Chapter 305: The World Underground of the Imperial City
When Yanyu followed General Yuan Feng to the central garden of Tianhe Square, he found that this place where passers-by usually rested temporarily had been surrounded by officers and soldiers, and it was obvious that outsiders could not break in casually.
Although the people passing by nearby also looked inside, but the trees in the central garden were tall and abounding, and it was difficult to see inside at a glance, so they didn't understand what was going on inside, and it didn't make sense to look at it for a while, so they left again and went to other places.
After all, there are still parades to celebrate the Flower God Festival in other places, so it is much more lively than this cold central garden, so gradually the people will not pay attention to this garden.
Only the general Yuan Feng and the goddess Empress Dowager Yanyu dressed as tourists continued to walk towards the central garden.
When walking towards the central garden, Yanyu also asked the general curiously, that is, why the central garden died before, and there are people in the vicinity who are still interested in parading to continue to celebrate the Flower God Festival.
The general Yuan Feng's answer was that in order to avoid causing panic and riots, the government had already made clear internal regulations that whenever there were unknown casualties on major festivals, the scene should be sealed in time, the news should be blocked, and the court should be reported as soon as possible.
As for the civilians who had witnessed the casualties in the vicinity, they were all temporarily left in a vacant lot in the central garden by the officers and soldiers on the pretext of investigating the case, until the imperial court sent someone to resolve the crisis, and then released them.
In other words, all the people who knew about these strange deaths were staying in the central garden at the moment and were not allowed to leave without permission.
In order to prevent them from making trouble because of this dissatisfaction, the officers and soldiers will quietly release a ** fragrance to make these people fall into a coma, and wait until the matter has passed, and then wake them up.
Therefore, when Yan Yu entered the central garden, he saw some people lying motionless on a meadow.
And the dead bodies were placed on the grass on the other side, and they were covered with straw mats.
Considering that he was protected by the mask of the goddess, even if these corpses really got the plague, it was impossible for them to infect him, so Yanyu was not worried that he would be infected.
But when Yanyu understood that if the general Yuan Feng was too close to the corpse, he was afraid that he would be infected, so he hurriedly asked the general to stand on the periphery and wait for her, there was no need to accompany her to check the corpse.
At first, the general Yuan Feng was embarrassed to let the Empress Dowager go to check the body alone, and still insisted on accompanying the Empress Dowager to go in to check it together, but at the Empress Dowager's insistence, he had no choice but to agree.
When Yanyu came to one of the corpses, he found that the corpse was missing a calf.
Later, Yanyu took a look at the other corpses and found that some of their bodies were missing to varying degrees.
The missing part does not look like it was cut by a knife, but rather like it came off naturally and disappeared.
In this regard, Yanyu also felt very incredible, which was indeed different from the corpses in the previous Northwest Plague Outbreak Area.
In order to find out what was going on, Yanyu once again used the powerful power of the goddess's mask to carefully scan the entire corpse.
Although I didn't see any useful clues, there is one thing that Yan Yu can be sure of, that is, the situation that appeared in the Imperial City Tianhe Square this time is more or less related to the Soul Devouring Poisonous Ants.
Because of careful smoke and rain, it was found that the flesh of these corpses had not been damaged in any way, except for a part, the other parts were intact.
Obviously, these people should be the soul of the attack, so they fell into a coma, and when the soul was completely devoured, they were completely dead.
It's just that Yanyu feels strange that the only thing she knows can erode the human body and devour souls is the Northwest Plague outbreak and the Soul Eater Poison Ant that she has seen.
However, all the Soul Eater Ants had been summoned back to the catacombs by the Soul Eater Ant Queen.
How could it be that he had traveled thousands of miles to the Imperial City?
And even if the Soul Eater Ant came to the Imperial City, why didn't there be an outbreak of plague in the villages and cities that passed through the Northwest Region to the Imperial City?
Why did you come to the Imperial City to appear?
Is there anything in the Imperial City that the city and village along the way do not have?
Thinking of this, Yanyu felt that she couldn't tell the reason from the corpse anymore, so she began to carefully inspect the trees in the central garden and whether there was anything special underground.
So the smoke and rain kept walking deeper into the central garden, and whenever I saw a particularly strange and stout tree, I would deliberately approach it to take a good look.
Finally, Yanyu saw a very strange big tree.
The tree is not very tall, about five feet tall. But the waist is very thick, as if there is a platform on it.
At that moment, the smoke and rain seemed to faintly hear a piano sound coming from the platform of this tree.
So, the curious Yanyu glanced back at the location of the general, confirmed that no one was paying attention to her, and flew to the platform of the tree.
On the platform of the tree, Yanyu saw a large tree hole. I could faintly feel a trace of cold air blowing out of the hole.
It was as if the tree hole led to the underground, so Yanyu walked curiously towards the tree hole.
When he came to the door of the tree cave, Yanyu found that there was a seal at the entrance of the cave, which was obviously not something that could be entered casually.
Fortunately, the goddess mask of Yanyu was too powerful, and she quickly analyzed the origin of the light film and the way it existed.
So Yanyu quickly knew the way to crack this layer of light film, and after consuming some of his own blood, he successfully removed the light film.
At the moment when the light film disappeared, Yanyu decisively jumped in, and then floated down.
While floating, looking at both sides, looking at it, Yanyu suddenly discovered a problem, that is, there is a diametrically opposite world under the ground of this central garden!
In that underground world, everything was extremely dark, very different from the sunny central garden on the ground at the moment.
And in this world, Yanyu found that there are things that exist in the real world outside, and there are also here, but they are diametrically opposed.
Even the people inside are in it.
It's just that the people in this underground world look like real monsters, not in disguise with masks.
Yanyu recalled a little, the people he had seen on the way from the ground just now, they were dressed as monsters, and they seemed to be found in this underground world.
Even when Yanyu inadvertently turned around and saw that there was a person exactly like her following her, she was surprised!
At that moment, Yanyu knew that this underground world was not such a simple world.
