Otherworldly Merchant
Chapter 1689: 4 The Ancient City
Cold as frost said here, it was already a look of exhaustion. She rested for a moment and continued with a strong spirit: “Xinjiang drought and light rain, sand and dust storms all year round. Within a few years, the city of Yar Qian was hidden under a piece of yellow sand. After many years, many soldiers who followed General Zhao Hui's march returned to their homeland and spread the news about Ye Qing, especially the treasures of the rich enemy, tens of times exaggerated..."
My eyes lit up and I think I understand why the Cold Family came to Tianshan.
Cold as frost glanced at me, the corner of my mouth gently pulled a smile: “Brother Jiulin, do you also think that Cold Family came for treasure?” She has a slight voice and a little bit of unconscionable pride: “Then you are so wrong. If the Cold Family only has treasure in their eyes, aren't they like those tomb thieves? ”
I touched my nose with embarrassment: “I didn't think so. I thought the Cold family had come to Xinjiang because Yale City was acting weird. ”
Frost's eyes lit up: "Yes, Brother Jiulin, you were right. In fact, it was very difficult to return to the Qing Dynasty when people were squeezed. If they were not forced into a certain situation, how could they resist? So their treasure is not gold and silver, but a treasure book...”
I was slightly stunned: "Treasure Book? ”
“Exactly.” Cold as frost nodded seriously: “Back to Islam, this treasure book is the Koran. The book was buried beneath a million miles of yellow sand with the city of Yale. For thousands of years, I didn't know how many winds had come to touch Jin, let alone how many lives had been laid in it. It is clear from the Cold Clan Spectrum that the innocent people who died in the fire were all orphaned wild ghosts and attached to the Koran. This city became a dead city. Rumor has it that if you step into the gate, you will surely die, and there is no possibility of life. The power of the Koran is growing every year, and our Cold family lives in Tianshan, in fact, for this ancient book. ”
I suddenly nodded, “I see. Did you come to me for this book? ”
Cold as a frost shook his head: “Of course it's not that simple. My strength is not even my opponent for this book. Do you know how my wounds got here? It was only a hundred miles away that I felt its evil power, struggled to resist it, and a house with a vow of allegiance would fight for its life that gave me a moment to escape. But after all, I have been badly wounded, I have had it for months, and it's still not good...”
I couldn't help but notice the cold, white face: "The power of this ancient book has reached this point? ”
Cold as frost shook his head again, he said with great weakness: "It's not the power of ancient books, it's the ghost city.” She said here, suddenly she coughed violently, and I rushed to find a cup from the side to hand it to her. The cold frost waved at me and slowed down for a while before continuing: “Brother Jiulin, do you know the history of this city? ”
I shook my head blindly.
“It's no surprise that if I wasn't Cold Family, I wouldn't have gone out of my way to get to know it.” Cold as a frost, he gasped, “Yelcheng was built in the late Tang dynasty and was designed by a man named Anibal. Anibal also did the brightest thing in the Wei language, this returning senior is not only familiar with architecture, but also mastery of astronomy, five lines, fengshui, easy to learn, calculate, Yin Yang... is a remarkable figure! This city is a very special place, both feng shui and yin yang, and my grandmother once told me that the city of Yar Qian is missing its name in the history books, but the special location is almost comparable to the palace in Beijing. It should be known that the palace was built by the Ming Emperor Zhu Zhu, a city centuries before it. At that time, there were no modern measuring tools, enough to show the study of Anibal. ”
“As you put it, this city of Yarbourg can only be said to occupy the heavens and the earth, but I hear your tone, and it seems to go far beyond that?” I couldn't help but frown.
Cold nodded: “Although the outsiders call this city the city of Yale, our cold family prefers to call it the Four Ancient City. ”
“Four... the ancient city?” I repeat, cold as frost.
Cold as frost gently hummed: “Since it is called the Four Ancient Cities, there must be four in the city. The first is absolutely time. There is nothing in the ancient city that distinguishes time except daylight, and the clock stops once it enters the city. ”
Not surprisingly, the man named Anibal chose to build the city here, probably because there was some kind of strange magnetic field. It is not new that the clock is disrupted by a magnetic field and stops working.
Cold as a frost, he continued: “This second is definitely a shadow. There is no shadow in the city, whether architectural or human...”
No shadow?
I was slightly surprised.
Cold as frost saw me was an accident, he continued: “This is the third absolute rumor, no one who enters the ancient city will survive!” When she said this, she suddenly laughed bitterly and said, “It's not unusual. How can anyone come out alive when there are so many unhappy dead spirits in the city? ”
I smiled with her, “What's the fourth? ”
“The fourth, of course, is the Qur 'an, which for thousands of years has never existed, even though countless people have risked their lives to enter the ancient city in search of it. Later, some people thought there was no such thing as ancient books in the city. Otherwise, how could it be safe under that fire? ”
After saying these words in a cold breath, she was exhausted. She fell on her bed and looked at me weakly. “But this ancient book does exist, and it lies quietly in the unquestioned darkness, like an opportunistic beast, slowly accumulating her strength until one day it reappears light and brings disaster to the destruction of the heavens and the earth...”
Seems to think of such a horrible picture, cold as frost strikes an obvious chill.
Although I haven't been with her for a long time, she is both cultivated as the future ruler of the cold family. Naturally, her spleen is strong and she easily refuses to accept defeat. This is the first time I've seen her look desperate and scared!
Cold as frost seemed to want to say something else to me, but after a severe cough, she gasped very hard and couldn't say a complete word. At this point, a knock came out of the door, and it was cold and frosty. I had to reply for her: "Come in! ”
In addition to the gossiping Li Mazi, there is also a Xinjiang youth who came in with the sunglasses man. Twenty-four or five years old, with big eyebrows and dark skin, but very handsome, especially those eyes, as if they were two brilliant gems.
He was shocked to see the cold as frost. He grabbed the pair of sunglasses and asked anxiously, “Master, are you... are you okay? ”
Master?
I exchanged my eyes with Li Mazi. Is this young man also a servant of the Cold Family?
Li Mazi is even more obscene: “I suspect he is a private male spouse and is playing some queen game. ”
I gently slapped him over the head.
