Chapter 33: The Way of the King

"Hey, the road here is different from before, there is a fork in the road. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”

Walking through the Devouring Throat, a never-before-seen fork in the road that divided into left and right sides appeared in front of several people.

"Huh?!"

"Huh?!"

"Wow!"

Because the brain was shocked, I couldn't help but let out an exclamatory tone word. What appeared in front of several people was a strange scene that they had never thought they would see here.

"What a big stone man!"

These are two colossal stone sculptures with exquisite carvings, as if they were ghostly workmanship, and the position of the heads is almost touching the top of the forbidden land. The stone figure on the left is wearing a crown, and it is extravagant, and a pair of majestic and cold stone pupils seem to be looking at the world, stretching out his right hand and pointing to the road to the left of several people.

The other stone figure was dressed plainly, but in his left hand he held a bronze sword with a patterned pattern, pointing to the road to the right of the group.

"Chivalrous king, Mo asks don't ask."

Looking at the eight words written on the ground, and then looking up at the two huge stone sculptures, Luo Xing smiled dumbly.

"This thing was added later, I don't remember doing this with Mo Zhai."

Sweep through the hidden interface in front of the two passages, and see what this grinding mouth looks like, that is, the mechanism that was built in the last decade or so.

"In our time, although the Zhou royal family was in decline, Yu Wei still existed, and everyone was still reluctant to recognize it, and no one dared to directly say that they were going to take the royal road. Only when Yingzheng began to swallow the six countries and unify the Central Plains did he dare to say this directly. ”

Shao Yu looked at the stone sculpture on his left, thinking of the hatred between the Chu State and the Qin State and the mission he carried, his expression revealed a firmness and yearning, and asked Luo Xing behind him.

"Senior Luo Xing, then which way should we go?"

"It's up to you."

waved his hand. That's how Luo Xing replied to him.

"Chivalry is the king, in fact, it doesn't matter to me, it's the same after a hundred years. But for you, it is an important decision in life. ”

"It's a choice that only you can decide, and no one else can interfere."

Pulling Yue'er, Luo Xing stood aside.

"Yue'er, you will inherit the Mo family in the future, and the royal road and chivalry have nothing to do with you. Therefore, it depends on Tianming and Shaoyu to crack the mechanism this time. ”

Seeing that Luo Xing did not intend to force a few people to choose the path he chose, Shao Yu breathed a sigh of relief. Alerted by Tianming, he took a few steps forward and carefully observed the words engraved at the foot of the stone statue.

Under the stone statue on the right is written: 'Within five steps, a hundred people are not appropriate; Ten years of sharpening the sword, a lonely man. ’

On the left is 'Thousands of miles swinging, all bowing down; The rivers and lakes of the four seas, the royal road of a hundred generations. ’

"You two pay attention, this is not a game, you can't change it if you choose it."

Looking at the two Tianming and Shaoyu who were bowing their heads and contemplating, Luo Xing suddenly felt a little bored, and said to them lazily.

But in reality, this is already a predestined choice.

Tianming is an orphan who was adopted by a couple of elderly people. But it didn't take long for the two old men to die because of an unknown man-made or accidental fire, and then they were found by Gai Nie, and the two began to flee all the way to avoid being chased by the soldiers of the Qin State.

Again and again, the image of Gai Nie single-handedly swordsman, killing the chasing Qin soldiers without leaving a piece of armor flashed in Tianming's mind. For him, becoming a hero is his greatest wish, and he naturally stands at the foot of the stone statue that belongs to the 'chivalrous way'.

On the other side, looking at the stone statue of the nobleman, Shao Yu remembered the battle between Qin and Chu that year, when the Xiang army led by him and the golden fire cavalry of Meng Tian, a famous general of the Qin State, clashed on the battlefield.

At that time, although Shao Yu was brave and good at fighting, and fought fiercely with Meng Tian without falling behind, he still could not change the situation in which Xiang's army was trapped. If it weren't for the help of several Mo family leaders, maybe after that battle, the name of the Xiang clan would have disappeared from the battlefield.

Since then, he has been familiar with military books every day and practiced martial arts diligently, hoping to one day oppose Qin and restore the country. For him like this, although he and Tianming yearn for chivalry, he knows that the royal road is his best choice.

Therefore, unlike Tianming, Shao Yu stood on the side of the stone statue that represented the 'royal road'.

"You've already chosen?"

"Yes, senior (ancestor)."

Shao Yu and Tianming turned their condensed gazes and nodded to Luo Xing with certainty.

"Not changing?"

"Don't change it!"

"Well, that's good."

Luo Xing nodded slightly, and injected an internal qi into the stars. Among them, the stars were brilliant, and the little broken light shimmered like ice crystals in the sun, so that the wooden scabbard could barely cover the overflow.

Then, he handed over the stars infused with a piece of his internal qi to Yue'er beside him, lowered his head and said to her.

"In that case, Yue'er, you take Fanxing to Tianming, and I will go to Shaoyu. Trials are important, but life is the foundation. If there's any danger, draw your sword, and I'll be there soon." ”

"Yes, Senpai."

Yue'er put away the stars, bowed to Luo Xing and walked to Tianming's side. Seeing that Yue'er would be with him, Tianming touched the back of his head and smirked, and his favor towards Luo Xing suddenly increased by ten percentage points.

With a kick out of the mechanism, with a loud boom, the mechanism that Luo Xing had been suppressing with internal qi began to rotate slowly. While reflecting their whereabouts to the Ink Core Vault, it also separated the passages they had just walked through.

After the mechanism stopped, a bottomless pit about three feet or so appeared behind several people.

"What are you doing in a daze, go forward."

Luo Xing's voice woke up several children who were already stunned. He gently patted Shao Yu's shoulder and said to Tianming.

"Don't move forward after cracking the mechanism, I'll take Shaoyu to find you."

……

"Everyone who comes to Mowen will be faced with a choice, that is the gate of chivalry, and they enter."

Master Ban looked at the slowly rotating mechanism in the ink core secret room and introduced it to everyone.

"Look, there's movement over here."

On the other side, the thief also discovered the situation, and Master Ban turned his head to look at it and said with a somewhat surprised expression.

"That's the royal gate. This, this...... Could it be that they acted separately and were not together?! ”

Master Ban was shocked, there was only one person in Luo Xing's predecessors, and now that they were actually splitting up, one of them must be really in danger of life. The mechanism of chivalry and kingship, which is not a joke on either side.

"The royal road and the chivalrous way?"

On the other side, listening to Master Ban's narration, Xiang Liang hurriedly asked.

"What will happen to you when you enter these two doors?"

However, no matter what it was, there was no way to stop the footsteps of a few children of destiny.

Until Shao Yu finished playing the black and white chess called 'Ink Attack' step by step, and arrived at the Overlord Spear to break the formation, Luo Xing didn't notice that the stars he had placed on Yue'er had come out of the sheath.
