Chapter 273: Ghost Land
The water used to boil the tea needs to be boiled three times. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
In the teapot, the water droplets were churning violently, shaking the lid of the pot and buzzing, and the old tea dirt at the bottom of the pot trembled and almost fell off.
The dim light stretched the shadows of several people beside the kettle very long.
This is a secluded courtyard, with two or three bedrooms next to the courtyard, thatched, like a courtyard built by mountain people.
The mysterious place that Zhou Xiaofeng found was here.
In the courtyard, Zhou Xiaofeng, Zhou Xiaoyue, Ye Lingtian, and Xiong Yan were drinking, and Qin Lang took the guards to guard and patrol around.
Zhou Xiaoyue said: "Big brother, your place is too difficult to find, if it weren't for the unique mark you left, I really wouldn't be able to find it." ”
Zhou Xiaofeng picked up a glass of wine, shook his head and sighed: "I haven't been to Yecheng for more than ten years, I didn't expect it to be here, but the young man at the door has become an old man with a beard." ”
Xiong Yan raised his glass and shouted: "A glass to the two of you, if Uncle Zhou comes back, the two of you will have to say good things to me, and you must accept me as an apprentice." ”
Zhou Xiaofeng said with a smile: "You, if you want our brother to speak, it is better to ask Gongzi to speak, Gongzi is better than the two of us." ”
Ye Lingtian smiled slightly and said, "This matter is not difficult to do, when I see him, I will talk to him." ”
Xiong Yan laughed, raised his glass to himself, and said, "Then thank Gongzi first, and I'll do it first as a respect." ”
After three rounds of drinking, the atmosphere naturally became harmonious, Zhou Xiaoyue grabbed Zhou Xiaofeng's shoulders and said, "Brother, you never went back back then, I looked for Brother Shaolong for a long time." Over the years, Brother Shaolong has traveled everywhere, and he has not intended to find your whereabouts, where have you been hiding? But when I saw you with Childe, brother, I knew that you still had a secret. ”héiyaпgě
Zhou Xiaofeng's face turned red, raised his glass, toasted, and said, "Drink and drink." ”
The past is insignificant, at that time, the old brothers who came with him broke through the realm one by one, and gradually occupied a high position in this Ye City, but he, Zhou Xiaofeng, was stuck there for a lifetime, and he was never allowed to break through.
Seeing that the deadline is approaching, the friends around him remain middle-aged one by one, but he is dying, his energy is limited, and there is no hope of breakthrough, what is the point of staying here? It's better to find a small mountain village that no one knows about and grow old alone!
Ye Lingtian glanced at Zhou Xiaofeng, who was full of memories, and could probably guess his thoughts.
It's just that now, he has also broken through the realm, his appearance has returned to his middle-aged appearance, and everything will return to the same as before.
Zhou Xiaofeng is very happy, he hasn't been so happy for many years.
Zhou Xiaoyue was also very happy to see her brother who she hadn't seen for many years.
Their happiness is the same.
To be happy, you need a hangover.
Ye Lingtian took a sip of wine gently, it was spicy, burning like fire, the liquor was strong enough, and there was a slight smell of Floating Moon City floating, it should have been refined by those old men of Qingyunwei.
Zhou Xiaoyue was so drunk that her tongue began to roll, and she suddenly remembered what the two old men had explained, shook her head, and stammered: "Gong...... Childe, Ye Yun and Ye Han said, I want Childe to be calm and not impatient, wait a few days, and they will definitely come to greet you in person at that time. ”
"Hey, Childe, how do your subordinates see that you have become two, after so many years, Childe has not changed, when we first met, my subordinates almost didn't recognize it."
Ye Lingtian smiled: "Drink your bar, see if you get drunk." ”
The three of them were drunk, Ye Lingtian got up and came to the outside of the small courtyard.
In front of the small courtyard is a small shop, selling some daily firewood, rice, oil and salt, making little money, but it is enough to maintain the family.
The shopkeeper is a white-haired old man, who was able to open this shop by Zhou Xiaofeng's favor when he was young, and now Zhou Xiaofeng came more than ten years later, and the old man enthusiastically gave up his backyard to live for these thirty or forty people.
Seeing Ye Lingtian come out, the old man asked enthusiastically, "This son, do you want to go out?" ”
Ye Lingtian nodded and said, "They are still drinking, I hope they didn't bother the old man." ”
The old man grinned, revealing his teeth that were about to fall out, and said, "How can it, if there were no adults, there would be no little old man today." To be a man, you must be kind, and you must be grateful to repay it. ”
After chattering, the old man said a lot more, Ye Lingtian smiled: "If they wake up, just say I'll go out." ”
"Okay, little old man knows."
Ye Lingtian walked out of the small courtyard and came to the city.
Ye Cheng is very big, so he naturally won't be stupid enough to directly release his spiritual sense to find out, so as not to cause any trouble.
If you want to find out some information, you can only go and walk yourself.
Wandering in the crowd, Ye Lingtian's eyes shimmered, casting illusions, shuttling through the flow of people, and no one around him discovered his existence.
He was like a shadow walking through the streets.
The layout of Ye City is similar to that of Zhang Jingcheng, but the area inside the city is larger, Ye Lingtian is moving around quickly, he finds that there is always a mysterious area in the corner of these big cities, which is an area that people are not willing to enter easily.
Ye Lingtian remembered the habitat of the locals that people had said when he was in Qingfeng City, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt like a ghost land.
With a little curiosity in his heart, he turned his mind to go and find out.
That dead and silent city was in the corner of the northwest corner of Yecheng, and there were no lights all day long.
One by one, the primitive natives lined up listlessly and walked through a huge stone gate to enter.
This scene looks like a queue for reincarnation.
There was a thin layer of light mist above the stone door, and the spiritual sense quietly poked out, but it was never possible to see through the void and reality in it, and this mist actually had the function of isolating the spiritual sense.
After a careful observation, Ye Lingtian found that the closer these people were to the city, the more vivid they became, and the closer they were to the stone gate, they actually looked like they had lost all their minds.
It is very strange that every city has such an area, and it is said that if it is the builder of the city, he cannot set aside such a piece of land for this, so how did this place come to be?
Why is there such a place in every city?
It's a mystery.
"I'll have to ask the others when the time comes." Ye Lingtian thought about it, intending to get closer.
At this time, I heard a shout in the distance: "Get out of the way, get out of the way!" ”
I saw that on a nearby street, three ruffian-looking evil men chased a beggar with knives and beat him wildly, and the beggar vomited blood and ran wildly, shouting as he ran.
"Hack him to death for me!"
"Brothers, chase!"
The villains are viciously wielding knives and chasing after them.
The beggar was barefoot, holding a chicken leg in his hand, and his face was stained with a few wisps of vegetable leaves.
Seeing that he was at the stone gate, the beggar probably knew the strangeness here, but unfortunately he had no way to escape, someone on the left approached with a smile, and there were also people on the right who surrounded him, and the beggar gritted his teeth, and knocked away those people who looked like zombies, and fled towards the stone gate.
"Ahh
With a terrible scream, Ye Lingtian saw the beggar's body slowly melting in the stone gate, and the white mist wrapped in it seemed to be melting him alive, and in the end, there was not even a bit of scum left.
Only the chicken leg fell into the stone door.
"People die for money, birds die for food, and this guy can be regarded as dying for food."
"I'm really looking for death, don't you know that this is a forbidden place? If you dare to rush there, it's better to be beaten half to death than to have no bones left. ”
"Forget it, let's go, anyway, the boss just told us to beat him up. To die is to die. ”
The wicked men shook their heads, slung their swords over their shoulders, and faded away.
"Life is so fragile." Ye Lingtian sighed, and suddenly his gaze suddenly froze.
He saw that in the stone gate, a mouse actually sneaked close to the chicken leg, sniffed it, and actually ate it somewhere.
Squeaky and cry of joy, the cries of the rats attracted a bunch of mice, and in a few strokes the chicken leg was gnawed to the bone.
"People can't go in, rats can't go in, what's the biggest difference between people and rats? Why do they have freedom of movement? ”
Ye Lingtian's eyes moved, and he thought hard.
