Chapter 70: The Heresy of the Refinery
Kangcheng is close to the border of the small country of Dandan, which once destroyed the country, the environmental traffic is not very closed, the path is very winding and secluded, and I heard that the predecessor of Kangcheng is the capital of a certain country, because of the destruction of the country caused by offending a certain country, because it has been a long time here, it is to the small Jia wealth of some small countries around and even the landlord and the prince of the county will take a look at this piece of fat, accept it for use, and privately raise funds to rebuild and repair the old house on this ruins, which shows that its base scale is not comparable to that of ordinary small cities.
Kangcheng is divided into sawing three, there are more than 1,000 meters in the north and south, about hundreds of meters in the east and west, divided into three parts, each has a doorway to communicate, and it is actually a military castle, because the north is based on the Huangbi Mountain, the terrain is high, can overlook the whole city of Kangcheng, has the role of the highest point.
Due to the frequent wars in Jiuzhou, I heard that when it was invaded by the enemy, this is the place where both sides must fight, called "the fortress", out of military needs, many piers are set up on the outer wall of the northwest city wall of Kangcheng and the outer wall of the Qin base platform, according to Yu Ziying to observe its shape and effect like the "horse face" of later generations.
After Ling Shao's assiduous and proud show-off, Yu Ziying learned how big Kangcheng is, on its east and west twenty miles, north and south fifteen miles is not an exaggeration, in the entire outer Guo City, it is divided into more than 300 square squares, each square is surrounded by walls, each side is 300 steps long, that is, one mile.
The ruins of the old capital were renovated as the inner city of Cannes, and the wealthy people lived in the city, and the industrial and commercial districts such as "Big City", "Small City", and "Sitong City" were located outside the inner city, and the location was south of Miyagi......
Although Yuwen Ziying has lived in this Cannes for almost seven years, she has been confined to the broken temples and surrounding streets of the outer city by the old beggar because of her special status, and she has never really depicted this city map plate in her mind.
In addition, the poor were generally not allowed to enter the inner city, but one day the plague suddenly broke out in the inner city, and all the rich merchants and nobles rushed to flee the city, and the city was completely reduced to a slum.
Yu Ziying guessed that the plague was a ghost made by the Seven Sects of Teng Snake to pay off those who occupied the main land.
Ling Shao's mouth was broken, and Yu Ziying finalized his setting, teasing him from time to time along the way, listening to what she wanted to know like an inverted basket.
Finally turned around, from the inner city to the outer city of the industrial and commercial area, Yu Ziying came all the way, the shops and vendors and workshops were closed, the whole city was as silent as death, and there was no popularity, she guessed that now there were no outsiders in the city, only the hidden clansmen of the Seven Sects of Teng Snake and the foreign Yin Sheng were occupied.
The oil refinery is at the end of the street between the low alleys, from the angle of Yu Ziying's landing can be seen in a corner, it is covered by a shady green vine tree roots crawling all over the wall roots, the gray-black building is like an iron cage turtle shell pressed by the inverted cover, surrounded by rocks, but the eaves are not like ordinary tile glass, but a series of iron fences are horizontal and vertical, and the shape of the well is impermeable, and its interior is unknown.
Seeing that she had finally arrived, Yu Ziying let go of the dizzy and primed Quan Ling, waved her black wide sleeves, and dusted off a sunny place, she stood in front of the oil refinery, her eyes were like electricity and she glanced at it casually, but she saw that the plaque of the door in this workshop was tilted, and the black wooden doorknob was painted with a layer of mud, and the surrounding area was covered with a layer of black ash, although the corners of the beams were not covered with heavy spider webs, but they were also dilapidated and yellow, as if they had been abandoned for a long time.
Her facial features were sharp, and even when she stood outside the refinery, she could faintly smell a strange smell wafting out of the crack in the door with the warm, humid and musty air.
Could it be that this seemingly deserted oil refinery is still in operation? Thinking like this, Yu Ziying waved out the air flow with one palm, pushed open the two empty doors, and when she felt the hot current wave that was completely different from the outside of the door, the sticky and humid air made her purse the corners of her mouth, and when she raised her eyes, she could vaguely observe the red light of the fire from the wall and corridor.
Fire?
"Hey, you just got in?" Young Ling pinched his throat and shouted in a low voice.
He finally came back to his senses in a down-to-earth manner, he straightened his rickety head, and while Yu Ziying was observing the oil refinery, he was standing at the doorway, his big tiger-shaped eyes peeping left and right, and his eyes were gloomy, as if some unknown monster would suddenly rush out of the shadows.
His father had warned him more than once to be disciplined and not to set foot in the territory where these madmen were, because he hadn't been to this area for a long time, but he didn't want to be really startled when he came, this was not the case, and now that he walked down the street, let alone see a living person, it was so silent that goosebumps fell to the ground.
Yu Ziying only remembered his existence when she heard Quan Ling's voice, and she didn't look back and said: "I have observed the way here, and there is no danger, you can go back by yourself." β
"Hey, wait, what do you mean, hey, are you really not leaving? Do you know what's in it? When Young Man Ling heard this, he crooked his nose and mouth angrily, he wanted to leave, but he couldn't see that the brittle girl in front of him was harmed.
He was born with the personality of this chicken woman, and he was afraid that he would not be able to change it for the rest of his life, and after he spat on himself, he still leaned on her back and picked up his arms in a hurry and shouted.
"What's there?" Yu Ziying's expression was as usual, her eyes were quiet and silent, and she didn't see any emotion.
Ling Shao was afraid to look at her, so he glanced away uncontrollably and scratched his cheeks irritably: "Oops! I don't know what it is, but I overheard my father talking to Uncle You, and said that basically all the people in the city who had moved to live in the city were arrested by the people from the Banyan Mansion and the oil refinery, and no one came out after that, and I heard from others...... There's a man-eating ghost here! β
Ling Shao shuddered as he spoke, rubbing his arms together, he was by no means alarmist, but really thought so.
"I see."
In response to his words, Yu Ziying only nodded in understanding, and then stepped inside without any hesitation.
"Hey! Feed! You-" As soon as he looked up, he saw Yu Ziying's thin and straight back that was thicker than the darkness, waved his hand in frustration and annoyance, and said negatively: "Forget it, if you want to go, just do whatever you want, anyway, I've said all the good and bad things, love to die is your business, and I don't bother to pay attention to you!" β
After Ling Shao finished speaking, he finally waited for a while, but when he saw that Yu Ziying did not listen to his stubborn steps, he rushed to his head angrily, and kicked the brown and black door panel, kicked hard, and turned around and stomped away.
ββ
Yu Ziying didn't have time to pay attention to the temperament of the child, since she entered the oil refinery, she stood in an open space, the four corners of the open space were piled up with some wooden leaky shelves, and the bamboo poles across the central axis were erected on both sides, she walked a few steps, and grabbed a handful of copper coins from a blue cloth pocket hanging on the side waist, pointed like picking flowers, and put the copper plates side by side in the white palm, and then found the right direction, and threw it into the air, her eyes were like lightning flashing, and her eyes were not separated from the twelve copper plates.
When the twelve copper plates fell to the ground one after another, Yu Ziying's chin was slightly raised, and the gaze looked like a bottomless black hole deep and deep, not for a moment.
- Half of the front and half of the tail.
After just a glance, Yu Ziying knew the results, but he saw that the occultist who was still high-end and high-grade a second ago actually squatted down with his knees bent, and picked up the copper plates on the ground one by one very down-to-earth.
She didn't have the pride to spend a lot of money, and even ten coppers had to be kept once and continue to use it.
Even a mystic master who has no fixed financial resources can only open source energy poorly.
She entered the refinery room, the air in the room was dull and mildew, there was a sour smell of oil and gas, and it turned out that the windows in the room were closed and a layer of black cloth hung down, and the air-dried and broken cloth moved with the wind blowing from the door, and the gray-white curtains between the beams began to flutter restlessly, and a trace of miserable white light seeped in, reflecting the folds on the veil and floating, gradually revealing the shape of a pair of eyes, its eyes seemed to be able to nail into the marrow of a personβ
Yu Ziying struck out and cut into the veil like a streamer, but saw the air flow rolled into the curtain like a thin blade of snow and tore the veil to pieces, like a snow fluttering in the sky, but the figure that was originally hidden here disappeared.
Yu Ziying's breath was stagnant, it was impossible for someone to disappear from her sight without a trace, Yu Ziying had this kind of confidence, unless she caught the ghost that disappeared just now.
If not...... That would only mean that there was a secret passage here for him to avoid her detection in time!
Before she entered the shop just now, she clearly saw the flickering fire on the wall, she thought that there was a stove in the fire, but the room was dark, so she thought of the disappearance of the black shadow just now, so she had this guess.
Just now, maybe someone in the secret passage noticed that someone was in front of the oil refinery, so they opened the secret passage to investigate, and it was a flash of fire from the underground furnace, and then the fire suddenly disappeared, naturally because the secret passage was closed.
Indeed, if it weren't for the secret passage, this refinery had been closed for a long time, and where did the smell of hot and humid smell come from? When you think about it, everything goes smoothly.
She searched the place, she was sure that the tunnel was nearby, and sure enough, after she rubbed around, she felt a bead-shaped bulge on the pillar, and she pressed it hard, and with a thud, the ground where she stepped fell into the ground, and the whole person fell weightless.
Yu Ziying quickly stabilized her body in mid-air, but in the blink of an eye, she had already fallen to the ground, which showed that the secret passage was not too deep from the ground.
As soon as she landed in the dark passage, Yu Ziying was more likely to smell a smell of rust, and because of the strange smell mixed with it, she only recognized it as blood at this moment.
The secret passage is made of black rocks of different sizes cast into a long corridor, because there are no lamps and candles, not careful and specific, she followed the heavy fishy smell all the way, the ground gradually damp and stained, the front end came from a dim light, I don't know where there was a ticking sound of water droplets, until Yu Ziying's vision was cheerful, and the white in front of her eyes fell into the bottom of her eyes.
It was a white marble bath, which was built into two steps, and the circular bath triangle was carved with three lion heads, and the lion's head was gushing with blood.
The red and white are extremely contrasting, and the scene is absolutely visually shocking.
didn't wait for Yu Ziying to take a closer look, at this time, "whoa"! With a bang, a figure burst out of the blood of the bath, and the blood was cold and thick water slid down from his body, and his lower body was still immersed in blood, and the black hair was thrown out of the blood and water, and it was scattered over his shoulders, and the gold-inlaid black robe was scattered on the snow water, and when the thick blood slipped from him, it seemed to be covered with a layer of blood-red silk, and a strand of hair that showed through the red ape fell and fell on the handsome pale cheeks carved by his divine axe,
His whole body seemed to be confused and condensed for a moment like a stone sculpture, and his blood-stained body shook and wanted to fall back into the pool.
Yu Ziying's pupils were suffocated, and before his mind became active, he had jumped into the pool like an arrow with a pop, and he didn't care that his body was dirty, just when he was about to fall, his arms were wrapped, because he was too tall and burly, she was afraid that one hand was beyond her strength, and only her hands were shared, bringing him into her arms.
"Angry ......"
She rested his head on her shoulder blades, half of her body next to her, flipped her hand and reached into his wrist, quickly checking his pulse to make sure he still had a heartbeat, and then let out a sigh.
When the anger fell on her, even her body was stained with blood.
"You're finally here...... angrily opened his eyes, as if a chuckle spilled from between his lips and teeth, his drooping arms wrapped around Yu Ziying's slender waist like a stream, buried his head in her neck socket, and rubbed the blood that slipped from his face on her clean clothes like a mischief, and his deep voice was revealed in Yu Ziying's ears, seeping into the bone, and complaining with a little hoarseness: "If you don't come again, I may really go crazy......
Yu Ziying could see that something was wrong with him, when he held her, his whole body was as hot as iron thrown into the furnace, she frowned, did not talk to him, reached out and forcefully broke his face and lifted up, when looking at his undisguised, blood-red eyes, she moved.
"Your eyes...... What's wrong? β
In the past, when the angry eyes were boiling with murderous intent, although they would be scarlet, as if covered with a veil of blood, they would still have normal pupils, but now, his eyes turned out to be pure blood pupils, and the pupils were actually erect.
As...... Scarlet's cold, merciless viper-like eyes.
"You...... Are you a Blood Gu Man? She stiffened her face and chewed on the words in her mouth for a long time before she asked the guess.
The light of the angry eyes was deep in an instant, and his eyes stayed on Yu Ziying's face for a long time, and suddenly he suddenly clasped the back of Yu Ziying's head with one hand, and his lips covered it fiercely, and then sucked and gnawed hard like devouring......
Yu Ziying was stunned, but as the root of his tongue hurt when he was bitten, he was angry in his heart, so he slashed his left shoulder and knocked him away, and as soon as he retreated, he clasped his hands on the edge of the bath, and suddenly raised his head as if he was not in pain, and laughed wildly and heroically and wildly.
"Do you feel disgusting?" After laughing, he licked the red scarlet lips with malice and bewilderment, tilted his head and squinted at Yu Ziying, the strands of blood dripping down his cheeks, making him very evil.
