Legend of the Tang Dynasty

Compared with Shen Yin and Bian Zechuan's situation, Chen Yuming's business does not seem to have so many weird illusions. He and Mo Buwan rode on the ancient road to Diezhou, and the scenery they saw was nothing more than the scene of the Western Desert.

Mo Buwan always felt like there was sand in his mouth, and spit out a few times: "Qi Ming, this journey is different from what we thought. There are no escapees, not even a corpse."

"But this makes me more worried."

"why?"

"I came here once many years ago. In my memory, the road leading to Diezhou is not full of lush mountains, but it is by no means a desolate and desolate scene."

"It's probably always like this in the northwest direction." Mo Wuwan said

Chen Yuming still had doubts in his heart and said, "Let's have a look when we get to Diezhou."

Soon the two rushed to the Diezhou border, and since they saw people, they were starved and sick. Unlike the previous villages that were swept away by the war, this place seemed to be flooded with some inexplicable disease.

Chen Yuming and Mo Buwan rode slowly on the road, looking left and right at the dying people on both sides and the children picking up things to eat. From time to time, a corpse covered in sores would be carried out of the alley.

Mo Buwan frowned deeply and said, "What's going on here?"

After Chen Qiming signaled him to get off the horse, the two wanted to stop a passerby to ask what happened, but almost everyone fled in a hurry without even looking at them. Finally, they took out a dry ration from the horse's pocket and squatted down Pass it to a child in rags by the side of the road and say

"Brother, give this to you. Can you tell my brother what happened here?"

The child nodded hastily, and after taking the dry food in Mobuwan's hand, he immediately started to gobble it up, and Mobuwan went on to say: "Eat slowly, there is still not enough."

After the child finished eating, he looked at Mo Buwan and said with a trembling voice: "All the crops and livestock in our village suddenly died, and the grain that had been harvested also rotted, and finally we suffered from the plague..."

Mo Wuwan raised his head and exchanged a glance with Chen Yuming, Mo Wuwan continued to ask: "It was like this overnight?"

"It's been like this for two or three days. Without food, we can only go to the woods to find food, but we didn't expect that the woods around here are all dead." The child choked back his tears.

"Since there is a plague, why don't you report it to the government?" Chen Yanming said

"It's too late..." The child rolled up his sleeves, revealing the shocking scars, and said, "No one will survive, everyone here is dead, you guys go too..."

Reflexively, Chen Yuming pulled up the boy who was squatting in front of the child. This disease is fierce, and if he gets it, it will be a big trouble.

Mo Buwan knew that Chen Yuming was worried about himself, so he nodded slightly at him and said, "I'm fine."

Chen Ximing looked around and said: "This plague is not only dangerous but also very strange. I know a little about medicine, but I have never heard of any disease that can come so fiercely."

"Then what do we do here?" Mo Wuwan asked

"Of course we can't ignore it, but seeing that this place is about to become a dead city, there is no medicine and no medical treatment to solve the problem. In my opinion, it is better for us to rush to the city of Diezhou first, and ask the local government to send people to rescue. As for the two of us, we have to Let's go find the culprit of this disaster."

"Do you suspect it was made by a demon?"

"It's not too late, let's find someone first."

While the two were galloping, Chen Yuming said to Mo Buwan, "It's not too late, have you heard of evil rumors?"

Chen Yuming's voice came to Mobuwan's ears along with the wind. He thought for a while and asked, "That fierce beast that is said to be on Mount Tai?"

"That's right, the water will dry up when it moves, the grass will dry up when it moves, and the world will be plagued by a catastrophe when it is seen."

"Isn't this... exactly what we saw?" Mo Wuwan said

"So I suspect that the monster near Diezhou is Fei."

Mo Buwan and Chen Yuming came to the city of Diezhou, and the situation here didn't seem to be much better than the village just now. Although there were not so many dead bodies everywhere, there were still epidemics.

When the two came to the government office, at this juncture, the local officials heard that it was an adult from the middle of the capital, and without asking, they knew that it must not be a petty official, so they came in a hurry and said politely: "Zhang has seen two adults. "

"You don't need to be courteous to Zhang Fu Yin." Chen Yuming raised his hand and said: "We are the Chang'an Demon Police Department. We passed through Diezhou and found that the plague is rampant here. Didn't your government report it?"

"Monster arrest?" Zhang Fuyin muttered a sentence, and immediately said as if he had seen a savior: "This is really great! To be honest, two adults, there are monsters near Diezhou. At first, the officials didn't believe it. , until a few days ago when I traveled to Dongshan Mountain, I saw the beast roaring past with my own eyes, and the nearby villages were completely destroyed the next day."

Zhang Fuyin couldn't help wiping off his cold sweat as he spoke, and said: "I'm ashamed to say that, because of this, I was so frightened that I fell ill for several days. I heard that my lord has come to Beijing, so I reluctantly got up."

Although it is unusual to see monsters and beasts, it is normal for ordinary people to encounter fear and anxiety, but this official is even more vulnerable than the common people. People die every day in the city, but as a governor, he lies at home every day and hides. Disease, this kind of behavior makes Chen Yuming, who has always accused him of being an official, can't help but sneer.

Chen Yuming looked sideways and said, "Since Mr. Zhang has seen it, let's talk about that monster."

"Yes, yes." Zhang Fuyin responded repeatedly: "The monster is very burly, like a bull, with horns on its head, and it seems to be green all over. The officials didn't dare to look carefully at that time, but That's probably it."

Chen Yuming had already made up his mind, and he ordered coldly: "Hurry up and report to the imperial court to ask the imperial doctor to develop a prescription. As a governor, Mr. Zhang should naturally open a warehouse to release food to help the people, so as to avoid more disasters."

"Yes, I'll do it right now." Zhang Fuyin tried to ask: "Then this monster...."

"You don't have to worry about this, we will take care of it naturally."

"Okay, then the officer can rest assured."

After leaving the government office, Chen Yuming and Mo Buwan went straight to the Dongshan Mountain that Zhang Fuyin said. Along the way, there was no grass growing and no water flowing.

Chen Ximing looked at the surrounding barren hills and said: "If you confront it head-on later, you must pay attention to avoiding any part of its body. Don't touch it or let it touch you."

"Can't even touch it?" Mo Buwan asked

"Well, poisonous insects can be emitted from Fei's body, so be careful." Chen Yuming instructed

Could it be too late to nod, Chen Yuming turned to open his yin and yang eyes, and saw the bursts of evil spirit rising from the withered barren mountain, and soon he found a cave with a particularly strong evil spirit, he signaled that it was not too late Following him, the two slowly approached the cave. Although they could not see the vision like Chen Yuming, they also noticed the aura of the monster approaching.

The two walked to the entrance of the cave. Standing on the side and looking down, they found that it was a very deep cave. They stretched out their hands and waved a piece of red spiritual power, illuminating it for an instant. Both of them found that the cave was deeper than theirs. The imagination is deeper and deeper, at least it is impossible to fly down by relying on body skills.

Chen Qiming thought for a while and said, "Well, I'll try to go down and have a look, and you will meet me from above."

Knowing his style of taking the lead, he still objected: "If you want to go down, I will go down. If there is any danger, I can fight better than you."

"Is now the time to beat who can fight?"

"That's right, there's no need to compare. With such a big risk, you don't know who is the best choice?"

"But me!" Chen Ximing was about to blurt out the words that he didn't want him to take risks, but he still paused, and said, "I don't think it's a good choice for you to go down."

"Okay, then don't let anyone go down." Mo Buwan took two steps back and sat on the stone pier on the ground.

"you!"

When it comes to playing ruthless and rogue, Mo Buwan has never been afraid of anyone. Compared with Chen Ximing's overall situation and thinking, Mo Buwan cares more about his own thoughts. Unless he doesn't want to do it, nothing will hinder him from achieving his goal.

Chen Yuming had no choice but to say, "Okay, you go down."

"That's it." Mo Buwan got up and patted the dirt on his body and said, "Don't worry, if I feel something is wrong, I will come up immediately."

Mobuwan cautiously descended into the cave. He climbed on the rock wall and descended slowly. Every time he descended to a stage, he would talk to Chen Yuming and keep in touch with each other. No matter how scared, Chen Yuming, who was standing outside the cave, was already trembling with fear.

"How is it? Are you okay?" Chen Yuming paced back and forth by the entrance of the cave

The voice in the cave responded farther and farther each time, but this time it seemed that it took a long time, and finally there was a response: "Qi Ming, I have reached the bottom!"

After hearing this, Chen Yuming immediately said: "Don't wander around! Wait for me and I'll go down right away!"

When Chen Ximing came down, he took out a fire folder from his arms, and the light of the fire illuminated the small part around him. The stone walls around him were covered with slippery water traces, and his footsteps echoed in this deep grotto. In the middle, when Mobuwan was about to explore the surrounding terrain, he suddenly felt that something tripped the soles of his feet. When he took the torch and looked down, what immediately caught his eyes was also a strange phenomenon .

In this icy grotto, there are all the bones of the dead.

Mo Wuwan took two steps back like a conditioned reflex, leaning against the stone wall and remembering that it was time for Chen Gongming to come down, Mo Buwan shouted in a panic: "Qi Ming!"

He yelled twice and didn't get any response. Could it be that his heart became more and more panicked at this time, it was obviously Chen Yuming who climbed down the road he came down, why did he disappear in an instant?

Huo Zhezi's light is not enough to look up too far, and it is not too late to see Chen Ximing's trace, and the only thing that is certain is that Chen Yuming has definitely gone down to the grotto and cannot see himself. , After he calmed down, he felt that the first thing he should do was to keep the light on. The fire book couldn't last too long, and he had to find something that could continue to ignite.

Could it be late to tentatively walk into the depths of the cave, thinking about the bones at his feet, he couldn't help but feel a little terrified, he is not afraid of anything but only afraid of ghosts. So far, there has been no improvement. At this time, he thought that if this time To be able to go out safe and sound, no matter what you say, you have to get rid of this problem.

The road ahead was getting darker and darker, and the remaining light behind him was getting weaker and weaker, and just when the torch in Mo Buwan's hand was about to burn to the end, he heard a bang from above the cave.
