Chapter 404: The Demon in the Tower
"I've been studying it for days, but what do you see?"
"The faces of the demons on the first layer have begun to blur, so it can be guessed that their self is being tempered for endless years, gradually lost, and each time I go up, the faces of the demons gradually become clearer, and they give me more and more real feelings. Especially this sixth layer. You see......"
Mu Shan pointed to the portrait of the demon engraved on the wall of the sixth-floor pagoda, and said with fear: "Not only is the seal carved vividly, but the extremely strong demonic aura seems to be thinking about breaking through the wall all the time." ”
Mu Shan's figure moved back and forth, although the portrait on the wall did not change in the slightest, but Mu Shan was keenly aware that the demon's red, lantern-like eyes were moving with his pace, as if he intended to ask for help, but because of his own arrogance, he couldn't put down the shelf, couldn't open his mouth, and looked a little pitiful.
"You can't be exaggerating, right?" Sima Yuchen looked at Mu Shan in disbelief and said, "Why did I live here for several days and not sense their existence at all?" ”
"This ......" Mu Shan thought for a moment, stepped forward and approached the wall, pointed to some inconspicuous characters in the mural, and said, "It should be because of them." ”
"They'......, could they be some kind of spell?"
"Well, to be exact, it should be a spell from the ancient period, belonging to the exclusive use of the Protoss. This font, I once saw it on the stone pillar leading to the secret realm of Changyang Mountain in Yangzhou Huoyun Palace, and it is seven or eight points similar. Whenever the demonic aura is at its strongest, these fonts glow with a golden light, defeating all demonic aura. Because of this, those ignorant merchants who come and go can always be under the watchful eye of demons and be safe and sound. ”
"I have recorded all the fonts that appeared, but it's a pity that ......" Mu Shan opened a white silk that he had drawn incomparably messily, looked at the densely packed fonts on it, as small as flies, and said regretfully: "Gongjin is not here, otherwise you can roughly know the meaning of those fonts." Maybe it's some kind of incredible sealing technique. ”
"It's better to mix less with demons and gods." Sima Yuchen snatched the cloth in Mu Shan's hand, carefully folded it away, and diverted the topic: "When the time comes, Zhang Chun's elite striker should have almost arrived." The troops of about 10,000 people broke up in disguise, went out day and night, and came quietly, and it seems that they also realized the importance of this place...... Why, aren't you worried about the situation in the state at all? ”
"What is there to worry about, no matter how sinister the situation is, I have seen it, just a Zhang Chun, forgive him and he can't afford to make any waves!"
Mu Shankou said it arrogantly, but in fact, he was thinking about what Guo Jia had told him in his heart, if Xu Fu and the others were not interested in merging the state, then what were they doing so much fanfare? The only thing left with a puzzle in the state is this Eight Treasures Exquisite Pagoda, but ......
Although the Eight Treasures Linglong Pagoda is a treasure in the heavenly realm, but from the fact that he has stood here for so long and has never been noticed, or someone has noticed it and can't help it, to analyze it, wanting to include this treasure in the bag is tantamount to a fool's dream, thinking that Xu Fu should have this self-knowledge.
"It's quite light, Zhang Chun's elite forwards, although there are only 10,000 people, but if they occupy this canyon, the follow-up troops will be able to advance in a steady stream, and with the crowd outnumbered, the situation in Jinyang will be dangerous."
"Yuchen, you have to learn to trust your companions, whether it is Feng Xian or Wen Yuan, or even Gao Shun, who is not smiling, they are not mediocre talents. The news had been sent three days ago, and they could not have expected what we could have imagined. I believe that at this moment, the wolf rider is about to arrive here. ”
Mu Shan walked to the fence, looked at the silent tower floor on the upper floor, and said with great interest: "The demons of these six floors are already so powerful, I don't know what amazing murderous things are sealed on the top floor?" ”
"What do you want to do?"
"Hehe, aren't you curious at all?" Mu Shan pointed upward, raised his eyebrows, and said, "The shopkeeper said that the top floor has been wrapped for a month, but in the past few days, have you ever seen anyone come down?" ”
"Don't mess around, don't make any more side ...... at this juncture"
Before Sima Yuchen finished speaking, Mu Shan was already driven by the curiosity in his heart, stepped on the railing, and soared straight to the top floor.
The top floor of the pagoda is also decorated as a room by the shopkeeper, the only difference is that the top floor, which is about 50 zhang long, has only one luxuriously decorated room.
"I don't know who is so arrogant, look at this style, this appearance, it is estimated that a day's silver is enough for ordinary people to spend a month." Mu Shankou admired it, carefully rubbed a small hole in the window paper, and peeked into the room.
"Huh? Is there really no one? Changing the angle, peeking at the old man for a long time, and seeing no half of the figure, Mu Shan simply pushed open the door and walked in with a big grin.
"I don't know where your Excellency is, why did you trespass into the Lower Humble House?"
Hey......, there are really people!
However, the voice ......
"Uh......" Listening to the question coming from behind the screen in front of him, Mu Shan was shocked, and naturally he would not admit his sneaky and unsightly behavior verbally, his eyes rolled, and he thought about it: "I live downstairs from you, and a thief broke into my room, stole some silver taels, and came to this top, so I chased after me to take a look, but the thief disappeared when he arrived here, I don't know if I can let me search and catch the thief, so that you don't have to be stolen again." ”
"Hehe, this is the most domineering and at the same time the most unpopular excuse I've ever heard. A thief shouting to catch a thief doesn't work anywhere. ”
"It's you!" Looking at the figure that turned out from behind the screen, and at the false smile on the corner of the man's mouth, Mu Shan was surprised: "Jia Xu, what are you doing here?" ”
"I should have asked this question! I wonder what the thief's intention is when he comes here? "Aren't you smart, guess what!"
Since it is an old acquaintance, Mu Shan naturally no longer has any scruples, looking around the room, only to see that in the huge room around, the decoration is extremely elegant, there are three pairs of desks in front of the screen, a pen stand, an inkstone and a bamboo slip in the middle, and the other two are full of wine, vegetables and fruits. Behind the screen is a large, beautifully carved bed and some essential scrubbing items.
"How could it not be?" Looking around at the surrounding walls, I saw that they were as white as snow, and there was no sign of the demons being sealed in them.
"Because he doesn't want you to see it!"
Mu Shan turned his head to stare at Jia Xu and said, "Do you know what is sealed here?" ”
"I know, or I wouldn't be here."
"Oh, so to speak, your purpose is really related to this Eight Treasures Exquisite Pagoda." Mu Shan rubbed his chin, his eyes shone slightly, and with a victorious smile on the corner of his mouth, he teased: "There are only you and me here, you are not my opponent, so let's recruit from the truth, so as not to suffer again." ”
"Have you forgotten the Ten Thousand Ghost Flag?" Jia Xu looked at Mu Shan unmoved, the corners of his mouth also had a little sneer, and he smiled like an old fox who had stolen a chicken: "What the ghost king has practiced is only a defective product, and the real ten thousand ghost flags are in my hands, and there is more than one." To put it simply, I can disappear here at any time if I want, what can you do! ”
"Wait a minute, you'll know what you're sealing here, but it's not the time yet." Jia Xu swaggered past Mu Shan, and when he left, he didn't forget to pat Mu Shan's shoulder, and said with a gentle smile: "Oh, by the way, by the way, I will clarify to you that this room is not rented by me, so your explanation at the beginning that you thought was very clever is actually very redundant, goodbye." ”
"You ......" Mu Shan suddenly turned around, bent his fingers like claws, and grabbed Jia Xu fiercely, but even if his movements were as fast as lightning, all he could catch was a few wisps of light smoke: "It's really a ...... of ten thousand ghosts, damn the ...... guy"
Chased outside the room, leaned on the railing and looked, there was no trace of Jia Xu, but on the horizon in the distance, a group of cavalry bathed in the glow of the sunset, with a thick of dust and a chilling murderous aura, quickly galloped towards the Eight Treasures Linglong Pagoda.
And the state wolf rides, it's here!
