Chapter Fifty-Eight: Hiding from the Sky and Crossing the Sea

"This place, is the interior of the Divine Tower. ”

Ning Xiaolou said leisurely.

Xu Xian gasped, subconsciously took a step back, and began to look around, but it was pitch black here, and he couldn't see his five fingers, except for the faces of Hong Xuanwu and Ning Xiaolou who could be seen by the lamplight.

His first reaction was suspicion, but Ning Xiaolou's tone didn't seem to be joking at all, looking at the firm and serious eyes of the two, Xu Xian slowly believed it.

"What the hell is going on?"

Rao is arrogance is as big as him, and his voice trembled slightly at this time.

"I'll tell you. Hong Xuanwu said in his deep voice.

"At the beginning, I didn't have any good ideas at all, and I didn't know how to investigate, and this matter was too dangerous, although Master Wanli asked Xiao Lou to do it, but Xiao Lou was still the deputy bishop after all, and I was already a person who betrayed the temple, so it was best for me to do it. ”

"At the beginning, I went to investigate by myself, but I could only go around a few places where important items were stored in the temple, and I didn't find anything substantial, and I was discovered by the temple and encountered Senior Sister Han Ziyun's ......"

"Ah, you're talking about that old witch!" Xu Xian blurted out: "She's the Grand Instructor of the Temple!

"Yes. ”

Hong Xuanwu said bitterly: "Although I have learned Master Wanli's Taijiquan, I can already fight with Senior Sister Han, but at most I can only fight five or five, and I hid my identity at the time, I didn't dare to let go of my hand, I could only escape, and then the temple increased its patrol and review in the city, and I couldn't even get out of the door for a while." ”

Xu Xian thought thoughtfully: "I remembered, it should be the time when the master was engaged in the sacrifice, right? I thought it was to make the sacrifice go smoothly, but I didn't think about it so much, and it was you who tossed it out for a long time." ”

"Hmm. Hong Xuanwu said: "So, I finally asked Xiaolou for help." ”

Ning Xiaolou took over and said, "The advice I gave to Brother Hong at that time was to join the Polymath Society. ”

"Erudite Society!" Xu Xian's eyes lit up.

Hong Xuanwu nodded and said: "The Polymath Society is an idle organization on the surface, but in fact, a group of powerful people are manipulating, they collect intelligence and all kinds of rare items, in order to consolidate their position, I have the strength, I used to be the bishop of the temple, as soon as I proposed to join the Erudida Society, I was immediately welcomed." ”

"At that time, I was received by the giant of the Polymath Society on the side of the Southern Continent, Ning Feng. ”

"Huh?"

Xu Xian was stunned and looked at Ning Xiaolou.

"Don't look at me like that, my dad is polymath, and I'm not. Ning Xiaolou shrugged.

Xu Xian closed his mouth and stopped talking, these messy things, he, a minor who has been practicing martial arts since he was a child and didn't pay attention to things outside the window, really doesn't know anything.

Hong Xuanwu continued: "In the Polymath Society, there are also a lot of power struggles, Ning Shibo in order to get me to stand on his side, agreed to my request to consult the important classics of the Erudition Society, and in the next two days, I consulted the classics about the Martial God Temple in the Erudida Society, and indeed found some things that were absolutely not seen in the temple. ”

"One of the legends that aroused my interest was that on the Daxia Mountain in the north of Zhendong City, I climbed to the highest place, and waited for noon to come, and I could see the divine light of the divine pagoda looming in the sun. ”

"In fact, this legend, those of us who joined the Martial God Temple since childhood have more or less heard of it, and I also climbed the Great Summer Mountain when I was young, but in fact, it was just a good vision to see the Divine Tower, there was nothing special about it, and I didn't see any so-called divine light. ”

Xu Xian nodded: "Yes, I also crawled when I was a child." ”

"However, I found a different way of interpreting it in that book. ”

Hong Xuanwu said: "In that book, it is said that the reason why there is such a legend is because the Divine Tower itself can cultivate. ”

“!!!”

Xu Xian was taken aback, but then he felt ...... Seems like a matter of course?

The Divine Tower is a weapon of the Martial God, and it seems that there is nothing strange about it if you can cultivate yourself?

Hong Xuanwu continued to explain: "The book says that the Divine Tower is a dead thing, unable to absorb divine power from heaven and earth, but the worship of believers can bring power to it, noon is the time when our martial artists are the most vigorous, and it is also the best time, the person who wrote the legend at that time may just happen to come to the top of Daxia Mountain with an excellent view at a certain time, and happen to meet a large number of martial artists who are vigorous and vigorous that day worshipping the Divine Tower, so that the divine light on the Divine Tower has a circulation." ”

"Is it like this?"

Xu Xian muttered: "Let's not say whether this statement is correct, what does this have to do with us being able to enter the inside of the Divine Tower?"

"Listen to me. ”

Hong Xuanwu said: "The writer wrote that the reason why he had this speculation was because he himself had personally entered the pagoda and felt the power that flowed from within the pagoda when the crowds worshipped. ”

Xu Xian's eyes lit up: "So, he also wrote in the book, how did he get in?"

"Nope. Hong Xuanwu shook his head.

Ning Xiaolou said with a smile: "If there was such a thing written in the book, it is estimated that the people in the temple would have already finished exploring the inside of the divine tower." ”

"Yes. Xu Xian frowned: "Then, what clues did you find?"

"That's right. Hong Xuanwu said: "The person who wrote the book is not a big person, but a snitch, and that book is not a book of mystery research, but an autobiography written in his old age." ”

In the book, he writes that he was captured by the Martial God Temple immediately after leaving the Divine Tower, and then locked up in the dungeon for more than ten years...... This incident made me wonder. ”

"Let's not talk about how he got in, the main question is...... How did he get out? He was arrested immediately when he went out, why didn't the people in the Martial God Temple know that he could enter the tower?"

"Although I have an average brain, but after thinking about it, I still think of the biggest possibility, that is, the place where this snitch enters and exits the Divine Tower may not be at all an entrance to the temple as we thought!"

"I later spent a few days investigating the situation of this snitch at that time, and found that he was arrested because he sneaked into a long-abandoned courtyard not far from the city, which has long been uninhabited, but it is often guarded by temple soldiers, and he thinks there must be some treasure hidden there, so he sneaked in......"

"A deserted courtyard guarded by soldiers outside the city?"

Xu Xian knocked his head: "Isn't that the former residence of His Majesty the Pope!"

"yes. Ning Xiaolou said with a smile: "That snitch shouldn't be from the Southern Continent, he didn't know about it at all, and he didn't step on it well, so he broke into it so-so, but he didn't expect to enter the Divine Tower from there." Later, after he came out of the divine tower again, he also went to the courtyard, because he was in a trance and in a poor mental state, and he couldn't hide his figure, so he was arrested. ”

After he was arrested, he did not say anything about it, and it was not written into his autobiography until he was old. But this description is vague, and his identity is not very good, so no one takes it seriously. ”

Hong Xuanwu nodded and said, "However, I thought that this matter was likely to be true, so I began to sneak into that courtyard to look for clues." ”

"It is true that the mansion has not been inhabited for a long time, although the temple has been guarded, but it is only out of respect for the former old Pope, His Majesty, if there is anything important in the mansion, it has long been moved. But even so, I discovered the problem when I infiltrated the house for the third time. ”

"In the study, there is a piece of ground, no dust. ”

Xu Xian frowned: "No dust?"

"Yes. Hong Xuanwu said: "There has been no one living there for too long, and the temple is only cleaned once a month, and all the places are covered with a layer of dust, but there is no dust on the one-meter-square ground." ”

"What does this mean?" Xu Xian didn't react.

"I'll tell you the conclusion. Ning Xiaolou said with a smile: "There, there is a hidden magic circle, which will be activated by itself every once in a while, and this magic circle has a ...... It's teleportation. ”

Xu Xian gasped, his eyes widened wider than the copper bell: "Teleportation array?!Is there really a teleportation array in this world?!"

"The fact that you're here is the best proof of that. ”

Ning Xiaolou said: "As for why there is such a teleportation array in His Majesty the Old Pope's old mansion, why no one knows about it, why it can be activated on its own every once in a while, and what the principle is, we don't know. ”

Hong Xuanwu said: "In short, after I found out that something was wrong, I sat on the ground for more than ten hours, and finally succeeded in being teleported in. ”

"And I, take less time. Ning Xiaolou said with a smile: "I knew that Brother Hong disappeared after reading the book my father gave him, so it took some time to discover the secret of this legend, and then I got the same speculation, and through the dirt on the footprints left by Brother Hong's hiding place, I speculated that he often haunted the old mansion recently, and then one night, I met Brother Hong outside the old mansion." ”

"Wow, Brother Ning, you're amazing!"

Xu Xian praised sincerely, if this kind of thing were to be replaced by him, he might not be able to find out the reason for three or five years.

"But now we can't continue to explore the inside of this tower. ”

Ning Xiaolou said with a solemn expression: "Although the people guarding the mansion have not found us, but Brother Hong and I have been missing for too long, we must have attracted the attention of the Martial God Temple, if nothing else, they will definitely be able to find out where we are in the next few days, so as to find out here." ”

"So, we need you to hide it now. ”

Xu Xian heard that he had something to do, and his eyes lit up: "What to do!"

Hong Xuanwu said in a deep voice: "After I captured you, I must have attracted the attention of the temple, which will speed up the speed at which they can find us." Next, Xiaolou and I will take the initiative to be caught and confess another set of plans, and your role in it is the one who was deceived and threatened by us. ”

"When we are caught, you will take our place and continue to explore the inside of this tower. ”
