Zhang Yu came out of the affairs hall and first went to the side hall to explain the matter to Xin Yao. Then he asked Yan Yuming to check his homework. After a few words of concern, he walked out of the Xuan Mansion.
It was now dark night, but there were many stars on the top, which were extremely bright. However, compared with the star map of the previous life, this sky was extremely unfamiliar. It was not even clear whether the stars shining on it were stars.
In natural history and astronomy, this has not yet been determined.
But sooner or later he will figure it out one day.
He rolled up his sleeves and strode forward.
In this semi-dark night, the statues of gods and monsters in the square are like living creatures crouching there, ready to prey. But they seem to be afraid of something. They hide in the shadows and dare not show themselves. They can only watch them walking along the avenue.
Go all the way away.
He seemed to be walking leisurely, but his speed was actually very fast. It didn't take long before he returned to the residence of the academy. At this time, the two hanging lamps in front of the door were hung high, illuminating the residence and surrounding areas.
The courtyard walls and flowers glowed a warm yellow.
He pushed the door open and entered, placing the Xia Jian in his hand on a shelf. Miao Danjun shouted and jumped down from the high basket. He teased Miaodan Jun for a while, fed him some pills himself, and then rubbed it.
Brain, let it play on its own.
After returning to the study, he called Li Qinghe to give a few brief instructions, and bluntly said that because of the special circumstances, he didn't know how long it would take him to come back this time. He asked him to pay more attention to himself. If he had any difficulties, he could go to Fan Lan or
Liu Guang.
In addition, the depths of Anshan are extremely dangerous, and even he himself may not be able to guarantee safety, so it is impossible to bring Miao Danjun with him. He can only stay at home for the time being. However, he has prepared a large amount of pill powder in advance for Li Qinghe to
Just feed at a fixed time every day.
After explaining, he stretched out his hand to summon Xia Jian, returned to the quiet room, took a few pills, sat down, and fell into tranquility.
On the second day, he opened his eyes and woke up from sitting still.
He reached out and grabbed Xia Jian, then pulled out the blade, took a wiping cloth, and slowly wiped it.
In the dark and quiet room, the blade of the sword gradually became transparent and bright as it was being wiped, like a dazzling light. After a long time, the brilliance flickered and disappeared, and then the sound of sheathing was heard.
He stood up, raised his sword and walked out of the quiet room. After washing himself, he made a cup of tea and sat down on the rooftop.
The sky was gray-blue but not bright yet, the golden sun was about to spit out, and the entire Ruiguang City seemed extremely quiet.
He watched silently, sitting still without moving. The tea cup on the table was steaming. Miao Danjun didn't know what was coming, so he squatted aside obediently.
When the red sun rose in the sky and pierced the light into the sky, he looked up and picked up the tea cup. The tea that was getting cold suddenly became hot again. He took a calm sip and put it down before he stood up.
.
He took the cloak on the shelf and put it on, put on the pair of vermilion gloves, and put the pills he had refined a few days ago into the middle of his pocket. He then walked down the stairs with Xia Jian in hand and walked out.
door.
Mr. Miaodan jumped a few times and came to the edge of the rooftop, watching him gradually go away.
Zhang Yu walked out of the academy, took a carriage out of the city gate from the south city, and stopped at the mound where the God of Balance was summoned, and then he let the carriage go back on its own.
After the carriage was far away, he walked onto the mound, stretched out his hands, put on his hat, and looked up at the sky. His whole body suddenly turned into a blue light, which shot into the sky like lightning and fled eastward.
After flying for a while, he looked at the infinite sky and earth, the boundless mountains and sea below him, and felt that something was missing at this moment. After thinking about it for a while, he knew what it was.
Now if I could play some magnificent music, it would undoubtedly lighten my mood and complement this scene.
He couldn't help but remember that there was a seal in the Xuan Palace, called the "Seal of Phantom Sound", which could vibrate the spirit and create various sounds, which could be heard by oneself or by others.
If it were up to him, many of the magnificent songs I heard in my previous life would undoubtedly come back to my ears.
He suddenly thought that after returning this time, he could fill in the seal.
Since it is difficult to escape from the hinterland of Anshan and it is difficult to discern the exact direction, it is best to find an easy-to-travel route to enter, and the most suitable entrance is the Honghe Pass.
It was from there that his teacher led him and a group of disciples into the depths of Anshan.
Therefore, this time he planned to go north along the Anshan Mountains that connects the north and south of the mainland. After seeing the Honghe Pass, he would then turn inland via the route he had traveled before.
After one day in the sky, the majestic mountains appeared in front of him. His mind flashed, and he immediately climbed up. After breaking through the clouds and mist, he looked down.
The snow-white ridges present winding curves, with gray mottled rocks exposed in some places, and the vast expanse of land stretches far away. It seems to be an eternal scene that has remained unchanged since ancient times.
For a moment, he focused on the front again, and his speed increased slightly.
Not long after, as the sun set in the west, the sky gradually turned into night. The light of the stars and the moon fell on the mountain, and a silver line extended far away, seeming to continue to point him to the way forward.
He was wandering alone in the sky, listening to the empty echo of the resonance between the mountain and the heaven and earth, and kept flying forward.
One night passed, and the morning sun rose again from the east, spreading its light over the earth.
At this time, he saw a huge crack in the shape of a horseshoe in front of him from a distance, and a rushing water line rushed out from the dense forest and headed east.
Honghe Pass.
His eyes were focused there, the light on his body expanded, and his speed suddenly increased!
A flying eagle noticed something, suddenly flapped its wings and moved away, and then a green rainbow light flashed across the sky, heading into the distance, leaving only a long-lasting eagle cry in the sky.
As he got closer to the pass, he could already see the stone fortresses built there by the Protectorate. Compared with the chiseling of nature, the neat artificial walls and the regular arrangement of the buildings presented another kind of beauty.
Because there was the army of the Protectorate there, as well as the three major military commanders of the Shenwei Army gathered there, it was not ruled out that there were supernatural gods in the dense forest, so he did not continue to move forward in a straight line, but turned to the west and circled
After walking around for a while, we came to the north of Honghe Pass.
Further north here, it still belongs to the territory of the Duhufu. There are dozens of garrison towns, but the population of each town is not large, with less than 20,000 people scattered among the vast mountains and hills.
As for farther away, there is another sea more than a thousand miles away, which is the northernmost point of the territory of the Protectorate in name.
At this time, he turned slightly and headed east again, looking for the place in his memory along the direction parallel to the pass. Not long after, he saw a black mountain covered with ice and snow.
He recalled that he had been here before when he came here. After circling around, he swooped down the mountain to the southeast. The trees below gradually became denser, but the fog above seemed to
If you add too much, it becomes extremely thick.
A brilliant light bloomed in his eyes, distinguishing the terrain and mountains below and beyond.
But even so, as he continued to go deeper, the changes in the scenery and the influence of some chaotic forces, his sense of direction was gradually lost.
Fortunately, at this time, he had found the place he was looking for, which was a bare mountain rock. The protruding rock mass on it was facing a certain direction like an eagle's beak looking back, which was very conspicuous.
He remembered that there was a "path" on the mountain wall, and it was from there that his teacher took him into the hinterland of Anshan. It was also the first test of his mental concentration.
After flying close, he quickly found the "path", which was actually a rocky part protruding from the mountain wall, forming an intermittently "road" that seemed to lead to it.
What was a dangerous place back then is nothing to him now.
At this time, he noticed that there were several wooden wedges inserted into the gaps in the rocks. These things were not there when he passed by. This was probably done by the local indigenous people later, perhaps some crazy believers who went up the mountain to worship or went up the mountain.
Hunters picking herbs.
The sleeves of his robe were fluttering, and he stayed in the air for a while, then walked along this path, slowly entering the dense forest, and finally landed on the thick fallen leaves.
The creatures here seemed to be alarmed. Several small rainforest lizards quickly crawled away from the broken tree trunk. And from his senses, at least hundreds of creatures were frantically escaping into the distance at this moment.
This was out of instinctive fear, because the light in his body seemed to be a powerful spiritual creature that suddenly broke into this place.
Because the abnormality of the creatures would probably alarm the natives here and cause unnecessary trouble. It should be known that this place is not very far from the pass, so he calmed down a little and isolated a lot of information about himself.
Of course, this is not completely safe. Because some spiritual creatures are very familiar with the environment in which they live, the sudden extra blank space will attract attention.
However, this situation is rare. The thing he needs to focus on guarding against is actually the Ability God. In a place where an altar to the Ability God is established, as long as someone who is not a believer passes by, he will be detected immediately. This needs to be dealt with carefully.
He now needs to reach a certain place mentioned in the secret scroll, and then get involved in the spiritual emotions of the owner of the secret scroll at that time, so that he can observe a more accurate path, but there is still a long way to go from there.
He observed his surroundings, recalled for a moment, then mentioned Xia Jian and walked towards a certain place in the dense forest. He remembered that there should be an ancient ruins not far ahead. If he found it, he could use the ancient ruins to find it.
The remaining roads left behind continue to travel downwards.
