I am aging gracefully in the world of famous books

"Liusha River?"

Wuji and Kong Wen also went to the stone tablet to look at the writing on it, and saw that there were four lines of small characters on the stone tablet:

"Eight hundred quicksand realms, three thousand weak water depths.

Goose feathers can't float, but reed flowers sink to the bottom. "【Original Poetry】

"Three thousand weak waters..." Wuji murmured in confusion and novelty, "According to the statement above, on the quicksand river, even light and fluffy things like goose feathers and reed flowers cannot float? If it is true, it is no wonder that the river No boats walk any more."

Master Kongwen pondered for a moment, then slowly approached the water, and threw some palm-sized dead leaves and a few broken branches into the mighty waves.Under the gaze of the three of them, as soon as these light objects touched the boundless weak water of the quicksand river, they sank in an instant without a trace.

Seeing this scene, Wuji let out an "ah" and was about to say something when he suddenly saw a black shadow emerge from the bottom of the river, rushing up to the shore with the sound of thunder and the sound of water and the dark wind. Capture Master Kongwen near the water.

"Be careful!" Wuji exclaimed eagerly, and ran towards Master Kongwen at the same time, just visually measuring the distance between the two, it might be too late to come forward to rescue him.

Master Kongwen at the water's edge felt a suffocating and fierce aura blowing towards his face.Immediately afterwards, a monster with scarlet red hair and black face appeared in his sight.In a daze, the lantern-eyed barefoot monster holding a treasure staff was already close in front of him...

"Zheng——" a long sword flew through the air, and intercepted the Liusha River monster who was about to attack at the critical moment.

"Heh!" The red-haired monster was stopped, immediately let out a sneer, and didn't speak any words, instead his eyes turned red with malice.

Clouds, mist, and sand flew under his feet, and he jumped into the air like a tiger or leopard coming out of a mountain, and attacked Master Kongwen again. The movement was as fast as lightning and fierce, as if he wanted to smash Kongwen's head directly.

However, no matter how fast the water monster moved, it could not be as fast as Pei Xiang's sword move.

Just when the monster was acting fiercely, Pei Xiang's second sword followed closely. This time, it was not only used to intercept and block, but directly stabbed at the vital parts of the red-haired monster.

Pei Xiang's swordsmanship has been tempered and comprehended in several worlds, and its exquisiteness is not weaker than that of the fairy swordsmanship.The mighty boundless sword energy and the indomitable cold and solemn sword intent are like a net, like a vast and bright star, which makes the former rolling curtain general and the current Liushahe monster feel chills involuntarily.

After a few strokes, he felt even more dizzy and trembling, surrounded by countless murderous intentions, and he was slaughtered like a trapped beast in a cage.

The water monster was startled, he didn't know where this sword-wielding woman was, how she passed by pretending to be a mortal, making him mistakenly think that she was an ordinary pedestrian who could eat whatever she wanted to satisfy her hunger.Without paying attention, he provoked such a difficult enemy.

At the same time, Wuji also cooperated with Pei Xiang's attack.Without hesitation, he rushed to Master Kongwen's side, and quickly took the sutra learner, who was still in a daze, away from the center of the battle.Immediately, he backed up a distance of more than a hundred feet, and hid himself and Master Kongwen firmly behind the rocks.

After completing this series of actions, Wuji had the time to hold his breath and watch the battle between Pei Xiang and Liushahe monster seriously.

The battle lasted less than half an hour.The water monster was injured in many places, and even his life was hanging by a thread several times, and he survived by relying on Tengyun and escape techniques.

Dodging the fatal blow again, the former Heavenly Court Rolling Curtain General thought to himself:

"This woman is really not a mortal, and the long sword in her hand is not made of smelting ordinary iron. Otherwise, how could she cut me?"

Realizing this, the water monster decided to flee back to the Liusha River for refuge, but was repeatedly stopped by Pei Xiang with sword energy.Not only that, as the fighting time prolongs, the water monster suddenly realizes that he is getting farther and farther away from the water's edge. If he is forced to move and dodge a few times, he will retreat to the cliff.At that time, the chance of him escaping back into the Quicksand River will be very slim.

"Fairy, fairy, let's truce, I admit defeat..."

Hearing the sound of begging for mercy, Pei Xiang continued to attack, but in the end he slowed down the speed of drawing his sword a little, as if he believed these words of begging for mercy.

Seeing that there is an opportunity for the red-haired water monster to take advantage of, he couldn't help secretly delighting.After making a feint, he immediately rolled over on the spot, and at the same time he swung his staff vigorously and swept across, his whole body full of murderous aura and killing intent.Immediately afterwards, he retreated rapidly while slamming his killing move, a slash of fierceness crossed his indigo-colored face.

Seeing that the water monster really fled towards the gap she deliberately exposed, Pei Xiang immediately turned his wrist lightly and tapped the tip of the sword three times. The light movement like a dragonfly touching water showed a deterrent solemnity.

"Since you have conceded defeat, let's stay here. The quicksand river is deep and the waves are rough, and we can't go there if we are weak. So, let's discuss it on land."

As soon as the word "discuss" fell, the water monster stared at a pair of lantern eyes and fell to the ground fiercely. Then, a sharp and cold sword was added to his throat.Obviously, as long as he moves slightly, the head and body will be split into two on the spot...

Just as the battle was in full swing on the bank of the Liusha River, in the Miluo Palace in the upper Qing Dynasty, Zhenjun Erlang, who had been waiting for seven or eight hours, finally met his master Yuanshi Tianzun.

"Qingyuan, I called you here for two reasons."

"But do as you are told."

"First, whether the matter between you and the mortal woman Yin Wenjiao is doom or fate, it is still in the midst of chaos and obscurity. And the secret of the sky has been covered, so you can't forcefully speculate and peek at it at this time. Gathering and separation are all in the minds of the two of you." , we can't help. Otherwise, it will only increase the variables, which is a disaster rather than a blessing."

Hearing this, Yang Jian's heart sank, and his eyes darkened slightly.

Seeing this, Yuanshi Tianzun said in a gentle voice:

"Qingyuan, it's not entirely because of your master-student relationship with Yuding that you were able to enter my sect. If your character is not correct and your Taoism is flawed, then the relationship between master-student will naturally be severed. Therefore, under the catastrophe, I also I hope you can uphold your original aspirations, be clear and upright. Don’t ruin your path because of the word love, and fall into evil ways, and you must also be vigilant against the demons and obsessions that intrude on the altar and make your heart dust.”

"Qing Yuan would like to follow the teachings of the master." Yang Jian bowed and saluted, remembering Yuanshi Tianzun's words one by one in his heart.

"Master, Qing Yuan asks one more question, the fortune-teller Yuan Shoucheng in Chang'an City of the Tang Dynasty... is it true that all divination and divination are accurate?"

Yuanshi Tianzun shook his head and said: "How can we really calculate the fate of fate? However, Yuan Shoucheng is indeed very human. There is such a genius in the world, and he was born at the right time. At the right time, he will definitely be involved in the general trend in the future." In this way, Yuan Shoucheng's ability is indeed close to that of a god in matters of knowing bad luck and determining good fortune, and affirming the success or failure of life and death."

Hearing Yuanshi Tianzun personally admit Yuan Shoucheng's ingenious calculations in divination, Yang Jian's expression became more serious and deep. He closed his eyes and asked in a hoarse voice:

"Master, under the Dao of Heaven, there is a silver lining for everything. When there is a catastrophe, there is a solution to it. Ask Qingyuan for advice."

Yuanshi Tianzun shook his head again, sighed slightly: "You can't say it."

Yang Jian's eyes flickered slightly, and he pondered the deep meaning of the three words "unspeakable".

——In other words, there is a solution to it, but it cannot be revealed.This death calamity is not a dead end, indeed there is still a glimmer of life.

A glimmer of hope... He thought of what Yuanshi Tianzun said at the beginning, his brows loosened, and he secretly said, "Combination, separation and reunion are all in the mind of the two of you", isn't this the way to resolve it?As for what is in the heart, the master actually told himself, it is the eight words "uphold the original heart, clear and upright".

"Master Zu Yin Yin warned, Qing Yuan never dare to ignore it."

Yuanshi Tianzun nodded slightly, and said with a smile:

"It's fine if you don't feel resentful in your heart. If you talk about things that cannot be said, you will provoke demons. Forget it, if you don't mention your love disaster, you won't be able to help, and talking about it will only increase your troubles. Qingyuan, I The second thing I called you here is related to rewards."

Yang Jian looked puzzled, and waited quietly for orders from his master.

Yuanshi Tianzun took a sip of spiritual tea, closed his eyes for a moment, and then said slowly:

"In the past, when I got together with your master, uncle and uncle, I promised that among the apprentices they taught, whichever progressed the most in cultivation, I would give a magic treasure elixir to encourage and reward.

"Your previous cultivation base was considered outstanding among your peers, but it was not up to par. However, in the past seven or eight years, your Dao heart has become more harmonious and stable, and your cultivation base and mana have also been rising steadily. There must be a breakthrough within a hundred years. Therefore, it is time for me to fulfill the promise of the past."

As he was speaking, Yuanshi Tianzun raised his hands and clapped his palms in mid-air and gave a light touch to the Buddha, and saw three auspicious halos surrounded by immortal energy lined up, floating in front of Yang Jian.

"Let's take a look and choose the one you like the most to take back."

Yang Jian's heart moved, and he always felt that the reward came a bit too coincidental.However, since the master rewarded the treasure, there is no need for him to refuse.

Therefore, Yang Jian lightly touched the light cluster on the far left, and found that there was a Tianji Qiankun Taiyi Golden Pill inside. With his cultivation base, it would be of great benefit after taking it.Moreover, this golden pill is also quite effective in saving lives and healing injuries, not weaker than Emperor Donghua's "Nine-turn Taiyi Returning Pill".

Thinking of Pei Xiang's lifespan, Yang Jian paid more attention to this golden pill.

He pondered for a moment, then went to check the light group in the middle, and found that there was a set of fairy armor that was very suitable for him.Immortal Erlang Zhenjun couldn't distinguish the materials and refining methods for forging this set of armor, but he could feel the closeness of his own weapon, the three-pointed and two-edged sword.Obviously, this set of battle armor is very suitable for his side weapons.

"This is..." Yang Jian's eyes lit up, and he loved the fairy-level armor in front of him very much.

"You have probably sensed that the materials and techniques for refining this set of armor come from the same source as the three-pointed double-edged sword. If you choose this set of armor, and then wield the three-pointed double-edged sword to fend off the enemy in the future, you will definitely be stronger. Great increase is like a tiger with wings."

"Thank you, master, for taking the trouble to choose a magic weapon suitable for the disciple." Yang Jian said gratefully.

Yuanshi Tianzun asked with a faint smile: "Then are you ready to choose this magic weapon?"

Yang Jian shook his head slightly, then raised his eyes to look at the third halo: "Master, I want to check the treasure inside."

While speaking, Yang Jian reached out to touch the last halo, and after a while, he fell into deep thought.

The treasure in this third group of halos is a bit strange. It is neither an elixir to increase cultivation and strengthen the foundation, nor an offensive and defensive weapon to increase combat power and strength, but a light golden boat-shaped magic weapon.

"This is the Qinglian Purple Bamboo Floating Boat. During the refining process, a little innate spiritual substance was added, and a bit of the original essence from the South Sea Purple Bamboo Forest was accidentally obtained, so the effect is quite strange and rare."

"Please ask Master to clear up the confusion."

"This floating boat, although it can neither defend nor attack, and its speed is not fast, but it can cross anywhere in the three realms, inside and outside the five elements. Whether it is the three thousand drowning, the ghost river, the wild thunder prison, or the poisonous miasma demon As long as you take this floating boat, you can travel safely, as if you are traveling freely on a calm lake."

After listening to Yuanshi Tianzun's introduction, Yang Jian hardly hesitated, directly gave up the elixir and battle armor in front of him, and raised his hand to put the green lotus and purple bamboo floating boat in his arms.

Seeing this, Yuanshi Tianzun showed a rare look of surprise:

"Qingyuan, among the three, I originally thought that you would definitely not choose this floating boat. The elixir and battle armor in front are of great benefit to you, and I chose it specially for you, and this floating boat is just to make up for it. "

Yang Jian didn't hide his thoughts from Yuanshi Tianzun, he replied respectfully:

"Reporting to Master, this disciple is indeed very excited about the elixir and battle armor, especially the elixir has the miraculous effect of saving lives and prolonging life, which just meets the disciple's worries now.

"But before leaving the mortal world, Fellow Daoist Yin and his disciples analyzed the harbinger of the death catastrophe. We can't be sure how the catastrophe will come true. Maybe it's an accident or danger, or it may be a disease in the body. Besides, Fellow Daoist Yin's fate is still the same as that of those in the Three Realms. The big things are connected, even if there is a life-prolonging elixir, it may not be effective. Therefore, the disciple hesitates whether to choose the elixir or not.

As for the battle armor... Fellow Daoist Yin is proficient in different arts, and has discussed with his disciples many times the improvement of the magic weapon refining method.The disciple believes that with the intelligence and ability of Taoist Yin, sooner or later he will be able to make a suitable armor for the disciple, so the disciple is not willing to waste the opportunity that the master gave him.

"And this floating boat is a real rare treasure. Whether it is an innate spiritual object or the original essence in the South China Sea Purple Bamboo Forest, it is something that can be encountered but not sought after. If you miss it this time, it is very difficult for the disciple to have the opportunity to get it again. Similar magic weapon."

"In terms of rarity alone, it is true," Yuanshi Tianzun waved his sleeves to put away the panacea and armor suspended in mid-air, and said in a low voice, "It's just that this floating boat is only used for carrying people across, and it seems to be somewhat useful. You're single, and it doesn't help your current worries, aren't you afraid of harming that mortal woman because of this bit of greed?"

Mentioning Pei Xiang, Yang Jian's brows were soft, and he said slowly:

"Master, according to Qingyuan's humble opinion, this green lotus and purple bamboo floating boat may be useful to the current predicament. We still don't know what the death calamity is, and it may force Daoist Yin to some dangerous and strange places. If you want to leave smoothly, this floating boat is the key.

"Furthermore, this disciple is indeed very worried about the safety of Fellow Daoist Yin at this time, but he will not abandon everything and only consider his own personal affairs.

"In Guanjiangkou, thousands of brothers and disciples were born and died together. We often need to enter some secret places to slay demons and eliminate demons. During this period, we not only have to deal with vicious enemies, but also resist unknown dangers and inexplicable troubles brought by strange environments. With this floating boat, the disciple's soldiers will have more chances of surviving.

"Master Ancestor, for disciples who often lead troops to fight, the function of this green lotus and purple bamboo floating boat is actually much more important than an elixir or a piece of armor."

This explanation earned Yuanshi Tianzun admiration and a smile, he nodded repeatedly and said:

"Very good, Qingyuan, I'm very glad that you always remember your responsibilities. Uphold your original aspiration, be clear and upright, you have done a good job."

Yang Jian was stunned, and suddenly thought of the ray of life represented by these eight characters, and his heartbeat suddenly accelerated.He suddenly raised his head to look at Yuanshi Tianzun who was sitting on the main seat, and slightly opened a pair of clear and phoenix eyes.After hesitating for a moment, he finally resisted the impulse in his heart and did not continue to inquire.

Yuanshi Tianzun closed his eyes slightly, waved Yang Jian to leave, and said nothing more.

In the mortal world, beside the quicksand river.

The former rolling shutter general who was tightly bound was in a panic. After being interrogated by Pei Xiang's mother and son in a way of teaching and learning, he dared not hide anything.

Frightened by Lian Fan, he first explained his background and background, and what he had done in the Liusha River area these years, and then pointed to the eight skulls on his body and tremblingly said:

"Only these eight monks, after being eaten by me, their bones did not sink. I thought it was very rare, so I kept their skeletons. The rest of the objects, even a goose feather, would be destroyed by these three thousand weak waters." It's going to sink to the bottom of the river, let alone a boat."

Pei Xiang frowned slightly.She thought that in the original book, the way Tang monks and apprentices crossed the Liusha River was to arrange nine skulls in nine palaces, and then put a fairy boat given by Guanyin Bodhisattva on it, so that the group of Buddhist scriptures could reach the other side smoothly.

Looking at the turbulent river, Pei Xiang thought to himself:

"I myself can use water attribute magic to swim from the bottom of the water, or borrow space magic array and wind attribute magic to teleport to the opposite bank. But Wuji and Kongwen can't... If I use the magic array to transfer these two people to the opposite bank , It is estimated that it will be regarded as cheating on the way to learn scriptures.

"To be conservative, you have to swim or take a boat across any river, and you have to climb and walk through any mountains and dense forests. Of course, if you encounter spirited monsters, you can naturally use extraordinary methods to deal with them. To a certain extent It’s a kind of fairness.”

"Mother, how are we going to cross the river?" Wuji interrupted Pei Xiang's thoughts.

"Let me think again, if it really doesn't work, let this water monster swim with you and Master Kongwen."

"Let's not talk about whether he can do it, what if he messes up halfway? Do we need to think of a way to threaten him first?"

The red-haired water monster at the side heard Wuji's frightening childish words, and hurriedly shouted:

"It's not that I want to be lazy, but the weak water in this quicksand river is very strong. I can only swim at the bottom of the river. If I carry the little fairy boy and the monk Kongwen on my back, they will sink in the water like me."

Wuji didn't have the slightest liking for this former fairy and water monster who ate many mortals. He curled his lips in disgust and complained:

"You are so useless, you can only swim underwater when you are a water monster, no wonder you can only roll the curtain when you are a fairy."

The water monster breathed a sigh of relief, and its already indigo face became even darker now.He wanted to act tougher, but when he thought about all the things he had encountered after being caught, he immediately didn't dare to talk back to this vicious mother and son who must have been transformed from demons, so he could only silently make a "useless" evaluation.

Pei Xiang tilted his head and thought for a while, then said to himself:

"Perhaps we can think of a way to stretch the arms of this water monster. In this way, his body can walk under the water, but his two arms can lift you and Master Kongwen above the water."

"Did you use the potion to extract long bones? But the extracted bones will become soft and cannot be restored." Wuji asked earnestly.

Pei Xiang hesitated: "Maybe the bones of the gods in the sky will be different, such as density..."

Master Kongwen: "Amitabha, please be merciful and cautious, don't hurt this monster rashly. Also, why don't you just increase the length of your legs..."

Just when these few people were thinking hard about how to cross the Liusha River, the sky suddenly burst into rays of auspicious aura.An auspicious cloud drifted from the sky, and after a while, the fairy mist of the auspicious cloud gradually dissipated, revealing the handsome and handsome Erlang Zhenjun.

The demoted rolling shutter general suddenly saw his old man, tears filled his eyes, and he cried out sadly:

"Xiansheng Zhenjun save me!"

However, before the words fell, he saw the little devil cheer, and then rushed to hug Zhenjun Erlang's arm, while Zhenjun Erlang, who was always cold and indifferent, looked at the little devil's mother, the devil, with a smile. head……

——Oh, what a happy family of three!My life is over!
