Zhang Yu held the Cicada Sword in his hand, his sleeves and robes fluttering, and he walked slowly forward in front of everyone's attention.
Those countless ghosts are still there at this moment, constantly hitting the light and making roaring sounds.
But this effort seems to be in vain. It is obviously just a thin line, and they cannot penetrate through the light curtain.
This scene full of strong contrast shocked everyone's hearts.
At this time, Elder Ying patted the shoulder of the stunned soldier in front and said, "That's Zhang Xuanzheng of Xuanfu. With him here, we should be fine. Let me go over and talk to him."
The soldier did not move and glanced at Captain Li, who nodded to him. He then opened a gap and quickly blocked it after Ying Lao left. The young man and Shuhua inside the circle
He looked at the back with some concern.
Elder Ying stepped forward, raised his hand to Zhang Yuyi, and said: "Zhang Xunzheng, you are polite. I am Yingke from Yantai Academy. I am a good friend of Elder Lu. I have heard Elder Lu mention Xuanzheng many times."
Zhang Yu nodded and said: "It turns out to be Yingxue Ling. I also heard Mr. Lu mention your respect and say that you are one of the few scholars who have made achievements in the field of mysticism."
Occultology is a specialty that specializes in the study of ancient strange gods. It was first established by the military to deal with strange gods. Scholars of this specialty and antiquities are actually two sides of the same coin. The difference is that these scholars are more inclined to
The part that studies the miraculous and has more contacts with the Ministry of Secrets.
Mr. Ying quickly said he didn't dare, and said: "I have been paying attention to this ruins for a long time, and I am really ashamed. This time I also heard Mr. Lu say that Zhang Xuan was coming here, so I also thought about following along to find something.
, but I was afraid that Xuanzheng would refuse, so I followed him all the way, and asked Henry Zhang not to blame him."
Zhang Yu said calmly: "This is just a trivial matter, but the things in this ruins are somewhat obstructive, especially the 'Wishing Box', which is not something ordinary people can touch, and I will not allow you to take this thing away."
Take it to the middle of the continent, so you can leave."
Mr. Ying was startled for a moment, then nodded and said, "Let's listen to Xuan Zheng."
If it had been anyone else, he might have thought that the other person wanted to monopolize the things here, but he knew that this person was not only Xuanzheng of Xuanfu, but also a Xiashi, who could absolutely be trusted in terms of moral character.
If you say you can't take it away, there must be a reason.
He said sincerely: "No matter what, it was Zhang Xuanzheng who saved me this time. When you go back, will you be lucky enough to invite Zhang Xuanzheng to have a cup of tea to express your gratitude?"
Zhang Yu nodded slightly and said: "If you are not in a hurry, you can wait for me outside and return together."
Elder Ying once again cupped his hands and said sincerely, "Thank you, Xuanzheng." He glanced at the wishing box on the hillside with some regret, and said hello, "Everyone, let's go."
Captain Li just saw Zhang Yu's cool and calm look from behind. He didn't seem to pay attention to the non-human and non-ghost things outside at all. He admired him very much in his heart. When he passed by Zhang Yu, he thought
I thought about it and asked: "Zhang Xuanzheng, can you ask me, what are these things outside?"
Zhang Yu glanced at the things that were shouting outside the light and said: "These things are the remnants of Helier."
Yinglao and Shuhua who were walking in front couldn't help but pause when they heard this sentence. They looked at each other and seemed to have thought of something. But they didn't stop to ask more questions.
Captain Li was a little surprised, but he had no intention of getting to the bottom of it. He solemnly clasped his fists at Zhang Yu, and quickly walked out with all his soldiers to protect him.
Halfway through, a soldier suddenly said: "Leader, I believe what you say."
Captain Li said casually: "What are you talking about?"
The soldier whispered: "Even if we multiply ten times, we can't stop it."
Captain Li exclaimed, glanced at him, and said, "Boy, have you gained some experience now? I'm telling you, if you come down to conquer Shuangzhou, you will have to deal with monks. You all should be careful, don't do anything.
Look up at the sky one by one, thinking that you are great, this world is far bigger and broader than what you see."
All the soldiers responded in unison while running. After all, even a thousand words or ten thousand words would not be as profound as what they saw directly. The scene just now really shocked them.
After Zhang Yu watched this group of people leave, he turned around and saw the Xuanhun cicada in the sky waving its wings lightly, splashing down with endless brilliant starlight.
After a while, as the light faded, those gray-blue gods and ghosts were also swept away, and no one was left.
The place was empty, as if nothing had happened just now.
He turned around and floated towards the "wishing box". After a while, he stopped in front of this thing.
He told Mr. Ying that this thing was not something that ordinary people could touch. This was not a lie. There was a strange power surging on this thing. People who have not reached a certain level of power may not be affected by it if they come into contact with it.
Control this thing as your belief.
And if he brought this thing back intact, he suspected that it wouldn't be long before the intelligent beings nearby would become as fanatical about things as the original Helier people.
But for people at his level, the impact is very slight.
He stretched out his hand and flicked it, and a symbol flashed on the surface of the box. Then, like ice crystals melting, a depression was revealed at the level of his eyes, with a parchment inside.
As soon as he paid attention, this thing floated out and slowly unfolded in front of him. It could be seen that it was covered with dense Hellier characters.
The Helian script was included in the classics sent by Mr. Lu. It was relatively complete because of the remnants. He had learned it before he came here. Although there were some variations in the text, it was not difficult for him to recognize it.
.
This parchment was left behind by the last person to leave here. What is recorded on it is not knowledge, but a secret.
As mentioned above, after obtaining the knowledge of the previous era, the Helians continued to build two unfinished artifacts.
The "jar of eternal life" was the first one to be built, so all residents of Helier who had made certain contributions in Helier and were nearing the end of their lifespan were allowed to enter the jar of eternal life, and wait for Hellier inside.
The day the door opens.
The "Wishing Box" was finally built by a group of craftsmen before the arrival of the turbid tide.
But at this time, a group of Hellier's upper echelons discovered that if they made a wish on the box, only a few people could enter the "Gate of Hellier" and gain the power to be "restrained", while most people would probably be left behind.
Outside the door, so this is still an incomplete work.
Maybe giving them a longer time can solve this problem, but the signs of the impending turbid tide have appeared, and they can't wait any longer, so these upper class bypassed most of the sleeping Helier people and took the risk to make a wish on the box.
The wish can be said to have been successful. All the sleeping Helier people gained strength, but it also failed. Most of them became another kind of ghost between life and death, and lost all that belonging to humans.
On the one hand, their consciousness is only jealousy of living beings and desire for flesh and blood.
But that small group of upper-level people successfully obtained restrained power and entered the "Gate of Helle".
It's just that one of them did not enter there after gaining power. Instead, he recorded the incident with guilt and left the parchment here, saying that he would try to build another "box heart" and then go there again.
Come back here and save everyone.
Originally, the matter ended there, but at the very end of the parchment, Zhang Yu saw a pattern there.
It is not difficult to tell that it is a frost flower.
He couldn't help but narrow his eyes slightly, but he thought of a lot in an instant.
After thinking for a moment, he put the sheepskin scroll into the purple star bag, and then looked at the wishing box in front of him.
In fact, the complete wishing box is divided into two parts: the "box body" and the "box core". The box core is a consumable object and will disappear after each wish is made.
The box body is an external carrier, but it can play a role in changing and uniting people's beliefs. Although it is relatively unimportant, it is also an ancient artifact from the previous era, and it is still of some use to him.
So he stretched out his hand and pressed it, feeling the billowing heat entering his body.
After a long time, when he could no longer feel any heat from above, he took back his hand, turned around and left.
Shortly after he got out, the box collapsed with a loud bang and turned into a cloud of dust on the ground.
After Zhang Yu walked out from here, he quickly returned to the place where the flying boat stayed. Qingmo was waiting here, saluted him and said: "Sir."
Zhang Yu took a look at the flying boat and found that there were pits and depressions in some places on the surface of the bulkhead, and said, "Did something get here just now?"
Qing Mo said: "Yes, when Mr. Cai ordered me to retreat here, those things also followed. I followed Mr.'s orders and hid in the flying boat and ignored it. It failed to break the flying boat, so I left again.
Already."
Zhang Yu nodded and said: "Go back." He walked into the hatch, and then Qingmo walked in. After a while, the flying boat slowly rose up and walked back along the way it came in.
Ying Lao and others were currently waiting in a flying boat over the oasis. When they saw his flying boat coming out of the pit, and the boat's body flashed twice, they immediately recognized this as a sign for them to follow.
So he hurriedly followed in his flying boat.
Zhang Yuze was sitting in the main cabin thinking about the frost flower.
The symbol of Frost Island is also a frost flower. Is there any connection between the two? Is this just a coincidence?
Judging from Hellier's records, the power of the wishing box completely depends on the size of the box's core. The larger the box's core, the greater the wishing power feedback it can obtain.
After thinking about it deeply, he felt that this matter must be guarded against.
Five days later, Feizhou returned to Fangtai station safely and landed on the mooring platform. But at this moment, Feizhou suddenly shook violently and fell headfirst.
The disciples below suddenly exclaimed.
Zhang Yu sat there motionless, and a ray of light emitted from his body immediately enveloped the entire flying boat, and then slowly landed.
He felt it and found that the life response of the airship had disappeared. Obviously, the previous impact was not intact, but it finally died here. He sat in silence for a while and then said: "Next time you use the airship, remember to
