Chapter 366: Walk into the Tulou
In late August and early summer, the weather has changed from slightly cool to slightly cold, especially in the middle of the night, and it is easy to feel the cold.
Zhu Tian rescued the old man in the cage, and the old housekeeper of Hodder, who had just woken up, looked at Zhu Tian in front of him after taking a look at the surrounding situation, and then fainted again.
Zhu Tian felt that the two escapees could take care of the old butler Hodder, so he let them carry him into a tulou.
As for why the old butler is here, everything will have to wait for him to wake up and ask again.
At this time, the other slaves in the field fell silent, because the demons that enslaved them had been terminated by them.
It was as if they had lost the direction of their lives, some of them stood there stupidly, and some of them sat on the ground. Unlike before, they have something called hope in their eyes.
Zhu Tian knew that they were just a little confused. The Gold Swallowing Beast is still in their tulou, and something terrifying may happen in a while, and having these people here is also in the way. So he shouted to the bewildered slaves, "Get out of here, get out of the cottage, get out of the darkness, go out into the dawn!"
"I know! You've been here for years, and some of you may have been slaves for ten years! What I'm telling you is! Don't be afraid of the outside world, because it's warmer anywhere outside! No one enslaves you outside! No one beats you up! No damn rituals! Everything is brand new, you don't need to mine ore anymore, you don't need to take up arms anymore, you will have a hopeful future!" Shouting this, Zhu Tian groaned for a moment, he knew that it was useless to just say these empty words, he had to point out the direction for this group of mute slave laborers:
"In the south! there is a beautiful place called the town of peace, where there are hospitable townspeople and generous and selfless lords. If you've forgotten your hometown, then you can find the security station there and let a chief of security named Amanda arrange your future life!"
Zhu Tian suddenly felt that he had the characteristics of engaging in pyramid schemes, and saying such words was bound to ignite the fire of hope in their hearts. The reality is the same, Zhu Tian saw a few people standing up from the ground, and there seemed to be a tendency to get out of the cottage.
At this time, he was a little expecting what kind of expression Amanda would have when she saw such a group of slave laborers pouring into the garrison.
As for whether Amanda can arrange the future of these people, it is not something he can manage. It's better to live outside than to live here as a slave labourer. Zhu Tian didn't have the sense of responsibility to take over their future lives, and they all said it with the attitude of letting them fend for themselves.
But...... To his secret horror, he watched as everyone began to walk towards him!
What does that mean?
Just as his face was full of doubt, Frank and the nasty were on guard. He saw the slave who most wanted to go to him kneel down on his knees and make a gesture of putting his hands on his chest.
One, two...... And then everybody.
Everyone knelt in front of him!
What does that mean?
"Master, these people seem to want to follow you. Frank said in a deep voice, "Only when you are facing a king or a nobleman of great power will you kneel and caress your breasts, and there is also a case where they are willing to be enslaved by you." ”
Zhu Tian suddenly thought of the picture of Frank swearing allegiance to him, which seemed to be the situation in front of him at that time.
He took a powerful mercenary as his younger brother, and that was because he had some special purpose. For example, let Frank be a thug, and pour cold water on the cardinal when he is fine. Zhu Tian couldn't help but secretly wonder, what was the use of such a group of mutes to him?
I have to say that most of the things Zhu Tian did were for utilitarian purposes. Accepting a group of mutes to take them in, he really didn't know what the use was.
He fooled this group of slave laborers out of the cottage, and naturally had his own purpose. On the one hand, after driving the slaves away, he can sleep peacefully and carry the fruits of their efforts, boxes and boxes of gold coins, into his dream space. On the one hand, he really wanted to prank the greasy fat man of the security chief Amanda.
Moreover, the Gold Swallowing Beast is still hiding here, and I don't know when it will come and roar. It's easy to imagine that this group of obviously malnourished guys could easily be wiped out.
Stretching out his hand and making a move out of thin air, the nobleman's cane dozens of meters away flew into his palm.
Everyone saw this strange scene.
After pondering for more than ten seconds, Zhu Tian didn't give them a good look, so he pointed out of the cottage. Said coldly: "Get out!"
Cold and unforgiving, Frank and the nasty ghost behind him are captured by the momentum of the voice!
In fact, at this time, Zhu Tian sensed something strange in his body: a large amount of undead qi was flowing out of his body and flew towards an earthen building.
There are gold-swallowing beasts and wandering warriors in that earthen building!
The wisps of undead qi were not released by themselves, but were pulled by some kind of force and sucked out of thin air!
It's a Gold Eater!
The other party can use some kind of connection to drain the undead qi from his body! Not only now, but when he woke up in the early morning, he found out about this situation.
Comparing the undead qi on his body to the clear water in a wooden barrel, the gold swallowing beast was extracted from the bucket drop by drop at the beginning, Zhu Tian guessed that it should rely on the undead qi on its body to survive.
It was also through this connection that Zhu Tian found the location of the Gold Devouring Beast. In the early morning, the other party's draw was not obvious, and Zhu Tian also felt that he could bear it, otherwise he would not have let the other party lose himself like this.
And now, the other party is no longer pumping drop by drop!
This situation shocked Zhu Tian's heart and guts! At such a speed, he was drained in less than a minute?
For the current Zhu Tian, the aura of the undead is the foundation of survival!
While strongly controlling the rapid loss of undead qi on his body, Zhu Tian kicked the slave in front of him. He controlled his power and did not directly kick the other party and vomit blood. "Get out of here," he shouted to them, "you servile fellows! I don't want your allegiance!" shouted angrily, kicking another slave more than a meter away.
Due to the leakage of a large amount of undead qi, Zhu Tian was fighting against the other party's power in the dark, so at this time, a large amount of undead qi was locked around his body! This directly caused the temperature within five meters of Zhu Tian's body to begin to drop rapidly!
The slave workers who knelt near Zhu Tian felt a very terrifying feeling, as if the black mamba had been resurrected and began to roar in his ears! A great fear spread! The slave workers closest to Zhu Tian finally ran in the direction outside the cottage with their big mouths and distorted faces because they couldn't stand the terrifying feeling.
Humans are like this, no matter how enslaved they are, but in the end they are still flesh and blood human beings.
Watching a few companions run out of the cottage, finally someone couldn't take it anymore, they got up from the ground and joined the fleeing army.
Frank and the nasty ghost glanced at each other, for them, they had a certain understanding of Zhu Tian, and at that moment, they obviously felt that Zhu Tian had changed as a person.
At this time, the temperament of the whole body changes.
The fleeing crowd disappeared in front of their eyes, and the gloomy look on their faces all day was slightly relieved. He set his sights on the tulou.
At this time, he couldn't help but take the initiative to enter the tulou! Because Zhu Tian found that he couldn't resist the exploitation of the undead qi on his body by the Gold Devouring Beast at all!
Moreover, he could feel that the other party's needs were getting stronger!
What's going on?
What are these two guys doing with the Wandering Samurai Gold Swallower!?
Taking heavy steps, Zhu Tian walked towards the tulou distributed on the left side.
"Don't go in. He didn't look back, and coldly instructed Frank and the nasty ghost, "Big Blackfoot is still guarding the door of the cottage, find it, and don't let it be accidentally injured by those slaves." He walked into the tulou.
Frank hesitated for a while, but finally obeyed Zhu Tian's explanation. The nasty ghost follows Frank and walks towards the darkness.
Beyond the earthen building, only a huge bonfire was blazing. At this time, the life of the bonfire was also nearing its end, and after a few crackling sounds and a few puffs of green smoke, it reluctantly took away all the light around it.
Everything returns to darkness as if nothing had happened.
......
Dimmy, damp, steep. This was Zhu Tian's initial impression of Tulou.
There was no light source here, and the air smelled of damp decay, and he walked up, but not a staircase, but a steep slope!
If he hadn't seen one room after another that had been artificially excavated, Zhu Tian almost thought that this was a damp cave where monsters lived.
Inexplicably consumed a lot of undead qi, he went up the slope, and when he reached the second layer, he already had a sense of weakness.
This feeling is no different from a large exertion of mental energy - dizziness and brain swelling. He knew that if he didn't stop the Gold Eater's endless demands, he would sooner or later fall into a deep sleep.
Walking up this slope was more strenuous than walking the gravity stone steps of the Tower of the Dead!
It was violently consumed all the time! beads of sweat the size of beans appeared on Zhu Tian's face.
"Pique, you control your body!" Zhu Tian said weakly, "I must fight it with all my strength!"
3rd Floor......
4th Floor......
He walked with great difficulty, and at last a forty-five-degree slope appeared in front of him, and on top of the slope was a huge wooden door. The wooden door is black, and the lock on it has been broken. At this time, the wooden door was closed, and Peake could not see the situation inside.
At this time, he finally figured out the design principle of the tulou!
Because the rulers here wanted to transport the wooden crates full of gold coins to the highest fifth floor, the steep staircase was convenient. All it takes is someone pulling a rope tied to the chest, and it's easy to transport the gold coins.
Without having time to think about it, Pique controlled his body and climbed up.
"Wait!"
When he came to the door, Zhu Tian stopped Pique, only to hear him say slowly:
"I must tell you one thing, I am already weak, and I may fall into a deep sleep at any moment. Before the wooden door, Zhu Tian's voice was trembling, "I want to know what your state is like now?"
"I also felt weak. Peake replied.
"If we both fall asleep at the same time, then we will suffer. ”
"So what should I do?"
"Get out of here!" Zhu Tian made a decision, "Go back to the Tower of the Dead to replenish the state first!"
Hearing this, Pique slowly took a step back on the steep slope, in fact, he thought the same as Zhu Tian, facing the Gold Swallowing Beast in such a state was no different from looking for death. But in the time when he took a step back, the wooden door in front of him was directly blasted open by an invisible force!
Just as Pique was in complete shock, a powerful force suddenly slammed Pique into the door......
