The golden beach surrounds the sea, with cascading waves pushing and lapping up. The sky is as blue as water, and the ocean is also blue and transparent. Snow-white birds and beasts spread their wings and soar on the sea, and they chirp and the city is pieced together. Joyful music.
"Da Zhuang, you have to be careful!" At this moment, a slightly worried woman's voice was heard from somewhere along the coast.
I saw a small boat parked on the beach. The boat was not big, only about seven or eight feet long. The mast was not high, and the sails on it were not spread out. The things in the cabin were also extremely simple, except for some piles of enough food. There is nothing but dry food for the last period of time.
The boat is made entirely of yellow wood and looks very new, probably built not long ago.
A rope was tied to the bow of the boat, and the other end was fixed to the shore by wooden stakes.
Standing next to the wooden pile was a young man about fourteen or fifteen years old. This young man had dark skin and a strong body. Although he was young, he could see the bulging muscles in his arms and chest.
This young man's long hair was tied up with a straw rope, and he was dressed very simply, looking like a poor fisherman. However, despite this, this young man's eyes were full of light, revealing infinite sunshine and desire.
The young man grinned when he heard the sound and waved his hand, "Don't worry, mother, I will definitely find the Tianhai Fairy Island and worship in the Ji family's fairy court."
"Oh, oh, ok!" The woman agreed, but tears filled her eyes.
There were more than a dozen people standing opposite the young man. There were old and young among them. The older ones were in their sixties, while the younger ones were ignorant children, but they were the family members of this young boy they called him.
A stout man's face darkened, and he complained to the crying woman.
"Women, why are you crying? I am here to find an immortal. Once you find one, you will be an immortal who will come and go and live a long life."
"Yeah, yeah, yeah." The woman held back her sobs and nodded her head plainly.
"Father! Mom! Don't worry, I will come back to see you right away after I join the Ji family fairy court." Da Zhuang said with a smile, then knelt down with a thud and kowtowed to everyone present.
Da Zhu stood up, reached the shore, and quickly climbed into the boat, while the people on the shore untied the rope for him.
With a crash, the sail was torn open, and the boat immediately sailed slowly away from the coast with the slight wind and waves.
"Mom! I will definitely come back, be sure to wait for me!" Da Zhuang stood at the stern of the boat, waving and shouting.
The woman cried louder, and the man beside him also tilted his head slightly and quickly wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes.
Not long after, the large boat reached the horizon, merged with the waves of fish-scale waves, and disappeared from everyone's sight.
This matter started thousands of years ago.
But it is said that the mortals on the coast have made a living by fishing for generations, and this has been passed down for thousands of years. They are not rich and powerful, but they live an extremely comfortable life.
Just a few hundred years ago, one of their fishing boats suddenly encountered a storm at sea. The hull was hit to pieces and everyone on the fishing boat was thrown directly into the sea.
The villagers on the shore waited for a long time but did not see any news about the fishing boat, so they had to send several fishing boats to search the sea. In the end, only fragments of the fishing boat were found. Only then did everyone realize that the fishing boat was destroyed at sea. , everyone on it was buried under the sea.
The wind and waves on the sea are always unpredictable, and ordinary people who have made a living by fishing for generations have long been accustomed to this.
Decades later, when people had forgotten about this incident, suddenly a man came riding the waves on the sea and returned to their village.
Monks are very common on Dust Star, but they always come and go and never interact with mortals. This remote fishing village has not seen the light of immortals for thousands of years.
Gu, naturally I have never seen what an immortal looks like.
But what surprised them even more was that the immortal was none other than a villager who died in a shipwreck decades ago.
Some old people still remember that he was only fifteen or sixteen years old when he went to sea, and he looked like he was only in his twenties when he appeared again.
Later, the immortal told a secret, and this secret has been passed down with this village to this day, and countless people are willing to take risks.
He said that after a storm overturned their fishing boat that day, he hugged a fragment of the hull in panic, lost contact with the others, and was disoriented by the sea wind. He could only drift aimlessly on the sea.
He drifted on the sea for six or seven days, and his subconscious began to blur due to hunger and cold. Just as he was about to die, an endless white mist appeared in a part of the sea, and the ocean currents also changed, moving towards the white mist. Go inside.
He held the fragment and did not dare to move. When he got closer, the white mist followed the ocean current. After a long time, he was shocked to find that he was no longer hungry. His dry throat became moist. He stayed in the white mist for half a month. ’s time, he finally emerged from the white mist, and the moment he emerged from the white mist, he was instantly stunned.
I saw an endless continent surrounded by white mist. There were mountains on the continent, and countless pavilions and palaces were built on it. The fairy mist was floating in it, and countless immortals dressed in white were roaming in it. shuttle.
At that time, he thought he was hallucinating, but later he realized that he had actually found a fairy palace accidentally.
He was brought into the Immortal Palace and incorporated into the Immortal Palace. He was taught the methods of cultivation and given the Immortal Palace family name, "Ji!"
Since then, word of the Ji Family Fairy Palace has spread throughout the village, and everyone has flocked to it, begging the man who came back to take them there too.
The man did not agree to the villagers' request, but said a few rules.
"First, children over ten and under sixteen can enter the sea to seek immortality."
"Second, you are not allowed to travel together, you are only allowed to travel alone."
"Third, the sea is impermanent, and it doesn't matter life or death."
"Fourth, once you join, you cannot leave the mountain if you cannot build the foundation."
"Fifth, those who have a foundation in cultivation are not allowed to enter the mountains."
After learning these rules, mortals who met the conditions swarmed towards the sea, dreaming of visiting Ji's Immortal Court and cultivating to become immortals.
However, although many people go, very few come back. It would be good if so many people have cultivated immortality and become Taoist in hundreds of years. As for the fate of others, it goes without saying.
However, despite the danger, the temptation of cultivating immortality and becoming a Taoist still cannot stop these mortals from seeking Ji's Immortal Court, and countless people still sail towards the boundless sea without hesitation.
At this point, the legend of the Ji Family Fairy Court has been passed down on this coast for hundreds of years, and these five rules have also been with them for hundreds of years.
A piece of mist that connects the sky to the earth and is about a hundred miles wide blocks the sea. Any monks here will be shocked to find that these mist are not ordinary clouds, but formed by the gathering of pure spiritual energy.
"Buzz buzz buzz..."
At this moment, swarms of insects burst into the mist, and then a dense swarm of insects was seen passing through the mist, as if they were ghosts in the mist, patrolling the boundless mist.
There is a huge pillar standing in the mist, leaping out of the sea more than ten thousand feet, and at the top of the pillar is an insect nest like a bird's nest, with a red beetle the size of a water tank lazily Lying inside it, it turned out to be the Soul-Eating Mother Insect.
Beyond the fog, the sight suddenly opened up, revealing a lush continent no more than a thousand miles away.
The continent extends infinitely, stretching for an unknown distance. Within it are mountains and mountains.
The mist is misty, dotted with waterfalls like silver dragons, rivers like silver snakes crisscrossing each other, wild flowers and grass everywhere, towering giant trees blocking the sky, and the sunlight passing through them turns into rainbows. The aroma was overflowing with vitality, and the scenery was like a dream, but it turned out to be the Ji family's ancestral home on Dust Star, the Fairy Island in the Sky Sea.
"ah..."
On the coast, a young man with colorful lines on his skin yawned and stretched out comfortably. It was Guagua.
"What's the matter? Are you sleepy?" Suddenly, hearty laughter sounded from behind Gua Gua.
Guagua turned around and saw a snot-nosed wolf with long silver-white hair walking towards him with his hands behind his back, smiling mischievously.
Guagua glanced disdainfully, "What are you doing here, Guagua!"
Snotlout Wolf came to Guagua and sat down, "Me? I was bored, so I came to see you. I didn't expect you to be more boring than me."
"What's wrong? Your sister Linghu is having trouble with you!"
"She! She dares! Dare to say no to Brother Lang, Brother Lang, I..."
"Okay, okay, okay, I don't know what your virtues are, and yet you are bragging to me here! Guagua!" Guagua waved his hand extremely impatiently to interrupt Snotlout Wolf, and teased.
After hearing this, Snotlout Wolf was immediately discouraged, "That boy Chongfeng is going to transform into a spirit. The boss and him are arguing, and I can't get in the middle of the conversation. Fortunately, I just went out for a walk."
"Quack..." quack cried out, and then nodded as if he had expected it. "That boy is arrogant and arrogant. How can ordinary spirits satisfy him?"
"Forget it, let's not talk about that. The boss will take care of his own business." Snotlout Wolf said, and then added, "By the way, how many people have entered the mountains from the outside world in recent years?"
Guagua pondered for a moment, "A few hundred, why do you ask?"
"The boss said that the speed of mortal reproduction is too fast. There are too many mortals coming in. If you can't cultivate and want them to become more popular, you should tighten the rules."
"Hundreds are not too many. Over the past few thousand years, there are only four or five thousand mortals, and some of them have received the surname Ji, have married into the clan, and their children can also practice. They were born here. Growing up here, and having passed down the inheritance to this day, those people have long forgotten that their ancestors had a foreign surname."
"Why do you care so much? Let's do whatever the boss says." Snotlout Wolf said nonchalantly.
Rebuilding the family on Dust Star, Ji Liao once again took up the position of clan leader.
Under his management, the Ji family has completely established a foothold here. At the same time, many Ji family members have ascended from the lower world. Today, there are no less than 10,000 Ji family members.
Ji Liao established the rules that mortals from the outside world can be admitted into the Ji family as long as they pass the assessment, and those who have passed down the family for five generations on the Tianhai Fairy Island can get the surname Ji and marry within the clan.
The Ji family is a cultivating family, and reproduction and growth is an extremely long process. At the same time, people with foreign surnames are inevitable, such as Ji Liao's son-in-law Cai Zhihong, Ji Nianshuang, and Ji Nianyue's family's surnames Chen and Wen.
Since it was unavoidable to have a foreign surname, Ji Liao was lucky enough to open a way for outsiders to integrate into the Ji family and accelerate the growth of his Ji family.
Of course, it is impossible for monks with Taoist foundations to be admitted. Only those mortals with no roots can pass the assessment and pass the examination for five generations before they can be completely included in the Ji family. As for the assessment, they need to live on the Fairy Island in the Tianhai Sea. There are swarms of soul-eating insects on the periphery.
Soul-devouring insects are born according to the spiritual power of heaven and earth, and they like to devour spiritual power. The same is true for monks. To put it simply, no matter what it is, as long as it has a trace of spirituality, as long as it breaks into the mist, it will be attacked by the soul-eating insects. There are already many monks who want to spy on the Ji family, but without exception, they are all under siege by the soul-eating insects.
This method is simple and crude, but the most effective, enough to frighten all the little ones.
