Chapter 180: Taishan Mansion
"It seems that not only Huaguo, but also the whole world is not very peaceful, is it the [secret realm] abroad that is doing things?" Zhao Xu's eyes flickered, he needed to speed up his pace, and he couldn't let go of every opportunity to improve himself.
According to Granny Yu, many "secret realms" have existed since ancient times, and Zhao Xu believes that the "world catastrophe" mentioned by Ji Yun's master is not necessarily caused by these unknown "secret realms" - these places that mortals can never spy on and perceive, and even some may not be in the same dimension as the mortal world, and countless years of peace and quiet should have reached some kind of relatively stable balance.
If the future threats really come from various secret realms, then the first thing that needs to be vigilant is not actually these specific secret realms, but the existence that can break the balance between the secret realm and the mortal world!
"I need time, give me a little more time, and I'll visit them one by one. Zhao Xu decided in his heart, "The world I have seen is too narrow, and I need a higher vision." ”
............
At midnight, Zhao Xu took Du Qiang and came to the open space in the east of the city, which was the place where he met the alien Cortana, and it was also the place where everything began.
Feeling out the pebble from the ghost clam, Zhao Xu glanced at his watch, which was exactly 0:00.
Bowing to the east, the pebbles in his hand began to emit a light blue brilliance, and after only waiting for a moment, there was a burst of rosin wafting, and Zhao Xu saw a long lantern similar to that used by the ancients, and the lantern was printed with a black word "Yue".
This lantern was not carried by anyone, nor was anyone holding it, but it floated slowly like a Kong Ming lantern.
"Keep up. Zhao Xu said and followed the lantern.
In the following time, Zhao Xu polished his eyes, carefully observing the changes in the surrounding environment while walking, after passing through a meadow, he felt that his feet were empty, and when he looked down, he found himself standing on a cloud like cotton wool, this cloud was in the shape of a small boat, and when he looked up again, he found that this was no longer the eastern suburb of Longcang City - surrounded by a pale white river, the whole person felt like he was boating in the Milky Way.
"Mr. Zhao, look!" Du Qiang suddenly pointed to the front right and said to Zhao Xu.
Zhao Xu turned his head and found that in the extreme distance in front of him, there were more than a dozen "cloud boats" that were exactly the same as those under his feet, drifting.
It seems that it should be the same as him, going to Taishan Mansion to "catch the market".
Zhao Xu was still sighing, and he felt that the cloud boat under his feet shook, and then the "Milky Way" below churned, and a huge golden building ship, like a submarine, floated out of the "Milky Way"!
"Fuck you, uncle!" Zhao Xu burst into foul language, how to describe this feeling?
It's like a poor person walking in a raincoat and riding a bicycle in the rain on a rainy day, and suddenly a luxury car passes by and splashes all the sewage in the puddle on you.
Compared with the golden building ship, the cloud boat where Zhao Xu and Du Qiang were located looked extremely shabby.
Not only is the volume large, the eight-story building, but also the speed is fast, and the kung fu in the blink of an eye is far beyond Zhao Xu.
From afar, Zhao Xu could still see that the boat on the building was brightly lit, and there seemed to be a drama singing a little song in the building.
The ghost clam is right, the city of Taishan Mansion is indeed a place where many people in the secret realm trade, where there is trading, there is a gap between the rich and the poor, just like the bazaar of ordinary people, there are local tyrants, there are poor people.
Judging from this "means of transportation", Zhao Xu is in the category of "poor man".
He was really curious about what was interesting about the "Milky Way" underwater, but unfortunately his cloud boat had no diving function.
After drifting for about 5 minutes, Zhao Xu heard the sound of "boom", it turned out that the front was the end of the "Milky Way", and the huge roar was actually from the waterfall pouring down in front of him.
No wonder the little white boats and big gold boats disappeared after a while, and they were actually flowing down the waterfall.
"The flying stream went straight down to 3,000 feet, and it is suspected that the Milky Way fell for nine days. ”
The spirit and magnificence of this poem may only be appreciated by really following the waterfall from a high place.
Zhao Xu and Du Qiang fell down the waterfall.
............
The cloud boat was like a flat boat in the sea, staggering with Zhao Xu and Du Qiang, and burrowed into the huge whirlpool under the waterfall.
After a stormy sea, everything was calm.
The cloud boat broke out of the fog and landed.
Zhao Xu jumped onto the shore, knowing that he stepped on the ground, and on the empty plain in front of him, a huge city appeared, which was too majestic, and it was really as tall as a mountain.
Zhao Xu walked forward for a while, and saw that on the city tower with a strong classical taste of China, there were three big characters written in the three official books of "Taishan Mansion".
At the gate of the city, a few guys in soap robes and ridiculous hats like turtle prime ministers on their heads stood there, seemingly from the security check, or rather, the city fee.
Then, Zhao Xu saw a few palanquin bearers carrying a gold-topped sedan chair, quickly entering through the side door of the city gate, and was not intercepted in any way.
Zhao Xu wanted to rush in directly, but this was not his territory, so it was better to keep a low profile, so he had to line up behind others.
He could see that most of the people around him were not spirits, but each person's body was covered with a layer of flowing "mosaics", and they couldn't see each other clearly.
Zhao Xu looked at himself through Du Qiang's perspective, well, there are also mosaics, and you can only see the outline of human beings.
"It's so high-end, it's so meticulous, no wonder they all regard this place as an exchange...... Zhao Xu secretly praised in his heart, this place is really professional enough, and before he entered the city, he began to protect the privacy of customers.
The people in front of them all took out the pebbles in their hands, swiped them like a credit card machine, and pressed them into the groove of a large stone at the door in front of them.
When it was Zhao Xu's turn, he also pressed his pebbles into it.
The big stone lit up, but instead of green, it was red.
Seeing this, the two poor people dressed as "turtle prime ministers" walked over, looked Zhao Xu up and down a few times, and then said: "One hundred yuan to enter the city, no money to enter." ”
glanced at Du Qiang behind Zhao Xu again, and the eyes of the two lit up: "The first-class ghost seedlings, dedicated to the prince, can get 20,000 yuan, how about allowing you to get started?"
Maybe the eyes of these two people were too obscene, Du Qiang only felt that his whole spirit body was cold:
Zhao ...... Mr. Zhao, don't sell me!"
