A city appeared in the gray and black plains. It appeared like a building block placed on a huge carpet, and it was rotten and moldy.
The Bronze Bird Hall of the Suspended City.
"Master, that is what I call Linyuan City." Medusa said, pointing to the ruins of the ancient city in the holographic projection.
Xia Lei's eyes moved to the ancient city in the holographic projection. It was actually a ruin with a bit of the city's outline still visible. It is very huge, covering dozens of square kilometers. Even if it were placed on Earth, it would be a medium-sized city with a population of one million.
"Why did the Night Watch destroy this city?" Xia Lei was a little curious. "Across the 40,000-kilometer-long abyss, the ghost people could not threaten the interests of the Night Watch, but the Night Watch destroyed this place. Beautiful Desha, do you know why?”
Medusa thought about it for a moment, "A long time ago, I met a few fleeing ghost people. I happened to be very full that time, so I saw how pitiful they were so I stopped eating them. I turned into the appearance of a goddess, and then helped They helped them solve a little trouble. Later, they talked about the story of the Night Watchmen's destruction of Linyuan City, saying it was... saying it was... "
She seemed to have forgotten the important content, but she remembered the "goddess' appearance" very clearly.
Long said: "I said it was your mother, I said it was, do you really think you are some kind of goddess?"
Medesha pointed at the tall-headed dragon boy and said, "Master, look at him."
Xia Lei, "..."
He felt that what he got was not two ancient and powerful creatures, but an aunt who sold vegetables in the market and a butcher who killed pigs.
"Are there any ghosts living in this city?" Shenyue Ruyi said.
"I don't know. Can't you find out if you go down and take a look?" Medusa said: "Master, let's go down and take a look. I'm familiar with this place."
Xia Lei was a little moved. There may be surviving ghost people living in the ruins of Linyuan City, and he may also find the reason why the Night Watchers attacked and destroyed Linyuan City. On the surface, the Night Watcher did not need any reason to destroy Linyuan City, but he had an intuition that there was some ulterior secret hidden in the Night Watcher's aggressive war against the ghost people, and that secret was very likely It has something to do with the abyss and that mission.
Think tank Amido said: "Master, I do not recommend landing and exploring this ruined city. When we left, the powerful dark energy was destroying the energy barrier when we left. It could break the energy barrier on one side, and then It can break through the energy barrier on the other side. This place is not far from the abyss. Once we stop, the pursuers of the Black Sun Empire may catch up with us."
Xia Lei thought for a while and then made a decision, "Continue moving forward in the floating city. I will go into the city to have a look. Medesha and Long, you two follow me. Shenyue, you are responsible for protecting the floating city. If you encounter any situation, you will You can come over as quickly as possible and let me know.”
With this decision, the floating city continued to fly forward, and Xia Lei brought Medusa and Long to the ruins of Linyuan City.
Linyuan City had walls, but most of them were destroyed. Although a "long, long" time has passed, you can still see traces of being blasted away by dark energy or powerful dead beasts when walking at the foot of the city wall.
After passing the ruins of a collapsed city wall, we came across a street. The streets paved with stone slabs can vaguely recognise what they looked like back then, but the cracks between the stones are covered with gray weeds. Dense wild grass covers almost half of the stone slabs, and walking on it gives you a soft feeling like walking on grass.
Most of the buildings on both sides of the street have collapsed, and the wood has been completely weathered, leaving only large and small square stone bricks. Occasionally, you can see relatively complete houses with frame holes for doors and windows, but there is nothing inside. After all, "a long, long time" has passed, and even the ceramics have weathered into sand. The reason why those stone bricks survived without obvious weathering is because most of them are stones from the past.
It is precisely because of the large number of stones of the past that there is a very special energy field here. Walking among the ruins of Linyuan City, Xia Lei had the illusion of walking in the past time and space. Sometimes he even had the illusion that he was walking home from school. Dad Xia Changhe has already prepared dinner and is waiting for him to come home for dinner. However, this illusion is very slight and can be easily eliminated.
One street after another was left behind, and the city square of Linyuan City appeared in front. It was a large square, covering an area of almost several square kilometers, and could accommodate millions of people gathering. In other words, the entire ghost people of Linyuan City could gather here.
Standing next to the square, Xia Lei couldn't help but secretly say in his heart: "There can't be some reason for building such a big square that can accommodate all the people in the city to gather here? Is it related to some belief?"
It is impossible to build such a large square for square dancing or for people to walk. I don’t know why Xia Lei’s mind came up with the image of the pilgrimage to Mecca on earth. It is the largest religious pilgrimage on earth. Millions of believers flock to the holy land of Mecca in the twelfth month. Pilgrimage, the scene is not unspectacular. And this square is obviously larger and can accommodate more people for religious activities similar to the pilgrimage to Mecca.
If the ghost people worship a certain god here, who would it be
"Medisha, what's the name of this square?" Xia Lei asked casually.
Medesa shook her head, "I don't know."
"Then do you know that ghost people have religious beliefs? If so, what gods do they believe in?" Xia Lei changed the question.
"Giggle..." Medesa smiled innocently, "Of course she is the goddess of sex and love, that's me."
Xia Lei frowned slightly, feeling that his question was unnecessary. How could a being like Medesa care about the purpose of a square in ruins? How could it care about the religious beliefs of the ghost people
Xia Lei's eyes moved to the opposite side of the square. Under the dim sky, there stood a pile of huge rocks and several huge stone pillars. Those stone pillars were not complete, some were broken off, some were crooked, and they might fall down at any time.
It looked like a destroyed temple.
Xia Lei's heart moved and he said, "Let's go there and have a look."
It is indeed a temple. With the size of the several huge stone pillars still standing and the huge stones lying on the ground, it is not difficult to imagine what it once looked like. It was quite majestic.
After a general observation, Xia Lei found no clues about the ghost people's religious beliefs. There are no sculptures related to religious beliefs, and no statues of gods remain, just a pile of huge stones. And they are all stones of the past, but the quality is very low. They are the lowest stones of the past, and the energy of past attributes contained in them is extremely low.
Xia Lei's eyes moved to a pile of collapsed stones. He released a trace of fuzzy energy and then plunged into the pile of piled stones. The clairvoyant vision will encounter the obstruction of the stone of the past. Even if clairvoyance can be completed in the end, it is still a laborious task and is far inferior to using energy detection.
That trace of fuzzy energy shuttled through the pile of rocks, and then fed back to him the information inside the pile of rocks. His brain simulated and constructed the image inside the pile of rocks based on the information collected by that trace of fuzzy energy. He soon discovered several statues of gods among the pile of stones. There were black statues, some male and female, some without heads, some without hands, some without legs, and some broken into two pieces and fell to the ground.
A relatively well-preserved statue of the god was completely constructed in his brain. At that moment, Xia Lei's breathing stopped, and his open mouth could not be closed.
What was simulated in his brain was the "First Day" of one of the six Creators.
He had seen six creators in the image information stored in the rune blood crystal ball, and remembered the characteristics of each of them, from the first day to the sixth day. Therefore, when he constructed the idol of the first day in his brain, he almost instantly recognized it as what it looked like on the first day.
"This... the god that the ghost people worship and believe in is actually the creator of the spirit tribe. What is going on?" Xia Lei was shocked, and he couldn't figure it out.
He was shocked, but his brain did not stop constructing images of the other five statues. The images of the other five statues were quickly constructed, and without exception they corresponded to the second, third, fourth, fifth and sixth days respectively.
The appearance of the six statues of gods has given the answer. The gods that the ghost people believe in are the six creators of the spirit tribe. This also shows that the six creators have really been to the dark world of death, and not just for a visit, they have done a lot of things here.
Then, he had a deeper association, "Six creators came to the dark world of death to carry out their only mission. But they failed in the end, and the World Box was shattered, so the subsequent mission to find the fragments began!"
What did the six creators do in the dark world of death
Why do ghost people believe in six creators
He solved some confusions, but he had these two more questions.
Whoosh!
The sound of breaking through the air suddenly came.
Before Xia Lei could make a move, the dragon cut across and punched him.
boom!
A huge bone spear instantly turned into powder.
But this is just the beginning.
Whoosh whoosh!
Bone spears and bone arrows flew from the ruins on the other side of the temple, like raindrops.
At this moment, Xia Lei also saw the person throwing the bone spear and shooting the arrow. Perhaps he couldn't be called a human being. Their bodies are very short, about the same size as the butterfly people, but they have no wings. They are all gray, exactly the same as the main gray color of the Eternal Plains. They were naked and only wore grass skirts around their waists. Their upper bodies and thighs had terrifying muscles. They also have a common feature, that is, without exception, they have long and thick beards and bloody eyes.
Is this the legendary ghost people
