Chapter 270: The Fog of History, the Great Zhou Empire.

"White Emperor City?" Xia Yu looked up at the three big characters on the city gate, and a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes. "Turns out this ghost town has a name. ”

Hearing Xia Yu's words, Zhou Qing turned around and smiled at him, saying, "Yes, there is a name, but everyone agrees that the name [Ghost Town] is more suitable for it." After speaking, Zhou Qing turned his head to look at Su Ying'er on the side, "Senior Sister Su......"

Sun Ying'er smiled sweetly: "Got it, Senior Brother Zhou." She reached out to touch her slender waist, and at this time Xia Yu realized that there was a crystal clear jade lantern hanging from her waist, about the size of her thumb, which was very delicately carved. She took the jade lantern off her belt and threw it forward, and the jade lantern suddenly skyrocketed, becoming the size of an ordinary lantern, and quietly suspended in mid-air, emitting a bright white light, illuminating a large area around it. However, the light of the jade lantern could not completely penetrate the darkness after all, and the distant scene was still hidden in the darkness.

"Thank you, Senior Sister Su. Zhou Qing smiled gently at Su Ying'er, and then turned back to everyone. "Let's go, let's go into town. ”

The three deacons and elders walked in front and entered the city first, while Xia Yu and the others followed closely behind the three. Passing through the tall and dark arched city gate, Xia Yu immediately felt a chill sweeping over his body, the feeling was like falling into ice water, and he couldn't help but shiver with the cold. Except for the three deacons and elders, the rest of them also felt the same chill as Xia Yu.

Zhou Qing held up his fat belly, and jokingly said as he walked: "I feel it, it's a ghost town greeting you." Hahaha. ”

After entering the city gate, a straight and wide street appeared in front of everyone, the ground was neatly paved with large sturdy stone slabs, and on both sides of the road were a patchwork of houses of different heights, but these houses were all immersed in dead silence, and the windows of the houses were all pitch black.

Seeing these houses lined up neatly on both sides of the road like guards, stretching into the darkness in the distance, Xia Yu couldn't help but sigh: "Who built such a majestic city?"

The crowd strolled along the main road. Scattered footsteps echoed through the silent streets. Hear the sigh of Xia Yu. Zhou Qing couldn't help laughing and said: "Actually, Tai Academy has been studying ghost towns for a long time, and judging from some details, the architectural style and urban layout of this city are quite a bit of the shadow of the Great Zhou Empire back then. But what is the truth? Now it is unknown. ”

Speaking of which. Zhou Qing suddenly sighed and continued with pity. "After all, there is almost no blank in the history books about the hundreds of years that the Great Zhou Empire ruled the Central Plains. The Great Zhou Empire we know now is just a few words in some relics, and whether the White Emperor City is the remains of the Great Zhou Empire or not is no longer proven. ”

History books are extremely important for any country, no matter at any time, no matter how the dynasty of the world is replaced, the history books have not been broken, only about the hundreds of years of rule of the Great Zhou Empire, no history books have been handed down, the Great Zhou Dynasty is like evaporating from the long river of history, except for some dilapidated, can not restore its original appearance of the relics, almost nothing left. Therefore, the Great Zhou Empire has always been a mystery in history, it perished extremely quickly, and how it perished is now a matter of opinion. The most traditional theory is that the princes of the Eighth Route raised an army against Zhou, but why they opposed Zhou has never been known.

As soon as Zhou Qing's words were finished, Sun Guangyi suddenly said with a smile: "I heard that the White Emperor City is actually the royal capital of the Great Zhou Empire. ”

"Oh, I've heard this rumor, but it's not true. Zhou Qing said with a smile.

Sun Guangyi continued as he walked: "Although there is no evidence for the statements I have heard, they are flourishing and speak as if they were true. It is said that the reason why the White Emperor City got its name White Emperor was because the founding emperor of the Great Zhou Empire proclaimed himself the White Emperor. I also heard that the reason why the Great Zhou Empire fell so quickly was because the prince of the Great Zhou at that time found a way to become an immortal!"

Everyone stopped in unison, and all looked at Sun Guangyi in surprise, Sun Guangyi was still smiling, and at this time Xia Yu suddenly found that Baili was silently walking at the back of everyone, as always, his face was cold, and he didn't say a word, even if Sun Guangyi said that becoming an immortal, the dream of all monks, he was still indifferent.

"Everyone, I've just heard, why are you all looking at me?" Sun Guangyi spread his hands, looking like he didn't care about himself.

"Cheng Xian?" Xia Yu took a deep breath, lowered his head slightly, and immediately set off a brainstorming in his brain, and calmly analyzed. "Becoming an immortal is what every monk dreams of, and there have been no immortals in the Central Plains for a thousand years. If the prince of Da Zhou really found a way to become an immortal, Da Zhou would definitely become the target of the people of the world, so the rapid demise of Da Zhou would be logical. ”

"If the prince of Great Zhou really found a way to become an immortal, why didn't he become an immortal and destroy the group of thieves who came to commit crimes?" Meng Siqi Bingxue was smart and immediately raised doubts.

Xia Yu pondered for a moment and shook his head: "This ...... There is no way to know, maybe the prince of Da Zhou failed for some reason, or perhaps, before he had time to become an immortal, the country was ruined. ”

As soon as the words fell, Xia Yu's expression suddenly changed, as if he felt something, he raised his head slightly, and sniffed his nose in the air. Because of the meow species, his perception ability has been greatly improved, whether it is smell, hearing, or vision, it is many times higher than that of ordinary people, just now, he suddenly smelled a trace of rot in the air.

"What's the matter...... In our neighborhood. Xia Yu's face was solemn, and he said in a deep voice, and the two sword eyebrows were slightly furrowed together.

Hearing Xia Yu's words, everyone was slightly surprised, especially Zhou Qing and the three of them, as the Great Yuan Realm, they didn't feel anything before, and when Xia Yu's words were finished, Su Ying'er, who had the strongest perception ability, felt something slightly, she stretched out her jade hand and pointed forward, and the jade lantern suspended in the air slowly floated forward for a distance, illuminating the darkness in the distance a little. It turned out that there was an intersection not far from everyone, and an undead warrior dragged a huge battle axe with one hand and slowly walked out from the corner.

Seeing that there were really undead, Sun Ying'er couldn't help but be shocked, thinking: This Xia Yu is so keenly perceived, I didn't even notice anything just now. Being compared to a junior, Sun Ying'er couldn't help but feel that her face was dull, her jade hand shook, and a milky white flame immediately ignited on her white palm, and then she waved her hand, and the white flame shot straight towards the undead warrior, and smashed on its chest with a pop, and the undead warrior was instantly swallowed by the milky white flames, and in a few blinks of an eye, it was burned by the flames and even the bones were gone.

"Remember, these undead warriors cannot be killed, and you cannot kill them, whether you cut off their heads or cut them in two. The only way is to make them disappear completely. Su Ying'er turned her head and sternly admonished Xia Yu and the others.

"Next, we will encounter these undead one after another, and the more we go inside, the more undead there will be, everyone will follow up and cheer up the spirit. Zhou Qing also said, and then waved his sleeves. "Let's move on. (To be continued......)
