Chapter 166: The Birth of the Saint Who Guards the Heart 2
Xie Lian couldn't help but stare blankly. Pei Ming said, "Is this okay?"
Huacheng said: "Why not?"
Several people looked at him. Huacheng Road: "Isn't the point will point mortals to the sky? He only needs to temporarily point the Wuyong Kingdom near the imperial city to the sky, wait for the volcano to erupt, and then put it back after the dust settles, why not? "
Pei Ming said: "Don't make it so easy to talk about blood and rain. It's not that your Excellency doesn't know, and ordering generals will also cost mana. How many people will he have to order?"
Pointing generals, in fact, is using their own mana to "raise" the mortals who have been ordered by them for their own use. Otherwise, if there are no restrictions, will the priests not try their best to order people to the sky? The emperor will order the civil and military capital of the three palaces and six courtyards, and the general will order the entire army of his own.
Huacheng Road: "Judging from the remains left behind, the entire Wuyong Kingdom has a population of about 100,000 people. There are only tens of thousands of people near the imperial city."
Xie pity whispered: "Although it is difficult, but... it may not work if you try hard."
Pei Ming said: "Even if there are tens of thousands of people, no priest has ever dared to order so much. If this is the case, it is difficult to say whether he is courageous or extremely stupid. It is also considered unprecedented."
Xie Lian looked at the bridge on the mural and couldn't take his eyes off it. In his eyes, the faces of the white-robed prince and the four guardian deities under the bridge became more and more bizarre. The more they looked, the more they looked like the faces of himself and the four national masters, and he thought of the dazzling and guarding heart, as if reincarnation had repeated itself. The story made him impatient to know what was going to happen next, but he felt as if he already knew.
He didn't dare to look at the mural again, turned his head and said, "Have you found the water?"
Banyue dragged Pei Su and said, "That brother went to look for him."
She said Yinyu. Xie Lian glanced at Pei Su with his eyes closed, pondered for a moment, and still said: "I see, then we will go to the copper furnace, and General Pei will stay here."
After all, Pei Su is a human body now, which is inconvenient. Moreover, they don't know what is waiting for them. Pei Ming squatted down and looked at Pei Su, and said, "Okay, I agree. But please don't tell him the reason when His Royal Highness is in front of him. This child will understand. I'll just tell him about it."
Thanks for the pity: "General Pei, don't worry, I can save this, otherwise I won't say it before he wakes up."
After all, Pei Su used to be a promising young Martial God in the Heavenly Court, and now it would be unpleasant to be placed here because he couldn't keep up with the team. However, if you do something wrong, you will be punished. That's what exile is like, and you can only endure it.
A few people stayed in the temple and discussed it for a while. Xie Lian said strangely: "Where is Yinyu? Why haven't you come back for so long? Have you never found water?"
Huacheng is staring at the few undead butterflies perched on his fingertips. Those silver butterflies have just come in handy, and now they have returned to him, put them away and save energy. He raised his head slightly and said, "It won't take so long."
Xie Lian was vigilant, stood up, and said, "I'll go take a look. General Pei is watching here, Saburo is with me?"
It was natural to be with him. So, Xie Lian left Ruo Xie behind and made it form a protective circle. The two left the temple and walked deeper into the dungeon.
There are many houses and clutter on the road. Xie Lian picked up a jar that looked pleasing to the eye. Huacheng seemed to find it funny and said, "Why are you picking this up?"
Thanks for the pity: "If you find water later, you can bring some back to General Pei." After all, he was used to collecting junk, and couldn't help but patted the jar in his hand and said, "Speaking of which, this is still a thousand-year-old antique. Woolen cloth."
Huacheng laughed and said: "If you like this kind of thing, go back to me. I also have a few pieces, you can see if you like it."
After a stick of incense, the two faintly heard the sound of water flowing. After a while, Xie Lian said: "Here!"
There is a dark river underneath. Xie Lian put the jar he picked up into the water and scrubbed it hard. Thousands of years of dust have condensed into a thick shell, which cannot be washed off, but brushing off the dust on the surface can also be used. He filled the jar with water, lowered his head, and just wanted to take a sip. He was watching the surrounding Huacheng and turned his head, but said: "Don't drink."
Xie Lian has put his face close to the jar, listening to him stop, wondering: "What?"
At this time, a voice suddenly said: "It's so hot."
There were only the two of them present. Where did the third voice come from? Xie Lian subconsciously looked at the place where the voice came from, and the voice actually came from the jar in his hand!
He bowed his head sharply, and saw a pair of tiny scarlet dots in the jar, lurking in the water, staring at him.
How to see, this is also a pair of eyes! Is it possible that someone is hiding in it?!
The moment he looked at these eyes, the thing rushed towards the door of Xie Lian. The splash of "Clap La La" came first, thank you for your quick eyes and quick hands, and threw the jar several meters away on the spot, hitting the wall, "Dang bang!" The thing fell to the ground and instantly plunged into the darkness. In a hurry, Xie Lian didn't see it clearly, only thought it was a large group of black things, and said: "What is that?"
Huacheng stopped in front of him, Xie Lian said depressedly: "Is there no such thing in the jar before?" And why did it say "so hot"? Shouldn't it be very cold in the water?
Huacheng Road: "No, it swims in from the water. There are often things swimming in groups in this underground river, so let my brother stop drinking this water."
Thanks for the pity: "Then let General Pei drink it casually..." Suddenly, he had a cold on his back and shouted: "Who is it?!"
At that moment, he heard someone coughing in the distance.
It was definitely not his delusion, and he was immediately alert. Soon, a tidal wave of whispering voices spread. In all directions of the two, pairs of red lights lit up, surrounding them in the center. Huacheng Road: "Don't worry. It's not a person."
Xie Lian thought: "It's not that people need to worry about it..."
Listening carefully to the whispers, he discerned what their voices were saying:
"Cough cough cough..."
"It's so hot, so hot..."
"It burned me to death..."
"woo woo woo woo……"
"I'm going to be suffocated...is there anyone..."
"Can't move, can't move!"
Although these voices are small, they are clear and painful, like small ants, burrowing into people's ears. Xie Lian was about to put his hand on his heart when he heard a stern voice: "His Royal Highness, where is His Highness?! Help me, help me!!!"
Hearing the last sentence, Xie Lian was horrified and instantly delusional that the voice was calling him. And Huacheng waved his hand, and thousands of dead spirit butterflies scattered suddenly, rushing towards the pair of red glowing eyes!
The silver butterfly silver light is everywhere, illuminating the countless things whispering in the dark. They really aren't people, they are - mice!
Huacheng took him and said: "I said, there are many mice here. Go!"
Xie Lian said as he walked: "Is that a mouse? Why do I look more like a cat..."
Seriously, those mice were all bigger than kittens, their whole body was as black as steel needles, and a pair of small red eyes flashed fiercely in the dark, many of them were climbing on the wall, staring at them, mouths in their mouths. He also spoke human language, which was extremely strange. After the silver butterfly jumped up, they fought with them. The red light and the silver light flashed staggeredly, and the situation of the battle could not be clearly seen, but they also knew that it was extremely fierce and brutal. Thanks for the pity: "Isn't Yinyu going to be dragged by them?"
Huacheng said: "It's not so wasteful. It should be dragged by something else."
After listening to the first half of the sentence, I was relieved a little, and the second half of the sentence was brought up again. He said, "It doesn't matter if the mice are so big, why are there so many? What do they eat to grow so big?"
Huacheng Road: "Simple. Naturally dead people. These are corpse rats."
It turned out that when the city was covered with volcanic ash, there was nowhere for large livestock such as people, cattle, horses and sheep to escape. However, the rats got into the deep underground and survived by relying on the air and stored food in the deep hole. .
After the dust had settled, they burrowed again and ran around the hellish city in search of food. However, everything was destroyed, either buried by magma or covered by volcanic ash, gnawed many things, and could not find food for a long time.
Until one day, they smelled rancid.
The rancid smell came from those humanoid petrified statues. Some corpses were wrapped in volcanic ash shells. The shells were relatively thin and began to rot. There was an odor and corpse water flowed out.
As a result, the red-eyed and hungry mice circled around the fossil statue, bit a small hole in the surface of the stone statue, burrowed in through the hole, and ate the corpse inside.
The meanest things are often the easiest to survive. The bodies of the dead people were wrapped in fossils, and their strong emotions such as fear, anger, unwillingness, etc. were also wrapped in it. The rats ate their bodies and ate these emotions together, and they began to be able to speak. Spit out words, say what they wanted to say the moment they died, but couldn't.
Thanks for the pity: "That's why they said those words. I'm still wondering why this is the case..."
Who knows, Huacheng suddenly said: "What did you say?"
Xie Lian was startled and said, "What did I say?"
Huacheng stared at him and said: "What did they say? What did you hear?"
Thanks for the pity: "Did you not hear Saburo? It's 'so hot', 'suffocated', 'can't move', 'help me' and so on..."
However, before Huacheng answered the call, he reacted.
wrong!
Those corpse rats are repeating the ravings of the Wuyong people before they died, which is of course the Wuyong language.
So, why can he also understand Wuyong?!
