Star Trace Gate

Evening, Sunset Town.

The sun sets in the west, and the sky becomes desolate.

The glowing red glow covered the winding official road. A cavalry guard of a thousand men came in a mighty procession from the east, raising a cloud of dust.

"Uu——!"

When they reached the outskirts of the town, Fat Dragon pulled the reins, stopped his horse and looked forward. He saw smoke rising from the town, a peaceful and harmonious scene.

Beside him, Ren Ye looked at the town and asked softly, "What do you say, Brother Fat Dragon? Should we advance separately, or rush in together?"

The fat dragon pondered for a moment, then shook his head and replied: "A guard armor with a thousand people can't be hidden - Zheng Ningshan!"

"I am here!" The commander of a thousand households immediately clasped his fists and shouted.

"Divide your forces into 100 and search along both sides of the town. If you see a man dressed like a gangster or a magical person with unknown origin, use whistling arrows to report it." The Fat Dragon gave a clear instruction: "Yin Guang, you leave 20 spies at the entrance of the town. If you see someone fleeing, use whistling arrows to report it. The terrain of Sunset Town is like a pocket. If the spy Yan Guanfeng has ordered people to gather here, they will definitely not be able to hide. Let's seal the town first and then search."

"Yes!"

"I will obey your orders!"

Yin Guang and the thousand-household commander Zheng Ningshan clasped their fists in response.

"The rest of you, follow me and rush into the town to search." The fat dragon clamped his legs around the horse's belly and shouted softly, "Go!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he took the lead and rushed into the town.

After one horse, thousands of horses galloped forward, making a deafening sound of clattering on the ground. The entire official road was covered in dust, making it unclear.

……

After half a stick of incense.

In Sunset Town, a large group of cavalry were marching forward in a tight formation, but Fatty Dragon and others had a look of suspicion on their faces.

Before my eyes, the entire long street in the center of the town was filled with silence and the doors of every household were wide open, but not a single person was to be seen.

On both sides of the long street, the shops, stores, inns, taverns, and stalls of small vendors... were all empty.

Ren Ye was riding on the horse, frowning and looking around, he saw a tavern with many dishes and wine jugs placed on the tables, but some were only half eaten, and some had not yet been eaten.

The scene was too weird. The people in the entire town seemed to have disappeared from the face of the earth. Only the buildings and scenery remained. Time seemed to have stopped, frozen at dinner time in the evening.

"Something doesn't seem right here!"

As the sun set, the whole town was covered in red. Xu Bangzi felt a little stuffy and couldn't help but loosen his collar and said, "Damn... where are all the people?"

Not far away, the beloved concubine held the reins with one hand and raised her right arm with a serious face. She pinched the base of her other fingers with her thumb, then slowly raised her head and looked at the sky.

At some point, a dark cloud gathered over the town, and the afterglow of the setting sun penetrated the clouds, creating a blood-red scene.

"Such...such a strong evil spirit." She looked at the sky and murmured with a puzzled expression.

At the front of the team, the fat dragon frowned and said, "Divide 50 soldiers and search along the street and into the hospital. The others stay on standby."

"As ordered."

After the commander of the Qianhu, Zheng Ningshan, replied, he waved his hand and ordered, "Take your men and search quickly."

"Tap."

More than fifty soldiers stepped out, quickly dispersed, and began searching along the streets.

After a full stick of incense had passed, all the soldiers returned to the ranks, with strange looks on their faces.

"How is it? Did you find the person?" asked the fat dragon.

A soldier on horseback shook his head and replied with a stuttering voice: "Report... Report to Your Highness... There is no one in the town. But in the houses, some stoves are still burning, and some tables still have dinner on them... Some houses look a bit messy."

After hearing this, Fat Dragon was also a little scared and muttered: "This is really weird, where did all the people in this town go?!"

"Whoosh!"

At this moment, a sharp sound of breaking through the air rang out from the north.

Everyone looked up suddenly and saw a whistling arrow rising into the sky. It was obviously the soldier who had been searching separately earlier reporting the news.

The fat dragon pulled the reins and shouted, "Follow me to the place where the whistling arrows are launched into the sky, quickly!"

"drive!"

The scene in this town was too creepy, like a ghost town, and everyone wanted to leave as soon as possible.

On the long street, the sound of thousands of horses stampeding on the ground gradually covered up the deathly silence in the town.

Not long after.

The fat dragon led his troops out of the north town entrance, and after running forward for three miles, he saw a big pit in front of him.

It seemed like a huge naturally formed lake, but for some reason, the water in the lake suddenly dried up, and there was only endless mud and swamp on the shore, as well as more than a dozen stunned soldiers.

When the fat dragon saw the group of soldiers, he immediately shouted, "What are you guys standing there for?! Was it you who fired the whistling arrows?"

The shouts echoed in the wilderness, but the dozen or so soldiers did not respond at all. They just stared blankly at the huge pit of the dried-up lake.

"Damn it, His Highness is asking you a question, are you all deaf?!"

Zheng Ningshan roared angrily.

"what!!"

At this moment, a soldier on the shore let out a scream like a ghost, turned around and ran away.

He ran wildly in the mud, shouting like a mud monkey: "Ah! Ah! Bastard... Bastard!"

"Gudong!"

The soldier ran madly, but his feet got stuck in the mud, causing him to lose balance and fall into the swamp.

“Beast…beast…!”

When everyone saw this scene, they all looked at each other with serious expressions.

"brush!"

Then Ren also turned over and got off the horse, and the star source waves circulated throughout his body. In an instant, he was frozen in place.

When his figure appeared again, he was already standing on the shore.

Ren Ye looked at the scene in the pit. His brain buzzed and his face turned pale in an instant. His mouth opened slightly, but he could not make a sound.

"Whizzing……!"

Following closely behind, Fatty Dragon, Fenglin, Li Yan, Xu Bangzi, Aifei, Ding Jun and others all flew to the shore of the lake.

Everyone lowered their heads and looked into the big pit.

Under the blood-red setting sun, all that could be seen were countless shriveled corpses, densely packed together.

There are elderly people, women and children; men in their prime, young men who have not yet become heads of the family; and girls who are waiting to be married... everything is available.

The corpses were piled up in all directions, almost filling up the bottom of the pit, and were at least ten meters high.

These corpses were extremely shriveled, with cracked skin, as if someone had drained their blood and spirit and left them exposed to the sun for dozens of days.

They were thrown into the pit like animals, with expressions of fear on their faces or hatred in their eyes... Just a slight breeze would seem like they would be blown away into dust.

The lake was silent and everyone felt their scalps tingling and their bodies trembling.

This is a mass grave...

No, it was a mass grave of tens of thousands of people. All the people in Sunset Town were lying here at the moment.

Ren Ye stared at the pit with dull eyes. His gaze gradually focused and he saw a bright red color on the pile of corpses.

It was a flower, the red flower that was a specialty of this town.

It was inserted in the bun of a girl who was less than ten years old, and seemed to be blooming quietly.

The people here are poor, and the clothes they wear are all similar, all made of extremely gray linen.

At this moment, only the red flower was exceptionally eye-catching and gorgeous, lighting up the gray with only a faint red light...

"Boom!"

A very cold wind blew by.

The dark clouds in the sky became thicker and there was thunder.

The setting sun was blood-red, and the sad wind blew across the pit...

"brush!"

A crystal snowflake swayed down from the sky and slowly fell into the pit.

Unconsciously, the first autumn snow of the upcoming winter began to fall from the sky.

"Gudong!"

Yin Guang knelt on the ground, his whole body limp, tears streaming from his blank eyes. He kowtowed in deep regret towards the people in the pit: "I... I'm late, late... I'm sorry, everyone, I'm late...!"

"Boom...!"

He pounded his head on the ground frantically, his fists clenched so tightly that his nails pierced his skin.

The informant said that the anxious supernatural masters who were watching the wind gathered here, and what they saw when they arrived was that the town was empty and tens of thousands of people were buried in pits.

Without having to think too much, you know who did it.

Yin Guang accepted the order and chased the enemy all the way from Kyoto to Zhangzhou, and from Zhangzhou to Sunset Town, without daring to delay for a moment.

But he was still a step too late. Seeing the tens of thousands of people dying in the pit, he felt extremely guilty and his emotions completely collapsed...

"boom!"

Just as everyone was stunned, a burst of black light suddenly shone from the mountain just north of the big pit.

"brush!"

A spiritual flag slowly rose up, as black as iron, emitting a thick black aura, and there were faint roars of resentful ghosts.

Everyone suddenly looked up and looked towards the middle of the mountain.

A middle-aged man walked up to the edge of the cliff with his hands behind his back, looking down at Ren Ye, Fatty Long and others.

He had a jade-like face and was extremely elegant, but his eyes were too cold: "Long time no see! Big Fat Dragon, Master Buddha!"

The shouts drifted away, and everyone slowly came back to their senses.

Under the setting sun, Han Chan stood on the cliff, slowly raised her hand, pointed at the huge pit of tens of thousands of people, and whispered: "Big Fat Dragon, I will lend you the people of Southern Border to practice my soul flag and make my blood pill! What do you think?!!"

The fat dragon stared at him in a daze, his throat seemed to be blocked and he couldn't make a sound.

Han Chan glanced at everyone and slowly stopped her gaze on Ren Ye, whose aura was rising to the highest point. "His luck is revealed. Haha, what a coincidence today. Two dragons are here together!"

"Well then! Let's use the big pit to kill the two dragons!!"

Han Chan slowly raised his arms and shouted: "The wind in southern Xinjiang has suddenly risen at this moment!!"

"Whoosh whoosh...!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a large number of people with magical powers poured out from the mountains!

"Boom!!"

A shocking purple air rushed out from the fat dragon's body, rising to the top and shattering the red color.

He looked up at the cliff and shouted, "I swear here! If I don't destroy Daqian in my lifetime, I will never be reborn!!"
