See you in the world

Chapter 400 Waiting for you at last

The old man with innate cultivation has been here for decades. Judging from the aging population of the 'village', most of the people are probably from the same group...

Thoughts flickered, Yun Jingwei said thoughtfully: "Old man, how evil the illusion outside is, of course I know it all the way. You just said that people occasionally come here over the years. People who come here They must not be reconciled to being trapped here, they must have tried to leave, so how can we be sure that those who entered the illusion and tried to leave died inside instead of leaving?"

This is a place worth scrutinizing.

I can't be more clear about the cloudscape of the illusion. Being in it, the six senses are distorted, and the naked eye can't see the reality. Indeed, there are many bones left by the dead in the illusion, but how does this old man confirm those who want to leave? Is it dead inside, not gone?

He personally saw those who entered the illusion and wanted to leave died in it?

It doesn't make sense logically!
While talking, Yun Jing also looked at the 'village' in the center of the deep illusion without any trace, and gradually discovered some unusual places.

Hearing Yun Jing's question, the old man's eyes flashed, and he smiled and said, "Young man, you are very smart, but what I want to say is that sometimes being too smart is not a good thing..."

Speaking of this, the old man paused for a moment, and continued: "Since you are so smart, I will not go around with you anymore. In fact, you shouldn't be so smart. Let me tell you this. Over the years, people who came here by chance People, who is willing to be trapped here all their lives, all want to enter the illusion and go back to the outside world, but such people are all dead, killed by 'us'!"

"You are so smart, you must be thinking, the illusion is so weird, the six senses are distorted, and people who want to leave, as long as they enter the illusion, how can we kill them, after all, we are also affected by the illusion..."

"Because you have lived here long enough, after decades, you can always figure out some of the surrounding illusions, so those who want to leave, even if they enter the illusion, they will not be able to escape your pursuit, but because you are familiar with the illusion , it is easier for you to kill in the illusion, am I right?" Yun Jing interrupted the other party.

At this time, what Yunjing thought was not about interrupting the old man's politeness, but his words, let Yunjing know that 'they', including this old man, don't want people to leave!

Slightly stunned, the old man smiled and said: "That's right, that's exactly how it is. We've been here for decades, and after decades, we don't know anything about the illusion around us. We don't want people to leave, and they can't leave forever! "

"...Young man, you are very smart, but it's a pity. Originally, you should know these things after living here for a while, but who made you so smart? It's good to know it in advance, so you don't have to worry about it later. Live here with peace of mind, don't think about leaving, you will die, we don't allow latecomers like you to leave, at least leave before we allow!"

"You can only leave with your permission, otherwise you will kill those who want to leave, right?" Yun Jing asked, not paying too much attention to the other party's threats and warnings, and he couldn't keep them if he wanted to leave.

They can't stop them just by flying away!

At the same time, Yunjing became more and more curious about these people, why didn't they let them leave?But it's not the absolute kind, you need their permission to leave.

Nodding his head, the old man said calmly: "Yes, we can only leave with permission, otherwise we will all die. This cannot be changed. Even if 'we' want to leave, we will die, even if we are the last one!"

"To tell you the truth, we came here decades ago, with a total of nearly a thousand people. Over the past few decades, some people can't help but want to leave. Those people are all dead, because we killed each other!"

There is something wrong with your designation, don't let people leave, kill anyone who wants to leave, even if it is your own...

"Why?" Yunjing asked puzzled.

The old man's eyes were fixed, and he said seriously: "Secret!"

"???" Yunjing didn't understand.

Looking at Yunjing who was stunned and puzzled, the old man smiled and said: "Young man, it's a secret, it's better not to know what you shouldn't know, it's not good for you, and it will lead to death, next, follow me Let's go, go to the village and settle down, and live here with peace of mind in the future, don't think too much, life is still long, I warn you again, don't even think about leaving, you will die!"

The old man has a kind face and kind eyes, just like the old man next door, but the words he speaks contain an unquestionable taste, and it makes people feel cold in the bottom of their hearts.

"Since the old man said that the reason why people who come here are not allowed to leave is confidential, and it is better for me not to know, I will not ask, so what I want to know is when will you allow them to leave? Moreover, when you allow How can we ensure that we can leave smoothly?" Yunjing continued to ask after following the old man's pace.

The footsteps paused, and the old man said in a complicated tone: "I don't know, we don't know when we will be allowed to leave, and we don't know how to leave."

I don't know anything, I'm also living in confusion...

With a flickering thought in his mind, Yun Jing suddenly asked, "Old man, because of your low status, you can't reveal too much to me, right?"

"That's right, young man, you're really smart, but it's a pity, I'm afraid you'll never be able to return to the outside world when you come here, so let's live here well, there are some girls in the 'village' nowadays, with your looks, they want to please you It is not difficult for a daughter-in-law to settle down here," the old man sighed.

From his words, Yun Jing analyzed that 'they' probably didn't kill innocent people indiscriminately, and they had their own reasons for not letting people leave.

Gradually, the two approached the village head one after the other. Someone had already spotted Yun Jing, a new outsider, and was looking at him curiously from a distance, but he didn't pay much attention. A few children watched from a distance, but no one took Yunjing seriously.

After thinking for a while, Yun Jing continued to ask the old man who led the way: "Old man, you don't let people leave because of a so-called secret, but your identity does not allow you to reveal too much to me, so who should I know more about?" How much? After all, according to what you said, whether I can leave or not requires your permission. I have to find out the truth. It’s not a problem to be "imprisoned" here by you in such a muddled way, right?"

"That's right, come with me. I'll take you to see the 'village head'. Only he can make a decision. Besides, you will live here in the future. You have to set aside a piece of land to support yourself. It needs to be arranged by the 'village head', and it is necessary to take you to meet him." The old man nodded and said, then took Yunjing to the middle of the village.

When passing by a simple courtyard, a strong man chopping firewood put down his axe, grinned at Yunjing and said, "Hey, such a good-looking young man came here this year, that young man, live a good life when he comes. , Don’t even think about leaving, don’t talk about whether you have the luck to return to the outside world after entering the illusion. They are all dead, some were killed by them, and some were killed by the beasts inside after entering the illusion. I can’t go back, and live with peace of mind. Anyway, I have accepted my fate. Unfortunately, there are too few women here. I haven't found a wife so far, and now I see a man with good features, you come here, you look so good-looking, it's a bit dangerous, hehe..."

"Uncle, you also entered here by mistake?" Yun Jing looked curiously at the other party and spoke.

This place is isolated from the world, there are more men than women, and some people look at themselves with 'unkind' eyes... Damn, Yunjing's chrysanthemum tightened.

Such an environment is really easy to breed metamorphosis.

"No, I have been here for more than ten years. In the past, I was known as the Little Overlord of Xieyang City in the outside world. But after so many years, I have been forgotten by the world. Now I don't think about anything, I just want to come This woman sees that I am pleasing to the eye and marry me, or I will have a chance to try to leave after all those old guys are dead," the strong man said with a grin.

Then Yun Jing wanted to say something to him, but the other party ignored him, chopping firewood with red eyes, as if facing an enemy, gnashing his teeth in an extremely ferocious manner.

This person has mental problems.

Thinking about it, too, being trapped here for more than ten years, there will always be only such a small world, and it is not easy for people not to be crazy.

Perhaps because of that strong man, the old man who brought Yunjing back to the village reminded: "Young man, you will live here in the future. I have to remind you of a few people. Don't provoke them if you have nothing to do. They have bad tempers. Well, the brawny man just now is barely one, and there is also a fisherman by the small river over there. Although he is honest and simple, he is a ruthless person. He was bullied because of his sister in the outside world. He even killed other people's family more than 100 times. At the mouth, I was hunted down and broke into a fantasy world by chance, now at the late stage of congenital, it is a headache to go crazy, and over there, in the west corner, there lives a woman, who is the daughter of the head of the outside Tyrannical Sword Sect, The cultivation base is also in the late innate stage. Because there are more men than women in this place, she sees that any man seems to have bad intentions towards her, and she will become her target if she gets closer to ten steps. She has been here for almost ten years. There are no less than twenty people in her hands, and the one who turned the soil over there, used to be a lust, but now there are not many women here, and he doesn't even let men off, you have to be careful not to be taken advantage of at night, and ...In short, many people here are not normal, so don't provoke them, anyway, no matter what these people are, as long as they don't want to leave, we won't care."

The old man who led the way counted more than ten noteworthy people in succession. After listening, Yun Jing said that this place is really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.

Those who came here, except for the group of old people who lead the way, all of them have some background and skills. Think about it, people without skills can't survive through the illusion and come here by chance.

However, under Yunjing's observation, except for those few children, the people here more or less have some psychological problems. After all, being trapped in this square inch, it's no wonder that they have no psychological problems after a long time.

"Before the old people who led the way came here decades ago, there were people living here, but not many. After so many years, almost all the 'indigenous' who used to be dead, only one or two old people are still alive. Now The people who are in charge here are the old people who lead the way. They will not leave here because of some kind of secret, and they will not allow other people to leave here. Therefore, as long as the people here do not want to leave, they will not be too restrictive. , Then why are they unwilling to leave and not allowing others to leave?The answer will hopefully be revealed soon...'

With this in mind, Yunjing was led by the old man to the place where the 'village head' lived.

This is a small farmyard, and an old man is weaving a bamboo basket at a leisurely pace.

The 'Village Chief' looked seven or 80 years old, and he was in good spirits. He was one of the strong men in the true mood that Yunjing felt before. He didn't look like a strong man at that level, but looked like an old farmer.

"Another person is here?" the 'Village Chief' said without raising his head after the two of Yunjing arrived.

The old man who led the way said: "Well, my lord, there is a newcomer here, how do you think about it?"

"Do I still need to talk about this kind of thing? As usual, find a place for him to settle down, draw a plot of land, and make the rules clear. How many times have I said, don't bother me with such trivial matters, what are you guys doing?" I just can't remember," said the 'Village Chief', still weaving a bamboo basket.

The old man who led the way smiled, with an expression of knowing the result, but still said: "My lord, this young man wants to know more and why he is not allowed to leave. Look...?"

"It's a matter of confidentiality, don't you understand the rules? As long as he doesn't try to leave, it doesn't matter," the village head said displeased, without any thought of explaining the reason to Yunjing.

The old man who led the way was not surprised, he looked at Yun Jing and said, "Young man, let's go, I will find a place for you to settle down, and live a good life in the future, don't think about those who have nothing."

However, Yun Jing didn't leave, looked at the 'Village Chief' and said, "You guys are soldiers from Da Li, am I right?"

As soon as he said this, the old man who turned around and was about to lead the way paused, staring at Yun Jing imposingly, his eyes revealing nervous expectation and vigilance.

The 'village head' also stopped weaving baskets, looked up at Yunjing, stared at him firmly, and said word by word: "Who are you!"

When he was speaking, the aura of true artistic conception erupted, like a wild beast awakened, facing this terrifying aura, Yunjing's heart tightened, and he was almost out of breath.

Yun Jing had a hunch that if his answer dissatisfied the other party, the other party would definitely kill him without hesitation!
It is not difficult for Yunjing to know their identities. This 'village' is too primitive and there are not many iron objects, but here, many elderly people have such cold weapons as armor, knives and guns in their homes. It has become a bottom of the box stuff, but it is still well maintained.

They would rather use primitive tools than melt these things into farm tools.

Especially put together with the sword, gun and armor, there is also an identity token representing the soldiers of the Dali Dynasty!

'Town Border Army', an army that has disappeared but has not yet withdrawn its designation, they actually appeared here!

Yunjing saw this army before when he was reading a book, but the records are only a few words. This is a veteran of hundreds of battles. He is extremely powerful. He guards the border and fights constantly all the year round. However, it suddenly disappeared decades ago, and now it reappears. .

Thinking about the 'something' that Pei Mo of the Dajiang Dynasty led people to look for, Yunjing has almost figured out many things at the moment, and they are likely to be related to the friction between the Dajiang Dynasty and the Dali Dynasty decades ago. What Pei Mo was looking for was in their hands...

No, it's not possible, but it's really there, Yunjing has 'seen' it!

"Just one glance", Yun Jing almost vomited blood when he saw that thing, and dared not look any more.

In this way, they appeared here, but did not let anyone leave. Yunjing understood that they were guarding that thing for decades, not allowing anyone to leave, in order to prevent the news of that thing from spreading .

For this reason, they spared no effort to trap themselves here.

There used to be a lot of them, and there must have been many people who were unwilling to be trapped here forever for an order. Some wanted to leave, but some killed those who wanted to leave in order to protect the secret. What is left here now is a Help the veterans who have always insisted on guarding the order!

For an order, for a mission, they have stuck here for decades. How have they lived these decades?They could not see hope or future, but they persevered without complaint or regret.

Veterans don't die, only for the mission of home and country on their shoulders!

They are worthy of respect from the heart.

'The thing they are guarding is actually a book left by a master of the mythical realm. The book actually contains the spirit and spirit of a master of the mythical realm. I don't even have the qualification to take a look at the cover. The headache is splitting, like a scorching sun erupting in front of my eyes...'

At the beginning, Yunjing saw the words left by Chen Master in the interior of Chongshou Mountain, and also stayed with Liu Neng and Master Liu for a while, so Yunjing is no stranger to the atmosphere of the mythical realm.

'Seeing' the things guarded by the border guards, Yun Jing recognized at a glance that they were left by the masters of mythology.

Decades ago, Dali and Dajiang almost triggered a national war, but nothing happened afterwards. Yunjing almost understood the reason. It was definitely because of that thing. It was just that that thing disappeared here together with these town border troops, so it happened. Nothing.

Taking a deep breath, Yunjing bowed his hands to the 'village head' in front of him and saluted: "Younger Dali Dynasty, Yunjing, from Xiaoxi Village, Niujiao Town, Xinlin County, Wangjiang County, Jiangzhou, met senior."

At the bottom of the box at the 'Village Chief''s house, his weapons and armor tokens are stored, and he is Yang Kaishan, the general of the town's frontier army.

He led the town border army to guard that thing here for decades, in order to prevent the news from leaking, he did not hesitate to kill everyone who wanted to leave!

Although he knew the other party's identity, Yun Jing couldn't explain how he knew it, and only said his own identity information.

"You are a person from my great distance, how do you know our identity? This is a secret, if you don't know the answer, you will die!" Yang Kaishan slowly got up and looked at Yunjing and said coldly.

His expression was incomparably cold, his air mechanism had locked onto Yunjing, he was not joking, if Yunjing's answer dissatisfied him, he would really kill Yunjing.

These towns, because of their mission, have been silently guarding that thing here. They don't mind if outsiders come here, but they can't leave. As long as their identities are not revealed, they don't mind coexisting with other people, but Yun Jing knew their identities, but didn't make it clear. In order to prevent the news from leaking, he had to get rid of them!
Did not doubt the other party's words.

But for these people who spend their whole lives guarding the mission of their homeland, Yun Jing really doesn't want to say anything to deceive them.

So he said: "The younger generation has read some books, the tutor is now serving in the army, and the younger generation has also experienced in the army, so he is very familiar with the military style. Although you have just come here, you can see the military style from your actions. That's why this junior has guessed that you are the officers and soldiers of Dali."

"It's not enough. We have been here for decades, and our identities are kept secret. No one knows our identities except 'us', not even the descendants of someone who settled here. Now that you know us Because of your identity, we can't keep you just because you are a faraway person!" Yang Kaishan looked at Yunjing and said coldly.

At this moment, the place has been sealed off, the sound cannot pass through the yard, and around the yard, one after another 'old people' appear, the atmosphere is extremely chilling.

Yun Jing understands their murderous intentions, they have a mission on their shoulders and cannot tolerate any mistakes, even though decades have passed!
I am very dangerous now, it can be said that I am hovering on the edge of life and death. Of course, whether they can kill me is another matter.

Yun Jing didn't want to conflict with these respectable people, after thinking about it, he took out something from his bosom and showed it to Yang Kaishan and the others.

What was taken out was the jade pendant that the eldest princess had given to Yun Jing. In many cases, this jade pendant could represent Her Royal Highness the eldest princess.

After taking out the jade pendant, Yun Jing said: "This is the jade pendant that Princess Dali carries with her, can you reassure everyone?"

When the jade pendant was taken out, everyone including Yang Kaishan was shocked.

To be honest, Yun Jing felt a little uneasy at this moment, after all, the eldest princess is not very old, do they recognize this jade pendant?

But no matter what, this jade pendant was produced by the royal family after all, and it carried the unique imprint of the royal family of the Dali Dynasty. If this thing doesn't work well, Yun Jing can only think of another way.

Looking at the jade pendant in Yunjing's hand, Yang Kaishan trembled all over, then took a deep breath and said, "I've offended you."

As he spoke, he waved from the air, and the jade pendant fell into his hand, and he became more careful.

After a while, Yang Kaishan knelt down on one knee, held up the jade pendant and said in a deep voice: "The last general, Yang Kaishan, see His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess."

"See Your Highness the Eldest Princess" The other old people around also knelt down one after another, trembling with excitement.

What they kneeled was not Yunjing, but the eldest princess.

As a result, Yun Jing was slightly relieved, even though decades passed, they were still loyal to the Dali Dynasty, but Yun Jing didn't know how Yang Kaishan could tell the authenticity of the jade pendant.

Yang Kaishan has the cultivation base of true artistic conception, and his senses are keen. Perhaps he sensed the doubts in Yunjing's heart. He stood up and said, "45 years ago, before I came here, at the beginning of that year, I went to Beijing to report on my work. On the side of the young eldest princess, I have seen this jade pendant before. At that time, the eldest princess had already worshiped under the door of a master.

As he spoke, he politely returned the jade pendant to Yunjing, and then said with a choked voice: "Finally, it's time for you, the imperial court has not forgotten us"

For a moment, Yang Kaishan burst into tears, and the eyes of other 'old people' around him were also red.

With this situation, Yunjing felt uncomfortable. They are actually a group of forgotten people...
