Chapter 90 If you don't enter the tiger's den, you can get the tiger
Yuan Yang was not too surprised, although he only had a battle with Shen Jian at the beginning, he could clearly see that he was a person who would not let himself suffer.
She looked at Zi Qingqing, he was as silent as ever, and he didn't say hello for a long time, but just lowered his head and silently fed Zixiao, the natal spirit envoy.
Thinking of the things in her dream, she asked seemingly casually: "Lonely Lan Tower, can you still go in now?"
Lao Du took out a scoop made of a gourd, put Abi who was still sleeping in it, and intimately covered a small quilt, which made Yuan Yang sneer.
He scratched his head a little embarrassed, but he always remembered that when he left Xiandan Island, he saw the tortoise grandmother who was riddled with holes in the air for the last time, and blew up Jin Dan's body into a huge city wall, blocking the footsteps of Lan Gu chasing. Maybe Abi also saw it, she has been sleeping and not waking up, but she doesn't want to face it, and she once recognized the thief as her sister.
"I've inquired, and the damage last time was not serious, but the periphery of the first and second floors was destroyed. But it's also strange to say, this tower was originally not open to our students, I remember that only the selected people are eligible to enter the trial, but this morning the elders issued a notice, five days later, the Lonely Lan Pagoda will be reopened, everyone can enter as long as they register, I also want to invite you to go together, this is a good opportunity for the trial, if there is really a time circle in it as the legend, then it should not be difficult to cultivate to the spirit summoning realm before the reincarnation selection. ”
Yuan Yang was silent, his mind turned quickly, I am afraid that there is something wrong with this matter. The elders will treat this tower treasure like an eyeball, and they will not hesitate to deal with the dragon king's favorite concubine for it, and they will also get Shi Jia out of power, which shows its importance. Now that she suddenly broke thousands of years of tradition and let students go to the trial, she was always unsure.
It was already night to send Lao Du and Zi Qingqing away, her courtyard was the highest, and when she looked down, she could see that many of the male disciples of Rushan Courtyard were still gathered on the practice ground. The political turmoil has little impact on them, and the most important thing in their minds now is to cultivate hard and strive to be a blockbuster in the reincarnation test.
Yuan Yang turned around and went back to the courtyard, his eyes fell on the two empty rooms that had been closed for a long time, and he thought about it and walked over. It is common for people who cultivate the soul not to come back for a few years or even more than ten years, and the higher the realm, the more so, as long as the soul lamp is not extinguished, people will be fine.
She was originally on a whim, but she didn't expect it to be wrong. Through the crack in the door, she could clearly see that there was a travel bag on the bed inside, and there were a few clothes spread on it next to it.
Walking down the steps, she turned and walked to another room, which was not very well lit, and she squinted for a long time, but saw nothing.
"Don't look, they're all in the Silent Tower. ”
Yuan Yang's heart jumped, and he turned around slowly, as calm as if he was just taking a walk.
Tieshi held a box, looked at her with a complicated expression, and sighed at the end: "Let's talk about it when we enter the house." ”
"You heard everything we said that night, didn't you?"
Yuan Yang naturally knew what he was referring to, so he no longer hid it, "That's right, so to be honest, I've always been careful here, I always feel that there is an undercurrent surging in the academy, which is very dangerous." ”
The Iron Master pushed the box over, his face ashamed, "You're right, you shouldn't have come, this is a fire pit." ”
"Thousands of years ago, the Sea Clan was not the three tribes that it is today, at that time, there were large clans living in the east, west, north and south, and each was the king. Although the masters of the Ice Dragon Clan were on a par with other major clans, the number of their spirit masters was increasing year by year, and they were gradually becoming prominent in the battle. ”
War inevitably kills people, and the heirs are also an important factor in the strength of a race, although they are not the top masters, but the number of victories can have the effect of crushing in large-scale battles, and the old saying that two fists are hard to defeat four hands is not unreasonable.
"But who would have thought that the so-called divine bloodline of the Ice Dragon Clan is just a big lie, they worship the so-called ancient gods in the Silent Lan Tower, and then continue to sacrifice young spirit masters to it, thus creating the Dragon Clan's secret elixir. ”
The fragmented pieces of the puzzle in my mind slowly came together, revealing the bloody and cruel truth. This holy place, which was worshiped and longed for by countless creatures in the sea realm, turned out to be a place of death full of traps.
She frowned slightly, her fingers unconsciously rubbing against a jade slip. "The elders have something to do with this, right?"
Tie Shi didn't seem surprised to see her, and couldn't help but look sideways again, this disciple was more calm than he imagined, and if he experienced more, I am afraid he would be out of reach.
"Because it is impossible for the Ice Dragon Clan to make a seamless effort to continuously replenish the spirit master sacrifices, they have reached an agreement with the other two clans, as long as they remain silent, and give them one percent of the elixir each year, the Council of Elders will be composed of people from the three clans, and they will be responsible for guiding the chosen ones to the Silent Lan Tower. ”
"Selected?" Lao Du said that the academy had fully opened the Lonely Pagoda. ”
"That's because someone broke the seal of the Silent Lan Pagoda before, which caused the ancient god to suffer a lot of blows, and I think it needs a lot of spiritual energy to heal. Prior to this, it was originally a seven-year call-up, known as the Seven Calls. The students in the academy don't know the details, and they don't know where the rumors come from, saying that if they are selected, they will get a great opportunity, so they all follow the so-called principle of confidentiality and refuse to let people know. ”
Yuan Yang understood the key to this after a little thought, the elders would really rack their brains and spend a lot of effort to get people to die. Of course, this rumor was deliberately released by them in order to confuse the public. Psychic is a high-risk profession, and it is normal to die in the process of going on a mission, and if you don't know who is chosen, you only need to find a random reason to prevaricate the death of these students after that.
"I'm ashamed that as a guru, I can't make this truth public. Twelve years ago, I accidentally learned about this incident, and since then I have been completely disappointed in this place, and I no longer have the face to face the students, so I can only privately check the news of Qizhao in the hope of saving the students. And this time, they actually opened the entire Lonely Pagoda to the outside world, which is completely inhumane, and I will never let their plan succeed. ”
"So what are you going to do? Go to the Council of Elders to protest or destroy the Silent Pagoda again? Obviously, it is in the interests of the people above to do so, and if you stand up at this time, not only will no one believe you, but you will also be killed. ”
Thinking of Lin Yi, Yuan Yang had an idea in his heart, "The elders will make wishful thinking, and in the end, they don't know who will be fulfilled, since they have opened the door, why don't we enter the tiger's den, maybe there will be an unexpected gain." ”
