Chapter 40: All the Way West
Sun Li shrugged, glanced at Xu Youcai and Lu Qing, who were still in shock, and didn't say anything, swallowed the light point and disappeared into the air.
Then comes the fifth level.
In the fifth level, the wind is cold, the snow is drifting for thousands of miles, and the earth is plain white.
"Woo woo", the cold wind like a ghost crying wolf howls blows against the ground, and then the air twists for a while, revealing the figures of Sun Li and the four of them.
Sun Li squinted at the surrounding scene, then grabbed a handful of snow on the ground, looked at the little by little water in his hand, his eyes flickered and said: "In this way, this level should be the position in the gossip, the eight shapes belong to water, the eight directions belong to the west, the eight bodies belong to the ears, the eight animals belong to the pigs, and the five elements belong to water." ”
"Then let's go to the west, and then kill a pig demon to break the level?" Li Qing'er said, looking at Sun Li.
Sun Li nodded and looked at the vast earth: "If there is no accident, it should be about the same." ”
"Let's go, then. Li Qing'er said, and then took the lead in walking towards the west, Sun Li was slightly stunned, then shook his head and followed, Xu Youcai and Lu Qing just followed closely.
As a result, Li Qing'er had just walked a few steps, and suddenly turned back to Sun Li and asked, "The five elements of the guarding monsters in this pass belong to water, so don't you need to prepare the soil first?"
"No, there's still a little dirt left from the last level, so it's enough. Sun Li said this and took out a small cloth bag to show it.
"Oh well. Li Qing'er stopped talking, turned her head and took another step.
Then there is a stick of incense, two pillars of incense, and three sticks of incense.
One hour, two hours, three hours.
After six hours, it was already dark, and the four tired men finally stopped.
"Haven't arrived yet?" Li Qing'er frowned.
"Do you want to rest for a while. Xu Youcai gasped.
But Sun Li looked at the night around him, and said slowly: "It seems that something is wrong." ”
"What is called something wrong, I think it should be all wrong, right, then all the ancient gossip should be made up by you, hum. Lu Qing, who followed all the way, said politely.
Sun Li didn't pay attention to the other party at all, just looked at the night and thought about what went wrong, otherwise it would be impossible to walk for so long without meeting the monsters guarding the gate.
You must know that after getting the clue in the first level, I only walked for more than half an hour, and I met the monster Iron Horse guarding the level. And then the second level, from getting the clue to meeting the monster guarding the level, it was more than half an hour, and the third level was the longest, and it was only an hour. And this fifth level, it's been six hours now, and I still haven't seen the monsters guarding the level, something is absolutely wrong.
"Could it be, I've walked through it before?" Li Qing'er said.
Sun Li shook his head, "Impossible, there is an open area in this snowy field, if there are guarding monsters, as long as they are not as small as mice, they will be discovered, and it is impossible to ignore them." ”
"Then there's only one possibility, we're going in the wrong direction. Li Qing'er said quietly.
Sun Li's face was calm, "I have also considered this possibility, but if it is not the West, which direction will it be?" According to the ancient gossip, the Kan position is the West, or is this pass not the Kan position?"
"But it's not a kan position, what kind of hexagram will it be?" Sun Li's tone was a little puzzled.
"Xun's position, Xun's position, the eight-shaped wind, which is consistent with the cold wind that blew before, but now that there has been no wind for a long time, it can't be Xun's position. ”
"Earthquake position? The seismic position is mine, but there is no thunder at all, so it can't be a seismic position. Sun Li ruled out one by one, "The last thing that remains is the departure of the eight forms belonging to fire, which is even more inconsistent." ”
"However, we really can't see the monsters guarding the pass here, and if we continue like this, it is very likely that the time has come before we have broken the level. Li Qing'er said with a solemn face.
"I have no choice but to continue walking...... Sun Li said expressionlessly, "There is still hope of breaking the barrier if I go down, but there is no possibility of stopping here."
On the other hand, Lu Qing snorted coldly and spoke again, "I said it, as soon as mortals think about it, the immortals laugh. This trial was set up by the elders of Jinhua Mountain, so it is strange that they can guess it. You were able to kill the strange sheep and the big dog before, I think it was just a coincidence, and now it's not what you said it is. Keep walking, I think it's the same for 10,000 years, except for the snow, it's snow!"
"Then you're still coming along?" Sun Li slowly turned his head to look at Lu Qing, his tone slightly heavier.
Lu Qing's face changed, and he said, "This trial is not your family, if I take a walk, will it have to go through your approval?"
"Yes, then you can go and disappear from my eyes. ”
"Let's go, can we leave you, this pass can't be broken? Don't you have to go west, I'll go east. Saying this, Lu Qing turned his head and walked towards the way he came. But after walking a few steps and stopping, his tone changed, he looked at Li Qing'er, and said respectfully: "Princess, why don't you also go to the east to have a look, what if there are monsters guarding the gate there?"
Li Qing'er didn't say anything, just swept her eyes over Lu Qing and looked into the distance.
"Princess, ......" Lu Qing's voice froze, and he said with a little panic, "Princess, you must not follow this kid down, you haven't seen the monster guarding the pass for six hours, it must be wrong." ”
"Shut up!" Li Qing'er retracted her gaze and shot at Lu Qing, scolding with a frosty face, "I told you, I don't need you to command what I do." ”
"But...... But ......" Lu Qing said a little anxiously, "Princess, he is really wrong, you have to believe me"
"Believe? I have only believed in one person since I was a child, and that is the Queen Mother. Li Qing'er looked at Lu Qing coldly, "After the death of the queen mother, I no longer trust anyone, even my father and emperor, I only believe in myself, and now you say that I believe in you?"
"Princess, do you really want to follow this kid on?" Lu Qing's face became extremely ugly.
"No, it won't. Li Qing'er suddenly shook her head and said, "I said, I only believe in myself now." ”
"Then ...... you" Lu Qing's face showed a little joy, "You and I are going east together?"
"Not really. Li Qing'er turned her head and looked in a direction in the night, "I'm going to go northeast, I believe there are guarding monsters there." ”
"Ah!" Lu Qing was slightly stunned, and Li Qing'er stood up and said that she would go, not dragging mud and water at all, and stepped into the night, and soon she couldn't see her figure.
"Princess, you ......", Lu Qing hurriedly wanted to catch up, but he raised his steps and fell quickly, because Lu Qing remembered what he said before to go to the east.
"If I catch up now, will I make the princess think that I am a stalker, if that is the case......" Lu Qing thought of this, cold sweat fell, but he didn't want the influence he had worked so hard to build up in the princess's heart to collapse, so he had to grit his teeth and walk towards the east.
But Sun Li watched the two leave, then shrugged his shoulders, looked at Xu Youcai, who stayed by his side at the end, and asked, "You're not leaving?"
"Where are you going?"
"You can go anywhere. ”
"Then I should follow my benefactor, I think it is safest to follow you. Xu Youcai asked cautiously.
Sun Li smiled dumbly, then shook his head and walked directly towards the west, and said as he walked: "Although I know that there must be a problem in this direction, I still have to walk again, take a look again, figure out what the problem is, and then I can make the next conclusion." If you want to follow, follow it, and if time permits, wait until tomorrow when the sun comes out. ”
"Good. Xu Youcai didn't think about it at all.
Sun Li nodded, didn't say more, and just walked down in silence.
As a result, two lines of footprints appeared in the snow, constantly going west to west and back again.
All the way to the west......
