Chapter 129: The Temple Story
Lin Yan walked into the big hall, and the top floor of the seemingly narrow temple was unusually wide. On the surrounding walls carved with murals, several lights danced along with the flow of air. The air in the main hall felt heavy and dusty because no one had been there for a long time. But at the same time, there is also a slight smell of blood that is difficult to hide, and in the dusty feeling, it looks different.
But at this time, Lin Yan, under the coercion of time, did not have much mood to appreciate the carefully constructed temple of this system. He sped forward along the conspicuous footprints in the dust of the ground, and climbed upstairs layer by layer.
With only ten minutes left to do the task, Lin Yan finally reached the top of the buildingβor the bottom of the building. In the dim light, a figure sitting on a throne in the main hall would be reflected on the wall, and the flickering lights would appear and disappear.
"You still chased after ......" An old voice rippled in this hall, and Lin Yan couldn't tell the source of the voice at all. But he didn't need to tell either, for the owner of the old voice slowly descended from the throne.
He has been in this house, and he is by the throne. But the unique shadow formed by the lights shrouded him all the time, and because of this, Lin Yan didn't notice this guy at first.
The old man slowly walked about three meters in front of Lin Yan, looked at Lin Yan's face, and slowly closed his eyes: "Outsiders, do you mind listening to our story?" β
And with the old man's words, the task timer that had been beating non-stop actually stopped. After that, the old man Fang opened his eyes again.
Without the coercion of time, Lin Yan's mood was also much lighter. He nodded at the old man, but his gaze still scanned around vigilantly.
"It's a good thing to be careful." Looking at Lin Yan's actions, the old man exclaimed with a smile, and then his gaze turned to the figure on the throne, who struggled for a moment before finally standing up.
But it seemed that the body of this prisoner NPC was not very good after escaping all the way, and he walked in front of Lin Yan with the support of the old man.
Under the reflection of the lights, the appearance of the prisoner NPC looked different from that of the person Lin Yan saw in the outside world.
"This old guy is only here to show his true colors." The old man holding the prisoner NPC smiled and said.
"Really?" Lin Yan was puzzled.
"What you see outside is nothing more than the result of this old fellow's disguise. What you see now is the real appearance of this old guy. It's strange that an old man who is about to die is what the official calls a Jiangyang thief, or even a flower thief. β
The old man laughed, but there was a mockery in his words. The old man, who was supported by him, shook his head, and managed to sit down in front of a chair. Only then did Lin Yan discover that on the shoulder of this prisoner NPC, there was a deep wound that could be seen that was gurgling with blood.
"Come on, little one, sit down and talk. It won't delay you too long. The old man smiled, and at the same time, a chair appeared behind Lin Yan.
"Yes." Lin Yan said.
"This temple of yin and yang was created by our holy lord at the beginning. And this old guy and I are the yin and yang protectors of this temple. The old man's eyes did not look at Lin Yan, but at the murals engraved on the wall.
"My name is Cangxuan, and this old guy is named Xuyan. Back then, our Holy Lord relied on the Great Array of Reverse Sky to create this temple with his own strength and recruit talents from all over the world. And Lao Xuan and I also chose to join this Yin and Yang Temple together at that time. β
"At that time, the world was full of disasters and difficulties. Far less prosperous and happy than it is now. Lao Xuan and I joined this temple just to have a good meal. didn't think about it, but the Holy Lord took a fancy to the two of us, taught us martial arts, and finally made the two of us the Yin and Yang protectors of this temple, and our status was second only to the Holy Lord. β
"I think back then, because of the great grace of the Holy Lord, his prestige was terrifying to the world. Thousands of miles away, no one knows, no one knows. The days of our Yin Yang Temple were also extremely comfortable at that time. Until one day, the Lord came to us and told us that calamity was coming......"
"Disaster?" Lin Yan asked in a low voice.
"That's right, disaster." Cang Xuan nodded, "The strength of the Holy Lord, it is difficult to find an opponent in this thousands of miles. The Yin and Yang Temple of that year actually prospered completely because of the blessing of the Holy Lord. But it's hard to find an opponent, but it's not without an opponent. On that day, the greatest calamity of our Yin-Yang Temple finally came......"
"In my old memory, I only remember the person who came to the door, claiming to be a god. And the Holy Lord is the betrayer of their Protoss. The Holy Lord, including the Yin-Yang Temple he founded, and all the people here, will be punished for the sins of the Holy Lord. β
"Protoss!" Lin Yan raised his head suddenly, he didn't expect that he would hear the title of Protoss here again.
"What, you've had contact with that Protoss?" Cang Xuan looked at Lin Yan with a shocked expression.
"No, just a vague knowledge of them." Lin Yan shook his head and explained.
"That's fine. Listen to the old man's advice, don't inquire about things related to the Protoss. None of the people who have anything to do with them have a good end. Cang Xuan patted his chest in horror and said, "In the battle that day, Xu Yan and I fought desperately to stop it, but we couldn't hurt the people of the visiting Protoss in the slightest. On the contrary, in the opponent's casual attack, all the power was sealed. Moreover, it was with the help of the Holy Lord that the two of us were able to pick up a life. β
As he spoke, Cang Xuan's eyes looked at Xuyan and said, "The wound on his shoulder was injured by the Protoss. For thousands of years, he still hasn't been cured. As soon as there is a violent movement, the wound will open again. β
Lin Yan looked at the wound, and secretly said in his heart that the bleeding effect was too strong.
Among their players, there are attacks that can inflict the Bleed effect. The bleeding effect is to inflict a wound that cannot be healed for a few seconds, and deal a certain amount of damage.
"And what about your holy lord?" Lin Yan asked again, this key role doesn't seem to have too many scenes.
"In that great war, the Protoss came for our Holy Lord. But the calamity they brought about did not happen to the Holy Lord alone. The carnage they caused is difficult to describe in words. I can only tell you that they kill no more than trampling an ant to death. β
"In the beginning, the Holy Lord had been fighting to the death with one of the three people who had been visited by the Protoss, but their strength was almost the same, and no one could help the other. But under the slaughter caused by the other two Protoss, the Holy Lord despaired. He knew he could no longer escape. β
At that moment, he turned his body into heaven and earth. At that moment, even the three members of the Protoss had to be forced back. The energy generated by his self-destruction protected every remnant of the Yin Yang Temple. The protection he gave was a defense that the Protoss could not break at that time. β
"And then, the Protoss is gone?" Lin Yan asked.
"It's not that easy." Cang Xuan smiled bitterly, "The Protoss is a tyrannical race. In their eyes, we are nothing more than ants. But as a guy who claims to be a god from above, after the fall of the Holy Lord, he is not willing to spend any more time dealing with us ants. As a result, the Protoss signed a contract with the Terran leaders at that time, and the Protoss provided the power, while they were responsible for hunting down and killing us, the remnants of the Yin Yang Temple. β
"Thousands of years have passed, and those who survived our Yin-Yang Temple have been living carefully in the human world, and have inherited the power that only belongs to our Yin-Yang Temple. But unfortunately, in another accidental action, Lao Xuan was still discovered. He couldn't get rid of the seal of the Protoss, so he was simply captured by those people and imprisoned in prison. β
"I also learned about it by accident. With some of the power I have recovered over these thousand years, I have snatched him back from your hands and opened the doors of this Yin-Yang Temple. It's just that what I didn't expect was that you would be able to keep up. β
At the end of Cangxuan's words, there was already a trace of surprise in his tone......
