What Li Jiangliu could see was King Fu and his entourage, crowded together not far away.
Li Jiangliu walked a few steps quickly, crossed the secret door, and came to the back of everyone. Lu Ran was tied with the "Lengyan Torch", connected to the baby in his arms, and was dragged forward staggeringly.
Li Jiangliu was happy and surprised. He was happy that the two caves were connected to the left and right. He did not miss the "treasure hunt" on the right of King Fu and his party. He was surprised that they were so close just now. I wonder if his conversation with Lu Ran was After being overheard by others, he lowered his head to salute King Fu and observed everyone's reaction.
Except for Li Yuexuan, who felt a little confused and looked at Lu Ran, no one paid attention to them.
No one lamented the exquisite layout of the two caves, and no one was surprised or surprised by their arrival.
Everyone's attention is on a three-inch celestial platform at the end of the cave on the right.
Said to be Sendai, it is nothing more than made of stones, a simple array surrounded by wild fields, with a fist-sized stone pill enshrined in the center of the array.
It was indeed Ishimaru. Li Jiangliu looked at it carefully and couldn't help but laugh in his heart. This is some kind of fairy treasure cave. There is a flower on the left and a stone pill on the right. It reminds people of the folk nursery rhyme - "When King Fu is happy, the people eat mud." "This King Fu is probably not here to look for materials for his garden.
Li Jiang was distracted, and with the help of Gu Xing, he twisted the four "cold fires" used for lighting, and couldn't help but look at the Ishimaru one more time. He stopped after one glance, and he saw another familiar pattern.
The pattern of both being and not, being and not being.
Like everyone else, his eyes could no longer leave the Immortal Terrace.
Facing Sendai, surrounded by "cold fire", Li Qi looked extremely nervous. He had been standing here for an hour burning incense, only looking at Sendai from a distance, unable to take a step forward.
"Gu Xing, is this Ishimaru?" There was both fear and excitement in his voice.
"Your Highness, that's right." Gu Xing was very firm.
"If you are alone, think about it again." King Fu was gearing up, like a child who wanted to steal food but was afraid of being punished by an adult.
"If I turn back now, I will be ridiculed by everyone in the world, right?" King Fu turned back to look at everyone, smiling brightly and innocently.
Except for Gu Xing who smiled and said nothing, everyone else stood still with dazed expressions on their faces.
King Fu knew that they had all been fascinated by the formation here and by some unspeakable pattern.
"It's too difficult, it's too difficult. Why did my father and master send Gu here? Is it because Gu is worse? In their eyes, Gu is just a person who doesn't care about the world and only cares about his own short-term happiness. A great villain?"
"Tell me, if my father comes in person or sends his eldest brother, what will they choose?"
"What do you think the historian will write a hundred thousand years from now?"
"What do you think those eighty-eight women would think of me?"
"Tell me, why are you acting like a mother-in-law now?"
At this moment, King Fu had already taken a step forward and approached the Immortal Platform. He reached out several times to take the stone pill, but he hesitated to withdraw it.
He had always been decisive in killing without regard to the consequences, but he didn't know why he was so embarrassed and couldn't take action.
"Take it if you want. Grind it."
A voice came from the edge of the crowd, interrupting King Fu.
Looking through the sound, it was Xiao Haizi, with his head lowered and his face stained with blood.
"I almost forgot, there is another one like you here. A destined person." King Fu said with a smile.
Lu Ran, who was not confused by the pattern, or who was simply not qualified to see the pattern, gritted his teeth and stared at Li Qi fiercely.
"You're dirty." Li Qi looked at the burn marks all over his body and the "cold torch" tied to his body, and shook his head in disgust.
Lu Ran didn't answer and asked directly: "Let me ask you, why did Li Jiangliu say that he killed all the people in Lujia Village? Was it you who ordered Li Jiangliu to go there?"
"Yes." Li Qi admitted lightly.
"You - how can you be so shameless - so disrespectful of people's lives -" Lu Ran almost shouted.
Li Qi's eyes flashed with an imperceptible sadness: "People are people, life is life, it's just not worth mentioning. Xiao Haizi, do you know what the stone pill on this stage is?"
"What do I care about him? It has nothing to do with me! No matter who he is or what he is, you can't kill people just for this child!"
"Child?" Li Qi was startled when he heard these two words. He instantly raised a sword energy and passed through the "Lengyan Torch" directly to Lu Ran's throat: "How...how do you know that this Ishimaru is a child?"
This was the first time Lu Ran had seen Li Qi truly angry.
In other words, he lost his temper.
Lu Ran instinctively flinched and shouted, "I saw it. Although this stone pill is small, I clearly see a baby inside."
"Seriously?" Li Qi turned around and glanced at Ishimaru again. He knew Ishimaru's secret, but at this moment, he really couldn't see what was inside Ishimaru.
Maybe this is the beauty of being in a relationship? Li Qi then thought about it, sheathed his sword energy, and said to Lu Ran: "I am rude, it is reasonable for people who are destined to see each other, but Xiao Haizi, since you are so destined, I have a few questions. I want to ask you."
"You ask."
"I want to ask you, if the child in this stone pill is a natural monster and is destined to cause great chaos in the world and destroy all living beings in the future, would you take him away from here today and let him see the light of day again?"
"I won't."
"Then if I take this Ishimaru alone, I will die and you will get revenge?"
"I won't." Lu Ran's answer was still decisive.
"Why?"
"Because I will avenge myself."
"Then if you take this stone pill, you will gain the power of this monster. Do you want to take it?"
"I won't."
"Under what circumstances would you go and get it?"
Lu Ran thought for a moment and said: "Unless you kill me now, before you kill me, I will get it as a last resort."
"why?"
"Because at that moment, I couldn't think about that much."
"Hahahaha." King Fu smiled with relief, and smiled very happily: "I like your answer very much. I will not kill you. Not only will I not kill you, I will avenge you. This Ishimaru is said to be the most powerful person in the world." A strong thing, with him, it is no problem for the Xia royal family like Li Jiangliu to kill thousands of him. As for you to kill Gu, Gu guarantees you that this Ishimaru will definitely kill Gu in the future. Gu Nai Xia Fu Wang Li Qi never breaks his promise."
Lu Ran didn't say anything, but looked unbelieving.
"Don't believe it? You can ask Gu Xing."
Only then did King Fu remember that there was Gu Xing beside him who had been waiting silently.
"What King Fu said is a great secret. Telling it to you is a great blessing. Every word of it, I can guarantee it with my life." Gu Xing stepped forward and nodded.
Although Gu Xing's yin and yang face was terrifying, it was strange that Lu Ran found his words more credible than Li Qi's.
"Whether you are a human being or an immortal, even if you are the true overlord of the three realms, how can you care about so many things."
"Xiao Haizi, you can't even care about so many things!"
Without waiting for Lu Ran to react, or even Gu Xing to see it clearly, King Fu quickly took off the stone pill and put it in his arms.
From then on, he also held the future of this world in his arms.
Lu Ran stared blankly at the man in front of him, falling into some indescribable emotion. Many years later, he would still think of the scene in the cave - Li Qi was like a flower that suddenly bloomed, with long sleeves dancing wildly. , talking and laughing, holding the treasure in his arms, looking up to the sky and smiling.
He looked up to the sky and smiled because everyone was no longer in his eyes. He looked up to the sky and smiled because everything was no longer in his heart. He looked up to the sky and smiled because at that moment, only God could empathize with him.
Although this is not the first time Lu Ran has come into contact with "practitioners" and "immortals", it is the first time that he has truly realized the existence of "immortals", that kind of unrestrained and joyful transcendence, forgetting emotions and things and forgetting himself, even if Li Qi was his blood vendetta at that time, and he was deeply in love with her.
Lu Ran was a little crazy, and even forgot the pain and hatred.
Until Gu Xing's sharp words passed through his ears like a sharp arrow, and also woke up the stunned people.
In a daze, the stone pill has fallen, the maze has been broken, and the great luck has been taken away.
"Congratulations to King Fu for getting the treasure."
"Congratulations to the king for getting the treasure."
"Congratulations to the emperor for getting the treasure."
All kinds of praises and compliments came in droves.
Submerged in the vast number of congratulations, Lu Ran couldn't feel any joy. He only had a kind of deep fear. He seemed to have returned to the dark bottom cabin again, as if he had seen the countless flames and darkness again. And flame, they should not exist at the same time.
They shouldn't even exist.
Lu Ran closed his eyes again in pain.
