Chapter 406: The Living Dead
"This, it can't be, right?"
In front of Chen Yun's eyes, a small town appeared.
Outside the town is a farmland, sparsely sparse inside, and a few figures can be seen. This scene is like Tao Yuanming's paradise, could it be that this is really a place similar to the Peach Blossom Spring?
Slowly walked over with his feet raised, through this piece of farmland, and walked in the direction of the town. However, when he walked near the farmland, Chen Yun found that there was not any grain in the farmland, but the sparse grass outside, that is, the Misty Soul Grass.
"Misty Soul Grass?" A trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, and he didn't know what the people here were so many mist soul grasses for. However, Chen Yun then suppressed the doubts in his heart and continued to walk forward slowly. As long as you get to the small array, I believe that these doubts will be slowly solved.
But the man who was working in the farmland suddenly looked at him. The sudden appearance of the stranger was very dazzling in their eyes. After seeing Chen Yun, the eyes of these people were first a little shocked, and then angry.
Yes, in their bodies, Chen Yun felt a raging rage. I don't know why they were angry, but I think it was because of the arrival of a stranger, who disturbed their quiet and peaceful lives.
The arrival of outsiders, for such a paradise, may bring not only news from the outside, but even killing and conquest. The world outside is too dangerous, maybe they just want to live their own peaceful life.
Although these people seemed to be very angry, they surprisingly did not stop Chen Yun's steps. In this way, the two sides looked at each other. Chen Yun slowly approached the town in front of him and stepped in.
It's not a big town, it's not so much a small town. It's not so much a small village, and even the size of a small village is a bit reluctant. If it weren't for the tall walls surrounding this place, Chen Yun would have thought it was a village.
The sparse figures on the street walked in a hurry. When Chen Yun stepped here, these people reacted the same way as the people outside after seeing Chen Yun. First consternation, then anger. Surprisingly angry.
"Dangerous?" In addition to anger, Chen Yun even suddenly felt a strong killing intent. These killing intent come from the people around them. It's very faint though. But they were still captured by Chen Yun, these people want to kill themselves?
Chen Yun stood quietly at the entrance of the town, while the people in the town slowly surrounded him. More and more people gathered, and it was roughly estimated that there were more than 100 people. Chen Yun even felt. Isn't it that the whole town has gathered here?
"What are you doing standing here? Give me all back! Suddenly, a deep voice came, and everyone was startled when they heard this sound, and then slowly evacuated for these people who came up.
From the crowd, an old man slowly walked up. As the old man's figure approached, everyone moved out of the way. It can be seen that the status of this old man is extraordinary, and everyone here is very respectful to the old man. Even fear!
Walking to Chen Yun's side, the old man smiled at Chen Yun and said, "Guests from afar." I'm the mayor of the Misty Ghost Town here, and welcome to you! â
"Hello mayor" also smiled at the old man, Chen Yun said quietly, "I got lost in the misty valley, and I arrived here in a daze, but I didn't expect that there would be such a place in the misty valley." I'm sorry to interrupt your lives! â
"It's okay!" Shaking his head with a smile, the mayor of the town seemed very kind, and slowly said to Chen Yun, "The people in our town have always been hospitable, nothing to disturb. We welcome guests to come to us! â
"Welcome?" Feeling the gazes cast around him, how could Chen Yun feel that he had bad intentions, and even some murderous intent, so he was welcome? This posture was clearly trying to rush up, rushing up and tearing him apart.
"Don't get me wrong!" As if sensing Chen Yun's suspicions, the mayor smiled and said, "The guest in our town and the guest who has not been far away for a long time has arrived, and everyone is a little uncomfortable after seeing the guest. â
"And the last time a distant guest arrived, it almost brought us a catastrophe, so the people in the village are very repulsive to the people outside! The fresh face of the guest also makes them a little resistant to you, and I hope the guest will not be surprised! â
"I see, no wonder!" He nodded as if he had suddenly realized, and then Chen Yun said quietly, "Mayor of the town, don't worry, I won't mind." I just hope you don't blame me for bothering me! â
"No, no, we actually know that most of the guests from afar are kind. Like the one last time, there are only a few people. However, I hope that the guests will not publicize our situation here! â
"I understand that there is nothing in the Misty Valley, and there will be no one here!"
"It's best if the guests can think that!" Nodding with satisfaction, the mayor took Chen Yun and walked inside, "Guests, please come in, I will prepare a room for the guests." Guests can stay as long as they want, and if they really want to leave, we will never stop them! â
"Then thank you Mayor Mare!" Following behind the mayor, Chen Yun felt a cold swish behind him, and this very bad feeling had been invading Chen Yun. Although the mayor was hospitable, Chen Yun still felt that this place was very strange, and there was a strangeness everywhere.
Not to mention that there is such a small town as ZĂ i in this misty valley, and this town is very small, and it is estimated that there are only 100 people in the town. To put it mildly, it is a problem in the succession of ancestors, and it is estimated that it will not be long before close relatives can only get married.
And the people here don't mean to look at him badly. That look was like facing a person who was about to die, without any emotion. When you look at it, you can't help but feel hairy all over your body.
The most important thing is that since he was here now, the golden Gu worm that had been lurking in his body began to be restless. It's as if I've encountered something, and I'm a little eager to try it.
"Guest, this is my home, no one has been here for a long time, so it's a bit dirty. I'm going to clean it up first, and you're going to stay here for the time being in Misty Ghost Town! â
"Thank you, Mayor, I'll clean up here myself, if you need to be busy, just go ahead!" After sending off the mayor, Chen Yun's smiling face immediately turned cold, and his heart was even more suspicious.
Although the mayor tried his best to be kind, Chen Yun felt a trace of anger from him. The mayor is definitely not a good person, and the same is true of the townsfolk outside. Chen Yun couldn't help but start muttering in his heart, what kind of existence is this damn misty ghost town?
Just in case, and also to get to know the villagers in the town, Chen Yun opened the book of life and death. Now that Chen Yun is a judge, his control over the book of life and death has reached a new height. I can barely control and use the Book of Life and Death.
Flipping through the book of life and death, Chen Yun could see the basic information of everyone in the town, as well as the experiences of these people recorded in the book of life and death over the years. As for what will happen to them in the future, fate is impermanent, it is not something that Chen Yun can predict now.
However, after just reading their basic information, it is estimated that you can understand these people. Whether they are sincere or false, you can have a preliminary judgment. When the time comes, it will be war or peace, and Chen Yun will be able to prepare early.
Turning over the book of life and death and carefully probing it, Chen Yun's heart trembled suddenly, and his face was incredulous, as if he had seen a ghost. With a face full of disbelief, he increased his divine power and tried again, but the information on the book of life and death remained unchanged.
Sitting down dejectedly, Chen Yun took back the book of life and death with some surprise. According to the records in the Book of Life and Death, these people should have been dead for hundreds of years. More than 100 townspeople, all of whom are supposed to be dead.
However, through the book of life and death, Chen Yun also found that there were several people in the vicinity who had not died. And the living people in the town, according to the records of the book of life and death, are the people of the Cangqian faction who disappeared into the misty valley. It seems that at this point, the people of the Cangqian faction are not lying. It turned out that their people were really lost in the misty valley.
Not only that, but the information about their lifespan recorded in the book of life and death has been blurred, which proves that they could die at any time. To put it bluntly, such a person belongs to the kind of person who dies before the end of his lifespan, and he who dies in vain, and he is also a ghost who dies in vain after death.
Fate is impermanent and not completely unchanging. Something unpredictable in life can make a huge difference in people's lives. Maybe one step to the sky, maybe it sinks.
Just like Chen Yun, in the past, his fate was estimated to be like that of all living beings, living an ordinary life. And after getting the book of life and death, Chen Yun's fate trajectory has undergone earth-shaking changes, and he has become no longer ordinary. So fate is determined by heaven, but it is not absolutely immutable.
And these living people here, it was originally destined that their lifespan would not be so short. However, something happened in the Misty Ghost Town that changed their fate, and they could die early at any time.
A weird town, and a weird bunch of the living dead. In these people, Chen Yun didn't even feel the death qi, if he didn't turn the book of life and death, Chen Yun wouldn't even know that they were dead, but he would just suspect that they were plotting against each other.
But the mayor here is so polite to him, what is he trying to do? Could it be that you want to torture him to death slowly, just like the masters of the Cangqian faction in the town? (To be continued......)
