Into the modern comprehension

Sui Erqi and Wu Yiju didn't notice any smell on their bodies, and it was a little strange to be asked such a question by a dog, but it wouldn't be surprising to say that there was nothing suspicious at all.

Sui Erqi listened to the bizarre gossip about Gujing while wandering around, while Wu Yi inexplicably felt hot in the examination room.

After hearing this, Yang Jie went around in circles in the yard, accompanied by the lightning on its back, but after walking around for a while, he still couldn't figure out where the smell came from.

"I have gnawed on that pendant before. The material is not made of gold or stone. It can make the female ghost angry, and it should also make Jia Anxin, who has been wearing it, even more tyrannical. This is what Wu Yi said in the examination room. It’s because of the heat. I think this thing is haunted around Wang Gong’s factory. You didn’t see the aura because you didn’t meet the right owner. I also learned about the origin of this necklace from Jia Anxin, but it’s a pity that she sold it from a small stall. I can’t find out where the object came from. I think it’s necessary to go to Wang Gong’s factory in the afternoon.”

So, the exam this afternoon turned into sending Wu Yi to the exam with one person, one dog and one cat.It's just that Lightning has been in a state of explosion since it arrived at the Wang Gongchang area.If it is said that Sui Erqi and Wu Yi came back with some smell, the smell on the ground of Wang Gongchang would be much stronger.

Lightning made whining noises continuously, and its body was about to bow into a ball. It didn't feel that Sui Erqi was scary at this time. In comparison, Sui Erqi was at least stronger than it, and could resist the dispersal in the air. in the smell.I don't know if it's because of the spiritual energy, but Lightning is a bit timid, but he is smarter than ordinary cats.At this time, it gave up Yang Jie, who was smaller, and fell in love with Sui Erqi who could hold it, so it burrowed into his arms.

Sui Erqi doesn't know how to coax cats, and Lightning keeps trying to get into his shirt. If it was Mu Kun, that stupid bird would have been thrown out by Sui Erqi, but he met Lightning's eyes that were about to cry , Sui Erqi still endured the feeling of the cat's fur clinging to him.

"Hey, I'm not afraid of lightning." Sui Erqi touched Lightning's fur, he didn't feel anything wrong with the smell around him, and he didn't know what the cat and dog felt.

Yang Jie walked in front, and walked around the area with strong atmosphere in Wang Gongchang. Of course, he also took a look at the legendary well where strange things happened.This investigation really seemed to be wandering around, but after all, Yang Jie was an old dog demon, and he still saw things that ordinary monks couldn't see.

"The taste can be strong or light. The strong one only appeared in the past few years, and the weak one is hard to say. It may have appeared hundreds of years ago."

Hearing this, Sui Erqi felt that this matter was a little cloudy, there was a smell hundreds of years ago, what would it be left behind?The capital city has been built for hundreds of years, but the houses and roads have been renovated, and the old things can be counted with both hands, but Yang Jie said that it is not the smell of these old buildings.

"Something must have happened here, think about it carefully."

Yang Jie looked at the problem from a different angle.For mortals, many things are easy to perish, not to mention the life span of human beings. Even old buildings are not persistent in the wind and rain. It is like the Forbidden City, which has been preserved so well after several repairs. .But it is different in the world of practice, ghost cultivators who have lived for ten thousand years, a magic weapon that can preserve mana for ten thousand years, secret realms opened up by great powers, etc.

"By the way, there is a situation where the smell will be difficult to dissipate. To be precise, it's not the smell, but the qi that erupted at that time. That was the fight between the cultivators. In the early days, it hit Buzhou Mountain and caused the aura of heaven and earth Mutated, and later worried that mortals could not bear this burst of aura, the cultivator would be afraid to make a protective cover, but once the battle situation is fierce and the protective cover bursts, this kind of vindictiveness diffused in the world is extremely difficult to dissipate .Has there ever been any strange incidents in the capital?"

There are quite a few supernatural events with noses and eyes in the capital, but none of them have anything to do with Wang Gongchang.

Sui Erqi listened to Yang Jie's conjectures, and he remembered a major event in the Ming Dynasty—the apocalypse explosion, and the center of the explosion was the Wanggong Factory under his feet, which was the location of the Gunpowder Bureau of the Ministry of Industry.

The explosion occurred on the sixth day of May in the sixth year of Tianqi, more than 360 years ago. The explosion caused more than 2 deaths and injuries.

According to historical records, this explosion was really weird. Some people had seen unknown flames appearing in the capital city at night before. On the morning of the sixth day of May, the sky was originally clear, but suddenly there was a loud noise, and they saw the city. A particularly large ball of fire billows through the air in the southwest corner.Suddenly, the sky and the earth changed color, as if a black mushroom cloud appeared above the capital, and then this shock affected the entire capital, it was flying sand and rocks, and houses collapsed.

The imperial palace was also within the scope of the disaster. Ming Xizong was having breakfast at that time. He escaped from death after he immediately ran out of Qianqing Palace and hid under a wooden table in Jiaotai Palace.The main hall of Qianqing Palace was completely destroyed, and all the eunuchs serving in it were martyred.In this catastrophe, the prince Zhu Cijiong, who was less than one year old, was also crushed to death.

Even if it was like this in the palace, it was even more tragic on the street, not to mention arms and legs scattered everywhere, and what was even more strange was that the clothes on many people who suffered in the street were all gone.

There are different opinions about the cause of this big explosion. Some say it was an earthquake, some say it was a tornado, and many people think that the powder depot of Wang Gong Factory exploded.It's just that the power of the black powder back then was not so great, so the theory of igniting the gunpowder storehouse was somewhat untenable.

"Could it be that the big bang back then was caused by a fight between cultivators?"

Sui Erqi had to make this kind of guess, he had never seen cultivators fighting, but he heard Yang Jie said that if monks above Yuanying and above fight each other, it will be no problem to move mountains and seas.

"I think it's out of ten that it's related to monks fighting." Yang Jie concluded, "It's normal that you can't feel it. Human cultivators always have a weaker perception of this smell than monsters, not to mention it's already passed. More than 360 years. The residual influence of this fighting method is already very small, so small that only one point can be perceived in the central area. This fighting method that has caused great harm to mortals is bound to attract the attention of other monks, maybe there will be more The thunder tribulation descended. This past event had nothing to do with us, but right now, this smell has reappeared, which only shows one thing, the cultivator who fought martial arts is not dead, and he haunted the capital again."
