Chapter 344: Castle Deep

As we moved on, the fog grew lighter and the massive city became more distinct.

What surprised me was that the ruined city actually had a moat, and the winding moat looked dark and dreary, and I don't know if it had not flowed for a long time and turned into rotten water.

The scene in front of me was somewhat familiar, and suddenly I remembered! Isn't this the city that was built in the elder's soul?

My heart beat faster, and I watched from afar, and found that there was still a difference between this abandoned capital city and the spiritual city built by the elders, although the elder castle also had a moat, but the biggest difference between the two was that the abandoned city was very ancient Chinese style, but the building shape was too old, and the elder's castle was similar to the West, with a high and pointed roof, so there was still a difference between the two.

But why do I have such a strong sense of familiarity? I looked at it again and again, and finally realized that the moat built by the elders was exactly the same as the ruined city!

I've read about a book that says that the scene in the dream may be a reflection and projection of the real world. Understood in this way, it is very likely that the moat built by the elders is a reference to this river!

Thinking back to those weird and horrible weirdos in the mud, I gasped in my heart, it would be terrible if those things appeared in the river!

As we approached the ruined city, it was strange that Lu Xiong did not come to meet us, and looking at the high walls of the capital and the hanging suspension bridge, I felt a little uneasy, and always felt that something was not right.

The people who followed us were going back, they left a few horses and carriages, and only one of their guides, and then they were going back.

I didn't understand them doing this, but the demigod replied: "I'm sorry Zhao Ye, this is what the tree god meant, he just let us send it to the ruined city." ”

I had no choice but to let them go, Ouyang and they were not satisfied, muttering for a long time just complaining, and the clansmen who led the way whispered to me: "Master Zhao, let's find something and leave quickly! This place is very troublesome!"

I asked him what was in trouble, but the people couldn't explain why, just trouble.

Chu Hong didn't care about the departure of his entourage, the important thing was that there was food and water in the carriage they left behind, as well as a lot of daily necessities, and at the minimum consumption, these foods could help us resist for ten days.

We rode cautiously onto the drawbridge, and as we passed by the dark moat, we smelled a strong stench that made us vomit.

The city gate was wide open, and the city gate was wrapped in a thick layer of iron sheet, but because of the long time, the iron sheet had rusted and peeled off most of it, and it looked a little embarrassed.

Riding into the city, my heart was full of shock, how much material and manpower it would take to build such a large city! And it was actually on a desert island with such harsh conditions! If this city was built by Xu Fu, it would be even more awesome!

Walking out of the city, you will find cramped streets and rows of shops and houses, all of which are built in an orderly manner, and the streets are lined with countless trees and vegetation.

The vitality of those trees is very tenacious, some directly pierce the houses on the side of the street, and some directly occupy the magpie's nest, those trees directly break out of the walls of the houses, and the wild vegetation in this place is completely different from the desolation and withering outside the city.

I asked the leader of the tribe, "Who contacted Lu Xiong before?"

The clansman humbly bowed his head and replied: "Back to Zhao Ye, it is me who contacted Lu Xiong, and those scouts knew that the elder had been killed, so they fled in all directions, and they didn't know where to go." ”

I listened to it and my heart tightened: "Is it possible for them to come back?"

The clansman shook his head: "It's not good, but I don't think they will come back." ”

Chu Hong couldn't help but ask: "What's so strange about this place? With such a strong city defense, it's a good place to live!"

The clansman bowed his head and replied: "Sister, you don't know, this place has been cursed by the gods, and it is dangerous to live here for a long time. ”

Wen Ruce came immediately: "What's the danger? You are just alarmist! I think this place is very safe!"

The tribesman laughed embarrassedly: "Before, some of us went here to hunt and play, they lived here for a few days, but some people were scared crazy, and then no one dared to come here, if it wasn't for the elder's death order, we would never have entered this ghost place!"

"Since this place is in danger, why don't you inform Lu Xiong!" I couldn't help but ask.

"Master Zhao! You arranged this matter! You asked us to come over and inform him to wait, and I also warned him, I asked him to set up a tent outside the city to be safer, but that old brother is very bold, he insists on going in and waiting for you, and I can't do it!"

Ouyang shook his head: "That guy seems to be really a money obsession!"

Entering the streets, it became difficult to ride horses, and the roads were blocked by broken beams, and the carriages could not enter, so we had to leave the horses and carts in a house not far from the city gates.

The house was very large, with a thick layer of ash inside, and the wooden furniture, though shaped, was mostly rotten and fell apart at the touch of it.

Closing the wooden door that was better than nothing, Chu Hong was a little worried: "Will these horses be stolen if they are placed here?"

Ouyang laughed: "There are no ghosts here, where did the thief come from?"

I felt that Chu Hong's worries were reasonable, so I asked Ouyang to stay and guard the horses, and we went to find Lu Xiong separately. Ouyang screamed when he heard this: "This can't work, why do you want me to stay? What about Wen Ru? How can he be with you?"

In order to take care of his emotions, I had to leave Wen Ruye behind, and then the four of us took to the streets and began to look for Lu Xiong.

According to the clansmen, according to the previous scout tracking, Lu Xiong had been walking on the road until he found the ruined city, but the scouts were afraid of the ruined city and did not dare to follow up, so they had to squat outside, and then let the news be delivered to the sacred tree.

At that time, the Divine Tree was facing the attack of the three armies, and the situation was very critical, and the elder's head was cut off, and for a while, the scouts stationed there immediately scattered and ran away.

I fought a sniper battle and returned to the sacred tree, and the clan reported the news to me, and I ordered them to inform Lu Xiong to wait in place, but the scout who came to report knew that the elder was killed and ran away with a smoke, so the clansmen took a few brothers to the ruined city, and happened to meet Lu Xiong outside the city, so they relayed the word to him, and Lu Xiong immediately agreed, and let us hurry over.

Seeing that Lu Xiong lived in the ruined city and did not die, the clansmen were relieved to return to the sacred tree to inform me of the situation, although the news was successfully conveyed, but he did not know Lu Xiong's specific residence.

So the next ridiculous scene was produced, a few of us shouted Lu Xiong's name in the streets and alleys, shouting one after another was lively, I walked in the ancient and dilapidated lanes, these ancient houses in front of me seemed to break time and space, making people feel like they were walking in ancient times.

We divided into four directions to search for Luxiong, but the abandoned city was too big and the ground conditions were complicated, so it was very difficult to find. After separating from Chu Hong and them, I used my divine power to leap around, trying to find Lu Xiong from a high place, although this ruined city is huge, but Lu Xiong wants to cook and eat after all, as long as he makes a fire, I will definitely be able to find him.

I ran and jumped for a long time, but I didn't find any clues, and in the process of searching, I even met with the people a few times. He also got nothing.

I stood on the weedy street and thought carefully, and decided to look at the center of the ruined city, maybe Lu Xiong would hide in a similar landmark!

Now that I have the blessing of divine power, I can move with ease, shuttling up and down the beams of those ancient houses, feeling a bit like ancient martial arts.

After climbing for a long time, standing on the high tiled roof, I could see that the ruined city was still full of buildings, like waves spreading to the city walls, and among these houses, there were many tall buildings and pagodas, and even huge trees stretched out, they stood one after another, like a dream-like existence.

I decided to start with those tall houses! After all, those places are so eye-catching, if Lu Xiong wanted me to find them, he would definitely choose those kind of houses!

I'll start by looking at a tall wooden building nearby!

The wooden building has five floors, and the corridors are colluded, and it looks very creative, but the roof has collapsed in half due to disrepair, revealing dinosaur-like pale beams.

Jumping down the collapsed slope, the fragments falling with me, I pulled out the long knife at my waist and walked forward cautiously.
