    172 Riding a black bull and flying on the copper furnace

    This is the sword that Yu Shihuang used when he committed suicide!It’s a sacred weapon, yes, but it’s also a murderous weapon.Rong Guangdao: “Yu Shihuang also has a big heart, or else he is deliberately scaring him to remind him, and actually gives Yulong to him. Does he dare? Hahahaha…”

    Xie Lian couldn’t help it anymore and said: “Not necessarily. Why do you want to be so dark?” After saying that, another talisman sealed his mouth.Just at this time, Pei Ming said from a distance: “Your Highness, Bloody Rain, are you two resting well? It’s time to put away the bed, let’s go on our way.”

    I didn’t take much rest at all, just chatting and chatting.

    The rest of the people stayed here, and Xie Lian, Huacheng, and Pei Ming set off. The Rain Master had mounts and offered to give them a ride to the foot of the copper furnace. Xie Lian thanked them happily.The black bull suddenly transformed and became two or three times its original size, able to accommodate six people.It hit the ground with its front hooves first and fell down. The rain master came up and sat in front.Pei Ming sat far away behind him.The last ones are Xie Lian and Hua Cheng.

    Xie Lian sat on it, and the black bull stood up. It was extremely tall. He touched the shiny black hair and said curiously: “Master Rain Master, this mount is really magical. Saburo seems to have mentioned, how did it become it?”

    The black cow spread its hooves and started running. The scenery on both sides quickly retreated backwards, so fast and so steady.Huacheng sat behind him, gently hugged his waist, as if afraid that he would fall, and said: “It was the door knocker of a side door of the Yulong Temple, the Royal Dojo of the Yushi Kingdom.”

    It turns out that there is a small custom in Yulong Temple. If you see the golden beast on the door knocker, go up and touch it to increase your popularity.Believers come here one after another, and most of them touch dragons, tigers, cranes and other fairy animals. Cows are generally not touched by anyone, so they are very deserted and lonely.Therefore, when Yu Shihuang was practicing meditation at Yulong Temple, he would touch the head of the cow every time he jumped into the water and passed the gate.The door knocker was tainted with her popularity, and after the Rain Master ascended, the cow flew with him.As for the others, none of them had a general.

    The black bull moved forward quickly, and Xie Lian’s body was brought back slightly, as if leaning on his arms. He smiled and said: “Sanlang really knows everything. It seems that no allusions can trouble you.”

    Huacheng also smiled and said: “Is there anything else you want to know, brother? I have nothing to say if you know.”

    Pei Ming sat in front, not talking to the Rain Master, but also listening to what was going on behind them, and said: “His Majesty the Ghost King is really right. Your Highness, why don’t you ask Xueyu Tanhua about his life experience and see if he can answer you?”

    Xie Lian’s smile immediately faded slightly.

    It is not polite to ask a ghost king about his life experience. To use an inappropriate analogy, in Xie Lian’s mind, the level of privacy is almost equivalent to asking a man’s size.He immediately changed the subject and said: “General Pei!”

    Pei Ming: “What?”

    Xie Lian: “It’s bumpy ahead, be careful!”

    Pei Ming: “Where is it?”

    As soon as he finished speaking, the black bull under the four people’s seats mooed for a long time, and Pei Ming was thrown off.He said in astonishment: “How can this be true?”

    It’s really unheard of and unseen.It’s okay to throw him away. People make mistakes and horses make mistakes. However, why don’t you throw away the one sitting in front or the one sitting in the back, but choose the one sitting in the middle?How is this usually the case?

    The ox kept moving, and Xie Lian turned his head in front, leaving behind a string of calls from afar: “Talked about the bumps ahead, General Pei, be careful…”

    After throwing Pei Ming down seven or eight times along the way, the four of them finally arrived at the foot of the copper furnace on the Rain Master’s guardian mount.

    Tonglu was originally a lush green mountain located in the center of the Royal Capital, with beautiful scenery, similar to Taicang Mountain, with the towering Royal Capital at its feet.The most prosperous royal city.

    This royal city was originally buried deep underground. It probably experienced several earthquakes and was shaken out again, returning to the surface.Xie Lian sat on the black bull and watched for a moment. Just as he was thinking about coming down, he found Huacheng standing below and stretched out a hand to him. With a thought in his heart, he gave his hand to him, turned over and said: “There must be a temple in the royal city.”

    Huacheng Road: “That’s for sure.”

    Although Pei Ming was thrown seven or eight times, he was worthy of being a god of war. He was very tenacious and walked without a limp. He even reached out and patted the cow’s neck.He said: “The tallest building in the city is either a palace or a temple.”

    Huacheng said: “No. The Wuyong Temple in the royal city is on the mountain.”

    He pointed.Sure enough, on the deep red mountainside, a corner of the cornice was exposed, and more parts were hidden in the thick red shadow.Xie Lian said: “Why is that mountain red…”

    Before the sentence was finished, suddenly, the cow roared loudly and shook its head violently. Several people had already moved forward and turned around in surprise.The cow was already rolling on the ground, and Master Yu held its rope tightly without letting go, saying: “What’s wrong?”

    The cow made a human voice: “Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh”

    Xie Lian was far away and couldn’t see the details clearly, but when the Rain Master heard the sound, he pulled out the Rain Dragon and slashed at the black bull with his sword!

    The light of the sword passed by, and something dark was thrown away and fell against the wall on the street, splashing out a huge scarlet blood flower.That’s a carcass rat!

    What was shouting just now was not the black cow, but the corpse rat that jumped up on the black cow while no one was paying attention and bit it hard.Although it is dying, it is still screaming: “Your Highness—Your Highness, Your Highness! Save me, save me, save me!”

    Bang!”

    Xie Lian’s heart suddenly lifted, and his scalp was numb, but Huacheng quickly stopped him behind him, raised his hand slightly, and the corpse rat was exploded into a ball of blood mist.And the pair of small eyes stuck to the wall still glowed with a fierce scarlet light.Huacheng Road: “Master Yu, I suggest you check your mount.”

    The rain master turned over the black cow’s hair and said: “Small injury.”

    However, more and more voices began to gather from all directions.

    Cough, cough, take me away, take me away!”

    It would have been better if I had escaped earlier…”

    Just don’t believe his lies, I died unjustly!”

    Brother, brother?Your Highness!”

    What is particularly clear about this sentence is Hua Cheng’s voice.Xie Lian came back to his senses and said: “Sorry!”

    Huacheng looked solemn and said: “Do you understand what they are saying again?”

    Xie Lian nodded.Huacheng reached out and covered his ears and said: “Don’t listen.They are not meant for you.”

    Xie Lian said: “I know.”

    Thousands of corpse rats spread toward the center like a black tide.This is the royal capital, and the population is denser than the previous underground city. There are more dead people, and the rats have more food. Therefore, their number and size become more impressive.Seeing that it is about to be surrounded by layers of layers.Pei Ming’s expression became serious, and his body was covered with a light protective aura. He said: “You go first, I will lead you away…”

    Unexpectedly, before he finished speaking, he saw a large number of corpse rats screaming and running to the side, and they were actually chasing the Rain Master!

    At some point, the rain master had mounted the black bull again and ran in the opposite direction.The cow had already run several feet away. It was not too fast, so fast that the corpse rats could not keep up, nor too slow, so slow that it was surrounded by corpse rats and chewed into a skeleton. Instead, it kept at a speed just enough to lead them and be chased by them. From a distance, he said: “You guys go first, I will lead them away.””

    The rain master sprinkled snow-white rice along the road while riding on the ox.After all, mice love rice by nature. They haven’t seen such white and plump rice in how many years. They swarm over it.What Pei Ming wanted to do was preceded by Rain Master, and his expression was extremely subtle.Huacheng loosened his hands and said: “Brother, let’s go.”

    Xie Lian got a headache when he heard the voices of those corpse rats. He breathed a sigh of relief when he couldn’t hear them and nodded.Pei Ming turned around and said, “Just leave like that?”

    Huacheng Road: “What if?”

    Pei Ming frowned: “The Rain Master can’t handle it, isn’t he acting recklessly just running away like this?After thinking for a while, he finally said: “Your Highness, you go first.”We will meet up at the temple in time!”After saying that, he chased after him. Xie Lian said strangely: “Why does General Pei think that Rain Master can’t handle it?The situation just now was clearly seen. Lord Yu Master was clearly doing everything he could, right?”

    Huacheng smiled and said: “Maybe I can’t stand being protected by a woman.”

    Seizing the opportunity, the two passed through the royal city and countless empty shells of petrified people, and ran towards the mountain.

    Finally set foot on this copper furnace.

    The reason why this mountain looks like it is stained with blood from a distance is because the large forests on the mountain are red.It’s clearly not maple, but it’s as red as maple, the color of blood.Xie Lian also faintly smelled the smell of blood. I am afraid that their nutrients include resentment and human blood.

    This fourth Wuyong Temple is built on a slightly protruding rock halfway up the mountainside of Tonglu. It is the largest of the four temples and the one that is relatively well-preserved.There are many petrified people in the hall, with different postures.The two went straight to the main hall, and when they entered, they saw that there were indeed murals on the walls.However, Huacheng took a look and said: “It seems that someone is ahead of us.”

    In the main hall, there is only one mural. The other two walls are intact, but the walls have been smashed to pieces.

    This was the first time, Xie Lian was slightly stunned and said: “Who did it?”

    They don’t even know who painted the mural, and there is yet another unsolved mystery about who destroyed the mural.But hurry up and take a look at the mural first., I only glanced at it, but before I took a closer look, all the cold hairs on Xie Lian’s back stood up instantly.

    “What is this!”

    This mural is completely different from the ones in the first three temples.There is only one person on the screen, but the color is dark, and the lines and face are extremely distorted. It is impossible to tell what this person looks like. He can only see that he is a civilian in ragged clothes.

    This is nothing. What makes Xie Lian’s hair stand on end is that this man seemed to be in pain and tore his clothes to reveal his body.

    And there were actually three faces on his body, each of them as twisted as his own!

    Human face epidemic!

    Under the huge impact, Xie Lian accidentally hugged his head and murmured: “…Exactly the same.Exactly the same!”

    Prince Wuyong also encountered the human face epidemic!

    Why is it that this person’s experiences are almost exactly the same as his?!

    Seeing that the situation was not good, Huacheng stabilized him and said: “Your Highness, stop looking now.”

    After thinking for a moment, he pulled Xie Lian over, pressed him into his arms, and said in a strong yet gentle tone: “…Okay!Your Highness, listen to me.Listen to me… The first few murals were developed in chronological order. The previous one was when Prince Wuyong built a sky bridge, and the next one must have developed immediately after.But this mural is not connected to the previous one at all, and the cause and effect cannot be connected, right?”

    Just now, Xie Lian was mainly shocked because the image of the human facial epidemic was too impactful and the shadows were too heavy. Now he reacted quickly and immediately started thinking: “Yes… I must have missed it in the middle.Someone came before us and destroyed two other murals.”

    Huacheng Road: “Since this person destroyed the other two murals, why didn’t he destroy this one too?Why leave this one alone?Why is the picture of the human face epidemic the only one?”

    Xie Lian said: “Two possibilities.First, he felt that it didn’t matter whether he kept this painting or not.The other two pictures are more afraid of being seen by me.”

    Huacheng Road: “What about the second one?”

    Xie Lian said slowly: “Actually, this person destroyed all three paintings.The one left alone was actually painted later and is fake.”

    Huacheng Road: “Yeah.In fact, maybe all the murals along the way are lies.We’re very close to the answer, but until then, don’t make any guesses, okay?”

    After being buried in his arms for a long time, Xie Lian finally dug out the terrifying mural from his mind. Only then did he notice the posture of the two people, and quickly prepared to pull himself out of Huacheng’s arms, saying: “I’m sorry, Sanlang, I was a little excited just now…”

    Huacheng did not let him leave, but hugged him tighter and said with a smile: “Nothing to be embarrassed about.But…”

    He lowered his head and said: “Actually, there is a third possibility.”

    The lower half of Xie Lian’s face was buried in his shoulder, and Hua Cheng’s voice was right next to his ear, so low that no one could hear it clearly except him.

    He held his breath slightly and heard Huacheng say in a deep voice: “The third possibility is that this person didn’t want to destroy all the murals, but he didn’t have time.He had just destroyed the other two when we arrived.And now, he is hiding in this hall.”
