Volume 1 Imperial Palace Boy Chapter 12 Quicksand River

Previous Chapter

When it came to the realm of cultivation, Su Chen took a serious look at Hongzhu and confirmed that he couldn't see it, so he asked, "Then Sister Hongzhu, what realm are you?"

Hongzhu didn't have much to hide, and many people in the palace knew about it, and said, "The double peak of the Heavenly Realm!"

Hiss!

Su Chen was a little surprised, he didn't expect that Hongzhu Xiuwei was only one weight lower than the Blood Rakshasa, and she was really a proud woman in the sky!

"Sister Hongzhu, you are so young, but your cultivation is so profound, Su Chen admires!" Su Chen didn't compliment, he really admired.

In this world, cultivation is already difficult, and being able to achieve such an achievement in the double decade shows that the talent is good, and it is only a matter of time before the future enters the real realm.

Hongzhu was a little surprised, waved his hand lightly, and said modestly: "My talent is just average, Shangguan Wan next to the Queen Mother is a real genius!"

When Su Chen heard this, his face became ugly when he thought of the violent woman, and he snorted lightly: "Just her, is she really strong?"

Hongzhu nodded, "I have fought with her many times, and each time I have been defeated by her, and her cultivation is only one of the most important in the Heavenly Realm. ”

"So powerful?"

Su Chen was surprised again, entering the Heavenly Realm at a young age was already commendable, and being able to fight across borders showed that his talent was absolutely high.

Thinking of his own practice, Su Chen looked at Hongzhu and said a little embarrassed: "Sister Hongzhu, you see that we have all done things for the concubine Niangniang together, and we can be regarded as friends, can you teach me to practice." ”

Hongzhu glanced at Su Chen in surprise, and immediately put his hands like electricity, instantly resting on the latter's pulse.

After a few breaths, Hongzhu's eyes froze, he sighed in his heart, looked at Su Chen, had some pity, and said euphemistically: "Su Chen, your qualifications are considered ...... In general, even if you do penance, it is difficult to achieve too high a level. ”

Su Chen knew that Hongzhu really took care of his face, and his qualifications were not ordinary, but too poor.

The body of the inferior root is not called for nothing!

Knowing the result for a long time, Su Chen didn't show a depressed look, thinking of the [Human Chapter] that the Blood Rakshasa gave him, so he asked, "That Hongzhu sister, do you know the most powerful exercises in the world?"

Hongzhu didn't expect a sixteen-year-old boy to mention the most powerful exercises, thought about it, and said, "Yes." ”

"What's it called?"

"I don't know the name, I only know that it is called the first foundation building method in the world!"

Hongzhu talked about the world's first foundation building method, Qingli's face also showed a trace of fluctuation, as a master of cultivation, who doesn't want to see this legendary exercise, even she can't avoid vulgarity.

"Sister Hongzhu, if I can practice this exercise, can I enter the path of cultivation?" asked Su Chen.

Seeing Su Chen's sincere appearance, Hongzhu couldn't bear to hit his hope, nodded, and said, "Maybe you can, maybe you can go further." ”

However, this exercise has long since disappeared from the world for countless years, and it is one thing whether it exists or not, and now it is only in legends.

Hongzhu didn't say these words, the young man in front of him may have a chance in the future.

No one can say.

Su Chen subconsciously rubbed his chest, and there was a cloth hidden in it, and on the cloth was the world's first foundation building method mentioned by Hongzhu.

Even Hongzhu didn't know its name, and he didn't even know where this exercise was, however, the Blood Rakshasa not only knew, but even brought it out, indicating that I am afraid that no one in the entire Great Zhou Palace knew that the imperial study contained the world's first foundation building method.

The identity of the Blood Rakshasa made Su Chen even more curious, is she just a killer?

Su Chen fell into deep thought, Hongzhu thought he was sad, so he stopped bothering, and concentrated on paying attention to the surroundings to protect the safety of Niangniang.

......

Somewhere in the deep palace, the lights flickered, empty and quiet.

A figure stepped into a large hall, stood ten steps later, and said: "Shuhua has left the palace, I am worried about the leakage of news, please take a hand to protect her." ”

The sound echoed in the hall for a long time.

Then, an old voice came out: "Isn't the maid at the peak of the Heavenly Realm Dual Peak still able to protect her?"

Emperor Zhou asked rhetorically: "Can the Taibao at the peak of the Heavenly Realm protect me in the palace?"

The hall fell into a dull state, and soon after, the old voice came out again, "This is different. ”

"What's the difference, to be able to assassinate me in the palace, there is no internal response, I don't believe it, and I won't believe it if I believe in it. ”

There was a hint of anger in Emperor Zhou's majestic voice, the emperor was assassinated, and the murderer was still in the palace, making it difficult for him to sleep.

"I don't want the queen to be killed again!"

"Okay, Old Ten, you go and secretly protect the safety of the concubine. ”

The old man's voice came, and then, a wisp of breeze blew, and a vague figure appeared in the main hall, bowed slightly to Emperor Zhou, and then, faded, disappeared.

In the imperial garden of the palace, the Queen Mother is still sitting quietly with a book in the Qianqiu Pavilion, quiet and leisurely.

Shangguan Wan on the side stood on one side, her head lowered, her hands rubbing the corners of her clothes, and her two slender calves kicking each other, in a state of extreme boredom.

"Wan'er, how many years have you been in the palace?" suddenly the Queen Mother asked softly.

In the calm pavilion, the sudden voice frightened Shangguan Wan, and hurriedly stood up straight, her little face became solemn and said: "Queen Mother, Wan'er has been in the palace since she was a child, and it has been more than ten years. ”

The Queen Mother didn't look up, nor did she blame Shangguan Wan for wandering, she always regarded Shangguan Wan as her own family, just like her granddaughter.

"Then do you want to go out of the palace and see the outside world?" the Queen Mother asked again.

Shangguan Wan didn't understand what the Queen Mother meant, thinking that the Queen Mother was going to drive her away, so she pounced and knelt down beside the Queen Mother, her eyes were foggy, and her voice was hoarse: "Queen Mother, are you trying to drive Wan'er away?"

The Queen Mother was stunned for a moment, then understood, smiled bitterly, knocked the latter's little head with the ancient book in her hand, and scolded: "Little girl, what do you think about all day long, old woman, I want you to go out to refine your heart and change your frizzy personality." ”

"Ah! Wan'er knew she was wrong. ”

Shangguan Wan was embarrassed, her cheeks were red, but her mood was inexplicably better, and then she asked suspiciously: "Queen Mother, why do you want to refine your heart?"

The Queen Mother sighed lightly and explained: "You have a frizzy personality and don't understand people's hearts, and letting you go out this time is also a rare opportunity to practice, after all, my wife won't have a few years to live, but I can't protect you for a few years." ”

Speaking of the back, Shangguan Wan's eyes were red, tears were dotted, she held the old hand of the Queen Mother tightly, shook her head and said, "No, the Queen Mother, you will definitely live a long life!"

The Queen Mother smiled softly, patted the back of the latter's hand, and there was no unwillingness on her wrinkled face, and said: "Live a long life and be a hundred years old?" Hehe, ordinary people rarely live to be 100 years old, even if they step into the cultivator, if they don't enter the real realm, a hundred years will be the end." ”

After the words fell, the Queen Mother looked at Shangguan Wan and said solemnly: "Go, if you don't know where to go, you can go north with Shuhua and them, remember, the world is not as quiet as the palace." ”

"Queen Mother, what about your safety?" Shangguan Wan said worriedly.

The Queen Mother waved her hand, and said domineeringly: "It's okay, besides, there is 'him' around here, and others can't get close to me." ”

Shangguan Wan nodded, thinking of that "him", her heart was full of admiration.

"Queen Mother, that Wan'er left. Shangguan Wan got up, saluted respectfully to the Queen Mother, and turned to leave.

The Queen Mother looked at Shangguan Wan's departing back, and only then did she pick up the ancient books again until she could no longer see them.

......

Between Gyeonggi-do and Bukhado, there is a large river that separates the north and south, called the Quicksa River.

The river is rushing and rushing, pale yellow and red, and the tide is splashing everywhere, like a ghost crying and a wolf roaring.

When Su Chen and his entourage left Yujing City, they went straight to the north, and along the way, five guards took turns to carry the sedan chair, walking like flying, and came to the bank of the quicksand river in one day.

The speed of the group has increased, but Su Chen is tired enough, his physique is already weak, and the road on the road is not easy to walk, at this moment, he can no longer hold on, and he is paralyzed to the ground.

"Sister Hongzhu, I really can't walk, no, I won't leave if I am killed. Su Chen panted, leaned under a big tree, and waved his hand weakly.

Before Hongzhu could speak, the cyan sedan curtain was lifted, revealing the gentle face of the Yin Guifei, she looked up at the sky, then at Su Chen, and said to Hongzhu: "Let's rest by the river tonight." ”

Hongzhu said worriedly: "Niangniang, this place is in the wild, and it may not be safe at night, so it is better to cross the river and enter the city to rest." ”

"No!" Su Chen hurriedly shouted, trying his best to stop him.

Hongzhu was puzzled, thinking that Su Chen was making excuses for being too lazy to leave, but thinking of his physique, it was understandable, but it was a matter of Niangniang's safety, and she didn't dare to slack off, even if this place was still in the hinterland of Dazhou.

Yin Guifei was very calm, she didn't think that Su Chen just couldn't move to stop it, the kid in front of her was very clever, so she asked softly: "Su Chen, what do you think?"

Su Chen regained some strength, took a few steps forward, and looked at the vast river in front of him, the sound of rushing water was rattling, like a beast roaring, and like a demon roaring.

On the quicksand river, an iron bridge runs across both banks, looking from afar, like a rainbow in the sky, magnificent and magnificent.

On the iron bridge, the iron chain like a baby's arm shook gently, and the thick wooden planks did not rot after the wind and frost, and they were paved layer by layer, leading to the depths of the other side.

Su Chen's heart was shocked for no reason, as if he was being targeted by a fierce beast, and he felt very uncomfortable.

He didn't answer directly, but asked, "Niangniang, is this quicksand river dangerous?"

Yin Guifei and Hongzhu didn't expect Su Chen to ask this question, Yin Guifei thought for a while, and said: "This quicksand river has existed since ancient times, and I don't know how many years it has existed, but I haven't heard of any danger. ”

Hongzhu on the side thought for a moment, remembered some legends, and added: "It is rumored that this river is the River Styx, which is often referred to as the Lethe River or the weak water river, no one knows its depth, where it flows!"

"There was once a poem that said, 'Eight hundred quicksand rivers, three thousand weak water depths, goose feathers can't float, and reeds sink at the bottom.'" That is to say, whoever falls into the quicksand river will fall to the bottom of the river and will never be able to float again. ”

"What's even more surprising is that the chain bridge, I don't know who built it, is immortal for thousands of years, and it has existed since the beginning of the establishment of the dynasty. ”

Hiss!

Su Chen took a deep breath, felt awe-inspiring for a while, and then wondered, how could there be a Lechuan River in this world, isn't that something that only exists in the underworld?

Is the quicksand river really the legendary river?

And that bridge, is it the Nai He Bridge?

Su Chen fell into memories, but he had a splitting headache, he couldn't think of it, he was helpless, his memory disappeared, he was so fucked.
