Demon King's Wife

Chapter 333 The Mystery of the Dead City
Hearing the sound of wild laughter, Mu Ruoxin and Yan Liheng immediately heightened their vigilance, and each of them looked at the other side, guarding against someone's surprise attack.

"Who? Come out..."

"Little girl, haven't you been calling to see me? Why don't you know who I am now?" An old man in a fairy dress appeared in a flash, his gray hair was slightly flowing, and there was a little bit of seriousness under his seriousness. He is quite unruly, not the kind of square and upright fairy head, although he is old, but the childlike innocence is still there, and he is smiling happily.

Seeing such an old man, Mu Ruoxin was not surprised. He could guess that Lu Yixiao was an old naughty boy when he passed the four levels of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. It was expected, and I didn't have time to worry about what kind of person he was, so I was anxious to ask how to get out of here, "You are Lu Yixiao... Senior, can you tell me how to get out of here? ?”

"Didn't you already know the answer, why do you need to ask more?" Lu Yixiao tilted his neck to ask Mu Ruoxin, and winked at her mischievously, the expression on his face changed from moment to moment. stopped too.

"You mean you want us to find the power you hide here?"

"That's right, that's the way, and it's the only way. This illusion has existed for thousands of years, and no one has been able to break through the four barriers of the gate of heaven, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting for thousands of years. You are the first , I hope it will be the last one. Little girl, you have to work hard! I am optimistic about you."

"Hehe... But I don't want to waste any more time here. Senior Lu Yixiao, my son is still waiting for me outside! Please put me back, I will definitely thank you for your kindness. "

Lu Yixiao jumped forward and jumped in front of Mu Ruoxin.

Yan Liheng thought that Lu Yixiao wanted to harm Mu Ruoxin, so he stood in front of him as quickly as possible, glared at him, full of hostility, and asked sternly, "What do you want to do?"

Lu Yixiao teased Yan Liheng, and said with a playful smile: "Don't be nervous, don't be nervous, I won't do anything to your woman, don't worry. This little girl is very interesting, and you are not bad. It’s invincible in the illusion! I really want to know if you can really solve the mystery of this illusion.”

"..." Haven't they solved enough riddles?Resolve...

"If you solve all the puzzles, you will be able to gain great power and leave here safely. After you get my power, you will be completely reborn. Although you may not be number one in the Xuanling world, you will definitely be the best of the best. .”

"We're not interested in your strength."

"Good boy, don't say it too early. The magic power in you is so strong. If you don't have a strong force to control them, you will become a real demon in a short time. And you also want to become stronger, so You can protect the people you want to protect, right?"

Yan Liheng didn't make any response, but looked at Lu Yixiao with surprised and vigilant eyes, and he was more on guard against this person.

A person who can read everything in his heart, how can he not guard against it?

"You don't have to be on guard against me. I won't hurt you. I will seal you here until the person who can solve all the mysteries appears, and then you will be free again."

"Humph."

"Don't hum! What I said is the truth. You and your husband are both very interesting people. You have courage, knowledge, and perseverance. What's more rare is that you have love in your heart. It's interesting and interesting, that's what I like Interesting person. The little girl has a different understanding of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and the young man treats beauties, wealth, and power as dung. I can't imagine that there are such people in this world, so strange!"

Mu Ruoxin refuted Lu Yixiao's words face to face, but murmured in her heart: She passed those four levels by mistake, and it all depends on luck.As for wealth, she would not treat it like dung, she wanted as much as it came.

Lu Yixiao seemed to be able to read people's hearts, knowing what Mu Ruoxin was thinking, ignoring Yan Liheng's obstruction, suddenly flashed to her side, and said to her with an evil smile: "Little girl, do you love money so much? If I If you were asked to choose between money and a husband, how would you choose? Do you want a husband or money?"

"You can read minds." Mu Ruoxin answered irrelevant questions, stopped thinking about other things, and waited seriously for Lu Yixiao. Although she didn't like this person, she didn't dislike him either, because she felt that this old man was brighter than those outside. many.

"Haha... It's easy to talk. The voices of the two of you are so loud, I don't think it's hard not to hear! Although you didn't answer, your voice has given me the answer. Your answer is to choose a husband. It seems that you have not yet He loves money very much, haha..."

"Hmph, so what?"

"Humph, hum again, both of you husband and wife love 'hum', interesting and interesting, fun, fun, really fun." Lu Yixiao circled around Mu Ruoxin and Yan Li horizontally, and said while turning: "Little girl, young man , you are different from others, I like it, I like it. How about this, I will give you a little discount, you don’t have to pass the messy levels in the back, you just need to pass it again. After passing this level, you not only You can get powerful power, and you can also get a treasure map, of course, you can still leave here, and those who are sealed here will be restored to freedom together."

"Really?" Mu Ruoxin was dubious.

"Of course it's true. I, Lu Yixiao, always say what I say."

"Okay, then please come up with the question, we husband and wife must do our best." Mu Ruoxin took Yan Liheng's hand, made a decision by herself without asking for his opinion.

Even without asking, she knew that Ah Heng would definitely do the same.

Yan Liheng did decide to do the same. To make sure, he put forward some conditions to Lu Yixiao, "I want to be with her in the last test, and you must not separate us. Also, once we pass the test, those who are Don't let the people you keep in the illusion appear before us."

He didn't want to see a bunch of messy people as soon as he went out, and he didn't want too many people to know that they had obtained Lu Yixiao's power, otherwise there would be more troubles.

There are already enough troubles from the Five Colors God Stone, if there are some messy troubles, wouldn't they be bored to death?

Regarding the conditions proposed by Yan Liheng, Lu Yixiao was a little puzzled, and asked: "I can understand the first condition, but I can't understand the second condition. You mean that you don't want those people to know that you have been here before." Is it? But there are already two people who know about it, and it won’t take long to keep it a secret.”

"You don't have to worry about this, as long as you agree."

"Okay, I agree to everything. Get ready, I'm about to start." Lu Yixiao reminded, his body slowly became transparent, and then disappeared, leaving only one sentence, " Little girl, young man, don't let me down, haha..."

The laughter gradually became smaller, and finally there was no sound, which showed that the person had gone far.

After Lu Yixiao left, Mu Ruoxin breathed a sigh of relief, let go of her sealed heart, thought about things as she wished, and complained: "This person is too unkind, to use mind-reading skills on people casually, doesn't he? Don't you know that this is an invasion of other people's privacy? A bad old man..."

Just as Mu Ruoxin finished complaining, there was a tremor on the ground.

Not much vibration, but enough to shake a few times.

For such a shock, Yan Liheng didn't take it seriously, and he didn't worry that Mu Ruoxin would be hurt because of it. He stood firmly and said, "Ruoxin, even though he has left, he can still read What you think in your heart at this time, hear what you say."

"What's the difference between that and being watched?"

"It doesn't matter, we are frank and open, and we act openly and aboveboard, so why not be afraid of his mind-reading skills, let him read if he wants to read."

"Ah Heng, you are really free and easy, you can see things like this, I admire you."

"It's not that I can see it, it's just accepting the fact. We can't change this fact, so why worry about it."

"That's right, why bother. Forget it, don't think about it, let's think about what the last hurdle is?" Mu Ruoxin put her mind on the business, and only then noticed that the surrounding environment had changed. The dead city just now, but the road and scenery have changed slightly.

"Ah Heng, do you feel anything strange?"

"It's just that the environment has changed, why is there only one?" Yan Liheng didn't take it seriously, he already knew it when the environment here changed.

"The environment has changed, isn't it strange?"

"This is an illusion, and it changes according to the master's thoughts. Since Lu Yixiao said that he wants us to break through the last level, then he will definitely not let us take it here."

"That's right. Ah Heng, what do you think this last level will be? Based on my understanding of Lu Yixiao, it must be another kind of puzzle that doesn't follow common sense. We don't want to think about it according to normal things. .”

"The soldiers are here to cover the water and the soil, let's go, go to the front and have a look." Yan Liheng was still calm and calm, especially after meeting Mu Ruoxin, he was not as anxious as before, and even had a tantrum. A little bit of greed.

Lu Yixiao was right just now, he really wanted to become stronger, the power hidden here.Only by becoming stronger can he protect the people he cares about.

Why didn't Mu Ruoxin think so, after she didn't need to worry about finding Yan Liheng anymore, she put her mind on the power here, and even wanted to land the wealth that Lu Yixiao just mentioned.But she is also very clear that this is a mirror of illusion, and most of the things inside are fake and cannot be taken as real.

Forget it, everything depends on fate, if there is fate, you will get it, and if you don't have the fate, you can't force it.

Yan Liheng and Mu Ruoxin walked side by side, and walked half a circle in the dead city. All they saw were dilapidated houses and things, without a single figure, and there was lifelessness everywhere.

"Ah Heng, how can I solve the mystery of this dead city?" Mu Ruoxin looked at it for a long time but couldn't see anything wrong in the dead city, and couldn't find the puzzle.

Only by finding the puzzle can the puzzle be solved, even if the puzzle cannot be found, how to solve it?
"Don't worry, let's look for it carefully." Yan Liheng's patience is much better than Mu Ruoxin's. He is not in a hurry at all. He walks slowly and looks carefully. Wood is not spared either.Just because I looked carefully, I walked very slowly, and sometimes I had to stop and look a little more, so I didn't finish this dead city after walking for a long time.

Mu Ruoxin was tired from walking, and seeing Yan Liheng stop to study a cracked stone, she found a place to sit down and rest at random, and complained, "This Lu Yixiao is really, it won't matter if we want us to pass the last level." Tell us what the puzzle is, and we've been wandering around here for so long, wasting time."

"But it's strange to say that we've been here for a long time, yet we don't feel hungry or thirsty at all. Ah Heng, do you think we've become immortals?"

"Ah Heng, what's wrong with you?"

Yan Liheng listened to Mu Ruoxin's complaints, didn't say anything, carefully studied the cracked stone, and finally let him find some clues, "Ruoxin, come and have a look."

"What are you looking at?" Mu Ruoxin came over and stared at the cracked stone. She didn't see any clues at first, and was confused, "Ah Heng, is there anything unusual about this stone? ?”

"Look at the crack in the stone."

"The rift... the rift is smooth and neat, and it looks like it should have been split by a sharp blade. So what?"

"Then look at the other gaps."

"Other rifts... this rift seems not to be split by a sharp blade, but to be shattered. Strange, why do the same stone have different cleavage methods? Could it be that this stone was not only shattered, but also shattered by a sharp knife? Have you been? But it doesn't look like..."

"Let's turn the stone over." Although Yan Liheng said 'we', he still did it himself, turning the big rock over with all his strength.

Mu Ruoxin stepped forward to help, because she couldn't use spells and her spiritual power was sealed, so she could only use brute force, and the two of them had a lot of effort to turn the stone over.

"what……"

But after the stone was overturned, the ground suddenly turned upside down, causing them to be unable to stand still. As the ground turned and rolled, they were not rescued until the ground returned to calm.

"What the hell is going on here? How did the ground turn upside down?"

"Ruoxin, are you okay?" Yan Liheng got up first, and then went to help Mu Ruoxin up. The upside down just now threw them hard, and their bodies hit many places, which hurt.

"It's not very good, my butt is about to fall in half..." Mu Ruoxin covered her sore butt with her hands, although she had a painful expression on her face, she was very grateful in her heart.

There were rocks everywhere, and it was a stroke of luck that they didn't hit their heads when they turned upside down.

"Does it hurt anywhere other than your butt?"

"Ah Heng, don't worry, I'm fine. What about you, are you injured?" Mu Ruoxin relieved the pain, realized that Yan Liheng also fell hard, and cared about him.

"No problem."

"It's fine. I think it's because Lu Yixiao doesn't want us to suffer too much, ha ha!"

"perhaps."

"That's fine, no matter what happens ahead, we don't worry that our lives will be in danger, hee hee! Eh...strange, it seems to have changed here, Ah Heng, take a look..." Mu Ruoxin noticed now To the change of the surrounding environment, familiar and unfamiliar.

This is what the dead city looked like just now, that's right, it's just upside down.But after coming here, it is a little less dead, not so like a dead city, like a place where you haven't lived for a long time.

"This should be the real appearance of this place." Yan Liheng guessed, and looked at the big rock again, and saw a map on the turned side of the rock, a broken map.

"It's a map, what kind of map?"

"If I'm not wrong, it should be the map here, but it's incomplete. As long as we walk out of the dead city according to this map, we can break the last level."

It turned out that this was the mystery of the dead city. If he hadn't carefully discovered the clues of the stone, he might never have known that the dead city was upside down for the rest of his life.

"The map here." Mu Ruoxin studied the map carefully, trying to put together the missing parts with his imagination, but he was too dazzled to put it back together.

"Ah Heng, do you see anything?"

Yan Liheng shook his head and answered, then continued to look at the map, and drew it with his hands, saying what he thought, "This map is broken and incomplete, and many places are difficult to connect. Look here, it is obviously a house, but after the gap, it is It has become a river, is there a house built on the river? But it is not right, there is a long bridge over the river, what house can be built so long?"

"It's really strange, and here. It's obviously a mountain outside, but the broken place next to it has turned into a plain. Could it be that such a small place can have such a big change in landform? Ah Heng, this map is really ugly For some reason, should we continue to spend our time on it?"

"Ruoxin, this is the mirror of illusion, and most things come from illusion. If you were the master of this illusion, would you spend your time thinking up an incomplete map? Unless it is intentional..."

"I understand. This map was deliberately made by Lu Yixiao. If you want to find the mystery of the dead city, you have to start from this map."

"It should be so."

"But this map is incomplete and can't be connected. How can we find it?"

"Don't worry, if we look carefully, we will always see the difference. If there is a pen and paper, it would be great..." Yan Liheng wanted to draw the map, and walked around looking for it with the map, but it is a pity that he is now There is nothing, and I can't find pen and ink around, so why should he use blood to draw...

Just when Yan Liheng was about to draw a map with blood, Mu Ruoxin said suddenly: "You want a pen and paper! I have it here!"

Mu Ruoxin opened the painting circle in his hand, found the place where the pen and ink were stored in the words, and tried to reach for it.In fact, she didn't have much hope, she just wanted to try it out, if she could get it out, it didn't matter if she couldn't get it out, but who knew that she actually got it out in the end.

"Wow... Ah Heng, look, look, I took out the things in the painting!"

"This painting is really miraculous." Yan Liheng finally opened his mouth to praise the painting in Mu Ruoxin's hands, took the pen and paper that Mu Ruoxin handed over to him, and then drew the map on the stone.

Mu Ruoxin watched from the side, and told Yan Liheng if there was anything that needed attention, and tried to make the drawn map consistent with the one on the stone.

Yan Liheng draws very seriously, and puts his heart into every stroke.The map was too complicated, and he had to be careful when drawing, otherwise the drawing would be different, and it would be their own trouble.

Mu Ruoxin stayed with Yan Liheng patiently, not in a hurry at all, without the irritability just now, sometimes she could still stare at Yan Liheng and laugh out loud, teasing him.

"Ah Heng, you look really good when you are serious."

When Yan Liheng was painting, he was also in the mood to joke with Mu Ruoxin, "You mean, it doesn't look good when I'm not serious?"

"Of course not. My husband looks good all the time. Ah Heng, do you still remember the Yang Yuming I mentioned to you?"

"Why did you mention him all of a sudden?" Although he believed that Ruoxin would not change her mind, he still didn't like her thinking about other men all the time.

"That Yang Yuming is really..."

"how?"

"It's too good-looking. Of course, in my eyes, Ah Heng is the most beautiful and handsome man. When it comes to Yang Yuming, I always feel that this person has a lot of background. I don't know if he will leave this illusion Will go out and trouble us..."

"If he dares to trouble you, I will definitely not let him go." Yan Liheng was drawing the map seriously, while responding to what Mu Ruoxin said, thinking about Yang Yuming.

No matter who this Yang Yuming is, as long as he dares to touch Ruoxin, he will not let him go no matter how hard he tries.

But it's not that time yet, when Ruoxin talked about that person, she didn't feel disgusted at all, nor was she disgusted or angry, which shows that this person is quite a bit of character.

So what, anyway, if Ruoxin is his, no one can try to compete with him.
