68 Zuo Ci's Labyrinth 4 The Road of Qimen
Jiang Jinjiu asked, "That means that with the paper man and the golden cricket, we don't have to get those organs in the southeast and northwest to get in?" ”
Qin Xuan shook his head, "No, the cave heaven and earth are a special space squeezed out of heaven and earth, and there are generally three gates: heaven, earth, and combination. The gate of heaven is not easy to master. Each cave can be said to be a living body, with a unique breath of life. Only when you have mastered the breath and set up the corresponding seals can you arrange the entrance and exit of the Xuanmen outside. The closing gate is a naturally formed entrance, but only living beings can enter. And the underground gate is the passage for aliens and ghosts to enter and exit. ”
"Oh-" Jiang Jinjiu said suddenly, "I understand, because the clone of Youcang is a monster, so Zuo Ci put a particularly complicated mechanism on the ground gate to stop them......" After saying a few words, he felt puzzled, "Let's use paper people to guide the way now, then it should be considered a ghost, shouldn't it be the underground gate?" ”
"Stupid sake lees, we're going to Hemen now."
"But......" he wondered even more, not knowing what to ask.
"Stupid sake lees, you don't want to think about it, if there is no means to cover up the door, how can no one find out for more than two thousand years? Senior brother has already investigated, Zuo Ci used fantasy spells to arrange the obstacle, and forcibly erased the closed door in the world. And there is no way in the obstacle, only the spirit can open up a way through the obstacle. ”
"Jieling? Is it the one in the paper figures? ”
"yes, it's hard to find."
"Isn't it just two ghosts, it's easy for you."
"Whoever tells you that it's a ghost, it's the spirit of the mountain, the spirit of the earth, you should treat it as an elf, if you can't catch it, you can only invite it. The senior brother sent people to guard in the mountains for half a year before he found the traces, and it took a lot of energy to invite them. ”
"I'm going to go! No wonder Mr. Gongsun can be the chairman, this mentality and means are really not comparable to ordinary people. But...... I have such a good baby, do you still need my master? ”
"Are you stupid, they are just leading the way, and you have to help the second master to really find the door."
"What's going on?"
"To say that Zuo Ci is really a fairy, the obstacle he arranged is not something that a mortal can crack. Thanks to his brother's wealth and connections, he found this path through brainstorming. Otherwise, even if our Master is alive, we may not be able to find a closed door. And there has to be luck in this matter, although Jieling can open the way in the obstacle, but he can't open the door to enter the obstacle. The door of the obstacle is erratic and opens for a short time. Luckily, if you get Shenshui, you can go straight to the obstacle. ”
"I see."
Jiang Jinjiu suddenly felt that the ghostly light emitted by Qin Xuan's clothes was brighter, and when he saw that Qin Zhaoyun and Gongsun Zhi were the same, he couldn't help asking, "I just wanted to ask, why do we all have light on us?" ”
Qin Xuan smiled evilly and said in a reciting tone, "This is all the brilliance of banknotes." ”
"Huh?"
"Do you think we're wearing normal tracksuits? Haha, this is made of polymer materials, the inside is warm and breathable, and the outer layer is very strong, and it takes a lot of effort to cut it with a knife. It's also waterproof, it can refract light, and infrared rays can't penetrate it very well, do you understand what this means? ”
Jiang Jinjiu shook his head.
"Stupid, this means that we don't have much heat in the eyes of nocturnal creatures like snakes, and from a distance, we are just a reflective stone."
"I'm going to go! Black technology! ”
"No, I was also poor at the beginning, which limited my imagination, thinking that if people wanted to hide their breath, they had to restrain their breath or something. I don't think my senior brother will directly make a dress and put on a ghost to treat you as a living person. ”
"I'm going to go! If we weren't human, there would be a lot less danger. ”
"Humph! How afraid you are of death, this is a little bit of a point. ”
Jiang Jinjiu scratched his head and smirked, suddenly the surroundings were a little brighter, and in a blink of an eye, it turned out to be the soles of the feet of the two paper figures in front of him who were on fire!
But Gongsun Zhi was not in a hurry, bowed to the paper figure three times, and took out the compass and locator to survey the direction.
Qin Zhaoyun also quickly came to his side and bowed three times.
Qin Xuan hurriedly took Jiang Jinjiu's hand and ran to Gongsun Zhi's side, bowing three times.
The blue flames enveloped the paper figure in the blink of an eye, and the green smoke produced did not fly upwards, but instead burrowed downwards into the ground. With the intense light of the fire, the surrounding scenery no longer resembles an old painting, but returns to the colors of nature.
When the paper figure burned to ashes, there was no darkness around it, and although the bright moonlight could not illuminate, at least one could see the outline of things.
Jiang Jinjiu suddenly found that they were already halfway up the hill! But it's been walking on flat ground!?
He was puzzled and asked, "Where are we?" How did the paper man burn? ”
"Of course, Jieling completed the task and left."
Jiang Jin was frightened, and it took 300,000 yuan to turn into ashes after such a while!
"Wonderful! Wonderful! Gongsun Zhi looked at the locator and said excitedly, "Whether Zuo Ci is a person or a group of people, I admire it from the bottom of my heart for such a means of flying in my sleeves and flying away." ”
Qin Xuan asked, "Senior brother, what's the situation?" ”
Gongsun Zhi said: "We are in Jiulong Mountain at the moment. ”
"What!?" The brother and sister exclaimed in unison.
Jiang Jinjiu didn't know where Jiulong Mountain was, and he was confused.
Qin Xuan told him that Jiulong Mountain was at least three mountains away from the starting point, and the distance in a straight line was more than ten kilometers.
Jiang Jinjiu exclaimed, "Let's just walk for a while, and we'll walk ten kilometers!?" ”
Gongsun Zhi said, "That's right, I thought that the obstacle covered the entire cave and the earth, it turned out to be a maze, no wonder the aliens couldn't get in for so long." ”
Qin Zhaoyun suddenly said, "No! This is not Jiulong Mountain. ”
Gongsun Zhi was surprised: "How to talk about it?" ”
Qin Zhaoyun pointed to the west and said, "I used to explore feng shui when I traveled to Jiulong Mountain, and even if it is dark now, I can't see clearly, and the two side peaks of the dragon guard are obviously missing. He pointed to the southeast again, "Jiulong Lake should be over there, there are villages around, but now it is dark." ”
Gongsun Zhi recalibrated the positioning, showing that there was no change, "The instrument should not be wrong, Zhaoyun, you take a closer look." ”
Qin Xuan said, "Why don't you go to the top of the mountain and take a look?" ”
Qin Zhaoyun said, "I'll go." ”
As soon as he took two steps, Gongsun Zhi stopped him and said, "Don't worry, don't worry, we have to think about it, Zuo Ci won't put the exit of the obstacle here for no reason." If we walk around, we may be as useless as other people. ”
As he spoke, he held up the jade coffin and pointed it at the top of the mountain, and a whistle came from the jade coffin. But instead of feeling happy, he turned the jade coffin to the east, and there was a whistle!
Gongsun Zhi frowned, and turned the jade coffin to the south again, but there was another whistle, and this time even the brows of the brother and sister were furrowed.
Qin Xuan wondered, "I've never seen the golden cricket lost, what's going on?" ”
Gongsun Zhi sighed: "It seems that it's time to invite the second master." ”
Jiang Jinjiu hurriedly took out the bone china bottle, and after Li Er appeared, he looked left and right, and jumped twice.
He said, "What the hell, how do I feel like I'm in the water." ”
"Oh?" Gongsun Zhi asked, "The second master takes a closer look at the mountain, is there anything unusual?" ”
"I'll try." Li Er stared intently, and said for a moment, "No, no, it's too dark, I can't see anything?" ”
Jiang Jinjiu wondered, "No, Master, the moon is bright enough." ”
"The moon? Where is the moon? ”
Qin Xuan pointed to the moon and said urgently, "That's it, the second master can't see it?" ”
Li Er followed her hand and searched, "Where?" Not even a star. ”
Gongsun Zhi said in a deep voice, "Don't be entangled, Second Master, please open Ghost Cong, Qin Xuan Zhaoyun, and use two talismans." ”
The brother and sister responded to the call, and Li Er took a horse step and closed his eyes to silently exercise.
When he was young, black gas rose from the ground and condensed on Li Er's eyelids, and the brother and sister immediately rubbed the talisman paper and hit it into Li Er's body. Immediately after that, the black qi instantly entered Li Er's eyes, and he immediately opened his eyes.
His eyes were black, and unlike before, there was a thin tail of black gas in the corner of his eye.
At this time, Gongsun Zhi said, "Second master, please observe the surrounding situation carefully, and don't let go of a detail." ”
Li Er replied, "No, we are in a big bun, and we can't see the outside." ”
"Big buns?" Qin Xuan wondered, "What do you mean?" ”
"It's just that we're in something like a bun, huh?" Li Er pointed to the northeast, "There is a passage over there." ”
Qin Xuan exclaimed, "Hey, oh my God! Did I misunderstand that we came out of the obstacle and went straight to the Void Gate!? ”
Gongsun Zhidao: "It's not just the Void Gate, it's also the Seal Realm. If I didn't miscalculate, just now we just need to get out of the circle and jump out immediately, the previous efforts are all in vain, and only by following the passage seen by the second master can we reach the next pass...... Zuo Ci, Zuo Ci, not only calculates people, but also tests people. Let's cheer up, and if we don't use all our skills, we won't want to go into his house. ”
"No problem." The brother and sister responded in unison, looking very excited.
Gongsun Zhi said, "Please Li Er go to Xiaojiang's body and lead us." ”
Li Er smiled and said, "It's easy to say." ”
After Jiang Jinjiu invited Li Er to come up, everyone tied them to their wrists with red ropes and tied them to each other.
Then Li Er led everyone into the passage he saw and walked slowly.
In the eyes of others, Li Er walked down the hillside, seeing that there were many places where he couldn't get his feet, but there was always something to step on. Even if the ramp is like a broken wall, there are protruding roots or stones to step on. When encountering seemingly dense bushes, you don't need to use a sharp blade to open the way, but there is a tortuous gap that only allows one person to pass, and people only need to keep changing postures to pass through smoothly. And it looks like it's going to the top of the mountain, but it's going uphill for a while, and it's going downhill for a while, and the feeling of traveling is quite weird.
And every time he walks for a while, Li Er will meet a fork in the road. Sometimes there are two forks, sometimes there are three forks, but fortunately, the golden claw can show the way.
After walking for about half an hour, Li Er encountered a broken slope with a drop of about two meters, and he wanted to lead everyone to jump down. But in the eyes of others, there is a half-meter-high hill in front of them, and you need to jump on it.
Everyone was puzzled and could only move forward. But when the people jumped up, the scenery in front of them suddenly changed, and they were already in the col area of the deep mountain hinterland.
Gongsun Zhi was excited at this time: "Qimen Dunjia's technique!" This is the art of Qimen Dunjia! Wonderful! The legendary Jingmen technique is really mysterious! ”
Qin Xuan asked excitedly, "What is Jingmen Technique?" ”
"As it is now, the road leading to Hemen is a combination of yin and yang. Both paths must be ascended at the same time, one path to the spirit and the other to the person, and the conditions must be met to lead to the right path. ”
"The heifer of Class 3 is not an ordinary cow!" Qin Zhaoyun sighed, "Seeing that walking towards the top of the mountain is actually a roundabout way into the mountain, if there is no guide, even if you record the path, you will go up the mountain, absolutely not!" Even if you return empty-handed this time, it is really worth the trip to see such a clever technique. ”
"Phew!" Qin Xuan reprimanded, "Crow's mouth, what empty-handed, Qimen Dunjia, we have also come over, which shows that our strength is strong enough." ”
Gongsun Zhi laughed dryly, "Qin Xuan, don't be complacent too early, we are just lucky." If Jingmen sets a few more conditions, we can only go home empty-handed. ”
At this time, Li Erdao, "Don't talk yet, the road is gone." ”
"How so?" Gongsun Zhi was shocked and asked, "Why didn't you see it!?" ”
"What do you mean, like ...... Like, the Tao is like a intestine, hooked by something. Li Er pointed to the north and flew over there. ”
Gongsun Zhi hurriedly tested it with a jade coffin, and only there was a whistle in the north.
The northern terrain is flat, now shrouded in darkness in the shadow of the mountains. Everyone shone their flashlights and saw a thorn forest, densely packed like a high wall.
Qin Xuan said, "No wonder the second master can't see it, the thorn tree can shield the breath." ”
Gongsun Zhi took out the compass and watched, "More than that, I'm afraid this thorn forest is another pass." The compass has failed, presumably a maze. ”
Qin Xuan said confidently, "That's not easy, look at me this time." ”
Gongsun Zhi looked at his watch, it was almost 23 o'clock, "Okay, give you an hour, let's camp here." ”
"Hey, senior brother, just look at it, even if you don't have confidence in me, you have to have faith in Master."
Saying that, Qin Xuan put down his backpack, took a few talismans and walked to the relatively empty place in front of Jing Lin, meditated cross-legged, and closed his eyes to exercise.
After a while, Qin Xuan's body heated up, and his skin was slightly red. She jumped to her feet and backflipped. Holding a fan in one hand and opening the palm of the other hand to practice martial arts, the movements are as gentle as dancing, and the footwork is very elegant, all in the circle.
She still closed her eyes, but she knew what was going on around her as if she were open.
Suddenly, with a dragon pose, the six talismans rose with the fan, formed a hexagonal shape in the air, rotated and burned. At the same time as the rune paper burned out, a firebird flew out of the fire circle, and with a chirp, it flew straight towards Jinglin.
But seeing Qin Xuan fall to the ground, the fan in his hand shone red. The firebird crisscrosses the edge above the thorn forest, and every time it chirps, it finds a node.
In about five minutes, the firebird dissipated. Qin Xuan opened his eyes, looked back and smiled, "It's done!" Let's go. ”
Gongsun Zhi clapped his hands and smiled, "It's amazing, it's amazing, you can use the tracing technique and the Liuhe Spiritual Attraction Technique together, and the girl has a set." ”
Qin Xuan covered his mouth and smiled, "That's not thanks to Senior Brother, without this phoenix dance fan, no matter how tricky it is, it can't be used." ”
"It's sweet in your mouth."
Everyone didn't say much, and Qin Xuan led the way. Interspersed back and forth in the Jing forest, from time to time I had to retreat a little, and it took more than an hour to get out of the forest.
Outside the forest is a mountain col with knee-high weeds, and steep mountains on both sides are lush with vines and mosses.
Unable to see the path for a while, Gongsun Zhi asked everyone to rest first and drink some water. Li Er relieved the ghost cong and left Jiang Jinjiu's body to chat with everyone.
During this period, Gongsun Zhi did the math in his heart, and when they encountered five trees in the forest, they would go to the left of the third tree, suitable for four into one right, three into two right, and five for every two...... And when encountering dead trees, the algorithm is reversed, and such complex techniques may not be figured out after half a month of exploration under normal circumstances.
However, what he was even more puzzled about was how this thorn forest could be placed in a maze when it would grow for a maximum of fifty years?
He told everyone about his worries and reminded them to be mindful and vigilant.
