The city is not quite right.

The white flag observed the deserted streets, buildings, plants and flowers, and felt a strong sense of disobedience.

His sensitive nose could smell the living, but it also smelled of dead man, which made him frown uncomfortably, and told his companions of the discovery.

"Ever since you saw the city gate officer, you feel that something is wrong, right?" After Yan Feng complained, he became serious: "Why is no one walking around the street?" Could it be that the new lord of the city has imposed a curfew? ”

But it's too early.

On the street, there are scattered confetti, pure white, as if there was a funeral not long ago, rendering this desolate, half-light and half-dark street, which is a bit similar to the beginning of a horror movie, no, the beginning of a horror movie should be full of sunshine and happiness?

And then turn to the painting style.,It's going to be more scary.。

In fact, Shao Yu, who only reads novels and doesn't chase dramas, thought.

The cat has already jumped on the owner's shoulder, rubbing the owner's face from time to time, this behavior has made it find a lot of security, and the trembling body gradually calms down.

Pets are debts.

It's stupid, greedy, and timid, so what did you raise it for in the first place?

Probably because of the cuteness.

↑ Meng is justice or something→_→

Xiao Ge was originally walking in front, walking slower and slower, slower and slower, thinking that he was very hidden, he retreated to Shao Yu's side, slowly stretched out his little hand, and grabbed his father's big hand.

Big hands hold small hands ~ Walking is not afraid of slipping ~ brushing away the music that suddenly ran in his mind, Shao Yu's hand tightened, and naturally led the cute little cub away.

On the left is an inn.

The name "Qilu", which is consistent with the whole city, is also empty.

There was a guy napping on the counter, and Yan Feng knocked on the table and called him twice, but the guy still had his eyes closed, and there was no sign of consciousness at all.

White Flag sniffed: "He's alive." ”

Dusk City is not big, the group raised their vigilance and walked around, the streets and alleys were not inhabited, the doors and windows of the residents' houses were closed, the shops had closed their doors one after another, and after a circle, except for the Qilu Inn, there was no other place to go.

Give somebody a dose of his own medicine?

Or are you thinking too much?

There's nothing wrong with prudence.

Yan Feng was unwilling: "We can only go back to the inn?" ”

As a young master who has always been very picky, the little crow doesn't want to walk into this kind of place that puts on a 'you only have one choice' posture.

They were passing by an ordinary residential house at this time.

Shao Yu asked the dog, "Is there a living person here?" ”

"......" Bai Qi, who inexplicably felt that his status had been lowered, sniffed hard: "There is the smell of the dead, and there are also the living." ”

Shao Yu went up and knocked on the door.

Tuk, tuk, tuk.

No one answered.

Shao Yu knocked a song patiently, rhythmically, lightly and evenly. ←Well, it's related to the two lyrics he thought of just now, you know =v=

Yan Feng couldn't help but say: "There won't be anyone, you ......"

The door opened.

Yan Feng consciously shut up.

The one who opened the door was a young man with deep eye sockets, who looked listless and weak when he spoke: "From other places? A well-informed, sarcastic or self-deprecating smile appeared on his face: "Come in." ”

Several people looked at each other, but still followed.

When the young man walked around, Shao Yu found that his tightly wrapped body was actually thin and pitiful, and when he walked up, the fabric was empty, the outline of his hands and feet was as thin as a bamboo pole, and the whole person seemed to have been sucked dry by something.

No wonder it's different from the revealing clothes in Hiko's memories.

This world is vast and sparsely populated, as long as you want, you can always make the house very big, like a house in the previous life like a house is very common here, if a person lives in a house only 100 square meters, most of it is because of their laziness, it is not excluded that some people like small space.

The house of the youth is the normal standard of the wilderness.

On both sides of the road leading to the main hall, there are ponds, flowers and trees, which may have been a good sight in the past, but now because of the neglect of the owner, or crazy growth or loss of vitality, one is yellow and the other is green, and in the hall, the tables and chairs are covered with thick dust, and as soon as the white flag enters, he is choked and coughs.

The young man did not mean to apologize at all, and sat down on a dirty chair.

As soon as he opened his mouth, he said astonishingly: "I'm going to die tonight." ”

"The City Lord's sleeping Gu was killed by me," a hearty smile appeared on the young man's face, "I have to die." ”

Shao Yu sat opposite him with a calm face: "Can you elaborate on it?" ”

The young man glanced at him in surprise, his gaze stayed on his face for a long time, and then he said, "If you are like this, let the city lord see it, I can't predict what will happen." He obviously saw through the disguise on Shao Yu's face, but he didn't say much, leaned back, added the weight of the whole person to the back of the chair, and raised a puff of dust: "Anyway, I'm going to die, you can ask whatever you want." ”

As Yan Feng knew, Dusk City was a city where city lords changed very frequently, and the longest record for a city lord to last three months was the longest record, no matter what kind of wisdom he had, and how good the direction he could take this city to, as long as he didn't have strength, it was nothing.

And the fastest way to get strength is Gu.

The unique geographical location and climatic conditions of Dusk City, as well as the various shallow shoals and swamps and woods on the outskirts of the city, naturally grow a lot of poisonous insects, and the method of refining Gu, there are people on the street who set up stalls to sell, it can be said that everyone knows and everyone knows, the method is very simple, but to be strong, it takes a lot to pay.

The blood of hatred, the bones of fate, the heart of resentment...... The things that Gu needs are strange, sometimes very simple, and they can be found on the side of the road at any time; Sometimes it's complicated and you have to make a decision about whether or not to give up a part of yourself.

A year ago, a man wearing a mask defeated the then lord of the castle and ascended to this position.

Everyone thought that he was just a flash in the pan.

Not really.

The city lord defeated one challenger after another, or rather, sucked up the challengers one by one.

"And you?"

"It's a fluke that didn't die, it's just a matter of surviving."

The young man coughed twice and said, "The City Lord's Gu is very powerful. He fell into the memory: "At that time, I only saw his shoulder cracked, and a red ribbon-like insect flew out, which looked very hideous and terrifying, and fell into darkness in front of me, and time seemed to slow down, and I could feel the flow of blood and life, and then I passed out, I must have been carried out." ”

"I know you want to ask me why I didn't die, it has something to do with my Gu, but that time it died for me, and now there is no one who can replace me."

"The position of the city lord has gradually been secured, and many people are expecting him to lead a new city of dawn, but he has begun to build the Babel Pool."

"You haven't heard of it, have you?"

"I don't know where the city lord got the news, saying that this Tongtian Pool can eliminate all kinds of diseases and increase cultivation, and he devoted himself wholeheartedly to it, and I don't know how many magic weapons and spirit stones were forcibly requisitioned in the city, and those who resisted were imprisoned, it is said that someone escaped and almost destroyed Tongtian Pond, and then the city lord directly killed the rebels, his violence and thirst for killing became more and more strict, but no one could stop it, and later, the whole city was reduced to the city lord's word, he set the rules than those who lost the battle to suffer from poisonous insects, no one dared to disobey, Now he wanted to put people to sleep at dusk, and no one dared to disobey. ”

The young man coughed twice: "That's pretty much it." ”

Shao Yu groaned: "Does no one know the identity and past of the city lord? ”

"This is also my strange place," said the young man, "the chaos in Dusk City is notoriously chaotic, just ask a few nearby cities to know, few people are willing to come, and the people here are also very xenophobic, if there are strangers, everyone will soon know." ”

"But no one knows the origin of the city lord, and he wears a mask, so it's impossible to tell the difference."

"There are also speculations in private, saying that the city lord is lucky, and he has refined an unprecedented powerful Gu worm, but he can't completely control it, his face is ruined, and his body is not as good as before, so he can only pin his hope on Tongtian Pond."

Shao Yu described what happened to them at the fork and said, "Is that person the city lord's subordinate?" ”

The young man laughed: "The city lord has no subordinates. ”

"The people who want to follow him have all died at his hands, listening to your description, that person may not be able to stand the rule of the city lord and escape, but he obviously can't get back his original self, and can only go further and further on the road of self-destruction."

"When you are miserable, you often want others to be more miserable, which is a very common mentality."

When he said this, the young man's tone was not one of approval or opposition, but a completely objective statement that stood outside of his position, and the feeling of indifference, which, combined with his thin body and pale countenance, gave one a sense of ominous, death.

Yan Feng said: "What is that formation?" ”

"You spent five days on the road? With that person's level, no matter what the formation is, it should be invalid. ”

Tuk, tuk, tuk.

There was a knock on the door.

The moon has risen.

There were no birds, no insects, the surroundings were as quiet as a tomb, only the knock on the door insisted on resounding throughout the room, and Bai Qi hesitated: "Is it someone you know?" ”

The youth did not speak.

He smiled and closed his eyes.

A life was lost.

At this time, Shao Yu and the others still didn't know his name.

The sound of the knocker pulling.

Yan Feng had a sharp feather between his fingers, and lowered his voice: "Don't you understand, it must be the city lord who came at this time!" He said that the city would take his life! ”

The hair on the white flag's whole body exploded.

"Meow !!"

Pipsqueak screamed and cowered at his master's feet, eager to get smaller.

Xiao Ge held the flying sword that appeared in his hand at will, and sweat was oozing from his palm.

Shao Yu muttered, "Why don't we hide first?" ”

"Good!"

"Where are you hiding?"

"Daddy!"

"Meow!"

Shao Yu: ".................."

All of a sudden, they all shrank around me and what are you doing=. =

After a while, the bird*2, the dragon*1, the dog*1, and the cat*1 are freshly baked, staring at the small ones with big eyes.
