Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Living Immortals
The ground under her feet suddenly softened, and Gu Xiaoxiao grabbed Zhan Yan's arm in a little surprise.
The white bones of each arm came out of the earth, crunching, and it was terrifying to match the darkness of the woods here. Gu Xiaoxiao's teeth also crunched.
Zi Bu Strange Power God Zi Silent Strange Power God, Gu Xiaoxiao's courage is about to be scared out, and the mass grave is not so terrible, okay, although I often watch ghost movies, it is not so high-definition and uncensored!
And then...... Then Gu Xiaoxiao was picked up by Zhan Yan. Hanging in mid-air, you can see the hand bones below keep stretching towards them, and Zhan Yan's feet are already densely piled up, constantly surging up.
Zhan Yan went down with a sword, and a deep trace was cut, and a piece of white bones was split out, the picture paused, and all the white bones quickly shrank back.
Gu Xiaoxiao: ......
Falling to the ground, Gu Xiaoxiao also deliberately stepped on the ground, which was solid and reliable, and the scene just now seemed to be an illusion.
Seeing Zhan Yan, he began to dig the grave. As soon as the sword went down, a coffin was poked.
This coffin is a little different, it was still dripping with blood when it was unearthed, and a strong smell of blood came out. There is also a spell drawn on it, Gu Xiaoxiao looked at it, the reverse death talisman, this is a person who cannot enter reincarnation.
There are nine coffin nails nailed on the outside of the coffin, and nine is the pole, but it is unlucky to use it on the coffin. Zhan Yan's eyes were cold, and he split the coffin directly, and the sword touched it and there was the sound of Jin Ge.
Fortunately, Zhan Yan's sword was originally evil. So the coffin still opened, and the horizontal corpse inside jumped out, yes, it jumped out. It's a girl in a black dress, no, it's not a black dress, it's a blood-stained black skirt, and the smell of fish is heavier than the surrounding rot, which makes people want to retch.
The hair was half-pulled in a bun, dirty and messy, tarnished, stuck in a wooden hairpin, eyes not open, pale face, lips and nails jet black.
Gu Xiaoxiao hid behind Zhan Yan and observed carefully. It's like a zombie, maybe it's so.
Before he finished thinking about it, Zhan Yan had already gone over to fight with the female corpse.
The hand bones that had been shrunk came out again, wanting to pull Gu Xiaoxiao, Gu Xiaoxiao saw it once, so she was not so afraid, and took out Bai Ze's pen with her hand, and a few strokes were a Lei Yan talisman, which blew up a piece of this place cleanly.
Then Hand Gu saw that this little girl was not easy to mess with, so he shrank back and shrank back.
Gu Xiaoxiao "......" ability.
Gu Xiaoxiao squatted there, wanting to sit cross-legged, and pulled a cushion out, a meter away, surrounded by white bones. Maybe it would look better with flowers.
The pen was on top of his lips, pouting, and looking at Zhan Yan's fight scene.
Zhan Yan's movements are very good-looking and chic, he is a neat black power suit, every move is full of great power, the sword light flashes and flashes, and the girl's body is in contact, making a golden sound, Gu Xiaoxiao also thought about it, whether it was a coffin or a girl's body just now.
The girl is very powerful, Zhan Yan can only leave shallow traces, and then the sword body is bright, with a thin layer of yellow light, the sword hitting the girl is as easy as cutting tofu, and she can't die anymore after a few strokes, nailed to the ground with a coffin, and Gu Xiaoxiao burned it.
The hand bones squeezed around Gu Xiaoxiao shook together, and then staggered.
Gu Xiaoxiao: ?
"What's the matter with these bones?" Gu Xiaoxiao wondered, the corpses were gone, what happened to these messy hand bones, and how long would it take to jump?
"The yin qi here is too heavy, nourishing these things, just a few simple movements, and when the yin qi is gone, it will naturally be fine. Zhan Yan put away the nine nails and threw them to the refining peak later. Not a good thing.
At dawn the next day, something big happened in the town. The back forest, which is only open every year for the sacrifice, was entered and the grave was dug up.
The Liu family.
"Master, what can I do about this?" Mrs. Liu looked at the back well, the well water that was about to bubble up, the water level visible to the naked eye kept decreasing, and finally only a shallow bottom remained.
This kind of thing happened not only in Liu's mansion, but also in the backyard of every family in the town. It caused a lot of panic, and the people in the town rushed to Liu's mansion.
"Oh no, sir, the people in the town are all gathered around our house and asked us what happened. The butler came panting, sweating profusely.
Old Man Liu's face was blue, how did he know what was going on? Then he hurriedly walked towards Houlin with someone.
Now there is no need to say anything, the formation is broken, what else can be done, the coffin and the corpse are gone! Who did it!
"Recently, there are some immortal cultivators in the town? Master Liu turned his head and asked the housekeeper behind him.
"No, but there are four people, two of whom you know, who have been doing business with us for two or three years, and all the grain we produce is sold to them. There are two more who haven't seen it, raw faces, who said they were playing, and they were going to kill them in two days. The butler whispered in his ear.
Master Liu thought for a while, "Let's go, go to the restaurant...... No, let's go to the living immortals first and ask what to do. ”
The living immortals are the people who set up the array for them, four years ago, when there was a great drought in the world, and everyone in the town couldn't live happily, the living immortals came.
There is a curse in their town, and they can't do without this town for generations, and if they leave, they will die, and some people who don't believe in evil want to go out a few years ago, and finally die in the back forest, becoming a white skeleton, and no one has tried it since.
The living immortal is not old, and he is a middle-aged man who listens to the voice, wearing a cloak all the time, and his skin will not be exposed at all. Originally, he was not welcome in the town, but he solved the water problem and was respected by the people in the town.
He doesn't live in a small town, but he does belong to the town.
The solution to the problem is to use a coffin to press the water out. Candidates for the Dry Corpse...... It's the passer-by of the year. The coffin nails were given by the living gods, and the talismans were also drawn according to the appearance given by the living gods, and the place where the coffin was buried was also calculated by thousands of calculations.
Sure enough, it worked, and the wells, which dry up every year, did not run out of water for four years in a row. There is even much more grain grown, and every year the granary is full and can be sold a lot.
It's just that the travelers passing by here are miserable. Was taken to the town coffin.
I don't know who wrote the distress letter that Xunzong received, and who sent it, why it took four years to receive it.
As for the living immortals in their mouths, they have been tied up by Zhan Yan, and the spirit rope is tightly wrapped around his body, and the pale skin that does not see the sun has been strangled out, and the cyan blood vessels are faintly about to burst out.
The voice of the living immortal is very young, and the face is even younger, but it is very ugly, as if it has been burned by fire, and its skin is pitted, red and white.
"Burned by spiritual fire. Zhan Yan's mind remembered that ten years ago, there was a corpse chasing family that seemed to have been burned clean by a sudden heavenly fire, leaving nothing behind. But he wasn't a curious person and didn't ask. Bringing people back to the sect is the purpose of his trip, and the rest of the sects will solve it.
The living immortals were quiet along the way, Gu Xiaoxiao didn't ask, he wouldn't speak, just quietly looked at the sky and looked at the scenery under the sword. Soon they arrived at Xunzong, and after the living immortals were taken away by the people of the torture gate, they were idle.
Gu Xiaoxiao didn't get any exercise during this trip, but she saw a lot, such as zombies, and the production process of human meat buns.
Passing through large towns on the way back, but they didn't stop. Just left.
But soon, the opportunity came, Gu Xiaoxiao's monthly task. She took on a task to deliver rune paper to Mocheng.
They all made their own rune papers, but the low-level ones were bought by themselves, and the part they made by themselves was kept for their own use, and the other part was sold in Mocheng.
Mocheng is a large city managed by Xunzong. It is a city that specializes in selling paper, ink, pen and inkstone to the world. There are ordinary people who use it, and there are also immortal cultivators who use it. All the pen, ink, paper and inkstone in the world can be bought here.
One of Zang Yanfeng's monthly tasks is to send rune paper over, which is the easiest task, and everyone leaves it to Gu Xiaoxiao.
Gu Xiaoxiao rode a little griffin, Ruan Bai was held in her arms, and now she is a little bigger, one and a half feet old, and her hair is very comfortable.
The red moire between its forehead is more obvious, but it doesn't have the domineering of an adult moire beast, only the soft and cute and well-behaved, during this time it has eaten a lot of demon pills, and it has to sleep for a lot of time every day, usually Gu Xiaoxiao puts it in the house, puts a bunch of demon pills, and lets it eat when it wakes up, and sleeps when it eats, which is very easy to take care of. This time, I had to follow behind Gu Xiaoxiao. Gu Xiaoxiao followed her around before she went out, and Gu Xiaoxiao almost stepped on it.
In the end, I had to carry it and walk away.
Mocheng is not far from the sect, after all, it is a city under its jurisdiction. It's too far to manage.
Far away, before I arrived, I saw the sign of Mocheng, a huge pen standing in the city, you can see the long pen, very eye-catching, and the moat, the water is very clear, you can see the fish.
The street is very prosperous, people come and go, rubbing shoulders, Gu Xiaoxiao followed the flow of people into the city, this is a commercial city, lively and noisy.
Gu Xiaoxiao saw the gourd cake. When I walked over, there were many adults with children in their arms.
You can smell the strong smell of osmanthus. The store is still making it freshly, five cents a piece, and the oil paper package is good, there are about twelve pieces of a piece. Gu Xiaoxiao bought a box.
It is soft and glutinous, and it tastes a bit like a marshmallow, but it does not melt in your mouth, and it has a strong osmanthus flavor in your mouth, which is not sweet or greasy, and you can eat a box in one go.
Gu Xiaoxiao's eyes lit up, and she turned back and bought seven or eight boxes. She bought everything that the store had placed there, and she had to stay for two days anyway, and it would be good to come back to buy it later, a few more rounds. She still remembers that her senior sister asked her to bring it. Give Yaoqin and Mu Chun and Zhan Yan Qin Shen a taste again. And those little friends.
Going all the way, Gu Xiaoxiao really spent a lot of money, this is different from the capital, the capital is within the scope of the mortal world, and the things sold are all in the mortal world, but here it is different, it belongs to the mixed area of the immortal cultivation world and the mortal world, and there is everything.
It's not just about eating, it's also useful, it's also about playing.
I also booked a nest for Ruan Bai, I don't know what material it was made of, anyway, Ruan Bai tried it, and he didn't want to come out again. Gu Xiaoxiao coaxed that she would make a custom before she was willing to leave.
The place where Gu Xiaoxiao delivered the goods was in Mobao Pavilion. There are several layers, all of which are paper, ink, pen and inkstone, and the second layer is books.
Gu Xiaoxiao saw that a person who looked like a scholar was actually selling books! It was the kind of book buying that modern writers do. The scholar handed the book in his arms to the person who managed the appearance of the cabinet.
