Chapter 13: The Abandoned Garden and Old Knowledge

(I read the messages in the book review area every day, but I don't have time to reply one by one, I'm sorry, I can only try to answer.) )

Compared to the narrow, messy and filthy areas along the way, this place known as the haunted building is much quieter, not even the occasional barking or whispering of dogs, and there is no half of a human figure in sight, only a faint glimmer of light in some corners and corners.

This silent silence and coldness are enough to make the hands and feet of the faint of heart and feet chill and stop. In Li Jie's induction, it is completely different. When he got here, he could already rely on his perception and action, and walked into the depths of the ghost building unhurriedly.

But this time, it was no longer as uninhabited as before, and there was no hindrance.

Actually, this sentence is not very accurate, because until this moment, Li Jie's heart has been as sure as a mirror, this area called the ghost building is the gathering place of the demons in the manhole, at least one of the important gathering points. In this kind of realm surrounded by wolves, you can almost think of it with your toes, most of the human beings will not exist, even if a few daredevils occasionally break in, they will quickly disappear, and it is not wrong to call it a no-man's land.

Correspondingly, there are naturally non-human beings.

"Peng!"

A dull sound sounded, and mud and stones splattered.

A burly man as tall as a mountain revealed his body and jumped directly from the darkness of an abandoned high-rise building next to him, the height of the three-story building was nearly ten meters, but it seemed as easy for him to just step down one step. It was only because his body was so large that he fell on the thick grass that he made that sound.

The haunted building area is not all concrete. Everywhere was covered with knee-high weeds, gray-black soil and abandoned masonry everywhere, and at this moment, at the man's feet, two clear shallow pits appeared on the ground, and even half-broken gray bricks, showing the strong force of this leap under the attraction of gravity.

Li Jie, who is one hundred and ninety centimeters, is tall enough, but this man with a short hair is more than half a head taller than him. The figure is directly reminiscent of those humanoid beasts in the American professional wrestling ring, and it is even thicker.

"I'm Otto the Garrison. Are you here for today's secret meeting? ”

The burly man asked angrily, and when he saw Li Jie, who was far thinner than himself, he did not have the slightest arrogance.

Because in his superficial perception, the young man with an ordinary appearance in front of him couldn't see the depth at all. Although the breath is not strong, it is deep and deep, as if it is hidden by layers of mist, and it is difficult to see the whole picture. He has encountered a lot of similar situations today, and they are all demons who are not weak, and they may not be able to afford to provoke them. He was well aware of his duty, just in case a human with no eyes strayed in, and he couldn't care about the real kind.

Li Jie noticed the attitude of this inferior demon. For a stranger who invaded the territory, he didn't have the slightest vigilance, but took it for granted. This is by no means a normal situation, which can't help but make his heart move, and he immediately calmly replied:

"That's right."

"Keep going."

Otto, the Great Han, nodded, and without even asking a second question, he leaped towards the abandoned building with a agility that was extremely disproportionate to his burly body, and after a few climbs on the vertical wall surface, he flashed into a broken gap. Retracted into the shadows.

This routine situation couldn't help but make Li Jie even more curious, and the other party obviously received an order. Just confirm your demonic identity and give it a release. There are only two possibilities:

One is that there are no restrictions on the entry and exit of demons here, and it is a borderless land.

The second is that there is a large-scale gathering today that allows other demons to enter, and it was even an event that was originally convened for all the demons in the vicinity.

Compared with the term "secret meeting" mentioned by the previous garrison Otto, it is probably the second type.

After the small episode, Li Jie continued to go deeper, walking alone between the abandoned buildings late at night, there was almost no light, the cold wave and fog filled the surroundings, hazy and quiet to a little eerie, only his clear breathing and footsteps could be heard, it was indeed easy to make people think that they had strayed into a ghost, which was probably the reason why it was called a ghost building.

But in Li Jie's perception, a highly dense and powerful aura had already appeared, the number was beyond imagination, just a rough estimate, it could be determined that it was more than three digits, even if most of them were low-level demons, it was enough to make people stunned.

These breaths were obviously all concentrated in a small area, and as he got closer, Li Jie could clearly see that between the seven or eight adjacent buildings in front of him, there was a large deserted clearing, overgrown with weeds and thriving trees, and in the center of the clearing was a small abandoned fountain and a circular rusty guardrail surrounded by flower beds.

It can be seen that it is probably an abandoned community garden from a certain period.

At both ends of the garden clearing, there were two groups of people standing in Jingwei, each with more than twenty in number, and the aura was also the most powerful group, while more middle and low-level demons were hiding in the surrounding buildings, silently paying attention to the below, showing a bystander attitude.

Although Li Jie's footsteps did not stop, his pupils contracted violently.

He saw a familiar face that he definitely hadn't expected.

Among the two groups of people on both sides of the confrontation, the figure of a tall woman was extremely eye-catching. There are not a few female demons present, who are slender, hot, charming, or pure-looking, all of them are first-class beautiful human faces. But in front of this tall figure, it is completely incomparable, and it is dwarfed and ashamed.

It is a kind of cold and lonely temperament in the bones, like a swaying snow lotus on the top of the eternal ice field, arrogant and cold, indifferent to all beings.

This woman's appearance is not a very beautiful type, the facial features are mixed together but there is a different kind of delicacy, the more I look at it, the more I feel that it is beautiful everywhere, a little more cumbersome, a little less incomplete, and the beauty is just right. The most important thing is that her unique temperament is absolutely unforgettable.

The last time Li Jie saw each other, it was at Marbury Beach Villa in Los Angeles, and although he was among humans, he was still alone. And on an occasion like today's gathering of demons, she has become a well-deserved focus, with more than twenty demons above the median rank around her, as if she were the leader, and the stars stood at the forefront of the team.

This woman, whose human name is Wuzi, obviously has an extraordinary status. At this time, she was paying most of her attention to the people opposite, but when Li Zhuo was now in sight, she glanced indifferently and withdrew her gaze and stopped paying attention.

It seems that she didn't recognize Li Jie, whose appearance has changed drastically. (To be continued)
