It's still frosty outside.
There is no safe route in the Dark Cold Land. If you want to pass through it, there are only two possibilities. Either you are strong enough or you are lucky enough. It is purely conjecture to find a route with a large number of cannon fodder. Perhaps, the grandfather and grandson passed through the Dark Cold Land safely. Makes this damn Jedi lively.
The cold lamp shines on the lonely night, and it is rare to suffer from insomnia.
After thinking for a while, I remembered that today seems to be another New Year's Eve...
Oh, it’s so fast...
His body remained motionless, his consciousness descended into the world of the small broken ball, and he climbed onto the repaired suspended mountain.
There is no wind, the sun is warm, the spring snow melts and the palace drips like spring rain.
The setting sun is on the sparse bamboos, and the remaining snow is scattered in the mountains.
The winding stone paths on the suspended mountain and the picturesque pavilions and pavilions are all Bai Yujun's shrines. They are all over the world. The only one who can come is his own world. Sit on the railing and watch the clouds and mist bring water vapor. Spring is indeed coming, in droves. Birds fly around the suspended mountain.
"very nice……"
There is no need to think about the top changes in the fairy world and ignore the evil spirits.
Spend New Year's Eve in a relaxed way, quietly being a qualified God of Creation, saying that I am quite incompetent.
Looking back at the temple, which is comparable to the Heavenly Palace.
It seems that there are many more natural gods. The gods derived from the initial order of the world have excellent talents. Although they are weak, their talents are rare in ancient times.
These days, there are no original gods left in the immortal world, and all the spirits with heavenly materials and earthly treasures are being scrambled to recruit disciples.
The figure flashed.
He instantly appeared on the dragon chair in the shrine, lying lazily and without any image.
The dragon chair is wide and big.
Soft and comfortable, suitable for the hopeless Bai Moulong.
"See Dragon King~!"
In the splendid and elegant hall, four priests led a group of new gods to perform a great blessing ceremony. There were bursts of fairy music, and the movements were slow and elegant. Bai Yujun felt like he had really become the Dragon King, and a bit like a god. Emperor, the whole dragon is floating.
The gods born naturally have almost the same appearance, very much like Bai Yujun.
The main hall is full of beauties in white dresses, but it always feels like there is something yin and yang out there?
"Today is New Year's Eve. This shrine should also be decorated with a New Year atmosphere. Palace lanterns should be hung, old talismans should be replaced with new peaches. You all have worked hard to take care of the world, so you can take a break during the New Year."
"Thank you Dragon King~"
"Well, go and get busy. Don't forget to firecrackers and fireworks tonight."
The gods retired, leaving only two gods in palace attire serving tea and water.
There must always be a sense of ceremony.
Get up, stretch, slowly walk out of the hall, stand on the high jade steps outside the door and look at the mountains and rivers in the distance.
"What a nice view……"
Red palace lanterns are hung in the exquisitely arranged pavilions.
Red couplets are pasted on both sides of each palace door, and the windows are also pasted, but the pastings are not the ordinary blessing characters. Of course, the majestic Dragon Palace must have the dragon character written on the red paper with gold powder.
High-end atmosphere and class.
"Where's the little Phoenix?"
As soon as he finished speaking, fiery red flashed in the distance, followed by black smoke billowing into the sky.
Danfeng's beautiful eyes are helpless. Raising a phoenix is like raising black gunpowder. It is set on fire at every turn. No wonder it is almost extinct. They are all seeking death.
"Chirp~!"
The phoenix screamed and greeted Bai Yujun, and another burst of flames flew around.
The growth is a bit slow. There is no way. It may grow faster in a good environment outside, but it is also more dangerous. I am afraid it will not be long before I have to re-nirvana. Others will not care about the continuation of the species as much as I do, Bai Long.
A certain dragon leaned on the white jade railing and waved.
Never set a fire in the shrine, otherwise all the spring snow on the roof will melt away, and the New Year atmosphere will be gone. What you want is this kind of residual snow style.
He mumbled a few words and left, following his instinct to patrol his own territory...
New Year's Eve.
On the top of the forbidden city of the shrine, a slender figure sat alone.
It's another boring New Year's Eve that will soon be forgotten. The phoenix flute is playing, the palace lanterns are bright and dim, and the sky is full of fireworks. Every time the fireworks bloom, they will illuminate Bai Yujun's pretty face.
He raised the wine jar with one hand and babbled.
“Here’s to this boring and boring year.”
After taking two gulps, my chin was filled with wine.
Lift the wine jar again.
"Respect yourself."
He raised his head, raised the jar of wine and poured it directly into his mouth, drinking boldly and making his brocade clothes wet.
Just lie down on the roof and lean on your arms in a daze. I can't sleep anyway. Maybe I can fall asleep when I'm tired and think hard. Maybe I have to sleep for decades or hundreds of years. I just rely on sleep to get through the long and boring years. It's not bad, old man. Black Turtle is right, it is a confinement and a quiet haven.
Under the blue night sky, the palaces and pavilions are the only ones in the world that are brightly lit.
A long sigh.
Exit the world of small broken balls and hold a candle to watch the wind and snow in the darkness.
Unknowingly, I fell into a deep sleep...
…
Zhuquan Temple.
On the winding mountain road, the monkey waved goodbye to his friends in front of the door.
"Zhi~ I'm going down the mountain for a walk. I'll definitely come back and repair the temple door before it breaks down."
Saying goodbye to the old Huixian, the iron ball, Qingling, etc., carrying the iron rod and wearing the straw hat to go down the mountain. After living for a long time, I occasionally want to go on a quick trip. In fact, the monkey feels that he is too weak and wants to find enlightenment and improve himself.
Old clothes of coarse cloth that have been washed white, looking like a gray-haired monkey, with bare feet.
The golden hoop is wrapped in rags.
He is low-key and looks like a poor monkey at first glance.
"Zhizhi, it's useless to say that understanding requires an opportunity. The words of a cultivator are too mysterious. They would rather go to watch the night than fight a bloody path, Zhizhi~"
The townspeople at the foot of the mountain have long been accustomed to it, and even made fun of it.
"The Monkey God is mighty~! Do you want a drawer of newly released steamed buns?"
"Shangxian, the little old man's straw sandals can travel a hundred miles~"
The monkey walked on bow legs and showed its fangs in a strange smile. There was nothing I could do about it. The animal's smile was not as good-looking as that of human beings, and the pointed-mouthed monkey's cheeks were ugly.
"Zhizhi~ Pack the buns to eat on the way."
"Okay, Immortal, please wait a moment."
The hawker Ma Liu packed the steamed buns with straw paper and made them steaming hot.
The furry monkey's paw carefully dug out the copper coins and counted them three times before paying the money.
"Shangxian will come again next time~"
Waving the monkey's paw.
I put the dry food into a package and carried it on my back, and staggered out of the town. Anyway, I just walked forward. I had no fixed direction or purpose. I planned to throw my shoes to show the way, but then I remembered that I was barefoot...
In fact, a certain monkey felt that wasting copper coins on buying steamed buns was completely unnecessary.
"Squeak, the grass on the roadside is so tender~"
I saw a bunch of green grass that tasted good, chewy, tender and juicy, but the key was that it didn’t taste bitter.
I got a handful of grass and ate it while walking. I also saw sour fruits on the trees, so I picked them and ate them.
Wandering and walking very slowly...
A long while.
When we leave the influence of Zhuquan Temple, we realize how chaotic the world is.
There was Lao Huixian and a bunch of big monsters in Zhuquan Temple, who unknowingly kept the evil demons from getting close. But outside the area of influence, the order of the world was gone. Monkey Naoren was completely confused and couldn't figure it out. , What is the purpose of all the tossing and tossing?
I found a well and wanted to draw water. I bent down and looked around, and saw that the well was filled with rotting corpses.
"..."
Filling wells is taboo.
He hunched his back and moved his bow legs to look for water somewhere else.
Soon, I found a puddle in the grass. The water was muddy and had an earthy smell. The monkeys didn't care. Animals drank muddy water and still jumped around. It was like this in the wild.
He took off his straw hat, bent over and leaned on the edge of the puddle, pouting and drinking water.
The rumble of horses' hooves made the monkeys too lazy to raise their heads, showing no interest in those people at all...
Arrogant swearing followed by pleading.
"You still want to run away! If you don't want to be honest, then don't blame us for being rude! Kill them all!"
There was a sound of sharp weapons piercing the skin and screams, but no one seemed to notice the monkey lying on the grass drinking water. The gray fur was too deceptive.
What a coincidence.
An unlucky guy who was hacked flew over.
With a bang, someone fell into the puddle. Red blood on the chest quickly seeped into the torn clothes and flowed out. The twitching and dying human stared at the monkey in disbelief.
"squeak?"
I couldn't drink anymore, so I scratched my head and sat by the pit to watch the fight.
"There is another spirit here! Haha! Kill him and take him back to drink and eat meat!"
The strong man rushed over on horseback brandishing his sword.
The monkey blinked, still not understanding what they were doing, until the strong man slashed sideways very standardly...
Dang~!
The monkey is fine, the knife is broken.
Then, the unhappy monkey swung an iron rod and knocked all the people and horses to death. The ferocious beast would not ask the reason, but just beat to death. It would kill anyone who came. It was simple, direct and effective.
"Squeak~ The material of the clothes is really good."
Lifting up the unlucky guy who looked like the boss, he took off his clothes and put them on himself.
It looks weird.
"Zhizhizhi~Good material, good material~"
Bow-legged, bouncing and squeaking, he suddenly remembered that since he had taken the clothes, he had to show something. In Bai's words, it was called a deal.
Scratching the monkey's head, I remembered that I had learned the Taoist scriptures on rescuing suffering.
then.
In the wilderness grassland, gray-haired monkeys wearing loose human clothes jumped around and chanted curses on the naked corpses...
An old court official who had retired and returned to his hometown passed by on a donkey. When he saw this strange scene, he couldn't help but cry out tragically when he thought about the disaster among the people.
"Oh my God! The people are in dire straits! Evildoers have appeared! How should the people live...!"
A certain monkey left happily after reciting the mantra.
Wearing a straw hat, a large satin coat, bare feet, a hunchback covered in gray fur and bandy legs, and carrying a bundle on his back, he looked strange.
It is said that there is a great road in the world, but monkeys cannot find it.
Passing by a mine.
The captured coolies worked hard to dig out the ore, whipped and yelled at them, and the powerful and stupid beasts frantically dug for the resources hidden in the mountains. The ore was transported away by airships, unabashedly ignoring the heavenly court. order.
Monkeys squat on the hillside and eat steamed buns.
"Squeak, it's the same as working hard as before."
Thinking back to when he first came to the fairy world, a group of bastards wanted to capture him and take him to mine. Later, Bai, who became a general, killed them. The scene in front of him was not much different from that before.
Shake your head and continue on your way, looking for opportunities...
A certain mortal battlefield.
Arrows flew randomly, horses neighed and rushed. In the chaotic battlefield, a rustic gray-haired monkey carried an iron rod and hurried across the battlefield. The soles of his feet stepped on the dead corpses.
I met homeless people on the road, all of them were gray-headed, yellow-faced, and skinny.
There was nothing to eat, and I was so depressed that I had no strength to move forward. Even when I saw the monkey demon, I was indifferent.
The monkey walked slowly through the crowd of refugees.
I found a tree and squatted down in front of the hungry refugees. I broke off young branches and dug grass roots into my mouth to chew. I curiously observed everyone and everything I met, but still found nothing.
The world of spiritual practice is in chaos, and the secular world is even more chaotic...
