Chapter 752: Using Falsehood to Ask the Truth
Zhang Zhiwen was a little confused. What was going on in this safe place? Before Zhang Wensheng appeared, hadn't he been moving forward step by step in the surface world?
Another thing, what happened in the village at that time, it was his soul that finally found the Mountain King's lair after leaving his body. Thinking of this, Zhang Zhiwen suddenly realized something. That's right, it seemed that he found the Mountain King after his soul left his body. This is the lair of monsters in the other world, but this lair of monsters in the other world seems to be related to the villagers, which means that this so-called level is not what Zhang Zhiwen saw.
In fact, the Mountain King's lair is just a false realm in the superficial world. Zhang Zhiwen seems to have no idea what the real Wangfengling is like. He passed the Wangfengling level in a daze.
Later, he came out of Wangfengling, went all the way north, and then came to the Ding River Valley. He knew the inner world of the Ding River Valley clearly, and then when he switched back to the outer world, he saw a huge city. The city seemed like a maze, and he couldn't get out of the city.
This has the same effect as crossing the river. So if you break through the level, regardless of the inner world or the outer world, the actual effect is almost the same.
Zhang Zhiwen gradually found some clues. He had to find a safe place so that he could smoothly improve his soul and successfully break through the secret realm.
If the effects of the inner world and the outer world are the same, then when we met the Mountain King's lair, Zhang Zhiwen was actually asked to kill those monsters and rush out of the lair. The number of monsters there was really amazing...
Then after he came out, the village he encountered and the monsters he met seemed to be similar to those in the other world. They were also a group of monsters singing and watching a big show. In essence, they seemed to be similar. Then he killed the monsters instead of hiding. He entered some safe place before leaving Wangfengling's sphere of influence.
Zhang Zhiwen thought about it, but still couldn't find a relatively certain answer. This safe place is indeed not easy to find, but it definitely exists. This kind of safe place should exist in every level.
This so-called safe place is actually a loophole in the secret realm. There are loopholes in any secret realm, and this eighteenth-level secret realm is naturally no exception. After all, this is something that appears the day after tomorrow, and was not born when the world first opened.
Zhang Zhiwen's memories go further back. At that time, he just came to the secret realm and didn't know anything. He met Chen Jifeng and his daughter, spent the night in the temple, and then headed all the way to Wangfengling.
During this process, I met Qingyao, and an inn appeared...
Suddenly, Zhang Zhiwen had a slight feeling. Could it be that the inn in the surface world was a safe place? This kind of hidden thing was very likely to exist, and he would encounter the inn almost every time.
As long as he is in the inn, the dangers in the other world will stay away from him. This seems to be the result of the reincarnated Taoist spirit leading him to a safe place long ago, but he just never discovered this?
Zhang Zhiwen doesn’t know if this is the case, but if so, it would be a major discovery.
Thinking of this, he felt more and more that the inn in the outer world should be the loophole of the secret realm, that is, a safe place, but no one could see it. Even Zhang Zhiwen needed to think carefully before he could remember it.
Therefore, this safe place in the secret realm is still extremely difficult to discover, but Zhang Zhiwen seems to have discovered this now.
Since he felt that the inn should be a safe place, Zhang Zhiwen didn't think much about it, and he directly cut back to the realm of illusion.
If he wants to break through the Red River Corridor, he must find the next inn.
Otherwise, the increase in demon power he can get in this inn has reached its limit. If he wants to break through the ancient demon soul soul, he must continue to move forward.
Soon, Zhang Zhiwen returned to the Honghe Inn. He was meditating in the room. Nothing seemed to have changed.
He stood up and came to the window. He opened the window and looked outside. Outside was Red River City. This was an illusionary realm of the world, and the scenery that appeared was naturally false. Don't look at the brightly lit lights of thousands of houses here. It seems that there is no danger, but in fact Zhang Zhiwen knows that it is dangerous here.
If he takes another step forward, he will probably fall into the red river of lava in the abyss, and then there will be very shocking difficulties waiting for him. He will probably be trapped and die in the predicament. This is It is the result of drifting with the current in the red river of the other world and eventually being submerged.
This is when Zhang Zhiwen has begun to gradually understand the entire operation of the secret realm. This is him. Other Yuanying masters actually don’t know these things at all. In the eyes of Yuanying masters, there is nothing so-called illusion, everything is in the inner world. Something real.
Zhang Zhiwen has one more surface world than them, which is equivalent to one more secret realm for him. However, this is not the point at the moment. The point is that Zhang Zhiwen has to find the next inn now, otherwise he will be trapped in this inn for the rest of his life.
If he goes out now, the guards will definitely come to chase him. Zhang Zhiwen thought, could this guard be a monster in the Red River? Or something else? Or is it just some kind of flame imp?
Zhang Zhiwen was not sure about this, but when he first arrived, he did encounter guards blocking him, and the location was not the Red River Corridor, but the Dinghe River.
That is to say, the entire city he sees now is not static.
This secret realm is really powerful and will keep changing. When he first came here, didn't he encounter a maze-like city? He thought it was the Red River City, but it wasn't. At that time, the city was still a transformation of Dinghe.
Then he would get lost in Dinghe and be constantly teleported back to the original place, which was the location of the ferry.
After the ferry was transformed, the form it appeared in was completely different. Maybe it was the city gate, maybe it was a temple. Anyway, it's hard to say. It changes all the time, which makes people completely confused.
The only inn that could be a safe place is the place where Zhang Zhiwen has a chance to survive, and the inn doesn't seem to change much. In other words, this inn is the transformation of the safe place in the inner world, and it is the only unchanging transformation in the surface world of this secret realm.
Of course, this is Zhang Zhiwen's guess. He doesn't know if this is the case. He wants to try it. Anyway, it will definitely not work if he doesn't try it.
So, Zhang Zhiwen looked out through the window at the outside world, he wanted to find the location of the next inn.
But this city is extremely huge, looking around, there are many inns, is every inn a safe place?
Zhang Zhiwen felt a little hesitant, this should be unlikely to happen, otherwise this safe place would be too easy to find, right?
Just when Zhang Zhiwen was a little hesitant, the waiter Lin Qingshu came, this is to bring some food to Zhang Zhiwen.
Zhang Zhiwen went to open the door.
"Sir, you haven't slept yet?"
Lin Qingshu stood at the door, holding a stack of food, and there was a pot of wine on it. He looked at Zhang Zhiwen and smiled gently.
Zhang Zhiwen knew that this was just a false thing that the secret realm sensed Lin Qingshu in his memory and turned into.
But Zhang Zhiwen still nodded to Lin Qingshu, and then took it.
"Sir, if you need anything else, just tell me."
Lin Qingshu said again.
Zhang Zhiwen had some thoughts when he heard this. He couldn't help but ask: "Brother, do you know if there are any other inns besides yours?"
Although asking this imaginary person is not very useful, Zhang Zhiwen feels that he should still ask, just in case this imaginary person can really answer him something?
"Oh, you mean Tianhai Inn?"
Lin Qingshu actually knew what the next inn was, Zhang Zhiwen was very surprised.
Is Lin Qingshu still alive? Or is the secret realm really so magical? Let a false person know a safe place?
Zhang Zhiwen didn't know how to explain this situation, but since Lin Qingshu said so, he naturally continued: "This is not right, I saw a lot of inns outside, why did you tell me about Tianhai Inn?"
"Hey, guest, you may not know something, right? I told you that you saw so many inns, that's because those inns are all black shops, guest, don't go in, otherwise it will be miserable."
Lin Qingshu said, his expression was very natural, and he didn't look like a false person at all.
Zhang Zhiwen stared at Lin Qingshu for a long time. He felt that this was definitely a person he made up, but this fictional person was produced by the karma brought by his reincarnated soul.
Yes, the people and things he saw were all produced under the traction of karma. Although they were virtual people, karma penetrated the virtual and the real, and still made these virtual people say the truth.
This is really amazing and mysterious. Zhang Zhiwen was quite shocked. He didn't expect this reincarnated soul to be so powerful, and the meaning of Lin Qingshu's words to him was extremely different.
Of course, Zhang Zhiwen still needs further verification, otherwise, based on Lin Qingshu's words alone, he cannot be sure whether this is the effect brought by the reincarnated Dao soul.
In this way, he thanked Lin Qingshu, and Lin Qingshu left.
Zhang Zhiwen returned to the house, put the wine away, and then he got up and left the room.
After coming out, Zhang Zhiwen saw that there were still many guests in the inn. There were people drinking and playing rock-paper-scissors downstairs, which was quite lively. There were also many people coming and going in the corridor upstairs, and they seemed to be busy making friends.
I don't know why these vain people brought by his reincarnated Dao soul are like this. Zhang Zhiwen is actually very interested in the cause and effect karma brought by the reincarnated Dao soul, but now is not a good time to study these.
He soon met a person of nothingness who was coming towards him. He stopped him slightly, and the other party was obviously a little surprised, but Zhang Zhiwen quickly clasped his fists and said to him: "Brother, excuse me, I want to ask you something."
"What is it?"
The man looked at Zhang Zhiwen vigilantly, because he didn't know him, so he was on guard. Could this also be the result of the reincarnation of the Dao soul?
But this result was very natural and very consistent with the real situation. Zhang Zhiwen felt something again. Obviously, since he knew the cause and effect karma brought by the reincarnation of the Dao soul, coupled with his little enlightenment now, he found this matter more and more interesting.
He seemed to look down on all this from a third person's perspective. This was the power that only gods had, but he was like this now. He looked at the person of nothingness in front of him who was created by his reincarnation of the Dao soul as if he was standing outside of it.
He smiled slightly, and then said: "Oh, that's right. I would like to know if there are any other inns nearby?"
"No!"
The man shook his head without hesitation.
Zhang Zhiwen couldn't help but frown slightly, what does this mean? Didn’t Lin Qingshu just say that there was?
"Really not?"
Zhang Zhiwen couldn't help but ask again.
"Really not..."
Seeing that Zhang Zhiwen didn't believe it, the man added, "Of course, if you have to say there are, there are many inns, but be careful, they are all black-hearted inns, they are all black shops, that's how you go in! ... "
The man also made a motion of cutting his neck.
The expression looked like he had seen the tricks of those black shops before, and there was something superficial and intimidating about it.
Zhang Zhiwen was stunned. Isn't this the same as what Lin Qingshu said?
Then why did this man say there were no inns nearby?
Thinking of this, Zhang Zhiwen quickly asked: "Then do you know Haitian Inn?"
The man was stunned for a moment, and then he couldn't help but said impatiently: "Oh, you already know, what are you asking me for? Tsk, you are really boring, go, don't block me, I have something else to do... …”
After the man finished speaking, he pushed Zhang Zhiwen away and left.
Zhang Zhiwen was a little stunned, what is this? Didn't he just say that there was no inn nearby...
Thinking of this, Zhang Zhiwen suddenly realized something was wrong. This person said that there were no inns nearby, but that didn't mean that the Haitian Inn was nearby. What if the Haitian Inn was far away?
Even if it's not very far away, it shouldn't be considered nearby. Otherwise, if the inn is too far away, Lin Qingshu wouldn't have to introduce it to Zhang Zhiwen.
So, is this Haitian Inn a safe place?
Zhang Zhiwen felt that this matter was almost correct, but he felt that he still had to ask about the situation. He had always done things like this, and he had to be very sure. Otherwise, he would only take risks when he had no choice. of.
Nowadays, he is not in a hurry. He naturally wants to figure things out, especially this Haitian Inn. If he has to ask clearly, even how to get there, how to arrive safely, he will ask clearly. Chu, clearly.
Anyway, these nihilistic people are all produced by his reincarnated soul, which is equivalent to a concrete manifestation of the reincarnated soul. He can fully rely on this method to understand cause and effect.
But Zhang Zhiwen actually didn't realize that he had gradually embarked on the path of Yuanying Dharma. At least in terms of understanding, he had reached this level step by step.
By asking the truth from the imaginary, wouldn’t it be possible to see through the illusory and reach the true state?
