Chapter 256: Big Event
"This city ...... is empty. Shi Nanxuan raised his head slightly, looked at the city sign that had been covered by spider webs, frowned slightly, and raised his hand to signal to go in and have a look.
The group rode into the city, and the silent and dark town seemed to be under some kind of curse, and everything was sleeping, so quiet, so quiet that it made people panic.
"No one." Yejin looked around and said coldly, let alone a human, not even a mouse.
"You look around, and if you find it, report it immediately." Shi Nanxuan turned over and dismounted, tied the horse to the pillar on the side, raised his hand and touched the pillar, but unexpectedly found that the pillar was extremely smooth and clean, without the slightest dust.
Ye Jin and the others each found a direction to investigate, and after several searches, there was no one to see, the sky gradually darkened, Shi Nanxuan and the others found an inn and walked in, the tables and chairs were scattered, but the house was clean as if it had been cleaned, and it was extremely gloomy.
"Master, what's going on?" Ye Jin frowned, touched those tables and chairs over and over again, there was no dust on his hands, Shi Nanxuan also frowned tightly, raised his hand and asked Ye Jin to light up the lights in the house to see what would happen at night.
"Bai Gongzi won't be teasing his master, right?" Yejin sat in the inn, and Shi Nanxuan also sat opposite, because there was no one in the inn, they naturally had nothing to eat, so they had to continue to eat the dry food they brought.
"He wouldn't have retaliated against me like that." Shi Nanxuan bit the dry food in his hand, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at the dark street outside the window, the weeds that the wind blew and stirred up, and the lights were lit in the whole city, and it looked extraordinarily infiltrating.
Ye Jin pulled the corners of his mouth when he heard this, and also raised his eyes to look out the window, just when Shi Nanxuan was about to put down the water bladder in his hand, he suddenly saw a white shadow flashing on the roof not far away, and the white figure was particularly dazzling in the dark night.
"Someone! Pursue! Shi Nanxuan's face turned cold, and he chased towards the white shadow without any hesitation, Ye Jin was stunned, and followed Shi Nanxuan's footsteps.
In the dark night, the white shadow was moving extremely fast, jumping and flying on the roof, Shi Nanxuan chased it with all his strength, but lost it in the blink of an eye, and Ye Jin followed behind him panting, completely unaware of what was going on.
Shi Nanxuan stood on the roof of the house, frowning coldly and looking down, he couldn't see anything in the pitch black, and there was silence all around, as if the white shadow just now had never appeared.
"It won't be...... Hell yes? Ye Jin grinned and said in a trembling voice.
"There's a problem." Shi Nanxuan didn't seem to care about what Ye Jin said at all, he flew down the house with a little flying under his feet, landed on the ground, squinted his eyes slightly, and ran forward quickly for a while, there were no houses in front of him, only a few dead trees and the high hillside.
Shi Nanxuan stared at the hillside, and suddenly felt a cold killing intent on his back, and when Jun Mo didn't hesitate to turn around, what he saw was a cold sword stabbing towards him without stopping, and the tip of the sword that flashed with cold light made Shi Nanxuan's heart tremble fiercely with a momentum without hesitation.
"Boom!" The sound of swords clashing came, Shi Nanxuan bent down suddenly, his big hand reached out and grabbed the hand of the person in the dark, and pressed it hard, almost instantly crushing the person to his knees.
"Hiss......" The cry of pain came, and just when Shi Nanxuan thought that he had subdued the man, the person in the dark unexpectedly unloaded his arm, and the dagger in the other hand stabbed Shi Nanxuan's neck mercilessly, and the snowy light shone on Shi Nanxuan's face, and with a little light, the two looked at each other.
"It's you?!"
"It's you?!"
Two voices that also exclaimed came, Shi Nanxuan frowned and stared at the woman with dirt and pale lips in front of her, the guard uniform was already full of blood and tattered, only the pair of dark eyes were still flashing with a little light, such an unkempt appearance, how could there be the scenery of being a guard.
"Shang Zi?" Shi Nanxuan's brows furrowed tightly, and he slowly let go of the hand that bound Shang Zi.
"Why are you here?" Shang Zi gasped slightly, endured the severe pain and sat directly on the ground, Shi Nanxuan frowned slightly and knelt on the ground, picked up Shang Zi's hand and said, "You bear with it." ”
Shang Zi lowered his head slightly and didn't say a word, Shi Nanxuan moved slightly, and his hand suddenly made a crisp sound, and the sweat on Shang Zi's forehead came down instantly, and he stopped speaking with a muffled snort.
"Why are you here?" Shi Nanxuan looked at Shang Zi, who was rubbing his arms, stood up and leaned over and asked.
"Ordered to handle the case." Shang Zi frowned slightly and replied lightly, and when the pain in his arm was relieved, he stood up and looked at Shi Nanxuan and said, "What about you?" How did you come here? ”
"You were stabbed by the assassins, and I tracked down the assassins to come here." Shi Nanxuan looked at the dark night around him, frowned slightly and said.
"What!? Your Majesty is injured!? Shang Zi's eyes widened slightly, his eyes showed a thoughtful color, his lips pursed slightly, and he looked sideways at Shi Nanxuan and asked, "How is Your Majesty's injury?" ”
"It's fine, but the assassin hasn't been caught yet, and when you hear the news that the assassin is here, have you seen a woman dressed in white?" Shi Nanxuan frowned slightly, looked at Shang Zi and asked.
"Nope." Shang Zi pondered for a moment and shook his head.
"What's going on in this place, how did it become like this?" Shi Nanxuan looked sideways at the chasing Ye Jin, turned his head to look at Shang Zi and asked.
"Something is wrong." Shang Zi's face was slightly solemn, and he waved his hand at Shi Nanxuan and said, "You come with me." ”
Shi Nanxuan probably also felt that there must be a doorway in this, and the thing that could make Shang Zi show such an expression must be a big deal, at that moment Shang Zi adjusted his breathing slightly, and took Shi Nanxuan and Ye Jin through the woods and reached the top of the hill, Shang Zi lay on the mountainside and said, "You guys are ready." ”
Shi Nanxuan's eyes flashed slightly, and he nodded at Shang Zi, indicating that he knew that Shang Zi's face was a little weird, and he turned his head to continue to climb up, on the top of the mountain, Shi Nanxuan felt that the moonlight seemed to be brighter, and it turned out that behind this hill was actually a ravine.
Shi Nanxuan narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at the ravine, he almost exclaimed at this look, his pupils shrank suddenly, and Shang Zi's hand forcefully suppressed Shi Nanxuan's body.
In the deep ravine, there were at least tens of thousands of corpses lying densely, and on top of those corpses, there were countless insects wriggling, and those corpses were completely indistinguishable from human form, all that could be seen was one dried corpse after another, and those corpses were piled up together, and they didn't even emit a little smell.
