Chapter 128: Prisoner Cart Escort
"Grandma, what do you see that?" Suddenly, Xiao Zhu exclaimed, and a curtain of light was sprinkled on the top of the stele, like a thin veil, delicate and soft.
The light curtain flowed, the dust on the stele gradually dispersed, but the handwriting on the stele was still blurry and difficult to identify, and an earthy yellow halo shot out, illuminating the way ahead, and a huge pass gradually appeared under the illumination of the halo.
This is a big pass, standing on the earth, magnificent, inlaid with two huge demon heads on both sides, angry eyes, sharp teeth, cold and fearful atmosphere filled the pass, a black and yellow road from the stone monument, straight to the pass ahead, dry bones paved on the road, countless ghosts wandered twice on the road, the eerie ghost aura is terrifying.
"Grandma, what should we do?" Xiao Zhu worriedly wrapped around Ye Qing's neck, and the roots under his body writhed uncontrollably, this place is really weird, more terrifying than the blood river, the huge stone tablet almost seriously injured Ye Qing, and now there is this eerie and terrifying ghost-like road, it seems to wait for Ye Qing and Xiao Zhu to go up.
"Let's go. Ye Qing said in a deep voice, angry outside his body, protecting Xiao Zhu and himself, without waiting for Xiao Zhu to refute, he stepped out and walked on the Loess Ancient Road, they had already come here, if they wanted to get out, they could only continue to move forward.
"Babble"
"Babbling ......" The ancient road is not long, except for the ghost calls of those so-called ghosts, there is no special place, Ye Qing walked towards the big pass step by step, extremely cautious, after experiencing the terrorist attack of the trolls in the blood river, Ye Qing did not dare to be careless, and only dared to take a step after probing forward angrily.
"What is this?" Suddenly, Ye Qing stopped, right at Ye Qing's feet, several strange runes flowed, emitting a faint light, Ye Qing bent down and wrapped his hand with anger, there was a case of a stone tablet in front of him, he didn't dare to take risks, everything in this place couldn't be dealt with carelessly.
Filled with anger, Ye Qing's hand touched the few strange runes, and the light on the runes gradually became stronger, and at the same time, in addition to the earthy yellow halo released by the stone tablet, a little silver light appeared on the entire loess bone path again, like stars lighting up the entire ancient road.
On Ye Qing's side, one had a rune flickering, and the two communicated together, actually forming a strange formation, condensing at Ye Qing's feet.
"What is this?" Ye Qing was shocked, a thick dead air suddenly appeared around him and Xiao Sun, which was purer than the dead air on the bank of the Blood Flower River, and the pitch-black dead air seemed to have consciousness, converging into black shadows, like ghosts, wandering around Ye Qing, Ye Qing condensed his life, and the silver-white light was aimed at a black shadow.
"Huh" anger and death qi corrode each other, and after the black shadow was briefly angered by a trace of silver light, the silver light was swallowed, and the huge black shadow actually became a little bigger, wrapping Ye Qing in the center, it seemed that he was regarded as food, and wanted to preserve it well.
Ye Qing couldn't help frowning, looked at the black shadow in surprise, put the little bamboo shoot into his arms, and the vitality in his body flowed, forming a light curtain, sticking to Ye Qing's body surface, Ye Qing sped up his speed and moved towards the big pass, this black shadow didn't know what it was, it was very ominous, Ye Qing felt that he couldn't stay on this loess ancient road for a long time.
"Whew. The yin wind gusted, finally, Ye Qing stepped out of the ancient road and walked into the pass, the light of the stone tablet gradually dissipated, and the black shadows trapped on the ancient road gradually disappeared in the unwilling howl, they seemed to be inseparable from the ancient road.
"Wow, it's finally out, it scares me to death. The little bamboo shoot gasped heavily, it didn't even dare to breathe when it was on the ancient road just now, for fear that those black shadows would pounce on it and eat it in one bite.
Ye Qing looked at the inside of the pass curiously, when he was on the ancient road, he and Xiao Zhu couldn't see anything except the pass, but now it is different, behind the pass is a city, blue bricks and green stone are built into houses, gray stone and loess are paved on the ground, this is a big city, you can't see the edge at a glance, Ye Qing roughly estimated that this place is only afraid that it is not smaller than the town desert city, or even much larger, but it is different from the town desert city, there is no trace of people on the street in front of Ye Qing, and the whole city does not make a sound, as if there are only two people in this city, Ye Qing and Xiao Sun, like a ghost town。
Ye Qing walked slowly towards the city with the bamboo shoots, and the countless bluestone-paved avenues exuded an ancient atmosphere, as if this city was eternal.
"In the middle of the night, watch out for the candles. Suddenly, a footstep appeared, and two figures appeared around the corner of the street walking towards Ye Qing, tall, dressed in military armor, holding a gong and sledgehammer, constantly ringing.
The sound of the gong was getting closer and closer, and two figures had already appeared in front of Ye Qing, these were definitely two strong men, nine feet tall, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, one with a copper ring on his nose, and one with a head horn, and the two walked to Ye Qing's side step by step.
"The living?" The big man with the top horn at the top of his head spoke, his voice was like a Nine Shadows Yellow Spring gushing up, and the chill was piercing, as if he had prepared for Ye Qing to enter the city.
Ye Qing looked at the two strong men in front of him in surprise, he didn't know what to answer for a while, he could feel how strong these two people were, far from being the current Ye Qing's opponent, obviously his body was full of gloomy dead energy, but Ye Qing could indeed feel the extremely rich blood qi in their bodies, which was a symbol of physical cultivation to the extreme, Ye Qing's body also had it, but it was far less rich than these two people, it was conceivable how powerful these two strong men were.
"The living, leave with me" The strong man with the copper ring on his nose spoke, his tone was more gloomy than that of the other strong man, he didn't seem to care about Ye Qing at all, Ye Qing looked at the two strong men vigilantly, he didn't dare to run away, the strength of the two strong men was bottomless, with Ye Qing's ability, if he escaped, he might fall in the hands of the two in an instant.
"The living quickly leave with us. The voice of Jiuyou sounded again, the sharp-horned man stared at Ye Qing coldly, shook the gong in his hand, and walked back, the strong man with the nose ring whistled, and a prisoner cart of unknown material appeared beside him, the prisoner cart was not big, surrounded by ironwood, faintly emitting black light, and the rich death qi eroded Ye Qing and Xiao Bamboo Shoots, which was the cage for the prisoners.
"Go up. The strong man with the nose ring spoke, holding a gong sledgehammer in front of Ye Qing, his tone was firm, and with a slight point, he motioned for Ye Qing to enter the prisoner car, not giving Ye Qing the slightest chance to escape.
Ye Qing said in a deep voice, the breath emitted by the strong man with the nose ring suppressed Ye Qing, with Ye Qing's current strength, he couldn't resist at all, Xiao Zhu hid in Ye Qing's arms and trembled, it was already fed up with this place, since they came here, they had encountered too many strange things, the white bones of the boat, the huge octopus, the bewitching stone tablet, and now they met two strong men who were unreasonable and were going to press the two of them into the prisoner car when they met, which was really desperate.
Ye Qing frowned, and walked into the prisoner car step by step, he had no strength to resist, and it was a great luck to be able to save his life.
"Squeak, squeak. The prisoner cart traveled on the bluestone avenue, the wooden wheels made a screeching sound, and under the traction of two strong men, the prisoner cart soon crossed the city and walked onto a wide plain.
The plains were open, the earthy weeds were swaying in the wind, a great river was rushing down, and the waves were crashing, and countless dry bones were smashed to the shore by the river, shattering to the ground.
There is also a bridge above the big river, the bridge body is made of white bones, turned into three layers, the upper layer is paved with red stone, covered with red carpet, like the way to the sky, gorgeous and abnormal, the middle layer is made of loess, and the loess ancient road that Ye Qing entered the pass is no different, and the lower layer of the bridge is black mud, bubbles continue to bubble out of the mud, and suddenly the bones of an unknown creature emerge, and after a few struggles, it sank into the mud.
Just next to the bridge, a long line lined up on the side of the bridge, all the creatures with empty eyes and no owners, and lined up in a long line in a daze, wanting to cross the bridge, a bewitching body, a woman with charming eyes like silk sat at the head of the bridge, with a few bowls of soup in front of her, and every creature who wanted to cross the bridge had to drink the soup from her before crossing the bridge.
The two strong men looked serious, pressing Ye Qing's prisoner car forward, a huge creature blocked their way, their eyes were cold, the gongs and drums were thrown out, and the huge creature was thrown into the river by them, and it sank to the bottom of the river before even screaming.
The prisoner car bypassed the long line at the head of the bridge, creaked and came to the bewitching woman, and the two strong men saluted the enchanting woman, and as soon as the gongs and drums sounded, the creatures who were squeezed out of the line behind the prisoner car quickly crawled to the end of the procession, not daring to resist at all.
Ye Qing glanced at the woman in front of her, the woman was dressed conservatively, a gray cloth covered the graceful body, but she couldn't hide her charm at all, Yin Hong's lips squirmed, and the tip of her crimson tongue licked on her lips, showing a bewitching posture, which made people intoxicated, Ye Qing didn't dare to be careless, and the anger outside the body was condensed, the two big men who escorted him before had left, but judging from the performance of the big man, the bewitching woman in front of him was only afraid of being more terrifying.
The bewitching woman moved lightly, the black light flashed in her hand, and a black key was caught in her hand, the enchanting woman smiled faintly, the black key gently pointed to the prisoner car, and the prisoner cart opened instantly, she didn't seem to be worried that Ye Qing would escape at all, after opening the prisoner car, she turned around and sat on the stone chair behind her, and the bowls of clear soup in front of her were still steaming, and it seemed that it had only been cooked for a short time.
"The living are common names. The bewitching woman waited until Ye Qing walked out of the prisoner car, smiled faintly, and a black book appeared in her hand, which recorded rows of fine and ancient words, and at the same time, wisps of black light flew out of the black book, and the black light swirled and danced in the air, gradually turning into characters, constantly hovering over Ye Qing's head.
The black book in the bewitching woman's hand was lightly clicked, and a black character rushed towards Ye Qing's eyebrows, the black light was dense, and the rich dead air was in stark contrast with the anger outside Ye Qing's body, Ye Qing didn't know what he would encounter if this black character was punched into his body, but from this rich dead air, Ye Qing could also feel that this character was by no means something beneficial to him.
