It's the memory of the dead woman!

The woman in his memory is just as Chu Zhen imagined, she is a candidate for sainthood.

In Gu Village, a saint is not a saint from birth, but has to go through layers of selection.

The villagers will select girls of the right age as candidates for saints from the very beginning, and then they will be screened to become real saints.

Although I don’t know what the basis for selection is, in the end only one person can become a true saint.

Being able to become a saint is glorious and sacred, and it is what every woman dreams of.

The woman's nightmare also started from the day she lost the election.

On the day when the saint was elected, she was put into a coffin. The dark coffin was nailed with nails, and a formation was set up outside the coffin to tightly seal her in the coffin before she died.

She couldn't escape, so she could only cry inside. She slapped the coffin desperately, praying for someone to save her, but what waited was only slow suffocation and endless despair.

The memory came to an abrupt end in the darkness, and Zhu Zhen was unable to recover from that despair for a long time.

It took him a while to calm down, but he couldn't help but wonder, how did she get here?

Suddenly the voice of the system popped up in my mind: [Congratulations to the host for completing the side mission: Mirror Flowers and Water Moon. Received ten skill points as a reward. ]

Zhu Zhen looked at this line of text on the interface in disbelief.

This mission that appeared inexplicably was completed inexplicably?

Even now, she still doesn't understand what "Flowers in the Mirror, Moon in the Water" means, but her intuition tells her that this ancient city is definitely not simple, and it's not just this strange woman.

The forest was very big and they managed to escape.

They found that the fire seemed to be trapped within the confines of the forest and did not follow them outside.

After running for a long time, they were so tired that they sat on the ground panting. Lin Guihe gave Chu Zhen some saliva, and Chu Zhen thanked him in a low voice, but this time he did not avoid him.

They sat on the ground facing the forest and watched the fire gradually diminish after they came out.

After the flames completely dissipated, the entire forest disappeared.

In other words, it has been burned to ashes by fire, and the ground is covered with a thick layer of gray-black plant ash and charred soil.

It was the first time I saw a forest that had been burned so cleanly. This forest had always been weird from the beginning, but after it was burned down, the weirdness reached its peak.

From a distance, the land is bare, but in the center of the land, there seems to be a long red shadow, stretching across the edge of the spring.

That's exactly where the woman's body was.

"Is there something over there? Should we go over and take a look?" Liu Yun squinted at the red shadow and asked.

The answer is of course yes.

Without the trees to confuse the direction, they quickly reached the edge of the spring, where the original woman's body had disappeared, leaving only a huge red worm lying on the ground.

Liu Yun circled around the worm, touched his chin and said, "So the woman just now was actually a worm spirit?"

As he got closer to the worm, Chu Zhen felt that the green poison in his palm began to stir again, and he desperately crawled out of his palm as if he wanted to eat it.

She quickly stopped him. They still had use for this worm.

Now that the woman is dead, they can't get any more clues from here. Fortunately, there is still the announcement.

You might be able to use the worm's corpse to get something useful from the person who put the bounty on it.

So Liu Yun, who was the strongest, dragged the corpse of the worm into the city.

Almost all the people in the city came out and were standing on both sides of the road to welcome him.

It turns out that at some point, the news that they had killed the monster had spread throughout the streets.

"Tsk, tsk, it feels strange to be welcomed by such a group of skeletons." Liu Yun shook the goosebumps on his body.

Although these skeletons have now turned into human beings, they are still feeling uncomfortable in their hearts.

In the past, such skeletons must have been enemies. Who would have thought that one day they would be welcomed by skeletons.

"It's better than fighting with them." Bi Li patted Liu Yun's shoulder and Liu Yun nodded, "That's true."

Not long after walking, I saw a group of guards coming towards me.

Their clothes are somewhat similar to those of the city gate guards, but the material is better.

They came in front of Zhu Zhen and others, and the leader bowed respectfully, "We are from the Imperial City Guards. I heard that you took off the notices and killed the monsters. The high priest is very grateful for your achievements, and specially tonight

A banquet was held in the imperial city and you are invited to attend."

Zhu Zhen and others looked at each other, obviously the word "high priest" got their attention.

"Okay, we will go to the banquet." Lin Guihe nodded, and the guards left with the dead worm body satisfied.

They returned to the inn, Lin Guihe's room.

Lin Guihe and Chu Zhen drew the layout of the entire imperial city they saw last night. Liu Yun went over and memorized the entire layout map, while he couldn't help but sigh, "This capital is really big."

Together they walked around in this circle and only visited the outermost circle. There are still three floors inside.

Compared to Liu Yun who just memorized the layout, Bi Li looked at it more carefully. After all, he knew these things best.

He stared at the picture for a long time, and the more he looked, the more horrified he felt. "Do you think the layout of this ancient city is like a huge tomb?"

He stretched out his hand and pointed to the location of the imperial city, "This imperial city is located exactly where the main tomb chamber is in the center, and the outer circle is like a circle of burial pits."

"What about this altar? Are altars usually placed in tombs?" Zhu Zhen was very concerned about this altar, especially after discovering that it was exactly the same as the altar in the tomb.

Bi Li shook his head, "Normally not, and judging from the shape of this altar, it shouldn't be the shape of an altar that would have appeared five thousand years ago. I don't know why it appears here."

Here they hit a bottleneck again.

Night fell quickly, and when a few people went out, the guards were already waiting at the door of the inn. I don't know whether it was out of politeness or because they were worried that they would run away.

After passing through layers of residential areas, they finally arrived at the gate of the imperial city.

There, stood a man, tall, with a handsome face and strange earrings hanging on his ears.
