Volume 2, The Journey of the Husband and Gentleman Chapter 41, The Secret of Tang Ling
Under the stone steps of the high platform, the Meizu people who had just stepped into the avenue stopped, their black robes fluttering slowly in the rain, not wet at all by the heavy rain at this time, those black robes turned out to be not real robes, but a layer of black mist.
The black-robed man in the lead turned his head to look at the high platform, where a bright white light shone in it, like the rising sun, and like the bright stars in the night sky.
The vision in the Tang Tomb appeared with the rise of bright light, and in the bright light, there was a calm and indifferent breath.
The black robe suddenly danced wildly in the rain, like a heavy dark cloud in the sky, indicating that his mood was changing, and he also guessed something from it at this time, and he was very shocked.
Beiguo Chaoli leaned against a piece of rubble, unable to move the slightest.
None of the northerners dressed in white were unharmed, except for the princess of the north.
Ximen Ye tore open his shirt and wiped the blood from his chest, there was a deep wound there, but it was not fatal, it came from the previous desperate knife of Chao Li.
The princess of the northern kingdom didn't make a move from beginning to end, because Miss Qiao in Luoxue Lou didn't know where to hide, and she didn't dare.
Qiao Fei'er walked out of the devastated alleyway, she took out some elixir, let Simon Ye eat it, and then poured a bottle of liquid elixir on his wound.
A vision rose in the sky, and then the rain began to fall, and Simon Ye had an umbrella stretched out above his head, and Qiao Feier stood there quietly. Ximen Ye looked at his junior sister, said thank you, and then said sorry.
Jofer understood, and disappeared into the alleyway in the pouring rain.
Ximen Ye took out some elixir and threw it to the princess of the northern kingdom.
"If Chao Li dies, will the Northlanders lose a future asylum? Will the old emperor be angry? And will you cry? ”
The princess of the northern kingdom did not speak, and in the heavy rain she no longer had the cold and arrogant demeanor she had before, like a poor girl, she smiled lightly, and in addition to weakness, there was bitterness in her smile.
...........
Bai Jiu put his hand down from the jade, and the light on the jade gradually dimmed, but the dull and ethereal aura did not disappear.
As the light of the jade bi dissipated, the dark clouds in the Tang Tomb gradually merged, piling up the hollow, the sky light dissipated, the heavy rain still poured down, the sky was dark again, and thunder roared.
In the real world, the tens of thousands of clouds on the sky that are like hanging stones gradually disperse, merge with each other, and turn into clear white clouds in spring again, rippling leisurely, like a white shepherd.
The cultivators in the Qingshan Ridge who felt the vision and looked up at the sky and the clouds were silent for a long time, and then withdrew their gaze silently with their own complex emotions.
That breath disappeared from the heavenly dome and disappeared from the Tang Tomb.
However, it did not really disappear, but fell into Bai Jiu's body like a warm current.
The words disappeared from the jade, and everything on the jade was restored to the same as before, but there was no longer the light of Bitan.
Bai Jiu's eyes showed a blank look, he felt that there was something more in his body, but he didn't know what it was, he felt that his eyes were clear, he remembered the huge landscape painting scroll in the treasure house of Dayu, at this time, the landscape on it seemed to be a little clearer than in the past.
Bai Jiu walked out of the main hall and came to the stone steps.
The sky was dark, the clouds were tumbling violently like black pythons, and the lightning roared like an angry roar.
There is only one way from the avenue to the high platform, and that is this stone staircase.
When you go down, there is naturally only one way.
The stone steps in the rain were slippery and clean, and in some places there was even a slight sparkle, but the steps were not all made of marble, but the residual dust obscured the jade, and now they looked like stars in the night sky. In the distance, at eye level, there is only the huge city wall, which looks like a stage curtain at this time.
The performance in the rain must be glamorous and mesmerizing.
Bai Jiu walked on the stone steps in the rain, his clothes soaked by the heavy rain, and they clinged to his body weakly like wet leaves. His hair was also wet, but the hair that was tied up by Ouyang Luo in the academy did not fall apart, but it was a little slanted, which looked a little funny. There is water everywhere on his body, yes, the sky is full of water, and he is in heaven and earth, how can he be spared?
In the center of the stone steps, a young swordsman stood.
The swordsman was not wearing a black robe, but was shirtless, and there was a deep wound on his chest, which was no longer bleeding, but it was still shocking.
Bai Jiu saluted apologetically and asked, "Is there a problem?" ”
Ximen Ye exclaimed: "The northern country is indeed very strong. ”
The high stone steps are a long way from the main road in the city, so it is natural that it will take a long time.
The two did not deliberately speed up, nor did they deliberately slow down, they walked very slowly, and they walked very normally.
The rain was pouring down, and there was no sound around except the sound of the rain.
Bai Jiu told Ximen Ye everything that happened on the stone platform, of course, including the changes that happened on the stone wall at the end, and the text on it, but he didn't say how he touched the stone wall.
Ximen Ye told what had happened after Bai Jiu left, including the images that had appeared in the sky before.
Bai Jiu looked up at the heavy rain, was silent for a moment, and then asked, "What did Senior Uncle Xiao ask you to check?" ”
Ximen Ye did not hide it: "Decades ago, a spiritual rain fell into the world, covering almost the entire Tianfu Continent, and then there was a vision of the South China Sea. In fact, in the hundreds of years since the Tang Dynasty, there have been small-scale spiritual rains in the world, and it is not only rain that falls from the sky, but also other things. ”
"Something else?" Bai Jiu thought of the fairy sword that had been placed in the library building and the huge jade wall on the high platform.
Ximen Ye was silent for a moment and said, "The blood of the Heavenly Dao." ”
Bai Jiu frowned slightly, this was the second time he had heard such words, the first time was in the tomb of the Tang Emperor in that deep valley. At that time, Emperor Tang seemed to be very excited, as if the blood of this Heavenly Dao came from the heavens and was an indispensable part of refining the elixir, and this part existed in Bai Jiu's body.
Ximen Ye continued: "What Uncle Xiao didn't expect was that the Tang Emperor did not become an immortal, but was trapped in this Tang Tomb. The last medicinal material of the elixir turned out to be the blood of the Heavenly Dao. It's just that Uncle Xiao doesn't understand what the blood of the Heavenly Dao is, so let's check it out. ”
"There are ruins of the Nantian Dao Gate in Qingshan Ridge, and we found clues there and found the Tang Tomb. Many of the things that exist in the Tang Tombs come from the heavens, and the same is true of the blood of this Heavenly Dao. Moreover, the blood of this Heavenly Dao does not seem to be a medicinal herb, but the blood of a real living creature. ”
Hearing this, Bai Jiu was stunned for a moment, and the words that the Tang Emperor said when he was in the tomb of the Tang Emperor came to his mind: such a great existence.
He thought of the black sea inside him and fell silent.
Ximen Ye didn't know what Bai Jiu was thinking, he looked at the sky in the distance, looked at the torrential rain, was silent for a moment, and then sighed: "For countless years, heaven and earth have been out of contact with each other. However, at this time, there are more problems in the sky. ”
Bai Jiu looked up at him and asked, "Does Brother Ximen also believe in the Immortal Realm?" ”
Ximen Ye smiled: "If you don't say what you have seen, how dare you assert it." It's just that Uncle Xiao once said that the so-called immortal world is just a group of cultivators who are different from us. And judging from what has happened in the last hundred years, this heavenly immortal realm is not very peaceful. ”
At the end of the stone steps is the avenue.
It was not that there was no one on the avenue, on the contrary, many black robes fluttered unnaturally in the rain, like countless pieces of night torn from the night.
People from Meizu?
It seems that the previous vision of heaven and earth made these people discover something from it.
The shadow of the Empress Xili, the legend is that it comes from the group of the Nine Netherworlds, no matter what happens now, Bai Jiu is unwilling to come into contact with it at this time.
He turned his gaze to Ximen Ye, and then took out the bell in his arms, as long as he crushed this bell, the teleportation formation here could take Bai Jiu out of the Tang Tomb.
Ximen Ye also had such a bell, and when he entered the Tang Tomb, a special official handed these things into his hands, but he didn't take them out, but looked at Bai Jiu and shook his head, and sighed: "Brother Bai, this may really be a desperate battle." ”
Bai Jiu didn't understand the meaning of this sentence.
Simon reached out and took the bell from his hand, then crushed it.
As the bell shattered, there was no imaginary scene around, the wind did not stop, the rain was still pouring down, and the teleportation crack that should have appeared was not revealed.
Bai Jiu frowned, and then looked at Ximen Ye.
Ximen Ye said: "The previous movement was a little bigger, they naturally didn't want us to go, and the formation here should have been artificially destroyed at a very early stage." ”
"And, people out there, they probably don't know yet."
Bai Jiu was silent, he slowly lay his hand on the hilt of the sword, and his breath rose in vain at this moment.
Ximen Ye is right, this may really be a desperate battle, as long as you lose, you will die.
...........
Outside the Sword Gate, the mountain is like a sword, and the momentum is magnificent.
The Great Sword of the main mountain is surrounded by clouds and mist, and when you look at the mountainside in all directions, it is only a flat cloud, like an isolated island floating in a sea of clouds. However, where is the cloud, it is only the fog in the mountains in the early morning, and it has not completely dispersed.
There was a ray of light falling from the sky into the Great Sword Mountain, this light connected the heavens and the earth, rising from the clouds of the Nine Heavens, and spreading out in the three directions of the Central Continent.
The two old men sat in silence at the head of the city, which was guarded by countless soldiers.
A vision had risen in the sky and had just vanished, and the people were trying to figure out what it meant.
However, in the next moment, a clear vibration spread throughout the mountains, the magnitude of the shaking of the Great Sword Mountain was not large, and the clouds and mist of the mountains did not dissipate, but everyone's faces instantly became panicked, and they looked at the sky, full of surprise.
The light was still there, but it was a little dimmer than before.
On the city wall, the old general Zuo Tang suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes were full of vigilance and shock, Huo Ran got up, like a long sword waiting to be unsheathed.
Lord Zhuge also opened his eyes, and there was an inexplicable look in his expression, where was there still a little sleepiness.
The light gradually dimmed, but it did not dissipate, and there seemed to be some kind of rule hidden in it, sealing its power away.
Clouds and mist filled the mountain, and where the light shone, a peach grove loomed, and small pieces of lightning rose from it, flying like snakes.
The peach blossoms fell on the mountain road, and the mist occupied it, and it seemed that it would never dissipate.
Lord Zhuge and Old General Zuo Tang stood at the front of the crowd, looking at the picture in front of them with serious expressions, with their eyesight, they could naturally see that the mountain road in the fog had not dissipated, but was only disturbed by some kind of power, and above that light, there was a kind of seal, the power to lock it.
This power did not come from outside, but from within the Tang Tomb, and someone locked the passage in the Tang Tomb.
Who will it be?
