Chapter 29 - Chapter 29: Death Road

More than three thousand years ago, the earth experienced a small ice age, and the extreme cold enveloped the Eurasian grasslands. The ancient Indo-Europeans living there were not allowed to migrate.

This was a very barbaric nation, but it had highly developed weapons in that ignorant period. They domesticated horses, created wheeled vehicles, and had bronze ware. Almost all the crystallizations of the entire civilization were prepared for war and migration invasion!

There is no doubt that before the steam age made nomads hospitable, these ancient Indo-Europeans were absolutely terrible. They spread everywhere like a plague. In the era when they were rampant, humans had almost no light to speak of.

When they appeared in the Eastern world, ancient India, one of the four ancient civilizations, was immediately beaten to its knees and called for its father. The civilized society was shrouded in the caste system, and everyone became a low-class slave. The face of the entire nation was almost rubbed on the grinding wheel. Since then, nothing related to greatness has appeared on that land. The country was destroyed, but the race was not destroyed.

It can be said that when mankind just had a little hope, three of the four ancient civilizations were tortured to death by these ancient Indo-Europeans. It was they who almost made all mankind sit on flatbed carts and chase sheep forever.

Later, they rode their horses and wielded their swords, and came to China in a big way, and once fought in the Hetao area.

Then, a woman in China stood up. This woman was Fu Hao, the queen of King Wu Ding of Shang Dynasty. She was a woman like a god of war. She raised her arms and called for the Chinese to take up arms. The so-called invincible Aryans were killed to despair, and only a small number of people survived as slaves.

Before this female god of war closed her eyes, she pushed all the surviving slaves into the trenches for burial. Now these bones are thrown in Yinxu, telling the world how the ancestors of China defended the land and why this nation could stand for five thousand years.

The place where the three of us are now is called Luliang Mountain. From the emergence of the feudal dynasty to the present, there has indeed been no war, but this place is close to the Hetao area. In the period of civilization and ignorance... Fu Hao defeated the Aryans here! !

So, what are these old ghosts like zombies in front of us? Is there any need to say it?

I ran away a long time ago. When I jumped into the circle to get something, I forgot to raise the triangular yellow talisman above my head in a hurry, and I was almost burned to death.

Bang!

The sound of neat and heavy footsteps became clearer and clearer. A ghost with a fox skin on his shoulder rushed to the top of the mountain first, quietly approached us, and stabbed with a spear.

Brother Yaozi was the first to react. He turned around and grabbed the spear handle that was stabbing at him. He broke it with a "crack". At the moment when the ghost soldier fell forward due to inertia, he stabbed the spear head into the opponent's neck with his backhand. The ghost soldier screamed and disappeared in a puff of black smoke.

"Don't take it, it's too late!!"

Brother Yaozi saw more ghost soldiers climbing up from the other side and kicked me hard on the butt: "It's time to go!"

All our dry food and tools are here!

I gritted my teeth, put on my backpack, picked up my master's backpack and ran. I didn't know what was in his backpack, but I knew that his bag might be the most important of all our luggage!

The three of us had taken as much as we could, but at least half of the things fell on the top of the mountain.

Brother Yaozi dragged us to the other side of the mountain and looked down. The ghost market was here. The mountain was filled with thick fog, but the dog below was not foggy. There were still green lights flickering. They were all ghost lights. At this time, we could hear that it seemed quite lively below.

"Enter the ghost market! No matter how powerful the ghost soldiers are, they dare not attack the ghost market in this area!"

Brother Yaozi made a decision immediately. There was a large number of ghost soldiers rushing towards us from behind. He had no time to delay. He held me with one hand and Zhang Xinya with the other, wishing us not to let go, and then headed down the mountain.

The way down the mountain was filled with rolling gray fog. It was all ghost fog, not condensed from water vapor, and it was no different from thick smoke. Once you plunge into it, everything around you can't be seen.

The three of us ran for our lives, which was equivalent to running with our eyes closed. There were many trees here, and soon I heard Zhang Xinya screaming and shouting "Bleeding", probably because she hit a tree...

Whoosh!

Suddenly, thick fog surged on the hillside, and gusts of wind swept in, mixed with a foul smell, followed closely behind. The wind that originally blew us changed direction and turned into a powerful suction force that pulled us forward continuously.

"It's that big snake!"

I have personally experienced this kind of power, and immediately said: "It is lying in ambush on the hillside, hiding in the thick fog to plot against us!"

"This beast! There is a road to heaven, but you don't take it. There is no door to hell, but you break in!"

Brother Yaozi seemed annoyed, and whispered to me and Zhang Xinya quickly: "Being entangled by this thing, none of us can leave. I will go to clean it up in a while, and you two run for your lives! Xinya, remember, before entering the ghost market, you must grab a handful of mud from the ground and smear it on your face, and then peel a piece of paper from Jingzhe and stick it on your face, so that you may be able to get away!"

Then, I felt a cold and slippery hand pressed into my palm. It should be Zhang Xinya's hand. Brother Yaozi grabbed our hands and put his face in front of me. Although there was fog blocking us, I could still see that he looked very solemn at such a close distance. He lowered his voice and said to me: "You should not be entangled by evil ghosts in your current state, but Xinya may not be entangled in the ghost market. She is in your care. You must survive!"

He seemed to be explaining his last wishes. Zhang Xinya was also panicked, but as soon as he shouted "Brother Yaozi", Brother Yaozi suddenly pushed us out. His hands were very powerful. This push was like picking up Zhang Xinya and me and throwing us out. We both exclaimed at the same time, completely got rid of the suction, and flew out. However, before landing, I saw a black shadow getting closer and closer to us.

"Be careful of the tree!"

I shouted. The tree was right in front of Zhang Xinya. I pulled her hard and tried to pull her away, but it was too late. Zhang Xinya was just like a big tree in Luliang Mountain. With a "bang", we hit each other hard. Our two tightly held hands were also separated under the huge force.

Bang!

I fell heavily to the ground not far ahead, and then rolled down the hillside due to inertia.

The world was spinning in front of me. I felt that my paper body was about to break apart. I didn't know how far I rolled on the hillside before I finally stopped. I was so dizzy that I finally stood up after a while.

"Zhang Xinya!"

I shouted, and my voice was excited in the woods, but there was no response.

Didn't she faint?

The collision was not light. I didn't hear Zhang Xinya screaming at all. If she fainted there, it would be dangerous. At that moment, I turned back to look for it based on my memory. At the same time, I took off the Tianshi Blade from my backpack. The black fire stick was sealed by my master, so it didn't hurt me at the moment. Instead, it was slightly cool to the touch, which made me feel more at ease.

I plucked up my courage and walked quietly on the mountain road in the dark. Not far away, a rustling sound came from the side.

It was very quiet here. The sound came suddenly and seemed very clear, just like the sound of something passing through the grass.

If it was Zhang Xinya and Brother Yaozi, they must have heard my footsteps and would definitely talk to me at this moment. Since there was no one, it could only be something else...

That snake?

I immediately stopped, holding the Tianshi Blade, and waited motionlessly.

But, I didn't move, and the thing in the dark didn't move either.

Maybe it was the desire to survive in my bones that was at work. I was really alone and helpless at this moment, but I was not so scared. I just held the Tianshi Blade with more and more force. I was forced to this point where there was no way out. I was thinking about fighting the opponent desperately.

For a long time, I didn't hear the movement again.

Did he leave?

I thought it was unlikely. After a little hesitation, I took another step.

Sure enough, when I moved, the thin rustling sound came out again.

Behind me!!

This time, I accurately captured the opponent's position through the sound, and turned around suddenly with the Tianshi Blade ready to pounce on him.

Whoosh!

The wind was blowing, and a black shadow flashed in front of me. The other party grabbed my wrist holding the Heavenly Master Blade with one hand, and my waist with the other hand, dragging me away immediately. At the same time, a terrible roar sounded behind me...

At the moment of being hijacked, I saw a face full of cracks flash before my eyes!
