At night, the wind picked up, tearing apart the piles of frost flowers that had rested on the wall during the day, and covered them with the ground. They rested for a while, but were pulled away again and dragged to another place, just like the wandering wild animals in the world. tourists.
"Boss, I didn't expect that this Shichuan Kingdom would have such a magnificent building. Although it seems to be in decay, it is still strong even though it is wrapped in ice and snow."
"Yes, if it is an ordinary ancient city, it may have been dilapidated by the baptism of time. I don't know how this city was preserved so completely..."
"Hey, you don't know something. This Shichuan Kingdom used to be a valuable place. Even Yangdu City is not worth mentioning compared to it..." I saw this skinny old man stroking his beard and shaking his head. .
Wu Fan looked at the old man and found that although he was old, he gave people a feeling of vitality, as if he had infinite vitality, especially his eyes, which were as clear and black as a newborn baby, watery and shining.
"Boss, this is the old liar I met before. Don't listen to his nonsense..." Yuan Hua told Wu Fan what he saw that day before, but he has forgotten about it these days. In the past few days, he had been in a hazy state. He finally saw the light and was almost blinded. Now he has almost recovered. When he saw that the voice of the person speaking seemed familiar, he stretched his neck and took a look. He is indeed an old friend.
"This little monk, do you have some misunderstandings about me? Although I used some underhanded methods, they were just forced by the needs of my interests, but I didn't harm anyone's life. I walked with all of you here with cold light and blood. , doesn’t this old man have the heart of a Bodhisattva?”
"This..." Young monk Yuanhua scratched his head, but he had nothing to say.
"Anyway, I have nothing to do. If you are interested, you can listen to what I have to say. You will also know the basics. If you are not interested, just be an old man and I will make noises all the time." Then he moved forward and stroked his hand. Beard shook his head and picked up the unfinished words.
A lifeless empty city, an empty house with a collapsed roof, was now surrounded by half a circle of outsiders, covering the scattered muttering in the middle. They guarded the intermittent sounds in the cold night, just like holding a fire to keep warm. This candle flame had no light, but it illuminated everyone's thoughts.
The ice and snow of Sheichuan Kingdom melted in Mu Laoer's mouth, and the vitality slipped out.
A hundred, maybe a thousand years ago, when the river was still alive and turbulent, a huge capital city was built here without knowing when. The three huge and wild fonts on the plaque on the city are like its name "Yongchuan Country", which may break the plaque at any time.
The reason why it is called "Yongchuan" is because this river does not come from afar, but gushes out of the ground in one day. From the day it emerged, it became a river, not an ordinary stream. Yongchuan brings not only humid air, but also thousands of fireworks and fierce horses and soldiers.
According to legend, the city lord is a dragon monster who has practiced cultivation for thousands of years and transformed into a human form. However, he gets along well with humans and protects the people of Yongchuan from foreign invaders. Even the most ferocious mandrill in the mountains cannot invade.
The most evil and poisonous things in the world are nothing but evil spirits and heretics, and the most evil and poisonous thing is the human heart.
The human beings in Yongchuan Kingdom have been nourished by the dragon clan for thousands of years. I don’t know when, but under the dragon clan’s doting, jealousy sprouted. Then it thrived and became a subversive heart. Although a counterforce secretly emerged, it was weak and could only spread the words of rebellion verbally, and the mood of rebellion rose for a while.
However, the humans of Yongchuan Kingdom were raised by the Dragon Clan. Compared to the Dragon Clan, the human lifespan is just a fleeting meteor. A hundred years of resistance may be nothing more than teenage rebellion in their eyes, so the Dragon Clan didn't take it to heart, hoping to let this emotion be erased by the torrent of time.
As if responding to the call of their evil thoughts, one day when these subversive people were making plans again, a man with a pale face and a ghostly look suddenly walked in outside the door. Before anyone could react, he took out something from his arms. Things were thrown into the crowd.
The leader subconsciously caught the thing and found that it turned out to be a jasper wine flask. After he opened it with a wary look on his face, he felt a strange fragrance in the air. Unable to control himself, he wanted to drink from the pot, but at this moment he felt a cold feeling on his wrist.
His hand froze, and with an ouch, the wine bottle fell out of his hand and was held in mid-air by an iron-green hand. I saw this person holding a wine bottle in one hand, and the other hand tightly clasping this person's wrist. I saw a visible cold air quickly spreading from this person's wrist, and his body was so cold that he couldn't stop it. Tremble.
"Xiaxiaxia, in order to help you deal with the Dragon Clan, I spent a lot of effort to get this pot of poisonous wine. You people can't bear it. The Dragon Clan has deprived you of too many things. If you want to get it back, you just need to Add poisonous wine to their drinks and let them drink it, and their strength will be weakened and they will be at the mercy of others. I don't need to teach you the rest, right?" After saying this, the figure disappeared strangely.
The leader felt as if his right hand was broken. It took him a while to regain some consciousness. Then he looked at each other with everyone, nodded, picked up the wine bottle left by the man on the table, and got up to go. In the main hall of the Dragon Clan.
Hearing that the consciences of those humans who had rebelled in the past had repented, the Dragon King was very pleased and held a banquet to express his relief. But they didn't expect that these people had already mixed the poisonous wine with their wine. Thirty years later, these dragon people felt as if they had fallen into an ice cave, and their strength was completely blocked, and they suddenly realized that they had been framed.
Seeing that the dragon people had lost all their strength, these humans tied up all the dragon people and threw them into the water prison. The water in the water prison had already been mixed with poisonous wine, and the Yongchuan Kingdom changed its owner from that day on.
After seizing the power and establishing himself as king, the Yongchuan Kingdom changed its situation, squeezing the coolies and depriving the common people. Freed from the control of the dragon clan, the dark side of human beings was completely released, and they started to act unscrupulously, plundering all the surrounding villages, large and small, in just a few days.
And before they could enjoy the royal treatment for a few days, late one night, Mandrill, who had been stable for a long time, was driven into the main city of Yongchuan Kingdom by something unknown. At first, Mandrill was too afraid to approach, but after being driven into the city, he discovered that No one was able to drive them away. Although the power to drive them away disappeared at this time, they were reluctant to leave. After several attempts, they started to kill with howls and screams.
How could humans, who had been at ease for a long time, deal with such ferocious ghosts? Only then did they remember the goodness of the Dragon Clan, and hurriedly sent people to the water prison to fish the Dragon Clan out. The cold poison in the Dragon Clan's body had long been removed, and they were just affected by it. The cold poison trapped in the water prison cannot escape on its own.
After being trapped for several days, they finally got out and the dragon clan regained their freedom. But the cold poison in the body is easy to detoxify, but the poison in the heart is difficult to dispel. The cold poison invades the body, but hurts the heart.
Regardless of everyone's pleas, the people of the Dragon Clan showed their true colors. After lingering in the Yongchuan Kingdom for a few moments, they escaped into the river and disappeared into the Yongchuan River. Perhaps the cold poison in the water prison had lost its control. Ice formed instantly, and then every inch of land and every drop of river flow was frozen.
Yongchuan became the river of death.
"These evil people in the city really deserve to die!" Yuan Hua blurted out after hearing the anger. Feeling the strange eyes of everyone, he quickly clasped his hands together: "Amitabha, it is good, it is good, the evil people deserve what they deserve!"
"That's what Li'er is, but tell me, if all the people in the Yongchuan Kingdom were dead, where did this story come from? How come the origin of the Shichuan Kingdom is so clear?" Namu Lao Er chuckled and said slyly.
"That old liar! Where did you hear that?"
"I... I just heard it from hearsay... Hehe." Mu Fengchun said with twinkling eyes, but in the darkness, no one could see his expression clearly, and they couldn't tell whether it was a look of indifference or a bitter smile.
"Old liar! I'm telling you that your story is unreliable. It's probably just made up. Otherwise, why don't you tell me that those mandrills have extremely strong vitality? Why can't you see their shadows now?" After hearing too much of Mu Fengchun's words, , Yuan Hua inadvertently rolled up his tongue during the conversation.
"Can't see their shadow? Otherwise, how do you think the Han Mandrills came from? Conjured out of thin air?" Mu Lao'er sneered, "It's already dark, how come you didn't see the Han Mandrills? Is it possible that they all came back? Are you in the mountains? What's going on with you? Why are you staring at me? If you don't believe it, don't believe it. Can you still see the flowers blooming? "
"Senior Mu, what color are Han Zhu's eyes?" Young monk Yuan Hua swallowed his saliva and whispered.
"When I first saw the mandrill, I remember it was red and shiny, like two rubies. It was very beautiful. Now that it has mutated into a mandrill, I don't know if I have inherited the bloodline of my ancestors... Huh? You Why do you ask this?"
"Old liar, come closer slowly and don't look back..."
"What's the matter, you little monk wants to be a little liar? You can't deceive me, how can we occupy Han Mandrill's lair?" Old Man Mu looked back with disdain, and then his scalp went numb with a "Oh my God" , covering his mouth, "This... this... when did it happen..."
I saw that the window behind Mu Fengchun that connected to the corridor was filled with dense red light spots. Normally, the light of these rubies would be really pleasing to the eye, but now that the owner of the rubies is known, and the blurry white ghost under the moonlight, it could be something other than a mandrill!
Counting from the pairs of rubies, there were at least a dozen mandrills, staring at the people in the room with a ghostly look. Luo Shi looked up at the covered roof, and then whispered : "I'll count to three, then you follow me, rush out first, we can't do anything if we stay here, we will only be destroyed by the group." After saying that, he bent over and squatted on the ground, "You guys Who can stop me?"
The Han Mandrills must be afraid of fire. Wu Fan originally wanted to try to use fire techniques to disperse them, but under the ice and snow, he couldn't feel the fire spirit at all. He tried his best to get some sparks, so he gave up. Earth Jue and Golden Jue were also isolated by the sky full of ice and snow, and only the water spirit was very rich in the air. Is it possible that Han Mandrill should be given a bath so that he could let himself go once he felt comfortable?
Shaking his head to get rid of this ridiculous idea, he suddenly came up with a plan and hurriedly said to Luo Shi: "Brother Luo, I have a way to stop them, but it won't last long."
"Can you hold me for a breath?"
"able!"
"That's enough!"
