Chapter 110 Infernal Purgatory(1/2)
The sky is dark, the mountains are covered with snow, and a winding official road passes through the mountains and snowfields.
Thin hailstones were carried in the wind and snow, and the snow and wind were like knives, scraping the flesh and bones, and the chill was overwhelming.
On the official road heading south, three horses galloped southward.
The hurried hoofs of the horse stirred up snow dust upwards. When it collided with the falling wind and snow in mid-air, it formed a thin straight line, following the horse's movement.
Feng Bei and his party of four abandoned their carriage on the roadside, put on the cloaks they had prepared in advance, and headed on their way in the wind and snow.
"call……"
Breathing out a cloud of white mist, Feng Bei rode behind Zheng Shan, speechless all the way.
Zheng Xiu was in a complicated mood.
I never imagined that the nightmare would come true.
In the dream he had on the night of January 1st, he and Feng Bei were galloping, one was full and the other was overflowing. He hoped that the ending of the nightmare would not come true, and that Feng Bei's slap would not turn him into ashes.
"Your son looks like you. He looks like you from the left and looks like you from the right. He looks like you."
Behind him, Feng Bei suddenly said in a strange tone.
"Uh, that's normal."
Zheng Xiu answered loudly and was suddenly given a mouthful of Fengxue.
"But, it's so similar."
Zheng Xiu was silent.
Feng Bei asked again: "Where have you been these years?"
"Retreat, live in seclusion, and have children." Zheng Xiu answered bravely.
"Twenty years ago, senior, why did you save me?"
Feng Bei grasped Zheng Xiu's clothes tightly with both hands.
"The wind is too strong, I can't hear you! Get on your way first!"
"..."
It's a long way to Shuzhou.
Even if they travel day and night, the journey is expected to take ten and a half days.
In the past, books always said that a horse with blood can travel a thousand miles in a day, but that was nonsense.
Ancient roads were not like modern ones. They were paved with cement or asphalt and were smooth and easy to walk on. Even the official roads for commercial and military use were full of mud and potholes due to wind and rain. In some places, there were stones, slippery snow, and rivers.
The road is complicated, so it would be good if you could travel hundreds of miles a day.
A night of silence.
It's dawn.
The four of them stayed overnight in a small village to rest.
Expect to get back on the road after two hours of rest.
While storing the horse, Dou Xie secretly said that this macho man was a legendary reclusive master who could enter and exit the darkness seven times, and secretly came over to ask for tips on how to get promoted.
Zheng Xiu glanced at Dou Xie and saw that the injury on his face was much better.
In fact, this kid Douxie is very motivated and has no shortcomings except his tough talk.
After several attempts to shirk the situation without success, Zheng Xiu gave a compromise suggestion in the hope that he would not spoil the child even if he gave it a try.
"Since you are a 'literary', you can't always think about copying other people's things. After all, what you copy is not your own. You can try to integrate your own understanding into the text, then transform it into thaumaturgy, and mix it into your own
Emotions may lead to different thaumaturgy."
"What the seniors said is true! What about, for example?" Dou Xie understood it, but he didn't seem to understand it. He heard it, but he didn't fully understand it.
Zheng Shan smiled slightly: "I heard that you are one of the twenty-eight constellations?"
Dou Xie didn't know why Zheng Shan suddenly changed the topic, but he still puffed up his chest and said proudly: "Yes!"
"I also heard that your strength is unsatisfactory among the twenty-eight stars?"
Dou Xie was stunned.
"I heard that you suffered a complete defeat in the Fairy Aunt Temple?"
Dou Xie blushed: "Hu, Hu, nonsense!"
Zheng Shan: "Garbage."
Dou Xie was extremely angry, but remembering the other party's identity, he could only try to defend himself, saying how dangerous the situation was at that time, and that he had accidentally fallen victim to the other party's magic spell.
After listening patiently, Zheng Shan still smiled and shook his head, raised his index finger and shook it left and right: "Tsk, garbage."
Fighting deer bala bala.
"Rubbish."
"Rubbish."
"Rubbish."
Dou Xie's speech was already incoherent, and his defense became increasingly weak.
Finally, Zheng Xiu threw the final blow: "Putting aside the facts, don't you, as the most hip star, have no self-awareness at all?"
With a bang, Dou Xie's eyesight went black and he fell to the ground, foaming at the mouth.
"Tsk, 'literati'."
Zheng Xiu sneered.
"Look, words contain mysterious power. Do you feel angry? It's okay to be angry. Try integrating this emotion into your words and then throw it out."
…
Canceling [Wandering in the Mind] near [Inn Fengbei], Zheng Xiu patted Pingping. She opened her eyes and woke up as if she was sleepwalking.
The soaked Princess Dayuezhi of the ancient Persian kingdom had a strange dream. She loosened her restraints with a blushing face and her feet went weak.
"Is it useful?"
Zheng Xiu was curious about Pingping’s practice progress.
Pingping nodded and blinked: "Master, do you want to listen to some music? Some other music~"
"Well, another day."
Zheng Xiu nodded in agreement and walked out of the dungeon.
Zheng Erniang knew that the master had been working hard all night, so she ordered people to boil hot water and prepare aphrodisiac soup early in the morning.
Zheng Xiu silently endured all the criticism and rumors without explanation. At breakfast, Zheng Xiu was keenly aware of the worries in the eyes of Zheng Erniang and others. After asking a few more questions, Zheng Xiu remembered that today was the end of his amnesty and he needed to return to visit.
Days of hell.
"Three days, is it over?"
No wonder there was a faint feeling of sadness in the Zheng family's house today. Others didn't know why. They only knew that the master was going to jail again and couldn't be happy.
Zheng Xiu didn't think it was anything.
And it's worth mentioning.
He was in the Zheng family's dungeon, and although he couldn't see anything strange on the [Prisoner] panel. However, he tried to escape with a fugue, and found that the coverage area of [a fugue] was only slightly larger than that of the Zheng family's house. Without the help of an inn,
Under the premise, he cannot roam the whole city in his avatar.
The reasons for this result are clear at a glance.
Only a few people know about the Zheng family dungeon, and among the people who know about it, currently only four people, Bobo Pingping, Lili Zhizhi, have been implanted with the cognition of "prison". Only the four of them, from a cognitive level
Accept that this is a "dungeon".
If there are three, six or nine levels of cells, the Zheng Family Dungeon can only be regarded as the lowest level dungeon at present. It can barely trigger the [Prisoner] door, but in terms of the level of the cells, it cannot compare with the four major dungeons that are taboo in the hearts of ordinary people.
One of the heavenly prisons - comparable to Wangtian Prison.
Since discovering this matter, Zheng Xiu has been thinking of ways.
How to continuously improve the level of the cell without exposing the Zheng family's dungeon?
Zheng Xiu suddenly felt that he was very busy. He was busy going out to meet with Feng Nao. He also had to work on other aspects of his career. The new vest [Zheng Baimei] was about to be launched soon. Multi-line operations, without certain time management skills,
It is difficult to allocate his precious time reasonably.
"It's hard to handle."
But actually when this idea came up, Zheng Xiu thought of a very appropriate idea.
However, it is too difficult to realize this idea, and it may have to wander a little outside the laws of Daqian... No, it can only be said to be on the sidelines.
While silently reciting the Daqian Law, Zheng Xiu came to Qing Shisan for discussion.
After some confidential discussions.
To be continued...
