Chapter 363: Clever Design
Yang Luochen was a little worried in his heart, and he didn't know what to worry about, and the voice of the Great Elder also sounded, "What do you say to the people below, there are still prohibitions set around"
Yang Luochen thought about his words and returned: "They are my old friends, tell me about the situation of the Yang family, I am also afraid that the enemy will worry about it, and I don't want to expose the location of the Yang family, so Qianluan set a ban."
The Great Elder smiled and returned: "You are really careful, but you should be, although your Yang family has a very high prestige in the Yun Kingdom, there are also many enemies."
Emperor Qianluan on the side stared at Yang Luochen and asked with a smile, "What did you call me just now?"
Yang Luochen was stunned for a moment, he was in a hurry just now, he patronized and made up lies, and forgot to call her full name for a while, feeling a little ambiguous.
Yang Luochen hurriedly coughed and said, "Qianluan, weren't you an Oiran at the beginning?"
Emperor Qianluan pouted and returned: "Someone still came to worship with me at the beginning, is that true?"
Yang Luochen was speechless for a while, and in order to alleviate the embarrassment, he quickly changed the topic and asked, "What is the Great Elder looking for us?"
Elder Manda smiled and said, "It's nothing, it's just that the King of Zhenbei asked me to invite you, and now that the defense has ended, let you go and see if there is anything missing."
Yang Luochen didn't believe his ears, Di Mang actually asked Elder Manda to invite him, no matter how he thought about it, he felt that this matter was unusual.
Seeing Yang Luochen standing there, Elder Manda said with a smile: "Haha, that's what I mean, you know about the Demon Capital, and you have to let you go and see it in person to rest assured, so I can rest assured that I can use the message of the King of Zhenbei."
The doubts in Yang Luochen's heart disappeared, and the two of them also left the restaurant with Elder Manda, came to Wangmo City, and began to patrol everywhere.
The entire Wangmo City is guarded with soldiers, and the original people are also ready to participate in the battle at any time in accordance with the edicts issued by Di Mang, and the Wangmo City is now really under martial law in the whole city.
Yang Luochen didn't see anything wrong, so he followed Elder Manda through the wide staircase and came to the black cliff below.
It was also a soldier with full names, and more than a thousand soldiers were guarding both sides, and the people in the tall buildings on both sides were also talking quietly, not daring to make a loud noise.
After that, it came to the outside of the city, and the 600,000 troops had all moved into the barbarian territory, and soldiers could be seen practicing everywhere, and the northernmost part of the entire gale had entered a state of battle.
Yang Luochen followed Manda to inspect for a day, and did not find any omissions, but felt that the defense of Di Mang was indeed possible, as long as the battle started, the 600,000 army could quickly participate in the battle.
After that, the three of them returned to the Black Cliff, walked on the giant staircase looking back at the Demon City, and when they arrived at the platform in the middle, Yang Luochen suddenly remembered Miao Qian's words.
Looking at the dark place directly in front of him, he asked, "Great Elder, you told me before that the north of this staircase is a bottomless abyss, so how can the people of the Black Cliff enter the Demon Capital through it?"
Emperor Qianluan curiously walked towards the stairs due north, there was no road after ten steps, there was only a deep pit three zhang wide, and he couldn't see the low at all, and shouted in surprise: "Hey, it's really, what's the use of this pit?"
The Great Elder slowly returned: "This pit is a place to dispose of the corpses of soldiers killed in battle, and I don't know what is underneath, let alone how deep it is. As for how to get there, you come with me."
Elder Manda said as he walked towards the Black Cliff, returned to the front of the giant staircase, and then added twenty barbarian warriors and said to them, "Open the door"
The twenty barbarian warriors stood side by side in front of the staircase, just blocking the staircase completely, only to see them hold their hands on the stairs at the same time, and at the same time, the huge staircase began to move towards the north, and a heavy friction sound sounded inside the black cliff.
As if they had been summoned by something, the Black Cliff aborigines hurriedly picked up their weapons and ran towards the stairs, and the voice of the Great Elder also sounded, "Don't be nervous, I'm just going to show General Zuo Wei how to open the gate."
One of them was discouraged and left. Yang Luochen looked at the friction marks left on the ground, and was a little surprised, it turned out that this staircase was not only leading to the Demon City above, but also the key to open the door to the Demon Capital.
As the stairs continued to move, there was a gap in the originally dark space in front of them, and a huge door slowly opened along the stairs to the bottom of the door.
Emperor Qianluan exclaimed: "It turns out that this staircase is used to cover the giant pit, or the key to open the door, this design is a bit novel, who came up with it?"
The Great Elder did not answer Emperor Qianluan's words, with a heavy crash, the gate was completely opened, and the twenty barbarian warriors stood on both sides, and the Great Elder took Yang Luochen and them to the door.
In front of you is the desert leading to the direction of the Demon Capital, and there are still many lost weapons on the ground, and the wide field of vision can see everything in the Demon Capital, but it also exposes the entire gate, and the pros and cons account for half.
Yang Luochen looked back, after the stairs were moved, there should have been a gap in the original leading to the Demon City, causing the people above the Demon City to not be able to get down.
Yang Luochen thought wrongly, as the stairs moved, the left and right stairs leading to the top did not change, but six pillars appeared under the stairs, three were very thick, and only three people like Yang Luochen could hold them, and three were very thin, and people like Yang Luochen could hold them alone.
Yang Luochen looked at the twelve pillars added up to the left and right, and said, "Presumably, the people above slid down through those twelve beads, right?"
Elder Manda nodded and returned: "That's right, you can only go down, not up, it can also be said that you can only advance, not retreat, this is the rule of Wangmo City." ”
Yang Luochen said slowly: "One blow, then decline, three and exhaustion." I hope that the Demon City can stand for thousands of years, and I am afraid it is also because of this rule."
Emperor Qianluan couldn't understand what they were saying, but asked curiously: "Great Elder, who designed this Wangmo City, it's so fun."
Elder Manda smiled and replied: "It was designed by the White Cloud Sect, and the giant pit appeared when it was built, and it couldn't be filled by all kinds of methods, so the method of moving the stairs was used."
Yang Luochen was curious about the huge pit below, because Miao Qian had just said that there was something very interesting under this Demon City, and asked, "Great Elder, do you know how this pit appeared?"
Elder Manda shook his head and returned: "I don't know, when this city was built, my father was the Great Elder, and it was the Baiyun Sect who presided over the construction, and the barbarians were just helping, and I wasn't born at that time."
Yang Luochen is becoming more and more curious about the giant pit below, he is worried that the situation below is the same as that of the Demon Palace, if this is the case, I am afraid that this Demon City will not need to be guarded, the destructive power of the strange branches is very strong.
If Tianheng's last hole cards are those strange branches, then this Demon City is useless, and I am afraid that we must be prepared to retreat.
Yang Luochen pondered, but he didn't tell Manda that he wanted to go down and have a look, what he didn't know was that he had begun to believe Miao Qian's words, and he was unconsciously a little wary of Elder Manda.
Suddenly, Elder Manda said to the barbarian warriors, "Okay, hard work, close the door."
The twenty barbarian warriors took out a huge rope from their bodies, broke a hook, stuck on the stairs, and began to pull back with all their might, and soon the stairs returned to their original state, and the gate was closed.
Yang Luochen walked to the top of the stairs and found that there was a bulge on the fifth step, forming a groove, which was just used to catch the hook on the rope.
Yang Luochen also admired in his heart: "This design is novel, and I don't know how the Master of the White Cloud Sect came up with it."
The three of them returned to the main hall and drank a few cups of tea in their spare time, and then Yang Luochen returned to the restaurant, and Emperor Qianluan came with Yang Luochen as if he had nowhere to go.
As soon as he entered the room, Di Qianluan smiled and said, "Hahaha, it seems that the Phantom Spirit Ji didn't lie to us, there is really something very interesting down here."
Yang Luochen was stunned for a moment and asked, "Do you think the interesting thing she said is the staircase?"
"Isn't it? You think it's that pit, it's very deep, and my divine consciousness can't spread to the bottom at all, at least a hundred feet."
Di Qianluan said and went directly to the bed, but Yang Luochen was still thinking about the pit, and his intuition told him that Miao Qian was not talking about the stairs, but the things under the pit.
Until late at night, Di Qianluan fell asleep in bed unconsciously, Yang Luochen planned to secretly go down to the pit to have a look, and just about to open the door, Di Qianluan's voice sounded, "It seems that you still want to go down and have a look"
Yang Luochen closed the door again, looked at Di Qianluan, who was already sitting on the bed, and said: "I want to find out what is in that pit, if it is the same as the underground of the Demon Palace, then we will give up looking at the Demon City as soon as possible."
Emperor Qianluan sighed and said: "Alas, I told you that you don't believe it either, I can't feel the demonic energy in it at all, you must know that my divine consciousness interests are spreading, and I can't see how deep the pit is."
"Maybe it was accidentally made when the city was built, or it existed in the first place, but it was just hidden under the snowy mountains"
Yang Luochen shook his head and returned: "No, if that pit existed in the first place, the barbarians would have fallen into it a long time ago, you must know that at that time, the sand and stones were all over the sky, and it was impossible to see if there was such a huge pit."
"I saw it from the barbarian oracle of the Great Elder, when the barbarians came, it was basically flat ground, this pit obviously appeared later, it may have been made by the Baiyun Sect, there may be other reasons, I must make it clear, I can't treat the lives of 600,000 soldiers as child's play"
Emperor Qianluan sighed, came to Yang Luochen's side, and said, "Alas, let's go, what are you waiting for?"
Yang Luochen hesitated and said, "I'll go alone, if something happens to you, I can't explain to the emperor's family."
Di Qianluan took Yang Luochen's hand and walked towards the door, saying as he walked: "Don't worry, my cultivation is higher than yours, I can protect you." Besides, you're much more important than me, and I can't let you have anything to do. ”
Yang Luochen couldn't resist her, and the two took advantage of the darkness to come to the edge of the stairs, but there were two soldiers guarding there, and Yang Luochen couldn't sneak in, so he could only take a look and then take Di Qianluan to stroll.
Emperor Qianluan asked in a low voice, "Someone is watching, what should I do?"
Yang Luochen thought about it, found a place where there was no one, took out the box that Miao Qian gave him, painted the black mud on his face, and also painted it on Emperor Qianluan, and then used the demonic energy of the phantom spirit bead to change his appearance, and the two of them became ordinary people.
Di Qianluan asked curiously, Yang Luochen told her the source of the things, but what caused a burst of disgust.
Yang Luochen didn't bother to pay attention to her complaints, stole two sets of armor to put on, and the two swaggered to the top of the staircase, saying that it was a change of guard.
The two soldiers were stunned at first, but thinking that the place they were guarding was dark and damp, there was a huge pit behind it, and they didn't bother to ask if it was true or not, since someone came to change it, they went back to sleep without hesitation.
Emperor Qianluan whispered: "It's so easy to deceive, if we are slender, then we will have it."
Yang Luochen didn't know anything about this at all, and when he saw it, he hurried to the stairs at the edge of the pit, and released his divine sense to check, it was really bottomless.
Mu Ye's voice suddenly sounded, "Boy, if there is a sea of blood in Xuanwu below, you will go down and look for death."
Yang Luochen returned in the sea of knowledge: "Master Mu, I just suspect it, so I want to confirm it, if it is really a sea of blood below, then leave this place as soon as possible, otherwise it will fill Xuanwu's stomach in vain."
Mu Ye was silent for a while, and suddenly said: "There is something strange down here, boy, it seems that this Demon City is not as simple as it seems, that Demon Cultivator is right, there is indeed something hidden down here"
