[Ancient Sword] Tianjing Sand

Le Wuyi roasted the meat, and waited until the meat was almost cold before waiting for Ah Ruan's raccoon to appear.Wenli couldn't wait to jump at Le Wuyi's barbecue on the ground, startling them both.

"Little Yezi! Don't bully Ari!"

"..." Baili Tusu blinked, Le Wuyi's method actually attracted Ah Ruan out.

Along with Ah Ruan were Xia Yize, Xie Yi and Wen Renyu, all of them suffered only minor injuries, which did not hinder their movement.Baili Tusu learned from Wen Renyu's narration that the four of them did not fall together at the beginning. Wen Renyu first found Xie Yi, and then together with Xie Yi found A Ruan and Xia Yize. The taste of barbecue can be found in Le Wuyi and Baili Tusu.

When Baili Tusu asked Wen Renyu about their separation, Ah Ruan was discussing with Le Wuyi about the topic of "I am looking for barbecue meat, but they won't give it to me", and Xia Yi shook his head.

"Okay, stop making trouble, let's move on." Xie Yi said.

When Xie Yi spoke out, everyone obeyed.Le Wuyi and A Ruan stopped playing around, and hurriedly walked deeper.

Everyone walked for a while, Ah Ruan saw a flowering tree, and remembered the time when he and Si You planted this tree together.

Xia Yi looked at her very worriedly.Xie Yi also saw that Xia Yi and A Ruan had something to say, so he told Le Wuyi to go away, and Wen Renyu also went away with Baili Tusu.

"Tu Su, do you think this place is strange?" Wen Renyu asked, "There are so many flowers and trees along this road, but there is not even a single fallen leaf or a single dead grass. Thinking about it, a place like this where the flowers and plants never wither, It could only be... an illusion."

Baili Tusu shook his head: "This is not an illusion."

Wen Renyu frowned: "Then why is it so strange here?"

Baili Tusu shook his head: "The only thing we can do now is to probe deeper." After that, he glanced worriedly at A Ruan in the distance.

"Sister Ruan... I hope she's okay." Wen Renyu sighed.

After Ah Ruan and Xia Yi returned, everyone continued to walk down the huge stairs.At the highest point, there is a huge stone standing on the platform.Everyone approached and looked closely, only to see that the huge stone was engraved with words, none of them could recognize it except Ah Ruan.

Le Wuyi asked: "Sister Fairy, what is carved on this stone? Do you have any impression?"

After looking at it for a while, A Ruan said: "The above is that I, the Goddess of Wushan, likes the fairy Siyou and confided her feelings to him... Unfortunately, Siyou refused to respond... Not long after, the Goddess of Wushan... ... just... died..."

Everyone was taken aback.At this time, Yu Qi suddenly appeared, and there were traces of spells on the boulder to make everyone retreat, and then words appeared on it.

However, Ah Ruan couldn't understand the text that came out. Yu Qi said that it was an ancient language of the heavens, which was created after the death of Wushan Goddess.Yu Qi thought it was troublesome to read, so he asked Jushi to read the text by himself.

It turns out that this stone was placed here by Shennong, and the artifact "Three Worlds Mirror" that can recall memories is sealed in it.The Wushan Goddess is a fairy made by Shennong who wanted to create a living being, using the bone of evil spirits and the heart of Zhaoming sword.It's a pity that replacing the soul with the heart of the sword is against the law of nature, and the goddess died in the end.Shennong was so sad that he built the tomb of the goddess in Wushan, the favorite place of the goddess, and placed her body here.

Everyone was still guessing about Ah Ruan's origin, but Ah Ruan had already reached out to touch the boulder.Yu Qi and Xie Yi were unable to stop, Ah Ruan's hand touched the stone, and a confused look appeared on his face.

Xia Yi hurried over: "...Who are you? Are you the goddess of Wushan?"

"...I am...I..." Ah Ruan looked at the crowd blankly and held his forehead, "No, I am not the goddess of Wushan, I am not...! Those are the memories of the past...the goddess...not me My...!...I am Ah Ruan... right, Yi Ze?"

"...Yes, you are A Ruan... No matter what happens, you are A Ruan." Xia Yi said, not sure whether to tell A Ruan or himself.

"Ah Ruan, you have recovered all your memories, haven't you?" Xie Yi asked.

"Hmm... almost, nothing else." Ah Ruan replied with some hesitation.

"'There's nothing else'?... Alas, half our lives were scared away, okay?" Le Wuyi said.

A Ruan said: "I, I just thought that I should have something to do with Zhaoming Jianxin, so as long as I remember the past, I should be able to help you find it."

"Hey... Sister Ruan, how are you doing now? Is there any discomfort?" Wen Renyu asked with concern.

"...I said, I'm really fine...I'm sorry, I made everyone worry." Ah Ruan said, turning to Xie Yi, "Brother Xie Yi, I'll take you to find Jianxin."

"Ah Ruan, don't be in a hurry." Xie Yi said.

"I'm really fine." Ah Ruan said, "...but, no matter what you see in a while, please don't be afraid of me... okay?"

Everyone said that they were not so easily scared.However, Baili Tusu felt that it might be better for Ah Ruan not to go on.

Ah Ruan led the crowd into the last door.The door opened, and there were countless thick vines growing inside, and among those vines and branches, there were actually many young girls wrapped around them.These young girls seemed to be asleep, sitting or lying down, but upon closer inspection, they all grew out of vines.Some grow only the head, some grow the upper body, and some have grown the whole body.Every girl has the same face as Ah Ruan.

"...This is..." Xie Yi took a breath in shock.

"They are 'dew grass'." A Ruan said, "Back then, the goddess of Wushan died and was buried in Wushan, and Jianxin was buried with the goddess in the tomb of the goddess... Later, Zhaoming's sword heart shattered and scattered countless fragments. Some of them took root , turned into a dew grass; the dew grass absorbs the aura of heaven and earth, and after many years, it gradually turns into a human form..."

"!!!" Baili Tusu looked at A Ruan in surprise.It turns out that Ah Ruan is a spirit transformed from dew grass.I don't know how long it took her to transform the spirit.

"Shards of sword heart...turned into dew grass, and then turned into human...?" Le Wuyi murmured.

A Ruan nodded: "Well... I don't know why, every person that Lucao turns into is exactly the same as the Goddess, and has inherited some of her memories... It feels like the Goddess didn't die, but was reborn many times the same..."

Le Wuyi looked at A Ruan: "...then, Sister Fairy...you too...?"

"...Many years ago, there was a sudden earthquake, the barrier of the tomb of the gods cracked, and the water flowed backwards...a piece of sword heart fell out of the coffin and floated along the water..." A Ruan said quietly, " It stayed in the dark water for a long time before it turned into dew grass and began to desperately absorb the surrounding aura... Then one day, a flash flood broke out and washed it to the land, where it took root and sprouted... Later, it finally took the shape of a human."

"..." Xie Yi looked at Ah Ruan.

"...Then, you met Senior Xie?" Xia Yi asked.

"...No. This is just the first time I became a human..." Ah Ruan replied, "Shortly after that, I became dew grass again because of exhaustion of spiritual energy. It was the third time I met brother Xie Yi turned into a human..."

Xia Yi lost his voice: "--you said--what?! Say it again!"

"Alas...it was as I expected..." Yu Qi sighed.

"After transforming into a human form, the spiritual energy we have accumulated will slowly dissipate... When it dissipates to the point where it can no longer support the phantom form, it will turn back into dew grass again." Ah Ruan said, "And because there is no spiritual support, we can even become human It is difficult to retain the memory of the time..."

"Why is this so? Is there a remedy?!" Xia Yi asked anxiously.

"Boy, if the heart of the sword is perfect, then why did Zhaoming collapse?" Yu Qi shook his head, "It's turbulent and changeable, its strength is indeterminate, it's expected... I just didn't expect it... oh... Ruan girl At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, I vaguely felt that the heart of the sword was about to transform into a spirit. At that time, I thought about it day and night, and only wanted to meet the sword spirit, but I still couldn't do it...I can't think of...the past has been so long, and finally I see you."

Ah Ruan said: "...But I'm not Jianxin, I'm just...I'm..."

Yu Qi looked at A Ruan pitifully: "Girl Ruan, I understand... It's a pity that although I can cast Zhaoming, I can't help you, and those dew grass girls... Alas, in ancient times, swordsmiths regarded swords like swords. Son, in my eyes, you are all my children..."

Xie Yi sighed.

"...Yi Ze, Brother Xie Yi, don't be sad... Hey, old man, don't sigh anymore..." Ah Ruan said, "In fact, the sword heart can be transformed into a spirit, and it can also be transformed into a human form... This kind of thing , no matter how you think about it, it’s a miracle. Since it’s a miracle, how can it last forever?”

"Silly girl, you are living and dying like this, and dying and being resurrected like this, compared to the ordinary cycle of life and death, it is really too much hard work..." Yu Qi said, "I know you must be uncomfortable. Brat, take some time to do something for the girl A rabbit, a cat, make her happy."

Le Wuyi quickly agreed, and the others also comforted Ah Ruan, agreeing to take her out to play.

After everyone comforted Ah Ruan, they continued to walk in.Go all the way to the last door made of Yanchu Stone.Ah Ruan opened the door, and everyone finally came to the tomb of the goddess.

Goddess Wushan lay on the stone bed in the middle of the tomb, surrounded by the light spots from Zhaoming's sword heart, as if she had fallen asleep quietly.She and Ah Ruan have the same face.

"...So, you are really here..." A Ruan looked at her and said, "The person who kept asking me to come back here in my dream...is that you? Well, now that I'm back...you have Want to tell me something?"

The goddess did not answer.

Xia Yi gently took her hand: "Ah Ruan... the deceased is gone, don't be sad..."

Ah Ruan responded, and said to the goddess: "I'm sorry, we have to take Jianxin away... After we use it up, we will try our best to return it. Please don't be angry... Also, to see you again like this, I think it's... amazing."

Ah Ruan was looking at the Goddess, while Le Wuyi, Xie Yi and Yu Qi were discussing how to obtain Zhaoming Jianxin.In the end, Yu Qi took a quarter of Jian Xin with Han Guang and gave it to Le Wuyi.

"...Strange, how did Hanguang become so light? It doesn't take much effort to use!" Le Wuyi said in surprise after swiping the sword a few times.

"Hey... Zhaoming's power is making up for what Han Guang lacks, so naturally there is no need to waste your energy." Yu Qi said.

"Then let's leave here and go to Liuyue City." Le Wuyi said.

"Senior Yu Qi, Xie has an unfeeling request." Xie Yi said.

"...You want to go to Liuyue City alone?" Yu Qi asked.

Xie Yi nodded.

"Master, we agreed to go together." Le Wuyi said.

"You don't need to go." Xie Yi said, "With Zhaoming here, you can stop the demons from continuing to harm the common people."

"What about Master? Do you want to stay in Liuyue City?" Le Wuyi asked, "Will you come back?"

Xie Yi closed his eyes: "No difference, I'm just a Yan Jia."

"No, you are my master!" Le Wuyi said categorically, "Master, we will accompany you to Liuyue City to get rid of that inner demon." Le Wuyi turned his head after saying that, "Everyone agrees, don't they?"

Everyone agreed.Xie Yi no longer persisted, and bowed solemnly to everyone.

"Everyone's great kindness to Liuyue City, Xie will remember it for life."
