Chapter 153: The City of the Damned

A round of sun hung in the air, the pale sunlight sprinkled on the undulating and uneven earth, and the plants and trees were listless, and there was an indescribable sense of emptiness and anxiety.

Lu Qiqi clutched her chest and stood up with difficulty, and under her was a clump of soft fluffy grass, which fortunately kept her from being injured. It's that the pain in her chest is so bad that it seems that it was Jun Linyuan's finger that hurt her heart.

She couldn't understand why King Linyuan had made a move on her, and if he had been ill-intentioned towards her, why had he come to the rescue so many times? This inconsistency didn't make sense.

Alas, now I can't figure him out and can't arrest him for questioning, and I don't know what kind of place this is, as if he was pushed by King's Landing at that time. Where exactly she fell, she didn't notice it because of the pain in her chest.

There is no way, there is no one here everywhere, and you can only come and settle down, walk forward to see if you can meet people, and ask where this is.

Unexpectedly, this walk took more than ten days, and the sun rose and fell twelve times. Finally, I saw a city, the blue walls looked dark and long in the pale sunlight, and I couldn't tell how long it was.

"Great. Lu Qiqi, who was already physically and mentally exhausted, jumped up with joy, and his sore limbs seemed to be infused with new strength, and he ran over with a roll.

"Hmm, why is there no one at the city gate?" Running to the city gate, Lu Qiqi found that there was no one in front of the city gate, not even a normal guard. When I looked inside, there seemed to be no one to be seen, giving people a feeling of lifelessness, could it be an empty city?

No matter, let's go in and have a look. Lu Qiqi shook the dust off his clothes, cheered up and walked into the city. Passing through the city gate, it was as if a curtain had been lifted in front of her eyes, and the streets were crowded with people.

The first person who saw her coming in from the city gate was stunned, and stood there looking at her in a daze. Then the others also discovered Lu Qiqi as an outsider one after another, and they all stood there as if they had seen something incredible.

So there was a strange scene at the gate of the city, hundreds of people stood there stupidly watching the uninvited guest of Lu Qi, and there was a deathly silence in the air.

It was the first time for so many people to look at him with such strange eyes, and Lu Qiyi's heart was furious. The little raised his paws, smiled stiffly and said hello: "Hi, hello, may I ask what kind of place is this?"

"Ah, hello. ”

"Yes, yes. ”

......

Lu Mi seemed to have activated the mechanism for these people to speak, and one by one the machines began to greet Lu Mi, and suddenly I didn't know who shouted: "Ah, someone is really coming in, someone is coming." ”

Immediately afterward, more people raised their hands in carnival and shouted: "Someone is coming, someone is coming." ”

"Someone's coming in!"

"Someone's coming in!"

The sound rippled like ripples in the water, spreading one by ten, ten by hundred, more and more widely, and more and more people joined in. These people danced, cried and laughed, and fell into a state of madness.

Are these people crazy? Lu Mi was dumbfounded.

"Hello. A delicate-looking woman in black lined up the crowd, walked out of the crowd, and came to Lu Qiyi, "I am the city lord Nightingale here, welcome to Fearless City." ”

"Hello," Lu Qiqi also greeted her, then pointed to those people, and asked strangely, "What's wrong with them?"

Nightingale laughed, "They can't be blamed for this, it's been years since outsiders have been to Dreadnought. ”

"Ah, why?" Nanwuling is not a very remote place, lame Taoists and Li Yanshi can find it here, let alone monks.

"Alas. Nightingale sighed, "It's a long story, why don't you go to my house and sit down." ”

"Okay. Lu Qiqi was puzzled, shouldn't a normal city lord live in the city lord's mansion, how could he listen to the other party's tone, as if she was living in her own home.

Walking on the road, Lu Mi found a strange phenomenon in this city. All the houses were exactly the same, low and low, one door and two windows, very simple, one next to the other.

The house in which the nightingale, as the lord of the city, is no different. As soon as Lu Qiqi walked in, he felt very depressed. The light was poor, the places that didn't shine were dark and damp, and there were dark green moss in the corners. The overall feeling of this house for her is like a prison in the human world, the only difference is that there is no musty smell in the prison.

"Sit. The nightingale pointed to a half-new, half-old mat on the ground and invited Lu Qiqi to sit down.

Lu Mi was stunned for a moment, such a thin mat, isn't it a shame to sit on the mat? Then I saw that the nightingale was already kneeling on the mat, sitting on her calves with her hips, her upper body straight, and her hands on her legs seemingly casually.

It turns out that the sitting posture here is like this, Lu Mi was embarrassed, and quickly learned her posture to sit down.

"We don't eat here, so we don't have any tea, don't be surprised. Nightingale said apologetically.

Lu Mi was surprised: "Won't you be hungry if you don't eat?" The people here don't look like monks who have been able to completely clear the valley.

"No, it won't. Nightingale shook her head, "Dreadnought is a cursed city, and all the people in it don't feel hungry, they don't grow old, and they certainly don't have new life. ”

"And this kind of curse? Isn't this a disguised way to help you live forever?" Lu Qiqi felt that such a curse was unwantable for many people.

Nightingale didn't expect Lu Mi to say this, and was stunned for a moment before saying: "But this kind of immortality is too terrifying, the only thing we can do is to watch the sunrise and sunset every day, and nothing else can be done, it can be said that it is no different from the walking dead." ”

"How can it be? There are so many people out there, and there are so many things that can be done. "For example, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, walking horses and watching flowers, is it also fun to fight cocks and dogs?

"Well, I said that this is a cursed place, and nothing can exist but this city, the houses here, and us. The nightingale's eyes welled up with pain, "All we can do is rise at sunrise and rest at sunset." ”

Her pain is incomprehensible to Lu Qiyi, in Lu Qiyi's limited cognition, so many people together, even if they just talk, it will not make life boring.

"Oooo

Nightingale's face changed, and she said to Lu Mi apologetically: "I'm sorry, I'm going to rest, and we'll talk tomorrow." ”

"Huh?" Lu Qiqi opened his mouth wide in a stupid way, watching the nightingale move quickly to the side of the bed, and lay down with his clothes.

"City Lord, City Lord, Nightingale City Lord. Lu Qiqi walked to the bed and called softly, and the answer to her was the slight snoring of the nightingale, and she was already asleep.

Lu Qiqi looked out the window, and the sun was just gathering the last rays of afterglow. She stepped out and found that the whole city had fallen into a dead silence after the bell rang. Those who didn't have time to get home were randomly trapped on the ground, snoring slightly.
