Chapter 640: Thirty Years Like a Dream (VIII)
Stand at the thirty-six hexagram positions, facing the fifty-two hexagram positions, and the formation can be broken.
Obviously, this sentence means standing at the thirty-six hexagram positions outside the formation, facing the direction of the fifty-two hexagrams, and the corresponding route is the "true road".
But aren't the sixty-four hexagrams in the Book of Changes something from Taoism? How come this witchcraft formation also came from this? Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and Wei Changtian frowned and turned to look at Su Xiu, whose face was pale.
Although the latter was unable to move, his Lianquan acupoint was not blocked, so he was able to speak just now.
And since she has revealed the method to break the formation, what, has she turned evil?
Finally saw through the nature of Yan Huanwen as a scumbag, so he wanted to use his own hands to take revenge? Wei Changtian did not question Su Xiu whether these were true or false.
After all, if she wanted to lie to me on purpose, there was nothing I could ask her.
Therefore, the key is whether you believe it or not.
“.”
Retracting his gaze and thinking quickly for a moment, Wei Changtian quickly made a decision -
Still have to give it a try.
Anyway, I have just tested it, this formation is just an illusion with defensive properties.
And since the formation itself has no lethality, the danger only comes from the man in black hiding in the formation.
In this case, if what Su Xiu said was false, the result would at most be the same as before, and the formation would not be broken.
Besides, she would not tell such a lie that would be known to be true or false after a try . Thinking of this, Wei Changtian quickly stood at the thirty-six hexagrams position at the edge of the black fog.
The sixty-four hexagrams in the Book of Changes represent sixty-four directions, which are difficult for ordinary people to find accurately.
However, it is not difficult for those who practice cultivation.
"Changtian, be careful."
One step behind him, Wei Zhaohai and the other three were also in position.
"Um."
Wei Changtian nodded without hesitation, and immediately stepped into the black fog in the direction of the fifty-two hexagrams.
The fog submerged his figure like a quagmire, followed by Wei Zhaohai, Yu Qi, Zuo Huiyu and Li Huaizhong.
In less than a breath of time, the five people entered the black fog for the sixth time.
But this time. "Hmm?"
Ten or so breaths later, when Wei Zhaohai came out from the other side of the black fog with a frown on his face, but did not see Wei Changtian, his face immediately became gloomy.
"boom!!"
The rocks under his feet collapsed, and he flashed to Su Xiu's side in a flash, then grabbed the latter's neck and lifted her up in the air, his face filled with extreme rage.
"Evil beast!!"
"You are so brave!!!"
“.”
Five people went in, four came out, and only Wei Changtian, who entered the battle first, disappeared.
From a certain perspective, Su Xiu did not lie.
After all, since Wei Changtian didn't come out, it meant that he had indeed "broken the formation". He must have come face to face with Yan Huanwen and others at this time.
However, Wei Zhaohai and his four companions who took the same route failed to break the formation, which undoubtedly meant that Su Xiu deliberately concealed something.
Therefore, how could Wei Zhaohai remain calm? If he didn't know clearly that Su Xiu could not die yet, he would have slapped her to death.
"explain!"
Seeing that Su Xiu's face had turned pale due to suffocation, Wei Zhaohai finally let go and threw her to the ground, but his tone was still extremely cold.
He stared at Su Xiu, who was lying on the ground gasping for breath, as if he was looking at a dead person, and asked word by word: "Why can't we enter the formation?!"
“.”
"Cough! Cough cough cough!"
"Because, because this formation is called Three Thousand Forked Paths, among which there is only one true path."
"And this true road will change direction once you walk on it."
Raising her head with difficulty, Su Xiu did not hide anything and quickly gave the answer with a smile.
However, both what she said and her expression at the moment made everyone feel cold.
Three thousand forked roads, the true road will change once you walk it once No wonder Wei Changtian was the only one who succeeded in breaking the formation.
It turned out that the moment Wei Changtian entered the formation, "36 hexagrams to 52 hexagrams" was no longer the true path.
"Where is the real road now?!"
The old voice came from Zuo Huiyu. She stopped Wei Zhaohai, who was furious and ready to kill Su Xiu at any time, and said to Su Xiu:
"Demon King, I have never lied in my life."
"As long as you tell me the changes in the true path, I promise to let you go after rescuing Master Wei!"
“.”
Glancing at Zuo Huiyu, Su Xiu's expression looked quite creepy.
She shook her head with a half-smile, and her voice sounded like a madman.
"Hehe, I don't know."
"have no idea?"
Zuo Huiyu's face darkened, realizing that Su Xiu was determined to kill Wei Changtian.
After all, since the latter can tell the first true path, it means that he must understand this formation and must know the changing rules of the true path.
In addition, she had just intentionally concealed the key information that "the true road can only be taken once". It was obvious that Su Xiu's purpose was to trick Wei Changtian into entering the battle alone, and then die in the hands of those men in black!
"bass!"
“Rub, rub, rub!!”
In an instant, Zuo Huiyu, Yu Qi and Li Huaizhong disappeared from the spot and headed straight towards the black fog.
The three of them were not ordinary people. When they saw Su Xiu's expression, they knew that there was no way she could tell them the real way.
So the only way now is to try one by one.
Starting from the sixty-four hexagrams, each hexagram can face sixty-three directions for a total of four thousand and thirty-two combinations.
Among these, there is only one way to enter the battle again.
If you go through the black fog at the fastest speed, it will take about three breaths.
This means that every three breaths, three people can try three routes.
Then it would take about four thousand breaths, or more than half an hour, to try all four thousand routes.
Of course, in actual situations, you don’t have to try all of them.
But even if you find the true path after trying halfway, it will still take quarter of an hour.
Two quarters of an hour. Not to mention whether Wei Changtian could hold out for so long against two second-grade and five third-grade warriors alone.
Even if they could, only one more person could go in after quarter of an hour, and their side would still be at a disadvantage.
Thinking about it this way, the probability of rescuing Wei Changtian seems to be very slim.
However, at this moment, everyone had no other choice but to try their best.
"You beast, you are very good."
"After tonight, I will let you know what it means to live a life worse than death."
After being extremely angry, Wei Zhaohai's expression suddenly became calm.
However, the eerie feeling hidden beneath this calmness made the air around them suddenly become bone-chilling.
After he said this, he no longer cared about Su Xiu. He turned around and tried to find the true path with Zuo Huiyu and the other two.
At this moment, Yang Liushi, who had been silent all the time, finally came to Su Xiu.
"Demon King, I wonder what we should do in order for you to tell me?"
"Don't worry, we will agree to whatever conditions you put forward."
The night breeze blew gently, ruffling Yang Liushi's long hair.
Although her tone sounded calm, her pale face could not hide her current mood.
"Chuckle, chuckle."
On the other side, Su Xiu, who was still kneeling on the ground, looked up at Yang Liushi, her laughter full of sarcasm.
"Miss Liu, is this your attitude when asking for help?"
“.”
“Plop!”
Without any hesitation, Yang Liushi immediately bent her knees and knelt in front of Su Xiu after hearing that.
The long skirt spread out at her knees, like a peony covered in mud.
"Demon King."
Looking at Su Xiu who seemed a little surprised, Yang Liushi lowered her head little by little until her forehead touched the ground and her long hair scattered in the mud.
"My life in exchange for his."
"Is it okay?"
