Imperial city, palace.
Fan Shihao looked at the moon in the sky with a penetrating gaze, as if he could see through everything. As expected, that person would find ways to kill me whenever he saw an opportunity.
But the road to heaven has been cut off, and the connection between the upper and lower realms has been cut off. What means does he use to control others?
Fan Shihao couldn't understand.
"System, can it really succeed tomorrow?" Fan Shihao asked in his heart.
As expected, there was no response for a long time, and Fan Shihao suddenly felt lonely. There was no one in this vast world with whom he could talk. I just hope it will be successful soon.
For this reason, it is better to take extra insurance!
In the blink of an eye, Fan Shihao disappeared again.
At the same time, Xie Mansion.
Everyone exchanged cups and cups, and Xu Changsheng and others talked about the past ten years. Xie Wule listened quietly.
At midnight, Song Wenjie, Zhuang Yishuang and Xu Wang went back to the house to rest. Meng Wenchu drank many glasses of wine and fell asleep on the table.
Xu Changsheng drank another glass of wine, looked at Xie Wule, and suddenly said: "Brother Xie, where are you going this time?"
Xie Wule was stunned, shook the wine glass in his hand, and said with a smile, "Brother Xu, why do you ask this?"
Xu Changsheng's face became serious: "Brother Xie and I have been together for many years. Every time you hide something from everyone, you always look like this."
Xie Wule also drank the wine and joked: "Really? What am I doing now?"
"I can't tell it, but I can feel it." Xu Changsheng filled himself and Xie Wule's glasses with wine, and drank again in a flash.
The yellow candlelight in the room reflected on their faces.
Xie Wule looked at the food on the table, shaking the wine glass in his hand, and didn't speak for a long time.
"This time, I will go with you."
Xie Wule did not expect that Xu Changsheng would say this. He shook his head and refused: "Brother Xu, the place I am going to next is different from ours. No one knows whether it is dangerous or not. You still have a wife and children, so you can't go."
"That's why I want to go."
Xu Changsheng stood up with support on the table, and without waiting for Xie Wule to refuse again, he said: "Twelve years ago, you went to the imperial city alone, and you only told me about it. I guessed it from the time you suddenly asked me about the rhythm of the poem. You want to pretend to be me and go see Emperor Yanqing."
"The result was exactly as I expected. I was thinking about whether to go with you. In the end, I thought about Zhuang Yishuang and chose to stay. I told your elder brother the news."
"Your eldest brother made a decision immediately and went with you."
"Not long after you left, General Zhang and others found out. Seeing their anxious look, I always thought that as the only person who knew where you were going, it would be better to go to the imperial city with you."
"Ten years ago, you had the same look and told us that you were going to the Song Mansion to meet my aunt. I felt at the time that you would never come back, but I guessed it right!"
"For ten years, I always wondered if I could bring you back to Xie's Mansion if I went with you. But at that time, I still thought about Shuang'er and chose to do nothing."
The candlelight flickered, and the night breeze blew through the window, bringing a bit of coolness. The moonlight outside the window is bright, the stars are brilliant, there are insects chirping and birds chirping from time to time, and the night is beautiful.
Xie Wule's eyes were empty, wondering whether he heard Xu Changsheng's words.
Xu Changsheng didn't care. He picked up the wine pot and found that there was no wine in the pot, so he put it down again.
Xie Wule handed his wine glass to Xu Changsheng. Xu Changsheng took it, moistened his throat, and continued: "This time, if Brother Xie has to leave again, I will definitely be with you! I don't want to regret it after doing nothing again."
Xie Wule still didn't speak, and looked at Xu Changsheng. Their eyes met. Xu Changsheng suddenly staggered, fell down on the chair, and passed out drunk.
"I'm sorry, Brother Xu, I accept your wishes, but this is my own business, and I can't let you take risks with me." Xie Wule said. When he shook the wine glass just now, he secretly heated the wine glass with Zhenqi and steamed the wine again. Once, while Xu Changsheng was talking, he moved his wine glass in front of her, caught the steamed wine, and handed it back to Xu Changsheng.
Xu Changsheng had already drank a lot. After one drink, he was afraid that he would wake up at noon tomorrow, and by then he and others would have already left with Fan Shihao.
The next day.
Xiao Zizai was in the room, and everyone had been waiting here for a long time. I haven't seen Fan Shihao move for a long time.
Seeing that everyone was a little anxious, Fan Shihao smiled and said: "No one has gotten up yet! Don't be anxious!"
Xie Wule looked around. Xiao Zizai, Zhuo Fanlin and others were all there. He didn't know what Fan Shihao was talking about. He didn't mention anyone else yesterday.
Finally, the door was pushed open. Xie Wule stared at the door curiously. When he saw the person coming, he was shocked: "Brother Xu!"
Xu Changsheng walked in and smiled slightly: "Sorry, I'm late."
Fan Shihao had no intention of explaining: "Now that everyone is here, let's set off."
Fan Shihao trapped everyone in his Qi, and the scene in front of everyone changed instantly, and they came to the main hall of the palace.
In the palace, Emperor Yanqing Yang Yi was already waiting here. When he saw Fan Shihao and others appearing, he immediately went up and said, "Master, all the officials have been sent to the palace."
Fan Shihao nodded and waved his hand, and Yang Yi was sent away. Fan Shihao then led everyone to the front of the hall.
"Xiao Zizai, the road to heaven has been cut off, so I can only use my power to forcibly open a passage to the upper world."
"I don't know where this passage will lead, and I don't know if there will be time and space turbulence in it, so you have to pay more attention in a while."
Xiao Zizai pursed his lips, thinking that it was not you who had cut off the road to heaven, otherwise how could it be so troublesome? At the same time, he was also shocked that Fan Shihao could open up a passage on his own. But he didn't want to think too much at the moment. He had already seen how unreasonable Fan Shihao was.
Fan Shihao walked up the steps of the palace, came to the dragon chair, and motioned for everyone to come over.
When everyone formed a circle, Fan Shihao instantly cast multiple seals on the dragon chair. The dragon chair suddenly glowed with golden light, creating a powerful spatial fluctuation.
Xiao Zizai looked at the dragon chair, but he didn't expect that this inconspicuous thing could be such a treasure and could withstand the pressure of space tearing.
Fan Shihao didn't dare to relax, Dao Seals appeared one after another, and the space fluctuated more and more. Suddenly there was a loud noise, and Fan Shihao flew upside down like a kite with its string cut off.
A strong wind suddenly blew in the palace, gradually forming a storm above the main hall.
The colored glaze on the palace was lifted up, all the trees in the palace were broken, and they were all thrown into the storm, and all the clouds in the sky were crushed.
The sky and the sun were blocked for a while, like late at night.
Fan Shihao was sitting at the foot of the wall. Standing was a problem, but he was still making Dao seals.
Not enough! Is it going to fail?
Fan Shihao frowned. He was about to reach his limit. Is this the end?
Upper Bound. In the Jiutian Palace, a man with a broken arm was casting spells in the air. Beads of sweat fell from his eyes, but he laughed loudly: "Fan Shihao, I am determined not to let you come to the upper world!"
what happened? He was already very reluctant to resist Fan Shihao, so why would anyone else want to take advantage of the chaos to go to the world?
Normally it would be too late for him to be happy, but now Fan Shihao is trying too, damn it!
Fan Shihao could no longer hold on, a mouthful of blood spurted out, and his hand movements slowed down.
Just missing the last three!
Just when he was about to give up, he suddenly saw Xiao Zizai in the formation learning to press the Tao Seal by himself.
Xiao Zizi's strength was naturally not as strong as Fan Shihao's. Every time he pinched a seal, it was extremely difficult. At this moment, blood began to ooze from his clenched teeth. He suddenly yelled: "Fan Shihao, watch out for me! I'm a member of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths of the Upper Realm. The first swordsman!"
Xiao Zizai finally made the last seal, and a crack slowly opened on the dragon chair, and everyone in the formation was sucked in.
The cracks closed instantly, and the storm suddenly stopped. Countless debris fell like rain.
Fan Shihao looked at the miserable situation in front of him and laughed loudly, it's done!
At the same time, in the upper realm, in Jiutian Palace, the one-armed man was also laughing, but Fan Shihao failed to come up!
Fan Shihao naturally didn't know that anyone was hindering him. He only lamented that the process was difficult and difficult. He took the luck of the next world as his guide and made a big gamble this time. If he failed, he would have nothing left.
The dragon chair cracked into two halves. It was originally a mortal thing. It's no wonder that Xiao Zizi didn't notice it, but its existence has been a spiritual symbol of a nation for many years. No matter how different dynasties change, it will always be there, and over time it will become the spirit of the lower world. symbol of luck.
Fan Shihao activated the formation he had previously deployed relying on the system, so that no one outside the palace could know what was happening inside.
Fan Shihao smiled and fainted.
"Ding! The mission status has been updated. Please check it carefully, host.
Mission: Dao Chongshu
Task description: none
Difficulty: five stars
Completion reward:? ? ? ?
Progress: Executing
"
Xie Wule opened his eyes and looked at the unfamiliar environment around him. The Qi content in the air was far beyond that of the lower realm, and his body felt comfortable and light. It seemed that he had reached the upper realm.
Just as he was about to get up, severe pain spread throughout his body. Xie Wule felt as if he had fallen from the clouds into hell, unable to even move a finger.
That's right. He and his group encountered the turbulence of time and space in the passage. Xiao Zi used too much energy to pinch the Dao Seal before and had not yet recovered. He barely protected everyone, but because he was scattered by the turbulence, he was now nearby. I have no choice but to thank Wule.
Xie Wule looked at the bright starry sky and prayed silently in his heart that he would not encounter a spiritual beast tonight.
Spirit beasts are said to exist in the lower world, but because they are bathed in a large amount of Qi all year round, some spirit beasts have developed spiritual intelligence, and some can even transform into human forms.
Xie Wule didn't pay too much attention to this. He said for a long time that he was just like Xiao Xiao. At most, he was bigger, stronger, and more fierce than her...
At the same time, on the way here, Xie Wule also learned that time flows at different speeds in the upper world and the lower world. One month in the upper world and one year in the lower world. Xie Wule has spent more than ten years in the lower world, and it has only been just one year in the upper world.
In other words, it has only been about a year since Liu Yucheng was separated from him.
Xie Wule sighed, closed his eyes, and stopped thinking about trivial matters. Now he could only get through the long night quickly by falling asleep.
When he woke up the next day, Xie Wule's clothes were wet with dew. He carefully tried to move and found nothing unusual.
Xie Wule was overjoyed. He stood up like a carp and began to use his true energy. The clothes instantly rose into white mist, and they were dry in a short time. Only then did Xie Wule know what his surroundings looked like.
He was in a meadow in the forest, and the grass under his feet was soft. Thanks to this, he slept quite comfortably last night. Looking at the dense forest not far away, the trees and branches are intertwined, and there is no light in the forest. It seems that there are many spiritual beasts living there. I don't know why I was able to sleep peacefully last night.
Where should I go now?
An extremely difficult problem was immediately placed in front of Xie Wule.
"That man over there, where are you going? In front of you is the border of the Beast Mountain Range! It will be very dangerous for you to go in alone."
For a long time, just when Xie Wule was about to choose a random direction to set off, someone suddenly stopped Xie Wule from behind.
Xie Wule was overjoyed. He didn't expect to meet people in this wilderness. He was really lucky.
Xie Wule turned around with a smile, saw a young man, and hurriedly walked forward: "Thank you, brother, for reminding me. This is my first time here, and I accidentally lost my way. Thanks to brother, are there any villages or towns nearby? "
"If you have any, please point me in the direction."
The young man is very tall, a head taller than Xie Wule. He is very thin. The long hair on his head is somewhat tangled. He is wearing clothes made of many strips of cloth, and the skin underneath can still be vaguely seen.
After listening to what Xie Wule said, the young man raised his head and looked at the sky for a while, pointed in a direction and then replied: "There is no town, but the village where I live is over there. If you don't mind, I can take you there."
"Thank you very much, brother."
Xie Wule walked behind the young man: "Brother, where is the border of this group of beast mountains?"
"The border of the Beast Mountain Range is the border of the Beast Mountain Range. You just need to know that it is very dangerous over there." The young man seemed to have answered, but also seemed to say nothing.
Xie Wule said "oh" and continued to follow. Soon a village appeared in front of him.
This village is similar to the village of the Linwei people in the lower realm. After walking for a while, the young man stopped in front of a house. It seemed that this was his residence.
"You can live here with me, or you can live in a room of your own choice. It depends on your choice." The young man opened the door and said to Xie Wule.
Xie Wule looked at the surrounding houses. Moss covered the walls, and some were only ruins. He was a little surprised before. He didn't see anyone after entering the village. Now the young man said this again. Xie Wule asked: "Are you the only one in the village? ?What about the rest?"
"There used to be a lot of people, and all the houses were full, but since they once went to the border of the Beast Mountain Range and recruited something from somewhere into the village, everyone died. I happened to go out at that time, and when I came back There are only some corpses left." When the young man said it, there was no obvious emotion.
Xie Wule was shocked. Just the border of the Beast Mountain Range was so dangerous. If the young man hadn't stopped me just now and I walked in, wouldn't it be a dead end?
"My surname is Xie and my first name is Wule. I wonder what my brother is called?" Xie Wule then remembered to ask the young man his name.
The young man thought for a long time: "It's been too long, I almost didn't remember it. My name is Tata Muyou."
