Chapter 772 I Can't Leave the Sacred Mountain, You Take a Flower with You

"Maybe that senior is still alive."

Chen Chao thought for a long time before suddenly speaking. He really didn't want the woman in front of him to be so sad.

The woman glanced at Chen Chao. The frustration and sadness in her eyes still did not dissipate. Instead, she shook her head and said in despair, "You don't understand his pride. If he was still alive, how could he throw away his knife."

"Even if the knife breaks, he won't drop it."

The woman's eyes were full of nostalgia, "How much he loves his sword, how could I not know?"

Chen Chao opened his mouth. What the woman said was clear and coherent. He really didn't know what to say to refute her.

"You don't have to be like this. I already knew he was dead. If not, he would never have stopped looking for me for so long."

The woman glanced at Chen Chao, suddenly smiled and said, "You look a bit like him."

Chen Chao asked, "Where did that senior go?"

What Chen Chao can now confirm is that the previous owner of Broken Sword was an extremely remarkable person. Such a person would fight to the point of breaking the sword one day. Based on this alone, he knew what happened to him.

The woman did not answer the question, but walked slowly to the lake and said, "Do you know how many years I have been here?"

Chen Chao glanced at Xilu. Xilu was still standing there. He didn't know what he was thinking. Chen Chao came to the lake and said, "Senior..."

"Don't call me so old. If you want, you can call me sister."

The woman turned her head and glanced at Chen Chao, with a smile in her eyes.

Chen Chao was a little at a loss.

"Do you think I'm not worthy of being your sister?"

The woman glanced at Chen Chao, her eyes full of dissatisfaction.

Chen Chao opened his mouth, and finally hesitated for a moment, "Sister, I'm afraid she has lived for more than a thousand years."

The woman nodded, "I didn't calculate it carefully, but it has been more than a thousand years."

Although Chen Chao had already suspected it, he was still shocked when he heard the woman in front of him admit it.

She was different from the girl he had met in the coffin. She was not sleeping, no matter what, but she was alive.

Her realm is no longer fathomable.

"It's just that I can't get out of here."

The woman didn't hide anything. Maybe she felt that the young man in front of her was closely related to her old friend.

Chen Chao opened his mouth, "Why?"

The woman glanced at Chen Chao and did not answer the question, but asked, "How is the scenery outside? Tell me, the last time I heard this was hundreds of years ago."

Chen Chao nodded, but did not refuse. He slowly talked about external matters and the current situation in the world. He spoke slowly and seriously.

The woman was surprised and said, "How can that dynasty in Daliang be so powerful now?"

Chen Chao nodded and said with a smile, "It's because there was a great emperor."

The woman glanced at Chen Chao and said something meaningful, "What some eyes see is not always true. There are many things that need to be peeled away layer by layer."

Chen Chao frowned.

"Don't frown, it doesn't look good."

The woman reached out to smooth Chen Chao's brow and said softly, "The last time he came here, he also told me a lot about the outside world. I also yearn for the outside world. After all, I have been here for too long and I am a little tired of it." , it’s a pity that you can come and leave, but I can’t go out.”

A sacred mountain may be a paradise in the eyes of many people, but for a woman, it is just a prison in which she is imprisoned.

Before Chen Chao spoke, the woman finally answered the previous question. She slowly said, "He came and stayed with me for a while, and I fell in love with him, but he always wanted to leave and couldn't grow up with me here." Together, I can't keep him. He said he would come to look for me again, but after waiting for so many years, I knew he wouldn't come. Now that his knife is in your hands, I know even more that he won't come. "

The woman looked at Chen Chao and said, "So if you like someone, don't let go of her hand. It's better to take her with you wherever you go. It's better to die together than to never see each other again across thousands of mountains and rivers."

After saying this, the woman looked at Xilu over there and raised her eyebrows slightly.

Chen Chao noticed the woman's movements, shook his head and said, "I don't like her."

"Of course I can see that, but you should also have a woman you like."

The woman stretched out her finger and touched his forehead.

The woman's affectionate attitude toward him made Chen Chao a little at a loss, but he quickly asked, "Sister, what on earth is this place?"

The woman nodded and said, "Holy Mountain, many years ago, there was no so-called dynasty in this world. The monks you mentioned have established many sects in this world. The most remarkable ones among them will be called Sacred Mountain, which is similar to The existence of infatuation in your mouth."

The woman said softly, "There were four sacred mountains at that time, and this one was called the Northern Sacred Mountain."

Having said this, the woman glanced at Chen Chao again and said softly, "I am the goddess of this sacred mountain."

When the word "goddess" was spoken, there was a hint of sadness in the woman's eyes.

Chen Chao couldn't help but think of the murals he had seen on the corridor before, and he couldn't help but ask.

The goddess looked at him, nodded and said, "Yes, that is the destination of the goddesses of all ages."

"

It's just that I was lucky and escaped the destined fate, but other fates are not necessarily easy. "

The goddess shook her head. Things in the past were too complicated, and some of them she didn't want to mention.

Chen Chao asked, "Is this sacred mountain destroyed because of a sword immortal?"

He had seen those sword energies before, but there was no trace here.

The goddess glanced at Chen Chao and said, "That's the guy you're talking about. He's here to find the magic medicine."

"Magic medicine?"

Xi Lu, who had been silent until now, suddenly spoke and looked this way.

The goddess said calmly, "Each of the four sacred mountains has a magical medicine. That guy came with a sword just to steal the magical medicine."

"Since the Four Sacred Mountains were already the most powerful sects at that time, why could the Sword Immortal break in so easily?"

Chen Chao had some questions and wanted to get answers from the goddess.

The goddess shook her head and said, "Although that man is strong, it is still impossible to destroy the Holy Mountain in the North with him alone. At that time, all the strong men in our holy mountain came out, and there were no strong ones left behind, so he took advantage of it." ”

"Then did he take away the magic medicine in the end?"

Xilu looked at the goddess with some urgency.

The sword fairy entered this sacred mountain, and I am afraid that he has achieved his wish.

The goddess looked at Xi Lu, shook her head and said, "It was unlucky for him to come. At that time, the magic medicine had matured and yielded fruit and was picked."

A miracle medicine often needs to be picked in time when it matures, and another one needs to be planted when the time comes.

"One miraculous medicine can take away countless fortunes. It is absolutely impossible to plant two miraculous medicines at the same time. Moreover, the seeds of miraculous medicine are hard to come by."

The goddess spoke patiently and told these two people some secrets.

"what about now?"

Xilu looked at the goddess and asked, "Is there any more magic medicine?"

The goddess looked at her and asked curiously, "Do you want it?"

Xilu said, "I'm willing to trade everything."

The goddess smiled and said, "Do you think you have anything that can compare to this magical medicine?"

Xilu was speechless for a moment.

This magical medicine can be said to be the most precious thing in the world. There is nothing else that can compare with it.

Chen Chao was a little curious as to why Xilu was so obsessed with this so-called miracle medicine.

"Anyway, I want the magic medicine."

Xilu is very determined and has an attitude that he must win the magic medicine.

The goddess glanced at her and shook her head, not caring what the little girl said. She pointed to the hut over there and said calmly, "Even if you want it, it's useless because it's not mature yet."

In front of the thatched house, there was a flower garden. There were no other flowers and plants in the flower garden, only a small grass.

It looks very ordinary.

Chen Chao took a look and asked with some disbelief, "Is that the magic medicine?"

The goddess nodded, "Yes, but it is not mature yet. It will take more than a hundred years, maybe longer, but it may not be faster, so even if she wants it now, she can't get it."

"But I won't give it to you either."

The goddess looked at Xi Lu and said, "Little girl, there are not so many things that we should take for granted in the world. There are many things that you will definitely achieve if you want them."

Xilu said, "In a hundred years, I will come and get it."

The goddess laughed it off.

Chen Chao was a little amazed at the goddess's good temper. If she had a worse temper, Xilu would have been killed by now.

The goddess looked at Chen Chao and asked, "If you want, you can come and see it a hundred years later."

Chen Chao smiled bitterly, "How dare I get my hands on such a precious thing."

The goddess smiled and said, "I don't know for sure. I may not need this thing by then. If you need it, you can take it."

Chen Chao suddenly realized.

The goddess in front of him seemed to be too kind to him.

"I have a question, sister. Now there are no traces of these sacred mountains, nor of those sects that once existed. Their traces do not even exist in history books. It is difficult to find any trace of them now. Because?"

Chen Chao has always been puzzled about this matter, and he really wants to know the answer.

Chen Chao had always suspected that there was an invisible big hand in the dark doing something.

The goddess looked at him and shook her head.

Chen Chao asked unwillingly, "Why?"

The goddess hesitated, but after thinking for a long time, she just said, "If you take another step forward one day and come to me again, I will tell you the answer, but now that you know these things, it is not a big deal for you." Good thing."

Chen Chao wanted to say something more, but the goddess shook her head again, "Don't ask, I won't tell you."

Chen Chao had no choice but to give up, but he also felt regretful.

The goddess stood by the lake and looked at him with a smile, "Sometimes, living a life in a daze is not necessarily a bad thing."

Chen Chao said, "I would rather die sober."

"Don't talk about death easily. Living is the most meaningful thing in this world. Death makes everything meaningless."

The goddess looked at Chen Chao in front of her and said with a smile, "You are still very young. Why do you need to think about what will happen in the future now?"

Chen Chao remained silent.

Instinctively, he frowned again.

But soon the goddess reached out and touched her forehead.

Chen Chao stepped back and asked, "How did martial artists practice in my sister's time?"

Chen Chao had heard about this elixir before at the site of the Rongshan Sect, and it was later confirmed that Wufu could indeed practice Taoism at the time.

The goddess whispered, "The killing power of a swordsman is unparalleled in the world, but at that time, the most terrifying thing was the martial artist."

Chen Chao was a little distracted.

If sword cultivators have the most terrifying killing power among monks, then martial arts warriors are the most terrifying monks of that era. They have the most powerful physiques and a killing power that is not inferior to that of sword cultivators. At that time Whether it is the monks of the Holy Mountain or other sects, they all attach great importance to cultivating martial arts. A high-level martial artist is the confidence of a sect.

"Looking at the flow of your energy, there is no trace of Taoism. In your era, it seems that you have taken a new path."

The goddess looked at Chen Chao and said, "If you want the martial arts practice, I can give you the classics from the sacred mountain."

The Northern Sacred Mountain was one of the original four sacred mountains, and their practice books would definitely be the top ones at that time.

Chen Chao shook his head.

The goddess looked at him and did not force him. She just smiled and said, "It seems that you have very lofty ambitions."

"Is it Yuanda? I can't say, but I just want to make a living."

Chen Chao's eyes were firm. The martial artist was looked down upon by the world. There were countless people who looked at the martial artist coldly in this world.

The goddess nodded, "It's either good or good. Only the right one is good. You have to understand this."

Chen Chao nodded and exhaled a breath.

Rejecting the goddess actually requires a lot of courage.

The goddess said calmly, "You still have some time, don't worry."

This sentence was somewhat inexplicable, but Chen Chao felt that it had a lot of meaning.

Xilu, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly asked, "How should we leave?"

Since he can't get the magic medicine, Xilu is not willing to stay here any longer. He will leave this place and come back when the magic medicine is mature.

The goddess ignored Xi Lu, but looked at Chen Chao and asked, "Don't you want to accompany your sister anymore?"

Chen Chao said, "I'm not in a hurry to leave. After all, as soon as I walk out of here, this little girl will fight me to the death."

Xilu frowned when he heard the title of little girl.

The goddess smiled slightly and said, "It's a fight, but don't show any emotions like this."

Chen Chao smiled and said, "I don't like tigresses."

Xi Lu narrowed his eyes, murderous intent emerged.

The goddess was also a little dissatisfied and said, "You are not good at talking to a little girl like that."

Chen Chao said nothing.

…

…

"That's all, I'm used to being alone for so many years, what can you do if you stay a few more days?"

The goddess quickly changed her mind, but then she looked at Xilu and said, "Little girl, when you get outside, don't tell anyone what happened here."

Xilu didn't answer.

The goddess looked at Xi Lu quietly, and after a moment, she smiled calmly and said, "Little girl, don't be so stubborn sometimes. I don't know if you have heard of this saying, which is to listen to others and eat enough."

Xilu remained silent.

The goddess finally sighed and said, "If you don't promise me, then I will kill you."

This sentence was said lightly, but the weight in it was even clear to Xilu at this moment. This goddess had been gentle from the beginning, but now, although she didn't have murderous intent when she spoke, she was like a mountain rising toward her. Come to the west.

Xi Lu's face instantly turned pale.

Chen Chao was happy to watch the show. The tiger bitch who had screamed and killed him when she saw him before was now taken care of, right?

very nice.

Half a quarter of an hour later, the goddess smiled and said, "It seems that you have promised me, Xiao Chen, come here, sister, I will say a few words to you again."

After the goddess said this, she didn't care about Xilu, but walked towards the hut.

Chen Chao followed without hesitation, while Xilu stood there with an indifferent expression.

The two came to the hut, where there was a flower garden, in which the magic medicine grew alone.

The goddess waved her hand casually, and some water drops fell on the magic medicine from her fingertips, which was regarded as irrigating it.

Chen Chao looked at the magic medicine that was no different from ordinary weeds and couldn't help but marvel. The magic medicine in front of him could actually be said to be a return to nature.

It doesn't have much special meaning.

The goddess said, "It's just not mature yet. When it matures, it will naturally be radiant. In the past, when it matured, it was often necessary for the strong men of the sacred mountain to work together to block the aura, otherwise many people would know about it."

The goddess looked at Chen Chao, smiled and asked, "Is the woman you like a sword cultivator?"

Chen Chao was a little surprised, wondering how the goddess in front of him knew.

"Some special aura, very familiar. He should be a good swordsman, but his level is a bit low."

The goddess smiled to herself and said, "I shouldn't be able to defeat you now, but it's hard to say in the future."

Chen Chao was ashamed, feeling like he was being seen through. The other person seemed to be able to see everything about him clearly.

"A gift for the sister I have never met."

The goddess stretched out her palm, and the palm automatically condensed into a small sword. The whole body rippled, as if there was water flowing in it.

"It's a sword embryo. I don't know if your sword cultivators still have such a thing."

The goddess reached out and touched his eyebrows, and the sword embryo fell into his eyebrows. Then the goddess said with satisfaction, "Save it with you first. When you see her, remember to give it to her for me."

Chen Chao smiled bitterly and said, "Why is sister so nice to me?"

When they met for the first time, the attitude shown by the goddess was enough to surprise Chen Chao.

Now she gave something to Xie Nandu, whom she had not met.

The goddess smiled and said, "It's just fate. I don't like that little girl, but I like you very much, otherwise I wouldn't recognize you as my brother."

Chen Chao thought about it, and finally felt that it was probably because of Yunni.

After all, the person the goddess liked was the owner of the knife.

"Yeah, I don't know what the relationship between you and him is, but since you can get this knife, it means that there must be a fate between us, what do you think?"

The goddess smiled at Chen Chao.

Chen Chao didn't know what to say.

The goddess looked into Chen Chao's eyes and suddenly said, "In fact, at this moment, I even think that he may still be alive. Maybe one day, I can meet him again."

Chen Chao nodded, "I also hope that my sister can really meet that senior one day."

"If the sky has feelings, it will never let lovers separate."

Chen Chao suddenly thought of a sentence he had seen in a book before, and I don't know why, he said it out loud at this moment.

The goddess murmured repeatedly, "If there is love in the heavens... it's really well said."

"For what you said, I'll give you something too?"

Chen Chao did not answer this question, but asked, "Is my sister also a sword fairy?"

Although he did not detect any aura from the goddess, he did not know why, at this moment, he did feel that the woman in front of him should be a sword fairy.

"Guess?"

The goddess looked at Chen Chao with a smile, as if she was not going to give him an answer.

Chen Chao sighed and said, "Then, the girl I like can't become the most amazing female sword fairy in the world?"

The goddess was amused by Chen Chao's words, and shook her head with a smile, "You are all still young and have infinite possibilities, but I am old."

Chen Chao looked at the goddess's appearance in front of him and shook his head, "Sister, who dares to say that you are old? I will be the first to give him a big slap in the face."

"Yo yo yo, I think the girl you like was deceived by your mouth."

"Sister, don't you think I am pretty?"

"You are much worse than him."

"How can your mouth say such cold words?"

Chen Chao pretended to be wronged. At this moment, he seemed to have returned to the time in Tianqing County and felt a little relaxed.

Probably because the goddess in front of him was too friendly.

"Slippery little rascal."

The goddess reached out and tapped Chen Chao's eyebrows again, and whispered, "If you like someone, you should say the love words you should say and do the things you should do, otherwise how would she know?"

Before Chen Chao spoke, the goddess continued to talk to herself, "The relationship between you two is not transparent. You think that the other person knows everything you think, but it may not be the case."

Chen Chao sighed, "Sister seems to know everything."

"Remember one thing, don't be self-righteous."

The goddess glanced at Chen Chao and said, "I have liked someone for hundreds of years."

Chen Chao nodded and said, "Hundreds of years is really a long time."

"But as long as I am alive, I will continue to like him, maybe for a thousand years, maybe two thousand years, until the day I die."

The goddess's eyes were firm.

"Will it be too painful?"

For the rest of my life, I always feel too lonely alone.

"People live because of some thoughts. Without these thoughts, they can't live. But when I think that if I die today, I will never see him again, I don't want to die."

Chen Chao didn't know what to say, but he admired the goddess in front of him.

The goddess suddenly stretched out her hand, and a white flower suddenly appeared in her palm. She looked at the flower with complicated emotions in her eyes. After an unknown amount of time, she raised her head with tears in her eyes.

"I can't leave the sacred mountain, you take a flower with you."
