Chapter 289: The Lord of the Fallen Immortal
"Young friend, please come in!" Grandpa Cheng extended his hand and invited him again.
Lu Ran walked into the Jingxian Hall and looked around.
There were thousands of small holes dug out on the walls on both sides of the hall.
In each small cave, there is a small jade sculpture of a fairy sheep.
It has the same texture as the white jade sculpture that Lu Ran brought home.
The jade carvings of fairy sheep have various postures, are lifelike and incredibly exquisite.
Placed in this huge Jingxian Hall, they look like figurines.
Lu Ran also realized a problem!
These fairy sheep figurines are not all friendly, but most of them have ferocious faces!
The jade carvings of immortal sheep on the left wall are relatively normal, but the jade carvings of immortal sheep on the right wall are all in fighting postures!
Lu Ran was amazed by what he saw.
Grandpa Cheng said, "We have recorded all the grace and demeanor of Immortal Sheep when he saved us."
Lu Ran nodded secretly, thinking to himself, as expected!
On the way here, Lu Ran learned some information from Cheng Rou.
Grandpa Cheng has a very nice name - Cheng Yi.
Cheng Yi is the second son in the family and has four brothers, namely Cheng Ren, Cheng Li, Cheng Zhi and Cheng Xin.
They are natives of Yeyu City, Cainan Province, and the family lives in a secluded mountain village.
Since the advent of evil spirits, the peaceful life has been disrupted.
Just when everyone was hiding from place to place and living in despair, the Immortal Sheep Lord arrived in Yeyu City.
At this point, the five brothers of the Cheng family became believers of Lord Xianyang.
They were the first disciples of the Xianyang Sect, and they followed the Lord God to resist the invasion of evil spirits.
Lu Ran came to the prayer mat and worshipped the large stone statue of the immortal sheep: "Master Immortal Sheep, I am honored to see your heroic presence.
Protect the human race and repel the evil spirits.
It seems that you were also a fighting sheep back then."
Cheng Yi: “.”
Cheng Rou was startled and turned to look at her grandfather with a worried look on her face.
Is this junior brother so respectful to God?
How dare he speak to God like that?
There won't be any problem.
Cheng Yi remained calm. Seeing that the stone statue of the immortal sheep was silent and had no intention of blaming him, he did not say anything.
A few minutes later, Lu Ran slowly stood up and turned his head to look at the right wall again.
Cheng Yi, with his hands behind his back, also looked at the wall of "fighting sheep" and sighed:
“Back then, if the Immortal Sheep Master hadn’t appeared, our village would have been slaughtered by the evil spirits.
We remember every movement and gesture of the gods.
So, there is this wall.”
Lu Ran nodded silently.
How can I repay such great kindness?
It is no wonder that a man with such extraordinary talent as Cheng Yi worshipped the immortal sheep all his life.
When the gods first came, there was no distinction between first, second, and third class.
People at that time were experiencing the crisis of genocide and extinction, and every god who came to the world was a life-saving straw for mankind.
"Let's go, little friend." Cheng Yi called out, "Let's go for a walk outside."
"Yes." Lu Ran took a deep look at the right wall and followed Cheng Yi out of the hall.
The huge venue was empty, making it a perfect place for chatting and walking.
After Cheng Yi sent his granddaughter away, he took Lu Ran and paced around the venue:
"My dear Lu, are you used to living here?"
"It's a habit." Lu Ran said immediately, "Thank you, Grandpa Cheng, for taking care of me."
Cheng Yi waved his hand: "We are family, so we should not talk about different things."
Lu Ran's heart moved slightly.
Are you family?
Indeed, with Lord Immortal Sheep above, Lu Ran and every Immortal Sheep believer are “family members”.
Lu Ran said, "Grandpa Cheng, I see that you are still powerful and sharp, which is different from other fellow disciples."
“Haha.” Cheng Yi smiled and stroked his graying beard with one hand, “Master Xianyang does have little influence on me.
Perhaps, because I am a first-generation disciple, I have the blessing of the gods."
Lu Ran pursed his lips and noticed a key piece of information:
Gods can actively choose whether to influence their believers with their own personalities!
Therefore, Jianyi believers do not have to be aloof and indifferent to everything in the world.
Therefore, believers of Lietian do not need to be violent, lose control and become mentally insane, causing harm to others and themselves!
These are all avoidable!
Oh shit
Lu Ran couldn't help but curse in his heart.
He couldn't help but recall how Sister Xian'er was extremely unstable when he first met Si Xianxian.
Things could only be worse for Si Xianxian now. After all, she worships gods every day, and her self-control should be getting weaker and weaker.
Only when she was with Lu Ran could she be more sober and relatively restrained.
"Heh." Lu Ran sighed deeply and looked at the old man beside him.
Cheng Yi is a powerful person at the fifth stage of Jiang Realm, which shows that he is extremely talented.
People like Cheng Yi would probably only follow the immortal sheep when the gods first came to the world.
If it were today, decades later, when Cheng Yi went to worship the gods again, with his talent, other gods would surely scramble for him.
The immortal goat is only a ninth-rank god, so it is not its turn to show up.
A trace of memory flashed in Cheng Yi's eyes: "In fact, the Immortal Sheep Master back then was not as low-key as he is now."
"Oh?" Lu Ran suddenly became interested. "Grandpa Cheng, can you tell me about it?"
Cheng Yi sighed: "At that time, demons were rampant and the world was in chaos. How could we deter the evildoers without thunderous means?
Lord Immortal Sheep is as swift as the wind. He saves people from danger and water, guards the demon caves, and creates shelters for them.
Fortunately, with the protection of the gods, we, a group of disciples, are following the afterimage of the immortal sheep to fight while receiving the gods' teachings.
only"
Lu Ran remained silent and listened attentively. Cheng Yi shook his head: "After the most chaotic and dark period passed, Lord Xianyang also lost his ambition to conquer the world.
It becomes humble and polite, low-key and gentle.
It was willing to hand over all the demon caves it had conquered, and it also required its disciples to be kind to others and not fight or compete with others.
As time went by, believers gradually left.”
Speaking of this, Cheng Yi, who is already in his sixties, actually had tears in his eyes.
It was hard for Lu Ran to imagine how sad Cheng Yi felt when his former comrades-in-arms, who had shared life and death with him, left the Xianyang Sect one after another.
Cheng Yi stopped and looked up at the sky: "Those people said that Lord Xianyang has changed.
In today's world, there is no way to survive without resistance. In order to survive, people have to leave.
But I think that Lord Xianyang has never changed.
It just has a compassionate heart, and at the moment of life and death of the human race, it sympathizes with all living beings."
Lu Ran remained silent, and through Cheng Yi's few words, he outlined a period of war.
It also depicts believers kneeling before the statue of the deity, begging for forgiveness from the deity, and leaving in tears.
Cheng Yi sighed, “As Master Xianyang’s ideas spread, more and more people are leaving, and few new people are willing to join the Xianyang sect.
Forty years ago, the history of struggle of the Xianyang sect was forgotten by the world.
Or maybe people didn’t pay attention in the first place.
In that era, the territory of Daxia was full of battlefields where gods led humans to fight, and each place was worth writing about.
We are just fighting in this remote area, how can we have any influence?
I almost forgot that history, until...
Cheng Yi suddenly turned around and looked at Lu Ran: "Until the night of February 15th, I saw a person.
A great Xia Tianjiao and a follower of the Immortal Sheep. "
Lu Ran was silent for a moment, then clasped his hands and said, "Lucky."
Cheng Yi stretched out his hand and corrected Lu Ran's posture: "I heard that when Mr. Lu was on the altar, the first thing he offered was the Yan paper figurine?
Later, apart from the Immortal Sheep Master, no other gods appeared?"
Following the other party's instructions, Lu Ran clenched his right fist and covered it with his left hand:
"Yes, thanks to the help of Lord Xianyang, otherwise, I would be an ordinary person now."
Cheng Yi nodded gently and said, "The right hand is on top, which is a fierce bow. It is used for mourning, provocation, and fighting between warriors to decide life and death.
The left hand is on top, which is auspicious. It means good luck, friendship and respect.
Lu Ran: “.”
In other words, I was rude to the old men and women on the way here?
Damn, I'm really going to die!
"It's okay, Mr. Lu has good intentions." Cheng Yi returned the greeting, "You are still very young, you can make many, many mistakes."
Lu Ran raised his eyebrows slightly, feeling that there was something else behind the other person's words.
Cheng Yi: "My friend, just practice peacefully in Luoxianju and listen to the teachings of the gods.
If you need anything, just let us know."
Lu Ran was silent for a moment, then said in a deep voice: "Thank you."
Since coming to Luoxian Mountain, Lu Ran has felt full of kindness and care.
"If there is nothing else, I will go to practice now." While Cheng Yi was speaking, the two of them had already circled the venue and returned to the gate of Jingxian Hall.
Lu Ran was a little surprised.
Cheng Yi did not ask too many questions, nor did he know what Lord Xianyang had instructed him.
Lu Ran thought about it and said, "Grandpa Cheng, I also want to visit Grandpa Cheng Li. Where is he?"
The five brothers of the Cheng family had different endings.
The eldest brother Cheng Ren died in battle and sacrificed a heroic death.
The second brother, Cheng Yi, is the old man in front of him, and now he is also the person in charge of Luoxian Mountain.
The third brother, Cheng Li, is also practicing in Luoxian Mountain.
The fourth brother, Cheng Zhi, left the Xianyang sect early and joined other gods.
The fifth brother, Cheng Xin, disappeared and there is no clear news of his death. His whereabouts are still unknown.
These five brothers truly lived up to the saying "Escape or die, and accept your fate."
Cheng Yi clasped his hands and bowed again: "I would like to thank Mr. Lu on behalf of my third brother, but at this moment, my third brother is in seclusion for cultivation, so it is inconvenient for us to disturb him."
Lu Ran clasped his hands and said, "Okay, I'll visit you again when Grandpa Cheng Li comes out of seclusion."
Cheng Yi glanced at Lu Ran's fist-clasping gesture and a smile appeared on his face.
His wrinkles are piled up, but he looks very kind.
Kindness is naturally real.
But underneath this appearance, Lu Ran still saw a sharp halberd.
And this "war spear" is full of gratitude and loyalty to Lord Xianyang.
Lu Ran knew clearly:
This halberd will become a powerful weapon in my hands in the years of battle to come!
Lu Ran said goodbye and left.
In front of the Jingxian Hall, Cheng Yi stood quietly.
He looked at Lu Ran's receding back, and the smile on his face became more and more sincere.
Lord of the Fallen Immortals, welcome back to the mountains.
