Chapter 588 City of Reality and Illusion

After the turmoil in the lake subsided, everyone calmed down and headed towards the ancient city in the distance along the shore of the lake.

The lake is on the west side of the basin, and the ancient city is on the east side. It is necessary to bypass the entire lake to reach the destination, and the journey is about 30 kilometers.

The moon and stars were scarce in the sky, and there was silence in the basin, except for the footsteps of everyone, hardly any other sounds could be heard.

Not long after walking, Jack discovered the problem.

"Mr. Ji, you said that this basin is under the dragon's roof, and it is a place full of vitality, but why are there no birds and beasts here?"

Apart from the school of fish and the spotted jellyfish in the lake, they didn't see any other animals along the way, which was obviously abnormal.

The fat man said immediately.

"It's the middle of the night. Maybe the animals are sleeping."

Jack shook his head.

"There are many animals in nature that are nocturnal. Such a large basin is also a place full of vitality. It is obviously impossible that there is not even a diurnal animal!"

After thinking about it innocently, she said.

"This is the base camp of the Demon Kingdom. Those people are acting strangely. I guess it has something to do with them."

Everyone couldn't think of any other reason, and they could only attribute it to the people of the Demon Kingdom.

At this time, Hu Bayi asked curiously.

"Mr. Ji, the message left by the ghost mother said that the city is stuck in the gap of time. What does it mean?"

Ji Changsheng was thinking about something with his head down, and when he heard the question, he raised his head and smiled.

"When you get there in a while, you will know."

Everyone has long been accustomed to his unfathomable inscrutability, so they didn't continue to ask questions, but were full of curiosity about the mysterious ancient city.

The only thing that makes people feel gratified is that the climate in this basin is much warmer than that of Shenluogou, with the temperature around [-] degrees.

The moonlight is bright and the breeze is gentle.

After more than two hours, everyone has arrived at the foot of the ancient city.

The ancient city is located on a hillside, surrounded by dense houses, like a huge beehive.

Looking up, I saw that the ancient city was brightly lit, and there were still many houses emitting faint smoke, which looked very lively.

But there was no sound in the city, except for the occasional wind, there was only a dead silence.

Ah Xiang paled and hid behind the crowd, Xue Liyang hurriedly took her hand and comforted her.

"Don't be afraid, it's just an empty city with no one in it."

Although she said so, her heart was beating drums, because the scene in front of her was really weird.

Standing on the city gate in front of them, there was a black flag flying in the wind. An eyeball-shaped totem was embroidered on the flag, which should be the eye of the snake god.

There are hundreds of lampstands on the city tower, and the copper plate on the lampstands is burning with flames, illuminating the vicinity of the city gate.

The city gate was wide open, but no one could be seen.

Wang Kaixuan couldn't help saying.

"There is only one Zhuge Liang and two boys missing from the city gate, which is the real version of the empty city plan."

After the fat man looked at it carefully, he said with a puzzled face.

"Judging by the size of the copper plate, the lamp oil inside can only last for three hours. Who keeps changing the lamp oil to keep the lamp alive?"

When Hu Bayi walked to the city gate, he saw a notice posted on the gate, all written in ancient Tibetan, and he didn't know a single word.

Lama Tiebang took a look and said.

"It's a notice issued by the priest of the Demon Kingdom, about a certain important sacrifice."

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to touch the notice, his finger was covered with black ink, it was clearly written just now!

Could it be that there are really people from the Devil Kingdom alive in this city! ?

Everyone looked at this weird scene, and they couldn't help but panic.

Ji Changsheng smiled indifferently, and walked towards the city.

"Why are you standing still, go in and have a look."

If it weren't for him as a god-man sitting in the town, others might not have the guts to rush in.

After everyone entered the city gate, they saw a wide street leading directly to the highest point of the hillside, with many forks along the way, criss-crossing.

On both sides of the cobweb-like road, there are low houses.

These houses are similar to cave dwellings in Shaanxi. They are all built against the mountains, but there are a huge number of them, tens of thousands of them.

Most houses are only one or two stories high, and a few have three or four stories.

Walking on the old streets, people can see that the exterior walls of these houses are very new, and the walls have not fallen off, and there is no moss growing.

Every street and every house is very clean, spotless, as if it has just been cleaned, and there is no rubbish in sight.

Moreover, the lights were on in every house, but there was no one there. Under the shadow of lights and candles swaying in the wind, the atmosphere became even more weird.

After walking for a while, the fat man couldn't bear it anymore and said.

"Mr. Ji, I think there must be living people in this city, but they are all hiding, right?"

Before Ji Changsheng answered, Wuxie shook his head and said.

"No, I don't think so."

The fat man pointed to those houses and asked.

"Then how do you explain the lights, and the cleanliness of the houses and streets?"

Wu Xie replied seriously.

"Because it's so clean, it doesn't look like a place where living people have stayed. Even if you clean it every day, it won't be so clean!"

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and pointed to those houses.

"Any house will have some old traces after being exposed to wind and sun, but these houses seem to have just been built, without even a trace!"

"It feels like...fake to me!"

The fat man was taken aback, and asked with a puzzled face.

"Fake? Are you saying these are hallucinations?"

With that said, he stepped forward and punched the wall hard.

With a punch, the wall suddenly burst, leaving a deep dent, and the loess inside could be clearly seen. This is a real house, not an illusion!

The fat man turned around.

"See, this is not an illusion, nor is it a movie prop. It is real. How do you explain it?"

Wu Xie frowned and shook his head.

"I don't know, anyway, it doesn't feel real to me..."

At this moment, everyone suddenly smelled a smell of meat. The smell wafted from the house behind the wall. It was the smell of boiled beef.

I swallowed my saliva on the first day of junior high school, and immediately felt a little hungry.

"It's yak meat, someone is cooking!"

Hearing this, the fat man immediately picked up his gun, kicked open the door, and broke in.

"It doesn't matter if it's a human or a ghost, don't hide, come out for the fat man!"

Everyone followed him in and saw that the yard was empty, not even a hair could be seen.

Following the scent to the kitchen in the back room, I saw some shredded beef and a fresh beef thigh on the chopping board.

There was steaming heat in a large pot on the stove, and the aroma was tangy.

The fat man lifted the lid of the pot and saw a pot of delicious beef.

Everyone had been hungry for a long time, and under the rumbling stomach, no one dared to do it.

Lie stepped forward indifferently, picked up a piece of beef and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Yeah, delicious!"
