The Yellow River turned into countless waterfalls here. Smoke filled the air, the sound of water was like thunder, and the turbid waves were rolling endlessly. The scene was very shocking.
Ning Que stood on the bank in silence. Sangsang walked to the black rock by the river. As her bare feet landed, the sword marks on the rock gradually faded until they disappeared.
Those sword marks were left by the Sage of Sword, Liu Bai. They represented the will and decisiveness of the human world. Since she was here, she naturally wanted to erase them. Looking at this scene and thinking that the relics of the predecessors would no longer exist, Ning Que suddenly felt his heart become extremely empty. But there was no way he could change this.
He sheathed his knife and looked a little sad.
The Great River Kingdom was to the south of the surging Yellow River. Since they wanted to go to the Great River Kingdom, they had to cross the river. The river here was terrifyingly rapid, forming many hanging waterfalls at the broken parts. Ordinary people could not cross the river at all. They had to walk dozens of miles in both directions to cross the river using sheepskin gates.
Ning Que did not want to continue feeling down, because that was what Sangsang wanted to see, just as he wanted to see Sangsang become more and more like a human. He decided to do something to make himself happy again.
"Sister, I want to cross the river. Who will carry me?"
He looked at the surging river and sang happily. Sangsang had heard him sing this song when she was young. She turned to look at him and said, "Your world is really noisy."
After saying this, she walked into the river with her hands behind her back, as naturally and casually as if she was walking to a meadow. As her bare feet landed, the surging river suddenly stopped.
It was not really stopped, but the river could not get close to her. The turbid yellow river kept beating the invisible barrier at her feet, forming countless tiny bubbles.
Sangsang continued to walk into the river. The turbid waves suddenly parted, revealing the mud below. The mud instantly solidified and became smooth rocks. Her bare feet landed on the rocks like white lotus blooming.
The turbid river kept attacking from upstream, but no matter how fierce it was, not a single drop of water could fall on her indigo clothes. Her feet were not even wet.
Ning Que understood that this was her world. Looking at this magical scene, he could not help but think of the legend of Moses parting the Red Sea in that world. He led the Big Black Horse and hurriedly followed.
Two people and a horse walked into the raging river. The river water parted, and the river mud turned into stones, naturally forming a dry passage. The river water from upstream could not pass through, so it gradually piled up higher and higher. When they walked to the middle of the riverbed, on the other side of the invisible barrier, the river water was already several feet high.
Ning Que looked at the translucent water wall formed by the river beside him. He looked at the high-speed rotating water flow and the floating fine sand inside. He wanted to reach out his fingers to touch it and even wanted to put his fingers into it to feel the sand flow and water flow inside. However, he did not dare to do anything.
Such a miraculous scene was shocking and soul-stirring. He was worried that if he broke through the water wall, the river would pour onto his body.
He was already a powerhouse in the Knowing Destiny State, but he still did not dare to confront the river head-on, because the power in the river came from nature, which was not something that ordinary humans could compete with.
Sangsang looked calm, with no trace of seriousness or vigilance. She walked slowly in front of the water wall with her hands clasped behind her back, as if she was walking in a beautiful meadow.
Only Haotian could defeat nature.
The yellow water wall grew higher and higher until it blocked the sun in the sky. The stone passage at the bottom of the river became extremely dark, and the Big Black Horse's eyes gradually showed fear.
Ning Que was also very worried that the water wall would collapse. He was even more worried that if the water wall continued to rise and did not collapse, there would inevitably be a flood upstream, and the people on both sides of the river would suffer a disaster.
The yellow water wall finally collapsed, and a straight white wave appeared in the middle of the raging river. In an instant, the passage at the bottom of the river and the two people and the horse inside were submerged.
Ning Que was not swallowed by the river, and his body was not even wet. The yellow water wall collapsed, but did not fall down, and instead flowed over the river.
The passage turned into a cave in the river, and the walls of the cave were all condensed by the river water. They walked in the cave, and the light was dim, but they could clearly see every detail in the water.
The light penetrated the muddy river and sprinkled on them, mottled like a painting. The river water flowed over their heads, and the sand in it flowed like a painting. Everything was like a painting.
The Big Black Horse neighed in amazement. Ning Que opened his eyes and looked at the picturesque scenery in the river, and could not bear to blink. Only Sangsang was calm as usual.
…
…
Continuing to the south, they came to a small town with more and more people.
It was a market day in the town, and it was very noisy and lively. There were all kinds of stalls along the street, selling insoles, bamboo baskets, eggs, and of course, most of them were selling food.
Ning Que looked at these scenes and gradually calmed down from the shock of seeing the wonders along the way. He held the border rope and walked casually with Sangsang. This was his home field.
There was a stall at the corner of the street, and a dark man with a white headscarf was sitting beside an iron stove. He stepped on something with his foot, and something was spinning in the pot.
Sangsang slightly lowered her head, still with her hands behind her back, and looked calm. She looked very much like an old man choosing goods in the antique market, and also like an old man checking the stored grain in the granary.
Smelling the faint sweet aroma and the faint burnt aroma that was difficult to capture, she knew that the thing in the pot was sugar. She just didn't understand why the thing in the pot would keep spinning when the man stepped on it. Why was it able to pull out wisps of cloud-like things in the end? It looked very beautiful.
Although the man was a little curious about the girl's tall stature, he did not care much about it. After a while, he wrapped a fluffy cloud and handed it to an excited child beside the pot.
"Cotton candy. I used to buy it for you when you were little," Ning Que said.
Sangsang still did not speak, but just looked at him quietly with a particularly focused expression. Not long after, the cotton candy in the pot was ready. The man inserted a wooden stick and handed it to her.
She slightly frowned and hesitated.
Ning Que took out two copper coins and handed them to the man. He took the cotton candy and stuffed it into her hand.
The man took the copper coins and found that they were Tang coins. He was a little surprised, but also very happy. After all, in the Great River Kingdom, Tang coins were more useful than the official currency.
Walking out of the market, Sangsang held the cotton candy but did not eat it. She explained to Ning Que, "I have seen cotton candy before, but I forgot how it was made."
Ning Que thought that she was Haotian. How could she forget something that she had experienced?
Sangsang said again, "I know how it works. Why did you buy it?"
Ning Que said, "Of course I bought it to eat."
Sangsang glanced at the cotton candy in her hand and said, "I did forget how it tastes."
The picture of a fair, fat, and tall girl holding a white and fat cotton candy in her hand was a little funny and also a little cute, especially when she lowered her head to take a bite and a few strands of sugar were stuck on the corner of her lips.
Ning Que looked at her and said with a smile, "If you still can't remember, we can eat it a few more times."
The smile on his face was very strange. It was a little like an elder looking at a child with love and pity, but also a little like a proud person who had succeeded. In short, it was very annoying in Sangsang's eyes.
Sangsang frowned slightly and Divine Light overflowed. The sugar on the corner of her lips was instantly purified.
She looked at the cotton candy in her hand and hesitated for a while before handing it to the Big Black Horse.
The Big Black Horse was a little surprised and then quickly became excited.
To be able to eat Haotian's food, or more precisely, to be able to eat Haotian's leftover food, as long as one was not an idiot like Ning Que who did not know how lucky he was, it would be the greatest honor.
It stretched out its tongue and rolled the cotton candy into its mouth. It smacked its mouth and the cotton candy went into its stomach. It found that it did not taste anything and could not help but feel a little unsatisfied.
Seeing that Sangsang did not finish the cotton candy, Ning Que could not help but feel a little disappointed. Looking at the Big Black Horse's unsatisfied look, Ning Que became even angrier and scolded, "How many lives have you not eaten? Why are you so greedy? Have I ever deprived you of food? Did I buy this cotton candy for you? How dare you open your mouth! "
The Big Black Horse thought to himself, "She gave it to me. As long as she likes it, it is none of your business." He turned his head and was about to ask for credit from Sangsang, but unexpectedly found that Sangsang's face was also a little ugly. He thought painfully, "Since you like it, why did you give it to me? Can you two not let me get involved in the fight between you two? "
There were children playing outside the market. Two of them held cotton candy in their hands and carefully licked it from time to time. They seemed to cherish it very much and would probably have leftovers by the time they went home.
Sangsang looked at the cotton candy in the children's hands and felt a little sad.
Ning Que sneered and said, "Keep pretending. Don't regret it."
Sangsang clasped her hands behind her back and walked out of the town, as if she did not hear what he said.
Although it was deep winter, the Great River Kingdom in the south was still warm. The sun in the sky was dazzling and fell on people's bodies, making them feel a little hot.
After walking to the mountain in the south of the town, Ning Que was still talking about the cotton candy.
Sangsang suddenly stopped and broke a branch from a tree beside the mountain road.
Ning Que did not know what she was going to do and was a little curious.
Sangsang raised the branch and stretched it to the sky.
The sky was clear and cloudless.
The distant Sea of Storm in the Kingdom of Song was suddenly covered with dark clouds. One of them landed with the wind and floated thousands of miles to a small mountain in the Great River Kingdom in the south.
The cloud landed on the branch in her hand.
The sun was blocked by the cloud and the mountain road suddenly became quiet.
Sangsang looked calm and continued to walk south with one hand behind her back and the other holding the branch.
The cloud on the branch was bigger than the mountain.
What a big cotton candy.
Looking at this extremely shocking scene, Ning Que was completely speechless.
He never thought that she would pick a cloud from the sky to pretend to be a cotton candy just because she was angry.
She was indeed Haotian.
Haotian, who had human emotions, was really unpredictable.
Thinking that she was his woman and looking at the cloud on the branch, he felt very proud and self-abased.
When he walked into the capital of the Great River Kingdom, all his emotions turned into anger.
Because the Great River Kingdom was holding a happy event.

(I really wanted to write about the scene of walking under the river in more detail, or more seriously, but I was in a rush, and if I wrote too much, it would seem like I was trying to fill in the blanks. I saved a picture just to write about that scene, to climb up those steps and see those scenes. This is something I really wanted to do but never had the chance to do it in detail. I'll try to do it properly in the future. Bean's Ascension to Evil is really well written … I really like this chapter. I like cotton candy the most. If it were turned into a picture, it would definitely be very cool. I'll write two more chapters tomorrow.) (To be continued.) If you like this work, please come to Qidian.Com to vote for me.
