Chapter 256: The Shadow of the Ghost City
Unlike the birds and flowers in the Yaochi faction, the small town on the other side of the Nu River also has a yin wind blowing during the day, causing passers-by to take a detour.
Lin Zixin and the others crossed the river at noon, and they felt a strange aura in front of the city gate. The two glanced at each other, and both saw the heaviness in each other's eyes.
Pushing open the old gates, they stepped into the city. There are no people walking in the city, and the abandoned stalls and shelves on the ground seem to speak of the bustle of the old place.
Walking through the streets, not far away is a paper windmill that has fallen to the ground, and the wind is blowing and whirling. Lin Zixin seemed to see a child running through the street with this windmill, and blinked his eyes again, leaving the windmill spinning alone.
"I wonder if Senior Brother Xu is already here?" Lin Zixin said worriedly.
Yueli held her hand and said softly, "Maybe Mo Changfeng's people have also arrived." He looked around and felt the breath of a human being, but he couldn't find anything in his senses.
For a moment, the whole town became quieter, and the gate behind them creaked shut. The two of them suddenly felt that they had entered the net laid by the other, and maybe everything in front of them was an illusion. The two of them continued to move forward, and there was no need to worry too much about it, they had come to check the fog of the city.
There was silence all around, and only the footsteps of the two could be heard. The spiritual fire in their bodies is at the critical point where they are about to penetrate their bodies, and when dealing with filth, fire is always the most spiritual.
Walking to the center of the city, the divine sense sensed that there were more things that could move, first a few fat mice, and then the shadow of a human. They don't plan to expose their spirit beasts here, they want to solve it by seeing the light, who knows who will be in this city. The two of them were extremely careful. When they saw someone coming, they stopped and stood in the middle of the street. Wait for this person to come closer.
It was a hunchbacked old man with a boy in his hands. The little boy wore a red belly and was born with a tiger's head. The old man was so hunched on his back that he couldn't see his face. Coughing incessantly as he walked, the little boy thumped the old man's back with his little hands.
It was originally a picture of kindness and filial piety, but Lin Zixin and the others couldn't laugh, because in their perception, they couldn't detect the anger on their bodies. Behold, though they were walking, they were as dead as they were.
Lin Zixin immediately turned on the different pupils, and the invisible pupils instantly turned into dirt. There was no sign of a heartbeat in her eyes. She immediately said, "There is an abnormality, don't let them get close." ”
"It's coming!"
The momentum on the two of them was immediately raised to the best, making way out for the old and the young to go first.
When the hunchbacked old man walked to Lin Zixin's side, he suddenly raised his head and smiled strangely at her, opening his mouth to spew out a mouthful of black mist. Lin Zixin had been on guard, and the Red Lotus Fire immediately overflowed, blocking the fog out.
Looking at Yueli again, she was entangled by the boy, and the boy screamed and opened his mouth to bite him, and the teeth in his mouth immediately became longer. Flashing with a cold light. Ignoring the ice sword in his hand, he pounced straight forward.
Just as Yueli's sword was about to come to him, a mouthful of black mist erupted from the boy's mouth, and then disappeared. The demon fire on Yueli's body was awakened, and the dark blue light was all over her body, and the black mist was completely isolated.
The appearance of these two black fogs changed the environment of the entire town. It was noon, but it was getting darker and darker, and it was midnight when I couldn't see my fingers in Zuihou.
The old man and the boy were gone. Lin Zixin and Yueli were close to each other and found that the buildings here were different. The shops on both sides of the street are gone. I saw a black shadow running towards them.
The spiritual fire on them is like a light in the night, attracting all things that pass by. There were human footsteps and animal screams, which made the two of them feel that the scene at this time was in line with the name of the ghost town.
The shadows grew from far and near, and the speed was getting faster and faster, and Zuihou couldn't even catch them with their eyes. The two of them let go of their senses, and in a moment they exchanged hands with these shadows.
"Dang!"
Lin Zixin's Ruoshui and a pair of claws touched each other, and she was shocked in her heart, is this still a human hand? Looking at the person who fought with her, it was a middle-aged man, dressed in ordinary clothes, but his face was hideous and his fangs were exposed.
If the water cuts it down, one hand will be cut off. The man didn't know any pain at all, he still grinned and pounced on her, his claws couldn't be used, he bit with the teeth in his mouth, as if he had a deep hatred with Lin Zixin.
Lin Zixin didn't know what kind of means this was, and he didn't know if this was an ordinary person, and he couldn't bear to see him so miserable. She put away Ruoshui, turned a long knife with the red lotus, and with a vigorous swing, the person disappeared in the flames of the red lotus. The moment he disappeared, he seemed to see his relieved expression.
Looking back, Yueli also used demon fire to melt a person, and for a while, these weirdos stopped one after another.
"Zixin, they can't be called human anymore, as if they have been controlled by someone with a secret method." Yueli frowned.
Lin Zixin looked at these people and replied, "Are they ordinary people in this city?" ”
"Very likely."
"What then, do we want us to destroy them with our own hands? This, this is so cruel! ”
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard daxiao from somewhere, and the laughter came very suddenly and arrogantly.
"Did you escape? Even if they weren't solved, they would have died violently a few days later. And your breath has been remembered by them, and they will not give up until they tear you apart. You'll have to do it if you don't make a move, hahahaha-"
"Who is so vicious?" She whispered.
But no one answered her. As soon as the whistle blew, the strange men rushed forward without fear of death. The two of them can only do what the voice said, and they have to do it without making a move.
As the two of them burst out of their spirits, there was no one standing around them. As soon as the voice appeared, the two of them locked on him deeply, and at this time, they all rushed towards a certain direction as fast as lightning.
After they left, the black fog around them slowly gathered again, and the fog seemed to move back and forth like a spirit.
A private house was destroyed by Yueli with an ice sword, and the people in the house seemed to be waiting for them. Lin Zixin Dingqing saw that this was the person who gave her the jade slip when she carried out the mission of the Demon Domain that day.
"You are really Mo Changfeng's person, so you are also a ghost from this city called a ghost city?" She snapped.
The man smiled and said, "I said a long time ago, you can't stay." Unexpectedly, Mo Ruhai, a bastard, failed to succeed, but lost his life in vain. But. Today is the time for your death. ”
He waved his big hand and said, "Do it!" ”
As soon as these words came out, Lin Zixin and Yueli felt a strong mana collide. After a few breaths, it was silent again. Just when he was wondering, Xu Mo's voice came.
"Mo Rushan, are you talking about them?"
Xu Mo threw the two people in from the outside, and there was no breath of life anymore.
Mo Rushan's heart was shocked, he didn't expect this to be the result, and immediately had the idea of escaping. But the person opposite him was not a vegetarian, so he started with Lin Zixin and the others.
She and Yueli both took out the strongest means to blast at each other, a fire and ice entangled with each other, turning into a fierce dragon-shaped energy and rushing towards Mo Rushan.
Mo Rushan is retired. I didn't expect their attack methods to be so strong, and they immediately appeared high and low. He hurriedly took out a piece of armor shield, and his spiritual power entered it as if he didn't need money, and reluctantly took the blow.
But the next moment he turned sluggishly, and a slender sword pierced into his vest. Mo Ruhai resolutely wanted to let the Yuan Shen escape from this place, but what was waiting for his Yuan Shen was an orange fire, and the Yuan Shen disappeared into nothing without making a sound.
The shield lost control and fell to the ground with a thud.
Xu Mo withdrew the thin sword, and Lin Zixin saw that it was a sword as thin as a bamboo leaf. She flicked her fingers except for the bags of the three people on the ground. All of them were covered by red lotus fire, and in the blink of an eye, the three of them were no longer in the world.
Xu Mo said with a smile: "Senior sister's fire is really powerful, Uncle Jinhua is not wrong." ”
Then he flipped his palm again, and a misty creature appeared on his palm. It's like a lump of rice cakes. It looks slimy.
Xu Mo said to it: "Don't you take back the fog in the city?" ”
"Wow wow!"
After the misty creature screamed twice, the black mist in the air entered its mouth like a whale sucking water. It didn't take long for the black fog to disappear. and the sun in the sky was revealed.
Lin Zixin and the others were amazed. Yueli asked, "Brother Xu, what is this?" ”
"This is a rare fog beast. At first, it was Mo Changfeng who received the news of the fog beast. Instead of taking the beast from the city, he used the black mist to create a ghost town; It also made all the people stranded in the city into living zombies. The mind is locked and left at their mercy. Xu Mo explained.
"They're really unscrupulous, are they just here to deal with us?" Lin Zixin said angrily.
Xu Mo shook his head and said, "They have been setting up this bureau for several years, presumably for Uncle Jinhua, but later Uncle Jinhua's affairs exceeded their expectations. Only then did the news of the ghost town be released, and he turned to shoot at a few of our juniors, maybe they were trying to see the dagger! ”
turned to Lin Zixin and comforted: "Senior sister doesn't have to feel guilty about the people in this city, they are already living dead." Ordinary people are fully activated to the potential of their bodies, and even if they don't die at that time, they will die in an even more miserable way in a few days. It is also haode to free them early. ”
Lin Zixin frowned and said, "Senior brother, Zixin understands. ”
Xu Mo said to Yueli again: "Brother Mu, take care of your junior sister." The scenery here is still good, you can walk around, and it will save the elders from making a fuss about your affairs. ”
"Brother Xu, don't worry, the two of us will go out to practice together, and we won't return to Taihua in a short time."
Xu Mo nodded and left, and said before leaving: "The internal struggle within Taihua is still going on, if there is some gossip, there is no need to believe it, Senior Brother Fei and I are not vegetarians." I'll go back to Taihua first, farewell! ”
Lin Zixin and the others watched Xu Mo leave, and then slowly walked out of the city, and everything in the city had returned to normal. It's just that there is no trace of human breath, and it has completely become an empty city, hoping that the departed people will come back and let this city rejuvenate.
"Say, where are we going?" After leaving the city, the two walked aimlessly, and they saw that they were on the Nu River. Lin Zixin asked.
"Experience, you can go anywhere. How about we go all the way to the Endless Forest? Just so that you can go and see the ancestors of them. ”
"Okay." (To be continued......)
