Chapter 40 Drunken Life and Death, the City under the Lake

The woman who separated the water wave and came out smiled faintly and said to Lan Xiyan, "This girl must be this gentleman's confidant. What a perfect couple!"

Lan Xiyan blushed and defended: "I'm not... He, he's my younger brother."

Meng Han suddenly came over and asked, "Brother?"

"Dear..." Lan Xiyan stared at Meng Han and said to the woman holding the piano, "I don't know if this girl's surname is Ling?"

The smile of the woman holding the piano suddenly convered and changed into a faint sadness. The two fighting crabs suddenly ran over and circled around her. A touch of setting sun lazily crossed the sky on Lingyu Lake at this time. Maybe the setting sun wanted to see what these children were doing and stopped swimming after rowing across the lake.

"Actually...it's nothing. My surname is Ling, and my mother named me 'Xianning'. I don't know what to call them.

Lan Xiyan walked over, took her hand and said, "This big man is called Iron Eagle. He is very good to us. Every time he fights, he is at the forefront." Ling Xianning nodded and heard Lan Xiyan continue to say, "That little sister's name is Meng Han. She shoots arrows very accurately and has a lovely temper."

Meng Han nodded vigorously. Iron Eagle touched his bare head and muttered in his heart, am I really that powerful?

"As for this guy..." Lan Xiyan suddenly stopped when she pointed her hand at Yun Yixian.

"What's wrong with me?" Yun Yixian wiped his nose and stared at Lan Xiyan fearlessly. He suddenly wanted to know how Lan Xiyan would evaluate himself.

Lan Xiyan ignored him and turned his head to Ling Xianning and said, "Don't look beautiful, he is actually a particularly annoying guy."

Yun Yi listened in his ear and did not interrupt, but waited for Lan Xiyan's follow-up. Ling Xianning looked at Yun Yixian carefully and shook his head gently.

Lan Xiyan suddenly smiled and said, "This guy not only borrowed other people's things and didn't return them, but also didn't admit it! He didn't learn the ability to save people, but he had to come to Meili to learn the means of killing and poisoning. And... He is a veritable pervert. Look at the way he looks at you?

Ling Xianning covered her mouth and smiled: "His eyes are very ordinary. However, each of the eight major sects has its own strengths. It's not right to say that Meili religion can only kill people and poison.

Lan Xiyan raised her head and looked at her pure and thin eyes, and there was a trace of sadness in her heart. He asked slowly, "What's wrong?"

Ling Xianning turned around, took a look at the lake, and said to several people, "Meili Glacier is the first barrier in the north, and Meili Religion has guarded this glacier for generations. For the country and the people, they did their best so that the Western Dynasty would not be disturbed by the foreigners in the north. Let the people enjoy this peaceful and prosperous era. In my heart, I still admire the people taught by Mei Li.

Lan Xiyan nodded. Seeing Yun Yixian and others around, she said, "I am also a person from Meili, called Lan Xiyan. This big pervert is called Yun Yixian. He has no ability, but can only speak slippery.

Ling Xianning just remembered the names of several people and asked, "Don't you know that Miss Lan and Mr. Yun were entrusted by their mother to take me back to Ling's house?"

Yun Yixian shook his head desperately and said, "I mean, Miss Ling, can you lend me some flowers you planted? That...five poison sticks, hairy ground yellow, and poinsettia, these three."

Meng Han rushed over, stabbed Yun Yixian in the back and whispered, "Brother Yun, why are you so direct? Aren't you ashamed to ask girls for flowers?

Ling Xianning heard him say the names of these flowers, frowned slightly and said, "I don't know what Mr. Yun wants these flowers to do?"

Lan Xiyan saw that Yun Yixian refused to speak, so she said, "This big pervert is poisoned and needs to use these flowers to prepare the antidote. But housekeeper Han said that we should come to you. Only if you agree can we buy those flowers.

Ling Xian smiled faintly and said, "I'm not that stingy. When you return to the house, tell Uncle Sheng that I agree to go to the house to pick flowers. He will give you the flowers.

Seeing that there seemed to be no danger around, the iron eagle came over and patted his stomach. He said, "But Ma Wang said that we should take you back, otherwise he would not give us those flowers."

Yun Yixian also came over, looked around and asked, "Miss Ling, Brother Han also said that none of the people he sent to find you went back. Miss Ling, do you know their whereabouts?

Ling Xianning's face darkened, smiled bitterly and nodded.

Meng Han came over and asked, "Can Sister Ling take us to find them?" I like the horses raised by Uncle Han very much!"

Ling Xianning was slightly stunned. It turned out that this little girl was just for Shengbo's horse! However, she still said to Lan Xiyan and Yun Yixian, "Miss Lan, you can find them if you take Mr. Yun and others and follow me."

Yun Yixian followed Ling Xianning to the lake. Ling Xianning held the piano in his arms and gently stroked it a few times. A few notes slowly flowed into the middle of the lake. The waves separated so magically, and a wooden bridge also came out of the water and reached the feet of several people.

"Let's go." Ling Xianning ignored several people and stepped on the wooden bridge. Yun Yixian followed without any hesitation. Meng Han looked at Yun Yixian's heel and stepped on it. Lan Xiyan looked at the separated waves and was curious, but she didn't think much about it. Only after several people stepped on it, the iron eagle said slowly, "I... can't swim."

Ling Xianning smiled and said, "You don't have to swim. This Hongqiao goes straight to the bottom of the lake. You just need to stand up. Next to me, you can breathe as freely underwater as on land.

The iron eagle was relieved and boarded the rainbow bridge. As soon as several people stood on the bridge, the bridge was rapidly shortened, but after a while, the bridge disappeared. At this time, five people have appeared in front of a city.

The difference between this wall and the charming glacier is that it is made of blue marble. The wall is not high but very thick. The open gate is wide and large. There is no name or sound in this city, let alone the shadow of any creatures.

A dead city!

This is the common idea of several people. Ling Xianning said lightly, "This city is called drunk and dream death."

Lan Xiyan looked at the wall for a moment and sighed, "What a good name." Meng Han held his braids and asked puzzledly, "Is there any wine in this city?" Tie Ying said, "Don't say this drunken dream is dead, I don't think there is even a living person." Yun Yixian put her hands on her chest, sighed and asked, "Does Miss Ling want to tell us that the people sent by the Ling family to find you are trapped in this city?"

Ling Xianning nodded and said, "Most people in the Ling family practice by themselves. They can't resist the sound of underwater, and they are lively and fragrant. In fact, I know that this is a soul skill of both water and darkness. Because I learned a lot of Huo Yunzong's soul skills when I was a child, I still have a certain understanding of these soul skills.

Yun Yi scratched his head and asked, "Is this Huo Yunzong's soul skill? Is Huo Yunzong's soul skill so powerful? Why haven't I seen it?"

Lan Xiyan looked at him with an idiotic expression and explained, "Huo Yunzong's soul skills use water, fire, wind and earth, light and dark thunder wood as spirits, and use sword spirit to guide. In other words, Huo Yunzong's soul skill is to achieve his goal by manipulating the eight spirits.

Yun Yi was puzzled and said, "Eight Spirits? What is it?

Lan Xiyan couldn't wait to break his head and gritted her teeth and said, "Eight spirits, that's what I just said about water, fire, land, light, dark and thunder and wood!" In other words, they are the eight most basic elements that make up our world.

Only then did Yun Yixian understand and held his fists and said, "Sister Lan is really knowledgeable. I admire my brother! I admire it!"

Lan Xiyan saw Yun Yi playing treasure here and ignored him. Ask Ling Xianning, "Miss Ling, do you think this is Huo Yunzong's soul skill, which makes all the people in your house trapped here?"

Ling Xianning shook his head and looked at the not too high wall and said, "This is indeed Huo Yunzong's soul skill, but I'm afraid no one in the world can release such a powerful soul skill. So I think this should be a formation!"

Yun Yixian suddenly remembered that day, when she was trapped in the red-roof house, the wind, rain, thunder and lightning never stopped for a moment. Is that also a formation? Or... is that the fantasy set by the strange old man?

Lan Xiyan heard that this was a formation and frowned, "If so, I'm afraid it's not easy to do. Will there be any danger for the people of Lingfu to be trapped in this city?

Ling Xianning shook her head and said, "I don't know what danger Miss Lan is talking about. But I know that people trapped by this method, although their lives are not in danger, will sing at night, drink every day, and cut off contact with the outside world.

The iron eagle suddenly patted his forehead and said, "I have seen this array on the battlefield. It is the heavenly capital array created by the emperor! As long as someone goes in, they will be confused and feel that they are from another world.

Meng Han said, "Bad uncle, the last time you went to Ling's house, you said that those strange trees were formations. This time, it is said that this broken city is a formation. Where did so many formations come from in this world?

Yun Yixian touched Menghan's head and said to several people, "Miss Ling means that you won't be confused by this method, but you can't save the people trapped in the array, right?"

Ling Xianning nodded. Lan Xiyan said, "Are you going to use up what the master gave you so soon?"

Yun Yixian said, "Anyway, the lives of the people in this time will not be in danger, right?"

Ling Xianning nodded, hoping that he could say something good.

Yun Yixian glanced at Ling Xianning and said, "Is Miss Ling unwilling to go back because she can't save them?"

Lan Xiyan stared at him and said, "What are you going to do?"

Seeing Ling Xianning nodding without any hesitation, he ignored Lan Xiyan and said to everyone, "I have an idea, but I don't know if it's useful!"

Meng Han said, "Come on! At that time, there will be wine and good horse riding!" Tie Ying sighed and did not interrupt. The other two girls also quietly looked at Yun Yixian.

"Just a few of us, Brother Tieying recognizes this formation. Brother Iron Eagle has no way to crack it. Why don't we go back to Ling's house first and ask Brother Han? Maybe he will have a way.

"But..." Ling Xian stopped talking and sighed for a long time, "Forget it, it's nothing. I don't think there's anything I can do. We can go back first. When my mother comes back from the sky, maybe she will have a way to solve this big array.

Lan Xiyan nodded one after another and looked at Yun Yixian at the same time.
