The location of the Sword Tomb is actually the most dangerous in the entire Jingyun Shu Mountain, and it is also a real treasure place full of possibilities. It is said that even the strongest men at the general level may not be able to find the location of the Sword Tomb. Only the top ones can find it. A king-level powerhouse can easily find the location of the sword tomb.
"We have arrived outside Shushan City of Jianzhong." Ye Qian told Li Wei and others the news.
"We've finally arrived." Li Wei and the others have also seen the description of Jianzhong, and naturally yearn for it. This is the final destination of their trip to Jingyun Shushan.
"One thing to note is that in the Shushan City of Sword Tomb, my mental power detection will not work." Ye Qian added.
Li Wei and others were a little surprised by this, but it was right to think about it. Even strong generals may not be able to find the mysterious place where the sword tomb is located. It would be strange if it was not special.
Not long after, Ye Qian and his party arrived outside Shushan City of Jianzhong. This ancient city gave people a suffocating majesty. The huge stone lion statues on both sides of the city gate were even more powerful and lifelike, as if two stone lions were about to fly from the ground. The way he jumped out.
After entering the ancient city, Ye Qian and his party saw a wide street with towering pavilions and vivid ancient Chinese characters. It was obvious that people once lived in this ancient city, and judging from the withered signs of the shops on both sides, it was clear that a group of people lived here. A true warrior.
Walking on the street, Ye Qian could easily imagine the bustling life of a large number of ancient warriors in this ancient city.
"I really don't know how our line of ancient warriors declined." Li Wei felt inexplicably sad, walking on the street, but it felt like a needle pricking his heart.
"Feiyue Sacrifice, what exactly is Feiyue Sacrifice?" Liu Tianchen also muttered, with a bit of indescribable sadness on his face.
As an ancient Chinese warrior, when I see this Sword Tomb in Shushan City, I am afraid I will feel such inexplicable sadness in it, lamenting the decline of the ancient warriors.
"As long as we are strong enough, one day we will understand the truth." Ye Qian murmured.
Walking through the streets, looking at the traces left by the lives of the ancient warriors in the past, it was like vivid pictures, which strengthened the martial arts determination of Ye Qian and the ancient warriors.
"Look."
"Sword, such a big sword."
When Ye Qian and his group of five people came to a square in the city, they saw a huge sword like a sky pillar standing in the distance, which was touching.
"Chinese legend says that Shushan is the Sword Sect. It seems that it is not groundless." Ye Qian said with emotion.
"There is a ladder to the sky over there." Li Wei saw that on one side of the giant sword, there was a broad avenue that wound up and straight into the sky. On one side of the avenue, there was a huge stone standing upright.
Ye Qian and others took a closer look and found the carvings on the boulder: The road to Shu is as difficult as climbing to the blue sky, the way of martial arts is as mysterious as the book of heaven, the way of the sword is as strong as black iron, and the way of humanity is as humble as ants.
These handwritings are strong, powerful and majestic. Upon closer inspection, it seems that there are countless sword shadows flying out, which captures the heart and soul.
"What does this mean?" Li Wei looked at these four sentences and frowned slightly: "Humanity is inferior to ants. Is the person who wrote these words too rampant?"
"I don't think so. Judging from the handwriting, the person who wrote these four sentences must be a martial arts master and extremely good at swordsmanship. What such a person says cannot be just rampant and unreasonable." Liu Tianchen said disapprovingly.
While Li Wei and Liu Tianchen were arguing, Krul who was listening to the side said: "I think what this senior said is extremely reasonable. For our werewolf clan, except for ourselves, all other lives are despicable and humble. Yes, this is the true destiny of nature and natural selection."
"Heaven and earth are unkind and treat all things as stupid dogs." Ye Qian thought of a sentence in the Tao Te Ching and said, "This may be what the senior wanted to say."
"Good advice from the Wolf King." Li Wei chuckled, and it was hard to refute Ye Qian's use of this sentence from the Tao Te Ching to understand these four sentences.
Liu Tianchen and others also looked at Ye Qian with smiles on their faces, feeling that it was the best thing for Ye Qian to end everyone's debate on these sentences with this sentence.
"Everyone should read the annotations of these small words below." The four men only saw these four sentences with the words "Sword Carving, Knife Cutting", but they did not pay attention to the lines of boys' annotations under the boulder, which were from girls' homes. Kaname was very attentive, and when the four of them were arguing about the meaning of four sentences, he discovered the small print below.
After Ye Qian and the other two read the small print annotations, they all showed a bit of embarrassment on their faces. The various meanings they had guessed before were simply due to their overthinking. The small print below explained it clearly.
The first sentence says that the road to Shu is difficult, the second sentence says that martial arts originates from the Book of Heaven, the third sentence says that the masculinity of swordsmanship is no more than black iron, and requires a combination of hardness and softness. As for the fourth point that everyone is arguing about As the saying goes, people must be kind-hearted, otherwise they will be as humble as ants.
Obviously, the four people argued for a while, but no one said what the Chinese text intended to teach.
"They say the road to Shu is difficult. I want to see how difficult it is." Li Wei awkwardly changed the subject and was the first to climb up the winding path.
Ye Qian and others looked at each other, said nothing more, and followed Li Wei onto the Shu Road. Only Xiao Xiao looked at the embarrassing behavior of the four men and snickered.
Obviously, if Ye Qian and others want to find the location of the Sword Tomb, they need to pass through this long Shu Road. The Shu Road in front of them is winding and towering. God knows when they will reach the end.
However, Ye Qian soon discovered that the five of him were walking farther and farther away from each other, and they could no longer even see each other's figures.
Obviously everyone's steps are the same and should be done in sync, but Ye Qian soon discovered that it was not the same thing at all. The same step was taken, but on the Shu Road in Shu Mountain, it was not the same at all. It's the same thing. Some people can walk more than ten feet in one step, while others only have two or three feet under their feet.
As a result, Ye Qian and his party of five soon became farther and farther apart, walking their own way on the Shu Road. They didn't know where they were, and they were surrounded by clouds and mist, like a paradise in a fairyland.
"This Shu Road is so mysterious." Ye Qian was surprised. He walked without knowing how far he had gone, but there were clouds and mist everywhere, and there was no reference at all.
Not long after, Ye Qian's feet seemed to have suddenly stepped on the ground, and his whole vision suddenly changed, and he appeared in an independent space. An old man with a gray beard looked at Ye Qian kindly.
"Little brother, we are destined to meet each other. Don't panic. Why don't you sit down and play a game of chess with me." The white-bearded old man looked at Ye Qian with a smile, without showing any hostility.
But Ye Qian clearly felt that this place should be an illusion. Although he knew that this was an illusion, Ye Qian tried several times to break away from the illusion, but it had no effect at all. Instead, it made the old man with a white beard laugh repeatedly.
"Little brother, don't waste your efforts. I think you are only a sixth-grade ancient warrior. It is impossible to break this illusion." The white-bearded old man repeatedly persuaded Ye Qian.
Ye Qian frowned slightly, stared at the white-bearded old man, and said: "Senior, you and I have no grievances, why do you imprison me in this illusion?"
"Imprisonment." The old man chuckled and said, "Little brother, you are serious. As you said, you and I have no grievances, so why should I imprison you."
"In that case, why not get rid of the illusion." Ye Qian still looked at the white-bearded old man with some vigilance, obviously not so easy to believe his words.
"Little brother, human nature is kind. You are too wary. As long as you play this game of chess with me and answer a few questions, you will be able to leave here smoothly. If you have my heart for me, I will still have my treasure. For example, I can also send you to the Sword Tomb that you want to visit most." The old man with the white beard said tepidly, and his men had already started to set up a chess game.
Ye Qian was dubious, so he had no choice but to comply with the old man's words, sat down opposite him, and started to play the chess game.
"Little brother, what's your name?" the old man with the white beard asked absently.
"Ye Qian, humble Qian." Ye Qian responded, not understanding what medicine the old man was selling in his gourd.
"What a good name." The old man with a white beard nodded in appreciation and said, "People need to be humble and humble. It's just a pity."
The white-bearded old man hesitated to speak. Ye Qian was stunned and asked, "What's the pity?"
"It's a pity, little brother Ye, that your evil spirit is too strong, and it doesn't match the word 'qian'." The old man with a white beard said with a pity look on his face.
Ye Qian couldn't help but smile bitterly. Why did he suddenly feel that the old man in front of him was the same as the swindler on the street who stole food and drink.
"Brother Ye, do you know where this chess piece comes from?" the white-bearded old man asked again.
"Where did it come from?" Ye Qian said.
"Comes from the heart." The old man with the white beard said in a mysterious and profound manner.
"Get off first." Ye Qian didn't want to listen to this old man talking so much. He didn't know why. As soon as he came in, he just wanted to get out early. He felt an inexplicable feeling of rejection, and he also disliked the white-bearded old man in front of him. Also very repulsive.
"Then I won't refuse, I will be the centerpiece." The old man with the white beard did not give in and took the lead in making the chess move.
"Dismount." Ye Qian showed some inexplicable impatience and just wanted to leave here as soon as possible.
"Brother Ye, it's true that there is a path under the horse, but it may not be the right path. Seeing that you are restless, this is a taboo in chess." The old man with a white beard raised his head and looked at Ye Qian with a smile.
Seeing the smiling face of the white-bearded old man, Ye Qian became even more disgusted with the old man in front of him, and immediately said impatiently: "You can't win this chess game. If you can't, let me go."
"Down, of course." The old man with the white beard said still calmly.
"General." Not long after, Whitebeard got out of the car and saw that Ye Qian had no choice but to leave.
"Little brother, I told you that your restlessness is a taboo in chess. It would be weird if you don't lose." The white-bearded old man looked at Ye Qian with a smile.
"Okay, I'm willing to admit defeat, let me go." Ye Qian didn't care about winning or losing in this game, he just wanted to leave as soon as possible.
"Let's go." The white-bearded old man's expression suddenly changed, murderous intent suddenly emerged, and a powerful force locked Ye Qian.
