Chapter VII: The Imperial City
As soon as Du Hongcheng's words came out, several other people looked at each other, "For this city, heaven and earth are in a formation of their own? So what happened here? Let heaven and earth also help cover up." Du Hongcheng shook his head, he didn't know either. Then he asked, "Do you feel any sorrow?" Several other people have unfolded their meta-consciousness and felt it carefully. After a while, they all shook their heads. Du Hongcheng let go of his senses, he clearly felt the sadness of this city, and it seemed that this sadness still had a source. Unfortunately, the Divine Sense is also limited here, and the range that can be searched is less than half of what it normally is.
"I seem to have a feeling that if we can find the source of our sorrow, maybe we can leave. Du Hongcheng said. "Let's go find the source of that sorrow first. "The others have no objections, anyway, instead of wandering around here, it is better to find a direction to explore.
A few people walked out of the hotel, and the skeletons on the street were still walking around, and what made Du Hongcheng and the others unbearable was that they saw some small skeletons that were still very short. "I really don't know what happened at that time, even such a young child died", Du Hongcheng sighed, "I hope such a terrible thing will not happen in my game world." Du Hongcheng and the others walked all the way, and from time to time they touched the skeleton. There is no way, almost all the whole city is skeletons, and they are walking, if they don't want to run into each other, how can it be! The other four people followed Du Hongcheng and kept getting closer to the source of the sadness.
A few people walked and marveled at the beauty of this ancient city, which is slightly rectangular, surrounded by city walls, set up city gates on all sides, crisscrossed by streets in the city, and the layout of the neighborhood is like a chessboard. Important buildings surround the municipal square, including temples, assembly halls, baths, shopping malls, etc., as well as theaters, gymnasiums, colosseums, aqueducts and other necessary facilities for municipal buildings. There are many workshops and shops, all set up in neighborhoods according to trades, along with a large number of residential houses on both sides of the road. Such a reasonable layout may only appear during the period of the Da Nao Empire, Du Hongcheng sighed.
Walking along the street, it was a small city in front of Du Hongcheng and a few people, a city within a city? Du Hongcheng looked at the name of the city above: Imperial City! Du Hongcheng said to a few people around him: "I don't know what will happen when I enter the city, take care." Although the other four were silent, their eyes had already revealed determination.
Du Hongcheng was in front, and the other four people were around him, and Du Hongcheng stepped forward and nudged the door. Boom! The door that had been sealed for an unknown amount of time slowly opened under the impetus of Du Hongcheng.
What caught Du Hongcheng's eyes was not the dry bones on the ground, nor the gray and oppressive sky, but the blue sky and white clouds, and the green garden, with classical colonnades and marble statues in the garden, Du Hongcheng and the others walked carefully inside. Walk through the garden to the main house, which is surrounded by a central patio with a hall and a frescoed corridor. This imperial city is like a paradise in the eyes of Du Hongcheng and others. Walking inside, passing through several corridors, Du Hongcheng and the others finally arrived at the source of the sadness.
This is a room with a closed door, and the text on it Du Hongcheng's consciousness is swept but he can't get any information, which makes their vigilance even stronger, and the most alarming thing for them is that there are two people at the door of this room, at least people with intact bodies and not corpses. Since coming to this city, Du Hongcheng and the others saw human beings for the first time, and several people stepped forward cautiously, for the sake of caution, Du Hongcheng did not dare to go up and open the door of the room in person, but released a yuan force. The Yuan Li, which was as thin as a gossamer, flew straight towards the door, but at this time, these two people moved, they tapped their swords respectively, and the sword qi stirred and directly scattered the Yuan Force sent out by Du Hongcheng.
This...... Several people looked at each other, judging from this reaction, these two people should be classified as puppets, how strong is the strength of this puppet? Du Hongcheng and the others did not want to try. So, Du Hongcheng played another mana, but the result was the same, in the end Du Hongcheng released his divine power, this is already their last hope, if they are still attacked, then only five people will attack this puppet" Du Hongcheng's divine power fluttered towards the door, when he was about to arrive at the door, the other four people looked nervously, Du Hongcheng was also nervous, bang! The door opened! Sure enough, it is the ancient power of divine power that is useful, Du Hongcheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, the divine power was not invented by the Du family, according to the record in the "Da Nao Chronicle", this was obtained by a generation of emperors by chance.
Du Hongcheng summoned the divine power and attached it to himself, and stepped into the house alone, because the other people did not have divine power, so Du Hongcheng could not help them enter.
Covering the divine power around his body, the mana in his body has already worked, Du Hongcheng walked into this room with one foot deep and one foot shallow, approaching here, the sadness disappeared, Du Hongcheng felt that he seemed to be about to come into contact with the secret behind this ancient city.
The room was empty, except for a mural on the wall, and only a mirror remained. Judging from some traces here, there should have been a lot of ornaments here before, but most of them have weathered over time. From the scene in front of him, Du Hongcheng didn't feel the sadness. Could it be that there are details that he didn't notice? Du Hongcheng let go of his divine sense and carefully inspected every corner of this place. However, the result still disappointed him. Could it be that it has something to do with this mural? Du Hongcheng looked at the mural, which depicted a woman, although the mural was blurred, Du Hongcheng could still vaguely judge the beauty of this woman. Du Hongcheng stretched out his hand and gently stroked the mural, and he felt the roughness of the stone. Nothing else. There was only a mirror left, Du Hongcheng walked in front of the mirror, his image appeared in the mirror, Du Hongcheng sorted out his clothes with satisfaction, and with the transformation of his body by cultivation, his temperament became more and more extraordinary. A sense of calm arose.
Looking at this mirror is no different, Du Hongcheng looked at it several times, and his divine power checked back and forth on it, but after all, he didn't find any clues. However, at this time, Du Hongcheng noticed a detail, the position of the mural and the mirror! The position of the woman's eyes in the mural and the eyes of the person looking in the mirror are always parallel, or relative. Du Hongcheng walked back to the mural, he attached his divine power to his hand and gently touched the eyes of the girl on the mural, but there was no response! Du Hongcheng put the divine power directly on the eyes of the mural, and it was done! Du Hongcheng felt a devouring force, his divine power was constantly devoured, and after extracting about thirty percent of himself, the mural showed a vivid color, shooting two rays of light from the eyes of the girl in the painting, and the target was pointed directly at the mirror, Du Hongcheng hurriedly ran over, and the light on the mural shot into the mirror Du Hongcheng's mirrored eyes. Du Hongcheng was surprised to find that the scene of the whole room had completely changed!
The noble red carpet is spread on the ground, a large floor-to-ceiling window appeared in the room that was originally surrounded by walls, two begonia flowers are placed by the window, looking at the mural, the girl on the picture emerges completely, Du Hongcheng is fascinated for a while, several quaint hanging lamps are hung on the wall, hanging on both sides of the mural, there is a wardrobe next to the mirror, Du Hongcheng carefully identifies, these hanging lamps and wardrobes are worth nothing, the lamp holder of the hanging lamp is white marble, the bulb is made of agate, and the wardrobe is carved from golden silk nanmu. In this room, in addition to these, what surprised Du Hongcheng the most was the big bed in the center of the room, and on this bed lay the girl on the mural. For this woman, Du Hongcheng commented like this: What caught his eye was a woman who was still pretty without powder, the woman was wearing a floral dress, and her slender hair fell down her shoulders. Under the slender willow eyebrows, the big eyes are bright, the nose is straight, and the thin lips are gently upturned, with a touch of youth and vigor. The lotus root arm and jade legs are slender, and the waist that is unbearable is even more reverie. Pale and pale, she lay on this crystal bed like a resting angel. Du Hongcheng exclaimed, this is simply a masterpiece of God!
