The strangeness of this blood appearance, Tang Shi never even noticed. The long sword at his waist was removed, and blood seemed to be spilling from the blade.

"Alive?" Tang Shi was a little surprised, and tried to touch the blood with his hand, which was sticky and moist.

At that moment, the door at the end of the corridor creaked open. A dazzling white light shot out of the door.

Holding a long sword in his hand, he squinted at the white expanse in front of him. Take things as they come. Tang Shi has a long-term curiosity about all unknowns. This is one of the few virtues that he considers to be a few.

Since it is a merit, it must be maintained. Walk towards the light. The corridor is deep, but there is an end.

The moment he walked inside, the door behind him closed again. Tang Shi was not surprised by this.

I thought it was just another room, but when I walked in, I realized that it was a world. There was a round of sun hanging overhead, bright and white. In the distance, the waves are rolling thousands of sails, and the sea breeze is gentle. Tang Shi could even smell the peculiar fishy smell of seawater. At your feet is a gravel path that winds its way to the top of the mountain.

The trail is cramped, and only one person is allowed. Overlooking the cliffs on both sides, there is a danger of falling every minute.

Look behind you, empty and there is no way back. With a chuckle, Tang Shi walked up the path.

The waves crash on the shore, and the waves rumble. With the ebb and flow of the tide, Tang Shi walked to the top of the mountain. There is a pagoda on the top of the mountain.

The pagoda has six layers, each layer is hexagonal, and the horn hangs a sword. The base of the tower is eight-sided, carved lotus.

Although there are six floors, the tower is not high, and Tang Shi visually measured about 145 meters. Between the second and third floors, there is a plaque with the inscription: 'Capture Rong'.

Captured? Could it be that this Min Xu is still a general? Tang Shi smiled and walked up the stairs.

Push open the door, and there is a mural on the front. There is a man in the painting, and the movements should be dancing with a sword. I can't appreciate the ancient painting Tang Shi, but only from the one-sided senses, this painting skill is exquisite and lifelike.

The painting angle is a side depiction of the sword dancer, only half of the face is exposed, I don't know what the reason is, this painting is stylistic, and half of the face of the sword dancer is no longer visible.

An old voice sounded behind him: "You're the first to come here." ”

Tang Shi was stunned, he didn't hear someone coming behind him. Turning around, an old man with a gray beard was standing behind Tang Shi, the old man was dressed in coarse cloth and was holding a cane.

Tang Shi squinted his eyes and looked at it, and then said, "Min Xu? ”

The old man smiled and nodded in response. Walking into the hall, the old man looked around, looking like he was revisiting the old place.

In the end, his eyes stayed on the sword dance mural, and his expression seemed to be reminiscing. sighed lightly: "Martial ministers, Yaoxiong's sword clears the dust, and Wei Rong leads the guests." Husband, when you are subdued by the Quartet, you will make immortal achievements! ”

Tang Shi didn't understand why the old man suddenly sighed, but these words were matched with the old man's appearance, which was quite a heroic twilight.

However, whether he is a hero or not has nothing to do with Tang Shi, he is just curious about what will happen next.

After the old man sighed, he turned his head to look at Tang Shi, and said with a smile: "Do you want to go up and have a look?" ”

Tang Shi nodded noncommittally, and the old man laughed when he saw this, taking the lead. Although he walked with a limp, the old man walked steadily, and every step was very steady.

On the second floor, there is a desk. There were several volumes on the table. The old man limped to the desk with a cane, flipped through the scrolls on the table at will, and suddenly smiled.

Seeing this, Tang Shi came up curiously, and the old man was holding a three-character scripture in his hand. The page depicts a turtle. The reason why the old man laughed was because he saw the turtle.

The old man turned a few pages and put down the three-character scripture. Using a cane to pull the books on the table twice, the old man said excitedly, "Let's go." ”

After speaking, he ignored Tang Shi and continued to walk upstairs. Tang Shi looked at the old man's back and felt confused. I turned around and looked at the books on the table, most of them were classics for young children, which was really nothing unusual.

Walking up to the third floor, there are a lot of things on this floor, but the placement is clear. There are bookshelves in the corners, and there are many classics neatly placed on the shelves. On the other side of the room, there is also a shelf. On this shelf are knives, forks, swords, halberds, axes, hooks, guns and other weapons.

This time, the old man did not touch anything, but just stopped and watched, and after a long time, without saying a word, he continued to walk upstairs.

Coming to the fourth floor, there was only one desk in the huge space, and there was a pair of armor and a gold seal on the case.

The old man looked at the armor and gold seal, and said slowly: "Before Wanglong Mountain, His Majesty gave me gold armor and gold seals, and then look back on my hundred years of body. I am the only soldier left. ”

"Didn't go back to see?" Tang Shi said.

The old man shook his head and said, "Everyone is dead, what else is there to see." ”

Tang Shi smiled and said, "I've heard a saying that veterans don't die, they just wither. ”

The old man turned around abruptly, looked at Tang Shi with burning eyes, and suddenly laughed: "Hahaha, what a veteran doesn't die, just wither!" Hahaha~"

The laughter was so thick that I couldn't hear the voice of an old man at all, "Let's go, take you to the last floor." ”

Tang Shi was stunned when he heard this, "The last layer? ”

He clearly remembered that the tower had six floors, so why did the old man say it was the last one?

The old man smiled and explained, "For you, the fifth floor is the last floor. ”

After that, he didn't explain, and went upstairs again. Tang Shi pouted indifferently and followed behind.

On the fifth floor, there was only a square table near the window, on which was placed a pot of wine and two wine glasses.

The old man walked to one of the sides of Fang Ji, knelt down, turned his head to Tang Shi and said, "Please." ”

Tang Shi was also not polite, and sat down cross-legged with the big horse golden knife. I picked up the flask and shook it, there was only half a bottle in the flask, and when I opened the cap, a smell of fragrant wine came to my nose. Tang Shi is not good at drinking, but this wine is not liquor, but has a hint of fragrance.

Wu Zi poured a cup, Tang Shi was about to taste it, the old man said, "Self-pouring and drinking is not a gentleman's style. ”

Tang Shi grinned and said, "I'm not a gentleman, just a monkey. ”

After that, he didn't wait for the old man to say anything, he picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp. The wine entered the throat, and there was a hint of bitterness in the coldness. After swallowing it, there is a touch of sweetness in the aftertaste.

"What kind of wine is this?" Tang Shi put down his wine glass and asked with a smile.

The old man smiled, did not answer, and after pouring himself a drink, he said, "Original brew, no name." ”

Tang Shi smashed his mouth and said, "It's a pity that such a good wine doesn't have a name." ”

The old man looked at him and said with a smile: "In that case, why don't you make one?" ”

"Okay." Tang Shi didn't shirk either, rolled his eyes, and said, "Monkey wine." ”

The old man laughed when he heard this, "What the hell is a monkey." ”

Tang Shi grinned and did not argue. The laughter is non-stop, and the wine cup is non-stop. In the blink of an eye, half a bottle of wine was drunk by the two of them.
