Chapter 918 Guardian?
"Is this?" It's hard, is it?
"Sure enough." The boy's voice came to Bai Ling's ears indifferently, "This is still not a paradise!"
She opened her eyes wide in disbelief, and the shopkeeper in front of her looked inexplicable: "What are you saying about the guest? It's dangerous outside, so it's better for you to go upstairs quickly..."
Yan Sanlang nodded and replied, "Okay", and walked towards the stairs.
But when he was about to reach the shopkeeper, he raised the tip of his sword and stabbed straight at the shopkeeper!
This sword is light and quick.
Bai Ling felt a flash in front of her eyes, and the shopkeeper actually retreated three feet away.
The smile on his face slowly calmed down.
Yan Sanlang stared at him and said, "Time is tight, do you still have time to play tricks with us?" Bai Ling's sand in the bottle will only quiet down in the peach garden. Now they are jumping hard, that is to say-
The shopkeeper shrugged: "In the face of danger, I should try your best."
He stood up straight, looking like he still had a fat and round face, and he was still the same as the squad in the market, but what was different?
Bai Ling asked tentatively: "Are you the one who sets up the illusion?" She had also seen illusions, but she had never heard of them that they could quietly change the environment.
The shopkeeper ignored her and turned to Yan Sanlang and answered the question irrelevantly: "Where is the flaw exposed?"
"moonlight."
When these two words were said, the shopkeeper said "Oh": "I'm lazy."
Not to mention Bai Ling was confused, Qiansui said unhappy: "Hey, what does this mean?"
Yan Sanlang explained to them: "Do you still remember that when we came out of the city lord's mansion, the moonlight and the stars disappeared? It was not until we were in a desperate situation behind us that we saw the full moon again."
"Yes, what's wrong?" The two women almost spoke in unison.
"Without stars or moons, we don't know where we have gone."
Bai Ling Daqi: "Is this possible?"
Yan Sanlang looked at the middle of the street: "When you walk in the city, how can you recognize the way?"
"Street view." Bai Ling naturally answered, and then woke up, "Ah, do you mean that the streets and alleys we left the City Lord's Mansion last night were all fake?"
"Maybe." Yan Sanlang said softly, "The people behind the scenes cannot set the entrance and exit to the Jedi here. But I put things to follow on Nailo and Tu Xinger, and I will definitely chase Tongyue Inn. So the "shopkeeper" in front of me forged an illusion, making us think we have walked back to Tongyue Inn."
Bai Ling could understand it halfway, and asked: "Why can't the Jedi exit be set here?"
"Because Tu Xing'er really rested at Tongyue Inn." Yan Sanlang's eyes flashed slightly, "I just went upstairs to see it. She was not in any guest room. In other words, this is still not Tongyue Inn!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the shopkeeper applauded him softly: "Observe it carefully, okay."
All kinds of sounds outside the door had stopped at some point, leaving only dead silence.
Yan Sanlang didn't care about the outside of the door and just stared at him and said, "Who are you? Or, there are 'you'?"
The man slowly leaned over to the counter: "I am the one who is in charge of Taoyuan."
"You are the 'guardian' mentioned by Lord Wu?"
The man shrugged: "What he can call."
"Where is your name?" Yan Sanlang narrowed his eyes, "Isn't it just called Wang Mingzhi, right?"
The man smiled, his expression was irresistible: "Whatever you call me."
Yan Sanlang walked to the door and pushed open it.
As he expected, the long streets and shops were gone, and there was a wild field full of weeds outside.
His movement of opening the door was abrupt, and he also startled two thrushes in the grass. "How far is this place from Taoyuan?"
"It's a few miles."
Yan Sanlang asked him: "Why are you setting up the illusion of hungry ghosts entering the city for us to see?"
"Because..." Wang Ming sighed, "This is the scene that will appear later, I will just preview it for you."
Bai Ling and Yan Sanlang both understood what this meant: "The Sea God envoy and the Hungry Ghosts invaded Taoyuan? Why didn't they take them out of Taoyuan like they did when dealing with us?"
"I can't." Wang Ming said word by word, "The creatures in the hungry ghost realm must not leave the Taoyuan!"
Yan Sanlang looked at him firmly and asked for a while: "Are you a guardian? Are you guarding the dying realm or the seal of the Hungry Ghost Realm?"
Looking back, Yan Sanlang was also a little surprised. There was a crack in the ground leading to the hungry ghost path near the entrance to the dying realm!
What's going on?
“All.”
Bai Ling's eyes became a little bad: "Why did you send us into a desperate situation?"
"You have also seen that too many hungry ghosts coming across the line will pose a threat to the boundary base." Wang Ming sighed, "I need someone to go in regularly to help me clear the hungry ghosts."
Bai Ling said angrily: "Then will you pass the person in and die?"
He spread his hands: "You all come here with a request, so you might as well regard this as a trial."
Seeing his expression lightly describing, Bai Ling remembered the human bones he saw in a desperate situation. They were all living people. After going through a lot of hardships, they finally approached the legendary dying realm, but were stormed into the desperate situation by the guy in front of him and buried in the ghost's belly!
She almost followed the footsteps of these people.
The little girl was so angry that her chest was undulating. She wanted to say something else, but Yan Sanlang raised his hand to interrupt her: "Does your trial also include the sea god attacking the Hungry Ghost Realm and leading the people to enter the Taoyuan Realm?"
After saying this, Wang Mingzhi's expression was not as calm as before.
"There are exceptions in everything. Those people are evil ghosts. I didn't notice it beforehand, but they killed the Ghost King and gathered to escape." He finally showed a solemn look, "What are you calling them, the Sea God Envoy?"
"Those ghosts of the hidden country, who use the help of human skin to cross the boundary and come to the world. For so many years, they have been persevering in search of..."
Wang Mingzhi's face changed and he suddenly said, "Looking for a dying state."
Yan Sanlang was a little surprised: "Do you know?"
"So those monsters are just hidden remnants?" Wang Mingzhi murmured, "This is a problem."
He walked to the door and slowly closed the door. "One of my responsibilities is to guard the land of hungry ghosts so that things that come out there cannot escape into the human world. Therefore, they may soon rag on the Taoyuan."
Bai Ling couldn't help it: "You just ignore it?"
"I will take action, but I am not able to do anything." Wang Mingzhi smiled bitterly, "You still need to work together. By the way, Lord Wu will also be a big help."
Yan Sanlang suddenly said, "He is also an outsider, why didn't you throw him and his subordinates into a desperate situation?"
"I had this plan, but I found that he was more qualified to be a city lord." Wang Ming waved his hand, "I'm not waiting. If you fight back the hidden and lingering remnants, I can guarantee that you will get what you want. After all, those who come here with Cangwushi have all their wishes to be fulfilled, right?"
