Chapter 20 Temples

Gu Li's apparent age is sixteen years old, close to seventeen years old, and it has been more than four years since he came to this world.

As for why it is not sixteen years, it is mainly because Gu Li's body became twelve years old after coming to this world, and he did not start directly from a young child.

Before he stayed in this world for half a day, he was taken back by Qing Yuanzi and worshiped his master.

After a few years, the impression of this world is that of ancient society.

But the little girl in front of him suddenly told him that she was from modern society!

"Gu Li, why is your face so red?"

"Maybe it's too hot."

Lin Sihan felt the cold wind blowing in autumn, and couldn't help shrinking his body, put his little hand around Gu Li's neck and said, "What I just said..."

"Okay, I'll go home with you!" Gu Li turned his head to Lin Sihan with the brightest smile so far, and said with excitement.

Looking at Gu Li strangely, Lin Sihan frowned and said, "Didn't you say before that you would only send me home and then go and do your own thing?" ”

"yes, I'll take a look around after I send you home." Nodding slightly, Gu Li's body trembled slightly when he thought that he might still be able to see his sister Gu Yang when he returned to modern society.

He completely forgot that it was a strange world.

Although Lin Sihan is not very old, the environment she has experienced has taught her to think independently.

She knew that Gu Li's change of mind so quickly was definitely not due to her own reasons.

Think about it...

It seems to have started with saying that to yourself?

"Gu Li, are you also from the Great Qian Empire like me?"

The light voice in his ears made Gu Li stop, and he turned his head in surprise and said, "Great Qian Empire? ”

"Hmm." Lin Sihan saw Gu Li's expression as if he was fake, and said seriously: "I'm from the Great Qian Empire, what about you?" ”

“...”

As if a basin of cold water poured down and extinguished all his enthusiasm, Gu Li looked at Lin Sihan with a stiff face, and said after a long time: "I'm from Pu City..."

Pu City?

Hearing Gu Li's words, Lin Sihan was stunned for the first time.

Does the Great Qian Empire have this city?

After carefully thinking about the map of his country, Lin Sihan shook his head and said: "The Great Qian Empire does not have this city, are you from other empires?" Or the people of the Alliance? ”

Lin Sihan's words seemed to confirm his thoughts, Gu Li's mood slowly regained his calm, and he said calmly: "Maybe..."

may have noticed that Gu Li's mood was not very high, and Lin Sihan asked some questions every few minutes along the way.

But Gu Li nodded occasionally and said a few words occasionally, but most of the time he was silent listening to Lin Sihan.

"There are four empires in the world, namely Daqian, Tianhai, Ayelu, and Xueyu, and of course there are many small countries around, but a long time ago they united to form an alliance and called it the Fifth Empire, but the four empires have never recognized it."

"And the vast area where you lived as a child is called the Land of Exile, because the people here are very resistant to the Empire's solicitation..."

"Very few people from the empire will come to this place, because it is not only poor, but also backward and superstitious, even if our country wants to improve the situation here, it will be rejected by the people here without hesitation, and even those people use wooden sticks as weapons..."

"Over time, the people of the four empires have abandoned this place and have joined forces to build a long high wall in the border area."

...

Gu Li listened to Lin Sihan's words silently, he knew that she was explaining to him, wanting him to understand what the structure of modern society looked like.

In the past, she wouldn't say a few words all day, but now she seems to have turned on the chatter mode, chattering in Gu Li's ear.

Gu Li didn't interrupt her, but listened patiently, jotting down the most basic knowledge, hoping to use it in the future.

"Gu Li, I'm thirsty." The twelve-year-old girl had been talking for so long, her throat had already dried up, but seeing that the nerd in front of her didn't move at all, Lin Sihan flashed a trace of annoyance, and patted him on the shoulder and said.

One hand took out the gourd from the cloth bag, shook it gently, and said, "It seems that we need to prepare a little water." ”

Unceremoniously took the gourd, opened the mouth and drank a few sips carefully to quench his thirst, Lin Sihan looked at the dusk sky and said, "It's getting dark." ”

"Well, we'll have to find out if there's a place to live nearby."

Nodding slightly, Gu Li's expression suddenly moved, and after raising his eyebrows, he said, "We may have a place to live." ”

"The last time you said that, we went to live in a tree hole." Glancing at Gu Li angrily, Lin Sihan seemed to have thought of something, and his little body shook and whispered, "Did those things appear again?" ”

"You weren't that scared back then." After Gu Li turned his head slightly and said something to her, he frowned and looked into the distance and said, "It's a strange feeling, let's go over and have a look, but it shouldn't be those corpses." ”

"At the end of the day, I'm still a twelve-year-old girl, and it's impossible not to be afraid." Lin Sihan said calmly as if he wasn't talking about her.

"Do you know you're twelve?"

"Gu Li, why did you become so verbose?"

"Did I say anything?"

...

After walking for ten minutes, I found a temple at the end of the night, covering an area of about fifty square meters, surrounded by walls more than three meters high, which seemed deep and silent in the last twilight light.

"Gu Li, this is the place you are talking about?" Lin Sihan moved a little closer to Gu Li, looked at the temple in front of him and said.

"Well, you put this in your pocket, and we'll go in and have a look." After handing a high-level guardian talisman to Lin Sihan, looking up at the sky gradually darkening, Gu Li took her little hand and opened the temple door and walked in.

The inside of the temple appears to be empty, there is a large open space, and inside it is a small temple, but in the center of the small temple is a large coffin, and in front of the coffin there is some soot.

Looking at the ashes, Gu Li's eyes flickered slightly, he took out two sticks of incense from the cloth bag, lit them, handed them to Lin Sihan and said, "Let's go visit the master here." ”

"Don't be afraid, I'm here."

Reaching out to take the incense, Lin Sihan nodded lightly, his little face was full of calm, but his little hand clenched Gu Li's hand.

Feeling the actions of the little girl beside him, Gu Li smiled and walked in front as if nothing was there.

The surroundings were silent, and the silence was terrible.

After Gu Li took Lin Sihan to the big coffin, he inserted the incense stick in his hand on the wood.

Seeing his actions, Lin Sihan did the same, and also inserted it into it, and then stood beside Gu Li and bit his little lip without speaking.

"We're passing through here, and we'd like to spend the night here, hoping to make it easier."

boom

The coffin board made a soft knocking sound, and Lin Sihan almost screamed in shock.
