To the north of the city of São Paulo there is a cemetery called the Tomb of the God of War.
Why is it called the Necropolis? That's because the area is just too big.
The people of São Paulo know almost everyone about this cemetery, and it is also known as the forbidden place by the locals.
However, the entire Necropolis is so vast that it is equivalent to a small town.
Tens of thousands of tombstones stand on the plain, densely packed, giving people a strong visual impact.
However, if you think that tens of thousands of people are buried here, you are very wrong.
In fact, in the entire cemetery, not even a single person has been buried.
In the middle of the plain of nearly 100 square kilometers, there is a dilapidated log cabin, in which lives an old man named Elken, who is 90 years old this year.
Elkem is the grave keeper of the Graveyard of the God of War, where he has lived for more than sixty years.
He only does one thing every day, and that is to repair the tomb.
What is tomb repair?
It's about building tombstones.
All the tombstones in the entire Tomb of the God of War were built by him.
In other words, the tens of thousands of tombstones here have been built by him for more than 60 years.
Elkem would visit the city once a month for the sole purpose of collecting food and drinking water from the city's government.
Once upon a time, every time Elkem entered the city, he would be welcomed by many people, and the government would give him a lot of food.
But with the passage of time, the replacement of the thoughts and memories of several generations, many people no longer know him.
Even every time he entered the city, there would be a lot of people laughing at him.
Some say he's insane, some say he's crazy, and some say he's a beggar.
Even over the years, every time the government workers gave him food, some of it was expired, and the amount was much lower than before.
However, Elkem never had any opinion on this, he just wanted to do his own thing, which was to protect the Tomb of the God of War.
……
When Ning Qiu saw this tomb city, he was extremely shocked.
"Such a large cemetery, is it going to be a cemetery for the whole city?"
At this time, an old man who was bent over straightened up and said, "In this cemetery, only one person will be buried." ”
Ning Qiu and the others were suddenly startled, it turned out that the grave keeper Aiken was next to a tombstone not far from them, but they didn't find it at all.
"But we've heard that all the tombstones here are empty." Ning Qiu said.
The story of the Tomb of the God of War has always been a joke in the city of São Paulo, so it's easy to find out.
Elkem wiped the sweat from his head, and after a long time, he said, "The slate will not be given to you, so you can go." ”
Two days ago, Yin Jie and Jiang Ling had already come to this place and directly inquired about the Soul Stone Slab from Elkem.
And Elkem told them that he did have a tablet of soul books in his hand, right in the middle of the necropolis, resting under the main tomb.
Jiang Ling made many conditions at that time, hoping to exchange for the soul book slate, but Elkem never agreed.
Later, after the talks collapsed, Jiang Ling and Yin Jie were ready to rob it, but found that they couldn't beat this old man at all.
However, Elken showed mercy and did not hurt them, but drove them out of the tomb.
Ning Qiu came here today, not to fight with this old man, but to negotiate.
However, with Elkem's pure heart and few desires, it is useless to let them talk about it.
Ning Qiu told him that they already had six soul book tablets in their hands, and they were only the last one left here by Elken.
But Elkem said: "I don't know what the tablet is, in fact, it is not mine, I am only keeping it for someone else." So, without that person's permission, I won't give it to you. ”
The corners of Ning Qiu's mouth twitched, thinking to himself that you are over ninety years old, and you still keep things for others?
He was very suspicious that the man whom Elkem was talking about would have died long ago.
"Is your old man here to guard that slate?" Ning Qiu suddenly asked.
When Elkem heard this, he thought for a few minutes before he spoke, "You can say the same. ”
More than 60 years like a day, just to protect this slate?
This can't help but make people wonder, who was the person who gave the slate to Elkem in the first place?
In the center of the cemetery is a very large statue, about ten meters high, with only half a body, that connects to the tombstone below. From a distance, it gives a lifelike feeling.
Ning Qiu and the others thought that perhaps the person Aiken was talking about was the person who was in this statue.
Elkem walked over and took out a black slate from the tombstone.
Ning Qiu and the others' eyes lit up, isn't this the soul book slate?
Originally, I thought that the old man had figured it out and was going to hand it over to them, but Aikem put it directly into his coat, "I'm going to go into the city, you can do it yourself." ”
“……”
There was no food or water left in the dilapidated cabins, and Elkem had to go into the city and ask for food and water from the local authorities.
Yin Jie turned his head to look at Ning Qiu and whispered in his ear, "If you grab it now, it's the best time." ”
But Ning Qiu shook his head and said, "But it's not the best choice. ”
"Why?"
"It's very simple, because the four of us join forces, and we may not be his opponents. Four fights one, and the other party is still an old man, and if he loses, it will be very embarrassing. Ning Qiu said.
Yin Jie was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself, right? Anyway, the four of them are all high-level awakened people, and their strength is not ordinary, and they can't beat this old man together?
No one knows what this old man's strength is? But subconsciously told Ning Qiu that this old man was very strong, not to mention that the four of them joined forces, even if there were four more people, they might not be able to beat him.
He suspected that Elkem was most likely a Holy Soul-level powerhouse.
"Nima! This North America is really full of monsters. ”
So, Ning Qiu simply walked up and went to the city of São Paulo with Elkem.
"Don't you feel bored living alone in the Tomb City for more than sixty years?" Since the hard one didn't work, Ning Qiu decided to try the soft one.
"As long as people have a goal, they don't feel bored. Hehehe, but to be honest, sometimes I feel really stuffy, but I'm used to it. "Elkem rarely spoke to people, not because he was silent, but because no one spoke and no one wanted to talk to him.
"Shall I tell you a story?"
"Hehe, okay."
So, Ning Qiu actually told the story to the old man.
"Legend ...... 200 years ago"
Yin Jie and the other three followed behind, very speechless.
However, they found that the story of Ning Qiu's general was actually a certain legend of the Huaxia Kingdom about the Soul Book Slate.
Of course, there are many legends about the Soul Book Slate, and what he is talking about is only one of them.
Why this version?
The reason is simple, the story is more engaging.
However, Elkem laughed at it.
Ning Qiu was also speechless, thinking that this version of the story was so exciting, with ups and downs, it could even be said to be creepy, your old man was still hehe. Oh, your sister, where is the laugh?
