Chapter 250: The Way of Immortality
There was no one in the front hall, and the sound of shaking through the empty valley was accompanied by the crisp bell repeatedly stirring, so that the solid underground stone slabs were loosened and cracked, and the sound was endless, and the more he walked, the more deafening he became, he finally stopped in front of the cloud pavilion where the copper bell was hung, and with a wave of his big hand, people surrounded this water.
The Cloud Pavilion was towering and magnificent, casting black shadows on the guardrail, blocking the only remaining sunlight, Rong Jinhuan approached the old wooden door of vermilion lacquer step by step, and looked at it from the bottom up, his eyes were mocking or disdainful, and there was a ruthlessness as sharp as a sword. He raised his hand and tore off the cloth towel used for disguise, ordered the surroundings not to move, raised his hand to throw away the cloud veil, and slammed his palm on the door.
The heavy door sighed dullly and the hole opened, and the cold wind and ice and snow poured into the cloud pavilion with his impressive entry, and the lights flickered and flickered, and suddenly a mist rose to separate Rong Jinhuan's sight.
He slowly drew his sword and took two steps, and through the hot mist that gradually dissipated, he saw a person stepping in the lamplight, listening to his gradually approaching footsteps, pretending not to hear, and the wide sleeves brushed against the grand pillar and caused a tremble.
"Cheng Qingxuan, the 100,000 army has been deployed and on standby to hand over what I want, otherwise the day the order is given, it will be the time for my iron cavalry to set foot on the Fusu!" Rong Jinhuan handed out the hilt of the sword, and said coldly, with immeasurable courage.
Cheng Qingxuan only glanced at his plain clothes and majesty, and with a look of victory in hand, he said happily: "Didn't the emperor get what he wanted?" ā
Rong Jinhuan's eyes narrowed, and in the next moment, he jumped and stabbed straight with his hand, and the intimidating momentum only made him turn his head to dodge and turn to the side, only to find that his feet were floating, and the disc glowing with golden light under his feet began to rotate slowly at some point, and at this time, the pattern mechanism on the inner wall of the Cloud Pavilion also operated in reverse.
"I just don't know. When will the emperor's promise to me demolish the Star Picking Pavilion be fulfilled? Cheng Qingxuan stood on the opposite side of the disc, just separated from him by centrifugal equidistance. finished the second half of the sentence unhurriedly.
Rong Jinhuan was slightly surprised and quickly sank his face, and sneered: "The Star Picking Pavilion is an evil thing, and your high-rise mansion is the same thing, I can't complain about it!" As he spoke, he stabbed with his backhand, three points more powerful and seven points more persecuted than the sword he threatened.
"If the emperor wants to repent, why don't you say it clearly? If you want to come to Fusu to arouse the emperor's interest, there is only the way of immortality. Cheng Qingxuan quickly pulled out the soft sword that had always been hidden in the wide waist seal, and didn't look at him again. Instead, he paid more attention to the ground, one after another, and every time he landed, it was exactly the same. Make the disc rotate steadily along the lƬ.
"Not bad!" Rong Jinhuan admitted loudly, the force of swinging the sword was heavier than one time, and the coldness on his lips became more and more intense, "I really want to live forever!" I am destined for heaven. Punish those who threaten! I want you to Fusu's ancient scroll. Rejuvenating the country, prospering forever, the way of eternal life, I will not let others! ā
Cheng Qingxuan avoided his sword, his footsteps were steady but not chaotic, he resisted with a sword in one hand, and continued to press the mechanism of the column with the other, listening to his empty heart, and pushed him away a few steps with a single blow of his wrist. Raised his hand and slapped it fiercely on the rectangular blue brick engraved with cloud patterns, and said coldly: "Shipbuilding." ā
Rong Jinhuan is slightly fluted. I saw a pillar spinning towards the ground, and I was forced by the sword to defend it.
"Good governance." Cheng Qingxuan stepped forward, and with another palm, the column on the opposite side also roared and turned.
Rong Jinhuan listened to him read, and the haze in his heart suddenly drifted and enveloped his whole body.
"Iron." Cheng Qingxuan reported the third sound, forced back his sword momentum, and activated the column of the third rank.
The rotation of the disc accelerated significantly, Rong Jinhuan changed his fast steps to landing on the forefoot, the sword shadows were staggered, and he made a crisp sound, and his cold face turned into anxiety and anger.
"Fortified." Cheng Qingxuan finished reading the fourth, and had already pressed all the mechanisms of the four columns.
At this time, the disc rotated very fast, and both of them slowed down the battle of weapons, trying to stand firm here.
"Plant rice and divert water." Cheng Qingxuan quickly added, and the silver light in his hand flashed and destroyed the iron cables hanging on both sides and hooked on the inner wall of the Cloud Pavilion.
The disc turned fast, Rong Jinhuan was slaughtered all over his body, the forehead was slightly sweating, and the hatred on his face was all visible, and he had to stay in the air for a long time, so he had to turn over and retreat outside the disc, and stood up.
Cheng Qingxuan followed closely and landed beside him, the black robe cloud pattern reflected the glazed lamps in the pavilion as if floating, he was safe and said regretfully: "The twenty-eight outlines, with this six as the main point, have all been returned to the emperor, and the emperor has already obtained the way of immortality, so why bother looking for it?" ā
"In my hands?" Rong Jinhuan raised his eyebrows and gritted his teeth, angry from his heart, "Who doesn't know that Fusu escaps the world and thinks very highly of himself, and he wants to send me away?!" ā
"The emperor thinks this is not an important document?" Seeing his fine iron sword slashing again, Cheng Qingxuan raised his wrist to counter it with a soft sword, only listening to the crisp sound, the soft sword of self-defense was invincible to the fine iron that was as sharp as mud, the sword body was shattered, and the pieces of iron flew away, his complexion finally changed, and the silver light in his hand rose again, but this time it was aimed at Rong Jinhuan's heart and the hand holding the sword:.
Rong Jinhuan dodged away, but the back of his hand threw the fine iron sword because he was hit by the silver needle, he gritted his teeth and went in again, silently facing each other with his palms, Cheng Qingxuan's indifferent face turned into mockery and anger.
Cheng Qingxuan instinctively slapped with him, and then woke up again from the residual pain caused by the poison, and after barely taking two steps back, his color suddenly became cold, and he smashed the low-hanging glass lamp with his backhand, and the fragments were used as a shield in his hand, and his fingertips flew and threw it out, and his voice burst out, clear and abnormal: "I use them in exchange for the most valuable wealth in the world, and I don't bother to hide it and keep it!" ā
The broken hair stuck to his lips with sweat due to the stuffiness, Rong Jinhuan's face turned pale, and he was shocked by what he said, and the fear and unwillingness in his heart made him forget to dodge, the glass fragments cut through his clothes and flew behind him, and he had to take a few steps back after these violent blows.
"Golden Silk Soft Armor...... It seems that Tianyi's skilled craftsmen are also quite helpful. Cheng Qingxuan saw that under the tattered clothes on the side of his shoulders, there was a dazzling golden glow with a slight white, and suddenly sighed, re-stood, and said leisurely, "If I practice martial arts like you, I will be as evenly matched as Fang Cai, but it's a pity that you don't plan to compete fairly, and I don't need to show mercy." ā
Rong Jinhuan simply abandoned the broken coarse clothes and revealed the soft armor, his posture was tall and imposing, and the posture of the dragon chanting ascending to the sky hovered above his heart, and the shining of his body took away the brilliance of the room, making the glass lamp and gold and jade lose their color. Faced with Cheng Qingxuan's warning and unmoved, his mind turned, and then he looked at the fine iron sword that fell on the ground not far from him. Suddenly, he hooked his lips and smiled, extremely peaceful: "Today is the day of the winter sacrifice, and it depends on who will be blessed by God." ā
"Hey, Baizao can really deal with it?" On the gimbal, Cheng Qingwen landed on the ground, and asked Ruoyun who was looking at the railing.
"Maybe." Ruoyun stood with an umbrella, and the fiery red shawl was covered with silver and white. He only gave a vague answer, and turned his eyes to look at the woodland on the other side of the mountain road, where the sound of terror was rising one after another.
It was Cheng Qingwen's reopened spell array, the time and place were favorable, and the snow was falling like goose feathers. The sudden cold wind met the warm-up that rushed in and urged the array, and quickly enlarged in the tree array in the forest, trapping the Qingping Sect and others who sneaked up the mountain, but how cunning and hidden the master of this group is. Wind gusts and ice gusts absorb human heat. Thus making it difficult for them to move an inch.
"Hey, I warn you, you're not allowed to go to the Cloud Pavilion, right?" Cheng Qingwen didn't ask, looked at her face that was white and wanted to be transparent in nervousness, and immediately threatened.
"Hmm." Ruoyun nodded, turned around because of her words, the cloud platform could see the front mountain, the side view of the woodland, and the back of the main hall to see the cloud pavilion. Although the snow blurs the vision, it is very clear because of the connection of the heart.
Qingping did not practice much in the end. They never dared to go head-to-head with the army, so they infiltrated the garrison and mixed up part of the mountain, and the rest had to fight with the garrison on the other side of the drawbridge to break in. In this way, some of them were intercepted, whether it was poison or firearms, and there must be less than forty percent of them who could avoid the front mountain gate and climb over the mountains into the forest, so that they would give three points to the light, all under Rong Jinhuan's calculations.
Ruoyun thought, the palms hidden in his sleeves slowly closed into fists, Cheng Qingxuan wanted to urge the mechanism and disperse everyone, Bai Ze and his subordinates only stopped Rong Jinhuan's people for a while, if the other half of the people and horses on the lakeside were reinforced, they could only hope to open all the organs, but if it went on like this, it would make the two sides double their investment and cause rivers of blood......
"Okay, don't worry, you can't trust me, you have to believe the second brother? He set it up, and it can't go wrong. Cheng Qingwen saw that her expression was getting darker and darker, so she had to sigh and stretch out her hand to shake her cloak, and persuaded her with good words.
"Of course I don't believe him...... Ruoyun barely pulled out a smile, but as the doubts in her heart grew, only a trace disappeared, and finally said faintly, "There are still people who haven't appeared, the mechanism of the Cloud Pavilion needs heat, and if it drags on like this, I'm afraid that the night will be long and the dream will be too much, and I will stop halfway." ā
"You don't know anything." Cheng Qingwen raised her eyebrows with a smile, and said proudly, "Sometimes the mechanism is urged by borrowing force, sometimes by heat, then the Star Picking Pavilion is indeed to burn some charcoal fire and let people exert some force, but this is Longhua Villa." She pointed to her feet a little mysteriously, and smiled, "There is plenty of geothermal heat here, and the heat source is under the Cloud Pavilion, so I am not afraid to use it at all!" ā
Ruoyun was shocked, and finally smiled indifferently after being stunned for a moment: "That's good, the ice and snow have reduced the power of firearms, and the puppet is gone, which is really beneficial to us." ā
Cheng Qingwen listened to her "we", and was immediately overjoyed, and this time she patted her shoulder vigorously and said: "Don't worry, even if the emperor has three heads and six arms, he can't hurt my brother who has been practicing magic since he was a child. ā
"That's right." Ruoyun breathed a sigh of relief and moved the umbrella to her again.
But his heart calmed down, and a scream sounded out of thin air, like a sharp blade tearing through the silence of the falling snow through the mountain barrier, making Ruoyun and Cheng Qingwen's faces change greatly.
"It's a disaster, He Yuanming!" Ruoyun listened to the sound of the flute that was twice as effective with half the effort because of the echo, and the hand holding the paper umbrella trembled slightly.
"Oops, no, that array!" Cheng Qingwen patted her head, and immediately leaned out half of her body on the railing, and there was movement in the mechanism array that had been silent under the snow, and she hurriedly grabbed Ruoyun's hand and said urgently, "What should I do?!" My brother can't get out of the cloud pavilion now! ā
"You should know how to make music? Fight poison with poison! Ruoyun's mind reflected Yao Huashan's flute at that time, Cheng Qingxuan's flute was fighting, and he was busy building yƬ road.
Cheng Qingwen looked dazed, and then withdrew her hand with a sad and anxious negative spirit: "No!" What the Cheng family is good at is light work, not Qingyin, and Yu Baize will not either. Huai Xuanmo is a knot, but he's not there! She said that she was already a little uncomfortable, and instead put her hands over her ears and held her breath.
Ruoyun was stunned when she heard her, Mo said that they wouldn't, Cheng Qingxuan's jade flute had also been folded on the hall, and now the villa was unbeatable, and the sound of this flute spread far and wide, presumably that person was already in an excellent position.
She looked around helplessly, secretly hating that she was powerless to help, but the thought flashed and she suddenly came back to her senses, hurriedly pulled Qingwen, patted the back of her hand, and said loudly to her: "I have a way!" Do as I say! (To be continued......)
