"Hehe, don't underestimate the craftsmanship of 800 years ago, besides, I have been in Solan City for the past 800 years, and I have always checked the gate switch and repaired it, hehe...... But not anymore...... The flood is coming, and the city of Solan will cease to exist, so you all bury your master. ”

Sure enough, if you listen closely, you will find that the sound of water outside is getting louder and louder, and the ghoul grandma leans against the sarcophagus and says loudly: "The illusionist is not omnipotent, what can you do in the face of such a natural disaster?" Haha, let's die with the entire Solan City. ”

Tang Yao finally began to get nervous, he was about to rush out of the ruins quickly, but he heard a voice from behind him shouting at him: "Don't go out, it's too late to go out." ”

Tang Yao turned his head to look, and it was the boy who spoke, Tang Yao asked, "What do you mean?" ”

"Come with me, I know a secret way to get out of here." The boy said that Tang Yao didn't believe it very much, after all, it was also one of the dried corpses made by the ghoul grandmother.

"You want to save them, why?" The ghoul grandmother looked back at the boy's corpse and asked, it stood up with the sarcophagus, and as soon as he finished saying this, he rushed to the boy's corpse, the old guy's speed was extremely fast, and in a blink of an eye, he was in front of the boy's corpse, shouting loudly, "I killed you, you traitor, sure enough, I should have killed you a long time ago." ”

It's a pity that the old guy didn't get his wish, a spear of light shot from behind and nailed the ghoul grandma to the ground again, Gulin floated to the side of the ghoul grandma and lowered his head, looked at it with cold and ruthless eyes, and said, "Hurry to get on the road, right?" ”

The ghoul grandma struggled to raise her head, and what it saw was the cold face of the master from the martial arts era, and Tang Yao standing behind the back of Gu Lin with his hands in his pants pockets, and the ghoul grandma couldn't help but say this in her heart: What kind of person can control such a terrifying ancient spirit.

And Tang Yao, who had his hands in his pants pockets, was looking down at the boy's corpse, and there was only one thing in his head, could this boy believe it?

"I'm running out of time, don't think about it, hey, I'll talk to you, don't think about it." The boy shouted at Tang Yao, and indeed the sound of the water outside was getting louder and louder.

Tang Yao finally nodded at this time and said, "Then I'll believe you once, where is the secret passage?" ”

"Come with me, inside the ruins."

Tang Yao followed the boy's corpse, not only him but also Ming Wei and Song Xin, although the two were unwilling to go with Tang Yao, but now their lives were critical, so they could only come together, the boy took the three of them to a huge ghost head stone statue in the deepest part of the ruins, and then skillfully climbed to the top of the ghost head stone statue, and after groping for a while, he found a certain mechanism on the ghost head stone statue, after pressing the mechanism, the ghost head stone statue opened its mouth, and a deep secret passage appeared, The boy took a glowing red hedron from the wall next to him, held it in his hand, and then walked in front and entered the secret passage.

Tang Yao followed, but when he stepped into the entrance of the secret passage, he turned back to Ming Wei and Song Xin and said, "I have no problem with the two of you going out with me, but if you make small moves in the secret passage, then I will not be polite, even if I kill you here, I can push your death to this flood that floods Solan City, I think both of you understand." ”

After some warning, Tang Yao walked into the secret passage, and in the dark secret passage, Tang Yao raised the obsidian, and the four of them walked forward quietly under the faint light.

"Where does this secret passage lead?" Tang Yao asked.

"This secret passage was originally reserved for Solan City, when a large number of people surrounded Solan City, the city lord realized that Solan City would be captured one day, so in order to lead the people to escape and prepared this secret passage, but unfortunately it was not used, and there was poisoning......

The boy's dry corpse seems to be very familiar with this place, and in Tang Yao's opinion, such a secret passage may not be known to many people before it is officially used, since this secret passage is prepared by the city lord, it is likely that only people who are very close to the city lord can know the location of this secret passage and the mechanism that it opens.

"How did you know about this secret passage?" Tang Yao simply asked directly.

The boy did not look back, and whispered as he walked: "Because my father is the lord of Solan City, our family of four people, my parents have not escaped the slaughter, and my sister and I also died, but we were made into dried corpses by my grandmother, the reason is that my sister and I have a special physique, we can all be parasites after the resurrection of the blood king, but the ghoul grandmother has not been able to complete the ritual, so I asked my sister and I to kill people, she said that as long as you kill a hundred people, you can be free, Actually, my sister and I both know that is a lie, but we also want to be free, but in our eyes, freedom is to die completely, not to become a dry corpse. ”

"Then why did you save me, according to you, you should have killed innocents like your sister, but I remember the first time we met, you persuaded me to leave." Tang Yao asked, the tone he spoke to the boy's corpse was basically the tone of an adult, don't look at him as a child, but in fact he was more than eight hundred years old.

"Because there is a person, he said to me that I can't let others lose their home just because I have lost my home, he said that there is reincarnation in this world, if there are too many evils, then you will not be able to reunite with your family in the next life, I actually don't care if I am not a person in the next life, as long as I can be with my family, even if it is a family animal, it doesn't hurt."

"So you stopped killing people from that point?" Tang Yao asked.

"Yes, but my sister didn't, she always said that she would be free earlier, and she was willing to become the body of the Blood King, because then her own consciousness would completely disappear and then be free, Grandma also said that one day we will be reunited with our family, in fact, Grandma is very good to us, she also said that one day in the future, if the Blood King is reborn and rebuilds Solan City, she will make me the city lord, in fact, I don't care about this, the reason why I stayed is only because I can't kill myself, Grandma will always repair me, Because I've become a dry corpse. ”

As the two spoke, the road in front of them gradually widened, Tang Yao looked ahead and vaguely saw a bright light shining in through the outside, at this time the boy stopped and said: "The front is the exit, the exit is closed by a wooden door, but with your ability, it should be easy to open, and I will send you here." ”

Tang Yao was stunned and asked strangely, "Aren't you going to leave with me?" ”

The boy shook his head, at this time Song Xin and Ming Wei had already surpassed Tang Yao and walked forward, the boy took the red gem and stepped back, and said as he stepped back: "Where are I going to go after I go out, besides, I can't leave Solan City, I'm just a dry corpse, and now my grandmother will be buried in the river with me, this is the best way for me and my sister to get rid of it." ”

After he finished speaking, he bowed slightly to Tang Yao and said, "Then I will send you here, I will not see you in this life, I wish you a smooth sea and prosperous martial arts." ”

After saying that, the boy turned around and walked back to Solan City, Tang Yao whispered at this time, "Freedom?" Isn't that what I want? ”

He turned away, holding the obsidian and walking against the boy's corpse.

When he arrived at the exit of the passage, the wooden door that the boy said had been opened, Song Xin and Ming Wei had already left the passage and climbed out, Tang Yao came out of the passage when it was already under the hillside outside Solan City, he saw Ming Wei and Song Xin standing not far away, there was a rumbling sound of water behind him, and he turned his head and saw that the tumbling river instantly rushed into Solan City, flooding houses and trees, although it had not completely submerged the huge Solan City, but it was a matter of time, and the ancient city of eight hundred years was submerged little by little in front of Tang Yao's eyes.

He closed his eyes, and the words that the boy said about the corpse: The phantom sea is smooth, and the martial arts are prosperous, which has always echoed in his ears.

He didn't know why he liked it very much, it was simple but powerful, and he whispered it over and over again, and before he knew it, he had gone out for a while.
