My wife is Invincible East
Page 283
"Hmph, a bunch of trash!" Suddenly, the scholar named Guangyi looked at everyone with disdain and took out a pen from the bookcase behind him.
He drew a few strokes in the air and exclaimed, "Masterful brushwork!"
Zhu Moye was astonished to find that lotus flowers had actually appeared in the air, forming a bridge of immortality. Guangyi flicked the hem of his robe and stepped firmly on the lotus flowers.
He walked forward while giving instructions, and walked across the flower bridge amid the worship of the crowd.
Cheating, insider information! Zhu Moye felt like he could cry to death in front of the crowd.
The remaining one hundred people stared in amazement at Guangyi walking on the flower bridge. The latter looked at everyone proudly, walked across the river step by step, and crossed to the other side.
"Congratulations, young master!" The beautiful woman who had always been beside Guangyi bowed gracefully, and her eyes were full of admiration and even a little shyness when she looked at Guangyi.
Guangyi turned his head proudly and glanced at everyone. Zhu Moye didn't know if it was an illusion, but he felt as if the others had given him a special look.
I laughed out loud at the sky and climbed onto the bridge, for we are not ordinary people!
After throwing down a crooked poem, Guangyi strode forward, leaving behind a worshipful back.
"That's what a man should do!"
"I can take his place!"
Two voices suddenly rang out beside him, and Zhu Moye's body trembled for no apparent reason. He glanced at a white-faced man in his thirties with some hooligan habits, and a bold and imposing man who looked like no ordinary person. Zhu Moye quickly moved away!
How should I cross the river?
The wisdom of the masses is infinite. Zhu Moye slowly retreated a little. After all, according to what the little beauty said before, each method can only be used once, and it cannot be used again.
Working so hard to come up with a solution and then having it taken off by someone else is definitely the most regrettable thing.
Zhu Moye was clever, and the people around him weren't stupid either. He soon noticed that many people were looking at him differently. Their defensiveness was tinged with covetousness. They didn't want others to know how they would cross the river, but they also wanted to steal the method from others.
Zhu Moye had experienced too many life-and-death battles, and feeling the gazes of the people looking at each other, he felt a sense of danger for no reason.
The problem isn't the lack of resources, but the inequality! There are only so many ways to cross the river, no more, but with so many people, what can we do? Since we can't just invent more solutions, the natural solution is to reduce the number of people.
Zhu Moye was frightened by this thought and retreated cautiously again, but he didn't dare to retreat too far. Who knew if those beautiful fairies would mistake him for trying to escape and throw him directly into the river?
It would be too tragic if the Human Emperor, the future Lord of the Three Realms, died like this!
Seeing that not many people had reacted yet, Zhu Moye had already hidden his body behind a big tree. Fortunately, the forest was dense at the moment, and it was not easy to be discovered for a while.
Zhu Moye climbed up a tree and looked at the people below through the dense trunk.
The evil spirit below was getting more and more serious, and the suspicion in everyone's eyes had reached an extreme. Zhu Moye could foresee that a fight was inevitable!
Damn, this isn't a blind date to find love, it's clearly a romantic disaster!
Zhu Moye didn't have to wait long before a burly man in his thirties was bumped by someone who was afraid and wanted to retreat. He punched the man in the back of the head without hesitation, and the fight finally began.
Screams were heard and the sounds of fighting continued!
Everyone was already furious, knowing only that the fewer people there were, the safer they would be! Their initial goal of eliminating dissidents was simple: to prevent others from stealing their methods.
But as blood splattered everywhere, everything was over. Behind the blood were pairs of soul-devouring eyes!
The number of people was rapidly decreasing, and only a few people had taken the opportunity to hide. Zhu Moye noticed that the two men looked at him and hid in the trees. Zhu Moye did not point it out, nor did he dare to point it out.
Now, with his own body, he was completely a weakling in the battle. And if you fall behind, you will be beaten, and the weak will be bullied. Zhu Moye knew this truth very well.
Pointing out those two people is like playing with fire. If you fail to harm others, you will probably end up getting burned.
A series of light laughs came from the other side of the long river, which sounded very pleasant. But to Zhu Moye, it was like the sound of a death talisman. Zhu Moye did not need to pay attention to the fighting below. Looking at the people on the other side of the river, he knew that there were not many people left here.
Thirty, twenty, ten...
What's even more bizarre is that the dead people disappeared one by one on the spot, including their limbs and blood. When they reappeared, they had already drifted in the long river.
It was terrifying to look at Zhu Moye!
Finally, there were only two people left fighting below. The killer and the killed became clear amidst the roars and ran away.
Zhu Moye saw clearly that there were only five women left on the opposite side, which meant there were only five people left on this side, including the three people who were hiding with Zhu Moye.
"Well, I think there are only five methods left. With everyone's wisdom, it shouldn't be a problem to pass, right?" Zhu Moye said as he climbed down from the big tree.
Then he pointed to the other two sides and called out, "My two buddies, you can come out too. Now is the time for us to work together and overcome this difficult time!"
After all, he was once a formidable warrior, and even though he was now powerless, the courage in Zhu Moye's heart was not comparable to these people. In an instant, Zhu Moye had already figured out how the current situation would end.
Fighting further was clearly pointless. With only five people, it would only make everyone feel insecure. Furthermore, the two strongest men had both been wounded, leaving the remaining three in hiding. Putting themselves in their shoes, Zhu Moye had a 90% chance of victory, and those two guys weren't very strong either.
With Zhu Moye's own trial, the other two finally came out of hiding. Zhu Moye's eyes lit up and he almost laughed out loud. One was an old man in his fifties or sixties, and the other was only a child of fifteen or sixteen.
Compared to the two who survived the fight, Zhu Moye was more cautious towards these two. It is said that when walking in the martial arts world, there are three types of people you should not make enemies with: women, children, and the elderly!
Looking at the shrewdness in the eyes of these two guys, Zhu Moye doesn't want to make friends with them even if they don't have much fighting power. You never know when they might sell you out.
Chapter 723: Passing the Danger
"Everyone, let me introduce myself to you all?" Zhu Moye said, rubbing his hands together, looking very kind.
Two snorts, two parts of speechlessness!
Two snorts came from the two people fighting. They were very disdainful of Zhu Moye and the other three for standing up at this time, but they had already fought very hard at this time. Even though they saw that Zhu Moye and the other two posed almost no threat, they did not dare to attack again.
"Okay, then find a way yourself?" Zhu Moye said, walking towards the river and thinking hard. The others didn't want to pay attention to him, which just happened to go along with Zhu Moye's intention.
After all, a massacre had just taken place. Although we couldn't see anything at the moment, the tragedy was deeply rooted in people's minds.
Zhu Moye, this seemingly weak scholar, had an unchanged expression and a pale face. In his mind, the elderly and children were people who should not be offended. However, among these four people, Zhu Moye was the most sinister one!
Hearing his words and looking at his smile, it just makes people feel scared!
Seeing Zhu Moye standing by the river, the other four people also hurried over. The five of them stood side by side, looking at each other with concern. Looking at the dense trees in the jungle, Zhu Moye had an idea.
He wasn't in a hurry, glancing around at the other four people. This method required cooperation, but he needed to find someone he could trust.
"Brother, I am Ning Caichen, greeting you." Zhu Moye walked to a position six feet in front of the more seriously injured of the two people who had fought earlier, and bowed.
"What do you want to do?" The latter waved the machete in his hand. He was one of the rare people who appeared here with a machete in his hand. This was naturally the reason why the latter was able to survive.
The latter's face was dark and shiny, so he was probably a butcher. The other was probably a blacksmith, holding an unfinished iron sword. Both of them had the upper hand.
Zhu Moye suddenly felt a little regretful. He entered the room as a scholar. Maybe there was something in his bookcase, but unfortunately he gave it up so easily.
Maybe it can't be as magical as Guangyi, but at least it can show something. If nothing else, even if it's a fight, at least there will be a few more pieces of wood!
"Brother, there is a way that can allow the five of us to pass through. I wonder if you are interested?"
The butcher's eyes lit up and he shouted, "That depends on whether they agree or not."
This was the sentence Zhu Moye was waiting for. It is said that the longer a person lives, the more afraid he is of death, and the more murderous a person is, the more afraid he is of death. He knew that the butcher would agree.
Zhu Moye discussed it with the other three again, and all four agreed, so Zhu Moye told them the method!
The method was simple, but to people of this era, it was full of wonder. I think someone had already tried hanging a swing from a tree and swinging a person across. Unfortunately, the river was too wide, and the trees on this side disappeared before the river.
It is impossible to swing through the rope, so people gave up the idea.
Zhu Moye planned to build a winch here, using the force of the stirring to first throw one person over. That person was wrapped with a rope, and then the rope was tied to a big tree, doing the same on both sides, and then everyone could climb over along the rope.
In fact, this method is very simple and does not require anyone to die. The previous fighting was completely unnecessary.
pity!
Zhu Moye could only sigh at this!
Zhu Moye had already noticed when everyone was divided into four groups according to their directions. Perhaps because of the seeded players, there were more scholars on their side, at least half of them were scholars, followed by people of other professions.
Those who are righteous are usually butchers, and those who are unfaithful are usually scholars! This sentence is also true. Maybe the first ones to fight are not scholars, but regardless of the situation, regardless of innocence, those who attack those around them are mostly scholars!
Unfortunately, the scholar is useless, so when the fight starts, the scholar dies first and dies fastest!
Who would be the first to be thrown over? In the end, people decided that Zhu Moye would take the responsibility. At this time, no one could trust anyone else, so naturally the person who came up with the idea would try it.
If it fails, it will be Zhu Moye's bad luck. If it succeeds, Zhu Moye can help them get through. Even if Zhu Moye has the intention of crossing the river and destroying the bridge, it doesn't matter.
Anyway, it was Zhu Moye's idea, so they still had to find a solution on their own! As for any of the four people, the three of them unanimously expressed their disagreement.
In this regard, Zhu Moye could only sigh, who said that the ancients were stupid? There are many truths that modern people cannot understand, but their ancestors had already figured them out long ago.
Working together, they moved swiftly. Soon, they had rubbed the bark into a rope ten feet long, then fashioned a millstone and began stirring.
Release it with a single sound!
The four people ran away, and Zhu Moye's body was driven by the stirring force of the millstone, and flew rapidly to the other side of the river.
They were lucky enough to succeed on the first try, as the river wasn't too wide. Zhu Moye kept his promise, tied the rope, and the four of them climbed up one by one.
"Congratulations, young master!" Xiao Fan walked over in a delicate voice, with a hint of longing in her eyes.
"Okay, let's get going!" said Zhu Moye.
He had already noticed that the other four had come over, their excited expressions tinged with a hint of embarrassment. Zhu Moye sneered inwardly, thinking they were all a bunch of ungrateful people. It was obvious that they knew how powerful he was and were afraid of him.
Therefore, Zhu Moye did not show any intention of seeking credit. It is easy to take revenge but difficult to repay a favor!
The five people walked cautiously, each standing a few feet away from the others. The women, still smiling, looked at the five people as if they were laughing at something funny.
After another quick walk, Zhu Moye rubbed his stomach. He wondered if anyone else had noticed. Time hadn't changed here, and he wasn't even hungry!
Suddenly, the view ahead became clear, and voices were heard!
Xiao Fan looked at Zhu Moye with a grin and said, "Master, we've reached the second hurdle!"
Zhu Moye put on a look of horror and shock on his face, which made Xiaofan smile even brighter. Zhu Moye looked at the other four women, all with smiles on their faces. It was clearly a murderous look, but it was rare that the four women could interpret it as a smile!
Zhu Moye saw the people who came here before, and the people in front also saw them coming later. The people in front had contempt in their eyes, and the people behind looked at the people in front with anger.
There was a flame in front of them, and there were less than ten people standing near the flame!
Chapter 724 Overcoming Two Hurdles
Unlike the first hurdle where the river blocked the way, once the woman had passed away, she drifted away in the long river. This flame seemed to burn the body and scorch the soul. Even more terrifying, the flames were filled with continuous howling, clearly the voices of those who had perished in the flames before.
"Young Master, the first hurdle is the easiest, the second is the real test. This is the flame that refines your heart. Only those who hold an indelible obsession in their hearts can pass it. Otherwise, you will be trapped in the flames and melt away bit by bit!"
Xiao Fan said this with a smile, as if he was talking about something funny!
Zhu Moye looked a little strange after hearing these words, and the expressions of the four people who came with him changed drastically!
"Refine the mind?" Zhu Moye felt amused. If they were to compare the body, he would consider his current body to be a waste, but when it came to refining the mind, Zhu Moye felt really embarrassed to bully them.
"Young Master, we'll go first!" Xiao Fan said with a smile. When they walked towards the flames, the flames suddenly made way for them, and the five women walked past in an extremely charming manner.
Suddenly, a man rushed out and headed towards the crack, trying to take the opportunity to slip through.
A sneer rang out from the crowd, and Zhu Moye realized that it was the butcher who came with him. The latter was now full of murderous intent, and his fat body rushed towards the flames like a rolling bucket.
"Idiot, if it was really that easy, would so many people die here?"
In front of everyone's eyes, the butcher screamed, and his whole body was instantly engulfed in flames. The scream was extremely shrill, but what was even more terrifying was that the scream seemed to reach people's hearts, making them panic and afraid to pass.
The screams lasted for about an incense stick of time. Zhu Moye could see clearly that the butcher had actually died a long time ago, but the screams just kept on coming!
Zhu Moye stepped forward, because he found that the screams could actually move his mind. It was hard to imagine that after practicing for so long and experiencing all kinds of incredible things, here, the screams could actually disturb his mind.
No wonder these people didn't move. Maybe they heard too many screams and were afraid to go over.
Zhu Moye didn't hesitate. He was extremely clear-minded about his Dao heart. Even though he felt that this place was a little strange and could affect his Dao heart, it was not to the point of making him afraid.
But there is no need to wait until the end. You know, there are four directions here. Who knows whether people from other directions have reached the third level or even appeared in Lanruo Temple.
Obviously, the most mysterious place in this world is in Lanruo Temple. And if you want to get out of here, Lanruo Temple is the only way to go.
Zhu Moye didn't hesitate, which would have seemed like an idiotic move to others. Many people had tried this, but if even a little flame touched their skin or hair, they would be sucked in, engulfed in flames, either dead or alive.
Only by moving forward courageously can you walk out of the flames, otherwise you will be burned to death.
Zhu Moye did not come here just to test the waters as people thought, but strode in. The flames instantly surrounded Zhu Moye, turning him into a sea of fire.
Suddenly, Zhu Moye felt the pain in his body, the burning of real flames. It was as if his body was melting, the pain piercing his heart and into his bones.
Zhu Moye stared at the flame with a strange look in his eyes. He didn't realize anything from it. It was as if it was just a flame, testing people!
Zhu Moye ignored the pain in his body. He had endured far worse pain before, but this was nothing more than the flames. Suddenly, a realization struck him: the great river in the first level, the flames in the second, weren't meant for people like them.
It is aimed at mortals. Water is ordinary water, and fire is ordinary fire!
Zhu Moye strode out, and as he walked out of the flames, his body was intact again, and even his clothes didn't look burned at all.
"Young Master, you are so awesome, please!" Xiao Fan looked at Zhu Moye excitedly, holding Zhu Moye's hand, his expression full of joy.
