The Walk on The Edge of The Abyss

Chapter 3: Huang Zhong is counting time, asking the world about spring and autumn

Views:

The scholars behind Qiu Shuijing were frustrated.

Even though the young man named Su Yun was full of sunshine in his smile, he looked even more gloomy and terrifying in this gloomy ghost city.

A thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy, and still a blind man, actually mixed in with a group of fox monsters, and went to school with an old fox!

It's nothing more than going to school with the fox demon, but how did he break into the gate of heaven and run into the ghost market

You must know that this Tianmen ghost market is standing high in the sky, and ordinary people can't see the road of Tianmen at all, let alone enter the ghost market behind the gate.

How did a little blind man get here from a high altitude

If he entered the ghost market from Tianmen, he would definitely not be able to hide the eyes of Qiu Shuijing and others. If he didn't enter the ghost market from Tianmen, could there be another way to enter the ghost market

Even more bizarre is that, like the ghosts and gods in the ghost market, he is also setting up a stall in the ghost market!

Could it be that he is not a living person at all

If he were a living person, how could the ghosts and gods in the ghost market tolerate him setting up a stall in this place

However, if he was a dead person, how did he appear in front of everyone alive

The scholars can't wait to catch the little guy with the harmless smile of humans and animals over and study him thoroughly!

At this moment, a scholar suddenly realized that he lost his voice: "I see, he is a human demon!"

As soon as this remark came out, even Qiu Shuijing couldn't help being shocked.

Demon!

The spirit attaches to the human body and turns into a demon that destroys humanity!

This young man named Su Yun first studied with the fox demon, and now he appeared in the ghost market again. Neither the ghost nor the fox demon regarded him as a different kind. Is he really an incomparably evil human and demon

Qiu Shuijing suddenly lowered his voice: "Tianmen Ghost Market has a fourth rule: Take care of yourself and never ask more about other things! Sometimes there are too many things to ask, which will kill people."

The scholars felt awe-inspiring. There should be no fourth rule in Tianmen Ghost Market. Qiu Shuijing was worried about their safety, so he warned them not to be nosy.

"Is it the gentleman from the city?" the blind boy asked with a smile.

"Yes." Qiu Shuijing took a deep look at the young man named Su Yun and said.

He was startled, and suddenly he felt relieved: "He is not a human being."

He saw Su Yun's supernatural powers.

Su Yun's spiritual and supernatural powers are very light and light, and the heavenly eyes of the scholars can't detect it, and Qiu Shuijing also needs to look closely to see it.

Su Yun's magical powers are very strange, like a big yellow clock that keeps spinning.

This yellow clock is unique, as if the inside is buckled together by different rings, and the rings seem to be connected by gears.

The gears of the upper ring are smaller than the gears of the lower ring, which causes the rotation speed of the ring of the next layer to be much faster than that of the ring of the previous layer.

The ring of this yellow bell has seven layers.

The first layer is almost stationary, the second layer rotates very slowly, and the third layer rotates more than ten times faster than the second layer, but it is also very slow.

The fourth floor of Huang Zhong is more than ten times faster than the third, but the speed is not fast.

At the fifth level, the rotation speed can be easily detected.

The speed of the sixth layer is three to four hundred times that of the fifth layer, and the speed of the seventh layer is three to four hundred times that of the sixth layer, and it can rotate dozens of times in the blink of an eye!

"this is… "

Qiu Shuijing was extremely surprised, and immediately guessed the function of Su Yun’s spiritual supernatural powers: "His yellow clock is used for timekeeping. The first layer is the year, the second is the month, the third is the day, and the fourth is the time. The fifth layer is words, the sixth layer is seconds, and the seventh layer is hustle."

He showed a thoughtful look: "I know his purpose. He uses the yellow clock to calculate where he has gone. It's just that when the idler doesn't use the moment to time the clock, he uses the second to time the clock. enough."

People who cannot see with their eyes are inconvenient to walk and need to be led or explored with crutches, but this young man named Su Yun did not use crutches, and no one led him.

The reason why he can move freely is because he knows all the geography around him.

Just knowing the geography is not enough, he must have a time scale, using time and his travel speed to judge where he has been.

"He uses a sudden timing to show that every action he takes is extremely precise! He can never go wrong in a place he is familiar with!"

Qiu Shuijing even thought of more. If Huang Zhong was used to fight, then every movement of this young man named Su Yun would be extremely accurate, and he would not waste a little bit of strength!

"You can cultivate spiritual and supernatural powers at a young age, and you can cultivate to the realm of spiritual accumulation. His aptitude is extraordinary, but unfortunately he is a blind man. A blind man wants to learn things, it is many times harder than others."

Qiu Shuijing sighed secretly. In his heart, Su Yun was a manufacturable, even better than the aptitudes of the scholars behind him, but being blind also meant that no matter how good Su Yun's aptitude was, he could not achieve anything.

"This yellow clock is so precise, how did he cultivate such spiritual and supernatural powers?" Qiu Shuijing was quite curious in her heart.

Such a complicated yellow clock is extremely precise and can not tolerate the slightest error. Even the officials in charge of the calendar may not be able to cultivate such spiritual and supernatural powers, let alone a child

He became more and more curious about this young man named Su Yun.

"Su Yun, in Yuantianmen Town, Tianshi City, thirteen years old, something went wrong in his family when he was seven, seven years old, that is, six years ago, Tianmen Town six years ago..."

Qiu Shuijing's face changed slightly, and he glanced at Su Yun again, leading the scholars to the depths of the ghost market.

The ghost market is huge. Many people have tried to find the end of the ghost market, but no one has been able to explore it overnight.

Qiu Shuijing also planned to explore the ghost market this time, but after seeing Su Yun, he lost this mood.

He found the spirit of the big man, and asked the scholars to ask the big man's last wishes.

Qiu Shuijing silently listened to the great man's spirit to narrate his last wish, and was full of emotion in his heart.

He knows this big man, not only knows him, but he also had a lot of friendship back then, and he can even be called a close friend.

Later, because of a trivial matter, the two of them discovered that they had different ideas, and they gradually distanced themselves.

Although the concept is different, he has no complaints about this big man, only respect in his heart, so he will bring the scholars to fulfill the big man's unfulfilled wish.

"... My treasure is called the Floating Leading Chinese Pen. I have refined it all my life. There is only one requirement to take this treasure, to serve the country to the death."

Qiu Shuijing heard the words of the big man's spirit, with a smile on his face, but a bit sad in his heart.

My best friend can't let go of this country even after his death.

Both of them chose to save the country, but although the purpose was the same, the way to achieve it was different. Therefore, the difference in ideology led to their parting.

However, Qiu Shuijing felt that this close friend was a little more pure on the point of serving the country and saving the country.

On the other hand, when he was middle-aged, he had already wiped out all the enterprising spirit, left Dongdu in embarrassment and hid in the place of Shuofang.

There were voices from behind, Qiu Shuijing cleared up his mood, turned around and looked around, only to see other people in the ghost market, there were dozens of people one after another.

It should be the opening of Tianmen, and Shuofang’s tycoon sent someone to try his luck. As for Tian Shiyuan because of that change, there is no longer a powerful family.

In the second half of the night, all the scholars had gained, Qiu Shuijing ordered them to take the first step, leaving the ghost market, and instructed: "You go to Tianshiyuan Station, take a step back to Fangcheng. I may stay here for a while. "

The scholars left.

Qiu Shuijing watched them go away before returning to Tianmen and the ghost market.

He stood far away, watching the young man named Su Yun.

Su Yun hadn't noticed that the utensils he sold were all from the tombs, but compared to the treasures of ghosts and gods, his utensils were ordinary things, not treasures, and useless.

People who came to the ghost market to hunt for treasures just took a look at his booth and then left.

The night, getting deeper and deeper, gradually disappeared in the ghost market.

Su Yun began to pack things up, rolled up his booth, put it in a basket, and walked towards the depths of the ghost market with his back behind him.

Qiu Shuijing quietly followed this young man.

Before they knew it, they had come to the depths of the ghost market.

Looking up from the ground, the ghost city is a splendid and splendid divine city, vast and incomparable, with no end in sight. Walking in the ghost city, the deeper you go into it, the darker the surrounding buildings will be, and there will be no color.

Their feet are getting softer and softer, as if they are walking on top of clouds.

Even Qiu Shuijing hesitated, the ghost market was too big, and if he continued to follow this young man, if he didn't have time to turn back, wouldn't he be buried in the ghost market

He just thought of this when Su Yun suddenly stopped.

The little blind man did not continue down the street, but walked into the lane on the left.

Qiu Shuijing raised his eyebrows. The tunnel is the most dangerous place in the ghost city!

There are some inconceivable things left over from the ancient times, things that cannot be explained, and more importantly, the lanes are twisted and turned, the path is complex, like a maze, and no one has ever been able to get out of it!

Qiu Shuijing hesitated, gritted his teeth, and followed the blind man into the lane.

The houses on both sides of the road gradually became less like houses, but more and more like graves.

Coupled with the night, the tomb is integrated with the night, and only the outline can be seen faintly.

The wind howled, accompanied by the howling of ghosts and gods, the surroundings became more and more scary.

Ahead, the little blind Su Yun couldn't see the surroundings, but only identified his position and path according to his footsteps and the rotation of the yellow clock.

He had obviously been here, more than once, and walked forward without hesitation.

"Only a blind man like Su Yun who trained Huang Zhong can remember such a complicated terrain!" Qiu Shuijing was secretly surprised.

The path within the ghost city is extremely complicated, full of unexplained number of side roads, and each side road is almost exactly the same, so the eyes are easily blinded.

Only Su Yun can find a way in the ghost market!

Suddenly, Su Yun stopped under a big willow tree in front of a deserted grave.

Qiu Shuijing's heart moved slightly, and saw the blind young man grabbing a "willow branch" with both hands, swinging down, and sliding down the "willow branch" all the way, and soon disappeared without a trace!

"It's not a willow branch! It's a fairy rope!"

Qiu Shuijing was shocked, and hurriedly stepped forward, looked down, and saw that there was a hole under the willow tree, two feet square, black and dark, and a yin wind came from the hole.

And the "willow branch" that Su Yun was holding just now grew up in the wind, causing the young man to drag the "willow branch" all the way into the cave.

Look carefully, the "willow branch" is a hemp rope with the thickness of an egg, which is exactly what Qiu Shuijing said.

Qiu Shuijing hesitated, gritted his teeth abruptly, and reached out to grab the hemp rope and slid into the hole.

After sliding like this for only six or seven feet, suddenly he was empty!

Qiu Shuijing grasped the rope and looked down, and saw that he was holding the hemp rope, hanging high in the sky, the hemp rope swaying in the wind, and he was also swaying in the wind.

He looked up and saw the ghost market above his head, and hemp rope was hanging down from the hole.

"This immortal cable is the spiritual and supernatural power of a strong man..."

He relaxed, and slid down the willow branches, with some curiosity in his heart: "Shen Xian Suo was obviously prepared for Su Yun, so who on earth prepared it for him?"

He was quite puzzled: "And that yellow bell can't be taught by Mr. Wild Fox. There must be some secret in Su Yun!"

Qiu Shuijing slid all the way down the high altitude, and after a long time, he was down to earth.

He looked up, couldn't help but was startled, and saw that he was standing under a willow tree with a crooked neck, which was no more than two feet high, and a rope was hung from the trunk of the crooked neck.

And there is a deserted grave under the tree.

Just now, he grabbed this rope and slipped down from the sky!

"This hemp rope is the fairy rope, and this willow tree is the grave willow tree that is tied to the fairy rope! I clearly slid down a few miles all the way, why only two feet after landing..."

Green veins appeared on Qiu Shuijing's forehead. Su Yun was blind and could not see such a weird situation, so he never thought about such weird problems.

But he could see that he was disturbed by these weird things and disturbed his mind.

"The inability to see may not be a weakness, but it may also be an advantage."

Qiu Shuijing looked at the barren tomb under the tree, and saw that the tombstone of the barren tomb had fallen down, apparently left unattended for years.

"The person buried in the waste tomb must be a big man! Shenxian Suo should be his spiritual soldier. Why does he take care of Su Yun, the little blind man?"

The east has gradually turned white, and the night will go.

The young man named Su Yun walked in front with a basket on his back. The fog was rising in front, and a huge archway stood in the fog. There were five portals, carved with dragons and phoenixes, which was very gorgeous.

However, this archway is dilapidated and in disrepair for a long time, as if it would fall down at any time.

Qiu Shuijing followed the young man to the front and looked up. With the faint light before dawn, three simple red letters on the archway came into his eyes.

Tianmen Town.

"This is the famous Tianmen. Legend has it that skilled craftsmen imitated the Tianmen in Tianmen Ghost Market."

Qiu Shuijing just thought of this. Suddenly, a cool sea breeze dissipated the fog behind Tianmen, and Tianmen Town, built on the cliffs of the North Sea coast, appeared in front of him like a city on the sea!
