Chapter 463: Buried in the Sand (2)
Facing the realization of death again, the tears in Zhu Beichen's eyes were dripping and mixed in the water, and he couldn't tell whether it was the surrounding water or tears, and the salty taste went straight down from his throat to his viscera, I hope this time he really faced death completely, he felt that it was really tiring to live.
The appearance of the ancient city is often unexpected, the subconscious seems to be hypnotized by the city, the invisible hand of death is beckoning to them, and the people who have seen the extraordinary ancient city are powerless to resist this call, and even give up the idea of continuing to live.
The only person who tried to resist the influence of the ancient city was Qijian, and he was still trying to keep his mind clear, but the heavy drowsiness suppressed wave after wave, and he sank to the bottom several times, but the warm water could not make him sober, and gradually his consciousness also entered a state of confusion. He remembered his family in southern Yunnan, still waiting for his wife and children to return at home, including various experiences when he was learning the Tao, and repeated a sentence in his mouth before closing his eyes: "Why is it like this?"
Who would have imagined that the sand-buried ancient city was a huge trap designed by the predecessors, trying every possible way to seek the entrance to the ancient city, but in the end it was a void. A group of people who witnessed the true appearance of the ancient city did not know whether it was luck or misfortune, and they could witness the unparalleled building in the world with their own eyes, but in the next moment, they would completely pass away.
Seven rooms are silently reciting the mantra of death for themselves, and at the same time, they are also praying for the blessings of their wives, sons and daughters in the bottom of their hearts.
In a trance, layers of white light filled everyone's consciousness, they did not feel the existence of their bodies, and they were like empty shells that had lost their weight, swaying and floating in the clouds.
Spirits wandered over the ancient city, and at their feet was the huge city full of glass, and they could even see themselves soaking in the water below the city. There was no panic or fear, and he looked at his former body with an indifferent and indifferent expression.
This may be the world after death, quiet, without contention and desire.
……
Silent for many years, unknown ignorance through the years of the world, quiet environment, faint moonlight through the treetops, bright silver moonlight poured on the transparent road, dotted with blue light dots insects flying around the overhead, the scenery is pleasant.
The body gradually became conscious, and the rest of his life after the catastrophe was more like going through a process of reincarnation, and the air touched by the skin seemed to have become different.
Opening his eyes in confusion, Zhu Beichen was a little puzzled where he was, there was no life around, he was in a courtyard, and he was still wearing the clothes that had been soaked in the water before, but fortunately, the clothes that were dyed in the water were dry now, and they still had a good smell.
There was a faint pain in his chest, and when he opened his clothes, he saw that his chest was red and swollen, and he remembered that it should be because he had hit a boulder in the water before.
But where is this place, and where are you now? A few meters away, Zhu Beichen saw the sleeping fat man, and suddenly saw a familiar person in a strange place, and it was inevitable that he felt kind, and the fat man seemed to have signs of waking up. I can't care so much, now that Qiyue, Qijian and others are gone, let's wake up the fat man first and see the situation.
Fatso? shouted a few times in a row, looking at the posture, he should be able to hear it, and Zhu Beichen, who was sore all over, could barely sit up.
The courtyard is surrounded by a two-meter-high courtyard wall, and behind it is a house with a closed gate, and the shape of the house is like never before. An unknown tree is planted in the courtyard, and the branches of the treetops with a shimmering glaze grow extremely green leaves, and the green leaves of the jewel-like halo make this tree full of jewels. The owner's house in the courtyard did not know where to go, and the place was desolate and quiet.
Estimating that the fat man would have a while before he woke up, Zhu Beichen, who was not clear about the situation, decided to get up and take a look. First, he came to the eye-catching tree, cringed and touched the trunk, and his heart was terrified when he touched it. It is completely different from the trees planted in the general courtyard, the cold touch to the touch, the smooth bark brings more like touching a layer of glass, and probing the leaves in the low place, the leaf material of this tree is closer to jadeite, in short, this tree is indeed unusual, it should be a handicraft, made of jadeite craft treasures.
But such a rare and rare thing is planted in the courtyard, Zhu Beichen has to doubt his situation, he clearly remembers that before falling into a coma, he was in the tide of the ocean, and the mysterious ancient city was hovering overhead, and the memory seemed to have lasted for thousands of years, and he had already appeared here when he woke up.
Could it be that he did not die, but entered the interior of the ancient city in some unknown form or way? And is this the ancient city buried in the sand?
For a while, the information in my mind was mixed together, and my head was about to burst. Yes, what about July, where did all of them go, did they also come to the ancient city like themselves?
The fat man's fingers moved twice, and the lying body was regaining consciousness, and he sat up after a while, his eyes were still blank, and he seemed to be confused about where he was like Zhu Beichen before. Obviously I feel that I am dead, and the feeling of my soul leaving my body is very similar to the description of many people who have experienced death, but now that I am alive, everything around me has changed.
Ahem, the fat man coughed twice, and looked around like Zhu Beichen, and finally found Zhu Beichen standing in the courtyard looking at himself.
"What's going on, are we all okay? Where is this? He cleared his throat and shook his head with a smile, wondering whether to be glad he was alive or thinking about something else.
"Yes, they're all alive." The tone was much more indifferent, Zhu Beichen stared at the fat man and nodded slightly.
"I just don't know where everyone else has gone, we seem to be in a compound."
"The ancient city is buried in the sand, why are we here?" The fat man's eyes were full of incredulity, except for the explanation of being in the ancient city, he could not think of such a building anywhere else, and in terms of architectural style, it was similar to the buildings they had seen outside the city.
"Who knows." Zhu Beichen himself wasn't sure if he was in the ancient city, touching the jade tree with one hand, thinking that the fat man knew the material of the tree, I am afraid that greed has risen again.
His lips turned up slightly, a weird smile was slightly revealed, and the fat man was very sure: "It must be in the ancient city, the sand buries the ancient city, we finally came in." "It's been a lot of hard work to finally get here.
"Can you still stand up? We walked around and I always thought it was weird, so let's look for other people, they should be here too. Zhu Beichen said.
