Chapter 182: The Firmament
The moment the middle-aged man appeared, whether it was Mu Xi or Ouyang Ke, both of them showed extremely vigilant looks on their faces.
But then both of them discovered that the person who came turned out to be an ordinary person with no talent fluctuations, and this discovery suddenly made the vigilance in their hearts thicker.
As an ordinary person, it would have been a very strange thing to be able to go deep into the Lost Swamp.
Only Su Wen, after a moment of shock, took the initiative to meet him, bowed slightly and said, "Sir." ”
So the scene became even more extraordinary.
How could a Gongsheng student be so polite to an ordinary person? And it was Su Wen, who had the name of a saint talent? Such a situation was simply unbelievable!
However, Mu Xi was the first to react, because she, like Su Wen that day, recognized the Tianji Feather in the other party's hand!
What's more, she knows who the owner of Tianji Yu is!
So with a strong shock on her face, she asked tentatively, "Mr. Xun?"
In Mu Xi's cognition, in the entire Sacred Word Continent, there is only one person who can stand above the literary position as a mortal, and that person is called Xunchen, who is a legendary figure who has been crisscrossing the continent for decades.
There are many legends about this person, some people say that he is a Terran military advisor who has no last resort, and it is under his leadership that the Terran can fight against the demon clan for decades.
Some people also say that he is the richest of the ten kingdoms of the human race, because this person's most enthusiastic thing is not to practice, but to find the relics left by the powerful people of all generations. The accumulated belongings were enough to smash a demi-saint powerhouse to death.
There are also people who say that this person is the real author who compiled the "Wenbao Hundred Generals", and there is no Wenbao in the world that he has not seen. It is even rumored that he has in his hands the head of the legendary high-grade cultural treasure - the inextinguishable green lantern.
These rumors have never been confirmed, but at least they show that this person is by no means a figure to be underestimated!
The middle-aged man heard Mu Xi's title, and there was no arrogance on his face, he owed slightly, and said with a smile: "Eldest Lady." It is under that. ”
Su Wen's face was full of bitterness, he didn't expect that he would meet the only creditor in his life here. I couldn't help but say helplessly: "I'm sorry, I don't have that much silver to pay back to you right now." ”
Xunchen feather fan waved lightly and said with a smile: "It's okay, there is no silver." It can be compensated with something else. ”
Su Wen scratched his head a little embarrassed. Cautiously asked, "I wonder what the gentleman has taken a fancy to me?"
Xunchen shook his head: "It's not on you, but you will definitely be able to see it on this trip, I hope you can bring it to me." ”
Su Wen was stunned for a moment, did Xun Chen want him to go into the Lost Swamp to find something? In this way, it seemed to be simpler, so he immediately responded and said respectfully: "I don't know what you need me to find?"
"It's a plant. I think you've heard of it, it's called Pujia. ”
"Pu Jia?" said Xun Chen. Of course, Su Wen had heard these two words, and he was by no means unfamiliar with them!
The leaves are pale, and the white dew is frost. The so-called Yi people, on the water side, follow it, and the road is long and obstructive. Tracing from it, it is like being in the middle of the water.
This is the famous article in the "Book of Songs", from the Qin Feng in the fifteen countries, "Pu Jia"!
However, shouldn't the word "pampa" in this refer only to reeds in general? Could it be that on the Continent of the Holy Words, there really is such a plant as pamper?
For Su Wen's doubts, Xunchen had expected it, and with a faint smile on his face, he said, "Follow me." ”
Saying that, Xun Chen walked back to the shadows in the forest, Su Wen hesitated slightly, then turned back and exchanged a look with Mu Xi, and followed immediately.
After Su Wen left, Ouyang Ke finally broke the silence and asked suspiciously, "Mr. Xun?"
Mu Xi nodded: "I'm afraid so." ”
After getting Mu Xi's affirmation, Ouyang Ke's eyes became a little heavier.
"How could Su Wen recognize Mr. Xun?"
It's no wonder that Ouyang Ke has such doubts, as a member of the Sage family, he only imagines legendary figures like Xun Chen, how can Su Wen know such a big person?
At this moment, Ouyang Ke's heart finally rose with a feeling as absurd as Mu Xi.
This Su Wen is really incomprehensible......
At the same time, Su Wen had already followed Xunchen to the other side, only to hear Xunchen say softly: "Since you know Pujia, you must be familiar with the Book of Songs." ”
Su Wen nodded, waiting for the other party's follow-up.
The next moment, Xun Chen took out a thick book from his arms, and then slowly opened it, Su Wen stretched his neck to look, and found that the book did not have a name, but there were many pictures and words in it, with his memory, but in an instant, he remembered the names of several of the items.
So he couldn't help but widen his eyes.
Tie Yi, Bai Zhou, Oriental Day, and, the two words written at the top of the first page: Guan Ju!
These are all from the names of the articles in the Book of Songs!
What does that mean!
Soon, Xun Chen turned to the middle page of the book, on which were written two large ink-colored characters - Pujia.
Below the word Pujia, there is also an ink painting, which seems to be some kind of aquatic plant, Xunchen stretched out his hand to point to the pattern, and said: "This is Pujia." ”
Su Wen was a little stunned for a while.
But then, he heard a meaningful warning from Xunchen's mouth.
"I know that you are going to look for the Demon Relics on this trip, but that kind of place is not something that the three of you can enter, and the so-called Demon Relics are not something you can get your hands on now, so remember, after you find the Purple Tree, you must not go any further, but leave immediately and hand over this object to me. ”
Su Wen froze and was noncommittal to Xunchen's words, but couldn't help but ask: "I want to ask, what is the relationship between this book in your hand and the Book of Songs?"
Xunchen smiled slightly, and the next moment, a wooden bird jumped out of his arms and jumped onto his shoulder.
"As you can see, this is Guan Ju. ”
The moment Su Wen saw the wooden bird, a flash of surprise suddenly flashed in his eyes, and then, he immediately thought of a certain possibility, to be precise, he thought of a certain book!
How can it be!
However, Xunchen didn't give Su Wen much time to ask, he made a light move, and the wooden bird returned to his arms, and then he put away the book in his hand, and said with a smile: "Remember to find the Pujia, collect fifty plants, and when you come out, I will come to you again." ”
After speaking, the Tianji Yu in Xunchen's hand swung slightly, turned around and left, without the slightest drag.
Su Wen stood on the spot for a while, until he returned to Mu Xi and Ouyang Ke, he was still in a trance, because he faintly discovered the biggest secret on Xun Chen's body!
"Su Wen, Su Wen!"
Mu Xi's voice brought him back to his senses, and he immediately looked at the two of them blankly.
"How did you come to know Mr. Shun?"
Listening to Mu Xi's question, Su Wen just shook his head lightly and said, "It's just a coincidence." Speaking of this, Su Wen couldn't help frowning again, because he suddenly thought of the scene where he and Xunchen met for the first time.
The other party sued him, not because he saw Su Wen's potential, but because he believed in the banker's vision?
So, who is the dealer in Xunchen's mouth? What does this have to do with himself?
Just as Mu Xi and Ouyang Ke were puzzled, how could Su Wen be able to win the favor of legends like Xun Chen? Among them, there must be some reasons that he didn't know yet......
Seeing that Su Wen refused to explain, Mu Xi naturally did not force it, but after this incident, it was obvious that Ouyang Ke was a little more wary of the two.
In this somewhat strange atmosphere, the three of them quickly left the confines of the land and came to the Zedi.
After entering the Zedi, the danger of the demon beast obviously increased by several points, and in the deepest place, the flowing water even sank into everyone's knees, and the water was very turbid, and it was impossible to see if there was some kind of demon beast lurking below.
Fortunately, none of the three are good at it, and along the way, although they were also attacked by a group of short crocodile beasts, they were also thrilling with the continuous outbursts of the three talents.
After gradually going deeper into the swamp, Su Wen finally understood where the name of "lost" in this swamp came from.
Deep in the swamps, the eyes and everywhere are clumps of cypress trees, like a huge labyrinth, making it difficult to identify the direction, all the way to the east, after a full two-day trek, Su Wen still has not been able to see the shadow of the so-called "Pujia", but everyone can clearly feel that the demon beasts encountered along the road have become more and more powerful.
They even encountered a mid-level coral snake whose strength was comparable to that of the Imperial Book, if it weren't for the fact that all three of them were pressed by heavy treasures, coupled with their own extraordinary strength, they might have been wiped out.
But Rao is like this, this coral snake also made everyone embarrassed, and even made Ouyang Ke lose a page of puppet paper.
Su Wen was even more convinced that Xun Chen was by no means alarmist, with their current strength, they wanted to covet the so-called demon relics, and they were really too self-conscious.
The situation finally became more serious at noon on the third day.
Because this time, in addition to a mid-level coral snake, there was also an even more dangerous poisonous toad beast that stopped in front of the three of them!
With three against two, and against two mid-level demon beasts, for Su Wen and the others, there is almost no chance of winning!
=======================================
PS: Looking back at some of the plots I wrote recently, I found that it was a bit scummy, is it really because I wrote it too fast...... So this chapter was decisively written a lot slower, and there was only one change today, the old rules, and the third watch would make up for it tomorrow, and the situation would come out at the beginning of the month, and Mo Yu was powerless to ask the sky...... (To be continued......)
