581. Because people's hearts are unpredictable, man-made disasters are unavoidable

When Lin Wu heard this, he was even more confused.

The city lord didn't tease Lin Wu anymore, he was more serious, and asked, "How many things do you know about the Chi family?" ”

Lin Wu sorted out what was currently known and said, "Thousands of years ago, foreign objects outside the sky were still outside, causing great harm. Someone in the Chi family begged to go to the Thirteen Ridges, and moved the Lord of the Seven Ridges to help solve it. Later, five heroic boys of the human race stepped forward and spent the strength of the whole clan to seal the foreign objects outside the sky into the city they specially chose and moved overseas. This is the dungeon. ”

"The Chi family is one of these five clans. Later, the Chi family had an accident, and during this period, they also sent people to carry out engineering operations in many places where there were foreign objects outside the sky for no reason, and the purpose should be to trap the foreign objects outside the sky. Otherwise, the foreign body outside the sky would have spread and hurt people a long time ago. I wouldn't have heard of extraterrestrial objects in all these years. ”

"In addition, what I can be sure of is that there was an accident in the Chi family more than ten years ago, which caused Lu Guichi and them to flee from the dungeon, and they also have a grudge against the existence of the dungeon."

Lin Wu thought back and said, "I know, that's probably all there is to it." ”

The city lord listened quietly, without surprise, and said, "What you said is right. But that's just the tip of the iceberg of everything......"

Suddenly, the city lord coughed violently, and he directly coughed up several mouthfuls of blood, mixed with a little bit of minced meat similar to organs. He seemed to be in pain, his forehead was covered in a dense cold sweat, and his body was trembling a little.

"City Lord?!" Seeing this, Lin Wu touched his body.

Fortunately, the back dagger pinned to the side of the leg is still there.

Lin Wu pulled it out, drew it in the palm of his hand without hesitation, and stepped forward to hand the hand that was constantly spilling blood to his lips.

"My blood seems to speed up your recovery. I met the serpent man in Dhamaya, and he was restored with my blood. ”

The smell of blood at hand made the city lord's obscure vertical pupils a little scarlet.

He glanced at Lin Wu, did not refuse, opened his mouth and licked Lin Wu's palm with his snake-like tongue, and rolled her blood into his mouth.

It's a little itchy and a little stinging.

Lin Wu's fingers curled up, but he didn't move.

As a result, after a while, the wound in her palm healed, but the city lord was still in pain when he looked at it.

"City Lord?" Lin Wu was puzzled.

Just that little bit of blood is not enough for the city lord, right? Why let her wounds heal?

The city lord turned his head and said in a dumb voice, "I'm better, no need." ”

"But you haven't ...... yet"

"This city lord is already a dying man, so there is no need to waste it on this city lord anymore."

"Checkmate?"

Lin Wu was slightly stunned, and said, "My blood can make you recover and heal yourself, City Lord." If you recover, you won't die, lord of the city. ”

The city lord shook his head: "I've lived enough." He looked back at Lin Wu, "Besides, with this city lord's situation, you have to use the blood of your whole body to barely heal yourself." ”

Lin Wu glanced at the city lord's miserable injuries: "......"

She immediately withdrew her hand, "That's better to forget it." ”

The city lord was a little helpless and laughed, "You gave up quickly." ”

He coughed a few more times, barely holding it down, but his voice was still noticeably weaker.

"Getting back to the point, this city lord now tells you the whole past of the Chi family."

Lin Wu went back and sat down to listen.

The city lord said coldly: "At the beginning, the Chi family was still a normal person, not an alien. Becoming like this is a man-made disaster as a last resort, not a natural disaster. ”

Lin Wu looked puzzled, "What kind of man-made disaster can reach this level?" ”

"It all started when the dungeon appeared."

"In order to deal with the problem of foreign objects outside the sky, the Chi family asked for the Thirteen Ridges, and it was the Lord of the Seven Ridges who held the magic weapon Kongtong Seal at that time. The Kongtong Seal has a long history of sealing everything, so eventually it also became a seal for the closure of the dungeon gates. ”

"At that time, the five clans were all in the city to deal with foreign objects outside the sky, buying time for the Qiling Lord and the Chi family to close the gate. However, there are too many foreign bodies outside the sky, and it is too powerful, and the five clans have a hard time coping with it, and nearly half of them are killed or injured. And the Lord of the Seven Mountains and the current head of the family finally closed the door, and they had to face the chaos of foreign objects outside the sky, but at that time they were exhausted and it was difficult to resist. ”

"In the end, the Lord of the Seven Ridges made a decision, and he gave the spirit of the Kongtong Seal to the head of the Chi family for safekeeping. With this, the Kongtong seal will not be dispersed, and the gate of the dungeon will not be opened again, and the outside will be safe. And he himself used the forbidden art to trap most of the foreign objects in the center of the dungeon and died. ”

"The remaining foreign objects outside the sky will be solved by the head of the Chi family leading the clansmen to resist desperately."

So in the end, the underground city was divided into two parts, the central city was a place where foreign objects from outside the sky gathered, and the outer area was a safe place where the Chi family and others could live. The gates were closed, and they couldn't get out. They also have to guard the gate to make sure that the Kongtong seal is safe. ”

These are the whole facts of what our ancestors did.

Lin Wu listened, and the ghost made him think of the three things that Lu Guichi was collecting!

Mo Chuan said that part of Lingnan is one of the magic weapons of the Lord of the Seven Mountains.

Then, Lu Guichi and Jian Chonghe are looking for the fragment of the Kongtong seal!

The city lord just said that she could reunite with Kongtong Yin, which was also in line with what Guan Chen told her that the things collected by Lu Guichi would kill her!

"Why did Kongtong Yin end up in the outside world?" Lin Wu immediately asked.

The lord of the city said: "Because it has been too long, it is difficult to be consistent in people's hearts. ”

Lin Wu: "? ”

The city lord said: "At first, those people had no objection to living in the dungeon, they just wanted to guard the dungeon and the outside world. Therefore, they did not come up with a dungeon, and actively explored things suitable for their lives, such as food and water sources, such as housing, such as social systems and infrastructure in all aspects, such as reasonable social order. ”

As time passed, they really figured it out and formed small settlements.

As time went on, the number of people increased.

I don't know when it began, many ethnic groups, large and small, were divided, and everyone fought for the interests they wanted, and there were conflicts, confrontations, arming and darkness.

Over the centuries, a whole small social group has emerged there.

Since the Chi family initially made great efforts to close the dungeon, and the Kongtong seal was passed down from generation to generation in the Chi family, naturally, they were led by the Chi family, and the Chi family assumed the responsibility and obligation of maintaining a balanced order and guarding the foreign objects and gates outside the sky.

Up to this point, the dungeon was peaceful and stable.

When the cracks really appeared, people began to have the idea of yearning for the outside world.

They have been in the dungeon for too long, their ancestors are no longer there, and the rest don't know what the outside world is like, only the words they have heard from childhood and passed down from generation to generation about how prosperous and lively the outside world is.

And the dungeon has been desolate, empty, and bleak for many years.

Their lives are also single and boring, and they must always be vigilant whether foreign objects outside the sky will break through the forbidden magic circle and harm them, and their lives are in danger.

Compared to the two, the world outside the city is too attractive to them.

Fortunately, at this time, they still remembered the ancestral teachings of their ancestors - guarding the dungeon.

So no one has offered to leave, and they can still hold on.

After another few hundred years, during which there has been nothing to do, there was a foreign object outside the sky that escaped in time, and it was quickly solved by the Chi family, and there seemed to be no danger on the surface.

Most people take it for granted that there will be no more accidents, and the foreign objects outside the sky are sealed well.

Then they leave the dungeon and go to the outside world...... It's nothing, right?

Because of this, people began to look around for a way out of the dungeon.

At that time, the Chi family was in possession of the Kongtong Seal, and they took responsibility and protected everyone, and they did not let them know about it and face the danger, and they did not tell them about the existence of the Kongtong Seal. Except for the backbone members of the Chi family, there are very few people who know about Kongtong Yin.

"The Chi family actually knows that someone wants to leave the dungeon and is looking for a way. It's just that as long as Kongtong Yin is still there, the gate will be closed forever, and no one can get out. Therefore, the Chi family doesn't care about those people's actions, and the Chi family basically doesn't have to show up and won't interfere too much with people. The city lord said.

In fact, it's not just not about not interfering, the Chi family actually understands, because the Chi family also yearns for the mysterious outside world, and longs for the day when they can completely solve the foreign objects outside the sky, so that they can live an ordinary life.

But they knew that it was impossible, and that foreign objects outside the sky could not be removed.

So they have to guard the gates and fulfill their responsibilities.

This is the consensus of the Chi family.

The city lord took a deep breath and said, "At that time, our Chi family really thought that every Chi family would have the consciousness of being in the dungeon forever and forever, from life to death. But it turns out we were wrong. ”

Lin Wu was stunned, "What do you mean?" ”

The city lord said calmly: "The Chi family has become a rather large behemoth at that time, there are many people, and they will regularly select some good seedlings from ordinary people to join and patrol together, in case foreign objects outside the sky cause chaos. ”

Over time, in order to facilitate management, the head of the Chi family and several elders divided everyone into two parts: the local clan and the foreign clan. The members of this clan are all elites selected by strict training, and they are responsible for the responsibility of being able to die with powerful extraterrestrial alien objects at critical moments, and to sacrifice and stabilize the forbidden magic circle in the center of the city. ”

"But this clan will only choose the pool family. Because the Chi family does not require other ethnic groups to die like them, if there are people who are really outstanding and have a strong heart and are not afraid of death, they will make an exception to be selected. ”

Lin Wu felt a little subtle in his heart.

How is this similar to the city lord's requirement that the first eight rakshasas train their hands rigorously and then send them to the ice prison?

"The Chi family can strictly control everyone who enters their clan, but they can't control people's hearts."

The city lord's voice sank, and his eyes became much colder.

He said: "At that time, more and more people were eager to get out of the city, and they searched for ways to no avail, and they set their sights on the Chi family, thinking that the Chi family could control the dungeon for many years, and they must also have the way to get out of the city, and even felt that the Chi family would not stay in the city all the time like them, and would definitely sneak out, leaving only them to suffer." ”

"Some people tried their best to win over the Chi family, and both their own and foreign clans tried their best to get in touch, or coercion and temptation, or playing the emotional card, and it really made several Chi family members want to leave the dungeon and leak the secret of Kongtong Yin."

At the same time, there was also turmoil in the extraterrestrial alien body in the center of the city. Because the circle that had trapped them had been weakened for too long, they took the opportunity to tear open a hole and gush out. The Chi family was tired of solving the problem, and it was difficult to take care of the leakage of the Kongtong seal. ”

The city lord paused, and his locked and entangled arm moved slightly, clenching his hand little by little, making a creaking and squeaking bone squeezing sound.

He said word by word: "It was then that the other ethnic groups in the city united to deal with the Chi family, wanting to get the Kongtong seal out of the dungeon. ”

They didn't even pay attention to the unusual chaos of foreign objects outside the sky, thinking that the Chi family could solve it as always, and there was nothing to be afraid of. And they only need to take the Kongtong seal when the Chi family can't take care of them. ”

"But the Kongtong seal is more important than a foreign object outside the sky. As long as the gate is fine, even if a foreign object comes out, it will not break through the gate to the outside world. As a result, nearly half of the people of the clan had to be transferred back to protect the head of the family and resist the attacks of so many tribes. ”

In the end, the Chi family tried their best, but they could neither stop the foreign objects from pouring out of the sky, nor could they keep the Kongtong seal.

The once huge ethnic group had only a few dozen seriously injured people left.

Moreover, the Kongtong seal was destroyed by those ethnic groups.

The doors of the dungeon had been closed for hundreds of years, and it was opened at that time.

Countless foreign objects from outside the sky wreaked havoc and devoured the city, and while the lives were devastated, many escaped to the outside world.

The corners of the city lord's lips hooked up with a sarcastic arc, "Obviously, they didn't listen to persuasion and caused serious consequences, but they also scolded the Chi family for monopolizing the passage of the city gate for several years, not giving them a chance to live a better life, and hated the Chi family very much." ”

"But in the end, it was they who wept bitterly and begged the rest of the Chi family to think of a way, they didn't want to die."

Lin Wu's face froze.

She asked, "The Chi family responded?" ”

The city lord was silent for a long time.

"Yes." The city lord closed his eyes, "Guarding the dungeon is the responsibility of the Chi family for generations. At that time, the remnants tried their best, but in the end they only found a way to save it. ”

"It is precisely because of this that the Chi family has since become an alien who is neither human nor ghost, and he will not survive more than half of them."

The Chi family used to be eager to live an ordinary life in the outside world.

But after that, they couldn't even be an ordinary person in the dungeon and live an ordinary life. (End of chapter)
