Screaming Cycle (Infinite Flow)

Ji Thrush and the others stayed in the courtyard and rested peacefully until the afternoon.

At ten o'clock in the evening, Yuanchen Palace brought dinner to everyone, and after they had finished eating, a visiting monk came to pick them up to Guixi Temple.

Ji Xiaoniao had previously heard that a car was arranged for them, but he didn't know that this "car" was not that "car" until he saw the real thing.

Lined up in a row and parked in front of the gate of Yuanchen Palace, they turned out to be four floats with exaggerated decorations.

Ji Thrush raised his head, staring at the gorgeous float covered with flowers and colorful silk shrines and colorful neon characters, his steps could not help but pause.

He thought of sitting in this kind of car to patrol the streets later, and felt a strange sense of shame for no reason.

And obviously, Ji Thrush is not the only one who feels this way, because many people's footsteps have also become hesitant.

The guest monk who was in charge of guiding Ji Thrush and his group was a young man in his early 30s, with a handsome appearance and benevolent eyes, and he had the temperament of a great Tang monk.

He seemed to see what everyone was thinking, smiled gently, and reminded:

"Benefactors, please get in the car."

What else can be done?

Ji Thrush and the others could only step on the steps covered with golden embroidered carpets, and boarded the float one by one.

The four floats started, left Yuanchen Palace, and drove southward slowly in the twilight.

Ji Thrush feels that the float they are riding now is a bit like the open-top sightseeing bus he used to ride in foreign competitions. The surroundings are wide open, with no roof and no walls. Excellent, it is really suitable for driving and enjoying the scenery on a sunny day.

It's a pity that now they are sitting on this gorgeous float, but they have become the people being watched.

The topography of the top-heavy city is layered upon layer, and the buildings are criss-crossed, so the streets appear a bit narrow.

Although it is not as difficult as the lower city for cars to drive in, just these four floats covered with complicated decorations directly occupy the two lanes of traffic.

Both sides of the road were full of onlookers, and even more people stuck their heads out of the windows of buildings facing the street to watch.

Wherever the floats go, the audience will cheer enthusiastically, occasionally mixed with whistles and enthusiastic confessions.

In addition to cheers and applause, many enthusiastic citizens will throw some wrapped gifts on the floats of their favorite participating teams.

When the car just drove onto the street, Ji Thrush felt for the first time what a "fruit-throwing car" is, and at the same time, he also worried that he would be killed by falling objects.

"Hahaha, benefactor, don't be afraid."

As soon as the guest monk turned his head, he saw Ji Xiaoniao sitting behind him keeping his head up, turning his neck, always alert to the movement above his head, and couldn't help laughing:

"Don't worry, the gift will never hit you."

He smiled and pointed upwards:

"look--"

Ji Thrush looked in the direction he pointed, and sure enough, he saw a bag of biscuits and candies tied with ribbons falling from the sky, and it was about to land on their float.

And at this moment, a thin transparent film jumped up from the decoration of the float, like stretched petals, accurately wrapped around the bag of snacks, and gently shook it to send it safely Enter the open space behind the roof without any seats.

Ji Xiaoniao glanced back again, and there were seven or eight kinds of gifts piled up in the area behind the carriage, and there would be more and more.

"……I see."

After Ji Thrush heaved a sigh of relief, he couldn't help sighing:

"You guys here... are really special..."

The guest monk was taken aback for a moment, and after a little thought, he understood the implication of Ji Thrush's endless exclamation, "Indeed, Youdingtian City is very special, right?"

He smiled and nodded.

"Yes."

Baroque next to him heard this, and poked his head through a passageway: "We have been to quite a few 'worlds', such as Youdingtiancheng, it is indeed the only one."

Baroque is not speaking politely.

As a participant who has been promoted to S-level difficulty for some time, under the control of "Peach Blossom Spring", he has been forced to travel too many other worlds.

However, in most of the "worlds", the development route is to choose between magic and technology. Few of them are like Youdingtian City, which has both quite good mechanical technology and religious belief. Sophisticated technique level.

After Baroque expressed his thoughts, Ji Thrush felt the same way.

His adventure experience is far less rich than that of others, but he did feel the specialness of the Dingtian City...

……wrong!

Thinking of this, Ji Xiaoniao's eyes suddenly flashed, and a flash of light seemed to flash in his mind.

——No, as far as I know, the "world" where magic and technology go hand in hand is not the only city with a roof!

He subconsciously looked at Ren Jianmo, his throat rolled, suddenly thinking of their current situation, he swallowed back what he wanted to say.

— There is another such "world".

Ji Thrush thought, "Peach Blossom Spring", isn't it the same?

"Haha."

Hearing this, the guest monk laughed again.

"That's why Xiacheng holds the 'Vatican Flower Fair' every ten years."

He smiled and proclaimed the Buddha's gatha, "Only by absorbing the strengths of all families can we go further."

"That's right."

Mo Tiangen, who was sitting behind Ji Thrush, seemed to be very interested in this topic. Hearing the excitement, he simply supported the back of the front seat, stood up halfway, and joined their conversation:

"However, holding the 'Vatican Flower Fair' like you do, and recruiting contestants from different time and space, won't it bring danger to the Dingtian City?"

"Amitabha!"

The guest monk shook his head, "Sin, sin!"

"Don't say it, it's really possible!"

Mo Tiangen still refused to give up his idea:

"Suppose your city offends one or two enemies, and the other party even does not hesitate to label a few elites to cause some damage, and let the contestants who sneak in carry one or two small nuclear warheads or something..."

He didn't finish the second half of the sentence, but silently made a "boom" mouth shape.

"No, this kind of thing is absolutely impossible."

The young monk repeated it again, this time with more certainty.

Later, he told Ji Thrush and others that Youdingtian City has a very complete defense mechanism, and those who have malicious intentions towards Youdingtian City or those who pose a huge threat cannot enter the city.

"However, how do you know who is carrying a major threat?"

Mr. Dagen once found those weapons of mass destruction that could be implanted in the human body in the list of disposable props in "Peach Blossom Spring".

He believed that with some alien time and space technology, even something that could destroy a city at once might be able to hide in the human body and sneak in without anyone noticing.

"Because of energy."

The guest monk made an "expand" gesture and continued to explain patiently:

"The 'entrances and exits' we have arranged...that is, the wormhole space that the benefactors usually refer to, there is a clear upper limit on the energy that can be accommodated. If this upper limit is exceeded, the entrances and exits will be overwhelmed. Huge mass crushed to the point of warping and becoming unusable."

The monk smiled and paused.

"If any contestant carries a dangerous weapon with a destructive power that exceeds the defense capability of the Dingtian City, or his own strength is so strong that it exceeds the upper limit of the blessings that 'Vatican' can give, they will Because of its too large 'mass', it was rejected by the entrance and exit, and could not enter our city."

After listening to the guest monk's explanation, Ji Thrush gave a soft "Oh".

He seemed to understand.

It's just that Ji Xiaoniao had a vague idea in his mind.

Is it the same principle when "Peach Blossom Spring" selects the difficulty of the "world" that the participants go to?

The more powerful the person, the greater the "quality" will be, so the participants can only gradually go to the "world" with higher and higher difficulty, and cannot return to the "world" with lower difficulty.

Once this idea arises in his mind, it is out of his control at all.

During the next half-hour drive, Ji Thrush didn't have the heart to appreciate the view of the Topped City.

He has been chewing over and over again in his mind everything he knows about "Peach Blossom Spring" so far, and trying to sort out the clues in this mess of clues.

Finally, the float stopped in front of Guixi Temple, and the back of the roof was already full of gifts thrown by the citizens.

"arrive."

Ren Jianmo stretched out his hand, gently embraced Ji Thrush's shoulder, and said in a low voice:

"Let's get out of the car."

……

The floats of the four participating teams stopped in front of the mountain gate of Guixi Temple one by one.

When Ji Thrush got off the car, the first thing he saw was a statue of Sakyamuni Buddha that was five or six stories high.

Different from the bronze or brass statues he often saw before, the material of the Buddha statue was molybdenum-iron alloy that was polished so smooth that it could be used as a mirror. layers of gold.

The statue of Sakyamuni is not only extremely high-end, but also really majestic. Ji Xiaoniao was stunned, looking up, unable to turn his eyes for several seconds.

"All benefactors, please."

The Zhike monk led them into the mountain gate, and brought them all the way to the monastery where they rested tonight.

Guixi Temple is very large, built on the mountain, and in the pure place of Buddhism, you can't use any means of transportation, you can only walk by yourself with two feet.

Ji Thrush and the others walked for 10 minutes, bypassing several temples and passing through several courtyards, before finally arriving at the residence assigned to them.

This time, everyone lived in a single courtyard with six rooms.

It's just that compared with the wing rooms provided by Yuanchen Palace, the monastery of Guixi Temple is simpler and quieter.

"Tomorrow's morning class will be held at [-] o'clock. After the morning class is over, the trial that the temple has arranged for you will officially begin."

The Zhike monk said, put his palms together and bowed to everyone:

"Please rest early tonight."
