Chapter 235 Dead City
The dilapidated city walls and dusty houses disappointed us a little, but I think so, it has been thousands of years, and even Mi Ye and the others need to contact the outside world to reproduce. Even if the people here are in a city, they can no longer hold on.
I fanned the dust raised and sat outside the ruins of a long-decaying house, and couldn't help but feel bitter in my throat.
"Brother, it's okay." Mi Ye patted my shoulder.
I tried to smile, we were late, and if the people here were earlier, they might have ended this damn fate.
Looking at the dilapidated city-state, I couldn't help but hate the one buried in the underground palace, which allowed innocent people to live in such a dark place for generations. Since I can calculate, why do I still need to keep a person in a vigilant? This is simply ironic.
The rest of the people went around to find clues, but it seemed that there would be no gains. The damage here was too serious.
"Brother, have you seen it? There is no corpse here, no humans, no animals, no daily necessities, etc. This means that they may have left the place and were not extinct."
I suddenly realized that I was too emotional. I stood up and carefully checked the ruined houses around us. As Mi Ye said, there were neither corpses nor living utensils.
"Really, it seems they should have left here."
"Yeah, and the plank road we came down did not disappear because of disrepair, but someone took it away on purpose." Mi Ye said.
Then I remembered that the color of the stone beams on the plank road did not seem to be so dark. It was not caused by nature, but artificial. So they deliberately abandoned it. After understanding this, I suddenly became cheerful.
"Thank you Xiaoye."
Miye smiled.
Everyone who goes out will come. As I expected, we can't find anything. The sky is getting darker and we have no idea now, so we just stayed here overnight. There is nothing here, but it's safer.
The bonfire was lit, and we sat together and finally had our first decent dinner after we came in.
"Don't hide it. If our resources are not shared, then the tomb will not be opened." I said to look at the explosion of Mars.
Everyone looked at each other. Speaking of which, we may not be the strongest, but if we want to deal with us, we will be the kind of hard bone that hurts the enemy by one thousand and one thousand, and the key to opening the tomb door is also on our side.
"We only know that there is what we want inside, but we really don't know where the tomb is above, otherwise you think you can be here?" Jian Linxiu looked impatient.
It is true that with the strength of their witch clan, we cannot keep us until now, and we don’t need to bring us together.
"What's there?" I asked looking at Zongzi.
"Since you have guessed it, we will not hide it at night, so we are going to resurrect him." Jian Linxiu said.
It was true, but he cleverly made me unable to ask about the identity of this Zongzi again. I smiled. This trick was really high.
"Then what do you three want?" I turned to the remaining three.
"Of course it's the pill that makes me normal." said the old witch.
"Living." The witch was a little choked. She had indeed changed since she was fed to the insect by Jian Hanyi, and now she just wants to survive.
I looked at Lao Hei, "No." Lao Hei said these two words, which did not surprise me. Although he had been protecting the old witch for so long, he could see that they were not a master-servant relationship, but as for what kind of relationship it was, I couldn't see it for the time being.
"As for us, we all need to break the shackles on our bodies. Since everyone's goals are different, there is no need to fight for and kill at night. There are things that can satisfy us. In this way, should we use alert and calculations to other places for the journey we still have to continue? To put it bluntly, everyone needs it, there is no need to live to the death." I said.
Jian Linxiu couldn't help but clapped, "Our Wu Zhu really worried about us. Since this is the case, don't hide it, tell me, what information does there be about the tomb."
Jian Linxiu's eyes swept across everyone, and finally left his eyes on our faces.
There is still no one talking, I don’t know what I’m worried about, and no idea of finding the entrance is useless.
"Forget it, let's talk about it after you figure it out." I understand that everyone is thinking that they might be able to save their lives at critical moments.
I found a place to put down my backpack and planned to take a look for a while.
Ruddy~
A slight sound came from my ears, and I woke up in an instant, but I didn't wake up immediately, but instead pricked up my ears and listened carefully.
Ruddy~
Logically speaking, there are no other animals here except us, or do the animals here only move at night?
I pretended to turn over. A Wu Wei and Lao Hei were watching the night by the bonfire. The rest of the people had already rested. No one on our side was vigilant, but there was actually no need. Everyone would not be able to get along with themselves.
Ruddy~
The sound came again.
I sat up in a hurry.
The two people by the bonfire soon found me up and were about to stand up and ask me.
"Shh~" I stopped them, pricked my ears and listened carefully to the movements around me.
The sound seemed to come from the forest outside the city wall. Although it was very light, it seemed particularly abnormal in this quiet night. The sound was like someone was dragging a long rope to run around the woods covered with fallen leaves.
"Did you hear it?" I asked in a low voice.
The two shook their heads, "Strange, you guys come here to try it."
I thought it was because of the location, but it didn't seem to be the case. They still didn't hear it, but it sounded louder and louder to me.
I stared at their eyes, making sure they were not playing with me, and I couldn't help but look at the dilapidated city wall in front of me, not knowing whether to continue sleeping or to see what was going on.
But after lying there toss and turns, he still didn't fall asleep, so he just got up and watched.
This city of light is like a dead city buried in this sinkhole. Apart from the rumbling waterfall in the distance, it can be said that there is no life here. The trees beside the road are like wilted cabbages. Except for the strange plants, there is a feeling of walking into a deserted village inn.
All this under the darkness was so clear in my eyes. I could not help but feel a lot of emotion when I imagined its once glorious appearance.
Ruddy~
The sound rang again.
This time Wu Wei and Lao Hei seemed to hear it, and the three of us turned our bodies in the direction where the sound came.
"I'll go and have a look." Lao Hei said, and he looked at the old witch and stood up.
"I'll go too." I said quickly.
The sound came from behind a pile of rocks. I surrounded each other from both sides. I held the short knife in my hand and walked around the pile of rocks.
There was an empty venue with nothing, but the rustling sound did come from here.
Lao Hei and the other two looked at the empty venue and were about to turn back, when the sound rang again.
I immediately stopped and leaned against Lao Hei's back. It seemed that the two of them could not separate for the time being.
