Chapter 1625 – Dynasty Reappears
Between the flying dust, Lin Qiye slowly opened his eyes.
He looked at the yellowish sky in front of him, and his entire thoughts felt like they had come to a standstill for a long time before he struggled to stand up, but as soon as he lifted his head, a strong sense of dizziness filled his mind.
”Vom-!!!”
Lin Qiye violently bent down and dry-heaved.
Since he was a child, Lin Qiye had never gotten dizzy from anything, cars, airplanes, and boats, but this time, he kind of knew what it meant to be so dizzy that he was about to vomit his stomach out, and the whole person lay on the ground for more than ten minutes before he could barely stand up.
”What the hell is this place ……” Lin Qiye’s eyes looked around, in addition to the deserted and uninhabited yellow earth, there is nothing else as far as the eye can see.
Wasn’t he originally on a misty exploration ship?
Lin Qiye clearly remembered that before he lost consciousness, he was on that exploration ship returning to Da Xia, and he heard three bells ringing from the sea before a burst of light suddenly erupted from his chest ……
Lin Qiye looked down at his chest as if he had thought of something, the original three marks were now only two, and one looked like it had been wiped off, so faint that it was barely noticeable.
”[Holy Covenant]?” Lin Qiye’s brows tightly furrowed.
According to Charles, a [holy covenant] is a sacred and unbreakable oath, and once it is agreed upon, it will inevitably happen …… But this disappearing [holy covenant], what exactly did it do? Why had it moved itself from the exploration ship?
One question after another surfaced in Lin Qiye’s mind, he circled around, within a few kilometers, he couldn’t see any traces of human existence at all, this place was like a desert fringe region, even the vegetation was rarely seen.
Lin Qiye climbed up a small dirt slope and looked into the distance, when he suddenly saw a pair of legs stuck upside down in the middle of the earth on the side of a huge boulder that was roughly a few hundred meters away from him.
Lin Qiye narrowed his eyes and gazed for a moment before the corner of his mouth jerked!
”Wu Quan!”
Without saying a word, Lin Qiye rushed straight to the boulder and shattered it with his bare hands, only to see a teenager unconscious and covered in blood in the middle of the boulder gap.
Lin Qiye first probed his breathing, the good news is that he is still alive, the bad news is that …… he doesn’t seem to be able to live much longer.
How could this be?
Lin Qiye’s gaze swept over his body, Wu Quan’s body surface was littered with strange injuries, as if he had been slashed by something, and several of the bones in his body were broken, his entire body was limp and his breath was like a swimmer.
”Where did this injury come from?” Lin Qiye looked at his own body before realizing that there seemed to be some bruises on his own body surface as well, only that his physical body was too strong, plus he had suddenly come to such a strange place to distract his mind, and didn’t even notice that he was injured.
Both himself and Wu Quan had injuries on their bodies …… Could it be that the process of that [holy covenant] sending them here had negatively affected their bodies?
Lin Qiye didn’t have time to think about it, he directly picked Wu Quan up on his back, picked a direction, and his figure began to run wildly across this barren land.
With such a serious injury, Wu Quan might not be able to last long, he had to leave this place as soon as possible and find a place to treat Wu Quan.
At full speed, the surrounding earth was frantically retreating, and it wasn’t long before a black dot appeared in front of Lin Qiye’s eyes, resembling some sort of low building.
Once he got closer, Lin Qiye realized that they were several short earthen houses with no windows on the exterior and only a tiny door, the houses were surrounded by broken wood and stood tall in the flying yellow sand.
”Someone.” Lin Qiye’s eyes lit up as he lightly landed in front of one of the earthen houses and knocked on the wooden door.
Duk duk duk duk-
A moment later, a figure slowly walked out from behind the door.
”Who are you looking for?” This was a middle-aged man who appeared to be in his forties or fifties, wearing rough linen clothes, with dark and rough skin, arching his back, and less than Lin Qiye’s chest in height, with a malnourished appearance.
”Hello, may I ask what place is this?”
”Falling Soul Mound.”
”Eh …… which city is it?”
”City?” The man froze, “Oh, West City is ten miles east of here.”
”…… I mean, what province is this? Which city?”
The man suspiciously sized him up for a few moments, “What province or city …… is fifteen miles north of here is Xue County, if you want to find someone to inquire about something, just go there directly.”
”Xue County ……”
Lin Qiye muttered the name, and before he could return to his senses, the man closed the door of the house with one hand.
Hearing the word Xue County and combining it with the man’s clothes and building just now, Lin Qiye’s mind, a certain idea suddenly flashed through, and was quickly dismissed by him ……
It should be, it can’t be, right?
Lin Qiye shook his head, found the north, and quickly sped away, fifteen miles might be far for an unusual person? 粤制咭苟裕簿褪瞧痰墓Ψ颉?
Amidst the flying dust and sand, Lin Qiye’s footsteps stepped onto a mound, and his mouth couldn’t help but open wide as he looked at the ancient city wall standing on the yellow soil in the distance ……
Not far from Lin Qiye, there was a city wall made of earth and stone, the surface was uneven, an archway opened from the center of the city wall, many people dressed in rough linen clothes lined up in two rows, one after another into the city, which could occasionally see a few figures dressed in brightly colored silk and silk, fast horse whip rushed into it.
Above the city wall, dozens of soldiers in armor looked down on the pedestrians below, as if they were on guard for something.
”I’m not dreaming?!” Lin Qiye muttered.
The scene in front of him completely exceeded Lin Qiye’s cognition, although modern times have left behind many ancient city attractions and shadow cities, most of them are instantly recognizable as rebuilt and false …… But the city in front of him is clearly a real ancient city!
Combined with what the man had just said, that bold idea once again surfaced in Lin Qiye’s mind!
That [holy covenant], not only did it allow him to cross space, it also crossed the long river of time?
How was this possible?
Even King Face, who was the God of Time, could only perform a short period of backtracking, while what dynasty was this city in front of Lin Qiye today? Han? Tang? Song?
Regardless of which dynasty, the gap between it and Lin Qiye’s era is more than a thousand years, and even if you don’t take into account the side effects produced by karmic shifts, Wang Mian estimates that it will take more than a hundred years of his life span to come here …… Such an ancient time is not something that anyone can arrive at.
And that [holy covenant], it sent both him and Wu Quan to this time?
But what was a bit strange was that the people here, whether they were the people or the officials and soldiers, all looked a bit haggard, with a pair of large dark circles under their eyes, and their complexion was extremely poor, and they didn’t know if it was due to malnutrition.
Lin Qiye carried Wuquan on his back and quickly walked down the hill, stopping a man who looked like a traveling merchant and asked:
”Hello, may I ask which dynasty is it today?”
”?” The traveling merchant gave him an odd look, “The sixth year of Yuan Hun.”
”Yuanhari?” Lin Qiye’s face was still blank, he wasn’t good at this aspect of history and when he heard this year, he still didn’t know which dynasty it was for a moment.
Just as he wanted to ask something more, a voice came from the distance:
”The Champion Marquis has entered the city!!!”
