Endless desert!

That's right, when Zhang Zichen opened his eyes, the original lush forest was gone, replaced by an endless desert.

The sky was exposed to a round of scorching sun on the earth, Zhang Zichen's skin was about to shed a layer of skin, and the sweat of the bean size started from his forehead and kept flowing down, and in just a few minutes, Zhang Zichen's clothes were wet with sweat.

Therefore, Zhang Zichen believes that this is not an illusion, but a place where the real existence exists. The thirst of a qiē, the pain of the skin, and the realism of sweat, Zhang Zichen will not be wrong.

"What's going on?" Zhang Zichen couldn't help but ask in his heart, "Did the patriarch chant a spell that made us have a big shift, or did we enter another dimension?"

So far, this is unknown.

After about ten minutes, the patriarch stopped singing, and the dozens of Miao people also stopped dancing, which was really hard enough for them, and they could still hold on for so long in such a harsh environment.

"Untie the two men down and bring them into the castle. The patriarch commanded in Miao language, and the two of them immediately helped Zhang Zichen and Hu Yilai to untie themselves, in the patriarch's opinion, since Zhang Zichen and Hu Yilai had entered this alien space, it was absolutely impossible to get out.

"Old Hu, what did the old man say?" Zhang Zichen couldn't understand the Miao language, so he asked Hu Yilai.

"They told us to loosen our ties and take us into the castle. Hu Yilai explained.

"Castle, where is there a castle, in front of us is a large desert, where did the castle come from?" Zhang Zichen looked around and found that in addition to the desert in front of him, the sky was still a desert, and the sky was scorching or scorching, where was the so-called castle.

"The castle is behind!" Hu Yilai may have discovered the situation a long time ago.

"Behind?" At this time, Zhang Zichen and Hu Yilai had already been put down from the cross by these Miao people, and when they heard behind him, Zhang Zichen hurriedly turned around, and there was indeed a huge castle behind him.

Towering over the desert, this massive castle is an ancient castle with a black air above it.

When Zhang Zichen turned around and saw the castle, he seemed to see countless yin spirits flying and screaming at the top of the castle, this is a castle full of evil aura.

"Take them with you and go!" The patriarch seemed to be in order to show his ability, and specially ordered his subordinates to bring Zhang Zichen and Hu Yilai, and they walked towards the castle together.

In this way, including all the women present, they lined up very neatly, in a row of four, and slowly moved in the direction of the castle.

Arriving at the gate of the castle, the feeling of exposure to the scorching sun in the desert disappeared, replaced by a hint of coldness, which was best reflected in the two heavens of ice and fire.

The castle is very large, just one side of the city wall, Zhang Zichen can't see the top, and even a brick is longer and bigger than Zhang Zichen's block. If the construction of the pyramids in Egypt is a mystery, the construction of this citadel is even more puzzling.

The size of each brick is unimaginable to others, even the gate of the castle is dozens of meters high, Zhang Zichen walked out from this spacious gate, feeling that this city gate is a bit overkill.

In short, human beings are like a truck in front of this castle, compared to ants, that feeling, but they will feel extremely small.

Through the gate of Guò Castle, the air inside is very heavy, the wind is strong, the cold is cold, and from time to time there are terrible human cries.

There are many buildings in the castle, such as turrets, barracks, houses, etc., but there is no one, it is empty, and it is very scary.

Walking along the huge blue brick paving road, after walking for several hours, Zhang Zichen and his party came to the front of the palace.

More than 1,000 people stood under the palace, and after kneeling three times and bowing nine times in the image of the patriarch, they continued to move forward.

Along the way, Zhang Zichen kept turning back, and there were more than 1,000 women in the back, many of whom were young and beautiful, but these people were not Zhang Zichen's target, Mo Yifei was the concern in Zhang Zichen's heart.

Of course, Zhang Zichen looks back from time to time, which will make others feel inappropriate, but between men and men, you know......

So even the guards didn't scold Zhang Zichen too much, allowing his eyes to wander over the meat buns and black spots behind him.

Entering the palace, it was a bright hall.

Eight huge columns rose from the ground, supporting the top beams, and all kinds of gold jewelry were embedded in the columns, emitting light, even on the roof tiles, all kinds of gold jewelry were made into the appearance of a starry sky.

"This palace of the ancient Dian Kingdom is really gorgeous!" Zhang Zichen can guarantee that even the palace of Qin Shi Huang is not so luxurious, not so luxurious.

"Hmph!Tu Baozi!" but one of the guards guarding Zhang Zichen said contemptuously, "Our great god Chiyou was defeated by Emperor Xuanyuan thousands of years ago, and Emperor Xuanyuan began to take revenge on the descendants of Chiyou everywhere, and our ancient Dian Kingdom was no exception, and was displaced by Emperor Xuanyuan overnight, with countless casualties. However, our king said that the great god Chiyou was not dead, and that one day, the great god of Chiyou would come back and avenge us. ”

"This story is a bit strange, why is it recorded in many books that after Chi You was defeated by Xuanyuan, Xuanyuan was a benevolent monarch who accepted Chi You's subordinates and helped his people develop and survive?" Zhang Zichen asked.

"What do you know about these?" the guardian sighed, obviously a little worried about their current situation, "Since ancient times, what emperor would say that he had done something bad? Starting from Qin Shi Huang, he slaughtered the Six Kingdoms, burned books and pit Confucianism, and other crimes, and he was not the only one who had the final say? And Liu Bang killed Xiang Yu in order to claim the emperor, Liu Bang became a great man, and Xiang Yu was a straw bag. Li Shimin killed his brother and brother, coerced his father to abdicate the throne, and so on, why was it right for the king to massacre civilians and kill his brother and brother? It was because they were kings, and sometimes history could be changed in a word. ”

"Do you know a lot?" Zhang Zichen smiled, "Have you read a lot of books?"

"I've been in the valley of Gudian Village since I was born, and in addition to practicing Gu art every day, I just read books, so I know a lot. "The defender was a young man, in his twenties, wearing a Hmong costume.

"Oh, then in your opinion, Emperor Xuanyuan did something wrong. Zhang Zichen carefully understood the defender's words.

"Hey!" the young guardian sighed, "After the death of the Great God Chiyou, our ancient Dian kingdom was destroyed, and a few people escaped, including our powerful king. The king of our ancient Dian is named Dianchi, and he is one of the ten protectors of the great god Chiyou, and he escaped death. ”

"Dianchi Lake, is that the name of that big lake?" Zhang Zichen was stunned for a moment and asked.

"Yes, in fact, the great lake is named after our king. The Guardian continued, "After the king of Dianchi escaped death, he was furious, so he used a kind of sorcery to send the ancient Dian kingdom into another plane, which is the plane we are now. ”

"No wonder with your spell, we went from the forest to the desert at once, and it turned out that this valley was a huge spatial seal. The patriarch did this, just a spell to open the door of the seal. Zhang Zichen completely understood.

"You're right. The guardian glanced around and saw that no one was observing him, so he continued, "The King of Dianchi not only sealed the ancient Dian kingdom in another time and space, but he also sealed the two million subjects in the ancient Dian kingdom who were killed by Emperor Xuanyuan. But to seal these things, the king of Dianchi must use his flesh and blood as an introduction, so he casts spells while bleeding, and at the same time cuts off his own flesh from time to time. ”

"It seems that this is a good king. Zhang Zichen smiled bitterly.

"The king of Dianchi is indeed a good king and a good subordinate, but he did this to avenge the great god of Chiyou and the subjects of the ancient Dian Kingdom, in order to be able to take revenge one day. "The defender is a little lost," in order to seal the castle and his subjects, the king of Dianchi let go of all his own blood, cut off his own flesh piece by piece, even if it was his eyeballs, he dug them out at the last moment. The king of Dianchi died, but his soul did not disperse after his death, and his bones turned into a big tree. ”

"Is that the king tree we saw?" Zhang Zichen wondered.

"That's right, the King's Tree is the bone of the King of Dianchi. The Guardian explained.

"Your patriarch said that since thousands of years ago, you have been pouring blood on the ancient trees, what is going on?" Since the guardian was willing to answer, Zhang Zichen decided to explore this matter to the end.

"Well, that's the thing. The guardian sighed again, "Actually, the king of Dianchi sealed the castle and the corpses of his subjects, which is a forbidden witchcraft called revenge Yin Spirit. The meaning is obvious, the king of Dianchi can't bear to be killed, he can't bear to be killed, he can't bear to kill millions of subjects, he seals the corpses of himself and his subjects, ready to take revenge one day. ”

Zhang Zichen suddenly realized, and seemed to understand something: "You mean, if you want the king of Dianchi and these millions of subjects to turn into yin spirits and come back for revenge, then you must devour the blood of human beings?"

The guardian smiled bitterly: "You only guessed half right, that's right, if you want the King of Dianchi and his Yin Spirit army to come back, you must water the blood of humans every month of the year." Especially women's blood, which is the best tonic. ”

"Oh oh! I see!" Zhang Zichen exclaimed, "Women's blood is negative, especially the blood of unmarried and childless women is the best recuperation primer, so you have arrested so many unmarried women." ”

The guardian shook his head helplessly: "But unmarried women are not so easy to catch, so among them, there are many married women." ”

At this point, Zhang Zichen completely understood that thousands of years ago, Chiyou and Xuanyuan fought a war, Chiyou was defeated, and Emperor Xuanyuan wantonly slaughtered Chiyou's clansmen and descendants in order to punish Chiyou's rebellion.

Among the people slaughtered was the ancient kingdom of Dian .

In order to take revenge, the king of Ancient Dian Dian Chi sacrificed himself to seal the entire ancient Dian castle and the corpses of these millions of subjects, and then let those surviving descendants guard them and sacrifice fresh blood to them every month every year. Over the years, one day Dianchi will lead his Yin Spirit troops to resurrect and recapture this world that belongs to them, this is the ancient Dian Kingdom, and it is also the story of the Miao people. xh118
