Rules of Heaven - C31

He came to the old woman’s side. His emotions were in disarray, but just as he was about to speak, the old woman spoke first, “You’re leaving, right?”

Ding Hong’s words were stuck in his throat, so he could only nod. The old woman put down the herbs in her hand and walked out of the hall of the bamboo tower. A bundle appeared in her hands and she said, “There is a set of clothes and a few coils inside. You can use it yourself.” After which, he ignored Ding Hong.

Looking at that familiar back and skilled movements, Ding Hong couldn’t help but open his mouth again, “Granny Qi …”

“If you want to go, you should go to the Ruishui Hall to see that little girl, Yu shi Xuan.” She suddenly interrupted Ding Hong.

“I …”

“Take your things and leave.”

The old woman put some of the herbs into the small box that Ding Hong had almost used and walked towards the cave. The surrounding wind blew the leaves of the bamboo sea, salad, and many other leaves that were rolled back towards the bamboo building, blurring the old woman’s view and Ding Hong’s vision.

“Grandma Qi, I will come back to see you again …” Ding Hong said silently. He picked up the things that the old woman had prepared for him and left the bamboo garden with the heavenly jade flute. Just as he was about to leave the bamboo garden, a gaze suddenly shot over from the depths of the bamboo forest. He looked at Ding Hong with warmth, concern, and longing. However, Ding Hong did not see it. Just like that day on the Wumianzhe Heaven Stairway.

After leaving the bamboo garden, he walked directly towards the plaza. In the past two years, even though Ding Hong didn’t cover every inch of Ding Hong, he did at least cover half of the entire area. He was naturally aware of the locations of the five halls. When they arrived at the stone bridge, Ding Hong could not help but take a deep breath. A cold and wet feeling gushed into his throat. He felt a burst of coolness in his heart and his mind became much clearer. He smiled as he arrived at the plaza, passing through the palace and finally arriving at the fork in the road. Without hesitation, he chose the leftmost one.

The path was not wide, allowing about three or four people to walk side by side at the same time. In the past, Ding Hong had asked the Penglai disciple who helped the old woman grow the herbs in the bamboo garden why the paths were so narrow, but the disciples replied, “If there are too many people, the path would naturally change into something else. It was a spell cast by the Penglai elders. ” However, Ding Hong had been strolling around by himself the entire time. When he saw such lush scenery, he naturally did not see any changes to the scenery. For this, he sighed to himself for a long time.

When arriving at the Aquatic Temple, one would have to pass through a large curtain of water. Only females were not allowed to enter. Outside the water curtain, there was a statue. Normally, when disciples of the other halls needed to meet with the junior sisters of the Flowing Water Palace, they would brazenly send the message through the statue. Of course, over the past two years, Ding Hong had shamelessly come to the Rain Master Pavilion several times.

He came to the statue and paced back and forth. He scratched his head from time to time, not knowing what to say.

“Hey, what are you doing here?” Suddenly, a beautiful woman walked out from the curtain of water. She had a pair of phoenix eyes and was wearing a light blue dress. If that wasn’t the Rain Master’s Hall, who else could it be?

Honestly speaking, every time Ding Hong saw the Rain Master Pavilion, he would have to spend a lot of time to find traces of the person he saw last time. This time was no exception. He turned around to look at the Rain Master Xuan and couldn’t help but to size it up a few times before replying for some reason, “The food in your Aqua Temple isn’t that great?” Every time I see you, it’s like you’re a completely different person! ”

“No?” She pouted, then frowned. “You still haven’t told me why you’re here.”

“Me?” Ding Hong pointed at himself. When he found no one else was around, he couldn’t help but rub his chin and say, “I came to bid you farewell. I’m leaving Penglai.”

“What!” The Rain Master Xuan couldn’t help but be surprised. “Didn’t you want to study in the Penglai Immortal Pavilion for four years?”

Ding Hong chuckled a few times and said, “Yes, but it’s not too late for you to go out and do something and come back to study in the future.”

Yu Shi Xuan didn’t say anything and just looked at Ding Hong. To be honest, she didn’t know how to feel about Ding Hong either. Ever since she came to Penglai, she felt that nothing was right and often cried in the middle of the night. And that night, Ding Hong merely sat with him for a short while, causing her heart to feel a very warm feeling. It was a very strange feeling. It was as if someone, alone in a dark tunnel, had suddenly set up a lamp for you, but when you saw the person’s face you blew out the flame in the lamp, but you would pull the person in the darkness and have him accompany you.

Suddenly, Yu Shi Xuan’s body became light and he kissed Ding Hong’s face without any warning. Then she turned and ran into the water, out of sight.

“Uh. “This, this …” “Ding Hong was a little stunned.” An illusion, it must be an illusion! ” Ding Hong came back to his senses and suddenly shouted a few times.

“Cough, Senior Brother, are you alright? Did he get hit by some junior sister? Sigh, this kind of thing cannot be rushed. Back then … ” A man appeared out of nowhere. He had a wide, round face and looked very fat. Seeing that Ding Hong was prepared to impart him his experience,

However, before he could finish his sentence, a shadow suddenly flashed across the water curtain and a huge steel furnace flew out and directly smashed into his face. While Ding Hong was still in shock, he heard a woman’s voice saying, “Fatty Wang, if you dare to come back in the future, I’ll smash that huge cauldron in the square in your face!” Hearing that voice, Ding Hong could even feel that the girl was at least thirty to forty Zhang away from him …

Seeing that his brother was fine, Ding Hong walked away from him in embarrassment. He was really afraid that the violent woman would throw another steel furnace at his face. After retreating half a kilometer away, he let out a long sigh of relief. When he thought about Yu Shi Xuan’s kiss, he frowned and thought for a moment. The young girl’s heart had become a little faster than a book could be flipped. In the past, he had experienced a lot of things in the village. “He came to a small river and washed his face. He then put away all the questions in his mind and went to the square.

There were very few people in the plaza, except for a few important matters. Since there were no major events today, there were naturally very few people. However, there were very few people around. Just as Ding Hong was wondering, an old voice suddenly called out to him. “Little Benefactor, please stop for a moment.”

This voice was too familiar to Ding Hong.

Who else could it be other than the Shun Ling Dao?

He turned around and saw Wu Lingdao. Although he was a bit grumbling, he didn’t dare to neglect his manners. He bowed and said, “I don’t know if Immortal elder has anything else to instruct me.”

Wu Lingdao stroked his beard and said with a smile: “Those few days were too rushed, there are still some things that I haven’t explained to you clearly.”

There were still things he had not explained? Ding Hong respectfully said, “Please speak, Supreme Celestial.”

Wu Lingdao paused for a moment before saying: “You only need to put the gourd into the sea to know how to use it. If you want to keep the gourd, you only need to pull on the rope in front of the gourd.”

After hearing what Wu Lingdao said, Ding Hong took out the gourd from his chest and discovered a small chain in front of the gourd.

Seeing that he knew, Wu Ling continued, “This also concerns the matter of you forging the sword.”

Forging a sword was originally the most important thing that Ding Hong was going to do this time. He hurriedly said, “Please inform Supreme Celestial.”

Wu Lingdao nodded his head and said: “In the east, there is an island called Fu Sang, and on top of it, there is a giant Fusang Tree. A few ancient fire birds live on top of it, and they are called the Golden Crow Divine Bird. Maybe you can take a look.”

Fire belonged to the eastern position. All of these were somewhat similar to what the drum said. If one was able to find the sword forging material there, then it meant that the other sword forging materials should also be found in the corresponding direction. When he heard this message, his eyes lit up and bowed. “Thank you, immortal elder.”

Wu Lingdao smiled, then pointed to the sky and said: “It’s getting late, you can go now.”

Ding Hong nodded his head, bowed once more, and then walked down from a mountain path on the left side of the plaza. This path down the mountain was naturally revealed during the Penglai Neiby incident. Even now, he still could not ride the sword, so he could only walk on this path. The mountain path was long and steep. Looking down from here, Ding Hong could only see the vast expanse of clouds. A steep and rugged mountain path led straight down to the sea of clouds, giving him a sense of descending into the mortal world.

With excitement filling his heart, Ding Hong once again stepped into the world that had once made him despair.

It took Ding Hong about four hours to finish the steep mountain path. As the saying goes, it’s easy to climb up a mountain but difficult to go down a mountain. Even though Ding Hong had practiced the Yin-Yang Image and it gradually merged with heaven and earth, he still felt his legs go soft. The most obvious thing after descending from the mountain was that monstrous wave, which seemed to have never stopped. No one knew just how powerful it was. He couldn’t help but feel a little curious. He didn’t know what function the gourd had, and the immortal elder also didn’t explain it clearly. He arrived at a shallow bank and decided to try out how to use the gourd.

When he took the gourd out of his chest, his eyes suddenly stopped. Because this action made him notice the ring that he hadn’t noticed for a long time. However, after looking at it for a while, he felt that it was very ordinary. Other than the decorative patterns and the bronze color being a little plain, there was nothing else special about it. He shook his head and stopped thinking. He pulled out the gourd and placed it in the water to see if there were any changes.

At first, there weren’t any obvious changes to the gourd, but after a few breaths of time, the gourd suddenly began to soak up water, causing Ding Hong to leap backwards in fright. The gourd then expanded to the size of a small bungalow. No, it was simply a small bungalow!

Because Ding Hong had seen the door!

“This …”

Ding Hong pushed open the door of the gourd and found that there was nothing inside! Moreover, the strangest thing was that after sitting inside, he could actually see the scenery outside. Although it was not very clear, it was still better than nothing.

“How is this thing going to move!?” Ding Hong could not help but feel a little depressed. Just as he said that, some brown colored fragments suddenly fell from the shell of the gourd. After the fragments fell, they did not fall to the ground. Instead, they slowly formed a sea map that floated in the air!

Ding Hong looked at the sea map and discovered that it was very large. It showed that there were probably Zu Zhou, Ying Zhou, Xuan Yan Prefecture, Fu Sang and many other named islands. There were also many unmarked islands. On the far right side of the map, there was a large, blurry scale. Angele did not know what it was. Ding Hong remembered that Wu Yu had told him that he would be able to reach her home if he walked twenty thousand miles east by the water route. He couldn’t help but search the map. Soon after, when he was about twenty thousand miles east of Ji Mo, he discovered a gigantic whirlpool.

When he saw the whirlpool, he could not help but feel puzzled. Thinking about these matters was still too far away, so he decided to ignore him.

After carefully studying the sea map for a while, Ding Hong discovered that every time his finger pointed at a spot on the sea map, the gourd would move. Furthermore, a small dot would soon light up on the map, representing the position of the gourd. When he finished playing with the gourd, he realized that it was already dark. He couldn’t help but grumble in his heart about how he didn’t explain it clearly to Mo Wuji. He put away the gourd and went to the depths of the lake. He then picked up the gourd and headed straight for Fu Sang.
