The cornerstone of Amami Castle peeled off layer by layer. No matter how good the stone is, after so many years of wind erosion, formation and spiritual power, it has become brittle and fragile. If it hadn't been maintained by sacrifices for many years, it would not have been able to support it now.
The people in the inner city were alright, they knew something was wrong when the earthquake happened. What followed was the collapse of the formation covering Tianjian City. In the past, this formation protected Tianjian City, and also restricted people's access, isolating Tianjian City from the outside world.
Suddenly this layer of barrier disappeared without a trace. Some people stared at the sky in a daze, but more people thought—the formation is gone, and Tianjian City will collapse again. What
If the formation is still there, they will not be able to leave even if they want to.
It's different now.
Ordinary people in the outer city were startled by this vision, crying and shouting everywhere.
Lao Ge of the tea shop stretched out his hand to push the door - before he could touch it, the door shook and fell outwards.
Lao Ge looked blankly at the house he had lived in for decades. The walls seemed to be piled up of flour, and when the wind blown, they turned into dust. The tiles laid on top poured down with a clatter.
Not only his house, but also the neighbors far and near, and even the wall of the inner city not far away, seemed to have turned into a pile of earth and sand overnight, and now it seemed to be soaked in water, crisp and collapsed.
People ran around in panic, like headless chickens. But Tianjian City has never had access to the outside world. Those cultivators can come in and out by flying boats, swords, and birds. These ordinary people come and go in circles in a radius of tens of miles all their lives. Their homes are gone, and Tianjian City will be turned into ruins in the blink of an eye, but they don't know where to escape.
The ground shook again, Lao Ge's legs went limp, he couldn't stand up, and sat down on the ground leaning on the wooden stakes outside the door that were usually used to tie the animals.
The chaos in the inner city is worse than that in the outer city. When a catastrophe is imminent, some people still think about old enemies and personal grievances, and take advantage of the chaos. In this kind of chaos, everyone was at a loss, but now that someone started hacking and killing, they were even more panic-stricken all day long. Some ran away in fright, and some got involved in the fight in a daze.
Wang Mengchen knew better than others.
The more clearly I know, the more despair I feel.
I am afraid that Tianjian City will not be able to see the sun tomorrow.
He was not like the others led by Elder Wu who focused on rushing upwards and took his life in vain. Originally, Elder Wu was suppressing them to move to Shanshantang, killing both Huangqi and Bupleurum. Most of Wang Mengchen had no choice but to follow him, and he would never want to work for Elder Wu.
The master has not returned... which is a good thing. Master is outside now, which is much safer than in the city.
When he slipped out in the chaos, it was the moment when the formation on the altar was broken.
When he left Qianshantang, he had asked Junior Brother Mao to tell him quietly that if there was any abnormality, don't worry about anything else, just take the two prescriptions and pharmacopoeia with you, and take people with you. It doesn't matter anything else, as long as Danfang and people are there. Junior Brother Mao lacks flexibility, but he is very honest and honest, and he will definitely do what he is told without compromise. If it were someone else, they might be reluctant to part with one or the other, and they would lose sight of the other, or they would only care about running for their own lives, regardless of the lives of others.
Wang Mengchen can't just run for his own life now.
He made an agreement with Elder Wu, he provided Elder Wu with the young master's information, and Elder Wu spared Astragalus and Bupleurum. At the same time, Wang Mengchen also agreed to the original "young master" to help him leave the city.
But now it seems that it doesn't matter whether his promise is fulfilled or not, because the destruction of Tianjian City is just around the corner, and without his help, those who want to escape will naturally seize this opportunity.
Wang Mengchen cleared up the direction, and rushed straight to the place where Huangqi Bupleurum was in the chaos.
He couldn't care less about all the chaos he saw along the way.
The Changqing main hall has collapsed. The usually majestic main hall now looks dilapidated. The Shouyuan Pavilion, known as the "Ting of Immortal Jade", has become a piece of smashed rubble.
And Xiangyu Pavilion, Drunken Flower Pond, where he usually hangs around...
All gone.
Wang Mengchen didn't care about so much, he just drove forward at full speed.
Things are dead, but people are the most important. This is a saying that Master often said, and Wang Mengchen also deeply agrees.
As long as people are alive, as the saying goes, as long as there are green hills, there is no fear of no firewood. This green hill is a person, not some other medicinal herb treasure. Those dead things come and go, and they can be found again when they are gone, but if there are no people, then everything will stop.
People in the ground don't know about the turmoil above Tianjian City.
Of course, if you can't see it, you can guess it.
Li Fulin's fatigue was seen by the two apprentices, Mo Chen expected that the master must have exhausted too much effort in breaking the formation, and he couldn't even stand upright right now.
The master traveled thousands of miles to Tianjian City for them, and destroyed the altar regardless of himself, so the younger brother can only rely on him to protect him at this moment.
Mo Chen moved a step without a trace.
It took Li Fulin a moment later to realize that he was being guarded by his apprentice.
He understood the apprentice's intentions, but he felt that he hadn't fallen to the point of being protected by the apprentice.
But the problem now is not that the big apprentice wants to protect him, but the situation of the young apprentice.
What exactly happened, Li Fulin couldn't figure it out.
It's the lack of clarity that makes it even more frightening.
This child Xiaodong is too gullible, Li Fulin has seen how difficult this vine is just now - the mess and casualties in this place also fully illustrate the situation.
But this child Xiaodong was holding the vine with his bare hands, as if he was holding a walking stick.
"Think of a way to get out of here first."
Before he finished speaking, there was another violent vibration under his feet, and the roar became louder and closer.
The vine in Xiaodong's hand slid out of his palm and plunged into the ground under their feet. Huge cracks spread rapidly from the place where they stood to the surroundings, and the cracks were as dense as a spider's web. The already dilapidated walls and ground became even more fragmented, and even the dome above was cracking, and large pieces of rubble fell down like dense raindrops. The ground beneath his feet also disintegrated piece by piece, falling downward.
Li Fulin felt the wind blowing from the crack.
The wind with the breath of the sea.
In this situation, he can still have fun while suffering, and now he doesn't have to worry about where to escape.
Xiaodong tightly grasped the senior brother's hand, looking around in a daze.
After breaking the formation just now, Mrs. Yan was unable to get up, and she was inconvenient to move, and she was not far from them. But now Xiaodong couldn't see her figure.
Where did Mrs. Yan go
Could it be that she has...
Xiaodong looked down.
These cracks are like black bottomless mouths, has Madam Yan already fallen
She has always denied that he is Xiaodong's mother, but anyone with a discerning eye can see that there are similarities in their appearance.
No matter what, Xiaodong can't just ignore her like a stranger.
What's more, she did not hesitate to risk her life to destroy this altar, in the final analysis, it was Xiaodong who benefited.
"Where is Mrs. Yan?"
Li Fulin was also startled: "Just now..."
But now it's clearly gone.
He and Xiaodong master and apprentice wanted to go together.
Madam Yan won't fall, will she
Li Fulin swayed and tried to stand still: "I'll go over there and look for it."
"Master, you..."
The ground under their feet was destroyed even more thoroughly, and finally completely cracked. Xiaodong felt that the soles of his feet were empty, and he fell straight down.
Mo Chen kept holding onto his hand tightly and didn't let go. He opened his arms and hugged Xiaodong tightly in his arms, while circulating his true energy to protect the two of them.
At the moment of falling, Li Fulin had enough time to give Mo Chen a "don't worry" gesture, lightly tapped his toes on a broken stone beam, and flew in another direction.
Mo Chen guessed that Master was going to find Madam Yan's whereabouts.
With the conduct of the master, at such a critical moment of life and death, he would not be able to leave others behind to find his own way of life.
There was also a trace of doubt in Mo Chen's heart.
If Madam Yan really fell, it shouldn't be so silent. After all, they should not be far away at that time. Even though Mrs. Yan was exhausted, she did not lose consciousness, she was awake. In case of danger, as long as she speaks out, Li Fulin and Mo Chen should be able to help in time.
Elder Wu and the others have already fled in all directions, so it is impossible to plot against her.
Thinking about it this way, did Mrs. Yan not want to have any more contact with them and left by herself
That's right! Mr. Wan also disappeared, and the two of them probably left together.
Xiaodong held onto Mo Chen's arm tightly and did not dare to let go. Tianjian City was originally suspended in the air, but now they are falling into the boundless darkness below. Protected by Mo Chen's true essence, the wind is still strong and fierce, blowing on his face like a knife. Without this protection, maybe they would be cut to pieces by the strong wind like a blade.
"Don't worry." Mo Chen said quickly: "Mrs. Yan should be with Mr. Wan. The two of them take care of each other, and nothing will happen."
Xiaodong's eyes were wide open, as if very confused.
Mo Chen knew that he had listened to everything he said.
It's just... Whether it's Mr. Wan or Mrs. Yan, they were supposed to be Xiaodong's relatives, but one cheated his death, and the other refused to admit his relationship with Xiaodong. This made Mo Chen couldn't help feeling sorry for Xiaodong .
"Xiaodong?"
"Eldest brother..." Xiaodong's eyes were still fixed on something behind Mo Chen, as if he saw something strange that could attract his full attention.
Mo Chen turned his head.
They didn't know how long they stayed at the altar, but at least they spent most of the day. It was already night, and Tianjian City used to be in the clouds, and it looked completely like a city in the sky.
But now the city is collapsing, completely shattered, flying swords, flying boats and wailing birds are fleeing in all directions. (to be continued)
