Beyond the Divine States

The dark green moss covered the stones around the pond, and the old voice of the tortoise stirred up a circle of ripples, all the way to Ning Changjiu's and Si Ming's feet.

"Dinghai spirit?" Ning long puzzled, asked: "what is the spirit?"

Zhenhai spirit turtle lies on Piaoping, a beam of light falls on its back. The dense entangled lines on its shell are like ancient fossils. The cangpi scale between its neck becomes folds with the action of raising his head. On both sides of the conical head, the turbid pupils gradually become clear under the washing of blink membrane.

Zhenhai Linggui looked at them, his eyes fell on Siming and said, "you are very powerful."

Siming nodded haughtily: "well, your breath is not weak."

The spirit turtle of Zhenhai took a look at Ning Changjiu and said, "this boy should be your servant, right?"

Siming was silent for a moment and said with a smile, "well, he's my waiter."

It's better to keep silent for a long time.

Zhenhai Linggui stared at Siming and asked, "where are you from?"

Siming said: "you wake up at the beginning, and you don't know how to stop. The evil spirit here is almost to the sky. It's hard to find it or not."

Detective Zhenhai Linggui looks at his reflection in the pool. He is silent for a moment and takes back the evil spirit.

"Will they notice?" Asked the tortoise.

"They?" Siming asked, "do you mean the kingdom of God?"

The tortoise nodded and said in a stiff voice, "well, they are our enemies."

Simang thought about it and said, "I'm afraid it has been detected, but the demon is not evil, and the kingdom of God will not punish it for no reason."

The tortoise was silent for a while. He looked up again, looked at the leaves above and said, "it seems that the rules of heaven have been reestablished again..."

Simang said: "since the death of the six gods in Taichu, the rules of the way of heaven have never changed. How can we rebuild them?"

"Well..." the tortoise didn't retort, saying: "the sage is going to die, and it's hard to have a second savior in the world. It seems that no one will be able to change the fate of the world from now on. "

Siming asked, "what's the end?"

"Die." The tortoise said slowly, "the world is dying out. It's like a person getting old and going to die. This is the result of knowing, but in the process of life, few people will fight against death. "

"Because it doesn't make sense." Said Siming. Death is bound to come, which is well known in the world. The emperors who asked for immortals and medicine have never come to a good end.

The tortoise said: "maybe, this is also a helpless ending for the world."

Ning long recognized the clue in the words and asked, "do you mean that the world is accelerating its destruction?"

The tortoise thought to himself that a slave is a slave. He didn't know such well-known things. It said slowly: "the gods who protect the world have already died. Those outer gods are demons who want to usurp the spiritual things of the world. This is what the six gods of the Taichu Dynasty were, and now they are..."

"Shut up Si Ming yelled to stop.

If you let it go on, the thunder will come down and directly split its tortoise shell. What about the big demon in wudaojing? Under the great power of heaven, we still can only end up with the death of both the body and the spirit.

The tortoise was not interested in death, but since he was kind, he didn't say much.

Ning long nudged Siming.

Simang asked, "what is the spirit thing you mentioned earlier?"

The tortoise said, "the Pearl of the sea."

"Dinghaizhu?" Simang had never heard of it.

The tortoise said: "this is the Pearl of the crown of the Dragon King of Beiming. The sage went to Beiming and went over the river and sea. The Dragon hall was broken, the Shanhai was ashes, and ten thousand dragons fled to the other four oceans. The Kun people even escaped from the sea. The Dragon King of Beiming was nailed to death by the sage. The white bones surrounded the old peak at the bottom of the sea and turned into mountains. The prison of the sea demon, which had been locked for a thousand years, was also broken. The great demon, who had been oppressed by the Dragon prisoners for a thousand years, poured out of the nest. The sage took the trouble to enlighten them one by one and went to the immortal court with them. "

Tortoise tells the history of the past, just like a fresh history book.

Ning long asked: "you were also the demon in the sea prison?"

The tortoise said, "no, I used to be a golden turtle in a temple by the sea

Ning long silence for a moment, said: "all living beings are suffering."

Siming didn't rush to ask about Ding Haizhu, but let the turtle continue to talk.

When the tortoise woke up from his dream, he was also happy to recall the past: "at the beginning, the lock was cut off, the dragon people were imprisoned, the saints were on the cliff platform, their white clothes were floating, and there were thousands of sea soldiers alone. I still remember the picture very well... Then there was the catastrophe for decades, the ancient gods oppressed the human world for thousands of years, the demons and gods were everywhere, and the people and Demons finally United, To those invincible things in the past. "

"Unfortunately, the kingdom of God is too strong." Siming sighed to comfort him.

The tortoise sighed. He looked around his little pond and said, "yes, five hundred years later... The sea is gone. What's the use of sea pearl? What else can I do? "

Si Ming took a look at Ning long, and wanted to say nothing.

The tortoise said, "do you want to kill me for treasure?"

Siming shook his head and said, "I'll fight with you for at least one day and one night. I don't have that spare time."

"A day and a night? You are strong, but you are strong. " The tortoise asked slowly, "where are you going?"

Simang said bluntly: "ten thousand demon city."

"Ten thousand demon city?" The tortoise's voice changed. He asked, "where is that?"

Ning Changchang said: "now the gathering place of monsters is sheltered by the shadow of saints."

Siming looked at Ning Changjiu and said faintly, "I'm talking to this big demon. How can you interrupt me?"

Ning long vomited a tone, suppressed the mood in the heart, said with a smile: "it is I arrogate."

Siming smile, a little proud

.

"How far is Wanyao city from here?" Asked the tortoise.

"There's a million miles left." Si Ming Dao.

The tortoise then asked, "where were all the remaining monsters?"

"Si Ming said:" should be so, there may be your old friend

"If there is an old friend..." after the tortoise thought slowly, he said, "if you go to Wanyao city and see a nine head green lion, can you give me something?"

"Nine green lions?" Simang had a vague impression.

The tortoise said, "that's my best friend in the past. At the beginning, we practiced ten thousand demon Jue together. What I practiced swallowed the sea, and what he practiced devoured the devil."

Simang said, "why can't you go yourself?"

The tortoise said: "because I have built the ten thousand demon formula... The ten thousand demon formula is powerful, but it makes the demon obey the nature and insurmountable. For example, I can't fly in the clouds, I can only do it on land and sea. I'm afraid it's hard for me to go to the ten thousand demon city."

Ning Changchang is a little interested in the ten thousand demon city. The power of the magic formula with such a big side effect is appalling.

Siming asked, "what do you want to convey?"

The tortoise stretched out its claws, took out a faded copper bell from the tortoise shell, and said, "this is it."

Siming looked at Yanning for a long time, and ordered: "little slave, go and get it."

I'd rather take a deep breath for a long time, while keeping accounts in my heart, I went to get the bell. When he took the bell, Ning was very careful for a long time, and simang specially assigned a spirit to protect him.

The tortoise didn't have any desire to attack. After passing the bell, it closed its eyes and seemed to be tired.

Ning took the bell for a long time. He looked at it and found that the bell had been "plucked" and could not be rung.

The tortoise explained: "at the beginning, the green lion was trapped and tied a bell around his neck. It took me several days to break the tongue of the bell, so that he would not make a sound when he ran away... Alas, all in all, it's old."

Siming looked at Ning Changchang and said, "it's much better than your hiding your ears and stealing bells."

Ning long awkwardly smile, want to marry in the end and what did you say?

Rather long holding the bell, looking at the old turtle, simple asked: "for you to send this thing, what reward?"

Simang also wanted to ask this question. After all, a five way demon had many amazing magic weapons hidden in it. However, due to her identity, she was inconvenient to ask questions, but after Ning had been working for a long time, she said coldly: "vulgar."

The tortoise thought about it and said, "I have nothing else but dinghaizhu. After my death, this dinghaizhu will be given to you."

Ning looked at the old turtle for a long time and said in disbelief, "are you five big demons or a turtle? I'm not sure who will die first."

The tortoise said, "although the tortoise lives long, it's still time to finish. I'm running out of time. When the soul returns to heaven, I'll come back here. You'll come to find me."

"Back here?" Ning Changjiu asked, "where are you going?"

The tortoise said, "find a temple to live in and go back to work."

Siming took a look at Ning Changchang and nodded gently to leave.

It's a place full of evil spirit. After staying for a long time, it will always attract the gods to peep. She doesn't want to be exposed to the gods too much.

Ning long but obviously not very satisfied.

It's supposed to be an opportunity when five big demons wake up. At this moment, not only did they get nothing, they were also used as messengers

Simang saw through his mind and sneered, "what's the matter? Do you want to grab it and stew it? "

"My Lord is joking." Ning long helpless way.

Then he waved goodbye to the old turtle behind him.

Siming and Ning left for a long time.

The old turtle was still in the sun.

Ning played with the bell in his hand for a long time and said, "I don't know if this bell will have a magical effect."

Simang said faintly: "easy chance is not necessarily a good thing. You must know that our life is likely to follow a certain path. There is no idle chess. It can be foreshadowing everywhere."

"It's true." Ning long while saying, while putting away the bell, said: "by the way, before the divine officer's bossy, it seems to be very prestige."

Siming'e frowned and said, "it's just acting. Why are you so careful... Well, what do you want to do?"

Ning long took her by the wrist and took her to a small forest.

Birds in the forest fly.

When they came out of the forest, Siming was much more docile, but there was always a rebellious temperament in bingmou.

"Drive on." Ning Changjiu said.

There were some grievances in simang's cold voice, and the tone was long: "it's... Master."

Siming stepped on the virtual sword and carried people.

In the twinkling of an eye, it was near dusk, and the dusk began to sink.

Ning Changjiu and her fall from the sword.

They stood at the top of a lonely peak.

In the twilight, the peak stones shine in the setting sun, and their skin is also dyed with a touch of gold.

Si Ming took the lead on the lonely peak, looked at the rivers from afar, with a bearing.

The surging river twists and turns among the peaks and flows to the north.

"Where to rest tonight?" Asked Siming.

After a long time of controlling the sword, they could only see the barren mountains, but did not find the scene of the city tower.

Ning Changchang said: "the mountains here stretch, I don't know 100000 million. It's hard to find a small town with bullets."

Si Ming said: "it's not bad to drink the moon as food and eat the wind and dew. Don't worry, I'm not so delicate, and you don't pretend to be a hypocrite. "

Ning Changhao said, "I heard that some women can get some pleasure when they are punished. Aren't you one of them?"

In his heart, Siming felt a little red and said angrily, "what nonsense! I'm a god

Ning Changchang said: "you are not my opponent, but why do you always irritate me with words these days? I can't help thinking

"It's not because you are too hateful!" Siming said coldly, turning slightly to the setting sun instead of looking at him.

"I see." Ning has not been angry for a long time.

He bent down and looked at the surging river between the peaks, and said, "you've worked hard all day. Let me come at night."

"What do you want to do?" Si Ming immediately turned back and was on guard.

"Don't think about it." Ning long said a word, then jumped down the peak, across the sea of clouds, came to a bamboo forest surrounded by cold fog, he used his finger as a sword, cut several bamboo, and tied it with flexible vines.

Simang slowly fell behind him and asked, "what are you doing?"

Ning Changjiu said: "the river flows northward, and we just go northward. It's the same way."

Simang snorted coldly: "you really have leisure."

"Hateful people always have something worthy of praise." Ning long said with a smile.

Simang said, "it's a waste of time."

Ning Changchang said: "the river is fast, not much slower than our sword."

As he spoke, Ning Changjiu had neatly tied up a bamboo raft. The raft was very wide, just for the commander to lie down.

"Come on up." Ning Changjiu said.

Si Ming Wei hesitated and fell on the bamboo raft.

This is her first time on a bamboo raft.

The river holds up the bamboo raft steadily. The current is within reach, and the spray splashes gently on the body, with the expected coolness. Ning sits in the front for a long time to adjust the direction of the raft to prevent it from overturning or hitting the rocks. Siming sits down with her knees crossed behind. She stretches her fingers into the water. Her thin, fritillary fingernails touch the water. The high-speed water flows between her fingers. The feeling of tightness is pleasant.

The river took them across the winding river between the peaks and headed for the distance.

The peaks swept by.

Siming looked up and saw that the dangerous peak was towering. He could not see the end at a glance, but the night sky was clear and the stars were clear. It seemed that he was closer to himself.

"How can I sleep when the waves of anger are rolling and stirring people's dreams?" Simang's words expressed his dissatisfaction flatly.

Ning Changchang said, "it's not hard for you to get rid of the noise and forget the things." Simang said: "it's just a false peace. Sitting in the mind of heaven and earth and forgetting God is the real peace of mind."

Ning long accustomed to her difficult to serve, lazy to distinguish her words, just said: "whatever you want."

Simang gave a smile and did not pursue it.

The moon rises from the East, the water surface is like silver, and it flows to the depth of the mountains. She sits cross legged, her silver hair blows and dances, her robe is the wind, and her brow weariness turns into a lazy smile in the breeze. She suddenly raises her sleeve, cuts off a piece of bamboo on the side cliff, holds it on her fingertips, and clasps it with her fingers. Where she falls, the Xiao hole is in order.

Siming holds a bamboo flute and sticks it to his lips. The sound of the flute floats out of his fingers. It is like a fairy riding a crane and a lady going to an empty building alone. The mistiness and resentment are different.

Ning long listened to the sound of Xiao, calm, can't help recalling the time when liantian town and Lu married boating.

But simang's Xiao sound is full of appeal. Ning Changjiu suddenly finds that in his memory, Lu's face has changed into simang's beautiful silver hair and ice eyes.

He returned to himself, and with a smile he abandoned them.

Xiao sound across the river Suizhou, clouds in the sky slowly open, the stars sprinkle on their clothes.

The raft came to the rapidest river.

The river under the bamboo raft arched abruptly.

An evil dragon raised its head from under the water. Its two fins were wide, its mouth was bloody, and its teeth were sharp. It roared angrily and rushed to the raft.

Ning long silent, vertical finger push out a sword.

A line of white light passed from top to bottom.

The howling turned to shrill, and the evil dragon was cut in two, like two whips whipping toward the water. Blood mist dispersed in the wind.

From the beginning to the end, Siming closed his eyes and fondled the flute. He gradually became grand with the natural sound of heaven and earth, as if the sound did not come from the flute, but came from thousands of valleys and mountains.

After a long time, the sound of Xiao stopped gradually.

Simang threw the flute into the water.

Ning Changchang said: "this song should be sung for thousands of years. It's a pity to discard it like this."

"It's not a pity to remember this good night," he said

Ning long listened to her words and laughed softly, but he drew a line on the boat with his sword.

Siming asked, "what is this for?"

Ning Changchang said, "I feel sorry, so I'll carve a mark. If I revisit here later, I can find this bamboo flute."

Siming looked at the notch on the boat and said with a cool smile, "act crazy and sell stupid."

Ning Changjiu asked: "how do you feel about what you have seen and heard in the world for nearly a year?"

Simang said, "it's totally different from what I saw when I was sitting on the throne."

Ning Changjiu asked, "what did you see when you were in the throne?"

Simang said, "it's full of dust."

Ning Changjiu said: "it has always been so. The gods of this world call it the world, and the people call it the world."

Simang thought deeply and said, "anyway, one day I will return to my kingdom of God."

Ning long nodded gently and said, "everything depends on your determination."

Siming looked at the sky and said, "goodbye in the future. We should be looking at each other across the night sky."

Ning long light smile, he whispered: "that time all rely on the Secretary girl protection."

"I'll take care of my marriage, Xiaoling. You'll be lucky." Siming's words are as cold as ever.

She sat alone, looking at the mountains and water flying by. They were fleeting in her sight. If she didn't look carefully, they would be just black shadows. But somehow, simang suddenly felt that the world accepted me.

She shook her head gently.

Ning Changjiu said: "by the way, if you find your kingdom is not in the future, you can come to me."

"What's the use of looking for you?" Asked simang.

Ning Changchang said, "I have a kingdom of God, don't I? Although it's a bit shabby, it's a country at least, and the position of the divine officer will always be reserved for you. How about that? "

"Who is rare?" Simang coldly responded.

She listened to Ning's words for a long time, but she didn't hear the words in his heart.

The raft went down the river.

The stars are turning overhead.

When Ning Changjiu turns back again, Siming is already on the raft. The night wind and water beat her face, but she can't wake up.

Sitting in my mind, I forget myself.

Ning long watched for a while, her quiet, unreal beauty, the peaks are fading out of sight, only the most beautiful pair, he watched for a long time, distracted for a long time.

He sat alone at the head of the boat all night.

Simanyou wakes up. He is white in the East, and the boat has passed the mountains.

She stretches her body lazily, looks at Ning Changjiu's eyes, and says: "it's hard."

Ning long smile.

They got off the bamboo raft and went further with it.

The mountains and rivers have passed, and the world is open and prosperous. They are not in a hurry. Instead, they enter several cities and have a leisurely walk.

This time, Siming thought about his hard work of sailing at night. Instead of adding up his cold words, he talked and laughed quietly, just like his old friend for many years.

Ning long hands together sleeve, and she walked in the street.

Simang took a fancy to many rare things in the world, but he didn't buy them. Because she knows that she will leave sooner or later, and these big or small obstacles will be lost sooner or later. It's better not to leave at first.

It's near noon.

Simang suddenly asked curiously, "don't you feel guilty if you spend all your money marrying Lu?"

Ning Changjiu asked, "why do you feel guilty?"

Simang sighed, feeling that he was more impersonal than himself.

She was about to make another sarcastic remark when she passed by a mysterious shop. She glanced at it and saw that there were many fox tails hanging in it. Siming's face softened a lot at once, and the soft language called Ning Changchang, the master, and took him away from the street.

After dinner, they continued on their way“ It seems that the heart of your sword is clear again. " Ning long said. After last night, simang had a wonderful insight, and his realm was even higher. Simang said: "there is still a long way to go from the peak, which is not enough for Tao." But although her words were cold, as if there was nothing to be proud of, the sword under her body was a little faster, showing her strength to Ning for a long time. In the next million mile trek, they did not encounter any real difficulties and dangers. Even if they met by chance, they were just bandits and mountain bandits. It's not surprising that they belonged to monsters and demons. It's not as destructive as their quarrels. In this way, Ning long stood behind Siming, with her sword flying in the air, watching the sunrise and sunset several times. Before long, the towering ten thousand demon city will reveal its huge and mysterious face before their eyes.
