The sun sets, and the slanting sun is veined. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The tall and straight city walls on all sides enclose a space that occupies a circle of 20 miles, and on the undulating black city walls, the green tile glass shines brightly under the sunset.
Lu Bei, Song Yun, Gongsun Wu and his wife, and the Ji brothers and sisters walked slowly on the main road of Baining City, which was paved with white marble.
On both sides of the road are patches of barren meadows, and the starry sky fills the endless wasteland.
Lu Beixin said: "In the Baiyujing Cave Heaven World, it is different from the solar terms outside. ”
Baining City is not so much a city as an abandoned besieged city.
However, since a month ago, thousands of warriors from the rivers and lakes frantically poured into the city and built some simple houses and wooden buildings as temporary shelters. Bai Ning City gradually gained some popularity and noise.
Song Yun led the way in front of him, and at the same time explained the rules of this Fang Dongtian World to a few people behind him.
In the White Jade Cave Heaven World, it is said that people can only enter it twice in their lifetime, and the first time they can stay here for a month.
The second time you enter, you can stay for ten days, and when the deadline expires, you will be sent out by the power of the illusion here.
Speaking of this, Song Yun's elegant face showed a touch of amazement and said: "This should be the last time Song Mou enters, whether he can set foot in the immortal road in this life, success or failure is in one fell swoop." ”
Gongsun Wu took over the conversation and said, "Three months ago, Humble Jing and I also came here once. However, because I don't know the situation in the second city, I just stay in the periphery. ”
Strictly speaking, when Bai Yujing descended from the sky and suppressed Changyang Mountain, all the warriors in the land of Bashu had already entered it to get a glimpse.
It's just that most of the people stopped at Baining City, and thousands of martial artists poured in, and how many heavenly and earthly treasures were not enough to divide up.
Therefore, the fight between warriors has also become commonplace. is still a martial artist who can't go to the stack, but in fact, he is just unwilling.
Of course, there are some people who are not afraid of death who enter Chixiao City to find opportunities, but in Chixiao City, there are crises everywhere, and those who enter are lucky to survive, but they also have palpitations and get nothing.
In Bai Ning City, Song Yun led everyone into a shop like an old horse trying his way, which did not occupy a large area and looked a little shabby.
Everyone stepped into it, and an old man with mouse whiskers under his jaw and gray hair was holding an abacus behind the counter, flipping through a ledger, and bowing his head to dial it.
Song Yun walked to the counter with his head held high, took out a famous edict in his arms, and put it on the counter, the old man looked up at the famous edict and nodded to Song Yun.
Respectfully asked, "It turned out to be Mr. Song, is there anything you want to buy?"
Song Yun smiled and asked, "Uncle, bring me some antidote pills and medicinal powder to repel snakes, insects and ants." ”
"Mr. Song, wait a minute, I'll get it. The old man turned around and went to the back of the counter to fetch it.
"By the way, this friend of mine still lacks a sword, you can take some weapons and let him choose. Song Yun nodded at Lu Bei and added to the old man.
After a while, the old man took out a small package, which contained large and small bottles, which seemed to contain powder and the like.
Song Yun took the package, checked it, put it away carefully, and then turned around and explained to the Lu Bei and Ji brothers and sisters not far away: "This thing is sleeping in the wild and dealing with insects and ants, it is quite useful, let's buy some, so we can be prepared." ”
At this time, the old man took out a few more swords, which looked like sharp blades forged from stainless steel.
Lu Bei took a blue-blue scabbard, pulled out the sword, found that the sword body was faint, and flicked the blade of the sword with his fingers, thinking it was not bad.
He immediately put away his sword, and was about to reach into his bosom and take out the silver taels to pay the bill.
Song Yun waved his hand to stop it: "The little brother's blade was destroyed, and it was Song's fault, but it was not easy for the little brother to pay for this money." ”
When Lu Bei heard this, he was not hypocritical and gave up.
At this time, Ji Ling also told his sister Ji Wei to let her stay in Baining City and wait quietly for the return of several of them.
Although Ji Wei wanted to follow in her heart, she also knew that her martial arts could only drag everyone down, so she had to agree unhappily.
A group of five people walked out of this shop, turned around and walked towards the outside of Bai Ning City.
Because of the entrance of the second city, Chixiao City is in a hidden valley five miles away from Baining City, everyone wants to go to Chixiao City quickly, so they will not delay time here.
The five of them were all martial arts practitioners, and their strength was long, and after a while, they came to a quiet valley.
The entrance to the valley is extremely narrow, like the mouth of a gourd, and there are two humanoid statues made of black stone.
The two statues are holding hands, kneeling, black as ink, tall and majestic. The bare arms on the black stone armor are muscular, as if they were made of gold poured over copper.
A pair of stone eyes are dark and indifferent, giving people a sense of life.
The five of them stood a few feet away from the statue, and Song Yun explained: "These two statues are just dead things, as if they are guarding the entrance. ”
Everyone passed by the statue, Lu Bei's heart moved, and he looked back and took a deep look, but he couldn't grasp the clue after all, so he had to keep up with the pace of the people in front of him.
And when a few people left, the dark stone eyes of the two stone statues, a blood-red light flashed.
In the valley, there is no cave.
Countless blades were abandoned on the ground, spear banners were also planted upside down on the ground, a gust of mountain wind blew, and Lu Bei clearly saw that those blades were blown up like dust.
Gongsun Wu said with emotion: "This place should be an ancient battlefield, and these blades and armor must have weathered to this point after a long time. ”
Along the way, Lu Bei and Ji Ling were both shocked, and the skeletons of horses as tall as a horse, like charred black clubs, stood disorderly in the valley.
Song Yun stepped on a piece of armor under his feet, and explained: "According to the rumors of Shudi, these war horses are all heavenly horses, and they fell in a great battle in ancient times, and I don't know if it's true or not. ”
Lu Bei sighed and said: "To be able to maintain this majestic posture for so many years after death, it is not a lie to say that it is a heavenly horse." ”
Several people were silent all the way to an empty place, which was a huge altar more than ten zhang high.
In the middle of the altar stands silently, the stele is square, straight and steep, immeasurably high, and the top of the stele reaches into the sky. The body of the monument is as clear as jade, and under the reflection of the glow, there is a mysterious halo flowing.
The five of them walked up the stairs to the center of the altar.
Song Yun said excitedly: "Even though it's not the first time I've seen this stone tablet, every time I see it, I feel shocked. ”
Lu Bei also looked at this stone stele, there is no word on the stele, white as jade, if it is newly established, but it gives people a sense of vicissitudes.
The indescribable shock is hard to describe.
Just like ordinary people see the majestic mountains, the vast sea, the vast starry sky, and the deep universe, at a glance, their hearts and minds are invested, and they have their own humble and insignificant, like dust emotions surging into their hearts.
Song Yun said in a deep voice at this time: "Everyone, touch this stone tablet with your palm, and you can enter the second city, Chixiao City, and Song has taken the first step." ”
As he spoke, he took the first step and put his palm on the stone tablet, and a burst of white streamer emanated from the jade tablet, enveloping Song Yun's figure.
Seeing this, Gongsun Wu and his wife did not delay, holding hands, each putting their palms on the stone tablet, and also entered Chixiao City with the two streamers.
Ji Ling's calm face became more solemn, he looked back and nodded to Lu Bei, stepped forward, acted according to the law, and was quickly led by a streamer.
Only Lu Bei's eyes flickered, and finally his gaze turned firm, and he slowly stretched out a warm jade palm and put it on the white jade tablet, a white pillar of light, shook twice, and seemed to be a little hesitant, but in the end it still swallowed Lu Bei's figure.
"Twelve cities on the fifth floor, the ...... of the five emperors" An imperceptible voice in the valley was blown away by the wind.
