Chapter 199: Half the Truth (3)
This single word was like a terrible spell, and it instantly hooked his soul and god.
"No, I volunteered. Don't you ever understand that in the face of death, what my husband is more afraid of is that you leave me alone.
In that case, life for a husband will be worse than death.
If you die, your husband will not live alone.
And, madam, you may not know that the secret method has another function. That is, the person who uses this secret method and the person he wants to save will be connected from now on.
If so, one of them died first. The other one won't survive either.
So, madam, try to live, for only then will none of us die.
As long as you live well, I can live well, understand? My lady! ”
The city lord's wife's pupils contracted unconsciously, and her eyes bulged with a shocked look.
It turned out that she was the one who really almost killed the person she loved the most.
For a while, she suddenly had a thousand words in her heart that she wanted to talk to her husband, but when the words came to her mouth, she suddenly didn't know what to say.
Immediately, she paused for a long time before speaking
"I will definitely try to live, with you!"
Both of them looked at each other and smiled with tears in their eyes, full of tacit understanding. It seems that at this moment, not only are their lives connected, but even their souls are deeply embedded with each other at this moment.
If it weren't for the fact that Qi Zhuoyi held the city lord's wife hostage, I am afraid that the two would have hugged each other desperately.
The two people who were standing aside eating melons were very discerning, and they didn't say anything.
It seemed like a long time had passed before the two of them got out of that sweet eye contact.
Yuan Yun looked at the scene in front of him, his face was still very calm.
To say that there is no feeling is false. Seeing this scene, Yuanyun unconsciously thought of his father and queen mother. The same is true of their relationship.
It's just that......
Yuanyun quickly pulled away from the memories of the past.
For some reason, at this time, Yuanyun had a feeling of uneasiness in her heart, which made her feel uneasy.
"That's all said and done, let's go. As soon as we see the scales, we'll let you and your wife go. By the way, let's continue what I just said. ”
Yuanyun turned around indifferently, and the uneasiness in his heart became even stronger.
When the city lord and the city lord's wife heard this, they all immediately came back to their senses.
The city lord recalled it, but he couldn't remember where he said for a while.
"Where did I come from?"
Qi Zhuoyi said angrily: "Where did you save your wife with a secret method?" ”
"Oh, yes, yes, that's it.
Later, I couldn't help it. More and more people died in Xiangzhou City. But I can't do anything to reduce the number of deaths.
And even if it does, it doesn't work. Because that's my real power, in fact, has been transferred to that man's hands.
As for what the man did, I have no way of knowing.
I can only deduce from the information I get about the man on a daily basis that he must have set up a formation here. And the sacrifices of this great array are all the people of Xiangzhou City.
In fact, in the month since his arrival, the death toll has been mounting. But no one died in the second month of his arrival.
Just when I thought his conscience had found out, the truth gave me a hard slap in the face.
The people of Xiangzhou City, who were alive and well in the past, were all like puppets controlled by others, losing all their vitality and vitality.
However, they still live as usual, eating what they should eat, farming what they should do, and buying and selling what they should do.
However, much conversation between them was missing. Even if there are a few sentences of communication, it seems very rigid and rigid.
Later, the people in my house gradually became like puppets.
So I left only a dozen maids to serve me and my wife.
When I thought that the worst thing was the current situation,
The most terrible thing happened.
Every day, people are summoned to the city lord's mansion, but none of the people who are summoned to the mansion have ever come in.
They have disappeared from my city lord's mansion. Even I don't know where they went.
But I understand that there is a good chance that they are actually dead.
At this time, the people of Xiangzhou City had actually become a little vigilant, but many of their ancestors had grown up here, and they had nowhere else to go except here.
So even though they were aware of the danger, they didn't leave.
However, things are still fermenting.
More and more people came to the city lord's mansion, and more and more people disappeared for no reason, until there were few people left in Xiangzhou City. ”
Yuan Yun couldn't help but wonder, "Since the situation is getting more and more serious, isn't there anyone who is afraid of death and leaves?" It's all folded here? ”
As soon as the city lord thought of this, he sighed weakly and said, "Naturally, there are, and there are also some city residents who see that the situation is not right, so they move their families and want to leave here."
However, they would not go out of the range of fifty miles from Xiangzhou City.
For whoever goes beyond that distance will die of difficulty breathing as he walks farther and farther away.
No one is exempt.
So, finally, the night before, the last four people also disappeared.
And those stone Buddhas appeared last night, and they hadn't seen them again because of the man's arrival.
And tonight is the first time that the stone Buddhas have appeared since the man came here.
I think today may be the day of the fall of Xiangzhou City.
I was thinking that I would have a good time with my wife, but now you are here again. ”
Yuan Yun didn't answer, but directly ignored the city lord's complaints, and asked, "Didn't you say that there were capable people who came here to help before?" ”
When the city lord heard Yuanyun's words, he couldn't help but sneer, "The girl is from Chongming, and she should know that those spirits who thought they were powerful who came in were dead.
Didn't you knowingly ask?
Girl, don't think about it. This Xiangzhou city can only enter, not exit. And those who come in are only dead.
You will not be excluded. ”
Yuan Yun still ignored the city lord's words, and asked rhetorically again, "That man, do you know what rank he is?" ”
The city lord who was still a little enthusiastic just now quieted down, his face was a little solemn, and there was a worry in his eyes, but more - fear!
That's right, Yuanyun knew that it was fear, fear from the inside out.
For a long time, the city lord only said five words about it: "He is strong, strong." ”
Yuan Yun asked, "I'm asking him what rank he is." ”
