After the immortal disappeared

Hey, this fish has seeds in its belly. Put it on the fire and bake it, it will be delicious!

He expressed his disgust through his actions. Dong Rui was furious, but there was nothing he could do. After dinner, he found some leaves of grass, made himself a mask and put it on, finally covering the lower half of his face.

As soon as they finished eating, Zhu Erniang came.

He Lingchuan held up the remaining fish and asked it: "Do you want to try my cooking?"

Zhu Erniang refused. It likes to suck jelly and can eat raw meat, but hates any cooked food. "Come with me after you finish eating, and I'll find a place for you to conduct experiments."

Dong Rui pointed to the abandoned house behind Long Beach: "Isn't it possible here?"

"If there is another flood, this place will be flooded." Zhu Erniang said, "You have also taken a trip under the water. The city was originally above the water level."

The two had no choice but to follow, and Dong Rui couldn't help but said: "Where are we?"

"This is the Demon Nest Swamp, an uninhabited land on the border between Bega and Fu, but it does not belong to any country."

Fu country?

The two looked at each other, and He Lingchuan exclaimed: "Isn't that east of Bejia?"

He slept for hundreds of miles in one fell swoop? !

The water of Han River actually brought him all the way here.

He Lingchuan asked tentatively: "You didn't originally live in the Ghost Needle Stone Forest, so why did you move to the Devil's Nest Swamp thousands of miles away?"

Zhu Erniang snorted: "Back then, there was a war between Baling Kingdom and Panlong City, and the war was brought to my territory. I couldn't get angry, so I killed the generals of Panlong City. Later, Panlong City always came to cause trouble, I was really I couldn’t bear the disturbance, so I had to move.”

He Lingchuan suddenly reacted when he heard this.

Yes, in reality, Zhu Erniang killed General Nanke in Panlong City and would not be tolerated by the Red General. After Panlongcheng wins the battle of Weicheng, we will turn back and deal with it.

It is reasonable for Zhu Erniang to be forced to move. Perhaps she suffered some frustration along the way because it was not elaborated on.

This is completely different from the direction in the dream. In Dafanghu's dream, because He Lingchuan burned down its underground nest farm in time, Zhu Erniang rushed back to the nest, and General Nanke was able to escape. Therefore, Panlongcheng and it did not form a deep grudge. Muscle, the previous agreement was restored, and Zhu Erniang did not need to move.

In the future, will there be more and more differences between dreams and real history?

"I lived in the Bejia Kingdom for a while and found it boring, so I went straight down the Han River and finally settled here." An old monster like it is not used to the life of the monster kingdom in later generations.

He Lingchuan asked again about the origin of the underwater city: "Did the residents leave because the water level rose?"

"How can it be that simple?" Zhu Erniang said eloquently, "This was originally the territory of the Jiana tribe. They lived in seclusion. At its peak, it was said that there were hundreds of thousands of people. Strong men emerged in large numbers, and miracles also occurred. It is said that They also guarded the treasures given by the gods. Later, monsters descended from the sky and killed them all. A few decades later, the water level in the swamp rose and their former residence was flooded again. "

She was leading the two of them out of the abandoned town, but when they passed the tallest building, He Lingchuan saw the statue inside through the open door.

The statue was carved from a single piece of granite and was over three feet tall. It's not easy to find such a big and square boulder in the swamp, and it's even harder to transport it.

There was no tree in front of the building, and a ray of sunlight happened to shine through and shine on the statue.

It turns out that the building located at the highest point of the entire city is a temple?

He Lingchuan let out a long sigh, stumbled on his steps, and stepped in.

This exotic-style temple building has a spacious interior. It has been eroded by wind and water for more than a hundred years. Although it is covered with moss, the white stone floor tiles are mostly flat and complete. When you step on it, it is like playing a bell, and the clear sound is clear and echoes everywhere.

The tribute table has long since decayed, and only a small patch of ground in front of the statue has sunken downwards, which is obviously the result of years of worship by devout believers.

He Lingchuan stood here, looking up at the statue.

This is a goddess with kind eyebrows and kind eyes, and a compassionate face. Her eyes are slightly lowered and she is looking at the believers sitting down. She is holding a treasure pot in her hand, with dragons flying around her and evil ghosts stepping on her feet.

Although it is tangled in vines, it has lost the majesty it once had.

He Lingchuan looked at it right away, his eyes full of shock.

Zhu Erniang and Dong Rui also came in: "What?"

"Is this the god worshiped by the Jana tribe?"

"Yes, they believe in the moon god." Zhu Erniang said slowly, "This is the moon god that Jian Na has believed in for generations. It is a pity that he could not protect them from monsters chasing their lives."

Moon God? He Lingchuan was confused for a moment, this was obviously a disaster!

The entire city of Panlong City worships the Goddess Mitian.

He has been in and out of dreams so many times, and of course he has been to the Mitian Temple. The appearance and demeanor of the Mitian God enshrined there are slightly different from this one, but he will never admit his mistake.

What's more, he had just seen this face in his dream before.

Red General!

Although the red general has a cold face, the goddess statue has a compassionate face, but the facial features are at least seventy-nine similar, especially the iconic brown phoenix eyes.

Thousands of miles apart, Panlong City's patron saint actually had followers deep in the Demon Nest Swamp, and he even changed his name?

He had no choice but to ask Zhu Erniang: "How much do you know about this Moon God?"

"How did I know?" Zhu Erniang knocked on the ground, "When I came here, this place was already deserted."

Dong Rui also wondered: "Then how did you know that the Jiana clan was wiped out by monsters?"

"Strictly speaking, it is not a genocide. Some of their descendants escaped and moved to the edge of the Devil's Nest Swamp." Zhu Erniang touched her round belly with her paws. "Before I eat my prey, I like to chat with them. Hear some interesting stories.”

Once again, life in the swamp is too boring. He is a big monster who likes to listen to stories.

He Lingchuan, Dong Rui: "..."

You really need to escape as soon as possible.

He Lingchuan's heart moved: "Then do you know in which year the Jiana tribe was exterminated?"

Zhu Erniang stood still and tried her best to calculate in her mind. After a while, she said: "Well, if the descendants of the Jiana tribe remember correctly, today should be one hundred and seventy-four, no... one hundred and seventy-two years ago. "

One hundred and seventy-two years ago? Isn’t that the seventeenth year of the Panlong Calendar?

That was one or two years after the Chifeng Mine Incident.

While Panlong City was prospering under the protection of heaven, the Jianner people who believed in it were almost exterminated.

They are so close in time, what is the connection between the two?

"Have you ever seen the statue of the Mitian God enshrined in Panlong City?"

"Of course not." Zhu Erniang was dissatisfied, "Do you think I can walk into Panlong City like this? Why, what is the connection between the two?"

"It's so similar." He Lingchuan just answered casually, but Zhu Erniang was even more casual: "What's so strange about that? Many gods have more than one image and one title in the world."

So that’s it?

The two of them left the ruins of the Jana clan and walked into the vast jungle.

After walking for several miles, the terrain became higher and higher, and the two were forced to climb halfway up the mountain.

A large area of ​​the ground in front turned out to be an irregular sinkhole, with a maximum diameter of about ten feet and was very deep. The rock walls are covered with calamus and small trees.

Zhu Erniang pointed at the tiankeng and said, "We're here."

He Lingchuan looked around and saw shadowy figures in the forest, all of which were spiders wandering around. He knew that Zhu Erniang was not at all worried about them.

In the territory of the burrowing spiders, even the eels have to pay tribute to them obediently. Unless they have wings, it will be difficult for them to escape.

At this time, even He Lingchuan couldn't help but miss the benefits of Dong Rui's strange bird.

Dong Rui was also looking up at the sky, wondering if he had the same emotion.

At this moment, Zhu Erniang raised her front paws and suddenly pushed them down the sinkhole——

It moved extremely fast and struck from behind, not even He Lingchuan could dodge.

With a "plop", Dong Rui fell into the water, and He Lingchuan turned over in the air and jumped to the small tree on the edge of the cliff.

The water in the sinkhole is very clear, but bottomless.

Dong Rui was splashing in the water, and Zhu Erniang's figure stood on the edge of the sinkhole: "My children will lead you to the laboratory. They have everything there. If you need anything, just tell them. Although the terrain down here is complicated, there is only one exit. I advise you not to play tricks like this, otherwise you will watch yourself being sucked dry bit by bit!"

He Lingchuan and Dong Rui looked at each other and shuddered.

Sure enough, there is a passage by the water, deep into the heart of the mountain, and the entrance of the cave is guarded by more than a dozen spiders.

When Dong Rui waded through the water, He Lingchuan also jumped to the entrance of the cave without touching the water.

When the two of them walked in, there were two little spiders leading the way.

Dong Rui swallowed the water in his mouth: "As expected, it is worried about us. Hey, do you still have the red potion you stole from me?"

He asked twice, but He Lingchuan didn't reply, he just looked around.

The tiankeng is not independent, but connected to a cave. After walking for a short time, there will be a branch road. However, Little Spider seemed to be very familiar with this place and led the way without hesitation.

"Hey, you..." It's just an ordinary cave, what's so interesting about it?

The cracks in the rock wall are covered with soft grass and fungi, and you can often hear the sound of water flowing all the way down, which will eventually flow into the sinkhole.

He Lingchuan suddenly said: "There is something strange here."

They were thrown into the sinkhole by a spider demon. Dong Rui said angrily: "Is there anything that is not weird?"

The cave is not exposed to daylight. Fortunately, the cave spider transplanted fluorescent spores into it, which acts as a street light. The passage is still quite bright.

"You touch this stone wall."

Dong Rui reached out and touched the cave wall. It was not very hard, as if it was covered with a thin layer of soft skin, and the color was slightly ocher.

Is there moss growing on the stone wall? He looked carefully and saw that there was no such thing. Instead, there were traces of vines growing on the rocks everywhere.

"Strange, there is such a stone?"

And He Lingchuan was busy concealing his shock and had no time to talk.

The little spider who led the way turned a few corners and led the two of them to a stone room:

"arrive."

There were several spider monsters guarding here, so it retreated.
