Chapter four hundred and ninety-ninth central area
This black long sword actually seemed to be Xiang Yu's one.
I was slightly stunned, looked at Duan Lei, and said, "It seems that your knife is not yours, right?"
Duan Lei didn't care and just replied lightly: "Yes, this is not mine. A few days ago, I met a friend. We didn't know each other without fighting. After he learned about my actions today, he just borrowed this knife to me for a while."
Xiang Yu actually lent his knife to Duan Lei?
I was puzzled, why have I never heard Xiang Yu mention this matter?
Duan Lei looked fine and ignored my doubts. He leaned over and checked the people. He was sure that they were all dead. Then he wanted to walk forward.
I said to him: "Slowly, Duan Lei, the purpose of our trip is not to find the Lord Fuyuanzhai to fight to the death, because it is tantamount to sending death. We just want to destroy his plan without disturbing him, and at the same time, to rescue a girl who was imprisoned and detained by them."
Duan Lei shrugged and said, "Of course I'm not stupid enough to die. I've heard before that an altar has been built here. The Lord of Fuyuanzhai will cast spells on it. The purpose of my coming here is to destroy the altar."
"Altar?" A trace of obscenity flashed across my mind. The function of the altar is naturally to sacrifice, and sacrifices usually require sacrifices. Could it be that they captured Xin Ya for...
"Where is the altar?" I asked in a deep voice, Duan Lei shook his head: "I don't know, but in that person's memory just now, the place guarded by the ninety-nine people in the central city is likely to be the place where the altar is."
Yi Sheng said: "But isn't there a place where Lord Fuyuanzhai is stationed? If he stays at the altar, then will we still die when we go?"
Duan Lei said: "If you are afraid of death, don't go. The news I received said that the Lord of Fuyuanzhai will be preparing to cast spells these two days, so he should not care about too much, otherwise you think that if you kill someone so close to him, how could he not know?"
Yi Sheng's face changed slightly. He stared at Duan Lei, as if he was about to get angry, but he still held it back and said coldly: "Okay, no matter how you got the news, I will believe you half of it, but if you dare to lie to us, I will definitely send you to hell as soon as possible."
Duan Lei snorted: "Believe it or not, I will go there myself if you don't go anyway."
After saying that, he turned around and walked forward without looking at us again.
In fact, I have always been a little confused. Duan Lei's skills are increasing now, and he has learned a lot of inside information. It is hard to say whether he was deliberately sent by the Golden Knife Sect to attract us to the trap.
But I think that with the strength of Master Fuyuanzhai and the current situation of the army, I would not have been so troublesome. I also took the lives of a few disciples of the Golden Sword Sect to lead us to the trap, because I should not have any threat in the eyes of Master Fuyuanzhai.
So, why?
I couldn't figure it out and didn't have time to think about it. Seeing Duan Lei walking forward, I frowned and looked at Yi Sheng again. He nodded slightly and whispered: "Don't worry about him, just go forward. Anyway, for both of us, even if the situation is wrong, it's okay to escape unstoppable. Moreover, the Master Fuyuanzhai had indeed explained before that no one was allowed to disturb him, so Duan Lei's words just now should be partly true."
I waved my hand and said, "Then let's go. Anyway, this road must also go forward. For us, there is no way back now."
Yi Sheng's eyes narrowed and he said, "Yes, this is a road of no return. There must be an end. Either we die or he dies."
I suddenly felt something strange, looked at Yi Sheng and said, "Why do you have such a great hatred for Fuyuanzhai?"
He shrugged, made an indifferent expression, but said to me with a smile: "Do you know why my name is Yisheng?"
I shook my head and said I didn't know. He took a deep breath and said, "When this matter is over, you will understand. Don't think so much, let's go."
I didn't say anything, just smiled at him and walked forward together. I knew that he must have a secret hidden in his heart, just like me, but there was no need to ask too much at this moment. If we win in the end, then there would naturally be plenty of time and opportunity to say it. If we lose, then everything we say is nonsense.
Because by then everything has changed. I am not me, he is not him, what is victory or defeat, what is heaven, what is justice and justice, all obsession and persistence will turn into an invisible eternal nothingness.
So, we must win!
I suddenly understood the meaning of Yi Sheng's name, and I couldn't help but subconsciously clenched my fists and chased forward with big strides.
We have killed eight disciples from the Golden Sword Sect here, but there is still no movement around us, as if these eight people have disappeared silently in the darkness. The sound of shouting, golden light that has swept into the air, and the screams of the heads falling to the ground, as if they have been obscured by this darkness.
It’s just that the colorful halos that occasionally flashed across the sky shone mottled the earth, as if reminding us that this is not an ordinary night, and what we have to face next will be an endless battle.
"Look, there are a few sky lights in front of you, so it should be there."
I pointed to the front and said, and saw a few towering flagpoles there, with bright lanterns hanging on them, which looked like a few sky lanterns hanging there. When I counted them, they happened to be eight lanterns.
Yi Sheng also looked up and nodded, "Yes, there seems to be a platform in front of him, but I can't see it clearly. I'll see this. You guys wait here first, I'll go and take a look. If it's easy to start, we will act. If the defense is too tight, we will withdraw."
Duan Lei said: "It's OK to take a look, but no matter what, I have to do it. Anyway, I've picked up my life. If you are afraid, please withdraw first, I'll do it."
Yi Sheng frowned and looked at him. Just as I was about to speak, I said, "Stop fighting, how can you cooperate like this? Everyone has their own opinions. Argument is more troublesome than fighting. This way, don't go either of you. I'll go by myself. Duan Lei, please watch here and don't disturb the patrolling Golden Knife disciples. Yi Sheng, you'd better get invisible and ambush secretly, leave us a way out, don't rush over together, be taken away by a bunch of people, and don't even have a chance to escape."
They both stopped talking, and Yi Sheng nodded in agreement, so I cast an invisible talisman on myself and walked in quietly.
The previous section of the road was not used for invisibility. It was because I was afraid that the power fluctuations would be discovered by the Lord of Fuyuanzhai. Now, I learned that he was busy and probably had no time to take care of it. Naturally, I had to use invisibility to approach quietly.
As mentioned earlier, this place is divided into eight areas, each with eight disciples of the Golden Sword Sect patrol. We had just cleared one area and went straight to the center from there. At this time, in front of me was a flat area with open terrain, with almost clearing the grass and trees. There were only a few scattered weeds on the ground, and a few low shrubs. The eight sky lanterns were in the center of the front.
I held my breath and moved forward carefully. Soon I could see many people walking in front of me. There was no doubt that it was the ninety-nine disciples of the Golden Sword Sect. They surrounded the entire central area ahead, or protected it like an iron bucket. Not to mention me, even if there was a fly to fly in, it would be even more difficult.
But my invisible talisman at this time had a surprisingly good effect. Although there was no cover around me, I was basically walking forward with a swagger. None of the disciples noticed me, but they just arranged into a strange formation, constantly changing the formation shape.
In the center, there is indeed a tall platform, about three meters high and dozens of meters in radius. It is made of thick logs, with eight tall flagpoles standing on it and lanterns hanging. Not far behind the platform, there are four black dome tents, which are quiet inside, and I don’t know who is inside.
I felt aroused in my heart and thought to myself that if we calculated according to common sense, one should be from the owner of Fuyuanzhai, one from Liu Wuyan, one from Grandma She, and the other, would Xin Ya be imprisoned inside?
I walked around the disciples of the Golden Knife Sect and tiptoed to one side of the four tents. I wanted to go in and explore, but I was in trouble.
These four tents are exactly the same, and there is no doubt that I only have one chance to find Xin Ya. This opportunity is only one-quarter possible, and I can’t be wrong, I must not be wrong, otherwise, no matter who I encounter, the consequences will be unimaginable!
