Chapter 191 Heavenly Treasure House
"What kind of price do you want us to give?" the Jade Emperor looked at me and asked. Baidu: real name +
"As for the price issue...actually I don't have a fixed concept."
"Then how should we talk?" the Jade Emperor asked doubtfully.
"This is what happened." I organized my words a little, and then said: "Although our Frost Rose Alliance has done a lot of business, the business partners we cooperate with are all mortal organizations. You can just use ordinary items or directly use money to settle the settlement. However, Heaven is a divine force, and some of your resources are not common with ours, and many of your resources are completely useless to you. When it comes to us There is huge value there, so I don’t think it’s appropriate for us to make a direct offer. The most appropriate way is for you to make a list of all the things that can be used as reward, and then come up with some detailed information, such as these things The uses and usage methods. In this case, if we have anything to trade in the future, we only need to directly compare it with this form."
"This indeed facilitates the transactions between us, but this kind of thing requires a lot of time to sort out, and we won't be able to prepare it in a short while!"
"Regarding this issue, I think we can completely sort it out and let me pick it up. While you are sorting it out, I can pick out the things you need, and if you find anything valuable, you can use it as a bargaining chip for this transaction. "
"That's okay." The Jade Emperor said and turned to the Supreme Lord: "Old Lord, this matter will trouble you."
"Old minister, I obey the order." The Supreme Lord said and took me away from the Lingxiao Palace. After I left, all the gods here celebrated. After all, no matter how much the things given to me are, they are nothing to gods like them, but getting a lot of income from the power of faith is a real benefit, so these gods and Buddhas are all very excited.
While the gods and Buddhas here were celebrating, I had already walked to a place behind the heaven with Taishang Laojun. However, unlike ordinary palaces in heaven, this place here is not a palace. But a floating mountain. Although there are many floating mountains in Heaven, this one is definitely quite strange, because it is different from those floating mountains whose tops are basically flat. This floating mountain has a diamond-shaped structure as a whole. It feels as if the bottoms of two mountains are connected to form such a mountain.
The location we arrived at is at the widest point in the center of the mountain, and there is a cave-like place here, but this place has obviously been repaired. Not only has a gate been built at the entrance of the cave, but there is also a small square in front.
"Laojun." As soon as we stepped onto the square, two golden-armored generals suddenly appeared next to us. I don’t know where these two people were hiding before. I didn’t see them at all before, but as soon as they landed, I found that they appeared directly in front of us, and they were already saluting the Supreme Lord. If instead of saluting, they attack us. Doesn’t that mean we don’t feel each other until we are struck by each other? This ability is really incredible.
Taishang Laojun did not have any abnormal reaction to the appearance of these two golden-armored generals. If he had not known about it for a long time, then he must have had a way to discover them in advance. But I don’t know what happened to them anyway. I just roughly guessed that the abilities of the two golden-armored generals are not entirely my own, and may have something to do with this floating mountain.
After the two golden-armored god generals finished their salutes, Taishang Laojun immediately said: "I follow the orders of the Jade Emperor. I brought President Ziri here to choose the reward. This is the seal." After saying that, he stretched out his hand and punched a golden aperture.
One of the golden-armored generals caught the light circle and immediately said: "The seal is correct, please."
Taishang Laojun nodded, and then walked forward and said to me: "Has President Ziri ever heard of Baoshan?"
"Baoshan?"
"There is a saying in the mortal world that one goes deep into the treasure mountain but returns empty-handed. Originally, this floating mountain is what it is talking about. This is one of the treasure houses of heaven, containing a large number of magic weapons, spiritual treasures and other items. If anything falls on Those are incredible things in the human world. But the guards here are very tight. Most people can’t bring anything out without permission, so there is a saying that they enter the treasure mountain and return empty-handed."
I nodded and said, "Are the guards here very tight? I only saw two guards!"
"The guards don't have to be posted outside!" Taishang Laojun said, pointing to the two stone lions on both sides of the cave entrance. "Do you have any idea about watching this gatekeeper beast?"
After hearing what Taishang Laojun said, I looked at it carefully. I really didn't notice it before I didn't pay attention, but when I focused my attention, I immediately discovered the problem. What was in front of me was clearly two mythical beasts squatting there, not stone lions at all. Although I can confirm that the thing on the outside is really a stone shell, what's inside is the real Taotie beast.
"Damn it, isn't this Taotie?"
"Yes. These are Taotie. And they are two very rare Taotie. Their fighting ability is much stronger than that of their companions, and they have a special hobby, which is sleeping. The longer they sleep, the better they will be when they wake up. Hungry. The combat effectiveness will increase accordingly. These two have not awakened for thousands of years, so once they wake up, even I have to be careful."
"I know you have a lot of good things in heaven."
"What's this? I'll take you in and you'll know." Taishang Laojun said and guided me into the door.
This door looks similar to the door to the homes of princes and ministers in ancient times. The red door is decorated with a large number of copper nails, and the door knocker is made of two animal heads holding a metal circle. However, this metal circle is not a simple circle, because it is actually formed by a small golden dragon coiled up.
When we approached, the little dragon on the door automatically swam up, and then sat on one of the beast's heads. Then the door opened by itself, and after we entered, the door automatically closed, and the little dragon swam back and locked the door. live.
Behind this gate is the real cave. Although there is no decoration, the walls are all carved out and are quite flat, and there are fluorescent gravels on the ground. Not only do they look quite beautiful, but more importantly, these stones act as a light source and illuminate the entire cave.
The entrance to the cave is very long, but once you walk up it, as long as you step forward, you will feel like you are walking on a conveyor belt. It obviously feels like you are just walking at a normal speed. But he could actually feel the wind blowing in his ears, and the speed was estimated to be at least eighty kilometers per hour. I don’t know if this is because Taishang Laojun cast a spell on me to save time, or if the passages in this place are just like this.
After advancing for a certain distance, we soon arrived at a large cave. This cave was more beautiful than the road ahead because there was a lake here. There are also a lot of luminous fluorite in the lake. When the lake water shines on the ground, it turns into a color between ice blue and tender green, which is quite beautiful.
More than half of this huge cave is occupied by the lake, and the rest is a crescent-shaped land. There is an altar at the widest part of the crescent, and above the altar is a There is a single door. Because the location we entered is on the side of the crescent moon, we can directly see the front and rear sides of the gate. The back of this door is not against the wall. Instead, it stood in the center of the altar, with both front and back empty. I have seen a lot of gates with this structure, and this construction method usually means that it is a portal.
Taishang Laojun did not rush to the door, but took me directly to the lake. Then he stretched out his hand to pick up a stone from the ground and raised his hand to throw it into the lake. But not before he threw it out. I saw that the originally calm mirror-like lake water suddenly started to rotate, and then I saw a huge head popping up from the bottom of the water with a large amount of scattered lake water. Taishang Laojun and I quickly applied a layer of protective shield on our bodies, and then removed the protective shield after watching the lake water falling down like a waterfall flowing down the protective shield.
Of course what came out of the lake was not a monster, but an out-and-out divine dragon. However, this one was not a golden dragon, but a blue-blue divine dragon that was almost the same color as the lake.
The size of this dragon doesn't look very big, at least based on my understanding of dragons. This dragon must have used magic to reduce its size. After all, even a dragon like Little Dragon Girl who is still in the juvenile stage of the dragon clan is already hundreds of meters long. This dragon can serve as a guard in the treasure house in heaven. This lifespan must be several thousand years, right? How could such a mighty thing be only about 200 meters long? Isn't this a joke?
Immediately after the dragon appeared, he roared at Taishang Laojun: "You old guy throws stones into my lake every time you come here. Are you sincere?"
"Didn't I remind you that guests are coming?"
"I just need time to wake up. Why do I need you to remind me?" The Shenlong said and suddenly flew up towards the shore. At the same time, his body was also changing rapidly. When he landed, he had turned into a very handsome young man in green. Of course, the two dragon horns on the dragon's head are still very conspicuous, so even a fool knows that this is the dragon just now.
To be honest, the genes of the Shenlong clan are really very good. The transformed image of the dragon in front of me looks like he is in his thirties, but this thirty-something year old is not old, but a calm temperament, which makes people feel very young at first glance. I feel that this is a middle-aged man who has good looks. Of course, in fact, this should be regarded as a genuine old monster. After all, the person in front of him is at least a thousand years old. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is an old monster.
In addition to his delicate appearance and calm temperament, this dragon's figure is also quite standard. He seems to be at least 1.9 meters tall and is quite tall. Although he is wearing the scholar's uniform, he looks like a knight. a feeling of. It doesn't look weak. After all, this is a dragon. If this can be considered weak, how can others survive?
After turning into a human form, the dragon looked at me, then walked over and clasped his fists with both hands. "The Immortal Lord Aolai who guards the cave at Lingbao Cave in Xiabaoshan Mountain, I wonder what my fellow immortals call him?"
"I'm under the Purple Sun." The other person began to speak in classical Chinese without me even realizing it. It felt so strange.
"Oh, it turns out to be Immortal Zi Sun. This is an important place in heaven, and ordinary people are not allowed to enter. But since it was the old man who brought you here, it must be because of the Jade Emperor's decree. I don't know whether you are here to collect things or to store them. thing?"
"It's to get something."
"Oh, then please come with me." This person is easy to talk to, but he seems to have some grudge against Taishang Laojun. Anyway, it is obvious that this person does not like Taishang Laojun.
Taishang Laojun usually has a fairy-like air and seems to be very dignified. But for some reason, after seeing this guy, his whole temperament changed a bit like an old gangster. It is said that everyone has several personalities. Could it be that Taishang Laojun also has one? This gap is a bit big!
Follow Ao Lai up to the altar, and then the other party gently pushed the door and the door opened. However, I know that if it were someone else, what we would see when the door opened would not be the place we see now, but the hole behind it. The wall was broken, because Ao Lai clearly used some kind of ability when he pushed the door open. There is a very strong energy spreading. Therefore, as a guard, he must also be the key to this door. Without him, no one would be able to open this door.
I had made several guesses about the situation behind the opened door, but I was still shocked when I actually saw it, because what was behind the door was so magical.
The space behind this portal turned out to be a universe of stars, and when we walked in, we immediately entered a gravity-free state. There is void all around, and various celestial bodies can be seen in the distance. If there wasn't oxygen here, I would have thought this was in space. However, what surprised me more than the space environment was the densely packed treasures in front of me.
The space inside this gate is a completely gravity-free environment. So everything can be suspended in its place, and as long as you don't touch it, it won't move. At this time, right in front of us is a wall made up of countless treasures. There are so many treasures that we can't even count, floating around us. The scene is really spectacular.
"Are these all treasures from heaven?" He looked at the treasure that had no edge at all. My excited heartbeat began to rise unconsciously.
Ao Lai explained: "The things you see are all stored here by Heaven, but these are not treasures. At most, they can only be regarded as some equipment, and they are equipment that is not commonly used."
"Then you mean that the treasure of heaven is not here?"
"Of course the real treasures of Heaven are not here." Ao Lai said seriously: "If there are treasures, of course we will use them. How can we hide them here? Those better equipments are all in the hands of the great gods. It is impossible. exist in places like this. However, there are also some particularly powerful things that have not been used due to special reasons or because there is no suitable user. Those are the real treasures. Of course, those things cannot be placed here, but There is a dedicated storage spot.”
"Then can I go and have a look?"
"This is not something I can decide." Ao Lai said, "Those real treasures are guarded by others."
Taishang Laojun also said at this time: "If you want to see Ziri, I can take you there, but let me explain first, those are very valuable things, if you want to take them away. At most two items may be It’s going to offset all the rewards this time.”
I glanced at Taishang Laojun and said: "Now we are just counting the supplies. I did not say that we have to decide now. When the time comes, I will still go to the Jade Emperor and negotiate with the Great Ri Tathagata. Don't give me a price directly."
"Okay, okay, I'll be responsible for guiding you anyway. You and the Jade Emperor will decide the specifics."
Because Taishang Laojun nodded, Ao Lai took us directly out of this place full of stars, and then walked to the other end of the new moon. One end of this crescent-shaped land area is the cave entrance, the middle position is the starry sky gate, and the remaining end is another passage.
With Ao Lai leading us, we quickly walked out of the maze-like passage here. It is said that this place is a maze, and those who enter will have all their attributes suppressed. Unless you can find a way out, you will be trapped and die inside, because it is useless to have all your power here, because It can't be used at all.
Ao Lai knew the detailed route here, so he reached his destination directly without taking any detours.
What is protected after this maze is also a cave, but it is different from the previous one. This is a pointed cone-shaped cave. The top of the cave is small and very high, while the bottom is getting bigger and bigger. The bottom of the cave is a huge circular area with a diameter of more than 100 meters, and the height above is at least 40 meters. A beam of light is projected from the ceiling of the cave above and shines on the center of the cave bottom. At that place, there is a huge golden lotus blooming on the ground, and sitting on top of this golden lotus is a It is more appropriate to sit on a person, or should I say, a great god, because even Taishang Laojun and Ao Lai did not dare to breathe loudly when they arrived here.
Seeing the reactions of Ao Lai and Taishang Laojun, I didn't dare to speak out. Everyone knows the identity of Taishang Laojun. That Ao Lai can be a guard in a place like this, and his status is not too bad. But these two people dare not even take a breath in front of this person who is above the golden lotus. , then isn’t the person above on the same level as Master Hongjun? Because I seem to think that the last time Master Hongjun was in heaven, Taishang Laojun was not so nervous. Could it be that this person has a bad temper?
Just as I was thinking about it, the person above suddenly reacted.
