In the dead of night, the cold wind is bleak, the world is silent, and in the flickering candlelight, Tianwu sits in front of the desk and writes hard, as if he is writing a letter to a friend.

Suddenly, a strange sound sounded in the dark night, and then a colorful viper fell from the pillar and landed impartially on the lampholder.

It swam around the entire lampholder, its blood-red snake tongue stretching and shrinking, playing with the candle flame like a prey.

The candle flame suddenly dimmed, emitting an eerie aura.

Then an unusually tall black shadow appeared inside the room, obscuring all the light and enveloping Tianwu's entire body.

Tianwu seemed to be unconscious, but the speed of writing was faster, but the handwriting began to be distorted.

"Hehe, you're getting bolder and bolder, how dare you not bow down when you see Lone?" the black shadow spoke in a voice like a night owl.

"It's not over, I don't dare to see the driver. Tianwu replied lightly, without the slightest intention of stopping.

"It's really unexpected, you can be so calm when the disaster comes, which is very inconsistent with your usual timid and fearful style. The dark shadow sighed faintly.

Tianwu suddenly sighed and put down the brush in his hand.

At this time, he had finished writing, and it was not until he confirmed that the things that should be explained in the letter had been explained, and Tianwu said: "This may be the death of the gods, and their hearts are also strong." ”

After a pause, he continued: "Anyway, I have to thank you for giving me plenty of time to complete the business at hand, and I have no regrets about dying." ”

"It's good to know, compared to a few other domineering guys, Lone is very benevolent to you. ”

"yes, I don't think so. Tianwu said in a deep voice: "Your so-called benevolence is just based on careful considerations. The reason why you are doing this is just for the sake of that young man surnamed Yin. ”

"Hehe, how can you see that?" said the black shadow leisurely.

"Quite simply, this young man still has value to use. You need him to do something that you can't do on your own, and I just happen to be a fan of that. ”

The black shadow was stunned for a moment and said, "Amazing, I didn't expect you to even see this." ”

Tian Wu said with a teasing expression: "The suicide note has been written, don't you check it?"

"That's your business, Lone has no interest in it. ”

"Isn't that afraid that I will reveal my secrets in the letter?"

The black shadow said coldly: "You definitely don't have the guts, you know very well that once there is information that is unfavorable to Gu leaked out, your precious apprentice will not go to the Netherworld to accompany Houtu, I'm afraid he can't help it." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the room fell silent, and the poisonous snake with the brilliant pattern suddenly opened its mouth and swallowed the wick in one gulp.

The room was suddenly pitch black, plunged into complete darkness, and an indescribable mystery permeated the surroundings, and even the sound of the wind outside seemed to be swallowed up by it into a heart-stopping nothingness.

"If that's the case, then there's no need to talk nonsense between us. Tian Wu stood up slowly, his whole body flashed with golden light, and the dark room immediately became as bright as day, but it could not illuminate the black shadow.

At this time, the poisonous snake suddenly turned into a wisp of black smoke, swimming in all directions like a living thing, and when the black smoke occupied all the space in the house, an extremely powerful pressure suddenly appeared, attacking Tianwu.

And at the same moment, Tian Wu's body bowed, and instantly turned into a golden arrow, unexpectedly avoiding this seemingly invulnerable attack.

Immediately after, Tian Wu attacked in front of the black shadow and stabbed into the other party's body.

The next moment, Tianwu's entire body was submerged in the black shadow, but he couldn't penetrate it and reappear in the shadow.

The black shadow remained motionless, and instantly petrified into a lifeless statue.

The cold moon outside the window was quietly hidden by dark clouds, and there was no light at all between the heavens and the earth.

There was silence for a few moments before the shadow moved, ghostly and ghostly, with a demonic shrill laugh coming out of its mouth.

"Hey, hey, hey...... If you really have you, you can actually peek through the heavens and see that Lone is not here with his true body!"

A pair of demonic eyes flashed from under the black shadow's forehead, the charm gusted, the candle flame was rekindled, and the strange shadow projected on the wall kept changing shapes.

"Forget it, it's a shame to kill a smart guy like you. ”

The black smoke that filled the room gradually dissipated, and a strange sound faintly sounded in the silence, like a night ghost wailing in the moonlight.

When the heart-rending sound was gone, the shadow seemed to melt into the air.

......

The darkness passed, the dawn gradually came, and the originally gray and strange Situ Mansion was gradually brightened under the sunlight.

Yin Tiancheng and Qianye Hua came to the inner hall in a hurry, but saw that the door was hidden and there was no movement in the room.

"My lord, my lord......" Qian Yehua called a few times in a row, but he couldn't get any response, and he suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart.

"Brother Yehua, don't call it, the seniors may not be in the mansion. The sharp-eyed Yin Tiancheng picked up the letter on the desk and looked at it, his eyebrows quietly tightening.

"Didn't the Lord say that he was going to meet us today, and he couldn't go out at this time?"

"Nothing is impossible, my predecessor is probably no longer in the Lost Continent now. Yin Tiancheng sighed and handed the letter to Qian Yehua.

After reading the contents of the letter, Qian Yehua's hands trembled, and he shouted in a lost voice: "This is impossible, it is impossible! The passage has been closed, and it is impossible for adults to return to the world!"

"Maybe the senior has his own way to get out, but we don't know. Yin Tiancheng was stunned, at this time, he had already seen something strange from the handwriting in the letter.

The first half of the letter is neatly written, but many of the words in the second half are very sloppy, and some of the handwriting is intermittent, giving people the feeling that Tianwu at that time seemed to be in a state of panic, so that he could not even hold the pen steady.

This immediately made Yin Tiancheng realize that halfway through the letter, Tianwu was disturbed by some mysterious and unknown factor.

It is likely that someone wanted to harm Tianwu at that time, but it may also be threatening him, but the real situation is probably only clear to the person concerned.

After thinking for a moment, Yin Tiancheng realized that no matter what the situation was, Tianwu had finally handled this matter safely, otherwise he would not have had the opportunity to finish writing this farewell letter.

Because it was speculation, Yin Tiancheng didn't dare to confide in Qian Yehua, but said: "It seems that it is meaningless for me to stay here, and the next arrangement will be Brother Lao Yehua." ”

Qian Yehua then remembered that Tianwu had instructed him to take Yin Tiancheng to Hanging City in the letter, he frowned slightly, and said: "The damage of Shatang Shenzhou is seriously difficult to repair, and I don't know what happened to the adults?"

Yin Tiancheng replied confidently: "Since the senior mentioned this matter in the letter, it must have been arranged a long time ago. ”

"Then let's go check it out. ”

Qian Yehua took Yin Tiancheng through the back hall and went to the remote courtyard, seeing that the general guarding the door was blocking him from entering, Qian Yehua hurriedly handed the letter to him.

After seeing the familiar handwriting, the monster general hurriedly said sorry to Qian Yehua, and then personally took them into the courtyard to check the condition of Shatang Shenzhou.

As soon as he saw that the Shatang Shenzhou was as new as ever, the demon general's eyes widened, and he said incredulously: "How is this possible! When the general inspected it at the end of the morning yesterday, it was still in tatters, how could it be completely repaired after one night?"

Then he suddenly realized: "It must have been when Lord Situ came yesterday afternoon and used his divine power to repair it. ”

Qian Yehua stood quietly on the edge of Shatang Shenzhou, tears flashing in his eyes, and at this time, he believed that Tianwu Zhen had left the Lost Continent, and I was afraid that there would be no chance to meet him in the future.

Yin Tiancheng silently stayed by the side, until Qian Yehua's mood was completely calm, and then he spoke, "When are we going to leave for Hanging City?"

"Without further ado, let's go now. Qianyehua invited Yin Tiancheng to sit in the cabin, and then explained a few words to the demon general standing aside.

After hearing this, the monster general hurriedly arranged for four burly demon soldiers to stand in a corner, and easily lifted the Shatang Shenzhou up.

In an instant, a demon mist emerged from the feet of the demon soldiers, and they rose into the air, flying into the air with this small boat, and Qianyehua also stepped on the white clouds and left Tianwu's mansion after him.

The group shuttled through the clouds and mist, the towering mountains were getting closer and closer in their eyes, and Yin Tiancheng could already see the distant scenery blocked by the mountains.

It's just that it's a gray space, and there is no object in it, as if behind the mountains is the edge of the universe, and if you take a step forward, you will be left with chaos and nothingness, and everything will return to the state before the opening of the world.

Just when Yin Tiancheng was shocked, they had already crossed all the mountains, and then they heard the sound of rushing water, and as far as the eye could see, they were covered by a thick white fog, and they couldn't see anything from a few feet away.

Yin Tiancheng was about to open his mouth, but the monsters had lowered their bodies and stopped at a river that crossed the heavens and the earth.

At this time, Yin Tiancheng discovered that the white mist that permeated the heavens and the earth all rose from the river, covering the sky and the sun, enveloping everything in the world, and also covering up all the unknown truths.

"Yin Gongzi, this is the legendary Broken Dream River. Qian Yehua said lightly, and then ordered the demon soldiers to put the Shatang Shenzhou into the water.

Seeing these demon soldiers carefully pushing the Shenzhou into the water, while trying to avoid the river water contaminating his body, Yin Tiancheng couldn't help but play with it, bent down to pick up a dead branch covered with mud, and threw it into the water in front of him.

I heard a "gurgling" sound, and the tiny dead branches splashed on the surface of the water like stones, and then sank into the river without a trace.

"Sure enough, the goose feathers can't float, and the reed flowers are sinking at the bottom. Seeing this situation, Yin Tiancheng couldn't help but sigh, Fang knew that the legend of the Broken Dream River was not exaggerated at all.

After the demon soldiers placed the boat on the water, they said goodbye to the demon general, but Qian Yehua stayed, he smiled and said to Yin Tiancheng: "This is going to the Hanging City, you are not familiar with the place, so let me accompany you for a ride." ”

"Thank you Brother Yehua for your help, Yin is grateful. Yin Tiancheng hurriedly bowed his hand to express his gratitude.

A man and a demon got on the boat, and Qian Yehua stood at the bow of the boat and stretched out his oars, rowing towards the opposite shore that was not in sight.

Along the way, the space around the boat was full of white mist, and nothing could be seen clearly beyond the rest of the boat, except when I looked up, I could vaguely see the bright sun hanging in the sky like a full moon.

The dim sunlight shone down through the thick fog, and it was even paler than the moonlight, and the dense fog in front of him was like a hazy veil of smoke, and like a fluttering white silk, sometimes gathering and forming, sometimes scattering into thousands of wisps.

There was almost no movement around, except for the sound of water when the oars slid across the water, all that could be heard was the sound of his own breathing and heartbeat, at this moment Yin Tiancheng was sitting on the boat, feeling the invisible cold wind blowing on his face, the cold seeped into the bone marrow, and he couldn't help but sneeze a few times one after another.

Wrapped in the mist, the boat sailed for several hours and finally docked, and Qian Yehua immediately invited Yin Tiancheng to go ashore, and then took out a rocket from his arms, ignited it and threw it into the air.

A colorful firework suddenly bloomed in the fog, hazy and unreal, and then suddenly extinguished in the thick fog.

Before Yin Tiancheng could open his mouth to ask, he was surprised to see dozens of lights flashing in front of him, these lights turned out to be green, and they were quietly floating towards him at this moment.

Suddenly, there was an indescribable rich demonic aura, and as the light approached, it became more and more pungent and unpleasant.

Yin Tiancheng was immediately taken aback, and hurriedly pulled out the Golden Rainbow Sword and waited.

Qian Yehua smiled and signaled him not to be nervous, and said softly, "They are just the post guards who came to pick us up from the Hanging City. ”

Sure enough, after these towering tree-like monsters appeared in front of them, they turned out to be even more nervous than Yin Tiancheng, and they all discussed: "It's strange, there will be humans coming to us!"

"You don't need to be nervous, this young man was ordered by Lord Situ to go to the capital to meet His Majesty. ”

"I see, I said how dare a human race come to us, it turned out that the Great Elder personally accompanied him. A leader-like monster replied with a smile, and then asked a few of his subordinates to lift the Shatang Shenzhou up, and he didn't know where it went.

A few more monsters with a few feet of stature walked out of the fog, followed by a few snow-white horses, Qian Yehua and the leader exchanged a few words, then beckoned Yin Tiancheng to ride on the horses, asked those monsters to lead the way in front, and the group walked away.

Along the way, the fog became lighter and lighter, and the terrain became more and more open, and when the fog finally disappeared completely, Yin Tiancheng found himself on the official road.

Looking up, there was a towering city in front of him, and the flags were fluttering on the city, Yin Tiancheng couldn't help but look back and ask: "What a magnificent city, this should be the legendary hanging city, right?"

"Exactly. Qian Yehua nodded slightly, and after saying goodbye to those leading monsters, he took Yin Tiancheng towards this tall and majestic demon city.
