Among the flying dust, Lin Qiye slowly opened his eyes.
He looked at the yellow sky in front of him, and his thoughts seemed to have stagnated. After a long time, he struggled to stand up, but as soon as he raised his head, a strong feeling of dizziness filled his mind.
"vomit--!!!"
Lin Qiye suddenly leaned over and retched.
Ever since he was young, Dalin Qiye had never fainted from anything, including cars, planes, and boats. But this time he knew what it meant to be so dizzy that he almost vomited his stomach out. He lay on the ground for more than ten minutes before he finally recovered.
I could barely stand up.
"What the hell is this place..." Lin Qiye looked around, seeing nothing but the deserted loess.
Wasn't he originally on a foggy exploration ship?
Lin Qiye clearly remembered that before he lost consciousness, on the exploration ship returning to Daxia, he heard three bells on the sea, and then a burst of light suddenly burst out of his chest...
Lin Qiye seemed to have thought of something. He lowered his head and looked at his chest. There were only two marks left out of the three marks, and one seemed to have been wiped away. It was so faded that it was almost invisible.
"[Covenant]?" Lin Qiye frowned tightly.
According to Charles, [Covenant] is a sacred oath that cannot be broken. Once agreed, it will inevitably happen... But what did this disappeared [Covenant] do? Why did he move from the exploration ship to here?
?
One question after another appeared in Lin Qiye's mind. He walked around and saw no trace of human existence within a few kilometers. It was like an area on the edge of a desert, with very little vegetation.
Lin Qiye climbed up a small slope and looked into the distance. Suddenly he saw a pair of legs stuck upside down in the earth beside a boulder about a few hundred meters away.
Lin Qiye squinted his eyes for a moment, then twitched the corner of his mouth!
"Uquan!"
Without saying a word, Lin Qiye rushed directly to the boulder and shattered it with his bare hands. He saw a young man unconscious in the gap between the boulders, covered in blood.
Lin Qiye first checked his breathing. The good news was that he was still alive, but the bad news was...it seemed like he wouldn't live much longer.
how so?
Lin Qiye's eyes swept over his body. Wuquan's body was covered with strange scars, as if he had been scratched by something, and several bones on his body were broken. His whole body was as soft as a gossamer.
"Where did this injury come from?" Lin Qiye looked at his body and found that his body surface seemed to have some bruises, but his body was too strong, and he suddenly came to such a strange place.
He was so distracted that he didn't even notice that he was injured.
Both he and Wu Quan were injured... Could it be that the [Covenant] had a negative impact on their bodies when they were sent here?
Lin Qiye didn't have time to think too much. He directly carried Wu Quan on his back, picked a direction, and began to run wildly on this barren land.
With such a serious injury, Wu Quan may not be able to hold on for long. He must leave here as soon as possible and find a place to treat Wu Quan.
At full speed, the surrounding ground was retreating crazily. Not long after, black dots appeared in front of Lin Qiye's eyes, like some kind of low building.
After getting closer, Lin Qiye discovered that they were several short mud houses with no windows on the outside and only a small door. The houses were surrounded by broken wood and stood firm in the flying yellow sand.
"There is someone." Lin Qiye's eyes lit up. He landed lightly in front of one of the earthen houses and knocked on the wooden door.
Tuk-tuk-tuk——
After a while, a figure slowly walked out from behind the door.
"Who are you looking for?" This is a middle-aged man who looks to be in his forties or fifties. He is wearing coarse linen clothes, has dark and rough skin, his back is hunched, and his height is less than Lin Qiye's chest. He looks malnourished.
"Hello, may I ask where this place is?"
"Lost Soul Hill."
"Um...which city is it?"
"City?" The man was stunned, "Oh, the West City is ten miles east of here."
"...I mean, which province is this? Which city?"
The man looked at him suspiciously, "What province or city... Fifteen miles north of here is Xue County. If you want to find someone to inquire about something, just go there."
"Xue County..."
Lin Qiye murmured the name. Before he could recover, the man closed the door.
Hearing the word Xue County, combined with the man's clothes and architecture, a certain idea suddenly flashed through Lin Qiye's mind, but he quickly rejected it...
It should be impossible, right?
Lin Qiye shook his head, found the north, and sped away quickly. Fifteen miles might be a long way for ordinary people, but for Lin Qiye, it only took a moment.
In the flying dust, Lin Qiye stepped onto a mound. He looked at the ancient city wall standing on the loess in the distance, and his mouth opened uncontrollably...
Not far from Lin Qiye, there is a city wall made of earth and rocks. The surface is uneven. An arch opens from the center of the city wall. Many people wearing coarse linen linen line up in two rows and walk into the city one after another. Occasionally, some people can
Seeing several figures wearing bright silks and satins, they rushed into them with their whips raised.
On top of the city wall, dozens of soldiers in armor looked down at the pedestrians below, as if they were on guard for something.
"I'm not dreaming?!" Lin Qiye muttered to himself.
The scene in front of him was completely beyond Lin Qiye's understanding. Although many ancient city attractions and movie theaters have been left in modern times, most of them can be seen at a glance as fake after reconstruction... But the city in front of him is clearly a
A real ancient city!
Combined with what the man just said, that bold idea came to Lin Qiye's mind again!
That [Covenant] not only allowed him to span space, but also spanned the long river of time?
How is this possible?
Even Wang Mian, the god of time, can only look back for a short period of time. What dynasty is the city in front of Lin Qiye now? Han? Tang? Song?
No matter which dynasty it is, the gap between it and Lin Qiye's era is more than a thousand years. Even if the side effects of causal changes are not taken into account, it is estimated that Wang Mian would have spent more than a hundred years of life to come here... Such an ancient time
, not everyone can reach it.
And that [Holy Covenant] sent him and Wu Quan to this era?
But something strange is that the people here, whether they are civilians or officers and soldiers, all look a little haggard, with a pair of big dark circles under their eyes, and their complexion is extremely poor. I don't know if it is due to malnutrition.
Lin Qiye walked down the hill quickly with Wu Quan on his back, stopped a man who looked like a businessman, and asked:
"Hello, which dynasty is it now?"
"?" Xingshang gave him a strange look, "The sixth year of Yuanshou."
"Yuan Shou?" Lin Qiye's face was still confused. He was not good at history. When he heard this era name, he still didn't know which dynasty it was.
Just when he wanted to ask something more, a voice came from a distance:
