Chapter 120: The Unchanging Legend for Thousands of Years——Hengjiang Town
Chapter 120 A legend that remains unchanged for thousands of years—Hengjiang Town
"Jiejie, we finally came out!"
A group of demon kings emerged from the gap in the formation, looking at the direction Xu Changan and the others left with strong murderous intent.
It was so shameful and humiliating that I was so frightened by that sword that I hid in the seal. It was so unreasonable.
But they are not stupid, they just avoid the edge for the time being and keep an eye on it.
Check at any time and pay attention to the situation outside the seal.
When the ice bird appeared, many demon kings were ready to move and couldn't help but want to eat the ice bird to replenish their health.
But Lu Shengruyun overpowered everyone's opinions and forcibly stopped them.
The Soaring Snake King appeared at the right time, and his surging blood made more Demon Kings salivate and want to take action.
However, he was still stopped by Lu Shengruyun.
Until they left, the passage was broken, and the hole in the formation was repairing this short gap.
Lu Shengruyun seized the opportunity. A ray of aura from the abyss, at the critical moment before the formation was closed, blocked the repair of the formation and continuously corroded and destroyed the formation.
Finally, they opened a gap.
"Master Lu Shengruyun, is it really him? No matter how you look at it, he is just a seventh-level trash?"
The Demon King on the side stared at Xu Changan's back with bloodlust and a hint of fear.
He remembered the sword that killed the compound eyes and ears before.
Terrible and invincible!
"Not sure, let alone you, no matter how I look at him, he is just an ordinary seventh-level monk.
But the human race is very cunning, and their favorite thing is to pretend to be pigs and eat tigers.
Cultivation can never represent combat effectiveness.
Don't forget, the previous earth-level demons were like chickens and dogs in front of him.
Even if it wasn't him, that sword strike before was probably closely related to him!"
Lu Shengruyun saw the reluctance of the other demon kings.
They are the holy kings of the demon clan, and they were all heaven-level supreme beings before their fall.
But now, I am so afraid of such a little baby, which is simply embarrassing.
However, Lu Shengruyun really couldn't figure out Xu Changan's specific strength.
"Don't worry about him for the time being, regain your strength as soon as possible, and prepare for the recovery of the abyss!
You have been sealed for too long and do not go to him before your strength has been restored.
I don’t want there to be another tragedy like Double Ears and Compound Eyes.”
Hearing this, the other demon kings all nodded.
The Two-Eared Demon King and the Compound-Eyed Demon King were killed with one sword. They both regretted it and felt miserable.
It's obvious that their strength is more than that, but unfortunately the seal reduces their strength to the point of being suffocated to death.
Lu Shengruyun looked up at the cloudless sky. The huge golden stone tablet was falling faster and faster.
You can clearly see the traces of time on the stone tablet.
"The stone tablet of the Tianjiao List is about to fall. This time, let the light of the abyss shine on the world, and let all races fall into the fear of the abyss.
The hunting plan is officially launched.
I want to make sure that no one can be on their list of geniuses!"
The cold voice, with the endless icy coldness, and the hot weather make people feel like they are counting the ninth winter.
"yes!"
A group of demons scattered in all directions.
Lu Shengruyun did not chase Xu Changan's direction, but looked worriedly in another direction.
"My brother, I hope you won't let your brother down!"
One of the demon kings, looking at the backs of Xu Changan and others, his eyes flickered slightly, turned around, and rushed towards the direction Xu Changan and others were heading.
Henghe Town, also called Hengjiang Town.
A very special town is built along the river. From a height, the whole town looks like a sword cutting off the Lancang River.
It is said that the Lancang River was ferocious and vast in the past, and there was a big monster dragon making trouble in the river.
These monsters eat boys and girls when they are in a good mood, and cause trouble when they are in a bad mood, destroying farmland and houses, and flooding villages.
The people along the river were in dire straits and miserable.
You can't escape even if you want to.
As long as someone dares to escape, we will immediately control the flood of Lancang River and seal the road, threatening the lives of all the people.
Countless monks tried to solve this problem, but they all died in the river.
Until one day, an unknown swordsman in white clothes appeared out of thin air.
Seeing such a situation, he was furious and immediately drew his sword to help.
A sword slashed across the river for eight hundred miles, and all the demons and monsters fled.
After that, the sword cultivator left the sword here to suppress the Lancang River.
The remaining people built houses on this sword to rest and recuperate.
Achievements in Hengjiang Town.
No one knows whether this legend is true or false. But this story has been passed down.
"Brother Chang'an, tell me, is this story true?"
Li Wenqiu sat on top of Soaring Snake King's head, holding a Xu Changan brand homemade popsicle in his hand, and asked curiously.
The sound is as clear and crisp as a silver bell.
However, the Soaring Snake King below her was a little stiff and felt a little strange.
"have no idea."
Xu Changan looked at the ancient town ahead and felt something strangely familiar, but he couldn't place it and shook his head.
If it were in his previous life, Xu Changan would have said without hesitation that this was a lie. Maybe some tour group had made it up to attract tourists.
But in this life, Xu Changan felt that this story was probably true.
However, he said:
“Whether it’s a story or a legend, there will be more or less personal processing in the process of spreading it from mouth to mouth.
If you think this story is good, then treat it as true.
If you think it’s not good, then just think it’s fake.”
Li Wenqiu's eyes flashed slightly, looking at the quaint town and the mottled city walls, his eyes were a little dazed.
She had heard this legend too, more than once, but one thing was different from what Xu Changan said.
For thousands of years, the version of this legend has never changed.
Three thousand years ago, she first came here, when Hengjiang Town had just been built.
That story was conveyed very clearly.
She was so curious at the time that she even wanted to see the sword left behind, but she never found it.
Two thousand years ago, she came to Wanjian Academy during the human race's cleanup plan.
The version of the story I heard was exactly the same, word for word.
A thousand years ago, Wanjian Academy was destroyed by demon clan, and countless people died.
She was there at the time, but she was busy fighting at the time and didn't listen carefully to the story here, but she had a general understanding.
This time, when I came to Hengjiang Town again, the story was still exactly the same as three thousand years ago. There was something wrong with this feeling.
Something is very wrong.
A sentence will change in the process of transmission.
That's why there are words like hearsay.
What's the matter with "I said I was dizzy, and you said I wanted to get married.
I said I don’t know how to drink, but you said I’m a dead dog” and other such jokes.
Not to mention a story that has been experienced by countless people and spread for thousands of years.
No matter what classic it is, there will always be damage and processing by later generations in the process of spreading.
But there was no such thing as the story in Hengjiang Town. Every time she heard it, it was exactly the same.
It's like someone is deliberately correcting the story.
But why?
Repairing city walls, repairing formations, repairing weapons or magic spells is all understandable.
Why fix a story that has been passed down by word of mouth?
Who would be so bored that they would do such a thing?
This is just a bit baffling, isn’t it?
Li Wenqiu thought she knew more about the truth, but now she found that she didn't understand the world either.
"If it is Chang'an Immortal, I believe this story is true.
If it’s not Chang’an Immortal, I think it’s fake!”
Li Dagou on the side suddenly spoke with a simple and honest expression, which could be regarded as flattering Xu Changan.
Xu Changan smiled and shook his head.
"I, my skills haven't reached that level yet!
A sword across the river does not cut through the air, the river itself carries immeasurable power.
Even with the blessing of the great demon, I can’t do it!”
"Let's go and see the town.
This is my first time to go this far!
If it is possible here, I will buy a house here and live here when the time comes!"
Xu Changan looked at the ancient town in front of him and felt a little excited.
It's as exciting as traveling to a foreign country for the first time.
It has been almost a year since he traveled to this world.
This is the first time to visit such a place.
I don’t know what kind of people I will meet and what kind of things I will see later.
Xu Changan couldn't help but look forward to it.
At the same time, he was also a little curious as to why he felt an unknown sense of familiarity with this town.
