Forced to Zhongnan Chapter 65: The Magical Use of Balls
The commoner man and his son, like fallen leaves blown by the wind, stretched out their feet and tapped a few points on the broken ice, and then they reached the top of the water where Yan Yun had emerged earlier.
In this moment, Yan Yun didn't know where he was under the lake.
No matter who you are, you can't hold your breath for too long. There will always be a time when your head comes out. Moreover, the water is too cold for ordinary people to soak in it for a long time. Once the temperature is lost, it will be like seeking death.
The commoner man was very sure about this. He released his spiritual consciousness and began to investigate again.
However, this time he miscalculated, and Yan Yun seemed to have drowned in the lake. Even after a stick of incense passed, he still did not surface.
If Yan Yun hadn't behaved too unexpectedly, the best explanation would be that he had drowned. He would just have to wait a few more days and the body would float up on its own.
But neither the man in commoner nor the young man in black dared to make this conclusion.
"Where does this lake connect to?" asked the commoner man.
"This...child doesn't know."
"Ask someone who knows!"
"yes……"
However, most of the people in the entire inner city who are familiar with palace affairs have become dead souls in the Netherworld Soul Flag, especially those eunuchs who are particularly loyal to the emperor and are really hard to find.
Seeing his son's hesitation, the commoner man activated the universe in his sleeves, made mental contact with his ghost flag, and conveyed the order to the ghost king.
After a while, more than a hundred Taoist people holding Netherworld Soul Flags rushed over. Among them were eunuchs, slaves, concubines, etc.
"Mr. Li, Mr. Li..." Everyone greeted the common man and his son in unison.
"Where does this lake connect to?" the young man in black asked.
Everyone looked at each other, obviously not knowing.
"Then you go down to the lake and look for it!" the young man in black said through gritted teeth.
"May I ask Mr. Li, what are we looking for?" asked a good-looking woman, who turned out to be Concubine Xiao.
"A person, a man, or an underwater cave."
"Do I have to go to the lake? Isn't it forbidden to use the soul flag's blood map to check it?"
"You can try and ask again."
The soul flag map has a limited detection range and uses air as the medium, so it cannot be detected underwater at all.
More importantly, even in a normal environment, the red spot representing Yan Yun cannot be displayed on the soul flag map, but is blank, because a new ghost king was born in his soul flag.
Yanyun has become a series of its own!
If outsiders want to use the blood map to detect Yan Yun, there is only one possibility, and that is that Yan Yun, like the common man, refined the split flag and the ghost king clone, and happened to have one of the split flags taken away by others, so he could pass the split flag.
Find the red dot representing Yan Yun on the blood energy map.
Half an hour later, a group of trembling Nether Soul Flag holders emerged from the water one after another.
Someone found a hole underwater. The hole was not very big. The first ten feet or so could barely accommodate a person to climb in. As it went further in, it became smaller and smaller, like the tip of a bull's horn.
How could anyone get into such a cave?
But no one was found, only this hole was found, and it was considered an explanation.
"Let's all disperse." The man in civilian clothes said calmly.
The crowd dispersed and hurried back to change clothes.
"Go and have a look," the man in civilian clothes said again.
Obviously, he kept the crowd away to prevent the father and son from being seen by his subordinates after they emerged from the water, which would degrade his dignity.
After just a few breaths, there was a splash on the water, and the father and son returned to the bridge.
The two of them immediately sat down and did some exercises to drive away the cold. After a while, steam started to rise from their clothes.
"Father, it's impossible for that person to get into such a small hole." Although the man in black was unwilling, he still comforted himself and said, "Maybe this person really froze to death in the lake. In a few days, we should be able to find out."
"not necessarily!"
"Father, are you saying that this person actually carries a water escape talisman?" The man in black shook his head and thought that this matter was too ridiculous. "The value of each water escape talisman is extremely high. Who would take such a precious thing?" Leave it to a mortal to use?"
"Maybe it's something with the same effect as the Water Escape Talisman, I don't know." The man in cloth changed the subject and said, "The entire royal city will be on heightened alert and everyone will be sent out..."
At this time, an old man with a bright head hurriedly walked over from a distance carrying a lantern with a nervous expression. This man was none other than Grand Master Pang Yu.
The commoner man smiled and asked: "Cousin, it's so late and the weather is cold. If you don't want to rest in your room, what are you doing here?"
Pang Yu panted and replied: "There is a sudden big movement in this palace. I am worried. Come and take a look..."
"Haha, if you are worried about anything, just keep it in your heart, cousin, and go back and rest."
"Cousin, I know you are a god-like figure on land, but you cannot be taken lightly..."
"Cousin, can it be that I can't trust me, Li Du?" The man in civilian clothes spoke calmly, but there was an irresistible majesty about him.
Pang Yu was speechless, sighed, and hurried away again.
Seeing this, the young man in black sneered: "Hey, Uncle Pang is too courageous. It doesn't matter if he puts a king under house arrest. Even if he replaces him, it won't change the world."
The commoner man didn't think there was anything wrong with his son's words, and said: "He is just a mortal. How can he have the vision of a monk? There is no need to be as knowledgeable as him."
The young man in black suddenly said seriously: "Father, let your son deal with that man just now. He destroyed my little ghost clothes. If he dies, that's all. If he is still alive, I will dig him out even if he is still alive." !”
"Even if you become Xiao Guiyi, you only have a chance to become a little ghost, but that mortal accidentally made Xiao Guiyi give birth to a new ghost king, and also took away a flag from me. This is one person's luck and kindness. Luck, you have to believe it." The commoner man said solemnly, "If you beat the snake, you will suffer the consequences. I don't care what you do, but you must ensure that you will definitely do it. That person just now, I want to see the person dead or the corpse! "
"Don't worry, father, your child will never disgrace his life!"
"Oh? Do you have something up your sleeve?"
"The rescue of King Beilin must have something to do with this person. I have a subordinate named Bai Chong, and his magic weapon is in the hands of this person."
"King Beilin escaped?"
"Yes, my father is practicing in seclusion, so I didn't dare to disturb him..."
"Hmph... some small fish and shrimps dare to be bold! In that case, just go ahead and do it."
A long and zigzag gap extends upward, and the water flow brings the air from far away.
The water passing through the ground also feels warm. Although it is very cold, it will not freeze.
When Yan Yun was forced to escape by the commoner men, he found that the lake water was slowly flowing in one direction. He dived down and took a look, and found that there was a cave on the shore of the underwater lake that could accommodate one person to crawl into.
He got in without having time to think. When the front became smaller and smaller, and it seemed that there was no room for him, he did not feel blocked.
He was not stuck in the gap, just like a loach, he quickly slid through it in his own incomprehension.
Yan Yun couldn't imagine what had happened to his body, and he couldn't turn his head back. He could only see the crooked gaps in front of him.
But he had seen something like this happen to him once, when Bai Chong, who was covered in fat, got into a crack in the ground and was finally beaten to death with a chain hammer.
At that time, something fell out of Bai Chong's head. It was red and shiny, the size of a child's fist. Yan Yun kept it in his breastplate.
At this time, he felt that his speed of drilling into the ground suddenly slowed down. It should be that the speed charm had expired, but he couldn't take it out to check.
There was no feeling in his hands, as if they had disappeared into thin air.
He was so worried that he was afraid of getting stuck in the gap created by the running water, so he could only push upward with all his strength.
Soon, a breath of fresh air breathed into Yan Yun's lungs, and the upper half of his body came out of the gap like pulling out a carrot.
He glanced around and saw that this was a snow-covered hill. The surrounding scenery was also very familiar. There were dense piles of graves, and not far away was the place where his mother was buried.
He quickly became aware of his arms and hands. He raised his hands and looked at them. All his fingers were intact. His robe was almost torn into rags, sticky and full of mud.
He also saw that the lower half of his body was still stuck in the ground, so he put his hands on the ground and lifted it out.
It didn't matter. From the buttocks to the thighs and calves, it came out quickly, but the moment it came out of the gap, Yan Yun almost fainted from fright.
For a moment, he suspected that he was possessed by Bai Chong's disgusting pile of compost. His lower body was limp, leaving only flesh and tattered rags stuck together.
Fortunately, as soon as he came out of the gap, it only took a few breaths for his legs and feet to return to normal immediately. His bones were sound, but his shoes fell off.
Yan Yun took a long breath, and his heart fell to the ground.
He looked at the position where he had drilled out, and saw that it was between two pieces of shale. It was as flat as a knife and no more than ten inches wide. He couldn't believe that his flesh and blood body could pass through such a narrow gap!
At this moment, Yan Yun was completely naked. Except for his breastplate, which was intact, his clothes and pants were completely ruined.
But he had no time to think about it, so he grabbed a handful of snow, washed his hands, and grabbed it into his breastplate.
On the two talismans, the speed talisman has faded away and is like ordinary kraft paper. When it comes into contact with the air, it turns into fly ash and leaves no trace.
The other power talisman only had a faint glow on its surface, and it probably wouldn't last long.
He dug deeper into the breastplate and took out the ball from his chest.
When the ball first appeared, it was like a living thing, with layers of light flashing. It soon returned to normal, and it was just a bright red ball with a layer of blood stains on the surface.
The blood belongs to Yan Yun. It was precisely because he used two talismans at the same time that blood oozed from his pores, which inadvertently activated the properties of the ball, allowing him to escape!
It is said that it was Yan Yun's chance that Bai Chong was a strange person with the attributes of an earth insect. Except for a body of fat and no bones, he had the appearance of a human through the shaping of his armor and the control of his own fat.
Afraid of being laughed at, he never revealed his animal attributes to anyone.
Therefore, even the young man in black didn't know the details of Bai Chong, and thought he was just obese.
