Outside of Time

Darkness has already filled the sky.

Countless stars broke through the darkness of the night and cast their light on the mighty river outside the Moon Festival Territory. With the help of the clear water surface, the starry sky was reflected.

Seen from a distance, it looks like stars and rivers falling into the earth, making it difficult to distinguish between the sky and the earth.

This is the Long River of Sacrifice to the Yin. In the past, its water was as red as blood, and countless bones were buried there, as well as strange river spirits. But now, with the disappearance of the red moon and the dispersal of the curse, the appearance of this river has changed drastically.

All weirdness dissipates, all restraints disappear, and what is left is only moisture slowly infiltrating in the air, spreading out a quiet beauty.

At this moment, the river was roaring, and a large boat was moving forward in the river, heading towards the Shenglan area.

On the big boat, Wu Jianwu sat on the protruding sail pole and silently looked into the distance. There was a small boat going away.

Looking at the shadow of the boat, Wu Jianwu looked melancholy and full of bitterness.

Under the sail pole is Ning Yan.

He held a piece of linen cloth in his hand, sat on the board of the boat, and instinctively wiped the surrounding area clean.

Originally, he had no mysophobia, but the trip to worship the moon gave him a good habit. He couldn't see any dust around him...

After wiping off, Ning Yan looked up at Wu Jianwu, intending to say something sarcastic, but thinking of the other person's state, he shook his head.

He knew why the other party was like this. Three hours ago, they were in the medicine shop in the Kusheng Mountains. Due to the incident in Fenghai County, they were on this big boat three hours later.

As luck would have it, not long after the boat sailed, they encountered a small boat. There was a woman sitting cross-legged on the small boat. She once had a name, Yunxiazi.

Wu Jianwu saw her, and she also saw Wu Jianwu.

After looking at each other, Yunxiazi closed her eyes.

"Ask what love is in this world..." Ning Yan sighed.

"It just depends on who says no first!" Wu Jianwu shouted to the sky, took out a bottle of wine, and drank it in one sip. However, a few drops fell on the deck, which aroused Ning Yan's dissatisfaction. He instinctively wiped it with linen cloth. Rub. .

At the same time, at the bow of the ship, Xu Qing was sitting cross-legged and meditating, looking hesitant, while the captain was leaning against the railing, shaking his head, sometimes looking at Xu Qing, sometimes looking at the river, smacking his lips.

"Little Ah Qing, it seems that someone doesn't want you to leave so fast."

"But it doesn't matter, Ling'er isn't here, haha."

The more the captain spoke, the brighter his eyes became, full of anticipation for what would happen next.

Ling'er is indeed not on this big boat, and neither is the old man from Banquan Road.

It's not that Ling'er doesn't want to follow Xu Qing back to Fenghai County, but the fusion of ancient spirit and imperial energy makes her fall into a deep sleep, which takes some time to digest.

It's like a retreat, not suitable for being disturbed.

So Xu Qing left Ling'er at the medicine shop, and the old man from Banquan Road naturally chose to stay.

Also left behind was You Jing.

Naturally, it was not for Ling'er, but because she instinctively did not want to return to Fenghai County.

So there were only four of them, Xu Qing, on this big boat.

At this moment, Xu Qing frowned as the captain's words echoed. He knew what the captain meant. In fact, the ship they were on was a gift from the prince. It could span a large area and shorten the time to return to Fenghai County.

But just as it set sail, a large amount of mud appeared silently on the surface of the big boat.

The mud came out of thin air, becoming more and more abundant, and possessed more magical power, causing the ship's speed to be seriously slowed down.

As for Grandpa Jiu, he has disappeared since those words were heard in the inn. Even if the ship was affected, he was nowhere to be seen.

This situation made Xu Qing understand clearly who influenced this big boat...

His guess soon became a reality.

After burning the incense, as more and more mud appeared around the boat, the entire boat slowly stopped on the long river with a roar and stopped moving forward.

"coming!"

The captain's eyes lit up.

Xu Qing also raised his head.

The moment the big boat stopped, all the mud on it fell off quickly and gathered on the river in front of the boat, gradually forming a tall mud fox.

Although this clay fox is made of mud and stone, it emits colorful light, giving people a sense of sacredness, and even makes them worship from the bottom of their hearts unconsciously.

That's a god.

With His appearance, the river seemed to be stilled, making no waves, and the sky became dim, not daring to compete for the glory.

It seems that the only thing left in this world is the clay fox on the river.

He is the source of everything.

Wu Jianwu's body fell from the sail pole with a thud. He was scared to death. Ning Yan was not much better, trembling with fear on his face.

They are unaware of the existence of mud foxes.

Only the expectation in the captain's heart reached its peak at this moment. Under his gaze, the mud fox on the river slowly opened its eyes.

A pair of phoenix eyes, with an alluring rhyme and a charming charm that makes people sink, appeared between heaven and earth. He ignored Er Niu and looked at Xu Qing.

"Dirty little brother, why are you leaving so fast without even saying goodbye?"

"Have you forgotten your sister?"

The delicate voice permeates the world, the laws retreat, the rules are not revealed, time and space are also affected, forming four seasons in all directions, and even the sun, moon and stars appear, rotating and alternating rapidly.

There was even divine fire spreading throughout his body, exuding an extremely terrifying aura.

It distorts everything, and the heterogeneity even more renders the sky.

It was obvious that Mud Fox was stronger than during the previous battle between gods.

Obviously, the flesh and blood of the Red Mother was of great significance to Him.

Seeing this, the captain coughed and spoke quickly.

"Sister, actually I..."

"Shut up, kidneys. If you say one more word, I will take out both of your kidneys." Mud Fox said with a smile, his voice still charming.

But the captain was a little scared, took a breath, and quickly shut up.

Xu Qing hesitated and was about to speak when Ni Hu chuckled lightly and gave Xu Qing a meaningful look.

"Brother Stinky, Li Zi saw the future when he became a god. Do you think I also saw the future when I became a god?"

Xu Qing's expression changed.

But the clay fox was slowly blurring until it disappeared between heaven and earth. Only its charming voice could be heard in all directions.

"Smelly brother, keep your Yuanyang well, and come to the Yanyue Xuantian Clan to play with me when you have time."

The sound gradually faded away, and the world returned to normal.

Soon, in the shock of Ning Yan, the horror of Wu Jianwu, and the muttering of the captain, the big boat also began to blur, until it disappeared into the river with a buzzing sound, and at an astonishing speed, Travel through the void, step into the Shenglan Domain, and go straight to Fenghai County.

And above the big boat, in the sky of the Shenglan Domain, the starry sky is exceptionally clear, and the distant stars are shining, spreading like tiny flowers. At this moment, on a star flower, a figure is stepping forward to follow the boat that merges into the void. , move forward together.

Wearing a black robe and black hair.

With stars in his eyes, a body like a sword, and a spirit like ice, he is none other than Lao Jiu.
