Vol 2 Chapter 6697: . Four Cities (4)
Chapter 6697
"Come on, let's go!" Duanmuqing nodded.
She couldn't understand why, what happened in Sicheng, and why did it become like this?
"Ganniang, isn't this Sicheng named after the Sifang City Wall?" Su Ruoxi asked curiously.
"That's right, because the Sicheng is close to the dark forest. It is said that the dark forest is often attacked by beasts, so the cities that are close to the dark forest will build square walls, and the same is true for the Sicheng!" Duanmuqing explained.
Along the way, Landie and Xiaomeng looked like guards behind Su Ruoxi and Duanmuqing!
Duanmuqing went to a place where there were people and stopped to ask why Sicheng became like this, but no one knew. Even the people of Sicheng seemed to be used to the questioning of outsiders, and their attitudes were a little numb, saying they didn't know, no clear!
Duanmuqing asked several people one after another, and he couldn't help frowning slightly!
Su Ruoxi didn't say anything, just walked with Duanmu Qing to the corner of the south of the city intentionally or unintentionally!
The size of the four cities is not something that Su Ruoxi and a few people can walk through in one day!
So after dark, a few people stopped and set up tents to rest!
The next day continued. Four days later, Su Ruoxi and Duanmuqing finally came to the old man's courtyard. It happened to be noon. The old man in a wheelchair seemed to be basking in the sun with a blank face!
Even if he noticed that Su Ruoxi and others had arrived, he didn't even give him a look!
When Duanmuqing approached, she noticed that the aura of the old man was not weak. Although she couldn't compare to herself, but after she entered the city, most of them were weak, but the old man in front of her was stronger!
"Senior, we're a little tired after passing through the four cities, can you borrow a place to rest?" Su Ruoxi looked at the old man and asked politely.
Duanmuqing didn't speak, just looked at the old man!
"Little girl wants to inquire about Sicheng, why is it like this?" The old man didn't look at Su Ruoxi, but said lightly.
"Cough cough, I didn't expect to be seen by the seniors!" Su Ruoxi said, familiarly, walked into the small courtyard, took out a cushion, and sat opposite the old man, for fear that the old man would not be able to see her. !
Duanmuqing didn't make a sound, just sat with Lan Die in the yard on the left side of the old man!
The cushions are provided by themselves!
Hearing the words, the old man finally turned his gaze to the opposite Su Ruoxi!
Su Ruoxi also looked at the old man without hesitation. After a while, the old man withdrew his gaze and looked outside, sighing softly: "I know what you want to ask, but since you are passing by, don't pay attention to it so much! "
"These four cities have now been destroyed, and it is not outsiders who destroyed the four cities, but the four cities themselves..."
Su Ruoxi and the others fell silent after hearing the old man's words!
Especially Duanmuqing, she never thought that after coming to the Sicheng again, the Sicheng would become like this. According to the old man, the turmoil in the Sicheng started more than 5,000 years ago!
At the beginning of the period, a lot of people died in the city because of a plague-like illness, so chaos began. If there were not many people living here for generations, the plague might have turned the Sicheng into an empty city!
Later, after the chaos ended, Sicheng also died and most of the people escaped. It can be said that the rest are the more famous families in Sicheng for many years!
It has been quiet for more than 300 years since then, but it will only start to become chaotic again.
