Chapter Twenty-Nine: The City of Demons and Demons

After the woman left, there was still silence. Li Qinglian looked at the distant sky and was silent. The bonfire grew longer and longer with the wind, and the light of the fire pulled the figures to the ground and shone on everyone's faces.

Lin Xi, Nie Yuqing, and Han Geng went downstairs down the hill, walked to Li Qinglian's side, and were about to speak. Li Qinglian suddenly pointed to the place where the sky and the mountain met, and said, "Look, what is that?" The three of them looked in the direction he pointed, only to see a black castle appear in the air in the distance.

Half of the castle was hidden in the clouds, and half of it was hidden in the night, looming in the air.

Strange things began to be noticed and looked into the city. The crowd in the clearing suddenly made a noise. I don't know who shouted: "That's the country of the beard!" Everyone suddenly boiled.

Many of the gangs looked at each other and said, "That's the country of the beard!" We searched for several days, and finally found it!" Groups of people are gone, as they were when they came. Only the bonfires that rose and flew on the ground remained.

Lin Xi said to Nie Yuqing: "Last time we broke into the country by mistake, Master doesn't know if it's inside, let's go take a look!" Nie Yuqing said: "Okay, let's go too!" and followed the crowd.

The castle stood far away in the air, and everyone had to look in the direction to chase, this road is a very far road, how do you know that after walking a certain road, you will see a big mountain suddenly standing in front of you, the castle will stand on the mountain, and there are stone steps leading to the mountain.

The crowd shouted and cried out, and their hearts were in ecstasy, and they climbed up. Lin Xi opened his eyes, distinguishing the true from the false, and had already seen that this castle was a ghost town, and he sneered: "This group of people came to find the country of the beard, just for the gold of the country of the beard, but how do they know that this country is a ghost country." ”

Li Qinglian said: "Let's go up and take a look." He took three steps, flew up, and in a short time reached the top of the mountain. I saw that the city was only standing on the top of the mountain, but the clouds were so thick that it covered the lower half, and from a distance it looked like it was standing in the air.

Many people had already rushed to the top of the hill, and they did not know what to do, so they ran into the city. Lin Xi and the four of them also followed. When I entered, I saw that there were houses and walls in the city, which was no different from the usual.

And they all scattered, rummaging around. Some lifted the ground, some demolished the houses, and some tossed through the grass, but they found no gold. Suddenly, someone rushed into the house and turned out a piece of bone and a porcelain jar. When he was angry and fell, he heard a few "clanging bells", and the porcelain jar was all gold after it was broken, and then the bones were cut open, and it was also full of gold. I only looked at these people red-eyed, and when I saw something, I smashed it open, and sure enough, no matter the table, the chair, the jug, or the urinal, there was gold after smashing it open. In the ecstasy, the crowd rummaged and looted everywhere, and some of them started to fight with their swords.

Lin Xi saw that everyone was crazy, and said, "It's not good! I'm afraid these people are going to die here." He was also a little moved when he saw Han Genglou when he saw the gold, took his hand, and said, "Don't look, those are all conjured up by dead people, and if you go to rob them, you will fall for the evil ghost's plan." Han Genglou said: "Yes." ”

Li Qinglian said: "Don't pay attention to these people, follow me!" Walking towards a street in front, after gradually walking away, he could no longer hear the sound of people snatching gold behind him, and it was a lot quieter. A shadow flashed around the corner of the street. Li Qinglian hurriedly rushed to chase after her, but no one was gone. Xiang Lin Xi asked, "Have you seen any ghosts?"

Lin Xi said: "I didn't see it. The four of them gradually walked into the deep city, turned two roads, and suddenly a royal palace appeared in front of them, the palace gate was open, and it was dark and difficult to see inside. Li Qinglian was bold and said, "Let's go in and have fun!" Walking into the palace, I vaguely saw many figures.

Li Qinglian sneered, stretched out her hand to hold away a green lotus fire, and let go of the light. Gradually entering the deep palace, the bead curtain jade pillar, the incense hall gold brick, very luxurious.

When he turned to the curtain, he saw a man sleeping on a bed. Li Qinglian lifted the bead curtain, but saw that it was a middle-aged man wearing a dragon robe, his face was golden, and he didn't know how long he had been dead.

Li Qinglian said: "Since this is a ghost town, how can there be good people." Reveal your ghost!" the middle-aged man remained motionless. Li Qinglian opened Qinglian's eyes, Qinglian opened, but she didn't see any disappearance. I couldn't help but change color in amazement.

Lin Xi also opened his amorous eyes - the amorous sword was born of love, turned by the wind, his vision was everywhere, he broke all the illusions, and he could also distinguish the true from the false in the world, ghosts, beasts and demons. It's just that when he opened his eyes to see, he couldn't see anything unusual. I couldn't help but wonder: "This corpse is just an ordinary corpse, not a ghost." ”

Nie Yuqing said, "Then why is he lying here?" Lin Xi shook his head.

Li Qinglian suddenly reached out to grab the corpse's chin and gently lifted it up, only to see that there was a small blood hole in the corpse's throat, and the blood had dried up. Lin Xi changed color and said, "This person just died?" Li Qinglian said: "No, he has been dead for a long time, you see his face is golden, if he hadn't been dead for a few days, it wouldn't be like this." ”

Lin Xi said: "Then who is he? Who killed him?" Li Qinglian stretched out her hand to support the edge of the bed, suddenly turned over the quilt, and found a long sword out of it. He drew his long sword and saw two small seals written on the blade: Changyuan.

Li Qinglian said: "Changyuan Sword." Legend has it that it was cast by Gongyezi's apprentice, and the sword was seven feet two long, sharp enough to easily break the gold stone. The person who wears the Changyuan sword is only one predecessor of Taishan, and he is a person from afar. This person should be a person from afar. ”

Lin Xi said: "How did he get here?" Li Qinglian stretched out her hand and searched the Tongyuan Daoist for a while, took out a roll of jade soap from the corpse's arms, opened it to see, and saw that the jade soap wrote: "Kunlun Mountain has no definite head, and the book is in front of Mount Tai Tongyuan Immortal: In the past, there were demons in the north, cultivating retrograde delusion, destroying goodness and virtue." Kunlun ordered the killing, and then fled to the north to establish himself as king in the Black Chonglin. Go to the Central Plains more than before, take the resentful souls and collect the ghosts, call them subordinates, have been evil for a long time, and the anger of the sky is difficult to peace. A letter has been sent to all Taoist friends, praying that the immortals will come down the mountain to get rid of it. ”

Li Qinglian said: "He, like the old man of the gourd, came by the decree of Kunlun Mountain. "Take the jade soap to Lin Xi. After Lin Xi saw it, he gave it to Nie Yuqing. Nie Yuqing said: "It's the same as what my father got." She frowned, a worried look appeared on her face, and said, "My father and two uncles also came down the mountain to get rid of this demon, and the demon ......."

Lin Xi knew that she was worried that Nie Liang and the two uncles would encounter accidents, and said, "Master's martial arts are so powerful, that demon can't help him." ”

Li Qinglian said: "Not necessarily, not necessarily!" Han Genglou said: "What is not necessarily?" Li Qinglian pointed to the corpse of the Tongyuan Daoist, shook her head, and said: "It may not be the demon who kills the Tongyuan Daoist." ”

Lin Xi said: "He also died under the fast sword...... It's that woman!" Nie Yuqing said, "That's right!

Li Qinglian said: "No! It is impossible for a person from a distance to die at the hands of that woman." Nie Yuqing said: "Why is it impossible?" Li Qinglian said: "It's almost enough, but this scar is not as good as her stab." ”

Suddenly, I heard a scream of "ah" outside, and then there was the sound of ping-pong fighting. Li Qinglian said: "Someone!" Busy out of the palace, I saw two figures entangled in the hall outside, fighting faster and faster. There was also a man sitting on the ground next to him, but he was covered in blood and had been seriously injured.

Lin Xi looked carefully, but the two people fighting were a man and a woman, the man used a long sword, and the woman was empty-handed. There was a man sitting on the ground, also a man, with a broken left arm, who had screamed before.

The man with the sword said sharply: "What a demon, you dare to hurt my Dao brother!" The long sword forced the woman to retreat again and again. The woman shouted, "Whoever breaks into the king's palace should die!"

Li Qinglian rushed over and hugged the man with the broken arm and sealed the acupoint for him. The man with the broken arm thanked him and said, "Quickly arrest the demon girl, only she knows where the demon king is." Li Qinglian said: "Who are you?"

The man gritted his teeth and said: "I am Wu Jie, a cultivator under Mount Emei, and that is also a cultivator under Mount Emei, called Chen Ya, we are here to arrest the demon king Futian by the decree of Kunlun Mountain." ”

That Chen Ya fought with the demon girl for a while, and danced the flying sword, but the demon girl couldn't resist it, and he cut off two arms. Chen Ya said: "Brother Wu, she broke one of your arms, and I will break her two arms to avenge you!"

The demon girl screamed fiercely, "I swear to you!" turned into a demon wind and left. Chen Ya shouted, "Hugh go!" chased after him with his sword.

Li Qinglian said: "Let's also follow." "Pick up Wu Jie. After chasing out of a street, he suddenly heard Chen Ya shouting in front of him: "Who?"

Li Qinglian felt that something was wrong, and rushed out with Lin Xi. It was the middle of the moon, and the moonlight shone on the street. On the corner of the street lay a corpse, still convulsive.

Lin Xi snatched over and hugged the corpse, and couldn't help but be shocked, the corpse was Chen Ya. I saw that there was a small blood hole in his throat, and after a moment of convulsion, he lost his breath.

Li Qinglian liberated Wu and snatched it to Chen Ya's corpse, and said: "Chen ......" Seeing that his eyes were straight, the expression on his face was still in shock. Li Qinglian said, "Who?" stood up and chased towards the dark part of the street.

Lin Xi was afraid that he would lose, so he also hurriedly chased after him. After the two chased out more than ten zhang, they couldn't see anyone, so they had to go back. Li Qinglian walked slowly and said, "That person's sword technique is very fast, very fast!" Lin Xi said: "Knife technique, isn't it sword technique?"

Li Qinglian said: "No, it must not be a swordsmanship." I will not fail to see the sword by making the sword. ”

Lin Xi said: "So you know that it wasn't the woman who killed the Yuan Immortal?"

Li Qinglian said: "No. First, the woman made the sword, and these people were stabbed and died, and secondly, they were ...... After the death of these people, the souls disappeared, and the woman did not know the Tao and could not take the souls away. Lin Xi said: "Yes." ”

They returned to Chen Ya's body, and Nie Yuqing said, "Can anyone catch up?" Lin Xi said: "No." Nie Yuqing said, "What about the banshee?"

The two were stunned. Li Qinglian said: "Yes, what about the banshee? Why is it gone?" Looking back, the street was empty. Lin Xi said: "I have escaped." ”

Li Qinglian said: "I didn't escape, I'm still ahead!" hurriedly chased forward. Lin Xi said: "Let's chase!" Han Genglou picked up Wu Xie and chased after Nie Yuqing.
