Chapter 1302 Dark City is about to open
The wooden house here is a bit simple, but it is enough for Fu Zhaoning and his friends to rest for a night.
Leaning in Xiao Lanyuan's arms, Fu Zhaoning suddenly thought of the Master of Youqing Temple again.
"The master of the temple won't go with us, and he won't say where he's going. What do you think he's going to do?"
The master of Youqing Temple was obviously also from Dongqing, and they were from the lineage of the national master. Knowing that they were coming to Dongqing, he did not go with them. Instead, he said that he had some things to deal with and asked them to go first.
This made Fu Zhaoning feel a little strange.
Xiao Lanyuan didn't care. "Since he said he has something to deal with, let him do it. When I was at Youqing Peak, he rarely asked me what I was going to do."
But Fu Zhaoning always had a hunch that what Youqing Temple mainly did was still related to them.
She didn't say anything and pinched Xiao Lanyuan's waist.
Xiao Lanyuan's waist tightened, and he rolled over and pressed her down.
"Ningning can't sleep?"
"What are you doing?" Fu Zhaoning quickly pushed him away, "This wooden house is not soundproof."
He had been traveling for half a month without touching her, and he was already feeling uncomfortable. Now that he was here and had his own Qinglong Guards guarding him, Xiao Lanyuan could no longer bear it.
"They've moved away. They won't come over."
His breath was a little heavy, so he reached out and probed.
Fu Zhaoning couldn't hold back, and soon, he almost made her scream. She covered her mouth.
Xiao Lanyuan was on top of her, watching her movements with a hint of smile in his eyes, and he increased the strength from his waist.
On the other side of the mountain, Fu Jinchen reached out, held Shen Qiao’s hand, and pulled her up the slope.
Above, Lan Rong and a group of people were pushing a huge wooden wheel.
This was something they had discovered before. Originally, Lan Rong and the others didn't know what this huge wooden wheel was or what its function was. After Fu Jinchen came and studied it for a day, he came to the conclusion that this was a mechanism to open the gate of the Dark City.
It turned out that the mechanism should have been in a pit, but because of changes in the terrain, it was exposed.
Lan Rong led people to dig around it, and only then did the whole picture reveal itself.
After pouring some soybean oil into the mechanism, they are now ready to push the wooden wheel to see if they can open the gate of the dark city directly.
"Husband, has this dark city ever been recorded?" Chen Qiao and Fu Jinchen were watching from a higher place.
"It is recorded that Dongqing's Dark City was once very famous. It is said that many people from all over the country would come to the Dark City several times a year to trade. The things they brought were varied, including strange and bizarre. Therefore, some people who wanted to find something would come to the Dark City at this time to try their luck."
Fu Jinchen said, "When we were being hunted by the Shenyi Cult a few years ago, we met an old man. You may not remember him. That old man was extremely long-lived. We couldn't guess his age. He said that his father had been to Dongqing Dark City and accidentally bought two longevity pills in the Dark City."
"I have no impression."
"You were ill at the time, and your memory became confused afterwards, so you probably can't remember it."
Shen Qiao looked at him with admiration.
It was obvious that he had memory problems before, but after being cured, he could remember everything. This was because his memory was excellent.
"The old man said that he lived so long because he ate that elixir. Although it's hard to say whether this is true or not, it shows that the Dark City really exists. And in the Dark City, there are probably some records about Dong Qing or clues to other cities."
Lan Rong came over and heard what he said.
"Master Fu, we actually hope that since Dark City is so special, there are still people alive inside."
"Well, it's not impossible. If the outside world is sealed off, but Dark City has food and water, and can still grow crops, there may be survivors."
Fu Jinchen actually also held such hope.
Previously, there were people who survived in several villages in Dongqing, and their bloodline was continuing, which was a huge surprise for them.
Those people have always believed that Dongqing still has a chance to prosper again.
They said that someone had once passed on a prophecy from the national master, saying that Dong Qing's luck was not yet exhausted and that there was still hope for life, so all they had to do was wait.
Their mission is to survive.
