On this day, it was raining heavily.

Layers of dark clouds piled up on the sky, looking like they were about to collapse at any moment, but until noon, the sky was still raining lightly, with no tendency to turn to heavy rain at all.

But this kind of weather made Aso even more anxious.

After leaving Sangang City, Su Ziyi finally saw other settlements in Qin State. Although they were still poor, everyone lived diligently in every city and village they passed by, and they were very concerned about the existing life. Cherish it, and also feel great gratitude to Su Ziyi who treated them for free.

But yesterday, after Su Ziyi helped an old man in the village cure his long-suffering eye disease, he was almost worshiped by that family as a bodhisattva, so enthusiastic that Su Ziyi had to brave the rain early in the morning to take Asu out of the desert. escape.

At the beginning, Asu was still in the mood to tease Su Ziyi, but when they came within a dozen miles of the ruins of the capital, his face collapsed.

The impact of that catastrophe on the land still exists. Su Ziyi and the others walked along the way, and the surrounding vegetation became more and more sparse, and there were more and more large pieces of black soil that looked like burnt.There are occasional small insects here and there, but there is no animal. The whole land is gray and gloomy.

Su Ziyi didn't even need to get close, and didn't need to use his consciousness. Standing on a higher place, he could look at the mountain in the distance that seemed to be cut across by a force from outside the sky.

He could feel that in the ruins over there, there were traces of someone's activities.

Seeing Su Ziyi squinting his eyes towards the ruins of the capital, Asu became a little anxious.He originally disapproved of Su Ziyi's taking this route, but because Su Ziyi held his sleeves, and it was indeed the shortest way to go to the other side, so it was not easy for him to stop him.And he felt that as long as he had the heart, he should be able to stop Su Ziyi from becoming curious about it.

From this, seeing Su Ziyi looking over there, he hurriedly said: "Let's go quickly, Doctor Ye."

"It's raining today and the roads are difficult to walk. If we don't hurry up, we may not find a place to stay tonight." It may be the instinctive repulsion and fear of practitioners. After so many years, No one dared to settle here near the ruins of the capital, and as a result, there was no village within a radius of several miles, so the reason Aso was looking for made sense.

Su Ziyi looked back at Asu's evasive eyes, said nothing else, nodded, and stopped looking away, which made Asu heave a sigh of relief.

The road they are currently on is indeed not very easy to walk.

Because few people usually walk here, there is not even a whole road here, only a small path less than half a foot wide, which grows crookedly among the black stones, and the road is only small stones. Su Ziyi and the others sat on the donkey cart, Within the time of a cup of tea, my buttocks became a little numb.

"Tsk, I wouldn't have gone here if I knew it earlier." Asu complained, he didn't dare to accuse Su Ziyi directly, he could only mutter: "You are a foreigner, Doctor Ye, so I don't know, the place in front is quite evil. "As he spoke, he glanced over there apprehensively, and then immediately retracted his gaze, as if the shade covered by the rain curtain looked like a monster that could swallow people.

"I have heard old people say since I was a child that there are ghosts of practitioners who have died in that place, because they are not willing to die so ignorantly, so they are full of hatred. As long as someone approaches there, they will turn into ghosts and kill people with flesh and blood. Clean it up. After saying this, he shivered, obviously convinced of this rumor.

In order to seek a sense of security, he cast his eyes on Su Ziyi, only to find that Su Ziyi looked at him with a mentally retarded look, which immediately made his self-esteem a little unbearable, and he unilaterally argued with Su Ziyi: "Doctor Ye , you really don't believe it!,,

Like pouring beans, he poured out all the fear hidden in his heart at once: "You don't know how terrifying the cultivators in Diyue Kingdom were a long time ago. Normal cultivation relies on spiritual energy, right? They rely on drinking human blood and eating human flesh to increase their strength, and how many innocent people's bones are hidden under the ruins!"

"It must be because those cultivators have done too many immoral things, so God couldn't see it, and sent this punishment, destroying their lair, hurting their vitality, and never going back to the past." His teeth Biting loudly, with an angry look: "It is said that when this happened, those living cultivators wanted to take the place back, but they didn't expect that as soon as they entered the ruins, there would be an inexplicable feeling The power attaches to them, absorbs all the power from them, and makes them watch themselves lose the power they are proud of, and become an existence worse than us ordinary people."

"In the end, as long as someone goes in, no matter whether you are an ordinary person or a cultivator, you can only go in standing, die inside, and never come out again."

"Even, I've heard that as long as you stand near the ruins on a rainy day, you can hear the cries of ghosts..." Speaking of this, Asu belatedly realized that today is also a rainy day, and then I couldn't help shivering, and my eyes became timid.Su Ziyi was still waiting for him to continue talking, but he was already a little timid, his mouth was tightly pursed, without saying a word, he drove the donkey cart to speed up with a whip.

But in this kind of weather, in this kind of place, how can the speed of the donkey cart be so fast?

Before the road was far away, the heavy rain came first.After suppressing the torrential rain for a whole morning, a sudden ping-pong slammed down. The donkey, which was already a little unstable, was frightened. It ran with all four limbs in a panic, and the car behind it hit the nearby rocks all at once. Su Ziyi and Asu both stumbled and rolled out of the car.

This sudden change caught the two of them by surprise. Before they got up, the donkey dragged the tattered cart and ran away, disappearing into the rainstorm.

The torrential rain seemed to be like hailstones, and it was painful when it hit the person, and it subconsciously pressed down.Su Ziyi couldn't even open his eyes.

After finally getting up, he stretched out his hand to wipe the rainwater from his face, only to find that Asu was gone.It's not that they disappeared, but the rain was too heavy, and the sky was dark, so they couldn't find each other's location with naked eyes.

However, Su Ziyi could vaguely hear some voices, it should be Asu calling him, but under the cover of the sound of the rainstorm, those voices became extremely small, almost negligible.

The voice came from the front, so Su Ziyi subconsciously took a few steps back.

But what I didn't expect was that there was a slope on his body. As soon as he retreated, his feet slipped and he fell backwards. He subconsciously stretched out his hands to grab the sides, but only caught a bush branch, which was too big. Xiao Xiao was too fragile, and he broke it immediately when he grabbed it like this, and the whole person fell down uncontrollably.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, as if the heavens were really angry, and all the rainwater accumulated in the sky was tilted down at once, forming a rushing stream in the originally dry valley, and dispelling the soft and unstable soil. It was washed down... This was a natural rainstorm, but it became different because of the people it encountered.

By the time the rain started to dwindle, it was already evening.

During this period of time, the heavy rain has been enough to change many things.Although Asu was a bit courageous, in such an environment, and his body was still injured, he had to be timid. He shivered under the wooden plank of the broken donkey cart he found, and dared to climb out tremblingly until the rain subsided. Go look for Su Ziyi.

"Doctor Ye!"

He felt himself yelling heart-piercingly, but in the end he didn't even hear the voice.

The sky was already dark, and when he glanced over, he could only see a piece of darkness, and he couldn't see anything else, which made him feel even more flustered.He walked in a random direction and ran over, ran for a while and then changed to another direction, but no matter which direction, it didn't look right and right, almost driving him crazy.

Finally, he saw Su Ziyi's medicine box that had been broken into several pieces, and he chased after it as if he had seen the long-lost dawn, only to find a broken shrub branch nearby.

Under the bushes, there is a long slope, and the ditch at the bottom of the slope is collecting a lot of rainwater, sloping away in one direction.

It’s over.

At this moment, Asu's whole body seemed to be taken away by someone, and he sat slumped on the spot, staring at the bottom of the slope with blank eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.

At this moment, a gust of cold wind blew past Asu, who was already wet all over, sneezed directly.But before he finished sneezing, he only heard a "whoosh" sound from far ahead. The sound was not clear, as if it was separated by several floors, but it instantly made Asu's body stand upside down, walking around. Suddenly jumped up from the ground, no longer caring about Su Ziyi's Su Ziyi, turned around and ran away.

Especially when these voices suddenly became louder, he seemed to be being chased by a ghost, and he left at a faster speed.

And in the opposite direction to him, there is a black figure that is also dripping wet, and it is heading towards the place where the sound of "whoosh" came from.The ground was obviously muddy from the impact of the torrential rain. Anyone who collapsed on it would be in danger of getting stuck in it, but this person did not have this kind of trouble at all. The man appeared a few feet away, looking as light as a swallow, coming and going freely, no matter how good the hunter Ye was, he could not catch him under such circumstances.
