Chapter 82. cause

Li Lao came back in the evening, and saw a few children sitting there with their heads down, not at all as happy as the previous two days, and they didn't shout that they were going to play there tomorrow, something must have happened, and they were scared. So he sat down next to him and asked what was going on.

Several people were still frightened, Jiucheng greeted Li Lao respectfully, and said with a smile: "They saw with their own eyes that someone burned without fire, burned into a piece of carbon, and was frightened." After all, they are still children, and they have never seen a harsher situation. However, I also think it's strange, I'm sure there's no one around to sneak attack, and no one has cast spells, so why does it burn so quickly? Old Li, you are well-informed, what is going on? ”

"Oh? So, does it happen so often here in Shangjing? Li Lao asked suspiciously.

"Including this one, it's the third one. And they are all high-ranking officials on the second grade, do you think it has something to do with the princes competing for the throne? Jiucheng nodded and replied.

"It's very possible at the moment, but how can it be circulated? Who brought it out? How did you bring it out? Li Lao said to himself.

"What's wrong? Li Lao? Tell me about it. Do you know what caused it? Jiucheng raised his voice excitedly as he asked.

Xiao Yao and the others also looked at Li Lao expectantly, hoping that Li Lao would explain how this bizarre incident happened, it was really incomprehensible that people were scared, and they couldn't sleep at night if they didn't figure it out.

Li Lao looked at the eager expressions of several people, and said calmly: "This is just my guess, whether it is really this reason, I can't say for sure." ”

"It doesn't matter, Master, you can say it quickly, as long as you can explain this." Xiao Yao wanted to know why, all she heard in her previous life was a legend and nothing that had been confirmed, but there was really something here.

"Well, I'll tell you about that too. Let you also embankment. ”

Xiao Yao nodded in unison, and the other people in the inn also sat down and listened, wondering what was going on, it was possible to make people spontaneously combust without magic, such an evil sect.

Li Lao talked about his experience: Li Lao was only in his 40s at that time, and he came out to practice, and he happened to be in Luoyang City at that time, which was a small city about 10 kilometers away from Shangjing, which was a very good place, with trade and traffic extending in all directions, and the distance from Shangjing was not very far, so it was also very prosperous. In that city, there were thirteen cases of such people burning naturally, and they couldn't save them if they wanted to, but at that time it caused a very terrifying atmosphere, thinking that they were cursed, many people fled there, and it almost became a dead city. At that time, I was also very curious, this mortal can spontaneously combust without spells, that is impossible, so I pretended to be an official to go to the person who had an accident to investigate, at first they were reluctant to say, with some means, they all said in detail that the behavior of several people before the accident was strange, it turned out that these thirteen people had secretly been to the mountains together, and after they came back, they had accidents one after another. I asked why I didn't tell the previous officials, and they said that the government stipulated that they couldn't go privately to explore the surrounding mountains and caves, and if they found out, they would be severely punished, so they didn't dare to say it. Then I realized that the officials who came to investigate didn't find anything. ”

Li Lao drank a cup of tea slowly, looked at everyone's anxious expressions, and asked, "Has any of you heard of this?" Do you want to check it out? ”

Li Lao looked at everyone's ignorant expressions, and saw that Lao Qiu was also here, so he said, "You still have less experience." There is indeed a secret in the area of Luoyang City, this is how many people broke into a certain place, came out and were burned to death, did they enter a certain cemetery, and were cursed? That's what people believed at the time. What do you think? ”

"Say it quickly, Master, don't sell it, you see everyone's eyes are shining. You wouldn't say that this secret place is under Luoyang City, right? ”

"That's right, Xiao Yao, how do you know?" Li Lao looked at Xiao Yao with bright eyes and asked, The children I have educated are indeed different, look at other stupid guys.

"Huh, really? I think that's what I intuitively think. Xiao Yao saw that Li Lao did not accept such an answer, and said again: "It's dark under the lamp, you think, if you want to cover up something, that is, to build some buildings on the same place, building a city is the best, there are people living, activities, and transactions, which can confuse the public, and can be monitored, and if something happens, it can be controlled in time." ”

"Yes, Xiao Yao is right. At that time, I didn't know that there was such a place, and I didn't find anything when I checked around, and I didn't find the doorway. So I spent a sum of money to buy news on the black market, and the black market sells all the news and intelligence, and it is very expensive. Li Lao continued.

Everyone nodded unanimously in acknowledging that the black market is indeed very expensive, but that's not the point, okay, wondering what happened later.

"It's also a tragic, helpless history. The original site of the current Luoyang City is also a big city, but this big city has indeed sunk to the ground, why did it sink? It is because this big city was built to cover the underground underground palace, and after thousands of years, thousands of years, or ten thousand years, due to various reasons, the underground palace could not bear the big city, so the city sank. The underground palace is generally built very deep, so that the people in the original city must have died and injured countless people, and the living people must also eat and drink, and find a water source underground, waiting for someone to come to the rescue. When he was finally saved, he saw the sun, and the rescued person felt that his blood was boiling and wanted to burn, so some people quickly hid in the darkness and escaped, while those who did not hide burned and became a piece of carbon. Later, I found that these people couldn't live in the sun, no matter how weak the sunlight was, so this place was sealed again, and Luoyang City was established on the original site, in fact, it should be Luoyang City. And the people who survived underground built an underground city in the original underground palace. This dungeon is unknown. ”

The big guys were stunned, this was something they had never heard before, and Li Lao continued: "The official mansion has blocked the news, so as not to let some mortals who don't know the height of the sky and the thickness of the earth break in and lose their lives." ”

"Is it because the people in the dungeon can't see the sun because they're poisoned? If you don't see sunlight all year round and can only live in the dark, is there no problem at all? Can you see the lights? Xiao Yao asked again.
