sword sentient beings

Chapter 555: Panying Snake
Received Xing Cang's invitation, Tang Zhao was very reluctant, hesitating left and right, and finally "had to" agree.

But he insisted on holding the white fox, as if he wanted to use "the young master's sword elephant" as a shield, and there was an unavoidable expression of resignation on his face.

Xing Cang didn't mind, showing a kind smile.Dang entered the cart, drove out the sword slave who was serving in the cart, and let "Xing Qi" sit opposite him.Xing Wu, watching Xing Qi being pulled into Xing Cang's cart, couldn't help feeling worried.

The two sat opposite each other in the car, Xing Cang looked at each other's embarrassment, did not show his power, but spoke words of comfort, took his hand and asked him to warm up, as if Xing Qi just came back from outside, and the two hadn't seen each other for a year and a half Met in general.If someone looks at the situation in the car from the window, they must think that they are close friends.

Of course, Tufei ignored the infighting in Changfa Manor, gave orders, and got into the car by himself.

Following Tu Feide's order, the convoy turned.

To the west of Yulang City, there is a straight and towering mountain range like a cliff.

Whether it is sunny or cloudy, the mountains are always gray and white. From a distance, they look like artificially excavated walls, standing quietly at the end of the line of sight, with a very neat height, abruptly raising the skyline by a hundred feet.

Even people who are familiar with this place will still be in a trance when they see this kind of mountain, as if there is a wall built by gods. The inside of the wall is the human world, and the outside of the wall is another world.

Because it resembles man-made and is too tall to be reached by man-made, this kind of giant will give people a sense of fear from the heart. I don't know when it started, and weird legends about that mountain have emerged endlessly.The tribes on the desert passed word of mouth about the countless gods and demons that inhabited that mountain wall.

This awe-inspiring "wall of the world" is called Mount Anxi.

But among some people who know a little bit of the inside story, it is called Wangliang Mountain.

The reason why I say it is someone who knows "a little bit" of the inside story, because people who really know a lot know that Mount Anxi is not two mountains.

Wang Liangshan is not a certain mountain that really exists in this world.

If it is insisted that it really exists, it can only be said that it exists in the shadow of the Mount of Rest.

This is the first time Tang Zhao has formally set foot on Mount Wang, but it is not the first time he has approached Mount Anxi.

In the past half a month, Tang Zhao lived in Yulang City, thirty miles away from Mount Anxi, and he and his companions came to investigate around the foot of Mount Anxi many times.Especially after connecting with Wei Changle, he even observed the environment of Anxi Mountain under his guidance, and confirmed it with the collected information. Every time he saw this mountain, he still felt weird and abnormal.

The unbelievable height and steep slope perpendicular to the ground of Mount Anxi can only be described as uncanny workmanship, and the strangest thing about it is its shadow——

The shadows of all things in the world change with the light. For example, the shadows of mountains and trees are like the shadows of trees. They are long and narrow in the morning and evening, but in different directions.But the Mount of Rest is different, the shadow of Mount of Rest is eternal.

At the foot of the Anxi Mountain, there are patches of shadows, huge and stretched, just like the gorgeous skirt of the Anxi Mountain wearing a skirt. From the first ray of sunshine in the morning on the mountain, until the night completely falls on the earth, the shadow of the Anxi Mountain will last forever. It is so wide, so long, so deep and unfathomable.

The shadow is as neat as the gable, except that there is a circular arch in the middle, and there is a faint gap in the middle, like a door, or like a monster grinning wildly.

That is the public entrance of Wangliang Mountain - the gate of the abyss.

According to the analysis of Jing'an Division of Yunzhou, the shadow of Anxi Mountain may be Wang Liang's body, or at least Wang Liang's avatar, which is used to connect to the body.And Wangliang Mountain is probably inside Wangliang.The gate of the abyss is the mouth of the abyss, or openings similar to the seven orifices, connecting the inside and outside of the body of the abyss.

The interior of Wangliang should be layered, and the bottom layer is the legendary "Kingdom of Shadows", where everything is left with only shadows.But the upper layer should still be similar to the real world, where the slave owners and sword slaves lived, and they could still survive like ordinary people.

But when Tang Zhaoshi came here to investigate, he always had doubts. Today, as the team bypassed the gate of the abyss, he didn't believe this guess:

Here, why is there no breath of destruction?

According to Jinwu, Wang Liang was suppressed by the sword intent of destruction and could not move. Even if it recovers now, or even suppresses destruction, it cannot completely swallow destruction. Even if it is swallowed, it cannot be completely digested. breath.

And Tang Zhao, as one-third of the Golden Crow Sword's heir, is very sensitive to the Golden Crow Sword's intent, it is impossible to see the shadow in front of his eyes without feeling at all.

Perhaps, Wang Liang is still hiding in a deeper place, and this shadow of Mount Anxi is just its "cloak", or...

The projection of Wang Liang?
Having said that, Wang Liang's original intention was originally "shadow of shadow", so could this shadow be said to be "shadow of shadow of shadow"?
Can this also be infinitely nested?

Although Tang Zhao felt puzzled, he was also mentally prepared: if he wanted to find out the details of Wang Liang, how could he just lean on the edge and feel it?You can't go deep into the tiger's den, not to mention the tiger's cubs, even the tiger's hair.

"Aqi."

Tang Zhao concentrated his mind and looked at Xing Cang who was sitting opposite him. The old man had a kind smile on his face.

Tang Zhao immediately said respectfully and cautiously: "Chief Manager."

Xing Cang said with a smile: "Don't be so nervous. Going back to the two mountains is going home. Are you still nervous about going home? You can't be nervous because of me, right?"

Tang Zhaodao: "How could it be? When I'm with the chief executive, it's like being with my family—no, it's my family. How can I be nervous? I'm just... nervous about Yinglangqiao."

Xing Cang was stunned: "It's okay, is this your first time walking the Yinglang Bridge?"

Tang Zhao said, "Yes, I didn't have that honor before."

In fact, he didn't know whether Xing Qi had passed the Yinglang Bridge or not. It was impossible to ask such trivial details, but he couldn't hesitate, so he pulled it out as an excuse.

From a rational point of view, it is impossible for Xingqi to pass by.

It's still the same sentence, if you lose the bet...you lose, and immediately turn your back on it.The strength is in the pocket, and you are not afraid of losing.

Xing Cang said: "It is indeed an honor. Only a few special manors of the first-tier manor and the second-tier manor can open the Yinglang Bridge, because to open the Yinglang Bridge, you need to ask the envoys of the two masters. It’s impossible to get a response, and you don’t even have the qualifications to ask. We all have the glory of Changyi Manor today. But you don’t need to be too nervous. The old man walked across the Yinglang Bridge once, and he was trembling before he left. But that’s all after you walk through it. Instead of worrying about the road, it’s better to focus on the end. There may be many roads in the process, but there is only one correct end.”

What he said was meaningful, Tang Zhao just wanted to test him: "Back then, how many years ago?"

If it was before, Tang Zhao would have tried to test him a few words, but since he got the accurate information from Wei Changle, he has become more confident, and after he is sure, there is no need to test him, so he only cooperates with the expression of surprise and respect With a slightly apprehensive look, he said, "Could it be that you have also been favored by a first-tier manor before?"

Xing Cang shook his head and said, "What is a first-tier manor? Crawling under the feet of giants, they are all ants. For example, Tufei, he accepts the master's property and runs around like a minion. Can he also show favor to us?"

Tang Zhao thought to himself: You have a serious tone, he is right in front, do you want to speak louder?

Of course, as he said, the dilapidated households in the first-tier manor such as Changyi Manor are really not good.Changyi Manor can't even take out a swordsman, so even if Xing Cang despises him, there is no risk.

However, not all first-order manors are like this.According to the information obtained by Tang Zhao, there are at least three first-tier manors with worthy strengths, and there are more than one or two swordsmen.

Not to mention the authority of the first-order manor.

Fortunately, Cang also said just now that the first-tier manors can directly communicate with the messengers of the two.

Wang Liang's envoys are as mysterious as Wang Liang, and outsiders don't even know how many envoys it has, let alone their strength and identity.Among all the information in Yunzhou, there is only one that can be confirmed.

At this time, the convoy had already bypassed the front on Anxi and arrived at the foot of a cliff.

Tang Zhao came here for the first time, but he immediately noticed the incongruity.

There is a gap in the shadow here.

The gap here does not mean that the shadow is like a piece of cake that has been bitten by someone. Anyone can see the obvious flaws, but that there are some light-colored traces between the shadows, which cannot be seen from a distance, but can be seen immediately when you get close. see.

The shape of the gap is like a snake with the thick body of a bucket lying on a coil. Even the outline is not clear, but it is like a live snake, which makes people shudder. If you get closer to your ear, you can hear the "hissing" sound of spitting out letters. .

If you get closer, there is a trace of a big laugh at the snake's head, which seems to be the mouth of the snake. It may not be similar in shape to the gap in the gate of the abyss, but it is similar in spirit.

It is another color when it is in the mouth of the snake. It has the feeling of the water surface in the night. Although it is also black, there is a faint light of water waves.

"It really is it. The legendary envoy of Wangliang - the snake of the shadow."

A group of people stopped before Shizhang.Tufei stood at the front, and the white-haired swordsman in his manor held out a dark box for him.

The box was shaped like a snake's head, and the silver dark patterns on it were like snake scales.

Xing's pale beard moved, and he seemed to mutter: "So I took refuge in Pan..."

But the voice was very low, and no one heard it except the white fox who had been staring at him.

Open the box to reveal the treasures in the jade plate.

At first glance, it looks like a pile of dusty cloth, but when you look closely, it should be a long coat.

The third-tier manors in Wangliang Mountain have all kinds of names. You can call them whatever you want, and the second-tier manors have a certain number.And by default, after the third-tier manor is promoted to the second-tier, it will inherit this word.For example, Dark Star Manor was called Dark Jade Manor before it was promoted to the second level, and it was called Dark Star Manor after it was promoted.

Only the eight first-tier manors have ordinary names such as food, clothing, housing and transportation. These names have existed since the beginning and have not changed.The reports Tang Zhao collected did not mention the meaning of these names.But Tang Zhao himself guessed that it may be related to specific utensils with special purposes.

The Changyi Manor brought out the long clothes today, which confirmed Tang Zhao's guess.

The long clothes are probably related to Wang Liang's "imperial bestowal".

Tu Fei was standing by the Shadow River, chanting words, as if he was chanting words of prayer, the sword slave next to him knelt on the ground, and the white-haired swordsmen in the manor also silently prayed.They were so familiar that the bumpkins in the Changyi Manor were at a loss, and the people under Zi Xingcang could only hold their hands at their sides and watch silently.

I saw that I stretched out my hand and pulled out a piece from the plate of clothes...

shadow.

A shadow of clothes came out of the long clothes and turned into something like a ball of cotton.

vitality!

But it is not the sword essence, nor the pure vitality between heaven and earth, but the energy of special existence.

Pan Ying's rift suddenly stretched out, as if a snake sprang up and swallowed the vitality.

"Shadow Lang Bridge, get up!"

Tang Zhao took a look, he saw the river before he saw the bridge!
