If any native of Qingzhou City is still breathing at this time, I am afraid they will never think that this desolate world with nothing but white snow and ice will be their favorite prosperous city. Where are the streets and alleys they are familiar with? Where are the tall houses and mansions built by wealthy families? Is this lifeless place, where not even a bird or an ant can be seen, really the water city that is praised as a spectacular sight in other countries? It is true that some of the bells decorated on the top of the tallest pagoda are still exposed outside the snow, screaming sadly in the wind, but they can easily be mistaken for the sound of wind, or covered up by more violent wind sounds-when Qingzhou City was still In the original Qingzhou City, such strong and destructive winds had never existed in the memory of the residents. What they were familiar with was the cool breeze that came along Bashui to relieve them from the summer heat. , Qingzhou City residents love to sit under the willow trees along the river at dusk and enjoy the rich products of this state and even other states. Because of the wealth of Qingzhou City, even ordinary residents can occasionally enjoy Yunzhou ham and Hengzhou melons. Nowadays All this no longer exists, replaced by this terrible cold wind!

The young Yi priestess exhaled a cloud of white air or nothing at all in the cold wind. The violent wind took away everything around her, except that it could not move her at all, as if her body was not affected by the wind. Even though she was moved, her will was not blinded by the sudden change in Qingzhou City. She could feel the army of the dead lurking below through the several feet of ice and snow (they were frozen before they could move out that day until today). She could feel the corpses of the Chang family strewn across the ground through the protective wall that was still in operation but did not play the role expected by its owner. She could even feel the fear, anger, regret and confusion of everyone in the Chang family at the moment of death. Their emotions were frozen so well that even she became curious about what would happen once they were thawed.

However, the largest existence is still Qiyun Peak. Its appearance is completely different now from the past. The ice and snow brought by the wind have submerged its lower half. Now it looks like an ordinary, mediocre mountain. The strange snow hills, except for their large size, look exactly the same as the snow hills in other places.

The Yi priestess stepped closer to it step by step on the snow that was still falling.

When she got close enough, she took it for granted that the person she was following had left here. She could already identify what was frozen in the giant building covered by the snow. Death Cult Monks aren't even the scariest thing in comparison.

No, she knows that those monks are not dead, just like they are not alive, their will is still here, in the corpses possessed by them, they all swore an oath before their gods before sneaking into Qingzhou, They will not leave here until Qingzhou is destroyed and until they get what they want for their god. This is a very powerful oath. It is difficult for people who do not believe in death worship to understand the severity of this oath. Even the Yi priestess can only roughly understand that after taking this oath, these monks are completing their Before the war oath, no matter how the things they possess are destroyed, no matter whether they are willing to continue or not, they will only be "reincarnated" again and again into any corpse in Qingzhou City - yes, any corpse . In other words, will their eyes go dark and then become possessed by a dead rat, or worse, a piece of rotten wood? Only their god himself, with great mercy, can do so. interfered.

It is conceivable that every Death Cult monk will frantically try to fulfill their master's will under this endless torture. When necessary, rats will automatically jump into the oil pan, and rotten wood will fall down and block the road. As long as Being able to serve their gods, there is nothing they dare not do, and there is nothing they cannot do. They are not afraid of death, because compared to the horror caused by breaking the oath, eternal death is so sweet!

In this case, the Immortal family guarding Qingzhou City cannot be their opponent at all. They can kill these monks a thousand times, ten thousand times, but they have the support of their gods and can always be reborn ten thousand and one times. In Qingzhou City, the Immortal Family in Qingzhou City cannot afford such losses. It is true that there are several immortal immortals in Qingzhou City. However, they are not united, and some of them secretly collude with the Death Worship Cult. They are as vulgar as ordinary people! In this case, the current ending is actually the optimal solution!

Since all the Death Cult monks are frozen here, in a state of immortality, their war oaths cannot protect them from escaping this disaster. Their oath is so powerful that even if the real immortals burn them into ashes, they will immediately reincarnate into any corpse nearby - even if the real immortals can burn every dead person and every dead mouse in Qingzhou City If you cremate it, can you also find every dead ant in the ground and burn it? But now the rotten corpses possessed by them have not suffered any damage, they are just frozen and unable to move. Even if their gods approve their reincarnation, every dead ant underground in the entire Qingzhou is frozen as hard as a brick. extent.

If they release the news in time and find help from other places, they will not be able to save them in a short time, because the result of rashly raising the temperature will trigger what is suppressed under Qiyun Peak, which has been suppressed by the power of the Immortal Family in Qingzhou. Once their things are touched randomly, the oath of war cannot save them. The cunning Xiao Qianqiu left them with a hope. If they do nothing, as long as one hundred years pass - which is a very short time for the death-worshipping monks - the accumulated coldness will naturally dissipate, and they will lose everything. They can easily fulfill their oath and get what they want without doing anything - as long as a hundred years, as long as... They don't have the ability to hunt down Xiao Rushi during this period of time, when he is most vulnerable.

In other words, Xiao Qianqiu sacrificed the few Qingzhou residents and almost the entire Xiao family who survived the army of the dead in exchange for Xiao Rushi's chance of survival. As for whether the things he is responsible for guarding will fall into the hands of the Death Worship Cult - —He left it to someone else who, God knows, exists or does not exist.

The young Yi priestess had neither sympathy nor condemnation for this. Her mind was running rapidly. Various memories from childhood to adulthood, mixed with many nightmares that she had long forgotten, kept flashing in her mind. She could She felt that some of the memories were not hers, but... She saw her attending a gathering of priests for the first time, offering sacrifices to the eight-handed Guru. In the blink of an eye, she was attacking the people outside the mountain again. At that time, she and the high priest went to the Guru. No, that was not the Guru. Just as she was about to exhale these words, the eight hands dragged her into the green abyss. She felt sharp spikes. Insert into the back of her neck...

She let out a silent scream, and suddenly found that the Guru and the green abyss had disappeared. She was in a world of ice and snow she had never seen before, and cold snowflakes kept falling on her bare hands and legs. .

Immediately, her horror was suppressed by a strong will, which said to her: "Get out of here, quickly."

She turned around and walked out of the city.

Behind her, on Qiyun Peak, there was an ominous rustling sound, but not long after, the weak sound was once again obscured by the sound of the violent cold wind.
