The Girl and Her Sword [Comprehensive + Sword III]

There was no sun in Stone City, and the sky was always gray, as if a rainstorm was brewing, but the rainstorm never came down.

"What the hell kind of place is this?" Ye Nanxing scoffed after looking around.

"Who knows?" Ruan Qingwu walked away with his arms folded for a while, then turned around and said, "Zong Jin? What's wrong?"

"...I'm fine." Sanriyue blinked and smiled.

"Oh." Sometimes Qingwu is also big-hearted, when she sees what the other party says, she nods and then covers it, "Did you find anything?"

"I found it," San Riyue blinked, and pointed to a place seemingly casually, "Shall we go over there and have a look?"

"Oh?" Ruan Qingwu looked in the direction he pointed. The layout of the stone city was exactly the same as the ancient canal city in the illusion, and that direction was... the City Lord's Mansion.

"Then let's go." Ruan Qingwu thought about it and said, "Since we've already entered this predicament, it's better to go there to find clues. It's just that the place here is quite big, so we'd better split up.... Take this one." From her sleeve she pulled 3 bells made of exotic metal. "This is made with the special ore I found," Ruan Qingwu instructed, "We carry it with each other, and use this to communicate if necessary." After that, she taught the two how to use it.Then Qingwu walked to the city lord's mansion to the east, Sanriyue to the south, and Ye Nanxing to the north.

Then, when Qingwu was walking towards the City Lord's Mansion, Ye Nanxing's communication came from the bell, "Sister Wu, come here, something is wrong here!"

When Ruan Qingwu heard the words, she immediately turned and walked. It's strange to say here, as if her breath was suppressed. She just wanted to use lightness kung fu, but she couldn't use it at all, so she had to follow the direction and walk through the stone city.After turning a few streets, a colorful building appeared among the gray and white buildings. It looked like a small alley, and there seemed to be the sound of people drinking and laughing inside.

However, there was no Ye Nanxing.

Theoretically speaking, this should be where Ye Nanxing said something was wrong, but there is no sign of him here.

Ruan Qingwu became suspicious, stepped forward quietly, and observed carefully, the alley was undoubtedly made of wood, but what about the other gray and white buildings?She walked a little further, and on a building several yards away from the alley, she took out a file and scratched the wall.

Some powder fell off, it seemed to be lime, and it seemed to be something else, she rubbed it a few times, and suddenly thought of it.

Here are the bones.

To be precise, it is the ashes after the bones of thousands of people in this mass grave were incinerated.

Ruan Qingwu took out the horned dragon, and when the ashes met the horned dragon, they turned into black air and dissipated.

If the painted wall is a land of thousands of ghosts, where ghosts are forced to gather with the help of earth energy, then this place is a land of thousands of ghosts, a world of ghosts created by the right time, place, and people, and it is a land of ghosts that makes even the underworld daunting. where.

A person is small, fragile, and vulnerable.

However, the belief gathered by thousands of people is enough to change the world.

Back then, with the skeletons of tens of thousands of people as the foundation, and then suppressed by the yang energy of the people in the city, this ghost realm was barely sealed. Ruan Qingwu wanted to destroy this place alone, which can be described as a fantasy.

Thinking of this, she gave up the idea of ​​breaking it with strength, but walked towards the alley before.

The conversation in the alley continued.

"Is it safe to speak here?" the thick voice asked cautiously.

"It's safe, my lord. I've done some investigation. In a few days, it will be the big day for the daughter of the city lord, Fan Niang. Everyone is preparing for it. This place has been investigated before, so it doesn't matter much. Most of the troops in the city It has been transferred to support the imperial army, and the defense is empty, if your lord sends a small team disguised as the dowry cooks of the Ruan family to sneak into the mansion and cooperate with our army, it is just a mere canal city, it is not difficult to take it!" Another flattering The voice said hastily.

"My lord, this plan is feasible!" Another masculine and powerful voice said, "This Qucheng looks inconspicuous, but it is actually the best place for our army to make a detour. After going around to the imperial army, the two armies are attacking inside and outside, and it is not easy to win?"

"Hahaha, good!" The thick voice from before laughed and said, "As far as I'm concerned, the inner guard will arrive in a day, and by then, the rest will be left to you." , Liang Shi!"

"Liang will definitely live up to the trust!" The flattering voice hurriedly responded.

The small alley returned to silence.

Ruan Qingwu listened to the whole process with a blank face, turned Qiulong around, thought for a while, walked around to the back of the alley, opened a window at the back of the house, and glanced in.

There is a mahogany Eight Immortals table in the center, several chairs are neatly placed beside the table, a black bamboo screen is placed on the left, and a Duobaoge is on the right.Ruan Qingwu pondered for a while, then turned his gestures, and bounced a marble towards the wall of the room. The bullet bounced a few times on the wall and knocked down the screen from the inside, so that the back of the screen can be seen clearly.

Behind the screen is a bed, the bed is empty, nothing.

The marble bounced a few times on the ground, and the voice of the previous conversation sounded again.

"Who's outside!" shouted a masculine voice.

Ruan Qingwu leaped onto the roof, held his breath, and watched the changes in the windows.

Sure enough, the window creaked and no one opened it.

Then the sound came again.

"My lord, there is no one outside the window." The masculine voice said.

"Liang Shi, let me ask you, what is behind this screen?" A thick voice rang out.

"If the adult suspects the villain, just open it." Liang Shicheng said fearfully, "The villain will never dare to lie to the adult."

"My lord, there is nothing behind the screen." Said a masculine voice.

"..." The deep voice pondered for a long time before saying, "No matter what, this place is no longer safe, and the matter is of great importance. We must act faster."

"Yes." The other two voices answered.

Then there was another squeak, and the door of the alley opened for a while, then quietly closed again.

Ruan Qingwu didn't go down to open the door, taking advantage of the creaking sound, the person had already floated a foot away and landed on another roof. With his toes on the roof, he flipped backwards.

When she was leaving, she stuck a sound-transmitting ball under the eaves of the alley. After flipping it down, she took out another sound-transmitting ball and listened carefully.

Sure enough, after she had just landed, not long after, she heard the three people go and return, and said in a masculine voice, "My lord, there is no one in the room."

"Hmm..." There was hesitation in the thick voice.

"Your Excellency has never missed this plan of playing hard to get, but now..." said a masculine voice.

"Either we have heard it wrong, or this person's resourcefulness is not inferior to mine." The thick voice sighed, "So, it is a pity that he is a talent."

"My lord," said a masculine voice, "if there is such a person, he must have plotted against you by doing this. In this case, we can wait for him to come forward on his own initiative. With the ability of a lord, it is not easy to subdue him. ? Besides, the marching matter needs to be commanded by an adult himself..."

"Hehe..." The thick voice laughed without saying a word, "Forget it, the military is the most important thing, we should also arrange it."

Then it fell silent.

Ruan Qingwu frowned, thinking about what he just heard, could it be...

If this passage is the one that Xu Cheng heard back then, how should we explain what happened later?If this is the memory before the destruction of the ancient canal city, then whose role is he playing in it?

For some reason, Ruan Qingwu just felt that if he didn't complete the memories in the order of the year, then he might be trapped to death in this ghostland.

So the role she plays in this is very important.

After thinking about it, she jumped onto the roof again, and her eyes were still gray, only the alley was still bright.

It seems that we still need to explore the alley.

After thinking about it, Qingwu went back to the alley again.

Different from the closed doors and windows before, the windows and doors of the alley are all open. The strange thing is that even if they are open, the light can’t shine in. The windows and doors are pitch black, and it’s hard to see what’s inside.

Ruan Qingwu carefully looked at it for a while, then took out a torch, lit it and put it into a copper ball. The copper ball has small holes, two layers of inner and outer layers, and the middle is covered with white gauze. When rolling, the inner ball does not move, and the outer one The ball rotates so that while it is rolling around, the light inside will not go out.Ruan Qingwu tested it, and after confirming that there was no problem with the ball, he threw it into the alley.

The copper ball was spinning, the thin light tearing the darkness irregularly, and finally stopped in the middle.

The candles flickered, but the alley was still empty.

Ruan Qingwu thought for a while, when a sound came from the small ball under the eaves, she immediately stepped aside to cover up her breath.

There were only rustling sounds and the sound of stone slabs moving, and then a clear male voice said, "Huh, I was scared to death, I thought I would be discovered." The voice was light and pleasant, with a trace of Playful and coquettish, "It's so dangerous, so dangerous, but fortunately I'm single and weak, and it takes a while to push the stone slab, or I'll definitely fall for that old traitor's trick," he said, stretching his waist, and hitting Yawning lazily, he said to himself lazily, "I didn't expect to get such news after snoozing for a while. If what they said is true, then the eldest lady will be in danger. Well, look. For the sake of keeping Xu Xing in for a few days, let's go and inform. After all, the kindness of a drop of water should be repaid by a spring, and I, Xu Cheng, am not such an ungrateful person."

.....Is this person Xu Cheng?

Ruan Qingwu was very surprised.It turned out that this is how Xu Cheng heard the enemy's strategy, snoozing or something...

The legend is really unbelievable.
