Chapter 4 Shock

.

In the early morning, the rain finally stopped.

The water droplets on the tree were crystal clear, quietly sliding down from the edge of the leaves, falling down. Because of the wind, it drew a beautiful arc in the air and hit Zhang Xiaofan's face.

The cold coldness awakened Zhang Xiaofan from his dream. He opened his eyes and subconsciously shouted: "Master..." But there was no one in the world, only Lin Jingyu lying beside him, and his dream was in full swing.

It seems like a dream.

But the broken grass temple in the distance and the sleeping playmates beside him told him that all this was true.

He thought for a while, shook his head, walked to Lin Jingyu, pushed hard, Lin Jingyu muttered a few words, woke up slowly, rubbed his eyes, and before he could speak, he felt a chill coming and he couldn't help but hit Ha Qiu.

He opened his eyes and saw that he and Zhang Xiaofan were soaked all over, lying under a pine tree in the wild. He couldn't help but be stunned and said, "Aren't I sleeping at home? Why did I get here?"

Zhang Xiaofan shrugged and said, "I don't know either, but I'm very cold, so I'd better go back soon."

Lin Jingyu had all kinds of questions in his mind, but it was indeed cold. He nodded immediately and got up and ran to the village with Zhang Xiaofan.

Before they arrived in front of the village, they realized something was wrong. Usually, the villagers had already gotten up at this time, but today it was extremely quiet, with no one even seeing a figure. And with the morning breeze blowing, there was a faint smell of blood.

They looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes. At the same time, they accelerated their pace and ran towards the village. Not long after, the two of them arrived at the entrance of the village and looked in from the main road at the entrance of the village. They saw more than 40 families in Caomiao Village, more than 200 people, large and small, men and women, lying on the open space, their bodies were stiff, and they became corpses, blood flowing into rivers, flies flying around, and bloody smell came to their faces.

Lin Jingyu and Zhang Xiaofan suddenly saw this terrifying scene. In frightened, he screamed and fainted.

※※※

I don’t know how long it took, but Zhang Xiaofan suddenly woke up, sat up suddenly, gasped and his hands trembled slightly. When he fell asleep, his mind was full of vicious ghosts, blood and bones, and nightmares were filled with continuous waves.

He calmed down and looked around and saw that this was an ordinary wing room with two small windows. The decorations in the room were simple and clean, with only a few pine tables and chairs, and a kettle and cups on it.

Half of the room was a large kang connected together with four beds. In addition to whom he was lying now, the bedding next to him was also a bit messy, as if he had just been slept with someone. As for the other two, the quilts were neatly folded and meticulously.

On the wall directly above the four beds, there is a banner with a large letter on it:

road!

It looks like an ordinary guest room in an inn, or a room where several disciples live together in one room.

Zhang Xiaofan sat for a while, and suddenly a thought arose in his heart: Maybe everything last night was a nightmare, right? Maybe I have been sleeping here all the time? Maybe when I walked out of this room, my mother would smile and scold him as usual: "You little lazy!"

He slowly got out of bed, put on his shoes, and walked towards the door step by step.

The door was covered in vain. From the crack of the door, the wind blew in and out of it, and it was cool.

He walked step by step, but his little hands became tighter and tighter. His heart beat hard, and he held his breath. Soon, he walked to the door and put his hand on the door.

At that moment, the wooden door was as heavy as a mountain and as heavy as iron.

He gritted his teeth, made a cruel decision, and opened the door with a "stop".

The bright light from the outdoors suddenly shone in, making him squint his eyes. The warm and gentle sunshine fell on him, with a faint warmth.

However, his heart suddenly fell into the ice cellar.

Outside the door is a small courtyard with a few pine and cypress trees and a few bushes of plants and trees. There are also a few fragrant flowers in the middle, which are blooming happily. In front of the door is a corridor leading to the outside of the courtyard. Four feet in front of the door, there are several steps connecting the yard and the corridor.

At a corner of the stairs, a child was sitting alone, holding his face and cheeks, sitting there in a daze, motionless.

Perhaps the sound of the door opening alarmed him, and the child hesitated for a moment and slowly turned his head.

Lin Jingyu.

Zhang Xiaofan opened his mouth wide, and there were hundreds of questions in his heart, but when the words came to his mouth, they turned silent.

He wanted to shout again, but he was depressed and couldn't shout it out.

Two lines of tears fell quietly.

The two children looked at each other silently.

In the unknown place in the distance, there were quiet birds singing, the sky was blue and a few white clouds.

※※※

Zhang Xiaofan sat on the other side of the steps, lowered his head, and looked at the stone path in the courtyard.

There was silence in the courtyard.

I don’t know how long it took, Lin Jingyu slowly said, “I woke up earlier than you. There were still a few people in the house at that time. I asked them, this is Tongtian Peak of Qingyun Mountain.”

Zhang Xiaofan whispered: "Qingyun Mountain..."

Lin Jingyu said, "I heard that they were a few disciples of Qingyun's sect who passed by. Seeing the village, the village..." When he said this, his voice couldn't help but choke up.

He reached out and rubbed his eyes hard, took a breath, and then said, "Later, they found us two at the back of the village and took us up the mountain."

Zhang Xiaofan's mouth moved, but he did not look up and said, "What should we do in the future, Jingyu?"

Lin Jingyu shook his head and said sadly: "I don't know."

Zhang Xiaofan wanted to say something else, but suddenly heard a strange voice coming from the corridor behind him, saying, "Ah, are you all awake?"

The two looked back at the same time and saw a young Taoist priest standing there, wearing a blue Taoist robe, quite heroic. He walked over quickly and said, "Several masters also want to see you and ask you some questions. You can follow me now."

Zhang Xiaofan and Lin Jingyu looked at each other, stood up, and Lin Jingyu said, "Yes, please take us with me, brother."

The young Taoist priest looked at Lin Jingyu, nodded, and said, "You follow me."

Following the Taoist priest, the two walked out of the courtyard. What appeared before us was a longer and larger circular corridor. Every two meters above the edge, there was a red pillar. There was also an arch in the middle of each two pillars.

They walked along the corridor and passed the arches and pillars. Only then did they find that in each arch there was a small courtyard almost the same as before. It seemed that this was the living place of the Qingyun Sect disciples.

Not to mention anything else, just from this scale, there are probably no less than a hundred such small courtyards, which shows how many disciples Qingyun is.

After walking for a while, I saw that at the end of the corridor there was an extremely tall white wall. There was a big door open below, two thick wooden door panels, ten feet tall. I almost looked up, and I didn't know how I found such a huge wood at the beginning.

The young Taoist priest ignored it, probably in and out on weekdays, and he was numb. His face was not as moving as the two children, and his expressionless face walked out of the door. Zhang Xiaofan and Lin Jingyu hurriedly followed.

As soon as they stepped out of the door, the two children held their breath at the same time and looked at everything in front of them in disbelief.

This is almost the legendary fairyland.

A huge square, with the ground paved with white marble, shining brightly, and at first glance, it makes people feel a small heart. The white clouds in the distance are like veils, floating under their feet. In the center of the square, a huge copper tripod is placed in three rows, three in each row, with a total of nine, arranged in a regular manner. From time to time, light smoke floats up in the tripod, and its taste is clear but not dissipated.

"Go toward this place." As if they understood the thoughts of the two children, the young Taoist priest showed a smile on his face. After they looked at it for a while, they woke them up and continued to walk forward.

"This is the 'Sea of ​​Clouds' among the Six Scenerys of Qingyun, and there are better ones ahead!" The young Taoist priest said as he walked.

Lin Jingyu couldn't help asking, "What is it?"

The young Taoist priest pointed his hand and said, "Rainbow Bridge."

The two looked into the distance and saw something shining in the distance, at the end of the square, behind the foggy clouds, something seemed to be shining. They accelerated their pace and walked forward.

Gradually, the sound of water came, and there were a few strange sounds like thunder in between, and I don’t know where it came from.

They got closer and closer, and the clouds were like gentle fairies, gently surrounding them, gradually unraveling the vague veil and revealing their clear faces.

At the end of the square, there is a stone bridge with no seat or piers, rising from the sky, one end on the square, extending straight upward, entering the depths of the white clouds, like a dragon leaping through the sky, with a lofty aura. There is a faint sound of water coming, and under the sunlight, the entire bridge exudes colorful colors, like a rainbow in the sky, falling into the world, colorful and gorgeous.

Zhang Xiaofan and Lin Jingyu were stunned.

The young Taoist priest smiled and said, "Follow me." As he said that, he walked onto the stone bridge first.

After stepping onto the stone bridge, the two of them realized that water flowed down on both sides of the bridge, which was extremely clear, but the middle part was not dripping. The sun shone on the bridge through the clouds, and refracted the water flow, thus forming a gorgeous rainbow.

The Taoist looked at their intoxicated look and said, "Be careful, this bridge is a bottomless abyss. If you accidentally fall down, you will die without a burial place."

Zhang Xiaofan and Lin Jingyu were both shocked, and quickly calmed down and walked carefully.

The rainbow bridge is extremely high and long. When the three of them walked on it, they felt that the white clouds on both sides gradually sink to their feet, and they thought they would rise higher and higher. The strange sound in front of them was still coming.

After walking for a while, the white clouds gradually became thinner and walked out of the sea of ​​clouds. The eyes suddenly lit up, and the sky was as blue as transparent as it was. The sky was wide and boundless; there was a vast sea of ​​clouds below, which was gently floating and rising. At a glance, my heart suddenly became wider.

And right in front is where the main hall of Qingyun Temple on the top of Tongtian Peak is located, "Yuqing Hall".

The green mountains are green and the palace is majestic. The "Yuqing Hall" is located on the top of the peak, surrounded by clouds. There are a few auspicious cranes that fly by for a long time, and cannot circulate in the sky. It is like the spiritual realm of the immortal family, which makes people admire it.

At this time, the rainbow bridge no longer rose, and it was arched in the air and landed on the edge of a green pond in front of the hall. At the same time, Taoist lyrics came from the Yuqing Hall, which was filled with the momentum of immortals. The strange sound was also becoming louder and louder.

The three of them walked down the Hongqiao Bridge and came to the edge of the pond. A spacious stone step led up from the edge of the pond to the gate of Yuqing Hall. The water of the pond was green and clear as a mirror, and the shadows of people and mountains were clearly visible.

They walked up the stone steps and were about to walk towards the gate above when they suddenly heard a roar deep in the pool, like thunder, which was the strange sound before. Looking around, a huge vortex suddenly appeared in the center of the pool. After a while, a huge wave rolled up, and a huge figure jumped out, and water splashed in the sky.

The young Taoist priest seemed to be prepared for a long time. With his left hand, he floated up in the air and quickly floated back more than two feet away, stopping in the air. The two children could not escape, and they were immediately covered in soaked chickens.

However, the two of them had never noticed their own situation at all. They just stared blankly at a giant creature that appeared in front of them, more than five feet tall, with a dragon head and a lion's body, a scale all over their bodies, huge eyes and big mouths, and two sharp fangs shining in the sun, with a hideous face, and were intimidated.

The monster shook his body, and another splash of water rushed over, and then it seemed as if it had discovered something, stretched its giant head towards the steps.

Zhang Xiaofan and Lin Jingyu saw that the monster had a head much bigger than the two of them. In the sun, their sharp teeth were clearly visible. Seeing it getting closer and closer, they were really scared and couldn't help but hold them tightly together, their hearts pounding.

At this time, the young Taoist priest floated back at some point, and his palm stood on his chest and said respectfully: "Lingzun, they were specially summoned by all the masters."

The monster glared at him, and sniffed with a "scream", and his eyes turned around, as if he was thinking about it. Then he ignored the three of them, walked to the side, lying down on the dry ground by the pool, yawned, lazily lying down, basking in the sun, and fell asleep.

The young Taoist priest signaled the two who were still in shock and continued to walk, saying, "The Spirit Lord is an ancient alien beast that I sent to the Qingye Patriarch to subdue the Qingye Patriarch thousands of years ago, called the "Shuiqilin". Back then, the Qingye Patriarch to the Qingyun and subdued demons, it had made great efforts. Now it is the mountain-controlling spirit beast of our Qingyun Gate, which is respectfully called the "Spiritual Patriarch".

After saying that, he bowed to the water Qilin again. Zhang Xiaofan was so shocked that he was pulled by Lin Jingyu. Seeing that he had a wink, he bowed respectfully to the water Qilin. However, the water Qilin didn't look back and didn't move, but he snored loudly, afraid he couldn't see it.

After the three of them finished their salutes, they continued to move forward. After walking through the high stone steps, they saw a golden plaque with the words "Yuqing Hall" written on it. Before they arrived at the majestic hall, they saw that the door was wide open, with plenty of light inside, and they were enshrined in the three pure gods of Yuanshi Tianzun, Lingbao Tianzun and Daode Tianzun, with solemn demeanor.

Before the throne, there were dozens of people standing above the hall, both moral and civilized, and it seemed that they were all under Qingyun Sect. In front of everyone, there were seven large sandalwood chairs, three on the left and right, and one in the middle, but there was only six people sitting on the top, with only the last chair on the right, and no one sat there.
