned back on the wooden chair carelessly, feeling quite touched, if she was very excited, she might never remember to see with her own eyes how Jingjian is doing now.

"Last time at Lookout Mountain, did you keep your hands on purpose?" Feng Ran raised her eyebrows as she saw Jing Jian approaching with a cup of strong tea.

Just now, the formation outside the big tent and Jing Jian's spiritual power lead to the same goal by different routes. It should be set up by him. Such spiritual power does not come overnight. Thinking about it, Jing Jian didn't try his best when he was fighting for the sun-burning spear in Mount Wangwang.

"The Sunburning Spear doesn't belong to my little girl." Jing Jian smiled and looked at Feng Ran with deep eyes: "How have you been all these hundred years?"

Fengran's eyelids moved, and she took a sip of tea: "Okay, it's pretty good."

Recalling that a hundred years ago, because of Jing Zhao and the Empress, she was deeply angry with Jing Jian, and even made him so tired that he avoided the Raksha Land for a hundred years and did not return. She felt a little guilty for a while, and said, "Jing Jian, I was the one who spoke out back then, you I shouldn't blame you for what happened to the queen mother, after the battle between the fairy and demon is over, you can go back to the fairyland."

The young man sitting across from him lost his mind for a moment. He seemed to recall the scene outside the Qingchi Palace, and smiled wryly: "Fengran, what happened back then was because the empress went too far. No wonder you. I let go a long time ago and stayed in Luo Shaji has nothing to do with this matter, you don't have to worry about it, I am very happy, we will still be friends when we meet someday."

Hearing this, Feng Ran saw Jing Jian's calm demeanor, and suddenly felt that he was too self-indulgent, and was very embarrassed for a moment, "haha" laughed twice: "It's so good, it's so good."

"Fengran, are you here today for something?" Jing Jian lowered his eyes, refilled Fengran's empty teacup, and said.

"The Queen of Heaven sent you a secret decree. Fengqi was worried that those little phoenixes would be under Optimus Prime, and the place was dangerous, so she entrusted me to go through this." Fengran suddenly remembered that there was still business to do, and took out the phoenix in his sleeve. After digging out, it took a long time to crumple out a crumpled piece of paper and throw it into Jing Jian's hand.

Jing Jian looked at the secret decree crumpled up in front of him, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. He unfolded it, and after a while, frowned slightly, and said to Fengran, "My mother asked me to stand up for battle, Fengran, has the fight between the fairies and demons in the outside world become more serious recently?"

Feng Ran nodded: "I met Chang Qin before I came here, it's true, how about Raksha Land?"

"It's been like this for hundreds of years in Raksha Land, so there's nothing to be nervous about. However, I admire the Qingli Yaojun of the demon fox clan."

Feng Ran raised her eyebrows, something flashed across her eyes, and she said casually, "What do you say? Could it be that you have been stationed here for a hundred years and cherish each other?"

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Jing Jian was a little stunned, and laughed, "I just think this woman is too terrifying. In a hundred years, she has set off thousands of wars in Rakshasa Land, and she will do everything. There are countless clans, if I am afraid I would have given up long ago."

"You did a good job." No matter how tough you are, the faint tiredness between Jing Jian's brows can't fool anyone. Feng Ran fixed her eyes and said, "I know you did a good job. If it weren't for you, the army of the demon world would have died a long time ago." Entering from the Raksha land, the blessed land and fairy residence in the fairy world will be destroyed sooner or later."

In the dispute between the two worlds, there is no saying who is right and who is wrong, it is just a matter of different positions.

But compared to the fairy clan that Shanxi preached, the Yaozu is indeed more aggressive and warlike.

Jing Jian was watched by those long and narrow phoenix eyes, and his gentle voice entered his ears. He seemed to be overwhelmed for a while, and he came back to his senses after a while, and turned his eyes in a bit of embarrassment: "I can't do it alone, if it wasn't for the father who was in the camp There is a barrier in front of the gate in the back, and it is difficult for me to persist until now. Qing Li has a vicious temper, and Rakshasa Land is not a place to stay for a long time. Fengran, it is already difficult for you to send a letter. You should go back to Qingchi Palace, there is apocalypse The True God and the Ancient True God are here, and this catastrophe will not involve you."

"No matter how dangerous the Rakshasa land is, you have been here for a hundred years, not to mention Qingli's methods. I still don't like those methods. I will rest for a day and return to Qingchi Palace tomorrow."

Hearing these words, Jing Jian didn't want to say much, and nodded in agreement, his expression still a bit dignified.

On the other side of the Raksha Land, a soldier of the demon tribe quietly walked into the tent next to the middle tent, and saw the seductive woman in general uniform on the desk concentrating on her thoughts, and whispered: "Qingli demon king, just now there is a message from over there. , Said that Fengran Xianjun from Qingchi Palace came to Raksha Land."

"Oh?" Qing Li frowned and said, "Are you sure?"

"It's absolutely true, Mr. Feng Ranshang touched the big formation set up by Jingjian, and then he showed his body. Fearing that something would change, the spies over there rushed to pass the news over."

"Okay, I understand, don't mention this matter to others, I will personally report to His Majesty." Qing Li waved her hand, and the demon general retreated.

Damn it, after waiting for so long, she finally got rid of Jing Jian, why did Feng Ran come here suddenly?Recalling what Feng Ran and Chang Qin did to her in the third heaven, Qing Li tightly pressed her lips together, and a demonic light suddenly appeared in her eyes.

No matter what, His Majesty can't change his mind. As long as he wins the Raksha Land, Chang Qin can no longer be on top of her head. She will decide this Raksha Land!
On the top of the sky, in the evening, when the setting sun had only the last ray of light left, Tianqi walked through the dense forest with many mountains, and appeared in a vast yellow sand of Yuanling swamp.

There, dozens of stone statues looked up from the sky, desolate and quiet.

Tian Qi stopped slowly, stretched out his hands, the fine sand slipped from between his fingers, scorching hot.

He knew the meaning of what Bai Jue said today.

Over the years, except for that wedding, he has never set foot here.

What Bai Jue can't face is A Qi, and what he can't face are these dozens of empty, lifeless stone statues.

Those ancient gods who were buried under his demon power.

In ancient times, I was guilty, but you forgot.

What I am glad is not that you have forgotten the memory of Houchi, but that you have forgotten the 300 years before the catastrophe of chaos.
