However, after returning to the guardhouse, Song Yu did not go back to the wing where he was staying. Instead, he followed up with the main accountant and said, "Mr. Tang, Sister Beauty, if you want to talk about things in the Demon Suppression Pass, you can't help but bring me with you." .”
Zhu Meiren was immediately displeased, but Tang Ya nodded, and Zhu Meiren had no choice but to sit aside with her arms folded, with a look that said "I want to see what tricks you can do" written all over her face.
Song Yu knew that it was difficult to improve Zhu Meiren's favorability, so he simply didn't care about it and added trouble to himself. He found a place to sit down, picked a bag of peanuts from his backpack and took it out: "Then let's talk while eating. It's so tight that even my brain can't turn around."
The words are still incomprehensible. But Tang Ya still symbolically picked up a peanut in his hand, gently rubbed it with his rough fingertips, and carefully rubbed off the ripe red peanut coat stained with crystal salt grains, which was regarded as a favor to Song Yu.
But that's all. Tang Ya doesn't plan to say more about the Demon Suppression Pass. He'll just talk about it.
Zhu Meiren's attitude became even more determined. Although her eyes were still wide open, they were obviously no longer focused, and she didn't know where her mind had flown.
Song Yu and the two of them stared at each other for a while, knowing that they had to do it by themselves: "What exactly is the third level of the Demon Suppression Pass?"
These words brought Tang Ya and Zhu Meiren back to their senses instantly. Tang Ya smiled and said: "Why did the Young City Master say this?"
"Actually, my uncle vaguely mentioned something to me." Song Yu sighed, "He said that the Demon Suppression Pass here is different from ordinary demon caves, which is why the Security Department needs to perform its duties. But now we are almost exploring the second floor. , and was attacked by a strange beast that neither of them had ever seen before, I think that something on the third floor might be the key."
Song Yu pulled Lin Ting's banner to make what he said seem more reasonable. But he didn’t know that these words had another meaning in Tang Ya’s ears——
The director vaguely mentioned something about demon suppression to the young city lord? It seemed that I had indeed made a mistake earlier. The director sent the young city lord here just to give him a justifiable achievement. This is indeed the case, otherwise Zhu Meiren would not be as quiet as she is now. She has the most dislike for the young city lord among the guards.
Who knew that Zhu Meiren had another idea. Although she also knew some inside information about the Demon Suppression Pass, she didn't know what the third level was like. A slap in the face must be well-founded, and it is natural not to say anything at this time.
After there was such suspicion within the Security Department, Tang Ya shook his head: "Young City Lord, you don't need to know that much, you just need to understand that the second floor of Demon Town Pass is already so dangerous, and the third floor is even more terrifying. For Tianyong, Young Master It’s inconvenient for the city lord to explore the Demon Town Pass again.”
Song Yu knew that Tang Ya was stubborn in his underlying logic, but anyway, he also had the trump card to break through with Xie Nanshi, and he was not afraid of arguing with Tang Ya. Without much thought, Song Yu made a move to retreat and advance: "It's not impossible if I don't go in, but what about the Department of Peace? If you don't know what that thing is, how dare you say that Tianyong won't have a disaster in the future? Is what Bai called the embassy a few days ago just for show?"
A few rhetorical questions that spoke loudly. Tang Ya was stunned to see a bit of the authority of a superior person in the young man Song Yu, and after a while he replied: "We will discuss these ourselves."
"To put it bluntly, it's because I can't practice and think I can't do anything." Song Yu shrugged, "Then I can't even listen? Are you going to force me out?"
Song Yu responded with silence.
After a long time, Tang Ya seemed to have obtained a logical answer to the question of "Whether it is in line with the character setting to set off the Song Dynasty", and then he said: "Young City Lord, you have also seen it in the past two days. Only one person is required on the first floor. If the soldiers are brave, they can run rampant. Therefore, on the first level outside the Demon Suppressing Pass and in the Demon Suppressing Pass, the Security Department only prevents stray people from entering, but does not set up additional entry and exit thresholds."
Song Yu nodded: "You have set up the formation. If anyone wants to go to the second level to experience it, they must get your consent. Because most of the strange beasts and ghosts on this second level are rough-skinned and thick-bodied, it is best to have sects with each other. cooperation."
"That's right. Generally speaking, sects and gangs can always cooperate with each other. As long as they have some strength, there won't be much damage." Tang Ya said, "But the third level is completely different."
Song Yu just listened quietly. In order to prevent any slight change from causing Tang Ya to give up his plan to continue talking, he even stopped picking up the peanuts.
"The third floor is far less complex than the second floor. The explored part is only a hundred meters in radius before reaching the boundary. But it is in such a small and large place, it is like the legendary Mustard Seed Realm. No matter how many people we send, we will not be able to enter the third floor." You will always be alone in the end. You are lucky not to be besieged by the strange ghosts and beasts inside, and you are lucky to meet your companions, but you can only meet four or five people at most." Tang Ya's face was solemn, and he only wished that Song Yu could not get into his mind and understand To the despair of being alone and powerless, "If we cooperate well, we can still find an exit. If not... we will never get out again."
In order to explore the third floor, the Department of Peace once summoned more monks than the ones who go to Zhenyao Pass today, wrote down the status of life and death and then broke through the pass. But less than one-third came back.
Tang Ya was once one of the people who entered the third level. At that time, he felt something was a little strange. But after finding his colleagues, fighting all the way was not easy, but it was not really a desperate situation. But when I came out and gathered with other colleagues, I discovered that although everyone entered the same place and realm, the strange beasts and ghosts they encountered were all kinds of strange. It can be said that they have never been seen in the records of Tianyong or even the world.
After that, Tang Ya also entered and exited the third floor several times, but he still survived to this day. Because of this, Lin Tingcai sent Tang Ya to host Song Yu. But Tang Ya himself knew that he was just lucky enough to get through one mystery after another.
After Tang Ya finished all this, Song Yu had a rough idea of the structure of Demon Suppression Pass.
The first floor is a spawn point for elite monsters, the second floor is a large dungeon that can accommodate a hundred people for team battles, and the third floor is probably a trial dungeon for small teams.
This is also in line with the design thinking of the game.
As long as it was a copy, it could be conquered, and Song Yu felt much more relaxed. He knew that Tang Ya was trying another way to persuade him not to enter the Yaozhen Pass again, so why couldn't Song Yu use another way to persuade Tang Ya?
For example, killing the alien beast that created that darkness.
"I don't have to go to the third floor yet." Song Yu could only retreat in order to advance. Anyway, he just said that if he didn't go now, he could still go in the future. "But the matter on the second floor must be resolved."
Tang Ya pursed his lips. According to his idea, it was just the people from the Peace Department who worked together to solve all this, and then gave the credit to Song Yu, which could be regarded as completing the "merit" he wanted.
After all, the Secretary of Peace is so well-informed that he still doesn’t know the secret. What can a young master who was raised in a palace like Song Yu and was exiled just a few months ago know?
Song Yu had his own way of explaining: "Please also invite Taoist Master Xie here."
Not long after, Xie Nanshi was introduced into the tent. On the way here, Song Yu had already told Nan Shi everything he had just learned through voice transmission, and some people suspected that the two of them coincided with each other. So Jie Nanshi, who came to the tent, just pretended to listen to a few words, and then said: "The darkness is not a rare beast, but a special realm created by the beast."
The cooperative gesture is perfect.
Tang Ya and Zhu Meiren were both startled. Zhu Meiren asked: "What kind of strange beast can create such a large realm?"
Xie Nanshi was really confused. This was just a hypothesis he made casually. In fact, both he and Song Yu believed that it was a vision revealed by Guixu. After all, Song Yu had entered Gui Xu before, and that meant being in the boundless darkness without knowing anything about heaven and earth, life or death.
It was Song Yu who answered: "We encountered such a strange beast when we were in Yongxi Prefecture, and it was Taoist Master Jie who solved it at that time. However, this kind of strange beast is very good at hiding its whereabouts, and it will take a long time to investigate. But its It’s not going fast, so as long as you’re prepared, there won’t be any danger. We can gather a smart team to detect the opponent’s position first, and then defeat them in a targeted manner.”
Perhaps with the endorsement of a great cultivator like Nan Shi, Tang Ya did not object to Song Yu's plan: "That's fine. Then please ask the young city lord to rest in the guardhouse. I'll go there later."
...It’s respectable to have strong principles, but it’s really annoying if you don’t follow the rules.
Song Yu was at a loss for words when he kept talking until night, and he couldn't get Tang Ya to let go.
Song Yu returned to the side room angrily. He suggested to Xie Nanshi: "How about we follow him secretly tomorrow? I can finally see clearly that Tang Ya is basically trying to defeat ten groups with one effort. All methods are useless against him. He is stubborn and ineffective."
Just as Jie Nanshi was about to nod, he suddenly felt a breath and turned around to see that it was Lu Mingzhi.
Following Jie Nanshi's eyes, Song Yu discovered that there was another person here: "Divine Doctor Lu."
He wasn't worried about Lu Mingzhi going to tell Tang Ya, but after all, they weren't that close, and he didn't want to drag Lu Mingzhi into it.
Unexpectedly, Lu Mingzhi just put down his medical skills and smiled faintly: "You want to enter the Demon Suppression Pass?"
Song Yuqi said: "Yes. Does Divine Doctor Lu have a solution?"
However, Lu Mingzhi first looked at Xie Nanshi meaningfully and then said: "Maybe it is really useful to have a place below. The Taoist priest must be thinking, how can I have the ability to let the Taoist priest enter the room without noticing me immediately? existence. The answer is this.”
Lu Mingzhi took out a brocade box: "This is the Breathless Pill I refined. After taking it, it can suppress one's aura to an extremely low level. No matter how high others are in cultivation, it will be difficult for them to detect strange beasts no matter how sensitive their sense of smell is. That's why I rely on this A lot of dangers have been avoided.”
Song Yu opened the brocade box and saw that it was densely packed with rice-sized balls. He pinched one, and there was a faint fragrance. Song Yu had never smelled this kind of smell. As for the pill, both the name of the item and its properties are full of question marks.
Lu Mingzhi smiled slightly again: "If you don't believe it, you can take one and give it a try."
