Ancient Sword II: The Tracking of the Fierce Mountain

Chapter [-]: Citizens

How long ago was that?When Priest Ziwei gave the order to go to the lower realm, there was a group of people who obeyed the order respectfully, but then returned home silently, closed their eyes and slept forever.

"The high priest has stayed for us until now, if we want to leave, wouldn't that hurt his heart?"

"It just so happens that my relatives are gone, this time, I can finally be reunited..."

"Hey, anyway, I've lived long enough, it's better to die in my own home than to die outside."

"No matter how hard it is, this is my home, what should I do when I leave?"

The stone house began to collapse, and the ground trembled and roared. They closed their eyes peacefully, and their hearts were peaceful.

They have suffered all their lives, and the only thing they want to do now is to stay here.

Stay in Liuyue City, their only home.

The earth buried the fallen Liuyue City, and the loess covered it and covered them as well.Mountains appear, ice and snow melt, new life quietly sprouts, and a little fresh green trembles.And they, slowly withered, slowly decayed, and finally turned into a piece of white bones in the dark underground.

Since then, eternal peace has been ushered in.

************

Xie Yi checked the basement all over, small tables, seats, tubs, and some odds and ends of daily necessities.This is obviously a living room, and the owner may not like being disturbed by others, so he moved his bedroom underground.

If it wasn't for Xie Yi's sudden intrusion, maybe no one would see him again.

Sleep alone, never to be remembered by anyone.

No... Xie Yi felt a little sour in his heart. He knew that there were many people, and they might be sleeping somewhere in Floating Moon City. They were equally lonely and desolate.

You guys...why bother...

In the past, it was not that Xie Yi did not understand their feelings, but if it were him, he might have chosen to die forever.But today, when he opened his eyes again, he couldn't help but lament for his clansmen in the past.

He was alive, but they were gone.

Everything...it was too late after all.

Xie Yi closed his eyes, trying to suppress the pain in his heart.He took off his coat, put it on the skeleton, and turned away without looking back.

I just hope that Ah Ye won't see it.

The door to the basement was on the right side of the bed, Xie Yi stepped forward and opened it, and a gust of cold wind howled in.Xie Yi narrowed his eyes slightly, feeling something was wrong in his heart.He took a step forward and closed the door behind him.

"It's no different—Yi Ze—"

Two calls, empty.

If Le Wuyi and Xia Yi had landed here, the first thing they did was to return to the ground and inform them, instead of rushing into the unknown.It's just that Xie Yi couldn't find them in the basement, so he could only keep going.

The light of the flashlight was as white as snow in the darkness. The corridor was two or three meters wide, and it was covered with regular marble floor tiles.Although there are stone walls on both sides, they are polished very smooth.

With the strength of the head of the family alone, can the underground passage be made to such a scale?

The clear sound of footsteps echoed in the corridor, and Xie Yi found out that this place might be longer than expected.

Shen Ye, who was separated from Xie Yi, did not fight Hei Zong as he imagined.

Every step Hei Zong took was a shock, like a soldier marching, quite solemn.There were green zombies passing by the eaves one after another on both sides. They looked at Shen Ye who was following Hei Zong, and they paused first, but when Hei Zong smashed Fang Tian's painted halberd heavily on the ground, they jumped in casually as if nothing had happened. leap.

Hei Zombie didn't have any malicious intentions, and was even protecting him.

When the two green zombies entangled earlier and forced Shen Ye to stay away from the main force, the black zombies suddenly rushed over.Shen Ye thought it was making things worse, but he didn't want the black zombie to swing the Fang Tianhalberd, and knocked the two green zombies to the ground.

The two green zombies rolled on the ground, seeing the black zombie standing coldly in front of Shen Ye, they gave up without hesitation, turned around and headed towards the crowded place.

Shen Ye wanted to step forward to stop him, but the black zombie swung his halberd again. Obviously, he didn't want Shen Ye to go back.

"you……"

Heizhi's movements remained unchanged, and his armored body was as heavy as a thousand jin.

So, when Shen Ye realized that Hei Zhan wanted him to go to a certain place, it was no longer so surprising.As for the black zombie walking behind, whether it was a threat or a protection, he didn't care that much.

Because passing through the many streets, passing through the withered arches, and crossing the broken square, Shen Ye is too familiar with this road.

Once, he walked on this road day after day, from youth to youth, from youth to death.The crowd following behind him talked and laughed, and as time passed, they left quietly one by one.He was left alone, sticking to the path he pursued.

"You..." Shen Ye turned around, hesitated to speak, and the black stiff followed silently, like a knight protecting the Lord.

Shen Ye shook his head: "That's all." He stepped forward again, his eyes gradually became firm.

Ahead of the road, there stands silently in the silence.

Unlike other houses that collapsed, Silence is still the same as in memory, tall and brilliant but extremely cold.

Shen Ye stepped up the stone steps step by step, behind him stood Hei Zong under the steps, bending down towards Shen Ye.His movements were extremely sluggish and inconvenient, as if trying to bend a piece of iron.You must know that Heizhi is invulnerable to swords and guns, but this also makes his limbs particularly stiff.Obviously even the bones began to break, but the black stiff was unswerving.

Finally, he saluted.

Lowering his head, bending his waist, respectful as ever, he watched the high priest walking slowly, surprised, delighted, excited, and jumping for joy.Then his companion patted him, and he realized that everyone else had already bent down.He quickly lowered his head, and then heard a chuckle.

so warm.

It was the only feeling left in his chaotic brain.

Shen Ye didn't look back, he seemed to be aware of Heizhi's movements, but he didn't seem to.He stood still at the gate: "Wait for me to come back." Then, he pushed open the gate between silence.

He didn't want to see them if he could.Even if it is dead, even if it turns into bones, it is much better than this.But now that he has seen and known, then they are still his responsibility.

never change.

The door banged and opened slowly.Inside the silence, it was spotless and brightly lit.This is not Shen Ye's style, because in his past, no matter how he fiddled with the silence, it would look cold and dark, so he let his subordinates fiddle with it at will, without looking too extravagant.And in the silence at this moment, rows of everlasting lights were designed to look like lanterns, hanging all over the ceiling.

Shen Ye stepped forward slowly, but within a few steps, the door closed by itself.

Shen Ye didn't even look at him, and walked straight to the center of the hall.There, a pool was dug at some time, the water in the pool was transparent and clear, decorated with the vivid bronze beast beside the pool, it was even more serene.

These bronze beasts are different from the lanterns above. The lanterns are simple in shape, with cold and hard lines, and they are neatly arranged.But the shapes of the bronze beasts are all small animals, such as rabbits, birds, monkeys, deer, and even cheetahs, all of which are small and cute.

Shen Ye stepped forward step by step, and the obviously altered silence made his heart feel heavy.

What about his bones?

Shen Ye never thought that after he returned to Liuyue City, what he had to worry about first was the bones of his previous life.

Although it was the previous life, no matter who touched him, Shen Ye would be displeased, or in other words, this is no longer an offense that can be summed up.

Shen Ye thought, if he knew who did it, he wouldn't mind killing him again—as long as that person was still alive.

The water in the pool was calm and waveless, reflecting Shen Ye's livid face.Shen Ye looked down, and found that the pool was very deep, and there seemed to be something rectangular locked at the bottom.

coffin?

This was Shen Ye's first thought.

his?

This is second thought.

As soon as this thought came out, Shen Ye naturally wanted to go down and have a look.Otherwise, he has no other intentions to look at other things.

Shen Ye squatted down, stretched out his hand to explore the pool, and found that the temperature was suitable, and there was no bone-piercing feeling.He wanted to take off his clothes, but he thought that since things were locked in this pool, the seemingly clean water might not be safe.After thinking about it, he finally put back the coat he had taken off.

Some of the bronze beasts by the pool were playing and some were drawing water. Shen Ye took one last look at them before jumping into the pool.

With a "plop", the water splashed everywhere, and Shen Ye's figure sank into the water very quickly.

There was a burst of ripples on the surface of the pool, and microwaves slapped the bank of the pool.The shimmering water light is projected on the eyes of the bronze beast, turning into graceful blue lines.Seeing Shen Ye's figure getting farther and farther away, those fawns who lowered their heads to drink water suddenly protruded a few black lines from their open mouths.

These black threads are extremely thin, about the same as spun yarn.It's just yarn, not twisted and twisted like they are, struggling to hang down the pool.Immediately afterwards, civet cats, rabbits, birds, leopards...the bronze beasts all began to spit black lines.

The thin black thread looks like a climbing worm, or a snake, falling off from the mouth of the bronze beast, twisting and swimming towards the pool.Once they slipped into the water, they turned into transparent threads that were almost invisible to the naked eye, sinking in the direction of Shen Ye.

And what about Shen Ye?Because the speed is fast enough, it has come to the coffin.

As Shen Ye expected, it was indeed a coffin.The outer coffin is made of golden nanmu, connected with several chains for fixing.It's just that according to the width of this coffin, isn't it too big?

With such a width, it is not a problem for three people to lie in the coffin.

Could it be that a large number of funerary objects were added to the coffin?

Shen Ye thought for a while, then put the question aside.He would like to see who is so bold as to place his own coffin in the room of silence.

Shen Ye pressed the coffin lid with both hands, exerted a little force, and found that it was tightly sealed.But no matter how reliable it was, it was useless in front of Shen Ye who was not in a good mood.

If it doesn't work once, it will work twice. Before Shen Ye decided to split it open with his sword, a burst of air bubbles gushed out from under the coffin lid.

Become!

Shen Ye exerted force again, and the heavy coffin lid was lifted in the water, and then Shen Ye used the buoyancy to send it aside.

The coffin lid fell to the ground, and the water in the pool shook for a while.

At this time, the swimming thin transparent threads were getting closer and closer, their tiny heads opened, revealing layers of fangs invisible to the naked eye, just waiting to bite through Shen Ye's skin, and then directly drill into the blood vessels.

Shen Ye stared at the coffin in a daze, feeling dumbfounded for a moment.

There is not one of the funeral objects that I thought.The inner coffin of this coffin is made of transparent glass, and the figure inside can be clearly seen.

The two hugging, the familiar black priestly clothes, and the lifelike faces seemed to be looking in a mirror.

Unexpectedly, it was really his own bones.

Shen Ye stared blankly at his own face, then slowly moved his gaze to the person he was holding.

An Ran's face, a peaceful face, seemed to be in a deep sleep.

"Xie Yi..."

The author has something to say: Are you startled?

You read that right, the body of the high priest in his previous life was holding Xie Yi.
