The second story of the ancient sword II

The night is blue, with a waning moon looming, and the rustling sound of decaying grass being ravaged by the night wind, and occasionally an owl flies past the sight and flies away.An icy blue halo descended vertically, transforming into two human figures in an instant.The moment he withdrew his sword finger, the magic circle on the soles of his feet disappeared, and Yi Ze and A Ruan were already in the hall of Xianlinyuan.

Yi Ze lightly cast a spell, and a blue flame rose from his palm, illuminating the surroundings, and he held A Ruan behind him with his other hand.

"Pfft——" Ah Ruan saw a black-clothed Taoist priest frozen in a block of ice as tall as a person, his appearance was very funny, his mouth was wide open, as if shouting something, his legs were striding forward quickly run.

"Don't pay attention to him." Yi turned his head, "It will unfreeze itself in three days."

Yi Ze looked around and found nothing unusual, took out the weeping bead from his bosom, only to find that it was dimly lit again. "Only here will it shine... Mother Concubine, what do you want to tell the child?" Yi Ze looked at the weeping beads in his palm, with an anxious look on his brows.

Only the exterior of Xianlin Garden has been basically completed, and the interior decoration has not yet started.There are no murals on the bare walls, the hollow dome has several vertical and horizontal beams, and the uneven muddy ground under the feet has not yet been paved with floor tiles.

Walking up to Bixi, he saw the broken stele again, and the striking writing on it made Yi Ze burn to the top of his head again.The knuckles holding the hilt of the sword were clenched.

"That's..."The Monument of Linshan King, the Second Son of Tang Baoli Emperor, Slaying Demons and Protecting the Country and Praying for the Country's Merits"?" Ah Ruan leaned down to take a closer look, and immediately understood Yi Ze's anger.

"No, it's not like this." Ah Ruan was also sad in his heart, and stood up to meet the burning anger in Shang Yize's eyes, "Don't be sad."

"Heh..." A forced smile flitted across the corner of Yi Ze's mouth, and he stared at A Ruan for a while.His eyes flicked over her shoulder, and when he saw the broken stele again, he suddenly found that there seemed to be something hidden under the loose soil where the soul urn was dug next to Bixi.Yi quickly squatted down and dug up with his bare hands.

"Yi Ze, I'm here to dig, and your hand is injured." A Ruan pushed Yi Ze's hand, "Although I can't use spiritual power, I can help you dig the soil." Yi Ze finally showed a trace. Smiling, his hands were still digging non-stop, and he looked at Ah Ruan with gratitude.

"Hey, Yi Ze, look!" Ah Ruan's fair fingers were gradually blackened by the mud, revealing stones similar to square bricks.

Yi took out his sword and pried it carefully.The force was weak, and the stone only loosened and closed again.

He took a few steps back, raised his sword and cast a spell, a blue light poured into it, and the stone slowly moved aside, revealing a narrow entrance leading to the ground.Looking down from the top, it is dark and the situation is not very clear.

He took out the weeping bead in his bosom again, it was much clearer than before, Yi Ze's heart was excited all of a sudden, and he couldn't wait to go down.But he still tried his best to calm down, "I can go down alone, and Ah Ruan will obediently wait for me up there."

"No, there is something we have to face together, unless...unless..." Ah Ruan pouted. "Unless you hate me." Yi Ze couldn't hold back Ah Ruan and had to take her down with her.

The moment they went down, a vague smile crossed the corner of the frozen Taoist priest's mouth...

This is a stair passage from top to bottom. The stone steps are narrow and steep. The front is dark and deep, and the cold atmosphere is all around.Only their footsteps and breathing remained in the passage.The darkness soon overwhelmed his sight, and he could only move forward step by step.Yi added some spiritual power to slightly intensify the unclear blue flame in his palm, and the light could just illuminate a small area under their feet.Just like that, Ari walked around, sniffing back and forth from time to time, while Yi walked ahead vigilantly, holding Aruan's hand tightly as if holding a treasure.

"Uh..." A sudden headache hit, Yi stopped and tapped his forehead with his cold hand.

"What's the matter?" Ruan was nervous for a while, and worriedly tugged on La Yize's sleeve, "Well, if you don't feel well, we'll go up quickly. Ah Ruan can come back with Yize tomorrow."

"It's okay... just a little headache, presumably caused by the collision of energy and blood from being too angry just now." Yi Ze's voice was full of relief.

The long stone steps seem to extend down endlessly, the more you go down, the thicker the cold atmosphere, and the surrounding is as quiet as if you are deaf.The Liuguang Juechen on Ah Ruan's feet was a little thinner, and the unevenness on the bluestone slab was painful on the soles of his feet.I thought in my heart, if I can still use my spiritual power, then it is no problem to run as long as possible.It was only after becoming like a mortal that I realized how hard Yi Ze, Xiao Yezi and the others had worked in the battle.After running for a day, the soreness in the soles of her feet made her want to bend down and squat down to rub her feet.As soon as he had this thought, he realized that Yi Ze's hands seemed to be clenched less tightly, and the blue flame that guided them forward weakened instantly and disappeared into the endless darkness.Before he had time to react, he felt that Yi Ze's body was leaning heavily on his body.The rapid breathing sprinkled on his face and neck.

His body seemed to have no strength, all the weight was on Ruan's body.The sudden weight caused Ah Ruan to tilt backwards, staggering and nearly falling down with Yi Ze.She quickly helped him sit down on the spot.

"Yi Ze, Yi Ze..." Ah Ruan held Yi Ze's face and called his name.

Yi just snorted, then stopped talking.Ahri, who was following on the left and right, was also restless at the moment, whining and warning, with her little paws hooking on Ah Ruan's skirt, unwilling to take another step down.

"What should I do?" Ah Ruan was restless in his heart, and he sat helplessly on the cold stone steps holding Yi in the dark.She lowered her head and pressed her face against his cheek, it was so cold that there was almost no temperature.I can't stay here all the time, it's cold and dark, and I can't bear the rules no matter whether I'm up or down.Distraught, she raised her right hand and held her breath, only to see a flower-shaped green magic circle blooming in her palm, and the surrounding light gradually became stronger.She wants to open up her spiritual power channel and release her spiritual power to heal Yi Ze.

With a bang, the Lingguang Xuanri Sword slipped from Yi Ze's sword case and fell to the ground, making a crisp sound.

Hearing the voice, Yi Ze's lips moved, his eyes opened slightly, and suddenly he saw the green light in Ah Ruan's hand, and he was so shocked that he quickly held her hand with all his strength!

"No, don't... don't waste..." There was difficulty in the words.

"Yi Ze, are you awake?" Ah Ruan held Yi Ze in his arms, and touched his cheek with his hands, "Is it uncomfortable?"

"You...don't feel uncomfortable? At first, the headache felt like it was about to burst, and then the whole body was soft and sore, and I couldn't control my strength..."

"I, I didn't feel anything, I'm fine." Ah Ruan suddenly felt something fluffy and soft rubbing against him at his feet, "By the way, Ari seems to be very uncomfortable. "

"You can't give up halfway..." Yi resisted the pain and sat up straight, "This kind of pain doesn't last forever, it seems to be better. I will draw some spiritual power for you. If there is any danger later, if I come again Like just now, Ah Ruan tried to leave quickly and tried his best to protect himself."

"How can I leave Yi alone, I don't just care about myself, no..." Ah Ruan shook his head and refused to take over.

"Don't make trouble, be obedient, even if it's not for self-protection, then, can it be considered as protecting me?" Yi Ze took Ah Ruan's hand and aligned the palms.Pull out the blue halo from your body and send it in.

"I'm better, let's go on." Yi Ze struggled to stand up, and then created a ghostly fire, illuminating the surroundings.The body was still shaking violently.

The long stone steps were finally coming to an end, but the light became brighter and brighter.At the bottom of the stone steps is a slightly longer corridor, and at the end of the corridor is a stone room without a door.As soon as they stepped into the corridor, golden light spots flew towards them like debris.The closer you get, the denser the golden light spots become, densely stubble like arrows.

"Not good! Ruan quickly hide behind me." Yi Ze forced himself to pull out the Lingguang Black Sun Sword and quickly swung it to block those tiny golden arrows. "This is the extremely powerful soul-absorbing magic circle of the Taoist school. No wonder it felt so uncomfortable just now..." Yi Ze pressed his temple, quickly turned his sword fingers, and drew a circle with the sword in his other hand to encircle Ah Ruan and Ah Li. Inside, silently recite the soul-fixing mantra, "In this way, it will reduce the damage of this magic circle to people."

"Soul-absorbing magic circle?" Ah Ruan silently read these words, with a plan in mind.

"I'll protect you!" Ah Ruan suddenly jumped in front of Yi Ze, and grabbed the sword from his hand.

"You... nonsense!" Yi Ze was very annoyed, "In such a situation, you still have to..."

"I want to make more trouble, don't I?" Ah Ruan said playfully, "Give it to me, listen to me, never use spiritual power indiscriminately!"

Yi saw the confidence in Ah Ruan's eyes, and handed the sword into her hand.Sure enough, under A Ruan's protection, those golden sharp arrows didn't hurt them at all.

It was getting closer and closer, and the golden big magic circle had completely appeared in front of them.It spun quickly like a wide roulette, covered with golden charms.The dazzling golden glow dazzles people.Because Yi Ze still felt uncomfortable because he had recited the soul-fixing mantra before, he could barely get close.

"That's..." Yi Ze's voice suddenly became trembling, with a sad look on his face, "Pink and white plum blossoms...the green iron dragon's blessing and longevity wishful adornment..."

Ah Ruan looked into the magic circle, and saw a hollow blue iron Longsheng Fushou Ruyi wearing a white tassel hanging in the center of the rapidly rotating golden roulette.On the upper part of the jade pendant were two pink-white plum blossom knots, and the same pink-white pendants were tied to the bottom, floating in the formation with the fluctuation of mana.A Ruan closed his eyes and tried to feel the power of the magic circle with his heart. He was terrified. This kind of magic circle would not only absorb the souls of people, but also imprison the souls of dead people in it!And the jade pendant in the magic circle should have some residual soul of someone!Not daring to think about it any further, she opened her eyes suddenly and saw Yi Ze leaning forward a few steps muttering, stretching out his hand to grab the jade pendant in the magic circle!

"Don't!" Ah Ruan rushed forward, spreading his arms and fiercely blocking Yi Ze's front, "This magic circle is too powerful, Yi Ze can't enter!"

Yi Ze's eyes were red, and he grabbed Ah Ruan's shoulder with all his strength, twisting his rough fingers so hard that it hurt, "No, if I don't go, I will regret it forever!"

"I'll go!" Ah Ruan didn't wait for Yi to react, and he flashed like a bird, and jumped into the magic circle.

The author has something to say:

Ah Ruan is the one who knows Yi Ze best!
