The Tale of the Kraken

Chapter 695

After Lanyue heard this sentence, she was stunned for a while, then pointed to the path paved with stones and said: "Then go down this path, although it may be a little harder than before. , but there is always a way.”

Yang Yang's original thinking was the same as hers, and he was even a little fortunate that there was such a stone road on this side of the mountain.

"But you haven't thought about why there is a stone road here, but a plank road over there?" After hearing Lanyue's words, Qingyi smiled slightly, looked at her and asked.

When Lan Yue was asked this question, she was silent for a long time and then said: "I don't know... Could it be that I didn't have time to cultivate that side before?"

Lan Yue said so, and then denied her own thoughts in her mind. After all, even if the current monsters seldom use monster power due to the tyranny of spiritual power, it does not mean that the previous monsters were also like this.

After all, the stone road in front of me, as well as the plank road before, were obviously built when the Xuanwu clan still appeared in Xuanwu City.

At that time, the spiritual power of the demon world was still very gentle.

After taking care of those things in the human world, the demon world has even seen a great improvement, at least in terms of cultivation, many monsters at that time have been upgraded by a level.

It was precisely because of the abundant spiritual power at that time that it led to the prosperity and development of the demon world, and even made the monsters completely cut off the idea of ​​returning to the human world.

If it weren't for some races having their own responsibilities in the human world, there wouldn't even be the only life-saving straw in the demon world - the channel between the human world and the demon world.

Lanyue was born relatively early, and she still remembers going to the human world with her parents once when she was young.

But like other monsters, they didn't want to do anything when they went to the human world, nor did they want to live there for a long time, they just went to see where the monsters used to live.

After all, for monsters, especially the older generation of monsters, Kyushu in the human world is their real hometown.

Although they live very well in the demon world, it is also a good choice to go back and visit once in a while.

Thinking about it now, everyone is very grateful that they built a road to and from the human world, leaving a retreat for the monsters in the demon world.

But let’s not mention these, first of all, after Lan Yue said that sentence, she immediately knew that her idea was wrong, because it was absolutely impossible for her to repair it in time. A mountain road with a certain degree can be completed in one night.

In any case, the situation she said will not happen.

On the other side, looking at her expression, Qingyi knew what she was thinking of, so she smiled and said: "You also know that this is impossible, so the only explanation is that it was done on purpose."

"On purpose?" Yang Yang raised his eyebrows when he heard this. He actually felt a little strange, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.

The biggest question is, what is the mystery of such a stone road?

"These stones are not ordinary stones." Qingyi said, glanced at the two, pointed to the stone on the stone road and said: "Look at the pattern on the stone, don't they vaguely resemble eye patterns? "

When Qingyi said this, the two of them looked at the stone and felt that the patterns on it were indeed as she said, and the more they looked at it, the more they looked like eyes.

Seeing the two people staring at the stone, Qingyi continued to say: "I have seen it in the ancient books of the clan. This kind of stone is a special product of the settlement of the Xuanwu clan. It is called Muwenshi, which means its The pattern looks like the eyes."

"That's true." Lan Yue said, nodded, and asked: "Is there anything special about this stone? Does it have something to do with illusion?"

Now it was Qingyi's turn to be shocked, she naturally knew that unless she took a specific ointment on this kind of stone, walking on it would definitely cause hallucinations.

It doesn't matter in normal times, after all, this is just a dead thing, and the hallucinations produced only take a while to pass.

But this is on the mountain, and there is a cliff beside it. Not to mention the tyranny of spiritual power, there are very few monsters who can use spiritual power in places without barriers.

Even in the past when spiritual power could be used by monsters at will, in such a place, one needs to be cautious.

"So, is this a method used by the Xuanwu people to prevent outsiders from approaching them?"

Hearing this, Yang Yang immediately said: "But in this case, I can't understand one thing..."

"What's the matter?" Qingyi asked with raised eyebrows.

"You also said that this road is definitely not built now. If it was built in the past, wouldn't the monsters at that time need to walk up the mountain like we do now?"

Yang Yang looked at Qingyi, and continued with some doubts: "If I remember correctly, you were not only able to fly so high, right? The reason why you are like this is entirely because of spiritual power? If it was before, Not to mention you, even monsters who can't fly can instruct their spiritual power to fly to the sky if they want to, right?"

"That's right." Qingyi nodded, confirming his statement.

The blue phoenix once soared above the Nine Heavens. As the vehicle of the Emperor of Heaven, there is no place in the Nine Provinces that they cannot reach. Even the Heavenly Palace above the Nine Heavens is allowed to come and go.

It's just that until now, because of her spiritual power, she can't even fly over such a small mountain, and she doesn't feel it if she doesn't say it. After Yang Yang said it, Qingyi felt very embarrassed.

"Then how are they sure that everyone will take this path?" Yang Yang asked after hearing her words: "Even if the rules of the Xuanwu tribe are established, not everyone will follow them, right? ?”

"That's right." Before Qingyi could speak, Lanyue said, "If I could fly, I wouldn't want to go up step by step!"

It is true that the character of the beast is not the kind of character that will obediently obey the rules, and there should be many monsters with a character like Lanyue in the demon world.

Especially those big monsters, they are used to doing things in their own way.

Even if they meet occasionally, they will disagree with each other, and asking them to climb the mountain step by step according to the regulations is something Qingyi can't even imagine.

"So... what do you mean?" By this time, Qingyi herself was a little dumbfounded.

She originally thought that if she couldn't go down this road, then she could only let Yang Yang and the others follow the method when they came.

Sitting on her back, she carried the two of them down the mountain together. Compared with going up the mountain, going down the mountain is supported by the airflow, and it is much easier without climbing.

But now that Yang Yang said this, she began to be unsure whether her thoughts were correct.

"I think if it's really like what you said, then this must be one of them." Like Qingyi, Yang Yang has also come into contact with those big monsters, and he knows the characters of those monsters too well.

Although they need to abide by some rules because they live in the human world, Yang Yang still can't imagine how monsters walk the mountain road step by step.

According to what Qingyi said before, this place was built only after the Xuanwu clan settled here.

In other words, the entire demon world became prosperous after the monsters moved here.

So it can be said that before the Xuanwu tribe came, there was nothing here at all, so there was no habit of the Xuanwu tribe to build this passage to prevent other races.

It's like a whole village is relocated, even if it's moved to another place, but if the old neighbors come and go, no one will somehow keep a dog in their own house to guard against thieves.

Therefore, Yang Yang guessed that if Yuan Mu and the others hadn't met before, it proved that the Xuanwu clan didn't have this method after they came here.

So how do they guard against those powerful big monsters who came from other places?

Yang Yang couldn't help turning his eyes to the forest below the mountain, and he said after a long time: "Since those big monsters can't go from here, there must be some precautionary measures on the way they must pass."

"What is the measure?" After hearing what he said, Lan Yue couldn't help asking.

"I don't know what the measures will be."

Yang Yang said so, turned to look at Qingyi and said: "But if you don't leave because of fear, it's obviously not okay. Since this stone road is no longer safe according to your book, we can only walk from the sky. past."

Qingyi nodded when she heard the words, motioning for him to continue talking.

"But we are not big monsters after all, so it is best to avoid the path they will take." Yang Yang laughed suddenly after saying this.

I don't understand why he laughed, but Lan Yue thought of another thing: "How do we know which way they will go?"

"If you were those big monsters, how would you go?" Yang Yang said, pointing to the island in the middle of the lake that looked like a black dot in the distance, and said, "It must fly directly there, and come here as conveniently as possible."

"Then we..." Qingyi has been in Wutong Palace all year round, and she herself is a blue luan bird, so she also has some understanding of the characters of those big monsters, so she can see through it.

"We'll try to get as close to this mountain as possible, and when we reach the ground, walk through the forest." Yang Yang said, turning his head to look at the two of them: "If I'm not wrong, there must be traces of the old business road in the forest."
