Chapter Forty-Eight: The Vanishing Residents
As a result, the people found that there was indeed a huge city at the foot of the mountain.
Hidden in the mist at the bottom of the mountain, looming, through the eyes of Shan Yiyi and a few people, I saw that it was like a ruin, the walls had collapsed, and the houses had collapsed, and it was a mess.
What's even more strange is that the architectural style of this city is very different from the style of the surrounding houses, if you have to say, it is closer to the buildings in the capital.
Because they were really curious, Shan Yiyi and a few people decided to go down and have a look.
Walking down the mountain road, there is nothing wrong with it all the way, and the aura around is also relatively evenly distributed, except that it is obviously more abundant than in front of the mountain, there are no other problems.
Speed all the way to the edge of the city.
Sure enough, it was in ruins, many houses had collapsed for unknown reasons, and the bricks and tiles were mottled and faded, and they could not be seen in their original appearance.
There was no breath of living people in the city, and it seemed that there was no breath of the spirit grass seen yesterday, the ground was full of knee-high weeds, the spirit was relatively weak, and there were a lot of gravel and gravel.
Shan Yiyi looked at this city and scratched his head very clearly: Who built the city in the middle of the mountain?
In the past, the gods did not say that there was a city behind the mountain, she had lived on the mountain for two lifetimes, could it be that she had never found it, or forgot to say it, or the city was not a good city, so she didn't say it, or this city was not there before???
There were so many questions that filled her little head, making her more suspicious of the city, and she didn't dare to go into it casually.
But when Shan Niang saw this place, she originally planned to live in seclusion in the mountains during the disaster, and she felt that she had found an excellent place.
And suddenly found a city, and inevitably wanted to find out.
It's just that the dart walker is careful and cautious, she is worried about some plague or spreading disease here, and she reminds the children to protect themselves with spiritual powers, and it is best not to touch anything in the city first.
So Meng Feifei gave himself a breath-holding technique, and then gave a copy to the three people who had not yet learned this technique, and each of them placed a small isolation formation, which could isolate the air in the city.
The four of them walked into the city together, cautious and on high alert all the way.
Fortunately, there was no obstacle on the road, and they entered the city again, and began to grope and check from the edge of the city, opening the door or touching objects with spiritual power, while Shan Niang followed behind them, mainly to observe.
They went into a few houses that were not so badly collapsed, and saw that there were tables and chairs, large beds and small beds, and even pots and pans, which seemed to have some breath of life, except that most of the wooden tables, chairs and beds had begun to decay and collapse.
Things like clothes and bedding are nowhere to be found, and naturally there are no corpses or bones in them, so it seems likely that the original residents have been relocated en masse.
After looking at a few houses at the edge of the city, the four of them went deeper into the city.
When you look down from the hill, the city is already quite large, and now that you are in it, it feels like a real big city in the city.
It's just that this place seems to be full of residential houses, and there is no trace of shops.
There are one or two restaurants, but unfortunately the plaque is not protected, and it has been rotting for a long time after being exposed to wind and rain, and I can't see what kind of restaurant this is, what is the name, and when is the font.
This means that they have no way of knowing the history of the city and where it came from.
The four of them spent a full hour, carefully walked through most of the ruined city, basically found no more, except for residential houses and restaurants, there are no more buildings in the city, and it is a little creepy.
The four of them finally stood in the middle of the city, looking at each other.
Where is this place, why does it exist, where do they come from, and where are the people going?
What do they have to do with the spiritual plants that were everywhere last night, why are there bricks and tiles in the city deep in the mountains, and seeing that the economy of the whole city is good, how did they move these bricks and tiles to the mountains?
And why did Shan Yiyi's immortal Shan Shiyi in the afterlife never mention this city to Shan Yiyi?
Did she not know about it? Or did she forget to say it?
But if you don't know, it means that this fairy has never gone to the top of the mountain? This seems to be inconsistent with what the fairy said, and the fairy went to the top of the mountain, but he couldn't see the city behind the mountain, which doesn't sound logical.
It can't be that this city doesn't exist in the life of the gods, right?
This possibility sent chills down the spine of the two adults and the half-grown single girl present.
I don't dare to think of such a possibility, so maybe the gods forgot to mention it, or think that there is no need to mention it for the time being.
But if so, can this city stay now?
If they can, they will have more storage and planting space, and they can bring people to repair the house and then transfer the supplies to the city.
In the future, they can live in the cave to facilitate the going up and down the mountain, and the rest of the resources will be hidden in the city, and it is impossible for people outside the mountain to think of this.
Shan Yiyi's spiritual grass can all be transferred here, the ground here is relatively flat, and it has obviously been repaired, so they can even directly enclose a large area of spiritual fields here, and when there are more immortal cultivators led by Shan Yiyi in the future, they can also hire people to help her take care of the fields, and even live in the city together, practice and live together, and set up a base area.
It is unlikely that there was a trace of this place, so this city should have the value of in-depth research, and if you can find any clues and understand the history of this place, it is also a very good choice.
But if this place is not suitable for living, then why is it not suitable, whether there are circulating diseases, or whether it is dangerous, these are all things that need to be considered and tested.
Shan Niang, Second Sister Shan and Meng Feifei discussed various issues.
The youngest Shan Yiyi didn't like this link, so she began to look around.
A quarter of an hour later, suddenly, she noticed that there was fog in the city!
The fog, which was very thick and difficult to see, suddenly rushed towards the place where they were!
Shan Yiyi subconsciously felt a little flustered, and couldn't care about being polite, so he interrupted the discussion of the other three: Look, it's foggy!
The three of them looked over: what a thick fog!
Or rather, it doesn't look like fog at all, it's more like the thick white clouds piled up on a sunny day, pouring in layer after layer.
Shan Niang was the first to feel wrong, grabbed Shan Yiyi, and said to the other two: "Withdraw first." ”
Meng Feifei and Second Sister Shan also felt that this fog was very strange and did not dare to stay longer, Meng Feifei took Shan Yiyi to mobilize spiritual power and withdrew from the city, while Shan Niang left with light skills, and the second sister followed on the side, just in case.
The four were quickly evacuated.
When they came to the top of the city, they looked down and saw that the fog had "swallowed" the whole city.
The huge city disappeared into the mist, and the farther the four of them went, the more they saw that it was no different from the mist-shrouded valley.
When they returned to the top of the hill and looked down, the city was gone, and the white fog was thick and lasted for a long time.
When the four of them saw this scene, they couldn't help but think of an explanation: maybe that "Shan Shiyi" really had never seen this big city, because all she saw might have been this thick fog.
