Apocalyptic life from scratch

Chapter 880 Epilogue

Everyone seemed to be able to feel the fresh air blowing from that direction.

"Finally home!"

The yellow-haired boy couldn't help shouting, and the others were also cheering in their hearts.What kind of experience is it to finally see the light after traveling through the dark depths of the ground for so long.

And the fastest one was the little fox. When he got here, he could clearly smell his mother's scent. He was sure that her mother was right in front.

"Mother, mother... mother..."

The little fox screamed happily, and rushed out with all fours.

However, when it really turned the corner and the dazzling light was projected on it, its cry stopped abruptly, and it froze in place as if struck by lightning.

The others also ran over after it, but seeing the scene in front of them clearly, the smiles on their faces disappeared immediately.

The front is indeed an exit, that's right, this should be the entrance of a cave, and they can already clearly see the snow-capped scenery outside and the still cloudy sky.

However, the real reason why they couldn't make a sound was because just before the hole, there was a skeleton of a fox lying upside down.

From the color of these bones, it is not difficult to see that it has been dead for many years.

"why is it like this……"

Xue Feifei covered her mouth unbearably.The others also looked away with heavy expressions.

Everyone was still looking forward to the smooth reunion between Ah Wu and his mother, but they didn't expect to see such a cruel scene right after.

"Ugh!"

Kong Zhe sighed softly, patted Ah Wu on the shoulder, and walked over to check the condition of the skeleton.

There were no obvious injuries to other parts of the skeleton, except for the part of the foot bone that was stained black, with a sharp notch on it.

"It's a sign of being bitten by a poisonous snake."

Long came over and confirmed directly after seeing the wound.

"Poisonous snake? How is it possible?"

Ah Wu's voice was obviously crying. He rubbed his red eyes, tried not to let himself cry, looked at Long, and shook his head again and again to retort: ​​"How could my mother be bitten to death by a poisonous snake?"

His mother was the fox god of the previous generation. Even if she gave up the position of fox god, the power of the fox god she possessed was extremely powerful. How could she die from a poisonous snake?
"Under normal circumstances, no, but what if she was already dying?"

Kong Zhe sighed.

When he saw those handwritings before, he felt a little strange. A Wu's mother clearly recorded more words than before, which meant that there was no time, but why did her handwriting become lighter and lighter?

The answer is actually easy to guess: because she is almost out of strength!
Don't look at them arriving here after walking underground for a few hours, but this is because the predecessors showed them the way, which virtually saved them a lot of time.

But Wu's mother, as the pioneer who came here, was surrounded by a completely unfamiliar environment, and everything had to be explored by herself.

According to a rough estimate, she spent at least three months or even more than half a year in the ground. In addition, there is no food source in the ground. I am afraid that when she finally arrives here after a long journey, she will be out of ammunition and food. , even to the point of dying.Under such circumstances, he suddenly encountered a sneak attack by a poisonous snake, and the result can be imagined.

"How...how could..."

Ah Wu's tears finally couldn't hold back and fell down.

It never occurred to her that the dream that her mother had worked hard for all her life was just around the corner, but she fell down at the last step.

From the movement of this skeleton, it can be vaguely seen that she was still desperately crawling outwards until she was about to die, but unfortunately, she still failed to touch the sunlight of the outside world in the end.

"Say goodbye to mother..."

Kong Zhe let the others leave the cave first, while he himself sat down by the entrance of the cave, lit a cigarette, and said softly while scanning the long-lost field scenery.

This is the halfway up a small mountain, and there are no human traces in the vicinity, and even weeds will not grow on this kind of rocky mountain, which perfectly interprets the word desolation.

It is estimated that no one would have imagined that there would be a secret passage leading to another world hidden on this bare hill.

Inside the cave, Ah Wu had already collected the remaining bones of his mother and put them in a sealed clay pot.

He couldn't let his mother's bones stay here. Since his mother's wish was from the outside world, at least in the end, her ashes should be buried in the land of the outside world. This can be regarded as fulfilling her wish indirectly.

"Mother, I'm leaving..."

A Wu knelt at the place where his mother died, talking softly.

There was already a mirror in his hand, which was found under his mother's bones, another eight-foot mirror belonging to one of the eight gods of the fox god.

"Mother, don't worry, I will continue to fulfill your wish... I will live in the human world well, and then record what I see outside, so that everyone in Loki can see..."

Ah Wu stroked the smooth mirror surface and made up his mind.

……

Rocky, the city that never sleeps.

When the darkness passes, a new day arrives.

However, at dawn on this day, when the residents in the city that never sleeps walked out of their houses, they all looked at the center of the city that never sleeps.

It was originally where the Sun Temple was located, but at this moment all the buildings in the entire temple, as well as all the humans belonging to the temple, have disappeared.

Instead, there was another magnificent palace—the Fox God Palace!

Just yesterday, the Fox God Palace finally defeated the Sun God Palace and drove them out of Loki. The news spread throughout Loki in just one day.

At this moment, the people of this small world fell into a state of carnival, and all villages spontaneously held celebrations.

Naturally, the same is true in the city that never sleeps, especially when the Fox God Palace suddenly descended on the city that never sleeps last night, the whole city was boiling.

This palace, which is cited as a holy place in the hearts of most people, finally appeared in the eyes of the public for the first time after thousands of years of hermitage.

All of a sudden, the streets were decorated with lights and festoons, and a large number of people gathered in front of the Fox God Palace to make a pilgrimage, wanting to see the honor of the Fox God.

Of course, the fox god still didn't show up in the end, but the witches rushed out of the fox god's palace together, and distributed all the food stored in the city that never sleeps to the poor.

In addition to the coming of the Fox God Palace, there was another event that made the city that never sleeps boil.

At this moment, on the square of the city that never sleeps, a huge light curtain is projected out of thin air, and it is said that what is projected from the light curtain is the scene of the human world!

Tens of thousands of people gathered here eagerly because of the news.

"Look, it's open!"

At a certain moment, a scene finally appeared in the originally gray and white light curtain.Everyone immediately exclaimed.The first thing that catches the eye is a scene of ice and snow.

"Wow, this, is this the human world?"

"It looks so cold..."

"Don't make noise, just be quiet!"

……

Noisy voices sounded from time to time, and the light curtain in the picture quickly began to move, reflecting more and more scenes.

"Well, everyone... here is, the human world..."

Ah Wu's head suddenly appeared in the camera, he scratched his head stupidly, and explained something in embarrassment.

But then he didn't know what to say, he hurriedly looked to the side, and asked in a low voice, "What should I say next?"

"Relax, just say what you see and feel generously, just like a live broadcast..."

A man's voice from off-camera answers it.

"Live? What's that?"

……

"Huh? Isn't this the child from the Fox God Envoy's family?"

"Yeah, it seems to be called Ah Wu..."

"He actually went to the human world!"

The discussion around was suddenly raised to a higher level because of Ah Wu's appearance.

At this time, Xiao Zuo, who had just become the new Fox God, was standing in front of the wooden railing on the top floor of the Fox God Palace, looking at the bustling scene in the city.

In her hand, she was still holding the eight-foot mirror. At this time, the light and shadow projected from the mirror were completely in sync with the light curtain on the square.

Looking at his younger brother's shy look in the mirror, Xiao Zuo couldn't help twitching his lips.

"grumble!"

Suddenly there was a light sound on the top of her head, Xiao Zuo reached out and touched the white jade weaving crown on her head. At this moment, the pure white crown was shaking restlessly on her head.

"Little guy, do you still want to leave?"

"Chichi..."

"...Then go, don't hesitate..."

Xiao Zuo let out a sigh of relief, reached out and took off the tiara, stroked its edge with his fingers, and then gently threw it forward.

"Loki has regained his calm, and will continue to be so calm in the future, so go, go and bravely pursue the destination you want!"

"Jeep!"

Like a real creature, Yuguan circled twice in front of her, and then suddenly flew out in one direction.

White silk threads continuously gushed out from around the jade crown, and under the blowing of the wind, they floated behind the jade crown one after another, like the comet's tail, drawing a white trail in the sky.

Yuguan flew at high speed, skipping every corner of Loki.

In the ancient courtyard, Catwoman is holding a short knife, practicing the knife skill seriously against the wooden stake in the courtyard.

It wasn't until the white silk thread passed over her head that Catwoman stopped, watched the thread leave, and reached out to pick up the towel on her shoulder to wipe the sweat from her forehead.

"Young master, Your Majesty Feifei, I wonder if you are all right now..."

Yuguan is like a child coming home from school, walking excitedly through the streets and alleys of the city that never sleeps, and from time to time playfully circles around passers-by, causing the crowd to panic, while boys and girls are laughing and chasing behind it. .

"grumble!"

Finally, amidst the laughter and curses of the crowd, the jade crown and the white silk rushed past the gate of the city that never sleeps, flew away quickly, and soon disappeared from people's sight.

"Village Chief, look, it's really Ah Wu!"

"This kid is really promising..."

In front of the village entrance of Fox Village, there is also the same light curtain as on the Everbright City Square. The villagers are all gathered here at this time, discussing happily.
