"The loan I am talking about is a temporary loan to you, and you must return it to me." The system added.
"Okay, then you can lend it to me first." Chen Ze agreed. Although he didn't know if it was a temporary loan, Chen Ze was already very happy.
In this way, I have a treasure, which is better than anything else.
Chen Ze put the Yin Yang Mirror in his arms, then supported the fat man and walked towards the village.
The fat man didn't say a word, just carried Chen Ze on his back in a sullen voice.
Chen Ze took the opportunity to peek at the Yin Yang Mirror. It didn't matter. Chen Ze was shocked.
This yin-yang mirror actually absorbs the spiritual power of the wandering souls around it. If Chen Ze's prediction is correct, it is estimated that after a while, this yin-yang mirror will turn into a yin-yang fish.
"Damn it, system, does this thing swallow souls?" Chen Ze hurriedly contacted the system.
"Guess!" The system answered incorrectly.
"Go away, tell me, I won't tell you the secret of Yin Yang Mirror if you don't tell me." Chen Ze threatened.
"If you don't say it, don't say it." The system was also angry.
Chen Ze: "……."
"Okay, this system won't tease you anymore. Your Yin-Yang Mirror is not that scary. It only absorbs the unique spiritual power of this world.
Because this is ancient times and there are no heavenly materials or earthly treasures, the Yin Yang Mirror needs to absorb enough spiritual power to increase its own cultivation. ”
After listening to the system's explanation, Chen Ze breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, these corpses had been dead for a long time and their spiritual power had been severely lost. Otherwise, Chen Ze would have been unable to do anything with the Yin-Yang Mirror.
However, Chen Ze discovered that in addition to absorbing the spiritual power of wandering souls, the Yin-Yang Mirror seemed to be able to absorb the rest of the energy.
Of course, the premise is that it must be approved by the Yin-Yang Mirror, otherwise it will be useless even if the Yin-Yang Mirror absorbs the spiritual power.
"Little fat man, stop and take a rest."
After a while, Chen Ze asked the fat man to put him down.
It's so quiet here, so eerily quiet that even the chirping of insects has disappeared.
"Chenzi, why don't you shout? How dare you shout in this damn place!" the fat man said worriedly.
"Shh, don't make any noise, I think I heard someone calling me." Chen Ze made a gesture of silence and looked forward. "Ah!"
What Chen Ze saw was a pair of blood-red eyes.
“Ah….”
At the same time, the fat man next to Chen Ze also screamed.
Chen Ze turned around and saw that the fat man on his right was twitching all over, obviously going crazy.
"Are you okay?"
Chen Ze hurriedly helped the fat man sit on the ground.
The fat man shook his head and said he was fine, but he kept staring at the corpse in the distance.
Chen Ze followed the fat man's gaze and found that there was indeed a skeleton lying there.
"Fat man, don't be afraid. Look, their bones are all fresh." Chen Ze was a little helpless at the fat man's reaction, but still comforted him patiently.
"No, I'm not afraid of their corpses. Just now their eyes suddenly turned scarlet, and then they rushed towards me. It scared me to death." The fat man said, patting his chest.
"You are indeed quite stupid." Chen Ze glanced at the fat man with disdain, and then continued to look at the withered bones.
This withered skeleton is about two meters high and forty to fifty centimeters wide.
The withered bones were covered with dust, and looking from top to bottom, all the hands and feet of the withered bones were broken, leaving only the head intact.
Chen Ze observed the bone structure of the skeleton and found that its joints had traces of scratches by sharp claws.
This proves that the skeleton was attacked during its lifetime, and it must have been a beast that attacked it.
"What kind of animal did this?" Chen Ze raised his head and looked at the skeleton and asked.
"Wild wolf!" the system replied.
Wild wolves are the most common mammals in China, but they are also the most ferocious.
According to "Biography of Mountains and Seas", wild wolves make a living by eating carrion. Because it likes to hunt in groups, it leads a pack of wild wolves every time it hunts.
The animals that wild wolves hunt are mostly gentle animals such as antelopes and deer.
And these skeletons are intact, which proves that it has been attacked by wolves, and there are quite a few of them.
Chen Ze knelt down and looked at the ground. The ground was uneven and looked like there were traces of a battle.
Chen Ze stood up and continued walking along the bumpy road.
Not long after, Chen Ze encountered several more skeletons with broken bones, but they were still intact, and there were many places where bones were exposed.
A path leading to the village was led to the end by Chen Ze.
At the entrance of the village, there is a stone tablet, which reads: "Heishui Town, Beiling County".
"This is Blackwater Town? The name is so tacky. No wonder there is no cultural heritage around here." Chen Ze muttered.
"Host, you know Hammer. This is Blackwater Town, the town with the oldest history in Beiling County. If you don't believe me, just look at the inscriptions on the stone tablet!" the system said.
"Engraving? What is it?" Hearing this, Chen Ze lowered his head and glanced at the inscription on the stone tablet.
I saw dragons and phoenixes carved on it, which were vigorous and powerful, and the brush strokes were like dragons and snakes, which looked quite impressive.
Chen Zenian said: "There is the Heishui River three thousand miles away in the south, with millions of corpses floating on the river. Heishui Town is the burial place for the dead."
"Um...System, how did you get this engraving?"
Chen Ze was a little confused. Could it be that the system changed the name of Heishui Town?
"This is the original name of Blackwater Town. I just changed the font."
"Then you might as well call it 'Blackwater Cemetery'. "Chen Ze complained.
"You think beautifully!"
System: "Host, do you want to continue to go forward?"
Chen Ze: "Let's go! But give me some guidance on how to find the treasure location here faster."
System: "Host, follow my pace."
As soon as the system finished speaking, Chen Ze felt that his feet were empty and his whole body was sinking downwards. However, Chen Ze stabilized his figure in an instant. Chen Ze found that he was actually falling.
"Help!"
This was the second time Chen Ze was in danger, so Chen Ze immediately asked for help from the system.
System: "Host, please calm down, the system will enable the transmission function."
Chen Ze was stunned, "Your sister, if you had told me earlier, you would have given me a false alarm!" System: "No explanation is needed in this case."
Chen Ze curled his lips, then closed his eyes and waited for the system to activate the transmission function.
"Ding!"
With a soft beep from the system, Chen Ze felt his feet on the ground. When he opened his eyes, he saw a city.
Not only that, there were various buildings within Chen Ze's sight, and these buildings were all built with blue bricks.
Three thick stone pillars were erected at the city gate. In the center of these three stone pillars, there was a huge plaque with four large gilt characters - Tianfu County.
"This...is this the treasure map that is one of the treasures I am looking for?" Chen Ze was a little confused. Logically speaking, shouldn't this kind of treasure map be stored in a museum, library or safe?
When Chen Ze walked into this city, there was a constant stream of people coming and going on the streets. There were stalls selling things, people buying vegetables, and people going to the market.
However, there were no beggars, which surprised Chen Ze a little.
Chen Ze walked for a long time and finally knew what these people were doing.
Chen Ze discovered a strange thing, that is, they were not wearing clothes.
Chen Ze walked into a restaurant and found that all the people eating inside were topless.
Chen Ze looked around and found no one wearing clothes. There was only a table of middle-aged people wearing long robes and mandarin jackets eating and drinking tea.
When these people saw Chen Ze, a young boy, barging in, they all frowned and looked at Chen Ze.
Chen Ze also noticed these people staring at him maliciously.
Chen Ze pretended to look at the scenery. (End of chapter)
