The Beauty of the Tang Dynasty is Like a Cloud / the Story of the Evil King Among the Flowers of the

Dugu Ce seemed to understand what Orion's big brother Haricuo meant, so he kept silent.Then Dugu Ce said to Haricuo in a low voice: "Then, are there still people from Xixia Yipintang around here?"

Haricuo bent down and stuck to Duguce's side, and said suicidally: "Yes, brother, you were so lucky when you came. Two days ago, there was a person who looked like a little girl, but her skills were terrible. I caught a young monk who didn't know where he came from in the mountain, and flew to the depths of the mountain in a flash, and I never saw that little monk again."

Listening to Haricuo's cautious words to Dugu Ce, Dugu Ce's mind was spinning rapidly. "A peerless expert who looks like a little girl, could it be Tianshan Child Elder? But why did Tianshan Child Elder appear in Xixia, and why did she appear in Li Qiushui's Xixia Yipintang?" These questions troubled Dugu Ce, making him puzzled. untie.

The Orion in front of him saw that Dugu Ce was lost in thought, thinking that he was also afraid of Xixia Yipintang in his heart, so he couldn't help laughing, patted Dugu Ce on the shoulder, and said to him: "It's okay, brother, I'm here I'm the only hunter in the kilometer, they all know me, as long as you stay with me, you won't have any problems, don't worry! After dinner, I'll take you out and let you see Brother, how accurate is my bow and arrow!" After finishing speaking, he burst out laughing again.

At this time, Haricuo's wife Duo'er, who was preparing meals in the back room, came out, and smiled lightly at Dugu Ce: "Little girl, please be polite. Haricuo usually stays with hunting dogs and tigers, and there is no one who can talk to him. When you suddenly appeared, my family Haricuo seemed more excited, please don't mind." Duo'er's words seemed to be very well-informed, and after that, Duo'er gave Haricuo a look, as if blaming him for being too happy to surprise the guests .

Dugu Ce smiled and waved his hands again and again: "Sister-in-law, you are welcome. If I hadn't met Brother Haricuo and you, I might have died in this snow-capped mountain. I will definitely repay this life-saving grace in the next day!"

After finishing speaking, Duo'er also turned around and returned to the kitchen to bring out hot meals, which were light and simple at any time, but there was no shortage of meat, and it seemed very rich. The three of them sat down and began to eat.

Dugu Ce's cultivation had already reached the bigu stage, but he was hiding in the Orion's house in the snow mountain, pretending to be a lost pedestrian, of course he couldn't show his flaws, so he ate with the two of them.

But at the dinner table, Dugu Ce began to think about what happened in his mind.Ever since I frightened Li Qiushui and Tianshan Child Elder away in front of the uncharacterized jade disc, I found Li Qiushui first, rather than saying that she was in the Central Plains at that time, it would be better to say that she was near Vulture Palace on Misty Peak.Now, in order to find Tianshan Child Elder, I actually came to the site of Yipintang on the border of Xixia, and both of them appeared at each other's place by coincidence. Is this just a coincidence?When I go out with Orion Haricuo in the afternoon, I must secretly explore the reality of Yipintang. On the surface, the meal is lively and lively, but in Dugu Ce's heart, it is full of worries.

The meal was soon finished, leaving Haricuo's wife, Duo'er, to clean up at home, and Dugu Ce followed Haricuo out.

Just look at Haricuo’s large bow on his back, which is about 1.5 meters long. The bow is made of some unknown bones. The bow strings are black and thick, as if drawn from the tendons of some animal.The whole bow is not fancy, but the shape is simple and simple, giving people a heavy feeling.Haricuo was also a muscular man, he pulled out two tall horses from nowhere, handed the rein of one to Dugu Ce's hand, and jumped onto one of them.

Dugu Ce secretly praised: "What a mighty man, although he doesn't master the martial arts, but his well-developed tendons and his daily hunting skills are enough to fight against three or five ordinary martial arts people." Then Dugu Ce Ce turned on the horse and pulled the reins, and the fierce horse neighed, indicating that he could follow Haricuo's footsteps.

Haricuo laughed heartily, and shouted: "Brother, I did not misunderstand you. Let's go, today I will show you the snowy scenery on the border of Xixia!" Mercedes up.Dugu Ce also followed closely behind, pulling up two streams of blue smoke in the white snow-capped mountains.

That is, within three or two sticks of incense, the two galloped out of the surrounding mountains and came to a plain. After passing this plain, there was a dense forest in the distance.

Haricuo reined in the horse, stretched out his whip and pointed it in the direction of the dense forest, then turned his head and said to Dugu Ce: "Brother, let's go hunting through that dense forest today, and there are all the treasures bestowed on us by God!" Then Haricuo turned the whip in his hand and pointed to the other side, which is the direction of the other exit of the mountains. Haricuo shouted loudly again: "Brother, have you seen that side! Go through the group After the mountain, there is an underground palace, which is the hiding place of the powerful guys from Xixia Yipintang that I told you about during lunch. Brother, you are alone, don’t go through there by yourself, it’s too dangerous, remember the little girl-like master I told you about, she’s amazing, I just saw her plundering a little girl that day Monk, fly in that direction!"

Volume 51 "Dragon Babu" [-] Chamber of Secrets

Dugu Ce followed Haricuo on the way out, and he had already heard him introduce the basic situation of the neighborhood. Now that he learned that the whereabouts of the little girl that Haricuo said was the direction where the Tianshan Child Elder was hiding, he couldn't help feeling even more worried. Ok guess.The person Haricuo saw that day was Tianshan Child Elder, and the place where Tianshan Child Elder is now is probably near Li Qiushui's Xixia Yipintang. As for the little monk that Tianshan Child Elder forcibly took away , this Dugu policy cannot be guessed.But why did Tianshan Child Elder and Li Qiushui appear on each other's territory at the same time? Although Li Qiushui didn't explain this to him, he blamed himself for not thinking of this at the beginning, and didn't ask him face to face. He could only investigate Tianshan by himself. Child Elder, it is possible to know.

Dugu Ce's top priority right now is how to leave Haricuo alone to investigate the secret hidden in Yipintang that made Tianshan Child Elder curious.Thinking of this, Dugu Ce shouted and stopped Haricuo, just as he turned his head, he met Dugu Ce's eyes.

In an instant, Haricuo lost consciousness, and fell off the horse drowsily. As soon as Dugu Ce raised his hand, he supported Haricuo's body with spiritual power, so that he didn't fall off the horse.Dugu Ce slowly put Haricuo on the ground, waved his hands at the same time, and struck out a burst of spiritual power in the air, only to see this group of light blue spiritual power swaying in mid-air, slowly becoming transparent Yes, shrouded Haricuo and the horses.Dugu Ce stood up and walked out of the area covered by the group of spiritual power. Looking back, he couldn't see any trace of Haricuo.Dugu Ce nodded in satisfaction, feeling that Haricuo would never have any problems in a short period of time, so he felt relieved.

In a blink of an eye, Dugu Ce was already galloping away in the direction Haricuo had pointed out earlier.Dugu Ce's speed is so fast, almost in the blink of an eye, he has passed through this snow mountain. After the snow mountain passed, Dugu Ce's eyes suddenly opened up.

There is an empty palace in front of me. It is said to be a palace, but it is actually dilapidated. From the outside, it seems to have been in disrepair for a long time, and there will be absolutely no traces of people. If Dugu Ce felt that there is indeed a human breath in the palace , and at the same time Haricuo's guidance, they will never know that there is a hidden mystery here, which is the secret stronghold of Xixia Yipintang.

Dugu Ce looked around, and found that no one had noticed his arrival. At the same time, he closed his eyes and used his spiritual sense to probe the interior of the palace inch by inch. After a while, Dugu Ce had already figured out the abandoned palace. up.

It turns out that although the palace looks dilapidated, there are secrets hidden inside. Entering through the main entrance, you will be greeted by a sealed iron wall. There are huge statues carved on the wall, like totems, like beasts but not beasts. , seeming human but not human, Dugu Ce didn't know what this totem represented.On both sides are the original passages of the palace. The two long corridors look eerie, and the walls have fallen off, leaving mottled traces of time.

But if you put your thoughts on the corridors on both sides, you will undoubtedly be misled. The real mystery is the statue hidden on the wall.There is a protruding animal claw on the statue. Dugu Ce's spiritual consciousness has already discovered that this animal claw has traces of being moved for a long time.

I saw Dugu Ce striding into the palace, the hall was empty, Dugu Ce went straight to the facing wall, put his hand on the protruding animal claw, and pressed hard.

With a sound of "squeak", I saw a wooden board protruding from the other side of the wall, which seemed to be equipped with some kind of noise reduction device. The wooden board was suddenly pushed out, flipped open and buckled on the wall. movement.Dugu Ce felt that it was interesting, he chuckled lightly, and slowly walked towards the flashing secret door that popped up.

Dugu Ce leaned in and carefully looked at the secret room inside the trap door. Just as Dugu Ce guessed, there was something special inside.

Dugu Ce strode into this secret room. The secret room was pitch black. Ordinary people must bring enough lighting equipment to move around normally.But these can't be called Dugu Ce. Dugu Ce's cultivation has reached the realm of perfection, and he is already more than one level higher than the martial arts in this world. The means used to hinder ordinary warriors naturally cannot work on him. .

Dugu Ce continued to walk towards the house as if walking on flat ground, without the slightest movement, like a terrifying hunter looking for his prey in the dark.

Suddenly, after passing through the long corridor, Dugu Ce saw a secret passage extending underground. The secret passage was not long, only less than ten meters, but at the other end of the secret passage was a dark wooden door.From inside the wooden door, there was a vague coolness, and Dugu Ce felt very clearly the changes in the external environment, and felt the coolness emanating almost instantly.

Dugu Ce let out a gasp in surprise, and thought to himself: "Could it be that there is a place like ice and snow hidden behind this door? The ground is already covered with ice and snow. According to common sense, the underground should be a solid layer of soil. Then the temperature at the bottom of the ground should be obviously higher than that above the ground. But now, the stairs leading to the ground are actually colder than the ground, which doesn’t make sense.”

Dugu Ce tried to use his spiritual sense to find out what secrets were hidden underground, but unfortunately, because the temperature underground was too cold, the invasion of Dugu Ce's spiritual sense had been severely blocked.The huge temperature difference between the surface and the ground seemed to have been reversed. The ground that was supposed to be cold was actually warm, which seemed to be caused by the sun.But the underground, which should have been warmer, unexpectedly spread a biting chill, which seemed to form a natural protective cover, perfectly blocking anyone who wanted to explore the underground secret room.

Dugu Ce was surprised to find that this kind of chill was indeed unusual, but it was just an ordinary chill, and there must be some kind of secret treasure hidden in it to gather this chill so purely.

However, a mere chill can't scare off Dugu Ce's footsteps. What really makes Dugu Ce stop and think is why Li Qiushui's territory should be in the first place, but now it is full of the breath of her life-and-death enemy Tianshan Child Elder!

Volume 52 "Dragon Babu" [-] Ice Room

From the moment Dugu Ce stepped into this secret room, he had keenly felt that this abandoned palace, or the secret stronghold of Xixia Yipintang, was all the breath of Tianshan Child Elder, which made Dugu Ce very It's hard to understand, if Tianshan Child Elder sneaked into the secret stronghold of Xixia Yipintang, then she must be extremely careful and dare not leave any clues.But now, even the traces of the animal's claws on the wall being moved have not been erased, as if they have come to their own home swaggeringly.Could it be that Li Qiushui and Tianshan Child Elder had some kind of secret agreement in private?For the time being, Dugu Ce didn't think clearly about the key point, so he simply settled down and decided to find out.

I saw Dugu Ce striding down the secret passage, holding the doorknob, pushing hard, and the door opened.There was a cold breath blowing towards his face, Dugu Ce frowned, and raised his eyes to observe the scene inside the secret room.He was surprised to find that what caught his eyes was pieces of blue ice cubes. These ice cubes were neatly stacked together and piled up to form such a secret room. No matter if it was stairs, handrails, walls, tables and chairs, as long as The things that can be seen are all made of huge ice blocks.

Dugu Ce frowned. Why did Li Qiushui's Xixia Yipintang hide a secret room made of ice cubes? Dugu Ce continued to walk in, wanting to find out.

After actually entering this secret room, Dugu Ce was surprised to find that there is something hidden inside.The compartments are next to each other, and there is a curved and far-reaching corridor in the middle.The end of the corridor could no longer be seen directly with the naked eye, but the surrounding area was extremely bright.After thinking about it for a while, Dugu Ce understood the mystery. It turns out that this huge secret room is all made of ice blocks. As long as there is a little light in the room, the whole secret room will be radiantly reflected by the blue ice cubes. Abnormally bright.

Dugu Ce couldn't help but nodded at this secret room. Although it was all made of ice blocks and repaired, the structure in it was ingenious enough that it must have been designed by professional skilled craftsmen. It only needs a huge manpower project, but also has a certain geographical advantage.Because there is a snow-capped mountain above the ground here, it is much more convenient to retrieve the ice cubes and maintain the secret room.

Dugu Ce was amazed, just this secret room, without a certain amount of strength, is a huge project that absolutely cannot be completed.He couldn't help taking a high look at Li Qiushui and the Xixia Dynasty behind Li Qiushui.

But now is not the time to visit the secret room. Dugu Ce has more important things to do. He didn't have the time to study the structure of the ice secret room carefully. Instead, he tried to open the door of one of the compartments, wanting to know these There is something in the secret room.

But to Dugu Ce's disappointment, he went into several compartments in a row, and there were some sundries piled up in them, such as spare food. The temperature here is very low, so whether it's meat, fruits and vegetables I don't know how long the ingredients have been stored, but the ingredients have not rotted and can still be eaten.This was almost useless to Dugu Ce. After failing to find any clues in several compartments in a row, Dugu Ce frowned, planning to go through these useless storage rooms and go straight to the depths of the ice room.

After Dugu Ce made up his mind, he would release his divine sense at any time to find out who else was hiding in the depths of the secret room.But after a while, Dugu Ce only found out that there seemed to be only three people in this secret room, and one of them had the deepest and longest breath. Dugu Ce confirmed that the owner of this breath was Tianshan Child Elder.But near Tianshan Child Elder, there are still two fuzzy auras, Dugu Ce can probably only distinguish between a man and a woman, but these two people don't seem to have any profound martial arts cultivation, they are just ordinary people.

Dugu Ce was even more curious about why there were only two ordinary people in the secret base of Xixia Yipintang, except Tianshan Child Elder.

Dugu Ce slowly approached the depths of the ice room, like a ghost, approaching Tianshan Child Elder soundlessly.Turning a corner, what you see is two independent secret rooms. Outside the secret room is a platform with a circle above and below.On the platform stood a portrait that was also carved from ice.

Dugu Ce took a sudden look and was shocked, the man carved in this statue was Wu Yazi.The sculpture of this statue is extremely realistic, except for the icy blue light, its posture and expression are exactly the same as the Wu Yazi that Dugu Ce has seen in Li Qiushui's memory.

However, the statue's clothes were incomplete. It looked like it had been destroyed by someone for many years, but this person did not dare to destroy the statue. He carefully controlled the power and did not dare to damage the whole part of the statue.

Duguce guessed that this must have been done by Li Qiushui, he had nowhere to vent his years of anger, so he could only secretly flog the statue of Wu Yazi in the secret room, but he was never willing to completely destroy the statue of Wu Yazi in his heart, so It was only then that the contradiction in front of him appeared, but it could be reasonably explained.
