Hearing this, Daluo Blood Demon suddenly had an expression of disbelief on his face. This Zijun is not only a name to the Eastern Continent, but also a legend. But listening to the tone of these two people, it was as if Zijun was still alive.
He dug his ears and asked tentatively again: "You two girls...the Zijun you are talking about is the one who founded Linlang Market?"
"Uncle Snake, don't be ridiculous. Is there a second Zijun in this world?" Yan Yan covered her mouth and laughed when she heard this.
When Daluo Blood Demon heard this, his heart suddenly tightened. He had naturally heard of Zijun's legend, and the Zijun in the story was just an ordinary person. But now, Daluo Blood Demon actually had some doubts about his ears. If Zijun took it seriously How can ordinary people live to this day after a hundred years?
However, he has also heard that there are powerful people who can integrate their spiritual consciousness into all things. Although the two girls said that it was Zijun who instructed him, he has never seen Zijun. Could it be that Zijun integrated himself into this world? Is the magic weapon of "stealing the sky" useless?
Thinking of this, he always felt that there was a pair of eyes staring at him in the crack, so he looked around cautiously.
Seeing Da Luo Blood Demon's cautious look, Yingying thought he was still worried about what Chi Huang had done, so she explained softly: "Uncle Snake, don't worry, Master Zijun will not appear in front of strangers without reason. Since he can see you, it has shown that he is very relieved about you, so Master Chihuang asked us to come here just to protect you and for no other purpose."
"Zijun...has he seen me?" Daluo Blood Demon's breath froze upon hearing this. The ice wall here was extremely crystal clear, with only three shadows clearly reflected. Could it be that Zijun was really so elusive that he could not detect it?
"Uncle Snake, your memory is really bad. Didn't you just talk to your senior? Why did you forget it in the blink of an eye?" Yanyan muttered at the side.
"I...have seen him? Why don't I remember..." Daluo Blood Demon frowned. He had seen many faces since he entered Linlang Market, but most of them were aborigines of Linlang Market. The only ones he had ever talked to were The only ones in front of me are the two of them and Master Chihuang. Where are the others?
But when he thought of this, he suddenly slapped his head, and an ordinary figure gradually appeared in his mind. This person was extremely ordinary no matter where he was, but he had no impression of him. If the two girls hadn't mentioned it, he would have been there long ago. It was forgotten beyond the sky.
Thinking of this ordinary person, he also remembered the previous conversation, from Chi Huang calling him senior, to this person saying that Linlang Market should be handed over to Chi Huang, everything turned out to be logical, and the final answer was very obvious. Ordinary people are the legendary master craftsmen, the number one caster - Zijun!
But the strange thing is that although Daluo Blood Demon remembered things about him after the two reminded him, his appearance was extremely vague. Every time he deliberately thought about it, his mind was filled with chaos.
"It turns out that the old senior... is Zijun..." Da Luo Blood Demon really couldn't remember, and his tone was a little regretful, "I didn't expect that when I met today... this senior Zijun was really... unexpected..."
"What Uncle Snake just wanted to say was ordinary, right?" Yingying heard the hesitation in Daluo Blood Demon's tone and smiled lightly.
"Haha... The girl actually saw through my mind. Yes, this is indeed what I just thought..." Daluo Blood Demon was honest, "I thought that this Zijun was a legendary figure after all, but I didn't expect that when I saw him today, he was really Is it different than imagined?”
"The so-called legends... are nothing more than the deification of history! A master does not necessarily have to be talented and handsome. An ordinary-looking person can still be radiant as long as he has a kind heart!" Yingying said.
"What the girl said is absolutely true. It is true that I have some preconceptions." Da Luo Blood Demon smiled when he heard this, and then asked again: "But girl...who is this Zijun, and why do you think he looks even better than me?" How much younger do you want?"
"We are not very clear about the specific things. I only remember that when I met Senior Zijun once, he mentioned to Lord Chihuang that he had become an immortal body. It must be related to this..." Yingying frowned, then shook her head.
Yingying and Yanyan had told themselves enough things today. Since they didn't know this matter clearly, Daluo Blood Demon had no intention of asking more questions. He just secretly wrote down these few words in his heart and waited until the future. I'll do some more research when I have time.
"You two girls, I have recovered about the same now. If this road is open, I won't bother sending you two girls far away." The elixir that Daluo Blood Demon just took has taken effect, and his body is no longer as stiff as before. Also ready to get up and leave.
"This road is indeed feasible and good, but it requires a lot of unnecessary walking... The time has not passed yet. Uncle Snake, please be patient for a moment. The two of us will help you find another way." Yingying pinched her fingers after hearing this. Then he answered carefully.
"The time has not passed? What time?" Daluo Blood Demon asked.
"Of course it's time for the 'Phantom Sun'! Didn't I just... Oops! I forgot that I haven't told you yet!" Yanyan was halfway through her words when she suddenly remembered that she had originally wanted to tell him about this magic weapon "Stealing the Sky" ", but because of Xiaohu's incident, he diverted his attention and shifted the topic to senior Zijun.
"Magic Sun? What Magic Sun?" Daluo Blood Demon felt as if he had never seen the world before. Why had he never heard of these things?
"Yanyan, let me talk!" Yingying was afraid that Yanyan would take away the topic again, so she also covered her mouth.
"Actually, the rotation of the sun and the moon in this far north is the same as that of the outside world. The reason why everyone says that there is never a sunset in the far north is because of this 'stealing of the sky'..." Yingying said with a bitter smile.
After listening to Yingying's explanation, Daluo Blood Demon finally understood that those so-called souls were just spreading rumors...
"It is said that because of the vast territory of the Far North, it has naturally become a place for wandering ghosts. Therefore, they are often invaded by them at night. Although it is not a trouble, it does make people prepare for it every night. Annoying!”
"Senior Zijun was also worried about this kind of thing at the time and had been thinking about how to protect Linlang Market. However, these lonely ghosts were pervasive and there was no good countermeasure."
"One day when Senior Zijun was exploring Linlang Market City, he suddenly heard someone muttering next to him, if the sun never sets, wouldn't it mean that we no longer have to worry about lonely souls and wild ghosts!"
"The speaker is unintentional, but the listener is intentional. Senior Zijun finally took it into consideration. After three days and three nights of careful craftsmanship, he finally refined several pieces of crystal clear stone and named them 'Shou Tian'. "
"At that time, Senior Zijun asked several people to bring these stones to the border area and place them on the ground. Not long after the arrangement was completed, these stones rose into the wind and rumblingly expanded... and finally formed The iceberg we are hiding in now." Yingying pointed to the iceberg beside her and said lightly.
No wonder he always felt that there was something unusual about this iceberg. It turned out that this was the magic weapon that the two of them had been talking about! Daluo Blood Demon received too much information today, and he has become a little numb, and he is no longer surprised.
"These icebergs contain magical formations that can absorb the energy emitted by the sun during the day, and then when night comes, they gather this energy into a point in the sky to form a second sun, and this 'sun' is called 'phantom' day'."
"So... although the sky in the far north seems to have remained unchanged, it is just the light of the 'phantom sun' that has driven away the darkness of the night! What a great way to steal the 'phantom sun' from the sky!" Daluo Blood Demon heard. Yan finally woke up.
Although the "phantom sun" formed by this magic circle can suppress lonely souls and wild ghosts, it cannot shine with the sun and the moon after all.
Therefore, even if the visitors are fine during the day, at night, even if there is a 'phantom sun' in the sky, it is still difficult to withstand the severe cold of the Far North!
The doubts were cleared, and then they were speechless. After resting here for a few hours, they returned the same way, walking for several miles from the white land along the foot of the iceberg, and came to another crack...
…
Jinpeng clan, in the dungeon, various voices came and went, some begging, some making noises, some scolding, some crying... The originally empty dungeon was now filled with many people.
Jin Gui wore a mask and held his nose as he patrolled, followed by several Jinpeng tribesmen who also wore masks.
"Are they all here?"
"It's all here..."
"What about the rest?"
"still on the way…"
"A bunch of useless things!" Jin Gui gritted his teeth after hearing this, and then suddenly lowered his voice a bit and asked: "Squad leader, how are the preparations for the ceremony going?"
"Back to Third Young Master... The Eldest Young Master's mood has stabilized. Tomorrow's ceremony has been prepared. There should be no problem..." The man behind him said respectfully.
"No problem...No problem? I didn't expect this Jin Yin to be so cold-blooded! His father just left, and he was able to calm down!" Jin Gui's heart sank when he heard this. If this continues, once he passes the ceremony, won't he be helpless again? Any hope? Since the cripple died, there has been no movement from the adults, and Jin Gui is also very uneasy.
At this moment, a guard suddenly ran up to the dungeon and said a few words in Jin Gui's ear in a deep voice. Jin Gui nodded and said lightly: "I understand...bring them all in."
When the visitor heard this, he looked around and said with an ugly face, "But Third Young Master, the number of people in this dungeon has exceeded three times the limit... If more people come, I'm afraid..."
"Am I asking you to talk too much?" Jin Gui glanced around after hearing this and scolded him coldly.
"This third young master... we are really unjust! Since the dungeon is full, please let us go!" When the man heard the words of the visitor, his mind suddenly became active, and then these words were like a spark, instantly making him The dungeon exploded.
"That's right... Third Young Master, we just happened to pass by here and didn't mean to trespass!"
"This lord just mentioned Jin Yin...Are you from the Jinpeng tribe? I'm from Yangdu City. I hope you can let me live..."
"Jinpeng tribe? Is this the Jinpeng tribe? It seems that this is just a misunderstanding. Since it is the Jinpeng tribe, it should be fine!" A person next to him also became excited when he heard this.
"Oops!" Jin Gui's heart sank when he heard this. After all, he acted out of selfish motives this time and asked his people to act in masks. He didn't expect that his identity would be exposed due to his momentary loss of speech. If word spread in the future, the consequences would be disastrous.
But he just frowned for a moment, but suddenly raised his eyebrows, and laughed and said: "Yes, I am indeed a member of the Jinpeng tribe. Now the eldest son Jin Yin suspects that one of you has killed King Jinpeng. If any of you have clues, please tell them. , I will keep you safe and sound!"
"My lord... King Jinpeng has been so kind to us. How dare we harm him? If you let us out, we promise to help you find the murderer and kill him with a thousand knives!"
"Yes! Find the murderer! Kill him with a thousand cuts!"
"You really don't know?" Jin Gui sneered, but his face was even colder.
"I really don't know..."
"Okay! I don't know about ungrateful people. Since you are not guilty, I naturally can't keep you close..." Jin Gui twisted his neck and made a clicking sound.
"Thank you, sir..."
"Don't be too quick to thank me..." Jin Gui's eyes flickered as he said, "Although I want to let you go, it's a pity that Mr. Jin has an order, asking me to rather kill the wrong person than let go... so..."
He just laughed and said viciously -
"Leave no one behind!"
