Chapter 20: The Nightmare Begins

Call~

Lin Juepan sat on the bed, exhaled a long breath of turbid air from his mouth, and his complexion gradually returned to ruddy. The star power in his body was gone. This internal injury was healed after a whole month.

There was still some gain in this battle, and he felt that the star power that filled his limbs was more dense and pure, but it was still very early to break through the boundary.

After a long time, Lin Jue transported the star power overflowing in his body back to the Firmament Seal and woke up from his meditation. As soon as he opened his eyes, he held his cheeks and sighed gloomily. It took more than three months to break through the second grade, and I don't know how long it will take to wait.

Squeak~ squeak

The old wooden door then opened, and Zhang Qingbai walked in thoughtfully, dragging his steps and not knowing what he was thinking.

"Why are you willing to come back so early today?" said Lin Jue.

During Lin Jue's injury, Senior Brother Youwei happened to have to retreat for some time. can only take care of him alone, in order to prevent the two of them from starving to death. Zhang Qingbai actually made a very rare living for Lin Jue, and did sparring with the disciples of the Yunzi Academy in the martial arts training field, to be precise, as the sparring partner of the twenty-four female disciples. was busy begging for a beating all day long, and it was the first time that Lin Jue had seen someone doing sparring so actively, and he was so happy to be beaten.

These days, Zhang Qingqing will not come back with a blue nose and swollen face in the middle of the night, and today somehow, as soon as the sun set, he put away his stall and came back.

Zhang Qingbai lay on the promising bed, stared back at the roof, and after a long while, he asked suspiciously, "Do you think this Heavenly Dao Courtyard is weird?"

"What's so strange, what's wrong with you today?" Lin Jue said curiously.

Zhang Qingbai sat up abruptly, and said with a serious face: "This Heavenly Dao Academy is second to none in Sky City, how can there be only a dozen or so division commanders who have taught their professions. We've been here for half a year, except in this dilapidated house, which is a martial arts training ground, or a mountain. Why don't you let us enter such a big realm behind the Nameless Palace?"

"Maybe it's not time, don't think about it. Lin said disapprerovingly. With his understanding of Zhang Qingqing, what kind of crooked thoughts did this kid have.

Zhang Qingbai saw that Lin Jue didn't care much, his eyes turned, and he sat down next to Lin Jue's bed and whispered: "Don't pretend, don't you kid, aren't you curious about what is in the Nameless Palace, and what is the corner of the spire of the back mountain? ”

This time it was really said by Zhang Qingqing, Lin Jue had long been curious about where those senior brothers were cultivating? Every time he asked about Youwei, he was hesitant, including this cultivation, and he refused to reveal half a sentence. Although he was curious in his heart, he still said indifferently on his face: "What you want to do is straightforward, don't beat around the bush." ”

Seeing Lin Jue's mouth, Zhang Qingbai suddenly looked happy, "I want to go to the Nameless Hall to have a look." Didn't Twilight ask you to go there to get the exercises when you reached the third rank a few days ago? I thought that it must be the place where the Heavenly Dao Academy collects exercises, and if I can find one or two copies of them, wouldn't it be ......," Zhang Qingbai said more and more, and his face was full of speculation.

"I'm afraid that's not good. "Lin Jue is a difficult state.

The moon hangs in the sky and the night is cold. Two black shadows quickly passed through the central school yard and headed straight for the Nameless Hall.

Squeak ~ roll

The heavy door of the temple made a clattering sound, and the two of them pushed open a crack in the door and dodged in, then gently closed the door of the temple. The hall hadn't been opened for a long time, and the cold and humid air was filled with a faint smell of dust. It was so dark that I couldn't see anything. Zhang Qingbai groped around on his body, and after a while, he took out a bright pearl. This pearlescent light can be seen clearly within the scope of the three feet of the body.

"That's not right...... Zhang Qingbai muttered to himself, and then walked into the hall a little, and then exclaimed, "Why is this hall empty?"

Lin Jue was also at a loss. The inside of this hall is not at all what they expected, the exercises are full of books, and the history on the left and right is clearly layered. From the outside, the nameless hall is magnificent, and it is in the middle of the Heavenly Dao Courtyard, so it will never be vacant, but how to explain the fact that it is empty.

Zhang Qingbai did not believe in evil, and continued to walk inside with the pearl. Walking and walking:

"There must be a mystery in a hall like this, maybe there is a secret door mechanism somewhere. I'm looking for it two by one, and I don't believe I can't find a copy of the exercises!"

In this huge empty hall, the two groped along the wall inch by inch, not letting go of a single gap. An hour has passed, and the eyes of the eyes are full of Venus.

"Ahem! It's all for nothing all night!" Zhang Qingbai shook his sour arm and said indignantly: "This Heavenly Dao Courtyard is really a strange thing, why do you let such a big hall be empty! ”

"I guess those things knew you were coming tonight, and they all ran on their own legs. Lin Jue joked. He wasn't very disappointed, he came in just because he was curious, and it didn't matter if he gained it or not.

It's just that the Nameless Hall is an empty hall, so why did Twilight let herself come here to find exercises?

"It's almost dawn and it's troublesome to be discovered. Lin Jue dragged the unwilling Zhang Qingbai towards the palace gate.

"Two stupid boys. Suddenly there was a small grunt in the hall.

"Who!" Lin Jue looked back and suddenly shouted. Immediately raised his vigilance, and searched the temple with sharp eyes.

"Hey, don't scare me. There's nothing here, and there's no place for Tibet. Zhang Qingbai was so frightened by this shout that he trembled. Although he was complaining, the star power was already working. After getting along for such a long time, the tacit understanding between the two has reached the level of comprehension, and Xu can read each other's meaning with a single look.

"Haha, 'God and man are useless, and saints are nameless'. For so many years, the only people who dared to come to this nameless hall uninvited were the two of you. In the dark, the man no longer hid it, and laughed wildly.

"I don't know that there is a division commander resting here, and the two of us are disturbed a lot, so I will leave. Lin Jue shook his hands, and then with a clean look, the two hurriedly walked towards the palace gate.

"The old man has always liked the difficulties of strong people, if you want to go, I won't let you go. Secretly, the man smirked.

Hearing footsteps from the depths of the palace, Lin Jue hurriedly looked back but was pitch black and couldn't see his figure.

Swish!

A black shadow passed through the halo of the pearl with lightning speed and directly blocked the front of the two, blocking the palace door to death.

Lin Jue looked forward in amazement, only to see a sloppy old man with a cloak of hair, holding the wine jar with both hands, and walked over step by step. Before he got close, the rush of wine mixed with a sour smell came to his nose. The smoked two had tears in their eyes.

"The old man lives alone in this hall... Cold... It's very clear, it just so happens that the two of you stay with you...... Accompany...... Stay with me. The man muttered incoherently, as if he was drunk but not drunk, and every two steps he took raised his head and poured a mouthful of wine from the jar.

Lin Jue raised his eyes and took a closer look, the old man's clothes were tattered and dirty, and his gray hair was sticky together. The idle beggars in Sky City can't compare to him.

He took a step closer, and Lin Jue and Zhang Qingbai were forced to take a step back. He went further, the two took another step back, he went further, and the two of them wanted to retreat.

"What? are you two disgusting the old man?" the old man was a little angry. Glancing at the two intruders in front of him, he suddenly stiffened. In a flash, he instantly stood in front of Lin Jue, raised his hand to brush away the hair that was stained on his eyelids, and looked at Lin Jue carefully from top to bottom, his eyes were almost on him. While watching, he sniffed with his nose, and after a long time, the face covered with oil and sweat finally showed an ecstatic look.

If you just look at the old man's gray hair, he feels much older than Mu Qing. But if you look at his face, you feel younger than Youwei. Although his face is dirty, he can't hide the delicate facial features and the proud heroism between his eyebrows. A hundred-year-old body, a twenty-year-old face, how can this old man be so weird!

Lin would never dare to act rashly, for fear of angering this crazy old man. I could only endure the disgusting smell, squeeze out a proper and appropriate smile, and said respectfully: "The two of us didn't mean to disturb the seniors, and I ask the seniors to forgive us magnanimously this time." ”

The old man kept the ecstatic smile on his face, stared at Lin Jue without blinking, raised his hand and took a sip of wine. Eat and laugh and said: "I won't let you go before, because I was entrusted by someone to be loyal to someone." Now that I smell the familiar blood in you, it is impossible to let you go, and you kid will die of this heart. ”

Lin Jue's heart sank, I was afraid that I would meet a difficult madman today, and he was saying something inexplicably incomprehensible.

"I also think what my predecessor said makes sense!" Zhang Qingbai walked over with crystal tears hanging from the corners of his eyes, which were smoked out just now. When he got closer, he pretended to wipe away his tears, and then his voice choked up:

"The seniors are old, and it is indeed lonely to live alone in this empty hall, so it is reasonable for our two juniors to stay as companions. It's just that the younger generation has an 80-year-old frail mother in the family, and there are babbling brothers and sisters who need to be taken care of. Can the seniors let me go back first, take care of them at home, and then come to do my filial piety for the seniors. ”

Lin Jue sighed sadly. He is the only one who can say that betraying his friends for glory is so tear-jerking.

The old man only smiled dumbly, "I wanted to let you go before, but I didn't expect your kid story to be so wonderful, so let's stay with my old man." ”

With that, the old man stomped on the ground. The two of them felt that the entire hall was shaking. Before he could stand still, he felt the air under his feet, and he fell straight down. After only a few feet of land, the two of them stepped on the ground again. When I opened my eyes, the lights in my field of vision were brilliant, and everything I saw was the same as the palace above, but there were many bright halls.

"This is also the Nameless Palace?" Zhang Qingbai wondered.

"This is the real nameless hall", the old man said lightly: "Nearly eighty percent of the Heavenly Dao Courtyard is built underground, and all of them are connected throughout. The palace towers you see above are nothing more than ornaments. You two will spend the next three years underground. ”

"I promised that little girl to sharpen you well, but since your teachers and commanders are ruthless, I have to be this wicked man himself. ”

"Little girl, is it Dusk Master? It turns out that she thought I would come here. ”

Lin Jue suddenly realized that Twilight suddenly mentioned the Nameless Hall that day, it seemed that it was intentional, and she calculated that she and Zhang Qingqing would throw themselves into the net. It's just that Twilight is ruthless enough to torture people, so won't this old man destroy people's hearts?

The old man's face showed an inexplicable meaning, staring at Lin Jue's eyes, and said extremely solemnly: "The old man has no other skills, and there are thousands of ways to torture people. Especially you, kid, I won't show mercy to my subordinates. For the next three years, I will make life worse than death. It will even make you want to kill me!Remember the words 'nameless old man', it will be a nightmare that will wake you up every night. ”

Lin Jue and Zhang Qing were stunned in place, their faces were colorless, this unfathomable old man was uncertain, and he didn't know what kind of disaster awaited him.

"Boom ......" The empty palace echoed with the mad devil's laughter for a long time.
