Chapter 968: Strange Poison

It's not a military fortress or anything, it's just a normal city. "As an ordinary city, it is impossible to store any traps or anything like that.

Although Qin Ruo and He Xilin were cautious, until now, they had not found any threat to them from anything like a mechanism formation. It's like a mundane city, where whoever is idle has nothing to do, and his home is full of traps

And this dungeon, in fact, is such a city. The buildings on the ground, and the buildings here, are actually one, the only difference is that some formations have been built around.

And those formations are probably just symbolic formations.

At least in Qin Ruo and He Xilin's feelings, it should be like this.

Now, the two men were standing in a place full of boxes, several of which were open. But neither of them dared to take it.

They have already tried it just now, those books composed of bamboo slips that seem to still maintain their intact shape, if you don't take them, they are still a roll of bamboo slips, and if you take them, they will turn into a cloud of flying ashes.

"Damn, even if we find it, it's worthless." He Xilin was a little angry.

Qin Ruo pulled her and slowly retreated, exiting the room all the way.

There is no doubt that this is the place where the city is similar to a book store or something. But with the passage of time, everything here has lost its meaning.

Even the four skeletons at the door who still held their former positions were the same.

When they were alive, they were probably powerful warriors, but now, they are just a dusty skeleton.

Their long knives fell next to the skeletons, long since they became one with their scabbards.

Leaving this material, Qin Ruocai breathed a sigh of relief, not because he was afraid of others, but because he was afraid that he would make some moves, and as a result, he would directly destroy these flying ashes.

"Wait, with the ability of the two of us, we won't be able to find anything from here. Maybe the people of the Yin-Yang Gate can find anything. Qin Ruo sighed.

In fact, he also comforted himself, he knew very well that this ruin, if it didn't completely fester, might still find something valuable. But now, I'm afraid it doesn't have much value.

Of course, Qin Ruo will never give up, and there are always remnants of Nuoda's relics. If you find a little one, it might be a priceless treasure.

"Formations, ores, this is something we have prepared for and can gain before we enter here. But now it seems that the formation is enough to choke. He Xilin calmed down and said softly.

Qin Ruo nodded: "I didn't expect this to be so corrupt here." But I wonder what is the reason why all the people here are suddenly like this, and before they die, they can see that they have no warning, but suddenly die like this. ”

He Xilin looked around, and suddenly his eyes fell on a person in the middle of the courtyard, he walked over slowly, looked carefully for a while, made a few gestures, and looked up at Qin Ruo who came over, and the eyes of the two people showed a sudden look almost at the same time.

The way this person died is very telling, a skeleton lying on the ground on its side, although it is already a skeleton, and after the flesh and blood decay after death, the bones inevitably have some changes, but the general original movements can still be guessed.

A man, standing, suddenly raised his hand to hold his throat, then his body fell, curled up in a ball, and after struggling, he still kept his hands on his throat and died.

"Before this person was born, he must have been a very high master." He Xilin stood up, holding a piece of jade pendant in his hand and handing it to Qin Ruo. "It's a pity that this jade pendant is too old, I haven't seen who this jade pendant should belong to, and I can't determine his identity."

Qin Ruo glanced at the jade pendant and handed it back to He Xilin: "Stay, maybe the people of the Yin and Yang Gate can know." After all, they are the most researched sect in this sect. ”

He Xilin nodded and put away the jade pendant.

Now it seems that only ores, jade pendants, and other things that can be immortal for thousands of years, can be preserved. I can only hope that from these jade pendants, I can find some clues about this place. However, estimating is difficult.

"According to my estimate, the people here are probably poisoned." He Xilin looked at the skeleton that fell to the ground and said softly. "Moreover, the toxicity must be so violent that even the vast majority of people have no time to react, and they die while maintaining their pre-mortem movements. And only some people of extreme strength can resist to a limited extent. But what kind of poison can poison so many people in such a vast area at once?"

He Xilin's brows furrowed deeply.

Even in modern society, it is good to be able to do this, but it is not easy, this is an underground city of more than four square kilometers, and more than 100,000 people live here.

Modern poisons, no matter how good they are, people before they die, will react in various ways. But judging from the state of the people here, the time from the poisoning of these people to the death of the poison makes it too scary for everyone to even have time to make different actions.

What kind of poison can be poisoned to this Cheng dΓΉ

At least in Qin Ruo and He Xilin's concepts, there is no such poison.

Potassium cyanide in the world is an extremely poisonous poison, but even this poison will have a poisoning process. And the people here can't see the process of poisoning at all, except for the difference in the person in front of them.

With a heavy heart, Qin Ruo and He Xilin withdrew from this place.

After all, there might be something useful here

They couldn't get out left and right, Qin Ruo and He Xilin simply started to walk around the city, but they were very cautious and tried not to destroy anything here. After all, what is here, maybe somewhere, is useful.

I walked through at least a dozen houses with a large area, and in three of them, people with different actions appeared. There are five such people.

These five men, who had suffered a state of agony before their death from poisoning. Except for these five people, everyone was the same as everyone else, without any appearance of resistance, and just kept the last action of their lives and died.

"These people who are in a state of poisoning should be the most powerful people here." He Xilin looked at a person in front of him whose entire finger bones were inserted into the ground of stones, and the skeleton that was still crawling forward.

Qin Ruo nodded: "That's right, it's just that what is more strange to me is, who poisoned it?"

He Xilin smiled bitterly and spread his hands: "How do I know." But it's really strange, you see, even though everyone was poisoned, the city didn't look like it had been looted. Originally, according to my point of view, it is probably not possible for one or a few people to poison a city at once, but a considerable number of people. But such a group of people, after poisoning, they left immediately, what is the point of killing people just to kill for the sake of killing I don't believe that if there is not enough benefit, why kill people Since everyone here has been killed, the wealth here should definitely not be considered a minority, but I don't think that this place has come to loot early. ”

Qin Ruo was also puzzled, and looked at the city as silent as death, well, it should be a dead city, very puzzled.

It's really strange to kill everyone and the city to be motionless.

I'm afraid there are no such boring people in the world, just to kill such an entire city at once just to kill people.

More importantly, this city, in the Qin Dynasty at that time, should be the most powerful organization, and it is not too strange that such an organization was completely wiped out

For example, the current Bixiao Palace, even if it is completely wiped out, there will always be so many people who will miss it.

But in history, no matter what history it is, there is no record of this city.

In this case, then there is only one possibility, and anyone who knows about the city is dead. Or, most of them are dead, and the rest of the people are simply not enough for the city's existence to spread.

The two of them are confused, and they really can't figure this thing out.

"Don't think about it, maybe you'll figure it out when someone from outside comes in." He Xilin shrugged his shoulders. "Let's think about how we can help open that door and let people outside. Of course, the most important thing is how we get out. We're not in any danger, but if we can't get out, we can't die here."

Qin Ruo smiled: "It's impossible to die of old age here." If you don't understand that gate for a while, it is estimated that Gongye Gate will forcibly break through this gate. We'll be able to get out then. It's just that this relic is too special an evil door. What I am even more afraid of is what kind of poison can poison so many people at one time If this poison is used in modern secular society, such a large area, in a densely populated area, is too terrible. ”

He Xilin smiled: "How can it be so easy, don't look at the benefits of this poison, but I'm sure that this thing is definitely difficult to get." Otherwise, those who possess this poison would have ruled the world long ago. ”

Qin Ruo couldn't help laughing, but this poison still made him deeply afraid.

However, the time of history is thousands of years later, and the truth of what happened thousands of years ago will never be revealed. What is left for posterity is only endless speculation.

The two of them walked out, a little aimlessly, because they really didn't know what to do.

If this place is in good condition, maybe they can study something, but now in the situation here, they don't dare to move anything, and the only thing that can be moved is probably the ore in the smelting area. But now the two of them don't have much of the heart to get the ore.

He Xilin looked around boredly: "Now the two of us seem to be locked in this cage." ”

Qin Ruo looked around, looked forward again, and was just about to speak, when suddenly his brows froze, and he walked forward quickly. After walking a short distance, he stopped: "You just now, didn't you stay here?"

He Xilin was a little puzzled, and was just about to speak, when suddenly his pupils contracted suddenly: On the ground, where Qin Ruo was looking, there were footprints of three people walking
