Chapter 6: A Dream
Ye Dong had a dream.
In his dream, he came to Bronze Town.
It may be because the people here are obsessed with smelting copperware, and they have no distractions, and they seem to be very simple and realistic, and of course, there are no shortage of masters with eccentric tempers.
Walking into the Bronze Town, I saw that the stalls on both sides of the street were full of all kinds of copperware, wine jugs, wine glasses, farm tools and swords.
Able to create high-quality, extremely sharp swords and even cut gold and jade, such coppersmiths are very rare, basically inherited from son to father, passed down from generation to generation, almost no outsiders.
Because of this limitation, many of the superb smelting techniques and secrets were lost.
After walking around Bronze Town, Ye Dong continued to walk towards Lingshan.
This time, there are many tributaries of the river, and the mountains are clear and green, and they all look similar, Ye Dong relied on his vague memory to go deep into the foothills, but he found that he seemed to be on the wrong path.
I walked farther than last time, and I was almost completely depopulated, and I didn't even see a few fields that had been cultivated.
His heart was a little flustered at first, but it didn't take long for him to relax, whatever, he was free here, looking for food in the mountains and forests when he was hungry, and looking for water to drink when he was thirsty. I just feel that between this vast world and the world, I am free to live or die like this, and I don't think so much about the rest.
He breathed heavily, screamed loudly, farted, ran wildly, and rolled on the ground.
Lying on the ground, looking at the blue sky and white clouds, the sun is shining, smelling the fragrance of grass and various flowers, I feel that my soul is dancing gently.
"Woo Woo ......"
Suddenly, a strange sound came from deep in the woods.
Ye Dong couldn't suppress his curiosity, first he concentrated on his ears, and listened carefully to the sound with his hand for a while, the voice was intermittent, if there was nothing, faint and ethereal.
He finally couldn't help but take a step and slowly walked inside.
The inside is densely vegetated, with tall trees shading the sky and the sun, and the fog is thick and the air is cold, which is very different from the outside.
"Oops. Ye Dong shouted, something was mixed under his feet, and then he rolled down the slope in front of him.
When he got up, he saw that there seemed to be a cave in the weak part of the mist, and invisibly, the mist seemed to emanate from there, and it seemed that the cave was sucking the mist.
The strange sound of "...... Boom" sounded again.
Ye Dong hesitated for a while, and finally seemed to have finally made up some kind of determination, and then walked towards the mysterious cave in the mist.
The light inside was dim and invisible, and Ye Dong touched the mountain wall and walked inside. As he went deeper inside, he felt the cave slowly widen.
At this moment, he suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart, and almost instinctively quickly fell to the ground. Sure enough, a group of mysterious things flew by in the darkness, making squeaky noises, and several of them even crashed into him, so frightened that he held his breath and did not dare to move.
"Ahh Apparently bitten by something.
It didn't take long for Ye Dong to feel weak, his body was extremely cold for a while, extremely hot for a while, sweaty, and his clothes were soaked.
In a moment of dizziness, he gradually lost consciousness and passed out.
"Where am I?" Ye Dong opened his eyes, and although his consciousness had recovered, he didn't react to where he was for a while.
He staggered to his feet, put his hand on his forehead, squeezed it vigorously, rubbed his temples again, then touched his neck, and muttered to himself, "What's going on, how can I see what is inside?" ”
Somewhere in the cave, I saw a flock of things that looked like both bats and eagles, eagle-beaked bats, and their eyes glowed strangely red.
Ye Dong secretly wondered: Was he bitten by such a guy?
He looked over there for a moment, then looked away, only to see a pile of dry bones on the ground.
This seems to be human bones!
Ye Dong was taken aback and took a few steps back.
He steadied himself, hesitated for a moment, and finally slowly approached the white bone.
The white bone fingers pointed upward, Ye Dong looked up, and saw a poem engraved on the mountain wall:
The immortal road is boundless, and who bows his head when the prison sea sinks.
Looking back, the mortal dust has become a dream, and the oath has become a demon after all the calamities.
Ye Dong couldn't help but read out loud slowly, only to feel the ups and downs in his heart, and his heart was unsettled, only to feel a sense of desolation, helplessness, anger, unyielding, and rebelliousness spontaneously, which made him have an urge to let out a long howl to express his chest.
Could this be the author of this poem......
The people of the past have turned into white bones, and there are traces of old poetry in this place.
"Alas!"
With a long sigh, Ye Dong knelt down in front of this pair of white bones, and then kowtowed three times respectfully.
This person may have been a famous hero in his life, but for some reason he died in this cave, which is really a bit embarrassing.
Ye Dong finished kowtowing, stood up, and said in his mouth: "The late-born boy will bury his predecessors, don't blame it." He dug a hole in the side and carefully put the bones in.
In the process of moving, Ye Dong accidentally scratched his hand, and the blood flowed out quickly, and before he could remove the bleeding, a drop of bright red blood dripped on the spine of the white bone.
He was about to shout sorry and say something to express his guilt, when suddenly he saw the white bones explode and scatter, only the blood-stained spine was suspended in the air, and the rest of the bones were directly blown into powder.
Ye Dong was stunned and looked at it with a frightened gaze. He could have been forced to move the bones calmly before, but after all, he was only a child less than ten years old, and this scene was too weird and shocking, and he was stunned for a while.
After a moment of this, he screamed and ran outside, and only dared to look back when he was outside.
The spine floated out of the cave with him, and he followed wherever he went, making Ye Dong almost collapse, and couldn't help but say: "Senior, junior has no intention of offending, if you offend, I hope your old man will forgive me, and forgive me." ”
Before the words fell, this section of the spine slowly changed, and it slowly turned into a knife-like thing that emitted a white jade-like luster. Without waiting for Ye Dong to react, he suddenly turned into a streamer and pierced Ye Dong's chest.
And then gone, gone.
