Chapter three hundred and ninety seventh nameless person and nameless place
Liang Jixiong looked at Taibu and asked: "What do you mean by ancestors? What do you mean by rules? What do you want to say, you old lunatic?"
"Hey hey hey!" Taibu laughed twice and disappeared suddenly.
Liang Jixiong had no intention of paying attention to divination and looked for traces of Xu Zhiqiong everywhere.
Zhong Shen didn't have the skills to find people, so he hurried back to the Imperial City Division and ordered his men to investigate everywhere.
Chang Decai was dumbfounded and didn't know what to do. He simply went to the Punishment Department and found Xia Hu in the Zhonglang Pavilion: "Madam, it's bad, the master has been lost!"
…
A gust of cold wind blew by, and Xu Zhiqiong opened his eyes.
There was a fierce battle with Sui Zhi before, but two reinforcements were already in place, and there was also an uninvited diviner. No matter how you looked at it, Sui Zhi had no chance of survival.
Why did he fall asleep in the blink of an eye?
Why did you come to this place as soon as you opened your eyes?
Where is this place?
Xu Zhiqiong looked around and saw only grass.
There were withered grass and green grass. The yellow and green weeds grew up to his chest. Xu Zhiqiong looked around among the grass. Besides the weeds, there were still weeds.
Is this Huntiandang?
No, Huntiandang has a compelling Yin energy, which is purer than the underworld. Even Xu Zhiqiong cannot resist it.
The atmosphere here was quite normal, and Xu Zhiqiong didn't feel any discomfort.
Anyway, leave this place first.
Xu Zhiqiong touched the Zhonglang seal.
no response.
Is this place isolated?
Is this the underworld?
Who brought me here?
Xu Zhiqiong raised his head and looked up at the night sky and saw the stars.
There are no stars in the underworld. When you look up, you can only see the vast mist.
This should still be the human world.
Since he is in the human world and cannot return to Zhonglangyuan, he must be restricted by some kind of magic circle.
After walking out of the magic circle, you will naturally meet Zhonglangyuan. Everything will be easy to talk about when you return to Zhonglangyuan.
Let's see if there is a road nearby.
There is no road, there are weeds all around, you can go wherever you want.
But wherever you go, you have to have a direction.
Xu Zhiqiong looked up at the sky, and according to the horoscopes given to him by Taifu, he found the seven constellations in the north with great difficulty.
Why go north?
In fact, it's the same no matter where you go, as long as you make sure you can walk in a straight line.
The area of the magic circle is definitely limited. With Xu Zhiqiong's speed, running in the same direction, he can definitely run out of the range of the magic circle in a cup of tea.
After spending a cup of tea, Xu Zhiqiong overestimated himself.
First of all, Zhonglang Yin did not react, he was still within the range of the magic circle.
Secondly, he didn't run very far. He couldn't run fast in this wild grass.
This grass has grown for who knows how many years. The stems and leaves above are thick and the roots are tangled under the feet. Every step is very difficult.
Xu Zhiqiong felt a stinging pain in his ankle. He rolled up his pants and saw a caterpillar the size of a thumb biting at his ankle, which was bleeding.
Is this thing poisonous?
Xu Zhiqiong tore off the caterpillar and threw it aside. He pulled out the blade and used it as a sickle to clear the way.
After a few cuts, Xu Zhiqiong threw away the blade. The grass stems were so strong that even the blade couldn't cut them!
Xu Zhiqiong took out the Star Iron Halberd. Not to mention, this thing is very useful. With one strike of the halberd, it can cut down a large piece of weeds.
Xu Zhiqiong walked forward while clearing the path. Every dozen steps he took, he tested the Zhonglang Seal.
After walking for more than half an hour, there was still no response from Zhonglang Yin. Xu Zhiqiong wiped his sweat, looked at the long road behind him, and couldn't help but said to himself: "How big is this magic circle?"
"Don't waste your efforts," a voice came from above. "There is a person who can run faster than you. He ran all day and all night without getting out."
Xu Zhiqiong raised his head and saw a man floating above his head.
He is visually estimated to be 7 feet 23 tall, wearing a blue cloth robe. He looks in his forties, has plump cheeks, is slightly chubby, has eyes like torches, and has a beard nearly a foot long. He has an extraordinary temperament.
Xu Zhiqiong had seen this man before in the Canglong Palace, on the day when the prince was testing his cultivation.
He was the guard brought by King Jin. He was wearing an iron helmet that day, and the iron helmet was held down very low. Xu Zhiqiong could not see his appearance clearly in the Canglong Palace.
But Li Shabai saw clearly and drew his appearance in the painting, and repeatedly warned Xu Zhiqiong to be careful about this person.
Xu Zhiqiong asked: "Dare you ask Gao's name?"
The man looked down at Xu Zhiqiong and said, "My surname is Liang, just call me Liang Wuming."
Liang Wuming.
He didn't want to say the name.
"Since the surname is Liang, could it be that he belongs to the Daxuan royal family?"
Liang Wuming nodded.
Xu Zhiqiong said: "Since we are members of the royal family of Daxuan, how come we don't abide by the laws of Daxuan? But we do violence to the man holding the lantern?"
Liang Wuming laughed loudly when he heard this: "You are an interesting person. Please tell me why the royal family must abide by the royal law? Are the royal laws set by the royal family? Are you really the emperor who breaks the law and the common people are equally guilty? This is a joke to deceive those fools.
, can you still take it seriously?"
Xu Zhiqiong smiled and said: "I really take it seriously."
Liang Wuming nodded and said: "That's right, you are a bold and sycophantic minister, and you have really committed the unpardonable crime of regicide!"
Xu Zhiqiong shook his head and said: "It is not guilty of killing the faint king."
"You say he is a foolish king. Can you tell me why?"
Xu Zhiqiong said: "Isn't it the act of a foolish king to cut off the territory of Daxuan and hand it over to foreign enemies?"
Liang Wuming shook his head and said: "The country of Daxuan is the country of my Liang family. Just like how many acres of land you have in front of your house, you can give it to whomever you want. What's the crime?"
Xu Zhiqiong asked again: "Tens of thousands of people were killed, but it was not the fault of a foolish king?"
Liang Wuming still shook his head: "The people of Daxuan are also the people of my Liang family. Just like if you raise some cattle and sheep at home, you can kill as many as you want. What's the crime?"
Xu Zhiqiong asked again: "If he practices evil ways, is he considered a fool?"
"I also know that Taotie is greedy," Liang Wuming said, "Not to mention that he practices the Taotie, but are you saying that you are not greedy?
You have only been in the judge's path for more than a year, and now you have reached the fifth level of cultivation. Do you dare to say that you are not greedy?
You earned enough merit to be promoted to the eighth rank, but you refused to be promoted. You took advantage of the ninth rank, hid all your merits, and skipped the eighth rank cultivation. Do you dare to say that you are not greedy?"
He also knows about this?
Liang Wuming seemed to have read through Xu Zhiqiong's thoughts and said with a smile: "Are you afraid? I know everything you do. I know everything about this world!"
You know everything?
This sentence really doesn't scare Xu Zhiqiong.
He does know the details of my practice.
But the reason was not as mysterious as he said.
Xiao Songting has contacts with the underworld, and he rescued Xiao Songting, proving that he also has connections with the underworld.
As long as you check the account books from the underworld, you can deduce that I have hidden my merits.
Liang Wuming continued: "It's not a sin for you to be greedy, but is it a sin for him to practice the Tao of Greed? The Tao of Greed and the Five Directions Righteous Path have the same root and origin, and they are both the Tao of Creation. How can right and wrong be summed up in one word?
"
He said the five directions are the right path?
Xu Zhiqiong asked: "You count the Judge's Way as the right way? This is not in line with the clan's rules."
Liang Wuming smiled and said: "The rules of the clan are not set for the clan. Do you want to know the origin of Judge Road? I can tell you that we have a business deal.
You return Emperor Zhaoxing's sins to me. He is already dead, and all his merits and demerits have turned into smoke. I can't bear his soul to continue to suffer.
As long as you give me his sinful karma, I will not only tell you the origin of the Judge's Way, but also give you a way to survive. Once you know the foundation of the Way, your cultivation will surely improve by leaps and bounds."
"Okay!" Xu Zhiqiong agreed, "The crime is not on me. You let me go and I will get it. I will give it to you immediately after I get it."
Liang Wuming smiled slightly and said, "Do you think you are really smart? Do you know how disgusting your foolish actions are? Do you think I can't force you to speak if you don't say anything?"
Yes, he has a way.
The easiest way is to torture.
Why didn't he take action?
Liang Wuming gave the answer: "I don't want to hurt you because I don't want to ruin my reputation. If I hit an ant hard, I don't know how much ridicule I will suffer."
Xu Zhiqiong said: "You tried so hard to catch an ant so far away, but you are not afraid of others laughing at you?"
"Such a far away place? Are you pretending to be smart? Do you know where this is?"
"What's so difficult about this?" Xu Zhiqiong smiled scornfully, "You can figure it out with a little guessing, but I just don't want to say it."
"You don't have to say, since you know this place, you just run away. I will give you three chances. I will let you escape three times. If you still can't escape after three times, I will treat you with all my kindness and righteousness. Don't blame me for being cruel when the time comes.
You run away."
Xu Zhiqiong looked at Liang Wuming and didn't move.
Liang Wuming smiled and said: "Why don't you run away? Isn't the judge the best at escaping?"
escape?
How to escape?
Run away?
If he can't find the right path, Xu Zhiqiong will never escape.
Three chances sounds like a lot, but it can run out in the blink of an eye.
By then, not only the opportunities will be exhausted, but also your own mental and physical strength. In despair, even your own will will collapse.
Seeing that Xu Zhiqiong still didn't move, Liang Wuming lowered his head and said: "Let me remind you, if you can't go to the Zhonglang Courtyard, you can try the Punishment Department. If you still can't go to the Punishment Department, you can look up and see here.
I can see the sky."
Can you see the sky?
What does this mean?
I can't go to the Zhonglang Courtyard, and I definitely can't go to the Punishment Department.
The visible sky...
Are you talking about a small dark room?
Because they all rely on the power of imagery to enter, Xu Zhiqiong has always regarded the Punishment Department, the Zhonglang Courtyard and the Little Black Room as places where yin and yang meet.
But he remembered what the evil star's clone said. He said at that time that the small dark room was the residence of the stars.
Does he know I have a dark room?
Is he suggesting that I go to the dark room?
It seems that he also knows one thing. He knows that I hid Emperor Zhaoxing's crimes in a small dark room.
There may be more to it than that. Is he just doing the sins of Emperor Zhaoxing?
Could he know anything else?
Will he be harmful to the master?
Xu Zhiqiong blinked, swung his iron halberd, and chopped down a large piece of weeds.
Liang Wuming asked in surprise: "What are you doing?"
Xu Zhiqiong lay down in the hay, closed his eyes and said, "I'm tired, let's take a nap."
Liang Wuming flew to Xu Zhiqiong's head: "You didn't hear what I just said? I asked you to run for your life! I asked you to run away three times!"
"Three times is too many," Xu Zhiqiong shook his head, "I want to escape, but once is enough."
Liang Wuming sat cross-legged in the air, looked at Xu Zhiqiong and said: "You just need to sleep peacefully. In this wasteland, as long as you stay for a day and a night, you are no longer a human being or a ghost. You are not even as good as an ant, but you are like
Like weeds, eternity will be rooted here forever."
Xu Zhiqiong turned over and paid no attention.
One day and one night, is this sentence true or false?
Xu Zhiqiong turned over and ignored Liang Wuming.
An emerald green grasshopper jumped in front of me. There were so many bugs in this wasteland.
Since there are so many bugs, could there be rats?
