《Ancient God (Ancient Love Poetry)》Chapter 51: Prelude
Advertisement
The hidden mountain is very quiet, as cold as usual for a hundred years.
Baili walked into the bamboo workshop holding the egg and saw the figure with his eyes closed and contemplation in front of the desk. He stepped lightly and put the egg on the table as he was about to come out. When he turned around, he saw that Hou Chi had already opened. The eyes opened and stopped.
Those eyes were deep and cold, and they were a little bit dazed. For a hundred years, he had never seen Hou Chi look like this before. After a pause, he stepped forward and whispered,
"Master."
After returning to his senses, Hou Chi saw Baili standing not far from her, his face wrinkled, his expression worried, and she couldn't help but smile
"What's the matter?"
Baili breathed a sigh of relief, pointed to the egg on the table, and touched his nose
"I took him for a walk just now and felt him shake."
After hearing the words, Hou Chi was stunned, and hurriedly picked up the egg on the table, closed his eyes and wrapped it in a ray of divine consciousness. After a while, he opened his eyes, with an unconcealable surprise in his expression
"Baili, he will come out on shell soon."
Baili immediately squinted his eyes and hurriedly said,
"I'll tell Bibo, that kid will definitely lose his joy.
After running two steps, he noticed something was wrong, turned and walked back suspiciously,
"Master, when Master Jing Yuan came last time, he said that he had at least ten years to come out of the shell, so why is it so fast all of a sudden? There will be no problems, right?"
Baili opened his eyes wide, looking at the egg in Hou Chi's hand, and tried to pick it up, but put it down again.
After a while, Hou Chi's expression paused, and his eyes flashed sadly. Seeing Baili's worry, he said after a long time
"He is the soul power of me and Qing Mu. Now the spiritual power is greatly increased, and the shell is broken early. There are only two possibilities... ..."
Seemingly tired to the extreme, Hou Chi smiled "My spiritual power has soared or... Qing Mu has been promoted."
Yesterday, when she heard the news from Jing Yuan, she felt ridiculous at first, and then at a loss.
She had doubted the origin of Qing Mu, but she never thought that he turned out to be Bai Jue, one of the Four True Gods of the ancient times. Let alone that the first thing that Bai Jue will do after he wakes up is actually marrying Jing Zhao.
Without even thinking about it, she could guess the shock that the True God's awakening brought to the Three Realms and the wedding three months later that everyone rushed in, just like her marriage request.
The ancient true gods only existed in legends, and the ruler above the Three Realms, even the Heavenly Emperor, could hardly be compared with him.
But, how about him Qing Mu? Bai Jue woke up, where did Qing Mu go?
No one would ask this question while Bai Jue awakened. It's just a gentleman, it's too insignificant compared to the true god Bai Jue, everyone would think so.
Baili has been in Hidden Mountain for a hundred years. He has long known the reason why Hou Chi appeared in the mountain. He also knows that a hundred years later, it will be her return date. Now when he hears this, it is only a daze, and he said

"Could it be that Lord Qing Mu is....? Promoted?"
Hou Chi nodded, put the egg back into Baili's hands, and whispered softly
"He has been promoted." Not only that, but he also restored his identity as a true god.
Baili didn't seem to be overjoyed when he saw Hou Chi, and asked,
"Master, what happened?"
Hou Chi got up and stood in front of the Soul Suppressing Tower. In the tower, Bo Xuan's eyes were still closed, and the aquamarine flame burned on him, which had not been extinguished for a hundred years.
Looking at Hou Chi, he suddenly felt a little tired
"It's nothing big, Baili, the 100-year period is almost here, after I leave, I will hand the Hidden Mountain to you, these years, although you have no immortal fate, but the formation has grown a lot, and my barrier outside the hidden mountain can keep this place safe."
Baili has long known that this day is not far away, but after a hundred years of getting along with each other, his eyes were a little red, and he straightened his shoulders and said respectfully
"Master, I will inherit the hidden mountain. Go down, if you come back one day, you will surely see a stronger hidden mountain."
"Whatever you want, but... the things I left for you are too bad, don't let Hidden Mountain intervene in mortal disputes at will."
Baili nodded, walked out with the egg in his arms, and walked to the door, not knowing what he thought, suddenly turned his head, looked at the cold back of Hou Chi, and called
"Master."
Hou Chi gave an 'uhm', and didn't turn around.
"You asked me when my father passed away...'Will you regret choosing to cultivate immortality?'
Baili Qin Chuan's voice was a little low, completely different from the usual escape.
When Hou Chi turned around, she saw a pair of dark eyes Looking at him intently, the corners of the young man's mouth curled up, his expression firm and serious.
When the old prince passed away, she once asked Baili this question. At that time, the young man did not answer her, but went back to the northwest in silence and returned half a year later.
"My eldest brother told me that my father was enjoying his twilight years, he was free from illness and disaster, and he was peaceful when he left."
Baili Qin Chuan paused and continued
"Although I don't regret it, I still regret that I didn't accompany my father to the end. After that, I realized that some people will not wait for you in place. The most helpless thing in the world is the three words "It's too late", Master, you can cut yourself off for the sake of Immortal Bo Xuan and exile for a hundred years. , Then you have missed Lord Qing Mu for a hundred years, it must be worth your return."
There is only so much he can say.
After Baili finished speaking, he turned around and walked out. Under the sun, his back seemed to be stained with a thin layer of light, strong and tough.
Hou Chi stared at him blankly, only to realize that for a hundred years, Baili, whom she had always regarded as a child, had become so mature by her inadvertently.
In addition to bringing a message yesterday, Jing Yuan also asked her if she would like to go back now, but she declined.
In today's Three Realms, besides Jing Yuan, there is another person who can travel through time and space at will. Maybe... she is holding this expectation and is unwilling to believe in the facts that Jing Yuan said, so she rejects his proposal and insists on staying the last six months in the hidden mountains.

But Baili is right, the most helpless thing in the world is 'It's too late'. No matter whether it is Qing Mu or Bai Jue after the promotion, she stays here and will never find the answer.
Hou Chi lifted his eyes to look at the Soul Suppressing Tower, the figure in the ice coffin still looked peaceful.
She whispered and said "Bo Xuan, it's time for us to go back."
After half a month, Jing Yuan once again set foot on the hidden mountain, and was slightly taken aback when he saw Hou Chi where he was sitting under the tree.
But only half a month later, she swept away the previous decadence, and her whole body revealed a tenacious and unshakable aura.
"You are here."
Hou Chi raised her head and saw Jing Yuan who was not far away fixedly looking at her, smiled, and waved his hand
"I just set the chess game. Why don't I have another game at the end!"
Jing Yuan raised his eyebrows, stepped forward, sat down, and saw Hou Chi holding the black and white sons in both hands. He was happily finished and said, "You must have a good time."
"Wait for you, of course I have to do something to kill the time." Without raising his eyes, Hou Chi stared straight at the white characters that had fallen from Jing Yuan, frowned, and pondered.
"You think about it."
Jing Yuan was taken aback, and dropped a little randomly, giving Hou Chi a chance to comeback, and the person on the other side immediately smiled.
"Naturally."
Hou Chi said, taking advantage of Jing Yuan's flashing god's opportunity to attack the city again and again.
"Okay, okay, let you win, that is, what kind of brains are you, it has been a hundred years, and the chess is still so stinky."
Jing Yuan raised his hand to say forgiveness, dropped chess in his hand, and paused. And seriously said
"Hou Chi, are you really ready to go back?."
Although he told Hou Chi about Qing Mu's promotion to the throne, he wanted Hou Chi to go back and face it, but when Hou Chi really made a decision, she was a little bit hesitant. In fact, if he could be like this one hundred years in the future, it would be better. not bad.
"There are things I have to face sooner or later, Jing Yuan, I have always wanted to ask you."
Hou Chi suddenly raised her head and looked at Jing Yuan, her eyes burning
"If Qing Mu is Bai Jue, then...who are you?"
Being able to travel through the turbulent time and space at will, Jing Yuan's identity is almost ready to emerge...
Jing Yuan raised his eyes, his handsome face was full of charm, and the corners of his mouth were curled up, and he smiled
"Why, I finally want to know who I am?"
"I don't want to."
Hou Chi replied very quickly, settled the last one, and stood up
"It's just one of those people."
She walked towards Jing Yuan, a faint voice came.
"Pick me up in three days."
Jing Yuan watched her walking away, the streamer slowly overflowing in her eyes.
Hou Chi, are you really sure... can you still recall Qing Mu?
That night.
Baili hugged the egg and Bibo chatted in the yard, and asked him to pay attention to things after returning. Although Bibo didn't like these trivial things, he sat down beside Baili honestly and listened. He ordered.
Sitting in the bamboo workshop, Hou Chi squinted to watch them talk. Suddenly, he seemed to feel something. She suddenly turned his head and looked at the ice coffin in the soul-supressing tower. There, Bo Xuan closed his eyes tightly without any change.
A faint doubt appeared in Hou Chi's eyes. She had just felt that someone was watching her in a daze. Could it be... just an illusion?
Qingchi Palace
The winter snow pressed on the branches, crystal clear and teetering.
It is like a country of ice and snow, cold and lonely, only a figure sitting there quietly under the most central ancient tree, the space around him seems to be frozen, snowflakes have slipped from the ancient robe, and when they fell on the ground, they instantly turned into snow.
In the extreme silence, the sound of low footsteps sounded, step by step, it seemed to be knocking in the bottom of my heart.
God Gu Jun opened his eyes and looked at the uninvited guest who suddenly appeared in the back mountain. He did not ignore it like the Heavenly Empress when he was here, but stood up and nodded lightly.
"Gu Jun, don't come here unharmed."
Jing Yuan's voice sounded not far from the ancient tree.
Gu Jun smiled on his brows, but there was no smile in his eyes, but the whole person was stiff and hesitant because of his existence.
If anyone is here, they will definitely be frightened by the solemn appearance of God Gu Jun at this time, even God Gu Jun who can remain calm when the True God Bai Jue wakes up, will be such a big enemy.
The visitor was dressed in a purple robe, with a handsome face full of the beauty of the world, long black hair scattered behind him, long gilt fur draped on his shoulders, dragged on the ground, brushing the ice and snow, luxurious and noble.
The dark pupils were imprinted with the ethereal world, just like Bai Jue's expression when he looked down on the world.
He looked at God Gu Jun indifferently, and said with a smile
"It's been tens of thousands of years since I saw you last time, Gu Jun, you are very old."
"It's not comparable to the divine power that I have to live forever. Master has always live in Ziyue Mountain. How can you come to Qingchi Palace today."
It was still overwhelmed by the coercion of Jing Yuan.
"Gu Jun, I won't go in circles with you. Mu Guang is the choice of Shang Gu. These years, I have lived in the Ziyue Mountain without coming out. As for helping the Demon Realm, it was the Demon Emperor who asked me to come to and I will not interfere."
There was a cold feeling of coldness in Jing Yuan's words. Gu Jun was taken aback when he heard him. In order to help the Demon Realm he did not hesitate to destroy a hundred thousand immortal soldiers, he has been secretly deploying continuously over the years, how can he suddenly say this?
Isn't it possible that something has changed... Thinking of the Hou Chi that has been exiled for a hundred years, Gu Jun suddenly felt uneasy in his heart.
"Bai Jue has woken up. I think you guessed his identity when you first knew that he inherited the Taicang Spear. Therefore, only a hundred-year agreement will be made for him."
Jing Yuan looked at Gu Jun in his uneasy voice. There was a little smile in the middle, and the eyebrows were raised slightly
"But I want to accept her love."
There was a sense of danger in the deep laughter, Gu Jun paused, the stiffness in his eyes disappeared, and he took a few steps forward, but he was blocked when he was one meter away from Jing Yuan. The gloom between his eyebrows became even worse, rickety. With his shoulders straightened, he looked at Jing Yuan, and said
"Master, what do you mean by this? Hou Chi's matter has nothing to do with you!"
"Gu Jun, I asked you thousands of years ago if you have traces of Shang Gu. Do you still remember how you returned to me?"
Jing Yuan turned around abruptly, and looked at Gu Jun's eyes with icy coldness, revealing a slight invisible chill, completely devoid of the gentleness and harmlessness of facing Hou Chi.
A faint purple light waved from his hand and fell on Gu Jun. Gu Jun's face suddenly became pale, and he knelt to the ground with a muffled grunt.
"Master...Master...I don't know..." Gu Jun panted, unable to say a word under the cover of purple light.
"Don't think that you have the Power of Chaos, you can resist my True God origin."
Jing Yuan looked at him coldly, and said word by word
"Bai Jue just woke up, you know not to offend him, but you were at the beginning. How dare to deceive me by hiding Shang Gu in Qingchi Palace for tens of thousands of years. If she hadn't touched the sword tomb in Daze Mountain a hundred years ago, I would never have known that she still exists in the world..."
"I won't kill you. Just because you raised her up, are her closest relatives in this life. "
Jing Yuan lowered his head, and the dark pupils suddenly burned with purple light
"However, there are some things that you have enjoyed for tens of thousands of years, and it is time to return. "
When the words settled, he took a deep look at Gu Jun, and then disappeared into the snow.
The cold voice still echoed in his ears, Gu Jun loosened his body and collapsed to the ground, looking at the disappeared figure, a wry smile crossed his mouth.
Sure enough, he deserves to be a fully awakened True God, and he has no resistance to it, but I don't know how the awakened Qing Mu compares?
Even though he already knew the identity of Hou Chi, he must have been with Hou Chi for a hundred years. Could this be the reason why he gave up sweeping the Three Realms?
What are the entanglements of the Four True Gods in ancient times??
God Gu Jun looked at the white snow, his eyes were unclear...
Is everything back? He opened his hand, and his decayed and old skin suddenly became smooth and soft, just like a young man.
How do you know that I enjoy all this with peace of mind.
He raised his eyes and looked out of the mountain, his gaze seemed to fall in one place through the vast sea of clouds.
There, the Abyssal River, the wild swamp, and the place where the True God Bai Jue lived after waking up.
