Cheng Kun is a very suspicious person. If he says he has a good relationship with you, it doesn’t necessarily mean he has a good relationship with you. He may sleep with your sister and kill your baby. If he says he wants to be loyal to a certain force, he
They may steal your resources to support their own power, and may even consider a way out from the first day they join the organization.
Of course, these sound like they are all thinking about themselves, and are nothing to self-centered people. But it is precisely because of people who only think about themselves that the world falls into frequent wars.
Cheng Kun is such a person, both in the original work and in this world. Otherwise, he would not have entered this forbidden land alone!
"You should light a lamp in the southeast corner before opening the bronze door!"
Zuo Zhou's loud reminder startled Cheng Kun, who was studying the bronze door wholeheartedly. When Cheng Kun turned around and saw Zuo Zhou, he didn't immediately run away in panic.
"General, he's not afraid of you!" Jiang Yuyan expressed that she was surprised. Is there anyone who is not afraid of the general? Is there any basis for this, or do you naively think that you can solve the problem with words?
Cheng Kun frowned. Of course he was not afraid, but he knew that running now was useless. Although there were multiple secret exits in this forbidden area, there was only one way through the Bronze Gate, which was blocked by Li Yuanfang. Unless he could catch the girl
Make a threat, otherwise there is no chance of facing Li Yuanfang.
However, Cheng Kun still relied on something, and followed Zuo Zhou's words: "Well, I have heard of the saying that people light candles and ghosts blow out lamps, but I'm not sure what kind of different kind of coffin the bronze door is."
Zuo Zhou shook his hand in a funny way, "No, you misunderstood. Lighting a lamp in the southeast corner can shake me before I come in. That is your only chance to escape today."
The corners of Cheng Kun's eyes twitched wildly, and he forced a smile, "The general is joking, but in fact, I have always believed that there is no unchanging friendship in the world, only unchanging interests!"
"Well said, your words fully explain why people hang capitalists from street lamps."
Cheng Kun (⊙_⊙)? "Why should I hang on... No, I want to tell the general that I can bring you huge benefits!"
Zuo Zhoute had already taken out his big sword, "Go on and see if I can appreciate your so-called interests."
Cheng Kun felt cold all over when he looked at the huge sword that was almost the same as a door panel. Are you trying to turn it into a pulp?
"The general bypassed the Ming Cult members and entered the forbidden area. He must have already known about the existence of the Bronze Gate!"
Zuo Zhou looked at the huge bronze door dozens of meters high behind him. Haha, behind the bronze door is the secret of immortality. Am I going to tell you?
"Tell me about it." Zuo Zhou put the extra large sword on his shoulder and walked towards Cheng Kun step by step.
Cheng Kun's eyelids jumped wildly. He followed Zuo Zhou's rhythm step by step and said quickly like a rapper: "The Ming Cult originated from the Zoroastrian Cult in the Western Regions. Although the teachings have undergone many changes since they were spread here, the core of it is not the same.
Not much has changed. We have all heard the saying of 'earth, water, fire and wind', which are various forces that emerged after the birth of the world, and Zoroastrianism worships fire among them, and the individual is the fire god Zhurong!"
Zuo Zhou didn't stop moving forward, Cheng Kun's back directly pressed against the stone wall, and then he started to rub against the stone wall in circles.
"The God of Fire Zhurong is not an abstract definition, but does exist. It's just that before the great change of heaven and earth, the God of Fire Zhurong disappeared. The main altar of Zoroastrianism is in Persia in the Western Region. The reason why I came here in the first place is a big one.
One reason is this seal!"
"Yes, you heard it right, it's a seal!" Cheng Kun didn't wait for Zuo Zhou to have any questions and explained in advance, "Back then, the God of Fire Zhu Rong tore himself into two parts, one representing kindness and the other
The side represents evil, and the good side has become the god that Zoroastrianism has always worshiped, while the evil god representing evil is sealed here."
"Well, keep talking, I'm quite interested!" Zuo Zhou didn't see his pace stop, and just continued to approach step by step along the edge of the stone wall. He quite enjoyed this kind of torture.
Cheng Kun swallowed his saliva and continued: "The evil god is very weak compared to the good god, otherwise he would not be sealed in the bronze door. In addition to being responsible for guarding, the Mingjiao leaders in the past dynasties are also responsible for adding...
Focus on maintaining the seal, and the way to strengthen the seal is the Great Shift of the Universe. This is not only a very powerful technique, but also a means to open and strengthen the seal. But now that Yang Dingtian is dead, the evil god will soon
Break out of the seal."
"So? How do you know all this?"
Cheng Kun continued to retreat, "This is what my junior sister, the former wife of the leader, told me. The evil god is very weak and has been sealed for so long. He is no match for us. As long as we catch him and destroy his will
, then we can obtain his Evil God Flame ability, this is what we are going to do!”
"Tsk, tsk, so, a man still has to have his own little treasury, and he can't tell his wife everything."
Cheng Kun: "..." I'm telling you about the Evil God's Flame. Are you struggling with the issue of the small treasury?
"That's what you told others, right? Then why did you come here alone?" Zuo Zhou asked a very heart-wrenching question. Since you are not sincere with other collaborators, who will cooperate with you?
"General, it doesn't matter whether you are sincere or not. What matters is that only I can open the bronze door!"
"I am very confident, but I believe there is no door in the world that cannot be opened with force. Even if it looks very hard, its material is only bronze after all!"
After Zuo Zhou finished speaking, Jiang Yuyan looked cooperatively at the bronze door with her hands, and the thumping sound was a bit pleasant.
Cheng Kun sneered, "The general is joking. The situation inside is complicated. How can it be destroyed with brute force? If there is a mechanism, everything will be destroyed."
Zuo Zhou was happy, "In other words, the method of opening the door is also mechanical, and it's on you?"
Cheng Kun's expression changed, and he immediately shot toward the door. Well, what was a little funny was that the two of them circled around the stone wall, and he was already close to the door.
Huh, are you young and inexperienced? Do you think you can defeat everyone just because you are strong? However, Li Yuanfang is superb in swordsmanship and this is a mountain. I may not be able to successfully escape by relying on the earth escape method, but he must not have thought that I really
His intention was not to rush out of the door, but to kidnap his woman!
Well, calculating his reaction speed, the attack should have arrived by now. I dodge and then rush towards the woman!
In fact, a large part of the reason why Zuo Zhou is so calm is that this forbidden area is dug in the mountains, and earth escape techniques are not easy to use at all. Maybe there is such a thing as mountain escape technique, but he has never seen it so far. Another reason
The terrain of this forbidden area is very narrow, and his sword blade can easily fill all the passages as long as it flies out. Cheng Kun has no ability to avoid it.
It's just...what's going on with this sudden lazy ass rolling around?
Zuo Zhou was confused by Cheng Kun's mysterious operation. You just ran out without losing any time, rolled over, and rushed towards Jiang Yuyan, ah...
Jiang Yuyan was also stunned. When she saw Cheng Kun grabbing him with a ferocious expression, she subconsciously showed an expression of fear. Then she looked up and found that Zuo Zhou didn't look nervous at all. She couldn't help but glared at Cheng Kun boredly and angrily.
Why are you so weak? There is no chance for others to pretend to be weak.
Cheng Kun is also a master. Logically speaking, as a master, you should always have some intuition. Unfortunately, at this time, any intuition had no effect. He just saw the beautiful woman reaching out to him in panic.
He sneered at this, wasn't this given to him to catch? He stretched out his hand and clasped the beautiful woman's wrist, and then... he felt that the power was lost for some reason. Before he could recover, he clicked twice.
With a loud sound, the two forearms had been broken.
Then there was a sharp pain down below, and I rolled my eyes and threw my head back and fainted!
"You kicked me too hard. If you were kicked to death by him, how would I explain to Xie Xun?"
Zuo Zhou looked at Cheng Kun's legs that were twitching even when he was unconscious due to the severe pain, "Find something to tie him up, or it would be troublesome to knock him after a while."
"Don't blame me. He just reached out and grabbed it. He obviously had bad intentions. It was just a subconscious reaction." Jiang Yuyan said as a golden snake crawled out of her sleeves, rolled up Cheng Kun's hands and tied them behind his back.
"If he dares to move, you will bite him." Jiang Yuyan ordered, and the golden snake nodded.
"Did you ask this snake to raise...a dog? And it sticks out its tongue!"
"Xiao Jin's tongue is much more flexible than a dog." Jiang Yuyan emphasized.
Naturally, Zuo Zhou would not argue with her on such a matter, so he reached out and touched Cheng Kun's body. Since he dared to come alone, he must have something to turn on the mechanism.
"General, do you want that evil god flame?"
"Haha, what this guy said may not be true. After all, it sounds like the way that the Fire God Zhu Rong harmed his own cultivation in order to survive the way of heaven. But he obviously didn't succeed, or he didn't completely succeed. The so-called good one
One side did not survive, but the weakest evil side survived. But the evil side may not be as easy to capture as Cheng Kun said, after all, he still has many things that he has not explained clearly."
"What about?" Jiang Yuyan glanced at Cheng Kun lying on the ground. What a bad guy!
"For example, where did Yang Dingtian go? What is the method of the Bronze Gate? If he knew it, why didn't he come earlier and had to wait for this time. I thought about it carefully and found that this time may not be the most important. After all, Zhao
Min spread the rumors on a spur-of-the-moment basis. It is very likely that he needed time to prepare, and what kind of preparation would take more than ten years?"
"In my understanding, it is either a special creature or plant, which takes a long time to cultivate. Or it is a kind of martial arts, which takes a long time to practice. Or it is some kind of magic weapon, which takes a long time to cast.
.If half of what he said is true, it would be the latter two."
"Look, this should be the key!" Zuo Zhou took out a set of metal iron plates from Cheng Kun's arms. Each iron plate was of different sizes and had various special patterns, which seemed to be some kind of writing.
"Huh? These words... seem to be Sanskrit from the Western Regions."
Jiang Yuyan was shocked, "The general is so knowledgeable, he actually knows Sanskrit?"
Zuo Zhou stood up with the iron plate, "It's not Sanskrit, but it's very similar, and it should be of the same language family. I also grew up at the border, and I can also speak Turkic. It makes sense for me to understand it."
Zuo Zhou came to the bronze door with the iron plate in his hand. After a brief inspection, there was nothing similar to a keyhole, but there were some special patterns on it. If he didn't have a special iron plate in his hand, it wouldn't be possible.
It is easy to equate these patterns with keyholes.
Zuo Zhou didn't waste any time and pressed the iron plate shut. However... the iron door didn't move at all.
"Hey, I know it's not that simple. If it's just a key, it won't take long to stamp the pattern and study the key." Zuo Zhou threw the iron plates aside in disgust, and then took out a huge sword, "
We still have to open the door violently!"
Valley Gou
"How about you try this on me?"
Jiang Yuyan handed over a set of strange-looking metal plaques from the side. The texture was brownish red. Under the dark light, it seemed that magma was flowing in it. Especially when it was close to the bronze door, there was even a faint glow.
Zuo Zhou looked at her, took the metal plate and examined it, and found that the pattern on it was 99% similar to the iron plates just now.
"Where did you get this from?"
"Copied from the secret room of Anyunshan's family."
"I was asking where you put it just now. I didn't see you holding it?"
"I've learned how to hide daggers, so just hide them on your body!"
"Don't you feel uncomfortable?"
"A little bit, just get used to it."
Hearing this, Zuo Zhou lowered his head and glanced at Jiang Yuyan's ravine, and said with a smile: "When this is over, I will teach you how to hide weapons using the Ghost King's Whip Technique. You can control every muscle in your body to move weapons, so that you won't always hide them in one place."
, will cause muscle fatigue.”
"Okay, then the general must teach me well, and every muscle must be taught properly!"
"Hey, I feel like this won't be a serious teaching."
Zuo Zhou was quite looking forward to it, so he turned around and pressed Jiang Yuyan's sign on the door, and then... there was still no response.
"Why is it useless? Could it be that the An family and his son were also fake?" Jiang Yuyan was slightly surprised.
But Zuo Zhou shook his head, "The An family and his son are also spies of the Qinglong Society, and they happen to be from Yang Dingtian's faction. The key they found should not be fake. I'm afraid there are other conditions. Sure enough, they have to use barbarian methods.
force!"
"Wait a moment!" Zuo Zhou was about to swing the extra large sword but was stopped by Jiang Yuyan, "General, calm down and save some strength to train others later."
"What you said makes sense, what else can you do?"
Jiang Yuyan rubbed her hands, "I consulted Lu Qinghou in the Hanlin Academy, and also found some comparisons in the library. The patterned characters on this metal sign are actually a kind of martial arts. I don't know what it is called, but I have practiced it.
I felt really weird after that.”
"What kind of evil method?"
"The moves on it are extremely lethal and weird and difficult to prevent. That's all. Moves like this only have some effect the first time it is used. And the way its internal energy operates is even weirder, unlike ordinary infuriating energy.
It is contrary to the operating rules, but it can produce a special kind of true energy, but this true energy is harmful to the body and must be eliminated immediately, otherwise it will cause damage to the internal organs if it is held in the body."
Hearing this, Zuo Zhou lowered his head and looked at the sign in his hand, "So this is a technique that requires special weapons?"
"Yes, it must be matched with the brand. Because this kind of true energy is extremely viscous, and it cannot be released without the brand."
Natural energy that cannot be retained in the body for a long time to strengthen the body is not considered true energy. It can only be said to be similar to the special combat skills that come with weapons.
"How's the power?"
"I haven't used it on enemies yet, but it's very beautiful."
"..."
Zuo Zhou didn't know how to evaluate Jiang Yuyan's adjectives for a while, so he just gave her the token and let her use it.
Jiang Yuyan did not hesitate, she pressed the token on the door again, and then started running that special technique. She saw bright red streams entering the token, and the token instantly transformed into bright orange.
A red, terrifying heat wave bloomed, and the entire bronze door was covered with all kinds of crystal shining threads in an instant.
"It's interesting. It's definitely better than blasting with brute force." Zuo Zhou put away the huge sword without saying anything.
Boom boom boom!
A dull and loud sound filled the entire forbidden area. If the interior of the forbidden area was not complex enough, the sound might have spread throughout most of the Bright Summit.
The loud noise also successfully woke up Cheng Kun, but before he fully woke up, a foot appeared in front of him...
Zuo Zhou kicked Cheng Kun unconscious again and then pressed his veins. Sure enough, there was a strange evil fire energy in Cheng Kun's body. Its stickiness was extremely strong. When it came into contact with Zuo Zhou's innate true energy, it actually adhered to it.
It wants to extend along with the true energy.
Zuo Zhou is not afraid. After all, the sign is behind him. If there is any problem, just send it directly to the sign. Unfortunately, the evil fire energy has not yet shown any effect. The sword intention of the Styx Sword Technique that Zuo Zhou has comprehended is
Cut it into pieces.
"So... Cheng Kun has been looking for a brand and practicing Kungfu these years? It wasn't until he discovered that there were a lot of rumors that focused everyone's attention on the Mingjiao, so he had to come here?"
"Probably so!"
Jiang Yuyan agreed, while staring at the bronze door. The door was too big, and it took a while to open it. However, when it was opened just a little bit, the surging heat wave had already dried out the two people's skin.
"Is this the so-called evil god's flame? There are some ways to do it."
Jiang Yuyan listened to Zuo Zhou's evaluation and continued: "It is very strong, but... it seems to be just a deep application of the natural power of ordinary flames. I don't feel any difference from ordinary flames at all. There is no difference between it and ordinary flames."
What special true meaning of martial arts."
Zuo Zhou rubbed his chin and squeezed in before the bronze door was fully opened. This was a large stone platform, but it covered an area of about three hundred square meters from front to back. There was a body sitting on the edge of the stone platform.
The cross-legged mummy, with its wide clothes trimmed with gold threads, looks quite luxurious.
When Zuo Zhou came to the mummy, he first looked under the stone platform. The red light and heat waves in the sky came from below. It was a whirlpool of constantly rotating lava. Just by looking at it, he felt that the violent suction force was trying to pull it away.
Zuo Zhou was pulled down.
"General, be careful."
"It's okay." Zuo Zhou waved his hand casually, "As long as you use the true energy to adhere to the surface of the body, it won't be easily sucked off. Let's see what's going on with Yang Dingtian."
"Is this Yang Dingtian? They are already mummified, can they still be recognized?"
"There can't be anyone else at this place, but we can't recognize it. People from the Ming Cult should be able to recognize it." Zuo Zhou said, reaching out and taking out a quick cloth from the arms of the mummy.
The cloth was obviously torn from his robe and written in blood.
The content is similar to what Zuo Zhou described when he read the original work. Basically, he discovered the affair between Cheng Kun and his wife, and such a cuckold directly drove him crazy.
In order to be afraid of being harmed by Cheng Kun and time was tight, he could only hide inside the bronze door. Before entering, he handed over the Mingjiao Holy Fire Order to his confidant and ordered him to find the White-browed Eagle King and reopen the bronze door to welcome him.
come out.
Yes, what Zuo Zhou didn’t expect was that Yang Dingtian did not die after entering the Bronze Gate, but went into seclusion to heal his injuries. In terms of choice, Yang Dingtian did not make a mistake. The Bronze Gate was indeed the best.
Not to mention that Cheng Kun couldn't get in even if he found it, and he couldn't get out either.
Then the result became obvious. He didn't know what happened to his confidant. Maybe he died suddenly on the way? Maybe he stole the Holy Fire Order because of his wealth, or for some reason, he couldn't be rescued anyway.
.
Yang Dingtian... was so starved to death!
"Hiss! It's a bit miserable!" Jiang Yuyan grinned, looking at the mummy full of sympathy.
Zuo Zhou couldn't stop laughing, and then looked back. The content behind was obviously written by Yang Dingtian in a very emotional state. He sensed the betrayal of his confidants, and while feeling extremely angry, he also knew that he was not going to die soon. So in addition,
He also left a blood letter and hid it under his buttocks.
"Under the buttocks..." Jiang Yuyan slowly pushed the mummy, and then saw the blood book under the buttocks. This blood book was different, it was actually written by a piece of human skin.
Zuo Zhou glanced at the mummy, and sure enough, there was a piece missing on the chest of the mummy. Looking at the densely packed small characters on it, it was very embarrassing.
Jiang Yuyan curiously reached out and picked up the human skin, and her whole delicate body suddenly stopped moving.
"No!" Zuo Zhou felt a soul wave very keenly. He was very familiar with this. When he killed Jie Yin, this wave could be seen everywhere.
He stretched out his hand to hold Jiang Yuyan's shoulders, and at the same time entered her conscious space with the ability of the dream space. He felt a little bored. He also admitted that this way of attacking the spiritual soul was indeed very powerful and difficult to prevent, but why was there always someone there?
How about using this trick in front of him?
Could it be that he felt that he was too strong and couldn't be beaten head-on, so he had to use these mysterious powers?
…
Almost when Zuo Zhou and Jiang Yuyan entered the dream space at the same time, the four Emei juniors in the backyard of Guangmingding suddenly became confused.
Deng Yin fainted for some unknown reason and threw his whole body on Li Yingqiong's chest. Thanks to Li Yingqiong's nerves, otherwise this slap would have directly knocked her away.
