Chapter 256: Haunted Turmoil
"Is that so?"
Xia Yu pursed her lips, although she couldn't be sure where the eighth volume of Vientiane Jue was for the time being, but this suddenly had another volume of Vientiane Jue, which made her one step closer to her plan to save the Northern Stygian. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"Wait, what's on this?"
Xia Yu was still immersed in the joy of getting another piece of Vientiane Formula, but he didn't want Yifeng to suddenly turn the parchment roll over. I saw that on it, there were many dense dots, a staggered and complex road map outlined by charcoal. There is not a single word on the road map, and the only thing that can be understood is the mark that represents the undulation of the mountains, and the number of rivers, and a huge circle.
"It's like a map, but it's not."
Yifeng looked at the scribbled line above, his eyebrows wrinkled, his face sank, and when he saw the summer rain, he immediately turned his head reflexively and looked at the weather in the window.
I wonder if he's going to be upset again.
"What are you looking at?" As soon as his eyes darkened, Yifeng took in all the small movements of Xia Yu, even a look.
"No, I didn't look at anything, I was just speculating about what was painted on it."
Xia Yu smiled faintly and said. As soon as the words fell, I didn't want Yifeng to stretch out my slender fingers, swiped lightly on the parchment roll, and explained:
"If this is a map, it should have been drawn in a hurry or in a critical situation. If my guess is correct, the point of this piece should be the forest, and those zigzag lines should represent the way to avoid those dangerous places in the forest. ”
The white fingers, from the beginning of the line, followed the mark above, and finally came to a place where circles were drawn.
"If this picture was drawn in a hurry, then what does it represent?"
Xia Yu asked, but as soon as he finished speaking, his figure suddenly froze, and a terrible guess instantly swept through his mind.
"The night I was caught, there was not only the nine-tailed fox...... And also...... And my father, Jiang Yingheng! So, if the picture drawn on it is really a map, then could it be a map that guides us to the demon world? ”
"Demon Realm? That barren land that has to pass through dozens of miles of poisonous mist forests and tens of thousands of mountains? How is this possible......"
"Why can't it be? After the fall of the nine-tailed fox, it was very likely that it was because he had been hiding in the demon world, so the Four Realms failed to find any footprints about him, and they all thought he was dead. ”
Xia Yu said, but he was even more convinced in his heart that this was very likely that Jiang Yingheng hastily wrote down the map of the demon world under the pursuit of Na Yi Wuxian. he
Knowing that he couldn't escape, he wanted to write down the route so that he could escape in the future......
It's just that Jiang Yingheng didn't expect it. He will be deprived of his soul by Yi Wuxian and become a puppet of his cultivation of forbidden arts, and he will not be able to escape at all.
"Xiaoyu, I know what you want to say. But what surprised me was not that the nine-tailed fox hid in the demon world to practice forbidden arts, but that since your father was captured and went to the demon world, he could still escape again, how could he still have the opportunity to draw this map about the demon world!? ”
When Xia Yu heard this, he looked at him, and his heart was pounding...... Don't have a chance? Does Yifeng mean that this map is fake? Or is it that the pattern behind this Vientiane recipe is not a map at all, everything is just that they think too much!
But it shouldn't be!
Because this volume of the recipe is indeed true-
"I know what you're thinking, but whether this map is real or not, with your current strength, you're no match for that person at all. So ......"
"What about you?" Yifeng guessed Xia Yu's thoughts, and didn't want her to risk her life because of a map that might be a trap. However, before the words fell, he didn't want Xia Yu to directly interrupt his words.
"Yifeng, with the power of the five volumes of Vientiane Jue plus you, is it possible to defeat that person......" His eyebrows furrowed slightly, and Xia Yu asked with a solemn face.
With a long sigh, Yifeng shook his head helplessly. Xia Yu was puzzled, she didn't understand how powerful the nine-tailed fox was, why with the power of the five volumes of Vientiane Jue, plus him as a god king...... None of them are Yi Wuxian's opponents......
"Xiaoyu, I know you're worried about the Northern Night. But if you haven't found the eight volumes of the recipe and learned all the techniques above, you'd better not joke with your life. Also, you have to understand that you have to deal with not only that person, but also the puppets who are controlled by him and have cultivated the forbidden art of the Protoss. ”
Yifeng glanced at her, his eyes were faint, and then he said slowly: "The power of the ancient forbidden art is terrifying, more than nine thousand years ago, the Four Realms were almost destroyed in his hands because of this. Now that so much time has passed, none of us knows what his strength is and what kind of realm the power of the forbidden art has reached. ”
Xia Yu clenched his fists and stared at the fifth volume of Vientiane Jue.
If the map above is true, it means that she can rely on the route on the map to find the Northern Night. But...... With her current skills, even if she found it, she couldn't save Yi Wuxian.
"Sorry, I know what to do. Don't worry, I'll be sure to find the remaining three volumes of Vientiane as soon as possible. Xia Yu closed her eyes tightly, trying not to look at the road map behind the parchment scroll, where the circle was drawn, she seemed to be able to see that the Northern Styx was waiting for her there.
Damn the nine-tailed fox!
She couldn't wait to skin him and cut off his tail one by one!
Whether it's the North Styx or Jiang Yingheng...... She swore she would save them.
Yifeng looked at her with a resolute look, and a sour feeling slipped through his heart. However, what made him sad was not that Xia Yu was bent on saving other men, but that Xia Yu was ...... When she saves people, she seems to forget that she is also a half-race race.
She has demon and human blood in her body, and her own situation is also very dangerous.
And the reason why he has been by her side for so long is to protect her and not let that person have a chance to attack.
"Xiaoyu, can you tell me how important the place of the Northern Dark Night is in your heart? Why...... I feel that you care about him, more than you care about me......" With a silent face, he couldn't see his joy and anger, and Yifeng in front of him suddenly asked lightly, making Xia Yu, who was already depressed, a little unsure how to answer.
It's important, right?
Because he had promised to give him a worry-free life for a lifetime, because he had told him more than once that man will win the sky, and as long as he works hard, he will be able to change his fate.
"I'm sorry, I don't know how to answer you...... But I know very well in my heart that no matter how big the difficulties are, I will definitely not let him go. ”
*****
Xia Yu and Yifeng set off the next day to start leaving the Imperial Tomb. Originally, Xia Yu was planning to go back to Edgeworth, but he didn't want to see a group of men in white clothes with hats on their heads, passing through the crowd in a low-key manner, not far from the city gate.
Wait a minute......
Why did those people's clothes look so much like the disciples of the Zhengyuan Palace?
Odd.
Why did they come to the Imperial Tomb Kingdom too!
Xia Yu quietly followed, and the disciple who led the way had helped Lu Yan bring a message to himself. Therefore, Xia Yu's sharp eyes recognized him at a glance.
They followed all the way to the outskirts of the city, and just as they were about to go back, Xia Yu hurriedly stepped forward and stopped them.
Tiancheng Zhengyuan Hall is the life's work of the great master, Mo Bing guards Tiancheng, although he has never been involved in the disputes of the four kingdoms. So, what are these disciples doing in the Emperor's Mausoleum?
Seeing Xia Yu appear, the disciples of the Zhengyuan Hall were immediately taken aback. However, Xia Yu directly ignored their exclamation and walked in front of the person who took the lead.
"Hey, do you remember me?!"
The corners of his mouth lifted slightly, Xia Yu just wanted to stop him, but suddenly realized that although he knew this little disciple, he didn't even know what his name was.
"Are you...... ...... Miss Summer Rain? "Tall figure, dressed in white, looks not worldly, even if it doesn't have Lu Yan's kind of restraint, it also gives people a feeling of pure spirit. When he saw the woman in front of him, the disciple still recognized her.
"It's me, how can the Zhengyuan Hall be thousands of miles away from this Imperial Tomb Country, seeing that you suddenly came here, I feel a little strange, is something happening?"
Xia Yu smiled, and the two were like acquaintances who suddenly met and greeted each other.
The disciples behind him saw that Xia Yu was a handsome girl, and they couldn't help but stretch their necks one by one to look at it. Especially when they heard the little senior brother who led them say that the girl's name was Xia Yu, they were more and more excited......
The disciples of Zhengyuan Hall stay in the Immortal Hall on weekdays, cultivating immortals and practicing the Fa, and rarely set foot in the mortal world without the order of the teacher. However, the Wanling Academy won the first place in the assessment in the back mountain, and also entered the Ten Thousand Swords Cave to find Xia Yu, who summoned the sword, and he can be regarded as a legend.
"Oh, it's fine, and we're going back now." The disciple at the head said with a straight face, but he didn't want the words to fall, and a disciple behind them actually stepped forward and said to Xia Yu:
"Alright? How could it be okay, the palace of the Imperial Tomb Kingdom was haunted, and the Emperor of the Imperial Tomb was so tossed that he couldn't sleep for a few days and nights, so he went to the Zhengyuan Hall to ask us for help. ”
"Mouthy!" With a scolding, the disciple immediately fell silent.
However, Xia Yu had already heard the key part, so he pulled the disciple led by him aside with a curious expression, and asked him in a low voice:
"Haunted? Is this true? For the disciples of your Zhengyuan Hall to be dispatched, presumably that ghost is not an ordinary small character, right? ”
Xia Yu smiled at the corner of her mouth, she was a human being in two lives, and Xia Yu's education had always made her never believe in any ghosts.
However, being reborn in another world and having so many extraordinary things happening around her made her a little interested in this haunted ghost she had never seen before.
"Miss Xia Yu laughed, in fact, we didn't go out to the ghost when we came to the Imperial Tomb this time, and we didn't even fight head-to-head. That's why I decided to return to the Zhengyuan Palace, intending to ask the national teacher to deal with the matter. ”
The disciple knew that he couldn't hide Xia Yu anymore because of what his subordinates said, so he calmly told all the things.
"Wouldn't it? What the hell is so powerful, I want you to go back and invite the great master to come in person?! Xia Yu was very surprised, because that Mo Bing Great Master was an existence beyond a god, although he guarded the Heavenly Inheritance and traveled between the four countries, but with his cultivation, the ghosts who could take his turn to make a move were by no means idle.
"Actually, something like this can be solved if Senior Brother Lu Yan hadn't retreated. But for some reason, after Princess Fei'er was poisoned, the national teacher was determined to ask his senior brother to retreat for two years, no matter how hard the disciples begged, he was indifferent. ”
The disciple was a little disappointed.
After all, in the Zhengyuan Palace, Lu Yan usually takes great care of his disciples, and even puts aside his identity as a senior disciple and cultivates with them. Therefore, the disciples in the sect did not understand the matter of the great master grounding Lu Yan.
"The national teacher asked Lu Yan to retreat, naturally he had his plans. After the last trip to the Demon Realm, Zhengyuan Hall also has a lot of trivial matters, so why don't you tell me about the haunted method of the Imperial Tomb Palace first, maybe you don't have to wait for the great master to come, and I will help you solve the problem! Xia Yu said with a smile and said disapprovingly.
"Can you help us?"
That disciple had a two-sided relationship with Xia Yu, although he knew that Xia Yu had found the summoning sword from the Ten Thousand Swords Cave and went to the Demon Realm again, he was definitely much stronger than these little disciples in terms of strength. However, what so many of their disciples failed to do, she was a little girl......
"My strength is not too bad compared to your senior brother Lu Yan, right? In case I can solve a problem that a woman can solve, you still go to trouble the great teacher and make him unhappy, isn't that too much fuss? Xia Yu raised his eyebrows, and as soon as his voice fell, he saw a little hesitation on the disciple's face.
Knowing that he felt a little embarrassed, he sighed lightly and said:
"To tell you the truth, my current strength is about to enter the sixth heaven, and with my relationship with the Zhengyuan Palace, how can I be regarded as a disciple of the Zhengyuan Palace!" The golden spiritual power belonged to the first heavens, Xia Yu didn't know, but the strength of these six heavens must be very high in their opinion!
"The Sixth Heaven...... Oh my God! As a woman, Miss Xia is not only smart and clever, but her strength is even more admirable. Merely...... The haunting of the Imperial Palace is really weird, and we don't feel at ease if you go as a girl. The disciple said with some concern, as if he still didn't want to let Xia Yu get into danger.
"It's just a ghost, there will always be a way to deal with it, let me try, if it doesn't work, I can get out of it." Xia Yu said with a meaningless face.
"Okay then...... Let's go back to the Emperor's Mausoleum to find an inn first, and then think about it in the long run. ”
The disciple nodded, and then took Xia Yu and the disciples of the Zhengyuan Hall back to return.
Of course, because he was worried that he would encounter the difficult prince after returning to the imperial tomb, Xia Yu decided to use the transformation technique again to change his appearance to facilitate his actions.
Yifeng, who was left behind, looked at her figure leaving with everyone, shook her head helplessly, her figure flashed, and disappeared.
