Chapter 388 Unknown Person
Ying Zheng returned to Xianyang Palace, stood on the 120th floor steps, slightly closed his eyes, felt the howling wind in Xianyang, and sighed.
After getting the tears of ice, all this could be over. The little fox Daji smelled Ying Zheng's breath, ran out of Xianyang Palace, leaned at Ying Zheng's feet, and shouted softly.
But this time, Ying Zheng ignored her. So she lay quietly and no longer made noise. Bai Qi, the white god of death, followed Ying Zheng, stood silently and did not disturb him.
The white of the god of death on the war demon armor dissipated for no reason in the air, turning back to the deep dark blue, and the two demon-like bat wings also converged and turned back to the cloak - Bai Qi lifted his awakening, and then said silently: "A Zheng, I have been delayed in the palace for more than ten days. Our army should arrive at the Mausoleum City soon-to-be-I have to leave."
"Well... it will make Xiang Yu and Liu Bang suspicious..." Ying Zheng had already closed his eyes and said softly, "Go——Take Arthur, Zhong Wuyan and the 100,000 Imperial Guards, and there are also corpse demons..."
"The matters on the front battlefield are fully handed over to you..." "Don't worry! A Zheng, I will definitely help you defeat all the enemies!" Bai Qi looked at Ying Zheng and said firmly, "Then I will leave..."
Bai Qi looked at Ying Zheng deeply, and then walked down the steps step by step. Suddenly, a long roar came from afar, and a string of black afterimages flashed on the palace ground. The dark ghost leopard appeared in front of Bai Qi, leaning down, and roaring silently.
Bai Qi reached out and pressed the huge head of the ghost leopard, and then stepped on its back. "Ah Qi..." Ying Zheng suddenly opened his eyes, stared at Bai Qi, who was covered with war magic armor, and said slowly, "Follow me... have you ever regretted it?"
"No!" Bai Qi raised his head and stared at Ying Zheng on the 120 steps, saying without hesitation, "I have never regretted following you, and I will never regret it!"
Ying Zheng was silent, after a long time, and then said, "This - it may be our last one..."
"You will definitely succeed! A Zheng." Bai Qi said firmly to Ying Zheng, "I will persist until you succeed!" "You will definitely rule the whole world!"
Ying Zheng stared at the endless deep blue sky above, was silent for a moment, and then said to Bai Qi: "Go."
So Bai Qi gently pressed the head of the ghost leopard with his hand. The ghost leopard immediately turned around quickly and ran towards the direction of the palace gate. Seeing Bai Qi's floating dark blue cloak gradually fading away in his sight, Ying Zheng also turned around and walked into the Xianyang Palace.
——Black ground, Afang Palace—In the quiet and deserted darkness, there was only a firefly-colored halo bright. Zhang Liang and Mulan walked quietly into the depths of Afang Palace along the unfinished corridor. Each palace they passed by was built with only the outer contours and the inner hollows. All the things they walked by were naked gray-haired Kuilang staring at his two green eyes, twitching his sharp nose, and patrolling around the two. Once he saw something suspicious, it would run over and look hard and sniff.
"We have sneaked into the Afang Palace very deep. All we see are empty house embryos. We neither see any suspicious places nor Bian Que..." Hua Mulan said with her eyebrows, "It's really strange..."
"Well... it's really strange..." Zhang Liangliang looked carefully on the wall along the way with a fire-colored halo in his hand. The wall was not decorated at all, it was just a simple rough stone wall, and there was nothing worth observing. On the ground, there was a black soil without even the floor, and there was no useful information to give to Zhang Liang.
However, this is actually good. The walls and the ground are built so roughly that there is no hidden defense measures for mechanical techniques - this saves them a lot of trouble. Not to mention anything else, at least it is safer to go along the way, and there will be no invisible mechanical techniques traps that kill people.
"Huh..." As he spoke, Zhang Liang found that in the afterglow of his firefly-colored halo, there was a black thing lying quietly on the ground. Zhang Liang was surprised and immediately moved his hand to the black unknown object and illuminated it with the firefly-colored energy halo. It was a black spherical object the size of a fist. The hemisphere on the surface was grayish-white, with a solidified red and black pupil in the middle, and several black tentacles were grown underneath - it looked very much like the eyeball of some kind of large creature. However, this eyeball was broken, and there was a long and deep crack extending to the bottom along the side of its pupil. Black and blue blood overflowed from the crack and flowed over half of the eyeball. While watching carefully, Zhang Liang's brows gradually frowned.
At this time, Mulan also turned her eyes over. When she saw the unidentified eyeball lying on the ground, she couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice: "Ghost Eye Guard!" That's right, the dead object with the eyeball-shaped eyeball is the secret object of the Qin Chu royal family - Ghost Eye Guard. The last time Mulan encountered many enemies in Lingcheng was because she was tracked down by the whereabouts of the Ghost Eye Guard, she had a strong disgust for this evil thing that could hide in shadows and silently monitor. So she recognized this thing at a glance.
"Well... Qin Chu's secret ghost eye guard, fortunately, it's dead... But we were still careless. When we came in, we completely ignored the existence of this kind. In such an important place, they would definitely place ghost eye guards to monitor the prison guards..." Zhang Liang said with a serious expression. He was now doubting whether their whereabouts were being monitored by other living ghost eye guards and reported them to Ying Zheng and Bian Que. But then he thought about it, Zhang Liang discovered the contradiction again: "No, although we ignored the existence of ghost eye guards, but before I came in, I had already spread and perceived the situation of the entire Afang Palace. If there was ghost eye guards, I would definitely be able to detect it - unless there was no ghost eye guard, or all the ghost eye guards were dead!"
Zhang Liang stared at the dead ghost-eyed guard on the ground, and his face became solemn: "The ghost-eyed guards are dead... Could it be that there are other invaders besides us?" Listening to Zhang Liang's inference, Mulan, who was surprised and surprised, just wanted to speak out, but stopped silently.
Zhang Liang's hand suddenly pressed on Mulan's shoulder, signaling her not to speak. At that moment, he subconsciously spread his perception, only putting a small range, but greatly improving the sensitivity of perception. Finally, in the darkness of this corridor where he could not see his fingers, he noticed a strange aura - there is a third person here!
So Zhang Liang calmed down and signaled that Mulan would also remain silent, but for a moment, Zhang Liang immediately said: "By the way, Lanlan, has the strange disease cured? Will the magic blue in your body be spontaneously dissipated?" This time, Zhang Liang did not lower the volume of his speech and changed the topic.
"It's not going well, but when leaving Lingcheng, King Liu Bang of Han gave me another blue heart. A new blue heart continues to release magic blue to provide consumption. There will be no problem in a short period of time..." Mulan of course heard that Zhang Liang was deliberately diverting the topic to divert the other party's attention, so she naturally cooperated with Zhang Liang and sang and reconciled with him.
Hearing the call of the gray wolf, the eyes of the two men moved quickly. Zhang Liang opened the ancient book of Yanling without hesitation, surging the demon blue energy, awakening the Yanling text on the ancient book. The two pages of Yanling text emitted a large amount of firefly-colored light under Zhang Liang's awakening. Countless lights gathered together and condensed into a strong firefly-colored light directly shining towards the depths of the corridor. The speed of the light exceeded everything. Under the direct illumination of the firefly-colored light, everything in the depths of the corridor was illuminated in an instant - a man wrapped in a white robe appeared in the sight of Zhang Liang and Mulan. The man was exposed to the vision of the two men, but he was not panicked at all.
Standing quietly and quietly. Zhang Liang looked at the face of this unknown person, but found that he was wearing a ferocious dragon-faced mask on his face. Through the dragon's eye hole, the man stared deeply at Zhang Liang and the ancient book spread out in Zhang Liang's hand. "Breaking Blade-" When Zhang Liang and the unknown person stared at each other, Mulan went out, holding the giant sword Cangxiao with one hand, and condensed a cherry red sword energy and rushed into the position where the Baizai man was. But at the moment when Mulan moved, the man in white robe moved at all. He paused his foot and slightly escaped under the ground.
When Mulan flashed in a flash, the figure of the man in the white robe had escaped from the ground, and the sword energy bursting from her body pounced on the air again. Mulan frowned slightly, as fast as her, and had never been avoided twice in a row. It seemed that this person was not simple... But at this moment she was still more shocked - even if that person was very skilled and could avoid her attack, how did he disappear flat after avoiding it? This was a closed corridor around, and the ground was just naked black soil. It was impossible for him to sneak in secret...
"What's wrong? Lanlan, where is someone else?" Zhang Liang saw that the man in white robe disappeared, and walked over in the void and asked Mulan.
"I don't know..." Mulan shook her head and said in confusion, "Suddenly she escaped from the spot."
"Escape in place..." Zhang Liang looked at the black land without any abnormality in confusion, then closed his eyes, spread his perception into the void, and carefully searched. "No! He is still near us!" Zhang Liang suddenly opened his eyes and said.
"Still here?" Mulan asked in surprise. At this moment, the gray-haired Kuilang ran to the front, sniffed carefully, and then hovered his head at the place where the man in the white robe had just stood.
Gray-haired Kuilang sniffed repeatedly, and at the same time stretched out his claws to scatter it tentatively, but the scatter did not dig up the black soil, but made the ground rippling like water. Then, a black shadow of one meter radiant appeared on the ground where the man stood.
Looking at the black shadows emerging on the ground, Zhang Liang and Mulan looked at each other in confusion. Then Zhang Liang closed his eyes, spread his perception and looked under the ground. After a while, Zhang Liang opened his eyes and said to Mulan firmly: "There is still a lot of space under the ground, and there is no suspicious danger... That person is also below."
"This should be a secret passage built using the same magic principle as the Ghost Eye Guard." Without too much hesitation, Zhang Liang and Mulan jumped into the dark shadow on the ground with the gray-haired Kuilang.
Through the dark and invisible black shadows, they landed in a darker stratigraphic space below, and a deep smell of earth came to us. Zhang Liang opened the ancient Yanling book and woke up the Yanling text on the pages again, and used their light to gather into a bright light source.
As soon as the light shone, Zhang Liang and the others saw clearly that the stratigraphic space they were in was actually a wide tunnel extending underground. There was a door open every ten meters on both sides of the tunnel.
The quiet and long tunnel extends far away, and there are many silent and dark cave doors. In the underground space of Afang Palace, which has a unique cave, anyone will feel inexplicably strange and terrifying. Zhang Liang and Mulan also subconsciously frowned. The secrets hidden in this Afang Palace may be beyond their imagination, but it is unpredictable that many crises buried in front of them, so they hesitated and did not know whether they should continue to move forward.
But the gray-haired Kuilang was very calm. Maybe he was a wild beast after all, and he was used to the breath of the earth. Therefore, he was not afraid after entering the underground space. Instead, he felt as if he had devoted himself to the deep embrace of Mother Earth.
So before Zhang Liang could spread and explore the situation on this layer, the gray-haired Kuilang ran forward curiously. Seeing the gray-haired wolf moving forward, Zhang Liang and Mulan naturally had no time to stop, so they followed him immediately and wanted to stop it. But the gray-haired Kuilang looked at a hole everywhere and rushed in.
"Er Hui!" Mulan saw the gray wolf rushing in resolutely, and immediately shouted in surprise. But the gray wolf's body had already penetrated into the cave gate. There was no way, and Mulan and Zhang Liang had to follow in cautiously. Zhang Liang turned the ancient book that released the light of fireflies towards the cave gate, and the light shot in, immediately illuminating the entire cave.
I saw a square room inside the cave door, but there was nothing inside, just an empty room. I felt like the Afang Palace in the hollow on the ground was "another empty room..." Mulan looked at the empty earth room in confusion, and saw the gray-haired Kuilang lying quietly in it, so she walked straight towards it and wanted to call it out.
But as soon as he stepped into the cave door, Mulan subconsciously stopped, and a strange feeling turned into surprise and suspicion, which surged into her pupils. "What's wrong, Lanlan." Zhang Liang, who was walking in the void, turned around and looked at Mulan, who was stuck in the footsteps and looked suspicious, and asked.
"So soft." Mulan opened her eyes and said. "Huh?" Zhang Liang's eyes were confused. "The ground in this room is so soft." Mulan explained, looking at her feet subconsciously, Zhang Liang also moved her eyes over. She saw Mulan gently step, but her feet half stepped into the black soil on the ground. The soil was indeed very soft.
Zhang Liang immediately understood, so he swept away his eyes and found that the ground in the entire room was fluffy in the soil. If you step on it, you will obviously feel the softness of the ground.
Deep surprise surged between Zhang Liang's eyebrows - "How could this be the case?" - The soil is soft, and there is no problem with it, but it is on the ground. However, Zhang Liang and Mulan are now in the stratigraphic space below the ground. The soil under the ground has accumulated and squeezed for countless years under natural gravity. The density and hardness are very high. If you step on one foot, you will feel that it is no different from stepping on a stone.
When I was in the tunnel outside, Mulan felt like she was walking on a stone slab. She didn't bury her head and didn't believe that she was stepping on the soil under her feet. However, how could the land inside the cave door be so soft? It was obviously all high-density soil that was squeezed under the ground for years, so it should be very hard.
"This soil... looks like it has been flipped by someone, so it's so soft..." Zhang Liang looked at the fluffy black land under him and said thinking.
