After the fairy disappeared

He Chunhua pursed his lips before saying, "It's your mother."

She collapsed after giving birth, and before she died, she chose a name for the child, hoping that he would be brave and fearless throughout his life.

"Why did you change my name to He Lingchuan later?"

He Chunhua said in a low voice: "Zhaomandu great shaman said that this name is more suitable for you and beneficial to you."

He Lingchuan was noncommittal: "Didn't father want to rush to the Panlong ruins? Let's go."

He Chunhua was waiting for this sentence.

But when he stood up and looked in the direction of the Panlong ruins, he suddenly let out a long breath.

Is this day finally coming?
He suddenly felt a little bit sad.

He Lingchuan could see that he seemed to have other emotions: "What's wrong with Dad?"

"It's okay!" He Chunhua smiled, "Let's go."

As soon as he gave an order, the Heishuicheng army replenished their water supply and marched towards the Chipa Plateau.

\\\\\

The closer you get to the Chipa Plateau, the more majestic and desolate it becomes.

The moat in front of the south gate of Panlong City was originally just a deep gully, but now it has shallow water.

Standing on the wide land bridge, Zhang Lianhai and others could hear the sound of gurgling water below.

This sound has disappeared in the Panlong Desert for more than 100 years.

When it came here, the mount stopped, no matter how people urged it, it just refused to move forward.

Ling Jinbao, the elder of Jianyang Gate, was riding a green barge beast. After a little communication with the barge beast, he said to everyone:
"They all feel that there is a huge danger ahead, and they dare not move forward."

Even the bird monsters in the sky came down to report that there was turbulence over the Panlong ruins, making it difficult for birds to get close.

They can't go.

Seeing this, people had to dismount and walk across the bridge.

As for the mount, find someone to take it to the nearby sand dunes for placement.

This little incident made everyone more vigilant, but they didn't give up the idea of ​​entering.

They came here because of the strange situation in Panlong City.If it's too peaceful here, what's the need for them to explore?

Everyone passed through the huge doorway and slowly walked into Panlong City.

Even the envoys of the Heavenly Palace, who were used to seeing all kinds of miracles, subconsciously held their breath when passing through the gate tower.

This solid and thick fortress, which is almost armed to the teeth, is full of scars left by the war except for the scratches of the years of wind and frost.

No matter who passes here, they will be shrouded by the stagnation and tragedy of history.

Zhang Lianhai couldn't help whispering: "This is Panlong City."

This little voice also echoed between the two urns.

It wasn't until they entered the South Gate Square that the howling wind woke everyone up from the atmosphere just now.

The ruined city in front of me was miraculously not covered by the wind and sand. Although there were traces of arson and burning everywhere, some buildings remained tenaciously.

A little clear water has accumulated in the pools and rivers in the South Gate Square, although there are no fish swimming yet.In the ground cracks, brick gaps, and the shadow of the building, a little bit of green has emerged.

There are even red and white grass flowers blooming sporadically by the river.

In the city spring the vegetation is deep.

Zhang Lianhai regained his composure, feeling that this forgotten city seemed to be about to wake up from its deep sleep.

This is not a compliment, but a kind of weirdness.

The Panlong ruins should be desolate, dilapidated, and lifeless.At least for the past 100 years, this is how it looked under the attention of the gods.

Since the shocking changes in Lingxu City, the Panlong ruins have indeed undergone corresponding changes.

When all kinds of people came here, they dispersed, trying their best.

Ling Jinbao from Jianyangmen was also observing the terrain, and his subordinates asked him: "Master, what should we do now?"

Although it is said to be an "investigation", but Panlong City is so big, where do we start to investigate?

"A group of people went to the temple, a group of people went to Zhong Shengguang's former residence and tomb, and a group of people went to the residence of the Red General. Several people also went to the south gate." Mi Tian, ​​Zhong Shengguang, and the Red General are all related to the Dafang Pot , if there are changes in Panlong City, we must first pay attention to these places.

As for the south gate, it is good to climb up.

The subordinates reminded: "Uncle Shi, we shouldn't be too scattered, right?"

This ghostly place is very evil, not to mention there are people from other routes also coming to hunt for treasure.

Ling Jinbao thought for a while: "Then divide into two groups and go to the temple and Zhong Shengguang's official residence."

While speaking, a human voice suddenly came from the alley in front:

"...the temple is also normal. But Da Sima told me that the entrance was opened at the temple last time..."

"There's water in there, and we tried..."

Then a group of people turned out around the corner, probably about twenty people.

Caught off guard, the two sides met face to face, both were startled, and subconsciously drew their weapons.

"who are you?"

The Jianyangmen stared at them: "Who are you?"

The other leader snorted.Everyone came for the same purpose, but no one wanted to declare their own family.

The two teams confronted each other fiercely, Ling Jinbao put the sword back in its sheath first, and spread his hands: "We don't want to cause trouble."

The atmosphere eased, the other party looked at them a few times, then turned to leave.

Ling Jinbao spoke at the right time: "Excuse me, when did you enter the city?"

"Why do you ask this?" The other party was still very vigilant.

"I've been here once to check the clues with you."

Several people on the opposite side looked at each other before saying, "I came in this morning."

In other words, they only arrived at Chipa Plateau and entered Panlong City this morning.

Ling Jinbao nodded: "We came here at night last time and encountered an illusion."

Is it really an illusion?Actually he doesn't think so.

The other party looked at them again and walked away.

"Uncle Master, this group of people have a very good face." They don't belong to any of the forces that started from Heishui City.

"Many people have ventured here to hunt for treasures. If we come, others will too." Ling Jinbao said, "They have come a long time ago, but it seems that they haven't gained anything."

"The 'big Sima' they are talking about, could it be Dong Haoming?"

There are also great Sima in other countries, but mentioning this name in the land of Yuan Country, it is hard not to remind people of the rebellion in the Northwest.Of course, Jian Yangmen also knew about Dong Haoming.

Another disciple was surprised: "Could it be the one who killed Senior Brother Wu Di..."

Ling Jinbao let out a "hush", showing displeasure: "What are you talking about? Let's go to the temple to see."

"Didn't they say that there is nothing in the temple?"

"They searched it? There were many visitors to this Panlong ruins in the past, and every house was searched. Why are we here again?"

Before long, they stood in front of the magnificent ruins of the temple.

Everyone knows that the only god enshrined in Panlong City is Mi Tian.

However, after the city was broken that year, the temple was also taken care of by the coalition forces of Baling and Xianyou. It was demolished to pieces, and most of it was set on fire and burned down. Even the statues were beheaded and pushed down.

"They said that there is water." Ling Jinbao walked around the temple and found that the only place with water was the offering pond in front of the temple.

The pool is not small, and there are traces of broken and repaired edges.Probably due to the repeated rainstorms in the past few days, a pool of water more than a foot deep has accumulated here, and the ground is clear and rippling.

His disciples also came over: "Da Sima's subordinates just said that the entrance is in the temple and that there is water. Could it be this pool?"

Ling Jinbao took out a copper coin and threw it into the pool.

The copper coins are actually said to sink to the bottom soon.Everyone can see it clearly through the pool water.

Ling Jinbao took the long stick and stabbed it at the bottom of the pool again, it was solid.

"The last time the entrance was opened in the temple?" He murmured, "When was the last time, how would Da Sima know?"

Has anyone ever successfully found the entrance?
And then, what happened?

A disciple climbed to the top of the tower to look far away, and suddenly said: "The people of Tiangong have made a move!"

He climbed up and looked far away, and he happened to be able to see the movement on the South Gate Square.

It turned out that the guardian of the Heavenly Palace had lit the pale platinum candle in the square.

The disciple muttered, "Aside from being able to light lamps, can he do other things?"

"This avatar of the lamp spirit is equivalent to their natal magic weapon. Most of the abilities of the guardian of the heavenly palace are displayed through it."

Everyone was startled: "Deng Ling...a clone?"

"There is an ever-burning lamp in the Heavenly Palace, which can last for hundreds of years. It is a very powerful magic weapon. The one brought out by the guardian of the lamp is nothing more than a clone."

As soon as the words fell, everyone saw Zhang Lianhai muttering something, and then lifted the candle up——

The spirit of the lamp was blazing and turned into hundreds of golden lights, rushing in all directions.

Every ray of golden light seems to have a spiritual wisdom. They drilled into the streets and alleys, inspected the building walls, and even the stone bridges by the river and the cracks in the bluestone slabs on the road were not spared.

Seeing this, Ling Jinbao immediately changed his words: "...Even if it is a clone, it has all kinds of wonderful functions."

Save the human search like them.

In terms of efficiency, I am afraid that the lamp spirit is higher.And these glowing things are also very sensitive to supernatural powers and mysteries, maybe they can detect things that are difficult for human eyes to see.

In the blink of an eye, a golden light flashed over, ignoring the Jianyangmen, but not letting go of any corner or crevice of the temple.

It also purposely hovered over the pool water twice, and suddenly plunged in.

Just a light, no substance.However, the pool water had two layers of ripples, and a small string of bubbles came up.

Something abnormal?Ling Jinbao immediately stared intently.

However, the golden light came up after turning twice at the bottom of the water, and found nothing.The pool water also quickly returned to calm, maybe it was just wrinkled by the wind.

Seeing it go away, the disciple wondered: "Master, where should we search now?"

Ling Jinbao's eyes flickered slightly, and he looked back at the South Gate Square: "It's best to let the people who are going to stare at the Tiangong in two people lead the way for us. Others, go to the city gate with me in the square."

Everyone followed, puzzled at the same time: "Why did you go to the city gate?"

"The red light at night rises from the ruins of Panlong, so wherever the light comes out, the treasure is there, understand?" At this point, Ling Jinbao suddenly remembered something, and paused, "Hey, wait! "

He looked up at the sky: "How long will it be dark?"

"It's already late when we arrive at the oasis outside the city, stay for half an hour before rushing back—" the disciple counted carefully, "It's almost sunset, isn't it?"

"Sunset, sunset." Ling Jinbao said to himself, "That's right, the last time we came was at night!"

He turned his footsteps and hurried to the outside of the city gate:

"Go, go! Go out first!"
