In front of the Lingxiao Palace.

The meeting of the gods was still going on, and Bai Yujun walked out of the palace holding the decree and appointment documents in his hands.

When I crossed the threshold, I paused slightly.

Looking back, I looked at the golden plaque hanging in the palace above my head, and then at the civil and military figures at the end of the two columns standing outside the palace. I had just walked to the highest point of power in the world. After walking for a thousand years, I had to go to the most remote and farthest place in the blink of an eye.

Beitianmen, a dark and cold place where the wind and snow howl.

It's called guarding, but it's actually under house arrest.

The dark and cold land outside the door, where the cold pierces the soul, the wind corrodes the bones, and the desperation that gods, demons and ghosts cannot cross, is actually a broken world after the ancient war, where endless years breed strange monsters and infest the Tianmen.

Bai Yujun always remembers it.

What the old turtle said.

Don't say anything about being able to cross the dark and cold land.

Ordinary immortals and gods can only stand within the scope of the Tianmen, and they will suffer pain and danger if they step out. Only divine beasts can guard the door with their strong bodies, such as the Old Xuan Turtle, which relies on the super defensive power of its shell to guard the door.

And myself...

Looking down at the fairy armor on his body, he saw that it was of no use.

What he relies on is the armored dragon scales all over his body.

shrugged.

If the gods knew that our dragon Bai was not afraid of the wind and snow in the dark and cold land, they would probably vomit three liters of blood.

Standing at the highest point of the heaven, the highest point in the world, Lingxiao Palace overlooks all living beings. From here, you can see the divine light of the distant Kunlun Mountains. The mountains and rivers are like maps, and above your head is the blue sky full of stars. It seems like you can pick the stars with your hands. I have been here for a long time.

, will it also be boring?

Holding the imperial edict in hand, he walked step by step towards the edge of the square, where there were stairs going down.

The golden and jade steps are set up above the auspicious clouds. When you step on them, it feels like you are stepping on the water. The jade surface of the steps ripples, which is very magical.

Looking out from the Lingxiao Palace.

You can see the lonely figure walking to the end of the square and disappearing step by step...

First, go back to your little room.

The mailbox is empty.

I put away the bedding and toiletries, put away the pajamas in the cabinet, took off the picture frames hanging on the wall, and after thinking about it, I tore off the window grilles I cut on New Year's Eve one year, and pulled off the door number. I will probably never come back to live here again.

Take them all away.

Take one last look and gently open the door.

Looking out from the room, the sunlight at the door is dazzling, the slender figure hesitates in the warm light, sighs, closes the door, and the room becomes much darker...

In the main hall of the female guard camp, I found the general who was always writing non-stop.

"See you, General. Thank you for your care over the years."

This time the table is much shorter, so there is no need to hang it up to say hello.

The heroic general Mobi paused.

a long time.

"well……"

Put down the brush, stood up, rummaged through the drawers, brought out a wooden box and put it on the table.

"The war is tense and everyone is away fighting. I have asked me to prepare fire-attribute elixirs that I can find for you. It is bitterly cold in Beitianmen. Taking the elixirs will make you feel better. If there are not enough, we will collect them and send them to you."

"..."

It would be a lie to say that I am not impressed.

Anyone with any conscience will be moved by this friendship.

Colleagues of more than a thousand years, who have lived together in Yaochi for many years, and who may never see each other again in the future, lament that they have become more and more sentimental recently, and hope that they can escape the coming storm.

"Yujun thanks you all and will come back to see you if you have the chance."

"Well, next year, the female guard battalion will be transferred back to the Kunlun Mountain Shrine to be stationed. I always feel that... there will be huge changes. I don't understand either. In short, you should take care of yourself."

The general seemed to want to tell Bai Yujun something, but he couldn't say it directly.

Moubai's heart felt warm. The one or two words he could mention at this time were all true feelings. Changes can only be understood but not expressed in words.

"Yujun understands, General, don't worry."

Hearing this, the general nodded.

"Go, don't waste time, say hello to Old Xuan Turtle for me."

"Yes, farewell."

He clasped his fists and said goodbye, turned around and left the hall.

It was quiet for a long time before the sound of writing sounded again...

Go to the supplies department to get new armor.

After all, he is also the new guard of Beitianmen, guarding one of the four gates. The armor and official robes are indispensable as a status symbol. Although the bitter cold is equivalent to confinement, he is still nominally at the level of a heavenly king. According to the laws of heaven, his official position is quite high. New Immortal

A, change to a new streamer and make the silk more colorful. You can definitely bluff people when you go out.

Generally speaking, the style is more complicated and more exquisite, the ceremonial function is more important, especially the female fairy armor is more beautiful.

At present, it has reached the pinnacle of the fairy armor style.

Be prepared.

Follow the fairy road between the cloud-suspended mountains and go straight to the north, the North Gate of Heaven.

In the beginning, there will still be many Xian'e Heavenly Soldiers traveling together.

Keep walking and walking...

There are fewer and fewer immortals accompanying us, and there are not even a few strong men sweeping the place. It is getting colder and quieter, with no birds and no swimming fish, and the leaves of the immortal grass and trees are withered, like a backyard that has been sealed for many years.

"Old Turtle has been guarding for so many years, he is worthy of being a black turtle."

The sky is getting darker and darker gradually.

It's not that it's dark, but that Beitianmen is in darkness all year round, and it naturally gets darker as we get closer.

…

Beitianmen.

The tall ancient archway is frozen all year round.

The corners of the eaves are covered with ice, the ice is covered with snow, the ground is covered with crystal-like transparent ice crystals, like clusters of grass and giant trees, and various stone sculptures are wrapped in ice. As for the road, it is covered with white snow, which can only occasionally be seen unless there is a strong wind.

Exposed masonry floor.

Creak... creak...

The sound of walking trampling on the snow came from far to near, and the dim palace lanterns on the roadside reflected the thin figures.

As we approached Beitianmen, the light became dim and we could only tell where there was white snow.

Bai Yujun's shoulder armor and helmet are covered with snow, his eyebrows are covered with crystal white frost, and the shawl fluttering around his shoulders and behind him emits brilliant fluorescence.

Walk through the tall archway-style Tianmen.

Look back.

The three characters "Nantianmen" on the plaque are sealed in ice.

In front of the door are the steps going down, which are very wide, and beyond that is the dark and cold land.

"Girl, we meet again~"

A huge black shadow made a sound under the steps outside Tianmen, the sound was like muffled thunder.

Bai Yujun shrugged.

"Yes, we meet again. Congratulations on your escape from this sea of ​​suffering and freedom in the world. Unexpectedly, I took over your position. Look, this armor is my benefit."

Walk to the bottom of the steps and look up at the giant black turtle.

"Actually, the outside world is a sea of ​​suffering. Here, being quiet and undisturbed is the real freedom."

The old turtle said something about his feelings, and he felt like he had seen through the world of mortals and understood the true meaning.

The giant black turtle changes...

Clattering sound.

A pile of crushed ice was left on the spot.

In front of Bai Yujun, there was an old man with a hunchback, bald head and long beard.

The turtle tribe seems to have some kind of obsession with hunchbacks, and those two mustaches that are almost touching the floor. This image is perfect with the bald head, small eyes and big rosacea, and it is true that the ancient gods can see through the illusion and have no skin.
To be continued...
