One person, one sword, I have guarded the lonely city for 70 years

Chapter 166 The Second Crossing

In the long river of time, Song Yun could only browse the blurred scenes, and wanted to observe in depth, but was blocked by an invisible barrier.

"It seems that with my current state, I can't reach the point of 'knowing the past'."

However, because of his personal experience in the siege of Anxi by several countries in the northwest, many scenes became clear.

Song Yun started to replay, studying the details of the war to see if there was anything missing.

The heavenly demon that escaped seemed to have escaped to Bai Xiang's body in the end.

Fifty years later, Bai Xiang was among the eleven venerables who besieged and killed Song Yun.

Similarly, the Nine Fire Flame Dragon came to support and blocked the escape route, Bai Xiang and other venerables were all shot to death, the history is surprisingly similar.

And the demon disappeared.

But it doesn't matter, this Heavenly Demon has been completely locked, and Song Yun will be able to find it immediately if it appears in the future, even outside Anxi City.

Even, when Song Yun became stronger, he could actively search for and kill it.

His gaze shifted and landed on Jiuhuo Yanlong again.

"As the avatar, the Nine Fire Flame Dragon can still maintain its full power for 50 years, which means that King Tang Jing may not be completely dead. He must have listened to my suggestion and prepared a means of resurrection."

"But where is this means?"

Song Yun thought for a moment, then turned over his [Void Storage Box].

There is also a big box inside, which was taken out by Jiuhuo Yanlong from the royal tomb and given to him directly.

There are some utensils that symbolize the status of the royal family, and there is nothing unusual.

The only thing that can hide information is the practice notebook.

Song Yun looked again at the handwritten notes written by King Tang Jing.

After scrutinizing every word and researching for a long time, I finally discovered the mystery hidden in it.

Some of them seemed to be nonsense, Song Yun originally thought that these were practice notes written casually, and it was normal that they were not concise enough.

Now he sees the way.

These "nonsense" are clearly a metaphor for the siege of Anxi by many countries in the northwest.

After some more reasoning, he slowly deciphered the real message left by King Tang Jing:

It turned out that King Tang Jing modified the "Soul Separation Technique" before retreating into the royal tomb, permanently separated a remnant soul, sealed it in secret, and hid a lot of treasures and inheritances along the way.

Fearing that the Nine Fire Flame Dragon would be controlled by the Heavenly Demon in the future, King Tang Jing directly erased its memory.

Therefore, Jiuhuoyanlong only knew that he had to hand over the notes to "Song Qing", but he didn't know that the key to resurrection was hidden in it.

The place where the remnant soul is sealed is not in the royal tomb, but in a small city north of Chang'an.

Fifty years later, Jing Jun broke through Chang'an, and this place has been controlled by Jing Guo, but this secret has not been revealed.

"By reviving King Tang Jing, it will be a great help to fight against the demons and ghosts, which is not bad."

There will be another card in the future, but Song Yun doesn't plan to use it now.

The timing wasn't right.

Five years ago, when I was still in the early days of a martial sage, and no one provoked me, eleven venerables came to Anxi to kill them, and there was a rare "blood sacrifice to heavenly tribulation", forming a sure-to-kill situation.

This means that the Heavenly Demon and Heavenly Ghost's control over the human world has almost reached its peak.

The "disobedient" human race powerhouse can no longer rise, and will be strangled in advance halfway, and it is impossible to have a person like King Tang Jing who almost unified the world.

Chaos and death will become the unalterable state, which will continue until the life force of the world is exhausted.

According to the prediction of the spirit of heaven and earth, in less than 70 years, this world will completely collapse and be annihilated.

The past, present, and future vanish together, and there is no chance of recovery.

Therefore, Song Yun must be strong enough to return to the present and face all the demons and ghosts.

Before that, he had to stay in Anxi in the past, accumulate strength, and prepare one hole after another.

Song Yun took a deep breath, and slowly stroked the bronze long sword in his hand, "Come again!"

He stepped into the long river of time again, feeling the flowing water overflowing his body.

The light and shadow are confused, the sound of water is noisy, everything becomes blurred, and then gradually becomes clear...

130 years ago, a century of troubled times had just begun.

This is No. 20 years after the fall of the Great Xia Dynasty, the emperor has long since died, and the Yangshen and Wu Dao Renxian have become immortal realms that are elusive and unattainable.

However, there are still a lot of martial arts saints and ghost immortals, and they have established a country one after another, becoming the lords of the country who enjoy the luck of the country.

Melee battles among the countries are extremely frequent, conscription is being made everywhere, and wars are going on everywhere.

The huge population that the Great Xia Dynasty acquired after tens of thousands of years of operation began to decline sharply.

Before Song Yun's eyes, the chaotic scene gradually froze.

In Anxi City, smoke and dust filled the sky.

It's not a war, but many civilians are building houses, paving roads and repairing streets, and they are very busy.

Song Yun looked at the shape and arrangement of the houses from a distance, and found them very familiar.

"The old houses where the veterans in Beiting lived 100 years later were built at this time?"

Looking left and right, I didn't see the familiar Mingguangjia, and there was no red triangle beast flag of the Tang Dynasty on the top of the city.

"I don't know if there is no Tang country now, and whether there is a Beiting army."

Appearing alone in the city, he quickly attracted the attention of others.

Three peasants came with shovels in their hands, looked at them and asked, "Who are you? Where did you come from?"

With Song Yun's strength, as long as he wanted to, it was impossible for these ordinary people to see it.

He wanted to integrate into the environment as soon as possible, so he deliberately stopped at the same place. At this moment, he took out a few ingots of broken silver, lit them up, and said with a smile:

"I got lost in the desert and ended up here. I plan to stay here for a few days. I wonder if it's convenient for me?"

The peasants observed this strange young man, seeing that he was dressed in a simple white gown of Gebu, spoke calmly, had no weapons on his body, and did not look like a villain, so they nodded and said:
"It's okay to borrow for a few days, but the conditions here in Anxi are difficult, not comparable to the big city in the Central Plains..."

"It doesn't matter, as long as there is a place to live." Song Yun waved his hand, signaling for several people to take the money.

The three peasants grinned, but they didn't accept the money. "It's just an open space. How can I collect money? What's the name of this brother, and where is he from?"

Song Yun: "Song Bai, living in no fixed place, doing business everywhere."

The three of them were stunned for a moment, without any suspicion, the world is very chaotic now, affected by the flames of war, there are many people who live in no fixed place.

"Hello merchants, our employers, the Gao family, are rich merchants, they are rich, and the whole city has been taken over by them..."

These three civilian husbands were simple and enthusiastic, they reported their names and took the initiative to chat with Song Yun.

One of them is called Liu Qi, and the other two are called Li Feng and Li Wu. They are two brothers, both young and strong.

The three of them still had to work at this time, and Song Yun strolled around, chatting a few words from time to time to inquire about the current situation.

After chatting for a while, I realized that there is no Tang country in the world at this time, and the Beiting Army naturally did not appear.

Anxi, together with this desert, belonged to the Xu country - a medium-sized country in the north.

But the imperial court of the Xu Kingdom didn't care about this deserted city. The real controller of Anxi, that is, the employers of these civilian husbands, was the big family of the Gao family.

"The Gao family?" Song Yun became interested. What does a family want to spend a lot of manpower and financial resources to build a city in this desolate place in Anxi?
He was about to ask carefully, but he heard some voices in the distance, and raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Trouble is coming."

It turned out that there were other civilian husbands who saw the silver in Song Yun's hand, thought that Liu Qisan and the others had benefited from it, became jealous, and filed a complaint.

"It's just a good time to test out the details of the Gao family. Anyway, there is no venerable in the city, so I am not afraid of being exposed for a while." Song Yun glanced at the [Anxi real-time map] and pondered.

Not long after, a woman in brocade clothes held a soft whip, walked over with a cold face, and shouted softly:
"Let you work hard, I heard that you have started an inn business? Is it itchy?"

As he spoke, he glanced around in the crowd, found Liu Qisan and the others, and glared at them.

Li Wu is the youngest, less than 20 years old, and has the strongest temper. He muttered dissatisfiedly: "Who is in the inn business? When someone wants to borrow a room, it's just a convenience, and that's up to me?"

"You still dare to talk back? We paid you to let you work, if you don't want to do it, just leave!"

The woman in brocade clothes raised her brows upside down, raised her soft whip, and was about to whip it off.
