Chapter 579: The wind will rise during the sacrifice to the moon, and the sparks will start a prairie fire.(1/3)
The gods have dreams, dance as sacrifices, cut paper and paint all living beings.
The good ones are delighted by the gods, and they are blessed with everlasting blessings; the bad ones have evil spirits, and are destroyed by a single thought.
This is the ritual dance.
At this moment, as the old man in Twin Peaks perished in the backlash, all the dancing butterflies produced by this failed sacrificial dance also disappeared with him.
After these dancing butterflies devoured his flesh and blood, they melted into the world without leaving a trace, allowing all living beings to become clear.
And for the sentient beings in the Weiyang Mountains, being awake...may not be a kind of happiness.
A life that is not arranged may bring more confusion.
Looking around, starting from the city at the foot of the mountain, this confusion is like a storm sweeping across, submerging the city.
In the city, both laymen and monks were silent for a moment of clarity.
Some couples, some friends, some relatives, some masters and apprentices, they look at each other, their expressions are complicated instead of confused, they are strangers and yet familiar to each other.
What's strange is that we didn't know each other before, and we were given roles to be together. What's familiar is that this memory has not disappeared, and what's confusing is where we should go after we wake up.
The city is like this, the sect is like this, and every family is like this. The storm swept through the entire Weiyang Mountains and enveloped everything.
Some people choose to leave and never return to this place that makes them feel frightened and absurd.
Most of them are outsiders.
But in fact, the vast majority of sentient beings in the Weiyang Mountains have been here since they were born, and their destiny was changed in their infancy.
Even going back to the present day, their ancestors have been like this for generations.
They are used to their lives being arranged and everything being on a set track. This habit has even become instinctive, because before they wake up, they don't know the truth at all.
In their understanding, heaven and earth have not changed, and life is normal.
It's like being locked in a cage. When the cage is opened one day, they...will still choose to stay in the cage.
Even in their minds, in order to strengthen their thoughts, they will have some doubts, questioning whether this so-called awakening from a dream is a scam.
This was used to prove that he was awake from beginning to end.
This is a kind of happiness and a kind of sadness.
Xu Qing was silent.
At this moment, with the help of the blue ice coffin where the captain lived in his previous life, and the power of the scepter inside, his spiritual thoughts covered the entire Weiyang Mountains.
This allowed him to clearly perceive the thoughts coming from all living beings.
In the end, Xu Qing and the captain chose to leave.
Before leaving, the captain also felt all this and sighed.
"These living beings who have been here since they were born and whose ancestors have lived here for generations, even if they wake up from the dream, they are still the same as in the dream."
"They will continue to live here the same as before, no changes."
"Little Ah Qing, let's go... Maybe for them, our appearance is a disturbance."
The captain shook his head, put away his ice coffin, and walked toward the sky. After a few steps, he paused and turned to look at Xu Qing.
Xu Qing took a deep breath, withdrew his senses, and walked towards the captain.
The two left silently in the sky, until outside the Yin Yang Huajian Sect, their footsteps stopped.
Wu Jianwu, there.
At this moment, the Yin Yang Hua Jian Sect is no longer alive. The mountain collapsed, the spiritual pool is also filthy in the dust, and most of the disciples of the sect have left after waking up.
Only the monk who was born here sat silently on the broken rocks, his thoughts in confusion.
Wu Jianwu's figure stood blankly at the foot of the mountain, and in front of him was Yun Xiazi, who was walking away.
The sunset sky carries the meaning of the end, giving people a sense of depression, just like his heart at this moment, and Yun Xiazi's complexity at this moment.
Wu Jianwu stared blankly at Yun Xiazi's figure, feeling speechless in his heart.
After feeling the drastic changes happening here, he ran back here immediately and saw the collapse of the mountain, the chaos around him, and Yun Xiazi.
He once recited a poem, but the other person seemed not to understand and did not even look at him from beginning to end.
This made Wu Jianwu feel bitter. Looking at the other party's back, he suddenly spoke loudly.
"It's dark and the wind is blowing the clouds, but it's light and it's raining. I have an umbrella!"
Wu Jianwu's voice spread to heaven and earth and fell in Yun Xia Zi's ears, but Yun Xia Zi's footsteps did not pause or look back, and eventually disappeared without a trace.
Wu Jianwu was so lost that he took a few steps back and sat aside.
Xu Qing and the captain came silently. Seeing Wu Jianwu's expression of sadness, Xu Qing raised his hand and gave Wu Jianwu a bottle of wine. He felt that Wu Jianwu at this moment probably wanted to drink.
Wu Jianwu took it tremblingly. After taking a big sip, his eyes turned red and he murmured.
"She doesn't understand at all, it's all lies!"
The captain sighed, patted Wu Jianwu on the shoulder, and said nothing more.
After a while, as Wu Jianwu's mood recovered a little, the group of them left the place, but Wu Jianwu was silent all the way.
On the way, the captain found Ning Yan hiding in a crack in the ground and picked him up.
Ning Yan was frightened. The previous scene here made him feel extremely dangerous. So after seeing Xu Qing and others, he was also excited. Then he glared at Wu Jianwu and was about to speak, but found that Wu Jianwu's mood was not right.
Ning Yan was surprised and wanted to ask, but he also knew that it was not the right moment, so he suppressed his curiosity in his heart.
In this way, the group of them left the Weiyang Mountains. As the captain took out the artificial sun, their figures flickered inside and disappeared into the horizon.
Time passed and seven days passed quickly.
What happened in the Weiyang Mountains gradually spread from the mouths of those who left. At the same time, the death of Ji Wu also attracted the attention of all the Yin Yang Huajian Sect.
During these seven days, many powerful men from the Yin Yang Huajian Sect, after hearing about this incident, came over with the help of their disciples to check it out.
Finally, a wanted order from the Yin Yang Huajian Sect spread throughout the entire Moon Festival area.
The blasphemers headed by Wei Yangzi and Tian Qingzi are wanted.
If anyone provides clues, they will gain the friendship of the Yin Yang Huajian Sect. If someone brings their head and soul, the Yin Yang Huajian Sect will reward them with a solution to the problem.
As soon as this wanted order came out, the entire Moon Festival area was shaken. On the one hand, it was a big deal, and on the other hand, it was the solution to the problem.
This elixir has only one function, which is to relieve the pain caused by the curse.
For monks in the Moon Sacrifice Domain, the Red Moon Curse in their bodies will gradually bring extreme pain to their bodies and souls as their cultivation grows and time passes.
The torture caused by this kind of pain is something that no monk wants to bear, and the only thing that can alleviate this pain is the Difficulty Solving Pill.
It's just that there are too few elixirs, and there are many living beings who need them, so they are extremely precious. You can't buy them with spiritual stones. Any one of them is often a rare commodity.
For example, the ancestors of the alliance between the two races planned to capture Xu Qing alive and send him to the temple in exchange for the Solving Pill.
From this we can imagine how tempting this wanted person is.
Xu Qing, the captain and others who were wanted at the moment had already left the Weiyang Mountains and appeared near the west.
Here, the captain wants to avoid the limelight while preparing for another event.
Xu Qing doesn't plan to follow, he has his own matters to deal with.
He always remembered that there were more than 100,000 cursed humans in the Firefly City over Duanmuzang, and he wanted to help them resolve the curse.
But to undo this curse, he needs to conduct a lot of research and experiments, which requires a relatively stable environment and a certain amount of time.
With the captain's out-of-touch personality, it's obviously not suitable to be with him.
At the same time, there was a place that Xu Qing also planned to visit.
So Xu Qing informed the captain of this idea.
"Studying curses?" The captain's eyes lit up when he heard this. After taking out a peach and taking a bite, the light in his eyes became even stronger.
"Haha, little Aqing, your idea was originally the eighth major event I prepared. If you can have some experience in advance, we can save a lot of time in the follow-up matters."
"That's fine!" The captain showed determination on his face, handed Xu Qing an apple, put his arms around his neck, and spoke in a low voice.
"Little Aqing, if you go out by yourself, remember to be careful not to be found by the Yin Yang Huajian Sect. I am going to do a small thing first, which will probably take more than half a year."
"How small?" Xu Qing glanced at the captain.
"Haha, it's a very, very small thing." The captain raised his hand, touched his thumb and index finger, and then separated them a little, using this as a metaphor for what he wanted to do.
"Then take care." Xu Qing smiled and didn't ask any more questions.
The captain laughed and looked up at the distant world.
"Okay, let's separate here and meet up at the Kusheng Mountains in half a year. Let me tell you, little Ah Qing, don't be late this time. It's best if you can arrive early. In half a year, senior brother will take you to join a special awesome team.
Awesome organization!"
"That's an important step in our fight against Hongyue!"
A strange light appeared in Xu Qing's eyes. The first time he heard about the place name Kusheng Mountain was from Duanmu Zang, who told him that there was a way to join the Niyue Palace there.
As for the specifics, Xu Qing didn't know, and the place he originally planned to go also included the Kusheng Mountains.
To be continued...
