Chapter 19: The City of Cages

Qin Ke'er said suddenly: "If you really aim to prevent people from entering here, then there must be people who leave here after being defeated by you, and there are not a few. But why are the chances of survival unusually low? ”

Xin Zhao looked solemn and said, "That's because the Thousand Nest Divine Stone doesn't allow people to leave!"

"What, this artifact still has its own consciousness?" the three of them were surprised again.

Xin Zhao said: "I don't know the specifics, but according to the people of Wuji Sect, this stone is a thing left by the immortals, which has been preserved for thousands of years, and has long been psychic. And it is said that even if this stone is dripping with blood, it will not recognize the owner. But if outsiders enter the range of the Thousand Nest Divine Stone, the outer area, the labyrinth is just an activity. However, once you set foot here, and then go back, the labyrinth will take the initiative to attack, creating all kinds of dangers, until it devours people, so you come all the way, except for this thousand poisonous phantom mushroom cave, I am afraid that you will not find even a single corpse. ”

"Speaking of which, aren't we like prisoners of the Thousand Nest Divine Stone?" Su Yan said dumbly.

"Indeed, we are a bunch of prisoners. Moreover, there is no way to escape. Xin Zhao sighed, stood up and said, "Now the cause and effect, the three of you have understood, now follow me into the city." ”

As Xin Zhao entered the cave, it didn't take long for him to come to a teleportation array.

Stepping into the teleportation array, after a flash of luster, the surrounding vision changed.

At the foot is a stone platform depicting the teleportation array, and around it is a huge monument, thick and heavy, which is engraved with various words, because of the age, it has been blurred.

Further outer, there are towering walls, many of which are covered with thick moss on the stone bricks, which look ancient and vicissitudes.

"The stone tablet here records the life history of each intruder in the outside world, in the hope that one day the sacred stone will be known to outsiders after the shackles are lifted. Later in the future, you may also find someone to erect three steles. Xin Zhao said.

As far as the three of them looked, the monuments were densely packed, tens of thousands, and for more than 2,000 years, so many intruders had been trapped here and could not survive.

Walking out of the avenue in the middle of the stone monument group, when I walked out of the open space in front of the exit, there was a young man in white guarding it.

Seeing the visitor, the young man in white immediately rushed over and called out respectfully, "Uncle Zhao." ”

Xin Zhao nodded slightly and said, "Mu'er, take these three to the household registration institute to register." ”

Xin Mu looked at the three of them, and then said with a smile: "Uncle Zhao, you won't release water, right? Just the three of them can beat you?"

"Do you think I'll release the water?" Xin Zhao glanced at him lightly.

Saying this, Xin Mu suddenly looked surprised.

"The shepherd will take you to the household registration office to register, and after you have registered, you will be given a place to live. Xin Zhao said, and carefully advised, "There are many dragons and snakes here, so it's best not to go out until you're familiar with the situation." I'll come back to you later. ”

Li Mo nodded, and Xin Zhao walked towards the way he came.

When he was gone, Xin Mu said curiously: "Did you really defeat Uncle Zhao? Uncle Zhao is among the hundreds of road guards in our Five Treasure City, that is the top ten figures." ”

"It's the edict seniors who didn't do their best. Li Mo smiled slightly.

"I'll just say, Uncle Zhao is a knife-mouthed tofu heart. Come with me, three. Xin Mu smiled and walked forward with the three of them.

Step out of the exit and you'll be greeted by a bustling scene.

Stone buildings stand in a forest, flags flutter, there are huge towers rushing to the sky in the middle, the building is magnificent and atmospheric, and the eaves are like horns.

Farther away, there was a cacophony of noise, which showed that there were not a few people in the city.

Only this street, which seems to have been built to welcome intruders, is so deserted that there is not a single pedestrian on the street.

It didn't take long for the four of them to arrive in front of a large compound.

In the hall inside, there is a plan table and a pile of papers.

A chubby middle-aged man was leaning back in a chair and falling asleep.

The nostrils that were facing the sky were spewing heavily, and the corners of his mouth were drooling.

Next to him, there was a thin-faced young man, also drowsy.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, the thin-faced young man woke up first, and when he saw someone coming, he immediately called: "Lord Wang, it seems that a new person is coming." ”

Wang Fatzi let out a long yawn, and when he looked at the person, his brows furrowed: "You guys broke through?"

Xin Mu smiled and said, "Today is Uncle Zhao's shift." ”

Wang Fatzi snorted coldly and said: "This Xin Zhao is really getting more and more unusual, and he always lets people in." When our Five Treasures City is somewhere, everyone will rush into it!"

Xin Mu said: "Lord Wang, if you want me to say that Uncle Zhao is also kind. Look at the three of them, at such a young age, it's not easy to break into the cliff. If you go back, how can you be the opponent of the Divine Stone, and in the end you will end up with no bones left. ”

"Where is there a place for you to speak? Wang Fat Man glanced at him, casually threw the pen and paper over, and Nunu said, "Fill out this form." ”

Li Mo took the paper and looked at it, and there was a form on it, asking the intruder to write down the characteristics of his origin, sect, position, age, etc.

While the three of them were writing, the thin-faced young man looked at the second girl carefully, his eyes rolling around.

When the three of them handed back the form, Wang Fatzi waved his hand and said, "Take them to find a place to live." ”

When the four of them left, the fat man let out a long yawn, tilted his head, and prepared to sleep again.

At this time, the thin-faced young man suddenly said, "Lord Wang, what do you think of these two girls?"

"What's going on?" asked Fat Wang casually.

"Adults shouldn't forget about the matter of the eldest young master, right?" reminded the thin-faced young man.

Wang Fatzi suddenly shook his head, sat up straight all of a sudden, slapped his head and said, "Yes, these two girls will definitely be able to enter the eyes of the eldest young master." Wang Sun, if this thing is going to be done, you and I don't have to do this idleness. Let's go, let's go see the eldest young master. ”

To the north of Wubao City, a large mansion occupies an entire street, with high walls and green tiles, and the momentum is magnificent. In the corner of the house door, there are two lanterns, on which are written two dazzling characters "Wangfu".

At this moment, in the lobby of Wang's Mansion, there are three people sitting.

The two people on the seat, one on the left, in his sixties, with thick eyebrows like flames and a nose like an eagle's hook, are Wang Huaigu, the head of the Wang family.

The person on the right, also in his early sixties, with a square face and a broad nose and white temples, is Hu Xishan, the head of the Hu family.

The next seat, twenty-seven or eighteen years old, looks like Wang Huaigu, it is Wang Huaigu's eldest son Wang Jin'an.

Siping the tea carefully and putting the cup on the table, Hu Xishan said to himself: "Counting this time, the last few pillars of the array should have arrived in Sunny City. ”

Wiping the beard on his lips, Wang Huaigu smiled and said, "What's the matter, Brother Xishan is nervous?"

"Isn't Brother Huaigu nervous? We have been planning this matter for more than 20 years, and we have finally reached the last step!" Hu Xishan said in a deep voice.

Wang Huaigu laughed, and the laughter echoed in the lobby.

After laughing, he said slowly: "The old man is not only nervous, but has an unprecedented calm. Because, the old man is full of confidence in this matter!"

Below, Wang Jinan smiled and said, "I said Uncle Xishan, you really don't need to be nervous." This thing has not been revealed for twenty years, how can it finally be exposed? I want to say, those old guys in Sunny Glory are still in the dark. ”

Saying this, Hu Xishan also laughed, and said bluntly: "It seems that the old man's determination is not as good as that of the virtuous nephew, which shows that the title of the genius of the virtuous nephew is not true." At the age of twenty-seven, he entered the Xuanyuan Realm, looking at the families in the four cities, no one could stand out. ”

Wang Jinan smiled, his face beaming.

Wang Huaigu also looked at his son proudly, and said loudly: "Our Wang family, since entering the Five Treasures City, has been multiplied for more than ten generations, and now the hope is pinned on Jin'an. I, as a father, have to lay this foundation for him. ”

Hu Xishan nodded and said with a smile: "It's a pity that my daughter got married early." Otherwise, if we are a family of children, it will be perfect. ”

Wang Huaigu also laughed and said: "If this is the case, it can be described as a match made in heaven." However, An'er's vision is too high, he said he was twenty years old, and now he is twenty-seven, and the threshold of saying that he is close has been broken, and he can't even look down on any of them. ”

Wang Jinan said proudly: "Dad, the child is a thousand-year-old genius, how can he marry some vulgar fans, and if he wants to marry a fairy-like woman." ”

Wang Huaigu was slightly displeased, and snorted: "The four cities have a population of more than 100,000 people, which young lady of a family you haven't seen a portrait, how can there be a fairy-like woman, do you think you can still go outside to find it?"

"Then if that is the case, the child would rather not marry. Wang Jinan replied stubbornly.

"You stinky boy!" Wang Huaigu glared angrily.

At this time, a disciple from outside rushed in and said, "Lord Wang of the Hukou Institute asks to see you." ”

"Wang Jian, tell him to come in. Wang Huaigu waved his hand.

It didn't take long for Wang Jian and Wang Sun to rush to the front of the lobby.

"Wang Jian, you don't work in the household registration institute, why did you come to me?" Wang Huaigu asked.

"Master, the little one came here this time for the big young master's big thing. Three intruders just arrived today, two of them are beautiful women. Wang Jian said busily.

"Is it really as beautiful as a fairy?" Wang Jinan was a little unconvinced.

"It's true, the little one's eyes were about to pop out. Wang Jian hurriedly said.

Wang Jinan smiled when he heard this: "With your eyesight, see who doesn't stare at you." That's it, I'm idle anyway, I'll go over and shop later. ”

"Then the little one will show the way to the eldest young master later. Wang Jian said overjoyed.

On the other side, under the leadership of Xin Mu, Li Mo and the three arrived on a small street.

The street is deserted, and although there are residences, they are not popular, and it is clear that they have not been inhabited for a long time.

Xin Mu said: "This is the place where the intruders live temporarily, so you can stay here first." ”

So, the three of them chose a slightly larger house.

After cleaning, we returned to the hall.

Li Mo stood in the middle of the hall, admiring the ancient paintings hanging on the walls of the hall.

Qin Ke'er sat on the side, wiping the Ice Waterfall Sword with a soft cloth.

Su Yan couldn't help but ask, "Brother Mo, do you think we will really be trapped here for the rest of our lives?"
