"Scout!" The third prince ordered, "Lao Tzu is not Sima Yi, let me go in and investigate!" ”

After the Red Fox received the order, he immediately sent five weasel spirits to the city, and a small team of scouts with advanced weapons jumped around behind the obstacles, and soon arrived at the city without a hitch. The city was quiet and slaughtered. None of the dense muzzles in the telescope fired.

The soldiers hurried into the city, but there was still no movement.

Soon, they appeared in the arrow tower, and a dragon flag was planted at the head of the city.

"Into town!" The third prince hurriedly gave orders.

"Slowly," Peng Yue blocked, "Houji's military strength is strong, and the whole army has disappeared without a trace, how dare we rush in." ”

The third prince pushed Peng Yue away, and said anxiously, "Don't you want to find out why." If you can't keep it, you'll lose both sides in a bloody battle! How can you save people if you don't go in! ”

Baozi grabbed the third prince, "Your mood is not right, why are you in a hurry." ”

The third prince said, "Can you not be in a hurry, Houji is my guarantor, if he has three long and two short, I won't be able to go back to heaven." ”

After that, he ordered the army and horses to rush into the city, and did not forget to add three articles: "1. Do not kill people at will, 2. Eliminate immediately when encountering resistance, 3. Do not retreat if you advance." ”

There was a deafening cry from the whole army, this was the last battle, and they saw hope of returning home. The soldiers were in high spirits for a while, grabbed their weapons and rushed towards the gate hole, everywhere there were steel helmets shining with cold light, bayonets everywhere, and everywhere there were hideous faces with excitement, they flowed into the gate like a tide, and spread out into the city.

Still no movement.

When the army entered the city, they saw guns and ammunition, shields and swords, and weapons from various historical periods at a glance. But there was not a single ghost soldier, immortal soldier, or even a wounded soldier. It was as if they had been swept away by a gale, and there was not a single one left.

The sergeants seized the ammunition depot, full of boxes of golden bullets and swarthy and shiny grenades.

They occupied the city, and all the artillery moved in the direction of the Black Cliff.

They seized the treasury and pocketed a large amount of mined ore, smelted steel, and large chunks of gold.

They cheered, they got carried away. The war is over, just as the American army did not think that the liberation of Paris would be successfully recovered, and the Battle of Black Cliff, which has been talked about countless times, ended so silently.

In the joyful crowd, Baozi, Luo Lan, and Peng Yue looked solemn, and walked deeper along the messy city streets under the guidance of several scouts. The tall tower built of skeletons is located in the second half of the ancient city of Black Cliff, it is not as messy as the former city and the city area, all the feet are paved with green bricks, not only there is no debris, but each green brick is well preserved, polished to black and shiny. The tower is majestic and straight, the tired human bones that make up the tower body are faintly visible, and the two deep eye sockets on each skull are gathered in all directions, and they look densely packed from a distance, denser than a honeycomb, like thousands of grumbling souls, sluggish and suppressing the inner waves, quietly watching every intruder.

It's so clean, so clean that there's no trace.

"An avenue connects the front city with the back city, and there is no defense line in between, but there is not the slightest trace of a battle in the back city. It's not normal. Peng Yue pointed to a row of bricks on the masonry floor, "It seems to be divided into two worlds here." ”

Indeed, an invisible dividing line across the stone road clearly distinguishes between the clean and the cluttered worlds. On one side is the chaos after the war, and on the other side is the stone steps of the ancient tower, dark and deep, like the abyss.

"Let's go over and have a look." The bun pretended to be guts, and he raised his legs and was about to walk towards the ancient tower.

Roland grabbed the bun, "Don't, it's too weird." ”

Peng Yue also said: "We seem to have come to a boundary. ”

While the three of them were arguing, the gate of the ancient tower in the distance slowly opened, and through the narrow crack in the door, the tower could be seen brightly lit. A white-haired old man walked out slowly on crutches and walked towards the three people. The light of the dead moon was dim, illuminating only a hazy outline of him.

The old man approached, and Baozi couldn't help but gasp when he looked at it, "Zhu Yan! ”

In 1984, Zhu Yan disappeared after being belittled by the proud bun of the spring breeze and went down to the sinkhole, and for several years, his whereabouts have become a mystery, but now he has strangely appeared in the Black Cliff Ancient Tower, how can it not make people gasp.

Of course, it is not surprising that Baozi once considered what Kong Dechang said, the dead moon in the sky is inhabited by immortals, and they often fly down to meet with the Japanese officers. And the dead moon is Xuanwu Lake, isn't the immortal who flew down old Zhu Yan? He must have flown into the ghost gate from under Xuanwu Lake and did unsightly things with the Japanese officers.

Zhu Yan is much older, but his face is still ruddy. He smiled and saluted the bun, "God, I haven't seen you for five years." ”

Baozi still couldn't hide his surprised expression, "I suspected that you had something to do with the ghost gate, but I didn't expect you to come here to retire." ”

Roland also smiled and said, "Old man, why are you doing this, Baozi didn't dig into you, you don't enjoy the blessings in the sunny Luding Mountain, you go to this hell ghost gate to see the gate, thanks to it." ”

Zhu Yan also smiled, smiling very confidently, he stroked his immortal hair and said, "With the IQ of the two of you, at this moment, you should have guessed who I am." ”

Are you-

Are you-

The Great Wizard of Dongying.

Zhu Yan laughed, "I hear my disciples and grandchildren mention the Great Wizard of Dongying every day, but they haven't seen the true face, right?" ”

"No—it's impossible to ....." Although Zhu Yan readily admitted his identity, and although he had expected it before, Baozi couldn't combine the money-hungry and incompetent old immortal official with the great wizard of Dongying who could travel the Three Realms, understand the past and the present, and foresee everything.

"Boy, if it weren't for the cloak of a corrupt official, I'm sure your wisdom would soon find out who I am. Sometimes, disadvantages are the best protection for people. Zhu Yan smiled and said, "I also want to thank you for belittleing me to go to the sinkhole, I have enough time to return to the ghost gate to operate." Boy, you're still tender. ”

"That Zhu Wu—"

"Zhu Wu is just one of my subordinates, or rather, we are a team, hehe. It's a pity that he is really greedy and has not won your favor and trust, otherwise I would have obtained more information about you. ”

Roland looked Zhu Yan up and down, "You are a famous scholar of the Wei and Jin dynasties more than 2,000 years ago, how can you be a Dongying person?" ”

"Girl, whether you call me Zhu Yan or they call me Dongying Wizard, it's just a name, a commemoration of a historical period. I am neither Chinese nor Japanese, I am an immortal. I don't have the position of the Terrans, only the tasks of the Immortals. My task is to maintain balance. Balance, you know? ”

Peng Yue's hand touched his waist, and he slowly took out his pistol and hid it in his cuffs.

Zhu Yan smiled, and with a wave of his hand, Peng Yue, who was about to attack, was like a dead leaf swept up by the wind, and suddenly spun and flew into the sky, turning into nothing in an instant.

Before Peng Yue could say a word, he was ejected three feet away, fell heavily to the ground, and rolled in pain while holding his waist.

Roland raised his soul gun and pulled the trigger at Zhu Yan, but the blue light wave disappeared without a trace in the moment it passed the demarcation stone. Roland fired three more shots, and the light waves disappeared eerily.

Zhu Yan was not afraid, he smiled and said, "Don't make trouble, we are not one dimension." You are goldfish, and I am a spectator from outside the tank."

Not a dimension! What do you mean?

This sentence made Baozi shiver. In just two steps, there were two worlds of different dimensions. If the ghost gate can still be regarded as a three-dimensional world, then the world beyond two steps will be four-dimensional? Multidimensional? Or a two-dimensional photo? Where space can be infinitely compressed or enlarged? There, two points one meter apart can walk for a lifetime, or two points thousands of miles apart can be reached in an instant?

"Bao Ziqiang, don't think about it, why don't you come and see it in person, the highest-level banquet in the fairy world is being held in the tower, which is the peach banquet passed down by word of mouth among your human beings, all the god-level immortals, including the Three Qing and Five Emperors, are there, and the answers to all your questions are there. I don't think the top leaders hate you people from the grassroots. ”

The answer to the question is there. How tempting this statement is.

Roland looked at Baozi, and Baozi looked back at the sergeants who were grabbing equipment in the distance, and Peng Yue, who fell to the ground and groaned. The soldiers were immersed in joy, and no one paid attention to what was happening on the stone path that led to the ghost tower.

Zhu Yan opened his arms: "Don't you want to know where Houji went?" Don't you want to see your brother Yang Xiuyi? ”

The soft flesh in Baozi's heart was pinched, and he clenched Roland's hand tightly, and hesitantly took a step forward, crossing the dividing line of the world.
