"Qu Shangcheng, how could it appear underground here? Normally, the capital of a country symbolizes authority and sacredness, even if it is a barbarian in the southwest, it is impossible to build its capital underground! Wang Yifeng took a few steps forward and muttered to himself in confusion.

"Who knows? There are few records about the ancient Shu Kingdom in the history books, and there are only a few mentions of Qu Shangcheng. In any case, the city in front of us cannot be faked. Cai Zhongtang also followed and responded.

As the crowd spoke, I reached out and pulled out the sword on my back and stepped forward, looking around with a wary expression. can make Cai Zhongyong become like that, this place is by no means simple.

"Chen Zixuan, don't act indiscriminately." Cai Yawen followed behind me and complained.

"It doesn't matter."

I responded, and at the same time used the Hope Qi Technique to look ahead, the world in my eyes instantly turned into a gloom, the stone houses in front of me were wrapped in mist, and the majestic and tall palace in the distance seemed to have turned into a death underworld, eerie and terrifying.

At this moment, there was a mournful cry in my ears that seemed to come from the Nine Shadows, the voices were male or female, old or young, they cried and wailed, terrifying.

"This ......"

I was taken aback, and when I dispersed the Qi Look, the surroundings returned to normal, and the nightmare sound was no longer there.

It's really weird!

I didn't tell anyone else about this discovery, but I was secretly on guard. The sound just now was more like the wailing of a resentful ghost, and with the yin aura that enveloped the stone houses and palaces, this place was by no means a good place.

The group stepped forward cautiously and entered the streets of the city, the pavement under their feet was paved with stone slabs, and for some reason, the stone slabs under their feet were still smooth and hard after thousands of years, and there was no sign of corrosion.

"Shall we go directly to the palace in the middle? If there are any secrets in this place, I'm afraid they will be hidden in it! Liu Zelong suddenly pointed to the towering palaces in the distance and said, his thoughts were no different from most people's.

But Cai Zhongtang shook his head and said, "This place is too weird to act rashly. If this is really the royal city of the ancient Shu Kingdom, then the ground should not be so clean, you look around carefully, although the appearance of each stone house is a little different, but the shape is exactly the same. There weren't even human scratches or fumes on it, and there were ......"

I was suddenly terrified, and after Cai Zhongtang's reminder, everyone also discovered the strangeness of this city. You must know that cities and houses are originally places of human activities, not to mention the royal city of a country, not to mention leaving human corpses and the like, but such as scratches on the outside of houses, various residues and wastes discarded by human beings, these should at least exist.

Yet, as we can see, the city is clean and new, except for the dust, as if no one had ever been active.

"Third child, you go to the house over there and investigate, be more careful." Cai Yawen suddenly spoke up and commanded the third child behind her.

The third child opened his mouth and agreed, and greeted another Cai family's subordinate, Zheng Laoqi, and walked towards a stone house on the left. Others were looking around, trying to find any clues.

I felt the tightness in my heart, let Longzhu follow closely behind me, and then set off to walk towards the other room on the right. I'm going to see what's in there.

"Are all the buildings of the ancient Shu Kingdom made of stone?"

I looked at the stone gate and frowned, even more suspicious. You must know that even the barbarians know that doors are made of wood, and no one can easily push open the doors made of stone.

"Master, there are no windows in this room." Longzhu suddenly pulled the corner of my clothes and said.

My eyes lit up, though I was even more worried. But there was no pause in his hands, and he put his hands on the stone door and pushed forward hard.

Chirping......

The harsh grinding sound came, and I slowly pushed open a gap in the stone gate, and suddenly a rancid smell came from the stone door, just like the old jar sauerkraut that had been stored for thousands of years, and the sour and smelly smell almost smoked me so much that I vomited out the overnight meal.

At that moment, a miserable howl came from behind me.

I instinctively looked back, and saw that in the stone door on the left that had just been pushed open by the third child and Zheng Laoqi, a dry hand and claw suddenly stretched out, and the claw was extremely sharp, and it grabbed Zheng Laoqi's arm.

Zheng Laoqi screamed in pain and wanted to struggle, but the claws seemed to have a thousand strengths, Zheng Laoqi seemed to be a chicken caught by an eagle, and was dragged directly into the stone house. The third child next to him was also frightened and screamed, and retreated in fear.

Sou!

There was a sound of breaking wind in my ears, and a claw suddenly came out of the stone door in front of me, which had been pushed open a crack, and it was grabbing at me. But I was wary of it, and I stepped back and avoided it at the last moment.

Because the gap was not large, the contents of the stone door could not be penetrated, except for a dry and skinny claw still dancing in the air, trying to catch me.

"Ahh Longzhu screamed in fright and sat down on the ground.

I can't care about her at the moment. But the evil sword in his hand cut through the space and slashed at the claw, and suddenly there was a crisp sound, and the claw fell to the ground. There was a beast-like roar from inside the stone house, followed by heavy objects pounding against the stone door.

I looked down at the severed claw, black and purple, the same shape as a human hand, but the nails were long, and there was a faint green glow on them.

However, I didn't bother to look closely at this time, turned around and pulled Longzhu and ran quickly to the left.

I saw Cai Yawen and the others all gathered outside the stone house, everyone's face was extremely ugly, but no one dared to go in.

"Mr. Zheng was pulled in." Cai Yawen saw me coming, and hurriedly whispered.

I nodded, I also saw the scene with my own eyes.

Standing outside the stone house, I saw that the stone door of the room had been pushed open by a third, just enough to penetrate a person's body.

"Click...... Hiss ......"

A strange sound came from the stone door, and it felt like someone hiding in a room eating flesh and bones, and sucking blood.

"Damn, Mr. Zheng was eaten by that thing." The third child's face was ugly, and he couldn't help but take a few steps back.

Cai Zhongtang held a peachwood sword in his hand and said to everyone: "There may be zombies in here, everyone be careful, don't be hurt by it." Yawen, you hide in the back, Ah Biao, Ah Hu and the third child, a few of you stand next to me, and when that thing comes out, you will do it together. ”

I watched Cai Zhongtang arrange everything and wait for it. The room was so dark that no one dared to rush in, so they had to wait for the thing to come out of it before destroying it. With my eyes wide open, I saw through the crack in the door with the help of night vision that in the corner of the stone house, a tattered body was lying, and it looked like the corpse of Zheng Laoqi. There was also a thin, humanoid creature lying on his chest. The head of that thing kept moving, disemboweling Zheng Laoyu, tearing out the flesh and internal organs inside, and chewing it heavily.

"Longzhu, you go to Cai Yawen's side."

I whispered a word and walked forward with my sword in hand.

"Chen Zixuan, you're crazy!" Cai Yawen saw that I was going to enter the house, so she hurriedly spoke, and everyone else looked at me incredulously. After all, in their impression, the human body is incomparable to those monsters, and it is easy to be killed by monsters in hand-to-hand combat. Coupled with the small space in the house, it was difficult to escape, and my behavior was almost like going to die on my own initiative.

"Don't worry."

I passed a look to Longzhu and Cai Yawen, and as soon as I moved, I rushed into the stone house, and the evil sword in my hand slashed down at the monster that was eating.

"Roar!"

The monster was startled by me, and jumped off Zheng Laoqi's chest with a leap, dodging the sword, and at the same time roared and pounced on me.

But I had already prepared, and my left hand suddenly stretched out, and the true qi in my body surged out towards the monster.

With a bang, the monster was blown back by me, and half of its claws were blown off. I endured the pain in my left hand and swung my sword forward, and the red light flashed, and the monster's head suddenly fell with a grunt......
