I have seen the miasma emanating from demon corpses melted by the sun in the Xuanwu world. Although the miasma is blinding, people can vaguely distinguish people, but this is not the case here. Ling Zhao and I walked in it hand in hand, a little Whoever takes longer steps can only see half of his body.

Ling Zhao tightened his arms and pulled me to his side. I thought that it was not appropriate to compete with him in the current situation, so I let him pull me, looking for a way out in this cloud dreamland.

Suddenly, there was a faint music sound in front of us. Ling Zhao and I looked at each other, held our breath, and moved slowly towards that place.

When we got to the source of the sound, we were both taken aback.

The cloud and mist in front of him dissipated, and suddenly a huge temple appeared. The temple was magnificent and majestic, and it is incomparable to any temple in the hundred worlds of the gods.The temple stretches for hundreds of miles, and the afterglow of the setting sun casts golden and red lights on the white pillars, adding some melancholy magnificence to the magnificent temple.

The reason why I say melancholy is because there is no one in the temple, and the building is already empty, like an abandoned beehive, or like an old man who is dying, feeling lost in the setting sun.

At the entrance of the main hall, I saw a statue similar to Bixi, but its neck and tail were much longer than the real Bixi. A guess flashed in my mind: "This... is the Xuanwu Temple?"

752

It’s hard for me to believe it. Both Ling Zhao and I have been to Xuanwu Realm, and we’ve seen the crumbling Xuanwu Temple that couldn’t even accommodate ten rooms. Compared with the current giant that stretches for hundreds of miles, it looks like a shabby thatched cottage .

In addition, the Xuanwu world has been in decline for a long time, and the power of the Xuanwu gods is low. For thousands of years, no Xuanwu gods have been able to return to their ancestors. No one can be sure of the true appearance of Xuanwu. I have only seen portraits of Xuanwu's original form on scrolls That's all.

Ling Zhao squeezed my hand and said, "Go in and have a look."

I thought to myself: staying where I am will surely kill me, so I might as well give it a go.So she held him back and entered the temple with him.

The temple is very weird. From the outside, it is clear that there are no people, but after entering, you can see groups of waitresses rushing past the temple holding trays full of delicious food and wine, but in a flash, it turns into a wisp of cloud and mist. go.

Ling Zhao and I walked around the temple, climbed to the top floor, and looked down from a height. The houses were row upon row, endless, the streets were crowded with people, and the shouts drifted away halfway up the mountain. I couldn’t really hear them. I only knew that it was noisy and lively. .

I looked at the gray robes of the subjects in the territory, and wondered: "This... is indeed the costume of the Xuanwu Realm."

Ling Zhao looked around indifferently after seeing the familiar clothes, and suddenly he tugged at my hand, signaling: "There is someone."

"Where?" I followed his line of sight and saw a man sitting at the top of the temple. He was holding a jug in his hand, and a spear was standing beside him. His gray robe was flying in the wind, looking lonely and elegant. distant.

Ever since we entered this strange temple, all the people who appeared would turn into flying smoke in a blink of an eye, but the person in front of him was not. , slowly swallowed the sip of wine, and the liquid slid down his chin to his throat.

Who is he?
