Chapter 58 Climbing the Ancient Road
The west of the capital of Xianyang.
The pit. Endless sand and dust piled up inside.
They reflect an inexplicable yellow, dim yellow. Maybe they also have a story of ancient vicissitudes...
I don't know where the wind blew from. The wind is getting stronger and stronger, as if to roll the endless thick sand and dust into the sky.
Suddenly, a blood light flashed on the periphery of the pit. This, this?
With the flash of blood in the pan, Taoist figures appeared on the periphery of the pit. There were a total of 50 people, all of whom were men. It seemed to be a sergeant of Daqin?
But seeing that these 50 people are wearing the unified black military uniforms of the Great Qin Dynasty, the only thing that is different from ordinary sergeants is that these military uniforms are embroidered with different patterns.
There are blood five-star maps, as well as dark five-star maps, yellow five-star maps... I guess they are all from the First Emperor of the Great Qin Dynasty.
And the person standing in the front was actually embroidered with a bloody six-pointed picture on his clothes.
"General! Is it time to open the pit today? It seems that the man embroidered with a bloody six-pointed map is a general, and he is also a 'general' of the First Emperor's army.
"Hmm! Today is the time to open the pit once in ten years!" The general nodded and replied, "Now I order that everyone will kneel down three times to worship the pit!"
The general knelt down on the ground with a 'dong' first, and then kowtowed three times.
Behind the general, forty-nine people were puzzled and knocked on the yellow sand? Still knocking three times?
But the military order is like a mountain, and the order is like the ground! Forty-nine people were puzzled, but they also knelt on the ground in an instant and kowtowed three times.
"Dong--"Dong--"Dong--"
A neat and uniform voice like a thousand people kowtowing together seems to show that they are all elites of the First Emperor's soldiers, and their cultivation is not weak.
"Ring up!" After everyone kowtowed three times, the general gave the order.
Together with the general, these 50 people stood up at the same time.
"General, when we became the First Emperor's soldiers, they said that the First Emperor's soldiers only knelt down, even the emperor could not let me kneel down! Why did the general ask me to kneel down and worship here, this... this yellow sand?" A soldier boldly asked everyone's doubts.
"They should worship! Be Wanbai!" The general replied solemnly.
"Yes! General, I'll keep it in mind!" All the soldiers are promise.
"General, this, this yellow sand is..., is it really yellow sand?"
"Don't ask so much. There are some things you shouldn't know. If you can still come back this time, I will naturally tell you to wait." When the general said this, his tone was also much heavier.
"There are forty-nine of you in total. I hope it will be so much when you come back!"
"Yes! We will live up to the hope of the general!" The soldiers said loudly.
"General! Dare to ask, why are there only forty-nine people at a time? Don't we wait for more? The man standing at the end of the soldiers asked loudly.
The general did not answer immediately this time, but stared at the thick yellow sand in the pit. Suddenly, the general's profound cultivation made the 49 soldiers behind him feel a sadness rising from the bottom of their hearts.
At this time, the wind from nowhere is getting bigger and bigger, almost the same as the hurricane.
"Hey--" The general sighed and said an inexplicable sentence.
"There was a saying in ancient times, the road fifty, Tianyan forty-nine, one of the people escape! We are not that 'human'! If you go beyond the road, you will be punished by God; if you add one, you will be punished by 'people'!"
"The pit is opened every ten years, and there can only be forty-nine people, whether it is our first emperor's lineage or their two practitioners! Remember! Remember!"
Forty-nine soldiers are inexplicable.
"General, what would happen if we added one person and became fifty this time?"
"Above the ancient road, wipe out all of them!"
"..."
East of Xianyang, the capital of the country. The sacred altar of heaven.
"General, this group of 100,000 Qin people have entered the Temple of Heaven!"
"Good! Open the Temple of Heaven and send me the people of the Qin Dynasty to be immortals!"
"Yes!"
With the opening of the Temple of Heaven, a tragic breath instantly emerged from unknown time and space, and then directly enveloped the 100,000 Qin people who had entered the Temple of Heaven.
This tragic breath seems to come from hell, with bloodthirsty horror and soul-like strangeness. Is this the breath of fairyland? Isn't the fairyland peaceful?
In the Temple of Heaven, 100,000 Qin people, who were full of happiness and infinite longing, showed a trace of doubt...
The fierce breath enveloped the Temple of Heaven in an instant. The next moment, everyone in the Temple of Heaven disappeared. They were all sent by this great power to the legendary beautiful and happy 'wonderland'...
"Gun up to salute!" The general in charge of the Temple of Heaven shouted loudly.
The twelve Qin soldiers and tens of thousands of thousands of soldiers all raised the Qin spears in their hands, as if they were saying goodbye, and seemed to be blessing...
"The next batch!"
"Yes! General, the next batch!"
......
West of Xianyang, the national capital. Pit.
The endless yellow sand was swept up by the inexplicable hurricane, but under the power of this inexplicable hurricane, the pit moved.
The yellow sand is constantly rising to the sky, one after another, slanting and slanting, spreading from the pit to the sky.
In a short time, a long 'ancient road to the sky' was formed. The ancient road to heaven is covered with ancient yellow, and the endless vicissitudes of life permeate it. It seems that it is silently telling a song and crying legend...
The road is long and long, and the road of yellow sand is to reach the sky!
On this 'Ancient Road to the Heaven', there may have been countless ancients. Among them, there are amazing geniuses and talents who will never return. Today--
Another 49 latecomers set foot on this 'Ancient Road to the Sky'. What is the end of this road? Is it hope or despair? Is it heaven or hell?
"Okay, the ancient road to heaven has been completed! Go ahead! I wish you a happy return soon! You are all the hope of my Chinese and Kyushu!" The general waved his hand and strengthened his confidence to say goodbye to the forty-nine people.
"Go ahead! Go and pursue it--"
"Yes! General! I will live up to the hope of the general!" Forty-nine latecomers embarked on the 'Ancient Road to the Sky' with excitement on their faces. Suddenly--
It seems that there is a latecomer on the 'Ancient Road to the Sky'. At the end of the sky road, a cross-border door was opened in an instant.
This is a dim door, which is shining with a faint yellow light. This little yellow light makes people feel a little angry. It seems that if the wind is a little strong at this time, it can be extinguished! The only reassuring thing is that it also has ancient vicissitudes, just like this 'old road to heaven'.
"Roar--" A horrible inexplicable roar suddenly came from behind the old door, which shocked the forty-nine latecomers who 'step on the yellow sand and climbed to the sky' at the same time...
No one knows, and even the well-cultivated general doesn't know that with the yellow sand sweeping the sky, under this pit, there is also a young man who is sleeping in the dead silence, who is also wrapped in the yellow sand and is swept into this 'Ancient Road to the Sky'...
"In ancient times, there are words, the road is fifty, the sky is forty-nine, and people escape one of them! We are not that 'human'! If you go beyond the road, you will be punished by God; if you add one, you will be punished by 'people'!"
"General, what would happen if we added one person and became fifty this time?"
"Above the ancient road, wipe out all of them!"
"..."
