Although it is a city, in the eyes of the people of Ludong, it is just a fishing village about half a mile long and wide. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Located at the mouth of the sea, the city is full of winding alleys and low-rise houses along both sides of the waterway.

The fish caught last night hung in a row along the eaves, and the man at the head of the team reached out and pinched the still tender fish, and turned to look at the empty fishing village.

The soldiers numbered ten, and the small boats they were in were densely packed with waterways for half a mile of the city.

Although the atmosphere was extremely depressing, the faces of this group of people clearly showed irrepressible ecstasy. It was as if something was about to erupt out of my mouth, and even the muscles in my cheeks couldn't help but throb.

The old general Yue sent Yue Ba to go out on the expedition this time, and just after crossing the boundary, he ordered to set up camp, and only ordered the forward team responsible for the raid to enter the city to investigate.

This team numbered only a few hundred people, wrapped in black robes, with the word "green" written on the placket of the placket with gold threads, and carrying a long knife about five feet long and covered in pitch black.

The Black Tooth Army Guard of the Xuansi Dynasty in Ludong was divided into four armies: "Red, Green, Tu, and Silver", except for the "Red Tooth", the remaining three armies were led by three generals respectively.

And the black tooth sword, as a special saber for military guards, like this hereditary general position, is also passed down from generation to generation.

The Xuansi Dynasty was in the east of Lu, and it happened to be two continents connected diagonally to the west of Luxi.

Banli City is located at the southern estuary of Luxi, half in the water, and is the only exit from the border between the two places.

Although the two places are connected, they are separated by a bottomless canyon, and a black smoke fills the sky over the canyon all day long.

For the people of Ludong, this black smoke guards the territory on the other side, but it is more like a curse.

Occasionally, there are some elaborate objects from the free city-states, merchants claiming to have crossed the sea to the other side of the continent after life and death, sitting under the eaves and shouting about their wares, boasting of the adventures they brought back from behind the black smoke.

Legend has it that Banli Castle is a shortcut to Luxi, and as long as you pass through the black smoke, you can set foot in a peaceful and peaceful land.

So how many of our ancestors have tried to cross the canyon with curiosity about the unknown and a desire to never touch it. And those who dared to be warriors, without exception, all disappeared without a trace, and there were not even corpses.

I only heard from the people who escaped from the battle, even the outer wall of Banli City was shrouded in darkness that stretched to the sky, what kind of feeling was this, one step away was the night, and nothing could be seen on the other side, only the high wall in the distance could be faintly recognized, and no one knew what was behind the wall.

Those people just stepped into the billowing black smoke, maybe they passed, but they never came back.

Maybe they're always on the road, but they'll never get to the other side.

In this way, Lu Dongren looked at the black smoke that connected the heaven and the earth, and the curiosity in his heart was gradually shrouded in fear, and no one dared to set foot in that world, and all the things before this were held in the hands of the businessman with scars on his face, and they were praised as bluffing stories in the passage of time.

Every Ludong person has heard that when he was young, when he was scolded by his mother to be obedient.

Later, the ambition of possession penetrated deeply into the hearts of the rulers of Ludong.

So the years really reversed the direction of the flow on such a day, protected the canyon of thousands of years in Luxi, and suddenly reversed the spearhead, and only overnight, the black curtain disappeared.

The Green Fang Army was ordered to explore, and it was the sudden decision of one person to take another step forward that knocked on the door of this new world.

The man was standing under the eaves, and beside him stood a man with a goatee.

Half of the goatee's face was slashed, leaving only one eye.

The eye smiled wittily: "Captain, this ...... No one, why don't you let the brothers look around? ”

The team leader nodded, and grabbed the collar of the goatee again: "You go back, report to General Yue, and say that our forward team has made a great contribution this time!" ”

"Yes...... Goatee nodded and arranged for two people, "You two go back with me......" and shouted to the others, "Others, search around!" ”

Like a beast that has been waiting for a long time to be released, today's generation of soldiers, even if they grow up listening to myths, have no fear.

The leader looked up at the sky and estimated the hour, it was not yet midnight, how could he find something before the large army arrived.

So he pulled over an upside-down fish basket, squinted his eyes and sat down under the eaves, and began to drink the confiscated rice wine with peace of mind, this sweet and soft feeling is the most suitable for relieving fatigue, he thought in his heart, if there could be another young girl, the strength would be just enough to pinch my stiff old waist...... The taste was extraordinary.

Lu Dongren has never been good at rowing, and the old hulls collide back and forth in the slender water alley, careful reminders and curses from each other are constantly intertwined. In a short time, the torches lit up the whole town.

At this time, a team of five people came to the depths of Banli City and stretched out their hands to push open the door of a farmer.

This is a living and living layout, with a dining table next to the bed and a stove in the corner of the room, so you can see the end at a glance.

"Blowing so badly...... When I came, I realized that there was nothing rare at all! ”

"I said, this can't be a ghost town, right? The first few households, there is no shadow. ”

Indeed, the oil lamp on the table was still on, the doors and windows were not closed, there was no dust on the ground, the wine in the pot seemed to have just warmed up, and the fish that had been killed half by the stove still had their last breath, and they shook their tails weakly, and even the chopsticks were placed in the right position at hand, but the person was gone.

"In my opinion, this place is similar to a normal village...... Look at this pot, this bowl, this quilt on the bed......"

The person who was talking looked the oldest, called Uncle Yuan, and he picked up the things in his hand at random as he spoke, but he didn't know that these few words scared the remaining four people a lot.

"It's pretty much ...... Why did the man disappear? ”

"Yes, yes, it's a dream......

"How many households are this? The door was unlocked and the food was still on the table......"

"Haunted, isn't it?"

A question made everyone silent, squinting at the various daily necessities around them, although the air was filled with the stench of fish and shrimp, the whole town seemed to be quite tidy.

Uncle Yuan was half on the bed, taking out a pair of socks from the quilt and comparing them on his feet: "Look, women's things." ”

"Don't move, big brother! In case it's a female ghost! ”

Someone suddenly shouted.

The wind shook the window at the right time, and the "squeak" scared several people into the atmosphere, but hugged each other's necks, and said in pieces: "It must be a dream...... It must be a dream. ”

Uncle Yuan only felt funny in his eyes, and casually grabbed someone: "Zhang Xiaoer, you count for me, how many people do you have at home?" ”

Zhang Xiaoer had already lost his soul, and responded tremblingly: "My father, my mother, and me, I didn't marry a daughter-in-law......"

Uncle Yuan pointed to the dishes and chopsticks on the table again: "These pairs of dishes and chopsticks?" ”

"One...... 2. ......"

"If you're dreaming, why are you missing a pair?"

When Zhang Xiaoer heard this, he suddenly broke away from Uncle Yuan's pull, and the knife in his hand fell to the ground, and a pair of eyes stared hard, "It's difficult!" Did I die? Right, right...... It must have been me walking into the black smoke, it must have been! We're all dead, it's not true, so there's no one! We're all dead! ”

The person closest to Zhang Xiaoer suddenly put on an extremely frightened expression when facing him, pointed to the door behind him with his hand over his shoulder, and shouted heartbreakingly: "Ghost! There's a ghost...... It's coming, it's coming! On your back! ”

Zhang Xiaoer opened his mouth wide and wanted to look back, but he didn't know who suddenly pushed it next to him.

"Ah......h

He shouted hoarsely, and in a moment all the lights in the room went black, and the rest of the people stood silent, motionless.

Zhang Xiaoer screamed miserably as he crawled out of the door, and fell into the water with a plop.

Very short effort.

"You say...... He's not going to drown, is he? ”

"It's best to drown!" Someone immediately took over, "It's just your mother's waste!" Come on...... Light the lights first, the black is weird and scary. ”

The four of them took out the flint and lit the lamp with their hands and feet, and sat down around the table.

It's still the person just now: "Thank you brothers this time, I, Yang San, have taken revenge." ”

"I've long seen this kid as unpleasant! My hands and feet are not clean, last time I was drunk, I directly reached into my pocket and touched something, but it was nothing compared to Brother Yang! ”

"He actually wants to poison me......" Yang San still gritted his teeth when he talked about this, "If you can't gamble, don't gamble, for that little money." ”

"He is murdering for money, and we are pretending to be gods and ghosts to scare him, which is already very polite."

Uncle Yuan still couldn't help laughing: "This kid is really timid, he is scared like this in a few words, like a little girl, if he really goes to the battlefield, he can't pee himself." ”

"Uncle Yuan!"

Yang Sanxu pulled the oil lamp on the table with a serious feeling, shone it on the ground, and beckoned a few people to come and see.

I saw that Zhang Xiaoer's knife was left on the ground, and it was indeed wet next to it.

The four men looked up at each other, and they couldn't stop laughing.

Everywhere in Banli City, the people of the Green Tooth Army are nothing more than like this, laughing and talking about the next three indiscriminate jokes, but no matter on the street or the door that has been pushed open, there are no other superfluous people.

It was almost midnight, and the lazy people had already found a place, wrapped themselves in clothes and quilts that they had scavenged everywhere, and fell asleep on the ground.

It's okay if they're all asleep, maybe it's still a peaceful night tonight.

At the beginning, it was a bald middle-aged man, who left the team and walked crookedly for a while, but although the half-mile city was small, it mostly relied on waterways, and without a boat, it was like a duck without feathers.

He walked around the houses and walked around again, and suddenly it felt that it was not interesting to wander around like this, so he stopped under a sign that read "Dye House".

He held the oil lamp in one hand and the black tooth knife in the other, and stretched the lamp out as far as he could, but the distance from the oil lamp was less than a meter, and he couldn't see anything.

"Forget it," he muttered to himself, "find a place to lie down for a while......

Saying that, he was about to push the door behind him, this household was a big house, there was a small courtyard with a square stone road, the wall was painted flat, and there were a few white flowers poking out of the wall, and when the wind blew, a strange fragrance fell.

He sang a spring song all the way to the door, and stretched out his hand to push it.

"Huh?"

Everywhere else there are unlocked doors, and this hand is still tightly closed.

The bald drowsiness suddenly woke up, and he repeatedly pondered how many possibilities there were.

How could anyone? No, I just went in and saw it...... Could it be that the other team took the house first?

With this calculation, anger began to burn the whole person.

"Damn, Lao Tzu came first!" He scolded as he ripped open his collar and prepared to kick the door, "I slipped in while Lao Tzu wasn't paying attention, and dared to lock the door!" ”

One foot out, "bang", the door bolt was still on the door, but the door panel was broken from the frame, and the thick door panel slapped into the courtyard, and the white flowers in the place turned into powder.

"Ah......h

A terrible scream sounded, and it seemed that someone had reached out to cover half of it, and it exploded so that his ears hurt strangely.

He looked out and saw white flowers on his face, and he couldn't see anything from any distance.

"Pearl!" A woman's voice, "Quick...... Come on! ”

"Huh? Woman ......"

The bald man suddenly came to his senses, and was about to raise his feet to cross the threshold, but he heard a sound of broken footsteps from the stone path, and a figure that was not high enough to run towards him, and he could not grasp it with both hands, and the child went out as soon as he was a cat.

But then again, he didn't plan to do anything to this kid.

The bald man turned around and took a picture in the courtyard, lowered his voice and shouted, "Is there anyone?" ”

Even if you are far away, you can hear the extreme hunger and thirst in this sound.

Who isn't? What's more, it's a person who has been a single person for most of his life.

As the saying goes, as long as it is a woman, she is not more than half a hundred years old, there are no pockmarks on her face, and her hands and feet are healthy, she can go into his private pocket, which is a well-known thing in the Qingya Army.

At this moment, the longing in the ditch on the bald man's face is like saliva on the side of his mouth, which can flow to the ground in a flash.

Walking through the small courtyard on the stone road, he had come to the door, the door was dark, he stood his knife outside the courtyard door with his backhand, saluted the inside of the house in a respectful manner, and said respectfully: "What a disturbance...... We passed through here, and I didn't think that it was dark, and I was slow on my hands and feet, so I was left behind, can I disturb for a night? ”

After he finished speaking, there was no reply from the door, and he had already entered the door without stopping, and searched up and down the house with an oil lamp, and his eyes shone with shrewd light, like a wild beast that preyed on at night.

"That...... I was offended just now, I hope it didn't scare you, tomorrow morning when it dawns, I will be responsible for repairing the courtyard gate......"

With a "clang", a kettle was thrown at his feet, and his heart tightened, so he lowered his head to check.

But in this moment, a figure with a broom in his hand struck him on the back of the neck.

It's a pity that the strength is too small, he just shook it, immediately stood firm, and hugged the figure who tried to run out of the door with a backhand.
