Chapter 59: The Bronze Man Tribulation
The sunset faded from the heat of the light, and the beads of sweat on their foreheads quickly cooled.
The official road to Tongren Town was indeed unimpeded, and Liang Ping's worries could not be resolved immediately. I wanted to send a voice message greeting, but I felt that I couldn't appear in Yindu City immediately, and everything seemed insincere.
The mushroom boy seemed to see through Liang Ping's mood, and said with a comforting face: "You are worried about the safety of Yindu City, this is really rare, no matter your ability, whether your mind is really strong or not, but I believe that sooner or later you will become a really powerful man, you can rest assured, as long as we solve the problem of the capital of death, the problem of Yindu will be solved." ”
Although Liang Ping has not really comprehended the ability of the mushroom boy, he can have great confidence in her for no reason. But I still can't help but worry in my heart, can Yindu City really survive this difficult time.
When I came to the outside of Bronze Man Town, it was already evening when the bright moon was hanging high. Bathed in the white moonlight, the town of Bronze Man looks tranquil and serene.
By the moonlight, it is not difficult to see that Tongren Town is an ancient town.
There are no towering city walls on the periphery of the ancient town, only ordinary houses, only narrow streets, only muddy mountain paths, and only a few thousand-year-old temples can be seen, but it is an excellent place for health preservation by the water and mountains.
"Yo Xi, is this the Bronze Man Town, a thousand-year-old town, so well preserved." The mushroom boy suddenly stretched out his arms, as if hugging the blue sky and bright moon, with a happy face.
"Whew!"
Liang Ping also closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and suddenly felt much better.
"It's full of nature, and if you can stay here all year round, then it's worth living."
The mushroom boy's words aroused Liang Ping's deeper interest. Suddenly thought that in the ultimate hell, when the identity of the mushroom boy was still Xia Hongmei, he had always longed for a place to live.
Then he also smiled and said: "What's so difficult, if you really want to live here, after we have solved everything, I will personally buy you a house here." ”
When the mushroom boy heard this, he smiled gratefully.
But he said helplessly: "If you can really get your wish, it will naturally be the best thing, but you don't know, all the princes and nobles in the Lingzhou Continent, who doesn't want to live in Tongren Town, but every inch of land here is worth a thousand gold, and ordinary people can't afford to live at all." ”
Liang Ping was shocked when he heard this, and looked around, even though the environment here is excellent, but after all, it is too ordinary, and it seems to be a bit too much to say that it is worth a thousand gold.
Unexpectedly, the mushroom boy suddenly said: "Judging from the appearance, Bronze Town is just an ordinary township, and it seems to be a relatively poor township, but the people who live here, because they breathe the fresh air here all year round and eat the food grown here, their bodies can be as hard as copper and invulnerable." ”
"Oh? There is such a miraculous thing. ”
Liang Ping secretly exclaimed in his heart, this Lingzhou Continent was really like the fairy world, not only had humans who could survive for thousands of years, but also had various miracles.
"But there are still many people who don't want to live here, and most of the people who are willing to come are tired of living and want to talk about this life as soon as possible."
"Huh?" Liang Ping exclaimed and asked, "Then why." ”
"Hee-hee." The mushroom boy smiled cutely: "Because they want to be invulnerable, they will naturally pay some price." ”
"Amount"
Walking into Bronze Man Town, Mushroom Boy stopped talking. Liang Ping also remained silent.
There was a dead silence all around, and I couldn't feel the slightest breath of life at all.
The streets of Bronze Town are like deep alleys, long and dim, and there is a chance that the faint moonlight will spill in obliquely, but you can also see the road under your feet.
Liang Ping walked in front of the mushroom boy, and the Liuyun Sword in his hand was already on guard.
However, what was surprising was that according to Chen Hai's setting, there should be a bronze man monster here. However, after walking around the Bronze Man Town for nearly 10 minutes, not only did he not see any trace of half of the monster, but he also did not see a single living human.
The mushroom boy suddenly grabbed Liang Ping's hand tightly, and said with a heavy face: "It is rumored that the lights in Bronze Town are not extinguished day and night, but it is so dim here, it is completely different from the rumors, could it be that something happened to him." ”
Liang Ping frowned, and secretly wondered in his heart, could it be that the bronze man was doing the blame. I didn't know how to speak.
As if he suddenly thought of something, the mushroom boy continued: "Is it just a nonsense rumor that the lights in Bronze Man Town are not extinguished, or that the people here have run out of oil. ”
Liang Ping's frowning eyebrows deepened, and he couldn't help asking, "The lights in Tongren Town don't go out day and night, what is going on." ”
"It is rumored that every dwelling in Bronze Man Town is a Bronze Man Lighthouse, and they are born to be destined to live in Bronze Man, even if they are too poor to have a copper plate, they can still live here safely."
Liang Ping's heart suddenly chilled, he originally wanted to buy a house for the mushroom boy and settle here, but it seemed that it was impossible to achieve it. But what was even more shocking in my heart was that everyone was really dead.
is to take the delicate hand of the mushroom boy and sneak into a farmer.
Coincidentally, the farmer was right in the center of Copperman Town.
"Crunch"
Pushing the door in, I saw that this was a courtyard full of ceramics. It's just that at the entrance of each door of the quadrangle, a gossip mirror is hung. It looks like a thing that drives away evil and avoids evil in this world.
Not only that, but the east and west doors of the courtyard are pasted with red charms, while the north side, that is, the door of the lobby, is pasted with purple charms.
In the light of the moon, the purple spell glowed faintly.
"What's that?" Liang Ping asked incredulously.
Even though the mushroom boy thinks that he is erudite and talented, he knows the past and the present, but he is also confused by this.
"I don't see any clues for the time being."
Liang Ping felt that the palm of the mushroom boy began to sweat, and he seemed to be particularly nervous. Such nervousness seemed to be extremely contagious, and Liang Ping's palms broke out in cold sweat for no reason.
The mushroom boy suddenly shook off Liang Ping's hand, and said with a displeased face: "Why are you a big man so timid here, quickly, you go and see the situation in the lobby." ”
"Amount"
Liang Ping was not so nervous originally, but when he saw the hesitation on the face of the mushroom boy, he also felt a trace of solemnity.
"What's the matter, you dare to even break into hell, are you still afraid of such a small farmer?"
"Cut, who told you I'm scared."
Liang Ping strode towards the lobby without admitting defeat, but before he could see the appearance of the purple charm, he heard a strange sound coming from the lobby.
"Bang"
It sounded like someone was slapping a quilt with a stick.
"Bang"
The sound didn't stop at once.
"Bang"
"Bang"
"Bang"
The sound of increasing urgency was a little strange in this dim courtyard.
But Liang Ping's long sword shook coldly, cutting through the cold wind, and the long sword clanged.
"Crunch"
Liang Ping cautiously pushed open the wooden door of the lobby. Looking tentatively into the lobby.
"Whew!"
Suddenly, a wolf howl came from inside the lobby.
Liang Ping subconsciously used his long sword to block, but he didn't receive any attacks. Just a 10-year-old child stepped out of the dark lobby.
The child had a slender stick in his hand, and he was flapping the cotton coat he was wearing.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
The sound was very rhythmic. When he walked past Liang Ping, he didn't even look at Liang Ping.
Liang Ping looked at the child in surprise, there was no ID display on his head, and there was no electronic information display everywhere on his body. My heart was shocked again, could it be that the system was wrong again?
At this moment, there was a sound of gnawing bones in the lobby.
"Gaba Gaba"
The voice was extremely brisk.
"Whew~"
Seeing it coldly, a gust of wind hit me out of nowhere.
Not only did it scrape away the purple spell pasted on the lobby door, but it also struck a strong smell of blood.
Liang Ping had an ominous omen in his heart, and at this moment, the child was slowly approaching the side of the mushroom boy. Liang Ping stared at the child's back, the rhythm of his swinging stick slowed down, and his steps began to become a little hesitant.
Mushroom Boy's face began to turn pale, as if he had seen something dirty, and he fell into a sluggish dread.
Liang Ping didn't care about the strange sound coming from the lobby and the strong smell of blood, but just strode towards the mushroom boy, blocking the mushroom boy behind him, between the mushroom boy and the child.
Sure enough, at this time, I really saw clearly, and it turned out that the child's eyes were long gone. And his cheeks were covered with blood, and the blood was still slowly flowing down his heavy cotton coat, perhaps penetrating his chest. But he didn't have the slightest expression on his face, and walked straight out of the door, even if he didn't rely on his eyes, he could accurately cross the threshold.
"That's"
"That's"
The mushroom boy suddenly realized, and suddenly couldn't cry.
Liang Ping looked at the mushroom boy puzzled.
"Whew!"
Suddenly, a wolf howl was heard from inside the lobby again.
A gray wolf quickly rushed out of the lobby, its body was extremely vigorous, and it rushed out of the courtyard in a few steps, as if it didn't notice where Liang Ping and the two of them were.
The smell of blood on the gray wolf was disgusting as it swept past them.
But Mushroom Boy's mood is still extremely unstable.
Liang Ping asked with concern, "What's wrong with you?" ”
"That's the Bronze Man."
Mushroom Boy finally said the sentence in its entirety.
Liang Ping was shocked.
"What is the Bronze Man Tribulation?"
"Even all the people who live in Bronze Town will die today."
"Everyone, but the kid just now clearly didn't have it"
Before Liang Ping finished speaking, he heard a sound of "Gaba Gaba" coming from outside the door.
When he stepped out, he saw that in the dim alley, the gray wolf was gnawing on the child's limbs.
The child lay on the ground, clearly not dying, but he did not make a single shout, not even a muffled grunt.
"Zheng!"
With a wave of Liang Ping's long sword, he wanted to step forward and take the gray wolf.
And at this moment, the mushroom boy came up to stop him and said, "Don't! ”
Liang Ping was stunned: "Why, can we really see death without help." ”
"This is their fate, the people of Bronze Town are invulnerable, but they can be eaten by a few gray wolves today, don't you understand?"
"Huh"
Liang Ping smiled faintly and said: "What do I want to understand, I want to understand why you didn't save you when you died, and why you clearly knew about the Bronze Tribulation, but you refused to hurry up and come early." ”
"As I said, you can't leak it, there are some things you don't understand, and you can't explain it clearly."
Liang Ping looked at the originally beautiful face of the mushroom boy, and suddenly felt an indescribable ugliness and disgust. There was no reprimand, no accusation, just an indifferent turn.
It doesn't matter how the child's body was eaten by the gray wolf, and it doesn't matter how sad the night is.
Continuing to stride south, the mushroom boy strode after him.
The two were silent for a long time, and when they finally walked out of Bronze Town, they heard the familiar sound of the waves.
Liang Ping knew that it was the sound of the rising tide in Qinhu Lake.
"The Bronze Tribulation is an accessory of the Millennium Tribulation, every Millennium Tribulation, no matter whether it starts or ends, the Bronze Town will inevitably suffer a catastrophe, the life span of that gray wolf is only one day, and the remaining Millennium Tribulation will die in the Millennium Tribulation, after he eats all the bronze people in the Ten Thousand Bronze Man Town, he will die immediately, and you don't need to take action at all."
The mushroom boy finally explained to Liang Ping.
Liang Ping didn't want to say a word, standing on the bank of Qinhu Lake, the evening breeze was cold and tight, and his whole body had goosebumps.
But the mushroom boy continued: "Actually, you don't have to be like this, if my behavior makes you feel unhappy, then you can leave here, I believe that there will always be someone willing to accompany me to solve this millennium tribulation." ”
Liang Ping said lightly: "I believe that you have your reasons for doing that, I'm just unhappy, can't you tell me what you do, is it true that in your heart, I am really just a bodyguard, do you think I can really only take on the responsibility of protecting your personal safety." ”
The mushroom boy suddenly smiled and said, "Of course not, I just think that some things may be worse than not saying them." ”
"Hehe, yes."
Liang Ping wrapped his hands around the Liuyun Sword, no longer looked at the mushroom boy, and looked at the Qinhu Lake farther away, as if he saw a glimmer of hope in the haze, and it was like a bubble.
The mushroom boy was also looking at the Qin Lake farther away, his eyes were extremely deep. After all, she didn't explain too much to Liang Ping, but said lightly: "If the bronze man does not die, Lingzhou will be chaotic, the gray wolf is a messenger sent by God, it was born to exist to defend Lingzhou, when I saw that child, I used my fingers to pick out my eyes, do you know how much my heart hurts, he is just a child, he is also innocent, do you think I am really so ruthless, but turn a blind eye to it, but what we want to save is not a small copper town, but the entire silver empire, Even the entire Lingzhou Continent, do you understand? ”
Liang Ping's eyes couldn't help but get wet, because the mushroom boy's voice was full of sorrow, and every sentence was heartfelt and touching. What the mushroom boy thinks, isn't it also what Liang Ping thinks. Fang Cai didn't immediately become a gray wolf, wasn't he also waiting for the mushroom boy to stop it.
"Hehe, actually, we're all the same."
Cold tears slid down his cheeks, and I don't know if it was because of his relationship with the mushroom boy, or because he felt pity for what happened to the kid just now.
