Chapter 169: Beiqing Palace
With the painful creak of the rusty iron locks, the flat boat carrying the servants slowly flew high in the mist-shrouded sky. Lu Lie looked down, but the clouds and mist below here changed from before, and it was actually composed of countless dense black sticky objects, which kept tumbling and reorganizing violently. As the three of them passed over the black ocean, a slight grunt could be heard below.
There are even whispers in it.
It's like a curse on an evil spirit.
Lu Lie was terrified, and for a while, he seemed to have returned to the palace of the gods.
It's just that the road to Beiqing Palace is really boring, and the two gray-clothed people with Lu Lie are like two Buddha statues, just sitting quietly on Lu Lie's left and right, don't talk, after getting on the boat, he didn't let go of a fart. There was no sound along the way except the rusty sound of boats rowing.
Lu Lie couldn't bear such loneliness at first, and he was the most flamboyant and could speak. I thought in my heart: It's better to talk to the two nerds, and at the same time have a good relationship, and at the same time, I also feel the bottom of this Beiqing Palace and the patriarch. Now that he had made up his mind, he immediately greeted a man in gray: "Oh, big brother, I said, the weather is really cool today......
But before he could finish his sentence, the gray-clothed man's bare eyes on the mask coldly swept his whole body. His eyes were shiveringly cold, and after being swept away, it looked like a knife. Lu Lie shuddered, and what he was about to say next was speechless.
"If you don't want to talk, you don't chat. Why are you staring at people, cannibalism?" Lu Lie said to his fingers.
"Hey, hey, hey. These two brothers belong to the law enforcement team of the Beiqing Palace, and I am afraid that there are more people killed by them than you have seen since this kid was born. With your little bit of nonsense, you kid also want to get words out of people's mouths. The skeletal old man sitting firmly on the bow of the boat rowed the boat like a strange man, while saying to Lu Lie, who was at the stern of the boat.
Lu Lie was still unconvinced. I thought to myself: What is the big deal about pulling two long faces like donkeys. That king of killers, cannibal, knows that he has killed more people than you, and I still don't talk and laugh with him.
Seeing that this rowing old man was quite talkative, Lu Lie simply talked to him: "Senior, where are you sending me? I heard that it is a place called Beiqing Palace? Why didn't you arrive after paddling for so long?"
The old man laughed again, and when he opened his grin, his already white and bony face was even more hateful and terrifying. The old man closed his eyes and recalled, "Beiqing Palace, it's really a good place...... Three hundred years ago, if there was no Beiqing Palace, there would not be the country on the tree that we have now. It can be said that it is the grand plan written by Yu Beiqing Palace, which has created the most magical existence in our giant tree world, so that human beings can also live on the giant tree world...... However, if one day the country on the tree is destroyed because of this, it must be because of the Beiqing Palace. ”
Above the railing, a sea of black clouds was set off in the foam. Faint voices of resentment were whispering, "Adventurer, do you want eternal life?" and "Come down, come down and party with us." "It's the most wonderful place in the world, why, why are there still people who stay on it?" ......
Lu Liehan's hair stood up: Aren't these just another copy of the original suspension bridge of the Enchanted Palace?
The old man stopped moving. Lu Lie thought that he still had something to say, but he didn't think about it, so he just kept silent. Lu Lie had no choice but to take care of himself and continue to speak: "Old man, what is the difference between what you said and what you didn't say? What kind of place is this Beiqing Palace? Can you not be so pretentious." ”
With a bang, the flying boat hit something in the Black Sea and stopped. The old man opened his eyes lazily: "It's here, get off the boat." ”
At the end of the Black Sea, a huge palace appeared suspended in the air. When Lu Lie got closer, the belly wings of the palace were tied with thick iron locks, firmly fixing it with the bronze wall on his back, so as not to fall into the abyss. And on the huge palace, there are three big characters engraved, "Beiqing Palace".
Under the leadership of the two gray-clothed messengers, Lu Lie was about to enter the Beiqing Palace. Suddenly, the old skeleton man who was still in the bow of the boat coughed violently: "Ahem, ahem...... Young man, do you know what is hidden under this sea of black clouds that we flew over just now?"
Lu Lie was stunned for a moment, and half-turned around. Before he could speak, the old man with the skeleton said to himself, "It's Huangquan...... This giant tree is connected to the kingdom of God in the sky at one end and the Yellow Spring in the ground at the other...... It's not just that anyone who falls from a tree can enter the blissful Yellow Springs world. And the center of the country of trees, the Beiqing Palace, is a palace built on the entrance of the Yellow Spring Kingdom. ”
The figure of the old man drifted away with the ship, and soon disappeared into the undercurrent of the Black Sea. For a long time, I could hear the rust floating like grinding teeth.
Looking at the direction in which the old man disappeared, Lu Lie was thoughtful.
Under the leadership of the two gray-clothed envoys, Lu Lie stepped into the entrance of the Beiqing Palace.
The candles on both sides floated faintly in the wind, and the steps were covered with a thick layer of dust, and when you stepped on it, the gray smoke was stirring, as if no one had walked on the steps for a long time. Along the steps, the three of them kept walking towards the depths of the Beiqing Palace, and Lu Lie didn't see half of the figure along the way, but the place where they passed aroused a squeaky sound, and the figures of countless small animals quickly shuttled between the pillar halls.
What the hell is this place?
Just when Lu Lie was about to lose patience, finally, at the entrance of a side hall, he saw a figure. It was a young man dressed in a fiery red coat, with an incomparably long scimitar hanging from his waist, hidden in a box, but could not hide the sharp brilliance. The young man heard footsteps and turned his head as well. With his chin raised, he looked at Lu Lie and his party who came over with condescending eyes.
It was a handsome face, but it was so strange that it made people feel disgusted.
The young man glanced Lu Lie up and down a few times, and said coldly, "This is the guy that the patriarch wants?"
"Yes. ”
"This is that Lu Lie?"
"Yes. ”
The young man slightly opened a gap to the side, revealing the door of the black hole behind him: "Go in." The patriarch and the elders have been waiting for you for a long time. ”
