Chapter 293: Frozen in Mirage and City
What is that? It's like a dilapidated palace.
It was a city, it was a war-torn city, in ruins.
Jiang Ming and Lin Han raised their eyes, only to see that the mountain peaks in the distance could be seen, and the snow white on the peaks could also be seen, and there was a dilapidated city standing next to the snow mountain, such a huge building, as if it was also wrapped in ice.
"That's ......"
Jiang Ming and Lin Han condensed in unison, looking at the dilapidated building solemnly, and there was a trace of pity in their hearts that could not be chosen.
But they understood that they had nothing to do with this building, the only relationship was that they saw him today, and saw it in the snowy mountains, revealing its original appearance.
It was a city.
A different kind of city, the city seems to be wrapped in countless ice sculptures, from a distance it seems that the scene or people or things, but they are extremely lifelike and people can't help but sigh, this is not actually a work of art, but a real person, a real thing.
They could probably guess how the city had been battered hundreds of years ago, and how the cold had overwhelmed their city, leaving their flesh and body standing in the snow and ice, and then sealed in the formation.
"This is the legendary Kunming City?"
No one could solve their doubts, but they knew that this city did not seem to be as quiet as outsiders seemed, and its dilapidated was not without reason, as if it had experienced war and an unforeseen disaster.
The life in it withered like fallen leaves, and any item in it was shattered like a mirror.
There was no sound, but people from the outside could hear it, their breathing, it was the crushing sound of history. Under the thick wheels of ink, those who had no names did not even make a single sound of struggle.
What happened here? Why did the frozen city look like this? Could it be that the ice and snow are so unforgiving?
The city of Kunming, which is guarded by the white people, is a city with beautiful scenery in the legend.
With the help of the formation set up by the white people, countless spiritual energy has been gathered, and it has become a fairyland that outsiders can't reach.
Because white people don't know what the real human heart really is, what real honesty is.
After a hundred years, when outsiders look back, they only see this dilapidated city, and from the frozen city, it seems that they want to get a glimpse of it, and there is no way to find out the reason for the ruin of the city.
People in the outside world say that there are countless treasures in the white relics, and they can even get the inheritance of the white people with strong status, as well as the accumulation of experience in the strong formation, but no one has ever said that in the white relics, there are tragic pasts that cannot be talked about, and those that are invisible and visible have been drowned in the dust of history. No, there's no dust here, just white snow.
Kunming, the only city in the White Brahma Mountains, was a sacred place on earth a hundred years ago, but one day it was reduced to ruins.
This is not the sin of this city, nor the sin of guarding the white clouds, but the most silent lament of heaven and earth.
Jiang Ming and Lin Han looked at each other for a few seconds, and then walked forward in unison, at this time the wind seemed to have stopped, this was a mourning for the sad city, and the snow was no longer slippery, it seemed to be the last pity for the ruined city.
Jiang Ming and Lin Han kept walking forward, walking and walking, and their voices gradually became smaller and inaudible.
The vision seems to be fixed in the distance, but the distance between them has never changed.
I don't know how long they walked, Jiang Ming and Lin Hanjing felt physically and mentally tired, and the consumption of physical strength gave them a desire to give up, extending from the bottom of their hearts to their minds, this desire has been hovering in the depths of their blood, and they can't be dispelled.
At this time, suddenly the jade Ruyi in Jiang Ming's arms flashed a faint light, Jiang Ming and Lin Han woke up from the psychedelia in an instant, and then they realized that everything in front of them seemed to be like a dream, everything they fantasized about did not exist all the time, and the city in the distance was still there, but they couldn't tell the truth from the fake.
"Fang Yuan Halberd!"
Jiang Ming shouted, and the halberd appeared in his hand, he looked at the black color on the halberd handle, and instantly felt a lot more sober, and then slapped his forehead violently, and at the same time called Lin Han on the side, and the two looked at the city in the distance at the same time, as if they were really in the real world at this time.
"This is called a mirage, I have seen it in ancient books", Jiang Ming said: "This is an ability to map real things to a false scene, it may be formed spontaneously by heaven and earth, or it may be caused by the power left by a big man, according to what I see, the reason why this environment can be triggered here should be the formation left by the white predecessors, although the city in front of us now is not the real Kunming City, but the real Kunming City must also be like this, and we are not far from it." ”
Lin Han was secretly surprised: "I was almost confused by it, if we continue like this, go on endlessly, maybe we will be worn out by it, and finally die of exhaustion, is this the power left by the white man? Just a left formation, let us fall into it and can't extricate ourselves, if it is a complete period of formation, then we will not see it will disappear?"
Jiang Ming shook his head, indicating that he couldn't guess such an ending, but he couldn't say anything, if there was really such a huge formation, the two of them would definitely not be able to dodge.
The gap between status and position is like a ravine, and they don't know what kind of realm the legendary white man has reached, but to be able to arrange such a formation must be amazing, and the two of them can be said to have encountered the biggest problem so far.
Lin Han pondered: "Since this is an illusion, although we have seen through it, this so-called mirage has still not disappeared, so it seems that this illusion is not ordinarily powerful. We can barely rely on Jade Ruyi to achieve the effect of circumventing it, but it is still difficult to find the real white ruins, and I even have a feeling that if we can't break this illusion, we won't be able to see the real white ruins. ”
"That's the case", Jiang Ming's expression gradually became solemn, and he said slowly: "In my opinion, since this is a projection of the real Ethereal City, then in a certain direction, it is easy to distinguish between the real and the false, as long as we grasp a certain position, we can find out the direction of the real Kunming City." But it's too difficult, and I don't know how to express it, so maybe we have to move on, but we have to change our thinking. ”
Lin Han said: "Well, what you say does confuse me, but I think I should know what you think, that is, from the bottom of your heart, you agree that the city in front of you is fake, and then go to find it, the real city, right? The so-called mirage is a false impression that is alluded from the real thing, and its purpose is to confuse the thoughts and eyes of outsiders. ”
Jiang Mingran laughed and said: "Although I don't know what you're talking about, I think you know what I mean, if you don't believe in ghosts and gods and believe in immortals, maybe we can achieve our goals, but it's difficult, and we have to try it ourselves." If we can't find the real white ruins with this method, we may really get lost in the snowy mountains. ”
Lin Han also laughed and said: "What's the matter, anyway, there are many difficult things in the world, if you have to hesitate one by one, and wait until you see the right thing before acting, it will be too late." Our approach is too risky, but it's worth trying, and don't you have some more accurate arguments? I think let's try it. ”
Lin Han's words fell, and both of them took out a black cloth from their arms, which was the cotton cloth they had used to cover their faces before. But they were blindfolded in unison, and then they stretched out an arm to each other, and walked forward, in this direction in the direction of the mirage, and behind that direction, but they did not know where.
The two figures opened the way with the help of halberd weapons, and slowly walked forward, I don't know how long this scene lasted, and there seemed to be snowflakes floating around them, and the snow fell heavier and heavier, falling on the shoulders of the two people, and on the top of their heads, it seemed that the two of them had also become snowmen.
In the distant city, there seemed to be two four-legged animals, and the sound of conversation was faintly heard.
The former said: "Look at those two people, it seems that they have some ability, and they are different from the methods adopted by others. Although this will not help, if you want to break the formation set by the white man, where is it so easy?"
The latter said: "Old Jiao, you should have some misunderstanding about this formation, right? This is not a formation that can block people, he only blocks those who can't come to this place. Even if the real status is strong, there are many people with high abilities who cannot enter, and this is the amazing power of white adults. ”
The former said: "Don't tell me this, you seem to understand it very well, but do you really think those two can come in?"
The latter said, "At least there is a better chance than the others." The mirage created by the siege formation is as real as it is, and if they can't face it in their hearts, what they see will always be an illusion. The so-called ruins are just their imagination. And these two people seem to have some kind of unusual treasure around them, and their hearts are much stronger than the others. "135 Chinese
The former laughed and said, "Do you want them to come in?" Aren't you afraid that they will snatch your Fenggu Tianyu Jiao after they come in?"
The latter only said: "What is that, the treasure is for people to use, but the white man has explained, everything belongs to the destined person, if they can obtain it, can break through the test set before, let them get it, we can't interfere too much." ”
The former said: "That Fenggu Tianyu Jiao, but where your cultivation is, if someone takes it away, your cultivation is afraid that in this life, you will have to stand still, are you really willing? After all, the adult has been dead for so long." ”
"Shut up, get out of here," the latter scolded, "and for what you say, I have a reason to put you to death here, and I will help you remember all the slander and disregard for your lords." I'll tell you the truth, if someone wants to take your treasure and you don't want to give it yet, wait, I'll help you clean it up. ”
The former said, "Uh...... Lao Jiao, don't, I'm just talking, don't be so serious, let's see if these two people can break in......"
No one heard about this conversation.
Jiang Ming and Lin Han walked farther and farther, and after walking for a long time, they did not remove the black cloth that covered their eyes, but they became more and more flustered in their hearts.
Even with this jade ruyi's instructions, they still didn't know how to solve the mirage in front of them, and although this kind of behavior could comfort them, it would be difficult to solve the real problem for a while.
Lin Han tore off the black cloth on his face, stopped, and said, "Jiang Ming, look, the mirage is still there, and the city is still there." ”
Lin Han's eyes were indifferent, and his expression was also indifferent.
Jiang Ming smiled and said, "Really, did you see that city?"
Lin Han said: "Naturally, I saw it, and it has always been there." ”
Jiang Ming said, "Why can't I see it?"
Lin Han rolled his eyes and said, "Because you are blindfolded, how can you see?"
Jiang Ming looked up to the sky and laughed, stuffed Yu Ruyi into Lin Han's arms, and said: "Everything is to blind your eyes and heart, but if you are just blindfolded, your heart can still see, and the illusion will stand in your mind and cannot be lifted." I'm not pure now, but I can feel it, blindfolded, blindfolded, blindfolded, I can see the truth, right?"
"Are you asking me", Lin Han was slightly puzzled, he held the jade Ruyi, through the light of the jade Ruyi, looked at the city in the distance, and suddenly, he found that the city had disappeared, and the snow in the sky seemed to be getting bigger and bigger at this time, almost covering all his sight.
Jiang Ming patted Lin Han's shoulder, and then slowly lifted the black cloth on his face, his gaze slowly moved from the snow to the distance, and in his eyes, the illusion had disappeared.
Yes, that's the way to crack it.
Jiang Ming stretched out his hand and shook one, as if the heavens and the earth were frozen at this moment.
He shouted: "Kunming City, I see you!"
"Boom!"
A deafening sound came from the ground, and then a huge city emerged from the ground in front of him, Lin Han pointed to the city at this time, which was exactly the same as the illusion in the "mirage" he had just seen.
Jiang Ming smiled faintly and said, "I'll just say I can find it." ”
At this time, this ruined city appeared in front of them, and the two of them could see all the scenes very clearly, the ruined walls in the city, as well as the lives and various objects sealed by ice, did not appear in the slightest blur in the minds of the two, this scene shocked them.
The city guarded by the white people was called Kunming City.
The city was like an ice sculpture, Jiang Ming and Lin Han could see their shadows through the ice, and they could see a lot of movement in the shadows, but they couldn't feel happy because of this, and the scene in their eyes was too sad.
"Let's go, let's go in!"
Jiang Ming said: "The city gates have collapsed, it seems that we don't need to enter any gates, and the things we want should also be in the city." ”
Thirteen lanterns hung at the gate of the city, and according to the records in the ancient books, this scene marked the existence of this Kunming city for thirteen more days.
Lin Han was quite surprised, but he still followed Jiang Ming's footsteps, observing the surrounding scenery, and seemed to have a lot of emotion in his heart, he said: "Thirteen days, we must come out within thirteen days after we go in, otherwise, maybe we will be taken to another world like those ghost stories." ”
Jiang Ming smiled and said, "It may be so, but we shouldn't need thirteen days! No matter how big the city is, it will be finished in a day or two." ”
But he didn't know how big this Kunming city really was.
The two slowly walked into the city gate, and the moment they walked into the city gate, they suddenly felt that the air around them seemed to fluctuate, and the two of them were slightly stunned, but there was nothing unusual around, so they continued to walk.
They looked at the surrounding scenes, such as the streets that were similar to the ones now, but the streets were uninhabited, and all the shops were in a dilapidated state, and they could see clearly through the frozen city, there were no pedestrians on the streets, and all the pedestrians were at noon on the houses, which was different from what they had seen from afar, and they wanted to find the shadows of people.
The more they entered, they saw broken carriages, broken dishes, broken crutches, and halberds placed in a disorderly manner.
But these things were all in the ice, and they could only see them through the mirror-like ice, and fortunately they didn't block the way, otherwise they would have wanted to go in.
After walking for a long time, although the scenery on the street is changing, the overall pattern has not changed, Jiang Ming and Lin Han still remember the original direction, and walked forward from south to north, but I don't know how long they walked, it was still the same scene, and it seemed that what they wanted did not appear.
Lin Han said: "Could it be that what we want has been taken away by the people in front of us?" Could it be that this city is just an ordinary relic now, and nothing exists?"
Jiang Ming said in a deep voice: "I can't rule out this possibility, but since we have walked into this city, we naturally want to check the scenery in it, but Lin Han, have you felt that if these streets are these scenes as always, it is very likely that we will not find anything." ”
Lin Han said: "Aren't these things the original appearance of the city? Could it be that the real treasure is hidden in a special place?"
Jiang Ming said: "It should be like this, let's climb up to the frozen roof and take a look, which one is relatively high and can overlook a long distance, maybe we can see the changes in the overall pattern, so as to find out the abnormalities." ”
Lin Han nodded, and only then did he feel that Jiang Ming seemed to have a much stronger ability to contact these new things than him, which also caused him to seem that he couldn't help Jiang Ming with some things in this situation.
Jiang Ming felt the change in Lin Han's tone early, and said, "Don't think too much, I haven't said anything, don't think about it yourself." I just think that this matter was caused by me, and I naturally have to solve it myself, so it's better to be conceited, and don't blame myself even if it's wrong. ”
Lin Han smiled and suddenly brightened.
