Chapter 769: The Great City of the Desolation (Part II)
"Could it be that this place was really built by the gods?"
Walking around the city wall for most of the day, although they saw many traces of human existence, the three of them never saw the city gate, and at this time Peng Bin also believed what Fang Yi said, because except for the immortal means, it is absolutely impossible for mortals to create such a majestic giant city.

"There are so many lost records in human history. When Fang Yi was walking, he had been looking up at the patterns on the city wall, but the city wall was so high that it was difficult for him to get a glimpse of the whole leopard, and he couldn't see any clues.
"Human beings are not the masters of this earth, but the immortals and Buddhas are the ...... of existence"
Long Wanda suddenly interjected and said: "I participated in an international forum on environmental protection last year, and we human beings are on the road to extinction......
"Old Dragon, don't be alarmist, how can we humans perish?"
Peng Bin glanced at Long Wanda dissatisfied, and said angrily: "Don't listen to some theories that those people have nothing to do all day long, what earth is destroyed and human beings disappear, it's all nonsense......"
"The earth will perish, but humanity will not necessarily disappear. Looking at the giant city in front of him, Long Wanda, who had always been silent, was also shocked, and he talked more.
"Human beings seem to be very powerful, they can build tunnels in the mountains, they can use scientific and technological means to land on the moon, and it seems that they can change the living environment of the entire earth, but in fact, human beings have not really understood the earth......"
In addition to being the national teacher of Thailand, Long Wanda is also the president of the Thai Academy of Sciences, because he knows many things that ordinary people can't know.
"Do you know what the diameter of the earth is? It is more than 12,000 square kilometers, but human beings can only drill a depth of about 10 kilometers on the surface of the earth at most......
Our exploration of the earth has not even reached one percent, and there are still 99 percent unknown, if a nuclear bomb breaks out to destroy the earth, it is only ignorant people who think so, and the people who destroy can only be human beings.
Because even if all the nuclear bombs in the world are detonated together, they will only be able to harm the surface of the earth, and that kind of influence will not even hit a hundred kilometers inside the earth......
The earth is just a speck of dust in the starry sky, and human beings are nothing, all the laws of the universe are generated by causes, and everything is governed by the laws of cause and effect, and only by believing in the Buddha can we transcend the Three Realms and Six Realms......"
Long Wanda is indeed a descending master, but he is also a master of Buddhism, who was originally talking about scientific things, but he changed the topic to promote Buddhism, and Peng Bin and Fang Yi rolled their eyes when they heard it.
Especially Fang Yi, he knew from the information he got from the city wall that the gods who built this city were definitely not people in Buddhism, and looking at his dress and ability to turn over rivers and seas, he was a bit like an ancient witch, and he had nothing to do with Buddhism at all.
"Okay, I said Lao Long, among the three of us, one Buddha and one non-believer, don't preach Buddhism here, let's find this gate first......
Peng Bin was afraid that Long Wanda would give him another long speech, so he quickly interrupted Long Wangda's words, unlike Fang Yi's belief in Taoism, Peng Bin only believes in strength, in other words, even if he follows Fang Yi to cultivate now, it does not mean that he believes in Taoist teachings.
"What the eldest brother said is, let's find the city gate first......" Fang Yi echoed Peng Bin's words, now the three of them are grasshoppers on a rope, there is no need to start these senseless disputes because of different beliefs.
"Even if you find the city gate, I'm afraid it won't be so easy to enter, right?"
Peng Bin looked up at the towering city wall, and couldn't help but sigh, with Peng Bin's tenacious and resolute temperament, he also felt extremely helpless here, and his sighs in the past few days were more than the decades outside combined.
In Peng Bin's view, such a huge city must be inhabited by immortals, those people can fly in the sky, maybe there is no city gate at all, as long as they fly into the city from the sky, even if there is a city gate, it may not be built on the ground.
However, things obviously surprised Peng Bin again, and after walking along the city wall for more than two hours, the three people walking side by side stopped at the same time, because a hundred and ten meters in front of them, there were two arm-thick iron chains, which were inserted diagonally into the ground from the city wall.
"City gates?"
Fang Yi and Peng Bin glanced at each other, and the two of them rushed wildly in unison, the distance of one hundred and ten meters flashed, and when the two of them stood on the edge of the chain, their eyes showed a look of surprise.
This is indeed where the city gate is, and the city gate is not built in mid-air as Peng Bin imagined, although this city gate with a height of more than ten meters is much taller than the city gate in the history of the outside world, but it is within the acceptable range of Fang Yi and Peng Bin.
The two chains they saw, I don't know what material they were made of, they were as thick as an adult's arm, and their whole body was dark and inconspicuous, and they didn't know how they were fixed to the city wall, but the part on the ground was set on two iron rings.
"This chain is pulling the city gate...... Fang Yi observed it carefully, and suddenly understood in his heart, if he guessed correctly, when the iron chain was put away, the city gate was closed, and when the iron chain was put down, the city gate was wide open.
Looking at the light at the end of a long corridor in the city gate that was more than twenty meters high and the buildings that he couldn't see clearly, Fang Yi knew that this city gate was open, and he could enter this huge city by walking in from the city gate in front of him.
"Luckily, the gates are open!"
Although he was full of thoughts, but found a place to enter the giant city, Peng Bin still grinned, he is the kind of person who wants to open up, even if he can't find a way out, then when he enters the city, he can at least find some pots and pans and other objects, and he doesn't have to chew wild vegetables every day.
"Big brother, even if this city gate is not opened, we can still enter......" Fang Yi glanced at Peng Bin speechlessly.
"How do you get in? climb in?" Peng Bin looked up at the high city wall and said, "Anyway, I can't climb in, grandma, if I fall down from here, won't I have to break my bones?"
"This city gate is made of wood, do you think it can be preserved like this iron chain until now?" Fang Yi spoke, his right foot slammed on the ground, and suddenly a stream of dust flew up from the ground, and the original thick city gate had already turned into dust.
"Well, it's not just wood, it's a gate covered with iron......
After Fang Yi stepped on the ground, he felt that the soles of his feet were a little hard, and he squatted down to clean up the dust, only to find that behind the wooden door, there was a thick layer of iron plates, which were as dark as the material of the iron chains, and there was no rust after endless years.
"Don't study this, let's get inside......"
Peng Bin patted Xia Yi on the shoulder, and said with a somewhat nervous face: "Brother, do you think there will be any living people in here?" Or is it that the people who lived here before were not people at all, but other creatures?"
Even a bold person like Peng Bin still has a trace of fear of the unknown, although he knows that he can know the situation inside when he walks into the city gate, but Peng Bin is a little hesitant at this moment.
"Even if there is, I'm afraid I'll be dead a long time ago, let's go in......"
Fang Yi took a deep breath, he would be in a similar mood to Peng Bin, he had been in this place for many days, the giant city in front of them was their only hope of leaving here, and it was also the place to uncover the mystery of this mysterious space.
Thinking of the scene of the gods and men he had seen in his mind before, Fang Yi didn't know if there was any danger in this giant city, so Fang Yi was also a little panicked in his heart while looking forward to it, because in this place, they were really as small as ants for half a year.
"I'll go in first......" Long Wanda, who had been silent, said.
"Let's ...... together" Fang Yi suddenly laughed, as the saying goes, it is a blessing or a curse, and it can't be avoided if it is a disaster, and with the kind of great magical powers of the ancients, there is no need to leave any traps in the city gate.
The city gate is more than 20 meters high, the width is also one or twenty meters, there are four or five cars side by side, walking in the city gate corridor, the three people seem so inconspicuous, the empty corridor is unusually quiet, even Peng Bin their breathing can be heard clearly.
"This city is definitely not something that can be built by technology, even if there is alien technology, I'm afraid it can't be done......"
Walking in the corridor, Peng Bin was muttering to himself, standing outside and looking inside, he only felt that the corridor was very long, but after walking in, he found that the city gate corridor alone was hundreds of meters long, which also represented the thickness of the city wall of the giant city, which was also more than 100 meters.
Because they were afraid of any traps in the corridor, Fang Yi and the others did not walk fast, and they were cautious in every step, but they were obviously too worried, except for the footprints of a few of them left on a thick layer of dust on the ground, nothing happened.
"This ...... There's a mountain in there?"
When Fang Yi and the others came to the end of the road, the three of them were stunned, because in their original imagination, there should be various buildings in the city, but what they didn't expect was that what they saw was a stone mountain hundreds of meters high.
The reason why it is said to be a stone mountain is because this mountain is the same as the great plain outside, there are no trees with a height of one meter, except for the withered yellow grass, it is the bare rocks outside, although the mountain is not high, but it is stretched for I don't know how many kilometers, Fang Yi They only saw this small part of the place facing the city gate.
It is precisely because there is no tree shelter that Fang Yi and the others can clearly see that in the middle of the mountain, there are layers of stone steps that slowly ascend, leading from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, and there are some buildings similar to houses on the top of the mountain.
The reason why they saw this mountain at a glance was naturally because this stone mountain was the tallest, almost as far as the city wall, but when Fang Yi and the others looked away, they suddenly found that in the huge space at the foot of the mountain, there were also dense layers of stone buildings.
Dozens of meters away from Fang Yi and the others, it was like a town, with stone houses of different heights and neat streets, but all the places were empty as far as the eye could see, and there was nothing else on those streets except dust.
"This ...... This is a stone town, right?" After looking at it for a while, Peng Bin said, "Could it be that all the stones outside have been gathered here? Grandma's, all of them are stone houses......
As Peng Bin said, everywhere Fang Yi and the others came into view, all they saw were stone buildings, maybe there were trees growing between these stones before, but now they are all gone, which also makes those stone buildings more and more conspicuous.
"Fortunately, I thought this place was a giant country, and there were giants living in it......"
Seeing the specifications of those buildings, Fang Yi was also relieved, because the city walls outside were too majestic, and Fang Yi, who didn't know much about the ancients, was really wondering in his heart just now if they had come to the Giant Country.
"It's very likely that such a high wall outside was built to defend against some enemy. Long Wanda said.
"It's possible ......"
Fang Yi's heart moved when he heard this, he saw that there seemed to be some patterns engraved on the wall before, a bit like a formation, maybe the entire giant city was a big array, but now it has lost its effectiveness.
"What do you want to do so much? Shout at the top of your voice, hey...... Anyone!"
Suddenly, Peng Bin shouted into the city, this voice Peng Bin used all his strength, and the deafening sound suddenly shook the dust around them, and it spread far away, and Fang Yi and Long Wangda, who were completely defenseless, were startled by him.
"Big brother, can you say hello and shout again?"
Fang Yi raised his vigilance and looked at the city, and at the same time shouted at Peng Bin complainingly, not to mention, Peng Bin's actions really surprised Fang Yi, and his thunderous voice almost made Fang Yi jump.
Long Wanda's concentration was obviously a little higher than Fang Yi's, but the look on his face also changed, in his opinion, a few people should quietly enter to check, instead of shouting like this to startle the snake.
"What are you afraid of? if a fairy comes out, then you can pinch us to death with your hand......" Peng Bin said with a nonchalant face: "If there is no one in it or all of them are dead, you will burn this place down with a fire, and no one will care......"
"Okay, big brother, you have a point...... 7”
Hearing Peng Bin's words, Fang Yi was speechless, because what should have appeared would definitely appear, and it would not be avoided because of their caution, so if you think about it, Peng Bin is indeed not wrong, but he himself has complicated things.
"There shouldn't be any living people, right?"
Don't look at what Peng Bin said arrogantly, but his heart is still a little empty, and after waiting for a while and not seeing any movement in the city, Peng Bin said: "Let's go, let's go in and see what kind of place this is?"
"This city is too big, should we look at it separately?"
Long Wanda suddenly said: "This place covers an area of at least dozens of square kilometers, I suggest that we go separately, and then agree on a time to come back and meet, what do you think?"
Long Wanda knew that if there was really something good in this city, if he and Peng Bin Fang Yi were together, he might be able to get a little benefit, but it was definitely left by the two of them, but if he walked alone, this benefit would be completely his own.
"Let's be together, even if there are no living people here, but what if there are traps or something?"
After hearing Long Wanda's words, Peng Bin shook his head without hesitation, "A few of us can help each other together, and we can rescue in time in case of danger, Lao Long, you still follow the two of us!"
For Long Wanda's thoughts, Peng Bin was very clear in his heart, and immediately rejected Long Wanda's suggestion, and finally entered here, this old boy actually wanted to fly solo, Peng Bin was naturally unwilling.
"That's what you said!" Long Wanda sighed secretly in his heart, but there was no expression on his face, so he could only follow Peng Bin and Fang Yi and walk into the giant city from the corridor.
"This is supposed to be the staircase to climb up, right?"
Looking back, Fang Yi saw that near the inner perimeter of the city wall, there were stone stairs that surrounded and went up every few tens of meters, and when he walked over to take a look, Fang Yi found that the outside of these stone stairs should have had wooden handrails, but now they are completely decayed.
"Big brother, do you want to go up and have a look?" Fang Yi turned his face to Peng Bin and asked.
"It's something like a beacon, isn't it? there's no need to go up and see it, we'll go up and have a look when we're done searching the city......"
Judging from the buildings built around that mountain, there were at least hundreds of thousands of people living in this city before, and Peng Bin didn't believe that from the place where these hundreds of thousands of people lived, he couldn't even find a single ancient exercise.
"Okay then......" Fang Yi turned around with a little regret, and was about to leave when the corner of his eyes suddenly found that there seemed to be a pattern engraved on the stone wall inside the stone staircase.
"Big brother, wait, there seems to be a stone painting on it...... Fang Yi turned around, walked to the stone steps, wiped the stone wall with his hand, and a picture engraved on the stone wall suddenly met Fang Yi's eyes.
"What painting?" Hearing Fang Yi's words, Peng Bin suddenly squeezed over, "Is it any cultivation technique?"
"Big brother, who would engrave the cultivation exercises on the city wall?" Fang Yi said speechlessly: "There is only one person on this screen, it should be working, right?"
Unlike the exquisite Han and Tang stone murals that Fang Yi had seen in the Jinling Museum, this stone carving is very simple, with a few rough lines outlining the shape of a person, and in the person's hand, it seems to be holding something like a hoe.
