Chapter 42 Come to the Alienated World (2/2)

This cave was very large, no less than the Black Tiger Cave. Hundreds of soldiers were guarding there. They were on their own duties and well-organized.

Getting to the outside of Tongtian Hole, Zhang Yunyan took a few deep breaths, feeling fresh and pleasant.

Looking at the blue sky and white clouds, she felt the sky was even bluer and the clouds were even purer. Blue sky, white clouds, mountains, forests, rivers, birds, and beasts... everything was fine.

This was the land thousands of years ago. Zhang Yunyan was both excited and surprised. She was also amazed at this magical journey.

Here, mountains surrounded, forests dense, mountains and rocks standing, ancient trees towering, all of these formed a rare forest in the mountains.

Zhang Yunyan looked around and felt nothing abnormal. She thought those mountains and forests were not different from her own era.

The location of Tongtian Hole was also nothing special to compare with the surrounding forests. It hid secretly and was difficult to find.

Zhang Yunyan murmured, ”Although it's an important place of this country, it seems not to be different from the surrounding area. It is very secret.”

Xiao Tianlong left his hometown for more than three years. Now, he saw the mountains and rivers of the motherland. He felt affectionate and his face was full of infatuation.

He looked around while talking, ”Yes, such an important place could not be exposed and must be strictly guarded. Within a few dozen miles, there are still many soldiers who are secretly guarding all the time. They will not allow any outsider to come inside.”

Zhang Yunyan was surprised again. She did not find the hidden soldiers in the inspection. She secretly admired that the defense here was so strict that she could not see any signs. The imperial master was really an expert at army arrangement.

Looking at the sun in the west, she asked, ”Imperial master, how far is it from the capital of Tianyue Country? How long will it take?”

Xiao Tianlong answered, ”It's not too far. We can arrive there by carriage for more than two hours.”

The imperial master ordered the guards to arrange a carriage for them and simply asked about the domestic situation. It said that the country was secure and peaceful for these few years. His anxiety was eased.

He took a few words and then left with Zhang Yunyan and others.

On the way, Zhang Yunyan remembered Iron Egg and the first prince who still stayed at the Black Tiger Cave. She was deeply anxious and sighed from time to time.

She was puzzled. Why did Xiao Tianlong and the first prince come to her era? With such extraordinary skills, how could they be caught by Black Killer and experienced such an unfortunate period?

Yunyan thought again and again and still asked about this matter. She realized the truth after the imperial master's explanation.

...

Xiao Tianlong told Zhang Yunyan that three years ago, he wanted to ride the Tongtian Precious Carriage alone after it was successfully created.

This carriage was just created out and it was the first time to be activated. He hoped to see how it worked and how effective it was, so he could understand and master this precious treasure better.

In addition, he wanted to go to the future era to search for treasures. If possible, he could have some chances to learn some magical skills and improve his ability, so that he could serve the country in a better way.

Hearing this, the first prince gained great interest. He also hoped to experience this unprecedented and magical travel by himself and the magical power of the national treasure, to see what the future world looked like.

In order to go with the imperial master, he tried his best to persuade the queen and the king and also pleaded with the imperial master. He insisted to go with him and finally made it.

Before leaving, the king and the queen had been sending the two to Tongtian Hole and said goodbye with tears. They hoped that everything would be fine and they could come back soon. They also had deep worries and hopes.

Although Tongtian Precious Carriage was magical, it was the first time for them to ride it. Nobody could make sure it was safe.

The monarch and the ministers did not know whether there would be an accident and always worried about the safety of the two. They prayed for a safe return.

In order to prevent dangers, Xiao Tianlong and the first prince took another national treasure with them, the soul-absorbing vase.

They boarded on Tongtian Precious Carriage and made a final inspection. Then, they turned the control button and randomly select a future time and space. In the end, they arrived at Zhang Yunyan's era.

The Tongtian Precious Carriage was running smoothly. The place they have chosen was right the place where Black Killer's cave located.

Three years ago, the complex cave was still a deserted place. Nobody was there and it was not a cave of a monster, and even Black Killer was not there.

Xiao Tianlong and the first prince saw the cave was wide and huge, while this place was deserted. It was really a good place for them to hide. They were satisfied and decided to live there.

Since then, the two considered this place as their home in this era. They would always go out for observing the situations, experiencing the folk customs, and meeting the experts with extraordinary skills. They hoped to gain something useful.
