Chapter 450: The Walking Corpse
The atmosphere at the dinner table was heavy as if he had entered the gravity room, so dull that it was a little difficult for people to even breathe, even so, Luo Xin was still leisurely drinking tea, his eyes swept over everyone's faces again and again, full of patience, the wolves and Luo Jin were eating the food without hesitation, and the whole table, except for the heavy breathing sound was the sound of the wolves and Luo Jin's chopsticks touching the plate and swallowing.
Time ticked by, Xue Yan finally spoke, but the voice of the exit was rough and dry, like an old man on the verge of dying, not angry, "I was born in an ordinary family in the Dragon Teng Continent, although it is ordinary, but there are also a lot of people, the family is in business, but the people who buy and sell are spiritual plants, so the friends in the family are some cultivators. I am the son-in-law, the third in line, because I lost in the confrontation with the eldest brother, so according to the family rules, I moved out with all my line, all the way to the south, into this ownerless continent, in fact, this is not called a continent, just a small world, but isolated from the world, there is no dispute. At that time, this place was not called 'Blood City', but 'Mizong City', which was the only city suitable for human habitation in this ownerless continent, and the only place where the power of the Yuan Infant Stage sat in the array, as long as you entered here, you would no longer be harassed by the surrounding demonic beasts and some orcs, and you would also ensure your safety to the greatest extent. At that time, I realized how lucky we were to go all the way to not even encounter a vicious demonic beast. Yes, this is a world infested with beasts, legend has it. The city was founded by the ancestors of the city lord, and then many capable people took refuge, and it has developed to this huge scale. Because it is indeed too peaceful here, our family also settled down here after discussion and started our old business...... Until one day, a mysterious man came to the city, and that person was dressed in a black robe. There was no extra embroidery thread on it, and he couldn't see his face, and he couldn't see his body bones. Even the voice was so ethereal, after he appeared, he lived in ...... But one day, the demonic beasts and spirit beasts of this continent suddenly went berserk. There was a tide of beasts that were devastated. And Mizong City was their target, that night......" Xue Yan fell into that blood-colored memory, his expression was pale like a dried corpse that had not been sucked dry, without a trace of popularity, and his cheeks were sunken as his lips opened and closed. There were several moments when it came across as a dried corpse rather than a living person.
ββ¦β¦ With the last bit of consciousness, I opened the defensive array that I had gained from my ancestor when I left the family. Then it fell into darkness, when I opened my eyes again. What I saw was the man in a black robe, he saw me wake up, and without saying a word, he handed me a black palm-sized porcelain bottle, and asked me to feed the relatives around me to eat, otherwise it would be a dead end, forced by the desire to survive, I distributed the medicine alone, and then poured down the black liquid that the man in black robe gave me one after another. After making sure we had all eaten a lot, he was gone, never to be seen again, and when we walked out of the gates again, we saw the walking dead outside the city. β
Hearing this, Luo Xin had already frowned, how did the black-robed man manage to peel off everyone's skin, but let them survive normally, and not see his own terrible? Why did he do this? And why keep these people alive? What are they fed?
"What's wrong with you?" His gaze fell on Xue Yan's pale face, Luo Xin's eyes were full of suspicion, and he only felt that he had fallen into a strange whirlpool.
"We don't cultivate, but our cultivation has been rising, but we are no longer rising when we reach the peak of the Yuan Infant Period, stuck at this level, neither rising nor falling, these hundreds of years have passed, we continue to reproduce, and the cultivation of our children and grandchildren is already close to the same front, as for the others, there is no difference from ordinary people, but there is one point, we can't leave this blood city, when we step out of the city gate, it is when we disappear, before, my youngest son was because he was unwilling to be buried in this blood city for the rest of his life, So when we stepped out, when we chased him, he was in front of our eyes, watching him turn into a blood mist, and his soul was gone, and since then, there has been no one who dares to take risks, and later, almost two hundred years later, the black-robed man reappeared, and he told me that if we want to escape this curse, then, we must serve the immortals who have entered this town again, and we must not defect for life, otherwise we will be collectively devastated. Speaking of this, everyone's eyes are already burning, as if they see the hope of life, and see their own free and beautiful future.
Luo Xin was stared at with goosebumps, and he almost couldn't even maintain a leisurely posture, serving the lord? Forget it, she still has a lot of things to do, if she is allowed to take this group of people, wouldn't she be annoyed to death, in modern words: where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, what a big piece of rivers and lakes this is~
Holding her forehead with a headache, Luo Xin pondered, if she didn't agree, these people didn't know what they would do, after all, the words of that damn black robe had made these people look forward to it for hundreds of years, and his current identity had risen to the height of the Statue of Liberty. Sky...... It's a terrible feeling to be a savior.
But if you say yes...... Not...... Thinking of those pictures, Luo Xin felt that he wanted to die again and go back to Earth.
Hundreds of yuan of infant masters stopped, Luo Xin asked himself if he couldn't escape, and he couldn't hide.
So, "I need to think about it!" Dropping a sentence, Luo Xin fled for the first time in his life.
In the living room, Luo Jin and the others continued to eat, as if they hadn't seen the other people looking at each other, Xue Yan looked deeply at the back of Luo Xin leaving, a touch of fierceness crossed his eyes, and then he lowered his head, and when he looked up again, he had already recovered the respectful look he had before, while several children and his wife had different faces, but they all had one thing in common, that is, it was not good-looking.
It turned out to be a blood city, and naturally it has its differences, the biggest difference. It's that there is no night here, forever day, and compared to the Xue family who are tired and resting. Those people outside the city are never tired, repeating the same words, the same actions, and the same things every day, which is also a fact that Luo Xin only learned after inquiring.
Sure enough, it was weirdly ruthless, but when they came, in addition to encountering some dangers in the cave. It's peaceful here, as if nothing happened, and the calm before the storm is the current situation. The rest of the time. Luo Xin has never stepped out of the aspect, as Luo Xin, who has already opened the valley, naturally he has never stepped out of the door again, a few people in a group. Only Yuxin tirelessly guards the door of Luoxinfang every day. The others followed in Luo Xin's room, and no one knew what they were busy with.
During this period, Xue Yan and others came to invite them many times and sent people over to their relatives, but they were all sent away by Yuxin's indifferent words.
Time passed little by little, and Luo Xin and his party were busy in the space preparing for a possible battle, while the Xue family outside was already about to go crazy.
In the splendid study, Xue Ren, the third son of the Xue family, was about to walk out of a groove in front of his father's desk, and his eyes were scarlet. The beard is unkempt, and the clothes are even more disheveled. It could be seen that he was really too anxious, and his father and the other brothers were frowning and doing more stools. Compared with the acute son of the eldest brother, they are more calm and cautious.
"Ren'er, this matter, for the father, I think, act rashly, that woman and those few entourages don't seem simple, we can't let anxiety occupy our minds because of small losses, you know, this matter, if it doesn't work, the consequences are not for you and us to bear. You go back and rest for a while, you haven't rested for ten days. As he spoke, he looked up at the homemade timer on the desk, Xue Yan's eyebrows were full of exhaustion, how could it be that he had not cultivated to repair his body because of long-term anxiety, so that his body was extremely tired, but at this time, he really didn't dare to act rashly. It's not like no one has been here before, but none of those people have passed through that for the rest of their lives. Ghost Pupil said, "I can't stand them tossing a few times and I can't die anymore, but this time, these people are uninjured and in good spirits, and, except for the woman's infancy, but somehow suppressed the cultivation in the Jindan period, the cultivation of other people, he can't even feel it, even the maid, he also inexplicably feels panicked, it is these people who make him jealous, but he looks at the girl's horse, so the inexplicable sense of threat is even stronger, which is also an important reason why he has been so patient and immobileγ
People are always too cautious about things they can't fathom, and they don't dare to take a step forward.
"Xinxin, those people outside, I'm afraid it's not good." Luo Jin fiddled with his favorite cannon barrel as he said, the clear barrel body in his hand reflected an expressionless face of the Chinese character, looking mighty and serious, in front of Luo Xin, he would only look serious when he talked about business.
"So what?" Popping up a few tricks in front of Juding, Luo Xin replied casually, "There are so many partners in our space?" How could they be afraid of those lifeless pseudo-humans? β
Not bad, pseudo-humans! The situation described by those people is true, but there is only a part of the truth, they have concealed it, those outside the city are already like that, how can they, the human beings in the city, who have so many jewels, be spared? They are also the same as those outside the city, they have been stripped of their skin, but the only difference is that they have not lost their minds, and the skin on their bodies now comes from nowhere, but it is definitely not born of themselves, this is found through the occasional fingertip skin touch, Luo Xin, and the deliberately created anger on their bodies is only a drug generation, of course, this is not to say that she is powerful enough to distinguish between anger and death, this is what Yuxin perceives, their bodies, death is not much worse than Yuxin, But it's not the same type as Jade Heart (Kuiba), for now, it can be described as the walking dead.
She didn't know what their purpose was, but it certainly wouldn't be a good thing.
"Big brother, what level is the lowest cultivation level of the beast clan in the space now, do you know?" Thinking that she might be used this time, Luo Xin began to ask about the cultivation of beasts in the space for the first time, although she used to refine a bunch of beast Yuan Dan every once in a while and hand them over to Luo Jin for distribution, but she never asked about the management of beasts in the space. The space she lived in was also isolated by the formation, and the beasts couldn't take a step beyond the thunder pool.
"The lowest is the peak of Warcraft, but the number is very small, less than twenty." For the cultivation growth of beasts and beasts, Luo Jin has always tested and recorded it himself, in case one day, when the heart needs to use these beasts and beasts for help, the low cultivation becomes cannon fodder, you must know that the beasts and beasts that the heart receives are all with good potential, and it would be a waste to be cannon fodder.
"Well, my cultivation has grown a little." Luo Xin was quite satisfied with the situation of the beasts, but the eldest brother's hesitation at the end made Luo Xin look a little surprised, "But what is there that the eldest brother is puzzled about?" β
"Xinxin, the spiritual energy mist in the empty house has become a little thinner."
"What?" Luo Xin sat up straight from the recliner in an instant, and a trace of heaviness and shock appeared in his eyes, "What's the matter?" β
"Some time ago, the Duoduo you brought back seems to be advanced, maybe because it is in the space, so, there is no vision of heaven and earth, but the spiritual mist of the space is all sucked into the body by the silkworm chrysalis, and the time is enough to maintain the human world for three days, since then, Duoduo has been in a state of cultivation, but the spiritual mist in the space has been thinned by half, these, the beasts and beasts also feel it, moreover, those spirit stones you collected in the space, Whether it is a spirit stone crystal or a top-grade spirit stone, I have already used it to replenish the aura. In other words, Luo Xin's net worth, except for those countless materials and ore treasures, has not a single spirit stone.
One day in the space is equal to ten years, that is to say, Duoduo has absorbed the aura for thirty years just by advancing once, and it is also the kind of absorption speed like a hungry tiger pounceing on food, and the aura is insufficient, and the quality of the spiritual plants that grow will naturally be greatly reduced, which is an unbearable loss for her. Thinking of this, Luo Xin's facial muscles twitched violently, she didn't mean to blame a lot, but she didn't expect that this little god fruit spirit would be so depleting aura, the spiritual mist in the space is the benchmark of space existence, if she comes here several times in a row, it is estimated that the entire space will collapse, it seems that she can't continue to be like this before, otherwise one day she will sit and eat empty, after going out this time, she will definitely find the entrance of Longteng, where the spirit stone deposits should be called rich, At that time, it can be used to maintain the wear and tear in the space.
Luo Jin accompanied Luo Xin to walk around the space, and also greeted his old friends, seeing that although everyone got together, they did not lose the fighting nature of the beast clan, survival of the fittest, Luo Xin was relieved, no matter what else, as long as he did not deprive the beast clan of the wildness, it can be regarded as no disadvantage.
Compared to Luo Xin's mind, the beasts are not suitable for this, entering here, not only absorb more aura, pure, but even better, there are batches of cultivation pills, this forest is also the original territory, is there a better life than now? Therefore, although he did not recognize the Lord, in everyone's hearts, Luo Xin has long been a general existence of faith. Therefore, the place where Luo Xin passed through was full of beasts roaring, so excited, it was almost like the beast tide coming.
"Big brother, I'm going to do it this time. Upgraded a batch of pills, you help me distribute them to the beasts with excellent talents, this time, we are afraid that we are facing a fierce battle, and those walking corpses outside may have hole cards that we can't think of. Recalling the temptation and search she had traveled all the way, and the few places she saw where the yin qi was at its peak, Luo Xin's brows were about to condense into waves, she was really afraid of anything, she was not proficient in a lot, but she didn't dabble in very little, and these yin things happened to be not what she was good at. (To be continued......)
