Chapter 19 Phoenix
Chapter 19 Phoenix
Lingzhou is adjacent to Nanzhou, with Luoxia Mountain as the boundary, separating the two continents.There are two roads through the mountains, one leads directly to the bustling Danfeng City, and the other leads to the sycamore forest away from the world.
Entering Lingzhou, the dragon god turned into a human form.
"It smells so good!" Yan Xuekong was very pleasantly surprised when he went out for the first time. He squatted on the side of the road, picked a bunch of wild flowers, and said softly, "It's not the fragrance of flowers."
Xie Yuchen said, "It's Danxiang."
Yan Xuekong ran back, held his hand, nodded and said, "Yanyan knows that Lingzhou Changsheng Palace is the largest alchemist power in the world. Brother Junyu, is alchemy fun?"
Xie Yuchen glanced at him: "You can try."
"It should be fun, but according to the book, to become a pharmacist, you must first master a kind of spiritual fire." Yan Xuekong stretched out a hand and drew the shape of the flame in midair with great interest.
The five elements of heaven and earth, all things have spirits, and there are not a few types of spiritual fires that have been discovered today, but the more powerful the spiritual fire, the rarer it is, and the more difficult it is to control.
"Yanyan, what's so interesting about alchemy? It's dangerous if it explodes accidentally." The dragon god rubbed the cub's head, and said as he walked, "You want spiritual fire. Grandpa has a bunch here, and your parents also have it." , play whatever you choose."
If it is said that Empress Dayan dotes on her son, then Dragon God is simply doting on her son.
Yan Xuekong looked up in surprise: "Will it still explode?"
"Of course!" Dragon God said with a smile: "Your mother has blown up many times before, and she destroyed the pill furnace several times. Later, she finally admitted that she didn't have that talent."
"Then Yanyan will prepare more pill furnaces!"
The Dragon God didn't know whether to laugh or cry, picked up the cub, and let him sit on his shoulders, "Actually, the fryer can't all be blamed for your mother's lack of talent. The Phoenix family used to be the best alchemist. At that time, every little Phoenix born was Can accept the baptism of the fire of inheritance, and light up the real fire of life."
At this point, he sighed: "However, after the first battle in ancient times, the Feng clan burned the world and committed too many murders. The fire of inheritance in the clan has since been extinguished forever, and the talent for refining medicine will also be abolished. Otherwise, the arrogant How can the Phoenix Clan form an alliance with the Human Clan and support the Palace of Longevity?"
At the end of the mountain road, I suddenly saw a sycamore forest.
The mist is hazy and looks like light smoke from a distance. The wind rolls up the red leaves all over the ground, flying like red yarn. The sycamore forest stretches for thousands of miles and is in line with the sunset in the sky. It is as beautiful as a fairyland.
Yan Xuekong stared intently, then blinked for a while, then tilted his head and asked, "Grandpa, isn't there a battle between dragon and phoenix? Then the dragon clan didn't lose anything?"
The dragon god was slightly stagnant, looking at the sky, looking around and talking about other things: "This scenery is really good."
Yan Xuekong was at a loss, Xie Yuchen followed without haste, and said indifferently: "The Dragon Clan will only lose more."
"You are so young, what are you talking about?"
Dragon God waved his hand, stopped in front of the phoenix tree, and patted Yan Xuekong: "Yan Yan, come and shout."
Yan Xuekong said "Oh", took a deep breath, and shouted: "Grandma—"
As the voice fell, a group of young phoenixes in the forest were startled to fly into the air, flapping their wings, hiding in the tree and peeking outside.
Dragon God: "..." This kid is really a tiger.
"Grandma——" Yan Xuekong continued to shout, and only after he shouted a second time, someone stepped on the leaf and flew towards him, turned around and landed, his sleeves were swept away, revealing a beautiful face, and looked over coldly.
The Dragon God scoffed, "The bald-haired phoenix."
Feng Rao's eyes fell on the silver-haired and golden-eyed cub, and she suddenly froze, but after a moment, she returned to normal, and said coldly: "Stinky bug."
Yan Xuekong looked at this and then at that, and felt that they really matched each other.He corrected his posture, raised one hand and waved it, and shouted in a childish voice, "Hi, grandma."
Feng Rao was a little stiff, and after a while, she gave a brief "um", and said, "Come in with me. Stink bug, you are not allowed to enter."
"That won't work, I won't trust Yan Yan to leave it to you! I promised my daughter before I came here."
The Dragon God and Feng Rao refused to give in, and seeing that they were about to fight again, Yan Xuekong jumped down neatly, said "Grandpa, goodbye", and ran into the forest with Xie Yuchen.
Dragon God shouted: "Yan Yan!"
Feng Rao looked at him, turned around and walked into the forest without saying a word.
Looking at her back, the Dragon God felt depressed for some reason, and said quietly: "You didn't go when the child was born, so he called you grandma anyway."
Feng Rao's footsteps paused slightly, but she didn't look back.
In the depths of the sycamore forest, there are no magnificent buildings, only simple and elegant bamboo houses. Going forward, there is a gurgling waterfall and river. By the river, huge old trees spread their umbrella-like branches and leaves. The wind blows the leaves, There was a rustling sound.
Like a hymn to the old days.
Feng Xi lowered her eyes and closed her eyes, sitting cross-legged under the tree, with more than a dozen futons in front of her, a group of teenagers and girls were sitting, and on the left and right sides, there were full of older Feng people.
There is only one empty seat on the futon.
Yan Xuekong was also affected by the quiet and solemn atmosphere, so she heard Feng Rao say: "Go and sit down."
An older Feng Clan heard the movement and looked up, his eyes were either arrogant, indifferent, angry, or disdainful.
With a calm demeanor, Yan Xuekong let go of Xie Yuchen's hand, one step at a time, walked calmly to Feng Xi and sat down. Feng Xi was already very old, her old face was covered with wrinkles, and she was a bit scary when she was serious.
The cub tilted his head and smiled at her: "Grandma, how are you?"
The other boys and girls who were sitting were startled and stared at him as if they had seen a ghost, but Feng Xi raised her eyes and looked at him carefully, showing a warm and kind smile.
"Feng Rao's grandson is very cute." Feng Xi's voice was very soft, with a smile on her face: "No wonder she has been secretly going to Zhongzhou to see you."
Yan Xuekong was stunned when he heard this, and immediately turned to look at Feng Rao.
Feng Rao didn't hear it, she just frowned, and mouthed "sit down" to him.
Yan Xuekong smiled and rolled his eyes, turned back and said, "Grandmother, thank you, this is a very important secret."
Feng Xi smiled, and slowly turned her eyes, scanning every clansman present.
As the sun set and dusk approached, she raised her hand, caught a yellowed fallen leaf, and murmured: "May the Feng family live forever."
Before the smile on the cub's face dissipated, it was enveloped by a burst of dazzling light, and he had to close his eyes.
When she opened it again, the figure of Granny Fengxi was no longer in sight, replaced by a phoenix flying high, bathed in flames, hovering over the Phoenix Clan Yiyi.
Phoenix wept blood and wailed endlessly.
Suddenly, a figure of a young woman emerged from the flames, vaguely the appearance of Feng Xi when she was young.
She looked down at the crowd, with a smile on her face, without complaint or regret. Suddenly, in a sacrificial posture, she hit the ancient Nirvana tree like a meteor, and the red golden streamer dyed half of the sky red.
The mountains and rivers trembled, the vegetation swayed slightly, all the Feng clan fell to their knees, and the sound of sobbing rang out.
Yan Xuekong stared blankly and saw that the figure of the Phoenix dissipated and turned into a red-gold spot of light, the old tree grew new branches, and bright red flowers bloomed.
Thousands of years of protection, a lifetime of clear conscience.
The flowers bloom and fall, and finally get the fruit of Nirvana.
"Mother-in-law..." Yan Xuekong called out ignorantly, but no one answered, his eyes suddenly hurt, and big drops of tears couldn't stop falling.
Xie Yuchen walked over, raised his face, and asked inexplicably, "Why are you crying?"
Yan Xuekong cried out of breath: "I don't know."
Xie Yuchen saw that his face was full of tears, and wiped it with his sleeve: "I don't know if I still cry, I should record it for you to watch later. Don't rub it, is it dirty?"
Rubbing all the tears on Xie Yuchen's body, Yan Xuekong finally stopped crying.
The surrounding Feng people were relieved, got up one after another, and bowed three times to the ancient Nirvana tree. Standing at the head was a dignified and beautiful woman, who was the patriarch Feng Ran. She murmured in a low voice: "Don't worry, we will not I am responsible for your entrustment."
On the ancient Nirvana tree, nine fruits are about to be ripe and unripe, which are mouth-watering.
After Feng Ran counted, she looked at the young girl on the futon, her eyes turned, she landed on Yan Xuekong, and beckoned.
Yan Xuekong walked under the tree, his pale golden eyes were watery, and the tears on his face were still wet. Seeing this, Feng Ran said softly, "There are nine Nirvana fruits in total. Your Highness Xuekong, please choose one first."
"Patriarch, no!" Before the cub could speak, an older Feng Clan member was dissatisfied: "It was just because he has the blood of the Phoenix Clan, so it was enough to give him a spot. How can he be chosen first?"
The appearance of Nirvana fruits is the same, but there are also differences in quality. The one chosen first will always have an advantage.
Feng Rao heard the words, and said lightly: "Do you have any opinions? In a fight, whoever wins me will choose whose heir first."
"Feng Rao, you are strong, we recognize it, but we can't be so selfish, right?"
"It's not that we are selfish. If we were someone else, we would have nothing to say, but this child still has dragon blood!"
The deep enmity between the dragon and phoenix clans, once provoked, cannot be calmed down easily, Feng Ran had a headache, and immediately shouted: "Shut up!"
She scanned her eyes, and said solemnly: "This child is not from the dragon family, nor from the phoenix family. He is the prince of Dayan, the future master of the dynasty of Dayan. Are you still arguing?"
The noise stopped abruptly.
After all, the era when the dragon and phoenix races dominated the ancient times has long passed, and now it is the human race that Chengtian favors.
"Prince Great Yan, Yan Xuekong?" A voice sounded abruptly, followed by a woman in a fine attire, with a smile that was not a smile, her eyes seemed to be poisoned, and she stared at her intently.
Feng Ran felt even more headache, and said calmly, "Yun Tong, why did you come in person?"
"Both my parents died in battle for the Feng Clan. Elder Feng Xi promised to give me a Nirvana Fruit before his death. How could he not come in person for such an important matter?"
Qiu Yuntong sneered and said, "I just didn't expect that there is a surprise waiting for me here."
Feng Ran frowned and said, "Why do you have to involve the innocent young son in the matter between you and the Empress Dayan?"
"Yes, this child is so beautiful and cute. His parents must love him very much." Qiu Yuntong said as he moved forward, his long nails protruding towards the cub's face.
"If you dare to take a step forward," Feng Rao said coldly, "I'll chop off your hand."
Qiu Yuntong laughed so hard that tears almost came out, and said mockingly: "Elder Fengluo, you fornicated the dragon clan back then and lost the position of patriarch that you are about to acquire. Isn't this lesson enough? Now you still have to protect such a little bastard ?”
Before she finished speaking, she quickly backed away, only to hear a "bang", the place where she stayed was already smashed out of a huge hole by Feng Rao.
Feng Rao shot with anger, Qiu Yuntong dodged again and again, and the two immediately fought. Everyone in the Feng clan looked at each other, not knowing who to help for a moment.
Fengran wanted to protect Yan Xuekong and retreat, but the cub blocked her hand, neither dodging nor dodging, the immature face was expressionless, and the golden pupils were shining like flames.
At such a young age, he already has the majesty of the prince of the gods.
Feng Ran was startled, met his eyes, and suddenly felt heart palpitations.
Yan Xuekong took a step forward, golden spiritual power flowed around his body, and he held the phantom of the ancient sword in his palm. With the infusion of spiritual power, the sword shadow gradually became solid.
"Brother Junyu, I'm angry."
A very light sentence, but Xie Yuchen raised his eyebrows, nodded and said: "That's right, I thought you had no temper."
