When they entered the foggy world, it was still dusk, Zhang Lu and the others ran all the way, looking for traces of people everywhere, and when night completely fell, they finally discovered a small town. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info then Zhang Lu looked at the town, and felt a little dumbfounded.

Most of the houses in the town are made of earth and stone, which is very different from the Chinese style that is accustomed to using wood as pillars and using less stone. After the four of them entered the town, they occasionally saw pedestrians hurrying through the narrow streets, mostly dressed in cotton, skin, or wool, and there was no linen or silk to be seen. As for the style of clothes, that's not to mention - it's completely European medieval style!

Although they were also curious about the architecture, clothing and customs of this foggy world, they were too shallow in the end, but they were not as shocked as Zhang Lu - if they were not carefully studied, they would not feel that European medieval clothing was more unacceptable than Chinese clothing of different eras. They were stunned for a long time at a guy with red hair, and Tang Liyu couldn't help but ask: "Did I see it wrong? Or is it the reflection of the street lamp? That person's hair turned out to be red......

Zhang Lu pouted: "Is red hair strange? I expect that there are human beings in this world, and there are brown hair and even blonde hair......" I looked up and saw a wooden sign, a beer bottle was painted on it, and the door of the room under the wooden sign was wide open, and I could hear the noise of people in the house, I guess it must be a wine shop or inn, so I stretched out my hand and pointed: "Go in and sit down, and inquire about the news." ”

The restaurant is not large, and is poorly furnished, with five square tables. As soon as the four of them entered the door, the voices stopped, and the diners all raised their heads with surprised expressions on their faces - it must have been Zhang Lu's clothes and dresses that surprised each other.

However, if you want to compare the clothes of the two sides, in fact, the biggest difference is not in the style, but in the quality. There are only six diners in the store, divided into three tables, the clothes are not tattered, but they are also extremely old, and there are many dirts on their faces and hands. Soon, the diners took their eyes off the four of them and continued their conversations, but their voices were much lower than they had just been.

The four of them picked an empty table and sat down, and a fat woman wearing a short-sleeved and long skirt with thick pink arms showing her pink arms greeted her, and asked delicately, "A few nobles are dressed differently from the locals, are they from afar......?"

Zhang Lu nodded: "Far away......"

"There's good wine in the shop, as well as braised pork and bean soup, what do you want?"

Zhang Luxin said that if it is really the European medieval world, it is better not to have any hope for its cooking level - "just have a few glasses of wine." ”

The woman squirmed away, and the wind turned her head slightly, and glanced at the diners out of the corner of her eye—"There really is one who looks like he is blonde...... What a strange world!"

Zhang Lu asked casually: "How peculiar?"

"Anyway, it's better than the world we've been...... The place is all peculiar. ”

Zhang Lu frowned slightly, suddenly remembered something, and immediately asked in a low voice: "The first time we formed a team, we went to Juntian World, the second time we also went to Juntian, the third time Xufan, and the time we went to Furui was a reward, so it can't be counted...... The Fourth Pure Xuan World, the Fifth Zen Good World ......"

Tang Liyu nodded: "That's right, this is the sixth time we've carried out the mission of the Xuanqi Realm together." ”

"Before that, I had only been on one mission to the Suyan World," Zhang Lu asked, "What about you?"

"What a coincidence," Feng said with a smile, "My first mission was also to the Suyan World, and the second and third were to the Jade Mirror World—I met Yan Chao and Miss Tang on the second Jade Mirror trip, and then we went to the Juntian World together." It was also the second trip to Juntian, and I began to accompany Zhang Lu. ”

Tang Liyu said: "The first time Li Yan and I crossed through the Yuyu world, the second jade mirror world, and the Feng brother we met ......"

Zhang Lu nodded, and said in his heart that before the four-person team, I had only crossed once, Feng Heran had four times, and Li and Tang were both three...... Sure enough, Lao Tzu skipped a grade and inserted into the advanced class.

"Tell me about those I haven't experienced, what is the Jade Mirror World and Yuyu World?"

Before the companions could reply, they saw the fat woman grasp two tin wine bottles nearly a foot high in each hand, twist and twist again, and then slammed the four bottles of wine on the table, and with a "bang", it seemed that the whole room was shaking, and the dust on the beams "fell". Tang Liyu couldn't help frowning, the surrounding drinkers seemed to be accustomed to it, and they didn't stop eating and drinking and talking at all.

Zhang Lu picked up a full bottle of wine, looked down, and saw a thin layer of foam on the brown liquor, and at the same time, a wheat aroma came to his nose - oops, it's really beer, Lao Tzu must have not drunk it for nearly a hundred years.

Immediately it was filled with a mouthful, and then, with a "poof", it spit back into the bottle...... It's sour and astringent, and the degree is quite high, but it doesn't have the refreshing and slightly bitter taste of later beers......

Zhang Lu couldn't bear it, let alone those people, they each took a small sip, and then they all frowned and put down the wine bottle.

Zhang Lu saw that the woman was twisting away, so he repeated the previous question, so Feng Heran and Tang Liyu each roughly described the situation of the two worlds of Yujing and Yuyu. Zhang Lu listened and nodded, and habitually picked up the wine bottle, but only reached the end of his nose and smelled it, and then put it down with a wry smile.

"There's a question," he stretched out his right index finger and tapped lightly on the table, approaching his companions, and asked in a low voice, "I've been wondering, what is the purpose of the Xuanqi Realm to send us to the other world to perform various tasks, and will it do us any good?"

Feng Heran frowned and said, "Such a big topic, is it necessary to discuss it now?"

Zhang Lu said with a smile: "It's not that the Juju Temple is about to be breached, it's not that the wind plans to summon the demon dragon to be angry, and there is no siege by the large army of Jiayu City - the bunker won't run away by itself, if the ancient artifact is taken by others, let's go and grab it back." I think, this mission is rare and not in a hurry, why not rest and talk for a while?"

Feng Heran picked up the wine bottle and raised it towards Zhang Lu: "If there is good wine, I don't object to chatting, it's a pity that it's ......" Then he retracted his smile and said with a straight face: "The name and matter of the Xuanqi world are not seen in the classics, but they are passed down from generation to generation, and those of us who have been photographed seriously are often reluctant to involve this matter in conversations with outsiders, and young people who have not had such an encounter - for example, many of my junior brothers and sisters - are quite keen to talk about it, and of course they have repeatedly guessed the meaning of this crossing......"

Zhang Lu made a "please speak" gesture. Feng said abruptly: "Those absurd statements don't need to be mentioned, such as saying that the heavens and demons take down the mortals of the realm to play games, or bet with mortals...... I think it's more reliable, there are so many guesses......"

"It is said that immortals are made by mortals, so the heavens and demons look at mortals, especially those of us cultivators, not ants, but juniors. It is reasonable for seniors to promote juniors," Speaking of this, Feng Heran couldn't help but smile slightly, "I think, this kind of idea is too naïve." The difference between immortals and mortals is like the sky, the immortals look at us, not when we look at the backward in martial arts, but when we look at the children who are just starting out, if it is not their own children, and they don't worship me as a teacher, who is impatient to discipline him?"

Li Yanchao nodded, and added: "People's hearts are good, but it is precisely because of evil that the word 'good' can be said." The people who ascended to the immortal in the records of the past dynasties were all strong, not saints, and once they became immortals, they did not do all kinds of evil, and their hearts were full of love for mortals? I would rather believe that immortals act wisely than believe that they are all friendly. ”

Feng said abruptly: "Yes, there is also a risk in traveling through the experience, and people will die, even if we raise the juniors, who would dare to put them in such a dangerous place?" Probably thinking of the former companions who died in the process of crossing the other world, he couldn't help but sigh lightly, and then said: "There is also a saying that the heavens and demons set up the Xuanqi Realm to train the juniors, just to guide people to ascend and increase the number of immortals. If you don't have good skills, or if you don't have good luck and die halfway, the immortals won't come to pity you......"

It seems that Li Yanchao has discussed similar issues with Feng Heran before, so there are a lot of rare words today, and he interjects from time to time: "Just like my family, or their sect, recruiting inner disciples, will inevitably be selected by thousands of people, if there is no high Bing Ran, even if you give a thousand gold treasures, you will not want to enter the door." It's just that...... We are anxious to cultivate talents, instead of waiting for good materials to come to our door, because the life expectancy is limited, whether the immortals can really live with the heavens and the earth, or even immortal, no one knows, but their lifespan must be longer than that of mortals, so why don't they sit back and wait for mortals to ascend, instead of spending their minds on testing?"

Feng said abruptly: "Yes, if immortals can't live long, who is willing to cultivate ascetic immortals? Even if there is no heaven and demon guidance, don't mortals cultivate immortals? Why do you need to come up with this set of Xuanqi Realm? Unless you ......?"

Tang Liyu asked, "Unless what?"

"Unless what the Wenyi Mountain of the Qing Xuan World said in the past is right, the immortals and the demon dragon are fighting each other, and this war has not yet ended, so the immortals are eager to expand their own strength, so they will set up the Xuanqi Realm to temper mortals, in order to ascend to the immortal as soon as possible. ”

"The phantom of the Void Brahma World, the demon dragon of the Qingxuan World is ......," Tang Liyu muttered, "We haven't met the so-called living dragon who descended to the mortal world to copy the back path of the immortals. If the war is not over, even the immortals do not have an absolute advantage...... I wonder if we'll meet this time?"

Zhang Lu pouted: "What do you meet, living dragon? Don't be stupid, the enemy of immortals, how can we mortals be able to resist it?" It is estimated that there is only one word 'death' when encountered!" Zhang Lu couldn't be clearer about the gap between three-dimensional creatures and super-three-dimensional creatures. Even if he had only only ascended from the Pocket Earth World in the past, he was a new immortal, that is, the lowest-level super three-dimensional creature, with no limit on his level, and full firepower, he was very likely to beat Tang Ying. Dragons should also be super three-dimensional creatures, even if a living dragon that is only equal to or slightly weaker than the full body Zhang Lu comes out, it is not something that their four-person team would dare to face head-on.

Feng Heran knocked on the table and pulled the topic back: "What I just said is 'cultivating talents', and I recently have a new idea, that is, 'selecting talents'." Maybe you have to go through the experience of the Xuanqi Realm and pass the tests of heaven and demon before you can truly ascend to the immortal realm......

Tang Liyu frowned: "Many of the immortal climbers in ancient books have not passed through......"

"Maybe they're hiding deep enough, maybe the rules aren't strict," Feng explained heran, "I originally thought that I didn't need the help of immortals, as long as I cultivated to the highest realm, I would be able to break through the realm and soar, but I thought that the Wenyi Mountain in the Qingxuan World had survived the thunder tribulation, but it was still stranded in the mortal world." Is it possible that without the permission of the immortals, you will not be able to ascend to the immortals? And the crossing of the Xuanqi Realm is not to test our skills and exercises, but to test our mental nature, to see if we are qualified enough to be with the immortals in the future?"

His statement was quite novel, and everyone couldn't help but bow their heads and groan. After a long while, Zhang Lu broke the silence again: "Is there just a few guesses?"

Feng said with a smile: "There is also the most common saying: Heaven and demons want to save mortals difficult, but it is inconvenient to take the initiative to intervene, so they have to take the help of strong people from the other world - saying that immortals care about the life and death of mortals, I don't think it is old and reliable...... But considering that the mortal world is the nest of immortals, if the nest is copied by others, or destroyed by itself, it will inevitably affect the prosperity of immortals, so it is not surprising that they occasionally take care of it. Especially if the demon dragon wants to disturb the mortal world, the immortals will definitely not sit idly by......"

Li Yanchao said: "However, our experience in the Void World doesn't seem to make sense. The monsters are clearly the minions of the demon dragon, vainly trying to exterminate the human race, the Juju Temple is besieged, and it has reached the last dangerous juncture, why do the immortals refuse to take action, but want to send us there?"

Tang Liyu retorted: "That's because the Tianzhu Demon Dragon is just a phantom, and after the monster knows the truth, it will naturally have low morale, and it will be forced to withdraw its troops from the Ju Temple......"

Li Yanchao shook his head lightly: "If the four of us hadn't gotten there, maybe before the image of the demon dragon appeared, the demon soldiers would have already entered the Juju Temple through the hidden stream...... Between life and death, can the immortals really be so accurate? I always feel that the immortals don't care very much about whether the human race in a certain world is extinct or not......

Zhang Lu said yes, no matter what inconvenience they have, even if the laws of heaven and earth stipulate that they can only pass through from the mortal world, and they can't interfere more-"In the Void World that day, if the mad demon took a few people such as Tang seniors to go to the uninhabited realm, maybe he could directly bombard and kill the three major demon kings and dozens of demon generals, which could completely reverse the war situation between humans and demons-if you care about mortals, why only send us little characters?"

Feng looked at Zhang Lu impressively: "You suddenly remembered to talk about this matter today, should you have any special thoughts, right? Don't just listen to our nonsense, you can also talk about your own guesses......" (To be continued.) )
