Chapter 39: The Ghost Gate
Zhou Ke didn't expect that a Lu Hou Liang, who seemed inconspicuous, led to such an episode.
But now that I think about it, the ghosts in the underworld are poor, and they don't have any documents, so it's not just about looking at the outfit. After all, I haven't heard anyone say that they are pretending to be ghosts before.
After Meng Po left, Chang Yu said, "Then the next thing is to find Zhang Xiaoli?" In this matter, it is better to let the Seventh Courtyard take the lead. ”
Zhao Zhuren nodded, he had already called Shi Jianhong, and the other party should understand what it meant.
Zhang Xiaoli is a member of the Seventh Courtyard, and they should stand up to the front. Moreover, the rest of the courts must also give up this position and not be in the limelight.
Taking 10,000 steps back, where else can Zhang Xiaoli disappear from, and will the other courtyards stage a thousand-mile chase for the murderer?
The Third Yuan of the Li Dynasty has strung together the affairs of Zhang Xiaoli and King Chu Jiang, and has already made meritorious contributions.
"By the way, will there be any changes in the training of newcomers in the Seventh Academy?" Sanyu asked.
It's not that she's afraid of the Seventh Academy's tricks, but as soon as this incident comes out, it's easy to delay the matter again, and other things can wait, but this kind of newcomer training, the teaching plan that should be carried out, can't be delayed.
It's really not good, and the rest of the courts can support it appropriately. Although the teaching of newcomers is cumbersome, it does not require too high strength and the main level is enough to be competent.
Zhao Zhuren said: "I'll call Lao Shi." ”
Timely communication is the right way.
"It's not a big problem, this matter was decided after discussion among the houses of the Inner Court, and it will not be easily changed." Zhao Zhuren put down the phone and said.
"Security, guaranteed, right?" Sanyu Question.
Zhao Zhuren smiled and said, "The strength of the Seventh Academy, where can it be worse?" As long as their newcomers don't go wrong on the road and arrive at the Seventh Courtyard, they should be responsible. We also have two people, uh, it's just the two of you, Zhou Ke Liuyu, who went to help out, and there was also a liaison. It's time for you to study. If you are on the way, you have to find two senior titles, specifically, Yu'er, you can do it. ”
Seeing that things had not changed, Sanyu said, "Okay, anyway, just these few days, it makes no difference if it's one day earlier or one day later, and I'll send a notice to the hospital tomorrow." Senior Sister He, let's go, are you still here to disturb the dean's rest? ”
He Yuyu sat up lazily, put the white coat behind him, and didn't put it on, and said, "I'm on duty at the hospital tonight." ”
"There is a special rest room on duty in the hospital." Sanyu Road.
"That bed, everyone is sleeping, I have a habit of cleanliness, I'm not used to it, so I'm just going to settle here, anyway, if there's anything that can't be handled, I can ask the dean." After He Yuyu finished speaking, he lay down again, took advantage of the situation with his right hand, took the mobile phone on duty on the table, and put it beside him. Then he waved again, took the supper that Liu Ying bought, glanced at the package, and said to himself, "Smiling prawns? What brand of shrimp chips? ”
Sanyu looked at Zhao Zhuren, meaning what do you say.
Zhao Zhuren knew that He Yuyu was indeed tired today, and said: "Forget it, Xiao He, if you really don't want to move the nest, go and sleep inside, I just have something to do, and I want to discuss it with Bi Si." ”
After speaking, they walked out of the dean's office, and Wang Xi and the three of them naturally walked out with them.
Sanyu didn't expect his senior brother to be so accommodating to He Yuyu, and before he had time to feel jealous, he immediately dodged, ran to the door of the duty room, and said to He Yuyu: "I'm too lazy to leave, and I should get up again in two hours, so I'll go to bed." Don't bother me if you have a call. ”
After saying that, he closed the door, but he didn't lock it.
For these people, a door is not locked, there is no meaning.
Wang Xi asked, "Do you want me to call Senior Brother?" ”
No one wants to pay attention to him, and he can't hear such an obvious excuse?
After a long time, Zhao Zhuren looked at Wang Xi and said, "I don't know if you should say that you have a good brain or a pit, but indeed, sometimes, what you say is very useful." This time, take care of yourself, it won't be the kind of training you last time. Do you know, the matter of your skipping class, although the Ministry of Medical Education suppressed it on its own initiative, it still reached my ears. Don't embarrass me, don't embarrass the face of the three courtyards, even if you are a very watery senior brother, you have to have a look. Your Senior Brother Zhou and Senior Brother Liu followed, so they didn't revolve around you, understand? At that time, the Seventh Courtyard still had to pay them a salary, and they also had a lot to do. ”
Although these are all talking about some very ordinary little things, Wang Xi understands it. Even if it is a waste wood like himself, the master has been silently paying attention to himself.
"Master, where are you going?" Wang Xi looked at Zhao Zhuren's distant back and asked.
"In a good mood and bad, go out hunting. Eventful times, reduce everyone's workload. ”
Zhao Zhuren's voice floated over, but his figure had disappeared.
Zhou Ke and Liu Ying glanced at each other, and in less than a second, their opinions were agreed. The two grabbed Wang Xi's shoulders one left and one right, and they directly opened the window next to the corridor and jumped down.
The master is going to open a small stove!
I didn't have time to explain to the little junior brother, even the two of them could only faintly capture the vague spiritual sense that Zhao Zhuren deliberately released.
If you can't keep up, it means that you don't even have the qualifications to open a small stove!
"Here is ······" Wang Xi looked at Zhao Zhuren, who was standing in front of the Ghost Gate Pass and waiting for some time, and he was a little confused.
Wang Bisi seemed to have been notified by Zhao Zhuren, rushed over, and was negotiating with the ghost on duty in front of the door.
Two minutes later, Wang Xi was surprised to find that the ghost door was closed and opened······
"Silly, go." Zhao Zhuren didn't have to explain anything to Wang Bisi at all, and the latter had already turned a wad of paper money into ashes.
This, this, it's so easy to open the ghost door and close it, just spend a little money?
That's a bit of an informality, isn't it?
"Actually, the understanding of the world is not comprehensive, junior brother, do you deserve this title when you look at this ghost gate? Remember? I told you that the construction of the Ghost Gate Pass consumed Huangquan stone, and later the underground government stopped continuing to build a new Ghost Gate Pass because it felt that the consumption was huge. But with the scale of this stone gate and the materials of the Yin and Yang worlds, can it only support the construction of ten doors? Zhou Ke whispered.
Zhao Zhuren's figure, with his back to everyone, stood at the front of the stone gate, and as the gap between the stone gate opened became bigger and bigger, a yin wind began to whistle out from inside.
"To be precise, this is the ghost gate, and to be worthy of the ghost gate, you should be able to understand the following things by yourself." Liu Ying patted him on the shoulder, and he was actually very excited.
It seems that tonight's harvest is destined to be not small!
Wang Xi imagined the famous Tiger Prison Pass Surabaya Pass in his mind, and couldn't help but feel a little shocked. That's right, when I hear about the ghost gate, I don't think anything, I understand it as a door according to what is said in film and television works or novels, but I didn't expect that it is really a pass in the literal sense!
When the gap between the stone door opened was three meters wide, Zhao Zhuren stepped in.
This inconspicuous step, across the line, is yin and yang. The reverse is the heavens.
Wang Xi followed the three senior brothers, and followed suit.
He could feel that only Senior Brother had had this kind of experience, otherwise, Senior Brother Zhou and Senior Brother Liu would not have been like him, there was a slight hesitation and pause when they entered that door.
Wang Xi unconsciously released his spiritual sense, and just released it, he found that everyone didn't do it, so he had to take it back.
He was the last to take this step, but as soon as he stepped in, nothing happened. My body didn't feel any discomfort, but I had the most intuitive experience, that is, cold. Even now, with such a good physique, he feels cold.
It was a cold that penetrated deep into the bone marrow, and no matter how much he rubbed his hands and stomped his feet and hugged his chest with his hands, he couldn't dispel half a minute. This cold acts on the soul.
Zhao Zhuren looked at his appearance and said, "It's useless, this has nothing to do with strength, it's good if you adapt to it more, now, you understand the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, right?" ”
Yin and yang are separated, even if they are as strong as Zhao Zhuren, there is no way to do this.
"The people of the underworld ······" Wang Xi asked in a low voice.
Zhao Zhuren nodded and said, "Yes, that's why they chose to enter the yang world at night, but they can't stay for a long time." How's that, this way, guessed it? ”
Wang Xi looked at the straight road in front of him, and naturally understood that this was the legendary Huangquan Road. His gaze followed the direction of the road, looking into the distance.
However, there was a huge deviation from the image of Guan Pass in his mind again. Because his vision was blocked······
It's not that he can't see clearly because it's too far away, but it's real, something, blocking the view!
He found that on his left and right sides, there were black cliffs, and the Huangquan Road under his feet was no more than ten meters wide.
And this black cliff is estimated to be at least 200 meters high.
He quickly turned around and looked at the way he came.
The ghost gate is not related yet, it's just ······
Above the ghost gate, there is still a black cliff.
Inside and outside this ghost gate, there are really two different spaces.
"Do you see?" Zhao Zhuren asked.
Wang Xi was still in shock. It's like this for everyone, and when you're in front of a huge, magnificent building, it's easy to feel a sense of insignificance deep down.
Especially now, when you're still in another world.
How could he not understand?!
What the senior brother just said is right, but not all of them.
That stone gate really can't be counted as a ghost gate, but once you pass the stone gate, you will be in the ghost gate!
The cliffs on the left and right, the passes in front, and the cliffs inlaid by the stone gate behind them are all made of Huangquan stone!
This is the real hell gate!
This is the real Huangquan Road!
Once you pass through this stone gate, life and death are no longer under your control.
Anyone who tried to attack the Ghost Gate Pass could only crowd on this narrow Huangquan Road. There are cliffs on the left and right that you can't climb, so you can only go all the way forward.
Even for a person like Wang Xi who can only talk on paper, several defense methods immediately appeared in his mind, which were enough to annihilate all the enemies who would attack in the future, on this veritable Huangquan Road.
He raised his head and looked overhead, and sure enough, at the top of the cliff, there was a forest of ghost fires. There must still be Yin soldiers stationed there. Once there is an invading enemy, as long as they can't break through the front pass, they will only be slaughtered here.
Don't talk about Wang Xi, even Zhao Zhuren has also made an assessment. Even if he tried to storm the pass in front of him with the power of the entire courtyard of the three courtyards, and he still sneaked in after putting down the ghost messenger on duty for a sneak attack, he couldn't do it.
Ten minutes at most, and it will be a corpse in one place.
Don't forget, thousands of years ago, the Tai Hospital guarded the ghost gate, never to prevent someone from attacking it, but to prevent ghosts from coming out......
Therefore, the underworld and the courtyard have not been very clear about the fact that the bereaved people have been trying to open the ghost gate, especially at the beginning, they simply don't know what kind of opponent they will face.
For thousands of years, there have indeed been two stunned seniors in the Tai Hospital who tried to go to the underworld to see what it was like, but they all returned in vain in front of the real ghost gate, and were carried back by the people's underworld.
"Understood, master." Wang Xi still maintained the posture of looking at the sky, sighing at how much Huangquan Stone needed to be consumed in this ghost gate.
"It's still relatively simple, the people in the underworld are lazy. There are so many military geniuses and Mo elites who are proficient in defense, and it is still the most primitive ghost gate pass structure, if you have the opportunity to go to the ghost gate pass of the tenth courtyard to have a look, then you will know what is called dangerous. ”
After Zhao Zhuren said this, he showed a mysterious smile.
Of course, the design of the ghost gate of the Tenth Courtyard was discussed with the prefecture a long time ago. Since that time, Huaxia has maintained the uniqueness of its contact with the prefecture, what if it doesn't complicate it? This kind of thing has not happened, in the national disaster of the last century, the Ten Courtyards were basically expelled by the RB Empire controlled by ****, but the onmyoji of RB still failed to step into the underworld half a step, it is enough to imagine how complicated the structure of this finally completed ghost gate is.
Wang Xi continued to look around. In the classics of the courtyard, there is a record of the underworld - it was written by the group of stunned predecessors.
In the description in the book, the underworld is not a dark place, but a foggy gray. I couldn't see anything clearly, but I could see a rough outline. Everything needs to be perceived with spiritual sense.
That's it now, although you can't see the pass city defense in the distance at a glance, Wang Xi's spiritual sense can feel everything along the way as soon as it spreads out a little. It's just that when he was about to explore the city, he was blocked by an invisible force.
He knew that the master brought everyone here, of course, not for a day trip to the underworld, so he withdrew his spiritual sense and stood aside quietly.
At this time, a ghost general dressed in the distance hurriedly came, respectfully saluted Zhao Zhuren, and with a wave of his hand, several Yin soldiers immediately appeared, holding long sticks, surrounded him, and then handed out the sticks in his hands with both hands.
Wang Xi looked at the Yin soldiers who bowed their heads in front of him and his senior brothers, and was a little overwhelmed.
"Take it." Zhao Zhuren said softly.
Wang Xi took the stick and compared it slightly with the senior brothers, and there was no obvious difference.
It feels like an ordinary wooden stick, and even the weight is in line with his experience.
He couldn't figure out what the master was trying to do.
"Zhou Ke, Liu Yin, Wang Xi!" Zhao Zhuren suddenly called names.
The three of them immediately straightened up and faced their master.
"Three to one, the three of you, attack Biji, of course, he will attack you too. There is a condition, if any of you attack him, he will lose, what about him, only if you attack Wang Xi, you will lose, it's very simple, do you understand? Zhao Zhuren's figure stepped aside, his back against the black cliff. And those ghost generals have long since disappeared.
When Wang Xi was still wondering why there was such a strange setting, Zhao Zhuren added: "Oh, by the way, this stick is the prototype of the third-generation scalpel, and if it is hit directly, the soul will hurt very much." ”
