Chapter Eighty-Four: Nothing
Bushes and weeds everywhere, lush green branches and leaves, and vines clinging to the roofs and walls of the surrounding houses, like a green cloth, obscuring the traces of time. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
If it was in the past, this place must have been a very quiet place, after all, there are only more than 1,000 people in the huge Nine Ruins, and if they are dispersed, it can almost be said to be an empty city.
However, at this time, far and near, the sound of explosions from time to time broke the silence of the place, making people feel extremely noisy.
Just as I don't know how many people are fighting fiercely in this ruined city, there is such a group of people who seem to be walking in this ruined place full of old buildings with the mentality of an outing.
There are a total of seven people in this line, whether it is in terms of clothing or gender, these seven people are clearly divided into two sides.
One of them, there are three people, wearing military uniforms, and the straight white military uniforms make the people wearing them full of spirit and a sense of justice, especially the soldiers who walk in front, with two three-star sticks hanging on their chests, indicating that they are colonels, and the last two should be guards, holding guns in their hands to guard against enemies who may appear around at any time.
This colonel-level figure looked very young, about twenty years old, with short hair, a high nose bridge, deep eye sockets, a handsome and dashing face, and always a gentle smile on his face.
The other group of people, there were four of them, all of them women, led by Yu Rin Ling and Hibiscus Tianyu, followed by two maids.
The four of them were all wearing the robes of the Demon Clan's Nature Temple, and there was no obvious difference in appearance, only wearing brooches on their chests, and the brooches of the two maids were three green leaves diagonally, while the brooches of Yu Rin Ling and Hibiscus Tianyu were a round of the last quarter moon plus a few stars.
The number of stars naturally means the status in the temple, although Yu Rin Ling is old, Hibiscus Tianyu still calls her Aunt Ling, but she only has one star, but Hibiscus Tianyu is only seventeen or eighteen years old, but there are already two stars, obviously in the natural temple of the demon clan, age is not one of the necessary conditions for status.
In addition, the greater difference with the light source temple is the sacrificial robes of both sides; the robes of the nature temple are obviously more cumbersome and gorgeous, and the color is mostly light green, and it is decorated with some leaf and moon pattern flower ornaments, and it is said that the nature temple of the demon clan only accepts women, so it is different from the men and women of the light source temple.
Of course, these differences and details, those who understand naturally understand, but those who don't understand, are very curious, just like the young colonel named Feng Peng now, and Yu Rinling chatted quite openly, asking about some things about the Demon Clan's Natural Temple, the two of them talked and laughed, but they couldn't see Yu Rinling's dislike of this colonel when they were on the empty boat.
However, it is easy to imagine that when it comes to private, it is estimated that Aunt Ling will complain about how awkward and boring it is to act outside.
Hibiscus Tianyu was not interested in the topic of the two people on the side, and instead looked around with great interest, this city that was once very prosperous six hundred years ago.
Her usual hobby in the temple is to read books, whether it is about the demon race itself, or the humans or even the demons outside, she is not refused, among them, the past of the planet, once the common history of humans, demons and demons, she is most fascinated.
It's hard to imagine that 600 years ago, humans on this planet were creatures at the top of the food chain, they developed a brilliant culture, and built unimaginably huge cities on land, without that light 600 years ago, no one knows how far humanity would have developed at that time.
It's a pity that history is not accidental, when the glorious day comes, the original civilization of human beings was destroyed, and after hundreds of years of painful struggle, it regained its footing on the earth, although now technology is more developed, and the body has evolved, but it is no longer the top creature on the planet.
Even in this vast ruined forest, there are many creatures that are more powerful and terrifying than humans living, and human beings can no longer travel and play anytime and anywhere like their ancestors did six hundred years ago.
Looking at it, all of a sudden, the surrounding buildings seemed to take on a new look, the streets on the ground were intact and clean, and there were countless pedestrians and vehicles coming and going around them, walking on the streets.
There were noisy sounds around, but the lively atmosphere made her feel extremely familiar, as if she had once been there, and she was almost indulged in it, until she suddenly heard someone shouting her name, and those scenes that were like illusions but very real were shattered and returned to reality.
"Hmm, what?" Hibiscus replied with some confusion.
"Girl, are you okay?" After all, it was someone close to him, and Yu Rin Ling easily saw that there was something unusual about Hibiscus Tianyu's situation.
"It's okay!" Hibiscus Tianyu had already come to his senses, shook his head, and said with a smile: "I was too immersed in the history of this city just now, so I was a little distracted. ”
"I didn't expect Miss Hibiscus to be such a sentimental person. Feng Peng said with a smile.
Hibiscus Tianyu shook his head slightly: "Probably I used to just read history in books, but now I am walking in this history, thinking of the human beings in the past, just living here, there is an inexplicable sigh." ”
Hearing this, Feng Peng smiled slightly: "Hearing it, Miss Mu Hibiscus must have a wide range of knowledge, and she even studies the history of hundreds of years ago, and ordinary people probably never care about this." ”
"It's just a hobby!" said Hibiscus Tianyu with a smile.
"By the way, a centuries-old building can be regarded as an antique, right?"
Regarding the sudden shift in this topic, Feng Peng didn't know what Yu Rinling wanted to say: "It should be counted! After all, it's hundreds of years old." ”
"That's all ruined like this...... Yu Rin Ling looked at a thirty-story building in the distance, which should have been affected by the battle, and there was an explosion, and a part of it was slowly collapsing down with smoke and dust: "...... Aren't you distressed?"
Feng Peng shrugged: "It's none of my business, after all, I'm just a soldier, I only know how to fight, as a battlefield place, it's inevitable that there will be some losses." Besides, in this ruined forest, I don't know how many such ruined cities, there is not much more than it, and there is no less than it. ”
"Yes!" Hearing this, Yu Rin Ling nodded, but agreed, and at this moment, a green light fell from the sky and fell in front of Yu Rin Ling.
"Sacrifice your lord, we've found the demon escapee!"
The person who came was the demon clan who was with Yu Rin Ling and them. In fact, except for the two temple maids who followed Yu Rin Ling and Hibiscus Tianyu, the demon soldiers brought by the others had already dispersed to search for the fugitives.
"Oh! how's it going?" Yu Rin Ling quickly asked.
The soldier who reported shook his head and showed regret on his face: "The demon is dead, and the items on his body have disappeared. ”
Yu Lingling frowned slightly, and said, "Take us to have a look!" After speaking, he said to Colonel Feng Peng: "I'm sorry!"
"It's okay!" Feng Peng shook his head with a smile: "That's what you're here for. ”
Yu Rin Ling then glanced at Mu Hibiscus Tianyu, and under the leadership of the soldiers who came back to report, the two of them and the maid behind them turned into four green rays of light at the same time and flew into the sky.
Seeing this, Feng Peng also followed, and the two guards behind him turned into two different light clusters, red and yellow, respectively, dragging a long tail, and followed.
The place where the demon corpse was found was not far away, and soon a few rays of light landed one after another to recover their figures, and at a glance they saw several demon soldiers waiting around the demon corpse.
Several people hurriedly walked over, and Hibiscus Tianyu even squatted down directly beside the demon corpse, checked the corpse, and then stood up and said to Yu Rinling: "Aunt Ling, the death time of this demon is about ten hours, that is, around ten o'clock last night." ”
Just casually examined the corpse, and came to such a conclusion, the performance of Mu Hibiscus Tianyu made Feng Peng really surprised: "I didn't expect Miss Mu Hibiscus to have an autopsy!"
Hibiscus Tianyu turned around and gave him a smile: "My work in the temple is probably like this. ”
"That's it!" Feng Peng's face changed, but he quickly returned to normal, but even so, he still didn't escape the eyes of Yu Rin Ling and Hibiscus Tianyu.
Regarding the misunderstanding in Feng Peng's heart, Hibiscus Tianyu could probably guess it, but she didn't explain it, but Yu Rinling secretly laughed in her heart, saying that this girl is also quite good at scaring people.
"Now that the demon fugitive has been found, but he is dead, and what you want to recover is gone. What are you going to do?" As the supreme commander who led the North Wind Guard to the Nine Ruins this time, Feng Peng naturally knew a lot of inside information.
In fact, what the demon clan proposed was just to ask the human military to help and lead them to the place where the demon people might be hiding, and the search was done by the demon clan itself, and in addition, there was nothing Feng Peng could do, but if the demon clan people asked for further help, it was not impossible to consider.
"Need my help?"
Yu Rin Ling said, "I don't need to trouble you here. I am afraid that we will not be able to find what we have lost, just by searching for it. ”
"Haha, that saved me a lot of trouble!" Feng Peng joked.
"Then maybe!" Yu Rin Ling said meaningfully, "You guys are so big this time, it's the North Wind Guard, and it's a large combat machine, it's definitely not just to help us search for demon fugitives, right?"
Feng Peng smiled and didn't answer, but said, "Two young ladies, are you interested in going and seeing?"
"Okay!" Yu Rin Ling agreed very happily: "Anyway, it's okay, just go and see, just to see if you can steal some military secrets and go back!"
For such a joke, Feng Peng could only smile and shake his head.
