Chapter 20: The Black Emperor
Li Xiangyun was really a little puzzled, since Iron Blood City didn't value those people in Guoshi City, why did he still fight for it?
You must know that in order to capture these people, several nearby big cities such as Iron Blood, Falling Star, Streamer, Danxia, and Chihuo fought for a day and a night.
Hearing this question, Tie Zheng, who was tall, looked up at the sky.
After a long time, he replied: "Because of our Iron Blood City, we want to return to the world." ”
"Want to go back to the world?"
"Yes, the Candlelight Cave Heaven has been separated from the world for thousands of years, don't look at my Tie clan occupying a city, it seems to be very prosperous, in fact, this Cave Heaven World is too small, closed, barren, chaotic, the Heavenly Dao is lacking, and it has not changed for thousands of years."
Li Xiangyun nodded slightly, judging from what he saw in the newspapers and books of the Immortal Mansion in the Jinxiuzhai Library, it seemed that this was indeed the case.
"Those heroic cities and big cities in the central land and the outer regions are also your singing and I appear, even if they are heroes of the millennium, they are bound by this small world after all."
"My Iron Clan has controlled Iron Blood City for more than two thousand five hundred years, and it can be said that it has been strong for a long time, but it is just a group of nesting ants in this candlelight cave sky."
"Therefore, when I sensed the breath of the Sky City and came from the human world, my Tie clan wanted to seize this opportunity to see if I could use this to open the passage between the candlelight and the great heaven and earth of the world, and the clan would return to the human world."
Tie Zheng's expression was stunned, and his deep eyes were full of anticipation.
Li Xiangyi believed his words, and couldn't help but feel a little concerned.
If he were replaced, he would be stunned if he knew that outside of the cave sky, there was a vast and prosperous world, and his family's children and grandchildren for dozens of generations were confined to the small world.
Not everyone, every family, is willing to stay in a small place all the time to be the king.
"Brother Tie, I think the Tie clan should be able to return to the world." Li Xiangyi said sincerely, "Although I don't know why the National Color City, which is located in the South Dream Huazhou of the world, suddenly came to this candlelight cave sky, but since this abnormal change has occurred, it will not stop abruptly. ”
"When all the fog is peeled away, all the secrets are revealed, the relationship between the two worlds will surely be revealed."
Just like Li Xiangyi, including the cat and cat national teacher, he never felt that after entering the candlelight cave, he would not be able to go back.
The candlelight cave has been separated from people for thousands of years, and now that it is inexplicably connected, it means that the door between the two worlds has been opened.
"I hope that as you said, Brother Li, I have informed my father and the elders, they are in the city to congratulate Brother Li, if Brother Li does not dislike it, then you can enter the city with me."
"All the people of Guoshi City are also waiting in the City Lord's Mansion."
Li Xiangyi hugged his fists and thanked: "That's it, then thank you a lot!" ”
Immediately, the two of them went to Iron Blood City together, one galloped against the wind, the other stepped into the air, and soon came to the gate of the Iron Blood City City Lord's Mansion.
As Tie Zheng said, Tie Motian, the current city lord of Iron Blood City, and a group of elders were already waiting in the square in front of the mansion.
"In the Lower Railway, on behalf of the Iron Blood City, welcome the distinguished guests of the world!" After the iron-blooded city lord saw Li Xiangyi, he was very enthusiastic.
Li Xiangyi returned the salute: "Li Yanjiu in Beizhi Gezhou, I have seen the Iron City Lord and the elders, I did not hand over the prayer post, and I came here rashly, please forgive me." ”
"Brother Li is serious, please!"
"Iron City Lord, please!"
When returning the gift, Li Xiangyi glanced at Tie Zheng next to him, your father calls me a brother, is this generation messed up?
Tie Zheng knew what he meant by this look, but he looked indifferent and pretended not to see it.
Li Xiangyun chuckled and shook his head, this father and son are also interesting.
After entering the main hall, the city lord Tie Motian immediately let the banquet be arranged, and in addition to Li Xiangyun, there were also all the people of the National Color City who had been "invited" by the Iron Blood City before.
Because there were too many people, the feast was placed from the main hall to the back garden.
Li Xiangyi glanced at it, and made sure that the guy on the third floor was in the crowd of banquets, so he settled down to drink.
During the drink, Tie Motian and several elders asked a lot about the world.
Separated from people for thousands of miles, they want to know too much what has become of the world today.
Before that, they had already known many things from the people of Guose City, but after all, they were only residents of a small city, and their knowledge was limited, and they were not as good as Li Xiangyi, the Confucian descendant of the continent.
After confirming that they sincerely inquired about each other, Li Xiangyun naturally knew everything.
During this period, they also carefully explained the entire Candlelight Cave Heaven in detail for Li Xiangyi, not only about the various immortal forces, customs and customs of the Southern Domain and the Central Land, but also about the forces of other peripheral regions, including some ancient secrets of the Candlelight Cave Heaven.
Let Li Xiangyun have a comprehensive understanding of this closed small world.
After the banquet was dispersed, the Tie family retreated, leaving the entire council hall to Li Xiangyi and the people of Guose City.
At the beginning of the banquet, the people present in Guose City had already learned that Li Xiangyi had come to rescue them on purpose, and they were very grateful.
Li Xiangyun asked them about the situation of the changes in the national color city, and they all rushed to tell them.
In the end, Li Xiangyi let them disperse, leaving the guy on the third floor alone.
"Wang Afu, I was entrusted by the headquarters of Jiuzhou Pavilion to investigate the disappearance of the third floor, and was responsible for rescuing the granddaughter Niuniu of the old shopkeeper, apart from what those people said, do you have anything to tell me?" Li Xiangyi asked directly.
The fact that the third branch belongs to the Jiuzhou Pavilion is only known to some top immortal forces on all continents, and when he heard Li Xiangyi say that he was entrusted by the Jiuzhou Pavilion, Wang Afu immediately did not doubt him.
He replied excitedly: "It seems that the secret letter sent by the shopkeeper was still sent back to the cabinet?" That's great! Miss Niu Niu is saved! ”
Li Xiangyun asked, "What happened that day?" What happened to Niu Niu? What does the six words 'Black Emperor Present, Great Day Hide' mean? ”
Wang Afu was a little stunned, as if he was stopped by this series of questions.
"You can say it one by one."
"Yes, sir! On the day of the change in the city, a strange fog suddenly enveloped the entire city, and then some mysterious gods appeared in the thick fog and attacked the monks in the city. ”
"Our third floor was the first to be attacked, those mysterious gods are very powerful, the county guard mansion and everyone were quickly breached, and our third floor barely supported a cup of tea with those treasures in the treasure pavilion."
"But when a huge god suspected of being three-headed and six-armed came in a thick fog, the old shopkeeper was defeated, and the big array in the building was instantly broken."
"Just when everyone was about to be killed, Miss Niu Niu stood up from the corner."
"The huge mysterious creature was unexpectedly attracted by Miss Niuniu, not only did not kill her, but also grabbed Miss Niuniu and took her away."
"The shopkeeper wanted to rescue him, but he was kicked away by a huge creature."
Wang Afu finished talking about what happened that day in the third floor in one breath.
"And then?"
"Then we didn't care about our injuries and tried to find Miss Niuniu, but as soon as we came to the street, we encountered countless other mysterious creatures, and we were defeated, so we had to retreat to the building and wait for help. It was at this time that the shopkeeper sent a message to the cabinet. ”
After thinking for a while, Li Xiangyi asked, "What do the six words 'Black Emperor Appear, Great Sun Yin' mean on the paper?" ”
Wang Afu recalled for a moment and said: "Mr. Hui, that is a corner of the future that the shopkeeper saw in order to find Miss Niuniu, burn his soul, and use the secret technique of heaven. ”
"According to what the old shopkeeper said before he fell unconscious, he saw a black emperor stepping through the supreme heavenly firmament, and even the great sun hanging high was swallowed by him."
"We want to ask the Black Emperor again, where did it come from, but the old shopkeeper couldn't support it and fell."
A Black Emperor, stepping on the Supreme Heavenly Dome?
What realm is this Black Emperor?
Like the emperor of the sword, is he a saint?
Or is it a supreme being beyond the saints?
What is this supreme heavenly vault? The heavenly dome of the small world of Candlelight Cave Sky should not be called the word "supreme", right?
From the world?
Or is it an outlying land?
Or is it some other, more secluded space, like the borderless sea that we passed through when we first migrated?
There is too much fog, and it may not be clear if you find the old shopkeeper.
After all, it was only the tip of the future he saw.
Suddenly, he thought of a key point and asked, "The old shopkeeper has seen Niuniu in that corner of the future?" ”
Wang Afu shook his head: "It seems that it hasn't, at least the shopkeeper didn't say it." ”
It was to find Niuniu, so I burned my soul and desperately spied into the future, but I didn't see any trace of Niuniu, so where did this little girl go?
Nothing will happen, right?
Li Xiangyi was a little worried, but he couldn't take care of these things at the moment, he asked again: "How is the old shopkeeper?" There is no military solution, right? ”
Wang Afu shook his head again and replied, "No, we used the big medicine in the Treasure Pavilion to temporarily stabilize the shopkeeper's injuries and let out a sigh of relief." ”
"I don't know why, since we retreated to the store, those mysterious creatures haven't attacked again."
Li Xiangyi put his mind at ease, and finally asked, "Then how did you separate from the third floor, and why did you fall from the city?" ”
Wang Afu replied: "After coming to this candlelight cave, although the whereabouts of Guose City are still uncertain and shrouded in treacherous fog, most of those mysterious creatures have disappeared. ”
"I also woke up from my slumber, and was assigned by the second shopkeeper to go out of the store to investigate the situation, but as soon as I arrived at the edge of the fog outside the east gate, I was dragged down by several forces."
"The rest of the people who fell, it's about the same."
Li Xiangyun bowed slightly, and by now, the context was clear.
"By the way, sir, Guose City should have flown to the center of the local population in the end, if those mysterious creatures did not appear in a big way, the shopkeeper and the second shopkeeper should still be alive."
"Only Miss Niuniu, I don't know where to go."
Li Xiangyi thanked him: "I know, thank you Brother Wang." ”
"You're welcome, sir, it's a small thing to do."
……
In a pavilion in the Iron Blood City City Lord's Mansion.
Li Xiangyun and the young city lord Tie Zheng had a relative discussion.
"Brother Tie, I'll go to the Central Land immediately, and these people of Guoshi City will leave it to you. If Iron Blood City is not suitable for placement, ask Brother Tie to send them to Falling Star City, and the new Falling Star City Lord will accept them. ”
"What are you talking about, Brother Li? It's just some innocent people, and I, Iron Blood, can still protect them. I know what you're worried about, don't worry, with you and that cat and cat national teacher making such a fuss, the entire Southern Domain, and even the entire Candlelight Cave Heaven, all know that these people from the human world are protected, and no one dares to do anything wrong to them again. ”
"So, thank you very much."
"Brother Li is too polite, but you, you have to be careful after going to the central land, the central land can suppress the outer region for thousands of years, it is definitely not a good land, even if it is called the Longtan Tiger's Den. As an outsider, Brother Li, especially from the human world, will definitely be targeted by many big names. ”
"I understand that there is more than one saint there, and I will not provoke them unless I have to, and if they do find them, then I have my own way of dealing with them."
"That's good, then I wish Brother Li a smooth sailing and all his wishes come true!"
"Thank you, Brother Tie."
At the time of parting, Tie Zheng gave Li Xiangyun a booklet, which recorded in detail the situation of the various families in the Central Land, including the saints sitting on one side of the Seven Great Male Cities, as well as some powerful monks of hidden forces.
This heart is touching.
After Li Xiangyi accepted the booklet, he thanked him.
Then he rode the wind again and headed north.
After a short time, he came to the outside of Danxia City, which was agreed with the Maomao National Teacher, but only Huang Datou, the general of the Divine Tiger, was waiting there.
"Little Brother Li, half an hour ago, there was a terrifying cyan snake that flew out of the wild mountains and swept away."
"My master felt that the big green snake had offended her, and she chased after her."
"She left a message to meet us in the Central."
Ran away after a big green snake?
What kind of big green snake is that, which can alarm the national teacher, go out in person, and be reluctant to give up.
This cat national teacher seems to be a little unreliable, isn't she in a hurry to find the whereabouts of Guose City, how can she still have the heart to take care of a passing snake.
Tiger Demon Huang Datou saw Li Xiangyi's doubts, and said with a wry smile: "That big green snake is close to ten thousand zhang, and its realm is close to that of a saint, so the master has some itchy skills for a while." ”
"Before she entered the human world, she had been living near the Valley of Ten Thousand Snakes, where many powerful snake demons were her favorite rations."
It turned out that he wanted to eat others, and Li Xiangyi was even more speechless.
But there is no way, the national teacher has already run away, and he can't catch her back, so he can only pray that she can come in time after going to the central place.
Otherwise, there were so many saint-level great supernatural powers in the central land, and it would really not be easy for him and the Divine Tiger General to deal with them.
All the captive people of Guose City in the southern region have been rescued.
The two then traveled north together.
About three days later, after flying over a towering mountain range, the two finally set foot in the famous Central Land.
Just as he was about to discuss which Xiongcheng to go to first, a figure flew in the distance.
