If you can't pass the threshold array, you won't be able to enter the secret realm.

The threshold formation first appeared three thousand years ago. When it first appeared, no one who entered the secret realm of Linbai Domain was spared. They were all trapped in the formation. They either could not get out for ten days and ten nights and died of exhaustion, or they had to wait for half a month for smoke. It turns into poisonous gas and is poisoned to death, or you are unlucky and encounter a cruel formation, and are directly killed by the things inside. The ways of death are all kinds of weird and all kinds, only you can't think of it. Without it, the White Realm Threshold Formation cannot do it. During that devilish period, no one could come out of Linbai Realm alive.

However, no matter how powerful things are, they are not without natural enemies.

Finally, after painstaking research by the predecessors, more than a thousand years ago, a group of monks practicing Buddhism discovered an old box bone in the westernmost part of the secret realm's threshold formation, and used it to lead the way out of the threshold formation successfully.

Although the world doesn't understand why this group of monks came to Linbaiyu to join in the fun without chanting sutras well, and they actually found a way to break the threshold formation, but finding a way is naturally a matter of universal celebration. There are so many people that the threshold is exceeded. After all, anyone with a bit of ambition and a bit of ability can't resist the temptation of Linbaiyu's heavenly treasures, let alone those who have nothing to do all day long and just want to compete with each other. A large male and female family.

Old box bones, as the name suggests, are the bones of people who died many years ago. It is said that the souls of those who died in the Linbai Domain Threshold Formation will be hidden in one of their bones and will not perish after thousands of years. The bones have been decomposed by the mist for many years and turned into extremely hard fossils. However, in the long run, After a certain period of time, they will slowly grow meat along the outline of the bones, but the meat is foul-smelling. The older the animals are, the more meat they will have. The less meat indicates that they have just died. Therefore, there is a saying that the smellier the old box bones, the better.

The souls of those who died in the threshold array were imprisoned in the array and stored in their own bones and stones. Unless someone comes to find them and make an agreement with them, they can only obtain their own if they satisfy the person who bought them. The reward - freedom.

They trade their souls in exchange for liberation.

"Since they were the people who died in the Threshold Formation back then, it means that they themselves have never walked out, so how can they help the people who came later to walk out?" Gu Beilin held the old box of bones in his hand, thinking that this was someone A certain bone of a friend who has been dead for hundreds of years makes his whole body feel uncomfortable.

Qin Qin looked at the gray skyline in the distance and said, "I don't know."

I don’t know, but it’s so magical.

Qin Qin looked at the old box bones: "Their souls are imprisoned here, but they can't go out. They should be able to move in that formation. No matter how powerful the fog is, if people lose their bodies after death, they will not pose a threat to them." , if they can move freely in the formation, hundreds of years will be enough to understand this place. Of course, this is just my guess."

"I think it makes sense." Gu Beilin touched his chin: "Then why do we buy two? Isn't one enough?"

"We may not be in the same formation. There are more than one threshold formations. Everyone encounters them randomly. There may be many people in a threshold formation, maybe you are the only one." Qin Qin said: "This is something I have never been able to figure out. In this place, the formations are random, and the old bones inside are different. If a participant here buys an old box that is not in the same formation as himself, that old box will not know the way inside the formation. If there is a road, we can’t take people out to participate.”

Qin Qin paused: "But as far as I know, this situation has never happened."

Gu Beilin also realized something, and he thought for a while: "What a coincidence."

"Yeah, it's such a coincidence to rule out the possibility of the old box man." Qin Qin put on his windbreaker outside his clothes. There are sand and dust tornadoes here at night. It is very dangerous to find a place to stay before dark. .

They parked the carriage in a small town. When they left the town, they could be surrounded by secret realms. Maybe they were already in a secret realm now.

Gu Beilin carried the old box bones, weighed them, and asked Qin Qin: "How old is the old box man?"

"It's about the size of a baby. I bought it three years ago when Lin Baiyu, the deputy general of the Yu Clan's right branch army, bought it. That thing was particularly popular in the second secret realm. We have to fight quickly and get out quickly." Qin Qin He frowned.

The Old Box Man is actually an Old Box Bone, but the Old Box Bone is just one bone. The Old Box Man is a person made up of many different parts of the bones. This means that if you buy the Old Box Man, any formation will be different. It can pass, after all, it has all kinds of bones. The old box man is generally used to deal with situations where many threshold formations are encountered in a secret realm.

Gu Beilin pursed his lips and said, "How disgusting would it be if people who hated each other in life ended up in an old box person after death? Would they fight? If they accidentally hit each other, Is the whole Old Box Man going to explode?”

Qin Qin sighed: "In this life, death is like a lamp going out. The old box bones are the incarnation of obsession. They survived with difficulty, and they must all want to be reincarnated. This kind of irrationality may not be possible yet. He was beaten to death by a group of people when he had a seizure."

"It makes sense." Gu Beilin nodded.

The two of them had walked several miles without knowing it. When Gu Beilin turned around, he could no longer see any shadow of the town. The environment they were in at this time was like an uninhabited Gobi desert, and the distant horizon was mottled with gauze mist. On the skyline, wind and sand are wrapped in fog, making it difficult to open your eyes.

Gu Beilin covered his face with the gauze scarf of his bamboo hat. He quietly helped Qin Qin block the sand blowing behind him where he couldn't see him. He patted his sand-filled clothes with his hand and asked, "We are here." Are you considered already in the formation? There is so much wind and smoke here, walking into a place like this doesn’t feel like you’ve entered the formation at all, but rather like being exiled.”

Qin Qin looked forward and saw that the sky was about to darken. Just as he had guessed, a tornado was coming soon. The wind and smoke in Linbai Territory were very heavy in the evening. It seemed like a permanent curse. This place would be buried forever. Prosperity and life.

Qin Qin said: "I can't be sure. Lin Baiyu is very strange. I haven't really been in it. All I know is what I've heard and seen. This scene is very similar to the threshold formation. It should be a general rule. I haven't experienced it personally, so I'd better be cautious. Well, since it’s just a rumor, it’s more or less untrustworthy.”

He looked at Gu Beilin: "To be on the safe side, each of us will take an old box bone, just in case something happens if we don't enter the same formation."

"Okay." Gu Beilin opened the very smelly bag, but his hand was suddenly hit by cold metal.

After Gu Beilin saw what it was, he patted it helplessly: "What are you going to do?"

Yushen seemed to have tolerated him for a long time. From the beginning, he used it to beat the sand, and then put it and the old box bones in one hand. The sword would move twice from time to time to show dissatisfaction, but Gu Beilin actually He had never paid any attention to it, and now Gu Beilin wanted to take out the old box bones. Yushen probably couldn't bear it anymore and jumped up to hit his hand.

When Qin Qin saw this, he was quite optimistic about the show. He stood and spoke without any pain in his back: "Oh, I can't even suppress it with my own sword."

Gu Beilin's face darkened. He would never reveal his secrets in front of Qin Qin even if he fought to the death, so he carried his back while using his true energy to press Yu Shen. He squatted down and pressed the weakest blade of Yu Shen where Qin Qin couldn't see him, and whispered. : "You haven't recognized your father after being out for a few days, right? Are you going to retaliate against me? Believe it or not, I will scratch your shell, and you will live with this scar for the rest of your life!"

This threat was very effective, and Yushen immediately calmed down.

Probably because the sword follows its owner, Yushen has a bad temper and a lot of problems, the biggest of which is his love of beauty. Although it is a bit unbelievable for a sword, Yushen is a sword that wants to give birth to a sword spirit. In its understanding It is naturally different from those dull cold weapons.

"There is a cave in front of us, which is probably where we will stay tonight. You go and see if there is anything there first, and I'll go check over there." Qin Qin told Gu Beilin, who was squatting with his sword, that he had just received the Qianli The news from Chuanyin needs to be dealt with.

Gu Beilin looked at where Qin Qin pointed, but there was nothing there. He smiled and said hello, his eyes twinkling.
