And when she was anxious, Jiang Jinyuan finally ran out, it wasn't her who ran out, it was the girl named Yuan who opened the door.

Hua Luling finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Jiang Jinyuan come out.

Jiang Jinyuan untied the rope on his body, then pulled Hua Luling and ran out in a hurry.

And the silent ghost city behind him also gradually began to make sounds, but to any living person, the sound can only be described as creepy.

Jiang Jinyuan and Hua Luling managed to escape.

Both supported their knees, panting hard.

"Master, why didn't they come out?" Jiang Jinyuan asked strangely, those ghosts seemed to become very frightened when they reached the exit, as if there was something outside that made them extremely frightened.

"They can't leave that place, Juyuan, do you think that the only ones who are cursed are those outside? Inside are the souls that have been imprisoned for thousands of years. Their unwillingness and resentment are no less than those outside." Hua Lu Ling supported the tree and looked at the vast sky, as if the feeling of oppression just now had finally dissipated.

Jiang Jinyuan slowly slid down the tree trunk, closed his eyes, and his mind was filled with the images he saw today. All this was just for the emperor's wish of immortality. Jiang Jinyuan never thought about the grievances that have lasted for thousands of years , she was going to rescue those people, she had always just wanted to protect Qin Zunyue's Zhouquan, but along the way, Jiang Jinyuan suddenly found that what she wanted to protect was not only Qin Zunyue, but also those innocent people who were implicated. people.

There are also those wandering Gelu clansmen here, as long as they think of them repeating their pain here for thousands of years, Jiang Jinyuan feels guilty and depressed for no reason. That feeling can't be said, and she doesn't know how to describe it. She just I felt like I was going to be out of breath.

Hua Luling looked at her and smiled softly: "Why, are you so depressed today? How motivated are you?"

Before Jiang Jinyuan could answer her, Hua Luling heard footsteps, which were human footsteps. The two looked at each other and hid in the nearby bushes at the same time.

A familiar face, Jiang Jinyuan once put her in the most respected position besides the master, but now he suddenly stood on the opposite side.

"Professor, it seems that someone has been here before." The place where they stood happened to be the place where Jiang Jinyuan and the others usually camped. Although some things were packed, there were still some traces left.

Hua Luling and Jiang Jinyuan were still some distance away from them, but as long as they moved, they would definitely be heard there.

"Just camp here, and continue to investigate tomorrow morning." Zheng Di said, and the others immediately started to act.

The sound of setting up camp was just enough to cover up their footsteps, Jiang Jinyuan and Hua Luling looked at each other and left quietly.

Now they can only go back to the place they just ran out of, a deeper place, where it is not suitable to stay overnight, too many ghosts exist.

But Jiang Jinyuan and Hua Luling have no choice now.

Fortunately, the two of them were not just empty-handed, and they joined forces to set up a formation, and barely survived the night.

At the dawn of the next day, Jiang Jinyuan woke up, and Hua Luling woke up too. Jiang Jinyuan didn't know when she stopped staying in bed. It seemed that since Qin Zunyue was not around, she would never stay in bed again.

"We have to get the things out as soon as possible, otherwise if they get there first, who knows what will happen." Jiang Jinyuan didn't know who Zheng Di belonged to, nor what she was going to do, but it was definitely not for them. good thing.

"Yeah." Hua Luling and Jiang Jinyuan entered the place where they had been to countless times, but this time after Hua Luling entered, they closed the exit.

"The real exit is inside, do you want to trust yourself once?" Hua Luling asked lazily.

Jiang Jinyuan turned on the flashlight: "Hasn't Master Uncle already made a decision?"

If Zheng Di can reach the place where they camp, they probably know the entrance, and they will come in within two days at the most, but if they find this ready-made entrance, they will be attacked.

This time Hua Luling didn't let Jiang Jinyuan go in by himself, but the two of them went in together.

Jiang Jinyuan has roughly figured out what's inside.

"That location should be the king's residence, and that's where the saint's is. What we're looking for should be at the altar, over there." Jiang Jinyuan explained every location clearly.

Hua Luling gave her a strange look: "How do you know?"

Jiang Jinyuan smiled wryly, how would she explain it, these were all she saw yesterday, such a vivid picture, it was hard for her not to believe it, and she always had an inexplicable sense of familiarity with this place, that is, very familiar.

"I saw it." Jiang Jinyuan still said it, whether Hua Luling believed it or not, it was true.

"En." Unexpectedly, Hua Luling didn't say anything, but just nodded lightly to show that she knew.

During the day, the ancient city was just quiet, Jiang Jinyuan led the way, Hua Luling followed her, the sound of their footsteps, in this empty space, was extraordinarily eye-catching, adding a bit of weirdness.

Going straight to the direction of the altar, Jiang Jinyuan found that she seemed to be familiar with every road here, and she could even imagine the scene at the next corner when she walked to a place.

A huge open space appeared in front of him, and Jiang Jinyuan stood there, always feeling that the calling voice that had always been in his mind became stronger.

Hua Luling looked at the time, it was already night, just wanted to ask Jiang Jinyuan if he was sure the things were here?The resentment in this place is extremely strong, I'm afraid it's not suitable to stay here, but Jiang Jinyuan has already walked up the steps slowly.

She wanted to pull the person down from her body, but the surroundings suddenly lit up, and the faint blue flames illuminated that space, so Hua Luling was able to see the whole picture of the altar clearly.

On the round altar, there is a large tripod, surrounded by nine pillars arranged according to certain rules, with ancient runes carved on them, on the top of the altar is a throne, next to the throne, stands a handle The long sword seemed to be covered in a layer of gray.

Jiang Jinyuan slowly walked up to the altar, knelt down in front of the tripod, made ancient and strange gestures with her hands, and read obscure mantras from her mouth, and the surrounding ghosts bowed down following her movements.

Hua Luling frowned, and wanted to go up and pull Jiang Jinyuan down, but she only took a step towards the altar, and the docile ghosts all surrounded her with their teeth and claws.

Jiang Jinyuan seemed to be completely unaware of the situation here and continued with her ceremony.

The sword on the throne trembled suddenly when she finished chanting the last incantation.

Hua Luling was tired of dealing with those suddenly violent ghosts, and she already had many wounds on her body. These ghosts had accumulated grievances for thousands of years, and they wished to devour every person who invaded here alive.

With those desperate roars and resentment in her ears, Hua Luling suspected that she would become one of them in the next moment.

When Jiang Jinyuan heard the sword cry, he regained his clarity.

"Jiang Jinyuan, if you want to die, don't drag your uncle to my death."

Hua Luling's usual lazy voice is really anxious now.

Jiang Jinyuan realized his current situation, stood quietly on the spot, and said in a deep voice, "Back off."

The voice wasn't too loud, but the low and slightly angry voice really made those ghosts return to their original positions.

"Uncle, you can't come up, as long as you don't move, nothing will happen, they just won't allow anyone to interrupt the ceremony."

Jiang Jinyuan looked at the throne seriously, Jiang Jinyuan didn't know why she knew this, she only knew that it was her mission to complete this ceremony, a mission that must be completed.

Watching Jiang Jinyuan's movements, Hua Luling finally understood what she was doing. During the Xia and Shang dynasties, when the leaders of some tribes succeeded, the succession ceremony would be held by highly respected members of the tribe.

And the Ge Lu family is a saint to preside over this ceremony.

This is what Jiang Jinyuan is doing now, but there is no one on the throne.

In the end, Jiang Jinyuan stood in front of the throne, without being crowned, she just put the sword that had been waiting for thousands of years on the throne of nothingness.

Hua Luling could feel the joy of the ghosts around her, as if something she had been looking forward to for a long time had finally come true.

"Okay? It's time for us to go out." She couldn't guarantee that she wouldn't be torn apart if she continued to stay here.

But as soon as her words came out, the whole altar changed. The circular altar in the middle began to sink, and the originally quiet ghosts began to attack the only living person here.

Hua Luling raised her head and looked in Jiang Jinyuan's direction, trying to tell someone to leave, but found that there was no one there, Jiang Jinyuan was not there, and neither was the sword.

When Jiang Jinyuan held the sword, she felt that there were many, many things in her mind. Before she had time to sort out those images, she suddenly lost consciousness.

Hua Luling weighed the current situation, ignoring what Jiang Jinyuan said, and ran towards the middle of the altar, covering her body with yellow runes.

The throne gradually sank, and Hua Luling saw a passage, but she didn't know where it led.

Hua Luling thought for a while and went in, the flashlight in her hand illuminated the entire corridor.

The more she walked in, the more suffocated Hua Luling felt. This is a common phenomenon in cemeteries. After all, it has been sealed underground for too long. The air inside always contains some unbearable things, even It is poisonous gas.

Hua Luling didn't dare to be careless, took out a small gas mask from her backpack, and continued to walk in, those ghosts were about to break through her defense, Hua Luling had no choice but to walk in.

Jiang Jinyuan felt her head hurt, and she felt as if she was drowning when she was more awake.

She tried her best to open her eyes, but couldn't open them no matter what, but she could feel that there were many people around her, and she could also feel her own strong hatred.

It was strange, as if she had two consciousnesses, one was watching and the other was full of resentment, as she kept sinking into the water, Jiang Jinyuan felt her consciousness blurred again.
