[Chapter 4354 Hercules]

child came with a kettle of boiling water, squatted down, and looked for ants, but he couldn’t find them after a while. He heard his mother’s call from behind, and he answered and poured the kettle.
The boiling water flowed along the cracks in the floor, and for Lu Yin, it was a torrent of water, and it was a boiling hot flood.
He frantically climbed out of the crack and crawled towards the raised floor. Soon, he was surrounded by boiling water. He could only stand on the highest point of a floor tile and wait for the boiling water to slowly cool down before he could swim away.
This is the fate of being an ant. Although he has the ability and courage to carry a thousand-pound burden, the gap with a child is so big that it is difficult to make up, just like the gap between Lu Yin and the unknown. It seems that he has the strength to fight against the strong who conform to the two laws, but the unknown is far more than that.
Where is this? A corner of Xiangcheng? If he wants to leave, he must touch the gate of Xiangcheng.
And if he wants to master this Xiangcheng, he has no idea how to do it. At least, an ant can’t do it.
But if the ant can’t do it, what should he do?
Lu Yin looked to both sides. Besides himself, there must be other creatures that entered Xiangcheng and failed to leave. Snails, turtles, ants, could they all be creatures?
Countless huge water drops fell. Passersby stepped on the boiling water and walked away cursing. Lu Yin was soaked by the water drops.
Where did these people come from? Have they always lived in Xiangcheng? Or is it a continuous cycle like the world in the monument?
Hearing the noise in his ears, this perspective is not the first time to see the street. When he went to Hanxian Sect to participate in the Tianwaitian Trial, he turned into a grasshopper jumping on the street and died many times. From the perspective of a grasshopper, he experienced the hustle and bustle of people and was trampled to death again and again.
But that time, he was actually facing the same person, the ancestor of Hanxian Sect, Bai Wangyuan. Bai Wangyuan used the Tianwaitian Trial to reflect his invincible mark on all the practitioners who participated in the last step of the Tianwaitian Trial. Anyone who could reach that step was not an ordinary person. What Bai Wangyuan wanted was for them to be afraid, to be trampled to death again and again, and finally to bow their heads in front of him.
That time, Lu Yin was able to break the situation by relying on the ancestor’s sutra.
This time was different. This was the manifestation of Xiangcheng’s inner thoughts for creatures. It was not for deterrence, but to let creatures see themselves clearly. Lu Yin didn’t know what else it was. But it was really terrifying that Xiangcheng could do this. It was equivalent to making the cultivation of the strong who conformed to the two laws of the universe completely useless. This was the true power of the Zhenqi Zhuobao.
If he was trampled to death, would he really die here? Lu Yin was not sure. Che’s words might not be true. Kangtian Yongsheng’s cultivation was too weak and could not represent him, but he didn’t want to try. Finally
, the boiled water cooled down. Lu Yin hurriedly swam over, then walked along the cracks in the floor tiles to the center of the street and looked into the distance. He was looking for the city gate. He
couldn’t see it. A city was very big for people, not to mention ants.
He could listen even if he couldn’t find it.
Thinking of this, he approached the vendor and waited quietly. The vendor would inevitably mention the city gate when communicating with pedestrians.
So, next, Lu Yin stayed in the cracks in the floor tiles next to the vendor and waited quietly.
One day after another, no one knew how much time had passed. One day, the sun was setting in the west, and the shadows on the ground were twisting. Lu Yin glanced at it and thought it was the wind blowing the leaves, so he didn’t care. Then the shadows twisted more and more frequently, and more and more–enchantingly.
He turned his head and looked at the wall. The twisting shadow came from a green leaf. When Lu Yin looked over, the green leaf twisted more exaggeratedly, like crazy.
This is a creature for sure.
But, how can a creature turn into this kind of green leaf? This is terrifying. If so, the next time he comes in and becomes a green leaf fixed in one place, how can he leave?
The first thing Lu Yin thought of was whether it was a trap set for him by Che.
The green leaf twisted wildly, almost tearing its body apart. It was saying hello to Lu Yin.
Lu Yin hesitated for a moment, climbed up the wall, and then climbed not far from the green leaf.
“It’s from outside, isn’t it?”
“Yes.”
“I knew it, great, please save me, I’m stuck here, that creature has some problem and stuck a bamboo in my body, so I can’t move.”
“You could move before?”
“Yes.”
“Isn’t it a leaf? Even if it can move, it must be because of the wind.”
“No, I can move by myself. Although it’s a leaf, it can move. It seems that you are new here. Let me tell you, I have also seen a chair move by itself, which scared those creatures to flee frantically, saying that it was haunted, but the chair was burned in the end, pitiful.”
Lu Yin understood. It seems that no matter what you become after entering Xiangcheng, you can move. Xiangcheng is not a dead place. There will always be a glimmer of hope, even if you become a chair.
Wait, what can become a chair? Whose inner appearance is a chair?
“Please save me, I’ve been trapped here for too long. Although time has passed in this strange place, my state remains unchanged. I’m not hungry, thirsty, and I don’t have the signs of decay that I felt in my body before.”
“What’s wrong with these people?”
“Human? You mean this kind of creature? How do you know they are called people? Do you know them?”
“I’m asking you, if you want to get out, just behave yourself.” “
Okay, okay, okay, I get it. You’re asking about these people, right? Is there something wrong with them?”
“Have they changed?”
“What do you mean?” “
Grow old or die.”
“Yes.”
“Are you sure?”
“Sure, because I’ve become this small vendor’s heirloom. It was his grandfather’s great-grandfather who fixed me here.”
It sounded so sad, and Lu Yin sympathized with him. This place looked like a normal world, and these people should be real: “How did you get in?”
“I don’t know. I turned into a leaf when I woke up.”
“Did Che bring you in? Or did you find this city by yourself?”
“I really don’t know, please, save me, even just let me go, I really don’t want to be fixed here, in fact, I envy that chair. If I had known this, it would be better to be burned than to stay here forever.”
“Are there other creatures here besides you?”
“Many, but I can’t see them since I was fixed here. I can recognize you because it is impossible for an ant to stay here for such a long time without moving. It’s not normal, so I guess you should be transformed from some creature.”
Lu Yin looked at Lv Ye: “Some creature? It seems that you know more than one kind of creature coming in.”
“I know, and we talked about it, but no one can see it since I was fixed here.” Ye Zi said sadly.
This leaf has talked about many creatures, but it should not have encountered humans, otherwise it is impossible that it does not know the name of humans, or it is impossible that it has not encountered creatures that know human civilization.
Che said that he threw many creatures in to try, and perhaps the biological civilization to which this leaf belongs is one of them.
For Che, it is just an attempt, but for this leaf, it is a permanent torture.
Lu Yin will not forget that Che is also an existence that has destroyed the civilization of the universe. Don’t look at his politeness. He also said that he would return Xiangcheng, but that does not mean that he is kind.
There is no absolutely kind creature in the universe.
Thinking of this, Lu Yin suddenly thought of the owner of Yi Tianque, the existence that yearns for truth, goodness and beauty. Will it be kind?
Without thinking too much, Lu Yin did not rush to save Ye Zi. He could still hear the conversation between the vendors here. Wait, wait to determine the direction.
“By the way, do you know which direction the city gate is?”
“It seems.”
“Okay.” Lu Yin interrupted, it seems? This won’t do. With the body of an ant, running so far to find the city gate, if you find the wrong one, you will have to cross the city. There are countless dangers to encounter, and it will also waste a lot of time. It’s better to listen to it. During
this period, he was not idle. He started to chew bamboo. If the bamboo broke, he could let the leaf go. The leaf said a lot of things. He couldn’t take the leaf away. An ant carrying the leaf would be too big a target, so let it drift with the wind. Bamboo
is not easy to chew. It took Lu Yin more than ten days to chew half of it.
Continue.
A few days later, there were fires everywhere at night, and many people ran around as if chasing something.
Lu Yin looked at a slipper jumping wildly on the street and fell into deep thought for a long time.
“It’s definitely not going to run away. It’s going to be burned again.” The leaf said.
Lu Yin found that this Xiangcheng was too scary. There were creatures that turned into slippers. What kind of personality did they have? What species?
He was actually a little panicked. The bamboo broke
with a click
and fell to the ground. In the air, the leaf got rid of the bamboo. It happened that a gust of wind blew and blew it away.
It was ecstatic: “Thank you, thank you.”
Watching the leaves being swept up to the sky by the strong wind, Lu Yin didn’t know what its fate would be, so he just had to wait.
Another half a month later, Lu Yin heard the answer he wanted, the city gate, go right, it’s at the end of this street.
He ran along the cracks in the corners of the wall for more than ten days, and finally saw the city gate, and continued.
Outside Xiangcheng, Lu Yin appeared, facing the curious eyes of Master Qingcao and Kangtian Yongsheng.
“How is it?” Even Master Qingcao was curious about what Lu Yin had become.
Lu Yin was very calm: “Hercules.”
Master Qingcao: “?”
“It’s an ant.”
Master Qingcao was speechless. Who could have thought of this, but it turned out to be an ant. After thinking about it, it was in line with it.
“Better than my snail.” Kangtian Yongsheng said.
Lu Yin glanced at it. It was lucky that this guy was not trampled to death, but he was almost trampled to death.
Compared with snails, ants have much stronger survival ability, and they are small targets and run fast.
“Next, we’ll wait for Ba Yue.” Master Qingcao said.
Lu Yin asked how much time had passed, and found that the time in Xiangcheng flowed at the same speed as the outside world.
He didn’t know what Ba Yue had become.
Time passed day by day, and two years passed in the blink of an eye. Ba Yue still hadn’t come out, so he couldn’t be dead.
Lu Yin had brought Master Qingcao and Kangtian Yongsheng back to the Three Universes a year ago. God knows how long Ba Yue will be trapped in there, and Ye Zi was trapped for a long, long time, and several generations had died, at least hundreds of years.
He didn’t ask what the average lifespan of people in Xiangcheng was. If we calculate it as a hundred years, it would be hundreds of years.
