Soon came the date agreed with Zhao Ying. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The two said that they would meet in the woods outside the west gate of Zhaowu City, and Su Qi arrived a little early, only to find that Zhao Ying and a few people were already waiting.
There are a total of four people around Zhao Ying, three men and one woman. Seeing that Su was up, Zhao Ying smiled slightly: "Young Master Su came early." ”
Su nodded and began to look at the four people beside Zhao Ying.
Zhao Ying smiled slightly: "Everyone, this is the last person we have to wait for, Su Qi, that is, Wen Xinjun's grandson, I believe you have already heard of it." ”
"Heh, the first disciple of the Yan Kingdom, who in the entire Zhaowu City doesn't know?" said a young man next to him in a weird manner. He was tall, thin, with high raised cheekbones and looked very energetic.
"Master Su, this is Li Qingchen, the son of the county guard of Zhaoyuan County, who entered the palace in the same year as me. Zhao Ying introduced.
A county guard is not a big official, but as the leader of the entire county, he can also be regarded as a feudal official, as the son of a county guard, he must be arrogant and domineering on weekdays, and he does not take others seriously.
In terms of status, this Li Qingchen is naturally far inferior to Su Qi, but Su Qi's reputation as a "gentleman's son" is outside, and Li Qingchen's first reaction is to look down on him. Moreover, the more Zhao Ying values Su Qi, the more unbalanced Li Qingchen's heart becomes, and the more he thinks that Su Qi is just relying on the name of Wen Xinjun, so his face is not good at first sight.
Su Qi smiled slightly, and didn't bother to bother with him. He still doesn't put this kind of little person in his eyes.
"This is Wang Li's son, a native of Qin, who is now studying in Yan Kingdom. ”
Wang Li looked like a traveling bachelor, dressed in white, with a free and easy demeanor. His attitude towards Su Qi was quite respectful, and his courtesy was thorough, and Su Qi's impression of him was not bad.
"This is Mr. Zhu Xiaozhu, a hermit in the Jin Kingdom, and his cultivation has already broken through the Three Realms, so this time he specially suppressed his cultivation and went to the ruins with us. ”
Zhu Xiao is five big and three thick, his face is full of meat, and he is more than eight feet tall, and he looks fierce and quite scary. Zhu Xiao hugged his fist at Su Qi, he could be regarded as having seen it.
"This is Qiushuang, my maid. ”
Qiu Shuang had been standing behind Zhao Ying's side, and only then did she step forward and give Su Qi a deep salute. She is quite well-behaved, with a round face, which is very pleasing.
Although this maid looks ordinary on the surface, Zhao Yingken brought her into the ruins, and everyone did not object, which means that there must be something special about this maid.
"Alright, the people are ready, let's go. After Zhao Ying introduced all the people, the six of them set off and walked into the depths of the woods.
Zhao Ying walked side by side with Su Qi intentionally or unintentionally, and Li Qingchen frowned for a while.
"Miss Zhao, I wonder how many people will enter the ruins this time?" asked Su Qi.
"At present, I only know that the personnel of the official organization of Yan State should be the children of the family plus some military figures, adding up to about a dozen people, and Zou Junhao should also be among them. ”
"As for the rest of the teams, it's hard to say. There are many entrances to the ruins, and no one knows how many people will find a way to infiltrate them. However, there can't be too many people entering. I guess that someone from the Jin Kingdom must come over, and some casual cultivators should also take this opportunity to come and get a piece of the pie. Zhao Ying explained.
"It looks like this is going to be a tough fight. Su Qi said.
"That's nature, but the ruins are intricate, and we don't necessarily meet these people. It's likely that they died in the ruins' trap before they even ran into them. Zhao Ying said with a smile.
It seems that Miss Zhao Ying is very confident in this trip. Su Qi said.
"I can't say I have confidence, but it's certainly much better than others. The few people I invited this time are all equipped with unique skills, and if nothing else, this time I will definitely return with a full load. Zhao Ying smiled slightly and stopped talking.
The six of them continued on their way, and finally stopped in a very secret place.
Su Qi looked up, this was already deep in the woods, and after a few people entered the woods, they kept walking north, and now it should be in the northwest direction of Zhaowu City.
"Here we are. Zhao Ying said.
"It's still far from the Academy Palace, right?"
"It's true that the ruins are under the Academy Palace, but the entire ruins occupy a huge area, and even spread around Zhaowu City. The palace is just the biggest entrance. This is also one of the entrances, and very few people know about it. ”
Zhao Ying said, gently drawing a strange symbol somewhere on the ground among the trees, only to see a faint fluorescent light emitted from the ground, turning into a hole that seemed to be nothing.
Su Qi could see that this symbol was also a kind of rune, but it was very unique, it looked like a unique rune, and it had a certain spatial effect.
"Let's go in. After Zhao Ying finished speaking, he immediately took a step forward and stepped into the glowing magic circle. Several people followed, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.
After a few moments, the circle on the ground stopped glowing, and it was as if nothing had happened.
Su Qi felt as if he was drifting in the air, and the chaotic spatial turbulence was blowing wantonly, blowing him to the ground. It's just that this feeling only lasted for a moment, and the next moment, he was already on the ground.
Su Qi looked up and saw a blue sea and blue sky in front of him. The sky was blue, with a few puffy clouds floating on it, and seagulls soared through the sky, making a soft chirp or two from time to time.
At this time, everyone was on the edge of a huge island, and they couldn't see the entire island from afar.
Near the border of the island, the waves are constantly surging up, and the waves are splashing white. From time to time, a small fish or two rolled ashore and kept jumping.
Seeing this scene in front of him, Su Qi was a little dazed. He was still in Zhaowu City just now, why did he come to the sea all of a sudden?
Is it the effect of the teleportation array? Impossible, Zhaowu City is thousands of miles away from the sea, and there is no magic circle in the world that can cross thousands of miles in one step.
Could this be the ruins? But the ruins are obviously underground, and the sky and the blue sea here are all very real, how can they be underground?
Is it an illusion? But it's too real to look like an illusion. Moreover, Su Qi did not feel any sense of crisis at all.
With many doubts, Su Qi looked at Zhao Ying, but he didn't expect that Zhao Ying was also at a loss.
"Miss Zhao, what the hell is going on?" Wang Li frowned and asked, "Where is this?"
Zhao Ying was also a little flustered, she frowned and looked around, and said with some panic: "I don't know, this, what's going on?"
"Aren't we going to the ruins? What is this place?" asked Su Qi.
"According to the previous information, it should be in the ruins. But the ruins are a small world of their own, and the people who entered before were all on a wasteland, and I have never heard of anyone going to the sea!" Zhao Ying explained.
"Could it be that the entrance to this small world will change, so we have only come to the sea? That means that we are already in the ruins now?" Su Qi said with some surprise.
"Li Gongzi, could you please take a look at whether we are in the ruins now?" Zhao Ying hurriedly said.
Li Qingchen snorted at Su Qi, took out a tortoise shell quite proudly, and began divination.
