Chapter 3
The so-called asking sword is to awaken the sleeping sword soul after the fairy sword comes out of the furnace.For others, this is a very simple process. Usually, you can get a response from the sword with just a call. No one needs to take three days and three nights to complete the sword, of course, except for the water shadow. Because the soul she wants to awaken is not a close relative, but an archenemy.
Despite the hardships and dangers, the water shadow finally awakened the fire, and the huge price she paid was not in vain. Then what we have to face is the disaster of the seven-fore Xuanqi in the lower world.
The disaster of Xuanqi was originally a disaster that must be experienced in the process of immortal cultivation, so as to improve cultivation. Different levels of cultivation experience different levels of disaster. The seven-layer robbery is the highest level of the number of robberies, and its ardships and dangers are difficult for even immortals with profound Taoism to pass. Shuiying knew very well that she would not have a chance to return to Kunshan and the lonely Biyan Pavilion.
On the eve of leaving, she and Kunling looked at the candlelight that kept beating in the glazed light and listened to the flow of sand in the leaking pot. Time passed in silence, and they looked at each other in silence. Until the glow in the sky loomed, Shuiying got up, tried his best to suppress his choking, and whispered, "Take care of yourself. I'm leaving."
She didn't wait for his answer and ran away. The tears that had been endured for a long time finally fell. The master didn't lie to her. She really committed the lonely star, just for a sword, but she missed Kunling forever. She didn't dare to think about which corner of the mortal world she would die in the future. She didn't know, and neither would Kunling know.
She lowered her head and walked quickly, almost bumping into a person's body. A pair of warm hands supported her, and there was a familiar voice in her ear: "You forgot that I have always been very good at taking shortcuts."
"Kunling, you..." She raised her head, not afraid that he would see her tears.
"This is for you!" Kunling put a lilac pearl on her palm, "This is the spirit pearl at the bottom of the purple mud sea. It can seek good luck and avoid evil. When you are in trouble, it will protect you!"
"Purple smoke cold!" Shuiying looked at the beautiful pearls in her hand and shouted, "I can't want it! This is your mother's relic. You never leave her. How can I want it? I owe you too much..."
"Just remember!" Kunling smiled, but her eyes were full of tears. "Since you have owed me a lot, it doesn't hurt to owe another purple smoke cold." He raised his hand to wipe the tears on her face, and his fingertips trembled slightly. "The sword fairy will never owe money, so you must come back alive and pay me back everything you owe me!"
"I will do it!" Shuiying clenched her teeth to prevent her voice from trembling. She clenched her palms, turned around and brushed her shoulders with Kunling. She walked far away. Kunling's firm and clear voice came from the ethereal wind: "Remember, I'll wait for you to come back, and you will give me purple smoke cold, no matter how long you wait!"
Shuiying stood on a bustling street with noisy voices, looking around blankly. People in a hurry walked past her. From time to time, their eyes were focused on her and they refused to take them away. Most of them were men's eyes, amazing, loving, ambiguous, and even obscene, all kinds of wandering on her.
Shuiying was annoyed and helpless. She couldn't escape those burning eyes. No one here knew that she was a Kunshan sword fairy. They onlyWhen it comes to a beautiful woman, she is amazingly talented and untainted. As for the fiery red sword around her waist, it is just a beautiful ornament. No one believes that this delicate and beautiful woman will really use this sword.
Shuiying faced the world helplessly, his eyes and ears were full of noise and desire. Every face was restless, and every pair of eyes was complicated and unpredictable. She missed the quiet and peaceful life in the past, and missed Kunling's clear eyes. The years slipped quietly through his eyes. In a gentle flash, it was a hundred years of time, but it would not leave any trace. There was no ups and downs, no joy or sorrow, and everything was natural.
It has been more than three months since she came to the world. She has traveled a lot and encountered a lot of things, but the disaster she is going to experience has not yet appeared. There are some troubles.But they are all robbers and thieves, which can be solved without a sword. On the contrary, it makes her feel tasteless, and even look forward to the arrival of the disaster of Xuanqi.
One year on earth, one day in heaven. Three months is a long time for Shuiying, but in Kunshan in the fairy world, it is only a few hours. It's noon now. What is Kunling doing? Is it to repair those broken and vague ancient books in Tianyi Pavilion, or to blow in the vast clouds and fog at the top of Yuzhu Peak?
Shuiying thought, and there was a faint smile in the corner of the smile, as if he heard the faint sound of Qingyue again. Kunling's xiao blows very well, which can really attract phoenixes. Those divine birds in the upper world sing loudly with the sound of the xiao, and the sound of the nine heavens. They spread their golden wings and spread the solemn clouds. Those scattered small drops of water in the sunUnder the reflection, the rainbow bridge gathered into a curved illusion. For a long time, the phoenix danced on the rainbow bridge. When it was urgent, the golden phoenix and the colorful rainbow gradually melted into one, dazzling beauty.
"Girl, would you like to drink a bowl of herbal tea to relieve the heat on such a hot day?" A sudden sound called the water shadow back to reality. She looked up and found that she had walked out of the noisy street and came to a very remote road. There was a small teahouse made of bamboo on the roadside. An old man with a silver beard was sitting in the teahouse and greeting her with a smile.
The sun is very bright, but the water shadow does not care. It is the most basic cultivation of the immortal family to be invaded by cold and heat. It's just that she couldn't bear to touch her beauty, so she went into the teahouse and smiled, "Son-in-law, have a bowl of tea."
.The old man poured a bowl of herbal tea from the big copper pot and handed it to her. He looked at her dusty white clothes and fiery red sword, and asked doubtfully, "Where did the girl come from? Where are you going?"
"I... came from the capital, and I'm going to..." Shuiying was speechless, and she didn't know where she was going and where to go. After being stunned for a moment, she asked back, "Excuse my father-in-law, if I follow this road, where is the place ahead?"
"In front?" The old man suddenly changed his color, "Girl, I dare not go ahead. There is no road in front of me. It's a piece of canniorable quicksand!"
"Cannibaling quicksand?" Shuiying smiled and said, "My father-in-law, I just came out of a very lively town. This area is densely populated. How can there be quicksand?"
."Why did I lie to you!" The old man was anxious, and his tone became more serious. Fifty years ago, 70 miles along this road, there was a large town called 'Ping'anji'. It's really a good place to be rich and safe. We often do business with them here, and we also get along with them. Who knew that overnight, the road to the town turned into endless black quicksand, and no one could pass. Many people who are close to each other over there cried to pick up their loved ones, but they were all stuck in the sand. Alas, they all died!"
"How could it be like this?" Shuiying was stunned, "What about the people in the peace collection?"
The old man sighed and shook his head, "Since then, I have never seen anyone there again. Everyone said that they must have provoked a very powerful evil spirit. They must have all been killed or eaten."
