Exile Chapter 64 The Strange Village
The terrain behind the demon bones is very flat, the strange trees on both sides are towering, the giant vines are falling, and a hanging coffin appears on the cliff walls on both sides from time to time.
Many coffins have been eroded by time and have long been dilapidated, and the bones lying inside have disappeared inexplicably. Some of the decaying coffins still bear the teeth and claw marks that some strange creature has eaten. It's a hairstand upside down.
There are even some coffins that have been eroded over time without decaying, and there are bursts of palpitating gasps coming from the coffins, revealing a chilling and strange aura everywhere.
Only Ruoyu was cheerful, like a fish in water, riding the red fish of Bubo and passing quickly. Ruoyu, who received the money, was extremely efficient, and soon led everyone to a fork in the road.
The wind whimpered all around, like the sound of ghosts crying. Bursts of chill blew from the other forks, and the yin qi hit people, and those forks in the road were deep and hazy, and the black holes were like an abyss.
Ruoyu became more and more excited, stepping on the mahogany swimming fish happily like a homing bird, flying along one of the forks in the road.
After a while, a quaint and dilapidated laughing village came into view. Old women sat by an ancient well, chatting with their clothes.
Not far away, there were some old people in the twilight, leaning against the wall and smoking dry cigarettes, and a few young children frolicking around the house, climbing up and down, so happy.
Thatched huts, ancient wells, and children form a very simple picture, just like the most ordinary village in Xiban.
Everyone was instantly alerted, how could a human village suddenly appear in the forbidden land of the demon race, the ancestral land of the zombie race? This is extremely abnormal, contrary to common sense, and very strange.
Ruoyu rushed into the village with a cheer, and the old woman in the village stopped her work in surprise when she saw her coming, and surrounded her to ask for warmth.
She was like a cheerful lark, chirping in the village, and many people came out, and she greeted everyone who was familiar with her.
"Auntie, aunt, second uncle, oops, the little girl has grown up. ”
The people in the village were very kind and greeted Ruoyu warmly, and she walked around the village before she remembered the people behind her.
"Come on~"
Ruoyu waved his hand from afar, and Du Xuan looked around with his delusional pupils. I saw that the entire village was shrouded in a very terrifying force, and the cold aura around it could not penetrate at all, and even the majestic demonic qi from the secret realm had to stop here.
The villagers have some demonic energy in their bodies to a greater or lesser extent, but they are not real demons, they are more like demon servants or demon cultivators.
There is an ancestral hall in the middle of the village, and there is a black coffin hanging in the depths of the ancestral hall, on which are densely covered with strange runes of unknown mysteries, covering the entire black coffin like chains.
I don't know what material this black coffin is made of, even Du Xuan's delusional pupil can't penetrate it, and it is deep and secluded within a radius of ten zhang, like the reflection of the Nine Secluded Regions, like the source of darkness, which is intimidating.
The coffin seemed to contain the corpses of the gods, and the strange runes rippled in layers, forming a barrier that enveloped the entire village. There was a near-deathly silence that almost swallowed up people's hearts and souls.
"These people are not demons, be careful, don't go near the cliff and the ancestral hall. Du Xuan reminded and led the crowd out.
When the villagers saw outsiders coming, their faces immediately changed, and they all picked up iron forks and shovels to face everyone. But the hands were obviously shaking, and some even fell to the ground, their legs trembling with fear, and they couldn't stand up.
"Uncle Village, don't be afraid, these are my followers, and I will leave in the village for a few days. Ruoyu comforted.
Du Xuan coughed, Mu Haoyun immediately understood, and with a dark face, he took out a lot of Divine Gold and Divine Iron as the cost of the night.
"Toothless, are these people your servants outside?" asked an aunt in a whisper carrying a bamboo basket.
"Of course, these are my little followers, this is Xiao Du, this is Xiao Jing, this is Xiao Xue, this is Xiao Yun. ”
"And these, come, call people. Ruoyu pointed to the twelve Mumen disciples in high spirits.
"Big sister..."Lu Qi, Kong Zhou and others were forced to speak in unison.
"Oh! Toothless Boy, these... There are a lot of them. ”
"Auntie is so powerful, so majestic!"
"It's all my own family, hurry, please come in. The village elder was very simple and greeted everyone warmly.
Du Xuan muttered a shameless woman in a low voice, and was glared at fiercely by Ruoyu.
The people in the village are very pure and kind, and there is no scheming, and the village chief diligently arranges for everyone to stay. There are only a dozen families in the whole village, less than 20 people. There are not so many people living in the hut at all, Jiang Xue is arranging for the Shence Army to set up a camp tent, Mu Haoyun ordered to increase the original seven people to a tent of twenty people, and he seems to have noticed the abnormality in the ancestral hall.
Du Xuan moved a dilapidated bench and started a routine with an old woman, who was kind and kind, and repeatedly shirked the elixir handed by Du Xuan.
handed him a fruit with a bitter aroma, and said with a smile: "This little brother is handsome, and he should be a pair with Toothless." ”
Du Xuan smiled: "Auntie, why is our eldest sister called Toothless again?"
The woman's expression darkened, sighed, and said, "Our toothless little Ni'er has had a hard life since she was a child, born in a broken coffin, but as a zombie, she was born without blood teeth and can't eat. ”
"Over the years, it has been the people in the village who have helped her to transfuse blood from door to door, and only then has she lived, and the big guys have called her toothless. ”
The old woman smiled, kindly, kindly.
Du Xuan was silent, these people in the village were all stained with a little demonic energy, they were probably the Xiban residents who were captured by the demons, or the descendants of the demon cultivators. Abandoned for some reason, they are neither human nor demonic, and they are corrupted by demonic energy, and they are tortured every day. Not accepted by the human race, and abandoned by the demons, he can only live in this gray area and barely survive.
But in such an environment, they can still maintain the kindness in their hearts, and take good care of Ruoyu, who was also abandoned, is so simple and gentle.
"Later, the king came to arrest the servants and killed many people, and the toothless boy fought with them, but he didn't fight, and he was forced to leave. It's been a long time. ”
The old woman sighed with emotion, and the past seemed to be vivid.
"Ruoyu..." Du Xuan suddenly felt a pain in his heart, Ruoyu seemed to be heartless every day, and he looked like he was borrowing wine to kill his sorrows. often steals the spiritual wine at home, takes Xu Qingqing's jewelry, and extorts his spiritual liquid.
In fact, she lives in pain every day, every moment, she needs to use spiritual wine to suppress the demonic energy, and she needs to use the purest spiritual qi to curb her bloodthirsty desire.
Zombies are also known as corpse cultivation, the yin and yang of all things in heaven and earth are interchanged, in fact, it is complex and simple, the anode is born of yin, the yin is prosperous and yang, and the zombie is the corpse of the corpse buried in the place of extreme yin.
Only after crossing the realm of Tianfu, surviving the calamity, and forming a corpse pill in the body, will he get rid of the desire for the blood of living beings and become a true corpse cultivator. She still has a long way to go.
"Toothless has grown up and is promising, and now I don't have to worry about going hungry anymore. The old woman was very pleased.
Du Xuan nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, never again." ”
The darkness grew around them, like a black cloth covering the top of the village. The night was as quiet as a pool of water, as if all the living beings had slept, and everything seemed so peaceful......
A bright moon gradually rose, bright and soft, round like a jade plate. People could see her when they looked up, but when they looked down, it was dark, silent, and deep.
The bright moon is in the sky, but there is no trace of moonlight sprinkled, everyone seems to be at the bottom of the sea, thousands of feet of abyss, and what is beyond the thousands of feet is just the surface of the water.
This scene is extremely terrifying and chilling.
Inside, Situ fidgeted quietly, her fear of strange powers far outweighed the threat of life and death. Her hand gripped Ruoyu tightly, and she was almost about to hug each other.
Ruoyu leaned against the window and cocked Erlang's legs, knocked melon seeds, and spat at the moon. Pour out dissatisfaction in your heart.
Du Xuan untied the straw rope, and the simple curtain woven by the straw rope fell, isolating the darkness from the hut.
Long You drilled into Bu Bo's cargo to steal the Divine Treasure and Divine Iron, Mu Wushuang held up an oil-paper umbrella to cover him, and Bu Bo was obsessed with the Hundred Refining Sutra.
Lu Qi, Kong Zhou and others gathered around to discuss Mu Lao's codex, and everyone argued endlessly about the ghostly graffiti on the handbook, and Du Xuan's old face turned red and hid to the side.
The old woman of the village repeatedly stressed that she should not go out of the house in the middle of the night tonight, let alone out of the village, and that no matter what was happening outside, what she heard, or what she saw, she should not come out. You can't answer anyone's words, otherwise there will be great disaster.
Therefore, the Shence army did not even arrange guards, all of them were in the camp tents, lit up all night, and took turns to rest.
Because tonight is the fifteenth day of the seventh month, the time of the year when the yin energy is at its highest, and there will be a blood moon tonight.
Inside and outside the village, the gloomy atmosphere made Situ Jing tremble, and behind the rocks thousands of kilometers away, there was a team that had been dormant for a long time under the cover of night.
Luo Shan held a unicorn seal in his hand, and the big seal rippled, enveloping everyone, and the cold demonic qi around him could not be eroded.
Although this big seal has a corner, it can still swing up a large array of mountain guards, as if there is a unicorn beast lying around, it is a semi-holy weapon!
"There is actually a gray area here, the third prince begged for death, get rid of him here, no one will know. Yan Ning's eyes were murderous, and his face was vicious.
"This village is full of evil, and there may be great evil. Luo Shan was suspicious, he looked at the thatched cottage village from a distance, and saw a strange picture, like a ghost door wide open, devouring people's minds.
"Kill the village at the peak of the moon and use their blood to pave the way for His Royal Highness the Great Prince!" another person spoke, seemingly a close confidant of the Great Prince.
Luo Shan nodded, revealing a fierce look, the soldiers immediately arranged, the remaining killing weapons were moved out, and the array mages immediately laid out charging formations to replenish the spiritual energy of many killing weapons.
On the branches of the moon, a faint red climbed in mid-air, setting off the night sky very strangely.
"Kill!"
Luo Shan roared in a low voice, surrounded by dark shadows, and the killing weapon sent out a dazzling light, and bursts of stray bullets rushed towards the village.
At the moment when the aura was surging, Mu Haoyun suddenly showed a mysterious smile. Bu Bo held the Hundred Refining Sutra and knocked his fingers on the table without raising his head.
Suddenly, the Great Array of Concealment of the Sky reversed, and a brilliant lotus flower bloomed at the feet of Luo Shan and the others, and a pillar of light that rushed to the sky was like a lighthouse in the dark night, pointing out the direction for the evil in the dark.
Luo Shan roared angrily with a knife and led the crowd to kill, although he was exposed, he had no way to retreat.
The nine-ring sword swept the nine-zhang sword, and his void god was actually an evil beast wolf, and he turned into a floating light like a cannonball and rushed into the village.
Du Xuan sat in the atrium, standing still, everything in the village was under the gaze of his delusional pupils.
He pinched the sword technique in his hand and slashed out, and countless sword rays spun from the mutilated ancient sword and roared forward like a wheel, taking away half of his Lingqi in an instant.
Luo Shan shook the sword and took a few steps back, although he had been immersed in the Queqiao Realm for a long time, he still couldn't resist the blow of the Broken Ancient Sword and Du Xuan's momentum.
"Withdraw!"
Although Yan Ning, Luo Shan and the others were unwilling, the first round of killing weapon attacks were all blocked by Bu Bo's Void Array, and it was difficult for subsequent attacks to break into Du Xuan's sword formation in a short period of time.
"Ahh
A terrible scream tore through the night sky, and a black shadow flew past the village, and several soldiers had their eyeballs removed. Covering the eyes of the black hole in pain, he screamed miserably.
"Ahh
A large, green-haired hand reached out from the deathly darkness, dragging a soldier trying to flee into the endless darkness, followed by a creepy gnawing sound.
"What kind of person pretends to be a ghost!"
Luo Shan's eyes were about to split, and the Nine Ring Knife slashed left and right, rushing into the dark to find an inexplicable existence.
Poof!
His Void God Evil Beast Wolf Ao was thrown to the ground by a black shadow, the humanoid creature was extremely fast, its limbs were strangely twisted, and it disappeared into the darkness with the wolf Ao in its mouth.
"Look for death!"
Luo Shan's hair is scattered, like madness. A big knife slashes indiscriminately, the void god is his soul, and the void god does not exist if he loses it.
Poof!
A thin, dark claw tore through his chest, and an inexplicable presence in the darkness opened his green eyes. Luo Shan's eyes widened, and he didn't see the existence in the darkness until he died.
Crash!
A dark iron chain rattled, and even in the midst of countless screams, it was extremely clear, as if it was right in the ear. At the end of the chain was a blood-stained barb, and the chain dragged Luo Shan's body away and away.
Yan Ning and the others who survived suddenly stood upside down, and even Luo Shan, who was as strong as the Queqiao Realm, was torn off his spine with a single look. They lost the last of their courage, threw away their armor and ran in disarray.
Screams, cries for help, and cries came and went. The evil in the darkness is like a ghost, like an Asura demon from the depths of the underworld, overflowing and harvesting life in the world.
The moon turned red, blood splattered, and blood flowed to form a small river. The ground was covered with blood and bones, and bones were covered with shriveled skins.
One after another, black shadows jumped on the branches, raised the corpses in their hands and sucked at the moon, and many people were dragged up the branches before they died. The terrible screams of despair reflected the blood moon, forming a picture of purgatory on earth.
On one of the branches, a gray figure covered with strange black hair slowly raised the corpse in his hand, and the corpse was Luo Shan's corpse.
Dozens of strange black shadows opened their arms and roared at the moon, the silence around them was a little terrifying, and a blood moon hung high in the air, soaked in blood-like red, as if it was about to drip blood.
