"Where is it?" Being in the cave, Jiang Yuzhong felt that the air inside and outside seemed to be different.

"In the middle of the pool of blood." Halberd replied.

Jiang Yu walked towards the so-called blood pool in the middle of the cave. In fact, it was called a blood pool, and there was indeed water in it, but the water inside was very clean and clear. You could see the stones and water plants at the bottom, which was completely different from its name. Does not match.There is a bright red coffin in the pool. The lid of the coffin is indeed half-opened. From Jiang Yu’s perspective, you can see the "person" lying in it. That face...

Jiang Yu turned to look at the halberd standing beside him, "It's really exactly the same."

"I was originally from him."

"How did the coffin open?"

"It was those three treasures that opened it."

Jiang Yu saw the Lizhu, the Dragon Tablet and the Golden Gourd on the coffin. These three should all be magical artifacts of a certain mage, and now they are assembled together—"What is missing is my heart?"

"...Mmm." Only Jiangyu's heart can revive the Zombie King.

When Zi and the others heard what Jiang Yu said, they knew that Jiang Yu knew that they wanted his heart, but they didn't expect him to come here after knowing it. Isn't he afraid?Or does he really trust adults? ...

In fact, to be honest, Jiang Yu believes in herself more.

The zombie in the red coffin has existed for more than 2000 years, but it looks like it just fell asleep, and it seems that it will open its eyes in the next second—Jiang Yu remembered his dream, if there were two halberds in the dream If it will appear, then does it mean that the zombie in front of him will eventually wake up?But the awakening of the Zombie King needs his heart, so do you have to donate your own heart?But in the dream, I met the zombie king again, so what happened...

"What are you thinking about?" Jiang Yu asked softly, staring at the coffin in a daze.

"I was thinking... is he worth my life..."

Ji frowned, "What did you say?"

"Just kidding." Jiang Yu glanced at him, "Don't take it seriously, I regret my life."

"I've said it before, I never meant it that way." Halberd reiterated.

"Whether you have anything or not is your business." Jiang Yu turned around, "I've already seen it, when are we leaving?"

"Let's go now?" Lan said, "My lord, we..."

He glanced at him, and said with a smile to Jiang Yu, "Don't you have a holiday on May Day? Staying here for an extra day or two is considered a fun."

"Whatever you want." Jiang Yu didn't care, anyway, going back would be a lot of troubles, "You can do whatever you want, I'll go outside for a stroll." After speaking, Jiang Yu walked out of the cave.

Seeing Jiang Yu leave, Lan stepped forward and whispered to the halberd, "Sir, do you really have no idea about bringing him? Isn't this also an opportunity..."

Ji lowered his face, "Don't you think I didn't teach you enough lessons last time?"

Lan and the others had no choice but to give up.

Jiang Yu sat on the big rock on the top of the mountain, but couldn't see the bottom of the mountain clearly. The fog here was thick and the sky was already dark.Although the moon today is not as big as a full moon, it is still quite bright, illuminating half of the mountain, and I can hear the cries of eagles on the mountain from a distance, sometimes mixed with the sound of crickets, and the evening wind is also very cool. The air is refreshing, the air here is very close to his hometown, much fresher than in the city.Jiang Yu was bored, counting the will-o'-the-wisps on the mountain over there, there were many dots, floating around like dancing in a group.

Jiang Yu looked into the distance, and his eyes gradually seemed to become blurred. A figure came from far and near. In the red light, the facial features could not be seen clearly, but there seemed to be a long tail behind the man, which seemed to be falling down. like a snake tail...

"Basil...basil...little taro...little taro..."

Jiang Yu opened his eyes suddenly, but what he saw was a worried handsome face.

"It's you." Jiang Yu touched his forehead, where cold sweat broke out.

"Why do you doze off while sitting?" Seeing Jiang Yu waking up, Ji asked with a smile.

"Maybe I'm too tired." Jiang Yu said, hiding the slight doubts in his heart.

"When we're tired, let's go down the mountain to rest. I've booked a hotel with my watch."

"okay."

When Jiang Yu followed the halberd down the mountain, the sound of "perilla" seemed to be ringing in his ears.

Who can call himself "Zisu"?

There are all mountain spirits and ghosts here, which are in the way of me, but at that moment there is always a feeling of familiarity.

Jiang Yu felt that the one just now was not a dream.

Jiang Yu got up in the morning, stood in front of the window and looked at the yard downstairs with pear blossoms. Jiang Yu found that there are many pear trees planted in this place. In this season, looking at it, there is really a kind of "thousands of pear trees blooming". mean.

"Button".

Jiang Yu heard the knock on the door, went to open the door, and saw the halberd standing outside the door.

"I got up pretty early." Jiang Yu said.

"We don't have such a regular rest time." Ji smiled, "Do you want to have breakfast when you get up?"

"Okay, wait a minute, I'm wearing a coat." It was still a little cold in the morning.

Jiang Yu and Ji went to the small restaurant in the town to have breakfast, they were the only two of them, the few did not follow today, Jiang Yu was also happy and at ease, although he was never uncomfortable.The food in each place has its own characteristics, and a small place like this has a unique style.Compared with those delicate foods, Jiangyu prefers these local foods.

Jiang Yu ate two bowls of noodles, the noodles were handmade, and the ingredients were fresh and local products, and there were plenty of noodles. Jiang Yu ate two bowls, ate a few steamed buns, and drank a bowl The sweet soup was finished - he ate more than the others, and he was used to it.

"Did you eat?" Halberd asked.

"Well, it's almost there." Jiang Yu finished the last mouthful of sweet soup before putting down the bowl.

"Then let's go and go shopping."

"Hmm." Jiang Yu thought about it and said to the host who collected the money, "Boss, is there anywhere you can go shopping?"

The boss said with a smile, "Young man, you are from other places. There is a place here that you must go to."

"what is the place?"

"Nuwa Temple."

"Is there a Nuwa temple here?" The Nuwa temples that Jiang Yu knew were all thousands of miles away—in this day and age, there are few people worshiping Nuwa, but there are many various Buddhist temples and temples.

"Yes, our town has been protected by Empress Nuwa for thousands of years."

This is the countryside and relatively closed, so it is more superstitious.

The other local old people in the store saw Jiang Yu and the two who didn't quite believe it, and immediately said, "Young man, don't believe it, our ancestors have all met Nuwa..."

"What does Nuwa look like?" Jiang Yu asked curiously.

"It's not good to be profane."

"If you want to see it, you can go to the temple to see it. The statue of Nuwa is made of gold according to the way passed down from generation to generation."

Ten minutes later, Jiang Yu stood in the Nuwa Temple and looked at the statue of Nuwa in front of him—in this small town, the statue of Nuwa pasted with gold foil fully demonstrated the people's belief and respect for it.This statue of Nuwa Goddess is very similar to the one in the legend, with regular features and a majestic appearance that looks like Guanyin, but what attracted Jiang Yu's attention was the tail behind her... It was very similar to the one I saw in a daze yesterday... …In the legend, Nu Wa is indeed the head of a man and the body of a snake, just like her brother Fuxi.Because of this tail, Jiang Yu couldn't help but look at it a few more times.

"What's the matter, is there something wrong? Not many Nuwas are like this." Ji said to Jiang Yu.

"She..." Jiang Yu just opened his mouth to say a word, when he heard someone from the side come over and say——

"Young man, this is not the same. I dare not say it in other places. Our Empress Nuwa is very spiritual. Thousands of years ago, Empress Nuwa appeared here. It was she who saved our ancestors. With us, he has always blessed us until now..." It was Miao Zhu in the temple who spoke, a white-haired old man.

"She really appeared? How did she save your ancestors?" Jiang Yu has heard the story of Nuwa creating man and then Nuwa repairing the sky, but she has never heard of Nuwa saving people—and according to them However, this Nuwa appeared not when the world first opened, but a long time later.

"I don't know the specifics. It's just that our place suffered a catastrophe at that time, and it almost became a dead town. At this time, the Nuwa Empress descended from the sky and saved everyone. Only then did our town be preserved. "

"Did she tell your ancestors that she belonged to Nuwa?" Jiang Yu asked again.

"There doesn't seem to be any, it's just that the legendary Nuwa is as beautiful as a fairy, with a human head and a snake body, and the snake tail is said to be longer than a street... So, and because of this, we have a rule that we can't hurt snakes even when we see them , and respect them.”

"The human head and snake body may not necessarily be Nuwa." Ji said, "It's more likely..." The following words were swallowed by Jiang Yu's eyes——

Jiang Yu knew that he couldn't say a word of disrespect to the Nuwa Empress here, or he might be expelled from the town.

"Grandpa, how many thousand years ago did the Empress Nuwa you mentioned appear?" Jiang Yu asked.

"Oh...it should be, almost...2000 years ago." The old man replied.

The eyes of Jiang Yu and Ji met - this number is really a coincidence.
