Because they had been on the road, they didn't know how long they had walked. The time was limited, and due to the climate and terrain in this area, of course they did not climb very high, but it was enough to have a panoramic view of the small town in the distance. Almost all of the city
All the roofs are flat, which is different from the common ones for three people.
At the same time, it is said to be conducive to water storage, because it rarely rains here. The layout of the buildings is very neat, and each block is square, but the distribution shape of the building complex is very special, like a rose flower blooming in the Gobi
On the beach. Maybe the distribution of the edges of the houses is also related to the topography and water source.
As the sun sets, some of the new houses on the edge reflect the sun's light, as if the flowers have been coated with a layer of gold. It is really beautiful, but Ye Lingquan knows that they have more important things at the moment. The mountain has been climbed for about five minutes.
Fourth, several people still found nothing. She reluctantly withdrew her gaze, but felt dizzy when her gaze swept downwards.
Even though the slope of this mountain was very gentle, there was no reference and no vegetation. It also seemed too high and empty. Ye Linghua suddenly felt weak in his hands and feet. When Xie Zhe saw this, he immediately said:
"Look up, don't look down!"
"My, my, my legs are weak..."
"You can't fall. I'll pick you up when you get down."
Han Chang unloaded her luggage on the high platform and clapped her hands vigorously to signal her to look up. Then she climbed up tremblingly, barely regaining her composure. The three rested for a while, watching the sun getting lower and lower. Finally, they rushed
We reached the top of the mountain before it got completely dark. Then we looked back at the small town we came from. Every household was lit up, like a galaxy on the ground.
"I didn't find anything along the way." Han Chang sat down, leaned on a stone, and said tiredly, "The flow of spiritual power is as thin as non-existence. There are no living things here."
The place where light and shadow meet...the sword is the key.
Xie Zhe also sat down to rest. He recited this meaningless sentence twice in his mind and shook his head. He probably still didn't understand. Gao Yuejun and Mu Yuejun both told them similar words, all in order for the three of them to find Eclipse.
The entrance of the light tower. This hundred
Really, the owner of the skeleton, why did he build his site in such a virtual place? On this flat-topped mountain, what is there related to the so-called light and shadow? The three people leaned on the big stone in a daze, looking at
The stars gradually become clearer in the sky.
But my head is empty.
The vegetation up here was a little denser, with a few trees and large turf. They rested for a while, picked up dead branches and made a fire to keep warm, and each of them covered himself with an old blanket.
"If we find nothing tomorrow, we have to go back."
Xie Zhe's tone was calm, and he didn't feel discouraged. But Han Sheng didn't feel comfortable listening to it. After all, he was the one who wanted the most. Meeting the Master of the Hundred Skeletons as a monster, he might be able to get some pointers.
At least I can help you find out the news. There are some differences from Death Shadow Pavilion. In Eclipse
Guangque, the reward is paid later. In other words, even if Han Sheng goes there empty-handed, he doesn’t have to worry about being kicked out. It’s different with Gao Yuejun. Most of the time, it’s her subordinates who meet people, and they
My mood was even more uncertain, it was difficult to be accommodating, and there was little room for negotiation.
"You go back to the city first, I'll stay here for a few more days." He was unwilling to do so.
Ye Linghua was worried, saying that they didn't bring anything to eat. Wouldn't he be starving by himself? Han Zang said no, because monsters are not as fragile as humans and they have to eat every meal. But Xie
Zhe clearly stated the most critical issue:
"Where's the sword?"
They stopped talking again. He would definitely be worried if he handed Fengyun Slash over to Han Zhang, and Han Zhang himself knew it. Ling Huan sighed:
"Sigh. Although I think Han Zhang will definitely not take the sword and run away, but I can't be generous to others. A Zhe's own opinions and decisions are the most important. What's more, if he loses his sword for some unexpected reason,
It’s hard to take responsibility.”
On this point, Ling Huan was unexpectedly candid and accurately stated the key point. Xie Zhe said:
"Don't say anything brave. Search more tomorrow and take a rest. If there are no more clues, get up early the day after tomorrow."
"I thought you were going to pack up and run away."
"I'm not that kind of person."
Han Chang stretched and took a deep breath, and then continued: "We spent too much time in the city in the morning. If we set off early, we could at least rest at the camel shed and have enough supplies, so we wouldn't be in trouble now.
Take Miss Ye to suffer."
"I'm used to it, why are you talking about this now?" Ling Huan smiled lightly.
"In the end, I didn't ask anything about it. They seemed to have heard about it, but never seen it. Very few people asked them, and those who asked never showed up again. I guess they either found it or gave up.
.”
Han Chang picked up his chin: "Well... at least I am sure that if we find it, it will prove that there are other exits from the Eclipse Palace. The Wuchang people have also said that there is indeed more than one way, and this one is already the most convenient for us.
Besides, since the people who seek help from him are all monsters, they probably have very little contact with humans. I wonder how many of the people who ask about them are monsters."
"...Go to bed early." Xie Zhe straightened the blanket and said, "Get up early tomorrow."
The nights on Pingding Mountain are indeed very cold, dry and cold, slightly better than the wet and cold conditions over Qinglize. But Ling Huan has almost forgotten how hot it is here during the day, and it doesn’t feel like winter at all. I wonder if it’s during the Chinese New Year
Can the three of them find the Eclipse Palace before now? What kind of person is the owner of that remote and secluded place?
After thinking about it, she slowly fell asleep.
Ling Huan woke up from the cold the next day, and it was probably no more than midnight when he opened his eyes. There was light in the east, and there was limited firewood. The bonfire had been out for a long time, and it was already cold to the touch. It was the coldest time of the day, because
Yesterday’s sun remains on the ground
The heat had dissipated, but the sun had not yet risen today. Shivering, she wrapped herself in a thin blanket, stood up and lingered in place for a while. The other two friends seemed not to wake up yet, and she did not disturb them.
He wrapped his blanket around his head and walked farther away.
She still doesn’t know what the other side of the mountain looks like. Can she go down directly from there? But there’s no point in going down there. According to the residents of the small town, if you go further to Pingding Mountain, you’ll be in a real desert.
, not even the gravel was visible. After walking for a while, she felt a little warmer, so she hung the blanket on her arm. After walking for a while, she no longer saw only the barren ground, but a yellow area.
I'm afraid it's the desert.
When Ling Huan stopped, she was startled, and she woke up completely. There was a cliff in front of her. She was not mentally prepared at all. When she poked her head out, she found that it was almost a cross-section. The cross-section was not smooth and had many bumps.
, every gust of wind could take away some sand and dust from above. She took several steps back, fearing that she would slip down the mountain accidentally.
"Why are you here?" It was Han Chang's voice, "You have come so far."
"Wow... look -" Ye Lingquan stretched out his hand and pointed forward, "There are sand dunes everywhere..."
This is indeed a scene worthy of emotion. The sand going down from Pingding Mountain is still a bit rough, with a lot of gravel hidden in it, but the further you go, the finer the sand becomes, like dust, forming undulating waves of different heights at the front.
The sand dunes are like the solidified sea surface, with strange ripples of light and shadow, which are very spectacular.
"Could the Eclipse Palace... be in a place like this?" Xie Zhe also followed.
"You will know if you are there or not after seeing it."
As soon as he finished speaking, Han Zhang jumped down. Ye Lingquan screamed in fright. Xie Zhe also stepped forward and looked down from the cliff. Han Zhang was seen stepping on the cliff, and his body was as light as a swallow.
The person is almost parallel to the ground. He looks like
The one who "ran down" was actually exerting resistance on himself, reducing the impact caused by the ground. Soon, in their eyes, Hanshang turned into a point, and the smoke and dust he stepped on filled the air, making the two of them
The vision becomes blurred.
Han Chang gradually lowered his body while running down, bent down, and touched the cliff with his hands. A special red light spread out from his whole body. If someone looked from a distance, he would definitely see a
The outline of a huge, red fox even has nine tails. But looking down from the flat-top mountain, you can only see a burst of red mist in the dust.
Did he see something or feel something? Neither of them knew clearly. I'm afraid they would only know if they caught up and asked.
"It's too messy." Xie Zhe frowned.
"This, this him, will he be okay?"
Ling Hu felt that her voice was trembling a little. What was she worried about? She couldn't tell clearly, but she had seen Han Shan's strength before. It was just that they had been together for too long, and Ling Hu always easily put aside the fact that he was a monster.
In the back of her head, she treated him like an ordinary human male. So as soon as she said the question, she had the answer in her mind. Xie Zhe, on the other hand, was always calm.
"What can he do? As long as he dares to do it, he is completely sure of it."
"Then...how are we going to get down?"
"I can go down directly, but I'm afraid it won't be easy for you." Xie Zhe looked around, "Wait a minute, look over there -"
Xie Zhe pointed to the right, where there was a ladder. They walked up to it and Xie Zhe checked it.
"The rope is still strong, but it has been used for a few years, so be careful."
"It doesn't seem to be straight to the end..."
The feeling of weak legs appeared again, even though Ling Huan just observed along the cliff for a while. Probably to prevent the rope from breaking due to aging, the ladder has many parts, which are intermittently forming a road. The distance between each two soft ladders is relatively small.
It's big and difficult to stay in.
"I'll get off first and help you keep an eye on it."
