"There is Luo Yu Mountain, in the north of the Guidi, 30,000 li in circumference, 2,600 miles high, six palaces in Dongtian, 10,000 miles on Monday, 2,600 miles high, built the capital of Xudu, is the palace of ghosts and gods in the six heavens...... Death is in it. ”

This is the earliest source recorded in the only documents of the city, but it is impossible to determine why the city was called the city.

The geographical environment of the whole Luo Yu Mountain is very similar to the destination they arrived at for the first time after going down the mountain - the smell of the Forest of Beasts, as far as the eye can see, there are all dense forests dyed by layers, the trunks are thick and straight, like a Roman column, an adult can only barely hold on to it with open arms, the canopy is tall and dense, almost covering most of the sun, even at noon, there are only fragments of light sprinkled from between the leaves, and occasionally when a gust of wind blows, The sparse spots of light will staggeringly brush a meager sense of presence in the eyes of passers-by.

Unlike the Forest of Beasts, although the Forest of Beasts looks like a tropical rainforest, you can at least see some small wildflowers, white, blue, and yellow, decorating the beauty of nature in a piece of green.

The whole mountain starts from the foot of the mountain, and most of the green plants covered are evergreen pines and cypresses, such as whitebark pine, Huashan pine, black pine, spruce, etc., as well as green plants such as big-leaved privet, dragon cypress, camphor, no matter which one it is, these trees have a common feature, that is, they can't see their flowers.

This caused the entire Luo Yu Mountain to look green from a distance, and the deep and light shades of green overflowed the eyes, which made a few of them and a few horses the only different color on the mountain.

On the winding and neat mountain road, Wen Su led the horse, and as he walked, he looked up at the lush, verdant and tall trees around him. They said that they would go to Xudu, but they unexpectedly found that Xudu City is different from other cities, other towns are either by the mountains or by the water, this guy is amazing, especially a strange thing built directly in the forest!

I really don't know what the planners of the capital city were thinking at the beginning? So mysteriously hiding a city in the mountains and forests, it's not even convenient to travel, and it's a little isolated from the world, what is he trying to do?

"Maybe people don't want anything? He just likes to stay in this kind of place where birds don't lay eggs, where transportation is basically by walking, communication is basically by roaring, you know, there are always some people who have one or two quirks that people can't understand. ”

No! She doesn't understand!

The corners of Wen Su's mouth twitched as she looked at Qu Qingran in front of her, shrugged her shoulders, and raised an index finger and shook it, that serious nonsense face almost made her lose control and smashed the horsewhip in her hand towards the other party's flowery little face.

Qu Qingran faced Wen Su and walked backwards on the mountain road, as if she was not worried about bumping into anyone at all, Wen Su said that she understood very much, from the time they went up the mountain to the present, if it weren't for the occasional birdsong, she would have wondered if Luo Yu Mountain was the only one of them who could pant for breath.

"Susu, what are you looking at? Always looking up. ”

Qu Qingran asked, and she also raised her head to look, but she didn't see anything except a large dense canopy.

"I'm just wondering if the sun won't be visible at all when I arrive in the city."

Wen Su's beautiful eyes drooped, and this seemingly exaggerated joke was actually a true portrayal of her heart.

She had read a lot of Xianxia romance texts in her previous life, as long as the word "Xudu" was involved, all the descriptions made the Xudu demonic like a strange place comparable to the existence of the underworld, if you insist on finding a place to compare, it is probably the same as the demon world is a ghost place.

But in fact, Xudu is also a town for ordinary people to live, although it is not a "ghost town" that never sees the light of day as described in the book, but it is obvious that in this world, Xudu is obviously not a good place to go.

For example, today, it is obviously a sunny day, the autumn tigers are still raging, they arrived at the foot of Luo Yu Mountain around noon, at that time Wen Su still felt that the temperature was a little hot, but as soon as he entered Luo Yu Mountain, the temperature immediately cooled a lot, at that time Wen Su was only because of the relationship of vegetation cover, after all, the denser the mountain forest, the better it is a good place to escape the heat.

But the farther she went up the mountain, the more she felt cool, and the cool feeling was very comfortable, but ...... I always feel that there is some weird cold entanglement, starting from the soles of my feet and burrowing into my body.

That strange subtlety immediately sounded the vigilance in her body, and Wen Su subconsciously began to observe the surrounding environment - the five elements of spiritual energy floated in the air, and there was no pollution, the surroundings were quiet, only the sound of the wind rustling through the leaves, and occasionally a few birdsongs, it can be said that in addition to being too quiet, there is nothing surprising about Luo Yu Mountain.

If there is anything that makes people feel inappropriate, it is probably that the further you go into the mountains, the more lush the vegetation becomes, and you can still see some spots of light cast by the sun, but now you are getting older and fewer, and now when you look up, in addition to the dense foliage, there are only more and more dense clouds looming between the branches.

"I don't think I can see it."

Xun Yi stared intently at the endless mountain road winding into the deeper distance, and an unknown cold light flashed in his eyes.

Because of the body of Taiyin, he can be keenly aware of the unusually cold breath in the mountains like Wen Su, which is not because of the coolness brought by the lush vegetation, but the feeling that this coolness brings him is more accurately described, it is the prelude to the yin qi.

"Don't you see that the clouds are getting thicker? If it weren't for the lack of dampness, the black clouds would have been a sign of rain, but not here. ”

Xun Yi's words immediately attracted the attention of Qing Ziye and the others, because they didn't feel in danger, they didn't care about the details of these environmental changes, even Qing Ziye, who had the most experience in traveling down the mountain, was the first time to come back to the capital, and several people invariably raised their heads to look at the sky where the clouds were getting thicker and thicker, and the coolness that they had not noticed gradually became clear.

At this time, Lonely Shuhan, who was walking beside Xun Yi, couldn't help laughing, he narrowed his phoenix eyes, looked at everyone with a smile on the corner of his lips and said, "Poof~ I said that you little ghosts, don't you do your homework on the destination first when you go out?" ”

He raised his long eyebrows, the corners of his lips hooked, and the slight curvature made his handsome facial features look yuppie and yuppie yuppies.

"The place you are going to, but the capital is called the 'ghost town', don't you think that this name is called for nothing?"

Wen Su had never been to Xudu before, and the only weak knowledge she had could only make her ask with confidence: "Didn't you say that Xudu is the closest town to the outskirts of the ghost world?" The ghost door of the Midyear Festival is wide open, the yin qi is prosperous, among which the capital is the heaviest, around the middle of July, the entire capital city will not be open to the public. ”

I still heard her senior brother in the hanging garden say it, but because he had a mission at the time, he was just passing by Luo Yu Mountain back then, and he didn't know where he heard a basket of ghost stories, specially collected and brought back to scare their group of senior brothers and sisters, and one of them talked about this matter.

Shan Shuhan nodded and said, "That's right, since you all know, then what are you all wondering about?" You don't think that the capital is the same as other places, it's all full of flowers, right? ”

Although he himself has not been to Xudu City for a long time, he clearly knows that it is absolutely impossible for Xudu to become more and more vivid like other cities, even if there are still people living here, but living in such an environment every day, no matter how normal people will eventually become abnormal.

On the other hand, Qu Qingran on the side was a little unaccustomed to Lonely's cold appearance, and asked him angrily: "Do you seem to know very well?" Been here before? ”

Originally, she just asked casually, but who would have thought that Lonely Shuhan replied with a smile: "I did come many years ago." ”

It's a very distant story.

As if thinking of someone, Lonely Han's originally ruffian face suddenly revealed a faint nostalgia, although it was not obvious, but it was still noticed by Qu Qingran.

So a girl who suddenly knocked over the vinegar altar started the cliché mode without smiling-

"So this time it's a revisit, right? Tell me, what do you remember about drunkenness? ”

Although Qu Qingran had a smile on her eyebrows and eyes, she had an expression of interest in Xu, but the unpleasant aura emanating from her body even felt Wen Su.
