Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Seizure

The old man appeared very suddenly, and happened to appear in the middle of everyone sitting around, for a while it was the sound of the weapon unsheathed and the magic weapon blooming with the glory, Zheng Yuchan hurriedly stopped, Zheng Yan also sat up,

Zheng Yan had talked to them about the existence of the old man before, and after a misunderstanding, everyone finally relaxed, the old man glanced at the magic weapon in the hands of several people and said with a smile, "They are all gifted children, no wonder it will take the initiative to pass you in",

"He?", Zheng Yan asked curiously,

The old man saw that Zheng Yan might have misunderstood, and pointed to the following and explained, "The original setting here was to actively send in those young people with special qi, blood, and soul breath, well, in your words, it is a physique, it can also be a pure physique, or it can be a relatively special development direction, oh, it may not be accurate to tell you before that what you take away must leave what you want, most of the time it is actually a copy",

"Copy?", this time it was Zheng Yuchan who asked, and everyone was obviously full of doubts,

"Yes, it's a copy, the old man's three souls and seven spirits gathered together to recall a lot of the past, this is a place built by the ancient witch clan and the spirit clan to explore the mysteries of living beings, that is, to explore the body and soul of living beings, after the decline of the witch clan, the spirit clan was abandoned here, and then someone found and inherited it, of course, they also have their own purposes, but they have never been able to change the basic setting of the original setting of the dungeon... Well, the mechanism, the word little girl is very good, the mechanism operates the instrument", the old man said,

Zheng Xingye asked curiously, "Do you know where the things that have been copied over the years are placed, and how are they handled?"

The old man looked at Zheng Xingye's eyes with obvious admiration, and said softly, "You may understand that it is a copy of a complete person or a part of a human body or a divine soul, hehe, this kind of secret old man has also heard of it, but I really haven't seen it, there may indeed be, but what is copied here is not a physical object, but... The news, the news of the body or the soul, you may not be able to interpret it even if you see it",

Zheng Yan asked the most critical question, "Senior, who is in control of this place now?

The old man seemed to be a little emotional, shook his head, and then said with a strange expression, "You should all be the children of the Zheng family, right?

Several people were a little strange, whether they came here to hunt for treasure or said... The clan also used to control here?Is it the clan that is in control now?The old man seemed reluctant to mention it, and everyone looked at each other, but Zheng Yan asked aloud, "Can you only take one thing here?" What if you memorize the book on it and don't take it away? There seems to be no way out here,

The old man looked at Zheng Yan a little helplessly, and said with a smile, You young people's thoughts are really lively, as this little girl said, everything here has been spelled, and so are books, the more words you read, the higher the degree of spell transfer to you, unless you are able to memorize the whole book in a short time, well, this is indeed a loophole, if you can't do it, it's better to take the whole book out; according to the previous setting, a voice will appear in the consciousness of everyone who enters here, telling you that you can only take one, if you take more than two spells, it will conflict, so that you will be killed directly or teleported back again or even imprisoned forever, but if you agree to let it copy all of yours you can take a few more things and leave",

After a pause, the old man continued, "As for going out, you only need to activate a small formation on the thing you chose, and if it is activated, it will be consumed."

Everyone looked at Zheng Yan together, only he didn't choose anything, Zheng Yan looked at Zheng Xingye, Zheng Xingye took out a box, and there was a pair of delicate and gorgeous mandarin duck knives lying in the box, "Bring them back",

Zheng Yan remembered that Ying Yue and Xinluo did not have any decent magic weapons and blades, but selfishly never wanted them to be involved in fighting, killing and killing, although Xinluo did this in the Sixth Division of the Zongren Mansion, but when he was old, he could stay by his side forever and no longer have to do those secret things for the Zongren Mansion, except for the two of them Zheng Yan couldn't think of who to take out, the main thing was that other people might really not need it like himself,

"Can't you really get out if you don't choose one? What do you say about the light and shadow on the third floor?",

Facing Zheng Yan's question, the old man thought for a while and muttered, "I really haven't seen anyone leave without taking anything, you said to the third floor, well, in fact, that's okay, but you shouldn't have touched the past and the future, if you do, you will get a ball of light containing the news you are looking for, which is actually equivalent to what you have chosen",

Zheng Yan got up and went up, his mind was full of doubts since he came in, at least to know who is controlling this place now, and it is very difficult to intuitually collect the mysteries of living beings... Very interesting things, just like the ones that the Zongren Mansion and the Sedum Heavenly Prison and the Qiu Si did secretly, but after taking a few steps, Zheng Yan stopped and sat back in his place.

Everyone looked a little puzzled, and the old man asked curiously, "What are you holding onto?"

Zheng Yanzheng pondered, came back to his senses and said softly, "It's not that I stick to anything, I just don't want to be contaminated with inexplicable cause and effect."

The old man thought for a while and nodded, "There is some truth, so let's do it, the old man still knows a way, but you need to kill it, and you also have to pass through the poisonous gas of the dark river boiling underground magma, of course, the most are all kinds of monsters, there are many maybe you have seen it in the fourth layer, it is a strange beast raised by the Wu clan for research back then, but it should have changed in tens of thousands of years",

Zheng Yan got up and began to look for it on the shelf, everyone behind him had different expressions, Zheng Xingye smiled and said, "Why don't I accompany you for a while?"

Zheng Yan didn't talk to him, Zheng Xinglu rubbed his shield and looked like he couldn't put it down, and then asked curiously, "Senior, why can't a few of us get out of the third floor?

The old man thought for a while and shook his head and said, "It shouldn't be, the old man's soul is actually a gatekeeper, and his body is only one of the supports to maintain the operation of the dragon gate above, maybe it is because the spell runes of this dungeon have been damaged for too long, and the last few batches of people who have controlled the understanding of this place are getting less and less, so naturally it is not enough to talk about comprehensive repair and maintenance, maybe it won't be long before this place will be completely buried."

Zheng Yuchan suddenly asked, "Senior, is the Dragon Gate built by the Dragon Clan or the Wu Clan?"

After being suppressed for many years and lonely for many years, he could basically only survive in the illusion, and the old man in front of everyone seemed to be willing to say more, so he sat in the position where Zheng Yan was sitting before him and began to tell the story, "I also heard my grandfather once say that when the Wu clan began to decline, they began to explore the mysteries of the world's creatures in order to turn the situation around, so they built a lot of places similar to this underground palace on the edge of Middle-earth, well, it was called ' at that time. You may have heard some legends that the reason why the witch clan declined was because they only had two kinds of inheritance of witchcraft, oral and celestial, which came from their reverence for heaven and earth, and in the end, in fact, some wizards also realized this problem, so they created some similar logos on the basis of the runes, but the inherent concept of this created logo was considered to be a blasphemy of the gods of heaven and earth, so the witch clan was divided, and those wizards who insisted on the inheritance of words controlled part of the previously built castle towers, and began to record witchcraft with the words they created, and also continued to collect runes and legends, and kept them in the castle tower to solve the inheritance problem, and certainly did not abandon the original purpose",

Everyone listened quietly, Zheng Yan stood not far away and stopped looking for magic weapons, the appearance of the Wu clan to the peak and then to the decline has always been an endless mystery, whether they existed in the ancient period before the Middle Five Dynasties or even longer, or overlapped with the Middle Five Dynasties, no one can say clearly, this is mainly because they did not leave a clear written record, even if it is like the old man said that some were left, the current people should not be able to understand it at all, there have been many records of the present world of the Book of Heaven in the past two or three thousand years, and this Book of Heaven may have witchcraft left by the Wu Clanใ€‚

"I'm not afraid of your jokes when I say it, the strength of the Wu clan back then is by no means what people say now is moving mountains and reclaiming the sea and boiling the sea to split the sky, in fact, the top powerhouses among them are even more powerful than this, the dragon clan phoenix and some other so-called gods that people now are just beasts in the eyes of wizards, well, they may only be more advanced than mortals, and they can also eat and kill if they want to eat."

Hearing this, everyone's jaws almost dropped, the old man smiled helplessly and continued, "This dragon gate is also one of their measures to solve the problem of the sharp decline in the number of dragons, well, it's like raising domestic animals, or it can be regarded as an attempt to explore the direction of the development of living beings, so it's not an attempt by the dragon clan to solve its own decline as you speculated, little girl."

Zheng Yuchan was completely speechless, Zheng Yan was okay, he had seen the murals of the ancestors capturing Xuanwu before.

"The predecessor just said that he was only in charge of guarding the door, then there should be other guards here, otherwise the degree of decay must be worse than now, even if time is tampered with, uh, at least it needs to maintain a balance, and there are so many magic weapons and the books on it, obviously a large part of them are the products of the last thousand years, why are those inheritors willing to collect so many good things and put them here?", Zheng Xinglu finally put down his beloved shield, but his eyes were full of confusion,

If it is said that the books and magic weapons on each layer of the tower are collected by the people who inherited them here, of course, this can also be said, but these people are definitely not simple, there are so many priceless things that are not used in the world but placed here, I believe that no one can figure it out, there are many things here that can cause a lot of sensation if you pick out one and throw it into the world, not to mention the cheats, although Zheng Yan has not opened it, but just by looking at the title of the book, he saw a lot of high-level secret methods that only exist in the Great Interior.

The old man also began to think about this problem, Zheng Yan, who was standing not far away, saw in his eyes that it might be that the old man had been immersed in the illusion for too long, and his soul had just healed, and it was normal for him to flip a little for a while, so he began to continue to choose things, and those wizards who built this place were simply forced to buy and sell, and if they didn't buy his things, they wouldn't let people go.

On a small black stone platform half a person three feet square, Zheng Yan saw the two knives that he had casually thrown away before, but he remembered that he didn't throw them in this direction at that time! Did any of them let them go? It seems that no one did it, right?

This stone platform seems to be a little special, thinking that Zheng Yan walked over, raised his hand and rubbed it to feel a little warm, only then did he notice that the stone platform was not black but crimson, as if it had been soaked in blood for many years, well, I remember that I saw such a stone platform when I was taken by Jingfeng to the torture room of the prison of the Ministry of Punishment, and I was deeply impressed.

Zheng Yan couldn't help but feel a little hairy on end, and then leaned down and sniffed it again, there was indeed a precipitated bloody gas! Could this be a beheading platform?! Thinking about it, he went to get the two knives on the stone platform, I remember that the old man in the torture room said that the knife should not be easily put on the beheading table, otherwise it will breed a fierce aura, and maybe in the end it will give birth to bloodthirsty wisdom,

However, just when Zheng Yan just grabbed the two knives, something changed suddenly, and for a moment it was a strange feeling, and then he was in a blood-red space.

How many times is this?Three times, or four times?Zheng Yan only felt helpless, and he was completely powerless to teleport this underground palace, as if he was in the range of vitality that a ground-level master could control.

The blood-colored space is a bit like the golden space on his chest, there is nothing but color, and he can't feel time, and even the space feels very blurry, if it weren't for the two knives in his hand, it would be very suspicious if this is space.

Zheng Yan casually walked a few steps, and as expected, he didn't find anything, could this be the place where the old-timers said that they would permanently imprison people? Did the old-timers notice that this person was suddenly teleported away from his neighborhood? Can he pull himself out? Or did he always know! Alas, I don't know the origin of his name, the Yin Yang Dragon, could it be that there are two opposite sides of the temperament?

The more he thought about it, the more uneasy he became, Zheng Yan sighed, and then remembered the teleportation formation on the knife again, and tried to find it but found nothing, just now it seems that he didn't pay attention to listening to the old-timer explain the trigger method, okay, just blame yourself for not carering.

Just when Zheng Yan was thinking wildly, suddenly the blood began to tremble, and then converged like a tide, and finally converged into a high platform with dragon and phoenix pattern steps, on the high platform were placed five thick and gorgeous chairs, dragon chair, phoenix chair, vermilion chair, python chair, and a chair with a pair of slightly closed black wings, except for the dragon chair and the phoenix chair, the other three seats had a figure in a black robe, which seemed to have some kind of old and distant atmosphere, Zheng Yan inexplicably thought of the scene of seeing the dragon soul for the first time in the hall above.

"It's a good fit",

A majestic and indifferent voice sounded, Zheng Yan followed the voice, and noticed that it was the figure sitting on the black winged seat,

"Yes",

"Yes",

The other two also spoke,

Zheng Yan was still a little puzzled, why do you want me to sit in your chair? This is not good, at least you have to explain the ins and outs.

Just when Zheng Yan was entertaining himself, suddenly the figure who spoke first stood up, just a simple action, as if carrying the entire sky, Zheng Yan felt a tremor in his heart that had never been seen before, it was a trembling from the soul, and even trembling, strong, peerless strong, really want to escape!

Zheng Yan was full of lamentation, but his body couldn't move at all, and then he slowly rose uncontrollably and flew towards the high platform, buying and selling! Wait, are these three mysterious people the current controllers of this underground palace?

"Three seniors, what do you need juniors to do?",

No one answered,

"I'm not welcome to mess around like this again!",

Still no one answered,

Zheng Yan now knows that he is suffering, he tried to gather qi as soon as he was controlled just now, but the meridian qi sea seemed to be empty, and it was difficult to concentrate his spirit, obviously it was the man's means, so he flew straight to the dragon chair and sat down, still unable to move a bit, seeing that person came over, a miserable white and handsome young face, but his eyes were extremely discordant vicissitudes, no, more cold and indifferent, as if this young body was just a shell.

Zheng Yan suddenly realized something, and at this time, out of the corner of his eye, he happened to see an old demon-like phantom rising from the dragon chair, and he was also looking at himself indifferently like the person in front of him, did he really want to take it?

The strange man in front of the dragon chair stretched out his white and slender fingers, and then slowly pointed at Zheng Yan's eyebrows, just a simple point, as if a heavy hammer hit the door of the brain and soul, which reminded Zheng Yan of the scene when he was a child because of his hippie smile during sparring and was hit in the head by Gao Heng with a punch, which is unforgettable!

With a tremor of his soul, Zheng Yan suddenly found himself sitting on the dragon chair, and the next moment he was suddenly entangled by seven gold threads and quickly pulled back, not pulling back the body, but pulling in the New Year's money, it's over, the New Year's money is going to run away with his own spirit! Zheng Yan didn't want to give up this body, so he calmed down and then saw the old figure who was eyeing him before in the darkness,

"You move fast, you want to occupy other people's bodies!",

Zheng Yan grabbed the seven golden threads and wrapped the ghost that entered his body in front of him, and then chanted "go", and the next moment the two appeared together in the golden space,

Dugu Takihun, who was sitting there in a daze, was first overjoyed when he saw the sudden appearance of Zheng Yan, but he was in a trance, and his joy had quickly sank and turned calm, and then he was full of surprise, Zheng Yan didn't notice her strange change in expression and just shouted, "Help beat him, this guy wants to rob my body",

Dugu Takihyun did not hesitate and grabbed this strange soul directly with a claw, Zheng Yan finally freed his hand and began to urge the power of the New Year's money space, only to see a golden lock with barbs wrapped around the enemy, at first this guy could still fly the chains, but in the end the power became weaker and weaker, Zheng Yan caught the last Dugu Takihyun who was finally beaten and waved all the chains pierced or tightly wrapped around the guy in front of him who made his heart frightened.

Seeing that the enemy had no strength to fight back, Zheng Yan held Dugu Takihyun for a long time and did not let go, the battle just now was really a near-death feeling, and for some reason he had no confidence at all.

"Let Me Go",

A light voice came from his arms, and Zheng Yan hurriedly retreated,

"Who is this man?",

Zheng Yan, who was still a little embarrassed, slapped his head and shouted, "Wait for me to come back", and disappeared in the blink of an eye, leaving only an inexplicable woman at a loss.

Returning to his body again, Zheng Yan looked at the sickly "young man" in front of him and said with a smile, "Let's talk about it, otherwise I can make that soul fly away with a single thought."
