Suzaku

The Ermine

The heaven is so big that ordinary people on earth can hardly imagine it. Yi Tianxing estimated that his current speed should be very fast, but after flying for so long, he is still floating above the quiet heaven. The fairy mountain that was faintly visible in the distance before has never approached .

He couldn’t help but frowned slightly. It should be extremely difficult for the Jade Emperor of Heaven to effectively manage such an empty and vast space.

The air here is much brighter than the weather on the earth, and also much denser than the earth, so the resistance is not small. Fortunately, he has a brazen skin to withstand such a high-speed flight.

After flying for a while, he finally got close to the fairy mountain. The silver belt-like mountain stream clearly appeared in Yi Tianxing’s eyes. The dense forest in the mountain and the fresh smell of the mountains made him feel a little better. Near Lin is happy, because trees can barely be regarded as living things.

The round or square stones by the stream seem to be placed on the side at random, but they don’t look messy, but reveal a sense of beauty.

Yi Tianxing took the Yun Jue, and the clouds wrapped around his legs scattered into the air with a sudden sound. He turned slightly and landed by the stream.

There was no one by the stream.

There are immortals by the stream.

There are three immortals in robes with silver eyebrows sitting on the round stone, pointing around a large square stone, not knowing what they are doing.

Yi Tianxing had already taken out the jade pendant from his bag and tied it around his neck. After a distance of hundreds of feet, he used the method of heart sutra and contemplation to save his consciousness to the three immortals. As soon as the spiritual sense touched the opponent’s body, he felt that he had encountered a layer of obstacles.

The immortal who was playing chess looked back at Yi Tianxing and frowned, as if he felt that it was impolite for the immortal official to spy on his own realm as soon as he met him, but he just glanced at him and did nothing.

Yi Tianxing smiled slightly, and took back his divine sense. The previous touch made him feel relieved. These people don’t seem to be fighting type. The immortal energy in their bodies is pure, but they are very stable. There seems to be no jumping fluctuations. They should They won’t be some fairy savages who beat up as soon as they meet.

He picked up his steps lightly, stepped on the stone steps by the stream, and walked up step by step to show his courtesy.

With my hands behind my back, I slowly looked at the surrounding forest scenery, and listened to the birds chirping on the trees. Although it was a bit quiet, it really felt like a fairyland. When he walked to the round or square stones beside the stream, he didn’t rashly interrupt the game of these immortals, but stood quietly by the side of the stone flat, looking at the flat.

On the stone floor are two-color chess pieces, either black or white. The chess pieces are polished from stone, with a light matte finish, which looks very elegant.

Sitting opposite were two immortals, one frowned in thought, the other waved his fan slightly proudly, it seemed that the outcome was decided.

Where Yi Tianxing stood was beside the immortal who was watching the chess game.

Strangely, the three immortals didn’t seem to care much about Yi Tianxing’s arrival. No one asked who he was, no one asked where he came from, and no one even looked at him.

This feeling of being ignored may be a little annoying for ordinary people. Yi Tianxing smiled slightly, still watching quietly with his hands behind his back.

The green trees in the mountains are slowly floating by the wind, making rustling sounds, but it makes people feel more peaceful. The stream beside the forest flows slowly, winding around rocks, and quiet when encountering pools. It seems that it has not changed its flowing posture for thousands of years.

I don’t know how long it took, after a game of chess, the three immortals took their attention away from the game, got up together, and sang to Yi Tianxing.

Yi Tian returned the salute and said with a smile: “The three immortals are very polite.”

“This fairy friend” suddenly flashed a cyan light in the pupil of the fairy who watched the game earlier, this line was very thin, and swept across his pupil from top to bottom.

Yi Tianxing suddenly felt a wave of spiritual consciousness sweeping over his body, but he had the experience in the Guanghan Palace, and he had already used the Sanweijing of sitting meditation to firmly protect his spiritual consciousness.

“Hey.” The immortal stopped in astonishment, and asked in surprise, “Where is this great immortal’s cave?”

The immortal who lost the chess game chuckled and said, “Taiyin Xingjun has a lot of friends in the heavens, and I don’t know who this immortal friend is.”

It turned out that the one who watched Yi Tianxing was Taiyin Xingjun, he shook his head, looked at Yi Tianxing, and gave another respectful salute. Since he couldn’t detect the opponent’s realm, then the opponent’s realm must be higher than his own.

Yi Tianxing returned a salute, and asked with a smile: “Seeing the three immortals falling silently, my heart moved.”

The three immortals smiled slightly, took their hands away, and invited him to sit without asking who Yi Tianxing was.

Yi Tianxing was honest and blunt, sitting on the rock with his buttocks, he played Go very well.Poor, but there are a lot of chess records that I can memorize. I watched it for a long time before, and I have already seen that these immortals have been in the world for too long, and they only know some ancient scores. There is nothing new about the shackles of the spectrum bureau.

He pretended to be suspicious: “It’s just that the three immortals play chess differently from me.”

“It’s okay, it’s okay.” The three immortals said repeatedly.

The heavens are so big that the immortals seldom do such things as visits these days. These three have played countless games of chess on this mountain. Although their interest has not diminished, after hundreds of years, they occasionally saw a strange face come to participate. Naturally very happy.

Yi Tianxing thought for a while, but felt that he was still not sure, and said with a slight smile: “I will make a score for the three of you first, please give me pointers.”

Sanxian lightly stroked his silver whiskers and nodded slightly, feeling that although this person’s level is not low, his attitude is quite good.

The ground was full of black and white pieces, and Yi Tianxing gently placed the last piece on the chessboard, while the three immortals who had been watching attentively stood aside.

“How does this make the hostility too heavy?” Taiyin Shenjun murmured, he has been immersed in the art of chess for thousands of years, and he pays attention to staying on the chessboard and being righteous. Although he still has the idea of ​​winning or losing, he can’t think of this Chess pieces can also be stained with layers of blood.

What Yi Tianxing played was the first round of Japan’s strongest game of the year. A generation of chess master Wu Qingyuan defeated Takakawa Hidege in the black middle game. , passed on to future generations.

These three immortals who love to play chess have been in the upper realm for a long time, and they don’t know how far the mortals in the lower realm have studied this mere black and white, so they couldn’t help frowning slightly.

The ancient and modern chess cases are different, and the handicap is different, so the black side’s winning potential is even more fierce.

The three immortals bowed to Yi Tianxing, and sighed: “The immortal friends are very skilled in chess, and we are no match for the three of us, but” after a little consideration, the Taiyin God sighed: “It’s just that the murderous intent in this game is too heavy, and the victory and defeat are too serious. , but not the way of pure mind.”

Yi Tianxing stood up and bowed: “This is a game. If you don’t insist on winning or losing, then why play it? It’s better to throw it into the stream and let it sink to the bottom of the clean water, and spend this peaceful time in the heaven.”

Be silent for a while.

The three immortals laughed: “The fairy friends are right, but the three of us have long been accustomed to living like this, and we can’t give up.” The three of you will appreciate the time for several more years, and I am very grateful.”

“I’m telling you the truth.” Yi Tianxing smiled slightly, cupped his hands and said, “If you want to disturb me, I’m asking for something.”

“Please tell me what’s up”

“Dare to ask”

The celestial mountain hangs alone on the side of the heaven, and it is thousands of miles away from other caves. Today, the celestial mountain shakes suddenly, and a rainbow-like barrier protects all the peaks and creeks. Inside the barrier, there are strong waves from time to time The ground wave came out, but fortunately the enchantment was soft and turned into a gentle force, but it also shook the foot of the mountain stream and swayed on the grass, wetting a large area.

After an unknown amount of time, the barrier was withdrawn.

Yi Tianxing walked out of the valley dejectedly. There was nothing broken on his body, and his physical body was in good condition, but his expression was very gloomy. He turned his head and cupped his hands towards Nei Li, and said sincerely: “The three immortals don’t need to be sent away.”

After saying this, the three immortal officials whose immortal robes were all torn into tatters came out slowly, looking a little embarrassed, but with a very calm expression, and said to Yi Tianxing: “The Dao of Immortal Friend is already gone!” It’s just that I’m not yet proficient in using it, and it only takes time, and it will definitely be able to reach a higher level.”

The God of Taiyin coughed twice at the side, and said: “It’s just that the immortal friends are looking around. It’s not easy to improve the realm through exchanges. This heaven is extremely vast. If there is no urgent matter, all the immortals will rest in their own caves, like ours. There are not too many three playful fairy families.”

Yi Tianxing thanked him sincerely and bid farewell to the three immortals.

It wasn’t until he was far away from the fairy mountain that he absorbed the cloud thread in the air and coiled it around his legs, and with a stroke of luck, he broke through the air and left. The gloomy expression on his face disappeared completely, and a strange smile appeared.

Heaven is really fun, those immortals are innocent and innocent, they don’t have any suspicion of him at all, they think he is a boring fairy in some cave, looking for friends to play around.

Earlier in the valley, Yi Tianxing had a small “competition” with the opponent using the Taoist formulas he had learned from Shang San San and Wudang Mountain. In this contest, he did not rely on his own brute strength, He also didn’t use any Buddhist fire technique, just used the Taoist formula against the immortal formula, and after a few trials, he was defeated by himself. It wasn’t that he couldn’t beat the three immortals, but he just wanted to see what the normal strength in the heaven was like, so he was very satisfied with this action.

Before finding the master, he had to find a way to adapt to the fighting style of the heavens.

Watching Yi Tianxing go away, the three immortals retreated back to the valley, but they all showed shocking expressions on their faces.

“I don’t know which sect that celestial friend is from, but he is so full of celestial power.” Taiyin Shenjun sighed.

The other two also sighed at the same time: “You and I should hurry back to the mountain to heal our injuries.” With a wave of the robe, it turned into several rays of light and cast them into the distance of the sky.

The sky is extremely vast, and if viewed from a physical point of view, all sides are flat, like a flat plate, and the strange clouds on it are several thousand feet high from the ground, but compared with the endless land, it still looks very short, soIt feels a little depressing during the flight.

Yi Tianxing squinted his eyes slightly, thinking that what Taiyin Shenjun said was indeed true, the heavens are too big, and it is really something that can be met but not sought after to search for immortals to discuss. The realms of immortals and mortals are really different. Perhaps after thousands of years of practice, they have become indifferent to many things, so the three Taiyin gods were not very curious about Yi Tianxing at all, and they didn’t even bother to ask. one time.

But because of this, Yi Tianxing became more and more confused. If he cultivated to the realm of Amitabha Buddha, how could he murder the Buddha for the purpose of fighting for power and profit?

He was flying non-stop above the heavens, slowing down his speed, and with the awning in his hand, he was looking for movements within tens of thousands of kilometers in all directions.

It was still dead silent.

He frowned slightly, thinking that going on like this was not an option, the immortals in this world seemed to have gone to sleep, and after he completed his first task, he would have to wait for many days.

“Should we implement plan b?” he asked himself in his heart. Plan b is to find someone who knows the inside story of the matter to find out the whereabouts of the master. It is simple to say, but it is actually complicated. Is there anyone I can trust, the corner of Emperor Zhenwu can be regarded as safe?

While flying and thinking, he suddenly frowned, a cold light flashed in his eyes, he made a random move with his right hand in the turbulent air, and the golden stick suddenly appeared in his hand

With a sound of “Zeng”, the golden stick he was holding obliquely in his right hand shook suddenly.

The bottom of the stick suddenly becomes longer and sharper, extending hundreds of feet straight, piercing the ground below from the sky

Like a hot knife cutting butter, the extremely sharp tip of the stick pierced into the ground soundlessly, with only a slight swish.

The clouds under Yi Tianxing’s feet were in a mess, and he stabilized his figure above the sky.

“Receive…” he let out a soft voice with no expression on his face, piercing the ground from the sky, hundreds of feet long, watching the terrifying golden stick sneer, turning into a golden light and retracting it.

He squinted slightly, looking at the tip of the stick as thin as a golden thorn.

The tip of the golden thorn stick was piercing the tail of an ermine, and the poor ermine screamed and whined, trying to escape, but the tail was pierced by the gold stick, so it couldn’t escape, and broke some wounds , a drop of silver-white blood flowed out.

Yi Tianxing’s golden pupils flashed, and he found that this little guy who had been following him had no bone meridians in his body, but a silver substance in one piece.

He frowned and stretched out his hand, wanting to take the little ermine off the tip of the stick.

Unexpectedly, when the finger was still a few inches away from the ermine, the little ermine suddenly became quiet, and touched its own tail pierced by the gold rod with its small furry palm, a trace of sadness flashed in its small eyes, as if Some are reluctant.

Yi Tianxing was stunned for a moment, but who would have thought that the little ermine squeaked violently, struggled hard, and broke its tail, turning into a silver light and flying away

“Good guy” Yi Tianxing praised, Yunsi turned under his feet, and his body turned into a ray of light to follow.

In just a few moments, the mouse had traversed most of the sky alone.

Yi Tianxing let out a muffled snort, and the Shangqing Lei Jue came out quickly, flakes of snowflakes fell from the space where the ermine fled, the ermine froze slightly, Yi Tianxing’s figure froze, and he came to it the next moment Behind him, he stretched out his palm and pinched it firmly in his palm.

The little silver mouse was wrapped in the palm of the hand, only the little mouse’s head was exposed from the tiger’s mouth, and it kept whining, as if begging for mercy.

“Ermine” Yi Tianxing frowned, and said to himself: “It seems that King Duowen knows that there are people coming from the heaven.”

He suddenly smiled slightly, and said to Silver Mouse: “You came to follow me, so naturally I can’t let you go back, although I don’t know why your master didn’t come to catch me, but I can’t let you go.”

The Silver Mouse suddenly became quiet, as if anticipating his own tragic end.

“Follow me.” Yi Tianxing squinted and said: “You are a cute little guy, cuter than a fairy, I am reluctant to kill you, and I will take you to the lower realm to play with the little guy in the future.”

When the Silver Mouse heard that he didn’t have to die, his spirits perked up, and he squeaked and screamed non-stop.

Yi Tianxing smiled slightly, let go of his palm, and supported the little ermine. The little ermine ran rapidly on his palm, but did not run out of the range of the palm. It seemed very excited and gradually turned into an invisible phantom.

Suddenly, a flash of silver light quickly turned into flowing silver and fell to the ground

There was no unexpected expression on Yi Tianxing’s face, he had known for a long time that the personal spirits of these immortal generals were not so easy to subdue, so he smiled and stood up his golden stick again.

With a bang, the golden rod suddenly lengthened, and pierced into the hard heavenly ground with a swish.

Yi Tianxing floated down slowly, and the stick became shorter and shorter. He squatted down slightly, and saw that the tip of the golden stick was rubbing against the ermine’s silvery red ears and piercing into the rock. The little ermine was trembling all over. , seemed very frightened.

“Don’t play the routine of capturing Menghuo seven times, it’s boring.” Yi Tianxing squatted halfway, and gently pulled out the head of the little ermine with his fingers, “Don’t pretend to be dead, next time if you run away again, I will directly kill you.” nailed to your head.”

The little ermine scratched the ground, turned over immediately, ran to Yi Tianxing’s feet, and kept rubbing his small head against his calf, expressing intimacy and submission.

Yi Tianxing caught this little spirit beast because he knew that King Duowen always liked to use itThis little thing scouts gossip and fights alone in the heavens. If he can subdue such an excellent scout, it will be really good.

Let the ermine lead the way, so he floated up to the sky, and went around looking for immortals to fight.
