Chapter 2: Crossing
Bermuda. The storm has just passed.
The official road was unsealed, and the suspension bridge of the city wall was also lowered again for people to walk with. At this time, a group of lightly armored city defenders, riding tall horses, were beating their horses down from the drawbridge. Behind them were several tin wagons, which were cages made of a fence and filled with miscellaneous items.
Clothes, backpacks, tin toys, pots and pans, you name it.
"By the way, there's another person." With a wave of his hand, two city defenders dragged a roll of straw mats out of a carriage at the end. The straw mat had a pair of feet exposed, stiff and unmoving.
It's a dead man.
"Let's take a look, who lost this? It's such a big piece! Meng Yu shouted loudly, and the soldiers behind him all looked at the sky - if the family of the deceased wanted to beat the general, they should have not seen it.
After Meng Yu finished shouting, he waved his hand into the void, and the straw mat seemed to be pulled open by a pair of hands, revealing the people inside.
There are people who are not taboo about the dead, so they hurriedly came over to take a look, and when they saw that someone really recognized them: "Isn't this Ling Gu, he is a hunter, and his family lives on Fulu Street." β
Meng Yu caught the quick-mouthed one and said, "You go and call his family and let them claim it back." β
"Hey, okay." The man simply said yes and turned and ran.
A quarter of an hour later, I saw a young man in white running in a hurry, and before the sound came, he was crying and wailing. When he came to the front, he saw the corpse, but the young man seemed to be frightened, and he didn't dare to go over for a while, so he stood two steps away from the corpse, and looked up to the sky and cried.
"Brother! No, it won't, my brother is so powerful, how could he die? The young man's eyes were swollen quickly, he was handsome and lovely, and I felt pity when he cried. Many people around were moved by compassion and stepped forward to comfort and persuade.
"Tsk." Meng Yu is impatient - in his dictionary, a man over ten years old cries, that is cowardice.
Seeing that Meng Yu was about to be open-mouthed again, a man with a scholarly temperament next to him, Meng Yu's deputy general Wei Yuan, hurriedly took a step forward and pulled Meng Yu's sleeve: "General, go back." β
He pouted, and was about to speak, when he suddenly saw the stiff corpse on the ground suddenly open his nose, swallow a long breath of air, then rolled his eyelids, and sat up suddenly.
The crowd was silent for a moment, and then exploded with a "boom".
"Corpse!" I don't know who shouted, and suddenly the crowd dispersed, but because the city defense army was there, they all had the courage to leave, and they all retreated to the five-foot open and looked up. Even the boy ran away immediately after the stupor.
Meng Yu blinked, staring at the man who had risen from the dead. The blue-black dead air on the corpse's face was rapidly dissipating, and the lips had changed from purple back to ruddy color, and after a while, the eyes were smart, no different from ordinary people.
"Alive." Meng Yu came back to his senses, Daqi. The corpse before, when they picked it up, was already cold, and it was 100% out of breath.
Meng Yu wanted to go down to check, but was stopped by Wei Yuan. They stood two feet away from the "corpse" and watched what he was going to do.
The "corpse" gasped for breath, then twisted his head to look left and right, his face flashing with astonishment and confusion.
This "corpse" is Ling Gu. After he used the soul extinguishing technique to die with those people, his soul drifted away, and he did not know the years. It wasn't until a strong feeling of suffocation just now that he suddenly woke up. And as soon as I woke up, I saw the soldiers and iron horses in front of me, the city gates and pavilions, as well as the crowds on the street and the tamed beasts.
Ling Gu reacted almost immediatelyβthis was the Otherworld, and he had crossed the border.
For ordinary people, time travel is a magical and illusory word. But for monks, they know the mysteries of the three thousand worlds, as long as you have cultivated enough, it is not impossible for the three thousand worlds to wander around.
However, Ling Gu's cultivation was obviously not enough, and after thinking about it, Ling Gu felt that the two magic weapons that might have been passed down from the family had played a role.
In short, it's good to be alive. There is hope in life, and one day he will be able to take revenge. He also knew who those little minions were supporting.
"Ouch, it's strange, it's really coming back to life." Meng Yu observed again and again, and finally came to a conclusion. The crowd five feet away heard this and rushed up again.
The young man who fled in a hurry before also came back, standing in front of Ling Gu, still a little surprised, and called out tentatively: "Brother? β
Ling Gu turned his head to look at him, a very good-looking teenager, with long hair tied behind his head, and white clothes Shengxue, although he did not wear the elegance of a fairy, but he was pure and lovely.
He didn't know the boy, but the boy was calling him "brother". Combined with his situation, it is not difficult to see - borrowing corpses to return souls.
However, Ling Gu doesn't like teenagers. Ling Gu grew up in a bunch of demon beasts and half-demons, human beings advocate the saying that "if you are not my race, your heart will be different", since she was a child, Ling Gu has seen too many dark sides of human beings. This also allowed him to develop a pair of "fiery eyes", whether it was a human or a demon, he could tell at a glance.
The young man in front of him belongs to a kind of "shemale" in Ling Gu's eyes - the concern in the young man's eyes does not reach the bottom of his eyes, but when he cries, he wipes his tears with his fingertips, and he is very energetic to maintain his image. This is a brilliant performer, a capital "hypocrisy".
But Ling Gu is not without brains, now that the situation is unknown, no matter how tired he is of this kind of person, he will not turn his face. After all, he still doesn't know the situation in this world, what if he is found to be resurrecting his soul and immediately dragged away and burned to death?
So Ling Gu raised his head with a confused look, looked at the young man, and asked, "Who are you?" β
The young man's face changed several times, and finally he said softly: "I am your younger brother Ling Zhaowen." Brother, don't you remember? β
Ling Gu shook his head, then he stood up stiffly on his hands and feet, and the blood flowed back a little painfully, and after a few seconds he straightened up, looked around again, and continued to be confused: "Where is this?" How am I here? β
"Soul Disorder?" Meng Yu raised his eyebrows and turned his head to look at Wei Yuan.
Wei Yun was thoughtful, he made a gesture at Meng Yu, then turned over and dismounted, and walked to Ling Gu: "Ling Gongzi." β
Ling Gu looked at Wei Yuan: "Are you calling me?" β
Wei Yun smiled and said: "Yes, this is General Meng Yumeng, my name is Wei Yuan." We found Ling Gongzi outside the city and brought it back to the city, and now that Ling Gongzi's younger brother is here, then we won't bother. However, it seems that Ling Gongzi seems to have a soul disorder, so let's say, if Gongzi feels unwell, he can go directly to the temple to find the Mingyue priest, and say that we let you go. We took our leave. β
"Ah, thank you, go slowly." Ling Gu also learned from Wei Yun to give it away, and he was slightly surprised that he actually bumped into a general as soon as he came.
Wei Yu and Meng Yu left with a team of city defense troops, walking about a hundred meters away, Meng Yu couldn't hold it back, he turned to look at Wei Yu, and said strangely: "Why don't you tell him about the egg?" β
Hearing this, Wei Yun took out something from his arms, it was a two-oval egg, the size of an egg, moon-white, and it looked rough like a rock. It's not so much an animal egg as a pebble.
This was what they found next to Ling Gu. To be precise, when moving Ling Gu's "corpse", what fell out of Ling Gu's trouser leg, judging from the blood stains on it, was undoubtedly the egg that Ling Gu had just laid.
"This egg is dead." Wei Yun took the egg and looked at it and said, "Being able to give birth to this means that Ling Gu has been planted by a wild beast." Since the dark day passed, the people of Bermuda have been regarded as a great shame by the people of the city after being seeded by wild beasts, and those who have given birth to beasts after being seeded and have not died, for more than 20 years, Bermuda City has been a bone. Anyway, this egg doesn't feel a trace of anger, and instead of adding to Ling Gutu's troubles, it's better for us to hold it. β
Meng Yu blinked, and then looked suspicious: "You have such a good heart?" β
Wei Yun put away the egg in his hand, then turned his head to look at his general, and said with a smile: "The general thinks that I am a woman's kindness?" In that case, I won't do it for me in the future. Hard-hearted, start from small things. β
"Who said you were a woman!" Meng was shocked, and shook his head again and again: "You are not a woman's kindness at all, you are particularly heroic, decisive, and ruthless!" β
Wei Yun smiled, no longer tugging at his general's pigtails, and instead asked, "When will the commander come back?" β
"Huh? It's going to be a few months, and this time it's going to the beach outside the desert. Meng Yu wondered: "What's wrong?" β
Wei Yun touched the egg in the placket of his chest and said softly: "I think this egg is a bit similar to the one that the commander once said." β
Blindfolded: "Really? If that's the case, then that Ling Gu ......"
Wei Wei frowned and shook his head slightly: "I'm just suspicious." Let's take a look. β
Meng Yu nodded: "Well, it's better not to inform the boss if you're not sure about this, otherwise it will make him happy again." β
Wei Yu didn't speak, but obviously agreed with Meng Yu's words.
