Chapter 166: The City of the Dead

The black smoke was heavy, thick, like solidified earth, and no matter how hard you struggled to break it off, the black smoke remained solid.

This is like a cage of black smoke, although the light smoke is shuttling through the air, and the picturesque Qiqi and Xuanya can feel the fresh air, but they only feel that their chests are particularly suffocated, as if they are pressed against a heavy stone, which makes people breathless.

Poetic and picturesque in the space where you can move, moving your feet, looking around, not missing any opportunity to go out.

"Picturesque, don't look at it, sit down and rest for a while, maybe something will change later." She sat down with a picturesque little hand.

Shiruhua frowned slightly, raised her hand, and let her five fingers pass through the black smoke, and suddenly, a coolness that penetrated her skin made her heart tremble, and she hurriedly withdrew her hand, and said in a low voice:

"It's so cold here." The black smoke is also very strange, only the hand can pass through it, but people can't, and it seems to be blocked by a wall, no matter how hard you try.

"Sister Hehehe, you're so smart, you know how to withdraw your hand at the right time." A crisp and innocent child's voice swirled in the black smoke, and the voice seemed to come from all directions, making people unpredictable.

Shiruhua raised her eyebrows, glanced at Xuan Xuanya, and saw the other party nodding, and knew in her heart that this child's voice was the child's voice they heard on the day He Liyu disappeared.

"Sneaky, why don't you dare to show up?" Poetic and picturesque, the cold and implicit light of the eyes pierced through the black smoke, wanting to see through that end.

"Sister, it's useless, don't waste your efforts in vain, as long as I don't want you to see through it, you can't see through it"

"Sister, as long as you promise me to stay and play games with me, I will let you leave the black mist, how about it?"

"I want to know, what happened to the big brother you left behind?" Shiruhua asked worriedly, not showing too much concern, for fear of bringing unnecessary trouble to He Liyu.

"Big brother, he's very good, he plays games with me every day, I'm very happy, but it's a pity, it's just that there is a lack of a big sister, you stay with me, I'll let you meet the big brother, okay?" Tong Yin asked expectantly, and a wisp of red suddenly flashed in the black smoke, and the speed was very fast, and the other party had disappeared before the naked eye could catch it.

Shiruhua took a long breath, rubbed his eyebrows, and said in a deep voice:

"Let me see him first, okay, as long as he is fine and unharmed, I will promise you to stay, how about it?"

Xuan Qian and Qi Qi glanced at Shiruhua in surprise, then shook their heads, Shiruhua smiled bitterly, made a silent gesture with their hands, and then looked around the black smoke with cold eyes, trying to find out the suspicious clues.

"Big sister, you're lying to me, I can sense the calculation in your heart, this is not good, it's really bad, at the beginning, the big brother didn't think so much when he promised me, compared to the big brother, it's good or bad, I don't like the big sister anymore." The soft children's voice suddenly became very sad, and she still confided in loneliness.

Shiru raised the tip of the thrush, and was surprised that the other party could see through what she was thinking, in order not to make the other party resentful, Shiruhua lowered her voice and spoke softly:

"Big sister is just anxious, I want to see big brother, you must not be angry, okay?"

Tong Yin didn't respond for a long time, Shiruhua waited silently and still didn't wait for the other party to reply, and asked worriedly:

"Is the other party angry?"

Shiru shook his head and sighed:

"I don't know, but no matter what, I'm going to find Heli."

Qi Qi took a step forward, his thick brows furrowed into a hill, and said in a deep voice:

"Girl, I can't feel the breath of a child, as if the other party has no body."

Shiruhua and Xuanya were shocked, their eyes looked at the thick black smoke, and Shiruhua said coldly:

"If you don't have a body, it's an underworld."

"Not bad!" Qi Qi nodded with a heavy heart.

"You're very smart, you can tell by the sound that I'm an underworld." The other party's children's voice gradually turned into an old and deep voice in the hearts of Shiruhua and others.

Shiruhua turned around, closed her cold eyes, and looked at the black smoke, gradually sensing the source of the sound.

"Hee-hee. Big sister, are you really not going to stay and play with me? The child's voice sounded again, and he opened his eyes picturesquely, and the corners of his lips were strangely hooked, exuding a frightening smile.

The figure flashed, and his hands flashed through the black smoke like lightning, and suddenly, the red light flashed, and Shiruhua hurriedly withdrew his hand, his face changed slightly, and at the same time, the figures of Xuan Ya and Qi Qi flashed one after another, grabbing at the edge of the black smoke.

However, that wisp of red is as fast as lightning, it is not a human speed that can be caught at all, Shiruhua snorted coldly, the palm of his hand swelled with red light, raised his hand and slapped at the black smoke, and suddenly, the red light rushed into the black smoke, jumping in it like a spiritual snake, looking for that touch of red.

"You are bad people, I will tell my big brother and let him kill you." The angry children's voice turns into an old, dull voice at the end.

"Demons, dare to pretend to be ghosts." Poetry is picturesque and cold, stepping heavily under his feet, heavy as forward, the ground suddenly slowly cracked like a spider's web, and the red light chasing in the black smoke was forced to a red point of light is the moment the light skyrocketed, like a magma eruption, rising into the sky, breaking through the thick black smoke, a red light straight into the sky, at the same time, the ground cracked, wisps of black smoke came out of the cracks.

"Ahh A mournful cry echoed through the air.

The red light shot straight into the sky, as if breaking through the closed black smoke, and suddenly, the bodies of Shiruhua and Qi Qi shook for a while, and at the same time that the ground under their feet was all cracked, they also fell sharply downward.

"You hurt me, I let my big brother beat you. Whining.. The crying children's voice with grievances and sadness lingered in the ears of the three of them for a long time.

Shiruhua gritted her teeth, not letting the fierce wind blow away her crumbling body, the light on her body flashed, and a white light enveloped the three people who fell, and also blocked the strong wind that blew the gangue.

Falling to the ground, looking out through the white light, they landed in a jungle shrouded in faint black smoke, and there was silence all around, only the cold wind blew through the jungle, and there was a whining sound between the trees, and the sound was terrible and bleak.

"Where is this? Why don't you feel a little breath of life? Qi Qi frowned, and exhaled impatiently.

Poetically put away the white light that shrouded the protection, stepped on the dry pine leaves, and suddenly, a puff of smoke came out from the soles of his feet, and when he looked down, it turned out to be those fallen leaves, as long as they were touched, they turned into black smoke and dissipated into the air.

In the eyes of everyone, the green branches gradually turned gray, and in the blink of an eye, the whole tree turned gray, and a fierce cold wind blew, and the gray tree gradually cracked, turning into black smoke in the blink of an eye, floating and rotating in front of everyone's eyes, and then merged with the fierce cold wind and drifted into the distance.

"These trees. . . In fact, they have long since died, but for some unknown reason they remain in their pre-living state, and as long as they come into contact with a living body, they will turn into ashes in the blink of an eye. Picturesque looking at the lush jungle and muttering to herself in horror.

It's really a spectacle, the green jungles all over the mountains, the cold wind blows, they stand still, and the grass and wild flowers all over the ground, fluttering in the wind, crumbling, no one will believe that they have no signs of life.

"It seems that there must have been a change here, in order to maintain the previous scene, people with advanced mana use mana to keep everything unchanged, I really don't know, who can do this." She looked at everything and sighed softly.

They carefully bypassed all the green grass and wildflowers, so that their recklessness would not destroy what had been here.

Suddenly, a red shadow flashed in front of them, and the three of them paused, staring at them on guard.

"It should be the kid just now!" Qi Qi looked ahead and spoke coldly.

"We'll wait and see what happens, and if he's really too much, I don't mind teaching him a lesson." Shiruhua stared coldly ahead, and walked forward along the sheep intestine path.

"Everything is weird here, we need to be careful." The blue eyes of the girl emitted a cold blue light, and she stared around vigilantly, not letting any accident hurt the picturesque.

Qi Qi followed behind the two, and also watched on guard to prevent someone from sneaking up behind.

Ahead, I saw a pergola standing in the distance beside the sheep intestine path, with three or four tables and stools for the guests to sit on, and there were people sitting there drinking tea and chatting.

The three of them stared at each other and walked towards the pergola, Shiruhua frowned slightly, and a feeling of being seen through suddenly rose in her heart, she turned her eyes to look around, but she didn't find anyone peeping at her.

The three of them walked to the front of the pergola and stood still, looking up, people in twos and threes were just drinking tea and chatting and resting, the owner of the shop was still boiling water with his back to them, even if they made a slight noise, it did not make these people look up, and the owner of the boiling water was still facing away from the three people, boiling water!

The three of them chuckled in their hearts, took a few steps back in unison, stabilized their minds, stabilized their steps, Qi Qi lowered his voice, and said uncomfortably:

"Could it be that these are also dead people, but they just maintain their movements before they were alive."

Shiruhua and Xuanya's heart was beating, it was hard to believe that these people in front of them were dead, but they really didn't feel the slightest vitality in these people, Shiruhua seemed to verify what he thought, walked to the tea drinker, stretched out his cold fingertips and gently pressed on the tea drinker's arm, in the shocked eyes of the three people, this person was like the big tree, slowly turned gray, cracked a little bit, turned into pieces in the blink of an eye, floating in the air, a fierce cold wind blew, and the pieces drifted into the distance with the cold wind.

"Oh my God, these people are really dead, it's so weird here." Qi Qi let out a long breath, and he was very uncomfortable with this breath.

Shiruhua withdrew his hand, not daring to touch other people again, and suddenly felt pity for these people in his heart, how many years later, they still remain until now, just to maintain a breath of life, just to sense their existence.

The shopkeeper's water has been boiling and steaming, but the owner's hand has been holding the guard of the kettle, and for I don't know how many years, he has kept this posture, as if telling Shiruhua and the others what they were doing before they died.

"Let's go, in the future, don't touch these people again, since they have stayed until now, they must have the idea of staying." Poetry said lightly, Xuan Ya and Qi Qi also nodded, barely suppressing the sorrow that suddenly surged in their hearts, who ruined this place?

Along the way, they saw many people, animals or monsters that kept their postures unchanged, whether they were flying in the sky or running on the ground, all of them gave the three of them a bleak and sad despair, this is a dead city.

Although there are people who have animals, animals that fly in the sky, and all kinds of trades, they do not breathe, they always maintain the same position, no matter how long it takes, how long it takes.

The picturesque three people shuttled through the city, walked through one by one, did not touch any one again, shuttled here, they felt everything that happened here, and their hearts couldn't help but mourn for these people.

"Here, where the hell is it? Why haven't you heard of it? She looked at everything strange in front of her and muttered to herself.

Picturefully looking ahead, in front of him was a city wall surrounded by clouds, and inside, wisps of black smoke rose into the air, churning and curling in the air.

"Maybe, there, can give us the answer!" Picturesque raise your finger forward.

"Let's go, I really want to know, where the hell is this? Why does it give me a very familiar feeling. Qi Qi raised his eyes to look there, and his eyes flashed with emotion, and his hands behind his back were quietly clenched into fists, with a nervousness that he didn't know.

"The closer I got there, the stronger the feeling in my heart, and the more fierce the familiarity became." Poor Qi walked past the two of them and walked towards the towering city wall.

Shiruhua and Xuan glanced at each other, neither ignoring the worry in each other's eyes.

They entered directly through the gates, and no one dared to touch anything, but when they entered the castle, they were still shocked by what they saw.

Tens of thousands of soldiers stood in the square, they were all in armor, holding weapons in the square, the black smoke in the sky was emitted from them, tens of thousands of smoke gathered into a black cloud floating in the sky and shrouded the castle.

Shiruhua opened his mouth, and his shocked mood did not react for a long time, he walked along the edge of the city wall, and saw the lifelike faces, as well as the eyes that exuded a domineering light, his heart was deeply impacted, and a wave of excitement from the bottom of his heart made Shiruyi and Qiqi pause, and their eyes swept over these people carefully.

If it weren't for their unblinking eyes and calm and undulating chests, the three of them would really think that these were living people, living people standing in front of them, and there were thousands of troops.

Shiruhua held out her finger and stopped a centimeter away from the soldiers, she really wanted to touch them to see if they were alive.

"Girl, don't disturb them, let them defend this city to the death!" With sadness in his eyes, Qi Qi quietly looked at them one last time and took the lead in walking forward.

Retracting his fingers, he took a long breath and walked towards the palace in front of him!
