Chapter 419 Thousand Star Ruins(2/2)

Even if it is eroded by wind and water, there should still be some ruins, just like Panlong City back then.
"It is said that after Qianxing City was breached, the Demon Emperor ordered it to be burned to death and demanded that there be 'not a single inch of standing wood' here." Headmaster Shi Er said loudly in the torrential rain, "As a result, all the palace buildings, as well as residential buildings and pig pens, were knocked down.
, no one is spared.”
The wizard boy Taozi suddenly pointed not far away, and He Lingchuan also asked: "What is that?"
In fact, there are still more than a dozen stone houses fifty feet away. They are very wide and very large. They are built with no sense of beauty but are better than solid ones.
There is even a building with only three walls, and the remaining one is air.
It is said to be a house, but it is similar to a warehouse.
"This was built by the business travelers who were passing by. They used local materials. Over time, there are so many of them."
He Lingchuan wondered: "It's not like no one is here."
"The terrain in the mountains is complex, and people often go astray. Once you arrive, you must be safe. There must be a place to shelter from the wind and rain." Master Shi Er ordered the caravan to drive the carriage into several stone houses, arrange the people, and inspect the goods.
Businessmen come and go in pursuit of profits, and even ghost towns can settle down.
There was originally a lot of thatch in the stone house. The doctor in the caravan took out a few pots, put hay and absinthe wormwood in them, lit them, and burned them everywhere. Otherwise, the ground here was damp and there were too many snakes, insects, mosquitoes and ants, and people would go to the grass.
Just sit down and lie down, and within half a cup of tea, you will be covered with red envelopes.
Severe cases may even cause trembling and high fever.
As the smoke became thicker, all kinds of small animals in the stone house scrambled to escape, including a few golden-ringed vipers.
We can only spend the night in the ghost town tonight, and the caravan begins to make rice.
When the water boils, all the grains and sweet potatoes are thrown in. Vegetables and mushrooms will be added later, and the sticky mixed vegetable porridge is ready.
Everyone had been trekking for a day, so they started drinking from thick bowls, adding two steamed buns, and nibbling a few pickles. The rainy night in the wilderness didn't seem so sad anymore.
The time slowly moved towards the latter half of the night, and the wind and rain increased instead of abating. From time to time, lightning illuminated the surrounding areas, followed by long thunder.
Fu Shanyue wrapped his cloak around his head and face and remained motionless for a long time. Others thought he was asleep, but he suddenly sat up:
"somebody is coming."
Sure enough, more than ten figures appeared one after another in the bushes, walking towards the stone houses.
The sentry of the Shimen caravan immediately blew his whistle and called everyone to be alert.
The other side was also a team, consisting of twelve or three knights, a carriage and two monsters. They approached slowly and slowly. One of the knights stepped forward with his whip raised and shouted in front of the Shimen caravan: "Build a car on the barren mountain."
Companion, leave early tomorrow morning!"
This is a term commonly used by travelers in the countryside to show that they are just spending the night and have no ill intentions.
Then the team moved twelve or thirty feet away and occupied two other stone houses.
