Chapter 477: Old Days
After Cheng Mingyue returned to normal, the three of them walked towards the school palace that looked even a little dilapidated.
The place had only one closed gate, and it was unmanned, as if it had long been abandoned.
Guan Gui asked, "Exploring the way?" ”
It seems that he wants to use some kind of imp to ask for directions and other methods to investigate first.
Li Rui shook his head and said, "Don't do it, what if people just don't like to clean." If there is someone inside and catches your imp, even if we have a token of the source real person, it is not easy to explain. ”
He walked to the front and snapped the knocker.
Bang bang bang.
Then there was a long silence.
After a while, just as Li Rui wanted to knock again, the sound of lowering the deadbolt came from behind the door, which was not much taller than a person, and then a crack was opened.
A young man's face was exposed, and he stared at the three of them suspiciously, but said nothing.
Boom.
The door closed again.
"Hey!"
Cheng Mingyue wanted to step forward and theorize, "You're too rude!" ”
"Wait."
Li Rui stopped Cheng Mingyue, who wanted to call the door, "Something is wrong, look." ”
When he reached for the knocker of the school palace again, he didn't lift him up again, but passed through it, like a ghost.
"Huh?!"
In Cheng Mingyue's shock, Li Rui walked directly to the door, did not push it open, passed directly through the door, and disappeared in place.
After a few seconds, his figure reappeared.
"What kind of skill are you!"
Li Rui shook his head: "It's not a skill, we don't seem to be entities, it's just that when we were just teleported, we hadn't fully integrated, so there was a knock on the door." ”
He grabbed Cheng Mingyue's hand and pulled it, and both of them passed through the gate of the school palace and came inside, where the back of the young scholar just now was still fading away.
At this time, Guan Gui also followed.
"I remember something."
"There should be a Demon Tower in Jingyang Academy, but there is no one here."
After he finished speaking, Li Rui and Cheng Mingyue were stunned for a moment.
They had studied the information of the Jingyang Academy before, and according to the map drawn by the Department of Abilities, there was a twenty-eight-story tower in the center of the palace, which housed the demons and demons on the Devil's Cry Ridge that they had ambushed.
This tower is the landmark of the school palace, and it is rumored that because of the suppression of evil demons, even if it is dozens of miles away, you can see Haoran righteousness soaring into the sky, and there will not be half a cloud overhead.
"Isn't this place Jingyang Academy? No, that strange wall and gate are fine, and it's not far away from Devil's Cry Ridge. ”
Indeed, everything else can be faked, only the eight hundred miles of Ghost Crying Ridge can't be faked, no matter how awesome the characters are, even if they refute the source of real people, it is impossible to create a ghostly mountain out of thin air.
"Don't worry about it, let's go first and see, you can guess something just by guessing."
Li Rui greeted, and the three of them hurriedly chased in the direction of the young man who opened the door.
At least from the current point of view, the other party has no malicious intent, but because the three of them have something wrong, there is no substance, so they can't be seen by the other party.
The other houses and pavilions in the palace are also in a dilapidated scene.
Not much decay was seen to be exact, just a feeling of little cleaning, and almost no one walked around.
For such a force, although it is inferior to Shenxiao Palace, it can also be regarded as a first-class force of the righteous path, this situation should not occur.
All three of them secretly assessed themselves in their hearts, and at the same time went deeper.
Finally, after several turns, life appeared ahead.
"One, two, hey!"
"One, two, hey!"
Many strong men are shirtless in front, working in full swing.
Surrounded by some wood and stone, hammer hammers, this is a construction site.
"They're fixing something."
The three of them ran closer, only to see that not only were craftsmen contributing, but also many scholars wearing long robes and cloth crowns like the man who opened the door were also on the construction site.
However, they mainly inscribe on some plaques and pillars, and then recite some mantra to offer blessings.
"Hey, you say, what they're fixing can't be. Volta, right? ”
Hearing this, Guan Gui immediately said, "The location is right. If you add a part of the building that should have existed, this is it. ”
Cheng Mingyue said: "I'll take a look." ”
She snapped down the steps to the high point, and when she looked back, she saw that the dilapidated school palace was indeed similar to the description in the materials of the Department of Abilities, except that there were many fewer buildings in the outer circle.
At this time, Li Rui and others also followed, and saw the same scene as her.
There was a conversation between the two behind him, one was the young man who had just opened the door, and the other was about the same age as him, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, a square face, and a more calm look.
"Maybe I heard it wrong, since you opened the door and didn't see anything, then it can't be someone who came to tease us poor scholars, right?"
"It's not impossible, it's just that I felt a little uncomfortable in my heart at the time, I don't know why."
"If you have this to think about, why don't you go and see how they are doing in organizing their library."
"I know, I know, Mr. Cen Da, just take the order."
The man who opened the door left, and the eyes of the three were drawn to the man with thick eyebrows and big eyes.
"What did he call him?"
"Mr. Cen Da?"
"Hmm."
All three were silent.
There is indeed a Mr. Cen Da in Jingyang Academy, that is, the most learned person in the Academy, who is in charge of the head of the Academy, but Chong Xuan said that he has been killed.
"Ah, I see!"
Cheng Mingyue said excitedly, "This place is the real Jingyang Academy, it's just that the spell of the source real person went wrong, and it only allows us to see the illusion of the past!" ”
No sooner had she said the idea than she heard an old voice behind her.
"Little girl, you're right, but not entirely."
"This place is indeed the Jingyang School Palace before Zhongxing, what you see, it is indeed a phantom of the old days, but it is not that the spell of the source real person went wrong, but the old man dragged you in."
The three of them turned around and saw an old man with long beard and long hair standing behind him, wearing a long robe in the style of the school palace, but without a belt or wearing a jade ring, looking like a down-and-out sloppy scholar.
Li Rui stepped forward and arched his hand: "I've seen Mr. Cen Da." ”
Cheng Mingyue's gaze jumped back and forth on the faces of the two: Huh?
The old man smiled and said, "Little brother, how do you know that the old man is Cen Lanjing?" ”
"Guess."
"Hahahaha."
Mr. Cen Da's smile turned into a laugh, "Good, good." ”
He restrained his smile, stroked his hair, and then said with the same straight face: "You don't have to be polite, the old man dragged you into this illusion without discussion, and I won't make amends here first." ”
"Where, where." The three returned the salute.
Li Rui straightened up and said, "Mr. Cen Da, please forgive the juniors for being presumptuous, but it is rumored that you have already encountered an accident, what is going on now?" (End of chapter)
