Chapter 90: The Moving Mountains
"Of course, I believe you can kill me now, but if you kill me, she will never be saved." The witch laughed, "Do you really think that if you kill me, these problems will be solved?" What you promised us warlocks, and what your love is about to die in the voodoo forest, what will happen if it is made public? Hey, hey, hey. ”
Zhao Hongyi was furious, but the old witch was right, now that this kind of thing is exposed, it will definitely cause the anger of everyone in Zhao Kingdom.
Zhao Hongyi finally had to hold back his breath and said coldly: "What do you want?" ”
"Hey, hey, hey." The old witch smiled and said, "It's nothing, it's just that I've always had a witchcraft that I can't practice, and now I have the conditions, and I want the second prince to agree to my little request." ”
Zhao Hongyi said: "What requirements?" ”
The witch looked at her wickedly, and after a half-sound, she said, "I need the blood of a virgin." ”
Zhao Hongyi's face changed greatly, and he said, "Didn't you already absorb a few boys and girls before, how much more do you want?" ”
The witch said: "It's not enough, it's far from enough, the blood of the boys and girls before was just used to practice holy water for you, and now I want to cultivate myself, and the blood of the children I need is far more than this." ”
Zhao Hongyi felt that all this was against his heart, but looking at Xia Yuqiu's empty eyes, as if he had lost his soul, he was heartbroken, and finally hesitated for a moment and said hard.
"How much?"
The witch smiled and said, "Two hundred." ”
"Two hundred!?" Zhao Hongyi was shocked, couldn't calm down for a long time, and said, "What about the holy water?" How long it takes. ”
The witch smiled and said, "Holy water, it will take at least two days to develop, don't you know it too, Your Royal Highness the Second Prince." ”
Zhao Hongyi clenched his fists, now he made mistakes again and again, but there was no turning back, his heart was extremely struggling and tormented, and finally gritted his teeth.
"This is your last condition, if you dare to fool me again, do you know the consequences?" Zhao Hongyi said.
Seeing that the conditions were met, the witch couldn't help but have a twist on her face, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will do what I say, as long as you promise to give me two hundred boys' blood, I will definitely be able to help you make the beauty obedient." ”
Zhao Hongyi sat on the edge of the bed and hugged Xia Yuqiu tightly, Xia Yuqiu was like a soulless body, and his pupils had already lost their luster. Zhao Hongyi felt pain and regret, he looked at Xia Yuqiu and said secretly in his heart: "No matter what, I will turn you into my person, no matter how much you pay." ”
The witch was smiling in the room, and in those vicious eyes, who knew what was still being calculated.
On the other side of the city, life in the neighborhood of the city of Goollans is fading in the middle of the night, and some late-night barbecue stalls sit with adventurers passing by along the way. Yang Cheng, Da Lang Ge, and Rose left the inn after nightfall, bought three horses in the stable, and headed for the broken valley dozens of kilometers away from Gurans.
In order not to attract attention, Yang Cheng discussed with Brother Da Lang and decided to act at night. Seeing that Da Lang Ge and Rose have both improved their injuries, Yang Cheng is also bound to Banish the Giant Sword, but the bad news is that under the use of these days, the blood stored in the Water Drop Ring has long been exhausted.
Although Yang Cheng had considered this problem, now that time was pressing, he had to find another artifact to strengthen his team on the premise of failing to obtain the Infernal Blade.
Horses gallop on the roads on the outskirts of the city of Gurans.
Brother Lang was so excited that he couldn't calm down, and he couldn't sleep all night. He had asked Yang Cheng many times, why did you take him to find the artifact now, isn't your own business unfinished? Aren't you afraid that I'll leave without permission after I get the artifact?
Yang Cheng said: "We have experienced so much, we are all born and died, I believe that Brother Da Lang, you are a person who values love and righteousness, and this banished giant sword will belong to you sooner or later." ”
Brother Da Lang was very moved, and Yang Cheng also knew that Brother Da Lang was a person, and now that he was in crisis, it was not harmful to get the Banishing Giant Sword as soon as possible, but it could help him.
Although the level of banishing the giant sword was set by Yang Cheng himself, but so many years have passed, who knows what big changes have changed in the Lost Realm, and Yang Cheng is also a little apprehensive.
Rose, riding on horseback, was in a state of mind all night, always feeling that something ominous was going to happen.
The three of them came to a three-way intersection in the suburbs, Yang Cheng looked at the dilapidated street sign, one side was the path leading to the broken valley, and the other two, one was the road leading to Zhao Guo.
Yang Cheng said secretly in his heart: "Female devil, you have to wait for me." ”
Thinking of this, Yang Cheng was saddened and rode his horse towards the broken valley. Da Lang Ge and Rose followed closely behind, galloping towards the Broken Valley together.
The sky was overcast on this night, as if a light rain was about to fall, the bright moon was obscured by thick clouds, and the whole path of the broken valley was pitch black.
Da Lang Ge took out a torch and lit it, and the path up the valley was brightened, and the sound of horses' hooves echoed in the cliffs.
There is nothing unusual about the mountains of the entire Broken Valley, and it is even a little calm, but Rose is very puzzled, like this kind of cliff Grand Canyon, it should be full of all kinds of magical beasts, this mountain range is surprisingly quiet.
Although it is not as eerie as Dream Forest, and the sounds of demonic beasts echo in various ways, it is not even the sound of insects.
Rose felt that something was wrong, and the three of them rode their horses down the path, although the horses did not encounter the monster, but the nasal cavity kept making restless sounds, as if they felt danger.
Yang Cheng frowned, holding a torch to illuminate this mountain range, and after walking for more than half an hour, he didn't even see the Broken Valley, which was a little unexpected, and the Broken Valley of Memory should be nearby.
Rose rode on horseback and said lightly: "Husband, I feel that something is wrong with this mountain range, have we gone in the wrong direction?" ”
Yang Cheng's torch illuminated the surroundings, and the end of the path was pitch black, which made Yang Cheng frown a little, and said, "This is here in my memory, there shouldn't be anything wrong." ”
Brother Lang said: "Brother, do you know anything about Broken Valley? ”
Yang Cheng nodded and said, "There was a little bit before, but after so much time, I'm not sure about it." ”
Brother Lang carried the giant sword on his back, and the horse leaned over and said: "I have only heard that this road is rumored to be a shortcut to the city in the sky, but no one has ever set foot here, that is, most of the nearby residents go up the mountain to chop firewood. As for the reasons for this, I don't know very well. ”
"However, it seems that the adventurers who pass through the depths of the Broken Valley have all gone and never returned, and many strong people have disappeared there, and few people have dared to set foot since then."
Rose was a little frightened when she heard this, and said, "And this is the case?" Isn't this similar to the Dragonspine Snow Field, but no matter how you look at it, it looks like an ordinary mountain valley, and it doesn't have the harsh climate of the Dragon's Back Snow Field, how can you trap people? ”
Brother Lang shook his head and said, "I don't know, I just heard about it." The nearby residents are all cutting and collecting near this mountain forest, and rarely set foot in the broken valley, as for the strange things in the broken valley, basically no one dares to enter it. ”
Yang Cheng carefully recalled the picture of designing the Broken Valley back then, if those adventurers accidentally set foot in the Broken Valley, there would always be many necromantic knights in the Broken Valley, all of whom were guarding the Banished Giant Sword, if those adventurers trespassed and there was no return, it would definitely be an inevitable situation.
Thinking of this, Yang Cheng gradually became a little nervous, and touched the water drop ring, there was not much blood stored in it, and this time it was also a big adventure.
Yang Cheng said: "If you come, you will be safe, I have a way, although I don't know if it will work now, but we have no way out." ”
Rose said, "Husband, do you want us to go back first and come over with more groups of people, just in case?" ”
Although Yang Cheng felt that Rose had a point, when he looked back, the endless path seemed to have already swallowed up the entrance.
Yang Cheng said: "You look back. ”
Rose and Da Lang turned around quickly, only to see that the environment behind them was unpredictable, and the path that had just come to them disappeared inexplicably, and a big mountain was behind them.
Rose was stunned and said, "How can this be?" ”
Brother Lang was also surprised, subconsciously touched the giant sword, although there was no roar of monsters around him, but at this time, silence was more terrifying than sound, and he felt the pressure invisibly.
Yang Cheng said: "From the time we came to the valley, I have already discovered that the terrain here will change, or those adventurers are trapped by the change of the valley terrain and cannot get out, and in the deepest part of the valley, there is the protection of the necromantic knight." Those people were trapped in the valley, and in the end, they stumbled into it by mistake, and they may go to the broken valley, so they have no return. ”
Yang Cheng thought carefully: "This mountain range, although it is different from the misty forest in the Dream Forest, is really a labyrinth, since we have come here, there is no way back. ”
Brother Lang was a little shocked and said: "It turns out that brother, you already knew, wouldn't we be trapped here even if we get the giant sword!?" ”
Yang Cheng smiled lightly and said, "No, as long as we get the Banishing Giant Sword, the mountain range will return to its original state, and we will be able to leave." ”
Rose looked at Yang Cheng intently, and even worshiped him a little, originally thought that this man was a guy who didn't learn and didn't know how to do it, but now she finally understood why he was with Xia Yuqiu.
Brother Lang said, "Are you sure? ”
Yang Cheng nodded and said, "Yes, there will be no mistake." ”
This map was designed by him, and Yang Cheng was sure that there would be no mistake. But how easy it is to get the artifact, thinking of this, Yang Cheng's expression became serious.
Rose said: "If this is the case, then it is much more reassuring, this mountain range is really strange, that is, in the short time we spoke, it seems to have moved again." ”
Yang Cheng said: "Let's go, we will find the broken valley in a while, remember that there is no order from me, don't touch around, there are a lot of mechanisms set up here, tonight, we must find the artifact." ”
Big Lang and Rose nodded together, and the three of them rode their horses and continued to walk along the seemingly endless path.
