Chapter 412: The Ghost Gate Closes
Looking at the backs of the two of them hooking their shoulders, Xiao Rensan frowned, and said to the returnee: "Old immortal, you said that Liu Xi would not be deceived by this Sun Xiaochuan, right?" He has been the king of Huainan for twenty or thirty years, and that Sun Xiaochuan has been a liar all his life......"
"Did you meet Liu Xi on the first day? Or have you ever seen anyone lie to him? After smiling strangely, he turned back to Wu Mian and said, "As long as you play with Liu Xi for a year, you will have ten gold cakes to take." It's not that the old man is pretending to be polite, and my old man wants to do such a good thing. But do you really have that much money? ”
"It's enough for them to eat for one or two hundred years," Wu Mian replied, then looked back at the bedroom where he had lived for a few years, and finally continued: "These two people are together, and they won't be able to look down on those ten gold cakes in a few years." Maybe one day when the few of us are gone, we still need the two of them to help. ”
"Both of them? Uncle Xiao, didn't our grandchildren talk about you, you didn't have a brainy joke, right? Bai Wuqiu on the side couldn't help but open his mouth and continued: "Look at the one called Sun Xiaochuan, is there anything reliable from head to toe?" Liu Xi bought it for him, and maybe he had to help him count the money. ”
"Silly son, if you knew what Liu Xi did before he was ten years old, he would just say that." After saying that he would not return, he smiled at Wu Mian and continued: "No matter how you say it, it can be regarded as finding a home for Xiao Liu Xi, and you don't have to worry about anything in the past few years, you can finally wait quietly for the ghost door to open......
After the rebellion of Liu Xi, the king of Huainan, was put down, Emperor Wu abolished the country and changed it to a county, and changed Huainan to Jiujiang County. Finally, the foundation of the two generations of Huainan kings for decades was all included in the territory of the Han court, and then the county guard of Jiujiang County issued an edict to abolish the law of conscription in the original Huainan Kingdom. In this way, the people who had fled into the mountains and forests returned to their homes one after another.
After a few more years, as Liu Xi expected, Emperor Wu began to use troops against the Xiongnu. After several unsuccessful dispatches, Emperor Wu worshiped Weiqing and Huo Qubing as generals to turn the tide of the war, and the Han army smashed the Xiongnu royal court. Although the Han army won a great victory, the battlefield sergeants suffered too much attrition. The imperial court was conscripting troops in the entire Han territory, and in the blink of an eye, the entire Han territory became the scene of the last few years of the Huainan Kingdom.
On the already empty Wangtian Mountain, the displaced people began to slowly gather again. It's just that this time without the worship of King Huainan, even if Wu Mian and Gui Hui are not able to help. Fortunately, the original wasteland has been reclaimed, and after enduring the first year, the rest of the days are slowly getting better.
Jiujiang County had sent officers and soldiers to drive away the displaced people several times, but each time these officers and soldiers arrived at the foot of the mountain. Either they encountered hordes of hungry ghosts blocking the way, or they were rushing down like monsters all over the mountains and fields. After several times, no officers and soldiers dared to go up the mountain to drive away the displaced people. It's just the same as the original Huainan period, and a checkpoint was added at the foot of Wangtian Mountain.
In this way, under the protection of Wu Mian and these people, the displaced people on the mountain barely had a place to live. It's just that as the day of the opening of the ghost gate is getting closer and closer, I don't know how long their peace of mind will last.
A few years have passed in the blink of an eye, and it is finally time for the ghost gate to open. As the rhythm of breathing like the lungs became more and more frequent, finally one day with a loud bang, a deep pit appeared in the center of the Ghost Gate Pass. There was a long black gas coming out from inside, and Xiao Rensan followed Wu Mian and came out to check. After smelling the breath of black gas, he fainted to the ground, and was carried away by Wu Mian away from the black gas before he came to his senses.
Not only Xiao Rensan, but also the trees near the black hole withered and died in an instant. It seems that the black gas in this is fatal to plants and plants, although the black gas slowly dissipates after half an hour. However, Wu Mian and Gui didn't dare to let Xiao Rensan take any more risks, so he and Qiu Li, who was covered with scars all over his body, stayed in the grass house to watch the house, and they didn't need to be involved in the next thing.
Wu Mian and the others were ready to go down a few months ago, Wu Mian and Bai Wuqiu were fine, but there was a bit of trouble if the spell completely disappeared and could not return. There is no need to go down deliberately if you can't return to your current state, it is enough to let Wu Mian and Bai Wuqiu go down. However, the map left by Xu Fu is involved in the cave, and it is very likely that there is a treasure hidden in it that unlocks the seal of return. At the moment, this old guy said that he had to go down and take a look.
For the sake of his 'biological father', he stole more than 100 zhang hemp rope from the military camp under the mountain in advance. After the black qi dissipated, Wu Mian and Bai Wuqiu jumped down one after the other. Then the cheap son who could not return climbed up along the mouth of the cave again, and after finding out the height, he tied it to the old fellow with a hemp rope, and then let him down little by little along the mouth of the cave.
After going down, with the little light above my head, I saw that this was a huge underground cavern. Everything around me was as black as ink, and there were bones of unknown animals under my feet. The bones were scattered all over the place, and it was impossible to tell what they were due to the severity of the damage.
After the father and son turned around, Bai Wuqiu said to his 'biological father': "Old fellow, this seems to be the lair of some kind of demon beast. Why don't you go up and say something that shouldn't have been said by our son, if you really die here in a while, I don't need to go to the wild seed Baijiang you left behind to come and burn paper for you? That's not right, old guy, why do you have a surname Gui, and Baijiang and I have a surname of Bai? ”
"My silly son, what occasion is it right for you to ask this?" He took the initiative to climb onto Bai Wuqiu's back, sighed, and continued: "Just say it once, don't bother your father and me with this in the future." Both of you have your mother's surname, and the demon clan has your mother's surname-Wu Mian, is that you? ”
Halfway through the words, the eyes of the father and son of the father and son of No Return and Bai Wuqiu bloomed at the same time. They saw a figure flash in front of them, and after hearing the shout of no return, the figure looked back, but it was too far away from no return and no return. Neither father nor son could see the appearance of the figure clearly, but looking at the figure, it seemed that it was Wu Mian who jumped down first.
Seeing that the figure did not stop and wait for their meaning, the temper of Hundred Wants, came up, and chased after the figure with no return. However, the figure seemed to be deliberately luring their father and son to catch up, and always kept a distance of about seven or eight zhang from Bai Wuqiu, and even if the monster's feet accelerated, they couldn't catch up with the figure.
After seeing the figure of Wu Mian, he felt that there was something wrong with whether he returned or not. However, his son's strength came up, and no matter how the old guy on his back persuaded him, he had no intention of stopping. Fortunately, although the hole is big, it can't withstand them chasing me, and after running out for hundreds of feet, a wall in front of it blocks the way of the figure.
"Uncle Xiao! What did you do to be sorry for my dad? Or what are you running? After seeing that there was a dead end ahead, Bai Wuqiu also put down. Then it slowly approached the figure with its back on its back, and it continued as it walked: "Is it that if you find any treasure, you have to swallow it alone?" You are an elder, we juniors shouldn't talk too much about this matter......"
"Just keep your mouth shut after not saying much......" Before Bai Wuqiu could finish speaking, a familiar voice sounded behind him. Then a hand grabbed Bai Wuqiu's arm behind him, and then the signature tone sounded again: "Open your eyes and see where you are now." ”
It was Wu Mian who had come down in advance and had no trace of him, and when he spoke, he felt a thrill all over his body, and then the scene in front of him suddenly changed dramatically. I saw it standing in front of a huge black flower with no return on its back, this flower was two or three feet high, and the flower had been opened to several of them, waiting for Bai Wuqiu to carry the return step by step into the stamen.
