The nine hundred and fortieth chapters of the city of Yin (11)

In the darkness, a door with the sound of bronze rot was pushed open heavily. The footsteps of Chu Xunyu and others came from the dusty corridor. Everyone walked in and found that this was a corridor, full of entangled branches and leaves and dust, and their noses were filled with the smell of ancient copper rust. Chu Xunyu did not dare to be careless, so he lit an ordinary torch to make the light brighter. He looked around and was shocked. A thick layer of branches and leaves spread on the wall.

Not to mention, there were wreckages and scattered weapons everywhere, covered with thick dust. Some of the wreckages and weapons fell to the ground, a little stuck in the branches and leaves. Without exception, they could be turned into powder with your hands. Because it was too old, traces of fighting could be seen everywhere. The walls and ground were covered with scars, including swords and axes, and some were burnt. Mu Yuan asked, "When Zhuang died, someone would attack the city?"

"It shouldn't be." Chu Xunyu shook his head, "Except for the court at that time, that is, the army of Emperor Wu of Han, who could have led such a large force to attack here? But Emperor Wu of Han arrived a few days later. The ancient Dian Kingdom surrendered directly. It should be that Zhuang Zhuo died and there was civil strife."

"Internal strife?" Dao Yuxin took out a short Dai sword and picked up the branches and leaves. She also learned her lesson and would not touch these branches and leaves with her hands. "Can an internal strife be unable to escape by anyone?"

Everyone gathered over and found that the walls were full of deep dents, and the same was true on the ground. Everyone understood what she meant, because after the fall of the ancient Dian Kingdom, I didn’t hear anyone could run out of it, and it was impossible for civil strife to do this. Moreover, the defensive formations and castings of the Golden City were extremely powerful. The traces on the wall were obviously at least left by the great masters who fought here, unless the great masters in the ancient Dian Kingdom’s squad at that time, but it could not explain why there was no survivor.

Walking along the corridor, it was indeed a dungeon. Because there were many cells, the doors were all incompletely open, and the prisoners seemed to have all run out. Chu Xunyu pried up a bronze prison door with a long sword, lifted it up with brute force, pointed to it and said, "The locks and formations are intact. There are not many corpses in the cell. It was obviously destroyed later. Someone should have unlocked the lock from outside in advance to release the prisoner."

"Be careful." Wangchen instructed to protect Miao Buyan, "No matter what we are looking for, we must go out of the dungeon. The battle here shows that this place is evil and dangerous."

The group held up torches, Chu Xunyu opened the way with a sword in front of him, and the range of fire projected on the wall was squirming in the dark little by little, and everyone could only hear their footsteps. They turned around and came to a hall soon. This was a circular hall with the main seat in the middle and a statue of swords, guns and sticks standing below, but now it was in a mess, with tables, chairs, benches and benches rolling all over the ground, the statue shattered all over the ground, Mu Yuan pointed to the wreckage below the pillar and said happily: "Look, this man was stabbed to death by the statue."

As soon as the words were finished, a broken bust in the corner suddenly changed, as if his head had turned. It was a dog-headed statue, holding a Dai knife in his hand, but it was just a few trembling on the left and right sides of the head. Everyone was startled, but Dao Yuxin did not move at all, frowned and looked at it, striding over, and directly broke its head and body with his hands. With a "click", he picked up the broken neck and looked at it, and threw it on the ground. A pool of black water flowed out of the broken mouth. Miao Buyan said in surprise behind: "Is this..."

"Yes." Dao Yuxin nodded, "This is a guard made by the ancient Dian Kingdom using the surrender technique. This should be the same as the statue in the drainage ditch, because the destruction was not thorough enough, and there was still some power left, but it could not do anything."

The door is open, no, to be precise, there should be only half of the door left, and it is forcibly opened by some force. Standing at the gate, looking around, the streets of Golden City can be seen in the view, even in the dark, carved beams and painted buildings, houses are erected, and the streets are spacious, but they are full of traces of fighting, covered with broken bricks and tiles and branches and leaves, covered by a layer of dark gray fog, and torches cannot shine far. Looking up, the entire Golden City buildings are covered layer by layer, like pagodas, with the widest below, and the area above is getting smaller and smaller. Because of the bad view, I can only see the bottom of the second floor, and I don’t know what it looks like above.

"What is that?" Mu Yuan's eyes were always like a thief. He saw the thick fog diagonally opposite. It was obvious that there was a round thing in the half-breaking ruins of the house. In the dark fog, he could only see a blurred shadow, which seemed very inconsistent with the surroundings. Chu Xunyu winked and walked carefully into the thick fog.

The thick fog is very strange, and it seems that there is no smell. Chu Xunyu doesn't feel anything even if he smells it hard. This is very troublesome. If there is a smell, he can tell whether it is poisonous or not. He knows how to use medicine, but he can't smell anything and there is no problem with it. You can't take all the antidotes in the world. Then you don't have to wait until you finish taking the medicine and you will die of bleeding from your seven orifices.

"What's this damn thing?" Mu Yuan exclaimed in front of her.

It turned out that it had reached the round black shadow that Mu Yuan saw, and it was an unheard of monster. It was a ball of things like a big meat ball, with eyes and nose on it, and long tentacles below it, as if a few tentacles supported a head, and fell into a ruin, with broken bricks covering part of it. It should be a mouth below, and there was half a human lower body wreckage in the mouth. The monster's body was filled with swords and guns and traces of being damaged by magic. The monster's corpse was also dry and decayed, and the eyes were as big as lanterns, leaving only deep depressions in the eye sockets.

"Before Zhuang died, he released a monster to eat people? Is there so many people to accompany him to bury him?" Miao Buyan exclaimed.

"Is this a monster cultivated by the sect technique?" Chu Xunyu picked up a piece of bronze and smashed it, but a hole was made in his big head.

Dao Yuxin took the torch and walked around it, shook his head: "As far as I know, I can't create any monsters. I can only feed them from the original animals. You are from the Medicine King's Mansion. Your whole family has been studying life for thousands of years. Is it easy to create a life?"

"Of course not." Chu Xunyu also shook his head, "but even if it is feeding, the monster's body is so strange that we have never heard of this thing in all the classics we know."

"And—" Dao Yuxin observed its big mouth and tentacles, "According to my estimate, this thing cannot have such powerful power to destroy the Golden City. I am 90% sure that it will destroy it in a cup of tea. It should not have much ability."

Wangchen asked hesitantly: "Can you avoid the world's crow and surrender technique just like the slaughter guard?"

Dao Yuxin sneered and pointed at the monster's body: "It has a wound from the clay technique. Even if the clay technique is useless, it can be injured by the sword. Unless the extremely powerful clay masters in the ancient Dian Kingdom are all idiots, they have never thought of any other way."
