Slightly thin, with long hair shawl, a red ribbon tied around her waist, and a carved sword in her hand, she looks like a beauty who stepped out of ancient times.
The vast world of mortals is spotless.
…
Why does my sister appear here?
No, that's not right...an illusion! It's an illusion!
Jiang Che immediately drew out the black knife and pointed it at Jiang Wan in front of him.
At the same time, Zhuge Ye and Su Xiaojin also reacted and went to explore each other's truth.
But the strange thing is...
They were unable to detect the mysterious aura, nor sense the fluctuations in the ruins.
It's as if the "Jiang Wan" before was really a human being, an ordinary person who didn't even have any cunning powers.
At this time, Jiang Wan smiled awkwardly and said, "Xiao Che, why did you come to Tianma Pass?"
"Stop pretending." Jiang Che scolded.
Jiang Wan: "I know this matter is very... please listen to my explanation. I didn't hide it from you on purpose."
"I……"
"Cut the nonsense!"
Jiang Che took action directly!
The narrow steps can only accommodate one person. Logically speaking, this kind of space can only be used for 1v1 combat. After all, if you lose your footing, you will fall into the abyss.
But for Jiang Che and his team of three, this is not a problem.
The moment Jiang Che drew his sword, Zhuge Ye fanned his feather fan and covered Jiang Che's sword with a layer of white flames, maximizing the special effect.
Su Xiaojin, who was originally standing at the end, jumped up, leaving multiple shadows in the air with the horizontal knife in her hand, and slashed towards "Jiang Wan"!
"Xiao Che!"
Jiang Wan drew out her long sword and tried to resist Jiang Che's attack.
But I never thought that the moment the swords clashed, the sword would break with a sound.
Immediately afterwards, Su Xiaojin slashed down from the air!
"laugh!"
The azure blade sank directly into Jiang Wan's forehead, while Jiang Che took advantage of the opponent's moment of confusion and slashed directly towards the neck.
"laugh!"
The black liquid splashed in a blowout.
At the same time, Su Xiaojin's feet landed lightly on Jiang Che's shoulders, without giving Jiang Che a chance to raise his head, and once again used his strength to land firmly in front.
Jiang Che: "..."
Zhuge Ye: "You must be very disappointed..."
Looking at "Jiang Wan" who was gradually turning into ashes in front of him, Jiang Che said: "It seems that the secrets here have a way to shield one's own aura."
Zhuge Ye: "Well, I know people, their faces, but not their hearts. I can't tell the difference between a human and a ghost."
At this time, Su Xiaojin suddenly said: "What if I kill the wrong person?"
Zhuge Ye: "How is it possible? Sister Wan'er is an ordinary person. It is unreasonable to appear here. It would not be like this if someone else deceives this secret."
Jiang Che: "What Xiaojin means is, what should we do if we really meet someone we can't tell apart."
Zhuge Ye: "What do you mean?"
Jiang Che: "What if the person standing in front of us just now is someone we don't know, but he calls himself the gatekeeper of Tiancha Gate? Or, what if we are separated because of something?"
Zhuge Ye: "Ah this..."
At this time, Xiaoman's voice sounded in Jiang Che's mind: "Keep going down, there is something down there... It's very vague, but it gives me a very familiar feeling..."
"Keep going down." Jiang Che said.
Zhuge Ye silently grabbed Jiang Che's clothes: "Brother Che, I'm afraid..."
Jiang Che: "Are you sick? Master Zhuge."
Zhuge Ye: "Huh? That's right! I am Zhuge Zhenren! Get out of the way, let me go in front!"
Following Zhuge Ye, Jiang Che suddenly thought of something, so he asked: "Can you use heavenly magic to calculate this mission?"
"That's definitely not possible." Zhuge Ye turned back and glanced at Jiang Che, as if he was looking at a curse.
Jiang Che: "Why?"
Zhuge Ye explained: "Heavenly magic is not omnipotent. Although we can see the future development of some things, we also need opportunities."
"Opportunity?"
"Yes, do you understand a flash of inspiration? You have to feel it first, then wait for the feeling to become stronger and stronger, and finally wait for an opportunity, a moment, and it will come out uncontrollably."
The corner of Jiang Che's mouth twitched and he said: "Is this the magic of heaven? Can this be considered the most important thing in the Zhuge family?"
Zhuge Ye: "Well...why doesn't it count?"
Jiang Che: "Why don't you change your name to Zhuge Laoliu from now on?"
Zhuge Ye: "Is Lao Ba OK?"
"OK."
In this abyss of depression, the two began to play tricks again.
But unfortunately, the slightly more relaxed atmosphere was soon broken.
The corpse of a gatekeeper.
Under the ice on the rock wall, one could clearly see the body of a gatekeeper. The armor he wore was exactly the same as the gatekeepers he had just seen on the city wall.
It's just that he who was frozen in ice, although he is complete, can no longer be described as complete.
"So is this really a gatekeeper, or is it a secret..." Zhuge Ye frowned, his tone full of uncertainty.
Jiang Che: "..."
Zhuge Ye looked at Jiang Che and asked, "If he is the gatekeeper, should we take his body back?"
For ordinary people, this issue is nothing to consider, and they will definitely choose to ignore it.
Because it is completely unnecessary to take risks for a corpse when you are not sure whether there is any danger.
But for the soldiers of the conspiracy and the gatekeepers.
Fallen leaves return to their roots, souls return to their hometown... many times it becomes a luxury wish.
Therefore, there is an unwritten rule in Conspiracy.
That is, when you see the corpses of your colleagues, bring them back as much as possible.
Because you never know if you can go back.
Can your family see you again?
Even a handful of ashes.
…
Jiang Che: "Go down and check the situation first, then dig out the body later. If there is no problem, take it back."
Zhuge Ye: "Okay."
I don’t know how much time passed.
The three of them walked down the last step and came to an open space filled with cold air.
Although Zhuge Ye can provide light, in this cold air, it can only provide a field of vision of less than ten meters.
Under such circumstances, and without being able to perceive the existence of mystery in advance, the risk factor has undoubtedly increased by several levels.
There were strange sounds lingering in my ears, as if there were many secrets whispering, saying things that humans couldn't understand.
The three of them groped like headless flies in the cold air.
Sudden!
"Crash!"
There was a strange sound coming from the front, like the sound of chains clashing.
At the same time, Jiang Che saw a dark chain that was submerged in the cold air.
