Chapter 7: The Banner of the King of the City Changes
April 20, 2018
When Wang Jiu finally closed "Feiyan Zhiwei Volume 22", the time had already come to two days later.
The millions of books in the library have been browsed through by him, memorized word by word, and moved to the knowledge base of the sword world.
Zhao Shenlu's collection value is very high, in the 17-year-old girl's 36 years of life, a considerable part of the energy is used to collect anecdotes from Tiannan and Haibei, these millions of books, all of which she collected one by one through various means, including the top secret information of many top forces, including the Holy Sect, the effort is really immeasurable.
Even if Zhao Shenlu had memories of the Kyushu era in his previous life, this million-volume book collection was a heinous and terrifying job, and Zhao Shenlu sacrificed precious beauty time to do this kind of thing...... Although the purpose is not clearly stated, it can be led to a conclusion from the words of this million books.
Looking for Wang Jiu, looking for old friends.
From the moment Zhao Shenlu woke up from his resurrection, he was looking for his companion back then, and he never stopped for thirty-six years......
Then I found that the Outer Heaven Sword I had been looking for all my life was bought by a little girl with an intelligence index of 3.3 in the vegetable market.
At that moment, Zhao Shenlu's mood was so complicated that it was difficult to describe it in words.
On the bookshelf in the corner of the million-dollar library, in the encrypted diary, Zhao Shenlu recorded her mood that day in this way.
“???????????????”
The pitch-black ink covered the entire page, and the part after that page was directly torn up, and the cover of the diary had pitch-black scorch marks, as if it had been burned by fire, which shows the writer's psychological state at that time.
Seeing this, Wang Jiu has basically determined his judgment about Zhao Shenlu's mental illness, and when she comes back from her errands, he will start the treatment process for her as soon as possible.
However, she has been gone for too long, although she said that it would be good for a while, and from the moment she left, this "moment" has lasted for 1 day, 23 hours and 58 minutes.
Even according to the timekeeping method that she lived for 36 years at the age of 17, it would be too long.
After closing the diary, Wang Jiu decided not to wait any longer, left a note and prepared to leave, but at this moment, he heard a crackling sound.
Like a dry tree being lit by a wildfire, or like a glass pierced by rubble, it is not a simple sound wave that is perceived, but a distortion of space.
The breadth of perception of the Outer Heaven Divine Sword was far beyond that of ordinary people, and for him, time and space could be directly perceived like shapes and colors, so despite the silence around him, Wang Jiu had already lifted all his spirit, like a wild cat with hair on its feet.
Space distortion, in this closed library, is comparable to the collapse of the heavens and the earth, this kind of closed cave opened by the monk alone, like a lonely line, floating balloon, the spatial structure is stable and fragile, the periphery is like a crisp thin shell, once broken, like a kite broken line, immediately chaos poured back, no return. Even if the Outer Heaven Divine Sword is immortal and not afraid of the chaotic turbulence, but being trapped in chaos means that it will be difficult for him to return to Kyushu for at least a hundred years.
When Wang Jiu draws strength in the void, rebuilds the sword world and returns to Kyushu, except for Zhao Shenlu, who can maintain the age of 17, the rest of his friends are afraid that they will all enter the stage of middle and old age, and Shaohua will no longer ...... And the greater possibility is that the nature of chaos has changed again in these hundred years, adding more uncertainty to Wang Jiu's return. At that time, it is not even a matter of time before he can come back.
Therefore, when the sound of space shattering came into the sword world, Wang Jiu immediately took out the greatest concentration since awakening to deal with the crisis.
Although I don't know why this library, which was built by Zhao Shenlu and almost related to his life, suddenly collapsed, the problem now is, of course, survival first!
The sword world, which has been polished for nearly 1 year, is like a huge machine, running as a whole, making a deafening buzzing sound, concentrating towers, gathering spirit arrays, fingering demon swords, and slaying demon blades...... All the facilities merge into one and turn into a snow-white light.
In the next moment, thousands of sword lights bloomed from the snow-white sword body, turning into dense silk threads like a net, which instantly penetrated into every spatial crevice of this library, like an adhesive, gluing all the cracks together.
Steady.
This is Wang Jiu's first step in survival, and he must stabilize this space in order to have a chance to find the caliber of escape - this library is Zhao Shenlu's private secret, and it is her own top-secret archive, and the passage with the outside world is naturally not open, just like a password, it needs to be cracked.
And once this space is messed up, the difficulty of cracking the password will increase by a million times.
Wang Jiu immediately burst out the power of the Sword World, barely stabilizing the situation, and then immediately began to analyze the spatial structure of this place, looking for an emergency escape route. His analytical skills are extremely strong, and he has tried millions of ways to crack them in an instant.
However, none of them worked, and the gate to the Golden Jade City refused to open.
At this time, the disintegration of the space began to intensify further, hundreds of bookshelves collapsed one by one, the pages flew like butterflies, and the light and shadow in the library began to be chaotic and tangled, bursting out with creepy screams from time to time.
The situation is already precarious.
At this time, Wang Jiu finally found a clue in the fragments of space.
The collapse of the space is an established procedure arranged by Zhao Shenlu when he designed and built the cave mansion: if there is no confirmation from Zhao Shenlu for 48 consecutive hours, the self-destruction procedure will be initiated to ensure that all the secrets in the library will not be exposed.
From Zhao Shenlu to the present, it is indeed 48 hours.
"I see......"
In an instant, Wang Jiu felt that his eyes suddenly opened up.
Although the clues found from this fragment did not help Wang Jiu to crack Zhao Shenlu's channel password, it allowed him to find a shortcut to bypass the encryption.
The next moment, the illusion sword technique in the sword world was activated, forming an indescribable female figure, although it was only a hazy outline, it had already revealed a shocking infinite charm.
It is Zhao Shenlu's own appearance, every detail of his physical appearance and even his smile is the same as Zhao Shenlu.
As comrades-in-arms who shared life and death day and night, they were already very familiar with each other, not to mention that Wang Jiu had also rescued the seriously injured and dying Zhao Shenlu with the secret technique of many times, and he was even more familiar with her body than herself.
Therefore, it was easy to complete this level of simulation with phantom swordsmanship, although there were still slight differences between the true yuan fluctuation and the original god imprint and the deity, but it was enough to fool the library's identification program.
At the same time, the tremors of the library began to subside, and the force that distorted everything gradually weakened and even disappeared.
Although the entire cave has been riddled with holes, it finally has no tendency to worsen.
"It's finished."
The next moment, Wang Jiu lifted the illusion sword technique and began to take advantage of this rare respite to continue cracking the space code.
Ten minutes later, when the crumbling cave space finally couldn't bear the pressure and completely collapsed, Wang Jiu finally unlocked the password of this place.
“**”
Looking at the two simple and unpretentious handwritings, Wang Jiu felt a little dazed as if he was in another world.
It was the name he used a long time ago, when he was still a human being.
The name that even he himself was about to forget, he didn't expect it to appear here, and it was used as a password to clear the customs.
The daze only lasted for a moment, and Wang Jiu didn't waste his precious time, and immediately flew forward along the inconspicuous gap.
The next moment, the world behind him finally collapsed, and millions of books and pieces of paper remained.
And Wang Jiu appeared in a strange courtyard in a distortion of light.
Judging from the decoration style of this courtyard, it should be a wealthy family in the Golden Jade City, there is a pond in the courtyard, the pond is full of aura, nourishing all things, obviously from the master's handwriting, but also shows the identity of the owner of this place as an immortal cultivator - if it is a mortal, this aura is too rich, but harmful.
It was night, and candles were lit in the room, while the conversation of the host's house could be heard.
The male host sighed, and his sorrow overflowed: "Alas, I didn't expect that the city lord Yingming I would also fall to this fate, and was plotted by the closest personal maid. I don't know how I will be dealt with after being placed under house arrest this time. ”
The hostess was a little gloating: "If you want me to say, this is also her own fault, when she first came to power, she almost killed all the meritorious old people in the family, and treated the whole family as a waste." The heart of a single husband is bent on going his own way, and it is natural to have this end. ”
The man said: "However, with her achievements and prestige over the years, I'm afraid no one really dares to ask her to do anything, at most, she will maintain house arrest and confine her cultivation." ”
"That's not necessarily, with her ability, as long as she is alive, who of those people on the stage can sleep and close their eyes? It's me, and since I've done it, it's better to just don't do it than to be made back by her. ”
"If you really want to do that, I'm afraid it's going to set off a civil uprising."
"What do you call this, is it that the people are terrible, or is Zhao Shenlu terrible? And what are you trying to do for her? Forget who caused our political investment to lose all its money in the first place? ”
"At the beginning, I also looked away, I couldn't complain about others, and ...... I'm not speaking for her, I just think that these people are really inferior to her now that they are in power......"
Wang Jiu didn't listen to the next conversation.
Because the amount of information he needs is enough.
No wonder Zhao Shenlu lasted for two days for this "while", and almost killed himself in the library.
Unexpectedly, within these two days, there was a coup d'état in Jinyu City, and the city lord Zhao Shenlu was placed under house arrest.
