19. Behind the door
Gongliangzhi suddenly struck a shock.
He walked through the long passageway, and when he looked back, a door had been thrown a few feet away, getting farther and farther away. He turned back and saw a man walking a few steps ahead, his steps light and familiar.
In this silent corridor, there were only the two of them.
Where are they? Oh, in the Lost Sky Real People's Mansion, they are exploring the mansion to hunt for treasure. Memories are like glaciers in early spring, which have begun to thaw, but there are still large expanses of ice floe, which creak and creak when they flow, but they are not smooth. Gongliang faintly felt that something was wrong, and he vaguely remembered it......
"How?" The person walking in front turned his head with long eyes behind him, "Liangzhi, what did you find?" ”
It was a very familiar face.
Gongliang Zhi watched all the way from a dough-like child to a heroic teenager, and finally stayed at the young man with sword eyebrows. Since the foundation was built at the age of nineteen, Wei Zhao's appearance has never changed, just like Gongliang to himself.
It stands to reason that no matter how good-looking a face is, you should be tired of looking at it for more than 20 years, but Gongliangzhi looked at Wei Zhao and felt that he couldn't see enough. Wei Zhao's eyebrows were raised, revealing an inquiring expression, as lively as when he was young. This made Gongliangzhi's eyes astringent for some reason, and even his fingers trembled uncontrollably.
"Liangzhi?" Wei Zhaoxiang was taken aback, stretched out his hand and waved in front of him, "Are you okay?" Stunned? ”
Gongliang was so disturbed by him, and the sadness that came for no reason was quickly dispersed. He shook his head, not only inexplicable, but also a little funny. The person in front of him has always been as strong as a cow and like a monkey, and he will be moved by his "liveliness", isn't this a demon.
"I always remember there were three of them." Gongliang to confess.
"You say Zhanyi?" Wei Zhao said casually, "The god stick just went out, and he said that he entered the cave mansion just to catch up with us." I have to reminisce about the old days in other people's mansions, and I have wasted so many magic weapons, and I don't understand these magic sticks. ”
As soon as Wei Zhao said this, Gong Liangzhi also thought about it. Zhan Yi said goodbye to them before entering the door, saying that he came to see his old friends, and after seeing them, he could leave after completing his merits. The divine stick acted really extraordinary, and Gongliang didn't say anything to echo it, but only smiled and nodded.
Zhan Yi and Wei Zhao can be regarded as best friends, and Gongliang Zhi is just a nodding friend of mutual friends, and it is difficult to open this mouth behind people's backs.
Wei Zhao muttered that it was better to calculate a hexagram for them if the god stick was leaving, and as he spoke, he looked Gong Liangzhi up and down, as if he was checking whether he was back to normal. He looked left and right, keenly caught the little bit of confusion in Gongliangzhi's eyes, and his brows furrowed.
"The god stick won't give Liangzhi a bow, right?" He muttered to himself in a voice so good that he could hear him, "Is he jealous that we have a good relationship?" Alas, there is really no way to be popular. ”
Gongliang Zhi rolled his eyes at the narcissistic whisper, and put one arm under Wei Zhao's ribs. Wei Zhao snorted exaggeratedly and reached out to grab Gong Liangzhi.
They have been fighting like this since they were children, even now that they are approaching their establishment, they still continue to do so in private. Gongliangzhi only felt a hot arm around his neck and strangle him and fall forward. He didn't stand firm, and hit Wei Zhao headfirst.
The strange feeling rose again, and when I touched it, it was like crying with joy. Gong Liangzhi's heart was pounding, and for a while he couldn't wait to reach out and touch Wei Zhao to see if he was missing arms or legs, and if he was alive...... Phew, Gongliang secretly scolded himself for being a crow, but his hand couldn't help but reach out and hugged Wei Zhao's back.
Wei Zhao's body was like a furnace, surrounded by him, and his whole body was hot. Only then did Gongliang find that his hands and feet were cold, as if he had been frozen for a long time.
"Let's get out early, too." Wei Zhao let go of his hand, with concern for his friend, "The god stick left so early, I don't think it's good to stay." ”
Gongliang nodded in agreement.
They walked a long way forward, and suddenly there was a light in front of them. At the end of the corridor appeared a large hall, which was brightly lit, and the ever-bright lamps illuminated the uneven reliefs on the four walls. The place was too big to see the distant wall, and there wasn't even a table, except for a dragon pillar in the center.
"There's no way, there's no way." Wei Zhao said.
"Ah Zhao, look at that Jiao." Gongliang Zhi said.
"Where?"
"Where else?"
Wei Zhao squinted his eyes, took a good look at the dragon pillar in the middle of the room, and suddenly realized: "Yes, there is a pair of straight horns on the top of the head, only a pair of claws on the body, and a bare tail. ”
"The divine beasts on the four walls are carved with cilia, and their scales and claws are lifelike, how can the one in the middle of the room cut corners?"
"Makes sense." Wei Zhao said while looking around, "Strange, the white tiger unicorn and vermilion bird on the wall are Xuanwu, and there is a Jiao carved in the middle, how can it be compared with the green dragon?" ”
"Wait!" Gongliang Zhi also took a look at the situation, and said strangely, "Why is it that only the Jiao on the Panlong Pillar has his eyes closed?" ”
"Hey, how can I see it's open?"
"It was just closed." Gongliangzhi frowned, seemingly puzzled, "Could it be that you opened your eyes halfway?" ”
"That's a bit of a wickedness." Wei Zhao hissed and gasped, as if he took a step back timidly.
"Shall we go in then?" Honest and honest.
"Of course not!" Wei Zhao replied.
"That's exactly how it should be." Gongliangzhi nodded and said, "There are so many roads, why bother to take this one?" ”
As soon as they had finished singing and harmonizing, they both turned in unison, and they were about to return the way they came. The dragon on the stone pillar suddenly opened its eyes, and the fierce light in its eyes, which was as big as a copper bell.
In just one breath, the coiling dragon pillar came to life. Circles of entwined Jiao springed out, stretched out a few feet long, and in the blink of an eye they were only one step away from the gaping backs of the two monks. The dragon's body was so thick that an adult couldn't wrap around it, but there was no sound in its movements, and when the dagger-like sharp teeth were about to bite, the two people who were attacked didn't turn around.
There is also no need to turn around.
A net of light suddenly appeared in mid-air, and Jiaolong plunged into it, splitting his head and covering his face tightly. The array disk in Gongliangzhi's palm shone brightly, and the thick earth array of Gen Kun appeared with camel-colored light, as thick as a turtle shell, sticky as a gel, and Rao is Jiaolong could not break through it even if he struggled with all his might. A small sword broke through the air, and the blade of the sword was as light and thin as a cicada's wings, but against the dragon that was many times larger than it, the momentum did not decrease at all. The red short sword burrowed into the large array like lightning, slashing across the dragon's eyes.
Viscous blood splattered out, and the dragon let out an earth-shattering roar and writhed wildly. The hastily laid out thick earth formation was finally torn apart, and Jiao, which was blind in two eyes, broke through the formation and rushed towards the attackers.
The short sword dipped in the blood of the dragon flew towards Gongliangzhi and Wei Zhao, and when it saw the wind, it rose and instantly turned into a giant sword that was enough to carry people. They jumped up at the last moment, stepping on their flying swords and soaring into the sky. Edgeworth's flying monks flew past the ceiling of the hall, and the dragon behind them slammed headlong into the wall, flying sand and rocks as they landed, obscuring their vision with dust and stone chips.
"It turns out that there are Jiaojiao." Wei Zhao said, "I want to become a dragon but I can't do it, no wonder you have to have dragon energy to get in, this is a white wolf with empty gloves." ”
"Don't rejoice too soon." Gongliangzhi reminded, "That's not a living Jiao, it's a magic weapon refined from the corpse of the dragon." ”
There was a dark shadow rising from the smoke and dust.
The shell of the stone carving peels off, revealing the crow-blue scales underneath. The dragon was discarded, but its speed did not decrease, and it followed closely with the flying sword. There was a green light brewing in its mouth, its mouth opened, and a water arrow pierced Gongliang to the back of the heart. Gongliang didn't look back, only mentioned his true qi and tightened the flying sword. I saw Wei Zhao pinching the trick violently, and the flying sword twisted violently at an unbelievable angle, brushing the ground and staggering the blue light.
The blue light swelled behind them, and the countless water arrows that exploded pierced the stone wall, smashing the hard stone wall mixed with gold essence into a sieve.
"Good guys!" Wei Zhao shouted, "Liangzhi, give me a sweep array, I'll meet this long worm!" ”
Gongliang nodded and jumped down as the flying sword passed the stone pillar. Jiaolong was cunning, and he didn't follow Wei Zhao, who was flying around the bend in front, but turned around and followed Gongliangzhi. Gongliang Zhizhen Qi is running at full strength, and the speed of the fall is extremely fast. As if he knew that he couldn't run Jiaolong on the ground, he didn't move after he landed, he only defended and didn't attack, and countless layers of shields were opened and torn, and the layers were endless, and the Jiaolong was dragged for a few breaths.
The timing of the shield opening was very clever, one layer was broken and the other layer was filled, and the dragon attacked endlessly in the illusion that it could solve a trouble, and only then did it suddenly stop when it attacked the fourth layer.
The Jiaolong that had been refined into a magic weapon had lost most of its mind, and it was not so much that it realized that something was wrong, but that it instinctively felt great danger. A scorching fire fell from the sky, like thunder, brilliant as if the heavenly fire fell to the ground.
It's a sword.
Wei Zhao held the short sword that had become smaller again, and the human sword was one, and it fell straight down like a meteor. Gongliang dragged Jiaolong back, and Wei Zhao took this opportunity to complete the accumulation.
Jiaolong turned his head and saw this sword, but he could only look at it.
At a glance, I felt that the sharp sword momentum of the eyes was painful and the fiery sword intent of the fire sword blended together, unstoppable, and pierced through the intestines at the same time as the dragon noticed it, splitting the torso several zhang long into two. The hard half-dragon body suddenly exploded, and the flying scales pierced through the stone wall, sinking more than a few feet into it. Gongliang had been prepared for a long time, and the Great Array of Thick Earth had risen again to protect himself.
If Jiaolong went to chase him, Gongliangzhi would take the opportunity to set up a formation and complete the killing formation when Wei Zhao walked the dragon. If Jiaolong chases Gongliangzhi, Gongliangzhi can also drag it down, allowing Wei Zhao to take the opportunity to do it. They have cooperated to kill the enemy thousands of times, and they can know each other's plans with a glance, and Jiaolong's change of tactics is not an accident at all.
"Happy!" Wei Zhao laughed loudly, and the sword qi tore all the wreckage that flew around, not a single drop of blood was stained.
The dragon fell, the coiling dragon pillar suddenly collapsed, and a large hole appeared in the ceiling, and bright light penetrated through it. Wei Zhao was spotless in the flying flesh and blood, and turned over the flying sword again, the sun shone on him, what a handsome young man-he smiled, his face showed two dimples, and he looked full of youthful spirit, and he couldn't tell his age at all. Gongliangzhi looked at him and smiled, and he couldn't help but smile, only feeling that his body and mind were relaxed, as if he had crawled in a dark cave for many years, and only now did he see the light of day again.
The young man took a swoop with his sword, and when he flew to the lowest point, his ape arm relaxed, and he scooped Gongliangzhi onto the flying sword. He was about to say something, but his face was stunned, as if he was frightened.
"Liangzhi?" Wei Zhao said cautiously, "What are you crying for?" ”
Cry?
Gongliang was a little dazed, and reached out and touched his face. Traces of warm water smeared on his fingertips, sliding down his cheeks one after another.
Gongliangzhi felt that his chest was stuffy, like a wound stuffed in the dark, and it didn't grow well, but it grew moldy flowers, and it was like a blunt knife cutting flesh for many years. And when the blood scab was lifted one day, it was still bloody and painful.
Why? The dry sky and the double walls are as always, slaying demons and eliminating demons, ten thousand people are not to be done, what is there to cry about?
"Look, the door!"
Wei Zhao let out an exclamation and pointed to the top, and a gate could indeed be seen in the sky open, and as long as he ascended, he could leave the Relic Mansion. He seemed to have made up his mind to go outside and investigate his friend's anomaly, and as soon as the flying sword moved, it was going upward.
Gongliang Zhi grabbed him.
Gongliang Zhi felt that his chest was burning and aching, which was not entirely an illusion. The awakening pendant that Zhan Yi gave him before leaving was so hot that it was almost burnt flesh, and he had been warned for a long time, but he only had the ability to find out at this time.
"That's enough, Zhao." Gongliang smiled tiredly, "I know, you're long gone. ”
