[024] Ancient books

Huang Yan was chased by Tu Yu and fled for a while, so let's not talk about it for the time being, but talk about the other side: Feng Chenghuang was hurrying to the Guanxin Palace, and it seemed that there was something important - it was already dark at this time.

He walked straight to the ancient book room in the Contemplation Hall, where there was no human figure, only the luminous lamp made of fluorescent grass was gloomy.

By the light, he walked over to the bookshelf and began to flip through the books.

"Strange Scholars in the Streets", "Crape Myrtle Astrology", "Outline of Wild Sun Stones", ...... The bibliography in the ancient book room is rarely read, so the various bibliographies are not sorted out by category, and the number is huge, Feng Chenghuang didn't find the bibliography he wanted for a while, and he seemed to be a little anxious.

"Guangtu Star Track", "Medicine King Sutra", "Please Ghost Book" ......

"There you go. After tossing and turning for a long time, he secretly said in his heart, picked up a copy of "Hundred Go Books" on the shelf, and began to look through it anxiously.

Feng Chenghuang plays chess all day long, and naturally it is indispensable to read chess games.

However, after a cursory flip through the pages, he found that except for a dozen pages before and after, all the contents in the middle were actually unrelated to the chess game, and he stopped his eyes on one of the pages, and found that what was recorded in it was actually a series of extremely cruel punishments, and on the other side of the page was a picture related to it, the content of which was drawn by a dozen naked men and women, their limbs forcibly tied together, at first glance, like a huge spider web, and between the gaps of their limbs, there were hexagonal pillars with a symbolic painting of a few wisps of smoke, no doubt suggesting that the temperature of the column was extremely high。

What's even more uncomfortable is that the bodies of the men and women in the painting are extremely strangely twisted, and the expressions on their faces are even more painful, and through the picture, it is almost as if you can hear their miserable wails.

“......”

Feng Chenghuang was embarrassed, he didn't expect that he just wanted to find a chess game to study, but he actually found such a cruel and inhumane book, and he was shocked when he held it in his hand.

"What are you doing?" suddenly someone from behind asked.

The sudden sound made Feng Chenghuang's arm tremble, but he immediately realized that the voice was very familiar to him.

"You almost scared me to death, Cheng Die. Feng Chenghuang turned around and said to the person behind him, "It's so late, what are you doing here?"

The person who came was Feng Chenghuang's sister, named Feng Chengdie, and it was also the woman who was sitting behind Huang Cheng in the Guanxin Hall that day.

She smiled quietly and said, "It's not easy to scare you...... At this time of the day, after I finished the work in the accounting room, I would come here to take a look, and who knew that this time I saw you here flipping through the books in the dark. With that, she handed the candle in her hand to Feng Chenghuang.

Feng Chenghuang took the candlelight, shook his head and smiled: "When I was playing chess with Qin Baihu's predecessors this afternoon, I was caught off guard by the tricks he learned from the ancient chess game, and I thought it was nothing, but at night, I suddenly remembered this matter and couldn't put it down." ”

"Did you lose?" asked Cheng Die with a hint of surprise in her tone.

"That's not true," Feng Chenghuang smiled immodestly, "but it's rare to encounter tricks that I find difficult to solve, so I want to come here and find more from the ancient books." With that, he picked up another book, and when he found that it was still not what he wanted, he put it back.

Seeing this, Cheng Die said: "There are a total of 36,101 ancient books here, of which there are only seven chess games, and there is also a book with many pages in the middle that are actually unrelated to chess," Cheng Die paused, and then said: "It is the one you just flipped." ”

Hearing this, Feng Chenghuang gave up the idea of looking for it, and said to Cheng Die: "So it seems that you should have written down the location of the chess game, right?" Halfway through speaking, he picked up the book of "Hundred Go Books" again, and continued, "In other words, the content recorded in this book seems to be quite dark. ”

"Judging from the content of this book, it should have been written by someone who escaped from the prison set up by the Yu Gong clan back then, and what is recorded in it is probably ...... Who?" Feng Chengdie was halfway through his words when he suddenly heard a sound.

The voice came from the back of the antiquarian room.

"Hmph, this 'who' is asked, as if there shouldn't be anyone else in the ancient book room," I saw a person slowly walking out of the gap between the bookshelves in the back, and he continued, "Could it be that the library of this Guanxin Hall only welcomes people from your Feng family?"

Feng Chenghuang saw this person clearly, and his originally relaxed expression suddenly showed a hint of vigilance.

This person's name is Liu Zeshi, and he is a military advisor-style figure in Hei Yuqili, and of course the Feng Chenghuang brothers and sisters will not fail to know him.

Cheng Die opened his mouth and said: "The library and the ancient book room naturally welcome everyone on Fengxian Mountain, but it is just that you are not often seen here, so I think it is a little strange." ”

Liu Zeshi naturally heard the irony in this passage, so he squinted his eyes and smiled: "Hahaha, I have long heard that there is a part of 'cold blood' flowing in your Feng family's body, and sure enough, it is true...... On this Fengxian Mountain, we are also old acquaintances, and the hostility of the two of them towards me has never diminished. ”

"Haha," Feng Chenghuang also smiled and said: "It is precisely because they are old acquaintances that they are like this, if they don't know you well, I'm afraid there will be three points of politeness." ”

"......" Liu Zeshi smiled on his face, but his tone sank, and said to Feng Chenghuang: "I heard that Zen Yulu often looks forward to being able to frustrate your spirit in front of everyone on the March Festival, but before fighting him, if you run into me first, I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to have this opportunity......

After saying that, he slowly walked past the Feng brothers and sisters, turned his back to them and said, "I will not only come to this library today, but I will also come often in the future, I hope that the next time we meet again, you brothers and sisters will not make such a fuss." ”

Yanagisawis left the Temple of Contemplation and said no more.

On the other hand, Huang Yu in the wild area had been chased by Tu Yu to the depths of a jungle that he had never been to before, and Huang Yu was covering himself with a huge tree, but Tu Yu stopped, and seemed to suddenly lose interest in continuing to chase, only to hear him shout:

"Hu Wan, I decided not to hunt you down for the time being, because I thought of a very important question, guess what?"

"Guess the hell. Huang Yan secretly took a sip.

"I'd better tell me, you can't guess it anyway. Tu Yu shouted vigorously alone, "The question that comes to my mind is that since my purpose is to push you into a desperate situation and awaken your 'skill', then I have to kill you seriously, but once I kill you seriously, if I really kill you, then won't I be very boring?"

Huang Yan couldn't help it anymore, as long as Tu Yu said one more word, he was afraid that he would have to fight to the death with him.

I only heard Tu Yu clear his throat and shouted: "So, I will chase you into this 'Devouring Forest', and then let this forest drive you to a corner, if you really die, it can only mean that you are only to this extent." ”

With that, he slammed the halberd in his hand into the ground, and the earth seemed to shake.

"Wake up, we have to have dinner at night today!" Tu Yu shouted.

"Not good. ”

Only then did Huang Yan realize that he had been chased into the trap by Tu Yu, so he immediately exerted his strength on his legs, preparing to escape from this forest, but found that not only his ankle had been entangled by a thick branch, but the branches in all directions were also stretched towards him like octopus tentacles.

Tu Yu was also entangled in the vines in the forest, but he immediately emitted flames on his body, burned all these vines, and said loudly: "Hu Wan, I will also participate in this 'March Festival', if you can survive to that time, let's have a good showdown!"

"Sure enough, people who use flames are not normal. Huang Yan remembered that Li Boiling Fish also seemed to have fun hurting people, so he scolded.

Then he took out the sharp weapon he had found in the pile of skulls, quickly cut off the branches around him, and broke free from them, only to find that the whole forest began to grow wildly, and all the branches began to dance like giant pythons.

“......”

There is no time for Huang Yu to continue to be shocked, this forest is like discovering prey, all kinds of vines and branches are attacking Huang Yu, Huang Ji dodge, while waving the sharp weapon in his hand, he is still secretly sighing: The world is really full of wonders.

However, no matter how dangerous the forest is, as long as you escape, it will be a victory.

With this in mind, he immediately lowered his posture and began to sprint forward.

Although the surrounding trees were quite tough and wound around him extremely fast, Huang Ji had recovered from the state of "overflowing" at this time, and now he could not only use the aura to strengthen the power of sharp weapons, easily cut down branches, but also use his keen sense to dodge the branches that attacked him.

"Good. Huang Yan, who was able to regain the use of Reiki and Jueyuan, was full of confidence in himself, and said in his heart, "That's it, ...... in one breath?"

Suddenly, countless red fruits flew from all directions, and the number was so large that Huang Yan had no way to dodge, so he had to immediately defend the two key parts of his head and heart, and watched as the fruits smashed by himself.

However, these fruits were quite soft in substance, and they didn't cause any major damage when they hit Huang Yan's body, but they only blurred his vision a little.

Just as he was wiping his eyes, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his ankle, and when he looked down, it was the vines in the ground quietly wrapped around his legs, and what was even more infiltrating was that there were teeth on the vines that were gnawing at him.

"Bastard!"

Huang Yan was lucky in his legs, spun violently and jumped up, tearing the vine hard.

As soon as he landed, several branches turned into blades and drew at him, and he immediately leaned down to dodge the attacks.

Seeing that the trees circling around him were getting denser and denser, Huang Yan knew that he must stay away from here as soon as possible, so he used enough strength to jump back and forth between the trees, avoiding the snake-like vines on the ground.

But even in the air, Huang Zheng still saw a large wave of red fruits flying from all directions. This time he jumped on a thick branch, and with a leap upward, he dodged the fruits.

This jump was very hard, and Huang Yan suddenly rushed away from the dense branches and leaves above his head, and then saw the scenery above the forest-

A large flock of red giant birds that he had encountered before were all densely hovering in the air at this moment, as if they were ready to dive down at any moment.
