Chapter 227 Fengming City
Chapter 227 Fengming City
At this time, a bird in the forest stopped on the top of a tree. Its fiery red feathers were bright and beautiful, and Shen Gunian could see it when he raised his eyes.
Suddenly, Zhuang Su gave a soft ah, and said desolately: "I remembered, tonight is the Phoenix Dance Festival."
Shen Gunian moved his fingertips, and Jimo Qing, who was lying beside him, quietly held his hand.
They were all lying down, as long as they didn't get up, they wouldn't see the hands they were holding. Shen Gunian didn't mean to hide it from them, he let Jimo Qing hold it, and he was lazy.
Most of the glaring sunlight in the afternoon was blocked by the leaves, and the rest of the mottled falls on the people, not in the sun, but warm.
"Junior Brother Zhuang didn't say anything, I forgot, tonight is indeed the Phoenix Dance Festival." Xu Chaoan's voice was also a little lazy.
Shen Gu Nian's curiosity was aroused: "What Phoenix Dance Festival?"
Xu Chaoan explained: "The Phoenix Dance Festival is a sacrificial festival in Fengming City. It is said that 4000 years ago, it was the heyday of demons and demons. The human race just learned to draw energy into the body and practice spells..."
It was also the first time for Shen Gunian to hear the history of the world of cultivating immortals.
4000 years ago, after the four great beasts were wiped out by the Dao of Heaven, there were no gods and beasts to suppress them, and demons and ghosts swarmed out to wreak havoc on the world.
The human towns on one side protected by the four great beasts fell into a slaughter city of monsters with the fall of the four great beasts, with corpses strewn across the fields and blood flowing like rivers.
4000 years ago, the world was like hell.
When Xu Chaoan said this, his voice was unspeakably sad: "4000 years ago was also the heyday of the monster race, and it was also ravaged by monsters and killed countless people. Fengming City was originally a town protected by Suzaku."
Shen Gu Nian subconsciously said: "Suzaku saved the human race?"
Xu Chaoan shook his head: "I don't know, but according to the records of the poor family file, Fengming City is the territory of Phoenix after Suzaku disappeared."
"Although the monster race doesn't like our human race, they will not ravage and kill. At that time, many towns were the territory of the monster race. Only the Phoenix was the most tolerant towards the human race. Human race who escaped from the pursuit of the monsters, as long as they entered Fengming City, they would Get the protection of the Phoenix Clan."
Having said that, Xu Chaoan sighed.
"What happened later?" Shen Gu Nian asked.
Zhuang Sudao: "I know, I read the file, it is said that because the demons were dissatisfied with the protection of the phoenix for the human race, they encircled and suppressed the Phoenix family. Later, when the Phoenix family and the demons died together, they burned their lives and set up a century-old barrier to protect the town."
Zhuang Su sighed: "The Phoenix Dance Festival has been passed down to this day because the human race sacrificed to the Phoenix."
Shen Gunian did not expect the history of the human race to be so tragic.
Without the protection of the monster race, the human race would have perished long ago, right?
Immediately, Shen Gunian thought of a suspicious point: "Listen to what you said, since the monster race is so powerful and saved the human race, why haven't I seen one so far?"
It stands to reason that the Yaozu should be very respected in the hearts of the human race.
"Of course I won't see you." This time it was Jimo Qing who answered Shen Gu Nian: "If you are not of my race, their hearts must be different."
Shen Gunian was surprised, there must be other things happening in this, right?
Xu Chaoan sighed: "Those demons and ghosts come from nowhere. They have different shapes and are pitch black. The only thing they have in common is that they devour living beings."
Shen Gunian's eyes moved slightly, devouring living things?
"It is said that after those demons and goblins are gradually wiped out, the human race has the ability to contend with the monster race." Xu Chao'an said in a complicated tone: "As Brother Jimo said, people who are not of our race must have different hearts. The monster race who hates humans will tear their skins apart with the human race."
It was another game that lasted nearly a thousand years. Although the monster race was strong, they still lost to the human race in the end. This was also arranged by heaven and earth.
The demon clan fell, and the human race rose. In the end, the demon clan left the Xianmeng Continent, went to the barren North Desert, and became the demon capital outside the Xianmeng Continent of the Human Race.
Xu Chaoan finally said: "It would be strange if you saw the Yaozu in the Xianmeng Continent."
"So that's how it is." Shen Gunian's understanding of the world of cultivating immortals is still limited to the continent of Xianmeng. Maybe when his cultivation base is stronger, he can go and see the great world outside.
But before that, the first thing to be resolved is the issue between Qing Jimo and the Dao of Heaven.
Jimoqing said that Tiandao wanted to die, which made Shen Gunian very puzzled. If Tiandao really wanted him to die, why did he let his soul pass into this world?
Or is it not the will of heaven to travel to this world by oneself?
"If Senior Brother Jiang is here, I can go to the Phoenix Dance Festival with Senior Brother Jiang." Zhuang Su's depressed voice interrupted Shen Gu Nian's meditation.
"Brother Zhuang sticks to you, Brother Jiang, really tight." Xu Chaoan sat up while talking, and said with a smile, "But the Phoenix Dance Festival is held every ten years, so it's really lively, why don't we go and see it too?"
When Xu Chaoan was unscathed, he practiced swordsmanship in the mountains all the year round, so he often went to join in the fun.
"Go." Although Shen Gu Nian likes to be quiet, he also likes to be lively.
Zhuang Su couldn't sit still anymore. Although he missed Senior Brother Jiang very much, he loved to join in the fun.
"Senior Brother Liu, what about you?" Xu Chaoan asked.
Liu Qingming didn't like to join in the fun, but thinking of Xu Chaoan's current physical condition, she was worried, so she nodded in agreement.
Ever since, the few people went down the mountain together while it was still dark.
Fengming City is thousands of miles away from the Hanmen Sect, and it would take almost three days and three nights for a mortal to ride a horse.
And it only took Shen Gunian and others an hour to arrive with their swords.
"That's Fengming City." Xu Chaoan pointed to the bustling town in the distance.
Looking from a distance, Fengming City is surrounded by mountains, surrounded by rivers and rivers, and there are outstanding people.
The most unique feature of Fengming City is the mangrove tree that occupies half of the city. It is the only surviving plane tree handed down from ancient times.
"So many people?" Shen Gunian and others came with swords, and many monks flew by one after another.
Outside the gate of Fengming City, many people were queuing up to enter the city.
"Fengming City is not allowed to fly with the sword, let's go down." Xu Chaoan reminded Liu Qingming.
Because of the fire poison in his body, he couldn't easily mobilize his spiritual power, so Liu Qingming carried him with his sword.
"Niannian, this way." Jimoqing pulled Shen Gunian's wrist to the left.
Shen Gu Nian was puzzled: "Why..."
He saw Xu Chaoan and the others queuing up, they sneaked through the back door, okay?
Jimoqing squinted: "There are too many people, let's go shopping by ourselves."
As he spoke, he took out a scarlet leaf from the storage ring and showed it to the monk guarding the gate.
The monk guarding the door saw it, and immediately let Jimo Qing in respectfully.
Shen Gunian saw that leaf, which looked a bit like the leaves of a sycamore tree.
It is said that the sycamore tree does not shed its leaves easily, and when a leaf falls to the ground, it is said that it will ignite a sea of fire.
Waiting for Xu Chaoan and others to line up to enter Fengming City, he turned around and was surprised: "Where are Brother Jimo and Brother Shen?"
Could it be that he hasn't entered the city yet?
